Tebezu on
YuGiOh
It is time I rant.......................................................................
As stated I attended Shonen Jump
Boston. All in all the trip cost me
some 300 dollars and I ended up
playing for 2 hours before dropping
from the tourney.
Before leaving a bunch of people
were making fun of me, telling me
how dumb it was for me to go.
Currently I wish I had listened to
them.
THE GOOD
Team Necrosis, if any of you have
forgotten our name , is Co-Lead by
John Schiavone, the founder and
developer of
team BTA from New York. Bobby
Chambers , the current Shonen Jump
Champ, whom beat John Jensen (2 time
Shonen Champ) is on team BTA. My
team is now affiliated with a Shonen
Jump winning team.
(I'm so proud)
I
was correct in my predictions of
what would win the tourney.
-Focus on monster removal and the
game will be handed to you. Since
ideas are spread amongst players, we
were debating on the best way to
tackle this jump. Monster removal
has always been the key. May it be
Chaos Sorcer, BLS, Chaos Emperor
Dragon, Zarborg, etc. The more ways
you can kill a monster, the easier
the game will be. Thus a deck that
my team developed in a sense (which
looked almost like mine but with
less monster removal) is now the
current Cookie Cutter. I love my
ability to read into the future:P
So the good news being team BTA has
won a jump and I am a Genius.
THE BAD
The reason I say I am a genius and
make it so evident that my insight
going into the jump was correct, is
basically me being therapeutic to my
open wounds. I am licking my paw,
trying my best to remove whatever
thorn is stuck in it and simply
looking for a way to make myself
feel better. As mentioned, people
laughed at my expense upon telling
the locals I was flying out to
Boston. How funny it would be to
lose the first 2 games.
HAHA, it is hysterical~
I
am not laughing. I lost my first 2
games, to two very poor players I
might add (YOU CAN TELL,
There the one's WHO DON'T USE
SLEEVES and at some point in the
game say something about how good
Pot of Generosity is:P)
My first loss was the result of 3x
Gigantes and an Injection-Fairy Lily
mowing me down on turn 3. My second
game and second loss was the result
of being owned by a spellcaster
deck. The reason for such horrid
and humiliating ways to feel like a
loser, let down, and plain retard
for spending 300 dollars to go to
Boston Massachusetts, which I feel
is a horrid and sad city, crowded
with backward roads and mean
spirited cab drivers, is
Gravekeeper's Spy and Zarborg the
Thunder Monarch's fault. The entire
night before, my deck was running
smoothly, and as demonstrated by our
new champ, feeling like it could win
a Jump. I get there and every
freaking game I play my opening hand
has two zarborg and two spy. Not
only that, IT GETS WORSE, I draw
into MST and Nobleman of Crossout my
next two turns. By that point, in
an ubber aggressive format, I've
done lost.
Thus luck, probability, etc. is no
longer my friend. From this day
forward I will never run 2x
Gravekeeper's Spy in any deck.
Never, ever, ever!
I
hate spy. I hope she dies.
Thus I scrubbed out of a tournament,
am out some money, and worse of all
was on the brink of tears due to
my disappointing and utterly failed
attempt at winning a SHRINK and
proving to you all, my readers and
supporters, that I'm better than my
fourth ranked state standings says.
To make the weekend even better, the
next day at the regional I go 5 and
3. Losing 2 games to Cyber-Stein
(WHICH YOU SHOULD ALL SIDE-DECK
AGAINST, look at the top 8 decks.
The only kid not running stein was
Bobby, it makes me happy to know he
won his games legitimately :P) and
my last one, which would have placed
me in top 8, as the end result of a
judge not knowing what he was
talking about.
I'm sorry, I let you all down too.
You should probably stop reading
here, but it gets worse.
...
THE UGLY
While at the Jump I saw a lot of Jae
Kim, he wasn't having a hot weekend
(HE WAS BESIDE ME) and I just
consider that ugly. Apparently the
two of us don't like one another, I
don't know but the guy says I'm
crazy and for some reason tries his
best to avoid me.
I
Love You Jae, I'm your Buddy, don't
fear me :P......
You see, where I come from, it's
corn bread and chicken. Good old
southern liven...
But where I was; was not a place I
want to ever go back too.
Thieves were all over the campus,
pulling cards and people were
fighting. A horrible environment.
The tournament went quickly but
fights were breaking out all over
the place. People cussing at each
other, calling each other names.
Some scrawny little punk was yelling
at one guy for the entire 2 day
tourny. Calling him a cheater and a
loser. Telling the judge the other
kid was looking at his bottom card,
while simultaneously shuffling his
own deck and setting it. Grabbing
the other guys cards and bad
mouthing the other one to hell.
Where I'm from you knock someone's
front teeth out for that.
Especially if they follow you
around. This poor kid took it all
day.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
But it did not matter, all over the
place people were calling each other
crappy duelist, losers, ETC. mixed
with a bunch of words I do not think
acceptable to write.
What kind of a gaming society do we
have here? People seem to have
forgotten that it is a card GAME. A
GAME made for 6 year old kids at
that. I'll admit that the only
reason I am good (I am going off my
standings and past regional/jump
experience) is the result of not
having a girl friend, but in no way
does beating another player give me
the right or authority to judge
them. If they are bad I should
offer advice. If they're good and
got a horrid hand as I did, luck
happens. Winning a game does not
make you better in any way or closer
to achieving godly perfection. As a
gaming society we should look to
help and not hurt. The world is
already full of war and terror. Why
do we need to bring these sick
concepts into the world of
Yu-Gi-Oh? This game should be an
escape from reality, not another
version of how bad it is. The
topper, which all of you should
retain for the rest of your lives,
winning a game of YUGIMONS does not
improve the quality of your
life. IT'S NOT LIKE WINNING THE
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. (To win that
you need a lot of money:P) So
people stop telling your opponent
that they suck and you king of the
world. I restate: your playing a
game made for 6 year old children.
Nonetheless, all day people walked
around stealing and trashing the
whole convention center. Tearing up
crap cards and leaving garbage and
card sleeves all over the place,
instead of giving crap Neo's and
Sabersaurus to younger players who
still view the world as nice and
loving.
That is not the way we should
behave, as a society, card players,
or people. To lose the Jump and 300
dollars was bad. The stealing of my
cards and my now lack of trust for
certain BTA members is sickening.
I'm telling all of you right now,
whoever stole my...
1) Armed Dragon Level 10,
2) Two Freed the Brave Wanderer
3) Injection Fairy Lily
I
will be praying for you.
According to Christianity, which 3/4
of the US population claims to
belong, we should pray for our
enemies (WWJD). But it does not
make a clear statement as to what we
should pray for. I pray that
whoever stole my cards wakes up
tomorrow in the back of someones
van, hog tied, gagged, bound, and
going down the back roads of KY,
where they are forced to listen to
Blue-Grass music for the next 59
years of their lives and cleaning
horse stalls relentlessly with no
shovel, only a tooth brush and a
comb.
Yes thieves were everywhere. We are
a gaming society that apparently
hates its gamers. Within 2 hours
over 40 things were stolen. Deck
Boxes missing, valuable cards
stripped, etc. My friend and
Co-Leader John Schiavone had his
deck with him all day. After he was
done competing someone stole his
deck. In his deck box sits my Cyber
End Dragon along with all kinds of
rare and holo card assortments,
which took him years to get.
Thus I pray that person is brought
down the back roads of KY Hog Tied
and gagged, cleaning horse stalls
with a comb and toothbrush as well.
Jae Kim's Fusion Deck and Side-Deck
went missing, all kinds of kids were
walking around crying about how
someone yanked their newly bought
Cyber Dragon's. YOU PEOPLE WHO
STEAL SICKEN ME. One day the world
will get even.
The fact that I have to say the
worst thing that happened to me was
I lost an Armed Dragon LV. 10, 2x
Freed the Brave Wanderer, 300
dollars out of pocket, developing
friendships, respect for the members
of my co-leaders team, and a Cyber
End Dragon as a good thing really
makes me wish the plane crashed
too. Why Not.
I
warn all of you, if you ever go to
these away tournaments bring only
your essential cards, never lend
anything to a friend that your not
willing to lose (cause getting into
a fight about how your teammate is
going to replace your stolen card is
never fun), and keep everything with
you. Do not hesitate in telling
people to not pull your cards out of
their cases, and most importantly
avoid orgy trades. "The kind of
trading where 3-9 people are all
looking at the same cards. It is
easier than you may believe for
stuff to disappear."
If anyone wants to talk, will
sell/trade me back my lost cards
cheaply, wants to help sponsor me
(LOL), has a killer deck, etc. I can
be contacted at
Tebezu@gmail.com.
But for awhile I am angry with this
game. I put so much time into it,
help so many people without any real
benefit other than a thanks man, and
spend hours before every tourney
helping kids build their decks, to
be rewarded with this.
Right now I hate yugioh and want my
LV. 10 or a LV. 10 back. I have
actually summoned and played that
card. To know some thief took it
and sold it off for 15 dollars makes
me really hate people. So if
anyone has one hit me up.
On a side note, I give props out to
Team Overdose. If it was not for
them John Schiavone would not have
been capable of participating in the
next day regional (Placing 18 out of
some 300). They gave him all kinds
of staple cards like D.D. Warrior
Lady, Mystic Tomato, etc. and helped
him build a decent deck in a matter
of minutes. They really came
through for my pal. I find it funny
how life makes your friends into
enemies and your enemies into
friends.
Until next time,
This if Forest telling ya all to
simmer down.
