Sorry for the delayed tourney results, my Holiday weekend was filled with cookouts, beer, and Cube drafting. Well, without a due here we go!
On May 24th The Hero Zone in Sandusky Ohio hosted another vintage tourney extravaganza. Eleven warriors versed in the Vintage Card fighting style traveled from around the globe just to compete in this epic event.
The roster comprised of…..
-Paul “Sculptini” Mastriano
-Josh “Coffee Cup” Chapple
-Brian ”I <3 holo foil Germans cards” Keil
-Nat “Belcher Innovator” Moes
-Nam “I have my own version of Stax named after me” Tran
-Mark “Snoop Trogg” Trogdon
-Justin “I am on a Vintage Tear” Morford
-Jason “C-Town repp’in” Swim
-CJ “I am on the come up” Moritz
-Matt “Vintage Assassin” Hazard
-Twaun P. Pownerton
The tourney would last 4 rounds and then cut to the top 4. At 1:00pm Wu-Tang swords were unsheathed and the dueling began.
After 4 rounds only Paul, Josh, Nat, and Brian’s swords remained sharpened. The Finals would play out as such……
Paul vs Josh……\
Nat vs Josh………..Split
Nat vs Brian……/
Nat and Brian finalized a gentleman’s agreement with an equal prize split. They then played it out for fun and Brian blew Nat out of the water. It can be seen in the pics below. I am still surprised that Brian’s sleeves did not melt together.
