Match 1

Blackwing vs. Gladiator Beast 2:1 - x-o-x - 5/10 points

Performance: 13/20 points

Duel 1: You've placed all the chips on the big play on turn 2 - but your Gyzarus took the warning. With your hand holding Judgment it would be more cautious to just wait a turn and have the backup of judgment ready for a Gyzarus play. You didn't have enough protection after that and I took the game.

Duel 2: You've played a good control duel here. The Shock Master play blocked me for two turns buying you the needed time to setup for the win.

Duel 3: Again, you've went for the big play on turn 2 - this time I had Icarus attack ready. It's generally better to not set a back row before summoning - as it just became a sitting duck for my Icarus. Again, after that you ran out of options pretty fast.

Deck: 15/20 points

You have a nice build for your GB deck. However, I think running 3 Prisma is a bit too much as they have a tendency to clog in hand; 2 should be optimal. Also, I'm not a fan of Respite; didn't get to see it in the duel though. Maybe you should consider running Waboku instead.
About the extra deck - I see you have some random synchros there - so here's a tip - take them out and add the E-Heroes - Shining, Zero etc. Then you can easily use Super-Poly in the side deck which can be very handy vs. some decks.

Match 2

X-Sabres vs. Inzektors 2:1 - o-x-x - 3/10 points

Performance: 11/20 points

Duel 1: You got to a nice start with trooper and a good back row. I was caught a little off-guard having not seen Inzektors in quite a while. The key move was hitting my TT - 50/50 choice went your way. I didn't stand a chance after that. Nicely played.

Deul 2: Again, you went for an all out play on turn 2 - which got stopped by book of moon. (This time you missed the correct face down) Then you were left with not too much options - you should have used Centipede to get Giga-Mantis and attack the Hyunlei before you summoned Zenmaines. At any rate next turn it was over with the Faultroll.

Duel 3: This duel was the most interesting; going for back and forth control. Siding the D-Fissures vs. me was a good move - unfortunately it kind of collides with the Mystic tomato. Then there was the play of Armaggedon Knight followed by Dark Hole - you should have first used the DH and them summon the knight and you had a clear shot there. Bad luck with the draws on the last couple of turns; you got only dead monsters there unfortunately.


Deck: 13/20 points

Inzektor decks past the September ban are a bit tricky to play with the limitation of the key cards. I think you should try modifying the build, maybe remove the blast with chains and find some better traps to help you in all kinds of game situations.

Shining and zero are both banned - reason I didn't use them in the test. >>

Actually, Shining isn't banned. (Zero is banned, you're right)

At any rate, it's not just a suggestion for the test duel itself - it was more of a general tip for the side deck.

DP awarded, dorm awarded and locked.
