Blazing Water-Tourny Of 5 Civs- By Brandon Schmidt

 

Blazing Water

Brandon Schmidt

Duluth, GA

 

 Ok, this is my first tournament. I knew that I was good, but it was time to see how good. I ended up showing up late, but I still go to play my 1st Round. I was in the 14 and under division.

 

 DECK: 42 cards

 

Water:

 

Aqua Guard x4

Aqua Hulcas x4

Brain Serum x4

Hunter Fish x3

Corile x4

Crystal Lancer x1

 

Fire:

 

x4 Mini Titan Gett

x4 Immortal Baron Vorg

x4 Crimson Hammer

x4 Tornado Flame

x3 Rothus The Traveler

x1 Twin Cannon Skyterror

x1 Rikabu The Dismantler

x1 Armored Blaster Valdios

 

Deck Strategy: Rush early, and play blockers to protect my creatures.

 

ROUND 1:

Duel 1: Brandon . vs. Justin(not Florio)

         This round sucked for me. This kid was like 6-7 and ran a GOOD black/blue deck. I rushed him early but hit 2 Gregorian Worms which sealed my fate. I broke all of his shields but it didnt matter. I remember my Twin Cannon in there though.

     0-1

Duel 2:

        Exact same as last duel. I rushed him but I triiggered Terror Pits and Aqua Jolters. An overall bad duel. Embarressing 1st round loss

    0-2

 

ROUND 2:

Duel 1: Brandon vs Cameron

           This guy used a random deck with cards like Reso Pacos, and few blockers. He was about 5-6 so...I won 5 shields to none. I love my promo Corile!

    1-2

Duel 2: He got destroyed. I Rothus/Crimsoned everything he had. I rushed for the big 2-0 victory

   2-2

 

ROUND 3:

 Duel 1: Brandon vs John

            This guy used a mixed deck. I took over quickly with hand and field advantage and trashed everything he had. He lost 4 shields to none.

Duel 2:   I swear this is gonna get old. I kept hand advantage and field while I destroyed him.

I rushed with Valdios and Rikabu and won 5 shields to none. I had to keep winning, semi-finals were on the line.

  4-2

 

ROUND 4: Brandon vs. Brandon O.

 Duel 1: This duel gave me a headache. I didn't get a Crystal Paladin till after I turned in my decklist. This guy used Dark/Water, but not very well. I knew my deck was weak against blockers, so I only had one way to win. Destroy. I trashed all blockers and slayers. I broke all of his shields very quickly.

 Duel 2: I was sweating by this one. I kept up my strategy and won quickly, 2-0

  6-2

 

ROUND 5: A lot of people were 6-2 so we had another round. Can't remember his name

 Duel 1: I was really woried about this one. This guy ran mono water with LOTS of bounce.

 I played well and trashed his blockers and "whacked" his Aqua Hulcas. I squeezed out a win.

 Duel 2: Crap. He got loads of blockers and Lancer. I managed to brake all of his shields, but triggered a Aqua Surfer.

 Duel 3: It went like Duel 1, I got a good hand. I got 4 blockers, but he got Lancer. I used Rothus and we swapped blows for a few turns until I rushed and won.

  8-3

 

They announced the semi finalists. It was me, Tyler Smallwood, Justin Florio, and some kid I didn't know. Me and Justin met online and hoped to play each other. I also got to met my idol Lee Sandow. I can't wait to read his report.

 

Brandon vs. Tyler Smallwood

 Duel 1: This was ugly. He made my stategy seem like a joke. Fighter Dual Fang, Chaos Worm, and Barkwhip came out early and destroyed me.

 Duel 2: I tried to stall but just didn't have the heart. I broke all but 2 shields but Fighter Dual Fang came in to mess things up.

 

 I placed 3rd and got 6 packs of Survivors. Now on to props and slops.

 

PROPS:

Getting a 2 promo Coriles(so awesome)

Making 3rd

SLOPS:
