Yugioh/"Yugimonz"

[powerrave]

Honestly I really dislike DN, but a tournament does sound interesting. As for special rule or whatever, I'd say "no tier 1 decks", only meaning what is currently at the top this format.

The only deck I have now that gets close is Raidraptors, but that's probably only with Ultimate Falcon. On the other hand, with the set he comes out, there will be so much extra deck hate that decks the live on an extra deck just can't play properly or can't play at all.

Edit: Another question popped up. If one is hosted, would we be playing the same deck throughout and does someone keep all the deck lists? Or can we pick a different deck per round? This is asked so that people interested can think ahead some.

Yeah, I was thinking (and said) no tier 1 but I was also thinking about excluding tier 2, as well, just for a bit of variety. If this goes down well, I'll host some more tournaments and they'll have different gimmicks or no gimmicks at all.

I was actually thinking about this earlier today. I'd like the turnout to be enough that I needn't participate and I can judge the entire contest (i.e, keep decklists) because I'd like everyone to stick to one deck. If I do want/have to join the tournament, I suppose I'll have to allow the changing and modification of decks. Or run the tournament on the honour system :P

As for DN, I hope you can put up with it enough to just do this tournament on because it's nicely paced and I can record the matches in real time instead of uploading YGOPRO replays which no one can keep up with (I could slow it down in post but then it just looks weird and awkward.)

But would would all be considered tier 2? Could end up excluding too much decks that way.

I'd have to do my best to try and survive that.

When I think tier 2, I think stuff that used to be tier 1 and aspiring tier 1 decks.  Stuff like Yang Zing,  Ritual Beast and aforementioned examples.

[kill343gs]

My brother is a ritual beast player, but I know for a fact the 2 decks I'd be interested in playing wouldn't stand a chance against raid raptors or ritual beasts or yang zings.

So that would be a lot of decks that were ever tier 1. I do not support this.

[yugitom]

Well, not every single deck that was once tier 1. Just try going creative and having some sportsmanship for this one tournament. I might use Dustons :P I'm only trying to cater to the GTMers that say they're interested, even though they haven't played in the meta for a while. If they're up for it, I could do a normal tournament with no restrictions either now or after the proposed one because I'd like that, too.

[kill343gs]

I'd really like to see this tournament amount to a lot of really fun, gimmicky decks. If I wanted to keep playing real meta archetypes I wouldn't have quit yugioh in the first place.

I'm trying to think of what my brother could play....... Vylons or something... thats about as gimmicky as he ever got.

[ecolusian]

i may bring in my rank 1 spam deck or just bring in a turtle normal monster deck =p I feel I could get some lock down from that with the erat cards or am I being a scrub again? it can still get good power with crab turtle and I can even get some utility with dark catapulter for spell removal and don turtle for rank 3 xyz or using big wave small wave for the aforementioned lock down or just go straight for some defence bombing with high defence turtle cards and then using unity to make their defence even higher and making my opponent take loads of damage. i would have to run royal decree and since crab turtle is a ritual monster I may through in some of the ritual djinn cards, how does that sound? i might need to give it some focus, but we have time so I don't mind.

Depending on that goes I may not be playing Raidraptors, even though I do enjoy playing those. But I'm sure I can bring in some other sh** that will somehow do good.

[yugitom]

Right then, I think I'll make this post the signups, then. I'll write down all the names I've seen mentioned and please tell me if you can't/don't want to attend. By the way, because everyone works off different times, this won't be one big live tournament, every match will have their own agreed time, so don't worry about times. I don't see any reason to not enter due to time constraints short of having no time at all, which I totally understand. For now, I will exclude myself from the list because I'd rather have a judge who can keep track of deck lists and stuff but I'll jump in if one more person would do the trick.

1. Kill
2. Kill's brother
3. Trov's brother
4. Badnik
5. TRB
6. Powerrave
7. Sage
8. Yugi

I think, with the number of entrants, we'd be best off with a Round Robin format to get the most out of the tournament. Everyone okay with that? Also, Trov, you said your brother is still quite good, do you think he'd want to enter?

[The Red Blur]

I'm gonna need to get to deck buildin'! I'm terrible, though, so don't be surprised if I lose instantly. :P

EDIT: Ugh, grammar!

[kill343gs]

dude just play, its just for fun anyways

[powerrave]

If the sending of a deck list will needed, I'll read it then. For now let's see what'll happen.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by that.

[Badnik96]

sounds good to me

[yugitom]

Alright, then. But, I'd like to trust that people are using the same deck throughout.

Also, post your DN names here so I can add ya. Confirming your place in the tournament doesn't mean you have to duel anyone soon, you just have to at some point, so if I get confirmation from Trov, eco and maybe powerrave  (don't know what he meant by his latest post) I'll get the brackets up and we can sort out some dueling times.

Some Deck I made the other day, but in list form
Basically it's a funtimes.dek
I really need to get around to actually testing it on something like DevPro/etc

[yugitom]

Looks good but I hate the Brilliant engine. You joining the tournament, J?

Edit: Just saw those Pot of Avarices. What ban list you playing, J? Just get rid of 1 and you can play legally in the OCG.
