Team Fanboy
Lian Pizzey is our Extendo-champ, having beaten all contenders in our Play the Game, see the World Championship. He'll now be jetting off to Worlds courtesy of Fan Boy Three!
Yaaay! Andrew Lam is the UK Warcraft TCG National Champion 2009, with Ross Silcock runner up and Steven Marshall is the first ever UK Warcraft Minis National Champion. This has to be our best ever performance ever at any event. Ever.
Congrats to Tom Marsh, who beat Jack Wong to become the winner of our very first Huntik regional.
Well done to Thomas Joseph, third overall in the European Dragon Duel Championships. Fantastic performance Tom with what may be the best ever performance by a UK player in a European event.
Meanwhile, commiserations to Simon 'The Pirate' Ho who lost out in the final of the first ever UKayPro championship in Manchester last weekend.
Congratulations and good luck to Gary "Gandhi" Cadwallader, Team Fanboy's star performer in the 2009 Yugioh Nationals. Gary's set to play in the European Yugioh Championships next weekend as part of the UK National Yugioh Team.
Congratulations to Amber Carter and Paul Foster for coming second and third in last weekend's inaugural Chaotic National Championship and to Jack Wong for winning the UK's first ever Huntik Regional.
