Still the team I'm most proud of; wish I had discovered Basculegion before NAIC last year.
Very much considering doing a full team report on it, depending on how high I can get on the Reg I ladder, I just might.
Still the best Kyoger + Lunala player of the S/V era tho.

🌐 I teased the idea of a Wes titan pin a while ago but I revisited the design and gave him his companions. This is one of three sets that will be preorder only and limited edition! The main banner of titan pins will also have replacements later this year :)

I did manage a top-8 at a local Cup, so I've hit the BFL limit for both local events. Got a lot of room to improve on my Cup finishes still.

The GC was very rough this time around. A lot of mental errors on my part, and it didn't help that tons of people were on the same team, I think I played 6 or 7 mirror matches...

Paid off one of my student loans today!
2 down, 9 more to go 🙄
I don't regret my education for a second, but goddamn, the fact that I was allowed to agree to tens of thousands in loans at 18 years old, with no real idea how they would work, is kind of insane.

Well, not my best tour, but not the worst.
5-3 in sets, but my last two wins were ffs/no shows.
Could've played a lot cleaner, but I can definitely learn a lot from this one.
