continuos trap
Effect: You gain 500 Life Points when you draw a card (or cards.)

Round 1 Me vs some newbie (Tyler)

He starts out sacrificing  cards from his hand. Oh boy! This is going to be a long match. Any way. We trade blows for a little (I don't care I get 500 life points every turn with Solemn Wishes). Finally, I got Sonic Bird. I summoned it and got Black Illusion Ritual. Play it and play relinquished, suck up... Man-Eater bug. Whew, glad I got the right one. It was down hill for him
Me 9,500
Him 0

Duel 2
Same as the first Match, Accept He gets Tri-horned Dragon. I ve got a 1700 out equipped with Horn Of the unicorn. Summoned Skull in my hand. Hmmm
How can I make this work? It was risky. I sacked my monster for Summoned Skull... In face Down Defense position?! Horn of the unicorn goes back to the Top of your deck when its in your Graveyard. So if he doesn't attack It all over. His move. I get worried his going to attack, so I put my hand on a trap card. Robbin gobblin, (Not Helpful). And he ...............doesn't Attack!
Boo Yea! You should of seen the look on his face when I flipped Robbin Gobblin And SS. I attached Horn of the unicorn and blasted his Tri-horned Dragon. His move is the stupidest move in Duel Monsters history. He Summoned Lord of D. And flute of Summoning Dragon. 2 blue Eyes.
(Tyler) Ahh....... "what's Summoned Skull attack," (me) "3200" (Tyler) Oh.
My move. I attack Lord of D. And win.
Me 2,400 he plays 3 Ookazes, 3sparks and 2 Tremendous fires early on
Him 0 (Ha! Ha!

I learned I was playing the best guy in the store. I felt like just saving every body some time by just leaving, Then I thought, I can take this guy, I just need a good hand, Guess what, I didn't get one.

Me vs John (Store champion)
I got weak cards. I'll only tell you the first move since he beat me in 5 turns. Summon Dark fire Soldier #2 Sword of Deep Seated. MST face down
and what does he do. Heavy Storm. La Ginn. No counters I died.
Him 8000
Me 0

Me vs John (Store champion)           
Almost same exact thing, bad hand he eventually plays Rajkei And SS.
Bye. Bye
Him 8,ooo(Mr. Untouchable
me 0 (I'll get back at you!)

Props:
