VTES moments of 2008?

So a year has passed and think there has been a lot of stuff going on
in the tournament scene and around kitchen tables this year. New
cards, new combos and so on.

What was your favourite innovation of 2008?

This year has seen a lot of tweaks on historicaly strong decks, a new
card here and a new card there. For me one of the coolest innovations
has to be Ambulance in the AAA (Anson, Anneke, Alexandra) deck. Put
Ambulance and Aching Beauty together in the same deck and you leave
your opponent to make more decisions, which is really good - The more
decisions your opponents need to do the more likely they are to take
the wrong ones!

What card (crypt and/or library) had the biggest impact on deck
construction overall this year?

For the crypt part, I got to say that Anarch Convert has made
anarchism both easier and sexier (hello Laurie! When the new
Shroudfilms coming out?). Its a simple yet perfect design and I give a
salute to LSJ for this masterpiece.

As for the library part - This is still something I have a problem
deciding. I have no idea.

What was your favourite play, game event (or something along those
lines) in 2008?

Mine is defenitly when someone backousts my friend Martin because he
gets so pissed off he's *this* close to throw the table through
nearest window. I've seen this happen twice and its an explosion of
motions well worth to
pay for to see You can feel the frustration hang in the air when it
happens.

What are you looking forward to this year? Any wishes?

That theres a new imbued set.

Kidding! Kidding!

Or am I?

What I do look forward to though is a new bloodline set! That would
totaly rock my world to bits.

2008 was a pretty weird year for me, when I think about it.
On one hand we've been given 2 major expansion (the anarch and KOT)
and on the other hand, I think I've never seen more stupid archetypes
on the same table with extremely bad decks. I thought all these
expansion
might have made tables less... contrasted... but apparently not.

For the card that had the most important impact so far, I'd say
Anarch convert too. Having crypts adding new mechanisms to the game
was great.

What I'd like to see, is turned official deck switching touneys (the
one
deck per round format) and a new laibon set.
