GC改めて65位でした。 @JoeUX9 のRegional優勝構築を好みに合わせて少し変えたものです。 良い構築ですが、基本選出に素早さ操作がなく選出のパターンも多いのでそこまで初心者向けじゃないかも?

Went 9-3 for 56th in Indianapolis! @JoeUX9 beat me in the GCF and I decided his team was better! @FrostyTimp and @a810g helped a ton especially in day 2 🙏 With over 1000 players definitely my best result. Shout out Tyranitar, my GOAT flinched like crazy. See y’all at NAIC!
