Round table pizza
Milwaukie Oregon

I start my day by waking up and getting ready for BR. I decided that luxchomp felt consistent for me to use i used very low luxray and garchomp lines to add a 1-1 blaziken for early disruption and fast damage output early game

so I grab my bag, pokewalker, DS, and MP3 then left

I get there early and hang with some friends and wait for round 1

Round 1 vs Griffen with mirror (no blaziken)

I was nervious playing mirror early, but I open with a garchomp start to his crobat start i 2HKO his crobat with a belted garchomp he couldnt get his garchomp into play but he decides to belt his luxray a try to take on chomp. I spray his bright look, he didnt know how crucial garchomp was in the match so seince he didnt know i start a sweep with garchomp and win the 1st round.

1-0

Round 2 vs Jozef with mirror (once again no blaziken)

he opens with a luxray to my chomp he goes first, attach, and pass. I go and get 2 crobats and a uxie from collector play both crobats put luxray at 60 left then i poke turn one crobat, lay back down leaving luxray at 50, I DCE garchomp, play lots of crap down and try to uxie for 4 I thank and got the belt for Donk

2-0

so it was lunch i go get my pizza and share some with eleki.

Round 3 vs noob with charizard

early game i get a nice start with a turn 2 dragon rush then go to luxray bring up and kill it was a easy match but during the match i realized that he didnt set out prizes so i get a judge and i turns out he searched once through his deck from charmander for CFF, he didnt get a game loss for it.

3-0

Round 4 vs Eleki with HoPe

i dont believe this i get triple poke turn start with collector so he opens with krow to my bat so he goes first attach and pass i go collector for luxray, bat, and uxie so i drop bat and luxray then triple poke turn bat on bench for a totel of 4 damage counters on krow then i uxie for bout 6 pulled the DCE and DONK

4-0

so i play 2 more games for fun agianst Eleki and i donk his lone uxie start

in game 2 it came down to me having 2 prizes to his 4 i play a nrg on shuppet (2 nrg already) belt, evo to banette, and lonelyness with no pokes in hand to his belted mewtwo GG

so finals was called and i went X-0 and paired against Eleki for top 2

T2 vs Eleki with HoPe

I get a decent start but I lost horribly in this match becasue i got looker to the face which sucks cuz i lost all my stuff and he sweeps me in both games and in game 2 i was stupid to thank that i can bring back shuppet with aarons

Props
top 2
2 donks for the day
nice pulls such as T-tar prime, SSU, and RC

Slops
me thanking stupid bout aarons
LOOOOOOOOKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSSS

i will post my salem report tomarrow so cya then ;)


May 23, 2010
Borderlands games
Salem, Oregon

I change my list and take out the Blaziken to fill in the luxray and garchomp line I get my bag, poke walker, and deck then head out the door around 10

I get there and there are 4 rounds and a top 2 i hang with friends and wait for round 1

Round 1 vs Kyle with LuxChomp

Again i face luxchomp in the 1st round, i get a decent garchomp start to his poor crobat start he cant get nothing going but he goes for luxray instead of chomp i dont care bout luxray and snag prizes with chomp and he goes kills my bat i return the KO and kill luxray with croak from there it was GG
1-0

Round 2 vs Olliver with sabelock

okey i get a very poor start to his turn 1 double heads on initive and did i mention that my CHATOT WAS PRIZED?!?!?!?!
i get a good top deck into a garchomp to snipe some crucial stuff and i get a uxie to keep my self at a good hand
i barely draw into the banette to kill his mewtwo and from there he couldnt do much
2-0

lunch i go to the salem center mall with lucario123 and some other friends and ate lunch

Round 3 vs noob with stuff

I was a bit surprized by facing him and how he got 2-0 but whateves

I get a good garchomp and luxray trade off for KOs GG
3-0

Round 4 vs Harlan with Kingdra

i get a great start with turn 1 luxray call for luxray and lucario and he opens with a double claydol and he couldnt draw into anything so i get a power spray and kill 1 claydol, his turn, power spray his cosmic he pass my turn, i bring up my garchomp and kill claydol for game GG
4-0

okay i get in finals and i have to face olliver and i hate sabelock soooooo much

T2 vs olliver with sabelock

Game 1: he goes and mewtwo walls me and I figure out taht both my psychic are prized so that sucks while he goes and mewtwo walls me so i try to make him thank im going to setup banette and he gets to much of a prize lead by getting 3 prizes off with mewtwo so when he sees the shuppet hit the bench he goes and colletors which made me happy so i can kill somfin and reach for my prized psychic but i azelf to rearrange my prizes and kill his chomp he goes and does stuff and kills my garchomp with his mewtwo, I go and get a KO on mewtwo with a belted banette and he kills banette with a honckrow for game

Game 2: i cant rly remember much bout this match but in the end he killed my shuppet so i couldnt kill his mewtwo so GG
4-1

props

Guardian games
portland Oregon

a week before i decided to run HoPe and felt successful with it (to people who dont know wat hope is, its honchkrow, blaziken, staraptor, and mewtwo, yes it works.) anyways i get a ride off of paul and head for the tourny LOL eleki kept sniping robin with a pen

round 1 vs Riley with jumpluff

i get a decent set up and go for a staraptor turn 2 with honkrow searching everything out and once i did that i double mime shuppet + blaziken bring up claydol pretty much GG
1-0

round 2 vs Eleki with mirror

i rly screwed up this game when i had a god start i could have had turn 2 raptor grabing stuff but i just was a idiot and attach and quick attack when he had everything for blaziken killing raptor rather then that i felt like a idiot and scoop with a terrabad hand but i could have avoided this from happening by retreating to blaziken *facepalm*
1-1

during lunch i got chips and donuts then go watch pauls DS match

round 3 vs Magmar?

so i open with honchkrow to magmar and top deck a poketurn so i have 2 poketurns, cyrus, and sp radar so wut i did was
sp radar for bat and get a triple flash bite leaving magmar at 40 then cyrus for egain and nrg then target attack for the win
2-1

round 4 vs Jozef with luxchomp

i got a decent start kill his mewtwo counter turn 2 with blaziken and grabed a couple SP pokemon for power spray one of them was draggy fb and late game i had one prize to his 2 he had a ralts that was gunna kill mewtwo next turn so i see my options on how to win i could try a triple flash bite and jet shoot the luxray but only allowed of 2 drops so that was out of the question, i try to contest hall my promocroak for game but i failed contest hall so after all that i take a good look at the field i see a crobat with 3 damage so i thank and look through my discard and notice my honchkrow and i play a bat down attempt flash bite he sprays i poketurn try again he doesnt spray so i slam my arrons on the table and grab honchkrow and dark i play egain, honchkrow, and dark and take my last prize by sniping crobat VERY GOOD GAME
3-1

round 5 vs Randy with jumpluff

i made alot of misplays in this game cuz i bebes for uxie when i should have got staraptor he gets a lucky judge off and ruins my setup
3-2

so i had a good time at the tourny enjoyed watching elekis game in top 4 and i figured out that i was the highest 3-2 lol and came 5th

eh despite the 3-2 record HoPe is a very good deck it CAN win

June 6, 2010
the coaching center
eugene oregon

i almost slept in thank god i didnt miss my ride :p
i get there hang with friends and wait for round 1 im playing HoPe BTW

Round 1 vs Jozef with luxchomp

i get a good start to his average start so i go with the flow and see wat hes doing i lookers him 1 point and at the end i kill his azelf with target attack that he put damage on with flash impact
1-0

round 2 vs ezra with mother gengar

i have complete advantage in the game by sniping baltoy early and taking a good 5 prize lead then he gets a mewtwo for last resort when i banette it
2-0

round 3 vs paul with donphan prime,typlosion prime,ursering prime, mt gyarados

i get a very nice start to his crapy one and i sweep and kill his baltoy and luring flame his claydol at one point
3-0

round 4 vs robin with sablelock

i get a good turn 2 hand but he let looses my hand and i get crap he gets a EQ off with garchomp c to my lone azelf
i go and draw nothing and pass he EQ
3-1

so when hand my deck in they found out that my list was at 55 cards and i couldnt play my energy gains and expert belts so i just didnt play and took 2nd
3-2


June 12, 2010
Rivals fantesy games
Hillsboro Oregon

i love HoPe so i decide to play it, i wake up with a stuffy nose :(
i get there bout a hour early the store wasnt open untill 10:00 and there was no one there at bout 40 min after 10 lol so i talk with jacob and check out some of the sprites that he made. so when it was like 11:40 eleki showed up which was cool i talk to him till the tourny start

Round 1 vs Eleki with Mirror

i get a cruddy start by knowing both of my honchkrow g are prized :( but i did some great banette stuff and he made a misplay thinking that honchkrow able to 2HKO banette but i was able to put a damage and use damage switch to kill honchkrow and from there and when he had 3 prizes i had 1 time called sorry bout that eleki i hate winning on time :(
after time was called we played the rest out for fun and he would have won in the next few turns with a belted blaziken i was unable to kill
1-0

round 2 vs Olliver with garchomp SV

i get a mime start and didnt land a supporter in like 2 turns detials are a bit fuzzy tho cuz it was a long game but i do remember in the end i should have pay attention by attaching nrgs on raptor to kill a chomp for my last prize but i didnt so whateves i just psych him out acting like the crobat drops were gunna kill his chomp LOL
1-1

i get M&Ms, chips, and soda for lunch i hang with jozef and watch his DS match

Round 3 vs n00b with fossils

i get a good honchkrow lead an kill whatever fossil that appears on bench and take a straght sweep
2-1

Round 4 vs newb with flygon and crap

i see baltoy in the begining i kill it and he has crap and trys to retreat to a hippowdon and attack but his lil trapinch wuz in the way i just target attack away while setting up blaziken
3-1

so i look at all 3-1s and see what there opponents were

me (L 4-0, W 3-1, W 2-2, and W 2-2)
Elelki (L 3-1, W 2-2, W 2-2, and W 2-2)
Kyle (L4-0, W2-2, W 2-2, and W 2-2)

so i wouldnt believe that i had more of a great opponents win percentage i set up my deck and wait for finals

T2 vs Olliver with Garchomp SV
Game one: this was way to easy i just luring flame his dol and snipe his baltoy he had only one garchomp in play at the end and once i killed it he conseed.
Game two: i get a mid-good hand by top decking a cyrus on draw one of a mulligan that he had, but i was able to keep a nice power lock agaisnt him and when i had 3 prizes to his 5 he scooped sience he used all his DCE on retreating claydols and warp points
4-1

IWIN

Props

so i go and turn my deck list in and wait for round 1

Round 3 vs Robin with sablock

before the match they anouced that they were gunna give half a booster box to someone by anoucing pop Id's and wudayaknow i got called for a booster box which was cool i gave one to robin, paul, stephen, and jozef anyways onto the match. i start with sableye to his sableye i go first and attach and overconfedent so i can avoid being donked by crobat drops btw i had cyrus and roseannes but he goes and im praying he doesnt go and judge or giratina let loose but he doesnt, thank god so i go and roseannes for raptor and honchkrow then i just retreat to honchkrow and grab spray and sp radar he goes and knows my spray i think he impersonates me for judge but i land a cyrus *YES* and keep up and from here he tryed getting double chomp but it was difficult cuz i had draggy fb waiting on bench and ambipom g so from there i just do some shuppet tricks, so does he i kill somfin with honchkrow (crobat i believe) i cant remember much but time called when i had 2 prizes to his 3 but we continue i get draggy up there he was unable to kill it, oh and btw during when time called he was about to make it sudden death by killing unown q on bench with his honchkrow but i spray the crobat so thats how i won i believe

T2 vs Jozef with luxchomp

Game 1: i get a mewtwo start :( and had to let him kill it but i promocroak his luxray and we trade off prizes then it came to a point that if i would promocroak his luxray he would kill my promocroak with shuppet but instead i make a boss move and triple crobat his luxray and mach blow with draggy fb but next turn with a five card hand he hid a dce the whole game and belted his chomp for game GG

Game 2: i choose to go second he opens with a cario and crobat start i lookers his hand and get honchkrow with spray and sp radar getting ready next turn to staraptor but he top decks roseannes and gets double uxie i spray both and he ends i go and did some stuff he says "Im gunna top deck cyrus" i loled a bit and went to draggy fb and mach blow his crobat he goes and guess what HE FREKIN TOP DECKS CYRUS?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
