 Yugioh Tournament Reports

No. I Am your father... NOOOOOO!!, Local MS Tourney, JasonReeves at the Computer Place
November 6, 2006

It happened. It finally happened. I have faced my demon long enough and decided to take a walk on the dark side. Thats right, I listened to country music. Beware my evil. While I did that I decided to get even more wicked and watched the first season of Dawson's Creek. I cringed like a frightened school girl through every homophobic and cheaters break-up. My soul was stained for life. Somewhere during it all, I blacked out and the evil raccoon living in me awakened, and put CYBER STEIN in my deck. Ooohhhh! Such evil has never before graced my deck during tournament play. So lets see how it did, if you dare.

Anyway, thats the list. Here is how the tournament progressed.

Me vs. Neal - Bumrush Agressive Deck
Neal is a good player, with a decent deck. I started to lose early, but the evilness that I had implanted in my deck came forth and condemned his soul to the pits and perils of hades. It wasn't that bad, but it was a good duel.
Both of us having to work hard to outwit the other. The duel hinged on the last 2 turns. I had a FD Magician of Faith and a Face Up Zaborg in attack.
He tributes for Dark Ruler Ha Des and has a choice to make. He decides to attack the FD and negates her effect leaving my with a face up Zaborg, and him with a Ha Des and a FD Monster and no back field. My turn. I Creature Swap him my Zaborg for his Ha Des and play Stein (I know I could have played Stein and used his effect then Swapped him, but at the time, that didn't seem like a good idea, so back off). I activate Stein and get Cyber Twin. I attacked his FD Magician with Ha Des, Zaborg with Cyber Twin, Cyber Twin to him, and Stein to him. He survived, but only to set another monster which was dispatched by Ha Des and the game was ended by Twin.
Me: 8000-7700-6900-1900-1200
Neal: 8000-7950-1650-0

1-0

Me vs. Tyler - never had time to figure out his deck Tyler is relatively new to our tournament. I don't remember him from before.
I special summon a Cyber Dragon and attack a 4FD backfield. He triggers Spell Binding Circle stopping the attack, but also signalling he probably had no more damage doing or monster killing traps. I set a Nimble Mamongo in effort to defend against an attack. I try out my theory about his traps when he sets no monsters and ends. I summon a Nimble in attack and flip summon the other. I attack with both. He does nothing. I decide to end this next turn. He goes and sets no monsters, only fills up his last Backfield slot. I sumon Stein >:), pay 5000, get out Master of Oz (I don't have an End). I attack with Mamongos first. He does nothing. I attack with Stein. He does nothing. I attack with Master of Oz. He does... nothing. He falls. His face downs were mostly magic cards and bluffs. Bad hand I guess. We let this one live as he was young and needed to grow a little more. A catch and release policy you might say.
Me: 8000-3000
Tyler: 8000-6000-0

2-0

Me vs. Raphael - Cyber Dragon Deck
Raphael (or Cyberdragon Master as he is known on the forum) is a very good duelist with what seems to be limitless resources for cards. His mom is a sweetheart too (got to meet her at the regionals in Jackson). I side board in accordingly and we begin. I got the God hand of hands: Zaborg, Cyber Dragon, Last Will. He T formations with 1 Backfield and 1 FD monster. I summon Cyberdragon. Sac for Zaborg, play Last Will, and go get (not Stein, I feared his backfield) Injection Fairy Lily. I attack with Lily. He plays Call of the Haunted and brings back his Dekoichi. I attack Zaborg to Dekoichi and IFL to him direct. I pay 2000 he takes 4400 and loses his Stein suprise on first turn. He sets one monster and ends. I draw into Treeborn Frog which I play in attack mode. I play Creature Swap on his FD UFO Turtle.
I ram Zaborg through the frog and IFL for game. My deck had done, what it was supposed to do against Raphael. Win and win FAST! Given time, Raphael can win quick, and without any warning. His soul was spared my evil counterpart, but this did not bode well for my next opponent.
Me: 8000-6000-4000
Raphael: 8000-3600-0

3-0

Me vs. Daniel - Adrenalized Beatdown Deck (lots of big scary 4 star monsters and such) I had not used Stein in my last duel, and the evil within me was not pleased. So what did it do? It took over. My will crumbled and my mind was lost to Dawson's Creek loving evil in my heart. He sets one monster and one Backfield. I play heavy, Special Cyber Dragon, Sac for Zaborg, Play Last Will, get Stein, pay 5000 lp, get Twin, attack with all for 8700 damage. I awoke to Daniel's face in a stunned twisted evil pool of bleh. His soul, frozen forever in orange sherbert.
Me: 8000-3000
Daniel: 8000-0

4-0

FINAL
Me vs. Daniel - Adrenalized Beatdown Deck Free from his orange flavored eternal prison of torment, Daniel had clawed his way back from defeat and once again rose to challenge me. hehe Good.
This time would not be so quick and painless. He came out swinging and as though the citric void had empowered him, I seemed to be faltering. But this was only temporary. It came down to a battle of the Monarchs as Stein could not be found quick enough for his evilness to be felt. Zaborgs and Mobi fought for what seemed forever until finally he was open. Both combatants weary from their strugles braced for the final blow. From where to whom this blow was not yet directed, but came it did, from a Cyber Dragon to a weary rival sprawling him to floor, once again into the void never again to see the light of day. Forever tormented in his frozen juicy citric prison. I win. I live.
Me: 8000-6050-5250-4950-4550-2450
Brandon: 8000-6350-4350-2450-350-0

As for all the evil talk, it was kinda fun, but the real fun came from playing. Trash talk taken to a high volume and extreme extent is annoying and childish, as I think everyone at the tournament would agree.

Props: To Mr. Freels as always for holding the tourney.
To Stein for actually working well in my deck.
To Raphael for trading me the Cyber Twin just before tourney.

Slops: None really
Pulled crap from the pack I won, gave it to Daniel.

Until next time, if you ever duel someone and a cold shiver fills your spine as the stench of orange flavored ice cream, beware, for you may be facing me. Believe me, you have nothing to fear, or do you?

Bye from Brookhaven.
