WELCOME SA INYO MGA KAGWANG . haha JOKE

I first knew about the game when the VERY first TCG set, Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon, was released. What got me engaged with this game is the TV anime series (Back when Yugi Mutou was still the King of Games and Kaiba "screwed the rules" because he had money) My very first deck (as far as I can remember) is compiled of SD Kaiba cards piled with SD Yugi cards. My very first serious deck was actually based off of Warrior's Triumph or SD5. At first, I was interested because the deck contained Warrior-type monsters and equip cards. Then, I grabbed my best Warrior monsters from my collection and just made a (sorta) good warrior deck. Later on, during my freshman year at XUHS, I saw 3-4 boys playing Yu-Gi-Oh while I was eating my lunch (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. SO DON'T DENY IT!) I don't where it went or when I lost sight of it because I had to be serious with high school but all I can remember is that I had been away from the game since my second year high school.

After graduating XUHS and finally moving back to California, I got back to playing Yu-Gi-Oh! but it wasn't until I heard about CDOYGO group on facebook that got me interested in going back to the game. At first, some people added me because they were mutual friends with fellow CDOtaku members (and vice versa) but at first I was kinda strange but later considered an overseas CDOYGO member due to my close connections with certain CDOtaku members. And that's what you call a long and different story . . .

I purchased 2 Warrior Strike/SD18 decks and made a Gemini deck. I didn't had any winning luck to stand up to decks like Blackwings nor the money to buy staple synchro monsters like Black Rose Dragon or even Brionac (up until now sadly ) But, when I faced off against a Machina duelist, I was intrigued by the way Machina Gadgets were played and how spammable it was to summon Fortress. SO, I decided to purchase 2 Machina Mayhem structure decks and played my first tournament ready build of Machina Gadgets, which was of course a Solidarity build. However, I felt that the Solidarity build wasn't good enough to stand against decks like Gladiator Beasts nor Synchro builds. So I decided to stop playing the Solidarity build and focus on a Machina Gadget build where I try to fend off my opponent as much as I can (due to lack of budget for Pot of Duality, Solemn Warning or even Synchros, it sucked)

When I heard that Structure Deck Marik was going to be released in the TCG format, I wanted to get it for Book of Moons and Mirror Force. However, I read an article about Gravekeeper's dominating YCS Atlanta, that got me interested in using a Gravekeeper's deck. I was so satisfied with the results it have given me compared to my experience with Machina Gadgets, because it was basically a deck that can stop Graveyard usages. However, what made it disappointing was the lack of my second Royal Tribute (wanted to get three but it went down to two.) and the staples (FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!! Y U SO EXPENSIVE!!)
