Meta Check – Irish Kotei
By Bazleebub | | Comments 5 comments
After some difficulties, the Irish Kotei ran with 19 players in attendance.
With a short time between announcement and the event, issues with the event being approved by FFG, and of course the COVID-19 virus this is the smallest Kotei yet. That said, there’s a good chance this will be the last event for the foreseeable future. Players are taking precautions and being careful, but a good time is being had.
The event can be found on Lotus Pavilion here.
This tournament was tracked on Lotus Pavilion allowing us to easily look at the results and pairings and quickly generate charts. Consider supporting Lotus Pavilion at this Patreon page.
At the end of day 1 we had 7 new Hatamoto added to the halls of honor.
- Crab – Michael McCormick
- Crane – Tam Fullard
- Dragon – Rob Almgren
- Lion – Marios Bounakis
- Phoenix – Daniel Barker
- Scorpion – Tony Gleeson
- Unicorn – Eoin ‘Siskey’ Dornan
To make the cut you needed 4-1 or better, 4 players managed that. Marios Bounakis playing Lion, Dario Perri playing Lion, Tony Gleeson playing Scorpion, and Tom Nys playing Lion. They all qualified 4 day two. With clan challengers, all the Hatamoto above qualified as did Dimitris Roumeliotis for Lion and Adam Komisarek playing Scorpion.
The final was Dario versus Tom with Dario taking an honor victory!

Thanks for a wonderful time guys! Despite everything that happened, you managed to make it happen!
Tom’s decklist is not showing properly, you might want to check on that.
Fixed now. Still slowly working through them.
Wait, where did those deck boxes come from?
Apparently Rob knows people who know people. They are not official but are super nice.
