"Fairy Power" v1.1 (Electric)
By Matt Brooks
Where: The Strategic Castle -----------> Bel Air, Maryland
When: December 29, 2000
Number of Participants: Around 25
Hello again. This is Matt Brooks bringing you yet another Deck Report. This
is the new deck that I made. It is entitled "Fairy Power". The
main power house of the deck is Clefable. Clefable is simply amazing
since he can use any of the defending Pokemon's move. Here is what the deck
looked like:
Pokemon (16)
4x Neo Clefairy (Clefable!)
3x Clefable (Simply AWESOME.....Can you say good bye TR Zapdos? I CAN!)
3x Ditto (All around good Poke)
3x Electabuzz (BBP)
3x Scyther (Free Retreat)
Trainers (25)
4x Oak (Need some card drawing)
3x Gust of Wind (Gust-of-WIN!)
3x Comp. Search (Get what you want when you want)
3x Item Finder (6 of any trainer in your deck)
3x Scoop Up (Get that Poke out of trouble)
3x Nightly Garbage Run (Get back energy and Pokes lost from Oak)
3x Narrow Gym (Get rid of No Removal Gym)
3x Super Energy Removal (Good against wiggly's)
Energy (19)
15x Electric (Buzz.......)
4x DCE (Ditto, Scyther.......)
Pre-Tourney
The way the tourney works is that it is double elimination, so two losses
and your out. Once you lost you go in the losers bracket and don't have a
shot at 1st but possibly 2nd or 3rd. All pairing are random and are based on
your win/loss record. Before the tourney I headed down to the pizza shop and
picked up a chicken finger platter. Ate it and then the pairings started for
the first round of action. Here I go............
Matches
Round 1 vs. Bobby w/ Leaf Deck
This guy was a new coming to the tourney's. He had a grass deck with
Beedrills, Scythers, Koffings, and Fossil Muk. This game was extremely
close. I will fast forward to the end of the match. I had 1 prize and he had
1 prize with 3 or so cards left in my deck. He had a lot of free retreat
Pokes running around trying to stall. In my hand I Item Finder'ed for a Gust
of Wind and gusted out Scyther with 3 counters. I had Electabuzz out and
went for Thunderpunch for the win.........to no avail it was tails and I had
one card left in my deck. He promoted Beedrill with no counters on it and
hopefully stall me to the win. My last card was......yep you guessed
it........another Item Finder! So I got the Gust again on the Scyther and I
won. Good game Bobby.
Record: 1-0
Round 2 vs. Laura Meadows w/ Misty Tentacruel Deck
This was an odd deck. Laura was a very good player who liked to play
original decks. For the most part of the game, all I did was use Ditto,
Clefable and SER to keep her Pokes at bay. This was not a quick match by any
means. The prize count was 5-4 in favor of me when the timer went off. I
pulled this one off by the skin of my teeth. Pheeeeew!
Record: 2-0
Round 3 vs. Cartman w/ Sneasel
Cartman and me are some of the best players at the Castle. I really didn't
stand a chance in the Get-Go. He got a first turn kill using Erika's Puff
with Plus Power. After that he sped through his deck and killed all of my
guys without me collecting one prize. At the end I counted his deck and he
had 61 cards but the judge said that you could have as many cards as you
want but not under 60. Hmmmmmmmm? Its going to be a fun week next week!!!!!
Record: 2-1
Round 4 vs. Justin Lemly w/ Haymaker
This match started off bad. He got out Wiggly early and it looked like I was
going to be out. I got out my Clefable and managed to somehow even up the
prize count. I gained the advantage by killing two of his TR Zapdos with
Clefable. I finally got all my prizes. Thanks Clefable.
Record: 3-1
Round 5 vs. Relento w/ Fire
Very quick match. I only had a Clefable and a Electabuzz. He used Chansey to
double edge to kill one. Brought out Buzz and killed Chansey. He used
Blaine's Ninetails to kill my Buzz.
Record 3-2
Post Tourney
Cartman went on to win the tourney and he gave me a pack of 1st edition
Challenge for loaning him a couple Sneasels for the night. I got a
Resistance Lowering Gym. Oh well I have a plan for next week. You will have
to wait until next week to find out. Until then this is Matt Brooks saying
good bye. GO RAVENS!
Now its time for Props:
-Cartman for the pack
- Castle for having weekly tourneys
