I took a little time off because things were hectic at home. I had friends coming to town every weekend and was staying busy at work. Plus I had to dog-sit 2 Labs for my mom for 2 weeks.
But I wasn’t completely yugioh-free. While I wasn’t blogging, I was still playing and building decks. I completed a Blue-Eyes deck that I really like and I almost finished a Fire-Fist deck. I’ll be trying to get the deck lists posted in the next few days but don’t hold me to it.
I was also able to place in the top 4 (3rd) at my locals for once. It was a great feeling. I went in unprepared with a different variant of my Dragunity build that I hadn’t practiced with much and placed 3rd out of 12 people. I beat out at at least 5 people who compete at regionals very regularly and 3 that I know have been to nationals. I played against Blackwings in 3 matches, winning 2. I beat out a Ninja deck as well. I lost to a Gladiator Beast deck. I can’t recall the other matches but they weren’t anything special.
This weekend I guess I’ll be all alone because there is a regional qualifier in Maryland that most of the locals will be going to. I don’t care as much about competing anymore so I can’t justify spending the money to go. Maybe a few people will show up . . .
Anyway, that’s all I wanted to say for now. I have ideas for some topics I want to write about so hopefully I’ll have some posts up in the next few days.
