I'd like to congratulate Alfred as the winner of 3CB Tournament #52.
He ran away with it this time in a field that usually couldn't handle two strong threats. This was just the right time to bring Steel Cage back to continue its 100% record in 3CB on TMD. Congratulations!Banned list:

Sorry about the wait - I thought I'd have rather more time than I ended up with (and no motivation - sorry, but that's what an essay and a 5 mile run can do to you!
). They're up now, at any rate. Interesting mix of decks, and a fair few to calculate this time.
Please send second decks immediately, as I'll be away for the next week. If they're not needed, I'll let you know.
Tom
