I've never had 1 to start with, I've used 2 Morphing Jar #2 though, so all those of you that continue to e-mail me about the cyber jar ruling, that's been thouroughly drilled into my head but I haven't got a single cyber jar, so please stop telling me I can only have one of them.

Boy did I turn you into a liar) 1 Shadow of Eyes (No surprises for you) 1 Regulation of Tribe (I get at least one turn free from you hurting me, and that might be the difference) Pre-Tournament Notes: This deck is basically Resistance Is Futile, just with some much more powerfull monsters and a few less of the effect monsters. This here looks like it could squish all opponents. There's only one way to find out, and that's to duel in the tournament. With Goku on my side and the intensity of power I've pumped into this deck, I know I can win. For all those who wonder what this "Pre- Tournament Notes" section is for I will tell you. I make all my reviews the Monday after each Saturdays Tounaments. In this way I don't have to worry much about rushing to finish my reviews, and all of you can have a veiw as to how I felt before I went to the next tournament. Onto the fun, death and destruction! Tournamnet Data: Match One: Snipe Or Be Sniped vs. Purple Dragon Lady Duel One: Winner: Opp Life Points of Me: 0 Life Points of Opp: ~ Duel Breakdown: Me being me I forgot the life sheet. I had her on the run for a majority of the duel. Then that damned Lord of D. managed to stay on the field in time for her to play her flute. After that it was down-hill for me. I used my monster reborn way too early, instead of saving it, like I should have. Duel Two: Winner: Opp Life Points of Me: 0 Life Points of Opp: ~ Duel Breakdown: This duel sucked royally for me. None of my strategy cards came up. Without the ability to use any of my best cards, which had all been shuffled to the bottom, I was easy prey for her dragons. Promo Match, Ryan Crosby, Match 5 (Semi Finals) Duel One: Winner: Ryan Life Points of Ryan: ~ Life Points of Opp: 0 Duel Breakdown: Ryan ran, for the last time, his "Weenie Rush" deck, for this tournament. Again sorry about not having the life sheet. This duel was fairly quick and easy for Ryan to win. His Gravity Bind and super powered Rainbow Flowers were the key in this duel. I could tell by the look in his opponents eyes that he didn't like 2 Milus, Gaia Power, and a Rainbow Flower, all poised to whack his life, which happened, and Ryan won. Duel Two: Winner: Opp Life Points of Ryan: 0 Life Points of Opp: ~ Duel Breakdown: I don't know anything that happened in this duel, I went for a little walk because I wanted to duel but most of the people that were there at the start didn't leave. When I got back they had started Duel 3. Duel Three: Winner: Ryan Life Points of Ryan: ~ Life Points of Opp: 0 Duel Breakdown: This duel lasted eternally long. Ryan had Gravity Bind on the field and his opponent had Infinate Dismissal. This one came down to the wire, I thought it was going to wind up in draw out for one of them. Ryan prevailed though, he attacked with a Rainbow Flower that died, and then got the duel ender, another Rainbow Flower. It was a great duel. Promo Match, Ryan Crosby, Match 6 (Finals) Duel One: Winner: Opp Life Points of Ryan: 0 Life Points of Opp: ~ Duel Breakdown: Ryan had to duel Purple Dragon Lady, that's right, the woman that I lost to in the first round. Ryan had her running for a long time, and it looked like he could have won, but Heavy Storm and a summoning flute later, and it was all over for Ryan. Duel Two: Winner: Opp Life Points of Ryan: 0 Life Points of Opp: ~ Duel Breakdown: Ryan had no chance in this duel. She got her Lord and a flute, plus Heavy Storm.... Simply put Ryan was squished. After Thoughts: Over 20 Tournaments of never getting elimmed in the 1st round, my streak, was over. I wound up being ranked 4th in my store for the end of the season. With the pain of my 1st round defeat, it was nice to see an ally make it to the finals, though he did wind up losing against the same person I lost to. The next tournament is going to be mine to take, for I will exact my revenge. Zup to: Purple Dragon Lady: I always congradulate those who defeat me. Ryan: 2nd place man, 2nd place! Uhhhh, no to: Me: Why the first round? Why the first round? Purple Dragon Lady: Of all rounds the first! The Alliance: Save for Ryan we sucked this week. Who ever stole CJ's cards: If I find you you're gonna die. Anyone else who steals cards: Don't even think of touching my cards, or you will die. Tournament Pack Season 2: These packs SUCK!
