(400pt) John Grout wins the Asheville, NC Super Qualifier with Shredders!

ROC Tournament Results logo

Another 400pt event, another win for the Foot Clan; more specifically, Shredders.  This field had some interesting builds as 400 points does give more room to be creative.  It was still a lot of the same teams, but Daniel Powell had a great Midnight Sons Mystical team, which finished in second place, while Jacob Bishop sported a Venompool for the first time.  John Grout’s winning Shredder team had Mxy as back-up and was able to beat Dan’s unique team. Congratulations, John!

Analysis:

1st Place – John Grout

Aside from the same archetypes, there were some variations.  The aforementioned Venompool on Jacob’s winning team supplemented the Shredders, while Dan played a whole new team, abusing the Midnight Sons ATA for added protection.  Deadpool set is starting to make a splash as players are finding more about the format as time goes on.
