I get up at 7:45 take shower, eat, etc. I leave at about 9:00 to get my friend and enjoy the hour long trip to Brooklyn, from the land fill that I live in, good old Staten Island. We get there 20 minutes early and the stores not even open. *Cue the freezing 20 minute wait in 24 degree weather*. We get in and I cant even fill out my list since I needed to trade for somethings. 11:20 pairings are up.
Apparently there were five juniors and 9 seniors (my division) so they put them up together.
P.S I was running Umbretar
ROUND 1:VS ???? with a Magnezone Deck
This was a really close game. He sets up with 2 magnemites, I get out sableye, sableye donk with an e-belt. He busts out like 3 more magnemites and a Magnezone Prime and a Magnezone from SF. He was ahead like 4 prizes but I got some easy KO's with belted TTAR. I win by exactly enough damage on magenzone prime.
Me: 1-0
Friend: 0-1
ROUND 2: VS Dylan something? with LuxChomp
I couldnt set up at all. He basically dragon rushed all the basics i could get out and it was game in 4 turns.
Me: 1-1
Friend: 0-2
ROUND 3: VS Snotty Brat with Gengar
This was played out to the point that we used up all of time and our 3 extra turns. He sets up amazingly fast with a Gengar Prime, Polegetergist Gengar, and Gengar (AR). I set up with TTAR but he owns it and its lost zoned. I couldnt get much out. Stalled a little with Umbreon UD and picked up a few prizes he won and i had 2 prizes left.
Me: 1-2
Friend: 1-2
ROUND 4: VS ??? junior with Gyrados
This was also a close game. He sets up for gyrados and i have dakrai MD and Darkrai G out. Basically a sleep stall. He recovered the G-Dos like 4 times with recovery energy. I won basically on a judge infringement. I knocked out his G-DOS with a poke-power and he recovered it and some kid saw it and called a judge over and he couldnt recover G-DOS so it cost him the game. GG
Me: 2-2
Friend: 1-3
Final Standing:
Me: 7/14
Friend: 13/14
Pros:
Not failing during my first premiere event
Good trades
Prime pull from the one pack I bought
New Deck Box
Finally getting dice
Good People
Slops:
Not winning
Bad Opponent
No door prizes
Overall really good first cities. Even though I didnt win I had an amazing time.
