Tournament details - "Try My Kung Fu!"

You think your Kung Fu is strong? Here! Try my Kung Fu!

Premise: It's easy to get trapped in a false belief your abilities are great because you've mastered your favourite styles. But do you have the superior kung fu to master any style presented to you? Here is your chance to take on the challenge - how will you go as a Syndicate martial artist, a Purist mathemagician, a Dragon Kicker-of-Butts, a Lotus Eunuch or a Jammer Monkey man?

How it works: Each player brings a deck (that ideally is unfamiliar to
all the other players) and hands it to the tournament organiser before
the event. The decks are then reassigned so no player plays with their
own deck, and have only the brief title of the deck to provide any
information on its contents and play style. At the end of each round
you get scored using the usual tournament points rules, but points are
also given to the decks for how well they performed. As well, you give
the deck you played a score out of 5 for its fun and playability. The
deck then gets passed to another player and you play with a new deck.
Points for players and decks are collated and prizes are given to best
deck, best player, best combined, and highest voted deck.

Date/time: Saturday 24 September - 14:00-18:30

Good Games announce prize support

Our hosts for the B & S Brawl, Good Games at Spring Hill, have announced support for one of the lucky tournament winners.

To help promote the game of Shadowfist, B&S Brawl is proud to have a special prize in the "Final Brawl" national titles tournament for the top-ranked player who has only been playing the game less than a year.

Dubbed the "New Recruit", the winner will receive 5 promo cards, a Shadowfist faction button and $50 store credit at Good Games Spring Hill.

This prize is also open to old players who have returned to the game in the last year after an extended period, or occasional players who we haven't seen playing Shadowfist in quite some time, so have a chat to those you know who haven't dusted off their decks in a while and invite them along.

Prize pool!

The box of prizes has just arrived from Inner Kingdom Games. It looks pretty sweet.

As some of you know the B&S Brawl organising committee have been looking around to supplement the prize pool for the big event.

Part of the prize pool! Hopefully more to come...

At this point the prize pool includes...

• Year of the Dragon and 10K Bullets starter decks (certain factions only)
• Uncut Sheets of Shadowfist cards, old and new!
• Shadowfist mugs (little known fact - ladies love the Shadowfist mug. I can't let mine out of my sight around the office.)
• Cans of Whupass, "Old Skool Edition"
• Faction buttons, both large and small
• Promos! (and lots of them)
• Shadowfist mouse mats (and lots of them)
• The Australian National Championship plaque

We're trying to track down more starter decks, old Shadowfist paraphernalia and other collectibles. Then we'll figure out which tournament gets what bounty for you to play for!
