I've written a detailed retrospective of my time at #WBC2025 last week, which is now available at BoardGameGeek. Live vicariously through my account of the best ten days in gaming! #boardgames #BoardGameGeek #StarWarsOuterRim #StarWarsRebellion #innovation #WarOfTheRing

WBC 2025 - In My Experience, There's No Such Thing as Luck. | BoardGameGeek https://share.google/GiHrvi5cxB0cPomQN

Day 3 of #WBC2025 was a slower one, which i needed after yesterday! In the morning, I swung by open gaming to play #Arcs with a couple friends. I lost by a decent margin, but that warmed me up for Heat 1 of the Arcs tournament in the afternoon, which I won by a single point! Then I went to my shift checking in games for tomorrow's auction, then ran heat 2 of #StarWarsQueensGambit. We had an odd number, so I sat out. After that, it's bedtime before my 8 am shift working the auction. #boardgames
And that's Day 2 of #WBC2025! It started with heat 2 of #StarWarsOuterRim, which i won as Dengar. Then I ran a demo for #StarWarsQueensGambit for a few folks, which was great! Next came the mulligan round of #WarOfTheRing, which i won with an extremely fast ring dunk in just over an hour, even with a break for a fire alarm evacuation! Then I ran the first heat of Queen's Gambit which had a great turnout of 16 players, and I won my match. Last was ##StarWarsRebellion mulligan, which I lost.
Day 1 of #WBC2025 is in the books! I started off the day in the #SanJuan tournament, where I went 3-1 in the Swiss rounds to just inch into the single-elimination bracket. I won my play-in game, then lost to a repeat champion in the round of 16. After a break for food and a dip in the pool, I won my first heat of #StarWarsOuterRim as Bossk. Then I closed the day with the late night dice-fest #LasVegas, where I won the first round then lost in the quarters. And now it's time for bed! #boardgames
