CMT Challenge-
Well, we left around 11 and drove to Kenosha, WI for the first Charizard Master Trainer challenge at J Dub’s card store. I decided to refine my Rock Lock last night and play that in the tourney. Pooka was already there when we got there, and we played 4 practice games. He had a new deck, which was Metagross/Metagross ex/Registeel ex. I won 1 out of those 4. Bad starts kill rock lock. After awhile Abe, Ice’Cold, Bullados, and ST Pika showed up.
First Round vs. ST Pika
I had an OK start. He got out Ludicolo, and I powered up my Dark Amphy to knock it out. I powered up a Dark TTar, and when we went to sudden death, I used Rocket’s Tricky Gym and Sand Damage to KO the Jirachi on his bench, which had 40 damage on it.
1-0
Second Round vs. Pooka
Another OK start. He couldn’t really get going, and a took some early prizes. I used the other Dark TTar to KO 2 of his pokemon towards the end.
2-0
Third Round vs. Ice’Cold
Rock Lock vs. Rock Lock. I knew he was playing his brother Jeffrey’s “faster” version of the Lock. I didn’t have a good start at all, so it was a bad game.
2-1
Fourth Round vs. Bullados
He had a really slow start and some bad luck. I flipped heads twice when his lone Dratini put me to sleep, and I turn 3 Pidgeot’ed him with a QS for DRE.
3-1
Fifth Round vs. Ice’Cold
Hmm….again?! OK…well another crap start. I gave up after about 4 turns. I know that once rock comes out it keeps killing till they’re dead. So anyways, I just kinda fooled around with the deck and tried to mess with adam’s head. He caught me trying to evolve my sparce into a dark ttar…that would’ve been great.
3-2
Good enough for second place behind adam.
