Tournament:
Best 2 out of 3, 3pts for a win, 1pt for
a tie, and 0pts for a loss. There was a bonus 3pts for getting 2-0.
I fixed two of my friends decks than it was time to start. Before I
forget, entree fee is 5 dollars, and there are 3 rounds then Final Four.
Round 1 vs Geoffrey w/ Magmar deck
I don't really
remember much about this round, except that it was long and boring. He
is a very slow player and doesn't really think things through. He used
his Chanseys, Magmars, Elekids, and Dittos well, but I got lucky coin flips
against his Elekids. ended up winning the first one and tieing the
second one to give me 4pts.
1-0-1 4pts
Round 2 vs Trevin w/ Neo Water deck
He only had 2
pok'es and I killed them on my 3rd turn with Scyther. I believe they
were Totodile and Wooper( not sure about that ), both were weak to Grass I
know. I was hoping the second battle was going to be more difficult.
I let him go
first and he powered up his water monsters . It was okay because I
removed all his energy. The only evolution he had down was a Kingdra
that was striped of its energy. I had to Search out a Clefable and give
it energy to destroy that thing before it got energized. The rest were
weak basics that I killed easilly. I never did see a Feraligatr or
even a Croconaw. I was hoping to get more of a challange than that.
2-0 13pts
Between rounds I asked to play
Flareon Master but he only had 5pts so I couldn't >_<.
Round 3 vs Marc w/ Skarmory deck
He had way too
much energy. He played Psychic, Fire, Rainbow, Metal, and DCE.
I think it was around 26. I thought to myself, how does he have a
perfect score of 18pts with this deck. This game was fun because I was
doing 80 damage to the Scythers and Skarmorys until a Magmar took him out with
poison. Then Clefable took out 2 Magmars and a Rocket's Mewtwo. I
almost decked that game, but I've come to expect that.
This one
was a hell of a lot longer. He tried to stall me out, but I took out his
Scythers, Skarmorys, and Magmars pretty quick, considering that he was trying
to stall. I didn't see a Rocket's Mewtwo in that whole game, but I did
see plenty of Psychic energy. I won because I set traps for him ( I
learned how to do that from an issue of the Pojo magazine. It was Ness's
report on the ECSTS that taught me how to do that.
2-0 22pts
For the rest of the
round I traded my friend Paul 2 Zubats for a Mew and Celebi that were both
carrying Leftovers on to my Silver Version! He said that he didn't care
because he had a Mega Memory Card and could easily get them back. I also
found out that Flareon Master wouldn't make Final Four which kind of surprised
me because he battled a couple of easy players.
Semi-finals vs Geoffrey w/ Magmar deck
It was basically
the same thing except a lot quicker both games even after a total of three
mulligans . I thought to myself, how does he sleep at night. Sorry
for not writing too much, but it would be the same as Round 1 and that would
be kind of boring reading the same thing over and over again.
2-0 Next is Finals
Finals vs Paul w/ Sneasel deck
Everybody was
cheering him on because he had taken 5 prizes already and I had taken none.
We had attracted a small crowd of about 7 or 8 people. Anyways once
Clefable finally showed up, I took the lead and took 6 prizes strait to win
that game. It amazed even me because i had mulliganned 2 times
before we started and had a bad hand. He was playing like 8 gyms so my
gyms only lasted about a turn.
He started with
just sneasel against my Scyther, Magmar, Clefairy, and Elekid. By turn
two with help from Oaks, Searches, Pluspowers, and Finders, my Clefable with
help from three pluspowers, did 150 damage to his lonely Sneasel.
That makes 18 tournaments that I have
won at Boardwalk Games. Before I had a record of 12 tournaments in a row
which is the best there so far. Prize was 5 packs ( Your choice ) and a
First Place Ribbon.
Props...
