So this was my first year in the Masters Division, and I knew that it would be a tough year(especially since I saw no real success in Seniors Division.)

Fall Battle Roads:

1. Warrenton, VA/ Deck: ZPST/ Record: 4-2, miss cut
2. Fairfax, VA/ Deck: Beartic/Vileplume/Reuniclus/ Record: 2-4, miss cut
3. Rockville, MD/ Deck: ZPST/ Record: 7-1, First
4. Wilmington, DE/ Deck: ZPST/ Record: 3-2, miss cut
5. Newark, DE/ Deck: ZPST/ Record: 2-2, drop

So I had a pretty rough opening of the season. I was hoping for more than 2 Championship points going into the first Regionals, but it didn't work that way.

Fall Regionals:

1. Doswell, VA/ Deck: ZPST Record: 6-3, Top 32

So that went well. I went 6-2 in swiss. On my way to the Top Cut, I donked 2 people in a row with Tyrogue.

Headed into Cities, I got very sick and had to miss the first 2 weekends of events.

Cities:

1. Lock Haven, PA/ Deck: MagneEels/ Record: 5-2, 2nd
2. York, PA/ Deck: MagneEels/ Record: 3-2, miss cut
3. Rockville, MD/ Deck: MagneEels/ Record: 4-2, Top 8
4. Glen Rock, PA/ Deck: Six Corners(AKA Big Basics)/ Recod: 7-2, 1st
5. New Jersey Marathon/ Deck: Typhlosion/Magnezone/ Record: 3-4, miss cut
6. New Jersey Marathon/ Deck: LaKE/ Record: 3-4, miss cut
7. Warrenton, VA/ Deck: MagneEels/ Record: 4-2, miss cut
8. Harrisonburg, VA/ Deck: MagneEels/ Record 2-2, drop

So I ended up with 14 CP leaving Cities. I was happy with this.

States:

1.Sandston, VA/ Deck: Zekeels/ Record: 4-3, miss cut, Top 32
2. Newark, DE/ Deck: Zekeels/ Record: 3-4, miss cut
3. Glen Burnie, MD/ Deck: Zekeels/ Record: 4-3, miss cut

So I had a really bad States run, but was hoping to make it up with Regionals.

Spring Regionals:

1. Philadelphia, PA/ Deck: CMT/ Record: 7-3, Top 16

Going into Battle Roads, I knew I would be using Darkrai in almost(if not all) of my deck choices.

Spring Battle Roads:
1. York, PA/ Deck: Speed Darkrai/ Record: 5-1, 3rd
2. Fairfax, VA/ Deck: Speed Darkrai/ Record: 3-3, miss cut
3. Warrenton, VA/ Deck: Hammertime/ Record: 7-0, 1st
4. Newark, DE/ Deck: Hammertime/ Record: 3-2, miss cut
5. Holmes, PA/ Deck: Hammertime/ Record: 3-1, miss cut
6. Wilmington, DE/ Deck: Darkrai/Vileplume/ Record: 2-3, miss cut
7. Amelia, VA/ Deck: Hammertime/ Record: 3-2, miss cut

So another pretty poor BR run. Had a lot of fun at these events, though.

Going into Nationals, I was really set on Darkrai. But the more and more I tested, the less I liked Darkrai.

US Nationals:
1. Indianapolis, IN/ Deck: Zekeels/Terrakion/ Record: 5-4, miss cut

I had a pretty bad day as far as luck went at Nationals, but still had a lot of fun.

So that was my 2011-2012 Season. Here are the overall results:

Tournaments Attended: 26
Overall Record: 102-63
Total Championship Points: 26
Premier Rating: 1735.88
Ranking in NA Masters: 165th
Play! Points: 68

Overall, I had a really fun year of Pokemon and a pretty successful one too for my first year in Masters.

Thanks for reading, and I'll see ya next Season!
 
Dang, you went to a ton of events. You have to carpool me to some.
 
That's a LOT of tournaments. I like how your Champ Points match your Play! Points. Just funny how stuff works out.
 
@ Glace, yeah we did do a lot of events this year. And still couldn't get a World's Invite :p
It would be cool to carpool with you to these events, but a lot of times we either have a full car or I am going with other people, therefor being out of my control of who we take. But I'll see what I can do.

@ Blargh, yeah it was. But I think you mean Champ Points match number of tournaments attended. :p
 
Kudos for trying differant decks and not being afraid of thinking outside of the box! :D

Thanks. I appreciate it. However, as you can see, there were a few patches of me playing the same deck over and over lol.(Br fall- zpst.)

I went to this battle road. Are you going to fall one here? Because I am.
I will be in Seniors playing probably klinklang.
I only got 6th place testing out Zekeels.
I lost to fighting variants.
2-2 in Fairfax.
Got a bye, though.

I should be going to the Fall one. The only way I would not is if there is one closer to me.
 
haha


Friends4Rides2013 :>.

So far I am supposed to go to:
Rockville
Warrenton
Fairfax
Newark

What about you (not asking for rides just wondering :p)?
 
No idea yet, I need to see what they change with the CP system(if at all.) If the talk about them taking CP away from BR's is true, I won't be going to very many. But if nothing gets changed, I will be going to a lot of BR's come Fall.(Hopefully double what I did in 11-12.)
