Streamwood Pokemon League

On Sunday November 25th, I went to the Streamwood Library for a league day. I went right after church, so the trip wasn't long. It started at 12:30 and ended at 3:00 P.M. I brought my deck along and went to the league. I played against really nice people who were new, and were veterans of the place. I ended up talking to the Moscows, who I am good friends with. I lost my games because I had really bad starts, plus I couldn't get any of the cards I wanted out at all. I still had a lot of fun. The Organizer, Mr. Moscow, was really nice and glad that we had come to the league. He helped me with my deck and gave me tips on how to play it. Overall, I had a blast, and I would love coming back there again. This was a great day, and I can't wait to go back again.

Boundaries Crossed Prerelease

Boundaries Crossed Prerelease I was at Top Cut Comics in Loves Park a few weeks ago for the Boundaries Crossed Prerelease. It was pretty crowded, but not as crowded as much as the Dragons Exalted prerelease. My good cards were: Cresselia Ex, Computer Search, and Vileplume with the ability. I didn't do so well during the tournament, but my ranking was good as most of the Seniors and Juniors dropped out, but we didn't, so we got everything we needed. The Promo was Flygon with an ability that as long as it is active, it does 10 damage to the enemy Pokemon between turns. It is pretty good if you know how to use it correctly. Overall, the tournament was fun, and the ACE SPECS are overpowered (trust me, they are). There are a lot of reprints though (no Ether, darn), but we got Landorus EX, so I don't know what to expect. Set Rating: 3 out of 4 stars Not the greatest rating, Pokemon is waiting for the next set to unleash all of the good cards. Thank you, and don
