That's not quite what I meant. Apologies if I wasn't clear. What I mean is, the major issue people are having with 60 mins is that it leads to sudden death/very incomplete 3rd games. If players are going to use a 25% increase in time to take 25% longer over their turns, you are still left with...

It shouldn't give you extra time to make decisions. You should still have to maintain the same pace of play. The point is to have a legit, complete (or near-complete) 3 game series. If players are going to use the extra time to just play more slowly that isn't going to happen.

As long as the coin/dice is legal and sanctioned by the head judge, then ethics doesn't enter in to it. Both are perfectly acceptable choices.

I think I am going to judge you anyway . . . . . . you have just done something fantastic and you deserve so much credit for putting on this tournament. I hope you get Organized Play soon because you completely deserve it.

It was a deck that used Sableye SF to abuse the new Black and White rules which allowed you to play Trainers on the first turn. With multiple uses of Crobat G, PokeTurn, Poke Blower +, Junk Arm, Super Scoop Up etc, you could put a lot of damage on the Field wherever you liked without even using...

The trouble with Sigilyph is that almost every tier 1/2 deck out there includes a good answer for it. Darkrai has Absol PLF Plasma has Kyurem PLF Goth Lock has Accelgor Klinklang has Cobalion-EX, Cobalion NVI Garbodor decks have Garbodor The possible exceptions are Rayeels decks that don't run...

Although there are cards in modified that we might not like or we might think ruin the format (not that everyone ever agrees on this), the fact is that modified is pretty much designed to be the way it is. The Professor Cup format is made out of modified. It was never part of the orginal design...

It is possible for people to have legal resident status in more than one country. It is not possible for them to play in more than one Nationals. But each individual is entitled to choose which Nats they play, as long as they meet the criteria.

Props on the title. I bet dozens of people clicked that link ready to rant.

Michael Cornwall played Blastoise, not TDK

Both Omar and Khalil lost in Top 4.

Darkrai is not the only deck that can OHKO the Pokemon in TDK (or Darkrai for that matter): Blastoise, Eels, TDK itself. They don't need the snipe either. The ones that can't are generally playing a different kind of game (Goth Lock, Klinklang). Darkrai is decent vs TDK, but it by no means...

Practically every match up in the format works the same way, it isn't exclusive to Darkrai.

Can't really link to other sites, but if you google 'Rayquaza/Eelektrik deck', you will find a ton of lists, articles, and even videos.

That's why you run 3-4 Eelektrik NVI Just recycle those discarded Energy on to a Benched Rayquaza and go again.

Irrelevant really. If your cards are marked you will get a penalty whether you stare at them or not. If the aren't marked, you can look at them all you want. Good tip: don't play with marked cards.

I will say it as well, so that makes two of us. So according to you, the only decks winning right now are this and Blastoise, right? I would be interested to see the evidence for this. Meanwhile, in the real world, Gothitelle Lock wins Norway Nationals, there is an all-Darkrai final at...

It's Prizes that make this an issue. If you can tell what a card is in your Prizes because it is more curved than the rest (maybe by tapping it and feeling how 'springy' it is) you have a marked card situation. It doesn't have to be an important card - the fact that you know where there are two...

The live stream is excellent. Thank you to whoever is responsible.

I love that Chatot. More easily searchable than Tool Scrapper. Deals with that multi-Tool Sigilyph deck, Bangle/Mirror stuff, Garbodor . . . Apart from that, it's just the obvious stuff plus the Trainers. Cradily seems like it's a Garchomp LV X that is much more awkward to use in a format...
