My bro and I had nothing to do, so we decided to go to battle roads in Las Vegas, Nevada. I decided to go with Mismagius, and Honchkrow (don't ask). My bro went with Rampardos and Machamp (makes more sence than my deck, huh?). We met with DukeFireBird at the tournament, lent cards around, and we were ready to go.

Round 1 me vs toxicroak/heracross: We each got set up early with my ching vs an early heracross. I let him take the early lead 3/6 prizes. I put a scramble on my Honchkrow, got 3 murkrows out, and just started powning. It eventually got down to 1/2 prizes (me winning). All he had was a toxicroak out, so I sent up Mismagius, played Lake Boundary, and then I smashed for 120. gg sir 1/0

Round 1 my bro vs random psychic deck: Machop vs chingling start. Opponent misplayed, and got Bebe instead of mentor. They got Poochyena. Then they misplayed again and got another bebe which ended up getting Mightyena ex. My bro koed the Chingling which made Mightyena ex come up. My bro then attacked Mightyena ex with machop for the game. 1/0

Round 2 me vs Duskqueen (aka queenhatter): I quickly killed their only nidoqueen with Mismagius. They couldn't recover. They just sent up random pokemon for my Honchkrow to kill. 2/0

Round 2 my bro vs random n00b: N00b wasn't able to do anything against my bro's quick Machamp. 2/0

Round 3: me vs gatr/eggs: I started with a lone chimecho vs her lone Holon's Castform. I attached an energy, then I used Strange Bell. She attached an energy, and attacked. She flipped tails for the loss. I forgot to tell her after the game that Castform's attack wouldn't had done anything even if she flipped heads. 3/0

Round 3 my bro vs something that uses chingling: My bro's opponent went first. He just attacked and ended his turn. My bro played rare candy to get a Rampardos, attached a Double Rainbow Energy to Rampardos, and then he attacked. 3/0

Round 4 me vs Mario: He simply had a lone Machop vs my team of Murkrows and one Chingling. I let him ko the Chingling. I sent up a Murkrow, evolved my benched murkrow into a honchkrow, attached a scramble energy to honchkrow, and then I attached a pluspower to the active Murkrow. :biggrin: 4/0

Round 4 my bro vs rhyperior/nidoqueen: Close game, but my bro decked out. He doesn't want to talk about the game that much. 3/1

We found out that juniors had no top cut. My bro won a battle roads for the first time ever. I had to split down to top 2 though. I faced the Mario deck again.

Finals me vs Mario: Same thing that happened in our past game happened again, but this time, it was a lone riolu. 5/0

Our second game was much more interesting. Honchkrow did most of the work for me. I just kept it (and its murkrow slaves) attacking. After I killed the first Machamp, he couldn't recover. He tried to stall me with sableye, but I retreated and smashed for the game. 6/0

I actually won with a deck that no one else thought of. :biggrin:
