There are many twists, turns, and combos in this deck. I don't like simple to use decks with few strategies. First of all, there is the Phoenix which gets out pretty fast. Then the Nimbles help me with Tribute Summons and gain me life points so I can take damage and pay wile not losing. Pot of Avarice plays a great role in here. Helping me not deck out. Drawing me cards. Returning Magician of Faith so I can re-use it. Which that combo has worked for me many times. I have a lot of tributes so I have cards to help them get out and there are cards to control the opponent and helping me. Magic and trap destruction is important. The cards work together well.



First Match
Me vs. Joe
He beats me first round and I catch up in the other 2. It's the farthest duel in my mind, so I couldn't say much, but I took out his D.D. Assailants and Cyber Dragons. Nimbles kept him at bay. My strong monsters knocked him out. He got so angry when he lost. He threw his cards all over the table, made a fit, and started being mean to me and tried to insult me.
Sore loser.



Second Match
Me vs. Bill
He is pretty much the top dog usually in the tournament. He loves to cookie cut and copies all the Shonen Jump Winning Decklists. First game I took the win by using the Monarchs to dwindle his card advantage and his life points. The nimbles gained me enough life points, so I could easily survive. And I won. He side decked. Probably Kycoo becuase he is not a fan of me re-using my Avarice. I didn't get to see it. Second duel, he bottomlessed my Phoenix and slammed me directly with the 2 worthwhile cards I do not own. Cyber Dragon and D.D. Assailants. Yes, Nimbles hung me in, but I topdecked nothing but tributes. One of the only downfalls of my deck. Third duel Phoenix got out. Zaborg took a hit for the team by ridding of D.D. Assailant so Phoenix was safe. He had nothing to stand against the Phoenix and he took direct attacks like it was the year 2099.



Third Match
Me vs. John
His last name sounds like something perverted. Hahahahaha! Anyways, he got a horrible hand along with me in these games. Difference, he caught on and I didn't. I just wanted to try out Goldd and it's not worth it's parking space here. I drew tributes and he drew easy summonable monsters so I got my butt whooped. But, at least I went down fighting a good game. Damn Cookie Cutter!!!



Fourth Match
Me vs. Dan or something (Forget his name)
He used a zombie deck. Most of the cards were from the structure. He got out to a good start by special summoning all these Despair of the Darks with Call of the Mummy. He was out-swarming me until I drew Dark Hole and I kept myself defensive. He started to bug me by special summoning a level 4 monster with Call of the Mummy and sacrificing it for Dark Dust Spirit. He destroyed my reapers and trains. He used that several times and I was at 500. Thats when I knew I had to step up my game. I drew reaper and plucked that Dark Dust. And to potect my life points, I set some cards face down. He got out Vampire Lord, but I got Thestalos, overpowering the vampire. Soon came Zaborg and I sent his LP to 0. Next duel wasn't much of a challenge. I MSLV2'd his turtles and Goldd hit directly. Down goes him. The zombie structure is pretty good I have to admit, but you cannot expect to take one fresh out of the box and win the tournament with it alone.



Final Game
Me vs. Adam or something (Forget his name)
More Cookie Cutter. God! Build your own deck. I know my deck isn't 100% original, but I have my own combos and strategies at least and deck build. I got out Nimbles gaining my life points. So I brought out Phoenix. He likes to set all of his magic and trap cards. So I Heavy Stormed him a couple of times and I was at an advantage. He runs Jujitsu's so I just attack with Breaker, whereas I do not mind for him to come back at the top. Phoenix was to remain safe.



I got 3rd or 4th place. Can't remember. I got 5 dollars. I spent it on a pack of Dark Beginning 1. I pulled a Morphing Jar #2 and a Ceasefire. Double Rare pull. Nice! I also managed to get free Dark Realm cards for the side deck and H20 cards for the H20 deck I made after the tournament. I put Goldd in the side deck for the Kinetic Soldier i got.
