Tournament Reports

What can you actually win from these tournaments?
Cash/Cards etc?
Examples please :)

Well, that depends on the tournament and the player's age, as well as the number of participants in that player's age group at that particular tournament. At any official tournament, there are boosters given out for placing in the top 3 or so. At the 3 Regionals (Autumn, Winter, and Spring), travel packages to your country's National Championships can be won in addition to packs. At the National Championships, travel packages for Worlds can be won, and some scholarships as well for those under 18. At Worlds, even bigger scholarships can be won.

This stuff is all going off of memory, so I may have omitted some prizes simply because I forgot they exist.

I participated in a Booster tourney for the pre-release of Plasma Freeze today. We built 40 card decks out of 6 boosters. My deck was as follows:

Spoiler:

My deck consists of:
8 dark energy
8 psychic energy
1 plasma energy
1 superior energy retrieval
1 frozen city
1 Eevee
1 Espeon
2 Nidoran F
1 Nidorina
1 Nidoran M
2 Beldum
2 Yamask
1 Cofagrigus
3 Pawniard
1 Bisharp
2 Deino
2 Zweilous
1 Hydreigon
1 Sneasel

I played 3 rounds. My first round I put up a really good fight, but lost because all my energy cards were on the bottom of my deck. ;.;

My second round was done in a matter of minutes, as the only 3 Basic cards I was able to get put were swept easily, and I just couldn't find any evos for them.

Round 3 was a slight mixture of the last two rounds, but more on both sides. I managed to beat my final opponent with much difficulty.

Okay, in an effort to consolidate and reduce the number of sticky threads in this section, all tournament reports can be posted as their own threads or in the upcoming Pokémon Trading Card Game Daily Chit-Chat thread. I'd love to see more of people's war stories, though!
