Coverage CardWars Vol. 4 Berlin

Last weekend, the now 4th installment of the successful CardWars tournament series took place in Berlin. After being inactive for quite a while in the Yu-Gi-Oh! scene, this tournament was my little “comeback” in a way as I helped out doing coverage for the tournament.

As always, you’ll find plenty of articles – deck features, featured matches, blogs as well as top 8 profiles. So in case you haven’t been following a Yu-Gi-Oh! coverage in the past weeks, this might be exactly what you’re looking for.

Oh, and by the way: You should also check out my Twitter Feed as I had been providing live updates all day yesterday!

Suppe für den soul – Realm Championship Season 4

This article now finally concludes my tournament report from the Realm Championships. As you’re already aware of the deck I was playing, how the draft went and my ultimate result, this is now the story of how I advanced all the way to the finals. As always, I’ll point out my mistakes so we can all learn from them, but this time, I also threw in a few mistakes of my opponents.

Schmutzige Picks – Drafting in Wuppertal

I wanted to write a complete report from Wuppertal, therefore I not only wrote articles about the constructed portions of the event, but also the draft. If you’re interested in longer articles and in-depth draft features, this will be exactly what you’re looking for!

Suppe für den soul -Finding a deck for Realms

Like I already spoiled on Monday, I wanted to give you a better insight on how I decided on my deck for the Realm Champs. It’s been quite some process coming up with the final list, so this should be interesting for anyone who’s into deckbuilding and who wants to get a better understanding what decisions you’re usually making when deciding on your deck.

Update on the Community Management page

Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like my homepage can keep up with the current speed of change that I’m facing in my life. Therefore, some of the sub-sites aren’t up to date and contain outdated information. I just managed to update the community management page (deleted the BattleForge entry and updated the information for eTCG.de and Warcraft-TCG.de), so let’s call that a start. I’ll soon update the Writing page as well as the rest of the homepage.

Oops! I did it again!

Last weekend, the Realm Championship Season 3 took place in Wuppertal. I was able to advance to the finals, but eventually lost there, just like I did in Amsterdam. However, Jonas, the winner – who by the way joined our team in the mean time as well -, was kind enough to offer me a prize split which I (foolishly rather) reluctantly accepted, so I’m better off than I was in Amsterdam. I tried to return the favor and he’ll now be able to use up 900 € of the 1500 € travel voucher while I’ll only use 600 € of it (although we agreed to a 50 / 50 split before).

As you can imagine, the tournament was lots of fun and I had a blast! Thanks to my great team, the Bootcamp LE (Leipzig), I could participate with quite a unique deck that was also featured in the coverage. However, I’ll still write some more lines about the developing process in my weekly column Suppe für den soul that will most likely be published this Thursday.

Additionally, Friday’s Schmutzige Picks will feature my draft in Wuppertal, providing you with a deeper insight on how I was able to make the cut for Top 8 (I went undefeated in the draft portion of the event). Once again, thanks go out to my team and all the cool people who cheered for me in Wuppertal, in the forums and on Twitter (speaking of which, you may find some more information about how the tournament went on my Twitter account).

Oh, one more thing: In case you’re interested in purchasing the PlayStation 3 Slim Edition or a Spectral Tiger Loot Code that I won, please let me know! I also got a Red Bearon Loot Code up for sale, so just get in contact with me.
