First Round: I faced some little kid around 12 whos had tons of good cards but you could tell that he got them online because of their rarity and the number of them he had. I creamed him both duels by stalling with my defense monsters then using trap holes and fissures to keep his monsters off the field. Then I pulled out my Judge-Man and Summoned Skull, and took out his remaning Life Points. Second Round: I faced a kid named John, I think, who I must say is a good duelist. We both were using fissures, trap holes, and other cards keeping each other from really doing any damage. Well I lost the first duel to his Summoned Skull. Second and third rounds I won using my best combos like using Change of Heart then tributing it for Judge-Man. Third Round: I faced Alexei which I knew I was doomed to lose. Alexei is good. I mean really good. I lost the first round pretty fast after using all my Trap Holes and Fissures, but I couldn't stand up to his Summoned Skull. Second Duel it came pretty close because he wasn't getting ant monsters out. Then I attacked with The Bistro Butcher which gave him cards to use. Then I lost. Fourth Round: I got lucky and got a by which put me in the semis. I faced a kid around my age of 15. First duel went to him, but the second duel went to me with an amazing combo. I had Man-Eater Bug out so I flipped it up killed his Summoned Skull. Then I played Monster Reborn on his Summoned Skull, and sacrificed Man-Eater for Swordstalker. I had a Summoned Skull out also and made a 7000 damage attack. Thrid duel I lost because I couldn't get any monsters out. Fifth Round: I played for third and won since it was a one duel round. Nothing special happened but our decks were very good. But at the end he couldn't get any monsters out. For winning third place I got a Metal Raiders, LoB, and tourney booster. -Tim Grant shrouder_0@hotmail.com Screen Name: shrouder_0 _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx
