Greetings, folks. Most of you know me as Jin, a former Administrator here. I'm not up to taking Administrative work. However, I am proud to say I have chosen to focus on Articles, and I will post articles for you guys to review. Not only that, I'll post articles about special events.
I am a judge for Konami, I attend Yugioh weekly, and there is a Regionals coming up on the 25th of September. I fully intend on getting my invite and attending 2011 Nationals.
Anyhow. I'll give you a summary of last week's results.
I was playing Chaos Monarchs. (I will not provide a decklist, but I will say this is the most consistent deck in my region.)
1st round: Against fairies
My opponent drew badly both games. I know the player - he's a real strategist - but somehow didn't fit everything in to this deck, unfortunately.
1-0
2nd round: Machinas
I am teching Cyber Dragons, and have a copy of Chimeratech Fortress Dragon.
Game 1: He summons a Cyber Dragon and a Machina, which I promptly scoop up and toss to his graveyard for my Chimeratech. He scoops.
Game 2: Ryko hits both my Cyber Dragons and I don't recover.
Game 3: I attack into Limiter Removal and my Book of Moon is nowhere to be found.
1-1
At this point, I'm convinced I won't even make the top 5, but I play on:
3rd round: Quick Draw
Game 1: He draws terrible, I draw terrible, but I find a Dandylion and start sacrificing monarchs like nothing. He eventually is forced to scoop.
Game 2: He draws terrible again, I draw well, and the duel is quickly over.
2-1
4th round: Machinas
AGAIN I face Machinas. However, this time it seems like I am better prepared:
Game 1: I lie in wait with three Battle Faders, Cyber Dragon and Solemn Judgment, letting him fall into my plan. The game is over in 5 turns.
Game 2: His Machinas overrun my deck.
Game 3: We go into a time situation, 8 turns left. I have a monarch, he has a spell/trap. He draws and can't play, I draw and attack, he draws and sets a monster, I blow it away with Caius but he torrentials. At the 6th turn I have game, though I did have Battle Fader in my hand and had advantage in life points.
Results:
3-1
Overall: 2nd
It was a double tournament tonight, therefore double the prize support. I got three packs of Hidden Arsenal and 3 packs of Duelist Revolution. It's all junk. Meanwhile, teammate who wins one pack pulls Fabled Raven. *sigh*.
I am happy about second, though - it shows how consistent this deck is. Tournament had 15 people.
