Time of tourney: 9:30-12:15
Entry Fee: $5
Prize: PGD pack when eliminated and raffle for packs
Yup, it's me again. I call my deck Abusive Beatdown because it abuses Kycoo
and Bazoo. (might as well do it till they're changed) It also abuses Graceful
Charity, but during the tourney it was one Graceful and one Painful. I thought
Hopalong Bill was imposing that along with his preliminary PGD restriction list,
but he isn't. Anyway, here's my deck. Sorry, no inside jokes this time.

Sorry, no rhyme this time either. I'm not in a rhyming mood. Anyway, Robbie
bought Fiber Jar, Magic Cylinder, and something else. (Crossout, I think) I
bought a Sasuke and we were ready to roll.
Round 1
Me vs. Garrett
Duel 1
Oh great. I had to play against the #3 player in the store and Season 2
champ in the first round. I braced myself for the worst. We hit each other for
1900 early on. (maybe that was from a Ring, i don't know) Later, he attacked my
f/d Sinister Serpent with his Spear Dragon and attacked my f/u Kycoo with his
Gemini Elf. I Dark Holed, Prematured Kycoo, summoned Gemini Elf, and did 3700
damage. Next turn he cleared my field and hit me with a GAF. I cleared his field
and hit him with a GAF. The end of this duel is a blur, but I won.
Me 8000>6100>4350>2050>1250
Garrett 8000>6100>2400>100>0
Duel 2
I had to keep myself form getting too cocky. Luckily, I was able to do
that. I hit him with a GAF and then a Gemini Elf early on. However, he got some
good draws and slaughtered me with Yata and some backup. At least I was able to
hold on for a few turns with Sinister Serpent.
Me 8000>7800>7600>5700>4200>1300>0
Garrett 8000>5700>3500>1600>1500
Duel 3
I hit him early with a Kycoo, then again with something else but I
don't remember what. The next turn, I cleared his field, revived some
stuff, and attacked for the win. He didn't even know what hit him.
Me 8000
Garrett 8000>6200>5100>0
Updates
Robbie won. James also won with a Warrior deck that he borrowed from some
guy named Steve. Tee hee, his sleeves were lavender.
Round 2
Me vs. Javier
Duel 1
I really hated this kid's deck. It was loaded with Counter Traps; very
annoying. I don't remember much of this first duel, just that he really
annoyed me by using White Hole, Seven Tools, and Magic Jammer. Luckily, I
managed to hang on to win.
Me 8000>5800>4050>3250>1350
Javier 8000>7700>6700>4800>2300>400>0
Duel 2
This was different. I Ring'd my own GAF in the early going and dominated
thereafter. Sorry, but my memory of this is a bit fuzzy.
Me 8000>5700>5600>5300
Javier 8000>5700>3700>0
Round 3
Me vs. Ricky
Duel 1
That's weird. I thought Ricky sold his deck for $100 a while back. I guess
he made a comeback. He really put up a fight, though. I have absolutely no
memory of the first duel. I'm drawing a total blank here. Luckily, I have my
life totals to refer to.
Me 8000>7000>6900
Ricky 8000>6200>5900>5300>2500>0
Duel 2
I don't remember this very clearly either, just that I messed up and used
Snatch Steal in Main Phase 2, so he gained a bunch of Life and beat me into the
ground.
Me 8000>5800>3900>3100>800>0
Ricky 8000>6900>6500>5500<6500
Duel 3
This one was no better. All I can really remember is that I Ring'd his GAF
early on and he used Delinquent Duo on me at some point. He did that in the
second duel, too. Most. Annoying. Card. Ever.
Me 8000>5700>600>400>0
Ricky 8000>7000>4700>2600<3600<4600
Aftermath
I bought a Spirit Reaper for no reason in particular. I also pulled a Ring
in my prize pack. I swapped the two Rings just so I can say "I got my Ring in a
pack." I would use both, but I can't due to Hopalong Bill's preliminary
restriction list. The raffle packs were a new game called Ophidian. It's made by
Fleer and I don't understand it at all. I didn't win a raffle pack, but Robbie
did. Some of the cards he got were two-sided. Maybe you set them apart from the
deck, like a Fusion Deck of sorts. Speaking of which, my Fusion Deck is 55
cards. w00t! Anyway, Robbie and I double-dueled against Garrett and Ricky. While
we were dueling, Hopalong Bill was talking to some little kid and he said,
"Watch these guys. They're some of the best players we have." SOMEbody's nose is
looking a little brown. (hint hint, Bill) Well, until next week... Oh, right,
props and slops, almost forgot...
Props
to Hopalong Bill for holding tournies.
to Robbie for getting all those good cards.
to Garrett for giving me one of my best matches ever.
to Pot of Weed for being the most awesomest card ever. Yeah, I said
awesomest, what???
to me for finding the pen that I lost.
to Wendy's Frosties because they rock.
Slops
to Hopalong Bill's restriction list for being almost totally wrong.
to Upper Deck/Konami of America for not making a new restriction list right
away.
to the girls at the makeshift car wash for not wearing their bikinis.
You can e-mail me if you want. Just don't bash. Otherwise I'll have to...
ummm... do stuff to you...
