So after yesterdays incident of losing because of 3 factors and because top cut was messed up, I take out my 1-0-1 Noir for a TSD and another Bebe's Search. I feel good after how well my deck did the day before and I expect a good day.
Incase you didn't read my title, I played Gengar. :tongue:
R1 - Lori D. (Dusknoir)
I go first and prevent her from using trainers. She only had one pokemon in play (I don't remember what it was), however next turn I candy and Poltergist FTW.
Win (1-0)
R2 - Luke D. (Mirror)
I get a much better start to his okay start. He falls too far behind and just can't keep up with me as I was now full set up. I think that T3 Claydol did him in when he wasn't able to locate his all game pretty much.
Win (2-0)
R3 - Brian C. (Dusknoir)
I get a really good start as I usually do, however I get him down to 2 prizes and he ends up getting a few as I was forced to ko his Noir Lv. X which I don't like doing to get down to one prize. However I play a Warp Point and he sends up a pokemon that I think he didn't think I could knock out, however I hit him with Uxie for 20 and win the game by taking my final prize. If he doesn't make that mistake it would of been EXTREMELY close.
Win (3-0)
R4 - Mike (Dusknoir/Bronzong)
I know I have a tough matchup, but he makes a few key mistakes and proceeds to lose 6-1/2. Him having a Unown G prized didn't help as he had to put down Azelf which led to a free prize via Gengar.
Win (4-0)
R5 - Darrell M. (Dusknoir)
I start with Baltoy vs his Unown G. He goes first. I have a RC, a Gengar, and an Energy in my hand. I was also lucky enough to have 2 Poke Radar in my hand. I then use the first of the two and whiff completely. I play the second one and rip a Gastly and my ONE Unown Q. I proceed to T1 him.
Win (5-0)
I am the first seed and we have a Top 4.
T4 - Eric (Kingdra)
G1 - In this game he starts with Unown G. I believe he goes first and plays down a horsea he topdecked. He retreats and then attaches G to Horsea. I attach and I have to retreat so that I can stop him from using trainers. He then evoles to Seadra but has no energy. I attach to Gastly and proceed to use Pitch-Dark for the third straight turn. He draws fails on the Speed Staduim he played on turn 2 and passes. I RC into Gengar and Poltergist for 150 on my 3rd turn and the win.
G2 - He chooses to go 2nd. I go first and attach to the Gastly that I started with to his Horsea. I use Pitch Dark. He draw, attaches to Horsea and smokescreens. I then RC into Gengar and Poltergist for 150 on my 2nd turn FTW.
So, I win in T4 in a total of 5 turns.
Win (6-0/7-0)
T2 - Darrell M. (Dusknoir)
G1 - I get a great start to his awful start. I am able to build a huge advantage by just sniping his bench. He is able to get around my Gengar by hitting me with a Uxie and returning it to the deck. He scoops when I only have 2 prizes to his like 5 and he sees I have the game in less than 2 turns. The one issue I had was with 3 prizes to go I still had both my Haunters prized which made it difficuly as I wasn't drawing into my rare candies.
G2 - He chooses to go second. I go first and start for the first time with Unown G. I have an Unown Q on the bench. He goes and proceeds to get 2 Dusknoir and still have a good size hand on T1. I go and I am able to somehow get a Gengar up and get a Claydol started. I attach Unown G to Gengar and start sniping his bench. I start getting an advantage in prizes. He starts to Night Spin my Gengar. I am able to take a 2 prize lead when I flip a heads on fainting spell. After I take another prize and I hit my second heads in a row for Fainting Spell, he conceeds as time expires as I have the game in one or two turns as I have a 5-3 prize advantage.
Win (7-0/9-0)
So, I win going undefeated. I went 13-1 this weekend with Gengar losing my one game only because I had an awful lucky on some flips and some draw. I fix this and my list becomes much better.
Props -
Lori D. for driving me to the event.
James for helping me test and helping me with testing
Dustin for helping me test the deck during the week.
Going 13-1 this weekend and most likely gaining about 81 points during the weekend. :biggrin:
Slops -
The JETS losing to the 49ers and collapsing in their last two games. As some would say "You're Better Than That!!"
