Next Level Vintage: August Edition

Today we had a dissapointing turnout. We only managed to field 6 players making this month as the first month this year we have failed to fire our Vintage event. I believe that this is due to only last weekend being our eternal MASTERS event which took over the whole weekend which may have lead to players not being able to give up 2 weekends in a row.

We had a friendly 3 rounds of Swiss and a good playtesting session afterwards and generally had a great afternoon slinging cardboard.

I hope to see everyone back next month and hopefully we will see the return of some of our other players.

At the end of three rounds our top 6 looked like:

1) Christine May - BUG Fish
2) Andrea Canessa - Shops
3) Luke McCandless - Espresso Shops
4) Scott Annable - Burning Oath
5) Jake Hall - Noble Fish
6) Joshua Butler - Pyromancer Gush
