@everywingull Hey welcome Cara, hows your attempt at competitive pokemon tcg going? What decks are you playing with at the moment?

@tetroe hi Jay! NAIC was my first official event, and I brought Ting-Lu. I knew it wasn't the meta call (especially with a plurality of Gardevoir being widely expected), but I just needed to get used to tournament logistics and it was a fun deck that I knew well.

I went 4-5, which was about what I was hoping: won a few matches, got over that first tournament anxiety, and now I have a tangible goal in getting into day 2.

@tetroe On TCG Live I've also been playing Alex Schemanske's United Wings list (with a change or two), which is another really fun deck that probably won't win any big tournaments lol.

@tetroe Now the plan is to aim for local cups and challenges. I will most definitely update when I have more news on that front! :wingull:

@everywingull that is actually a pretty solid placing, especially for your first major tournament. I wouldnt get dishearted by that. I tell my mates that consistently being in the top 50% of your tournaments is a pretty good thing to aim for at the start :)
