Joe Sottille ran a Sealed at the Magic Guild in Fitchburg on Sat 3/31/2001... everyone got a JP Sealed Box plus 2 packs of Premiere plus 2 packs of Special Ed...an ok matchup, made 60 card decks.... made it harder to flip the objective, but all in all not bad....this is the deck I made.... Sealed Deck - 3/31/2001 Jpsd + 2 premiere + 2 special ed Agents in the Court JP Antechamber Tat Desert Heart DS Trash Compactor Kirdo 3 Lt Naytaan 4x Klat Revolutionary 2x H’nemthe 2x Ithorian 2x B’Monk 2x Gran Lando w/Ax Tanus Joh Yowza Tib Op Saelt Marae Figgie Baragwin Elom Ardon Vapor Both Spy Chadra Fan Kitonak Droid Merchant Palace Raider Sic Six 2x Worrt Ronto Racing Skiff Skiff Y Wing Xwing Stun Blaster Mos Eisley Blaster x-Wing Cannon *Crash Site *Uh Oh Underworld Contacts Sandwhirl Bargining Table 2x The Signal 2x Skull 2x You will Take me to Jabba Nar Shadda Wind Nabrun Leids Choke The Bith Shuffle We’re Doomed Figured Kirdo would help with the Sandwhirl but it never got out.... Quick rememberances of the matchups.... Paul Laudenbach -- I won 2+27, started with Uh-Oh which didn’t help --Lando did his usual whoop-ass and saved the day, we got in a couple of good battle, Paul got me for about 8 force early off but I recovered and drained in space at his kessel. Steve Anderson -- I won 2+30, started w/Crash Site, which saved me the entire game - I was losing skiffs then getting them back and deploying them all thru the game -- worked so well, I’m thinking of an actual tourney light deck with this effect to boot! 3rd game - Paul’s relative - forgot the name, so I’ll call him "Stubby"--- I won 2 + 9, a couple of good battles and a crappy draw hand that was all effects and interrupts got me started slow..plus the fact that I underestimated a player who I’d nvr played before, so I figured "easy win." Joey Sotille -- I won 2 +47. This is Joe’s son and being the big bully that I am sometimes, I gave him a quick drain and beatdown on the 2-3rd turns.... got Worrt out and he lost almost all of his characters by 5th turn.... gave him a Luke Skywalker card from my folder afterwards to keep him interested in the game. All in all a fun tourney - I won 8 +113 (yipes!) and took home a couple of packs of R2. Also, we discovered that the store had one of those 6 rares in each pack of Reflections one so we bought a bunch of those. Hops: I won with the biggest differential ever in a sealed. Cheap space to play, beats $12 admission that I have to charge at Boxborough. Joe doing another crack up job. Good price, good support for everyone. Crash site memorial - hve to check that out again. Lando vibro for being too strong Flops: Only thing crappy about the guild is the guy charges FULL RETAIL PRICE PLUS TAX!!! Lousy chairs - looks like someone’s grandma dropped a couple of deuces on the seats. Joe running off for his job... was a bit rushed and the timed games some people had were bummers. Lando vibro for being too strong
