Overall I definitely couldve played better, and I probably shouldnt have pivoted to PultZard last minute. But I at least have some information for going into the Houston Regionals Meta.

This was what I played to the Puerto Rico SPE. I think the list itself was fine but the deck was not the greatest metacall. I ended 3-5 which is my worst major to date.

Pelipper was honestly the best card in the list and most of my losses were prizing pelipper or whiffing luminous.

I promise you it's actually okay and good to say " I made choices I would not make again because now I understand things differently."

It's a sign of continued political education and a growing commitment and consciousness.

Oh my god, this card is extremely broken. Genuinely might warp the format around it.

Unfortunately this only really benefits dragapult cause they'll simply take a 4 prize turn to win.

Went to both Pokemon Locals AND a midnight Pre-Rift for Spiritforged

Top 8'd with DawnZard at Locals and went 2-1 at Pre-Rift with a low to the ground Jax build. Shureiya's Requium was an awesome pull.

Lost a Jax Mirror where I ran outta gas first.

Dw too much about that. The judges are generally pretty good about noticing when someone is just trying to shark.

Actually gameplay errors are where penalties Actually happen. Just make sure you're paying attention to the gamestate.

"Oh you only grabbed 3 off of Bellowing Thunder, so you whiff KO"

They clearly hadnt finished grabbing cards yet, they grabbed 3 and were debating on where to take the 4th off from.

Like dude, play the game and stop trying to nickel and dime for penalties.

Some people try to make up for their lack of skill in this game by rulesharking others.

"Oh you set your deck down mid search, that means it's over"

No it doesnt, shuffling ends the turn.
