Leonard Ludwig is the defending store Champion, and overall
the second place seed into the tournament, after losing his first place
position to Uy Tu yesterday after having a bad record and dropping after three
losses. Leonard comes in today playing the same deck he won with a month ago,
Machina Gadgets. His Opponent, Andre Montalvo is playing a Lightsworn deck, a
deck that is one of his personal favorites. He has come in at the seventh seed,
after remaining on the low-end of the rankings all month. This is round one!
The two start off with a die roll, which starts out with
both players rolling a six, so they reroll, Leonard gets a 6, and Andre rolls a
three. Leonard decides to play first.
Leo starts the game off by setting two cards in the Spell
and Trap Card zone, and passes his turn to Andre. Andre activates Solar
Recharge, discarding Jain, Lightsworn Paladin to draw two cards from his deck,
then sending the another Solar Recharge and Pot of Avarice from the top of his
deck.
Andre looks through his hand and says it isn’t very good. He
continues by normal summoning Lyla, Lightsworn Sorceress from his hand, only to
meet Leo’s face-down Bottomless Trap Hole. Andre sets one, and passes his turn.
Leo continues the trend of his previous turn, and sets
another card face-down, and passes his turn back to Andre.
Andre summons Luminia, Lightsworn Summoner to the field, and
after Leo allows the summon, he discards his Gargoth, Lightsworn Warrior from
his hand, to Special Summon it back to the field, but Leo chains to Lumina’s
effect with Maxx “C”! Once Gargoth is summoned, Leo draws a card from his deck.
Andre has his Lumina attack Leo directly for 1000! Then has
Gargoth attack directly, but Leo activates his set Dimensional Prison to stop
the attack, and banish Gargoth!
Life Points: Leo-7000/Andre-8000

Hunter, Foolish Burial, and Aurkus, Lightsworn Druid from the top of Andre’s
deck to the graveyard.

Gadget, Forbidden Lance, and Solemn Warning. He adds the Red Gadget to his
hand, and normal summons it, activates it’s effect to put Yellow Gadget into
his hand.

cards on the field, and Leo Chains Forbidden Lance, targeting Judgment Dragon
to lower it’s ATK to 2200. Also destroyed were Call of the Haunted and Red
Gadget, along with Andre’s Torrential Tribute.
To everyone’s surprise, Andre Special Summons another
Judgment Dragon from his hand! Leo has 7000 Life Points, and the two direct
attacks will deal 5200, so Andre activates Monster Reincarnation, discard Wulf,
Lightsworn Beast to return Jain, Lightsworn Paldin to his hand, and Normal
Summons it.

Position to destroy Leo’s set Dimensional Prison.
Moving on to the End Phase, Leo responds with Macro Cosmos,
one of a Lightsworn Player’s least desirable cards to see flipped up by their
opponent. Andre sends the top three cards of his deck to the Banished Zone,
