Eric Hurd and AesophDarkfable met in the finals.
Eric, playing a Kordukopia, had beaten Aesoph, playing UltroForge, in a super close match in round 1.
Aesoph offered Eric the tournament win and the ticket to GenCon in exchange for the booster prize.

I didn't play, but had fun watching rounds 1 and 4. There were lots of great close matches. I think that everyone had a good time.
It was a small tournament due to a startling lack of local players and weather keeping away some of our regional regulars.

An Aspect of Moradin/Dual Shield Guardian band and an LG Tordek PORC band rounded out the top four.

In addition to the bands mentioned above there was another UltroForge, a Forgepriest/Red Hand, a CE Thrall band, , and a CG PORC. I don't know the placement after the top four.

The main lesson that I saw was that having a Firegiant Forgepriest in your warband is not an automatic win.
