The prelims were pretty nasty. I abused the crap out of the Succubus Club. The first table I ended up using it to save myself from dying 3 different times. After paying my predator 1 pool to "borrow" her rats, I had the set up to oust Steve Bucy with a Perfect Clarity/Daring Dawn bleed. This burned Spiro and left me with no minions. I worked a deal with Nat Hammond to help oust my predator. The Succubus Club came in really handy letting me offer Nat and myself unlimited card cycling using Succubus to trade the Elder Library back and forth. I don't remember much from the second round, except that Succubus came in abusively helpful once again by being able to constantly trade Milicent Smith back to myself at the begining of every turn. This time Nat Hammond got to be on the recieving end of that horrible succubus club card. The Final had the following seating order: #1 Brad Ward - Spiridonas Soul Gem/Perfect Clarity/Daring Dawn #2 John Amato - Black Cat, Celerity Equipment !Brujah/Brujah #3 Paul Johnson - ??? #4 Jason Dawson - Anarch Revolt Weenie Dominate/Bleed/Bleed Bouncer #5 ??? - Attention first went to Jason who had the Anarch heavy bleed Deflection deck. Paul and Jason's prey (don't recall who) really tried to put the hurt on Jason. I was the only one with votes on the table. Jason, seeing his demise offered to help me however he could if I would vote to keep his Anarchs in play while he ousts his prey. My prey (John) was putty in my hands, having neither bleed bounce, intercept nor stealth. Jason's prey fell first followed by Paul Johnson. I then ousted John Amato and Jason followed through with his deal and rolled over. The game was over in about an hour or less thanks to the Anarch Revolts. Note: The deck is only less than 90 cards because I had limited number of Perfect Clarity. I plan to increase it to 90 as I acquire more.
