Hey! I'm Aneil and I've been playing the Pokemon TCG for over 15 years now. I've now had the opportunity to coach 20+ students with a very high return & satisfaction rate. I focus mainly on getting players to enjoy the game, through learning, winning & remembering why we play this game in the first place, fun. In my time playing, I've had success in both the Seniors and Masters division, having top 4 National Championship finishes as well as worlds invites in both! In the modern game, I've been able to day 2 International Championships a total of 4 times since coming back to the game in 2019. On top of that i recently managed to place in the top 16 the Latin American International Championships down in Brazil as well as top 16'ing a few regional championships over the past couple of years. Whether you've seen me on stream, on twitter, maybe you've even listened to my co-hosted podcast, you can probably get a good idea of my personality and coaching style. I'm also a coach outside of Pokemon. I'm the head coach of the mens' division 1 soccer team at the University of Toronto Scarborough, through being a player at the university and now a coach, I've learned plenty of what it means to be a good and successful coach at all levels. The beauty of coaching at a university is that you gain experience coaching all sorts of different people, doing this helped refine my approach and I'm happy to see that translate to Pokemon! My goal is always to help you achieve whatever it is you want to achieve. Maybe that's something small, something huge, or maybe you don't even know yet! That's what I'd like to help you figure out and accomplish. From gameplay, to deck choice, to preparation, to mentality in a tournament, I'm here to help you get to that next level! My coaching style is laid back and casual. I believe people learn best in an environment they feel most comfortable in, and I strive to create that environment for you as well as challenge you to take steps towards refining your game every session we meet. Thanks for popping by!

Lets put those finishing touches on! Some last minute deck advice, matchup talk, or whatever you want it to be. This session is designed for me to give you advice and for you to bounce some ideas off of me.
1-on-1 Coaching - 1 Hour
Pokémon TCG
These sessions are whatever you want them to be! My first sessions will typically be centred around understanding you as a player as well as the decks you enjoy playing and building. From there, we can spend the time deckbuilding, discussing matchups, metagaming, co-piloting games, playing against each other in certain matchups, or whatever else you feel like! As a coach, my goal is to best understand you and what works for you.
1-on-1 Coaching Session - 2 Hours
Pokémon TCG
This is my recommended length for a coaching session! 2 hours allows us the perfect amount of time to properly create/refine a list, metagame what we think we'll see at your next event, and also test some matchups and talk.
