Match 1

Blackwing vs. Wind-Up 2:0 - 0/10 points

Performance: 16/20 points

Duel 1: My 1st hand Kalut sort of dictated this duel. I was in control since the start and you drew your defensive traps too late after I already established field control with SDD. You tried what you could with magician & rat but my Icarus meant game.

Duel 2: The lack of Black Corn or Maestroke in the extra deck really cost you here - you had to attack into Shura and I had Kalut. On turn 5 you've made a mistake - getting Papillo to switch rat that already used effect to attack, it would be better to play Utopia here as it would cause me some issues to clear your field with DAD on the next turn. As it were, DAD did clean the field and I had D.D. Crow and topped Solemn Judgment to secure my win.

Deck: 17/20 points

You have a good main deck, Gorz is highly playable when Factory is out. However your extra deck is missing some key XYZ cards like Leviair and Maestroke. I'd try to fit those in - though probably doesn't matter now that WU will be a dead deck.
You didn't use any side deck here - maybe you had nothing specific to add vs. Blackwings.

Match 2

Zombies vs. Geargia Karakuri 2:0 - 0/10 points

Performance: 15/20

Duel 1: You had a nice turn summoning a swarm and going SDD and Karakuri Burei - unfortunately for you I had Gorz which kind of sealed this game.

Duel 2: This time after you went for the SDD Burei move you didn't attack directly fearing Gorz and you were right, I did hold Gorz once again. On turn 4 you had a misplay - I attacked with Gaia Knight and you've activated Fiendish Chain forcing you to choose one of your own monsters as Gaia can't be targetted by Fiendish. Good play on turn 7 not setting the BTH when you have Gorz in hand. Unfortunately - you had no follow up after Gorz got prisoned and I took the win again.


Deck: 18/20

Decent Geargia deck. That magic drain seems a bit random though - maybe SLR or even dark bribe would be better here. Also, Book of Moon is always helpful you can add it here maybe instead of the 1 upstart.
Side decking the Rai-Ohs vs. Zombie is a good choice.

You'll be joining the Slifer Red dorms for now. I know you can be placed higher but this time there was a strange combination of a lot of luck for me and almost zero luck for you; part of the game, what can we do? lol
Better luck in your next test attempt!
