TheTopCut us probably doing this a ton faster, but why not?

They are getting it up faster, but I'm updating the OP for 2 reasons:

1) A lot of people still only look at the 'Gym to see tourny results
2) They don't keep track of the brackets in an organized way including deck choices. Normally they only do a Top 4 final results summary on their website. This way people can see how the last day played out.

Personally, I'm pulling for Mr. Murry and Mr. Roberts. I know John. Also, CMT and KK EX are my two favorite decks right now.

I'll keep post pairings if you want....I also am adding Jr/Sr in my post above, so....
 
Really unable to figure out Seniors Top 2 right now....will post when the players take their seats....

Play resumes at 2:00 EST.
 
AMazing that Darkrai ex looks to the mighty Klinklang as his only shot at being in the Nats winning deck. I woulda like'd to see 4 SUpporter CMT win just to destroy what we know as deck building, but exciting nonetheless.

I think going to Top 4 was sufficient to make it us think about deck building. The priblem is the 4one Supporter paradigm will likely be shirt lived. His deck worked because he could abuse Smeargle and deny opposing Smeargles. It falls a part if you have to use an attack space for your draw crutch. obviously, we lose Smeargle and that option in September. It was a brilliant move ATM.
