lol vongy, I just had before your post .-. the last post of last page. Just received from gradyent and I<3GB, so these to go:

Violet
NSGG
Sasori

Guys, send the lists until tomorrow evening...

received decklist from VioletSk227








NSGG
Sasori

hurry up!

Doesn't everyone need to re-submit? Unless they weren't running Mirror Force, Trap Dustshoot, Trishula, or plants. But considering how it's a synchro tournament...

Got deck from Gallade, still would need from Sasori but he doesn't seem to be active atm...

Anyone who wants to be in this tournament in Sasori's place, send the deck-list to ruler before he does and you are in

I have received Sasori's decklist, and this tournament is ready to start

I beat allanpike 2-0, I have screenshots if those are needed. I can't log into Challonge because my google chrome shits its pants and lags out every time I try.

I lost to Enigma_M7 2-1
What's the point of siding if you never draw them?

confirm ._. ggs

won 2-0 vs NSGG, ggs

Confirmed. Sackiest topdeck ever second game for the win... -_-

But gg's. For you.

still waiting for PM response from my opponent with his available times for a duel X_X

Bottom half of bracket is stacked, and top half is pretty open. I know this is Yugioh, and tourneys are run differently than fighting games, but I think we're gonna have to start implementing a seeding system. I look at the bottom bracket, and I see MUs like Funch v. Betrayer and Enigma v. Vongy Round 2. Then I look at the top half, and I see Pufka getting an easy ride to the finals. I'm not saying that no one in the top half has potential to win, I'm just saying that players with a proven track record are going to be losing really early just because they get matched up against other top players, while weaker, or haven't proved themselves yet.

It's just a thought I've had to balance out Brackets. Seeing numerous Archlords on the bottom, and having the top filled with Archers/Apprentices with 1 Archlord just seems imbalanced to me.

alright won 2-1

Gg I confirm.

I concur 100% with Skarm; brackets are soooo unbalanced it's not even funny.

And I won't deny it, pufka has quite the easy path. I sure as heck wasn't gonna stand in her way, I suck.

Challonge made the match-ups, not me...

You could try not using challonge for the next tournament and do it by skill level as NSGG and Skarm said. But for a tourney say, a sealed pack tourney I don't think skill is such a big factor.

Skill is the major factor in sealed pack lol. Unlike in constructed where you get sacked by crazy cards, it's a lot less likely in sealed pack, since most players will have to rely on actual skills than OP card interactions.

It's also a lot of luck based on what cards you get.

It doesn't mean you can't check the matchups afterwards to make sure Challonge didn't cause an imbalance in pairings. I understand that Challonge's system is just random and doesn't know the players' skill levels and all those variables, but that shouldn't be the sole excuse.

Won 2-1 against SirFunchalot, good games.

Spoiler:

I lost 1-2 to Snilly. Games 1 and 3 were really close right down to the end, but game 2 I drew poop and he got the nuts. But that's yugioh I guess. Good games, man!
