Today’s tourney was a low turn-out. We only had six people, which resulted in a lot of byes. There was a lot of Trading going on and I collected an E-Hero Necroshade. Does that guy look cool or what. After about half an hour we got down to business. We run a double elimination here because of the lack of 40 or so players. So it gets a little complicated.




Match # 1 GeneralZorpa Vs. Kevin

I have not played Kevin before, but know that his deck is based all around fiends. No branching at all. Just fiends. He still plays La Jinn. And Kryuel. And absolutely no synergy whatsoever. I helped him adjust his deck after the tourney.



Duel 1

The first duel was pretty straightforward. I had a slow start with a Horus 4 being killed by Archfiend Soldier, but I came roaring back with Exarion Universe, Fissure and Tsukuyomi. My Goblin Attack Force and Brain Control sealed the deal in a win for me.



GeneralZorpa: 8000-7700-7600-6800

Kevin 8000-6200-4400-2100-300-0



Duel 2

No sideing out here. It was pretty much the same story, except that He kept on having Opticlops and La Jinn in attack position to keep me from using my Mystic Swordsman LV 2. Goblin and Horus 6 establish an early lead killing off two of his 1800 ATK fiends. Then Exarion hits for 1800 direct. Horus 8 ends the duel, even though he never attacks. He actually pulls off a good stalling move, setting Jowls of Dark Demise which my Spear Dragon attacked, stealing my LV 8 and buying him a turn. But after he draws, he Scoops.



GeneralZorpa: 8000

Kevin 8000-7500-7000-5200-2400-Scoop



GeneralZorpa 2-0!



Match #2 Bye

This was the first of many byes. I ended up trying to trade a little, but we needed to establish the losers bracket, so it took about 15 minutes.



Match # 3 GeneralZorpa Vs. Drew

I have faced Drew many times before. He runs a warrior toolbox with Mataza the Zapper, and several equip cards. It is really fast and prone to top-decking. Drew kinda runs the Sunday tourney and makes it run smoothly. Thanks to him for that.



Duel 1

I start off well since I go first, and set a Reaper. He doesn’t play a thing. So I summon Horus 4 and attack with him and the reaper for 1900 and discard E-Hero Wildheart. He smashes my Horus and I switch reaper to defense. He hits me with an Exarion and I wince very visibly. I fissure his Exarion and smack him with the Choo-Choo. He plays Swords of Revealing Light and I set a dust Tornado and a Horus 4. I dust his swords, but get clobbered by his Fiend Megacyber. I braincontrol his Megacyber but get drilled with 2200 from Magic Cylinder. I set Cyber Jar and end. He attacks my Jar and he gets all spells and traps that won’t help him and I get Goblin Elite Attack Force, Spear Dragon, and Horus 4. He scoops with a clear backfield.



GeneralZorpa: 8000-6800-6200-5400-3200

Drew 8000-6100-4700-Scoop



Duel 2

This was very interesting. I almost lose several times, but pull through because of topdecks. I start off with a braincontrol sack for Horus 6. And beat him for 2300. I summon Breaker and attack hisfacedown monster, but don’t attack with Horus for fear of Sakuretsu Armor. Nope- It’s Magic Cylinder for facedown # 1. I end. He summons Fiend Megacyber and equips United We Stand. Horus goes down in flames. Then I switch Breaker to defense, and set Cyber Jar. He attacks the Jar, and I get Horus 4 and MoF face-down. He then pulls off a brilliant move. He summons another Fiend Megacyber, then sacks it for Jinzo, then prematures the Fiend back. I lose my monsters. Next move I play MST+Trunade+GAF and attack with Twin Headed Behemoth for game.



GeneralZorpa: 8000-7200-5300-3000-2200

Drew 8000-5700-4100-2500-1000-0



GeneralZorpa 4-0!



I don’t duel for like the next half an hour due to the losers bracket finishing up, so I drift around looking at the games. The Match between Kenneth and Drew was very fast paced and exciting, with much monster removal on both sides. In the end, Drew wins and faces off against me in the Finals.



Match #4 GeneralZorpa Vs. Drew



Duel 1

This duel was intense. With my first ever Bizarro World tourney victory on the line we began.

I started with a direct attack by Exarion. But he followed up with a smashing and DDA direct. I summon Sangan, because I fear a Nobleman. He summons an E-Hero Wildheart. And he attacks. I get Reaper with it, and a load of hurt from that 1500 that Wildheart dished out. I summon Horus 6 via Horus 4 killing Wildheart, and fissure his DDA. I attack direct twice with Horus 6 and set a MS LV2. He manages to summon Jinzo and tries to kill my Horus, but I Enemy Controller him to defense. I Tsukuyomi his Jinzo face-down and kill it with MS LV2 and attack with Tsuku and Horus for game.



GeneralZorpa: 8000-6300- 5600-4100

Drew 8000-6200-6100-3800-1500-400-0



Duel 2

This was a very fine showing by both of us. I Summon Sangan since he has played nothing and poke for 1000. He STILL doesn’t play anything and I summon MS LV2 for a smack of 1900. He finally plays a face-down trap and it’s Waboku to stop my poking. He then summons Mataza the Zapper and slaps my monsters for 400 and 300 respectively. I fetch reaper with Sangan and Premature Sanagan. He kills my Sangan again I fetch Twin Headed Behemoth and his second atatck stops with the reaper. He plays Lightning Vortex to clear my field, sets a monster and equips Mataza with United We Stand. I get nuked for 5800. I play Dark Hole and attack with GAF and only have Brain Control, Dust Tornado, and Horus 6 in my hand. He plays smashing and his topdecked Premature to revive Mataza and attacks for game.



GeneralZorpa: 8000-7600-7300-7000-1200-0

Drew 8000-7000-6000-5100-2800



Duel 3

This was it. The big tamale. Since I was undefeated he had to beat me in another match, but I was still worried. It was a wacky duel all around. He manages to get V-Lord onto the field and attacks my face-down reaper. I Brain control his V-Lord and attack. Discarding Cyber Jar from his deck when I declared monster and a Smashing Ground from his hand. I kill his V-Lord somehow with enemy controller, and attack with reaper again, discarding a Marauding Captain and set MoF. Next move he does nothing but place his hand on the backfield. I attack with reaper, GAF and MoF (got back Enemy Controller) He summons Wildheart with United We Standand kills my Called Breaker. I Fissure his Wildheart and Reaper and MoF attack. He draws nothing and scoops.



GeneralZorpa: 8000-7200-6300-5500

Drew 8000-5700-5400-2500-1900-Scoop

-GX packs come out tomorrow

-Got Archlord Zerato, Horus 8, E-Hero Necroshade, E-Hero Bladedge, two rare Siilvas, VWXYZ Catapult Cannon, and rare XYZ Dragon Cannon (GX packs) from packs and trades.
