Hey there PoJo! I am writing this tournament report the day I played in the
tournament, so I have all the details on the matches!

Location: Dueling Ground In Myrtle Beach, S.C.
Tournament Style: Swiss for four rounds with a final two. DCI Sanctioned; $5
to enter, $40 if you win.
Name of Deck: Energy Barrier Breaker

"Energy Barrier Breaker (EBB) V. 1.2"

4 Mewtwo (Movie Promo)
3 Scyther (Jungle)
2 Chansey (Base)
1 Squirtle (TR)
1 Ditto (Fossil)
1 Gastly (Fossil)

4 Oak
4 Bill
4 Computer Search
4 Pluspower
3 Item Finder
3 Super Energy Removal
3 Scoop Up
3 Gust of Wind
3 Lass
2 Nightly Garbage Run

11 Psychic Energy
4 Double Colorless Energy

That's the deck list. The objective is to get Mewtwo with three energy up one
turn one, but Lass them before you do your attack for the turn. This deck did
very well for me

When I arrived at the tournament, NO ONE was there, but quickly six more
people showed up. We needed one more person so the tournament would be DCI
sanctioned, so we got one of the store owners to play by throwing him
together a deck with some of my cards.

Round 1 against a Sponge-like deck
I went first, but was dismayed by the fact that I would have to Oak away
three DCE to get Mewtwo going. But, I stuck to the plan and got Mewtwo going
first turn. From then on, it was a matter of knocking out my opponent's
Mewtwo's and chans, and then sending Chansey to clean up.
Record: 1-0

Round 2 against Raindance
I was facing a little girl who barely knew how to play, so I went easy on
her, though I probably shouldn't have considering she got out a turn two
blastoise on me! I supered it and kept it at bay though, while I beat down on
it with Mewtwo. An easy match after Blastoise was taken care of.
Record 2-0

Round 3 against my toughest competition with Haymaker
To tell the truth, I just got plain outplayed. He got the lucky coinflips,
buzz KOed my Mewtwos with ease, and my deck just could not stand up to all
the ER's and SER's he had.
Record 2-1

Round 4 against classic hay
I had to win this to go on to the final two, and i did it WITH STYLE BABY!!
He had a Buzz, he got to go first, paralyzed my Ditto. I got two scoop ups to
get Ditto on the front line without paralys or damage. Then I proceeded to
burn through more than half my deck to get a DCE and three pluspowers. (i
couldnt get the fourth) So I did thunderpunch. If heads I won, and it was
heads! A kodak moment once again... And he thought i couldn't get 70 damage
first turn.... HA!
Record: 3-1

I had to win this next match against the guy that beat me in round three to
win the tournament.

Round 5 vs against guy in round three that beat me
I loooooved this match. I start with ditto and Scyther. He starts with
Scyther only and proclaims he has a great hand. I put energy on ditto with a
DCE in hand, and LASS him. He had to shuffle Oak, Bill, and an energy removal
back into his deck! I love Lass! I do swords Dance. He go's and puts an
energy on his scyther. I draw, hoping for search to get a pluspower, but no.
I slash for 60. He draws gets a Scyther, and puts him on the bench with an
energy. I go, put energy on my benched scyther and slash for prize one. He
sends up scyther, puts a DCE on him,SER's my Ditto, and slashes for thirty. I
retreat Ditto, send up my scyther, put DCE on him and slash. Next turn he
just slashes. I go, CPU search for a pluspower, and slash his Scyther for a
win due to him having no bench! Yesssss....
FINAL RECORD: 4-1

Well, I won the tournament, and with my winnings i got four Rocket booster
packs, one for me and three for my little Nephew, four Magic boosters (got
Lin Sivvi, yes!), and two magic single cards. Vampiric Tutor and Might of
Oaks for those who care.

Props for my dad taking me to the tournament
Props to my little Nephew for being confident that I would win and get him
boosters

No Slops, I had an excellent time!
