Asia Tourney Plus 2010(HK) Tourney Report

Sorry for the delay as it is hard to find internet connection at Hong Kong....

Anyway, the format use in HK is round-robin. So, it is kinda hard to play coz the game is using scoring system instead of swiss or by wins.

2:0 - 2 points
2:1 - 1 point
1:2 - 0 point
1:0 - 0.5 point
0:2 - -1 point


1st match - vs Thaiiland (Bordindej Sathitnaveskul - BF)

Game 1: He start first. After some stalling and kena some icarus, I manage to take back the lead with Caius and Chaos Sorcerer until he topped DAD and start destroying the whole world.....
Game 2: Forgot the detail. All I remember is that I keep using the Drill Warrior loop and some direct attack and until I draw Chaos Sorcerer and syn with Formula for Scrap Dragon and destroy his facedown monster and attack for the game.
Game 3: Forgot the detail as well. Remember that I sac snowman for Caius removed his Bora. Then, he summoned Blizzard and synchro for Goyo and take my Caius. After that he opened skill drain, which make my holy light useless. After received some direct damage, I call of hunted debris dragon and plan to synchro Ancient Fairy Dragon and manage to force to activate his Icarus Attack(which I predict that he will use it coz he search Icarus from Pot of Duality and at the previous turn) I discard and special summoned Quickdraw and summoned Holy Light and synchro for Turbo Warrior and attacked my Caius. At this point, both of us has pretty much use up our resource as he had only 1 hand and the only skill drain on the field and I have my last copy of my quickdraw in my hand and Turbo Warrior on the field. My life point at that time is 1300lp and he's around 5000++lp. I ended my turn. During his turn, he manage to topped DAD(WTF!!! AGAIN!!!! SIGH!!!) attack my Turbo Warrior which lead me 1000lp. I concede on the next turn coz I topped spore...

Personal Result : XOX
Team Result: OXX
Alex win against Quickdandy -0
Sam lose against Six Samurai - X
I lose against BF - X

Seriously damn emo...(I mean like WHY everytime I control the game then he manage to topped DAD and finish me....)

Match 2 - vs Korea (Sin Hyun - BF)

Game 1: I think his hand is pretty bad. He start first. Set one monster and 1 M/T zone and ended. I set Sangan and Widespread Ruins and end. He passed back to me without doing anything. I flipped Sangan and attack his facedown then he chained icarus which destroyed both my sangan and my ruins. Sangan search for quickdraw and end my turn. Next turn, he summoned Bora and direct attack. I summoned Card Trooper and destroyed his Bora and set trap hole. He summoned Shura and I trap hole him. Then, I direct using Card Trooper and set ryko. On his next turn, he summoned Sirroco and Gale then half and focus and attack my Card Trooper and syn for Stardust. At this point, he had 4 hand cards and 1 Stardust and he left 5900lp my hand have quickdraw, dandy, debris, Pot of Avarice and some random cards. I ss quickdraw by discarding dandy, syn it for Nitro Warrior and normal summoned Debris and take back dandy and syc for Ancient Fairy Dragon. Then, I activate Pot of avarice which pumped Nitro Warrior into 3800 atk and flipped ryko choose to destroy his stardust thus forced him to use stardust effect to negate it. Then, I direct attack for the game.
Game 2: Nothing much happen, all I remember is he keep trample me with his Arms Wing until I died.
Game 3: Some ruling error here(which I dont want to discuss about it) which cost my game..

Personal Result: OXX
Team Result:
Alex wins against Quickdandy - O
Sam wins against Six Samurai - O
I lose against BF - X (This Korean player like to summoned stardust... he summoned stardust every game..)

Match 3 - vs Macau (TBA - Six Samurai)

Game 1: 1 True Shein, Kizan and Warning and Magatama on his backrow. I have a monster hand. End of story.
Game 2: Forgot how I win, remember using Caius for the game.
Game 3: Seriously bad memory, forgot how i win.

Personal Result: XOO
Team Result:
Alex wins against some random standard gemini/hero deck - O
Sam wins against Lightsworn - O
I wins against Six Samurai - O

Overall Score:
MALAYSIA 8.5
KOREA 7
THAILAND 5.5
MACAU -0.25

The reason that we have random 0.25..0.5 score is because of the trump card that we use. During the second round, both our team and korean team decided to use trump card which when we win. Our score will x2.25 instead x2. Of course, when you lose, your score also x2.25. Example, if I lose 0:2 while I am using trump card. My score will be -2.25 instead of -1.

Luckily, all my loses match is 1:2 instead of 0:2... Overall, my 1st 2 match gives no contribution to my team but at least I don't lose any score.

Final match - vs Taiwan (Chien Yen Jui, Money[2009 World Championship 1st runner up] - Six Samurai). This guy is unbelievable strong and funny.

Our team won the dice roll.

Game 1: I set snowman and ended. He thought my set card is either ryko or morphing jar. He summoned Kageki without using its effect and set 5 cards at M/T zone. He attack my snowman and destroy his kageki plus -1700 lp(I was lol at that time). On my turn, I draw cold wave and activate it and summoned quickdraw by discarding dandy and syn to drill warrior and I normal summoned spore and sync to formula. I direct attack using drill and formula. During main phase 2, I discard 1 hand to remove drill and then activate spore effect by removing dandy and syn with snowman to ss Black Rose Dragon and destroyed all his M/T cards. At this point, he has no card on the field nor his hand and I have a "effect removed" drill warrior and and 2 hands. He conceded during his next turn.
Game 2: He starts with 1 Gate and 1 United. At end of his turn, his field have 1 Gate, 1 set M/T, some random Kizans and Grandmaster and 5 hands. Feeling that I will lose next turn. I activate foolish burial, discard dandy then normal summoned debris dragon and sync for black rose. Before I summoned Black Rose, Yen Jui aka Money try to intimidate me by claiming that his set card is either Magatama or a Starlight Road. I ignore him and proceed summon black rose coz I will lose anyway in next turn if I don't take the risk. I successful clear his field. Next turn, he summoned kageki and kagemusha and syn for shien and ss kizan. Received a few direct damage until i left around 2000+ lp. Then, I forgot what happen but at the end I manage to search kinetic soldier using sangan but during his main phase 2, he summoned Enishi. I conceded during next turn as I have monster hand and trap stun set on the field and he have 1 true shein, kizan and enishi on the field.
Game 3 - I set Ryko. He summoned Wanghu and attack which destroy Wanghu and he set 1 M/T zone. I activate Nobleman of Extermination which removed his Chain Disappearance. Forgot what happen in the middle of game. As the game proceed to final stage, he finally activate Gate and summon Kageki and ss Kizan. I manage to destroy his Gate before he can activate it. He ss another Kizan and attack some of my random monster. During my turn, I activate cold wave and summon debris dragon which he veiler me. Next turn, he destroy my debris and pass back to me without doing anything. I set ryko and ended my turn. During his turn, he summoned another Wanghu which I destroyed with my Ryko and milled Dandy which blocked attack from kizan and kageki. At this point, my hand have spirit reaper, card trooper, and I topped Kinetic Soldier and attacked his kageki. Next turn, he topped kagemusha and he declared synchro(at this moment, Sam tell me that he just lose the match and I was like... "f**k I am going to lose too"), but Money froze for a while seaching his synchro pile. Then, he try to make me give up by saying that he will summoned Brionac bounce my kinetic and attack for the game but I know that his synchro pile does not have a Brionac since it already used by his team mates. After that, he try to reversed and take back kagemusha and kizan but it is stoped by the judge since he already declared synchro, he must ss a synchron monster which he ss Gaia. I attack his kizan and set card trooper. He passed back to me with doing anything. At the end, I flipped spirit reaper and activate glow up bulb effect and sync for arms aids the limit rebirth card trooper and with kinetic soldier I attack for the game.

Everyone is quite surprised by the match result between me and Money as he take lead at the beginning of the game until I topped Kinetic Soldier.
