Haven't been in any tourney for a month, went to Sungei Wang to sell some stuffs, Soliel and Ah Yong didn't show up ... what ever.
deck used : Flamvell Cats
Match 1 vs Plant OTK - Ah Lim
1st duel - He rushed but failed to finish me off. Brain Control and Rescue Cat FTW.
2nd duel - CyDra was out and he had nothing to take it down.
OO
1 - 0
Match 2 vs Frog Monarch - Uncle Micheal
1st duel - I dropped my Solemn when I draw my opening hand, he was so cautious that he lost his game.
2nd duel - Dustshoot him and and saw 2 Testes, 1 Dupe Frog, MST and Soul Release. Sends frog back. Normally, this is a bad move but I wanna gamble with this. I won the bet as he tribute his Treeborn for Testalos instead of Soul Release, summon Goyo and controlled from there.
OO
2 - 0
Match 3 vs Dragunity - sorry, I can't remember his name ...
1st duel - 3 Gravekeeper's Spy up my hand.
2nd duel - 3 Dimension Prison main is a good idea. That and also Elefun.
3rd duel - Me with an empty field with 8000 life and he with his Dragon Valley and 5400 life. He hesitated but summons Laevatein and attack twice. But decided to pull off a little (he shows me he has another card at hand but can't take me out anyway, so he decides to save it for later), but I have Cydra and Brain Control at hand ...
XOO
3 - 0
4th Match vs BF - Zack
1st duel - I was at a dead position, nothing in my hand can change anything, only thing I can do is to just block the attack off. Sets Spy and he has Blast attack into it and drop Kalut. He then tunes his Blast to a Blizzard into Bronaic and discards Vayu. I topped deck Rescue Cat and then activates Brain Control!!
2nd duel - Sets 1 back row and 1 Spy, his Sirocco can't get through and he has 2 back row. Cold wave, Rescue Cat, and control from there.
OO
4 - 0
5th Match vs Machina - Cookie
1st duel - Misplay and lost. Tried to go for total destruction but got MST.
2nd duel - Cyber Dragon and Crevice.
3rd duel - I have a lot of set cards and keep on removing his cards.
XOO
5 - 0
ranking : 1st!!
Yes!! Finally a 1st since a long time ago. Prizes aren't really good but that doens't really matter!!

Scrap!! Oh Yeah!!
Aside from the ridiculously stupid priced Scrap Chimera, this deck is actually pretty affordable!!
Can you do just as well without the Chimera!!?
NO!!
you just can't, so if you don't have 3 Chimeras ... either waste your money on 3 or just give up on playing Scrap as it won't be as remotely close as good ...
The 2 new Scrap monsters Soldier and Falcon are stupid if you ask me ...
I mean, while Soldier is a lv5 and you can easily bring it back with the other Scraps, its a dead draw, and I rather bring back Golem for a Scrap Dragon or Twin Dragon with Goblin or Beast.
Falcon ... is well ... a Treeborn Scrap ? It comes back so you can use it as a shield I guess ... but why? I mean its not bad ... just not that good. I rather bring back Goblin in Def when my Syncros got raped and look at my opponent's face. Well, thats just me I guess ...
The spell card, Oil Zone is good. Not broken and not entirely awesome but good. If this came out 8 sets or 2 years or before CRMS, it would be totally awesome. But now ... a Scrap bad imitation of Infernity Gun ? Not really but thats what my first impression was.
Scrap Crash is a very very dangerous card to play ... I mean it could be very very good in some times but we know how Malevolent Catastrophe is right now ...
Why am I suddenly discussing on Scrap today ? Well, its just cause I pulled a Scarp Dragon yesterday and have both Scrap Dragons. So, I felt like it.
Proxied Chimera and tested the deck out, my thought was : "no wonder people are willing pay RM100 for this shit..."
Its awesome. But I really won't spend such an amount for a fun deck ... yes, as powerful as it is. I don't think Scrap has reach Top Tier material. While being VERY VERY powerful in the casual play term, it still has a couple more sets to go before it can take on a HUGE tourney.
But Shriek just proved me wrong I know!!
...
Looking forward to playing GBs again, looking for cheap singles so PM me if you wanna sell me some cheap GB cards!!

Nothing much but I've nothing better to do ... And CAT!!
So, I skipped my trip to my grandma's house since Lam's in Africa and went down to Toysbar to get some cards. Something tells me that Ah Yong has been there as the Starstrike Blast packs have already been "raped". Oh well ...
Dueled with some friends there.
Didn't duel my primary Toysbar friend Keok since I saw this BF deck and my attention quickly rushes towards him. Cause Dueling BF is FUN!!
Apparently this guy is a beginner I think cause he made SUPER obvious move like summoning Breeze and set a card or switching Shura to attack when I have Stardust.
I was like ... "Icarus .. ?" he goes "!!? How you know you got Sharingan ah!?" or like "Kalut ...", "OMG!! HOW YOU KNOW!!".
My other friends was in the same reaction as he was.
Another guy came and he was like saying "BF is too STRONG to be if he has Bronaic!!" I was like "WTF!?" which BF deck doesn't have Bronaic ... Anyway this guy is a much better duelist than his friend. But just couldn't accept the fact that my Rainbow Neos deck is stable.
I was like 1st turn Rainbow Neos for 3 duels. His friend was like "OMG!! So Stable!!" he was like "Its luck!!" and I was like "yeah ... sure ... what ever"
The guy sold me Super Allius for rm15!! and 2 more rare ones for 3 each!!
Another guy was so desperate for E HERO Tempest, he had to trade his Ultimate rare Scarp Twin for it!! YES!! 3D GET!!
No tourneys this week and apparently my ranking drop out of top 20, or has it ...? we'll never know as it only shows up to 17th and I was 19th last time!!
...
I know I've been here, but I'll like to know from you guys just where do you think Rescue Cat would be next format.
I mean, we all know its a good card ... I mean Awesome ... I mean Too-Good-To-Be-True-and-Legal card, but would it get banned next format.
We still haven't get the XX-sabers from TCG yet thus we may never know how OMGWTFBBQ it is in the TCG region but is it just another mediocre card in the OCG.
NO!! Even without the XX-saber spammings and stuff, this thing still win games for you. Its been Konami's favorite son since Syncro Awakening !! And it has gone from useless//slighty usable beast card to WTFAREYOUINSANE!!
Seriously, does this thing needs to go? Or is Konami just too kind a company to hit this kitty with a hammer (it does have a helmet for that, so just do it!!).
While being a Cat player myself, I can't say that this thing isn't banned worthy, but would it be banned, that is the question!!

I Finally found a topic worth Blogging!!!
Its almost August and its time where we try to predict the banned list AGAIN.
Around this time of the format you'll see considerably lesser people building decks and buying cards (especially the really expensive ones), cards from new sets are free from this curse as there is no way of them getting hit at all.
BTW, I scored a perfect for my Fluid Mechanics test!! OMG!! First time in my uni life I score something above 3/4 of the total and it was a perfect!! but end up I have to -1 marks due to the fact that I missed one step at the end ... F' ... I got the final answer right didn't I?
Back to topic.
With no real extremely broken cards this format, there are still contenders of who might go.
The most banned worthy card of the format is ... Brain Control !! Why ? Splashable into ANY deck, turn the duel around for a 800 LP cost? How many times have you top deck this and made the duel yours or how many times have you experience getting this awesome field and lost because of your opponents brain control ...
The other card I think may hit the banned hammer is Rescue Cat. Although being a Cat player myself (Flamvell Cat to be exact), I too think that this card is too good, especially in a slow format. You could argue that drawing into it is harder now as its at 1. But I've always, I mean ALWAYS turn the duel around and even to the point of striping my opponent bare with this mean kitty. Not to mention the OTK it brings. While not so obvious in the OCG thanks to Mr. Limited-Target-No1. In the TCG, this kitty is one hell of a beast.
Now, lets go to the limited section shall we.
Dandelion, while only came off this part of the list a format a go has to go back into it. Its just too good a card. We don't see its amazingness too much while it was at 1. Thats a great miss. At 2, it just bring too much OTK decks to life. It must go back.
Trishula aka Mr Limited-Target-No1. While it doesn't end games like DDB did. It just took all hope away from you. Seriously, tell me a card that can turn the tides when you have 0 hand-field-grave and starring down to 3 of them ...
EASY!! Draw into Infernity Archfiend searches for Beetle into 2 more. Tune to Goyo, Snatches 1 of them, then into Infernity Death Dragon and blows up another one!! HAHAHAHA
Opponent : Brain Control ...
Scrap Dragon might come here as well. Its not a broken card but its definitely an awesome one. While theres just a small chance on this, I guess it might be possible especially since its just a 1 card summon boss monster.
Now to the semi-limit!!
Lets see ... Kalut and Vayu ? And maybe even Icarus ? While ? Since Crow pack is coming out its almost sure they aren't killing BF, but make a couple of spaces so that the 5 new cards can fit in!! Maybe ...
Caius the Shadow King!! Awesome-piece-of-SHIT!! Its a monarch, it won't get hit ... well, Raiza got limited once and Dirg just came out ... I'm seeing a high chance of it getting hit here. Along with his 2nd best friend, Battle Fader!! Broken? No ... Annoying? HIGHLY!!
Machina Fortress and Gearframe. They're top tier and they are badass. Anymore points you wanna throw in? They came from the same SD ? Is that even a valid reason .... ?
No longer on the list : I can't think of anything except for maybe United We Stand ... Thats really just the one card that might get off.
Why ain't there any Frogs one my prediction list ? Along with some other decks. Its not that I don't think they are broken. Its just that I'm not familiar with those decks and I'm not going to judge something I have almost no clue of.

300th POST!!
when is Osiris coming out again, December?Sad, parents gave me that "you should not go out but study" face when I ask for lift to the bus station since my car has some problems (getting the middle school treatment AGAIN). So, I most probably can't make it to Karlim's Trishula tourney (sorry bro!! Its not that I don't wanna support you but I still live off my parents ... )
Haven't been in any tourney since last month's nationals ... Why does this always happens to me ...
Aside from that. Posting a decklist that has been ask by Kuroyuki-San for the past month. My current Koaki Meiru deck.
Note that I play a semi Aggro build that also focuses on striping my opponent down.
I say this deck has a way against ANY deck aside from FTKs, but it doesn't counter them perfectly ... heck, it doesn't even does that nicely. And its main weakness is still lack of solid monster removal, but I really don't know what to do with it at the moment aside from Smashing Ground ...
Why isn't Overclock in Extra Pack 3 ? While there are quite a few Koaki Meiru in that set, I don't find them useful in my build, and the new card from Starstrike Blast ... its useful at times. Thats it.
monster (19):
3x Koaki Meiru Crusader
3x Koaki Meiru UrKnight
3x Koaki Meiru RookLord
2x Koaki Meiru Berzark
2x Koaki Meiru Powerhand
2x Koaki Meiru Sandman
2x Koaki Meiru Boulder
1x Koaki Meiru Guardian
spell (12):
3x Iron Core of Koaki Meiru
3x Burden of Mighty
2x Book of Moon
2x Shrink
1x Fissure
1x MST
trap (12):
2x Bottomless Traphole
2x Dimension Prison
2x Dust Tornado
1x Mirror Force
1x Torrential Tribute
1x Solemn Judgment
1x Nega-Ton Corepanel
1x Call of the Haunted
1x Core Reinforcement
side (15):
3x Koaki Meiru Drago
2x Cyber Dragon
3x Trap Hole
3x Imperial Iron Wall
2x Skill Drain
2x Royal Oppression
Extra :
3x Chimera Tech Fortress Dragon (but I only have 1 for the moment)
side deck explanations :
Drago : Bye Bye BF, Infernity and his lot. While this guy is a chore to bring out and keep out, you control the game from there.
CyDra : Self Explanatory
Trap Hole : Main threat of this deck is BF.
Imperial Iron Wall : Trishula ? Frogs ? Not to mention that Koaki Meiru is weak against DD decks.
Skill Drain and Oppression : Self explanatory.
...
Starlight Road would be awesome in here, but I don't have the cash to get one.
Good luck to anyone who is aiming for that Trishula today!!
Thats all for today!!

Freaking Tired!!
Just came back from school after me and my mates played badminton with only ME stupid enough to play for 3 hours straight.
Fluid Mechanics test today, consists of 15 % of the total, I say, fak it, why did I even bother reading the last weekend, its an easy 15%, if my calculator and my eyes don't betray me.
Enough of the stupid stuffs!!
Thoughts on that Equipment Cats that was on Neux's video. Quite cool, especially Daemon Beaver. But concept wise, its very similar to Lam's Unicorn deck. While I DO, admit that its a lot more stable(from my 1st impression) and has more tricks up its sleeves, its basic gameplay is almost identical.
I still don't get why people main Super Polymerization in E HERO fusion based decks. Siding 2, yes, I understand perfectly, or maining 1 and another in the side is fine as well. But 3 in the main is a bit too ... I mean, the biggest portion of the current META game is well, DARK.
Or maybe its just Malaysia, but still ...
2 copies of Concentrated Light in E HERO fusion is a GREAT idea. Well, that or Snowman.

Karakuri ... Oh Yeah!!
Next week I'm gonna get myself a new deck and YES!! its Karakuri!! No idea whats Karakuri? Its Mechanical if translated. But thats not the specifics you want I guess. Its a new archtype from Star Strike Blast and they are machines!!
We needed more Machine archtypes!! seriously ... we do ...
Enough with that, I find the Karakuri cool cause their names and effects. 1 thing most Karakuri have in common is that :
1. Their names are in numbers. Well, they ARE robots, so, manufacturing codes?
2. When they are selected an attack target, they are switch into defense. Oh!
3. They have their own Mirror Force thats quite easily activated unlike Koaki Meiru's. And ITS A BOMB!!
4. They MUST attack if possible, but they are (generally) quite small.
Off to printing and test playing ...
Wa-Lah!! ... or maybe ... wA-LA!! ... or WAALA ... how do you spell this ...?
Karakuri Control (42):
monster (16):
2x Cyber Dragon
3x Karakuri Warrior 6318 (beat stick)
3x Karakuri Merchant 177 (searcher for Karakuri CARD)
3x Karakuri Soldier 236 (floater)
3x Karakuri Ninja 339 (snowman eater with 1200 attack)
2x Karakuri Officer 248 (lv3 tuner)
spell (12):
3x Karakuri Castle of Elements (Karakuri's Deformer Map)
3x Karakuri Disassembling Manual ( Karakuri's Six Sam. United)
3x Solidarity
1x Pot of Avarice
1x Limit Remover
1x Mystic Space Typhoon
trap (14):
2x Timed Karakuri Bomb
2x Karakuri Resident
2x Bottomless Traphole
2x Zero Gravity
2x Dust Tornado
1x Torrential Tribute
1x Mirror Force
1x Trap Dustshoot
1x Solemn Judgment
Extra (15):
2x Karakuri Shogun Burei
2x Scrap Dragon
1x Scrap Twin Dragon
7x Generic Syncro
1x Chimera Tech Fortress
Play style :
Not unlike Machina Gadgets but they are a lot more tricks up this deck's sleeve. But the fact that the boss is not as powerful as Machina Fortress is a minus.
Lets see, they have their own Searcher AND Floater.
Their own tuner that can change its own battle position (with its position changing effect).
Their own Snowman Eater that CAN attack and CAN get rid of Stardust!!
... and a beatstick which is sorta useless aside from the fact that its a beatstick.
For spells, they have their own Gear Town and Six Samurai United. Which SPELLS advantage.
And for traps, they have their own Mirror Force and their own Crystal Raigeki (which is not exactly easy to activate).
...
For better builds, we would have to wait for this deck to come out next weekend, if its good, I might use it in next sunday's Trishula tourney. Or maybe I'll stick with my original plan of Scar-Red Nova ... will see.
We needed more Machine archtypes!! seriously ... we do ...

1x Torrential Tribute
1x Mirror Force
1x Trap Dustshoot
1x Solemn Judgment
Extra (15):
2x Karakuri Shogun Burei
2x Scrap Dragon
1x Scrap Twin Dragon
7x Generic Syncro
1x Chimera Tech Fortress
Play style :
Not unlike Machina Gadgets but they are a lot more tricks up this deck's sleeve. But the fact that the boss is not as powerful as Machina Fortress is a minus.
Lets see, they have their own Searcher AND Floater.
Their own tuner that can change its own battle position (with its position changing effect).
Their own Snowman Eater that CAN attack and CAN get rid of Stardust!!... and a beatstick which is sorta useless aside from the fact that its a beatstick.
For spells, they have their own Gear Town and Six Samurai United. Which SPELLS advantage.
And for traps, they have their own Mirror Force and their own Crystal Raigeki (which is not exactly easy to activate)....
For better builds, we would have to wait for this deck to come out next weekend, if its good, I might use it in next sunday's Trishula tourney. Or maybe I'll stick with my original plan of Scar-Red Nova ... will see.

This is NOT a duel puzzle ...
and the below situation is NOT a duel anymore, but a Freaking ONE-SIDED Genocide.
Player A :
Nothing on the field and in hand. Top deck MODE!! ON!! Anything you want in the grave and you can pull anything cause your Judai.
Player B :
Stardust x2, X-Saber Airbellum, and Bronaic on field.
Hand size : 2 (Snowman and Con. Light)
Backrow : Solemn Judgment, Dark Bribe, Traphole, Dimension Prison, Evacuation Device
How the hell you gonna turn the tables around (I dare you to do it Judai without cheating!!)
Not a duel puzzle, just what happen just now in a duel with me being the one with Flamvell Cat.

Junk Syncron
No matter how I look at it, its gonna be a key part in both Shooting Star and Scar-Red Nova based deck. Its just too good.
Armory Arm equip to both of these dragons are deadly. 4300 attacks twice ? O.o. Scar-Red Nova over 9000!!?? O.O
Thats it for today!!

Double Post!! With good reasons!!
Long since I double posted, but I just went to check out something from Kuroyuki's blog and found a decklist on felgrand dragon (my top 5 dragon of all times).
I had this in mind for quite some time, but didn't have the chance to build it due to budget (in the OCG, REDMD is not mass reprinted and Trade-In is one expensive common).
Lets bring back some very very old school cards!! Tyrant Dragon!!
This bad-ass relic from a distant age of YGO may not be much in the game now which is based on fast summons and stripping out your opponents resource. But who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks?
Welcome 2 new cards from the year 2010!! Dragonic Tactics and Dragon Canyon!!
These 2 cards makes summoning this ancient dragon easier than you can summon Stardust ... well, not really ... but ... what ever!!
Dragonic Tactics is such an over looked card. While 2 Dragons sacked is a really heavy cost, summoning this beast out is worth every penny.
Lets move on to the deck!!
Tyrant of the Dragon Canyon :
monster (20):
3x Tyrant Dragon
3x Dark Horus Dragon
3x Red Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon
3x Torem Dragon
3x Debris Dragon
3x Red Eyes Wyvern
2x Masked Dragon
spell (15):
3x Dragonic Tactics
3x Dragon's Canyon
3x Trade-In
2x Super Rejuvenation
1x Monster Reincarnation
1x Mystic Space Typhoon
1x Heavy Storm
1x My Body as a Shield
trap (5)
1x Mirror Force
1x Torrential Tribute
1x Return from a Different Dimension
1x Starlight Road
1x Call of the Haunted
Enjoy!! Off to doing my assignment!!

Enjoy!! Off to doing my assignment!!
I was bored while I should be doing my assignments . O.o
As the title said, yesterday night, I came home from school at 10:20, after my badminton session and because my mom has to go to her friend's mom's funeral ... then we need to go to Jusco to get chicken for my sis as her friends are coming over ...
I should be sleeping or doing my assignments or studying for my tests (2 of them next week) but no, I have to connect my bloody printer to my PC and print out Formula Syncron and Shooting Star Dragon ... call me an ace student!!
Since I'm so eagerly waiting for Scar-Red Nova, something crossed my mind "What if I got Shooting Star in my box instead ..." so, to see what this baby can do, I decided to make a deck out of it. WARNING, I MADE THIS DECK LATE LAST NIGHT.
Shooting Star Turbo (literally) :
monster (22):
3x Junk Syncron
3x Turbo Syncron
3x Tuning Ware
3x Kinka-Byo
3x Dekoichi the Battlechanted Locomotion
3x Cyber Valley
2x Cyber Dragon
1x Plague Spreader Zombie
1x Sangan
spell (18):
3x Tuning (printed!!)
3x Machine Duplication
3x De-Syncro
2x Double Summon
1x 1-for-1
1x Allure of Darkness
1x Pot of Avarice
1x Foolish Burial
1x Giant Turnade
1x Heavy Storm
1x Future Fusion
Extra (15):
3x Formula Syncron
1x Shooting Star Dragon
2x Stardust Dragon
2x Junk Destroyer (I don't have this)
1x Trishula. Ice Barrier Dragon (I don't have this)
1x Black Rose Dragon
1x Brionac, Ice Barrier Dragon
1x Magical Android
1x AOJ Catastor
1x Armory Arm (I don't have this)
1x Chimera Tech Over Dragon
side (15):
2x Chimera Tech Fortress Dragon
1x Turbo Warrior
1x Goyo Guardian
... traps!!
Whats with me and non-trap decks ? Compare to my Scar-Red Nova build, this deck is more based on gaining advantage and owning my opponent in one turn.
Pot of Avarice is in there so that we can recycle the Tuners when the deck count is low to have Shooting Star Dragon attack more ... well, you get 3 tuners and you win.
Basic play of the deck :
Get Tuning Ware into the grave (via some method) -> Junk Syncron + Machine Duplication -> Junk Destroyer -> De-Syncro -> Trishula -> ... -> Shooting Star -> OWN!
Note !! This deck has not been tested yet!!

The King and The Devil - Scar-Red Nova -
Epic title. No other word for it.
Star Strike Blast comes out in about 2 weeks time and Fak Shooting Star Dragon, I'm with Scar-Red Nova all the way!!
Been testing my Scar-Red Nova deck for a day now (with proxies of cause) and find this deck incredibly fun to play with. And Scar-Red Nova is a beast!! You summon him and you can basically look at your opponent trying whatever he has to try to take it down.
Concept of the deck is something like BUSTER mode decks (summon the syncro quick and set Buster mode), only thing different is that nothing is there as a dead draw (which the /Buster is usually).
Have A LOT of tuners so that you can syncro with high consistency and freaking power up Scar-Red Nova. Tuners of choice, Petit Immato and Junk Syncron. Useful as always. Others may include : Deep Sea Diva, Krebons and Plague Spreader Zombie.
Throw your backup plan out of the window as this deck basically wins once Scar-Red Nova hits the field.
Dark Creator is awesome in here and have something non-dark to take care of Concentrated Light and his lot!!
Tragodia and Gorz can be syncro fodders in this deck as well!!
And heres the deck list!!
monster (30):
3x The Dark Creator
3x Caius the Shadow Monarch
3x Junk Syncron
3x Petit Immato
2x Cyber Dragon
2x D HERO Malicious
2x Krebons
2x Mystic Tomato
2x Armageddon Knight
1x Spore
1x Dark Armed Dragon
1x Gorz the Emissary of Darkness
1x Tragodia
1x Sangan
1x Plague Spreader Zombie
1x Mind Master
1x Treeborn Forg
spell (10)
2x Instant Fusion
1x Heavy Storm
1x Giant Turnade
1x Foolish Burial
1x Brain Control
1x Mind Control
1x One for One
1x Emergency Teleport
1x Reinforcement of the Army
hey!? Where are the non-tuner lvl 2 or lower monsters(aside of Frog)for Junk Syncron? Did you left them out? Sorry. But there are NON!! Why? Cause I don't wanna ruin my focus.
Why Frog in there? Just so that I can go for Formula Syncron and then into Shooting Star if I want to.
Junk Syncron is good in here cause I can always pull another Tuner out for the Double Tuning. The floaters fill the grave FAST so that Dark Creator can bring back Red Daemon or even Scar-Red Nova fast.
TRIVIA : When I build this deck, I didn't know Mind Master COULDN'T release a non-psychic. But since he is still a lvl 1 tuner AND can be special summon via Teleport. I left him in there.
If you think Scar-Red Nova is scary!! Then what about Scar-Red Nova with Arms Aid? O.o
