This was my second battle road for the season, and I decided to try out a Kingdra ex variant that I'd built during the week.
Round 1-Seriously, who gets a bye in the first round?
Round 2-against a player with an Eggs deck
I started out with Riolu, and she had 1 eggs. I attach and flip for wild kick. Heads. She tries to hit me with direct hit bomb for nothing. Next turn, I mentor to fill my bench, evolve into Lucario and attach energy. I aura Sphere for KO on eggs, and 20 on the benched. She brings up another eggs, and benches a new one. Hits me for 10 with direct hit bomb. I Aura Sphere again for KO, and 20 onto the other eggs. She brings up number 3, hits me for nothing, and I Aura Sphere for game.
2-0
Round 3-Against Kevin E. and his T-tar MT deck.
The game started out pretty slow, and he got ahead of me for a while. I was able to drop a lake boundary on a fully charged T-tar and OHKO it, bringing me down to 1 prize. He brings up another one, and hits me for 130, leaving me with 10 hp left. I drop down aother lake boundary to get rid of Sidney's, and take out his final T-tar for game.
3-0
Round 4-Against John C. and Empcario.
He was having a really hard time getting out any energy. I just kept hitting until I cleared out his bench.
4-0
With the Bye, I'm currently sitting in first place, and now for top cut.
Round 1 Vs Melissa P and Vire-
Game 1 went really slowly. We were tied prize for prize the entire game. She made a few misplays in the first game that could have caused her to beat me, but didn't. So i ended up destroying her Vire Lv. X for game 1 win. I had a Latios Ex on my bench that she could have sniped with Ray ex, but she didn't.
1-0
Round 2
We end up playing to time, and I'm ahead in prizes at that point.
2-0
I move on to top 2.
Round 1 Vs Denny and Rampcario
We both have a slow setup, but I manage to stay ahead for most of the game, finally winning after taking out his last Ramparados. He didn't notice I had one prize left.
1-0
Round 2
My setup is terrible, and he T2's Ramparados, and sweeps the floor with me.
1-1
Round 3
I know I have the opportunity to come back, and my opening hand is Horsea, seadra, seadra, fighting energy, delta rainbow, switch, and windstorm. Great. I sleepy ball him for 10, and he wakes up, hits me for 30 with riolu. I draw, still no supporters. I evolve into seadra, and smokescreen for 20. He evolves into lucario, and hits me for 40, benching me for game. Just for the **** of it, I draw my next card, and low and behold.....hello Kingdra, so nice of you to join me.
1-2
So I placed 2nd. I'm glad I got as far as I did. I'm proud of Denny. His first year in masters, and he took two battle roads this weekend. Actually swept the one on Sunday that I judged.
Props:
Getting into a top cut.
Kingdra Ex for being awesome
Alleycat Game for having the TFG, and running Macs.
Slops:
Stupid rich Columbus drivers.
Bad hands.
Round 1 byes.
