YUGIOH TOURNAMENT REPORT COLLAGE TCS TED CANADA I woke up Thursday morning, moaning about having to go to school when I realized, we have a day off today, and there's a Duel Monsters event today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay. Just like that, I jumped up and began going over my deck. I'm running a Dark Necrofear beatdown deck today and its worked well in my practise duels. Well, here it is. Monsters: 2x Kuriboh (works well with Dark Necrofear) 2x Wall of Illusion (see Kuriboh) 2x La Jinn (see wall of Illusion) 1x Penguin Soldier (Penguin with a sword, funny) 2x Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer (nice 4 star monster) 2x Bazoo the Soul-Eater (a level 4 Summoned Skull = happy days) 1x Summoned Skull (see La Jinn) 2x Gemini Elf (got em' both in 1 box) 1x Witch of the Black Forest (a.k.a. WotBF) 2x Dark Necrofear (wow, a free Snatch Steal) 1x Jinzo (!!!) 1x Cyber Jar (kablammo) Magic: 1x Graceful Charity (is it restricted, or not, someone tell me) 1x Pot of Greed (mmmmmm, more is better) 1x Change of Heart (meh) 1x Heavy Storm (will be restricted) 1x Harpie's Feather Duster (I don't have it in English, but the store owner said we could use Japanese ones until the English one comes out) 1x Tribute to the Dommed (a.k.a. TttD) 2x Mystical Spa..... (too lazy to write the whole thing, now known as MST) 1x Raigeki (after 5 sets, still a good card) 1x Nobleman of Crossout (see change of heart) 1x Premature Burial (see...... never mind) 1x Mage Power (!!!) 1x Swords of Revealing Light (a.k.a. SoRL) 1x Dark Hole (Cyber Jar's freaky Brother) 1x Snatch Steal (meh) 1x Monster Reborn () 1x Scape Goat (sheep sheep, I want sheep) Traps: Imperial Order (mines 1st Edition) Mirror Force (Mirror Force) Call of the Haunted (a.k.a. CotH) Torrential Tribute (all that water makes me wanna....) Magic Cylinder (it's Magic Cylinder, not Magical Cylinder) The tourney had too many people to count, so I'll estimate about 45. 1st Place was a Gemini Elf and 5 LoN packs (nice) 2nd Place was Magic Cylinder, or the Joey or Pegasus decks (also nice) 3rd Place was Dark Necrofear and 2 LoN packs (all good prizes this week) Single Elimination ROUND 1, me v.s. a kid who had every card and was very rich and snobby. Duel 1: It took a while for me to draw any game-breaking cards, but after about 12 turns I drew raigeki, played CotH, Premature Burial etc. and won Duel 2: He played a United we Stand and a Mage Power on a summoned skull, attacked my Atk mode Kuriboh (don't ask why) and then I played Magic Cylinder... End Game for him, it was about 5300 direct damage, OUCH!!! Round 2, me v.s. the last kids older brother, ughhh Duel 1: He was even worse, I mean he drew about 10 cards at the start by cheating (I didn't care though) and then put a BEWD down without Sacrificing. I'm not even going to say anything else. END GAME BIG TIME. Round 3, me v.s. a small kid with a bad attitude and a foul mouth Duel 1: We I played Gemini Elf, he started swearing and saying, how the F... did a loser like me get such a great card. I felt bad for him, not only did he lose both duels fast, he's only 10, and his mom looked like she just came out of a garbage dump. Sigh. Round 4, me v.s. a really nice guy who deserves to win, but probably won't Duel 1: He ran Exodia and Destiny Board, which was kinda weird, cuz he got my attention away from exodia by using the Destiny Board as a Distraction, that's how he got so far. Fortunately, I played a quick MST on the "F" in the FINAL word and then attacked his hand with a side decked Deliquent Duo. Not to mention I got rid of them for good with Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer. Duel 2: This time he just couldn't draw any stalling monsters, however, he did mangage to get 4 Exodia pieces in his hand. Oh well, I won. Round 5, me v.s. Todd the store owner and ranked #2 in the store. (I'm #1 but I think he's better than me) Duel 1: He over whelmed me by attacking my hand with Consfication and Deliquent Duo etc. and then the field with Jinzo. I lost big time to his killer strategie Duel 2: I decided to side deck 3 Magic Jammers into my deck along with 2 Solemn Judgements. This set up worked really well, I discarded losts of Fiends with Magic Jammer(and stopped his DD, Consf.) and summoned Dark Necrofear. The only lps I lost was when I Solemn Judgemented his Jinzo. Duel 3: It turned out that Magic Jammers work really well with my deck, perhaps I'll build a deck around them. Oh ya, I won. Round 6: I got a bye to the Semi Finals Round 7: Some people left and I got another Bye, I'll lose my touch if I don't keep practising. BREAK: there was about a 1 and a Half hour break before the finals, so I had lunch, and traded some cards for anoter Kuriboh (yay fluff ball) Round 8: the finals, me v.s. an adult who runs a counter deck with reliquished. Round 1: He killed me, apparently he also uses Dark Necrofear and Giant Germs (there fiends and die quickly) Round 2: It was his game all the way until I played raigeki, he jammed it but I had Side decked Solemn Judgement again and well, that won it for me Round 3: The only way to beat a counter deck, is with counters. So I stuffed my deck with lots of counters. It really paied off too, I mopped the floor with his face, I solemn Judgemented his Necrofear and then removed it with Kycoo. Also, Kuriboh save me against an asimilated summoned skull. I won the Gemini Elf, in my packs I got nothing except another Torrential Tribute. PROPS: to good food for lunch to Kuriboh for that last minute save to Magic Jammer and Solemn Judgement for saving me big time to me for winning the tourney to anything I missed SLOPS: to sadam hussein for war reasons to sadam hussein for war reasons to sadam hussein for war reasons to sadam hussein for war reasons to sadam hussein for war reasons to anything I missed If u wanna contact me, the e-mail is tedmccluskie@hotmail.com I'll take any threats, bashes or compliments, or just someone wanting to talk. _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail
