Hello everybody,
Today I want to Talk about the April 1 Regional I
attended in IN.
(I will get back to making decks :P)
The tournament had some 247-250 people in
attendance. If you lost 2 games they kicked you out
simply because it was in a small room and after 2
losses you had no shot at top 8.
I
made top 8 running this deck. Take a look

notice how this deck SUCKS
It took me to top 8 and I love my cards, but it was
jank. No synergy, just randomness. On top of that
I ran an avarice with no support and it worked for
me every game. Every
GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I
won 4 games using Archfiend Soldier. He was enemy
controlled 2 times and smashing grounded after
killing lovely kycoo's. Or he was rammed into by
assailant, clearing the path for Jinzo who won me
some 3 games. I made top 8 with a 7:1 record. The
top 8 games where unnecessary because 4 people
already had an invite. Thus 4 were going out.
Sadly I lost my top 8 game in a 1:2 round. (I
freaking over reacted, using heavy storm with
reinforcements for a kill shot of 1000 damage. But
there was not one single warrior left.) Me with my
4 in hand card, 3900 LP, and some 2 set traps lost
from a topdecking kid who had 1000 LP left. My next
5 or so draws gave way to no monsters, oh well:P
I
congratulate him because honestly he needed a win
for nationals and he got one. Fighting a long 15
plus hours to get it.
Stupid me, I guess I am an average, Ugly
duelist. :P
My point from showing all of you my deck is to tell
you not one dark world deck made it past the first 2
rounds. Splash was common, but I was graceful
charity against some 6 duels and not once did a
goldd drop down. Also flip flop is still here, and
Thousand Eyes was rampant. One kid actually
brought it out 3 times in a duel using pot of
avarice 3 times and metamorphosis 3 times. Monarch
control was rampant, but dark world was no place to
be seen. Not even graceful has given dark world a
break.
But my decked sucked, 44 cards of randomness. How
does such a deck make the top 8 tables? Well you
simply learn how to play your cards. I took massive
advantage of people discarding smashing ground and
nobleman with graceful. I picked torrential tribute
out of 4 sets with mst. But in reality my opponents
where running slow decks. Monarch decks are slow
and hand disruption hurts them. Dark World is slow
and too dependant on your opponent. Flip Flop
Control is slow and can not stop mystic, exiled, 2x
nobleman of crossout. My deck is a variant of
something resembling aggro and it worked.
Chaos/goat control is slow. At this point we have
come to a scene in which control decks must focus
more offensively in order to have any fighting
shot.
Thus my prediction for the new format is beatdown.
Aggro decks are fast and hit hard. This format is
more about field control than hand control and we
will see a huge spike in people playing such decks.
Think about these things before you attend your next
tourny.
Join me in a few days when I finally show off mtk64
Gate Guardian Deck. He challenged me to make it
playable and I think I got it down.
