Ranking results are FUCKED!

Ok so here's the math,
I had 10 points,
After which my first tourney at JCube I beat Ash, Wesley, Shaun Lin and Poh Seng and I know that Ash and Wesley were both Rank A then, Poh Seng Rank C. So assuming lowest possible gain I got 9 points here. Though I don't even think Shaun Lin was a D.
19 points.
Next I played at Clementi, scrubbed first round to YingJun. -7
12 points
Next at Yew Tee, won Sean, who is now at A so he should have been hovering around B or C then, assume C, then lost to a borrowed ID, assume -7.
8 points
Next I lost to YingJun again, and assuming he's still a D, and I'm still an A, -7
1 point
I don't see how it adds up to -4. I assume worse case scenario for everything.

March Banlist Prediction v2.0

After another 2 weeks in the meta, we enter the last 2 weeks till we get the spoiler list, which isn't really a spoiler cos I think Konami actually wants the players to get the list earlier. Anyway, I think some things on my previous list need to be addressed.

Forbidden
Monster Reborn
Future Fusion

Limited
Inzecter Hornet
Mainspring Rat
Magician of Faith
Royal Oppression
The Agent of Creation - Venus
Ultimate Offering
Dragged Down into the Grave
Archlord Kristya
Rekindling

Semi-Limited
BF - Kalut the Moon Shadow
Book of Moon
MST
Rescue Rabbit
Compulsory Evacuation Device

Unlimited
Magical Stone Excavation

I didn't ban anything different, Foolish Burial is limited for a reason so there is no reason why we should have a 5 time Foolish Burial in one activation. And it's time for Monster Reborn to go.

Limited cards, I guess they really do want to hit Inzecters now, the more I think about it why not? Hand D loop must be nerfed, Rat to 1 doesn't kill it but nerfs it significantly. Magician of Faith, slow. Oppression necessary as they are likely to keep Hyperion, BLS and Grapha in the game. Now for the Agent hit, I guess Venus has to be the one instead of Striker, which would be unfair to TG decks. Ultimate Offering is still stupid good, and Dragged Down has to be the one if they don't touch Grapha which they probably won't. Laval winning in a format dominated by Inzecter means they have some unchecked imba and that is Rekindling. Kristya, nuff said.

Kalut and Book of Moon, give BF some
support, Book of Moon probably not to 3 I guess. MST at 3 was dumb, you could say who really plays 3, but the idea of having 3 in the sideboard anyway was stupid. Everyone wants Rabbit hit and I really don't getit. Ragia is te imba one. NOW, Compulse, I believe TCG should hav the priority ruling by this list, if they don't it won't happen. But Compulse is as good as Bottomless now. And it's harder to negate.

Magical Stone Excavation.
WTF?

I didn't hit Dandy cos here in OCG it really isn't doing much, you can talk about Cat but Cat was still a played deck then, so is Junkdo ok now I'm contradicting myself. Basically, the reasons "Plants" last so long is cos of TCG exclusives, whereas here in OCG land only skilled players win with Junkdo. It is a skill based deck, auto pilot yes, but you must know how to turn on the auto pilot. OCG players' Junkdo tend to be able to adapt to anything, but playing Tengus and Tour Guides in Plants adds a whole lot of other variables ie, drawing Sangan or Tengus, more liable to field lock. Ok, I hav no idea what I'm talking about, jus that I'm pretty sure Brionac will get banned before Dandy.

As for those who disagree with Magician of Faith to 1, please nuke me twice. Konami reprinted Starlight Road AGAIN. So unless you telling me Heavy Storm or Dark Hole is going to 2....... Hint hint.

For TCG readers, Tengu deserves to get hit as does Tour Guide, and I agree waiting till next March is silly. So IMO, they'll just push EXP5 forward like they did ORCS. Just enough to hit them in Sept, hopefully. Anyway if those two get hit now, it'll be good for the game.

Holy Shit?!

Did anyone notice what card DT14 - JP010 is?
LOL?!?!
Luckily Samuel didn't buy those Ultra ones, lest he shit his pants.

Happy CNY!! And a question for all

"CNY and I wear new clothes but no money to buy new protectors so my cards no new clothes >< so sad." is something KFC would translate in his language to Happy CNY.

Hopefully with this new year, he either shuts up or keeps his crap to himself.

Anyway, after watching Amos Yee become famous I wanna be famous too!

No not in that way, we've had some feedback before and we have been considering the prospect of doing duel vids and deck reviews, with a twist.

We actually intend to do some troll vids in conjuction with our actual games and all, so just asking for some opinions, if it is a good idea or will we get flamed really bad LOL.

It make take quite awhile though cos we're dumb and dunno how to upload stuff onto YouTube, or edit vids or anything, what's more with school I have less time to figure it out.

Just tell us what you guys think about the idea of duel vids. Both serious and troll ones.

No. 15 Gimmick Puppet - Giant Killer

No. 15 Gimmick Puppet - Giant Killer 「No.15 ギミック・パペット-ジャイアントキラー」
DARK/Machine - Xyz - Effect/Rank 8/1500/2500
2x Level 8 Monster
Effect unconfirmed: During your Main Phase 1, you can activate this effect by removing 1 Xyz Material from this card and selecting 1 Special Summoned Monster your opponent controls. Destroy the selected monster. If the destroyed monster was an Xyz Monster, inflict Damage to your opponent's Life Points equal to the original ATK of that monster. This effect can be used up to twice per turn.

As if the previous unconfirmed effect wasn't already gay. This is downright imba, Dark World gonna be Tier 1.

Lol jus kidding, but the effect is ZOMGWTF good.

What's more, I just realised te release date is on my birthday! Hint hint. ^^

Puppet Plant vs Kinetic Soldier

Now Bubbleman Beat is considered imba, LOL, people will start siding against HERO again. So when we think of HERO, what else do we think of other than ofc, Snowman Eater?

We think of anti Warrior bullshit! The two most famous anti Warrior bullshit are Kinetic Soldier and Puppet Plant so let's do a comparision.

Kinetic Soldier
Pros:
-Defensive card
-Forces the Spark or the Super Poly
-Lvl 3 (all Lvl 3s are imba)
-Extremely disruptive in the early game
Cons:
-Machine
-Dies to counter pumped Breaker
-Can be HERO Blast-ed

Puppet Plant
Pros:
-Take opponent's Blade Heart to OTK
-Forces the Spark
-Can take control of Breaker
-Can't be HERO Blast-ed (usually)
-Lvl 3
Cons:
-May not dodge the Super Poly
-Effectively a -1 at end turn
-May be ineffective due to HERO's low mob counts

My personal preference is Puppet Plant cos Brain Control is banned for a reason xP, the only real concern is Super Poly or Compulse. I find Kinetic Soldier leaving your opponent being able to control the outcome, but with Puppet Plant, you could possibly end the game that turn.

And I found this:
No. 15 Gimmick Puppet - Giant Killer 「No.15 ギミック・パペット-ジャイアントキラー」
(???)/(???) - Xyz - Effect/Rank 8/1500/2500
2x Level 8 Monster
Effect unconfirmed: Activate by removing 1 Xyz Material from this card. Destroy all Xyz Monster your opponent controls, and inflict Damage to your opponent equal to their total ATK.

Yaaaay, Grapha too imba already. Come out Acid Golem, lose the game. Also it doesn't say once per turn, so could get rid of Zenmaines if you have something to run over it. And your opponent will take 3000k AND you'll have 2 Grapha in the grave. You could get over Gachi too but what's the point?

I know it's unconfirmed people, just saying.

The format has been crap

Agent, then TGAA, and now Inzecter, is there no end to this bullshit?

I just wanna play Sams and win, like the good old days.

I wish March came tmr. Cos the more I think about it, the more I think Inzecter will get hit which means, OPPRESSION will be back, ZOMGWTF, I don't own one, that is bad.

Need to get one soon.

I also tend to add a new deck to my collection every year. Last year was Six Sam, maybe it'll be Inzecter after nerf, but my eyes are on Ninja Laggia. Ideas are welcome. Machina Gadget is a close second place candidate, I should just build that....

Did any of you O level guys choose JC? Prepare to appeal to poly soon, trust me on this one.

March Banlist Predictions

People have already started doing it and I always wanted to do one ^^, here it is!

Forbidden
Future Fusion
Monster Reborn

Limited
Archlord Kristya
T.G Striker
Magician of Faith
Dragged Down into the Grave
Call of the Haunted
Ultimate Offering
Black Rose Dragon
(Inzecter Hornet)
(Royal Oppression)
(Mainspring Rat)

Semi Limit
BF - Kulat the Moon Shadow
Debris Dragon
MST
(Inzecter Damsel)

Unlimited
Book of Moon
Mind Crush

Alot of differences with my list and others so I guess I have alot of explaining to do.
Future Fusion is too strong for Dragons. Monster Reborn is just gay and deserves to go.
Kristya, expected. The rest of the Limited are abit crazy though. Like I said, Konami doesn't hit their SD foils so in order to hit TGAA and DW, two of their strongest tech cards in the form of Striker and Dragged Down will take the hit. Magician of Faith, deserves to come back, it's slow. Black Rose to 1 cos people have won lost games just cos they played two. Call is imba when played in Inzecter and Offering is just stupid. The ones in brackets are cards that will get hit if ORCS is taken into consideration for this banlist.
Semi Kulat, normal, semi Debris, Black Rose was the problem with Debris and with it gone and Call to 1 Junk Dop needs support like this. 3 MST is bad for the game. Damsel is a bigger issue than Hornet from a player point of view but Konami aren't players so they'll probably see Hornet as the imba ones.
Book of Moon to 3 beacause it's a healthy card for the game now, it stops things, its a -1, and it makes BF playable again. Mind Crush cos Dragged Down will be a big blow to DW, and so giving them splashable tech isn't necessaarily a bad thing.

That's it for now. School........ Aragh!!!!!!

Royal Oppression will not get unbanned

First day of school for me and life sucks already. I hate school. I'm sure Pohseng will say the same so anyone planning to go JC, don't LOL. Anyway getting back to the topic.

Special Summoning is a problem in the meta, not just our meta, but the TCG meta. You know what? ESPECIALLY the TCG meta. Kristya is also a bitch that deserves to get banned, so she can't be the solution to all the SP summoning now can she?

So ofc every thinks of everyone's most favourite anti SP card which of course, is Oppression. I must admit I used to hate Oppression and I didn't even play it in my BF but now, looking back at the format without Oppression, it really is sorely needed to stop some of the bullshit that some decks do, Maxx "C" isn't very helpful if your opponent's going to kill you that turn.

HOWEVER, I say Oppression isn't coming back for one one simple reason.
Inzecter.

They so OP now, can you imagine giving them an Oppression? Which btw, unless you're like retarded they can abuse the Oppression like free. God damn those insects can tech ANYTHING. Unless what people say is true, that TCG are getting ORCS early just so we can hit Inzecters, I don't see Oppression getting unbanned anytime soon.

Don't get me wrong, I wan Oppression back in the game. I just dunwan to be forced to play an auto pilot deck to have my games within my control, cos the losses I have against Inzecter, I had no say in them period, and I have questioned my deck building and all that and really the only reason I lost is cos good pilot good deck.

I know what people are saying that Inzecters will get hit but I still think it's extremely unlikely and even if they do then giving them the Oppression will just make them imba again. So either way the bugs are here to stay.

Seriously???

Just watched a few of those banlist predictions done by Americans who think they know everything but actually they know shit. Crap that I've heard:
1. Leviair banned cos it's "imba herp derp"
2. Grapha limited, cos it's WAAAY too good a card.
3. If they ban Sangan, Witch will SURELY come back. (This was the most WTF to me)
4. Kristya banned, cos it shuts down all engines. And I thought I hated Kristya.
5. Necro Gardna to 3. Wait WHAT?
6. WHY IS DEWLOREN SEMI? LOL! Good question.
7. Every single list hits Hyperion!
8. One guy banned Shi'en, that really pissed me off. How does that even make sense it's so easy to play around him now.
For any TCG players reading this:
1. SD foils NEVER get hit. People were raping with Machina during mid 2010 but they were not even touched at ALL.
2. Inzecter will probably not get hit, well maybe they will cos TCG getting them earlier, but it won't be a full force hit.
3. Trap Dustshoot will stay at 1.
4. BLS will stay at 1.
5. Lonefire will stay at 1.
6. Damn it GS cards won't get hit.
7. The YGO market in Asia got hit quite bad by an up and coming TCG known as Vanguard, so apparantly Konami wants to keep its players happy.
But what about all that imba herp derp?
Konami will find a way to get us to stop playing Agents and Dark World, without hitting the foils in the deck. This could include hitting certain techs used in the decks or giving other decks stuff to kill them with. Notice how the Machina craze died down after Sept'10 list?
That said, the most logical way to hit Agent is to hit Hyperion, but I really don't see that coming just as the most logical way to hit Machina was hitting Gearframe. As for the Inzecter, hope they get hit even Damsel to 1 is good enough. But like I said, can say with 90% confidence that it won't happen. That said my banlist predictions will be out during the middle of the month so do stay tuned!

Full Yen Ranking Tourney

Scrubbed to a stupid deck run by a good pilot, so not hard done by or anything.

Round 1 vs Ying Jun (Wind-up Inzecter) XOX
Game 1 - He drop my whole hand, I give him thing to shoot as he did not open with any Hornet dumping crap and sure enough he had one in hand.
Game 2 - Control really nicely and did the Dustshoot trick, although not the best results but hey.
Game 3 - 3 backrow kena Decree and the Hornets start coming out and my life end.

I can say that I don't think I made any mistakes cos I did anticipate the Decree side but my MSTs hate me. Just can't beat Inzecter they have what they need, although having play tested myself I know some hands are ZOMGWTF.

Btw, the Dustshoot trick is to activate it when they declare effect. By returning the Hornet, you force them to equip some random shit like another Damsel or Centibeet, which is a huge plus, considering they are now Lvl 6 so any Instant Fusion follow up will be futile.

May decide to copy Johann and start storing luck for Asia, the last time I topped was when both of us top table and he won me, so if his luck is out mine must be too, come to think of it, I haven't won in tourney match since then..........

Dunno what deck to bring though, if they following Sept'11 banlist don't even know if I should JOIN, cos really this format is bullshit for Sams, and utopia for TGAA and Inzecter, let alone InzecterAA. And I really dunwan to have to end up playing any of that.

Full Yen Tourney Report 07/01/12

After being on a hiatus for quite some time due to work and other matters, i went to join the ranking tourney at Full Yen today. There was very little participants today so we started with only 11 people. But after the pairings are out, a group of people wanted to join (namely SP YGO or whatever their team name is now). No offense, just doing a narrative here. Sadly, the group of people who came late are thus unable to join. I wasn't lucky so i didn't get a BYE. First round against Wesley summore.

No. of participants : 11 (or so i think)

Deck used: Junk Doppel

Round 1: Wesley (Junk Doppel)

Game 1: I farmed faster than him (maybe because i'm too used to playing carrying roles in DotA). He wanted to start his stun but i maxx c him and that made him stop his plan to start the stun. Won due to imba mill of dandy and spore and i had an unfriendly field of Synchros + DAD.

Game 2: I remembered i had face up attack position ryko and 2 dandy tokens thanks to my imba mill and he summoned a Crimson Blader (SO UNFRIENDLY!) He destroyed the ryko and i'm fucked for my next turn, or so i thought. Checked with him that Crimson Blader must destroy a monster and send it to the graveyard for its effect to activate. so face up tokens are kinda safe. But i next turn summon Junk Synchron and pulled a level 1 tuner. Synchro-ed for Formula Synchron and Arms Aid. End turn. Next turn he entered Main Phase then i immediately synchro for Orient Dragon (Thanks Luke!). Wesley was takeen aback, heh! Turned the tides to my favour. Had a really nice hand of BLS + CS but when i Avarice, i put back all my dark targets in the grave. Wesley then came back from hell (quoting him) and he made a comeback. His trishula RFG my Gorz in my hand. T.T A HUGE MISPLAY costs me the second game.

Game 3: I had a much better hand than him and i attacked him with DAD in the game (First blood). It's important as we were already dragging into time since the beginning. His next turn he didn't do much and he set a monster facedown. My last turn, i used DAD effect to destroy the monster and it turned out to be a sangan. He searched Battle Fader (OMFG) and i used my DAD to come out Trishula, hoping for a game even though i was in a much more comfortable position than him as my lifepoints were left untouched at that moment. Didn't manage to RFG his Fader so he dropped it and i couldn't do anything so i end turn. Last and final turn, meaning also him last Battle Phase. He had quite a handful of resources but he told me that if i showed him a Gorz he will scrub, And so i showed him my Gorz, Tragoedia, and my facedown Scapegoat. So i win by having more lifepoints. Sorry Wesley. It was a fun game and it really made me think a lot as i became rather rusty by not touching my deck for like 2weeks + or so.

There was a moment where i summoned Quasar in Game 3 but it got PWWB and i negated it but he had Veiler. He actually played 3 Veilers. Saw 2 Veilers in the grave and thought that he couldn't possibly play 3. Wesley never fails to surprise.

My reaction was like "YES I WIN WESLEY!"

Game result: OXO

Thought my new round opponent would be friendlier, but guess what? Next opponent turns out to be Poh Seng. Zzz...

Round 2: Poh Seng (WWBF)

Game 1: Set a ryko and end. He summoned Cyber Dragon and Shura. Shura attacked and i destroyed Shura. Ate 2100 LP. My ryko mill was nice and i had an imba mill such as spore etc. Somehow got rid of Cyber with BLS and Jain (yes i play Jain, the Lightsworn Warrior, cause i'm too poor to afford Lyla even though it was reprinted in the new Structure Deck) and dealt a lot of damage to Poh Seng such that he was left with 3k LP. I also had a BLS on my field. He destroyed my field and he summoned Brionac to bounce Jain and he came out DAD and monster reborned my BLS. Luckily for me i had Gorz in my hand and that prevented me from an OTK and i was left with dangerously low LP. Next turn i thought for quite sometime and i managed to win with him having BLS, DAD and Brionac by making a Librarian and a Arms Aid. Arms Aid was made using Formula + TG Dragonfly. And that constitutes to me having a huge handsize. Arms Aid equipped on Librarian dealt 3.4k LP which was enough to end the Game.

Game 2: He went first again but with no monsters. I set a card and end. He Sirocco me and attacked me. I forgot what came after but i remembered than during my turn, i summoned BLS after my Battle Phase and i just kept RFG whatever monster he set. And from the first monster i RFG which turns out to be Blizzard, i deduced that he had a really poor hand. Just plain Beatdown from there onwards won me the Game.

Game result: OO-

Round 3: ??? (???)

Game 1: I started with an opening hand of Dandylion and Lonefire. Set Lonefire and ended my turn, He summoned Snipe Hunter and i was like WTF MY LONEFIRE NOOOOO!!! He used Sniper effect and discarded Quiltbolt Hedgehog but unfortunately rolled a 1 (thanks to my chanting heh) He then proceed to set a card and end turn. I proceeded to do the Lonefire and Dandylion thing and gained HUGE advantage from there onwards and ended the game. I had MST the facedown and it turns out to be Gravity Bind.

Game 2: He didn't side deck so let's not waste time and we quickly proceeded to Game 2. He started first and he set a monster. I ryko destroyed his monster 2 turns later and proceeded to Quasar him when he had an empty field.

Game result: OO-

Round 4 (Finals)

Ying Jun (Windup Insectzers)

Game 1: I set ryko and end turn. He Damsel and Hornet me and Damsel effect summoned Centipede from deck. I dropped Maxx C to plus. He attacked and i jumped Tragoedia. My hand size quite huge so he proceed to Main Phase 2 to destroy Tragoedia and added Damsel to his hand. I then prompt him to overlay to which he did. So i told him i draw a card due to Maxx C's effect and he stare at me and pointed his longest finger at me. YINGJUN WHY YOU SO UNFRIENDLY!? My turn i summon Lonefire and i had Foolish Burial to which i can summon Black Rose to gain huge advantage but he PWWB my Lonefire and i had no response. He then proceed to rape me during his turn. i had no hand, no field and a Lonefire that is at the top of my deck. 3M SCOTCH BRITE LOR.

Game 2: We went passive for many turns. No one did any stuns or whatever. Just waiting for the other player to start their combo. I managed to summon Tragoedia with very high Att points but he got rid of it. He then set up his field. I Black Rose him for plus-es. I then did major damage to him till he was left with 800LP while i have 4900LP. He then clear my field and came out Revise Dragon. He attacked my monster and ended. I summoned Card Trooper and milled 3 cards and rammed it into his Revise. Took 600 damage and drew into a card. I was left with 4300LP. He tried to rush and kill me but he couldn't. Was left with 200LP. Drew into BLS and everyone was like WAHHHH so Ying Jun just flip his facedown Solemn Judgment to show me that he had response to whatever i have. But i doubt that he had a response to Lava Golem that i had in my hand since my first draw. Burnt that last bit of his LP and won the Game. Thanks Wesley for this secret tech.

Game 3: He went first. Even though it was time but we decided to ignore the time rule and just played right through the end. And he was ok so ok lor. He slowly farm and end. I drew a card and he Trap Dustshoot me. My hand of Jain, Gorz, CS, Creature Swap, Call of the Haunted and some other Spell card was seen by him. Unfriendliness level MAX! He returned Jain. I end turn. He next turn attacked me and i jumped Gorz. He then proceed to come out No. 30 Acid Golem of Destruction. I summoned Card Gunner and milled 3 cards. No Imba mill. Creature swapped Gorz token of only 1k att with his Acid Golem and i attacked him. He jumped Gorz when my Gorz attacked. A battle of Gorz-es huh? Slowly punched him with Acid Golem and he was left with 1k LP when i destroyed his Sangan twice as he had COTH it back again. So 1 damsel and 1 hornet. (He actually had a hornet but it was an exceed material for Acid Golem in which i didn't remove  and that i paid 2k LP to maintain it for.) I had COTH and Wild Tornado (Yea, that's right!) set facedown. His hornet destroy Wild Tornado. So Tornado chain 1. Damsel Special Summoned Centipede in which my Tornado destroyed. He was left with no hand and only a Att position Damsel which i just ram over and won the game.

Game result: XOO

Overall Tourney Result: 1st with 4 wins.

Yay my ranking go up. But go up also no use. Going to serve my country real soon.

I just wanna say that it's really fun to get back in touch with YGO again and that i was so glad i brought along my Junk Doppel instead of my Agents.

TGAA vs InzectorAA

There was a comment on the TGAA vs Inzector post that I made to compare these two decks so I talk about InzectorAA from what I heard of it, having never seen it played LOL.

First let's compare the size of the engines
TGAA: 6 cards, maybe 7 ( Striker, Wolf and maybe 1 Rhino)
InzectorAA: 13 cards ( Damsel, Hornet, Centibeet, Imitation, Foolish Burial)

As shown above, the TGAA is half the size of the Inzector engine, which is a significant factor to consider in terms of consistency.

HOWEVER, TGAA engine also allows players several different tech options which would not be as viable in InzectorAA, mainly Creature Swap, RotA, Junk Synchron, Elder of SS, Tragoedia etc. So in theory, the TGAA engine size is not the only consideration we have to make.

Now let's look at the way the decks aim to win.
TGAA tends to go for early build up play with Venus and the T.G cards to produce big beaters via Synchro and Exceed.
InzectorAA like to go for early board, and win later via plusing when the opponent begins to commit to the field.

And the one thing I believe that sets the two apart is their OPENING
Strongest opening in TGAA is Venus double Ball Gachi.
Strongest opening in InzectorAA has a Gachi and a Revise AND a plus 2.

As shown, InzectorAA has the ability to open WAAAAAY better than TGAA, and the ability to thin the deck with just a Venus and Insect Imitation makes the deck's engine size less of a problem. The REAL problem is drawing all Inzector, which in theory is worse off than drawing all TG.

More importantly though, is InzectorAA clears the board to allow the boss mobs to come down safely, an issue that TGAA has always had with the Warnings and Bottomless. Because you can't Bottomless a Damsel!

So when comparing the two, the engine size may put InzectorAA players off, cos it's HUGE, it's a quarter of your deck. However it is a strong deck that if lucky, you can hide the Inzector OR the AA portion from your opponent in Game 1 and still win, and really, what side deck stops BOTH, other than Macro :P

In conclusion though, the one that LANDS the Hyperion first will probably win cos Hyperion is IMBA. InzectorAA clearly have it easier in this department, with their free backrow removal, and considering Insect Imitation, Centibeet, Foolish Burial, I think that InzectorAA can thin their deck faster to reach those Hyperion.
