I got to borrow an MST from the owner (it was the common version and he wouldn't trade for it for some stupid reason) and I also got me a Tribe Infecting Virus before the tournament starter. Tournament: Just like usual, first we start with three rounds. In these rounds we duel the best two out of three. If you won, you got 3 points. Winning a 2-0 match is better than winning a 2-1 match and losing a 0-2 match is worse than losing a 1-2 match. Prizes: 1st: $45 store credit towards YGO cards 2nd: $25 store credit towards YGO cards 3rd-4th: $10 store credit towards YGO cards Everyone Else: One $3 YGO pack Needless to say, I didn't want to buy YGO cards, especially since he was sold out of Magician Force. I didn't need anything in the other sets really. I wanted to buy manga, I guess that dreams was thrown out the window. Duel Reports: --Duel #1 Lufia22 vs. Ventura-- -Round 1- lufia: 8000-5600 Ventura: 8000-3900-2000-0 -Round 2- lufia:8000-7100-3600-2600-0 Ventura: 8000-6000-5700 -Round 3- lufia: 8000-5600-3200 Ventura: 8000-6500-5000-2700-900-0 Dear God, do I always have to play this guy? I'm really sick of playing this guy. He was going to trade for a Confiscation, The Forceful Sentry and Delinquent Duo before the tournament started. My guess would be because he had Yata. Good thing he didn't trade. Oh well. He beat me the second. He's nothing special, better than most people there. I wouldn't lose to him if my deck were actually good but since it's only mediocre what can I expect? I won and luckily it was the last time I had to play this guy in this tournament. He didn't make it to the final 8. Thank God. --Duel #2 Lufia22 vs. Blake-- -Round 1- lufia: 8000-3400-0 Blake: 8000-6800-5800 -Round 2- L: 8000-7000-6250-5250-6250-7250 B: 8000-6100-3750-1400-0 -Round 3- L: 8000-7650 B: 8000-7700-7550-3850-150-0 Ok...This guy has some birth defect and looks weird. Not making fun but I'm not sure if it affects his brain either. You tend to want to feel sorry for these types of people but I sure didn't towards this guy. Ok, he pulled Hayabusa Knight on me in the first duel. God, that card is lethal when your deck sucks, lol. In the second duel I think he could have won but I was unsure on a ruling of a card but since I was the judge I could rule anything I wanted. And who cares if I was wrong or not, he was cheating anyways. He kept looking at the top card of his deck and I threatened to turn him in. His deck was a Warrior/Earth type deck. It sucked. He used some comboes with Bad Reaction to Simochi but his only power was with Hayabusa Knight. How annoying. --Duel #3 Lufia22 vs. Matt-- -Round 1- lufia: 8000-7600 Matt: 8000-7550-5700-5200-3600-2000-400-0 -Round 2- L: 8000-7000-6000 M: 8000-6000-3000-0 This was the most fun duel in the tournament. I thought this guy was cool, even though he was a bit...annoying doesn't describe him totally. Anyways, I guess his deck was beatdown, I don't know. He has good cards he just sucks. ---FINAL 8--- --Duel #4 Lufia22 vs. Curt-- -Round 1- lufia: 8000-7000 Curt: 8000-5600-5100-2800-0 -Round 2- L: 8000-4800 C: 8000-7750-2400-0 This was some old guy. He looked to be in his 30's or so. I had watched him in his earlier duels and he was quite annoying but I guess it was because he was playing little kids. He just said everything he did. Well, he didn't have to in our duel together. He was running an odd sort of Gradius deck. He never got it out on me and he misused Limiter Removal once. I beat him pretty fast and I shut him up. Nice guy, I just don't see why he is hanging around a YGO tournament. --Duel #5 Lufia22 vs. Matt-- -Round 1- lufia: 8000-7900 Matt: 8000-7100-6000-4900-3800-1900-300-0 -Round 2- L: 8000-5600-1400-900-600 M: 8000-7300-5700-3900-2900-1900-0 Nothing happened special until the second duel. See, he played Change of Heart on my Witch of the Black Forest then played Opticlops and attacked in quick succession giving me no time to think. I said I wanted to activate Trap Hole (why do I still have this card?!) on his Opticlops. He said I couldn't and he claimed that he played Opticlops THEN CoH. Obviously he is either lying or he never gave me time to TH his Opticlops or never asked me if I wanted to. See duelists, make sure you give your opponent a chance to do something if you think they are able to respond to you. Anyways, he could have beaten me in the second duel but he was stupid and be bought me one extra turn for the win. Thanks. Now I don't think this guy is cool one bit. He flicked me off and called me names for the rest of the duel. What a bunch of lamers. --Duel #6 Final Round Lufia22 vs. I (don't remember his name)-- -Round 1- lufia: 8000-5350-4350-2250-1550-950-0 I: 8000-6200-5550-4850-3250-2550 -Round 2- L: 8000-7000-0 I: 8000-4700-3900-0 -Round 3- L: 8000-0 I: 8000-7000 My best challenger. I've seen this guy at the tournament but he never participated. He basically ran a Fiend/Yatalock deck. Meh. He had good cards basically but he really wasn't that great he just knew some of the popular strategy. I didn't draw Tribe Infecting Virus ONCE in these duels but it would have helped A LOT since his is a type deck. Ha-Des are annoying to deal with. I got REALLY crappy draws in Round 3 and he finished me off with a Yatalock with 2 Ha-Des and a Necrofear out as well. Meh...Yata. I plan on getting Array of Revealing light to put in my side deck just for this guy's deck. I got 2nd place and $25 store credit. Woopty. I have to buy YGO cards! I was planning on buying manga or video games. Not to mention he didn't have MFC cards. I bought a Creature Swap and luckily he let me buy Yu Yu Hakusho packs instead. Props: -I got my last Necrovalley for my deck but I'm still missing a handful of cards that are semi-essential -I actually had challenge -I got Halt! in my YYH pack! Yay!!! Slops: -These people have horrible attitudes -I could only buy YGO cards -Prizes sucked
