First off, The Paperback Bazaar is a wicked cool store that has a Saturday fun tournament and a Sunday official tournament. This was a Sunday Tournament. ========== Round 1: Me (Nate S./Masked Beast Destruction) vs. Nathan (Totally Random Deck) Duel 1: This kids deck was HUGE!!!!! He kept on trying to Michizure me when I summoned monsters...and I don't think he knew how to play really well...he only did a little damage and I recovered with a Mononga...so I slowly attacked with a Sangan and a 2 Monongas until I was able to attack once with The Masked Beast and finish him off. (8,700/0) Duel 2: I never took any damage....in fact...I pulled The Masked Beast combo early and killed him quick. (8,000/0) =========== =========== Round 2: Me (Nate S./Masked Beast Desruction) vs. Brandon ? (Exodia Deck) Duel 1: I attacked once with La Jinn and he quickly recovered and called Exodia...he won first duel. (8,000/6,200) Duel 2: I pulled The Masked Beast quickly and attacked once. I then powered him up with United We Stand and I had 2 other monsters on the field, so I annihilated him fast. (8,000/0) Duel 3: I -once again- pulled The Masked Beast early and attacked, but I hit once of his Monongas. He started to regain life until I used Raigeki on him and then attacked with The Masked Beast and La Jinn to win the 3rd duel. (8,000/0) =========== =========== INBETWEEN ROUNDS: Inbetween the 2nd and 3rd round, I learned that I would be playing against my good friend Aaron B. I asked him if he wanted to play a practice round and he agreed. The practice round went as followed: Practice: Me (Nate S./Masked Beast Desruction) vs. Aaron B. (Good friend/Hayabusa Deck) Duel 1: Aaron's deck is really well put together. He relies on his Hayabusa Knights and Maha Vailos to provide his attack power. He started by playing Hayabusa Knights and powering them up with Axe of Despairs. He then proceeded to attack me and totally demolish my life points. I was only able to get one attack in from my Kycoo. (0/6,200) Duel 2: This duel started off the same way, but it quickly turned around when I got The Masked Beast on the field. He attacked me once and then i totally demolished HIM. (6,300/0) Duel 3: This was really close. I eventually De-Spelled his Hayabusa Knight's Axe of Despair and called forth my Masked Beast. I then Monster Reborned another Masked Beast and it was all over. (4,400/0) =========== =========== Round 3: Me (Nate S./Masked Beast Desruction) vs. Aaron B. (Good friend/Hayabusa Deck) Duel 1: He started off really well with 9050 life points. I then Placed 2 Masked Beasts on the field and the a La Jinn and a Harpie's Brother. I then proceeded to equip one of my Masked Beasts with United We Stand and powered him up to 6400. I then let loose with all my monsters and annihilated him. (5,800/0) Duel 2: Nothing really important here...I won...that's about it. (3,800/0) =========== =========== Round 4: Me (Nate S./Masked Beast Desruction) vs. Jason ? (Beatdown with a Bazoo) Duel 1: This was close. I got really low on life points then placed one of my Nimble Mononga's face down in defense mode. He then proceeded to attack it and I searched my deck for the other 2. I realized that one of them had been card destuctioned in the beginning ofm the duel and I couldn't get him back so I was mostly defensless and he tore through my last Mononga, leaving me at 0 life points. He had also reborned one of my Masked Beasts. (0/1,600) Duel 2: I never took any damage....I just attacked a few times with The Masked Beast and won. (8,000/0) Duel 3: He pulled a HUGE COMBO!!! First he pulled some really powerful beatdown monsters and proceeded to attack me with them over and over. He then smashed through my last defenses (Mononga's again) and won the round. That's it folks. I came in 4th. There were only 3 other players there. And Jason moved on to win the tournament. Congrats to him. He's a really good duelist. Slops: -Losing -Uh....?
