If it ad been a proxy tournament I would have assumed more Ichorid, more Workshop based decks and less Fish.  I would  have probably played a similar deck but would have Leyline in the sideboard, and may well have dropped the Old Men of the Sea.

I knew that there was only going to be one Ichorid deck so gambled on not playing it and took the Leylines out.  I still had the grunts to attack slower graveyard recursion.

The Vintage championships were an open tournament.  There were 21 or 22 players who played, and I think most of them were powered.

I played a fish deck to third place, loseing to Lee in the semi finals.  I practice with Lee and Jim (1st and 2nd) so all in all it was a good day for team Hemel.

One factor that could have influenced the lists is that there are very few vintage tournaments in the UK and so people had decks assembled for quite a while without much chance to play them.

I think the TPS player got a game loss for misusing a Necropotence.  He looked at the cards drawn and then drew a few more looking at them inspite of a verbal comment from the judge beforehand that he had ended hios turn by looking at the cards.

I had a good time at the tourney but the late finish was stupid.  My QF finished at about 4am!  The prize support was also very poor.  I received 4 boosters for  losing in the QF.  There was another  Classic tourney the next day with 12 players, I finished 2-2 and won 4 boosters there.   I don't understand how a side event can be giving out so much more per player than the Nationals.
