Hello all! I am happy about the results of
this tourney. It may not be that great but it is my second tournament,
and my record looks like a good start! I went to superhero city in
Sewell, NJ(thanks to pojo's "places to play" section for helping me
find it). I played 6 games.
Well, here is the deck. I call it
"Energy Suction". It is an energy denial deck.
20 Water Energy
4 DCE
3 Psyduck
2 Golduck
3 Dratini
2 Dragonair
2 Lapras
2 Scyther
2 Magikarp
1 Gyarados
4 ER
4 SER
3 bill
2 Oak
2 Switch
2 GOW
2 Computer Search
The theme is removing energy(duh!). I can
take off most of the energy on there already using SER and ER and then I send
out Golduck or Dragonair to keep them energyless. Scyther and Lapras are
good starting basics, and Gyarados is just in there because he's good.
Round One--Raindance
I started out with Laporas and he started with
articuno. I attached and energy with water gun and did 10 damage.
his turn. He couldn't attack so he let me go. I used confuse ray
and got tails. Then it was his second turn and he bred his squirtle on
the bench, raindanced 4 energys on articuno and used blizzard on THE SECOND
TURN! but he did 10 too all of his benched. I got heads with
confuse ray and stopped him from attacking me. I was able to kill his
articuno and when he brought out blastoise he didn't have enough energy to
attack so he let me go. From then on I kept my Lapras alive with SER and
lucky confusion flips and killed his blastoise, and his other blastoise, and
he eventually ran out of bench. He took no prizes!
WIN
1-0
Round 2--Damage Swap
I started with a psyduck and he started with a
Base Set Mewtwo(?!). I was able to evolve Psyduck and kill his basic
mewtwo. he brought out kadabra and evolved to alakazam. then he
put down tentacool. He kept swapping my golduck's 20 damage to tentacool
and picking it up and putting it down, and he held me off with his 4 SER's!
However, he decked himself out due to the use of too many oaks.
WIN
2-0
Round 3--Haymaker
This game was really fast, and really frustrating!
I had a Dragonair out early with 20 damage on it, and he attached 2 pluspowers
to hitmonchan to kill me! I ran out of bench! However, it wasn't
my fault.
LOSS
2-1
Round 4--ANOTHER Haymaker
This was a quick game. She started with
fossil magmar and I started with lapras. bye bye magmar. Then she
brought out another magmar and I retreated lapras for Gyarados. again,
bye bye magmar. she ran out of bench.
WIN
3-1
Round 5--YET ANOTHER Haymaker
This was a long game. I had been killing of
his electabuzzes and hitmonchans with SER's and a Dragonair most of the game.
then my dragonair dies. The rest of the game was sort of blurry but I do
know that the timer went up and we tied.
TIE
3-1-1
Round 6--ANOTHER FRIKIN HAYMAKER!!!!
The kid I played against was really nice.
When I couldn't find my golduck he gave me one for free. If you're out
there, thanks a lot!
I lost due to a bad shuffle. His
Electabuzzes fried my psyducks and I ran out of basics.
LOSS
3-2-1
I came in 11th place(out of 33). I was 3
places away from getting into the final 8! Dang!
It is not the best record in the world but
hey...it's my second tourney. I did a lot better than last time, when I
got in 19th out of 21!
Now for the props and slops:
props to the last kid I fought for sparing his
golduck
props to the store owner for charging 3 bucks for
his boosters
props to everyone I played against for being a
good sport
props to the kid I traded my Charizard to
Props to my friend for getting the same record I
got
slops to the kid who kept bugging me for my
charizard
slops to my friend who ripped my other friends
off(he sent a killer deck to pojo too, it might be posted under
psychic/fighting decks, it's called "bench cooler")
slops to my other friends who got ripped off by my
friend and came in 30th at the tourney
slops to the jerk who pushed me and my friends and
said, "move ladies!" (I then said to him "you suck!" and
he said "what did you say to me?" and he walked off, what a jerk)
That's all for now. I hope you post this
pojo!
