yeah, maxidoodle and i went to gencon together and we both managed to do fairly well. Using his fantastically amazing Refuge deck he managed to go 3-3 at worlds, i believe he won most of his victories with his freeps. Anyway, maxidoodles refuge deck is a force to be reckoned with!

Yeah, all my opponents got sick of me discarding my mountain troll to make him strength 26! Its great to see the look on their face when their beastly olog-hai gets overwhelmed! |

It was great fun! Especially getting to meet Max and PT.
I also played in Day 1 and wound up going 4-2 as well, losing only to two orc swarm decks with my Burning Dwarves discard/orc corruption deck. It was a lot of fun to play and see people. Most people weren’t prepared for orc corruption which was interesting given how much of it there was out there.
I highly recommend going to GenCon if just to play with people from across the country and meet some of the people that you find on these boards! |

Yeah, it was great meeting you, MH. Thanks for the trades while we were there. I’ll try to snag some mordor enraged for you next time we meet. I wanna try to play you next GenCon, or whenever we cross each other. Well, off to building my standard ninja gollum deck!
