1st place: BrianGabe
2nd place: Mr. Hiatus
3rd place: CaptainKirk?
4th place: John Michaliszyn Fixed
5th place: Xerosplash

Yes, the only loss accrued to Mr. Hiatus was due to a formidable foe with a defence of steel; piloting a jacob captain and a recurision of:
Reuben’s Torn Clothes
I helped Kirk Test that Deck and reccomended it be one of the ones he taked to Nats. It is the Infinite RTC deck and a pain to play against lol

RNRS Totals For Type 2-2 player should fall like this
1. Gabe Isbell (94) IA
2. Kurt Hake (90) CA
3. John Michaliszyn (86) MA
4. Josh Randolph (78) OR
5. Kirk Dennison (73) FL
6. Justin Alstad (66) MN
7. Jonathan Pequinot (60) OH
8. Tyler Stevens (57.5) GA
9. Scot Stamp (55) OR
10. Chuck Lamp (50) MN

5th place: Xerosplash

After starting the day 0-2, I came back and won the next 4 games to take 5th place. Not the best, but I'm happy with it.

Kevin Shride is the most outstanding team partner in the Nation! Congratulations on your first place victory my friend.

Yep, those two were a monster in teams. Kirk and Ben lost their first game, leaving the games wide open for them to snag the win.

Sorry about the infrequent postings yesterdsay guys, my internet was fried, so quick summary for you:

Gabe Wins Type 2 - 2 Player, joining Tim Maly as the only player in redemption history to win both Type 1 2 Player, and Type 2 2 Player.

Then later in the day Gabe continued his dominance by sweeping the teams competition, His partner Kevin Shride also contributed to the victory.

Also, I am proud of myself for my 7-1 Victory over Tim Maly, of course he did draw no site access for the first 7 turns.

Grand Master Rob brought out the TeXP later in the day, and of course people wen't crazy picking them up, and let me tell you there's some crazy stuff in the set, wow.

Anyway, if I can't get internet access, then look for more updates tonight.

Congratulations to my tag team partner, Gabe Isbell, on winning three trophies in one day. You're awesome, man!

On a side note people were opening Destructions, Guardians, Writs, Shrouds ect. everywhere...

unfortunatly these packs were created especially for Nats due to time restraints in the packaging process. Talk about incentive to go to NATS. srry for the rest of ya- if i was anyone at Nats i would buy as many as i could get.

Actually Rob said that the boxes will probably get slightly better after nationals when he has more time to put surprise cards in the boxes.

Tschow,

But I also wonder if the packs for sale on the Cactus Web site are packaged in a similar way? If so then hopefully those of us who partake of this preorder may get the same distribution of UR's?

I want to know how T1 2-player is going. Who's taking the crown this year? Something cool or something boring?

Alex_Olijar · « **Reply #39 on:** July 31, 2009, 02:17:52 PM »

Early tweets from Scott show...nothing of interest really, as far as results go.

Gohanick · « **Reply #40 on:** July 31, 2009, 02:51:22 PM »

Gabe wins T1-2P
Ron Sias wins T2-MP

So, it's NC 2, MW 1, NE 1.

A major congrats gop out to Ron Sias, that is awesome.

The question everyone at Cali is asking themselves would appear to be, "Can anyone stop Gabe?"

In other news, attendance climbs well past that of the 2009 NC Regional making 2009 Nationals the most attended tournament of the year.
