Tourney was at....
Game HQ
Edmond, OK 73003
Address not available, forgot to get it this week!
Wee, finally got my hands on a Fossil themed deck! Whoo hoo! Do you really
think that I should have modified it(extremely), though? And actually used
it in the tourney??!? Nah, that was stupid. Oh well, I had a lot more fun
than when I was using my Haymaker this time. Next week, however, it's
introduction #1 to my Haymaker Killer deck... ^__^ Anywho, now to the cards

As you can see, I basically made this deck my own. I didn't have enough time
to make this deck and perfect it, though, as a friend of mine and I were
modifying these about 10 minutes before the tourney started. We both landed
11/12th place, but still, we had fun. Now for the tourney results.
Round 1- vs. a Fighting/Water Deck
I played this kid last week, too. I wish I could have
played Michael, but no... Anyways, I pretty much took care of buisness
with Magmar, and when he killed it, I destroyed his Magikarp(not too much of
a great feat) with a flick of the ok' Articuno.
Record of 1-0
Round 2- vs. a Fire/Fight Deck
Apparantly everyone here has their own lil' variation of
a Haymaker, which is why I broke off of the trend. Anyhow, he beat me with 3
Super Energy Removals. I tryed to power up my Arcanine, but he Super
Energy removed it twice and took out the 2 Horseas that I had out. When
Arcanine came out, he killed it with Moltres and 3 plus powers. I had no
basic left, so he won. Pretty close, though, as I had 3 prizes left.
Record of 1-1
Round 3- vs. a Mono/Electric Deck
I was surprised that I beat him, as I took him out with a
Horsea and a Kingler. He sent out alot of electrics though, which forced me
to send out Arcanine, who I was powering up when Kingler got to 50 damage. I
Flamethrowered him a few times and won the game. He didn't get a single
prize. ^__^
Record of 2-1
Round 4- vs. Fire/Psychic Stall deck
Although mad at this kid's Charizard, there was nothing I
could do. He Super Energy Removed me twice, and used Charizard to belittle
my Horsea and Krabby team. Since none of my Pokés were over 100 HP, he just
kept on taking me out. He tryed to cheat a few times too, by drawing 3 or 4
times at a turn, but I couldn't stop him as he denied all charges(I had a
witness, too, who saw what happened and had tryed it while playing him,
also). Anyways, I'm not holding that responsible for my win, just my
strategy.
Anywho, I didn't make it to the top 8, but did alot
better than expected. I had alot of fun this week, although incredibly angry
at the store owners... This weeks props and slops..
Props-
PROPS to Michael Moffit for joining me in a rousing round of "Lock
Down"
PROPS to this kid for bringing me my lil' lunchbox/cardbox from across the
store
Slops-
SLOPS to the store people for dissing pokémon and not being open to
opinions of those who knew more about the game then they do
SLOPS to the store people for saying that Magic will kill off Pokémon
SLOPS to the store owner for ripping me off when trying to get Body Guard as
a present for my brother
SLOPS to a kid for refusing my deal on a Fossil Mew after we had traded 20
minutes before
SLOPS to the Game HQ guy for laughing at me when I told him I was playing a
modifyed Pre-construct
As you can see... there were alot of slops. Really rainy day. Anyhow, I had
fun playing today. Thanks again, I'll be sure to give you a report next week
