Kenosha Wisconsin Battle Roads

Image
I know its been a while since this happened, but I wanted to do this article because I did so good, plus the staff was really nice. The store was Outpost Gaming in Kenosha,Wisconsin. The organizer was Pat Fuge, who was a really nice guy. He talked to us all after the rounds, while having great judge calls. I had a blast at the event. I got 3rd place out of 20 people. I am not that very good at tournaments, but I was very excited about my winning. I got 4 packs and a Victory Cup which the card says: "Flip a coin. If heads, search your deck for a Pokemon, reveal it, and put it in your hand. Shuffle your deck afterword." This card is pretty much Poke Ball, but with a shinier card image. The card isn't the best, but I got it free, so how can I complain. Overall, this was a really fun day, can't wait for more events from Mr. Fuge.

Some examples are: He played 3-4 max potions, while I played only 2, and he had more catchers than I did. But I was close. I won game one with ease. The second game was a disaster. I couldn't get set up for the life of me. For the third game, I could have won, but the few differences made the gamechanger. Overall, I got half a box with it, so I was excited. The day wasn't just about battling though. I played Black 2 and got a lot of Join Avenue people to come. I also got to meet Pooka, and get his picture with me. He works for TheTopCut  , a really famous Pokemon site that works on TCG videos on the gameplay, and other cool bits of info. It is good that I did well because this is my last year as a Senior, s
