I guess it's my time for OnePiece Utrecth Finals Recap: This was my first big OPTCG event, and had very few time to practice since I didn't play one piece for months basically prior to 20th August (RQ Barcelona) so I had to speedrun training in a proper way due to having no time

What the fuck Is going on with TPCi every day is getting worse. Can we get some accountability?
Here the latest new from Gdansk regional: An italian player (Vincenzo Cipolla) is playing on stream his top8. Many italian players there are ready to watch the game in the venue and they are sitting together in order to show him their support. Some judges approach them and threath them that every sign or reference to "iCaterpie" will automatically mean being removed from the venue. They asked me to remain anonymous because they are really scared to get retaliance from Tpci. All of this just because they are my friends. Have we really reached this point? How many limitations must players accept just to be able to play Pokémon? Is this limited to every player close to me or we have to extend this to all the italian community ? I feel really sorry for everyone. Please don't do anything that might lead to consequences for you in the Pokémon world because of me. I love you, but I'm not worth of your future.

That’s wild. You can just play a shovel for free if your name is NBC Eric?? Then conceal it underneath your seals from your opponent and judges 🤔 #FreeRites

What a joke
** A COMPLETELY NEW LEVEL OF CENSORSHIP IN GDANSK ** I'm watching the stream of the OFFICIAL channel of Pokemon tcg and after the match of @AlbertoContiTCG he was doing the standard interview post game. The caster asked him "do you have anyone at home who wants to shout out?" Then they silenced the answer of Alberto just in case HE MIGHT say something about me... I'm speechless... I'm not even allowed to be a memory in my friends hearth now...

This 100%
2 drops should not be hidden cards. Actually obscene that having 2 drops is not a cost at all in late game.

Tomorrow will be Gdansk-day, another important tournament in Europe, and it will be the first one I'll miss since it started. It's very strange for me not being able to prepare for this but mostly very sad not being able to be there to spend time with my friends and support them... I wish of all you the best of luck. I miss you.

Spoiler completo, ya podemos darle más forma. No estoy seguro de es necesaria la build Buster Call. Iría mejor en un meta de mesas grandes (Yenel, Kaido, Gunko). La versión sin Buster sería mejor para triggerear y para un meta más agresivo ( G Luffy, Elbaph, Xebec, Miracle).

A deck has no bad matchups if you don't insert the decks in the chart 🎶

I just found a deck that stomps both Riven and Kennen but I have too little time to make it perfect for Stuttgard... Let's see if it convinces me enough to bring it. #Riftbound

I’m writing this to clarify what actually happened for everyone who has asked me about the situation, as well as for those who have called me a cheater. Mera Mera: 6-1. No issues with anyone, no warnings. Finals: 9-1. I had no issues with anyone except one player who accused me of slow play (I was playing Kaido, he was playing Boa) because I won in extra time. I’m not going to get into that discussion, as it has nothing to do with the Don cheating allegations anyway. By the day of Top 32, I was clearly very tired. Top 32: My first match was on stream, with two judges at the table and the head judge watching the stream. During the match, I started my turn at 9 Don, used King’s effect to go up to 10, then after playing a card and DON!!-ing, I activated King’s effect again. Both the judges and my opponent immediately pointed out that I had already used the effect. I realized my mistake, apologized, and received a warning. The game ended and I won. Top 16: The head judge watching the stream warned me that another mistake about Don would result in a game loss. The match started, we were 1-1, and time was running out. I was trying to play faster. I had both King and Kaido on the field, played Linlin, and instead of resolving Kaido’s and King’s effects correctly, I ramped as if I had two Kaidos and no Kings on the field. The result was one fewer Don overall, but one extra active Don: 4 active Don instead of 3. Before I even had a couple of seconds to stop and think about what I had just done, the judge immediately stepped in and gave me a game loss. Everyone is free to believe that both the Top 32 and Top 16 mistakes were intentional. I can’t control what people think of me. But honestly, if I really were “one of the biggest cheaters in Italy,” as someone described me, I think I would have been a little smarter about it. Since the Finals, I’ve only played one other tournament, in Prague, where I made Top 4 without any issues of this kind. I received only one warning for miscommunication. That’s what actually happened. I want to thank everyone who supported me throughout this situation and encouraged me to write this post. I also want to thank everyone who purchased my guide despite the false accusations. Your support means a lot to me.

Great suggestion @riftboundop
I think it would actually be cool if for the RC decklists had to be submitted on wednesday and thursday there was a metagame breakdown. Gives hype towards decks people didn’t expect and overall healthy discourse online heading into the event. I’ve found it to be great in MTG PTs

Así es. En Pokémon puedes ser un claro tramposo, con pruebas en video y streaming y aún así hacer top cut en un regional. Pero no te quejes de un juez porque te dan permaban #FreeiCaterpie

Honestly this just shows to me that Kenny is a better deck than Riven tbh Same wr but way higher skill floor & better mirror means also that his wr gets tanked by worse players. Also beating directly riven adds up

Riven mirror has to be the worst matchup to play this game has seen
People will drop riven because the mirror is unplayable but then people will play riven because people will drop riven thinking the mirror is unplayable and then people will drop riven back because they think people will play riven thinking people will drop it because the mirr

This is just wrong? If I try inserting my bandai ID It says code doesn't exist and I was able to buy a finalist ticket with an open link that required no Id whatsoever. Anyone has a clue on how should I get finals ticket as a finalist?

#freeicaterpie Literally one of the best person I've had the pleasure to meet in the TCG space, other than one of the best players in Europe who teached so much to thousands (me included) and he's one of the reason why Pokémon Is so big in Italy. TPCi please revert, for once.
