Some intressting informations
- More than 85% of players were playing Galactic Decks variants in masters (Palkia G, Palkia G/Dialga G, Dialga G or Skuntank/Toxicroak/Weavile).
- Of the 3 Porygon Z played in all categories of age, 2 of them went to the final. Both Porygon Z in the final won the first game, lost the 2nd, and lost the 3rd for bad luck (timout for the master, bad baltoy start for the senior)
- The only Dusknoir deck made top in masters.
- All the machamps played lost at least one time against a Galactic Deck in all tournament.
- Lukas (Junior) is the 1st Swiss National Champion to win 2 times consecutive the tournament.
- Luca (Master) made his 3th Swiss National final consecutive.
- Jonathan (Senior) and Luca (Master) are both in top 20 european, and then would have the Worlds Invitation.
- Rafael that suprised everybody by going to the final with a rogue deck, only restarted playing Pokémon TCG in January.
- The junior attendence were very low, only 6 players ! That was lower than the attendence the City of Payern (Switzerland) ! This explains by the fact that junior players can't travel alone, and parents don't drive them...

Congrats to everyone.

Six juniors is a little sad. Glad it wasn't five or fewer.

Having 6 players in the Juniors and prob not a heck of a lot in the Seniors is low. What is insane is that the 1st place Junior got a free trip. That is unbelievable.

At US Nats there will be several hundred Juniors and Seniors in each division vying for 4 trips.

Juniors Switzerland: 1 out of 6 chance: 16%
Juniors US (assume 200): 4 out of 200: 2%

More power to you all.

Do you know how much it cost to travel from here to San Diego ?

Here only the champion win the travel, in USA not. But for you it's cheap to travel in your own country. That's logical that the champion of Juniors can go to worlds.

Many good players that do top or finals (like me) CAN'T go to worlds, because of the airplane that is too expensive to travel from a continent to another... And well I'm from a rich country, but I can't imagine from less rich countries like Czech Rep, Brazil or others...

And obviously 6 players, doesn't mean they aren't good players. Every time Titouan goes to Frances, he wins.....

Porygon deck is a deck that I made with Porygon-Z promo from blisters. Not much played, people prefer play the photocopied decks of Galactic XD.
 
The first won five displays and my brother who was the 8th won just a POP9 booster, I was 14th and I didn't win anything..

Lots were VERY VERY BAD this year...

And in the first match, I was VS a cheater..

But it was fun ^^

Maybe I will go in Worlds in two years because my brother MUST win :D.

Correction, I mistaked, the 1st won 6 Display !!!!! And the 2nd only 18 boosters lol....

The lotation was just so stupidly done...
The more fair would be : 1st 3 display, 2nd 2 display, 3rd 1 display, 4th half display, and the rest 1 display for the 20others players.

Switzerland is considered one of the most richest countries in Europe, but they should be probably the worst country for the POP lotation in the World!!!
I remember that in France, Portugal, Italy and some others countries that I know players the winner of a SPT win at least a display Platinum, here we won only 5 boosters Stormfront, that's so pathetic. Our neighbors von Germany and Autria have incredible prizes, and the 2nd in their National have a freetravel paid by the Pokemon cards distributor !

But well the only guilty of that situation is the skinflint compagny Carletto (card distributor in Switzerland). I dream to see them replaced by Asmodee or the german one ^^.
