Round 5 - Tie Breaker for Championship - losing country sings the others National Anthem
Phil K (5-0) defeats Garion (2-3) to clinch for the US.

The Canadians did a great job in singing the US National Anthem. Their rallying cry at the end was "wait to next year!!!".

This tourney was a lot of fun. The DC3 cards were great. Feedback was unanimous to keep the DC format at the Peace Bridge tourney next year. A big thanks to Michael Carbonara who produced the DC3 cards.

If you are reading this the you need to be there next year!

One more update item: the winner pack open/trade option. What is that you ask?

Starting on Friday night each winner of a match got an unopened pack of Original OP.  If you pulled a card on the list below you got, in trade, the unopened pack listed for that card.

Here is the list:

1. Psylocke hero - trade for unopened Image pack - not redeemed.
2. Invisible Woman - Invisible Ram special - unopened IQ pack - REDEEMED.
3. Psylocke - Mental Hold special - unopened MN pack - REDEEMED.
4. Apocalypse hero - REDEEMED, Spider-Man - Web special - REDEEMED, Psylocke - Psychic Knife - not redeemed, Captain America hero - REDEEMED - unopened PowerSurge pack
5. Apocalypse - Megamorph special - REDEEMED, Punisher - Vendetta - not redeemed, Iron Man - Tactical Computer - REDEEMED, Mystique - Surprise Attack - REDEEMED.

Eight of the 11 prizes were redeemed.

The winners were:
Phil Miller - 2
Marcel - 2
D'Arcy
Garion
Sean
Doug

Let me know if we should do that again.

Thank you.

BTW, I have no idea what happened to the cards I traded the packs for.
