Match 1Blackwings vs. Burning Knucklers 0:2 - 10/10 points
Performance: 18/20 points
Duel 1: Clean win for you - I was stuck with only destructive traps vs the Barbaric Soldier. No mistakes noted.
Duel 2: This duel was more interesting. You played it cool and got nice pluses off Glassjaw's effect; also, a well top-decked heavy storm is always nice. One mistake I noted was maybe you were a bit too early with the Dark hole considering consecrated light would prevent me from attacking anyway. At the last turn of the duel you were lucky I misplayed there and for some reason didn't activate prison on Cestus that would mean a win for me; you should have really attacked with Headgear first to insure the win. You caught a lucky break there.
Deck: 18/20 points
The deck looks really balanced - only thing I find missing is Solemn Judgment - the card is too good not to run.
Your side deck of consecrated light and D.D. Crow was smart.

Performance: 15/20
Duel 1: You had a pretty strong opening with Shi En and Grandmaster - unfortunately you didn't have a real defensive trap to set so I took control with my XYZ spam. You did what you can with the BRD to stall my win a bit - but it wasn't enough to allow you to make a comeback.
Duel 2: You went for the 1st turn Kageki play - but I had Maxx "C" to gain some card advantage. This time you had a trap - Warning on my Kinetic which allowed you to setup your next turn - here I think you made a mistake wasting the Kageki, you should have went with only Spirit and Shogun summon and keep Kageki in reserve for next turn as you also had Enishi in hand. As it turned out - I again swarmed the field and cleaned your monsters. On the next turn you were left with only the Enishi so it couldn't use its effect.
Deck: 17/20
You have an OK build - though I think a little too low on the trap count; you're missing Double-Edged sword technique which is really a big card - and I'd maybe also find room for prisons or compulsorys to help protect against opponent's stuff.
Your side deck of Rivalry of Warlords was good (though you didn't draw it unfortunately) - but never take out your Bottomless Trap Holes vs. Wind-Up - it's one of the better traps to stop their swarms. You might want to consider Maxx "C" for your side.
