I typing this on my iphone so bare with me:

So although i cant go to nationals this due to having a big event at my job on the 11th of July i still went wit a couple of my bois from my card shop in CT. I cant wait for me and my gurl to move out in august, then i am definetly not missin a beat next season.

Ne way as soon as i found out airbellum was out, n one guy at the shop had two airbellums i bought for $4 a piece, i built the deck. Nobody else was tryine to give up the airbellums so i had to go to target and buy one starter deck for a urbellum and a airbellum. So i added sarcos for the simple fact i just got em so i wanted to put them to work. So for the ride up I put on my head phones and listened to Jay-Z's new song- Doa(Death of Autotune) about 10 times. Jay straight gettin at T-Pain and any other autotune user. lol Goin into this i really didnt expect to top cuz i wasnt hittin up nationals this year unfortunatley. So this is the build i went in with, and as soon as i handed the decklist in, i didnt really like the sarcs in there with out that much defensive protection but w/e.

Round 1 SyCat Vs Macro Monarchs

G1: I get a lot of my stuff removed due to cosmos, but arcanite magician gave me the advantage i needed, and mebe an advantage player, this game was over.

G2: i lose to cauis hittin sangan and i couldnt recover. My hand wasnt doin nething special- I wish i added giant trunade, i totally forgor about that card.

G3: I bust his head open with catastrophes and lured in Gorz.


1-0, Im thinkin kool, i actually won first round unlike my past two regs. And when i lost first round i won out and went 7-0 afterwards and topped both times. So now since i won first round, im thinkin that im not toppin now, lol.

Round 2 Sycat Vs Gladiator Beast( My boi Will Read)

G1: All i remember is it comes down to me havin gorz and a mind control in hand with him having a murmillo and a solemn set. Its my turn n i top another mind control, so yea, he solemned the first n says "do you have another monster?" n i say " no i have another MC. Lol

G2: He gets me with a big gyzarus and he already had double solemn and a chariot set, and i wasnt drawin my cold waves, heavy, or mystical space typhoon.(really really wish i added trunade now)

G3: He herks up and has 2 cards in hand no back row, i have dd crow, monk, and cat in hand, im like "just let me top into a spell", cuz then i can monk into cat and cat into double airbellum, then arcanite herk swing for 3000 discard one of his 2 cards, anr be ok... I top mirror force... Moving on to round 3...

1-1

Round 3: SyCat Vs Chick runnin Lightsworn

G1 and G2: I bust her head, LS aint messin wit me.

2-1

Round 4: SyCat Vs. Gladiator Beast

G1 and G2: Arcanite Magician is Definetly the MVP today. Advantage is so good.(duh)

3-1

Round 5: SyCat Vs. Blackwings

G1: Arcanite once again does his doing. Almost feel like im running 3 Dark Arms again.

G2: I Gorz his gale, he halves it MP2, also he is under my cold wave. He sets a monster and passes, my turn i mind control his set. Its gravekeepers spy.( WOWWWWWWW), and i had cat in hand, so yea that was a wrap obv.

4-1

Round 6: SyCat Vs. Steven Schaffer SyCat Mirror Match!!........................................... .................................................. ......................................
..... But he does not have Dark Strikes or Arcanites. My boi here is 4-1 urbelluming everyone all day, massive hand control, lol. Too kool.

G1: I win but it doesnt matter cuz there were plays where if he had arcanites or DsF G2 would have been different. He bought the 2 DSF between rounds but obv couldnt add em. So this is our 3rd match against each other, but im technically still 1-1 against him. Shouts out to Schaffer!!!

5-1

Round 7: SyCat Vs. Blackwings

G1: Arcanite whispered in mah ear and said KABOOM!!! 4 times.

G2: Im sittin here tellin this guy " Yo, i have a bottomless set" dont goyo, he does it neway, and i proceed to bottomless and otk him next turn.

6-1

Round 8/ SyCat Vs. Brian Hayward Blackwings( Yeaaaa boi im at table 1!!)

Since he is undefeated he gives me the win, so we can both get in with no trouble. But we play it out and he wins 2-1. But we never sided either. But its kool.

7-1

So i top, and play this dude named Pheano Black( LS)

Top 8: Sycat Vs PB(Lightsworn)

G1: I crush guard and hits a celestia, garoth, and dark armed. I search crow with sangan from a synchro summon with airbellum into goyo.Good game Light man

G2: I just used the pro plays and card skills learned from tha Boi Cesar Gonzales and own. His prodigy movin on up kid!!! i had a very big head ache
tho.

So i get the ugly top ate....lol just kiddin... Top 8 mat and sell a plague to ricahrd ruiZ. And sell a charge to my homeboi Joe Giolardo(i kno i just buchered your last name, my bad)

Props:
-3rd top 8/4/win and many more to come.

- Arcanite Magicin Being the MVP. And he will still be for the rest of the format and further.
- Also Shouts out to ihotfirei and C strife for showin me the tomato oppression cat build, thats next on my list to try out, so many ideas!!! Btw i rly wanna try autonous action unit
- Brain Hayward being extra kool for just passin the win!

nice job man, i like the deck. and DOA is sick lol. i kept telling paul and joe to run rose when they were building it but they didnt want to hear it. 3guard/1spy is a ballsy move and mained crow is pretty crazy but it obviously paid off... u never found yourseslf wanting solemn? o well deck is solid, too bad you cant come to nats.

Wow, dude, sounds like fun.

I run blackwings but have been having many problems against Synchro Cat. How did that Brian Hayward guy beat you??

Gavii Akuma
06-18-2009, 11:20 AM
Lol, yea guard is an out to any synchro(obv) but the triple up was kool, but ima do half n half(2 spy 2 guard). n how is the crow crazy, lol,i want to just side the 3 but i wouldnt kno what i should be takin out game 2 against sworns. Along with the 2 light mirrors. Thats the one thing cesar nvr taught me thoroughly, siding, because he never sides most of the time

Additional Comment:

r u sayin that as if he were bad or how did the cat lose to the chicken? Lol

He beat me game 3 by way of icarus attack and otk next turn, with this match up its either who otks first or who has more skilled, in thi situation it would be. The otk factor.

But yea, Cat gives chicken head a problem a lot of the time. I think if we would have sided i would have taken the dub. But w/e its kool either way.

They are going to kill Synchro Cat by simply limiting DSF, Rescue CAt, and Summoner Monk all down to 1. On a different note, how come you don't run Mystic Tomato??

is that an insult or complement.

Additional Comment:

tomato is not needed in this version. But the tomato version isnext on my list to try out. Its just that with the 3, yea it fills you up fast for avarice, but i really want to get back my cats, airbellums, monks, etc. so Idk.

By the way, o yea, i already kno the deck is going to get killed...just like they did Dark Armed Return...and Glads...and Tele Dark Armed.. and now, blackwings, lightsworn and Cat are all gonna feel it. thats fine with me.

That way this will slowly but surely weed out all the bad players(hopefully) and see who has more skill like back in PC era. SO slow format(skill), or fast format( reckless, unless your playing Cat) it dont matter to me.

woooo! High 5. Naw not rly, jk. Yea yo, but actually im switching to 2 spy 2 guard. Ima see how that works and if i dont like it, then its back to 1 spy 3 guard.

I really aint tryna have my spy get mind controlled at anytime this format either.

Does Oppression work?? Oh yeah what do you think of using Solemn's in the main do you think they are needed??

How well did the mirror of oath work out ?

Gavii Akuma
06-29-2009, 10:03 AM
Actually, They really did nuthin. But I plan on putting them back in. SYcat just got even more popular because of Canada, heading into our nats thats a big inspiration. I tried 3 oppressions sided, but didnt really like em.

Additional Comment:

See i dont kno, I havent tested a buld with solemns yet. But to be honest i dont think they are needed because of heavy, mst, trunade, and 3 waves. But if you kno how to use your solemns properly then yea, having them then would just be a luxury.

Can you please explain your side deck. I'm new to Synchro Cats. I just switched from Blackwings.

Gavii Akuma
07-06-2009, 12:56 PM
Smart man,

Cat>Chickenheads


x2 D.D. Crow- Lightsworn

x1 Kycoo The Ghost Destroyer- Lightsworn

x1 Breaker The Magical Warrior- Anti meta, Lightsworn(to break their royal decrees, but not rly worth it most of the time.)

x1 Light Imprisoning Mirror- obv Lightsworn, This card is almost really not worth it because i like my having 3 dark arms here(2 arcanites).

x2 Threatening Roar- The mirror, Blackwings, and lightsworn game 3 specifically, i main deck roars now)

x2 Royal Oppression- the mirror, blackwings, GB and lightsworn (LS<--game 2 specifically)

x3 Malevolent Catastrophe- Burn, Dadrain, anti meta

x3 Mirror Of Oaths- mirror match, glads( blow their chariots to pieces, or force the solemn)

My side is different now though, but yea this should explain it if i caught ur drift

btw, i rly dont like kycoo, although he is a spellaster and can combo for arcanite, necro cant be removed, and yada yada, but i rather use triple crow, kycoo is not my style. I might have to grow to like it tho.

I like crow better because i can use it against the mirror(hurting their avarices), lightsworn, and those random kids that play monarchs and hurt their frog n avarice. Lol Kycoo is just for Ls
