My opponents were all new and had just started this week. Our store is very popular and there has to be seperate brackets, alot of them. My fourth match was the finals for my bracket. I had to play it against a regular player, and a friend. His name was blane, he had me very nervous. We had played before the tournament many times, trading off wins. He drew none of the cards he needed, i ended up finishing him witha summoned skull. Now because there were 5 brackets, i got a bye and went straight into the finals which was to my benefit because i got to see my opponents deck. I ended up playing a familiar player, but with a new deck, and exodia deck. He had already won 3 times with exoida and he had me scared. I started off with a nifty forceful sentry and sent a piece of exoida back into his deck, to try and get rid of a few pieces of exodia, i tried playing a cyber jar. This back fired on me and he got to special summon sangan and witch of the black forest. Knowing there was no time to hold back I attacked with the monsters i had summoned, 2 Lajinns and a 7 colored fish, i hit his life points taking him to 1800. Next turn i drew a man eater bug and placed it on the field, i used my 7 colored fish to destroy his defensive monster which was giant soldier of stone, fortunately i had equiped my fish with a m. nuzzler. He was chipping away at my life points with direct damage cards. The deck had everyone thinking hard, he went to use a fissure but flipped his trap hole up, and that ruined my plan of finishing him with my favorite card Barrell Dragon. In a last ditch effort, I attacked with a La Jinn, he mirror forced me, but it was ok because i had a trap master on the field. My turn i played Giant Trunade, and summoned a man eater into attack mode then flipped the trap master and finishing his 800 life points!
