Gencon Evil is a Choice Second Place - Taking to the Gateway
SirLargeness 202
Howdy friends, just a short write up here. The draw structure is built such that a low or no stud posse can still get to a full house or better. Primary plan usually is to tie as the loser or lose outright then activate Turtles and Taking and attrition your opponent out. Kabeda is there as your Shaman 2 which we really super need to start.
This event was the fist official tournament to use Servitors, so we selected a deck that would go well with Grimme to search for Turtles and Ghostly Communion. The complete lack of stud will more often than not cause your opponent to underestimate your shootout potential.
Fun times, tournament was run well, Gencon was a blast. Thanks all.

Yeah, those two are meta cards for different things. Pinned down is a must to beat force field, kidnappin is a must against huckester bullshit. |

Coolest deck at Gencon by a mile. |
Well done on making the final and glad you had a good time!
I liked that this lured many people in to ill-advised shootouts.
Are there any changes you'd consider after the tournament? Varying the number of Kidnappin' and Pinned Down might depend on how the environment looks at any given moment.
