Allright, I am still tired from yesterday...but here we go.
24 players - 26 registered and paid, 2 no shows, and one player who did not finish the event....but it did not stop it from being a GREAT DAY!
NO UNDEFEATED PLAYERS IN THE ROOM. That is how fierce the competition was....
Top decks - (will confirm 11-14 2nd)
15+ - What a war of a division -
1st - Newman - WailordEX/12 Fossils - by 2 tiebreaker points -
2nd - Chaddy - Blaziken/Eggs - that loss STILL stings
11-14
1st - Kenny - GardeEX/Garde - great new player - simply WOW
2nd - Roberto - TyphloEX - had some GREAT starts to drive his victory
10-
1st (and 1st overall in the tourney) - Andrew K - GardeEX/Garde/Wobby/Linoone - Dominating
2nd - Zak K - Same deck that took 1st in Chicago - so his brother mirrored it.
Simply put, the day was full of upsets...no player went undefeated, a precon deck with no mods won twice, over great players, several matches would have been different with 1 more minute, just an absolutely perfect pokemon day.
I am really looking forward to St. Louis being a WAR - in 15+, in 11-14 and in 10 and under...more players more competition, bigger prize at stake....
MAJOR PROPS to all the players....all went as perfectly as could be expected. Would have liked for a few more players, but, heh, we get what we can....
MAJOR PROPS to Dizzys...Great bonus prizes, a pack to all players, and bonus promos all around, with great attendence gifts...all players were amazed at the prize level...
NO SLOPS - the event was too great....OK, slops to bad draws and decks that failed to work in some rounds....but that happens every week!
See you all in St. Louis!
