They made a little changes to the tournament.
Last time i went there were to seperate tourneys
at different times with 16 each.This time they
had 1 tournament for the 1st 16 people on the list.
Once they were done the second half of duelers
do there 16.Then they narrow it down to 16 on a
ladder,8 on each side,and dueled untill the finals.
For the 2 seperate tourneys with 16 each the
loser gets a Metal Raiders Pack.If you made it
to the last 16 and then the loser gets a Tourney Pack.
Also the Tournament was sactioned so  no
Promo Cards,Jap. Cards,and you follow the
Restricted Rules.

In my last tourney report i said about the guy

was really good with his Exodia deck with 2
Mechanical Chasers in them......Okay to the
TOURNAMENT!!!!!!!!

Justin-Me:8000 6600

He started off with Dark Hole and Winged Dragon Guardian
of the Fortress #1 and attacked my Life Points.After that i
attacked with La jinn and i remember just getting strong
monsters out and my Summoned Skull.He used Dian
Keto the Cure Master on his 4th turn i think.After that i won.

2nd Duel
Justin(ME) vs. Max-Age 9
Justin-Me:8000

Well in this one i had to give him a real beatdown and also
a lesson on the confusing card Soul Exchange.Well confusing
to little kids.He used Soul Exchange like switching my
Summoned Skull for one of his and I had to tell him how it
worked.I had to be nice because his mom was standing
right next to him.Also in both Duels he kept on putting
a monster face-down in attack mode and that pissed me
off a lot.

Patrick: ???????
I cant rememer this one cuz it went so fast that after it I
