I also got to play against Blacklag in the 4th rounds of Swiss, that was one good game (that he won)! Congratulations to him for winning.
Hope that I’ll actually muster up the courage to say “Hi” to people then 
It was a really wonderful experience, especially seeing as I got to Top Cut my first ever real-life tournament
I got to see a lot of players I had only heard about before, which was really nice, even if I was a little too Timid to really say hello to any of them…
I definitely would want to make a Team/Season Report on here after this
Though as I’m now planning on attending UK Nationals as well, that will have to wait after that
