Caton's Dark deck "went undefeated in the Origins Open"; she wrote that it "rolled over everything at Origins" and beat Scott L's Rebel Strike Team deck.[1] Bastian Winkelhaus posted a Dark Set Your Course For Alderaan podracing deck two days earlier, describing it as "the deck that won Origins"; the post does not say who played it there.[6]
