Remember the time when Book of Moon and Kulat were at 3? BF was an extremely popular deck as it was both strong and economical.
Now, we rarely see any other BF players other than Vishal, mainly cos the deck lost too much in the March list, and even though the final Icarus was given back in Sept, the deck lost Oppression.
When I say former glory I don't mean tri-Whirlwind into Bomber, more of the Sept 2010 format. Why must BF be brought back to such a state? It is no secret that Konami hates on the birds ALOT, they have never missed a banlist, if you do consider Oppression to be a key card in BF, from Gale to Whirlwind to Whirlwind and then the biggest hit of all, BF is so hated by Konami because they keep owning every single new product they produce.
Just take a look at Sept 2010, Six Sams were messed up! Yet which deck most consistently defeated them? WWBF.
So for those who know me, they heard me say this many times before. Konami needs BF, because every single time they screw up with their product, BF is there to own it.
BF can't own Inzectzors in this state as consistently, give them back it's Book of Moons, don't even need Kulat, and BF will be able to clear this mess that Konami left us.

Why Vanguard shouldn't have a time limit, or at least have better rules when time is called.
Thought I've been quite quiet recently which is very unlike me, so decided to talk about something that kinda bothers me, because I like rulings and all that judge shenanigans and I think this is a problem.
I hear from my Vanguard playing friends who attended AFA, that some pro Vanguard player was eliminated cos his opponent dragged game to time, and overguarded like a total scrub.
For those of you unfamiliar with Vanguard, basically if you take 6 damage you lose. Similar to Yugioh, it is perfectly normal to throw the first few damage for free, just as it is to sometimes eat some big push then counter attack, the same concept remains, as long as your life isn't 0, or in Vanguard's case, damage isn't 6, you still have a chance to win.
When Yugioh is brought to time, the current Turn Player will be sitting on Turn 0, and the game ends when Turn 3 is over. Essentially this means both players are given 2 BPs to do anything. Which usually is rush like dogs and defend like Chinese DotA players. The one with the higher LP at the end of Turn 3 wins.
Not trying to slam the organisers, as I heard they did quite a good job considering it was the first major Vanguard event in Singapore, but I feel such a rule is unfair in Vanguard. Yes in Yugioh, we have people who drag game to time too *ahem Wesley*, but almost every meta deck now has some sort of 8000 board all in that can appear, which is what the players tend to turn to during Sudden Death.
However, in Vanguard, this is not the case, even if your entire board's attacks hit, it is unlikely to be able to deal 6 damage in a single turn, as such, 1 point of damage is much more valuable than even 1000 LP in Yugioh terms. Furthurmore, certain decks rely heavily on Counterblast abilities, which require them to take damage. This puts the player in between a rock and a hard place. If he takes the damage, he may lose, if he doesn't take the damage, he may not be able to win.
More importantly, in Yugioh, where during time we just try to push as much damage as possible, basically overexerting like a newb, it is not necessarily bad playing, it could be a form of mindfucking, making your backrow seem extremely protective to your opponent. However, in Vanguard, overguarding is a sign of scrubbiness and lack of foresight. To add on, unlike Yugioh, where some attacks deal less damage, in Vanguard, 1 point of damage from a 5000 Draw Trigger is as good as 1 point of damage from a Counterblasted Dragonic Overlord.
The problem still remains, though, that in a best of three tournament setting, where the stakes are so high, players should not be given an hour and a half to play out their matches, a time limit must be imposed. Still, this would lead to tremendous overguarding in the final game if both players knew that time was going to get called. They may even Mulligan to get a full Trigger hand of 10K guards, which is even noober than noob.
During the Saturday Econ tournaments, usually we just let the players play it out, best of three, everyone there has time anyway and the prizes are not to kill for. At Ah Soo, it seems they adopt a best of one format, which although may not be the greatest, ensures that the games end on time.
From the above two scenarios, we can see two imperfect solutions to the problem at hand. Let the players play it out, or adopt best of one. While both are full of cons, they ensure the game of Vanguard, in all its greatness, is played the way it's supposed to be played. With skill, epic lucksack, and basic arithmetic.
NOTE: I just got that info from heresay, if it isn't true, well this wall of text talks about why you shouldn't make time limits in Vanguard in any case.

Why Kristya is a BITCH.
After all that crap I think I should start being an autistic geek and start flaming cards, so why not start with the most HATRED-ED card of all!
Why is Daitenshi Kristya a BITCH?
Scenario 1 - Agent player opens with Vahalla Kristya.
SCRUB
Scenario 2 - Agent player summon Earth search Venus, next turn you get rid of Earth. He show you Striker, Venus, Kristya.
SCRUB
Scenario 3 - Big monster deck show you Trade-in, Kristya, Monster Reborn.
WTF SCRUB
Scenario 4 - Striker jump Werewolf OK, double sack Kristya
SERIOUSLY MAN WHAT IS YUGIOH.
Scenario 5 - Declarer Kristya Royal Decree
ZOMGWTF I THINK I SHOULD QUIT
Next question I have, why is Oppression banned and Kristya not?
Rationale for banning Kristya and not banning Oppression
1. Your opponent can use it.
2. It does not have 2800 ATK.
3. It doesn't take back the Honest for you.
4. It is a Trap card, which has to be set first.
5. It can easily be gotten rid of.
6. It doesn't go back top deck when it dies.
7. It has a cost.
8. It is GENERIC, hence BALANCED.
9. Cannot stop Gorz, Trago, Fader.
10. MUCH nicer artwork.
I would say more, but Kristya might sue till I piss or whatever the hell that guy said.
Bottomline: Kristya is a BITCH ANGEL.

Chain Disappearance vs Weight Over
As we all know one of the new cards in ORCS has caught the attention of quite few. It is none other than Weight Over A.K.A Shine Ball murderer. Compared to the commonly used Chain D. , Weight Over has several pros to it, as well as several cons.
Pros of Chain D. :
Potentially hits the hand, thus reducing opponent's hand advantage.
Can be used upon your own summon
Nicer artwork LOL.
Gets rid of Level 3 or higher engines.
Pros of Weight Over :
Can be used upon Venus second Ball.
Can get rid of Tuners such as Earth and Glow-up Bulb.
Cons of Chain D. :
Loss of target with cards such as Book of Moon.
Must be used upon Venus first Ball for full advantage.
Cannot get rid of the first turn Earth.
Not worth it to get rid of generic tuners such as Glow-up Bulb and Spore, as people usually only play 1.
Cons of Weight Over :
Stricter activation conditions.
Hits own field as well.
Cannot hit the hand.
Cannot hit irritating shit like Lonefire, Dandy, Rabbit etc.
Weight Over or Chain D, you decide.
Personally, I feel that Weight Over is the more generic choice, whereas Chain D is better for some decks, E.G Agent decks or T.G varients. As you can Chain D. your own summon, you could potentially get rid of all your opponent's Earth or Striker with 2 turns, players tend to be more cautious in Games 2 and 3. So if you Chain D. your own summon, your opponent will be in total WTF mode.
Just some food for though, personally I will be choosing Weight Over for my Sams, as the risk of running into a mirror or fairly slim with the current meta shifting towards Hyperion and Striker and HR of the Six parties. Could always Chain D. HR but WTH?

Deck used: Six Samurai
Number of participants: 12
Round 1 vs Ash (D.D Monarch) OXO
Game 1 - Threw out Kageki tri-Kizan against his lone Survivor, he did not have Macro, and although he BTH one, he had no answer to the other 2 2100ATK Kizans.
Game 2 - He started with 4 backrow, and then I cleared 2 before Heavy Storm then he Road me. T.T Trish for advantage but he managed to get rid of it with the Macro quick-play Dark Hole along with my Snowman Eater. Lost all my advantage from there and he Caius out himself when I left 500.
Game 3 - Managed to get an early Shi'en out, hit until he left 500 then he set monster I pussy out suspect D.D Warrior Lady. He defended with his 2 face down monsters until I drew into Mizuho when I already had Ascetism in hand.
Round 2 vs Wesley (Gallis Troll Deck) XOO
Game 1 - I started with 2 United and 2 Ascestism but NO MONSTERS and drew into NO MONSTERS and he kept using Spy to hit me till I die-ed.
Game 2 - Gateway United opening, with monsters and sufficient protection, what more could I ask for? He did Lava Golem my Shi'en and Zanji, but he only had Faders to defend with and lost after using 2.
Game 3 - I open with Honourable Retiree, Mizuho and GM, tribute HR to bomb his Ryko, then hit. He Gallis I Debunk, he Dimensional Alchemist (I think his favourite card) suicide on GM to take back, then he got a Revise on the field and end turn. I normal Kagemusha, he drop Maxx "C" then I tribute to bomb Revise. I hit and he left 300, Double-Edged and he draw Trag LOL.
Top 4 vs Shaunewbiez (Dark World) OXO
Game 1 - I opened with Kageki Kizan United, set a Magatama and DEST and end turn. He set 3 end, I next turn Kizan GM United, he Torrential I Magatama, then United draw 2 draw into Heavy Storm, skillful game.
Game 2 - I only remember he Dragged my Heavy Storm and he Mind Crush me I forgot to Imp, I even showed him the Imp >< I drew 2 United but not a single Kageki or Kizan even or GM though I had Kagemusha, and Hand and later drew into a Mizuho. Finally after his Snoww hit until songsong I left 100 then I top draw Mirror Force, he Solemn it I Solemn back, so I was playing with 50 for the last 3-4 turns till he finally drew a monster LOL.
Game 3 - I opened with Shi'en and GM, he set alot I just keep hitting with those 2 the finally he Dark Hole I negate he Dragged I though "Oh Shit" and show me a Gate and I thought "Oh heng ar..." but he still no monster so he end I hit he Mirror Force I negate he scooped.
Final vs Poh Seng (GKs) OO
Game 1 - He Pot take Tribute I look at my hand 4 monsters and thought "OH F***" kena Tribute left 1 Heavy Storm. Next turn draw HR I just Storm and end. He Set and Flip his Commandant I was like "Heng ar not Spy" and eat the damage he set 1 backrow end. I then drew DEST set and end, he Set a mob and atk and end. I drew Ascestism and did it and he Flush before I Shi'en and I DEST into Shi'en when he no hand card, and just win from there. I admit, total lucksack.
Game 2 - Open with Storm Mizuho hit set 3 end turn, he Valley pass Recruiter tio BTH, Sin Cyber tio Warning, drew into no monsters and just ate Mizuho 5 times.
Result : 1st
Phew, after that fiasco at Top Shop yesterday, I think I found a Six Sam build that suits me more, after all, drawing the Yaichi in Game 1 against Junk Doppel is really _|_ so now the whole world knows I don't main Yaichi. LOL. Finally win Wesley ^^ but he using troll deck >< zzz. Was also suprised at the lack of Agent players, I guess people finally realised that Kristya(BITCH ANGEL) is a BITCH ANGEL.
Anw sucessfully defended my position in Division A from the point sucking monster that is Pohseng LOL jkjk. I wish my friends Wesley and Pohseng all the best for their tourney at Yew Tee next Saturday, Wee Min can scrub for all I care hahaha, also good luck to my teamates as well, I will likely be judging the event, after the win today, I SHOULD have enough points to keep me afloat in Division A.

Top Shop Tourney "Report" (19/11/11)
This is not so much a report but more of a reflective article.
In my first 2 swiss rounds, versus Bixuan and Sebas, I made 2 very crucial errors in Game 3 which not only cost me the victory, but made me feel like a second grade player. I was extremely dissapointed with myself as I let not only myself down but Uncle who had decided to choose me and not just anyone else.
Against Bixuan, I had a Shi'en and a Magatama, he on MST with 2 hand cards and another set card, I assumed with the way he was shuffling his hand that he had a Declarer, as I wanted him to waste it (greedy me) I negated, and he Pheonix Wing Wind Blast me. I was left to top decking, and so I lost.
Had I just Magatama-ed he would have to wait a full turn before he could get anything done, by which point I would have won.
Against the dog, I had Mizuho, Shi'en and Kizan, with 3 backrow. When he jumped his BLS, I decided not to Solemn as I had Mirror Force, the end result he out my Sams one by one. I assumed that he would be playing his normal style of hitting everything he could like an idiot, but it appeared that he had a brain too.
That said I still may not have made it to Top 8, if I had won Bixuan I would be against Jeryl I think, and Dark World is a fairly good matchup for Six Sams, however I would have to face another TGAA in the 3rd round, which although is not a bad matchup for Sams, it's a bad matchup for me cos of my fear of Kristya(BITCH ANGEL).
I know I went around saying that I brought the wrong deck and should have brought my Doppel, other than the fact that I returned everyone everthing, I feel extremely uneasy playing Doppel without Librarian. Still, it was the deck I was using the past month, while I lent my Sams to Cavin for the same period, so I should be more fresh with a Doppel deck.
I think bringing the wrong deck is a lousy excuse now, Colin from Asia Cards Shop also brought Six Sams to Top Shop and made it to Top 8, when I asked to see his decklist, I realised it was EXTREMELY similar to the one I brought, with only a couple of tech choices different. This proves to show that I did not bring the wrong deck, I simply did not play well enough.
With that, I think it's time for me to regain my touch with my Sams. With the ability to use Balkion and Roach now, I should have no excuse if I am unable to live up to my own expectations.

I assumed that he would be playing his normal style of hitting everything he could like an idiot, but it appeared that he had a brain too.
That said I still may not have made it to Top 8, if I had won Bixuan I would be against Jeryl I think, and Dark World is a fairly good matchup for Six Sams, however I would have to face another TGAA in the 3rd round, which although is not a bad matchup for Sams, it's a bad matchup for me cos of my fear of Kristya(BITCH ANGEL).
I know I went around saying that I brought the wrong deck and should have brought my Doppel, other than the fact that I returned everyone everthing, I feel extremely uneasy playing Doppel without Librarian. Still, it was the deck I was using the past month, while I lent my Sams to Cavin for the same period, so I should be more fresh with a Doppel deck.
I think bringing the wrong deck is a lousy excuse now, Colin from Asia Cards Shop also brought Six Sams to Top Shop and made it to Top 8, when I asked to see his decklist, I realised it was EXTREMELY similar to the one I brought, with only a couple of tech choices different. This proves to show that I did not bring the wrong deck, I simply did not play well enough.
With that, I think it's time for me to regain my touch with my Sams. With the ability to use Balkion and Roach now, I should have no excuse if I am unable to live up to my own expectations.
Congrats to Bixuan!!
Congrats to Bixuan, my 1st round opponent, for taking the Top Shop of Asia berth, representing Singapore in Taiwan in December.
Also, congrats to Jeff for coming in 2nd this event.
I may or may not do a report on this tourney, can't help but feel it was a total waste of time, but I suppose it just means that my Sams require alot more thought.
I should have been 2-2!!!! ><

ORCS pulls
ORCS came to Yew Tee today early in the afternoon, so following my tradition whenever a new set arrives, I whacked 3 packs and pull almost nothing good.
Then after some other people bought some packs, I got from then:
2x Inzectzor Hornet
2x Mainspring Rat
1x Ninjutsu Art of Super Transformation
1x Weight Over
1x Royal Prison
1x Ninja Grandmaster - HANZO
I carried on to whack 3 more packs to get one more Weight Over, and somemore crap, and ended the day with no foil pulls, as usual Dylan gets all the luck and pulled one on his second pack.
I knew that HANZO was a sought after card, but I didn't think that I would get a quote as high as $20 for it so I sold Jacky later that evening at that price. Dylan also finally gave up trying to sell his Rabbit online and gave in to Jacky's offer of OOPS CANNOT SAY.
Went on to whack another 3 booster (why always whack in 3s?) at Comics after Sebas and Roger left 1 Super in it, which could have been HANZO, Zenmighty or the Inzectzor bullcrap. Got a Royal Prison and ZENMIGHTY!!!
For those who do not know the combo here it goes:
1. Set-up: Mainspring Hunter in grave.
2. Normal summon Rat
3. SP Hunter
4. Overlay for Zenmighty
5. Detach Hunter to call Rat
6. Use Rat to call Hunter
7. Hunter eff tribute Zenmighty
8. Repeat steps 4-7
Alternatively you can be a bigger bastard:
1. Set-up: Hunter in grave, Inzectzor Hornet in hand or grave.
2. Summon Damsel, equip Hornet
3. Hornet blow and Damsel eff, SP Centibeet
4. Hornet blow again then Overlay for Zenmighty and be a bastard.
It could be childish thinking but personally I believe Zenmighty can end up being the next Dark Dive Bomber = March BANNED.
Other ways to abuse Zenmighty
1. Using Bitch on a Bus, A.K.A Tour Guide
2. Kulat SP Gale lol kidding
3. Double-Edged Kageki and Mizuho LOL HAHAHA
4. Summon Laquari and SP 2...... Wait for it.... TEST TIGERS!!!
I'd like to see you at Ah Soo this Saturday if you've got the balls to face the entire Yu-Gi-Oh community of Singapore that do not need Chain, Roach or Revise Holo. After all, I didn't make me hate you, if you catch my drift.
On a lighter note with no hidden messages, I got the 2 cards that I wanted in just the right quantities! Weight Over and Royal Prison I have 2 of each which is just right for my Side Deck. YIPEEE!!
Tmr Roger younger bro prize presentation, congrats to Louis for getting 2nd in class! For your present I let you call Zexuan kor kor Zexuan Whynopenis 1 time LOL.

Asia Plus 2011 Team Tournament Main Event Tournament Report (13/11/11)
Team name: LSD
Team Leader: Samuel (Machina Gadget)
Member A: Zexuan (Junk Doppel)
Member B: Dylan (WWBF)
Round 1 - VS Team Challenge Accepted! (I think)
Opponent : Jeff (Machina Gadget)
OXO
Game 1 - Opened with fairly nice tools for farming and went for the Trish using Formula Soc and Token, Trish got Creature Swap-ed but next turn retaliate with A.O.J and Scrap to go for kill.
Game 2 - Farmed abit with Ryko, but as usual mill almost shit lucky mill 1 DARK, so I next turn C.Soc he Compulse I chain DDV, ate ONE Gadget and he show me nice hand for rushing, next turn kena rush, defended with Dandy but the f*kin Kycoo so dog, my BLS stuck in hand cannot come out, next turn Lightning Vortex but still cannot do anything due to lack of Graveyard and BLS in hand. Lost becos kept drawing crap like Veiler which I didn't need then.
Game 3 - Abit of back and forth, then when I combo start, Junk + Formula, he ok pass, then I decided to go for Black Rose as he had 3 backrow and he Solemn me, meaning no Road. Actually he had made a mistake and in the end Compulse the C.Soc when it came out when it should have been the Junk, could have saved half his LP. I Fortress him and tio smash then the dumbest thing his field got one Kycoo one Gadget, Kycoo attack I go CotH CYBER! And tio Fortress-ed, top decked D.P and said F*k off to Kycoo before coming out 2 big boss mobs which I only remember one of them is Scrap Dragon.
Team Result : XOX
Round 2 - VS Team TAL
Opponent: Leon (KristyaLord)
OO
Game 1 - As usual when I see LightLord and a set monster I pussy out and suspect Ryko so straight into Trish despite waste of advantage, out Card Trooper from the hand which could have changed to situation. Keep on hitting for game, also he milled a Vermillion Declarer, so I knew it was KristyaLord.
Game 2 - He start first Recharge and then set monster. Begin to pussy out and suspect Ryko but then see no way to Trish until I drew One for One which was like the only thing I needed for my combo to start. One for One drop Dandy, Debris into Trish, Spore into Formula and constant plusing plus the minus he got from Trish meant that he couldn't keep up and had to summon small mobs to clear tokens but I Accel Synchro with Jain and Token to make Ancient Holy Wyvern with some ungodly attack, summon Core Destroyer and he Declarer but I continued to attack and he scrubbed.
Team Result : XOX
Some people might say that I got let down by my teamates but I disagree, they really did try. Anw, I wanted to drop but they didn't want to but our Round 3 opponents dropped which meant 2-2 with us pussy tiebreaker = don't even need to try play.
I wanted to Top 8 but I knew the chances were extremely slim and Samuel once again did last minute crap to his decklist which is total WTF for me all the time. It wasn't a bad tourney, I did what I came to do, which was win, so no hard feelings between me and my teamates, rather, I would like to remind people that Compulsing your opponent's Breaker when they target the Compulse is not a good idea. LOL.
Bought a playset of Toon Table of Contents + an old print Tomato for $8!
It was an enjoyable day, despite all the losing, I really felt that we were a team, yes on location I did tell those two of for silly misplays that they shouldn't have made, but overall I was er.. Satisfied with their effort? Can't say I was pleased.
I'm sure the next time the 3 of us come back as a team to play, we can beat anyone! Except Dylan cos he scrubs. Me and Samuel will carry him up LOL. And he can't grow hair on the top left corner of his forehead.
Also, my Asia decklist is my original decklist with only 2 changes to main, take out DAD and 1 Maxx "C", play Scapegoat and 1 extra Trago.
Extra changes, Orient to Iron Chain, Librarian to Junk
Side changes 1 D.D Crow to Chaos Hunter, 2 Mind Crush to Twister and Transmigration Prophecy.

YGO Asia Plus Team Report (Team LuckSack)
Hey people, 13ms.Ozawa here. (:
Team LuckSack : Cavin, Luke, Sean Tan
Had a bad morning today. Woke up @0750am today, got dressed and rushed down to Yew Tee MRT only to realise I had forgotten to bring my wallet. Went home to get it and managed to meet my team members 10 mins late. We arrived @ The CC around 10 plus along the way we were deciding for the team name and I thought of team "Gigandick" but the rest disagreed LOL and we changed it to Team lucksack. At the sign in I thought Eustace would print my deck list for me as my printer is spoilt but NOOOO. He could not wake his pussy up 10mins earlier to print it and I had to write it all over again on a blank template. To top it all of almost everyone in both teams managed to recover at least half of their entry fee. Luke got a Darksoul, Sammy got a maxx C, Reborn got a boggart knight and a scrap archfiend. While I got a fucking naturia pineapple. Eustace and sean got shit too. Now for the actual report
Team Score (Overall) X O X

Game 1
Opponent: Some malay player ( I suck at remembering malay names)
Deck: Dark world
Game: 1
He had a cast on one arm and yet still wanted to table shuffle my deck and I felt unhappy as he dropped a few cards. Well, I 1st turn united-Shi'en him (No gateway sadly) with a kizan and a backrow of magatama, double edge, warning and a bot. Later in the game, I misplayed by summoning my elder of the six samurai 1st before placing my gate. My gate barely touched the field and he was like "No, no replay" I didn't mind much since I misplayed and was in control for that game. next turn I grandmaster and double edged him for the win
Game: 2
Won via De kill, he dragged down set 4 cards in backrow one of them was a "gate of the dark world" well the game continued and and slowly he opened all his backrow and when he reached his gate he replaced it with the current gate. I called judge, judge dekill him since he opened a card D as well in the previous turns.
2nd Game
Opponent: Some chinese dude (Nice guy (: forgot his name though)

Score:O X O
Game 1: won due to 1st turn shi'en and strong protection. When summoning to prepare for the killing blow. he book of moon my shi'en. I negate he chained Flush. I starlight road and he auto scooped.

It's what you've all been waiting for, the mysterious deck list that I used in CardMaster tournament on Deepavali, Ranking tournament on the 5th and Lavalval Chain tournament on the 6th. By the time this is posted, Asia Team would be over and I would hav quit Junk Doppel and reverted back to my number 1 deck. For those of you who dunno, ask SinLong what it is ^^.
Now without furthue ado, the decklist.
26 Monsters
3x Junk Synchron
2x Doppelwarrior
2x Raikou, Lightlord Hunter
2x Card Trooper
2x Effect Veiler
2x Chaos Sorceror
2x Maxx "C"
1x Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning
1x Glow-up Bulb
1x Debris Dragon
1x Dandylion
1x Dark Armed Dragon
1x Tragoedia
1x Jean, Lightlord Paladinn
1x Sangan
1x Spore
1x Lonefire Blossom
1x Mystic Tomato
9 Spells
1x Reinforcement of the Army
1x Charge of Light Brigade
1x Mystical Space Typhoon
1x Mind Control
1x Pot of Avarice
1x Monster Reborn
1x Foolish Burial
1x One for One
1x Heavy Storm
5 Traps
2x Call of the Haunted
2x Bottomless Trap Hole
1x Torrential Tribute
1x T.G Recipro Dragonfly
1x Formula Synchron
1x Arms Aid
1x T.G Hyper Librarian
1x Ally of Justice Catastor
1x Orient Dragon
1x Splendid Rose
1x Black Rose Dragon
1x Ancient Holy Wyvern
1x Arcanite Magician
1x Junk Destroyer
1x Stardust Dragon
1x Scrap Dragon
1x Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Boundary
1x Chimeratech Fortress Dragon
2x D.D Crow
1x Cyber Dragon
1x A.O.J Core Destroyer
1x Deck Devastation Virus
1x Lightning Vortex
1x Starlight Road
1x Dimensional Prison
1x Gemini Imps
1x Mystical Space Typhoon
1x Divine Wrath
2x Mind Crush
2x Wild Tornado
Note: Not all decks used were the same, on the day of CardMaster I had no access to Maxx "C"s, and was using an additional MST and Allure, siding Chaos Hunter as a result. On the day of Ranking tourney, I was using only 1 Maxx "C" choosing to stick with the MST instead of Allure. This decklist is consistent with the decklist I used during Lavalval Chain tourney with the exception of the Orient Dragon which I forgot to borrow on the 6th and hence had to settle for Iron Chain.
Now to explain my tech choices,
3 Junk Synchron cos it is so baller, my favourite card is Blizzard and Junk Synchron is similar to Blizzard in so many ways, also at 3 the manipulation of the DARK count in graveyard is much easier and DAD can jump more easily.
Trag at 1 cos in mid game it is quite a dead draw IMO, stops OTKs but also prevents you from doing it and certainly an extremely weak top deck compared to Junk or maybe even Doppel. No Gorz as everyone knows I hate Gorz which gets stuck with CotH and it is so bloody obvious when you have Gorz unless you Battle Step MST like SinLong so pro.
Jean ahead of Leila cos it kills Raious and baits out BTHs as easily, more importantly it only cost 50cents as compared to $32.
No Scapegoat cos it is not THAT beneficial mid game, only an OTK stopper.
No Dark Hole as I hate that card and try drawing it when your field has a Librarian, I WAN TO SYNCHRO NOT SELF DESTRUCT!
Traps are rather self explanatory. No Dustshoot as I did not feel the need and really is more dead than a Trag when top decking.
No Brionac as I feel that it is not really fast and unless you can ensure you can produce an 8000 board, which usually is no when you come out a Level 6, not really worth it. Don't get me wrong sometimes I really wish I did put it.
No Quasar as it is an unfriendly way to win, most importantly. However, as I only run 2 Level 5 Synchros I also did not feel that it was really needed to win. Also, the risk of it being stopped was too big for me.
Fortress ahead of Synchros such as Ancient Fairy or Shooting Star, which is by far the one I wish I put most often, because of the risk of a Machina Gadget matchup, where they side against us so easily but we find it hard to side against them with anything other than Cybers.
Really wish I put Shooting Star half the time, but without Quasar also abit pointless.
Divine Wrath wins games, fact. Wild Tornado against Dark World with their Gate and Skill Drain.
You see people, dun hav Quasar still can win one.
Also a very big shoutout to my team members who have supported me during all these tournaments and truth be told to the world, without them this deck wouldn't have been possible.

So I borrowed almost the entire deck.
LOL, to support us you can donate to us at the "Love Team YGO.noobs !" fund joking...
Anyway, there you go, and for SporeBoy, here it is. The decklist you've been waiting for. Please note that this is a highly personal preference deck and being an extremely realistic person this deck has almost NO outs from epic lucksack. So he Turn 2 Kristya you only thing left is Ryko.
After Top Shop of Asia next week I may be posting the decklist I use that day online too. It contains a certain tech that is a rather bold move I feel. But if I do win and represent Singapore, I have decided to take it all the way to Taiwan. It has a 100% win rate on DNet so far, but all were against favourable matchups. So we'll just have to wait and see.

Asia Cards Shop Lavalval Chain Tournament (6/11/11)
I'm freaking frazzled cos I never won a tournament in my life, let alone a Lavalval Chain tournament
Round 1 - Wei Ann (T.G Agent Angel) OXO
Game 1 - Back and forth early build up, then when I dropped Maxx "C" on his Venus, gained the advantage with a Trishula next turn and took the game from there.
Game 2 - I lost, I remember a Hyperion.
Game 3 - I won, I remember a Splendid Rose.
Round 2 - Johann (Hero Beat) XX
Game 1 - He began with unfriendly backrow. I decided to be friendly.
Game 2 - Black Rose attempt with Spore and Doppel kenna Gozen Match.
WHAT IS YUGIOH?
Round 3 - Clarence (Karakuri) OXO
Game 1 - He had to waste Warnings on two Card Troopers and when the big troops came, he could only attempt to stall.
Game 2 - D. Fissure wins games, fact.
Game 3 - D. Fissure wins games, this time for me as I Trishula-ed but decided to go for the backrow and it was D.P and attack the soldier thingy, which effect activates in Grave. Keep on hitting for game.
Result: 2-1
Swiss Ranking: 8th WTF?
Proceed to Top 8
Top 8 - Dominic (Frognach) XOO
Game 1 - Couldn't gain any tempo at all! And keep forgetting to Veiler Swap Frogs. And forgot he Potted a Creature Swap and give him free BLS.
Seriously what's with me forgetting Pots these days...
Game 2 - I totally can't remember! I think my Trishula hit his Gorz and it was like stall stall stall cannot stall.
Game 3 - He was desperate, he Formula with a Normal Summoned Veiler, I was evil, I Veiler the Formula.
Top 4 - Johann (Hero Beat) OO
Game 1 - I was being controled with a BREAKER! Then I lure BTH out with Librarian, Next turn C.Soc into Arcanite then burst 2 backrow turnout to be Mirror Force and D.P, went on to Trishula and hit the Dark Hole.
Game 2 - I forgot to BTH his Airman, which turned out to be a good thing cos he came out his SHINING that turn, Trishula again for the pluses and took game from there with sheer advantage.
Top 2 - Joel (Dark World) OO
Game 1 - He had Grapha and Beiige, I came out Trishula and C.Soc, he came out Hope to defend and I jump DAD for game.
Game 2 - He made a very big mistake with his Drag Down, taking my D.D Crow and next turn I jus Reborn his Grapha, he had no Fiend so he Summon Snoww to suicide, suicide pass, but Raiou attacked Ryko which in turn burst the Gate and he was left with Grapha stuck in hand and Raiou on field. He set a monster the next turn and I show him BLS.
Position : 1st
Prize: Lavalval Chain
My first win!! I hav decided to reveal my SUPAAA INSANE TECH Junk Dop after Asia, lol. Overall, a FANTASTIC experience as I think everyone gets after their first win. So this is how Wesley feels. Muahahahaha!!
I would like to thank Dominic and Johann for their SUPAAA friendlyness in the Top 8 and Top 4 games, if not I sure jizz and scrub one. Joel as well, for a free Grapha, LOL jkjk, a great game, Trap Dustshoot wins games.
Also, my maths recently supaa cui, jus now Synchro 2 stars come out Librarian. -.-
Dunno what else to say, it seems as though my deck jus has a few modifications and it's ready to go, some stuff in there are seriously dead against some decks, for example Maxx "C" against all my Top 8 matchups. And Veiler against Dark World, still haven't decided how many Veilers to main.
My head still giddy, like Reborn's penis, Johann's full foil deck too shiny for me.

Full Yen Ranking Tourney Report (5/11/11)
Deck brought: Junk Doppel
Number of participants: 22
Went today as usual and saw people that were playing YGO but I never met them before so assume they were joining.
As usual, only the scrubs didn't join.
The largest turnout today I think and there were alot more pros than normal.
There was some problem with the pairing which led to Samuel having 2 byes which is bullshit.
Now on with the report:
Round 1 vs SinLong (Junk Doppel) OXO
Game 1 - The only monsters I saw when I killed him were Gorz and Effect Veiler. Which led to....
Game 2 - SIDE DECKING AS THOUGH HE WAS PLAYING BF, the only deck I ever see SinLong play, then the first Card Trooper and I was like !! NOT A SHURA? And stared at my facedown Starlight Road, drew into nothing and so end result is nothing.
Game 3 - I threw him a nasty board, he D.D Crowed the Spore I attempted, I Divine Wrath him, and then the CHAOS BEGAN! End field so unfriendly my friendly mind totally forgot it, I think was like Librarian, A.O.J. BLS, boss mobs fiesta or something.
Round 2 vs Zhi (Machina Gadget) OXO
Game 1 - Slowly wittled down his backrow dominance and Ryko away his Roach, then BLS + Arms Aid him.
Game 2 - He start first set 4 and later set 5 and I totally ZOMGWTF, tried to start stun thinking I had enough protection from his protection he on Vanity's Space I totally GG. Also I this game had 2 Veilers but I never dropped for some God knows what forsaken reason.
Game 3 - I start first but he summon like Banisher and I totally.... Managed to get rid of it with Ryko then Veiler his Gadget (YAY I remembered!), ate a Starlight Road AND a Vanity's Space, but luckily Sangan came and I search Ryko, MST the other face down and plus 1 cos Stardust negate Vanity's Space also gone. Ryko burst the D.P, then I Pot of Avarice everything except Glow-up Bulb and Spore. Maths failed me when I Synchro-ed Splendid Rose when it was 7 stars but he nice enough let me replay and I Synchro-ed Librarian instead and left Ryko on the field, Glow-up jump Doppel, he WTF me, then do all the way to Arms Aid jump BLS and apologised profusely, he still didn't die that turn cos of two Tragoes in the hand but next turn show me Yellow and MST and was like totally WTF.
Sorry..... Really sorry.....
Round 3 vs Mathspro (D.D Agent Angel) OO
Game 1 - Early unfriendly board, was like Librarian the Trishula then actually tot he still alive then I Mind Control his last face down, which I think was Reaper, then he was like WTF as well.
He had already taken 3000 from Venus and Warning.
Game 2 - Threw some early pressure and had face down Divine Wrath. His Gachi helped him defend abit, then he finally Pot his D. Fissure, but summoned Earth before activating it, rightly so. I Divine Wrath and dropped Junk Synchron. Next turn I DAD.
Top 3 vs Sebas (Lightlord) XX
All I remember is his JD come out is free one, and I Game 1 kena Shock Ruler like a dog, I set 2 backrow, WHY YOU NO CALL TRAP? Game 2 actually got thing do but waiting for a larger opening. Then in the end hello JD oh you brought a friend and his name is JD too? What's the use of 2 Veiler's in hand when the JD doesn't want to bomb, jus want to hit you 3000?
Overall position: 3rd
FUCK LA LAST TIME ALWAYS 2nd NOW 3rd WHAT IS YUGIOH?
Many members of Team YGO.noobs ! joined today's tournament. Actually it's everyone except JIYEON. Cos he got O level and he care not like 13ms. Ozawa and JY. All made it to second round except SporeBoy who lost to Mathspro, Reborn who loses to everybody and is a dumbturtle and Sean lost to Wesley LAWL. But they are also the three youngest members so er... well not THAT BAD...
zzsammyzz ended going on to get 1st and this is the first time he won 2 opponents in a Ranking Tourney, actually he win 3.
I want to say that it is not my fault that my team member had two byes, yes he wanted to win but more importantly, he wanted to play.
Sebas said that this tournament never count Ranking points. Can someone please help us clarify that? Cos I want my points T.T
EDIT: GOT POINT LA SEBAS!!

Card Review: Gren, Tactician of the DarK World
Firstly, this is a dark world monster, which means its one of those stuffs where after you discard it, your opponent goes "OMG DARK WORLD!!"
Firstly, new Dark World cards came out not long ago and many ppl are playin it coz its so overpowering, why?? ITS BECAUSE OF THIS CARD!!!! this card is overrrated and has been believed to rise to $25 per piece!!
IMAGE: You are fieldless handless wif only the field spell, and you just mind crushed your opponent, you saw a mirror force and BTH in his hand, he sets a card and end his turn, you might think its a mirror force so its your turn, you draw your card and you see Zure, Knight of dark world, you summon it, and it kenna BTH!! not a mirror force. But what happens when your opponent only has 600 LP?? you top draw this godly card and you can raise out your hand to offer a handshake wif opponent. Your opponent can't do a shit!!! Even if the set card is not BTH you must look on the bright side, you attack and he mirror forced a miserable of a 600 atk monster!! its a ONE FOR ONE!!!
IMAGE: You have a grapha on the field, your opponent has 3000LP a DP set face down, you top draw this card and.... uses the field spell to discard it and destroy a $9 (i think) card!!!!! What's better? your opponent falls of his chair and goes, "NO, i am not worthy of looking at this card!!" and he went to end his life.
IMAGE: your opponent has a E.Hero Absolute Zero on the field, one Effect Vieler in his hand, and one Necro Gardna in his graveyard. You have a junk synchron, double summon and inferno reckless summon in your hand!! You can scrub alr rite??? But.... IMAGE: you summon junk synchron, pull BOOKOO (one of the godliest and most expensive card in history of ygo) from ur graveyard and den use inferno reckless summon to summon more BOOKOOs from hand, field and grave, but you look at your banished zone and see a BOOKOO and you recall your BOOKOO kenna DP the turn b4. 1 junk synchron + 2 bookoos = level 7, you cannot black rose coz there's effect veiler, you cannot scarp archfiend coz you'll kamikaze wif the absolute zero. BUT!!! what if, you forgotten your draw phase and top draws a GREN!!! you activate double summon and normal summon GREN!! 1 junk synchron + 2 bookoos + 1 gren = lvl 9, hehe you get what i mean!! TRISHULA!!!, your opponent will be too flustered and traumatized at the presence of a $45 (i think) card that he totally gone bonkers and forgotten he had a damn effect veiler on the field!! WHAT'S WORSE? he'll forget to use necro gardna upon TRISHULA's summon, ON TOP OF THAT!! he'll even forget to destroy your TRISHULA wif absolute zero's eff (even though its compulsory, nvm, judge not looking). you smack that card right at his face and you'll win!!! ALL BECAUSE OF..... GREN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Other support wif GREN, mage power + mage power + mage power + mage power + shooting star bow ceal = 9300 ATK = OTK!!!! :)
