Match 1

Blackwing vs Gravekeepers 1:2 - 10/10 points

Performance: 18/20 points

Duel 1: You played everything out well and good choice destroying the tuner. But you were in a very tough situation and any monster I'd draw would be a win for me. Unlucky for you I did draw a monster.

Duel 2: In turn 3 you didn't raise Leviathan's attack. Perfect counterplays otherwise

Duel 3: Topping Dark Hole basically sealed the deal here in combination with Tour guide into a 3k beater. There was nothing I could do.

Deck: 18/20 points

Solid deck but the tour guide engine is a bit dodgy with Night Assailant. It's a cool tech if you ever find yourself facing something that makes you discard your hand but that's hardly ever happens, not to mention that Necrovalley stops the effect too. Tour guide simply isn't what it used to be without Sangan.

I find Maestroke to be a staple card, especially when you run Torrential Tributes.


Match 2

Zombies vs Agents 2:0 - 0/10 points

Performance: 16/20

Duel 1: Played well but I had a counterplay for almost anything.

Duel 2: Summoning Earth while you had a Rai-Oh on the field which canceled your search. Me topping Dark Hole damaged you really hard and hitting Kristya with Spirit Reaper only made it worse for you and secured the victory.

Duel 3: N/A


Deck: 16/20

I think Compulsory Evacuation Device (CED) isn't that great in this deck. Sure it can bounce back your monsters from harm or stop extra deck monsters, but if you want that then you'd be better off maxing Forbidden Lance since it's less situational and more versatile. I'd also max Tragoedia.

As for the side deck, Stardust Dragon will always be better than Flashing Carat Dragon. I'd also rather run Utopia and Maestroke over Abyss Dweller and Blackship of Corn, but I honestly doubt you'll be XYZ'ing a lot to a rank 4. You only have 2 Rai-Oh and 1 Honest; and their effects are worth more than those XYZ. Black Ship handles monsters like Zenmaines, but the fact that you can XYZ to a rank 4 already means that you had a Rai-Oh on the field which can negate Zenmaines' summon. It's better to add another Gachi Gachi Gantetsu and a rank 3 beater (either Leviathan Dragon or Muzurythm).

Total: 78/100

Bonus:

Attitude: +2
Different decks: +3


Grand total points scored: 83/100
