I'm Not Dead.

sorry for complete lack of posts - YGO has been practically on the back burner for me lately. Teaching my brother how to play currently - but other then that, i've been dealing with personal issues that have made it hard for me to find time for YGO. I will update everyone within the next few weeks. I will have a detailed sneak peak report after the sneak.

Locals Report 12/12/11

So I went to locals this weekend with a (kinda) rogue deck. I decided to play Samurais this week because A) I think they're still viable ( at least on a locals level ) and B) I would be the only person running them that knows HOW TO run them. Six Sams is my go to deck. It was my first ACTUAL deck I played competitively - I don't think Geminis count Q_Q.

Round 1 -  Nathaniel - Dark World (TGU-less, of course)

Game 1: I Win the Dice roll.  I first turn overextend, because I KNEW I had him from the getgo. She in, Roach, Judgment, come @ me bro.
Game 2: He goes first, sets a Snoww -_-. Apparently he had no discard outlets. I win next turn.

OO

Round 2 - Dan - Chaos BW

Game 1 - I lose the dice roll. He goes first, Sets a monster. I think he's bluffing Ryko, so I swarm into Shi en, GM, 2 Kizans. I attack into a Ryko... Mills a Gardna and another dark. negates my onslaught with said Gardna. Next turn summons a Grepher. With DAD in hand. FML.

Game 2 - I open up with Shi en, and Naturia Beast. He cant recover because he opened up with 4 spells lol.

Game 3 - I forget how, But he opened up stupidly and I lost. Might have had something to do with my hand being GW, 2 United, D Fissure, Reborn, and Torrential. 3 More turns till I would get a monster.

XOX

Round 3 - Jonah - Dark Heroes.

Game 1 - I win the dice roll! I entirely forget most of this match, but I remember him running into a Gorz, and me Somehow winning with like.. 400 LP left. This game Dragged on.

Game 2 - He went first, got a bunch of pluses, made a big Shining, I couldnt get over it in time.

Game 3 - D Fissure put in alot of work here, and when he finally got rid of it, I draw another. Kept removing his monsters. My sided Spirit Reaper made him discard quite a bit, making him drop 1 Miracle Fusion, and His Reborn. After I had beaten him, he showed me his hand. His other 2 Miracle Fusions were there. GG.

OXO

Round 4 - Phillip - Empty Jar ( He's on my team anyways, winner of this made top 4, he gave me the win, even though we played it out. He didnt think he could do top 4 with Jar.)

Game 1 - I win the dice roll! - First Turn Naturia Beast. GG.
Game 2 - He actually gets his FTK off.
Game 3 - First turn Beast. GG. Lol.

OXO

So I make top 4.  with a 3-1 no less.Turns out I'm playing Dan AGAIN!. fuck this time to make him hurt.

Game 1 - Forget how, But I won.
Game 2 - This game was by far the most hilarious thing I have ever seen. He goes first, sets a f/d to each row. My turn. I Swarm the shit out of him without even using my normal summon. Trish, Shi en, etc. He ends up Veilering my trish.. so i was like.. okay. So I Normal Kageki, drop a Hand with him, overlay into Leviair, Crow his Veiler. Steal Veiler, go into Brionac with GM, bounce his 2 cards, swing for game. Turns out his F/d Monster was Necro Gardna. OTK.

OO

I don't end up playing the last game against Scott so we split. Best Pull was.. D Boyz. LMAO. I think he immediately sold it for 2$? hahahaha.



So YCS Brighton is this weekend. My thoughts are similar to LFN's. Nothing new has changed recently, and I expect it to be very much like last YCS. I do expect plants to win this one, or possibly DinoRabbit. Depending on the Pilot. GL to all, and I hope to cover it a bit after its done with.

Quick Update and Thoughts.

Sorry for the lack of posts lately, school/work/ League of Legends has been taking up all my time over the past 2 weeks or so. Just thought I would shoot some quick updates to make this a quick post.

  • Inzecters are stupid, and I think they will break this game worse then tour guide. Seriously hoping Dragonfly/Hornet is ULT/SCR.
  •  Tour Bus of the Underworld. Seriously?
  •  I like the Ra Yellow pack they announced recently. Easier access to common TKRO, Foil CBs/Original Six Sam (FUCKYEAHYACHI!)
  •   Having Problems getting over that Zenmaines? Cydra + Chimeratech. Umad?
  •    Sorry for the lack of local report last week, didn't think it was worth posting since it was lackluster to begin with. 12 people, Shitty pulls. Sure, 2 members of my team made top 4, but we both got wrecked by Scott's team. I tried plants again, but I dont like it when Smog is being played so often in DW. Thinking I wanna rogue out and play SixSams on Monday.  
  •  Wish I had Tour Guides :( Wanna netdeck LFN's Ab0. rofl. sorry bro, but it looks classy, and I would totally play it. Suits my style completely. 
  •  The new Masked heroes look pretty cool, Hope they hit TCG sooner rather then Later.
