Today was very interesting and for you to get the full effect of it I will have to tell it from a certain point.
When I got up today I changed my clothes and went out and did my chicken house work(I live on a farm). After that I took a shower got dressed for the tourney today and waited for my mom to get home with my truck. I waited till 1:05 and finally my mom came so I had to rush and speed and break a few laws, all to get to the tournament late, cause I got there at 2:10 when it started at 2:00...
I asked the tournament official, Nicki, if it would be alright if I could participate today even though I was late, she thought about it for a sec and said yes cause I asked so nicely..
After that I had a little time to do a little trading so I talked to Josh and bought a Reflect Bounder off of him and traded my Tp2 common and rare's set for a Vampire Lord which completed my deck to the way I wanted it, a little down side was that I couldn't use a side deck cause I traded some cards from there...oh well....
 
So here is how my tourney went..
 
Round-1
Me Vs. Luis?-unorganized beatdown(newbie)
Duel-1
This was really too easy, he just kept putting monsters in defense and I used my spells to get rid of them and attack a few times to win..
Duel-2
*See Duel-1
Round-2
Me Vs. Zach-unorganized beatdown-(newbie)
Duel-1
This guy was only slightly better than the little kid in round one, he tried attacking at first but I ultimatly destroyed him with my Spear Dragon's..
Duel-2
Very similar to duel-1 only he attacked me once......
Round-3
Duel-1
Me Vs. Josh-Beatdown( or something like it..)
This was the first real challenge...
Josh and I were waiting for someone to finish up in round 2 so we decided to duel, I somehow got the misconception that this was for the tournament so I dueled my hardest while Josh was laid back, and lost both duels....
Then I was informed that round 2 was over and round 3 was begining I was a little perterbed but I dealed with it...
Duel-1
This was tough now that he was actually dueling, so we went at it and he got me almost down and out but I made a recovery by using my poison of the old man to prevent him from using his Injection Fairy Lily, after that I won by using my Spear Dragon's to break his defenses..
Duel-2
This was about the same but we both kept on using our drawing cards and drawing nothing helpful, eventually I drew a monster and killed him off...
Round-4-Semi-finals
Me Vs. John-John-deck depletion/beatdown
This is the guy who beat me last week and he is tough, cause he runs a depletion/beatdown and he uses two Needle Worms to the fullest...
Duel-1
John is tough, so I played a little cautiously and depleted his hand with my confiscation and D-duo after that it was still tough but not as tough as last week..
Duel-2
This time I had won before the duel started, I kept on drawing my clearing cards and my strong monsters after a little he made a come back and brought me down to 100LP! while he had 700.. I drew my Poison of the old man and that was that....
Round-5-finals
Me Vs. John(different guy)-direct damage/beatdown
Duel-1
This guy had me on the ropes at first and got me down to less than 1000 LP but I made a comeback with my poison of the old man/fiber jar combo, and defeated him a short time after that..
Duel-2
This was very easy cause he kept drawing only spells and traps and I defeated him with my Jinzo....
 
Winner-ME!
 
After I won against John I went to get my three packs, I have never had much luck with packs and I wasn't expecting much, so I opened my first pack and low and behold the very first card was none other than ROYAL DECREE!!!!!!
The rest was 7 commons and one rare, Call of The Dark....(big whoop)
I couldn't believe my luck at this, needless to say I was VERY HAPPY!
 
Props:
1st place- YEAH!
ROYAL DECREE!-YEAH!
Nicki for letting me join even though I was late..
Me for not losing once!
I didn't smell anyone's breath this time...(thank God!)
 
Slops:
Having to speed to get there...
Not being able to get my Transformers calandar....-_-
 
That's pretty much it...
 
Feel free to ask me questions or challenge me to a duel or make me an offer on my Royal Decree.........
