Return from the Different Dimension
As you can see, I was able to get some new cards last week,
and it really helped out my deck. The tourney started as
usual, get there early, get food, register, shuffle up,
trade with little kids, shuffle some more, Round 1. That’s
how it usually goes. But, with the exception that I was able
to trade a X Head Cannon for a second Don Zaloog and an
ultimate rare Transcendent Wings and UFOroid for an ultimate
Mid Shield Gardna, Des Wombat, and a Horus LV 6. Today’s
tournament was a 5 round Swiss and a top 8. Anyway, first
round came up.
Round 1 Me v. Claudio
First round I played the kid who traded me Horus. His deck
was like a foot high. He basically drew nothing. Blade
Knight, LV2 and DDA murdered him.
Me: 8000
Claudio: 8000-6400-3900-0
Second game I decided to side in the Chaos Sorcerer that I
put in my side deck, but I never got a chance to use it. The
kid used some of the ‘Roid monsters, like Patroid and
Steamroid, that were able to gnaw at my LP, but I had Don
and Spirit Reaper out the entire game, as well as Blade
Knight that beat him.
Me: 8000-6400-5600-4700-2700
Claudio: 8000-6600-5200-3600-1800-0
I felt bad for Claudio, so I helped him out, telling him
take out a bunch of cards to slim down his deck. I think at
the end of the day, it had 60 cards in it. Nice decrease
from 1,000,000. Anyway, the second round came up pretty
quickly, so I wasn’t able to do much between rounds.
Round 2 Me (1-0) v. Maura (1-0)
This woman was crazy. Straight up crazy. She was playing
some type of burn stall with Jerry Beans Man. Anyway, first
game, she gets a Level Limit Area B out and I have no m/t
destruction. She throws down Inaba White Rabbit for 4 turns,
and at some point, I take 1000 from a Marron. She gets a
Jerry Beans Man out, and I Snatch it. I hit her a few times
with that but then she Mirror Walls it. Now for the rest of
the game, I was trying to subtract in 25s. That sucks for LP
counting. Anyway, I lose the Beans Man, but I pull out a
Blade Knight for 2000, and game.
Me: 8000-7300-6600-5600-4900-4400-3600
Maura: 8000-5550-6550-7550-6325-7325-4875-5875-4125-1575-0
After that long game, we had like 5 minutes left in the
round. The second game ended up being extremely short
anyway. I sided in a bunch of m/t destruction stuff, which
helped a lot. I hit her with a Sangan, a Don, and a Mobius,
then finishing with a Don. There wasn’t really anything much
in this game. I was able to draw a Nobleman of Extermination
and a Dust Tornado AND a Heavy Storm within 5 turns, so her
stall never took hold.
Me:8000-7500-6800-6300
Maura: 8000-7000-5600-2200-800-0
As soon as I got up from the last round, I sat back down
again, for the third.
Round 3 Me (2-0) v. Lamont (2-0)
I remember Lamont from the last tourney. He was one of the
guys with Chris and Adam, and he was really good. This time,
I had nothing at all the entire game. He beat on me with a
Dekoichi and a Breaker, and a DD Survivor finished me.
Me: 8000-5800-5400-2000-600-0
Lamont: 8000-7500
Second game, it was neck and neck the entire game. I had
more lifepoints, but he just kept hitting me with
destruction. I remember using a Tsukuyomi and Creature Swap
combo to take his Mobius, then summoning my own Mobius and
destroying his face downs. That helped because the next
turn, I used Sangan and attacked for 3400. Another attack
from Sangan and a Breaker and that was game.
Me: 8000-7800-7200-6200-5400-4000-3200
Third game, it was, yet again neck and neck. I didn’t keep
notes because we didn’t have much time in the round, but I
remember him starting off by hitting me for 4500. I came
back and whittled away at his lifepoints until I drew a
Jinzo and then there was a stall. We were both top decking
and everything he got, I was able to remove, but I still
wasn’t able to hit him. It was 1200 to 1200 and he had Dark
Holed my Jinzo. There was three turns where nothing
happened, and he had 4 goats out. I played a Cyber Dragon
and he used Torrential Tribute. Bad mistake. I activated
Call of the Haunted after that, bringing back Jinzo, and
attacking for game. Awesome game. Took a lot out of me too.
Me: 8000-3500-2700-1200
Lamont: 8000-7500-7200-6900-4800-3000-1200-0
For all intents and purposes, I think Lamont would’ve won
that game. If he hadn’t used Torrential Tribute, he would’ve
gotten another turn, and he would’ve topdecked a
Reinforcement. I might have been able to stop something, but
a DDA would’ve stalled for too long. Anyway, I was 3-0 and
feeling pretty good. I walked around a little while,
watching some of the other games. Then, round 4 came up.
Round 4 Me (3-0) v. Mathew (3-0)
This guy played a Strike Ninja Dark deck. And, first game,
he brought out the Ninja, and from there on, I had nothing.
He actually ended the game with 8200 LP from my Snatch
Steal.
Me: 8000-7500-6400-5000-4200-2800-1800-1000-0
Mathew: 8000-7200-8200
Next game, I drew a bit better. He must have drew nothing
because I was able to hit him for a lot twice. Don tore him
up this game, as well as Breaker. Not much else to say this
game.
Me:8000-3900-4900
8000-4700-1600-0
Last game, yet again… I draw crap. He does a little for a
while, then pushes for 4100. I’m at 500 and I draw…
Bottomless Trap Hole. That was game right there.
Me: 8000-6800-6000-4600-500-0
Mathew: 8000-7700-6900
Well, that game went pretty badly, but I still had a chance
to top 8, which made me happy. Although I knew I had a
chance to play someone really good during the next round and
just totally blow it. Round 5 goes up and…
Round 5 Me (3-1) v. Max (3-1)
Max played one of the most interesting decks all day. I
don’t think it really had a central theme though. He used
Winged Kuriboh, Dark Magician of Chaos, Monster
Reincarnation, and Mage Power. One turn he played a face-up
attack MoF and a Mage Power, increasing it’s attack by 1500.
He tries to suicide into a DD Survivor, but I Dust Tornado
the Mage Power. After that, it was a straight crush. I
didn’t even take damage. Still, he twice got that MoF back
in defense mode with a Monster Reincarnation, but it didn’t
make much difference.
Me: 8000
Max: 8000-6500-3200-0
Second game, much like the first, wasn’t that challenging.
He had a few destructions, but I Snatch Stealed his Goblin
Elite Attack Force and swung for 6000 damage first turn.
Next turn wasn’t much different, although he gained 1000
life, I hit him for 2100 with a Cyber Dragon, then a DD
Assailant.
Me: 8000-7200 (Premature)
Max: 8000-2000-3000-900-0
Well, I top 8’d along with Lamont, Max, and Mathew. There
wasn’t much to do between rounds, so I sat down and waited
until the round started.
Round 6 (Top 8) Me (4-1) v. ?? (3-2)
I’m sorry, I don’t remember this guy’s name. I feel bad
about it too because he said he had read my last Tourney
report, which he was a part of too. Oh well, anyway, first
game I get nothing, he crushes me. I got 2500 damage off
with a Spirit Reaper and a Mobius I think.
Me: 8000-7200-3300-1000-0
??: 8000-5800-5500
I didn’t side deck this game because I forgot to side out
the cards I had sided in from the 4th round. Anyway, I got a
bit luckier, Exterminating all of the Sakuretsus, and
Crossout…ing all his Dekoichis. I hit him a few times, he
hit me a little, and I win.
Me: 8000-7200-6300
??: 8000-7700-6800-5400-3000-0
Third game, I got nothing… Again. I hit him for 1500 once,
then he crushed me. I remember drawing Mobius, Jinzo, and
Mobius… All in a row. No 4-stars or below… I was done. The
game was good though.
Me: 8000-7000-5900-4800-3800-1400-0
Well, that was it for me. I think my tiebreakers put me in
5th, although I don’t think that really matters. Nice for
the UDE points though. I got my 4 packs (2 EEN, 2 TP6) and
got another Airknight, a Bronn and a super rare V-Z. It was
alright. After the game, I traded 2 rare Bazoo that I didn’t
need and could buy for a dollar a piece and a Kuriboh (the
regular kind) for a super rare Thestalos, a Stealth Bird
(burn deck) and a Pot of Avarice. I really like the Pot,
although it is a dead draw. Not a bad bluff though. I was
able to use it twice and have it Dust Tornadoed and Heavy
Stormed 3 times instead of a Sakuretsu or Torrential. Nice
little tournament overall. I didn’t stay to find out who won
though.
Props:
2 Dons!
V-Z is actually playable, as I’ve experienced against Chris
last time
Another Pot of Avarice
Horus LV 6
Great games
Top 8!! (My first official Top 8 ever)
Slops:
Mystic Swordsman LV 4 for it not working this week. I’m
gonna replace it with that Don.
Mobius, Jinzo, Mobius… the worst topdecks ever
I forgot that guy’s name (If you read this, e-mail me so I
can remember for next time)
I think next time I’m going to run the burn deck that I’ve
been working on. Ojama Trio for the win!
Email me with deck ideas, suggestions for my deck, tips,
anything. I will reply.
