M/T Total (23)

 

My strategy: Simply try to stable the field with M of Peace and dump Maries in the Graveyard, Fire Princess.  Water monsters for basic power in the deck.  Cure Mermaid to soften the price for Mask of B (I know Axes are better but I don’ t have a full time job).  Pretty general.  O to the Doom and Mask of Restrict is for Jinzo, other then that, that’s about it.

 

- Ok, so here is what happen at the tourney

 

At the tourney, there is a bunch of little kids, and they go into the junior league (I think there is a couple of them deserve to be in the senior league because they’re really good).  Then there is a Senior League where I’m playing in.  Before the tourney start, there are some practice matches going on.  One guy manage to use scapegoat, Mage Power and Unite we Stand in one turn, but he got too excited and forgot the tokens have to be in defense mode first =/.  Wow, I’m excited, my name got called and the tourney is started

 

Duel 1 Game 1

Me vs Eric (Exodia and Last Warrior from another Planet)

Looking at his deck, it seems like it was really big, so he wasn’t able to get out the big stuff.  I just pounded his LP with my Mermaids, Fishes and Jinzo.

Me ~7600 Eric 0

 

Duel 1 Game 2

I stupidly flipped Mask of Restrict on the first turn, so I wasn’t able to tribute my MoF on the field for Maire later on. And I just didn’t draw that much good stuff.  He used Painful choice and Backup Soldier to get his pieces.  After my turn he got the Forbidden Monster out.

Me~ 7000 Eric ~ 5000

 

Duel 1 Game 3

This looked like the first duel that we have, my mask powered me up and I used the Fire Princess + Cure Mermaid combo a little bit, and so I won this duel with little effort.  (Hey Eric, Slim you deck, )

 

Arrgh, I wait 30 mins just for the 2nd round…

 

Duel 2 Game 1

Me vs ??? (I forgot your name…) [Dark Beatdown]

This guy was a pro, which made me to dueled a little recklessly.  On my first turn I used offering to the doom the clear the field and power up my Fish up to 4300.  I pounded him, but that’s all I did.  He then used Raigeki I think and attacked me.  -_-“ . after that I can’t do nothing because a I can’t draw and caused me the duel (>_<)

Me 0000 Him 3700

 

Duel 2 Game 2

Same thing happen here and he got out his bigger and meaner monsters with Mystic Plasma Zone, Witch’s Apprentice, I defended a little bit, but was overwhelmed by his axes and monsters.  So I lost in a blink of an eye.

Me 0000 Him ~ 5000

 

Well, so sum it up it was a quick tourney, but I got to experience with my deck so I can further improve it.  Here is props and slops.

 

Props:

-          Me got a [Call of the haunted] there via trade in, I only paid 8 bucks

-          Awesome duel with Eric and Mr.???. 

-          Found two ways to go with my deck. 

-          Got Skull Lair in the pack I won (TP2 ran out)

-          My Bro got a Mask Beast for Destiny board

 

Slops:

-          I lost in the 2nd Round

-          Got stupid Infinite card in pack

-          Long period of waiting time, doing nothing
