This is the Deck that I had at the tournament. I have made some slight adjustments/improvements since the tourney. I added anther Crass Clown and another GSOS and took out the White Magical Hat. I also made some adjustments to my sidedeck
I drove to Ames with my friends, and my first round I had to duel my best friend Eric, too bad for him.
Duel One
Me vs. Eric (gravity bind deck)
I don’t want to go into much detail here, my clowns dominated his gravity bind deck both games. He only got about 3 attacks in total and he used Ceasefire both games.
He pulled a Revival of the Dokurorider from his tournament pack and he traded it to me for my black illusion ritual, which he sold to the store for $5.
In between duels one of my friends that graduated last year showed up with his brother and they bought about $50 worth of MTG cards, I talked to him until the next duel started.
Duel Two
Me vs. Stephen (the usual winner who beat me last time, gravity bind deck)
Game 1
He only attack me once for 3000, I think it was with a Hayabusa and a Nimble Momonga. Besides that the only damage I took was Premature Burial and Messenger of Peace. I killed him using Hayabusa and Crass Clown.
Me 3400
Stephen 0
Game 2
This game lasted FOREVER. I got Messenger of Peace out early and it drained away my life points. Before the Duel was over, time was called (45 min) but they let us finish and he beat me when I only had 3 cards left in my deck. At this point everyone was starting to watch us because I’m now told that Stephen has never lost a tournament.
Me 0
Stephen 4300
Game 3
The person in charge set a 5 min time limit and that’s all I needed. Jinzo had been waiting in my sidedeck up until this point. I switched Jinzo in along with a fissure. I got Jinzo on my first draw and used in to beat him down. Jinzo+Hayabusa=Death.
Me 7000
Stephen 0
Duel 3
Me vs. some kid whose name started with A (gravity bind deck)
Does anyone else notice a pattern, everyone good at the tourney had gravity bind decks.
Game 1
This one was rather close. He played Jinzo, then I played Jinzo and it went on like that for a long time. He used Giant Rat very effectively to bring out Dream Clown, but I eventually gained the upper hand using Crass Clown and I finished him off.
Me 1550
A 0
Game 2
This was rather sad, I used Crass Clown with Hayabusa and got him down to 1800 before he got up his defenses, then I drew a Ceasefire and waited until the right time and used it to finish him. He did 500 damage to me somehow?
Me 7500
A 0
Duel 4 the finals
Me vs. Devon (gravity bind deck)
This duel lasted forever, it actually got a bit tiresome because I had been playing against deck similar to mine all night.
Game 1
This game was very close. I had him down to 1250 when he got set up to attack for 3100 and did so two turns in a row do win this game.
Me 0
Devon 1250
Game 2
This game was much different. The only attack he got in was one GSOS. I got out Jinzo early and killed him quickly
Me 6500
Devon 0
Game 3
I couldn’t get anything going. I only attacked once, my messenger of peace drain my life points down to 100 and he drew Jinzo #7 right when he needed it to finish me off. His counter traps really killed me in this game.
Me 0
Devon 6600
I came in second place again. We both got 4 tournament packs for getting to the 4th round. The person had 4 in each hand and just handed them to us. Devon pulled a Morphing Jar and I pulled ALL commons. That really bites.
