DEJA VU GAMES

Been a while huh? Well this would be my first deck report for about a month now, sorry about that guys, but I have been really busy not only with me starting to play Magic, but with school and such to. That past few tournaments were really no brainers, I won 2 and placed 2nd in another, *ouch* that's gonna hurt my rating (2048).

I have officially retired from using ANY Popourri style decks, about a month ago I saw a deck called InSaNiTy and started to build about 10 different decks around that theme. I really like this theme, it is sheer ---SpEeD---, the two I really like is my varient using Wigglytuff and my Varient using Promo Mewtwo. I talked to Scott Gernhart a little bit on this topic, but never got to finish and now when I visit the Pojo (First time since last month). I see Scott's new Sponge deck, almost the same as my thinking (I guess great players think alike :). Anyways I have two deck lists for you this time, both of them are still not complete however I'm having a heck of a time making them the way I want them.

This is one of my first varients of InSaNiTy, this deck really enjoys, 2nd turn kills, and even first kills...If you got your opponent with one basic, safe to say you will win...Like I said this deck is not exactly what I call high-tech yet...Still needs a little fixing, what I really like though is the abilty to crush any 70 Hp bad boy, on a good day that is. (E.R. and S.E.R. hurt the team)

That's it, I really like this deck, again nothing set it stone, dropped S.E.R., it was just to slow, good card for Potpourri not for InSaNiTy though, Lass that is card, this can completely offset a game, risky, but well worth it...Let me Explain, it knocks out your trainers and your oppoenents, sometimes it is apparent that your opponent, next turn well gain control of the game. A Prof. Oak usually tips the favour when I play against my friends, since a quick kill is usually happening games I play last a few turns. Lass helps gain control, it is even better when you use if you play all your trainers from your hand...I just love this card, it has so many uses, mainly the reason above, but filling your deck up isn't to bad every once in a while, but I wouldn't depend on it since having trainers in your hand is slim....Ya use them all up!

Quick kill is coming, I gain control fast with a massive card advantange flood, knocking Pokemon on his side at a average rate of 1.5 Pokemon/Turn is not good for him. It is soon over, I gained to much control to fast, all the right trainers for the perfect moment were always in my hand, or in a very easy way to retrieve them.

Brian Is playing my Turbo Wiggly deck, No use for him he gets Hitmonchans, and I get Mewtwos, its over in a hurry. If he would have drawn a better hand things may ahve been different, the first 2 kills was all it took and I was in complete control. He attempted to slow things down with a Jigglypuff, but my deck manipulation abilities were too much, I was able to get like all 3 Gust of Winds in my hand at one point...

Mike has been having bad turnouts for like the past 4 weeks, oh boy, same story here...I get the beats rolling early on his Electabuzz, then a Hitmonchan. He is able to match my speed for a few turns and we are tied up at 4 prizes. I decide to break this and go foward, bring my deck size to a small amount I begin to work in a hurry setting up tricks, and disrupting his game plan I pulled away getting my 4 prizes, again deck manipulation was key, for he wasn't able to draw anything worthwhile...

His deck is not all that great, as I expected a quick kill was at hand although a Likitung really got annoying and delayed me 2 whole turns, which is quite a bit for this deck...Once Likitung was out of the way, Drowzee's and Scythers were no problem.

Indeed a Psychic deck, Mewtwo is gonna be happy, which is exactly what I went for...he gets him self in a lock, by drawing one card per turn, however he kept on topdecking energy to eventually kill one my guys, he attempts to use Mr. Mime to gain control but a Gust of Wind and Energy Removal fixes him up. I take everything I can with Mewtwo, and bring in Electabuzz to take out the pesky Likitungs who never flipped heads and the Mr. Mimes.

This week was a real easy week, Unfortunatly less participants are coming to Deja Vu these days, which is a pity. Ah well, it seems like there are more Magic players then Pokemon players, which is odd when compared to other cities....well that's all I have to say, but I would suggest that anyone who hasn't played Magic, learn! It is so fun!
