XY Basic Green (Grass/Colorless) - Complete 10? Trainer Challenge matches using the deck
XY Basic Red (Fire/Colorless) - Complete 10? Trainer Challenge matches using the deck
XY Basic Blue (Water/Colorless) - Complete 10? Trainer Challenge matches using the deck
XY Basic Yellow (Lightning/Colorless) - Complete all tutorial levels
Mental Might (Psychic/Grass) - Introductory gift, should already be on your account
Rallying Cry (Water/Colorless) - Input the code PLASMAFREEZE into the store where you redeem pack codes

I figured only old fogeys like you and me would still have the HGSS themes, which is why they were excluded. Also, the themes keep it easy to enter.

Sign-ups end on the 12th, and I'll be posting the schedule to this thread sometime after sign-ups end. You'll be able to play your matches in any order as long as you play all of them by the deadline that I will post at the time I put up the schedule. The deadline will be dependent on how many players sign up.

I limited it to make it easily accessible. Well, that and I don't have any completed decks in my own deck lists.

ddrox13 July 11th, 2016 9:47 AM

As much as I would love to totally destroy people with my patented LantEel core because Lanturn Prime is the second best card in the game (Togepi UD is the best), I suppose I'll suppress that urge and totally destroy people with BW Basic Green and Rallying Cry instead :p

Oh, and if anyone wants a practice match PM me. As I implied and Don outright stated above, I'm a reletively experienced TCG player and willing to give advice.

GreyBidoof July 11th, 2016 11:41 AM

A link to the bracket is in the first post. You can play your matches in any order, as long as each match is been played to a Best of 3 Games (so first to two head to head game wins gets the match win). Post the results here. The best record in the round robin stage will get a bye to the second round of the elimination stage since there are seven participants.

If I make a top 3 finish in the elimination stages, the prizes will be bumped down a slot based on where I finished.

You have until July 19th to play all of your matches in the round robin stage. The elimination stage will begin as soon as all of the results for the round robin stage are entered.

Also, TheRealOCD, did you get your account created for the TCGO yet?

I'd try signing up later at night when fewer Americans are likely to be online on Go. Like between 10 PM and 1 AM your local time.

Those damn Americans and their silly iPhone games...

I don't even know how to go about scheduling for a round robin lel. Completely unbiased good luck to all!

Also: switching decks between matches y/n?

Yes, it's allowed. I'm even going to allow deck switching within a round as long as both players agree beforehand.

echimaru July 12th, 2016 4:22 PM

Results added to the bracket.

Faintastic July 15th, 2016 6:22 PM

I wish i still had a deck!

Bidoof FTW July 16th, 2016 1:41 PM

Lost 2-0 to Greybidoof

I'm the misplay master

ddrox13 July 17th, 2016 11:26 AM

Aughhhh, not an energy draw in the entire series

Lost 2-1 to Golgari, if it matters I won the middle game

Bidoof FTW July 17th, 2016 11:27 AM

Won 2-1 vs. ddrox13

close series, that Rallying Cry deck is really intimidating o:

ddrox13 July 17th, 2016 5:03 PM

Defeated GreyBidoof 2-0

First game he couldn't get anything besides a Magikarp out. It had 5 energy tho.
Second game I got a Serperior set up t4 then things happened.

UPDATE: Beat CountryEmo 2-0

First game was close, then I got Exploud and 1-shot his Gallade (and basically everything after his Gallade)
Second game I stalled with Bouffalant for long enough to get Serperior up.

GGs all around

donavannj July 17th, 2016 6:04 PM

I'm online right now and for the next 3 hours for anyone looking to set up a match for this.

Adding in all of the results you've posted right now.

EDIT: And I've lost 2-0 to ddrox in my first human v human match in nearly a year.

EDIT 2: Beat Golgari 2-0. Unfortunately I got out to much better starts in each match and that was game over from there.
