Tyraniking's 4th Place Gigas BR Report

OK, so I eat, get ready, and I'm off. Nothing special whatsoever.

I get there and Darkartisan helps me out by ditching Energy Search for Conspiracy, which really helped. Petros is there trying to diss my deck, and most importantly, Team Rogue (Saying Team OP is better, blah blah blah, which I haven't really heard of Team OP so that's sorta unfair >_>). My friend and I whipped up a Steelix Prime for fun because we both really liked the deck. I turn in my decklist just in time, and pairings are up in no time. Just in case you didn't read the title, I'm playing Regigigas in Seniors.

Round 1 (Vs. PalkiaChomp):

So I'm nervous about this match. I thought this guy grinded into Worlds (He really didn't), and knows what I'm playing. Turns out this was way easier than I expected. I get a LA Gigas start, and he gets a Palkia G and Garchomp C start. As you can see, this made me even more nervous. And the fact he bragged about his hand made me even more nervous. He attatches a Water, and passes. I attatch a Water, Collector for the usual gang--Mesprit, Uxie, and Regice. All LA. Bench em all, use the powers, attatch an energy to gigas (Forgot which) and pass. He Levels up to Palkia G X, Flash Bite, Splashing Turns, AND ACTUALLY SWITCHES!!! He didn't even regret it! If you don't know what this is going on to, keep reading. So he switches with Garchomp, I DCE Gigas, Level up, Judge, and use Gigaton Punch and flip heads. I do 20 to the Palkia. Now I had some more confidence. So I KO his Garchomp and he sends up Crobat. He Lost Cyclones, I Lost Zone the Azelf from earlier that I forgot to mention, does some other stuff, and passes. So I Regimove to discard some energy, switches with none other than Palkia, Sacrifice, get the energy to Gigas, remove the damage from Splashing turn and Flash Bite, and Giga Blaster, KO. It would've been harder if he hadn't sent up the Garchomp, or if I wouldn't have gotten heads on Gigaton. So he sends up Crobat, Gigaton for game, whiff, and he benches Promocroak. I start to get worried but he doesn't draw into a Gain. Giga Blaster, GG.

1-0

Round 2 (Vs. Luxchomp)

Very fun game. This was the guy that didn't grind into worlds, that dissed my deck and my team and stuff. He was so full of himself that he would win, that I'm not much of a threat, but by the end, he was shaking (For the record, he did admit he was shaking at the end. JUST SAYING). So I actually thought he would win too...when I got a SHAYMIN START AND NO COLLECTOR! But I get set up. Each turn he took a bunch of prizes. But when I caught up, we were both down to the last prize. Ah Brad's, how you give me the suspenseful second games in BRs all the time...He Toxic Fanged me, but I made the most pro move ever...I actually retreated and Sacrificed. U lyke dat? I was able to get rid of his Drifblim with Giga Blaster, and when I Giga Blastered his Drifloon, I made the biggest misplay ever. However, he won anyway. He Galactic Switches a Lighting, attatches a Lighting, energy Gain, Bright Looks Uxie, Trash Bolt, Very GG. I even had a Warp Energy to go back on my misplay. Ah well.

1-1

Round 3 (Vs. Regigigas (Tyranizor))

Oh not again! I check the roster and sure enough, I'm playing mirror. Thing is, his Gigas wipped mine back at the first BR Autumn. I had a pretty bad start though. Anyway, so I start Drag Off Gigas, and flip. I'm going first. He's like "GG man, haha!" and I remember he has Sableye in his build so I say "You started with Sableye, didn't you." "Yep." Almost had me there. So he Impersonates for Collector and I think he got Uxie, Regice, and Gigas (He started with Mesprit. T1 Psychic Bind FTW, I was about to Psychic Bind him XD) So he gets set up before I do, but I get one important thing set up--Drag Off. I was able to Drag Off stall him for a while, and he was Regimove stalling me. In the end, he misplayed and Sacrificed before he Regimoved so only got one energy. I only had one more prize left after Sacrifice and KOing Regice. So he sends up Uxie, attatches a Water to Uxie, Sets up, and misplays again--SSU's Uxie instead of Regigigas. However, he didn't notice that until after I Dragged Off his Gigas for game, because he didn't realize I KO'd it. GG.

2-1

Round 4 (Vs. Tyranitar/Nidoqueen (Gengartheballer))

OK, you know those people who are just lucky, or give you bad luck. I swear, this guy is one of those people. Last game was against DialgaChomp, and he Deafen Locked me the whole game. And guess what, the only Supporter I drew the whole game was a Bebe's. This other guy was the same, getting SSU heads whenever he wanted...hmph. So yea. This game was similar, slightly better, maybe. I made a KO out of Queen and T-Tar, but that was it. GG.

2-2

Hmm...I don't pay much attention to people's names on the pairings, hehe. But all I know was that he had black hair, worlds cap, I think maybe a worlds T-Shirt, pretty short, had to be in Seniors for only a year, and I thought I remember saying he grinded in. Oh yea, and he was around Petros a lot, and was with me in the beginning because I was with Petros :p
 
Dangit, I don't feel special anymore :p I probably wouldn't have been half as nervous. How he put it was really confusing, so he probably didn't make it. Fixed
 
It appears you had a tough day, but you had a lot of fun. Best wishes to you at your next event.
 
^Yea, unlike my last two BRs I faced no newbs, so nothing was too easy. The only reason I played Gigas was because I could have those games, you know? Same to you! :D
 
So did you lend me the Cyrus's or was it John? I remember him searching for it, but I had a faint memory that it was in your cards. I'm gonna ask Danny to give it to whoever lended it to me, I'll be leaving on Sunday.
