Recreating the Lasombra's Deck Bashing Challenge Archive

I recently noticed that, with the lasombra's site being offline, many of the archived deck bashing decks aren't available anymore - archive.org only has those from the very early challenges. I've been trying to dig up the various decks and recreate the archive in the secretlibrary. I've been adding decks with the prefix 'AWDBC: ', so they can be easily found when searching the secret library. I've managed to find the following decks (sections and names from the original deck archive on the Lasombra's site) Decks that have been posted in answer to this challenge: Alex's Set of Ventrue Alias's Nosferatu Antitribu Andy Brown's Setite Toreader Blender Antti's Ishtarri Anathema Bram Vink's Nosferatu and Nosferatu Antitribu Bram Vink's Toreador Antitribu Bram Vink's Toreador Antitribu Barons Dorrinal Blackmantle's Tremere Antitribu Ector's Malkavian Antitribu Fabio Macedo's Guruhi Fabio Macedo's New Anathema Fabio Macedo's Count Germaine's Gang Gravity's Gangrel Akunanse J's Nosferatu and Nosferatu Antitribu John Flournoy's Tremere Antitribu Kevin Mergen's Malkavian Antitribu Legbiter's African Insanctus Legbiter's Violent Toolbox Matt Green's Bedeviled Matthew Morgan's Akunanse The Name Forgotten's Gangrel Norman S.

What are the bashing decks about? Prince of Paris, France Ratings Coordinator, Rules Director

They were the various entries for Atom Weaver's Deck Bashing Challenge The original challenge was The VTES Precon Decklist Bashing Challenge 03.01.07 Using only the cards contained in two precon starters of your choice, generate a decklist you think would be competitive in a mid-size constructed tournament (not a qualifier or championship, but assume strong local players, and, say 20 participants). Duplicating a starter is acceptable. Choosing more recent precons (3rd Ed, LOB, KMW) is preferred (but not mandatory). Alternatively, you could choose to substitute the content of VTES Player's Kit for one precon. If you've got the stones to play it For Real in a sanctioned event, so much the better, let us know how you do. The goals here are 1) to challenge your m@dd deckbuilding skills!! 2) to generate some ideas for competitive decks that new/early players might look to for inspiration and direction for their own collecting efforts. Also, I think these decklists could go a long way as evidence against the (false) perceived need for big investment in cards in order to build competitive decks.
