Hey Pojo,
My name's Ben, and I participated in a Tournament in
Cranberry, PA at New
Dimension Comics August 29th. There were about 100 people there, but
only 23
in my age group. The 1st place prize was $50 store credit, 2nd was
$20, and
3rd was $10. It was swiss style with best 2 out of 3 except for the
final
match which was only 1 game. My e-mail is Imriklord@aol.com
This is my mono grass deck:
22 Grass Energy
4 Double Colorless Energy
2 Bill
2 Computer Search
2 Professor Oak
2 Gust of Wind
2 Energy Removal
2 Pokemon Breeder
3 Pinsir
3 Scyther
4 Nidoran Male
2 Nidorino
2 Nidoking
4 Nidoran Female
2 Nidorina
2 Nidoqueen
Game 1:Played a person named Ryan with a fighting/water/colorless deck with
hitmonchans, dragonairs, and poliwraths.
Round 1 - I got a sucky hand with only 1 basic Pokemon: nidoran
male. It
was over in 2 turns.
Round 2 - Basicly the same thing. Record 0-2
Game 2: Person didn't show up so I got 2 automatic wins. Record 2-2
Game 3: Played a kid that had a deck based around Charizard, Gyarados, and
Blastiose.
Round 1 - I got out Scythers and a Nidoking. He got out Squirtles,
Charmeleons, and Magikarps. Nidoking's toxic made short work of them.
Round 2 - He Got out a Chansey and Double-Edged 2 of my Pokemon. I
finally
got out a Nidoking and he had a Blastiose out. I Toxiced him and then
did
Thrash. Blastiose is gone, and he had no other basics. I
win. Record 4-2
Went on to the quarter finals.
Played a kid with a psychic and grass deck. I am a little foggy about
this
game. I'll do my best to remember.
Round 1 - Got out multiple Scythers, A Nidoking, and Nidorina. He had
a
Mewtwo, Mr Mime, and some other one as his active. I had Scyther as
my
active. Took down his active on my second turn. He sent
out oddish. I did
swordsdance. He put an energy on Mewtwo and passed. I gust
of winded out
his Mewtwo and did slash for 60 damge to destroy mewtwo. He brought
out Mr.
Mime. I brought out Nidoking and took him down in 1 hit with toxic. He
brought out his oddish and i finished him with Nidoking. He had no
basics
left so I won.
Round 2 - He got out a vileplume and i got out nidorina. I confused
vileplume. He didnt try to attack. I finally finished
plume off with double
kick. He brought out haunter. He kept trying to put me to
sleep, but I kept
waking up. I brought out Scyther and eventually got rid of him. He
once
again had no Basics, so I won.
Semi-finals
Played one of the judges with a psychic and water deck.
Round 1 - I got out scyther and put a whoopin on his abras and staryus. I
win.
Round 2 - I got out scyther with a Nidoking on my bench all powered up. I
made a few abras and staryus go bye-bye. He brought out Mr. Mime. I
brought
out Nidoking. I did toxic and got rid of Mr. Mime. He had
a staryu left,
but he forfeited.
Final game: Played the same person that i did in my 1st round. He sent out
hitmonchan. I had scyther out. (Gotta love that resistance) I did
swords
dance. My scytyher is unaffected by jab. Did slash for 60. He
retreats
hitmonchan for a dragonair. He does hyperbeam, but i have a hand full
of
energy. I retreat scyther and bring out Nidorina. I confuse dragonair. He
keeps damaging himself while i build up Nidoking. He tries to attack,
but
its tails and knocks himself out. He brings out another hitmonchan. I
bring
out nidoking and toxic him. He retreats hitmonchan for another
dragonair. I
gust of wind out one of his hitmonchans. I finish it off. He
brings out
dragonair. i knock it out in a coulple of turns. He brings out
poliwhirl. I
defeat it. He forfeits and I win! It was my 1st tourney
too!
