Worlds 2013 coverage

[Jason]

Just a heads up to anyone who wanted to keep up with the goings on at Worlds. Ace Trainer Australia is doing coverage for Worlds like they did for US Nats, collecting tweets from various players and providing a place for chat and eventually stream from the official stream.

Thought some people might want to get updates as they were coming in. http://www.acetrainerau.com/live/world-championships-2013/

And of course you can see the results and pairings for each round at

but it's not up-to-the-minute.

Jason, who are you to do coverage ??!

 

[SheepInSpace]

At what time do the top4 start tomorrow, please?

At what time do the top4 start tomorrow, please?

Probably not going to be Streamed. More than likely, they're going to stream the 3 VGC Finals matches, then the Jr/Sr TCG T2 matches before getting to the Ma TCG T2 match.

 

[SUPER CHAR]

Wow, Simon Narode (U.S., Plasma's) vs Jason Klaczynski (U.S., Darkrai) in top 2 for masters. I think Jason will get his 3rd today.

 

[King Piplup]

The Plasma does run Lugia, or so I'm told, which could make things interesting.

Jason Klaczynski is in the finals of Worlds...again.

He is one step away from being a three-time World Champion.

Congratulations, Jason Klaczynski!

Worlds next year will be Washington D.C! Shocking!

That's a strange location but hey, it's a 2 hour drive and my brother lives there.

 

[The Pinecone]

Pretty happy to see Darkrai outperform Plasma Basics.

 

[Prime]

Heck, I was just happy to see someone playing Evolutions. Blastoise and Elektrik among a metagame of all basics.

 

[SheepInSpace]

How did Gothitelle fare? I know there wasn't any in Masters top 8.

There weren't even any in the Top 32. That's gonna be a story that has to develop more in the coming future.

That really surprises me. I thought it was difficult to find hard counters to it, and yet it did very poorly.
