Match 1

Me vs Austin

This kid is only 7. I had to go on the offense and summon Exodia. I had to teach him a couple of things. That's okay, we all were green to one point.

Game 1 (7300 - 350) = Exodia

He starts to take in, what I taught him and starts to life point damage to me. Around 3000 points due to me attacking him, to summon Exodia.

Game 2 (2950 - 3500) = Exodia

Match 2

Me vs (???)

Not much to report about this kid. He has been around for awhile now and I thaught he would be a challenge. He was more interested to see how fast I could summon Exodia.

Game 1 (4900 - 6900) = Exodia

Game 2 (3100 - 6350) = Exodia

Match 3

Me vs Brenden

Brenden is one of our strong duelist. For this day he is running a fusion deck with fussion material subs from TP1. Games 1 and 2 goes about the same. I could not touch him. The most pieces I could get was 3. Not much I could do, when he dark hole and raigeki my flip effects and mystic tomato and even my millennium shield.

Game 1 (0 - 8000)

Game 2 (0 - 8000)

My son Anthony makes it to round 3 but only to face our #1 duelist.

Props to Nate and Mike S. for giving us a good show in the finals.

Nate, you'll get him next time.

Mike S.,hang in there. That's the price for being #1. Everyone wants a shot at U.

Sorry about the double post last week. The first one had the wrong email address.

Exodia players, keep up on Wartortle's preview of the next set.

Beware of this card:

Turner of the dead: Kaiku

Effect, level 4, 1800/700

Dark, spellcaster. When this monster does battle damage to your opponent, remove up to 2 monsters in your opponents graveyard from the game.

There is more text, but that is the most importat one.

My source is the Semptember issue of Inuqest. It covers all the Japanness cards up to New Ruler.

I am looking to put together a machine deck.
