There were 18 people in the tournament. It was a $3 entry fee. My friends and I found out when we got there that Pharaohs Servant was not allowed. So I quickly had to rebuild my deck with the extra cards I had on me.

Round 1

My hardest match by far. He used a beatdown that usually beats mine, but without PSV it was missing some vital cards.

Mike versus Me

Match 1

I won

4000-0

I beat Mike by using change of heart 3 times. He didn’t have a good deck because he was using a whole lot of Pharaohs Servant and didn’t have any replacements.

Match 2

I lost

0-5550

Got a bad draw and he beat me with Summoned Skull.

Match 3

I won

2000-0

Got Raigeki my first hand and took over from there.

Round 2

He used a poly deck with b. skull dragon, other than that some random cards

Me vs. Some kid

Match 1

I won

7000-0

I Magic Jammed Poly and used 7 Tools on Mirror force. Won easily after that.

Match 2

I won

6000-0

Used Invader of the Throne on Summoned Skull and took him out.

Round 3

He was using an earth beatdown/removal

Me vs. Dennis

Match 1

2500-0

He was using a lot of new cards and caught me off guard. I came back with a rageki and a fish with a malevolent nuzzler.

Match 2

7000-0

I took advantage of his lack of counters and won fairly easily using a maha vailo with a malevolent nuzzler.

Round 4

This kid used a poly deck with giant germs. Didn’t see much other structure.

Me vs. Some kid

Match 1

0-5750

He got Rageki, Poly, two thunder dragons and a la gin in his fist hand…enough said, I got raped

Match 2

6500-0

I took his twin-headed thunder dragon with invader of the throne and beat him down. Only damage I took was from giant germs

Match 3

5000-0

I took 3000 dmg at the start and then took over with a double change of heart. Did him 5250 dmg in one turn with a Summoned skull and a Maha vailo with a malevolent nuzzler. He killed my SS and then I got a second Malevolent Nuzzler on Maha and won easily
