Deck Name: Ha Des' Dark Army Name: Alex Davis Tournament Location: The Fine Art of Baseball (Entry Fee: $10 even, with Duelist Benefits, like trading with the store owner and his single cards in the store, and discounts on packs/boxes/tins, etc.) City and State: Columbia, SC Date: February 19, 2005 # of Duelists: 12 - 14 (can't quite remember this week) Ok, so me and my friend go this week, and I'm able to trade my Pikeru's CoE, ULR Forceful Sentry, and SR Confiscation for MC1 Thousand Eyes and Dark Baltar. I'm using my Fiend deck this week, so it's going to be a lot different. Also, this is the first time I've used a Fusion deck, so thats different too.

MATCH #1: Alex's Fiends vs. Kyle's Chaos Duel #1: He started out using Blade Knight and setting all but 1 of his other cards. I destroy it with Giant Orc causing 200 damage... the only damage I would do this duel >_<. I use some Newdoria's to destroy his monsters, and then use Painful choice to get out Necrofear. He's able to defend against it and Snatch it on his turn. He's able to keep it for a few turns and get the BLS out. I had nothing I could possibly do at this point as I didn't have enough LP's to ram my last newdoria into BLS or anything. LOSS. (I changed out my Morphing Jar and a Slate Warrior for Fissure and Magic Cylinder) Duel #2: I start by playing Orc in attack mode. He plays Tribe and kill it, then attacks for 1600. My turn, I use Heavy storm on his 3 FD cards, he counters with Emergency Provisions, putting him at 10,000 LP's. I kill his Tribe with another Orc. I was able to later get out Dark Ruler and two Orcs, one with CoTH, and use Meta on my Kuriboh, getting out Thousand Eyes. I steal his Spirit Reaper, which targets and destroys it, then my next turn, I take his FD monster with TER, play Book of Moon on TER (which destroys his monster), then attack with two Giant Orcs and Ha Des for the game. WIN Duel #3: He did really good this time, again. I was able to get in two direct Orc hits later in the duel, but that was about it, as far as major damage goes. I only hit him two other times for minimal hurt. He was able to get in hits with Kycoo, Tribe, and Exiled force, before gettign out his BLS. I got Necrofear out, but I had so little LP's left, that I couldn't do anything like ram her into BLS to take control of it. LOSS. So, I'm out 1st round. ****. I'm kinda glad that this guy is going back to michigan, cause he's the only one who uses chaos anymore at the FAB. Everyone got sick of it, so no one uses it anymore. Well, I got my TP5 pack, commons, and went back to duel in a little Tourney for everyone who was knocked out, where you duel and get points for wins/losses, to get a Toon Gemini Elf for the one with the most points. MATCH #1: Alex's Fiends vs. Drew's Scientist FTK Duel #1: Well, I hate FTK decks. But luckly, I was able to get by this time. He summoned Gilasaurus's, but I was able to kill them with a few newdoria's. Then he used Reasoning, and I hit his Catapult Turtle. He surrendered then I think, or the turn after. Anyway, WIN. (3 points) Duel #2: This one was a bit more drawn out, and much cooler. He got MS out and also got out Catapult Turtle later on in the duel. He used Gravity Bind to protect them. I had out Ha Des and newdoria. He used MS to pay 3000 and get some Dark Flare Knights, and only do 2200 to me, cause I used Barrel Behind the Door on one of them. I did 1100 damage to him through something, and then he used his MS again to do 2200 more damage to me. I was at 3600 at this point, with him at 900. Watch this, this is a big move; Then, I drew change of Heart. I played CoH, got his MS. Used his effect to get TER, sucked up Catapult Turtle and attacked under Gravity Bind for game. Nice huh? Well, I though it was. WIN. (6 points) MATCH# 2: Alex's Fiends vs. Andrew's Spellcasters Duel #1: Finally, we face off again. He said that he switched his deck back to mostly Spellcasters now, but it didn't show to well in our match. I was able to get in a shot with Newdoria early on, but he got a 2000 hit on me early on too. next, he got a 2800 hit on me. But this is where it got stupid. Next, I did this really long and complicated combo that didn't really make much sense, but it didn't hurt me, it was just that I played about every card I had, with effect's of monsters. I had out Necrofear and his stolen DD Assailant, Giant Orc, snatch stole his marauding captain, Creature swaped for his Amazoness Swordswoman, then played kuriboh, then played meta for TER, then stole his MC...... darn that was long. Anyway, I only got 1200 off of all of that, so that sucked, but I won like a turn later from him giving up. WIN. (9 points) Duel #2: Did I mention that I was pwning Andrew today? Well I was ^_^. He got a 2500 hit and a 1000 hit on me, but I dominated him with the most powerful Necrofear/Ha Des combo. I pwned him with that half the duel. Then he CoH'd my Ha Des, and killed my Necro, so I Prematured it next turn and attacked for game. WIN. (12 points) MATCH #3: Alex's Fiends vs. Tristram's Wind Monsters Duel #1: He didn't do much here. He got me down to 3450 by using Luster Dragon, and a stolen Ha Des (which I got by playing Painful choice to get while having CoH in my hand after the dragon attack), but I used Ha Des to basically pwn the duel after that. He didn't stand a chance. WIN. (15 points) Duel #2: We actually didn't even get to finish this one because the tourney had to end because the mall closed soon. We didn't hit each other, and I think the only thing I did was play Orc. Oh well, next time. The winner had 21 points, so I didn't get the Gemini, but I didn't have a use for it anyway. Overall, I was dissapointed because I lost to the ever cheap Chaos Soldier, both times to knock me out. I'll be so glad once the banned list hits again. My Friend Devon got 2nd though, losing to the same guy I lost to. I can't really say if I could have done better with my warriro deck, cause I never pwn'd Andrew so hard with that Warrior like I did with my fiend. If only Kyle didn't get all 3 of his monster control cards in the 1st duel, and I didn't make a stupid mistake of picking only 3 fiends for Painful choice instead of 4, then I would have won the 1st round, maybe even the entire thing, as he was the only real threat here today. He DID afterall place 17th out of 180 in a regionals recently. But still, it was chaos, so I feel cheated. There's always next time though. Pro's ------ + Getting TER and Balter for such bad cards, great trade. + uh... nothing else this week >_< Con's ------ - Chaos - not getting anything in my TP5 - losing in the 1st round to a Chaos - not winning a TGE (Wow, this was a bad week for me...)
