Sunday was the day of another VS PCQ. Even though I do not play in it sometimes, it is a good excuse for me to go to Suntec, look around and have a good dinner with friends.
It seems that the tournament has now been permanently moved to a room that is much bigger than the old one. I find it quite comforting to see that the player base for the game is increasing. On that day, there were 20 in Sealed and 16 in Constructed. I found the number of Constructed players to be surprisingly low; I guess that there are quite a number of people like myself who dislike playing Modern Age. Oh, well. Golden Age tournaments will resume again starting from the next PCQ. I kinda feel that the Marvel Modern format is quite a waste. After today, Spider Friends and Sinister Syndicate will once again be retired to the hall of crap, whereas the four Marvel Knights teams will be able to survive another season when the Avengers set gets released. I shall keep this in mind next time when deciding what to keep or sell come DC Modern.
Anyway, Jeffrey and Kelvin Soh managed to get into the top 8 again. I kinda half-admire/half-envy their consistency in VS tournaments. I hope I can improve and be just like them.
I left the tournament room earlier, choosing not to stay for the lenghty finals. Me and Amerell were deciding where we should go for dinner. He didn't like any of the places I suggested and instead, brought me to Sizzlers. This was actually my first time at Sizzlers and it was possibly one of the best dinners I've ever had in a long time. I ordered chicken and went to the buffet table to get myself some pasta, potato, mushroom soup, and ice-cream. I was so full that I had to visit the toilet thrice after we left the restaurant (it's probably from drinking 4+ glasses of water to wash down all the food). I'll probably recommend Sizzlers to my friends the next time they want to suggest dining places.
