This deck is basically beatdown with cards that support the
theme. The main atributes are Fiends and spellcasters. All this deck does is
power up monsters and destroys the oppnents with magic, traps, and such. When I
got there I saw only two people there entering the tournament, but more people
came, which added up to seven. It was a double elimanation match which means if
you lose two times, your eliminated.
Round 1: kid with Yugi Starter Deck with
Some MR packs.
Duel
1: Unlike many duels that last long this didn't. He played really weak cards on
defense like winged dragon and Baron of he Fiend Sword. I summoned Summoned
Skull and some of my other level four monsters easily took him out.
Duel 2: Same as the first duel, only he misued some cards
like not sacrifing level 5-6 monsters. The match was simply won.
Round 2: store manger with heavy offensive
deck
Duel 1: This was one of the hardest matches i had today. He
kept using fissure and trap hole to limit my monster amount. He also used direct
damage magic cards. As soon as I get out my Dark Magician, he uses change of
heart to sacrifce it for Blue Eyes. With some more assistance from his Lajinn
and Dark Elf, he slayed me fast.
Duel 2: He got a bad hand during this turn. With only one
monster (man eater bug) on the field, the game was easy to win. And to make sure
he couldn't get me, i used white magical hat to make sure he didn't try anything
funny.. Using a lot of beatdown monsters, he was defeated.
Duel 3: He got a lot mons out on the field, but I dark holed
him to get the game . As I was about to win, something u should know not to
do. If u know you are going to win, don't put anything down on your
turn. I put down man eater bug and he beat me using Just Desserts! I feel
stupid. However since this was my first loss, I was still in the
tourney.
Round 3: a rival with a mixture of
cards
Duel 1: He had an ususal deck with no strategy. It was simple
when I had some man eater bugs in his path with a wall of illision. In an
unbelievable move i used change of heart on his monster to sacrifce for Dark
Magician. He left his monsters on defense when it got worse for him when i
summoned my second dark magicain. Soon he had no monsters to defend homself
with.
Duel 2: For safe measure, I put Solemn Judgement in my side
deck with White Magical Hat in exchange. He played card destruction ridding me
of Dark Magician, the using monster reborn on it, but i counted it with my
Solemn Judgement leaving my lp at 4000. I put all of my mon on the field, but he
destroyed them with dark hole. He put his monsters on a heavy attack
easily with ulitimate offering on the field. Because of my real low lp, i
lost.
Duel
3: I returned my deck back to normal. I summoned my Dark Magican within the
second turn following by Summoned Skull. He killed my weaker monsters, but
because my Robbin Goblin rid him of his hand, he was easily
beaten.
Round 4: store manger again
(finals)
Duel 1: Every time I placed down a monster, he detrooyed it
with a fisure, trap hole, or man eater bug or used justdesserts.
This made me made as I couldn't defend and
had to take the monsters' attacks blow from blow.
Duel 2: One of the most competive duels in the game. I got my
Dark Magician out with my soul exchange.and wall of illision.
He used paralyzing potion to block that
from attacking as well as a summoned skull I summoned turns later. My Magician
of Faith gave me control of the gaame with change of heart to give me the
second of my Summoned Skull. Soon, he had no monsters to defend with as i
finshed him.
Duel 3: This victory was easy for him. I didn't have any
monsters to summon as he easily took me out with his monsters and
ookazi.
I finished in second
with ten dollars in store credit. I got one metal raiders pack and got a first
edition Magic Jammer. I know I'm coming back Saurday.
