Round 3 : Slay the Dragon!

Round is over!


Well done, everybody. You can rest a while.
In the past two days, I teached you everything I know about adventuring. Well- not everything, but enough for you to go out and live an adventuring career on your own. I am confident that you will be among the well-known adventurers of this era.
As a last task, I want you to prove that you learned everything well. I want you to venture into the fabled dragon's lair and come back with their treasures. I foresee that you will have to fight the dragons that live within. If one of you wants to earn the title of my best apprentice, then he or she must slay the dragon and bring back its head! This is no easy task, my children. To survive, you must use every skill I taught you.

May luck be with you.

Scoring:
Duels are best of 3.
Players will earn points based on their performance as follows:
Winning 2-0 earns you 3 points
Winning 2-1 earns you 2 points
Losing 1-2 earns you 1 point (You earn 1 point even if you lost, provided you won at least 1 game)
Losing 0-2 earns zero points.

Rule of the round: "Rule of 3" and "Beat them with their own weapons!"
Rule of 3: You may choose to build a deck that contains exactly 3 copies of every card you include. No more, no less. Pillars and pendulums doesn't count. If you win with such a deck, you earn 1 extra point. (The original deckbuilding rules of atleast 1 weapon, 1 shield, 1 alchemy, 1 spell and 6 dragons still apply.)

Beat them with their own weapons: Instead of the above deckbuilding rules, you can choose to build a deck that contains 6 Parrallel Universe and no creatures. (no other deckbuilding restrictions apply). If you win with such a deck, you recieve 1 extra point.

Requirements: Post the decklists.

NOTE: The two "rules of the day" count sparately, meaning, both can be achieved in this round with two different decks, for a total of 2 extra points.
However, one can be achieved only once. Even if you win 2 games with 2 different "rule of 3" decks, you will still get 1 extra point, but if you win a game with a "rule of 3 " deck and one wth a "beat them with their own weapons" deck, you will earn 2 points.

Good luck everyone!

So does this mean I need to have 3 weapons, shields, alchemy, spell cards and 6 dragons? Or does it mean I need 1 weapon, shield, alchemy, spell and 6 dragons, but whatever else I add to the deck needs to have only 3 copies?

Edit: Do the 6 Dragons also have to be all the same? Can you split that differently like 3 and 3,  4 and 2, etc.?

If you wanna earn the "rule of 3" bnus, then your dack should have 3 copies of the same weapon, shield alchemy spell etc.
You can split the dragons however you like in a normal deck. Again, if you build a "rule of 3" deck, then you must have 3 copies of a dragon in it (and 3 of another dragon). You can add 3 copies of yet another dragon, etc.

Wait, do all cards that have 'Dragon' in their name count? Or is it just the beefy 10/5 etc. that count?

you allow marks and that makes it harder for those who haven't got any r know how to get them this is supposed to be reasonably balanced this tournament which is why shards,nymphs and upped cards are banned isn't it and marks are like shards where you can't get them without pvp matches and tourney isn't it newbies or people who haven't played in pvp tourneys can't get marks this tourney was supposed to be balanced wasn't it where newbies and experienced players have an equal chance to win marks, shards and nymphs give the long term players the advantage so shouldn't be allowed. Am I right or am i mistaken as to why you set up this tourney.
love makin my decks unusual if able. Chaos and luck are widely regarded as different i beg to differ just refer to :entropy but for those in the know also refer to :time and :death.

Calm down and believe me. If you're gonna lose, you're not gonna lose because I allow marks. If you're gonna win, you'll win anyways, regardless of wether the opponent has any marks. The people who have marks worked hard to collect them, and they add no real power difference to the games. That's why I allowed them and not nymphs and shards.

BTW this is a test run. A test run is about finding out how various things play out. Upon a question, I decided to allow marks and now we'll see how this plays out.
