[Yu-gi-oh] Tournament Report
Where: Superstars [the store], C.S.L., Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Time: 1:00pm-4:00pm*
When: [today] Saturday, March 29, 2003
Number of Participants: 5/6**
Names of the Participants: [me]/Ben, David, Lee[from the last Harry
Potter Tournament I sent to pojo], Tomas, and [I heard his name so many
times but I forgot his name!], and the host was Mathiew.
*The store asked [us] a week ago when [we] were there buying stuff and
told us that they close at 4:00 so [we] accepted. [We] were only five so
the owner of the store would play the finalist with the most points.

one pack....aaawww man...

match one: Me vs. David-
This was EASY. His deck was like five inches tall...He started. He
summons Gearfreed the Iron Knight, one card face down and uses
Malevolent Nuzzler on his knight. [NOTE: everyone including me forgot
all about Gearfreed's effect until the finals...so...] His Knight's
attack was 2200 and he ended his turn. I used MST to destroy MN and then
I play Mirror Force Face down and Man-Eater Bug in f-d def. mode.
David's turn. He summons a monster in def mode. My turn. I flip
Man-Eater Bug and destroy what was a Destroyer Golem. Then I summon a
f-d def Mask of Darkness and end my turn. On his turn he plays a card
f-d and passes. I sacrifice my Mask of Darkness and Man-Eater Bug for
Hyozanryu, and blow his points :) [Ben:8000 David:5900]. His turn. He
summons a card in def mode. I draw and play Morphing Jar #2 in f-d def
mode. I attacked and destroyed his Fire Princess [I think that's the
name of the card]. His turn. He passes. I draw...and sacrifice my
Morphing Jar #2 for Summoned Skull. [BOOM]. Ben:8000 David:1300. His
turn and he plays a monster in def-mode. My turn, and I attacked and
destroyed Mechanical Snail and then attacked his life points. HE LOST. I
now won a "point" for winning.

match two: Me vs. [the kid whose name I forgot]
I start and play morphing jar #2 in f-d def mode. His turn and he uses
Sword of Dark Destruction on Ryu-Kishin Powered and attacks. I use the
effect of M-J-2 and after the effect was completed his gave up. [He
discarded about 15 cards before he got something playable]

I now have two points and Mathiew pulls me out of dueling cuz I have 2
points and I'm in the lead. So I'm the referee for a game. Though I
didn't really care about the game but here are the things I observed:

Lee vs. Tomas. This is when I come in. Tomas uses Blind Destruction and
Lee gets confused with the effect...and well I think I sorted it out.
 Mathiew call break and cancels all games. Since time is going short, he
gives one pack of metal raiders to everyone [The rare I got was heavy
storm], and gives everyone who sat out a point:
Ben: three points
Tomas: One point
[the kid]: Zero points
Lee: One Point
David: Two points

I am now forced to duel Mathiew. His deck has 70 cards, but it seems
like the size was like 49-56 cards.

Tournament Match: Me vs. Mathiew.
He summons a La-jinn and two cards face down. My turn. I play Snatch
Steal and sacrifice his La-jinn for my Magical Marionette. I play solemn
Wishes and attack. He uses mirror force. [BOOM]. His turn and he summons
a monster in def mode. I pass. He sacrifices his monster for a card in
def mode, plays horn of light and chorus of santuary. Labyrinth Wall
hits my mind. My turn. We keep stalling each other,[I play Sorl, then He
plays Sorl] until I get up to 12 000 lp. I play Imperial order and
sacrifice my f-d monster for summoned skull. and do 4600 damage to his
life points. His turn. Passes. My turn. I blow him away.

Winner of the tournament Me 3-0
[after the tournament i played tomas a beat him so technically 4-0]
