Quick Impressions inbetween Rounds

I was ousted quite quickly during the 2nd round of the Legendary Vampire tournament, so I have a little time to report. (Let's say I have been "tup dogged" for lack of better word). The metagame in the Last Chance Qualifier with 144 players (I think) participating seems to be relatively normal with your fair share of bleed, vote, wall, combat and ally decks (although I think quite a number of rush combat decks, actually). I couldn't really see a tendendancy there.

The metagame of the Legendary Vampire tournament (with 25 players) is completely a different matter. From a quick glance it can be roughly divided into three thirds. The first third are the wall/wallish decks (mostly Auspex (some with Fortitude as well), of course, with at least 4 decks with Carna in it as star vampire. Then you have your share of Animalism combat decks (in some variations with Weenie Animalism and Ahrimanes as well as one in the Nana Buruki style). And the last third is a random assortment of decks with two Tup Dog/Nephandi/Rockcat decks, a Brujah antittribu vote/combat deck, as well a few bleed decks. By far the two most played clans are Tremere and Tremere antitribu in the Legendary Vampire tournament.
