- This really was a World Champs-- players hailed from countries all over the globe.
- Here's a great walkthrough of the artists' table, including a few good insights from the artists about where the card art comes from.
- Unfortunately, Upper Deck didn't let us into that dinner with the developers that they held, but here's the two guys who got to go.
- And finally, the players: they put together not only profiles of the top 8 players, but after it was all said and done, an interview with the $100,000 winner. The French player ran undefeated for 12 rounds to win it all, and how'd he do it. "Aggressive Horde, always." For the Horde!
WoW TCG World Championships wrapup
Upper Deck's first WoW TCG World Championships are over, and the $100,000 winner is Guillame Matignon, who crushed his opponents (including the US Champ Brad Watson) with-- what else-- a Blood Elf Paladin. Unfortunately, it looks like UD's Ben Drago was far too busy to blog, but UD's official site has lots of great information and recaps.

@2: Sadly, the reality of most TCGs (former M:tG player here) is that to win $100,000, you'll have to spend a lot of money to be competitive (maybe nowhere near $100k but definitely much much more than, say, $15 a month).
Gimme my $15/month WoW fix online anytime. :)

How do I reply directly to someone's comment? So that it shows as a reply instead of just the next comment?

Any idea where I can find the art of the Blood Elf Female on the picture ? It's a really beautiful one.
I guess it's probably part of the TCG, but more informations would be nice. ^_
