random alcoholic on the internet

I was playing against Seinosuke Shiokawa on my last round for win and in at Melbourne Regionals this weekend. We had a good game 1 and 2, but on the 3rd game I was trying to figure out going into my t4, I was trying to figure out how he had 3 energies on board (2 on Dragapult and 1 on drakloak) then sudenly the game was paused due to bystanders noticing there was a double attach from Shiokawa's side. The series of play is T1 Munkidori Dark attach Watchtower pass going first > T1 opening Raging Bolt Latias Cyrano TM Ogrepon Mega Kang WS Ogrepon attach to WS Ogrepon Sob > T2 he went Buddy Buddy Poffin 2 Dreepy into Lillies Determination into skull attach to Munkidori psychic mind bend my WS Ogrepon and move 20 damage from dori to TM Ogrepon > T2 from me was Teal dance + 2 eswitch + attach to kang to KO > T3 (this is where it gets fuzzy for me) by him was ultra ball (I dont exactly remember the 2 cards that was discarded read below) into kloak into Lillies Determination into 2nd kloak into a few more things into pass with skull in active > T3 by me is setup the board with more energies and everything then KO on duskskull > T4 he started off with Crispin attach Fire hold psychic then recons then somehow he gets 2 energies on pult and 1 energy on the Drakloak > my T4 started and I drew and I was asking him why was there an extra psychic on board then the game was paused Based on the translation given to me he claimed that he ultra ball away dark energy and crispin (my question is where did the 2nd dark even come into play, there was only 1 dark in discard) which then later changed it to u he played ultra ball crispin and lillie according to the translation given to me, then there was alot of back and forth till we got 15 mins time extension but entirely the judge rulled in his favour and we continued to play with no penalty given or anything given for this (do note there was alot of bystanders and they all saw this). After that, since we got a 15 minute time extension we played till overtime and the judge/translator who was watching the game after the back and forth did not take note of this and allowed a supposing tie to get from 5 minutes to time is called to give us an extra 10 minutes instead, at this point the head judge came over AGAIN and then AGAIN gave no warning/penalty or anything before telling Shiokawa that he was turn 0 and we just start from there, which should not be how it works, this lead me to end up with a loss instead of a tie, do note AGAIN the judge was watching and no action was taken by the judge or anything. I believe the double attach should have been investigated much deeper and they cannot just allow stuff like this like letting players hide behind a language barrier with translators telling me stuff like Shiokawa said "I don't remember" into him explaining step by step how he did everything and the judging being so lax and letting people get away with a double attach. Personally, I hate to say it but I've completely lost all respect to all CL champions and MOST Japanese players due to my experiences with Keito Arai and now Seinosuke Shiokawa not to add the other drama that happened. There are still some really good Japanese players out there who play honestly and very well but those are the exception. Another thing I hate even more is the judging staff who did not properly investigate this issue before allowing play to continue and allowing this to happen and allowing 2 mistakes (double attach and timming rules) to happen in the SAME game. I've had many bad experiences with judged before but this is by far the worst I've had so far. Sorry for the wall of text but just wanted to get this out there.

起こったことの理由を“言語の壁”って日本人が言うことはちょっとズレてると個人的に思います。 だってこの大会はICじゃなくregional だからね

First Western Extra Grand Battle Winner (that I’ve seen) is just a standard PEnel deck. 🫩 GG congrats! One of the many reasons that I’m a big believer in just playing whatever you’re currently playing in Standard, +- a couple cards if you’re blue for Red Roc. ✍️

I don’t really get the whole West Serial vs East Serial comparison 🤔 As someone who’s played in Western events and bagged Serials there, it honestly didn’t feel that different to me 🤷 At the end of the day, I was still playing the same One Piece Card Game.
