Think I'm gonna have to do the responsible thing and skip out on a Vegas regional and save up for Seattle instead.

That said, Seattle + New Orleans + San Francisco would be an amazing 2026 of traveling.

Me: it's the Monday after a regional, I'm gonna take it easy.

Also Me: I should try to build a Lele team counter.

everyone out here complaining about reg H instead of just building a better team. Can't believe the format got solved for the 8th time, surely this time it'll get stale.

Ngl I spent about 1/4th of my drive home thinking the same thing.

VGC players have said this how many times and been proven wrong? Too many to count, I think. Lele is good, but not unbeatable. Blursa is strong, but not invulnerable.

Picked up a Challenge win and a top-256 Regional Championship finish at Milwaukee this weekend.

Wish I had gotten to day 2, but I'm happy with my play for the most part. Still struggling with consistency, but I'm improving and I'll be back better even better next time.
