Also, the matches may be out of order.

Round 1: Washington[Crobat/Gengar]
He got 3 prizes ahead.. but when he couldn't get set up and ran out of Poke Turns, I had my 2 Cress and Queen set up and took the next 6 prizes.
gg
[1-0]

Round 2: Mondak[GGW]
Great Guy. I was glad to finally meet him. :thumb:
It was an interesting game, I lost 2-0 in prizes, but I am really suprised I got that far considering I drew 2 Supporters the whole game lol.:lol:
gg
[1-1]

Round 3: Patricia[Blaziken]
She had a bad start and I did Cresselia Lock so I could get set up and knock out her lone Rayquaza. GG and it was nice meeting you.
gg
[2-1]

Round 4: Guy[Luxray I think]
He T1'd me with an Uxie.
gg... I suppose.
[2-2]

So I need to win every game. and I am pretty sure I played my way out of an invite. But No way I am gonna drop.

Round 5: Mamoswine/Weavile
He started with 2 Sneasel, and I was like... NOOO He got a bad start, and I was able to set up and win the game without attacking Mamoswine once.
gg
[3-2]

Round 6: Gigas
I get a bad hand, however my Toxicroak G promo saves the day and allows me to get set up so I can win the game. gg Nice guy.
[4-2]

Round 7: Ben S.[Luxape]
This was a close game and I was playing from behind the whole time. I did get it to 2-2 and then he was up 2-1,he ko'd my Queen RR with his Ditto LA. I blower up a Baltoy GE for a turn since I figured he was gonna get his Ape x out and ko me ftw, then I brought up gengar and sniped his Bronzong G for ko. He shadow Rooms my Claydol GE, and I cosmic for 6 and get The Unown G for another turn. I attack something random and then he attacks my Cress x, I draw. I play a Pokeblower+ and get heads, I put 1 counter on his Baltoy GE, move a counter with Cress x, then Shadow Room the Baltoy for game. Very Great Game.:thumb:
[5-2]

Round 8: Frankie D.[Machamp]
I am lucky I got another basic other I would have lost Turn 1. He takes the early lead and I was just buying time until he ran out of Switches[He used Palkia Lv. x so he can bring up Pokemon and OHKO]. After he did I used Cress/Shadow Room to take 3 Prizes in a row, then Blower'd up and Uxie and Ko'd it with Moon Skip for game.
gg.
[6-2]

Top 64 Pod 1:
Benjamin[DPL]
Game 1: I scoop after 3 locks in a row.

Machump, Macheap, and then you accidentally came up with a new nickname for the card. It was nice seeing you again though. Hope to see you in San Diego, man.
 
Yeah, I know lol.
And for everyone: People were saying invites were down to person #35 right now[so idk].
 
Did you play like 12 BRs and nats or somethin? 63-10 is an INSANE record and should net you an invite anytime.

Props for the record and hope you'll get an invite!
 
what was up with the 4-2-3 Gengar?? lol nice job you beat 2 INSANE players at the end. wow i would consider myself a top cutter if i beat Frankie and Ben. Congrats on Top 64/128 or whateva it was!
 
Nice job man. Sad you missed an invite like that. :(
Ohh well, there's always next year I guess. :|
 
burden: lol.. In playing I never really found myself having to use 4 Gengar's, and it never really hurt me when one was prized, so i figured that i would just go with 3. I am suprised I went 6-3 really.. considering I changed my deck at 2 AM and didn't test it at all lol. Also, it was great meeting them, they were 2 great guys and I hope to play them again in the future.

Christian: it's all good. I was glad that I even had the opportunity to go to the event and see my friends[which is cooler than actually playing in the event, IMO].

Greg: always awesome hanging out with you, and I fell down laughing when I heard you pants'd Justin. :lol:

Thanks for the props, and right back at ya buddy. We've had a great season building and playing together and I'm so glad you were able to make it out to Nationals.

I lol'd so hard at your Champ vs T-tar game Sunday night.
 
Great job Josh, if anyone deserves an invite, it's you. I really hope you get it some how. :(

On a more positive note, Team Hatter had a really solid showing at nats! Just think what we can do next year. :D
 
Yeah, it was cool that we had a T8 person in each division. :D
Pika: There are many people I know who deserve invites more than I do, I figure eventually my time will come to get one.
