Quick update for Asia Championships 2012

Updated with photos for the later part of the day!

One of the benefits of being the head judge involves getting the deck lists for all the players so I can actually look through and know what I expect to see on the tournament day itself. This especially helps me know what are some of the ruling issues that may happen which I should look out for and read up on them first. Without further adue, here is a breakdown of the decks that appeared in our Singapore qualifiers today!

  1. ThanKs for the updates! Helps us for those who cnt make it. Glad that both Singapore rep made it. But would like to know Why Jeff managed to go up for finals instead of Korea? I mean wad was the judging factor since both got 2 wins.

  3. Konami used time to finish the duel as a tie breaker.

    Yes, i recorded down the asia finals, but it will take awhile to put up, pretty tired out

    Just noticed, thanks!

    In all, will try to update the post with photos and stuff soon.

  4. I don't quite get it, how did the time factor play a part again in deciding who goes up for finals between Jeff and Korean rep? Cause from spectator's point of view, Korea rep played faster games regardless of whether he won or lost as compared to Jeff?

    1. Korea rep already had a time out when playing against Thailand while Jeff had none.

  5. Btw what country is Jeff?

  6. Jeff is from Singapore but he was not representing any country per say, as he was invited back to participate as the previous Asia Champion.

    Approximate game times for Jeff and Korea rep during Round Robin format were as follows (Once entering time out, its considered as a full 35 minutes)
    Jeff vs Thailand (35 mins) - Jeff wins
    Jeff vs Malaysia (15 mins) - Jeff wins
    Korea vs Thailand (35 mins) - Korea lost
    Korea vs Malaysia (25 mins) - Korea wins
    Jeff vs Korea (30 mins) - Korea wins

    Well not that the last one really matters, since both of them will have the same time regardless, so actually, the game was already decided before they even started playing. The only difference it would make is if Jeff won, Malaysia would have become 2nd in the group as Sam had lesser time then the Korea rep and they would both only have 1 win.

  10. Ninja Heiretics, does that deck run BLS also and chaos zone?

  11. I'd like to pose a challenge to the guy who posts stuff on this site. Can you make a really good deck that relies on Toon monsters (yes, the monsters pegasus used in the anime)? I would just like to see if it is possible in today's metagame.

    If you have successfully made a deck like this, let me know at danielsfelix@rocketmail.com
