The People of the Tournament said that they would close the doors at 10.00 AM, and that you couldn't get in afterwards, so just to be sure, I left early from home. When I was on the way by train, I saw other people who were

also participating in this tournament. I could see that by seeing their wrist-bands witch they wore (just like me). That wrist-band was your ticket in, so it was extremely important.

I arrived at the Tournament-location around 9.00 AM. So I (and about 2800
others) waited about 1 hour, before we were let inside. Man, standing still makes your tired!
Anyway,
I wasn't even inside for 5 minutes, when I got about 5 people coming to ask me if I had Yata Garasu, and Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End, and if

I would trade them. Well, I don't have either of them, but I could guess what people would be playing with this tournament;-) Anyway, After another hour of waiting (at least this time we had chairs), the first matches were put on the wall. Finally, at 12.00 AM I was finally going to duel.

Duel #1
me/jan-willem/yami moto V/S Cliff Alny(stall/control deck)
-
We shook hands and introduced ourselves to each other. After I asked if he would mind if I would record every detail of the duel for this report (and he didn't mind) we started.

Round 1:
Match 1:
-
* He played Graceful Charity, and threw Djowgen the Spiritualist and Thunder

Nyan Nyan to the graveyard. He played 3 m/t cards facedown, and set one monster.
* I played Raigeki, and killed his Magician of Faith. I set one monster, and

placed 2 m/t facedown.
* He played one m/t facedown
* I played Harpies Feather Duster, and wiped his m/t cards. I summoned Gemini Elf, and attacked his set card. It was a Cyber Jar >.<, He set 3 monsters, and I set 2 monsters and special-summoned Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer. With Kycoo I attacked his set monster. It was a Magical Scientist. I played Pot of Greed, + Graceful Charity, and threw Man-Eater bug, and Gemini to the graveyard.
* He flips Magician of Faith face up, and gets his Harpies Feather Duster back. I thought he would HFD my field, but instead he used Heavy Storm. It didn't make any difference to me, because I activated my Imperial Order.
* I too flipped my Magician of Faith for my Harpies Feather Duster, and tribute it for my Jinzo. I didn't pay 700LP for my imperial order, and played Harpies Feather duster, and attacked his MoF with Jinzo (-2100) and attacked directly with my Kycoo to find out first hand, that Kuriboh isn't extinct yet from the Yu-Gi-Oh!-world.
jw: 8000 - Cliff: 5900

to 3400, and attack directly.
jw: 6000 - Cliff: 1900
* He plays 1 m/t facedown.
* (I lose 1000LP due Lava Golem's effect) I put "my" Lava Golem in defence-mode (maybe he has a mirror force?), and attack directly with Lilly,

and because he didn't counter I pay 2000LP to give her 3400 damage.
jw:3000 - Cliff: -1500
When we were done with match one, we heard, that this battle wasn't legal, due a computer-error. It didn't count! Ah, well, at least it was a good warm

up.

When the 4th match was at his end, after a long period of waiting, a postage

was pinned down on the messenger-board with the results so far. I saw that out of my league, witch consisted of ~200 people, I was ranked 37th. I won 3

out of 4 duels. After a period of waiting, the knock-out rounds began (lose one time, and your out!). Unfortunately I could not participate anymore, since I had to head home because I had to go to work today witch started at 6PM.
-
I told my opponent that he had won and left the battle city tournament. Ah well, I made good trades, won 3 out of 4 battles and had good conversations with fellow duellists.

Well this was my report, and more are coming, definitely!
Mail me if u have any tips/questions, etc.at:
