10-3 Top 32 (Bubbled top 16) with Festival Lead! The list was so fun to play and felt amazing all weekend. Hitting @emothann in the last round of Swiss on the 60 card team was certainly the worst timeline. SO to the rest of the testing group who narrowly missed out on phase two.

T8 Utrecht with PultNoir. 2-3 in mirrors, 10-0-1 vs everything else.

T256 with... Raging Bolt? Too many people told me Festival was an awful play so I pivoted last minute. Deck is cool but I threw too many games and paired too many Alakazam. Shoutout to @LostZoneKitchen @88Cardhouse @DragonShield for the sponsors and @ClarkePTCG for doing bad too.

Made my first day two Top 512 Very happy even though result isn’t great thanks to @HarryDunn53 for making the list and finding my new favorite art rare Sturdy Crustle. Hope all my opponents enjoyed their stay at the mysterious rock inn. Some more than others. Matchups below

@ArcaneRain2104 @emothann Thank you! Likewise, see you there!

@RandomIoM @emothann Congrats on the finish, was great to chat as always, hope to see you again at Utrecht :)

@SamRomaTCG @emothann Thank you! The first reason we added 007 was due to vitband rotating and being able to KO 120HP basics like Munki. Then second reason is being able to go Max Belt + 007 to hit 340 damage without using your supporter for turn.

@RandomIoM @emothann Congrats on result! What's the reason behind lilligant in the list?

Unreal

MUs:

54th at Prague with FESTIVAL LEAD! I love this deck, it is so unserious. Ending the event playing a 60 card mirror with @RandomIoM was the worst timeline. Shoutout to @LostZoneKitchen @88Cardhouse @DragonShield_ for the support! Matchups below:

MUs. Threw round 2 and poor draws against Tera Zard but we move.

Top 128 at Seville SPE with Festival Lead. Started 1-2-1 into 8-2-1 then sadly 8-4-1. Same 60 as @emothann. Deck was a great call. +80 CP, +1 box of Spanish Phantasmal.

Undefeated at skirmish Played viktor recruits are the Best unit in the deck. R1 orne W R2 kai’ser W R3 eyerelia W R4 sivear ID Top 4 sivear W Finals drayvin W Not sure what deck to borrow for next skirmish miss fourtoon seems good Thanks @william4797785 for the deck

Cup win (finally). Flareon good. Hilda Broken. I love Jewel Seeking. +50 CP

@emothann @pearcewPTCG I had one going spare too😩

@pearcewPTCG Nope!

Fatigue from playing children's card games is real. No one plays entirely perfect games all the time and that definitely showed in my Top 4 game. I'd chalk it down to being under prepared with food options which isn't like me. Looking after yourself at events is important.

Birmingham Regional Champion with Dragapult. Moltres is the goat. Shoutout to @LostZoneKitchen @88Cardhouse @DragonShield_ for the continued sponsorship support, the DBGX discord for putting up with my testing, and @Pumpkaamy for being my biggest cheerleader. Matchups below:

Top 128 at Birmingham regionals. Ended on a record of 9-4-1, two of my loses were entirely my own fault, so can’t be too mad at the finish. Weekend was amazing because I couldn’t have asked for a better finals of @emothann vs @Littlesislatias!! So proud of both of them!!

Don’t talk to me or my regional champion son ever again #DBGXwin @emothann

@PTCGenius Goat

Solo judged/TO'd a 28-player Challenge today Hard work and some interesting goings-on, but it was a good experience😅

@Littlesislatias @enjoifriend Emma I am literally bringing 5 decks with me to Stuttgart 😤

@enjoifriend As far I'm concerned, Gym Leader Challenge doesn't exist outside of specifically Ohio. Can't wait to go back to Ohio though. Good times
