Yugioh Championship Series:

Duel Academy


Hello and good day to everyone! The countdown to one of the biggest event over ALL KCVDS communities has once again started, Welcome to YCS Duel Academy #2

For those of you who don’t know, YCS are the Konami-sponsored IRL tournaments that take place in North America. This tournament will follow all pertinent Konami rules which means:


Deck Rules:

1. March 2011 ban list is in effect:

Listed are only the CHANGES

Forbidden Cards 「禁止カード」:

Goyo Guardian「ゴヨウ・ガーディアン」
Cold Wave「大寒波」
Mass Driver「マスドライバー」

Restriction Cards 「制限カード」:

Black Feather – Kalut the Moonshadow「BF-月影のカルート」
Book of Moon「月の書」

2. You must PM me with your full deck list including Side Deck and Extra Deck. You are allowed only 1 deck for the entirety of the competition. Deck lists should be divided into categories of Monsters, Spells, Traps, Side, and Extra. SEND ME YOUR DECK LIST, NOT A PICTURE OF YOUR DECK LIST.

Tournament Setup:

1. There will be a number of initial Swiss System Rounds, where each round you will be paired with someone who has won the same number of matches as you. The number of these Swiss Rounds will depend on the final number of competitors for the tournament.

2. After the Swiss Rounds are completed, the people with the Top 16 scorers will proceed to a single elimination tournament. At the beginning of this tournament, all of the deck lists of the Top 16 will be posted. Yes, this means you will automatically know what your opponent will be using against you EXACTLY.

3. All pairing for both halves of the tournament will be made using CHALLONGE.com There is a possibility that you may play the same person more than once during the course of this tournament.

4. All duels are match duels. You will play best 2 out of 3 and are allowed to use your side deck after the 1st and 2nd games. If you believe that your opponent is abusing KCVDS by using an "infinite side deck", PM me with the cards he sided and I will tell you if those cards are actually in his deck list. It is grounds for DISQUALIFICATION to use cards other than those in your submitted deck list!!

Registration:

Please include the following information in your registration:

Code:

    KC: (your KCVDS name)
HAM: (your hamachi name)
(your time zone)


Time Zones will not factor into pairings. They will be displayed next to your name to make it easier for you to find good times to contact and duel with your opponents.

Again, please note that along with your registration you are
REQUIRED to PM me with your FULL DECK LIST
. If you do not do this by the time the tournament begins you will be disqualified.

Since we want this tournament to be as big as possible, I will not be setting any exact dates for end of registration. Instead, I will just wait and see when it feels like no more duelists are entering. At the most, this will take 2 weeks, however registration could end sooner than that if we get a bunch of applicants all at once and then very few register after that.

Prizes:

4th Place Prize:
500 DP

3rd Place Prize:
1000 DP + Userbar + Dorm Upgrade

2nd Place Prize:
2500 DP + Userbar + Title (if desired) + Dorm Upgrade

1st Place Prize:
5000 DP + Medal + Userbar + Title (if desired) + Upgraded directly to Graduate Dorm

Top 16:

Well after a month and a half of Swiss Rounds,we are now finished with Round 6 and we will now make the cut to top 16. There were many people who were closed to topping but unfortunately, a lot of the matches in round 6 were determined by coin flips, which affect your tiebreaker score. Either way, it was risky even if it was played it. This is however the same system used in Official KDE tournaments, even though it is somewhat flawed. Overall neither you, nor myself can control tiebreakers. The List of participants, and matchups for swiss rounds will be in the 1st post. Now lets get started, first with the top 16 players, and their deck choices, in order from Highest points to lowest:

*NOTE: All deck names are based KDE TCG Terminology

1.Kyosuke Kiryu (Chaos)
2.Mando/Placido (Gravekeepers)
3.firestorm (Miracle Fusion/Gemini)
4.Krat0$ (Miracle Fusion/Gemini)
5.Vongola-x (Miracle Fusion/Gemini)
6.Ryo Bakura (Chaos Plants)
7.Ballin1521 (Quickdraw Dandywarrior)
8.teise (X-Sabers)
9.The_Dutch_Prince (Disaster Dragon)
10.svstar34 (Anti-Meta/Stun)
11.hamouda rajawi (Chain Burn)
12.mysterio_619/Zane (Miracle Fusion/Gemini)
13.Ray1500 (Blackwings)
14.DarkBlackDragon (Plant Synchro)
15.Jimmy-Jaguar/Dark Master (Miracle Fusion/Gemini)
16._BliTz_ (Miracle Fusion/Gemini)


And now for the matchups. Matchups are based on seed number (1-16) and your seed number was determined by your overall placing in swiss rounds. There will be both a live image of the bracket and text matchups displayed:

Ballin1521 vs. svstar34
Krat0$ vs. Ray1500
Kyosuke Kiryu vs. _BliTz_
Mando/Placido vs. Jimmy-Jaguar/Dark Master
Ryo Bakura vs. hamouda rajawi
Vongola-x vs. mysterio_619/Zane
firestorm vs. DarkBlackDragon
teise vs. The_Dutch_Prince

u didn't even mention my name , I want to know where you waited me 7 hours and I didn't show up , I think it wasn't the coin , I think I won by default because I posted more than once that u didn't show up and I waited u on ham 12 hours daily always ask people on ham about you even if u had a problem in ham u could see the posts , and Reborn Shadow do stuff perfectly no one can say a word about him :D

I am GMT +2, and acording to what other peopel say, you are also GMT +2 ( Germany ) so it really shouldnt be hard to catch each other online. But yesterday ( Sunday ) I had been online from like 15:00 til late at night ( 03:00 ) and hadn't seen you all. Maybe you were just doing some sports or something which is natural.

But during the normal week days ( monday-Friday ) I'm online from this moment or a little later till like 03:00 at night. So those are the times you can catch me online at hamachi.


We Finally catched eachother online and got to duel our match, which wasn't a short one.

Game 1: We both have fail openign hands, but that kept the dueling interesting. After go back and forth with chains and summons he managed to win.

Game 2: We both had mediocre openeing hands but I had the beter one I think, also in this duel the control went back and forth but in the end I managed to win.

Game 3: We both had mediocre openings again and started to sack awesome top decks ( both of us ). In the end a slight mistake from TEise cost him the duel.

Awesome Games Teise, and better luck netx time.

2-1 I win.

Ok remember guys deadline is tomorrow, I have box tournaments and college stuff to take care of this whole week so i havent been active

With the issue concerning Placido Vs Dark Master: There isnt enough to go on either of your claims, and there are various instances where you both have claimed the same thing, so heres whats gonna happen.

You will both receive a warning. You will also restart game 2. Both of you must record if possible and/or take screens of the match. This match will also be given a 1 day extension.

When you posted this it was 6:30 Am where I lived so Yeah. And Yeah I'm posting this when it's 3:35am where you live. Since this is your only day to duel, and it's technically tomorrow where you live for me, yeah I don't think this is going to work out.
