 Decklist Below:

Whats that card beside Debris Dragon?!
This!

Why?
Good for early game or opening since Dragons rarely had to normal summon unless you are trying to synchro, then late game use it as Redox food.

Then what about the first card in your side?
When an opponent's monster declares a direct attack: You can Special Summon this card from your hand, then, if this card's DEF is higher than the attacking monster's ATK, destroy that monster. An Xyz Monster that was Summoned using this card on the field as Xyz Material gains this effect. 
● Once per turn, this card cannot be destroyed by battle.

This is used for fighting Mermails and Fists, Marksman direct attack is a nuisance and also, has its destruction effect retained even when skill drain is active. Debris is able to pull him back though I never done that before lol

Then he threw redox to take control of my Megalo and suicide with my other one, set 1 card and tried to end, but I activated Sphere, so back to his MP2 he tries to SS Tempest but ended up eating my Debunked.

New Implementation?

If you all followed OCG news, you all would've heard of the new implementation to the banlist for September 2013. And then recently one of the Japanese player posted this interesting list

Banned:
Heavy Storm

R1:
Giant Trunade
Spellbook Magician of Prophecy
Deep Sea Diva
Spellbook of Judgement
Fire Formation - Tensu

R2:
Mezuki
Book of Moon

UnR:
-

Special Rule:
You can only use a total of 6 cards with "Dragon Ruler" in name in your deck.

For people who have played VG before, I think you would be more familiar to the special rule. For those who don't know, here are some Examples:
1. Blaster, Dragon Ruler of Infernos x3, Burner, Dragon Ruler of Sparks x3 - O
2. Blaster, Dragon Ruler of Infernos x3, Tempest, Dragon Ruler of Storms x2, Lightning, Dragon Ruler of Drafts x2 - X
3. Tempest, Dragon Ruler of Storms x2, Redox, Dragon Ruler of Boulders x2, Tidal, Dragon Ruler of Waterfalls x2 - O

The list looks legit to me

Heavy Storm
There's no need to explain for Storm isn't it? Instantly punishing trap based decks if they set lots of back rows. Though those deck can still use cards like starlight road and stuffs, but most likely konami doesn't like a "1 card earn more than 2 cards and loses tempo" card like Oppression and stuffs, whereas trunade doesn't make your opponent lose any cards but tempo only instead. But without storm, there will be more and more skilless people setting 5 cards since they don't lose money. So there are pros and cons in both "wind" cards.

Spellbook Magician of Prophecy & Spellbook of Judgement
Judgement shouldn't exist but since it's a new card so I don't think it will go into the forbidden list. For Spellbook Magician, since its a Spellbook card + it can search Secrets, and Konami doesn't want that deck to really die, hitting Magician would be the best choice. Also, the deck is a spell deck, hitting secrets will make that deck super shitty. Colin from Duel Society will be happier to put 3 Maiden in deck right? lol

Deep Sea Diva
Look at tour guide! And for Tidal/Stream Dragoon OTK. No explanation needed I guess lol.

Fire Formation - Tensu
This part is interesting, I was asking Baha why this card was restricted. But let's say Konami wants to "Fuck Firefist but not Bujins", this would be legit. Hits Firefist Tri hard too, after the leopard + spirit combo, think whether you would wanna sacrifice your 1 and only Tensu now.

Mezuki
Vampires?

Book of Moon
Originally Baha and I were discussing about Compulsory Evacuation Device getting restricted like book of moon since its a chain-anytime-you-like card, but I told him if CED doesn't get hit means Book of Moon comes back, and there it is lol.

Special Rule
Hitting 8 types dragons is quite lame so I think the special rule is good. =D

That's all for today, treat whatever you read now as a reference only.

Tourney Report 21/07/13

Deck Used:


Match 1: Vs.???, Prophecy - XOO
Game 1: I drew 3 Maxx "C" and cancered myself
Game 2: Naturia Beast wins Prophecies
Game 3: Shien + Deck Lockdown + Imperial Iron Wall wins games


Match 2: Vs. DSummon, Karakuri Dragon Ruler - OXX
Game 1: Deck Lockdown too good
Game 2: Bureido x2 and then Felgrand wtf
Game 3: 4 Colors and I have nothing to stop

Match 3: Vs. William, Dragon Ruler - OXO
Game 1: Deck Lockdown + Shien + Enishi
Game 2: Hand was shitty so I just conceded
Game 3: Catastor and Kizan and a timely drawed Enishi

Match 4: Vs. Colin, Prophecy - XX
The game were not played by me!

Top 4: Vs. William, Dragon Ruler -XOO
Meet him again revenging for killing me recently!
Game 1: Lockdown him for 2 turns and then cowboy him, but he veilered, and then its all over since my Lockdown effect disappeared
Game 2: Naturia Beast Enishi and stuffs if I rmbed correctly.
Game 3: He made 2 dracossack with 3 tokens, super reju-ed twice drawing total of 8 cards, during my turn I pasted 2 dojo special summon Elder, normal summon Kagemusha, Special summon Kizan, attack all of the tokens. Then during Main Phase 2, I send my dojo to special summon Hand of the Six Samurai, tributed elder for its effect, he chain veiler, then I chain Kagemusha's effect to move veiler's effect to Kagemusha itself. After that I synchro Kagemusha and Hand into Shien and then send my last dojo for Enishi and bounced Dragossack and then set my Iron Wall for the final cancer, few turns later he died.

Finals: Vs. Sam, Prophecy - XOX
Game 1: He started first so I died
Game 2: Deck Lockdown + Shien so he auto conceded
Game 3: I managed to make a Shien field but he drew into secrets fate and life, he secrets and I negated it and then life for Maiden removing Jowgen and then fate my Shien, and power on his maiden, so I just died from that crazy amout of advantage.

Conclusion: 2nd... Sad, Lost to my best matchup, but it's ok, CANCER RULESS!!! Actually the difference was only 5 bucks store credits lol... Decklist below:



Maxx "C", Deck Lockdown, Imperial Iron Wall
Main deck these is to beat the 2 best decks now though fighting Prophecy is already a good matchup for this deck.

Armades, Keeper of Illusions
To fight cards that will activate during battle phase such as Maidens.

Evolzar Dolkka & DNA Surgery
To fight Prophecy's Spellbook Magician, Priestess and also, Jowgen, all of these uses effects and I had DNA against them.

Fiendish Chain
To fight against Spellbook Magician and stuffs mainly.

That's all for today... The main reason why I play this deck was because the 2 best decks are so boring now, so I wanna find something to cause cancer to people, either myself or my opponents. lolol.

Making Prophecy Extra Deck Alive

It's a little too late to post this, most of the WCQs ended, Judgment Day (Banlist) is like 2 more months, but there are still local tournaments around us that we can use these combos. Well, the easiest way in playing prophecies is to control with Kycoo, Jowgen making opponent despair. Most of the Prophecy players around my area felt that in the whole extra deck, the only card needed is only Shining Elf and the rest are hardly ever being used (Kycoo Jowgen on field > anything else). As you all know, almost all OCG Prophecies are now Blue-Eyes Prophecy because Maiden is a very violent monster which totally boost the Prophecy's damage bursting. Thus, today I shall talk about making use of Prophecies extra deck and Maiden to OTK (Exclusive to OCG only)! 

1. Maiden + Spellbook Magician + Kycoo
Maiden Targetted = Blue Eyes White Dragon(3000)
Maiden + Kycoo = T.G Hyper Librarian(2400)
Spellbook of Life remove Kycoo for Maiden, Synchro with Spellbook Magician = Scrap Archfiend(2700)
Total: 3000 + 2400 + 2700 = 8100


2. Same field as 1
Maiden activates, opponent Veiler
Maiden + Kycoo = T.G Hyper Librarian
Spellbook of Life Maiden removing Kycoo
Maiden + Spellbook Magician = Ancient Sacred Wyvern
Spellbook of Power on Librarian
Total: 3400 + 5500 = 8900

3. Maiden + Kycoo in Grave + Spellbook Magician in Hand
Summon Spellbook Magician
Life Maiden removing Kycoo
Target Maiden with a spell/trap = Special Summon Blue Eyes (3000)
Maiden + Spellbook Magician = Ancient Sacred Wyvern
Total: 3000 + 5100


4. Spellbook Magician x2 + Maiden on field
Target Maiden = Blue Eyes (3000)
Spellbook Magician + Maiden = Claiomh Solais the Hazehawk
Life Maiden Removing Spellbook Magician, xyz with Hazehawk = Leviair
Leviair effect = Spellbook Magician
Xyz both Spellbook Magician = Daigusto Phoenix
Phoenix effect => Leviair (1800 x2)
Total: 3000 + 1800 + 1800 + 1500 = 8100

That's all for today! Leaving an empty field against prophecy might not be that safe anymore! :P

WCQ Singapore & Malaysia Report + Decklist

Singapore
Since I was seeded for the last mini qualifiers, the game itself started with top 16 instead

Deck Used: Dragon Ruler
Top 16: Vs. Darius, Blue-Eyes Prophecy, -XO
He had a game loss due to a wrong card in decklist. So he started the game first with Spellbook Magicians and stuffs which I do not have droll & lock and died. Then 3rd game I had droll & lock and I made Jewel Flare Dragon - Stardust + Dragossack.

Top 8: Vs. William, Dragon Ruler - XOX
Game 1: He started the game with LADD and 7 cards from Super reju.
Game 2: I controlled his moves with Maxx "C" and then virus him next turn
Game 3: I cleared his LADD with Crimson Blader, and then forgot to count his life which was currently at 6k. He set a S/T (which I felt was something that can only stop 1 single attack) and ended and during my turn, my hand was a blaster, grave was blaster, tidal and redox and a few dragons. I would have banished either tidal or redox and search for a stream or reactan to normal summon instead of making dragossack which ate Book of Moon.

And so I died due to forgetting to count his life during the 3rd game lol.

Decklist was the exact same as what SG Best Deckbuilder - Bahamut84 from DuelingDays used, in fact both of us and another friend were using the exact same decklist. And this build not only helped me topped for locals for a few months but also helped me won 3rd place in thailand ACS and the mini qualifiers. So I don't feel there's a need for any changes. Also, it's not because of this build being shitty that causes me to lose, it was my carelessness for not counting the life points for the last game. So that's all for SG WCQ report. Next is Msia WCQ report

Malaysia
Went to Malaysia with my group of friends to find cards and also, trying to help my friend Alex.

Deck Used: Blue-Eyes Prophecy
Day 1 build


7 Round Swiss cut to top 32

Match 1: Vs. Hieratics - OO
Match 2: Vs. Prophecy - OO
Match 3: Vs. Prophecy - OO
Match 4: Vs. Prophecy (XM) - didnt fight, roll dice to decide winner and I lost
Match 5: Vs. Prophecy - OO
Match 6: Vs. Karakuri Dragon Ruler (DSummon) - didnt fight, roll dice to decide winner and I lost
Match 7: Vs. Dragon Ruler - I let my opponent win since I can confirm 4 wins will go up

The deck is what a usual prophecy had, just that I had an extra breaker in my main deck because it was day 1, I have very high chance to meet any random decks like Fire Fist and Evilswarm and I do not wanna die to them during game 1 so I decided to move 1 from sides to main. That's all for day 1.

Day 2 build

Top 32 + 32 seeded players, Single Elimination

Top 64: Vs. Dragon Ruler (K'yde Ren), OXO
Top 32: Vs. Prophecy, OO
- And then alex died, and there's no more purpose in this tournament for me since the prize is not that good too (Extra pack 4 and Gold series 2012 WTF?!)
Top 16: Vs. Dragon Ruler (Wesley), OXO but I let him win instead since he wanted to help Shamir

So yes, I mained Imperial Iron Wall, sounds cancerous right? Its a good card that helps delay dragons and mirror matches. 

Vs. Dragon players - Give opponent choice, blaster destroy it and then eat Spellbook of Fate or just leave it there and lock themselves. And then slowly with 2 star hall, farm till monsters on my field are beatdown monsters.
Vs. Prophecy - with no access to fate, I can just farm with double starhall and then beat down them in mid game. There was a game with Iron Wall on field and my opponent made my 2 star hall filled with 29 counters and I summon Blue-eyes maiden (2900 atk now) and then use Spellbook of power and he conceded

So that's all for today... Time to sleep...

Mermail Abyssocea



You can target 1 "Mermail" monster you control; Special Summon any number of Level 4 or lower "Mermail" monsters from your Deck whose combined Levels are less than or equal to the Level of that monster, then send that monster to the Graveyard. You can only use the effect of "Mermail Abyssocea" once per turn.

From the first look of this card's effect, you might find it very useless. But after playing with it I find it very interesting now. Here are some combos using it.

Mermail Abyssteus + Atlantean Dragoons + Tidal, Dragon Ruler of Waterfalls (hand or grave):

Basic
1.SS Teus, discarding Dragoons as cost.
2. Add a Sea-serpent A with Dragoons effect and Mermail Abyssocea using Teus effect.
3. Summon Ocea send Teus to grave special summoning a Level 3 Mermail and a Level 4 Mermail.
(Field: Ocea + Level 3 & Level 4 Mermail, grave: Teus, Dragoons, Tidal)
4. SS Tidal banishing Teus and Dragoons.
5. Xyz Leviair, the sea dragon using Ocea and Level 3 Mermail.
6. Detach material to SS Dragoons from banished zone.
7. Xyz Dragoons and level 4 Mermail into Abyss Dweller.
(Field: Dweller, Leviair, Tidal, Hand: Sea-Serpent A & B if you detach Dragoons from dweller)

Extended
If have the same hand + an additional WATER monster and Tidal in hand.
Same steps as the previous one from 1-3, Sea-serpent A search for Mermail Abyssmegalo instead.

4. Discard Tidal and WATER from hand to SS Megalo. Search an Abyss spell/trap add to hand.

From there you continue from step 4 of the basic version.

9. Xyz megalo and tidal into Mermail Abyssgaios.
(Field: Leviair, Dweller, Gaios, Hand: Abyss S/T & Sea-serpent if you detach from dweller)

Advanced
You can also do this way as the same hand as extended version follow the same steps till you xyz with Dragoons and Level 4 Mermail.

8. Xyz Bahamut Shark using Dragoons and Level 4 Mermail.
9. Detach Dragoons SS Mermail Abysstrite and search for Moulinglacia the Elemental Lord
10. Xyz Mecha Phantom Beast Dragossack using Tidal and Megalo
(Field: Leviair, Dragossack, Bahamut, Trite, Grave: WATER,Dragoons, Level 3 Mermail)
11. Dragossack release itself to destroy Trite, Trite effect ss Mermail from grave.
(Field: Leviair, Bahamut, Mermail, Grave:
Megalo, Tidal, Dragoons,Trite,WATER)
12. SS Moulin from hand discard 2 hand from opponent
(Field: Leviair, Bahamut, Mermail, Moulin)

Ocea and Teus can do many things! :D That's all for today!

Thailand ACQ Tourney Report

It's been quite a long time since I posted something haha... Mainly because I do not have anything interesting to post and had joined Bahamut84 and Dsummon for Mon Hun. Lol... But this time I went to Thailand together with Baha and Alex to support all our Asia rep friends and to fulfill my promise with Sam. And since we do not have anything to do there and we are allowed to join another countries qualifier now, all 3 of us went and registered. So here it goes my report:

Participants: 156
Deck used: Baha's Elemental Dragons
Format: 3 rounds Swiss cut into top 29 + 3 seeded and then Swiss again


Match 1: Vs. Photon - OO
Game 1: He start the game by setting a monster and a set card and ended, during my turn I made a dragossack special summoned 2 tokens, tribute 1 to destroy the set card and he chained - threatening roar, I set book of eclipse and ended. During his turn, he summon babaros and flipped summoned photon wizard, turn it to level 8 which I chained book of eclipse to turn everything face down, he end and drew 2 during his end phase because of eclipse effect. Back to my turn I flip summon dragossack, remove my last material to special summon 2 tokens, synchro the 2 tokens into burei and turn photon wizard to attack mode, made a big eye to steal babaros (now 3k atk) and go for the kill.

Game 2: I drew all 4 colors lol

Match 2: Vs Prophecy
Game 1: I forgot what happened he had a field of jowgen, priestess and kycoo at one moment, I cleared the jowgen with reactan, removed 2 dragon from hand to special summon blaster from grave, searched a lightning and redox from deck, discarded lightning and redox, xyz big eye and stole his priestess and banish it to draw 2 with seven star sword. And from there he drew nothing and died.

Game 2: After much struggling of killing 5 jowgen, I finally died to high priestess...

Game 3: Time is called, I synchro thought ruler with blaster and brandistock and set eclipse. He monster reborn my blaster tried to attack me, I chained eclipse and he set 4 cards, drew 1 card from eclipse effect and ended. Back to my turn I flip summoned my thought ruler and attacked he chained book of moon which I paid 1000 to negate and destroyed my blaster, I gained 2800 life from thought ruler effect and ended. Back to his turn he activated 2 upstart and conceded.

Match 3: Vs Air (last year's Thailand representative),Elemental Dragon - OXO
Game 1: He start by discarding burner and eclipse which I chained maxx c and then he continued to do and and took back LADD and then tribute both dragons for it. Then I use dragon effect + book of eclipse and crimson blader him

Game 2: he made a field of REDMD, LADD and crimson blader, I had no monster on field, a set eclipse and a scarecrow, I went and made a mistake by discarding scarecrow + book of eclipse and then die from there... I should have just scarecrow and left 100 and leave my eclipse for combos lol and he don't get to draw 3 from it too...

Game 3: 4 colors + maxx c is good

And so I made it to the top 32
Top 32 Swiss

Match 1: Vs Boss (that's what he told me to call him), Agent Angel - XOO
At first I was like "oh no am I going to die to agent again?!" Lol
Game 1: I did a field of ancient sacred, dragossack but he had gorz, I cleared it and he made black mist to kill it, I paid 1000 life to revive back and he after that black luster to remove it and then I died...

Game 2: I had 4 colors again and otk

Game 3: Time is called, he summon Venus pay 1500 for 3 balls set a card and ended, confirmed that he had Kristia but dunno why that move instead of xyz, I cleared 2 balls and made a dragossack and destroyed his last ball after spawning tokens, back to his turn he normal summoned earth and searched Jupiter, I chained book of moon on it and then he attacked my token with his Venus and ended, back to my turn I special summoned tidal, blaster and tempest back from my grave and attacked, he special summoned gorz from my 2nd last attack and I cleared the token during main phase 2 and made a big eye to steal his gorz and make another dragossack using the gorz and my dragon, I then tribute a token to destroy my big eye and then spawn tokens leaving his gorz under my dragossack. He conceded next turn after showing his hand of Kristia and black luster with 5 fairies in grave.

Match 2: Vs. The Doy (Thai Rep), Prophecy - ???
I finally met someone I know and he said he wanted the win so I let him win.

Match 3: Vs. Dragon - OO
Game 1: Otk
Game 2: He discarded stream and I chained maxx c, he end his turn by leaving it on the field alone, back to my turn I discard burner and tempest, he chained maxx c too, i special summoned tempest from grave removing burner and blaster from hand, searched blaster using blaster effect, then I made dragossack and remove xyz for tokens, he thought for awhile after drawing his 3rd card from maxx c effect and passed. I tribute 2 tokens for blaster and then electric virus his tidal and go for OTK.

Match 4: Vs. Evilswarm - OO
Game 1: He start first but ate blaster and then I flood and kill
Game 2: He start first with ophion and I electric virus him remove his xyz to search from infestation terminus and flood and kill

Match 5: Prophecy - OO
Game 1: He started with a very weird play. Activated judgement day and then summon lily, activate power on lily and then book of moon her. Then search 2 books and special summon spellbook magician from deck, back to my turn I xyz big eye and stole his lily and special summon back my tempest and attacked, paying 2k for the 3k pump. Then back to his turn he activate secrets search for spellbook magician, summon it and I veiler it, he conceded

Game 2: I had 2 droll and lock bird and his tempo being locked for 2 turns and can't catch up so he died.

And then after that The Doy won his opponent and then he represented Thailand for Asia and after half an hour of looking at him going up and down from the stage, our thai frens wanted to bring us for dinner so we left. Then next day during breakfast, The Doy told me that I won 3rd...

And then here's my trophy, ironically my 1st trophy isn't a Singapore trophy -.-"

And then on the Asia championship day itself there's a side event for a box of JOTL and the score is below:

Participants: 44
Deck used: Baha's Infernity
Format: 6 rounds Swiss

Match 1: Vs. Prophecy - OO
Match 2: Vs. Evilswarm - OO
Match 3: Vs. Heroes - OO
Match 4: Vs. Elemental Dragon - OO
Match 5: Vs. Firefist Quad - OO
Match 6: Vs. Incarnate Dragon - XOX

And then I got 4th and the prize distributed was for only 1st-3rd -.-"... And Alex got 2nd lol... Overall I find either something wrong with the place aura or Baha's deck love me lol, look at last year's Msia Asia, also using Baha's hieratics, really best deck builder... For the infernity decklist u can go to duelingdays for reference... That's all for today, time to sleep...

Basically the main deck is exactly the same as the verz used by the famous Japanese duelist J-speed. And every card in the deck has its own purpose.

Monsters - basic cards in evilswarm except dark armed.

Dark Armed
Vs. Firefists - helps clear all the advantages that opponent gained in an instant
Vs. Prophecy - Ophion + EEV then dark armed, sure pass 3 turns kill
Vs. Dragon - One of the ways to clear turn one dragosack in ACQ, due to not having evilswarm bahamut.

Epidemic Eradicator Virus
I'm playing a dark deck, maining this is legit.
Vs. Firefist - calling magic for level 3 build will instant wipe out them, do that after opponent panther for assurance. Level 4 doesn't affect much since their magic and traps are balanced.
Vs. Prophecy - my opponent started first and judgement for 5 cards, I EEV and top draw Dark Armed, instant scrub
Vs. Dragon - Very useless against this deck! Calling spells had a higher chance though, but my opponent showed me Return from D.D, their only trap.

Torrential Tribute
Evilswarm is one of the only decks that can make full use of torrentials now. For instant clear field and then otk.

Xyz Reborn
This is what makes this deck so attractive to me now lol
Vs. Firefist - Opponent's bear thought he had cleared the path, think again :D
Vs. Prophecy - Reveal 3 books Reveal John, Chain xyz reborn :D
Vs. Dragon - J-speed specially tech this just for this deck I guess. 1: Dragons don't run MSTs in main. 2: Blasters are sure to target front row Ophions rather than backrows, after clearing the Ophion, they will sure use up a few dragons effect if u chain to their effect. And Blaster effect is sure to be delayed one turn or two after this. Same thing goes for Exploder Dragons.

Scarred Warrior
Why this? Instead of catastor?!
Ans: This card can help to fight Consecrated Light.
Why this? And not android?!
Ans: This card can also fight firefists in case they had Tensen, and since he won't be destroyed by battle, ur chances of surviving next turn increases. 2400 in this game is of no use now, increasing 600 life is a joke nowadays.

And then... That's all. Sadly, bahamut isn't allowed in this tournament due to duel terminal restrictions, otherwise turn 1 dragosack won't be that hard to clear. At least with bahamut, there's a chance to big eye tcg each other ( ̄◇ ̄;)
