ok..I run the standard luxchomp..well..standard for me. decklist upon request if you Really want it.
Note: some of these turn by turns may not be 100% accurate..but they get the Gist of the game anyway
Game 1:
Vs. Andrew Mischik (sorry I know I spelled your last name wrong)
He went first..sole magikarp on his field..sea sprayed..my turn. I cyrus'ed to get energy gain and an electric, benched luxray..poketurned my active garchomp C into my hand, attached e-gain and lightning luxray gl and Bit his magikarp for the game.
1-0
Game 2:
Vs..New kid playing modified mamoswine deck with SW Suicune
I saw his unsleeved deck as I sat down and asked if it was a precon deck (the box was right next to him). He said pretty much..and I actually felt bad. He started randomly attaching water energy (1 to his pilo then mamoswine, one to his other pokemon) without ever fully powering anything up. I bit his opening psyduck to death in one hit. (lightning plus energy gain)..I continued to totally dominate..he got a mamoswine TR with one energy..he then plays down Suicune secret wonders..and I called a judge over..after that was resolved (suicune removed and basic water put in the deck instead) I got garchomp c x out and dragon rushed his mamoswine..then flash impacted the next turn for the game.
2-0
Round 3.
Vs..Matt Newahl
He was playing his magnezone deck..the same one I lost to a week before in columbus (only swiss loss and only loss that tournament til the final match)..When I saw the pairings I felt karma coming back because of my two easy rounds before that. He had spitiomb turn one. I had 3-4 sp trainers.. a cyrus..and a luxray benched (possibly garchomp as well..). I went first..passed. he went, played collector, getting magnemite, eletrike, and uxie..played them put chansey down. darkness Graced into blissey and ended his turn. I played cyrus..got pokemon collector..a energy gain and an electric. I attached to luxray and passed. he evolved into magneton for the turn..then darkness graced into one of the sf magnezones after playing a supporter and attaching energy. my turn..I played my pokemon collector..getting dialga g, unown q, and bronzong. I played those down..Uxie drew into a bebe's..attached a steel to dialga and passed. his turn..he played bts..got out the other sf magnezone..attached and passed. I was finally able to bebe's and get dialga g x and level him up..but by that time the field was massively in his favor. Long game short: I had to pick off prizes here and there with dragon rush as he seekered back a damaged magzeone and bts'ed it back into play. Endgame..we went to time..he had magnezone prime with the X on it..4 special metals..I pretty much scooped although I played it out I knew I couldn't win.
2-1
Round 4:
vs....one of the guys who judged yesterday
he was playing vilegar..I got out dialga G and lvled up. retreatedto keep him safe. he got gengar out a turn too late..I carefully counted damage and was able to crobat drop kill his first gengar. The second gengar I killed outright and he failed the fainting spell flip. He pretty much failed to set-up afer that so I won.
3-1
round 5:
VS..guy with mirror luxchomp (possibly without dialga g tech)
I faced this guy at columbus too..same matchup..only I was able to win. Unfortunately I wasn't so lucky this time..I Almost donked but after a judge was called on a sleeve issue he decided to bench an unown q (dice wasn't rolled yet). I was able to dce/energy gain my garchomp C to kill his garchomp C and I crobat dropped his Q. I used collector and took both uxies to try and super draw into 2 poketurns to win (my other bat was prized as was azelf). I used up both uxies..drew into alot of cards that I couldn't get out of my hand..only got one turn..his second turn he used pokemon collector, getting luxc, garchomp..and uxie. he revenge killed my garchomp after putting DCE on his and energygain. long game short...he got a few prizes ahead..I didn't see a cyrus until turn 5. He won..
3-2
round 6: VS gyarados..
long game short:
I got lucario GL out and luxray g x out on my 2nd turn after killing his sabeye..I was able to crobat drop to kill his first dos. for a few turns he only had 2 in the discard because for some reason he had 2 magikarp benched before he evolved the first into a dos. I attached another energy to luxray and started doing lux gl's second attack (its name escapes me right now) for 70 (140 with lucario to double weakness) and killed his 2nd dos..he was able to get a third up..and belt it..to which I responded with a crobat drop and the second attack for 150 and the game.
4-2
Yay I top 8'ed..
Round 7: top 8 cut
Vs..guy with vilegar.
Game 1:
I went second..got Dialga g x out early..I got an awesome set up..and killed his gengar outright. He failed the flip..He then apparently had a horrible hand so he scooped after I killed a second gengar and he failed to fainting spell again.
Game 2
This was alot more drawn out. I honently don't remember all the specifics..I got DGX..killed one gengar..he failed the flip..Retreated and brought up luxray to damage his next gengar. I killed his second gengar..he succeeded the flip and killed my dialga g x. I used Aaron's to get it back. I had dragon rushed a few things earlier..we ended up being 1-1 on prizes. I got uxie X out and was able to trade-off into a DCE to kill his azelf for the game.
yay top 4!
round 8:
Vs..same mirror luxchomp as round 5.
game 1:
this game was alot more even and took up like..45 minutes of our time.
we traded prizes for a few turns ended up at both 1:1 left in prizes. I played strategically and knew/thought that he couldn't one shot anything and everything could be ko'ed by my dce'd uxie x. he brought up dragonite fb..luck drew into a DCE..used that, an energy and a energy gain to giant tail me..flipping heads to KO my uxie x. I was surprised
Game 2:
game 2 was alot more lopsided in his favor..time was called a few minutes in and he was a prize or 2 ahead..and there wasn't anyway I could even it out/beat him in that turn. I lost.
I got fourth overall..4 packs. celebi prime, 2 seekers, rh junk arm.
Overall I had fun. 3rd top 4 cut in 3 cities tournaments (got 2nd at Columbus and Chardon)
Random thing I wanted to findout..how the sp guy (space wise) teched in pokemon communication, enery exchanger, and Both dragonite fb and ambipom G (I only run ambipom)..I didn't see a dialga..and I also saw a fire energy..but saw 0 Blaziken either..
