The Dark Ascension Prerelease in Hove was a great success! We had 20 players in total, as per the previous event some random players have been chosen to be vampires, werewolves, zombies and spirits; today however the event started with 2 of each!
Round One
Nathan true to his name of 'cat boy' plays a Black Cat and gives it hexproof!
Ryan becomes the first human casualty of the day becoming a spirit after Daves wins 2-0
Olly defends against zombie Gareth forcing him to concede after milling Sorin and Moonveil Dragon from a Trepanation Blade
Ryder also becomes a spirit, losing to John 2-0 who actually won the game with spirit creatures!
Cats continue to do well Adam does damage with a 5-2 white cat! (How strange a badger using a cat to attack his enemy!)
Gary becomes a zombie, losing 2-0 to Mike (the third human to fall)
Round Two (2 werewolves, 2 vampires, 4 spirits, 3 zombies, 9 Humans)
Josh and Richard become the next humans to fall, both becoming zombies!
Gareth plays Sorin Lord of Innistrad in the last minute to try and win the game!
Round Three (2 werewolves, 2 vampires, 4 spirits, 5 zombies, 7 Humans)
David is the current leader very closely followed by Robert and Mike!
David has Stromkirk Captain, Havengul Lich and Falkenrath Aristocrat in play in round one against Mike.
Ryder win quickly 2-0 making up for the quick defeat in the last round!
Gary claims the latest zombie converting Matt after a 2-0 victory!
The humans seem to be holding on this round both Andrew and Mass win against monsters!
Gareth thinks about conceding before holding on to a 1-1 result!
Another zombie is created as Philip is beaten by Josh 2-0
Round Four (2 werewolves, 2 vampires, 4 spirits, 7 zombies, 5 Humans)
David get an early win thanks to an unblockable Falkenrath Marauders! (could we have another Spirit in the making?)

Andrew beats Mass 2-0 and moves into second place!
Round Five is now being played! (2 werewolves, 2 vampires, 5 spirits, 7 zombies, 4 Humans)
