Match 1

X-Sabres vs. Plants 2:1 - x-o-x - 5/10 points

Performance: 15/20 points

Duel 1: The Caius play on my set Darksoul was the correct opening play. After that I went for the all out summon and there was not a lot that you could do after I had Starlight Road vs your Treacherous trap hole. You knew I had book of moon that I got from duality and it stopped your synchro play. After that all you could do was get Tytannial but I had Fulhelmknight to block the attack and got Gottoms for game next turn.

Duel 2: You had Veiler to stop my Cardcar D - I then used my compulsory to try and summon it again and you took a big chance and used Solemn Judgment on the summon; I guess you felt I had a bad hand. In the long run it paid off - I could only stop you for so long. I got hit for too much damage by your BLS and even after I topped the prison all it took was the burn damage from evil thorn to finish me off. Nicely played.

Duel 3: I started this duel with a major back row and set Dark Soul. You attempted to go for some summons but my Torrential stopped you. When my Fulhelmknight attacked next turn you've activated scapegoat - that wasn't such a good idea as it gave me fodder for Fulhelmknight to attack and revive the darksoul. After that I just got too big of an advantage while you have a dead BLS in hand.

Deck: 13/20 points

You have a decent plant deck based on the Lonefire/Tytannial engine with Evil Thorn and Super Solar Nutrient. I do feel it lacks in ways to counter moves by your opponents as you only run the single treacherous trap hole. One other note - you run BLS with only 2 light monsters - this is a considerable risk for it to become a dead draw even with the option you have for formula synchron. Maybe consider adding a 3rd veiler just to up the odds to have BLS summon materials ready.
For your extra deck you should add Gungnir - as you run two Snowman and the Debris Dragons.
Your side choice to add the solemns and the TKR was good, the skill drain choice was so-so as it could just turn the duel into a battle of beatsticks and I have more traps than you; however you took out heavy and 2 MSTs for them when as mentioned, I run a lot of back row; next time try to find the least useful cards from your monster line up and take them out instead. Take Decree into consideration - I think you could use it as a good side deck option.

Match 2

Blackwings vs. Scrap LS 2:1 - x-o-x - 5/10 points

Performance: 18/20 points

Duel 1: You've put on a good duel in this one. You've saved the solemn judgment for a long time - and eventually used it on my dark hole; that was a good play. Maybe the only mistake was not going for the LV 9 - Sync before summoning Lyla; but you did have Chimera in hand so it wasn't clear cut. My two top decks in a row (TT and Blizzard) gave me the win eventually.

Duel 2: Very well played in this one - you got some nice milling on the 1st turn - and used your back row smartly to deny me of every possible play.

Duel 3: In this one you had a pretty bad starting hand - you had to waste Dark Hole on my 1st turn TKR to make your duality live - but then I had traps for your Lyla. You drew Solar Recharge after the Lylas were gone and you were left with little to no options; so I just beat down with Shura for game. Good effort though.

Deck: 16/20 points

Nice to see that you took some of my advice from the previous test and added the Dark Hole and second bottomless to the deck. Also the quilbolts were replaced by TKR and Honest; TKR is a good choice vs. a lot of decks - but Honest here seems just a bit situational as you don't run a lot of Lights and Lyla most often won't be in attack position. You still kept the BLS despite running only 2 darks, I still think it's too risky and might become a dead draw.
There was no apparent side deck used here.

Congratz, your insistence to have a quick re-test payed off - you'll be moving up to the RA Yellow dorms.

Just a reply to the Bls , I only have the veil-er in main deck for light but, Formula,fairy, and queen.

9/10 if i draw it i can either play it or play into it. in terms of the siding i never know what to side, it isn't my main side deck for plants its just one i created for the test since i don't have to worry bout the top deck around. and yeh i sided in one skill drain, just in the side deck i was running i felt it could work since i got ways to bypass it,

For The bls in scraps its 2 dark's but its a high chance i am going to get 1 in grave or hit djinn's or another dark in my extra deck. Its quite situational that i will have bls and not have done one of them. +most likely a duel i'm losing anyway.

I had fun and enjoyed the duels. Tried gungair just doesn't work as useful as my other options only one i can take out is stardust, but that leaves me 1 rank 8 and since stardust is soon to become stardust radiance yeh just doesn't work.

Thanks for the advise
