I was there too, and thought it was a step up from the previous competitions we've had in QLD before. Quite a few trick room teams around, and didn't see any many Whimsicott/Terrakion teams as I thought I would. Unfortunately for me, I just didn't make it through the 3rd round. An item probably would've saved me, but that's all done and dusted now. It's certainly something to think about for the states that are left to go.
On another note, I'm quite happy that the day didn't drag right out until 5pm as they normally would. They were really pushing the limits trying to host it inside an EB store!
