Congratulations on finishing T4 with Stone and Sloane, an impressive achievement with a few people doubting him before the event. Plus (spoilers for Saturday's event) you backed this up by finishing as top 4R at Worlds too, a fine double header.

Look forward to any further thoughts once you have more (well earned) sleep and a pleasure to meet you and get your views on various Doomtown topics. :)

Stone: would you try to shift to 8s for You Had ONE Job! once TCaR is released or do you think it is too hard to trigger, particularly out of the original home which can struggle to generate bounties? I think it is a good card but probably not a viable option for this deck. We had a good chat about preserving studs and Peacemaker, but didn't get time to branch out to other options.

I'm also keen to try Jasper Stone with Shotgun and Point Blank.

The secret to this deck - it was only going to work in this event (Servitors required, first tournament)... if it even did (it wasn't tested, just theory). I wasn't expecting decks where I would have to go force a shootout, I doubted we'd see a lot of decks where I'd have to force a fight or lose. I never ran into one.

Rich had the original idea, sidekicks would be good with Stone. I didn't think anyone would see if coming and ran with it. There's a second version of the deck with 5s instead of 7's (Hiding in the Shadows, Knight's Chasuble, Doomsday Supply, Pistol Whip) but Pinned Down was hard to beat and that version also had 3 5s in my starting lineup.

Shotgun was originally in both versions of the deck, but it felt light at 12 dudes, so I dropped it. Without the Shotguns, Nightmare seemed a better choice (and saved me in at least one game).

I'm horrible with tournament reports, everything just runs right out of my head, trying to remember some of it so I can post more.

You Had ONE Job! is interesting, but I wouldn't run it out of Original, in that case it would have to be DRow. For a tournament that would mix Servitor and non-Servitor decks, I think the 7s would have to go for another value with more jobs... but I still love Pinned Down.

Oh there was an error in my deckbuilding. I didn't check too closely and instead of having 2 Requiem for a Good Boy, I had 1 and 1 Tresspassin' (oops).
