Duel 1 (Me vs. Justin)

Round 1: Justin’s deck is a basic beat down deck.  I
started out with a La Jinn. He sent out a Battle Ox
equip with Invigoration. He destroyed my La Jinn and I
played 7 Colored Fish and a De-spell. I destroyed his
Battle Ox, but he didn’t have any monsters. When my
turn came again I sacrificed my Fish for my Summoned
Skull with a sword of Dark Destruction. He played a
monster in defense and I drew my final La Jinn. I
played My played my La Jinn and attacked his defense
monster (Trap Master) and then his life
Points with my Summoned Skull. He played another card
in defense (don’t remember what though). I drew Yami
and played it right away. My La Jinn attacked his
defense monster. And my Summoned Skull finished the
job. 
Round 2: This round wasn’t much different, except I
had two La Jinn’s and Summoned Skull without any
equipment cards. They quickly ended the match.

Duel 2: (Me vs. Tim)

Round 1: this kid totally wasted me in the first
round. Towards the end I had a Blue Eye’s with a
Malevolent Nuzzler. I had 2100 life points and he had
3800 life points. He played brain control and ended
that round.
Round 2: This round I beat him (only by a little
though). My hand was Monster Reborn, Germ Infection,
and Lord of D., Waboku, and Man-eater Bug. I played
Lord of D. in defense and set my Waboku. Tim played a
Prevent Rat (I think) in defense. I drew a Book of
Secret Arts and equipped it to my Lord of D. and
attacked his defense monster and lost life points. He
then sacrificed his monster for a King of Yamikai and
attacked my Lord of D. My Waboku negated the attack. I
then equipped his King of Y. with Germ Infection and
played my Man-eater in defense. The match drew on
until I had my 7 Colored Fish on the Field.  He had a
trap master on the field in attack (he had activated
it and destroyed my Just Desserts) My fish attacked
and ended the duel 1900 to 0000.
Round 3: He forfeited the match, because he had to go
to watch his little brothers. (His parents decided to
go some place I think.

Duel 3 (Me vs. Joe) 

Round 1: It was a miracle this kid got this far. His
Deck was loaded with a bunch of junk with no purpose
at all! It was over in about 5 minutes. My La Jinn was
my first card equipped with dark energy. His monster
he had played in defense was toast (Don’t care what it
was). He played another monster in defense and I drew 
Malevolent Nuzzler, attached it to my La Jinn and attack 
his monster. He yet again played another monster in 
defense and I drew Change of Heart. I took control of 
his monster and sacrificed it without even looking for 
my Summoned Skull. I then attacked his life points (they 
both finished the round for me). 
Round 2: I figured out how this kid won his matches.
He had an Exodia based deck, which didn’t help him. My 
Confiscation card was all I needed to beat him. I had 
Confiscation in my hand and used it after I played a Man-eater 
in defense. I found two parts of Exodia in his hand, the torso 
and right arm. I destroyed the torso and began to waste him 
again. It didn’t take long for me to have my three Blue Eyes 
on the field (which totally demolished him. The final scores 
me 7000 (Because of Confiscation). Joe, Zip.
