It was a great tournament and the finals were really exciting and hard. One of the better finals I've played. Lots of props to Petri for arranging the tournament as well as providing an excellent tournament report (as always).

There is really no big explanation about the rautakanki. We just kind of agreed that it is phonetically the most finnish word there is. Also me, Isak and Randal did not play the same deck, we just named them in honour of the finnish language.

I think Otso pretty much nailed it for finals analysis, I agree and I have nothing to add. Huge respect as well to Otso, who's biggest achievement this tournament is easily overlooked. Three GWs (or iso rautakanki(ja?)) in the preliminaries with an AUS weenie is extremely impressive and what gave him the tournament win.

Actually
Kolme/three "isoa rautakankea"...

Issa difficult and not that logical language.

Haha, that was pretty far off! You can expect more faulty finnish next year. Maybe some new phrases even, if you're lucky!

To quote immortal words of A. Anka:
Jävlä bögland!

I'll do my best to participate in Swedish Championships this year and you can count on me mangling some of your language...
