Asia Championships Day 1

Day 1
Hi guys this is the untold version of the Asia Plus  Championships 2012 ,different from High Level Gaming blog and from my point of view .

Met Zack and his little dog at the KL Sentral where we took our train to KLIA Airport .Ate KFC and MCD for breakfast and studied for my exams while Shahmir was playtesting against Zack's minion .Boarded the plane at 1255pm , and the meal was terrible in the plane .I had some childhood fantasy hoping the air stewards were smoking hot but that obviously didn't come true  =(

Arrived at 5pm and the weather was perfectly fine to me , not too cold ,not too hot . Took a cab to the hotel which cost $250HKD and the taxi driver was no different the ones you will find in Malaysia  , driving like a mad fella .

Checked in our room and went out to eat some badass wan tan noodles with PORK .Couldn't get in touch with Bixuan and the rest , so we decided to walk around .With Zack , you tend to get lost .Moral of the story , never let Zack lead the way .

So we arrived back at the hotel and met the Taiwanese players .None of them speaks english so FML .Thank god for Zack , he was officially appointed as Manager of the Taiwan team and helped us communicate .The first thing the Taiwanese asked 'Do you know Sam?' .Little do they know Sam is my idol .The first thing we asked the Taiwanese 'Do you have Asia cards?' (Typical of us)

Then I managed to contact the Singapore team and invited them into our room for our lemon party.The Singaporeans  invited the Philiphines team over and our room became so crowded .Cards were flying , Cash were flying , men underwears were flying .This is what you get when you have 11 men and a boy (William Oh) in a room . I suggested us to do the human centipede or human pyramid ,naked but no one was up for it  =(

Jeff managed to contact me through facebook and his timing could not have been better .Basically he gave me advice on playing against mermails which I really needed it and I really need thank him for that as it brought my team into the semifinals as I will speak about it in detail next time .We went off to Burger King and we were dead tired after that .Zack slept with me .Shahmir with Wesley .Johan the loner .Bixuan with William cause Bixuan is a pedophile . That pretty much sums up my Day 1 .

I wasn't in this picture as I was obviously too hot for it and my looks will just make them look bad .Yes I went back hotel and studied like a nerd and slept at 3.30am .

Quotes of the day.

'We sold Zack to the Taiwan Team'

'Korean team thinks they are Super Junior with all the weird dressing'

'Singapore team insignificant.No threat '

'Sohai '

'Wesley is shorter than Andrew' Ouch.I believe my ears heard that .

'Shahmir eat pork please'

'Ching Chong Ting Tong Ching Chong Fan '- I dont know what the Taiwanese were saying.

Stay tuned for day 2 where the real fun and jokes begins .

Team MY - Tan Sung Lee, Yap Wei Keong, Chen Yau Sin

were paired with the top 8 qualified from swiss round on the day with No.1 from above playing against No.1 from the swiss. Therefore the lower teams basically had easier matchups. Therefore with us being paired with No.2 team from swiss , kick off our day with a hard pairing .

Leader:Zack ( Mermail)
A: Me(Hero Beat)
B:Sohai ( Wind -Up)

TOP 16 : Countdown
XOO
 G1:Spatial collapse caught me offguard which made it hard for me to shock ruler .After 20turns ,FML
 G2:Early shockruler naming magic since naming traps is useless.Pulled a Exacalibur and Miracle Fusion into shinning and pushed for game .
 G3:Night shoot here and there .Had 2 Heroes on the field and pulled Stratos from grave destroying 2 facedown at his endphase .Entered sudden death , he had 3800 LP and I had 7000.Shahmir and Zack had already won their matches .Basically that game, I was winning anyway .

Team Score -3-0

TOP 8 : Rabbit Laggia
OO
G1 : He open Laggia with 2 backrows.I saw my opening hand with Super Poly in hand .The moment he saw I played with Emergancy Call ,he knew this is gonna a bad matchup for him .Did a Nova and kept hitting him .He summoned an Acid Golem and got rid of my Nova eventually .Eventually I summoned Gorz and stall from there with a 3000 def token .2000 BURN !
G2 : He drew 2 puppet plant with a cosmos and d fissure .Fail .

Team Score - 2-1

In top 4 , leaders went up to pick 1 out of 4 cards where teams with same cards will play each other to avoid ANY SHIT CONTROVERSY  WHICH HAPPENED IN THE PAST and to encourage FAIR PLAY !

TOP 4 : Dark World
0X -Discontinued
G1: Easy control
G2 : Dark Smog bitching my grave .Managed to push but Grapha army proved too powerful with luck.
G3: Both team mates won .

TOP 2: Hero Beat
XX
Stack is the word. I have put in so much effort in this deck to know I would not start a hand with no monsters and to go on from there not drawing any monsters for 7 turns later. My hero beat has a higher monster count as compared to other players and I often draw too many monsters in  my hand which was my problem before the tournament .How is it possible in game 2 , I reduce more traps for additional monsters and not drawing any of them ? Bad Luck ? Am I being a sore loser? Yes maybe but karma just hit you and

I AM GOING TO HONG KONG BIATCH !

Other than that , players behind me were making fucking shit noises behind .This is the sickening part .There was a point I was just gonna mindfuck my opponent with a silly move and yet tricky one and someone goes 'What a bad hand Andrew has ' in Cantonese. He totally destroyed any mind games tricks I could have possibly done .

I was told never to interfere with anything I saw being played wrongly in tournaments if you are a watcher .So why were there players interfering my match ? My opponent was clearly ok with it till that guy stepped in. I have respected your match in the past and I suggest you do the same to mine .

So how did I prepare for this event ?
1) Trip to Singapore made a big difference
2) Constantly playing team deck on dueling network. Fuck your rating .Which is more important? Rating vs Nationals?
3) Hand shuffle everyday cause it makes my hand card more awesome.
4) Sleep early but with Shahmir's snoring , it is deemed impossible.
5) Help from Singapore friends.
6) Do not read TCG articles cause they are playing very retarded-ly at the moment .


 Shoutouts:

Jeff , I shall not add anything here cause he will fuck me up =(
Team KOI - Bixuan and I are gonna spend some quality moments together in HK .Lemon Party in HK (Those who don't know lemon party , please google it out)
Wesley, 
Mike being my punching bag with hero beat mirrors.
Team Ragnarok (DN Team)-Coolchemist , Roniwan and Vic !
Karlo from Phili .
Yung Kang for taking all sorts of meta decks to play with me and he ended up playing hero on the main event.
Joshua for being a retarded judge and wasting space on the main event .
Sam for being Sam and my idol .
You for reading my retarded post and for reading up to here .

Last but not least, this is my final post for the year and possibly forever .I lost interest in blogging as I see no reason to blog too.

Remember,

Hand shuffling does not make your hand cards better !

F.M.L. Its time to exercise my fat rescue rabbit.

If my team scrub , I will delete my team mates Zack and Amir off from facebook =)

Yes that serious .

EMO.MAX

Went to Singapore .Got pawned like a fucking dog.The match wasn't that bad but in game 3 , dog was the best term I felt at the moment . Trust me , Singaporeans are totally a whole different level .

That was really an eye opener .So many stuff and combo I saw.
 1) Malaysia's mermail fail. I have never saw any of us using them the way SG does.
 2) We have not seen any top hero beat player in MAS since Wong Fei Hung .That was fucking long ago .
 3) Bringing promo back ? We have not played promo since 2009 .Oh yes 3years TKR was stuck in album.

Made lots of money selling junk and Singapore cards are no longer cheaper than Malaysia and in fact they are more expensive than ours .

Looking at Baha and Xiam Mei's hero beat rarity , I think you could actually masturbate to it  .Goodness.

Tired to write anymore .Too much happened in Singapore after we left Marymount .The shit that happened could even be made into a movie like Hangover 3.I arrived home as in Johor from Singapore at 4am .Just imagine how much shit happened from 11 pm to 4am .

Thanks to the guys for the warm welcome especially Wesley Seek and co. Congrats to Sazabi team for winning =)

The mega awesome superb intensive harcore training

If all goes well this 14th September 2012, I will heading down to Singapore , the mother of all asia ocg land with my noob partner in crime Amir and a bunch of friends .The main purpose is to have a look at Singapore 's meta and their amazing pro techs they have . Hopefully it will benefit us in our upcoming team tournament this October .

Amir and me have been working day and night training a variety of techs to a point I have the Dueling Network intro music ringing in my head when I sleep . We have our decks ready but I feel neither of us are anywhere near Singapore standard at the moment .

Joining Singapore tournament is going to be a challenge for both of us as it is like taking a Kancil to race with 20 plus Nissan Skylines .LOL. Forgot to mention , my friend needs a staircase to emo at when he scrubs and thank god the staircases in Dhoby Ghaut are fucking huge.

I can't wait to meet everyone there such as my GODS ,SAM and JEFF ! I never got a chance to witness Jeff 's divine hero beat in action = (partly I am not worthy to play against such divine decks.

I am going sign off now .ICAEW exams this Monday and Tuesday.

Ciao. Can anyone  lend me Dolkka for tournament ? =)
