Is Leveler a candidate for banning? It seems to be doing very well for the moment, and it’s hard to beat. Despite the small tournament, it would have been capable of winning a much larger one. I don’t want to ban it if people think it’s fair, but I will do if it continues to be more than just a ‘strong’ deck.
Although this was a small tournament, I felt it was one of the highest-quality tournaments ever. There were no decks that you felt that everyone was picking on, and Laurie Cheers suffered as a result.
Again, apologies for the further delay, normal service will resume as of next week. The next tournament is now open (separate thread to follow).
Please post any corrections/discussions.
Tom
Now everything's back to normal. I hope.
