Phase 3 - Battles

[Kael Hate]

I'll be in chat evertime I can be.

I was here from 2pm to 5pm your time and haven't seen you.

[Bloodshadow]

That was because I went to see a movie with my friend. I said I'm "basically" available from 1 PM to 11 PM, but there will be changes once in a while.

And no, we can't duel now. I've got a couple of decks made and tested, but I actually need to grind the electrums and buy the cards in the real game to build the decks.

Kael I don't think it's a matter of waiting between them times but actually telling BS what time during those your going to meet beforehand (probably 24 hour).

I cannot know that I will be available at any time beyond those I have listed.
I tried to make contact at the times he said he would be available when at the time I had learnt I could be available.

If he cannot be available in the times he said he was available then there is no choice but for him to come to me eh?

[Scaredgirl]

To prevent the same ridiculous situation that we had the last time, this time do it like this:

1. Pick a specific time that suits both (in GMT)
2. Both players show up at that time (as promised)
3. Duel

THE END


It's as simple as that.


Oh, and Bloodshadow.. I'm hoping you are not using the stalling tactics this time. Building an unupped deck shouldn't require that much grinding so just make the fight happen, ok?

[Bloodshadow]

Kael, if you're online right now, get in chat; the forum says you're on. I've got all my decks ready. I will be using my secondary account "Blood_Shadow".

Dang, guess I missed you. Oh well, I can get up one hour earlier than what I've said before: 12:00 to 23:00, with dinner break from 18:00 to 20:00. So if you can stay for one or two more hours, we should be able to get on at the same time.

Yes you missed me.
I'll try to be on tomorrow during the day matching your time if you are around.

[Bloodshadow]

I'm on right now, but my parents might drag me away to breakfast at any moment; it'd take an hour or so. Then I can be on.

Bloodshadow VS Kael Hate: 3-2

All blank cards below are Dark Pendulums. Did I mention how awesome they are? They opened up so much Duo deckbuilding possibilities.

Game 1: Bloodshadow 1 - Kael Hate 0

Code: [Select]

593 593 593 593 593 593 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5ul 5ul 5um 5um 5um 5um 5um 5um 5uo 5uo 5uv 5uv 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606
I played against an Adrenaline Vampires deck. I had phenomenal draws this game, and managed to summon four Devourers in the first three turns, as well as decimating all of Kael's pillars early on. With draws like this, Kael had little chance.

Game 2: Bloodshadow 2 - Kael Hate 0

Code: [Select]

5uk 5uk 5um 5um 5um 5um 5uo 5uo 5up 5up 5uq 5uq 5ut 5ut 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 622 622 622 622
Kael used another Adrenaline Vampires deck this time. He managed to get a couple of Adrenaline Vampires early, and I didn't draw any Devourers, so I had to Fractal my Vampires to save myself. Kael then equipped a Dusk Mantle; but very conveniently, I had a Steal in my hand. I stole his Dusk, and Fractal'd some more Vampires and Devourers. Our HP began to see-saw back and forth; eventually I won, because I had Dusk and more Vampires than him.

Game 3: Bloodshadow 2 - Kael Hate 1

Code: [Select]

5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uo 5uo 5uq 5uq 5ut 5ut 5ut 5ut 5ut 5ut 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606
This time, Kael used a Voodoo Doll and Rage Potion deck. I had two Adrenaline Vampires early in the game, so I thought I was doing well. But then, Kael suddenly threw a Fire Shield out of nowhere, which completely decimated my deck. Minor Vampires only have 2 HP, so there wasn't really anything could do, since I didn't pack any Steals.

Game 4: Bloodshadow 2 - Kael Hate 2

Code: [Select]

55r 55r 55r 55r 55r 55r 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5ul 5uo 5uo 5up 5up 5up 5up 5up 5ur 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606
After my loss the previous round, I thought I should switch to something more control-heavy; Kael played an Earthquake-Devourer deck. I had some pretty bad draws, with 5 of my Otyughs in the last 13 cards of my deck. Kael burrowed his Devourers, so I couldn't eat them; his Dragons had 5 HP, so I couldn't eat them either. I had a Dusk Mantle and lots of Steals, and it was pretty funny to see the shield exchanging owners at least five times. In the end, Kael had four Dragons, but Dusk decided to h4x for me; I had only 2 HP left, and Dusk made ALL his Dragons miss, so I can't believe I actually survived for one turn. Still, I lost.

Game 5: Bloodshadow 3 - Kael Hate 2

Code: [Select]

5uk 5uk 5um 5um 5um 5um 5uo 5uo 5up 5up 5uq 5uq 5ut 5ut 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 606 622 622 622 622
This final game would decide the outcome of the duel, so I decided to use the most "reliable" of my decks. Kael used a deck with Earth Mark, and he admitted that he had a terrible starting draw. I managed to Fractal Devourers fairly early in the game, and locked him down. He summoned a Black Dragon, which was actually bad for him, because I then Fractal'd that Dragon, and won.

Overall, very interesting and fun games. Thank you for finding the right time to duel me despite our location differences (I'm in Canada and Kael is in Australia), Kael. See you in the final battle.

Final Winner is Bloodshadow, Congratulations.
It was awkward with timing and commitments, and the only thing I hold against you was you use of Fractal after preaching against its use. I held true to not using it. I'll have to not be so lenient next time. Playing silly in the First rounds cost me a win I shouldn't have given away. See you with the upped cards in the Final Round.

PS - Thanks to PuppyChow for validating and Escrow on the decks.

[Bloodshadow]

Kael, you never said you wouldn't use Fractal. I wouldn't have used Fractal if we made some sort of "formal agreement", but we didn't. If I remember correctly, you said you would use Fractal if the situation deems it necessary, so I thought it would be a weakness to me if I didn't use it. I fully expected you to use it, so I couldn't afford to not use it myself.
