Winners of PokeBeach’s October Community Blog Contest!

TCGplayer And PokeBeachPokeBeach’s October community blog contest has concluded and the winners have been chosen!

Community blog veteran PMJ is back to claim another first place victory! His article, Shunning Shaymin — An Intro to Competitive Play and Four Standard Decks Without Shaymin-EX, gives some helpful tips for obtaining the elusive Shaymin-EX, as well as four competitive deck lists for those of us who aren’t able to afford them. He will walk away with a booster box from TCGplayer.com!

While he wasn’t able to claim another first place, Serperior won second place this month with another excellent article: “Gyara-who?” An Inside Look at What Made Waves in Orlando! This article goes in depth on the crazy Gyarados deck that recently took two top-32 placements at Orlando Regionals. He has been awarded 12 booster packs for his hard work!

Please take the time to check out both of these awesome blog entries if you haven’t already. Both winners spent a great deal of time writing them, and both give some great advice on how to improve your game. They are definitely worth your time.

And, of course, all of our members who submitted community blog entries this month deserve huge thanks as well! Our community blog wouldn’t be anything without you, and we thank each of you for your hard work!
