Well, this tourny was fairly small, about 20 people.  It was me, my friends Adam and Brad, this one kid who i swore to get my revenge on (long story, it ends with him buying my Toon World!), and a couple of other guys.  It was 4 rounds of swiss and then the top 8.  Anyway, my deck was awesome, and I did great, so heres the "Severe Beating Beatdown":

3 7-Colored Fish (good attacker)
3 La Jinn (good attacker)
2 Wall of Illusion (good effect)
2 Giant Soldier of Stone (good attack, good defence, level 3)

1 Snatch Steal (second Change of Heart)
1 Heavy Storm (destroys all m/t cards)
1 Giant Trunade (or, an alternative to Heavy Storm...)
2 Tribute to the Doomed (automatically destroys a mon, then i reborn the card I discarded a card)
2 Fissure (destroys mon free of charge)
1 Megamorph (doubles my mon's attack power)
2 Mystical Space Typhoon (destroys m/t cards, and its a quick-play)

1 Seven Tools of the Bandit (negates traps)
1 Magic Jammer (negates magics)
1 Solemn Judgment (negates traps and magics)
1 Spellbinding Circle (stops your skull in its tracks)
1 Mirror Force (bye bye mon, what, no attack done to me either?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

My deck brings up so many combos, its very powerful and fast!  Notin much about the rest.

Round 1: Severe Beatings vs. Lucus (playing a mixture deck)
Game 1 -
Well, i started slow, man-eater, 7-colored fish, dark hole, mystical space typhoon, and a summoned skull.  Still, he had worse, i drew confiscation and used it, got rid of his only mon, a la jinn.  That was his only mon for the next 5 turns, so i just kept on attacking and attacking, then i won.
Game 2 -
I really don't remember this battle, but i know that i beat him with a megamorphed Summoned Skull.
2-0

Round 2: Severe Beatings vs. ??? - didn't give his name (playing yet another mixture deck)
This round went so fast, it wasn't even funny.  I beat him with a Summoned skull and 2 La Jinns.  Both games went like ***THAT***
2-0

Round 3: Severe Beatings vs. Mike (playing a beatdown with Relinquished)
Game 1 - 
I played my deck really horribly this duel, just was toying with him.  He won the first round.
Game 2 -
This time, he asked for my best he wanted a good duel.  I agreed and destoryed all of his mon!  He didn't stand a chance!
Game 3 -
Same as above
2-1

Round 4: Severe Beatings vs. Adam (playing a cyber-beatdown, super-fast beatdown)
Game 1 -
I knew i was gonna lose.  Adam always beats me.  I could tell he was toying with me, that was until i destroyed all 3 of his Summoned Skulls.  Then...
I was roadkill!!!
Game 2 -
Don't really want to talk about this duel...

So, those were the swiss rounds, now comes to the top 8!

I was way in there, comming in at 3rd so far.

I was facing some kid named Brandon, and he was a pain in the neck.  If it wasn't one card I played, it was the thought that I was cheating!  This kid was sooooooooo annoying!!!

Finals Round 1: Severe Beatings vs. Brandon (playing a beatdown with cards like Mystic Clowns and Koumori Dragons?)  Sounds screwy to me!
I couldn't stand him!!!  All he did was complain.  I was a judge!!!  He doesn't dare go against me!!!  He said that I was a cocky little duelist who didn't know how to play.  Anyway, that was the last straw!!!  I brought the big guns and blasted him off the face of the Earth!!!!!!!

Finals Round 2: Severe Beatings vs. Brad (playing a a really good beatdown)
Game 1 -
I knew Brad's deck well, i knew all of the Metal Raiders, Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon and Tournament Packs.  I think I knew what Magic Ruler cards he had too, Snatch Streals and Delinquent Duo.  It was going on left and right, using trap holes, pot of greeds, magician of faiths, and so much more.  We went 20 staright turns with no monsters!!!  Eventually, he beat me game 1.
Game 2 -
I annialated Brad this time.  Plus, he got monster denial!
Game 3 -
same as above, monster denial with me lowering his draw power to 1 card per turn.  But what really sucked was when I Mytic Space Typhooned his Mirror Force when I had 3 La Jinns, 7-Colored Fish, and a Summoned Skull.  He just looked at me very weirdly and was finished.

Finals Round 3: Severe Beatings vs. Adam (same deck as before)
This was it.  The finals.  I was facing Adam.  I won 1, he won 2.  Thats about it!
Game 1 -
He annialated me with me having monster denial.
Game 2 -
I annialated him when he had monster denial.
Game 3 -
He took me out!!!

That was it!  2nd place!!!  better than 3rd at least and I have my title at 2nd place!!!
