Tournament Report on World Championships 2010 Singapore Qualifiers!

Yes I'm back! Apparently! And I know its been awhile since I posted, for around 5 to 6 months? Well I've also been MIA-ed for YGO and been trapped in the world of warcraft(which I'm actually starting to get pretty bored inside of it lololololololol) And so... YGO has perked up my interest for it again~! Okay to cut it short, below are the results of my tournament yesterday =D



Deck Used: Junkyard Assault A.K.A Commonly as Dandy Warrior

First round VS Javier (Gladial Beasts)
OXO

First round it was due to constant Synchro Summoning of Junk Destroyer and for him to be without and Gladial Beasts on his field for me to destroy his set cards which was one [Gladial Beast Chariot] and another trap which unfortunately I wasn't able to recall.
Second round I was pretty much getting controlled with all the Gladial Beasts driving their Chariots around banging all my [Debris Dragon] and [Junk Synchron] here and there =(
Third round was the Win with the [Lightlord Monk Eileen] that Techy gave me for me to kick a few direct attacks at my opponent hoho, ending the match with [Wicked Emperor Gaius].

With that, I passed the eliminations!

Second round VS Sorry I really can't Recall your name >.< (Machina Gadgets)
OXO

His build of the deck was too much of a control deck, with so much [Fissure] and [Smashing Ground]s running here and there, I just couldn't bear to sacrifice my [A.O.J Catastor], so in the end I had to keep summoning [Junk Destroyer] to try to get a lead in field card advantage. But it could also meant that he had a bad hand, since my [Junk Destroyer]s usually died to [Fissure] and [Smashing Ground]s instead of the traps. Second Round, Nothing to say, [Royal Oppression] and [D.D Crow] owns all =D Third Round, Early lead with [Drill Warrior] and [Dandelion tokens] gave me free attacks because all he had set down was [Bottomless Traphole] till I decided to [Junk Destroyer] his reverse cards, forcing him to activate it before I summon [Wicked Emperor Gaius] to target itself, dealing a final 1000 damage to his lifepoints for the win! Great match!

Third Round vs Xiao An (Black Feathers)
XX-

This first round with Xiao An teaches me one thing, NEVER EVER farm too much with [Drill Warrior]! Even with 4 tokens trying to protect me against a one turn kill, it is still possible! So when there is a chance to destroy 3 - 4 cards on the field with [Junk Destroyer]...Just destroy the whole world!
Second round, [Royal Oppression] rules! Enough said!

Overall, thanks for the learning experience Xiao An!

Fourth Round vs Bixuan (Cat Synchro)
OXO

First Round: Early lead with [Junk Destroyer] is nice!
Second Round: Again... all my [Royal Decree] were milled away~~~~ So [Royal Oppression] was there to kill me with his one standing Synchro monster there!
Third Round: [Royal Decree] rocks! [Wicked Emperor Gaius] for the win too!

Overall, thanks for the great match Bixuan!

Fifth Round Vs DSummon
XX-

Gah spit on [Gadgetron Dragons]!!!!! LOL!

Overall very nice match with Dsummon. Now I am going to be dreaming of [Gadgetron Dragons] every night =(

Sixth Round vs Yulong (Fish)
XX-

Guess I run out of luck, totally bad hand for both rounds, but managed to survive long before I acutally died lol

Deck Review: Junkyard Assault MK 3

Right after a long delay, its time for update! This is a new and improved [Junkyard Assault] that I made last time. So below is the decklist for the new and improved deck =O. However this time, it uses one of Fudo Yusei's Tuner monster called [Quick Synchron]! So let it roll!

Deck Name: Junkyard Assault MK 3

Deck Size: 40

Monsters: 22

3x Junk Synchron
3x Quick Synchron
1x Debris Dragon
1x Zombie Carrier
1x Jutte Knight
1x Tuning Supporter
1x Level Stealer
1x Dandelion
3x Bolt Hedgehog
2x Tradgoedia
1x Envoy of Hades - Gorz
1x Lightlord Hunter - Raikou
1x Lightlord Summoner - Lumina
1x Lightlord Monk - Eileen
1x Lightlord Magician - Laila

Magic: 12

3x Charge of the Light Brigade
2x Solar Exchange
2x Pot Of Avarice
1x Reinforcement of the Army
1x Golden Sacrophagus
1x One For One
1x Giant Trunade
1x Cold Wave

Traps: 6

3x Raigeki Break
1x Torrential Tribute
1x Limit Reverse
1x Call Of The Haunted

This deck is quite simple to play with actually, if you have [Charge of the Light Brigade] on this first turn, use it to search for [Lightlord Hunter - Raikou] to either send it to the graveyard or do anything with it to send it to the grave. Why? Its because it is a good target for either [Junk Synchron] or [Debris Dragon].

Although this deck only has 2 level one targets to be special summoned by [One For One], there is usually [Pot of Avarice] to shuffle back monsters like [Tuning Supporter] or [Level Stealer](usually you would just want to shuffle back [Tuning Supporter]!) in order to use [One For One]!

Neuxcharge said that my [Jutte Knight] is really standing out in the whole deck! LOL! But the main reason for this tuner to be inside the deck is for it to be searched by

- Reinforcement of the Army
- or special summoned by [Road Warrior]

Simple as that!

And I learnt that [Tradgoedia] is skill! Having it to use its effect to change its level to 2 is simply amazing! Why? Its because of [Junk Warrior] that will increase its attack by all the level 2 monsters on the controller's side of the field. So how about having a high powered attack [Tradgoedia] (provided if you have the hand size) to power up your [Junk Warrior] for you!

Furthermore, this deck is highly grave-dependent in order to begin the process of self touching!(Baha's very phase and move). If your graveyard already has [Bolt Hedgehog] and [Tuning Supporter], and by luck you also did drew a [Pot Of Avarice] into your hand. Most of the time you would be self touching til you have at least 3 synchro monsters onto your side of the field!

But if you versus last boss decks such as [Dimension] decks. I think its pretty much a scooping game! However, if you could last long with all the [Raigeki Break] coming into your hand and allowing you to use them. You might just pull through!

In the previous tournament that got me 5th place in using this deck. I learnt one lesson!

ALWAYS HAVE [GIGANTECH FIGHTER] IN YOUR EXTRA DECK!

Ok thats it for today's update =D

Tournament at Khatib on 6/12/09

Right guys, another update since like almost 7 days ago. Today's update will be on the Khatib's weekly tourney that I've manage to attend because I had off on the day =D. I didn't win any prizes but ok, at least I got into 5th place after not attending any weekly tournaments for such a long time! So below are my matchups.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Khatib Weekly Tournament on 6/12/09
Deck Used: Dimension Gladial Beasts
Format: 3 round Swiss and then Elimination

First Match Vs Bahamut84(Junk Blade Deck)
OO- = Win

I was pretty lucky when Baha didn't had the right cards to do a FTK when he started first, which allowed me to set up my field to try to prevent the FTK from working. So yes! It was plainly luck! Which resulted in extreme hatred from him for the whole day at Khatib T_T.

Second Match Vs Clarence (Secret Deck, Not sure whether he wans it to be revealed or not lol)
OO- = Win

Okay I'm quite luck in that sense too, Clarence told he that he made a wrong move or not I would have dieded pretty badly =O. It all thanks to him letting my field set up for one turn. So ya, I pretty much won the above 2 self touching decks by good luck! =X

Third Match Vs No One
- - -

Since I've already won 2 matches in a row, I do not need to play the third match lol!


Fourth Match Vs Bye
- - -

Luck was with me! Those with 2 wins would need to pick a random card, if the card picked is a magic, he or she will proceed to the next round immediately, so ya. I picked the magic card =D


Fifth Match VS Joseph (Zombie Synchro)
XX- = Lose

Looks like the luck had all been used up! Died cause when I needed monsters, no one came to my rescue, when I needed magic and traps, nothing came! So yes, luck fully used up! By the way my deck only had 10 monsters! Could be the reason due to them not coming to rescue me lol!


So total Results = 2 win 1 lose = 5th place but still... SCRUBBED! More practice!


Alright, will update again in a few days time =D Till then again! Hohoho!

By the way guys, don't forget about the team tournament held next week, information is up at the new section on the right hand side of the blog. For more information, click on the link there =)

Deck Review: The Shining Zero

Alright as promised on what I had written on my tagboard, today will be an update for the weekend! Today's content will be on a new deck that I've just tested it out today. It isn't as fast as a normal fusion Summoning deck that Bahamut84 from duelingdays built. So it would actually need more improvement to try to be more competitive next time( thats why it is called "MK I")
Without further a due, below is the decklist for [The Shining Zero]

Photobucket

Deck Name: The Shining Zero MK I

Deck size: 40

Monsters: 13

1x E-HERO Airman
1x E-HERO Prisma
1x E-HERO Ocean
3x E-HERO Another Neos
1x E-HERO Voltech
1x E-HERO Sparkman
2x Swamp King
3x Honest

Magic: 15

3x E - Emergency Call
2x O - Oversoul
1x Reinforcement Of The Army
1x Polymerization
3x Miracle Fusion
1x Heavy Storm
1x Future Fusion
3x Dual Spark

Traps: 12

1x Holy Barrier - Mirror Force
3x Hero Blast
2x Bottomless Trap Hole
2x Trap Stun
2x Dark Bribe
1x Solemn Judgement
1x Cry of the Living Dead

In conjunction to the decklist, here is a explanation of [E-HERO The Shining]'s effect for people that do not know.

Photobucket

YG06-JP001
[E・HERO The シャイニング]
[E-HERO The Shining]
Attribute: Light, Type: Warrior
Effect Monster, Fusion, Level 8
ATK 2600/Def 2100
1 [Elemental Hero] Monster + 1 Light Attribute Monster
This card cannot be Special Summoned except by a Fusion Summon. This card gains 300 attack points X the number of [Elemental Hero] monsters in your out of game pile. When this card is sent from the field to the graveyard, select up to 2 [Elemental Hero] monsters in your out of game pile and add it to your hand.


Right how this deck works is pretty simple!

Step 1: Summon [E-HERO Prisma] and throw either [E-HERO Sparkman] or [E-HERO Ocean]

Step 2: Activate [Miracle Fusion] and fusion summon either [E-HERO The Shining] or [E-HERO Absolute Zero] depending on which material did you send to the graveyard.

Step 3: Smack your opponent!

However the above doesn't really work against a [Eatos Beat] deck that uses cards like [Dimension Fissure] and [Macro Cosmos]. As those cards will kill your grave and make you be unable to use [Miracle Fusion] to fusion summon. [Royal Impregnable Fortress] also does the same thing too. So watch out for them!

Another card that is totally skill for this deck is [Super Fusion]! As it uses your opponent's monsters as well to fusion summon for your own fusion monster! Greatly competitive against decks like [Lightlords] that has a ton of Light Attribute monsters for you to steal to fusion summon out your [E-HERO The Shining]. Stealing any of your opponent's Earth or Water Attribute monsters will also result in a fusion summon of [E-HERO Gaia] or [E-HERO Absolute Zero]. Best of all is, after [Super Fusion] is activated, no other cards can be chained in response to this card. So nothing will be able to negate this card's activation(unless its an on-going effect and does not require activation) and [Royal Oppression] will not be able to negate this card either.

In any case, more improvement will be done once I have received my [E-HERO The Flash]!
More next time! Cya guys!
