spookees said:What a Day!!
We started the Tournament on time at high Noon.....with the largest turnout for Arizona 60 players.
6 rounds with cut to top 8 in the 15+, 11-14 and cut to top 2 in the 10 and under.
At the end of the 6 rounds we did have a tie in the 15+ (for two of the top 8 spots) we ran a playoff for those spots which lengthened the tournament for this age group, Thanks to everyone for being so patient. We finally got done alittle after 8pm.
Congratulations to everyone .......There were so many great matches once again (and by the looks of the list of winners below, it was the GIRLS who swept up the trophies in EVERY age group! )CONGRATULATIONS

What a great tourney. Props go out to spookees and Lugia's Realm for running the thing, and to Gamer's Edge for hosting (and for not evicting us to the courtyard when the final rounds ran long). Major props to Bin for giving me one of the most intense matches I've ever played. You had the entire 15+ age group quaking in the days leading up to the tourney, and you definitely lived up to your reputation.
The top decks in the 15+ age group were Dragtrode w/ Pidgeot (Drageotrode?) and Rock-Lock, but going into the finals we had everything from Zapdos to Gardevoir to Monarchy. I think the top 2 decks in 11-14 were Ampharos and Salamence--unfortunately, I didn't get to watch that match, but I hear it was a good one. Ditto the 10- finals.
Congrats to everyone who played, and hope to see you all at Regionals in a couple of months!

Well from what I've seen out of some of Team Heat lately I won't have to bring much, except maybe a lunch. I'll have plenty of time between rounds after I mop the floor with all those tech decks your all playing.BLiZzArD said:Are you dropping the gauntlet "old man"? Are you calling us out?
