Build this deck this afternoon before I head to my grandma's house and finished it there (I brought my staples and binder with me of cause). 1 word: I build this deck 1 day too late.
It was suppose to be a all-monster-deck but I decided to have 3-1 ratio of monsters to spells. Quite balanced I think but would be better with Birdman(Duh!) and Kurokishian.
Still modding this deck and may be able to complete it before next week(which I may go to a tourney .... maybe).
Forgotten to get the Dekoichi and Treeborn from Ah Gan and Rankiba yesterday.
3-2-1 Ratio (40):
monsters(30):
3x Caius the Shadow Monarch
3x Jinzo
3x Jinzo Returner
3x Gravekeeper's Spy
1x Gravekeeper's Decendent
2x D HERO Malicious
1x Armageddon Knight
1x Dark Grepher
1x Breaker the Magical Warrior
1x Dark Armed Dragon
1x Chaos Sorcerer
1x Dark Creator
1x Gorz, Emissary of Darkness
1x Krebons
1x Plague Spreader Zombie
2x Cyber Dragon
2x Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter
2x Dimension Alchemist
spell(10):
1x Allure of Darkness
1x Emergency Teleport
1x Foolish Burial
1x Future Fusion
1x Overload Fusion
1x Heavy Storm
2x Pot of Avarice
2x D.D.R
With the 3 Birdman, this deck would be a beast. Without it, its just some random stray cat.
See what I can do in the mean time.
...
Before I forgot, I mistaken the date for the Kepong tourney (Dandelion one) I posted. It should be on the 29th, but there would be a tourney on that day, just no Dandelion.

May 15th Kepong tourney result!!
Today, I went to the Kepong locals for the first time. First impression : needs Air-conditioning.
It was a prize pool system. And about 20 people participated.
Deck used : Flamvell Cats (which I began to LOVE quite much)
1st match : VS Dark Syncro - some Kepong guy
1st duel - Controlled with Snowman Eater and also Flamvell.
2nd duel - Almost got myself with Oppression (although it did me good). 3 darks in the grave, DAD in my hand. I draw, HEAVY STORM!!
OO
1 - 0
2nd match - Anti-META - a friend with I so inconveniently forgotten his name.
1st duel - Rai-oh and Burden of the Mighty got me.
2nd duel - Snowman Eater FTW.
3rd duel - Snowman Eater did his job again and again and finally, again.
XOO
2 - 0
3rd match - BF - Carl Lim
- for those of you who don't know this, me and Carl has a history of almost always meeting in the 3rd match and then always ending with victory in his hands.
1st duel - Quite a good hand, until he activated Dustshoot at the start of my first turn, reviewing my 2 Bottomless and he send my Snowman Eater back...
2nd duel - Snowman Eater and Flamvell controlled the duel and my 2 Airbellum knock out cards from his hand slowly.
3rd duel - Open with Black Panther, Cold Wave, MST, Mind Crush and Mirror Force. Okay? I set both traps, and he Dust Tornado-ed Mind Crush and summons Stardust ...
XOX - still can't break the curse ...
2 - 1
4th match - Magician Lock-down - I don't know this guy
1st duel - Snowman Eater again.
2nd duel - He had 2 Crusader of Endymion out and beat the crap of my Airbellums(which I pulled 1st turn). Change the tide by drawing Dog and Sync into Stardust. BRAIN CONTROL!!
3rd duel - Black Panther copied his Grave Keeper's Decendent and blow his 2 back rows. DAD comes out and stayed there for the game.
OXO.
3 - 1
So, basically, there was 5 "3 -1"s and only 3 can get into the top 4. So, basically who ever wins this round is in.
5th match - GB - the Indian guy which had ONLY played GB for 3 years!!
1st duel - He starts, and obviously build up a freaking wall of backrows.
2nd duel - I start and took in with me by siding in anti-GB sides.
3rd duel - I pulled Oppression 1st turn set it and keep on destroying his GB as he has Forest out and MUST tag or die. The game was at stale mate for at least 10 turns with neither of us can do anything. He Icarus-ed Oppression and my faced down Book of Moon. And I was still barely able to keep a lead. Pulled Cat, and activated it, he was like "FU*K !!" and I found out the only things in my deck was 2 Ryko, trying to be a good sport, I special summoned them and deal 400, cutting him to 1100. He summons Laquari and starts to have the edge again. I set Snowman Eater. He used a 2nd Forest but got his Laquari blown up. Summons Equeste (me at 800 and Snowman Eater in Attack due to Forest) and rams into Snowman, I try to chain it to Book but he Solemn-ed it.
XOX - 3rd duel was a great one, for some reason most of my good duels ended with me losing.
3 - 2
so, out of 20, I placed 5~6-ish, why, the owner never told us our ranking aside from the top 4, and being 1 of the 2 "3 -2"s, I should be 5 or 6.
Results :
1st - Zack - BF
2nd - GB Indian - and of cause GB
3rd - I don't know this guy and did not see his duel, so naturally I don't know his deck
4th - Carl Lim - BF
For some reason, both 1st and 2nd placers did not take Red Eyes Darkness Metal which was the most expensive piece on the table. Maybe because of the fact that it might get reprinted?
According to rankiba(shop owner//partner of shop owner), next week there would also be a tourney, confirmed prizes would be Dandelion, the others are not comfirmed. This is on Saturday.
Next Sunday, Carl Lim organizes a prize pool tourney at Sungei Wang. The prizes are the same as last time (the Sin cards).

"Do you know I have 3 dragons behind me?" Says Quickdraw Syncron
MY EXAMS ARE OVER!! NOW ALL HELL CAN BREAK LOOSE FOR ALL I CARE!!
and to add to my joy!! I was stuck in this big jam for like 2 hours ... damn...
BUT! During the 2 hours of boredom, I try to think about deck ideas, which most of them are crap. But this one actually works to some degree (of cause, being someone who doesn't have alot of expensive cards, I proxy!!)
Quickdraw Twilight(40):
monster(35) :
3x Quickdraw Syncron
3x Wolf, Lightsworn Beast
3x Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter
3x Lyla, Lightsworn Magician
2x Celestia, Lightsworn Angel
1x Lumina, Lightsworn Summoner
2x Judgment Dragoon
2x Caius, the Shadow Monarch
2x Debris Dragon
2x Dandelion
2x Mystic Tomato
2x Lonefire Blossom
1x Spore
1x Sangan
1x Card Trooper
1x Plague Spreader Zombie
1x Dark Armed Dragon
1x Chaos Sorcerer
1x Treeborn Frog
1x Necro Guardna
spell(5):
3x Solar Recharge
1x Charge of the Light Brigade
1x Foolish Burial
side(15):
3x Battle Fader
3x Dimension Alchemist
3x Flamvell Fire Dog
2x Flamvell Magical
2x Sky Scrouge Norleras
2x Phantom of Chaos
extra(15):
2x Drill Warrior
1x Nitro Warrior
1x Junk Archer
1x Junk Destroyer
10x Generic Syncros(and YES! Its Trishula-able)
The idea is very very simple, using the milling ability of Lightsworn to set up your grave for Quickdraw Syncron and Drill Warrior. And, you don't even need to be afraid of dumping your monsters cause, in case you haven't notice ... A lot of BOSS MONSTERS!!
Strategy varies from Judgment Dragoon SPAM to Drill Warrior recycle loops!!
Have fun guys!! For me!! Its 2 weeks of FREEDOM!! (heading to buy Wing MG and HI-V HG maybe tomorrow!!)

The Red-Eyed Dragon that Brings Chances!!
Well, I have an exam (Maths for Engineering) tomorrow and I find that posting and building decks in general, cools my head. Helps me relax as the two test last week help proof this.
Most of you know I have Red Eyes Fetish. And that I never have a Red Eyes Deck for :
1 : Red Eyes Darkness Metal is such an expensive card.
2 : I can never get the perfect build.
3 : I don't have any PG (Phantom God) Red Eyes.
Solution to problem :
1 : Rankiba's shop holds a weekly tourney and Red Eyes Darkness Metal is in the prize pool. So, if I can win 3 weeks in a roll... I have a playset!! Simple plan, Not-that-simple to achive.
2 : Well, one can always try ... my holidays are coming and I can test the deck as much as I want.
3 : The DL (Duelist Legacy) Parallel Ultra rares have to do the job in the mean time... STILL LOOKING FOR THEM THOU.
Really Really wish that SD19 comes with Red Eyes Darkness Metal, as that almost confirms that I would bring Red Eyes to the Worlds Qualification Tourney on 27th next month!!
This is still at testing phase (AKA alot of Proxy), and I don't know how this deck would look like when the new SD comes out!!
monster(21):
3x Red Eyes Black Dragon
3x Red Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon
3x Red Eyes Wyvern
3x Totem Dragon
2x Light and Darkness Dragon
2x Masked Dragon
2x Delta Fly
2x Debris Dragon
1x Dark Armed Dragon
spell(9):
1x D.D.R
1x Future Fusion
1x Foolish Burial
1x Heavy Storm
1x Giant Turnade
1x Burial from a Different Dimension
1x My Body as a Shield
1x Brain Control
1x Lightning Vortex
trap(10):
2x Bottomless Traphole
2x Dimension Prison
1x Mirror Force
1x Torrential Tribute
1x Starlight Road (TCG)
1x Solemn Judgment
1x Call of the Haunted
1x Birthright
side(15)
3x Blue Eyes White Dragon (surprise surprise)
3x White Stone of Legend
3x Card of Consonance
3x Trade-In
2x Royal Decree
1x Return from a Different Dimension
1st duel your opponent takes on Red Eyes, if you see fire-power is needed, you switch it to Blue Eyes.
Why is this ? Cause I believe an old saying in YGO history :
The Blue-Eyed Dragon brings victory. The Red-Eyed Dragon brings possibility.
In today's term :
Blue Eyes can beat the shit out of anyone (that's true) and Red Eyes has a lot of potential (Dark, Dragon, Normal monster to name a few).
In terms of Potential to summon this Freak :
...
1 Question : How do you make a deck when you lack some cards?
A. Get all the cards whether you may or may not need, then make your perfect build.
B. Proxy and test duel, then get the cards.

I'm an ALIEN. I can't understand HUMAN because I play YGO
or at least thats what I heard from a friend. This shit went on the Guang Ming newspaper(some Chinese paper) last week (I think).
Some kid (15) went crazy and told his parents that he is not human. Parents went to some locals and blame the hobby(YGO of cause) for driving their son mad. Or something like that...
According to my friend, the whole Penang State YGO player is looking for this guy, and on YGO logic they will CHALLENGE HIM to a duel and the loser gets sent into the shadow realm.
So, basically this kid whose played YGO for 3 years gone stupid/retarded and some locals at Penang is no longer helding locals(or so I heard).
Penang Duelist, please fill me in as I don't have a clue of all this.
...
Explain to me again how playing YGO would make you think that your an ALIEN?
...
The above are mostly based on my imagination of the limited info I have!!

I'm BACK!!
I officially scrap the idea of Jinzo Gadget due to the fact that I need cards and sleeves for my new best friend!! Quickdraw Syncron!!
Yes. You all know him pretty well right. I use to think him as an OK card, but seeing him in action really is a whole new different thing.
1. Consistency - For a monster that needs to ditch something to come out, this guy is freaking amazing in terms of consistency. So, far, he has never been a dead draw and almost always I can turn the tables around with him.
2. Effectiveness - Needless to say, this guy surpasses even the grand-daddy of all the syncron, Junk Syncron. Road Warrior suddenly become a very powerful card because of him.
3. EPICNESS - What can I say? He has a pistol!!
Now, I move on into my point. Basically this here is what I build. I haven't tested it out against the really hardcore decks yet (blame my exams...). Pointers please as usual!
Freeze!! I HAVE A GUN (40):
monster(28):
3x Quickdraw Syncron
3x Caius the Shadow Monarch
3x Mystic Tomato
3x Dimension Alchemy
2x Battle Fader
2x Level Eater//Level Stealer
2x Cyber Dragon
2x Dandelion (I don't have any, so proxies)
2x Lonefire Blossom
1x Spore
1x Treeborn Frog
1x Sangan
1x Card Gunner
1x Plague Spreader Zombie
1x Dark Armed Dragon
spell(10):
2x Pot of Avarice
2x Soul Exchange
1x Heavy Storm
1x Giant Turnade
1x Cold Wave
1x Brain Control
1x Foolish Burial
1x One-For-One
trap(3):
1x Call of the Haunted
1x Limit Rebirth
1x Return from a Different Dimension
Extra(15) : I haven't really figure out how all these cards fit. Please bear with me!!

Count Down to May 2nd Tourney : 1 DAY!
As the title suggested, tomorrow will be a HUGE tourney (no where near SJ's 2500 of cause) for us Malaysians, and being a holiday today, you can imagine how big the response would be.
Before entering the main topic, sorry for the lack of post this week cause my modem is HIT by Lightning (maybe I did something to Zeus?) this monday, and I'm currently enjoying a cup of Green Tea Latte at Starbucks (reading... for my exams this Thursday...)
Personally, I have a competitive deck ready (2 in fact as my Jinzo Gadget deck I build this week proofs itself capable of matching Syncro Cat in Speed and consistency). I have all the side deck cards ready and being a holiday today means I can make final adjustments to my deck before the big day. Only problem is : I'm not going ...
Ha ha ha!! I guess all that effort I just wrote had gone to waste eh. Why ? As I said, I have my finals later this week and I don't wanna let this tourney mess this up.
BTW. This post here. Its EPIC.
