3-0 me. <3 Yache Berry. Without it, I might not have come away with the win. (Although I had PZ, still.) It was a good game- mostly hax-free(although with one potentially game-breaking miss in the fiirst turn. This was only the first round of the tourney. I won in the second round over Gormenghast.


Pros:
Cressy-netting a couple of KO's
Garchomp- Cleaning up.
Yache Berry-saved my ass.
Xanoe_rules-for a great battle.
The Sleep Powder miss in the beginning- Extremely lucky.
PZ-For being a great lead.
Heatran-getting 2 KO's while paralyzed.

Slops:
Lucario- He did nothing (But helped me in the next battle)
Bronzong-At least he did something, but less than I'd like.
 
I appreciate the color tags, but the font tags don't work. Ugh.

Edit: I actually read it, and found the commentary to be a bit "bleh". Many times, you simply restate the events of the prior turn. ("He switched in X, as expected") without expanding on, say, why you expected such a thing. You switch a Heatraan into a Will'O'Wisp, and call it a good bit of predicting, but you need to go the extra mile and say why you predicted a Will'O'Wisp. Otherwise, you might as well have gotten lucky.
 
ouch. Ill read it again once you fit font tags.

Usually your stories are good so this should be very good in a board that has had few warstories lately

Don't C/P From MW just use notepad and then paste it here.

Edit: Thought you were Metal Force =( Anyway I still have seen yuo around (Fix those damn font tags!)
 
too much stalling for my liking and I think the comments are lacking

X killed Y is boring
X did its job is boring
Y is getting annoying is boring
Nice Prediction there by me is not only boring but comes off as overconfidence. The only time I like saying Nice prediction is when it is on both parts and it is very good prediction in matches
 
Yeah, there was a lot of stalling, but a lot less than some of my other matches. The comments are a little lacking, I agree.
 
A game including, Dusknoir, Bronzong, Regirock, and Cresselia spell for a bad warstory.

I didn't enjoy it that much, seemed like an average battle. But good win.
