ihop Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 So yeah, I'm playing HERO Beat, 28 players, 5 rounds top 8 [spoiler=Deck] 3 Thunder King 3 Alius 1 Stratos 1 Evocator Chevalier 1 Honest 3 Spark 3 Miracle 2 Duality 2 E 2 MST 1 Rota 1 Book 1 Dark Hole 1 Storm 1 Reborn 2 D Prison 2 Bottomless 2 Compulse 2 Warning 2 TT 1 Hero Blast 1 Solemn 1 Starlight 2 Shining 2 Blade Armour (need to get a Gandiva) 1 Zero 1 Gaia 1 Great Tornado 1 Nova Master 1 Dragon Knight Draco-Equiste 1 Excalibur 1 Butterfly Warrior 1 Utopia 1 Utopia Ray 1 Maestroke 1 Stardust (I'm in Europe, no Escuridao D:) 2 Needle Ceiling 2 Imps 2 Skill Drain 2 Snowman 2 Super Poly 2 Kinetic 2 Shadow Mirror 1 Mole [/spoiler] So, Round 1 (Glad Beasts) 1: I storm his 3 backrow and even though I play awfully I can still eventually win with Thunder King Beats 2: I Snowman his Laquari early game and then I have a backrow for every one of his monsters while constantly attacking with an Alius 1-0 Round 2 (Wind-Up) 1: He Storms and OTKs 2: He draws meh and I can just beat him down 3: He opens Decree, MST, Dust, Storm, Rat and Sangan and can do nothing when I summon Thunder King and then Miracle a few turns later 2-0 Round 3 (Rock Stun) 1: This is a really easy matchup and I have Bottomless/D Prison/Bottomless to get round him. 2: I forget to side out Maxx C which actually comes in handy when I discard it on attacking Giant Rat. He gets Kinetic but I have D Prison and apart from that he draws almost nothing and has 2 Block Golem in hand. 3-0 Round 4 (Wind-Up) 1: I open Alius + 4 backrow and OTK got nothin on that 2: I'm in trouble early on, I end up setting a Maxx C which he thinks is Snowman and doesn't want to attack over for game even though he could have had it easily, but I drew no good backrows and eventually he makes Butterfly Warrior and wins. I quickly side out Warnings and Solemn before time is called. 3: Time is called turn 2, I think I've won with Snowman/Thunder King out but then he makes Zenmaines, Dark Holes and does 4500 which I can't get back. D: I chose not to negate with Thunder King because he hadn't Normal summoned so I thought I could Thunder King something better. 3-1 Round 5 (Geargia) 1: I Spark his Armor and he can't recover. 2: The game goes into a really long grind game which he eventually wins due to Fortress crashing my stuff. 3: Time is called just after he Warnings and Solemns so I instantly make Maestroke and he can't do 6000. 4-1 I make top 8 in 3rd Top 8 (Prophecy) 1: He opens Priestess and I open Bottomless and TT, both of which are useless. He wins soon after 2: He draws 2 Priestess but I make Thunder King so his Spellbook Magician can't resolve and he can't get 3 Spellbooks in hand until very late at which point I have many outs. 3: He gets me down very low very fast but then I Super Poly with his Strength for Nova Master and Miracle into Shining and he can't do anything about that. Top 4 (Geargia - yaaay) 1: He keeps saying he's drawn amazing and he's going to win but I TT on his 2 Fortress and he loses. hahaha 2: I can't do anything against his swarming 3: I think I've drawn terrible but then draw RotA, Super Poly for Gaia with his Fortress, then Spark his set Kinetic Soldier and win quite comfortably. We split 2 TU08 each in top 2, he pulls nothing and I pull an Ultra Skill Drain. Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synchronized Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 You only get 2 Turbos each for such a big turnout? Damn. My locals gives out like 3-4 for 16 players for Top 4 split. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justice Master Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Good job. Did you see any decks that really stood out? I mean, just as being unexpected at a tourney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted November 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 [quote name='- Neo -' timestamp='1352575471' post='6065806'] You only get 2 Turbos each for such a big turnout? Damn. My locals gives out like 3-4 for 16 players for Top 4 split. [/quote] 50 pence entry. Geargia and Wind-Up were both fairly big which is good news for me.

Synchronized Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Oh wow. Do you get a Turbo with entry as well, then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted November 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Nope, but 50 pence is something I'd pay just to enter a tournament even with no prizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeppeli Gyro Supreme Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 I feel like these threads should go in the News and Information section, but I guess that's up to the mods on that. Anyways, sounds like you did really well. Grats. Ever plan on running a different deck, though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted November 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Not for the rest of the format with the exception of maybe Chaos Dragon, I picked up some of the stuff yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azphreal Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Deck looks pretty similar to mine. Good work at the tourney. But damn, fifty pence. I pay eight bucks for mine, but top prize is usually like four or five boosters from stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
