The main idea for my deck is basically to control the board, and have major card advantage against my opponent. The cards that help me are Yata- Garasu, Chaos Emperor Dragon and the three hand control cards I have in the deck. 
The deck dose however, somtimes have a little trouble with beatdown, but most of the time it will do fine. The tournament had four rounds and then cut to top eight, top four, and top two.

FIRST ROUND: ME VS. Mark.
Mark is Ky's dad and also a judge at showtime and chandler, he runs a typical beatdown deck with Maruding Captains and Beserk Gorilla's.
I went first, and drew alot of good stuff but I decided to play it smart and not to over extend.I set Imperial Order face down and a monster in defense mode. He summoned marauding and Berserk Gorilla and attack with his Gorilla to my face down tomato, so I got another tomato out so he couldn't attack with his Captain. He said go so I drew a Pot of Greed and Played Painful Choice and Both Chaos for the win. Second Match I Yata- lock him in a few turns.
Record: 1-0

Second Round: Me VS. Some random kid.
He was running Final Countdown with beatdown. It wasn't good and the first game I smashed he with chaos. Second game I drew both chaos in my first hand and played a Mirage of Nightmare. He let me draw and I spaced the mirage, played painful, Reborned Jinzo and played both chaos for the 2-0 victory.
Record:2-0

Third Round: Me VS. Mike
Mike is the judge at showtime and chandler also, he runs a typical beatdown deck. First game he had me on the ropes but I top decked a Change of Heart for the win. Second game I had field control and card advatage the whole game. I got a pot, confiscation and Deilinquent Duo, it was amazing.
Record: 3-0

Fourth Round: Me VS. Steven
Steven is an anyoning kid that runs Thunder Dragon chaos and thinks he real good. On the first game I ape smashed him with Jinzo and Kycoo. Second game I blew up the Chaos Emperor Dragon for the win.
Record: 4-0

Top Eight: Me VS. Justin
Justin was using a one turn scientist deck. I haven't done to well against one turn scientist before.
The first game he reasoned out Catapulte Turtle and summened the Magical Scientist for the first win. Second game I used Delinquent Duo and set an Imperial, Mirage of Nightmar and Witch of the Black Forest. He tryed to reason but I Imperial Ordered it and then he set three cards face down and said go. I resolved the Mirage of Nightmare, tributed the Witch for Jinzo, Harpie's Feather Duster and Justin Scooped. Third game he used Reasoning and I call it right by saying five and he got a catapulte Turtle. He played Mirage and set three cards and sayed go. I let him draw and played Painful Choice for the Chaos Emperor Dragon, I attacked with it and blew it up and he scooped the match.

Top Four: Me VS. Ky
Ky has a beatdown deck but uses Magical Scientist and Metamorphisis in it. 
Ky smashed me at Reginals and ever since them I never lost to him. I smashed him 2-0 with chaos.

Last match: Me VS. Mark
First match I Yata- locked him in a couple of turns. Second gamed he got out five monsters on me and all I had was two space typhoon's set and a sangan so I scooped. Third Game took a while but he ended up killing himself. He was at 1100 life points and had played a Sangan in attack mode with a Fiend MegaCyber out. Next he played the only card in his hand, a Creature Swap. He forgot that I chose the monster and had nothing else so he scooped.

I got $20.00 in Tourney Credit. I can't remeber the prizes for second and third.

I have no after thoughts because I didn't mess up once the tourney and feel my deck is good how it is, but I did have to top-deck a few cards to win this tournament. All in all, I felt this was an awsome tournament for me.
