Ehem... so, there's my deck. I still 
couldn't get the proper cards for the
machine deck I planned for, so I went 
back so my most successful deck ever;
my light. Really, I'm waiting for 
Mythological Age... which will be 
released with Struggle of Chaos in
the upcoming LOD. "Goatkiller" Asura,
Volt Girl(MY Geminis) and Heavenly
Knight Perseus will help this deck along.
This deck needs some power, though. :p
>_< One more Cyclone Laser to go! Come
on... just one more for my machine deck!

$6 to enter
TP3 at last.
I don't know what the prize is, ;p

Round 1: Voltaire vs. Nick
        Heheh. Nick. Unlike me, he defeated 
one of Upperdeck's "Professional" players...
back at the Mall Tour. He's also a very good
player, and is pretty well-known at A World
of Books. Meh. I probably belong in the beginner
tourney, but it's less fun to tell stories about
losing to half-witted little kids. ;p
        First round, I'm feeling strong. Jeff
aka Bandit Keif is standing pretty close waiting
for his next duel, so I'm kinda nervous about my
performance. I'm a fan of his, you see. Well 
anyway, I start pretty early by taking one of
Nick's Geminis' attacks personally. A little bit
into the game, I take a little more overflow 
damage. Soon, I'm staring down a Jinzo, a Kycoo
and a Gemini. My only creature is Bazoo, and
with Kycoo out, I can't do anything. Probably 
would've been my last card if I had not drawn...
Raigeki. I must've been wearing some kind of 
version of the Millenium Puzzle, 'cause it
came just when I needed it. BAM! Gone. I start
an offense, and take him out. Pure luck! Pure
luck! But will my luck last?
        I won the first one, so that supposedly 
makes it harder for my opponent to win...
seeing as he has to win 2 in a row. My first move,
Graceful. Then I make him discard 2 of his own.
What luck! Out of the 4 cards in his hand, I make
him discard... Raigeki. Whoa. I play Hysteric, as
I myself am hysteric. But he change of hearts it,
summons Sangan, and after attacking, tributes
both to gain a whole 1000 lps. Damn. He soon
whittles me away.
        This one's pretty quick. He hits me
quick. I hit him back with a big-boosted Bazoo,
Mage Power and his own effect. But then... Change
of Heart. I'm not disheartened, because face-down 
I have a Mirror Force. Holy Barrier- Mirror Force,
of course, not the 306 Evil Barrier- Mirror Force...
well, ehem... he starts counting. He removes 3 more...
That's 2500+900+2000... 5400. He asks, "That's game
isn't it?" I reveal Mirror Force. He uses 7 tools.
Gah!

Tourney Highlights:
-Got to play Serf today. He's good. Definitely. 
-I watched many good duels today. I'm overwhelmed!

Cons:
-Meh!!! Will I ever get a single win? Guess not...

           -Note: Meh. Just another Cyclon Laser
and it's complete. A Barrel would be nice, though...
But it's probably just going to be a beefed up version
of this next week. Meh.
