ok, I'm bored and it's kinda dead in here anyway, so lets make a report :D

The day before the tournament I had school and went out and such, so I had 20 minutes to build a deck, I made Scizor EX, Magcargo, Gorebyss.
I forgot a lot of things (switch, ATM rock, 1 cargo UF (i played 3-3 cargo))
and my deck still wasnt complete yet (i played the wrong unowns and such, I wanted to play MAXI because it's the name of my gf.
etc etc

I travelled for 5 hours, and still I end up half an hour too late at the location >_<

On to the matches:

Round 1 vs Arnold A
Too late, match loss
0-1

Round 2 vs Stephan (Dark ttar and pidgeot)
game 1:
He gets dark ttar (sd) AND pidgeot turn 1, while I start with unown and no energy.
He goes ahead on prizes, but eventually i draw energy, and make a wish + PETM for scizor ex and magcargo, from there I search for metal and I knock out 3 ttars and 2 pidgeots with my scizor, I win.

game 2:
This time I had a decent start, and he didnt have ttar and pidgeot turn 1, however, this time, he focus his attention to my bench, which was full with gorebyss and cargo at that time.
He is only 10 damage away from winning when I KO the last ttar, GG.

1-1

Round 3 vs Kevin V (butterfree swarm)
Game 1 & 2: I attach 2 metal to scizor ex and become INVULNERABLE muwahahahahah!
2-1

Round 4 vs Mirja V (Zapturndos)
Game 1: I start awesome and I KO the voltorb with 2 energy on my second turn.
from there, zapdos is a piece of cake :D
Game 2: We both start ok, turn 2 is scizors vs zapdosses, i made some terrible mistakes, however It looks like scizor kills zapdos, but when she flips heads 3 times for her super scoops, and puts down the 7th or 8th zapdos, I lose.
Game 3: She gets the standard setup again, only this time I correct my mistake from game 2, attach all metal to 1 scizor EX, she cant KO scizor, and I get ahead on prizes, eventually, she uses electrode HL to KO scizor, which gets me on 2 prizes total,
and now we both have nothing to do heavy damage with.
I build up a gorebyss to do 60 damage with, and use reversal twice to get one of her damaged zapdosses active, in the last minute of that round :)
GG!!!

At this time, I really couldnt remember how many games we had played >______<
She told me I won, but I wanted to play sudden death anyway (SD vs zapturndos is stupid, but challenging)

SD:
she gets another zap turn dos setup, and I start with lone slugma and 6 energy O_O
she charges, and I collect for an magcargo!! lol
she plays zapp for the KO, but it appears she misses a 3rd energy so she uses Rockets admin >_____<
this shuffled my DRE, and magcargo back in my deck.
luckily, she didnt get her 3rd energy, so I get another turn.
I topdeck POR!, lol, I'm so lucky sometimes :')
I get steven, cargo, and 3 random cards out of this, and I use cargo to put DRE on top of my deck.
I pass, she didnt topdeck energy again, and passes too.
I draw my DRE, and use smooth over + steven to grab me a reversal :D
I flip heads and deal 40 damage to voltorb.
GG!!
3-1

Round 5 vs Martin V (Ludicargo/lanturn)
Game 1: Martin gets a perfect start, but no energy. (so it seems)
I start godly, and I use steel wing from turn 2.
He then scrambles for 90 with lanturn, I KO lanturn, and he puts ludicolo active.
He scrambles again, but since I didnt bench anything (bless me), he could only do 20 damage or so.
I have enough damage to KO ludicolo in one shot, although he plays a new battle frontier every turn.
I search for island cave every turn with cargo.
I get ahead on prizes, and I bench my scizor for a final KO.
He then uses ATM rock on magcargo to KO scizor and 3 metals :(
I use gorebyss to get another 2 prizes, and evolve to scizor ex again.
he uses happy dance ludicolo for the KO, I use reversals, both fail, but I just steel wing his ludicolo to death.
Game 2:
He starts with 3 lotad, I start perfect again, and I just use magcargo to search for reversals, and scizor to KO every lombre before they could evolve to ludicolo.

4-1

well, at least I didnt lost a game, but I got 2nd.
Martin V (round 5) won the tournament.

props to Erik and Anna for the organisation, and martin for winning and driving me all the way to amsterdam :D
 
I Played Espeon-ex/Gorebyss/Cargo with Plusle Yay !

I won round 1, 2 and 3, but lost the last two rounds :p.
The most funniest was round 3 vs Zapturndos, where i won thanx to plusle, he wooped a Zapdos-ex and an Electrode-ex so i could get my last 4 prizes.
