The store was quite croweded for this
tournament. There was only about twenty-two Yu-Gi-Oh! duelists there, and
about thirty Warhammer 40k (which were quite loud and enthusiastic). I was
able to trade my Bazoo the Soul Eater for a third
Messenger of the Peace (which I immediately placed in my side deck fo
this tournament), my common Mystical Space Typhoon for a
Limiter Removal (for my upcoming Gradius Option deck), and my
Dark Necrofear for a Thousand Eyese Restrict (for an upcoming
Summoner of Illusions deck); thanks to Mike, Marco, and the kid
whose name I forgot (sorry kid) for the
trades, respectively.
This was the second tournament that I have
used my burner deck in, and it did quite well. A month ago I tested an
earlier version of this deck, and it got me to second place. Even with all
of the Magic and Trap removal around I did not experience any measurable
problems holding off opposing duelists. The deck for this week's
tournament was tweeked by adding a Cure Mermaid to the Main Deck and
another Gravity Bind, and taking out some totally bogous cards out of
my side deck and replaceing them with some most non-heinous cards. Well,
enough with gab and on to the tournament report.
Round 1
The Princess's Burn
vs. O.K. Deck
Duel 1
Roger the Skunk
8000-7900-7800-7700-8400-9100-9800-9000-9700-10700-11400-12100
Brandon
8000-7300-6800-6300-5800-5300-4800-4100-3600-2900-2400-1900-1400-900-400-0
No, you are not in "Twilight Zone"; yes,
the life point score that you see is real and not a figment of your
imagination. As you may have already noticed this duel took quite a
while. The Fire Princess with some life gain (sorry can't
remember which mechanisms). The Fire Princess was then vanquished
by the opposing duelist, but soon Jinzo #7 and slowly finished
him off.
Duel 2
Roger the Skunk
8000-9000-9500-10000-11300-11200-11100
Brandon
8000-7500-6500-4500-2500-500-0
The Fire Princess and Dian Keto the
Cure Master came out right away with protection to immediately burn my
opponent for 500 life points. I just pulled every card I
needed.
Round 2
The
Princess's Burn vs. The 80 Card Deck
Duel 1
Roger the Skunk
8000-6800-7000-7200-7100-7300-7100-7300-6800-7000-6920-7000-7100-7200
Ian
8000-9000-8500-8000-7000-6000-4700-2700-2200-1700-700-0
Ian's deck was quite large and completely
unfocused. Not a hard duel at all.
Duel 2
Roger the Skunk
8000-7700-7900-8100-6800-5800-6000-6200
Ian
8000-7450-6450-5950-4950-4650-4150-3150-1850-1350-50-0
Ian actually put in Magic Cylinder that
was in his side deck '_'. Marie the Fallen One provided all of
the life gain with Fire Princess making Ian feel the burn.
Round 3
The
Princess's Burn vs. Fiend Deck?
Duel 1
Roger the Skunk
8000-7000-8000-8500-9000-8700-9300-8600-7300-7800-8300-8800-9500-10200-11100-10850-11750-12650
Matt
8000-7500-7000-6000-5500-5000-4500-4000-3500-2500-0
Matt had a much better deck than the past two
duelist, and he actually did a decent amount of damage. My Gravity
Bind and Messenger of the Peace held him off until I got things
rolling.
Duel 2
Roger the Skunk
8000-7200-7700-8200-7450-7950-8450-9750-11050-12350
Matt
8000-7500-7000-6000-5350-4650-3950-950-0
Same as above but quicker.
Round 4
I got a "bye". So I played against Mike's
Deck Destruction deck that consisted of three Needle Worm, Morphing
Jar, Cyber Jar, etc. It really hurts to see all my good
cards go bye-bye when that Needle Worm or Morphing Jar #2
flips over. But none the less, I came back to beat Mike by using a
Cannon Soldier and my four other monsters on the field (no I do not use
Scapegoat) for the final volley of life burn.
Finals
The
Princess's Burn vs. Marco's Barrowed Deck
Duel 1
Roger the Skunk
8000-7100-5600-5400-5500-3400-800-0
Marco
8000-7500-5500-4800-3300-1300
Marco was not playing with his best deck
today because someone stole his deck and all of his good rares. To whoever
did that,
phhhhhhhhtttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had Marco
on the ropes in the beginning and would have won if could have guessed the right
card with Ominous Foutunetelling (I would have only needed two more
correct guesses out of the five or sic guesses I made). Marco brought back
around and finished me off.
Duel 2
Roger the Skunk
8000-7000-5700-5200-2700-3100-700-1100-0
Marco 8000-7000
The only damage done to Marco's life points was
by his Deliquent Duo. I just couldn't keep him at bay once he got
Jinzo out. Not to mention I made a few dumb
mistakes.
Even though Marco's deck was stolen he managed
to pull a Needle Worm from his tournament pack and get the $25 store
credit. Props to Marco who is still able to win with someone else's
borrowed deck.
I am in need of some help for impoving this burn
deck. What do you all think about the following:
Switch the two Man Eater Bug for two Dream Clown.
A
better name for the deck.
Any good suggestions for a Gradius deck.
Thanks for any suggestions that you might
have. If you have any questions for me or need help with
Yu-Gi-Oh! send me an e-mail, but I will not make a deck for you.
Thanks.
