Hey.
Here is a report for you.
I like Excadrill, he's a pretty cool guy. Eh digs up stuff from your graveyard and doesn't afraid of anything.
My List?
Eureka, MO Battle Roads 2012.
Round 1 - Colin M w/Zoroarkrai
I open lone Drilbur going first, and have no supporters. I attach and Hone Claws to put pressure on him if he tries to Ascension(PlusPower and Scratch would KO Zoroark, Excadrill would also KO Zoroark). He attaches to a Zorua and passes, leaving a Sneasel active. I get no supporters and no way of finding another basic Pokemon. I KO his Sneasel with Scratch, he gets some pokemon and KOs my only Drilbur.
0-1
Yuck.
Round 2 - Ian(Raen) w/ZekEels
Open Terrakion to his Tynamo, going first. Attach energy and pass. He gets a TornadusEX out but can't find a DCE/Skyarrow or another Tynamo. I get a turn and KO his Tynamo. He whiffs with his Tornadus for a few turns and benches 2 Tynamos. I play some Crushing Hammers KO more Tynamos. More whiffs from him, and I'm doing damage to his Tornadus. Finally when he started attacking for prizes, his Tornadus already had 100 on it. At some point he Portrait'd a BlackBelt so he could OHKO a Terrakion with Tornadus, but I was so far ahead at that point that he couldn't catch up.
1-1
Round 3 - Steve Sw/DarkraiSmeargle
I forget who goes first, but I know I pulled ahead pretty early by KOing Darkrais. He didn't play a fighting counter, but was very good about playing around my EXPshares. Ended up KOing Darkrai, and then 2 Smeargles with Back to Back Dig Uppercuts that put awesome things(Catchers I think), back in my hand. He comes close to decking, and needs a Catcher to keep me from KOing a Darkrai for my last prize. Doesn't get it, with 6 cards in his deck. KO Darkrai for game.
2-1
We had a random lunchbreak. Some friends were talking about John R's KlinklangEX deck(which was 3-0 I think at this point) while we ate, and came up with a few ideas of our own.
Round 4 - Andrew K w/ZekEels
More Tornaduses come out, but unlike Raen's, Andrew didn't seem play/find any Eviolites for them. I took 4 Prizes off of random weak stuff, and he took 4 as well. On his 5th prize, I BlackBelt Retaliate his Damaged TornadusEX to put it to 140. His field had a Zekrom with No energy, one Eel and the Tornadus. He tries to Retreat out of it, but my Excadrill was ready to Snipe the Tornadus for game.
3-1
Top Cut, I'm fourth Seed. Colin and John R are 3 and 4, and the first seed is a Gentleman from Columbia with DarkraiSmeargle(with Terrakion)
Top 4 - Gentleman w/DarkraiSmeargle
Game 1:
He extends hard, and almost ends up decking himself. He kept portraiting my Junipers and Ns when we were both at 6. My Terrakions were a bit tough for him, so he decides to go Aggro Mewtwo. I Black Belt and Double PlusPower to KO his Damaged Mewtwo and clean up from there.
Game 2:
Similar to Game 1, but he didn't extend as hard. Both ended up with a dead hands in the begining but I was able to power up my Terrakion to start taking prizes. He hit me for 110 with a Darkrai, but I KO'd it right back. He tried to Portrait, my only supporter was a BlackBelt(which could've allowed his Heatmor to KO my damaged Darkrai, but he didn't have the energy to do so). I had better field presence and the game was over pretty quickly after that.
Top 2 - Colin w/Zoroarkrai
I was ready for revenge for that bad game in the first round.
Game 1:
Going second, open with lone Drilbur. He ascends. I destroyed some energy with Hammer, and get some more basics. He Weaviles me, I try to Dig Up a Juniper back into my hand. He Weaviles me again and my hand is dead and my Excadrill is also. Top decks are Junk so I SSU my only Pokemon. Perfect!
Game 2:
I go first, leading with Terrakion. Take control of the game, his Weaviles come too late to stop me. Can't find a catcher all game(3 were Prized), but didn't need them. Hooray for weakness!
Game 3:
I go second, lead with Terrakion. Deja Vu from the our Round 1 game. My Hand: Fighting Fighting Fighting Excadrill Super Rod Terrakion Lost Remover. His hand not great either, but he gets some basics and Ascends with a Sp. Dark. Attach, destroy energy and pass. He cant get the energy to attack or retreat. Top deck more Fighting energy. Attach and pass. He still cant attack. Top deck BlackBelt. Attach and KO Zoroark. Prize is another Excadrill. He gets some things going and finds Dark Claw, several basics, a Sp Dark and Patches to get his 2nd Zoroark doing 150.
Hooray. Excadrill got 2nd.
Nothing really in my packs.
Only thing left to do is Props and Slops.
Props:
BlackBelt.
Slops:
BlackBelt.
