Thanks to ddrox13 for the tip.

Looks interesting! I was planning on going there, so I may have to check it out. I hope my cards are usable, they are pretty old.

Probably worth noting that the bonus cards they are giving out ARE ONLINE ONLY (i.e. you won't get a physical card) and will both NOT be legal in Standard next year with FlF (that's XY-Flashfire to you) rotating out. However, if you are still running a Zard deck or a Bronzong deck online in Expanded, go ahead and pick these up! I certainly will be grabbing them if I can.

Oh, and I plan to attend. Like 'Kip, Ill be playing with old stuff if they let me (i.e. using my TCGO Legacy deck, or LantEels)

I should bring a couple decks when I go.

I'm just a bit glad ddrox and I were having issues setting up our TCGO match for the GT tournament and led to me seeing a lot of the promo splash screens on the TCGO client, otherwise neither of us would have known there was actually a tournament being hosted at the event. Before I found out about the tournament, I was merely planning to go to pick up the freebies and then duck out for a couple hours until the manga event later in the day started.



I'll be at my local store for this since I know all that now.

It's a shame I'm working this weekend. And that I still don't know how to play the game now. Otherwise, I'd bring my decks and try my hand at a few games.

Might still just go to look at Card books get any free stuff and take a picture of Pikachu.
