Match 1 - vs KinokiGaming
Game 1 I see he's playing Six Samurai when he summons a Kagemusha into a Kizan. I'm like "I'm pretty sure you're going for Barkion" but he goes for Brionac, which is really weird. I'm like "ok" and proceed to faceroll him with a bunch of Synchros including Hyper Librarian into Shooting Quasar.
Game 2 I side in Thunder Kings and Puppet Plants, and I think I thought about siding in Chain Disappearance but decided against it (since Shi En negates all my stuff : X). Siding out a bunch of my Traps (just Mirror Force and Call of the Haunted) as well as my Dualities because Rai-Oh ruins Duality plays. I open with the trololo PUPPET PLANT and proceed to steal his first-turn Shi En, proceeding to tune it with a level 1 Tuner for Iron Chain Dragon. It goes downhill for him from there and I go for a quick Formula Synchron / Hyper Librarian play.
Match 2 - Impo
Really nothing noteworthy; I feel bad stomping a casual with this deck. : x
Match 3 - Firestar
Game 1 I discover it's a mirror match. Cool story. I don't remember too many of the details this game; I think he discarded a Tytannial at some point during it but we basically played a grinding game where I kept losing LP because of my Counter Traps; but I ate some oranges and it was k, getting out a bunch of monsters to beat down on his field after a nuke. (Not sure about the nuke but I THINK it happened...) Long and short of it I was able to control his explosions, but he wasn't able to do the same for mine. I ended with two Doppel Tokens, a Librarian, and an Iron Chain. : v I think I went for a Librarian and an Iron Chain but he killed my Librarian and I made a second one after playing PoA.
Game 2 I sided in my Chain Disappearances, my Thunder Kings, and my D.D. Crows. (Six cards for the mirror match YEAAAAAH) Unfortunately I don't think I actually got to USE any of them... I was holding a D.D. Crow for the duration of the game or something and simply beat down with a two-Librarian explosion into a Trishula. Yeah.
Match 4 - Mr. X
Game 1 - I see he's playing a burn deck. Okay! So I explode without any problems and go for a Shooting Quasar. He activates Magical Cylinder and I negate it. Nothing dramatic; to game 2 we go.
Game 2 - He has more direct burn cards! I honestly don't know where this is going but I explode again for spectacular results. Et cetera et cetera. That's what the deck does.
Semi-finals - Inferno of Tsunami (... I believe that's what it says)
Game 1 - I play a grinding game; I continually lose LP due to Counter Traps, and I have no idea why he didn't simply activate Decree before going off, but he didn't and I was able to resolve crucial Warnings. I Giant Trunade him to explode for game.
Game 2 and 3 - I side in six cards, and get lucksacked by Brionac and a bunch of Synchros both games TURN 3 (BOTH GAMES) ... -_- Lucksacks happen, goddammit Konami, and so on. I was like "..." and then "wat".
And so my hope for first place came to an end. : U
Yeah that's about it. I hope you had fun reading but it was honestly just something I wanted to write up. : v
