Subject: Killer deck report Light-Speed Kill, Dark Kaiba, Mostly Music, Vancouver BC Sup, this is dark kaiba and this tournament was my first, I use a beatdown that won me this tournament, when I entered I was a little late and plus me and my friends were all at the age of 12 and 13 and we entered a tournament that was for 14 and up, oh well, it was a regular tournament, not duelist king tournament, and official upper-deck rules, OK, it was single elimination and a $5 entry fee and the 1st place winner gets 70 percent of the profit and 2nd got 30, so the prize was 67 bucks for winner and 27 for 2nd,, and about 20 people entered, I think. OK here’s my deck: Monsters (20) 1x Barrel dragon 3x Summoned Skull 3x La Jin The Mystical Genie of the Lamp 3x 7 Colored Fish 2x Dark Elf 3x Man Eater Bug 2x Magician Of Faith 2x Witch of the Black Forest 1x Masked Sorcerer Magic (17) 1x Raigeki 1x Monster Reborn 1x Dark Hole 1x Change of Heart 1x Pot of Greed 2x Soul Exchange 2x Fissure 1x Swords of Revealing light 1x Card Destruction 1x Tribute to the Doomed 1x Heavy Storm 2x Sword of Dark Destruction 2x Sword of Deep Seated Trap (6) 3x Trap Hole 1x Magic Jammer 1x Seven Tools of the Bandit 1x Solemn Judgment Total: 43 I have a side deck but I didn’t even use it, because the side deck is only there in case I’m facing an Exodia deck, and I didn’t, so I won’t bother typing it up. First Round I got a Bye and I watched my friend duel this 25 year-old who had every card except left leg and right arm, and I got scared, because that guy was good, and then it was second round, and guess what, I’m facing the 25 year-old, just my luck, (and my luck goes on like this, all I face are guys that are over 20 in the tournament, O well), so we started and I got a good hand, barrel dragon, soul exchange, La Jinn, man Eater bug, and summoned skull, here are the scores, Richard: 8000-6200-3900-0 Me: 8000-7000 I thought this would be harder but, it wasn’t, I first drew and got a 7 colored fish, set the MEB, and ended, he attacked my bug and ended, then I drew 7-tools and set it, then I summoned 7 fish and attacked for 1800, his turn, he sets a monster and sets a magic/trap, and ends, my turn, I draw sword of deep seated and I summoned La Jinn and I attached deep seated on him, I attack with fishy his set mon, and it was wotbf, then I attacked with Jinn for 2300, and I end, his turn, he sets a mon, my turn, I draw Change of Heart and use it, offer his wall of illusions and my 7 fish for barrel dragon and attacked with both, he activates mirror force, I activate 7-tools, I win! Second duel: Richard: 8000-5700-3400-1300-0 Me: 8000-7400-5600-2800 In this duel I first came up with a La Jinn with deep seated and a solemn judgment, and in the second turn I had Barrel Dragon and Summoned Skull out through tttd and monster reborn so it pretty much went downhill from there, and I solemn judgmented a SoRL. Roud 2 Me-vs-Tyler Tyler: 8000-5750-150-0 Me: 8000-4000-2000-1800 OK, this guy was 17 and when I was paired up with him every body thought I would get my @$$ wiped, but they were wrong, my first hand was solemn judgment, man-eater bug, La Jinn, mirror force, tttd, and magician of faith as drawing card, so I went first and set my meb and solemn judgment and mirror force, and ended, he goes and plays a set monster and a magic/trap, my turn, I play La Jinn and I flip my MeB, then he tells me that when I flip it I have to put the mon in attack mode, and I didn’t know this, he showed me it in the rule book and I said OK, so I killed his MeB, and attacked directly, he used mirror foce and solemn judgmented, from there it just went downhill and I reborned my solemn judgment to use on his sorl, and my Jinn attacked a mystical elf. Second Duel: Tyler: 8000-6200-3600-0 Me: 8000-7000-3500-2500 This one was quick as hell, and I don’t believe this guy won the last tournament, I started off with La Jinn in attack mode and solemn judgment and 7 tools, his turn he just played 3 Magic/trap, my turn I attack with La Jinn, and he brings up waboku, and I use 7-tools, so then I end my turn, now he goes and sets some mon and ends, my turn I get change of heart and use it on his mon, Meb, so I sac his MeB and my Jinn to bring in barrel Dragon and I attack, he then flips up Mirror force, and I solemn judgment it and I end my turn, he then plays a set Mon and ends, my turn I draw dark elf and play her, I use Barrel dragon’s effect and kill his MeB, and I attack and Win! Semi Finals: Me-vs-cool kid This guy just sucked, I can’y believe he made it to the semi’s, but he was cool, he told me that if he won, he’d buy a Mirror Force and give the rest to me, O well, I didn’t record this one but I kicked his ass, and I won both with Summoned Skull. Finals: Me-vs-Frank Now this guy got pissed of so easily, and everyone thought he’d win, though he did wipe the floor with me in the second duel by using SoRL 4 times, he got creamed the other two time by my trusty Barrel dragon and summoned skull (2 of them in the second round) I also had some help from solemn judgment, and I hate this guy, well I don’t hate him, but when people came to watch and when the said to me and him things like “man your so good” he got pissed really easily, and he was a sore loser, well I didn’t keep score for this one so I don’t have the scores, all I know is that this guy was tough.
