Ok Down to it so I get there and the place is packed this was the 3rd regional’s held
At Sydney games centre and it was biggest one so far there were 101 people there when I got there for rego.After I registered I sat down and tried to make a few trades (unsuccessful) I tried finding my friend’s denny and mark to see what they where up to but I had then found out that denny will be judging the tournament for the day (GETTM! STEVE DAVE!) he’s supposedly a level 1 judge. Finally they call time and it’s time to start. So they put the pairing’s up on the coke machine on the way I figured it’s first round they would probably pair me up with a little kid (I was right)
 
(1st round)
Marko(me) vs Little kid???
So we start and my hand is a magic packed zone I had from memory I believe change of heart, heavy storm, confiscation and I think it was nobleman so I won the flip so I decided to let the kid go first he set 2 m/t fd and played harpies brother in attack mode. I draw and it’s a drop of darn and at the time the only monster I had was magician of faith so I opened with heavy storm and set drop off fd he played I believe a spellbinding circle and some other crap card fdi continued on with magican and confiscation his hand was pretty bad 2 fissure’s I played drop off and got rid of his bpt tinzo lucky me he attack and I got back confiscationt and this is where it ended next draw I drew lily and pounded his harpies I new he had fissure I didn’t care I was pretty cofedent he would draw crap as he did my next draw phase I drew a yata of all cards which I slammed down. the kid surrendered after I explained to him the effect.
 
(1st duel 2)
Not much to say but locked again unfortunately  (OUCH!) poor kid
 
After that short round I went to check out how my cousin was doing me and him made the deck that im using together he was using another deck we had made well he had also one with no problem’s so did mark and a couple of my other friends
 
(2nd round)
Marko vs Jenniffer lam
Ohh this was perfect this chic beat my ass so hard last time I duelled her and I was really really scared she had a pumped deck so we started and I won the toss praying for my hand destruction card’s early yes forceful sentry I have to say my hand was smoking! I had a ring snatch mystical space don pot and forceful I played pot and drew a gobblin and I think either witch or sangan one of the 2 so I played forceful and had a good look at her hand ill never forget it she had kuriboh her own snatch and 3 other monsters useless ones I picked her kuriboh believe it or not and set ring and mystical and summoned sangan or witch I still don’t remember and ended she set 1 m/t damn I didn’t want to waste mystical but I had to so I did and it was a woboku lucky me and she summoned pyramid turtle which was in her hand earlier and I remembered her stratergy from last time V-Lord dang so I chained ring blew it away as fast as I could I was happy I felt at ease that I had a clear field so I thought ill take the chance now I drew a breaker and thought ok ill hold that for now and summoned the old gobblin attack force (JACKSON!) and beasticed her for about 3400 and I ended with only snatch in my hand it was her turn and I believe she top decked a spear dragon because I didn’t see it before so she summoned it and played snatch on my goblin and attacked oww eeee ok she killed my witch which I used to get out my favourite card lily I thought ill use it on her since I had a plan I drew a heavy storm yippe for me which I firmly slammed down and got my goblin back then I had a scuffle with her that I couldn’t turn goblin and I told her that I could so finally she understood and we continued I summoned my breaker this turn and thought ok ill win this now if I keep a steady head I played snatch on her spear and thought ok pray no kuribohs I said I attack and she says “ok you win that’s game” thrilled with joy I shuffled the deck and was ready to beat her again …
 
(2nd Round duel 2)
Ok she decided to go first my hand was alright jinzo lily harpies raigeki dark hole good field clearance but a imperial order would kill me damn she went by play a monster fd and 1 m/t fd of my turn need a good card breaker ok that’s good I could use this I thought ok so I played harpies and closed my eyes I heard no chain when I looked up a ring was all by its lonesome in the grave yes good now raigeki and here it comes yeah lily (Inspirational music) Da Da Da Daaaaaaaaa ok so I attack and pump yippeeee 3400 to you what do I see kuriboh floating  to the graveyard SHREEEEEEEEEEEEECH darn 2000 for nothing I thought it was over but a few turns later it was I victorious at the end of the duel we shook hands and I explained to her how I had never mentally recovered from the defeat she gave me or had my other friends who were also beaten by her last regionals (Im looking at you steave dave!)
 
After that I told all my friend’s which they all congragulated  me on thanx guys heeeeeeeeeheheheheh now I was pumped and ready Lets! Duel!
 
(3rd Round)
Marko vs newbie (Sorry dude)
Ok I see the pairings and I see that im sitting next to my cousin vangle ok someone to talk to if I loose or win ok I get there about 5 mins before he does ok I thought lets sought the deck (shuffle) bascically  he gets there and hes about my age I thought ok lets see what I’ve got in my hand at the time he decided to go first since he wont the toss ok first what gave me the impression he was a newb was no sleeves sorry but no serious duelists duels without sleeves so we get started and he sets 2 m/t fd I have a counter he he harpies and a mystical just incase if imperial is there fd so opend with a harpies and I remember me having a change of heart waiting in the wings and a d.d in my hand the only monster by my recall so all his magic traps are gone one card I have never seen played before I have it its only common but I have never read what it does don’t ask me what it does its like a fissure not (Widespread ruin) some pgd crap anyway that and I believe trap hole so I summon d.d and he says can I see that man I thought the guy was brought up in a cave andyway I attack for 1500 his turn he defends and ends I thought ok easy prey for my change of heart and what card to draw better than a jinzo ok so change of heart sac it jinzo attack with d.d and jinzo his fd by the way was a penguin soldier typical so next turn defending good I thought, I have him stuck….i draw……..yes dark hole just incase ok d.d attacks eyes shut! Reaper! Spirit reaper remove jinzo attacks he draws and surrenders phew good lets go round 2
After that I check with vangel sitting next to me and looks like they were already going in to round 3 I had a look over at who he was doing a little annoying brat anyway I had my own delemass at mind I looked over at my opponent and he was just making changes with his sidedeck ok he was ready
 
(3rd Round duel 2)
Well not much to say but beat him with the old beatsticks goblin jinzo lily
 
After that duel I was relaxed I had 15 mins left in the round to relax vangel had lost to the little chineese kid who I swore to get my revenge on for my cousin well 15 mins and 2 cokes later I was ready for round 4 who was next I went to check damnit this guy is good I’ve beaten him before but he gave me a long one so round 4 here we go!
 
(4th Round)
Marko vs I forget?????
Well he won the toss dam I suck at the toss so he goes first pot of greed opening very annoying I hate it because I never get pot or graceful well he goes and sets 2 m/t and enraged battle ox in attack mode?????????? Bad move anyway my turn I draw my 6th card and its woooopeee a dark hole which I play he plays nothing enraged goes to the grave so then I continued on with mystical space on 1 of the fd’s which was a fake trap lol ok then I summon the very loyal and brutal goblin attack force which I use as bait to attack flips the fd! SCAPEGOAT! Baaaaaaa ok 1 down 3 to go I also set a call of the haunted and a ring fd his turn sets another fd m/t damn and summons dark blade you know the normal rare from mfc 1800 attack yeah he didn’t see much play he slammed into my ring hello! Ok he ends his turn I draw a monster reborn ok scapegoat no point but then I thought lets play a combo I play monster reborn on his enraged and set my magician ok attack his scapegoat he goes ok I thought good but I didn’t see him calculate the damage because of enrageds effect so I told him and he first got confused so I explained and then he realized ok so 1700 to him his turn he plays his own dark hole ok im fine with that and flips his fd card which is premature burial don’t ask me why he set it and got back his blade and sacked for dark ruler damn not the fd please luckily he destroyed goblin my turn needed a miracle heart of the card’s yes lily ok I summoned her and played a big combo flipped the fd magician and got back monster reborn and flipped call of the haunted and got back goblin then played monster reborn on his dark blade ok here we go party time I just got ready to say attack and he said yeah that’s game yes ok next one.
 
(4th Round duel 2)
Now he looked pissed and I was shaking I could feel a defeat coming on till I saw my hand ha ha raigeki don delinquent forceful and mirror force finally fo he set 1 m/t and he defended with a monster ok I draw and trusty old mystical space ok field clearance time (does that sound like something the power rangers would say???????)anyway I play raigeki waiting for a chain nope sangan gone he gets the effect magician I could smell a chaos anyway mystical spaced the fd and offcourse the 1 the only fake trap so don goes in for an attack goody free card but he was gone anyway I oppend like that so I wouldn’t have to use forceful so I destroyed 1 card witch was a dust tornado oh brother and then delinquent and then forceful well I was spent, down to 1 card in my hand mirror force his turn pot of greed and then listen to this graceful charity to come on he’s bending the rules he dumps of his sinister and thinks his smart by settin a fd monster and a m/t again my turn I draw a nobleman now my turn I activate it nope imperial ordered darn it he was waiting for something I could tell so I attack nothing to loose magicican 2nd one ok pots back his turn he draws and lets out a little grin I thought now what he removes for black luster soldier envoy of the beginning  damn it and this was a good move I think he new I had some deadly trap so he just removed don ok my turn topdecking time yes! Pot ok to great ass cards change of heart and monster reborn he had dumped in his deck a jinzo earlier for delinquent I thought goodie I had a plan so I played change of heart on his black luster and he says wait If I chain my dust tornado to your change of heart you don’t get my luster and I said you cant and I explained it to him so I played monster reborn on jinzo and got his luster then I said ill attack with both pretty predictable then I said ill remove black luster which again he didn’t understand I could do so after the judge said I could he surrendered showing me a hand filled with nothing but a dark ruler and a jinzo of his own and his next top deck was mystical space as where mine was a witch a long one that was………………after that duel  I got some air and it was time for round  5 already!
 
(5th Round)
Marko vs Fat annoying kid
Now this was the little kid that beat my cousin earlier so I was ready to get his revenge for him from what I saw from his deck previously he was running a xyz crap deck so I thought….coin toss he won as usual I always lose the toss he opens with a m/t fd and a monster in def my turn I draw crap all monsters goblin witch lily magician and a tribe bad bad hand I draw and its dark hole ok first magic field clearance I play it imperialed dang! Ok so I set magican and I end his turn doesn’t pay pot GRACEFUL which was the same combo he used against my cousin this kid doesn’t shuffle he just does one quick little shuffle and that’s it well anyway he gets rid of a dragon cannon and some other crap and summons the 1800 attack cannon and flips his fd d.d and attack with the cannon my fd magican ill get back dark hole so he end’s my turn I draw as usual more crap and a turn earlier sorry forgot to mention he set 2 m/t fd anyway I draw a sinister and play dark hole I put witch down and he triggers call of the haunted d.d ok damn no search by the looks of it his turn he plays another dragon thing and reborns one he plays some combo and removes my witch and slams me now my turn I felt uneasy as if I was done for I drew a nobleman now I get one I summon tribe chains his annoying ring I surrendered MY FIRST! LOSS!
 
(5th Round Duel 2)
Ok now there was no room for error I got ready and as usual the kid didn’t do a proper shuffle one lap and it was over I selected to go first this time so off I went my opening was good breaker sinister pot snatch call and nobleman I played pot I thought I had this in the bag trust me I draw a mystical space and cylinder I set sinister and placed cylinder and mystical fd and ended hist turn pot of greed and GRACEFUL CHARITY again I was really pissed the guy was deffenetley cheating but I thought I had a pretty good hand so I continued he dumped a sinister and a shinning angel plays harpies dang I needed those too but anyway he summons the dragon head and lays to m/t fd and attacks sinister ok ill get that back my turn I draw d.d warrior lady ok that’s not to bad I play snatch I thought Id do some damage nope MYSTICAL SPACE the kid rigged his deck badly so ok I set my d.d and set call and ended here comes the same combo as before the combo with the dragon cannons the same combo as in the last duel ok I had d.d set up the effect of this cannon thing is if you discard one card destroy 1 fd m/t he did so ok call is gone and attacked my fd ok remove good clear field I drew mystical ok Ill do that his fd cylinder ok and I attacked with breaker I felt safer now ok he set’s another m/t and a fd monster ok my turn I had nobleman and I drew a storm I used storm darn it imperial ok so I attacked his witch he got out fiber jar his turn he plays reborn on his angel slams into it and gets out some strong defense cannon ok my turn he says he ends so I draw mirror force set it and end and this is where I lost when the newb ended his turn he didn’t tell me that he set a fd monster and I didn’t see it I was so deep in concentration and I go hold on did you set a fd monster and I said you didn’t declare because no matter what move you make you have to declare moves clearly and this kid was mumbling and I go wait I get to make my move since I didn’t see that fd card and he says to late you already ended so me like an idiot I let him go and he flipped fiber his turn he didn’t summon he opens with a cannon  and plays deminsion fusion all I had was dd he played another combo got back all these monsters and I had to surrender it was over my first loss again
 
After that duel I sat there sulking with my deck and trying to understand how I lost I thought ow well win some loose some after the duel I went and saw how vangel was doing he was versing mark one of my friends usually he beats him but the deck was running bad that day it was all over the place so mark won ok I sat down made a few adjustments and was ready for round 6
 
(6th Round)
Marko vs Denny phung
I was happy I was versing one of my friends atleast I didn’t have to be serious well I beat him down pretty quick with lily and all these other combos in the first round mainly I used goblin and lily and pounded his lps
 
(6th Round Duel 2)
This round was similar to the first accept it took al little longer he got black luster on the field and attacked twice which was ok because I had in my hand a snatch steal which I used to take his black luster and attack with him and jinzo for the game sorry denny.
 
Well that was fun I thought now the best I could come is 8th or something I was pissed I wanted to kill that annoying brat Ill get my revenge on him now onto the final round
 
(7th Round)
Marko vs Friendly guy
This guy might I add beat my friend mark in an earlier duel with a combo with scapegoat and united we stand anyway I went second lost the toss grrrrrr he set 1 m/t and summoned a thunder nyan nyan ok my turn stormed him dark hole and I think I beatsticked him for a while with Gemini after a couple of slams with Gemini soon after I got witch and a don on the field and he surrendered
 
(7th Round Duel 2)
Ok now this guy really wanted to make it to the nationals really really bad and I thought ok that’s sounds fair enough but I didn’t want to loose I had already qualified to regionals earlier but it was now just to get a good ranking ok he went first and opened with 2m/t and his own luster in attack mode my turn I had all monsters again breaker goblin lily jinzo nobleman and a sinister ok so I played goblin and attacked cylindered ouch! Ok his turn snatch summoned a witch and slammed me I had nothing I drew a magican I surrendered
 
(7th Round duel 3)
Ok now I was mad ok I went first confiscation forceful got a good insight to his hand and I had planned out his next move I got rid of his harpies and his raigeki I summoned witch set ring and ended his turn nyan nyan in attack mode and he set his I believe it was a bluff because the only magic he had in his hand was his united we stand he set that don’t know why so I ringed his nyan nyan and it was my turn I had jinzo so I played the mystical that was in my hand and I was right united and I summoned jinzo by sacing witch and getting out my tribe hist turn he set a monster and ended I played Gemini and I attack the fd with Gemini and it was magican got back his united since I returned his raigeki to his deck he summoned his luster dragon #2 and equipped and attacked my jinzo fine by me I drew premature burial and I new I had it in the bag got back jinzo summoned tribe he was gone he gave up
 
After that I made him feel better by saying that if people here have already qualified for regionals and are in higher spots then him they have to give there spot in regionals to him since they have already qualified this guy was coming 5th at the time so I was sure he would qualify he went away smiling
Finally it was over and it was time for the boosters I came in 4th not bad better than my last regional’s I got 11 boosters I think, in one was a manticore of darkness! That I really badly wanted at the time and some other crap like necrovalley and a mrl relinquished well now on to the prop’s and slop’s
