1st round: Me yami sham vs mahir
I felt bad for vsing mahir cause the day before he only got his first starter deck and no boosters. I had to teach him bout tribute since he was in love with the tv show . But as i was saing he only started so i squashed him. I got a gopood hand. change of heart, summoned skull, la jinn,  sorcerer of the doomed and mystic clown. I played la jinn in attack mode and i put down change of heart. he played one card face down and a monster in defense. I drew a stern mystic and played it in defense and with my La jinn and destroyed his mammoth graveyard. He played another card face down. and played neo the magic swordsman and then played yami. (he forgot that la jinn gets a field power bonus) and attacked lajinn and lost 100 lifepoints. i drew something but i can't remember what it was. anyway i flip summoned stern mystic and saw his dragon capture jar and waboku. I used change of heart sacrificed neo for skull and attacked for 6400 to his life points but he for got to activate waboku( puhh starters). He drew a card and started to cry cause he was going to lose. I stopeed him and put my skull to the graveyard to make him happy. He then played a monster in defense. I drew my magician of faith in defense and attacked with la jinn and lost life points to his mystical elf. his tyurn. He plays another monster in defense mode.I don't botther to draw but flip summon magician of faith and get change of heart and he wabokues his mystical elfs attack(puhh starters). You know the rest. The two other duels were like that too.

2nd round: yami sham vs tauseef
tauseef is one of  my best friends and had to teach me the rules when i was a starter. I had a good hand again! Dark magician , neo , heavy storm, waboku , and acid trap hole. Tau seef must have had one too cause he played lajinn , yami, dark energy , and sword of dark destruction and one card face down. His lajinn had an attack on 2700. I got scared for a sec and trhen remembered my heavy storm. i  played it and destroyed all the magic and trap cards! I played neo in attack and waboku , trap hole, and acid trap hole face down. Tauseef played a monster in defense and attacked my neo but i wabokud. I drew mystical elf and played it in defense and activated acid trap hole and he got to use his witch of black forest to get summoned skull( i think). (probably cause thats why he probably keeps it in his deck).  he attacked my face down monster and lost 200 lps. then he played neo the magic swordsman in attack mode. My turn and i drew summoned skull. I sacrificed neo for skull and attacked lajinn taking 700 lifepoints. Tauseefs turn and he plays the card i hate RAIGEIKI! he destroys my monsters and plays skull sacrificing neo but i trap hole it. my turn and i draw monster reborn. I reborn my skull and attack his life points. he plays a monster in defense and plays  castle walls on it. I draw  yami. I play it and attack his face down magician of faith. he gets raigeki. hhis turn and he plays raigeki and then plays another lajinn and attacks my life points directly.i have no monsters and believe in the  heart of the cards and draw la jinn i play it so his lajinn won't attack. he goes and plays a monster in defense and ends his turn. i draw mask of darkness and play it in defense. he sacrifices his face down monster for catapult turtle in attack and sacrifices his lajinn to do direct damage to me. "Stupidness on his part. i flip summon mask of darkness and play waboku face down and sacrifice them both for the dark magician and  take out his catapult turtle. me going up 2800 him 4100
He plays a monster in defense and ends his turn.
