So I was testing a Mercury Deck, but when I got to States, I saw A WHOLE LOT OF TYPHLOSION(Thanks Jim), I decided to go with Split Decision because it can Handle so many different decks. And because I never got my Holon Engine. Im still Kinda new to the tourney scene, so I don’t know many players or names.

Round 1 vs Typhlosion
She really had no chance of winning, but we didn’t know that till after the game. I Had a plusle start with a celios   poliwag and rare Candy in hand so I grab another poliwag and pidgey. She uses plusle to grab 2  cyndaquil so now she has 4 pokes on her bench 1 pidgey and 3 cyndaquil.. I candy into pidgeot search for stevens and top deck another candy and 2 poliwraths 1RG/1UF, a I attach a water energy to poliwhirl and pass. She evolves 2 cyndaquil and pidgey, then attaches energy to quiliva and passes. I retreat plusle for Poliwhirl evo into UF Poliwhirl attack DRE  candy into Poliwrath(RG) Search for giant Stump she discards 1 quiliva and then Smack  Plusle for a prize…WAIT I FORGOT TO SET MY PRIZES!!! Judge comes over grabs 6 of bottom and Keeps game moving. She gets a typhlosion up drops DRE hits for 40 powers between turns then. I attach energy smack her for 80.  she drops the energy root and then ko’s me I send up poliwrath RG and Drop the dre for the KO. She sends in another Typhlosion with root already attached but only has 2 energy I attach holons electrode bounce DRE Quick search Strenght Charm And End the game Her pidgetto never evolved so it was gone the following turn. We looked at Prizes. She had 2 Pidgeot 2 typhlosion and 1 holon FF in there…
1-0

Round 2 vs Typhlosion
I have a Poliwag Start, I go first and pass. She candies into pidgeot and plusles 2 cyndaquils . I play stevens but …what is this my deck is mixed(I have sleeves and half are up and half are upside down) I can barely shuffle it. Well this whole game I struggle to pull anything while her typhlosion with 40 damage and and energy root just OHKO’s everything.
1-1

Round 3 vs another Typhlosion w/Weezing

I go first A Dunsparce start and tripping turn his jirachi so he cant wishing star then I  down draw for 3 strait turns to get the best setup. Then I tripping turn for Poliwrath RG

I Smack jirachi for 50 and he brinneys it up and sends in Typhlosion he actually powered up w/Holon FF. He hits for 50, then I return the favor by confusing him, he flips tails next turn, then I ko him, his weezing  saves him 2 times but I win after I use dunsparce to tripping turn trap him with poliwrath RG time is called and he hits me for a lot of damage, but your Body doesn’t take effect in time, thanks.

2-1

Round 4 vs ???
I was complaining to myself  because all my games were taking so long and going down to the wire. I get a pidgey start he gets a Horsea start I attach holons WP and corner. he rockets admins then passes. I pulled a candy and celio in the admin. I grab pidgeot, play candy attach water energy, quick search a strength charm and gg.
3-1

I look at the boards and my resistence is total crap. Im last in a 4 way tie for 4^th I have to win the next game.

Round 5 vs Hariyama ex

I get another dunsparce start and i get pidgeot T1, I down draw  and quick search for 2 turns because I Know BF is Comming  as soon as he swoops jirachi he evos into  Hariyama, and  he lays down BF. He ko’s dunsparce. I have 2 Poliwraths RG on bench ready one withenergy and one with no energy( he cant rock me with an ex so I send in the candied Wrath attach scramble and confuse lock him he has to attack so he flips tails I ko him. He sends up jirachi to set up again, I ko the jirachi and set desert ruins, he comes up an smacks me for 80. I confuse him again he flips for the scoop heads  he sends in the other hariyama and 40 for the ko. I send up sparce and tripping turn. He flips tails the rest of the match and I win the game.

4-1

Round 6 vs Metanite with lunatone/solrock

This is the reason for 3 protective orbs and THE CAME IN HANDY….

This Game Went Back And Forth prize for prize, A well timed Giant stump took care of lunatone/solrock. And kept pidgeot quick searching. It came down to the last 10 minutes I need to KO his last metagross and tie the prizes this would have gave me the game, I need the strength charm, everything is in place I quick search and NOOOOOOOO it’s prized with that ONE CARD prized, it’s impossible to now win the game.

4-2

I Finish 8^th barely squeezing in there. That round 5  win locked my place in the finals

Top 8

Round 1 vs Flygon ex

Game 1

I get the worst hand Possible I play a Dunsparce and have no playable energy so I pass. He plusles and I admin to grab something finally an energy I attach but I now have 2 tools 2 stadiums and a holons electrode in hand I down draw into another tool and mr brinneys,  he has 2 flygon EX on bench, I forfeit

Game 2

Okay this is what im talking about. Dunsparce start I get 2 poliwraths up quick one of each. he ko’s a dunsparce. I send up poliwrath rg and confuse, he flips for confusion. Heads. He hits me for 100 I smack him for 80, he goes for the scoop up…. Heads another flygon ex he grabs a boost and a grass outta discard  ko’s poliwrath I send up  dunsparce  I manage another poliwrath RG on bench and tripping turn for poliwrath he flips tails

I ko flygon ex he sends up another flygon ex and smacks me for 40 I confuse him, and he flips heads for another ko. I send up dunsparce and tripping turn for the Uf Poliwrath, Im desperate if I ko a flyfon erx I can get two prizes and still win. Well he plays scoop up heads, smack me for 100 with the same flygon ex he just scooped, I hit for 30 and he gets another ko, I figure all his boost are gone so I send the dunsparce and then pidgeot he retreats and evolves another flygon ex  grabs another boost and grass and kos pidgeot…the Game is now over

Props To Everyone who came

I learned that AN UNSHUFFLED DECK WILL NOT WIN!

See You At Nationals
