So I felt like it would be cool for you guys to see what it’s like on the writer’s perspective of an event. Going into this event I was fully prepared to play until Jim asked for some writers, and well I personally enjoy the writing aspect of the game more than I do playing so I instantly accepted it.

Rooster sent Tenki and set Tensen from Sean’s deck. He set 2 and ended turn. Bodan activated and resolved a Gyokkou on one of Sean’s face down cards.
