I played Accelgor.

R1 vs. Klinklang Finland?
Started bad, ended up Junipering/Saging away all 4 Candys so when he killed Plume, I lost.

0-1

R2 vs. Eels US
I get T2 Plume, he doesn't play Raikou so I'm fine.

1-1

R3 vs. CMT IT
He only gets out 2 Pokemon because of my T2 Plume.

2-1

R4 vs. Speed Darkrai
He starts fast, I start slow after a bad N. Late game I come back and end up winning fairly easily.

3-1

R5 vs. Eels/no terrakion
He does play Raikou, but doesn't get it out until late. I had to go agro Darkrai because my 3rd Accelgor was prized after a T1 Juniper..

3-2

R6 vs. Mismagius
One of the greatest games I feel I have ever played. It all fell perfectly into time, and I was able to Night Spear for 2 Prizes as well as Cursed Shadow for a prize, putting me ahead a prize after turn 3.

4-2


R7 vs. Mismagius
I start great, as does he. We both get down to 2-2 prizes, and then I knock out a Terrakion. I was busy shuffling Mew into my deck, and forgot to take a prize. He didn't notice, so started his turn and played supporters and such. We call a Judge to settle it out, and then my opponent lies and says I didn't knock out an Oddish. I still end up getting the prize, and end up winning during my next turn. (Even had I not gotten the prize, I would have won.

5-2 , 14th seed.
Cousin ended up 79th.

T16 vs. Darkrai/Mewtwo
G1:
I scoop early because I draw dead.
G2:
I get a faster start. and sweep him.
G3:
I get a fairly good start but after I get out Lampent, I never draw another Supporter.
Tough luck, oh well.


Props:
All of my friends I made, and ones that I saw at the event.

Sean for making it to Worlds
Top cutting my first Worlds.
Worlds Swag Bags

Slops:
Terrible/overpriced food
US not winning in any TCG Division
 
Nice job!

And at least you got one of those cool messenger bags. Do you think you'll be going next year?
 
This has got to be the most detailed Worlds report I have ever seen! :p

But seriously, Top Cutting at your first Worlds must feel awesome. Funny how your last 2 games were Mismagius, I've never seen it played much except on TCGO where it was popular for about 2 days. Congrats.
 
Mudkip:
Thanks. Yeah, I'll definitely be there next year.

RogueChomp:
Thanks, man. I ran really hot at the end of the season, especially since nobody even knew who I was until now.

Brave Asperia:
Ehh, I'm lazy. xD I was surprised to see them as well, especially from the players I did see them from. (Last years world Champ, and another very good player)

Blui129:
Thanks. That'd be great, but you never know what will happen.
 
NIce job on topping worlds :) by any chance are you going to next years worlds? If you are, good luck there too!
 
What age group are you? I'm guessing Seniors because I know you're not Masters because you're obviously not Jay Hornung who got 3rd at US Nats haha.

Either way, good job! Really a great accomplishment, and it's cool it was done with a rogue deck.
 
wow brandon way to give me props. I logged in for the first time in nearly 2 years to say this so you'd better fix it
