Notes
  • This tournament was the scene of Daniel Altavilla's infamous, oft-memed "N bait" play. On stream in Round 11, badly losing game 3 against Philip Barta's Seismitoad-EX/Crobat, Altavilla played a Professor Sycamore, then took several minutes to look through his discard pile before attempting to play an N. Barta was not tricked, but had he not realized N was the second Supporter, and shuffled his hand into his deck, the resulting penalty would have won Altavilla the game. While Altavilla's intent is impossible to prove, the "N bait" has tarnished his reputation somewhat despite his continuing competitive success, and the fact that he went on to win this tournament further fueled the fire.
