HL Tournament Dülmen, 12.07.2009, 16 players

[Sturmgott]

Despite the parallel pre-release of M10, HL was attended fine by 16 players, which was played out in 5 rounds.

As usual, Patrick Richter won (5-0-0), this time with with 5c OathStax, 2nd was someone I didn't know who played 3c Basic Ramp. I went 3rd with "White Stax with a Twist", going 3-1-1. My los was against UGbw Survival Combo (0:2), and I had a really HUGE game vs. Captain America Control where I must have had about 45 permanents in play, maybe 25 cards left in the library and couldn't find a win option in time because my own Moat prevented my Karn from killing the opponent, who was down to 5 permanents which were all permanently tapped due to 2 Tangle Wires. The game took about seventy minutes and we couldn't finish it, not even in the overtime. (0-0).

I won vs 3c Survival in round 1 (2:0), vs. Boros (Payron style) in Round 3 (2:0) and vs. 5c Oath in the last round (2:0).

The prizes: 1. German blackbordered Badlands, 2. Revised Scrubland, 3. Maze of Ith (nm, me), 4. Oath of Druids, 5. Serra Avatar, 6. Ensnaring Bridge (Stronghold).

I'll post the official results as soon as I find them available.
