This is my first tourney report, as

it was a long ride, but we eventually made it... an an hour and a half too
soon... =D

Ok, the tourney started with 5
pools. The 8 winners go to the quarter finals, the 4 winners of that go to the
semi-finals and then it's on to the finals. (quarter-, semi-finals are single
elimination).
Duel 1:
Manianchotic VS Defense Deck
match one:
Peace of cake, this guy used only
2000 DEF monsters and as far as I know, no ATK monsters. I Destroyed his hand
witch confiscation and delinquent, kept sweaping his monsters away with raigeki
(got it back twice with MoF) and some man-eaters. when his field was empty I
finished it with 2 La Jinn's and a Skull I had on the field. so, I won with no
LP damage (got my 2000LP back, because he attack 2 momongas with wall of
illusion and giant soldier of stone).
match two:
Well, pretty much the same as match
1. This guy really sucked...
Duel 2:
Manianchotic vs some guy
match one:
this guy had a really strange deck,
it was a combination of a blue-eyes beatdown and a gate guardian deck. Well, I
kept him from summoning with trap holes and man-eaters. In the middle of the
match I drew card destruction. I first set a MoF and monster reborn and used
card destruction, he discarded a blue-eyes and a suijin. I drew a summoned
skull. I reborned his blue-eyes, took it back with MoF, reborned his suijin and
sacrificed my used MoF for skull and attacked for the win.
Match two:
This was pretty much of a blur, but
I drew no monsters for a while and that almost cost me the game. But I got
3000LP back with my nimbles and from there I got the upper hand.
Duel 3:
Manianchotic vs n00b
match one:
this guy was a bitch, he was easy to
beat but he kept disagreeing on some card rules and called the judge about 5
times.
And guess what, the judge doesn't
know the game well either :s
they both agreed that you can chain
MST against raigeki or other magic cards. So, I couldn't use my raigeki cause
he chained with MST (real bitchy). But I won anywayz.
match two:
pretty much same as first duel, big
peace of cake.
Me and a friend of me who had some
problems with the card rulings too went to the judge and showed him the card
rulings list on pojo. And we were right, he apoligized and we just went on.
The pools where played and now it's
on to the quarter-finals. Those are single elimination, so if you loose, you're
out. My friends also made it to the quarter-finals.
The judge came and announced the
pairs, it was me versus a friend, bummer.
Duel 4 -- quarter finals:
Manianchotic vs Direct Damage Deck
I'm not gonna try and describe the
match, cause it's all a blur. I don't remember how it went anymore, but I do
remember I won 2 times in a row so my friend is out and I'm on to the
semi-finals.
Before the pairs of the semi-finals
where announced my other friend told me he lost to an incredibl strong duelist
using a relinquished deck. So, I'm the only one who's left of us 3.
The pairs where announced and... I
had to duel the relinquished guy, damn.
Duel 5 -- semi-finals:
Manianchotic vs relinquished deck
match 1:
This deck is surprisingly good. Most
of his cards came from SDP, but since the manager allowed cards that where in
the european series he could use them. Now that's bitchy, I did all that
trouble to get european cards before the tourney and it appears we can use SDP
cards too, but it was already too late to change my deck so bummer for me. This
guy seemed to draw all the good cardq at the right time, he counterd every card
I had and absorbed my monsters with relinquished. And when I finnaly got htat
dumb relinquished, guess what, monster reborn. AAAARRRGGGHHH.
match 2:
I think this guy cheated wih
shuffling, cause he seemed to draw the exact same card as last match, so again,
this match ended in a loss for me.
---------------------------------------------------
Then I still had to duel against
another guy for 3th place.
Duel 6:
Manianchotic vs exodia deck
match 1:
I knew this was gonna be a piece of
cake from the beginning. I saw this guy duel before the tourney begun and I
cannot believe he made it this far with that crummy deck. C'mon, he has an
exodia deck with about 60 cards!!!!
So, I tottaly creamed him, I already
got a exodia piece to the graveyard on my first turn with confiscation and
since backup soldier isn't released in europe yet it would be very unlikely if
he could get him back. So, it went downhill from there. He kept making a
defence line with 3 or 4 DEF monsters but I broke through it 2 times with
raigeki (took him back with MoF). I finished him with my nimbles :P
match 2:
On my 3th turn I got a piece of
exodia of him on the field with cyber jar. I got two 7 colored and a la jinn.
He had nothing to block my attacks so after a few turns I got him.
---------------------------------------------------
So I got third, as prize I got 2
packs (only two :'( ), 1 LOB and 1 MRL
and got crap. An aqua madoor and a karate man.
Props:
For my friends mom bringing us.
For getting 3th.
For finnaly getting a pot of greed
so I can build an exodia deck.
Slops:
For getting crap in my packs.
For my friend getting a thousand
dragon.
For having to play against a friend
in the quarter-finals.
