We battled two matches, hoping to get the third done Saturday.
Updated. Not much time left guys, play your matches.
Won 2:0, ggs
Beat Coronis 2:0 overall (vader's and his team). Won second match in a very tense, prediction filled match, tried to calc the deciding move, flipped back to check timer and saw it was at 5 seconds. Made a snap decision at 2 seconds remaining >_>.
Mirror matches are even more fun than I expected!

Lost 0-2 to Master of the Six Kings. Luck won it, despite us both playing well. All in all, he probably deserved it, but 2x crits in both games sped it up quite a bit. I'd also like to express my distaste with the fact that the Host team has no way to stop Gligar, so first to RP wins. Nevertheless, good games and good job Master. Good luck in future rounds
I agree with the distasteful win with the host team. And confirming wins. Had a lot of salt in wound crits, but as said, one crit espically, but two noteably increased the pace of our games.
Great first game Class, was one of the more fun games i've played in a while.

Suix hasn't been on since April 28th and seems to have a past of not getting his matches in tourneys judging by his wall...
well, Lord Liam and I have quite the problem on our hands.
I won Little Cup largely in part due to a aqua tail miss from his Gliscor vs. Mine
1-0 Me
The next game was a fun NU match that couldve gone either way but I sacced Sandslash at the wrong time allowing his Choice Specs Manectric to sweep me. GG
1-1 Tied
This third game is where things get tricky. The score is 4-2 and Lord Liam is dominating me, largely in part due to his Metagross dominating my Heatran with an Earthquake that I thought Heatran would surely survive with Shuca Berry and full health. 108% damage. So back to the 4-2 game:
I get my Metagross in on a Latias Dragon Pulse to Rock Polish and sweep the rest of his team (something it would have no trouble doing bar a MM miss). He sends in Heatran at full health with Shuca Berry to take the Earthquake, and miraculously it survives only taking 88% damage. Wait, what? How did this happen? After some calcs, it seems like Lord Liam put Adamant instead of Jolly which I run.
What should we do? My team's strategy is largely lost because he now knows that my Metagross outspeeds Flygon after a Rock Polish. Its up to you ErictheEspeon, and I will go along with whatever you decide.

I beat Wraith 2-1 on aggregate. He accidentally loaded the wrong team and won but then we had a rematch and I won 1-0 very close ggs
darn those misses haha. GG goodluck!
Yeah I am.. I even told you my times :/
