I get to the place and decide to run Through the Fire and Flames or MagDol+Omastar+Dusknoir .

Round 1 TTFAF vs. Palkia-Darkrai-Sharpedo
I start with pachi and he starts with palkia. He goes first and hits for 10 and I go and CCF. He uses premier ball to get Darkrai Lvl.X and levels his active Palkia up to a Palkia Lvl.X and hits for 10 again. I bench 2 Mags, scramble one, and warp point-I send out a baltoy and he sends out a second palkia with an energy on it. He restructures my scrambled Mag out and I send out his only other bench-the Palkia Lvl.X. He benches a Carvana and hits my Mag for 100. I eventually take out his palkias and the sharpedo with a Flame Bluster and that was it.

1 – 0

Round 2 TTFAF vs. Michael B. (M2) w/ GaG

I get out a pachi T3ish while he is keen eying and getting set up. I make him get set up while I am spreading a whole mess of damage with Fireball Bazooka. He ends up moon skipping for 2 prizes but from there I took out his Kirlia and a Cresselia and Time was called on his turn. He used a celio to get a Ralts which was the ONLY thing that could take a 40 damage and survive but he benched it and passed so I won (the ralts only would have prolonged the game for a turn)

2 – 0

Round 3 TTFAF vs. Dylan B. w/MagDol

I think Dylan’s only loss through states was me in the finals of DE so he’s pretty good.
The game goes like any Mag match would and I was the one who caught up 1 to 3 on prizes and time was called on my turn so I took the win

3 – 0

After time was lunch break but Dylan wanted to finish out the game so I did although I was hungry and Dylan won

Lunch Break

Round 4 TTFAF vs. Ben C. w/ BanDol

He takes the Lead early w/ Spiteful pain taking 2 prizes over a couple of turns while I spread massive amounts of damage. I draw a prize but we both knew time was running out and were constantly begging each other to finish our turns. It gets to my turn where I draw my card, attack and draw 3 prizes and, pass as fast as I could to give him an extra turn. Time ends on his turn and he knows he can’t draw 2 prizes in a turn so he scoops.

4 – 0

Round 5 TTFAF vs. Jarrett J w/Banette

My starting hand has 5 Fire 1 baltoy and some other basic that I start with. He ascensions and passes. I Roseanne for 2 Magmars and pass. He K.Os my active and a bench Mag. In my hand I had a celio, a Magmortar and a scramble so after he killed a magmar I evolved both scrambled the Magmortar and started to set up. We went back and forth but he had 2 prized shuppets which killed him.

5 – 0

Round 6 TTFAF vs. Mitchell W. w/GaG

He starts w/ baltoy and attaches to it. I use touros to CCF and pass. He evolves to Claydoll; evolves ralts to gardy SW and attaches a fighting to kill my touros. I send in Mag, scramble and spread. He hits for 40 and telepasses. I K.O his Claydoll and spread some more with my Lvl.X. He really doesn’t have much after that besides maybe a psy lock - I don’t remember.

MagDol vs. Eric P. w/Banette
1st game I get a crud start and then get a God draw into a magmar to have a bench. He ascensions to a ban and passes. I get stable from there and rush him with magmortars although he did come back in the end.

1 – 0

2nd game I don’t remember much of this game but he got a crystal beach T1 which locked me and then he shut me out 6-0 on prizes.

1 – 1

3rd game This game was a close one, we were going pretty even and it was a good game. We Even and it was blow for blow and I K.O his last Ban on the field so he Roseannes to get another Shuppet BUT he had 2 prized. He sat there for the rest of the game trying to get a Night Maintenance but it didn’t come quick enough so It was over

2 – 1

MagDol vs. Ben C. w/BanDol

1st game This one was pretty tough. We each get a normal start for this match and he drops a Crystal Beach T1-T2 so I take it out w/ Crush Chance. Later on he drops a second Crystal Beach so I celio out a touros and Crush Chance while having to put up with 3 Bans. Now we’re sort of even and he drops Another Crystal Beach! Uggghh… So I NM back a touros and celio to take out the Crystal Beach and the game continues. Game still normal and guess what? He drops yet ANTOHER CRYSTAL BEACH!!!11! SO I DO IT AGAIN; NM, CELIO, CRUSH CHANCE. After that I drew 3 prizes and won from there.

1 – 0

2nd game This was a typical MagDol vs. Ban game so I did take the win this game with maybe only one Crystal Beach

2 – 0

MagDol vs. Dylan B. w/ MagDol

This game was tough just sitting there and smash shorting each other. I take the initiative to attack first so I warp and go with Fireball Bazooka to spread. He drops a Dugtrio (the mole not the bird, I always get those mixed up) so I can’t spread and he does something, forget. We end up in a situation where I have a Mag Lvl.X out and I hit his active and only mag out for 90 plus burn. If he gets a tails I am in a good position, if not, whatever. He rolls and it lands on my card… I immediately think it is a 1 so yeah… but he asks the judge and she asks the head judge and she says it has to be at below a 30 degrees angle or at a 30 percent slant or …. IDK that question goes on for about 10 min. before the head judge actually comes over and rules a reroll. O.K he gets heads. He draws, lvls up heals for 20, burns me and hits my Mag lvl.X for 100 and I get a tails flip so I am K.Oed and I can’t recover from that.
