+**newsgroup tournament report:**
+<file>
+Date of event: Saturday June 19th, 2010
+Location of event: Espoo, Finland
+# of players: 16
+Winning Player: Aleksi Nuora (VEKN 3070125)
+Winning Clan: True Brujah
+Winning Faction: Bahari
+Key Minion: Nehemiah

+We played the Battle Lines storyline over here last Saturday, and got
+a very decent attendance (16) taking into account that it's a summer
+weekend.
+The win went to Aleksi Nuora with his (Bahari) True Brujah deck. It's
+a slow builder of a deck, but when it gets going it's very very
+dangerous. It also has some fun tech (the Temptation angle, with
+Abactor for maximized nasty).
+All in all, I saw a lot of very different decks. Multiple Baali of
+course (though nobody was quite crazy enough to bring a Loyalist Baali
+deck :) but only two Kiasyd, which has a bit of a surprise for me. My
+own (Nagaraja) deck packed a copy of Mistrust but I didn't draw it
+once over 3 games -- plain bad luck there. It would have been useful.
+The final round consisted of (in seating order):
+  * Matias Frosterus (Bahari Gargoyle), final total 2 GW, 6.5 VP
+  * Otso Turunen (Bahari Baali), final total 1 GW, 6.5 VP
+  * Antero Hakala (Loyalist Daughters), final total 1 GW, 4 VP
+  * Aleksi Nuora (Bahari True Brujah), final total 2 GW, 8.5 VP
+  * Marko Saari (Bahari Baali), final total 2 GW, 7 VP
+The finals were actually pretty boring and resulted in a timeout...
+almost everyone had so much bloat that nothing much seemed to happen.
+The two Baali decks were both Great Beast -based, so they were stuck
+in contest hell and ended up being a lot less powerful than they
+otherwise would have been.
+The full clan breakdown for the day was:
+<file>
+x Baali (Bahari)
+x Gargoyle (Bahari)
+x Daughters (Loyalist)
+x Kiasyd (Bahari)
+x Nagaraja (one Bahari, one Loyalist)
+x Salubri (one Bahari, one Loyalist)
+x True Brujah (Bahari)
+</file>
+Bahari was obvious a *lot* more popular, for obvious reasons.
+It was a fun tournament, especially because ignoring the grouping
+rules and some clan disabilities let you build decks you never could
+try out normally. It was also very very unbalanced, the Bahari faction
+card was miles beyond the Loyalist one in power, and letting Baali
+ignore their untap cost let them do nasty things. Still, a fun time
+was had.
+Aleksi's winning deck:
+<file>
+Description :
+Fairly straightforward. Control Villeined minions with Rants and
+Tempts, oust when the opportunity presents itself. The deck is based
+on the idea that if a stealth vote/bleed deck can cycle cards at a
+nearly arbitrary rate it will win.
