Poll: Deck of the Year 2008

After having presented twelve decks of the month in the past year here's the inevitable poll for you to pick the Deck of the Year 2008 (see sidebar on the right). Please observe, that the initial choice of these decks were driven not by any wanna-be-objective-here motivation, but by my (likely flawed) preferences for orginality of deck design, for audacity to play such a deck in a tournament environment or for the skill to pilot such a crappy deck to the tournament win (or final).

There is no actual prize support for this "award" other than your five minutes of fame.

• Cats and Dogs by Miguel del Valle (ESP) -- "Tup Dogs" & "Rock Cats" are trying to oust counterclockwise with "Mark of the Damned".
• Khazarghoulator by Orian Gissler (FRA) -- a fusion of "Khazar's Diary" & "War Ghoul" decks.
• Toreador Quintuple-A by Johannes Walch (GER) -- the classic Toreador Triple-A extended by "Aching Beauty" and "Ambulance".
• Hektor Multi-Rush by David Wittmann (HUN) -- Hektor Superstar deck.
• Enkidu Brinkmanship by Ira Fay (USA) -- "Enkidu" with "Raptors" enforces a "Brinkmanship".
• Mummy Strength! by Matt Morgan (USA) -- Your basic "Spell of Life" deck.
• Lots of Babies by Ira Fay (USA) -- A very unusual trophy deck that turns itself into a weenie mass bleed deck.
• Assamite Anarch Council by Robyn Tatu (USA) -- The Assamite Anarch vote deck that later won two main events at the NAC 2008.
• Akunanse Trophy by Martin Varga (SVK) -- Akunanse Trophy deck that won the "Silence of Death" event at the EC 2008.
• Children of the Damned by Greg Williams (USA) -- "Nephandus" deck meets Assamite "Haquim Law: Leadership".
• Nosfe-Rat-Tools by Iñaki Jimenez (ESP) -- A very streamlined Nosferatu Royalty vote deck.
• Nocturns Twins by Carlos Eduardo Ganso (BRA) -- dedicated to let "Nocturn" do direct damage with "Shadow Twin".
