Round 1: Me (Bandit Keif) vrs. Some guy that looks my age (21)
I’m going to skip this one, seeing that he got beat in record time, and the fact that I don’t know his name. His deck didn’t have advanced enough cards for me to assimilate it anyway. A warning to those who challenge my deck! All your cards, all your combos, all your most powerful magic… consider it mine. They will be assimilated and used against what is left of your pathetic deck.
Round 2: Me (Bandit Keif) vrs. Marcus
Excuse me if I skip this one too. Marcus doesn’t have online at home and will not be able to read this tourney report anyway, so I will not write too much about him. He won the first duel giving him a false sense of confidence. Then my Borg style deck assimilated his best cards and used his own strategy against him. “Resistance is futile.” His beatdown monsters fell prey to my assimilation techniques and before he knew it. I assimilated the strength of his beatdown monsters and annihilated him.
Round 3: Me (Bandit Keif) vrs. Kaiba Corp Representative
(“Lord of Dragons” was on his name badge)
Seeing that this guy was the Dragon player of the elite dueling group “Kevin’s Force” I had to be careful. Before we even got to duel I had to fight people off with a stick to get them away from this dragon deck. Everyone was crowded around it wanting to play with it, wanting to feel the power of the Blue Eyes White Dragon that was left unharnessed by most decks. Well not this one, the Blue Eyes come out blasting their white lighting in this deck. And whats even more scary… those Blue Eyes White Dragons come out blastin at turn 2. Note this all who read this report! The player formerly known as “The Circus of Death Owner” will be now known as The Dragon Lord of Kevin’s force. Many have tried to make this deck and have failed. The Dragon Lord of Kevin’s Force has done the impossible! He tapped the power of the Blue Eyes and is using it against me.
I look at my life point meter, I’m at a safe 4450 with the feared Barrel Dragon on a clear field. The Dragon Lord of Kevin’s Force has 3 cards in his hand, 2700 life points and a worried look on his face. I knew that this duel was in the bag for me. Even if he did put a monster down in defense I could use the notorious effect on that monster and destroy it leaving his life points open to my assault. “Barrel Dragon attack the Dragon Lord’s life points!” And with that command a machine like dragon’s scream came from deep within its metal form, the feared Barrel Dragon attacks! The thunderous roar of its three guns fire, one after the other until all the Barrels of the Barrel Dragon are consumed with smoke.
Once the damage is done I look at his life point meter, it flashes red at a dangerously low 100 life points. I grin in victory. “End.” I say to the Dragon Lord of Kevin’s Force. He draws what could be his final card, THIS NEXT CARD WILL DETERMINE THE GAME!!! The Dragon Lord keeps a cool exterior, however I look at his little brother lets call him Mokuba, almost an exact copy of the Mokuba from the show but he has short black hair, wears glasses and his name is Chris. I look at Mokuba’s eyes and they grow wide as he smiles and tries to suppress an “OHHHH!”
I soon find out what the Dragon Lord drew, it was a Lord of D. He summons it to the field. Both me and my Barrel Dragon stare down at the puny lord of D. In my mind I shrug off this insult to my Barrel Dragon’s Strength. No way can a 1200 monster take on the power of my 2600 monster. I watch curiously at the next card he plays… It is a Flute of Summoning Dragon! A small bone flute materializes in front of the lord of D. He plays the flute and down comes the 2 strongest 8 star monsters in duel monsters! An invincible Blue Eyes White Dragon and the evil Tri Horned Dragon.
I stare at the field, how did this deck go from no monsters on the field to massive attack strength in 3 seconds flat!?!? That’s impossible! I’ve never seen that done before, especially against me. The Dragon Lord of Kevin’s Force commands his Blue Eyes to attack. “White Lighting!” is all I hear before the roar of the Blue Eyes White Dragon drowns out all sound, including the scream of my dying Barrel Dragon. I brace myself for the impact of the White Lightning, shielding my eyes from the blast.
I look up and see that my Barrel Dragon is gone. And I see 2 enormous dragons staring at me, rearing their serpentine heads, lead by a lord of D. After the blast my life points were reduced to 4050. The lord of D. attacks leaving me with 2850 life points. I look at my life point meter and compare it with the Dragon Lord’s. His is flashing red at 100 life points, mine is at a “safe” 2850. I look at the attack of the Tri Horned Dragon and realize that when it attacks I lose.
Round 4: Me “Bandit Keif” vrs. Serf
I am not a betting man, but win after win, my deck assimilated all the others and used their tactics against them. Betting on my deck is a sure thing. So Serf and I made a wager. Whoever loses this duel will have to RETIRE their deck in 2 weeks time. That’s right, I had my chance to put the “Disruptor Deck” into retirement. I told Serf that I would put his deck into a second rate convalescent home and keep it there without visiting privileges! Yea, in retirement the Disruptor Deck will be lonelier than Grandpa Simpson on Bingo night! A seat by the looking window? No way. Serf, your kids wont even be able to visit the Disruptor Deck in that home! “The Disruptor Deck won’t even be at your funeral!” (quote from Eminem) Your deck is going to pay a price for challenging the awesome assimilation powers of the Control Deck. To sum up this duel: Soul Release spanked him, owned him, then kicked him to the curb so hard that a man eater bug flew out and hit the curb across the street.
