deck use : E HERO Fusion

1st match vs Curan Lockdown Burn?

1st duel : Table 1!! I open first and summon Airman and get my Allius. Then I fuse Airman with an Ocean in my hand and set D Prison. He starts with a Magician's Valkyria and 3 back rows. Then he activates Hidden Spellcaster Village. At this point, my hand has a Allius, Miracle Fusion and Gemini Spark. I summon Rai-Oh and tried to attack, he flipped Gravity Bind. Next turn, he summons Kuran and 2 more back rows. I drew and summon Forestman to thin my deck for an Ocean. He slowly burns me and set more monsters and fill up all 11 of his slots. I finally drew into Ocean, summon it and ended. He ended and I took the damage, I summon Airman and he discard Effect Veiler. My life was running VERY low, to my last effort, I flipped Snowman Eater to destroy ZERO and go all out. He then Solemn's it.

2nd duel : I drew RaiOh and summon it and set a Warning. He summons Valkyria which I Warnings, and he sets 1 and activates Massager of Piece. I summon Ocean and keeping my Airman for next turn. He summons some spellcaster and activates the field. I summon Airman, took out his Massanger, and attack. Then he could only set monsters until I beat him up.

3rd duel : He starts with 4 backrow, a spell caster and Village. I can do nothing in responds as I have no monsters nor traps in my hand. Drew Airman next turn ... but he flipped Screen of Red ...

Never expected this deck coming. Nothing in my side works, really need to have a couple of Dust Tornados in here.

2nd match vs Gemini

1st duel : I start with Airman and gets Allius. He opens with Burden and have his Dark Valkyria attack me. I set Forestman and ended with a set D Prison. He summons the 1900 warrior and attacks into my wall. I grab Poly, summon ZERO and Allius, attacks with ZERO which he Karma-Cut me?(Why? I'm losing a monster and he loses 2 monster and a card at hand, Phoenix Gearfried). He then top decks Monster Reborn, and targets his Gearfried, attacks and I use Gemini Spark ... EPIC. Miracle Fusion next turn.

2nd duel : I sided in 2 Compulse and 2 CyDra, which I drew immediately. He starts with the exact same move. I Sp CyDra and he flips BTH for some reason (he has Burden...). I set Snowman and ended. He attacked into it then summon the 1900 warrior. I just stall out a few turns and then fuse into 2 Shining, and 2 ZERO with him a clear field. But he has Fader. He tops a Dark Hole, but I get Airman and Allius back to hand. I use the Gate to summon my last ZERO and Shining and go for game.

3rd match vs Machina Gadget

1st duel - he starts with ramming a DD Warrior Lady into my Stratos, I let it cause I have Parallel World in my hand. Then he sets 2 backrow in which he lost his Mirror Force to my MST. I summon RaiOH and got BTH (Perfect!!). He thens summons Gearframe gets a Fortress and ditch his gadget and fortress to summon it, attack for damage and equip GearFrame to Fortress. I summons Ocean and activates Super Poly into Gaia. Attacks and his in top deck mode and he pulled a Force out of his ass. I then summons Allius and Spark it drew Mirror Force and set. He drew Force AGAIN, but I have Mirror FORCE this time. I summons Forestman and Parallel to Shining for game ... BUT I miscalculated and he has 200 left. He pulled a Gadget and attacks my Forest ... MEH ...

2nd duel : He starts with 3 backrow and summons Gearframe, I Veiler it. I then summon Airman which he Veiler it, LOL! So, I ram Airman into Gearframe and set 3 to mimic his move but lost Solemn Judgment to MST at the end phase. He then tops a Fortress//Force and sends both for his Fortress which I have a BTH. I summon Allius which he tried to BTH but I have Spark. He thens Yugi'ed into Swords of Revealling Light. I set a card and ended. He tops Force AGAIN. I Top CyDra!! And Fortress Dragon dealed with his remaining life.

4th match vs Infernity

1st duel : He starts with ramming Archfiend into my Airman and sets 4 to the back. I MST a random 1 and hit his One-For-One. I set Snowman. His other Archfiend attacks into it. I set Forest and BTH. He summons Mirage, and sarc for his 2 Archfiend ... BTH!! He searches for Infernity Force and set it. I summons Allius which attacks and he used D Prison, I use Spark on his Force, but he chained it to destroy Forestman and I can't draw ...(I forgot)... He just set a few cards. Then I use Hurricane, which he chain 2 Forces to my Allius and ZERO, which I chained a Spark to his backrow and drew 1. I fuse into another ZERO, deal 2500 damage, Forest another 1000, his 1900 left I use Super Poly.

Set Mirror Force//D Prison and his ended with Inferno, sending the remaining things into the grave. He sets all of his cards and summons Mirage, targeting his Archfiend and Necromancer, I chained a DD Crow to his Archfiend. His Necromancer came out and he summons his Beetle and 2 more. Sync into Catastor but was met with Mirror Force//D Prison. I summons Allius, he chains Torrential, but I had Spark and blew his last card away. He tops into a Necromancer, gets his Beetle, apparently doesn't syncs due to my facedown or something(BTH BTW, good call). I use Miracle into ZERO, get pass his monsters and attack for game.

I summon Allius but attacks into Dandelion!? He then summons Debris but I chain Super Poly into Tornado before Black Rose could blow my field. I lost it somehow but was able to pull Raioh next turn.

Machina Gadget

The deck that reign supreme(before Frogs became top) last format in Malaysia or maybe ... KL!

The deck didn't had anything robbed from them.

BUT this deck has been MIA since the start of the format in Gamers Arena.

Why?

I mean, aside from that noob-of-a-kid that runs it with Machine Emperor, no one runs the damn deck.

I guess the spirit of Machina in KL died the moment Cookie sold his deck ...

Contrary to believes, X-sabers never took off after Extra Pack 3. I guess the lack of Cat and Darksoul really is defining.

The only ones I saw running the deck is Kelvin and me (while Lam and Nick did plan to play it, but meh ... they give up I think).

Another deck that seemed to completely disappear from the format here is Infernity, but this I can see why. Your paying that enormous amount of money for an already not broken deck which got his Gun 1/3'ed.

While I see a few Scraps here and there, it is still another one of those deck that has enormous potential, but just didn't took off. Saw Fei Hung and Michael playing, and thats it.

Dragunity is gone too ... Arkylus ...

Surprisingly, I see the number of GBs and Lightlord INCREASING. I mean, the cards we have to deal with them increase, but why?

Weird things are happening at Gamers Arena ... Weird things ...

I can see it now

a very crowded Gamers Arena this Sunday ...

well, this is a reply to Andrew's post in case y'all don't know.

If I'm going (50/50 cause its a Sunday), I wanna face Michael again ASAP!! ... not really ASAP, but I wanna duel him!! Me and Draco Equites WANTS REVENGE!!

Since Andrew brought this up.

Cause this is a trap heavy format, AntiMETA's going to win?

YES and NO!

Cause a duel is like flipping a coin, 50% would be META another 30% would be Antimeta, the last 20% goes to scrubbers with bad decks and E HERO players(which in turns is also a scrubber).

Card that would be VERY important in this tourney!!

No, not Road. Not Duality.

Its Royal Decree!!

Its true!! Who ever has a deck that can fully play around this card and is fast will be taking the win. This does not include noobs with good decks.

I accidentally build a quite stable X-saber deck maining 3 Decrees. It works very well, only problem I have with it is that it needs 3 Duality's to work well ... Oh!

My X-saber currently is undergoing a VERY VERY weird construction, look around the web and you won't find a build quite similar!!

Working ... not really ... I mean, not as good as the Decree build at least.

Duelist I wanna duel if I happen to participate :

Michael, Alex and of cause Fei Hung!!

People I really don't wanna face :

Nick, my team mate cause I hate his Naturia ... A LOT ...

Unless I get triple Duality (which I could since I sold my Rainbow Neos deck for rm300...), this decklist won't be played AT ALL.

The proxy duels are fun thou.

Frozen Fitzgerald

Let me start by introducing just how good a card this is.

Dark Tuner + 1 Beast non-tuner? How bout we rephrase that as Junk Syncron + Ryko?

Awesome card is awesome, 2500 for a Junk Syncron free summon is good.

And its effect is not half bad, not awesome nor broken but good!!

I can see people playing decks like JnD or just about any deck that uses Syncron and Ryko as the engine using him at 1.

He helps fill the grave too. 1 more Dark for DAD or Chaos Sorc?

How bout Dandelion?

Spore and Glow-up Bulb are nice too!

Jet Black Zumwalt is another very good card.

With Dark Bug, this card can be summon easily, problem I have with it is that Insect ain't really that popular in the game right now ... EXCEPT LEVEL EATER!!

Syncron deck's 2 new best friends?

RE: HOLYLIGHT AKA THE WHITE BALL

As titled, this is a reply to the post on Accel Scrubbing.

Am I the only one who thinks that Holy Light//Consecrated Light is a total waste of time, afford and side deck space?

I mean, in a Infernity or TeleDAD heavy format, yes, I get this.

BUT, now, its not, at least not here(hence this may only be viable here in KL).

The only Dark deck that is ruling the competitive scene is BF//Blackwings.

Yes, Light slows them down, but stopping them dead in their tracks? Far from it.

Like the author said in his post, to fully play this thing, Royal Decree and My Body is sided in as well, I get that point, BUT I don't have that space and I need my traps.

So, the conclusion is, IF your traps can do you the job, stick with them.

I sold mine last weekend to support this point!!

What if Infernity or another Dark deck becomes Top meta next?

Don't count on it, cause to me, Earth is the new Dark.

And being the player we all know Konami is, they would be boosting them more now, not that I have complains for it.

Lets see. Since DREV, we got 2 very powerful archtype, Scrap and Karakuri(okay, its not as powerful as Scrap but ... its good and a few more GOOD cards will broke this deck), both which are Earth!!

SO, my point IS!! Don't waste your money on that Light Ball that looks like a lone testicle. I mean, rm40 for that piece of shit? Selling 2 may earn me the money for a Pot of Duality(the most epic OVER PRICED card of them all!!)

I'm just saying.

If you wanna take down BF, Chivalry is a better AND cheaper option that give you outs to GB, X-Sabers and Perfect Declarer(before Decree comes out), at least to me it is. And it doesn't look like a lone testicle!!

Again, I'm just saying.

My opinion on the I think overhyped ... not really, but over priced card!!
