Me vs [can't remember his name]

I kind of felt sorry for this guy.  He didn't know much about the game, so it was an easy defeat.  He mainly used Pumpking and some other basic cards.  There isn't much to say about this round.

Me vs [can't remeber his name]

This guy had a huge deck!  He loved using Witch of the Black Forest to get out Cyber Jar.  However, I liked doing that too.  Since his deck was so large, he could never get out what he needed when he needed it.  He also had the trinity of Gate Gaurdian, but he never got any of them out.

Me:  8000, 9000, 8200, 6200

Opponent:  8000, 7900, 6100, 4600, 2100, 1600, 0

Me vs Rodger

This was great!  Rodger is one of my best friend and I constantly help him make his deck.  His deck has a lot of the same cards that mine has, but he also uses Wall Shadow, which is something that I am constantly telling him to take out.  Since I knew his deck just as well as he does, I was able to easily undermine all of his moves.

Me:  8000, 9000

Rodger:  8000, 5800, 3100, 0

Me:  8000, 9000, 8000

Rodger:  8000, 7900, 6350, 5550, 3050, 1450, 0

 

Me vs Manfred

Manfred is the one that got me into Yu-Gi-Oh! cards and is my best friend.  We duel each other every chance we get on the weekends, so we know each other's decks very well.  His is a lot like mine, but he has a lot more equip cards plus Heavy Storm and Chain Energy.  He was and always is a really tough opponent.  The most difficult thing to get past when battling him is his overwhelming equip cards and Chain Energy.  The end of the second duel was so suspenseful!  I had only The Stern Mystic in attack and Magician of faith in defense and he had only La Jinn out.  He had Chain Energy out and I had 1600 LP, while he had 4800 LP.  In one turn I used Fissure to get rid of La Jinn(-500 LP).  Then I used Monster Reborn To get La Jinn on my side(-500 LP), followed by flipping Magician of Faith to get Monster Reborn back out.  I used monster Reborn to get out another monster(-500 LP).  I had only 100 LP left, but my combined attack was high enough to take him out and win the tournament!

Me:  8000, 7300, 8300, 7300

Manfred:  8000, 7950, 3350, 4350, 3250, 2150, 0

Me:  8000, 7200, 6700, 5600, 5200, 1600, 1100, 600, 100

Manfred:  8000, 9000, 7300, 4800, 0

 

I won two 1st edition Pharaoh Servants boosters and one tournament booster.  Rodger got second place(one 1st edition Pharaoh Servants booster) only because he got more 2-0s than Manfred(who got a 2-1 during a round).  I gave Manfred my tournament booster because we made a deal earlier that if any of the two of us won, then we would give the other one of our boosters.  Unfortunately, none of us got anything good in our packs.
