Tourney Report:

I’m excited to write this because this was the first Yu-Gi-Oh tournament that

I’ve ever played in and what an experience. I’m a young adult and love this

game. I don’t know how all of you keep track of every card you play, maybe it

becomes habit after awhile, who knows. Anyway, my first tournament experience

and I’m happy to say that I made it all the way to the finals, now onto the

matches. Format was set up for best 2 out of 3 duels.

 

 

Round 1: Me-vs-Rob (The only grown-up) (Toon Deck)

            Duel 1: I elect to let my opponent go first and immediately saw what

I was up against. He activated Toon World on his very first play and summoned

Toon Mermaid. I set Gravity Bind and summoned a Karate Man w/Axe of Despair.

Over the next few turns he summoned Toon Blue Eyes & Toon Summoned Skull. I had

activated Gravity Bind which kept him from attacking and he had nothing to get

rid of my “GB”. I also had a Penguin Soldier & Man Eater Bug set face down. I

flipped summoned both of those and cleared the board, I then summoned Muka Muka,

played a couple magic cards face down and activated Mage Power on my Muka Muka.

Then I attacked him directly and wiped him out in the next couple turns. 8000-0

            Duel 2: He got the better of me here, I couldn’t get my Gravity Bind

out, and he got some Toons out and kept attacking my LP directly. I made a great

come-back late with an Axed Karate Man and added United We Stand with 2 of my

weaker monsters out on the field, ended up doing a some serious damage, but came

up short. 0-1500

            Duel 3: I got my GB out, used Raigeki to clear the field and leveled

him with my powered up Muka Muka, Karate Man, and Hayabusa Knight. 7000-0

 

Round 2: Me-vs-Charlie (13 yrs) Beatdown with Ground Collapse

            Duel 1: This kid had a deck that was about 3 times as tall as mine

and he decked me. He got 2 ground collapses out on the field and kept countering

my magic removal cards. Late in the game he played Card Destruction, Reborned my

Cyber Jar, and then flipped his own Cyber Jar. I was toast. I actually almost

pulled it off, but made a mistake late in the game and got decked out.

Got Decked w/4000 LP – 1500 (Charlie)

            Duel 2: I got my GB out and kept chipping away at his life points,

he hit me a few times with my own cards thanks to Change of Heart, but I

finished him off when I got my Jinzo out after wiping out all his monsters and

attacked directly to finish him off. 3000-0

            Duel 3: He got Ground Collapse out on me again but this time he

couldn’t stop my Heavy Storm. I got out my heavy hitters (Karate Man, Hayabusa,

& Muka) flipped my Gravity Bind and finished him off in no time. 7000-0

 

Round 3: Me-vs-Joe (13 yrs) Beatdown

            Duel 1:  This only lasted two turns. He set first turn, I hit him

with Raigeki, summoned my Axed Hayabusa Knight, set 1 other magic/trap card,

played Mage Power and hit him directly twice for 6000 damage. He set again his

next turn, I summoned Karate Man and finished him off.

8000-0

            Duel 2: Almost the same as the first duel, lasted a little longer, I

just kept keeping his side of the board clean and kept chipping away with

weenies. 8000-0

 

Finals: Me-vs-Ray (Teenager) Weenie + Gemini

            Duel 1: I seriously got worked in the finals and I’ll blame it on my

lack of experience. Ray went first played Gemini Elf and set a couple magic/trap

cards. I thought I’d try what worked for me before, I played Raigeki but Ray was

too smart for that, he activated Solemn Judgement and that was about it for me.

I played Karate Man in attack mode and ended my turn. Ray played Graceful

Charity, then discarded GAF and Hayabusa Knight to the Graveyard, he then

summoned another Hayabusa Knight axed him, used Premature Burial to bring Back

GAF, Call of the Haunted to bring back the other Hayabusa Knight and then

attacked. GAF took out my Karate Man (I used effect) to minimize damage, then he

hit me with the others and wiped out my life points all at once. 0-4000(Solemn

Judgement)

            Duel 2: Again Ray just got all the cards he needed, Changed of Heart

my only defense and wiped me out with his Maged Hayabusa Knight, Gemini Elf, and

my Karateman. 0-8000.

 

Overall this was a great experience, I got two boosters for 2nd place and I look

forward to facing Ray again in the future.
