Alex Hill, Chris Bianchi, Ryan Vergel, and yours truly, Zach Fisher, headed out from Tallahassee at about 4:30 or 5 am Saturday morning, or, our Friday night. You see, we didn't sleep. We don't do that much.
I filled out my Banette ex decklist and was ready, but apparently SOMEONE decided it should be rotated! What mockery is this!? Rotating such a broken card!? That's all I'd tested, so I played the easiest deck I could think of (with no playtesting obv) and ran Blissey/Lucario.
Round 1 - Alex Hill - Meganium/Stuff
We drive 5 hours so that I can play my roommate? Also, he has a VERY good matchup against my deck. I start with Riolu vs. his Spoink. I get a t2 Lucario and just donk him from there. SORRY BOO! (i won)
Round 2 - Eric Craig - Meganium/Stuff
His deck COMPLETELY counters mine. How awesome! I get complete crap and lose a t2 wager which completely screws me. His t2 meganiumS didn't help either against my chansey swarm. (i lost)
Round 3 - ? - Blissey/Garchomp/Jank
I get up a Blissey and steemroll through 6 prizes. (i won)
Round 4 - Elia Cabrera - Shiftry ex pk/Milotic d
Elia is a cool pokemom who drove me to win states last year. She didn't get setup at all and my t2 lucarios didn't help much either. (i won)
Round 5 - Jokerboy - Garchomp
Right before the round I told him that I was praying I'd play him. Lucky me! The autowin didn't go quite as expected when I found out that i had a blissey and chansey prized along with 2 cessations. It got to a point where i HAD to rip a pluspower to win. My only draw was wager. I LOSE the wager. First card...fighting energy...2nd card...riolu...3rd card....PLUSPOWER! gg from there. WE MADE IT UP TO YOU AFTER THE GAME BRO!
Round 6 - Dave Hubbs - Blissey/Delcatty
dave is a good player, but i SHOULD win this matchup without too much trouble. however, when you have 3 lucario and 2 cessation prized it makes things more difficult. combine that with the fact that the only supporter i played all game was a t1 mentor and drew into nothing but great balls and you have a loss. gg dave! (i lost)
I got 5th.
SUNDAY
I play straight Blissey because it's ridiculous!
Round 1 - I GET A GAME LOSS BECAUSE WE WERE 5 MINUTES LATE TO THE EVENT DUE TO INCORRECT DIRECTIONS GIVEN BY MAPQUEST AND THE VENUE OWNER!
Round 2 - ? - All i saw were 4 carvanha d. (i won)
Round 3 - One of the best games of Pokemon i've played in a while. It got down to the wire and i missed a CRUCIAL flip on TSD which ended up costing me the game. i had 1 prize left, he had 2, and all i needed was another blissey to win, but i could only get back a chansey with TSD. one more heads plz!! gg jim! (i lost)
Round 4 - ? - Blissey/TTar ex d
I get up one blissey and take 6 quick prizes. (I won)
Round 5 - cool guy - Empoleon/Octillery/Mantine
This deck was better than I thought. There was a point where i legitimately feared losing. I missed SIX turns of energy! Then i topdecked a boost and won the game from there. (i won)
