Thats my deck. Yeah...I do need to get a Goblin Attack Force, another Summoned Skull, another La Jinn, and maybe a SoRL.
 
Round 1- Michael vs. Ryan
Alright, this kid looked easy. He was young, and didn't know much about the cards. He didn't understand flip-effects, but I let him go. He put down Gravity Bind, and since I had a Beatdown, I thought I was toast. Surely enough, it was my Man-Eater Bug that I equipped with an Axe of Despair to win. In the next match, he was easy. I used Dust Tornado on his Gravity Bind, and he used Cyber Jar. Nothing much in my hand. He put down another Cyber Jar, and I told him that was only allowed one in a deck. I didnt care though. I beat him with my Blue-Eyes.
Round 2-Michael vs. Some Teen
I barely remember how this match went. I do remember I beat him with my La Jinn equipped with an Axe, and stopped his Mirror Force with a Solemn Judgement. In duel 2, I won with my Gearfried, because he forgot about Gearfried's effect. He tried to Snatch Steal, but he forgot, so it went to the graveyard. He was open dirrectly.
Round 3-Michael vs. Some good 5th Grader
Aah. Now this was a good match! In duel 1, he beat me in three turns. I didnt even do any damage to him. Annoying Jinzo... In duel 2, things went my way. I used Dust Tornado on his SoRL. He had a Witch of the B. Forest, and I attacked. He got Jinzo. He got it out, and destroyed it with my Darkfire Soldier with an Axe. I reborned it, and it was pretty easy after then. This duel was close! He tried to get out a Jinzo, but I used Solemn Judgment. I was down to 4000. I used Tremendous Fire, and he had Summoned Skull out. I Dark Holed it, and used Bistro Butcher to win.
Moment of Glory-
While I was waiting for my next match, I watched people trying to get Jinzo from PSV packs. I went over and watched. People were betting over if anyone would get one. I bought a pack, opened it and got a Jinzo!!! I was extremely happy, but I couldn't add it just yet. I was still in the tourney. But this happiness was short-lived...
Quater Finals- Michael vs. 12 year old
Aah..I can't remember much except that I won. It was fun though, becuase I got to use my Fairy Meteor Crush on his Magician of Faith to win the first time. I don't remember the rest...
Semi-Finals- Michael vs. Old Friend...
Okay, he wasn't an old friend, but I had faced him before with my water deck. I started with La Jinn and he Goblin Attack Force. I used Fissure, and summoned La Jinn and put down a m/t. He put down a La Jinn, and attacked, I used Enchanted Javilen. I finished him off with a Summoned Skull. Next I lost, because of a Solemn Judgment. I used Heavy Storm on his face-down card (Mirror Force), and then he used Spellbinding Circle, which I used Solemn Judgement, and so did he. He got me down with an evil Jinzo... Next duel was fun. He played Goblin Attack Force, and I used Change of Heart. I got out Blue-Eyes, but he used Goblin and Axe. I counter with Summoned Skull and Axe and a Fairy Meteor Crush. Ouch...
Finals- Michael vs. Stephen
Alright, I did pitiful in this match. He used Goblin, Dark Elf, Snatch Steal, Heavy Storm, and more to finish me off in 4 turns. Next, I did a little better. I got out my Dark Elf, but stupid Snatch Steal and Goblin. I lost.
Loss of Jinzo
We were backing out from the store, when I noticed my pack was gone. I ran back in, and looked everywhere. It was gone.
