I get there, trade for a few cards, edit my deck, then get registered.
21 seniors, 5 rounds, top 4.

Round one vs. IDK w/luxchomp.
We both have terribad starts and don't get anything rolling by about turn six.
I get a gengar out and start sniping.
He gets luxray out and does 60 to gengar.
I knock out luxray.
He puts down crobat, and then seekers, then he uses bannette PL to finish off my gengar while bypassing fainting spell and rescue energy.
I get a haunter, he dragon rushes it.
I put a gastly on the bench, he knocks it out somehow. (i don't remember, it was a long day.)
My last gastly is prized, i scoop.
GG
0/1


Round two vs. girl w/kingchamp
I get out two gengar SF and sweeeeeep.
GG, though.
1/1

I eat chick fil' a.

Round three vs. Matthew w/awesome keclieon rogue.
I t2 get out 2 gengars and vileplume(I was surprized, too.)
He struggles to knock them out, i roll heads on every fainting spell flip.
His fatal mistake was attaching expert belt to his keclieon a little too early.
GG.
2/1

Round four vs. Mychal Bryan w/mirror.
He stars out the game saying "I'm a noob, this is my first tourney."
I say "you're 3-0...." We go through a massive prize exchange and near the end we're 2-2 in terms of prizes.
He uses gengar prime to lost zone my last gengar.
I can't draw into palmer's and I realize my last haunter is prized
so i scoop.
He then reveals to me that he in fact got 2nd at words this year! (how could i not recognize him?!)
He tells me i have a great deck and that this was probably his best game of the entire marathon.
I take that as a compliment and say "thanks." I remember that since he got 2nd at worlds, he automaticly gets an invite for this year. I tell him, similing; "i'm gonna get revenge at worlds"
He says: "Make that your goal and we'll see, you may win."
GG
2/2

I came to this tourney mainly for points, so i play one more round knowing i won't make the cut.

round five vs. Tristin w/donchamp.
I get out two gengars and sweeeep!
GG, though.




PROPS:
Talking to jason K.
Talking to michael pramawat.
Playing michal bryan.
Probably gaining a few points.

SLOPS:
My first tournament in the season there's a top 4 and I don't make the cut.:nonono:

Thanks!
@ oliver and porii: I hope you guys do great in this season.

Sorry porii, i ran out of thanks for today so I can't thank your post.:frown:
 
^It's no prob.

Hey, are you actually gonna play Vilegar all season? Cuz you keep switching decks like every 5 seconds :lol:
 
btw I like the metagame in your area!

Lot's of nice rogues and stuff! Much better than the Vilegar/Luxchomp/Gyarados filled boring metagame we have in TX...:/
 
Aw... You beat Kaitlen. D:

Congrats on going 3-2. I played Mycheal Bryan twice while I was still there. He always says that he's a noob to his opponent. Probably to be funny I guess. Who won that tourny?
 
not really. he was kind of a mamas boy. when all of the team usa vgc players were hangin out together he was alone with his mom.
 
yah he did. he lost to me in the final round of the vgc worlds 2009 which got him out of getting any prizes
 
that mychael b guy is a jerk i met him and he almost got me disqualified from worlds

how, what happened?

I'm gonna go ahead and guess that the kid running D-Chomp won.
 
It's not to be funny, it's so that you go into your game confident thinking you're playing someone who's not that good. He does the same "strategy" for VGC's two years ago - I asked him if he knew what EV's were, and he told me he didn't. What a lie that was...

But it is a legit strategy...
 
Mychael is a good kid. If anyone should have a problem with him, pretty sure that person would be me.
 
i would have problems to. if it wasnt for him i would have benn 2nd or 1st at nats. but i do understand that your pain is greater
