>The next and last big tournament for the 2013-2014 season is Worlds! Get hype! After that, we move onto a new BCR-on Standard format for the 2014-2015 season with some BW-on support starting with Fall Regionals.

>Furious Fists comes out on August 13th. Furious Fists contains 110 cards, 5 new Pokémon-EX (Heracross EX, Seismitoad EX, Lucario EX, Dragonite EX, and Hawlucha EX), and 2 new Mega Pokémon-EX (Mega Lucario EX and Mega Heracross EX). FAs for the set include the above non-Mega EXs (except for Hawlucha EX, which was an XY-P promo in Japan), Korrina, Fossil Researcher, and Battle Reporter. Like Plasma Blast and XY before it, Furious Fists will also have an Elite Trainer Box (you should already know what these are by now) and a new item referred to as a Launch Kit released on the 13th. Due to new Organized Play rules, this set will not be legal for Worlds despite being released 2 days before the tournament.

>Phantom Gate's international release has been confirmed to be on November 5th and it's international name is Phantom Forces! Confirmed EXs include Gengar EX, Manectric EX, Mega Gengar EX, Mega Manectric EX, and Aegislash EX from Japan's Hyper Metal Chain deck (The deck in question also features a Metal-type Diaga EX, so that'll probably be in the set as well). Phantom Forces will also introduce a new card mechanic called Spirit Link that is said to "push the limits of Mega Evolution."

ToTT: Worlds, of course! What deck do think will take it all? Do you think any LCQ winners will get top cut this year? Will we have another Mees/Gino fiasco like last year?
