17-18 december

Undercurrent, Papaverweg 265, 1032 KJ Amsterdam

 

 

 

Who's going to this?

 

I'm tied for first place in the ccg ranking for my region and the regional champion wins travel and accommodation to this. We've yet to figure out who's winning (probably gonna have to duel for it), but I'm going if I get the trip!

I will be there.

Would love to make this, but being sandwiched between YCS Bochum and Xmas is just too difficult to make. CCG events are usually a blast as well, I would recommend them to anyone who's on the fence about going.

[Me. 1304]

CCG events over konami events, not even close.

[Me. 1304]

So I'll be going to this (thanks to ccg).

 

I haven't talked that much to AlMacuby on here, but I how we can meet and be friends anyways. I want that experience of dgz community irl too.

dunno if I'll be in Amsterdam the 17th but if I am I'll have a drink with y'all

I probably won't have access to the internet while I'm down there as my phone is too old (nokia represent), but maybe we can exchange phone numbers when it gets closer.

I also have no idea how much free time I'll have to drink since it's a sponsored trip.

[Me. 1304]

The event was quite nice, although they still have some details they can work on improving as tournament organizers. I would definitely keep going to their events and continue support ccg as they definitely have the potential and opportunity to improve on their flaws if they get the correct feedback from the players.

Just below 160 players, I bubbled out at 5-3 where 6-2 could be a top on tie breakers.

 

Rewatching the feature match, I notice the plays I could have made to win so it's definitely my own fault for not topping. I think I could have found the correct plays at the event if I would have had more experience/knowledge of my opponent's deck as I missed the way he could do the last damage (snow banish the level 8 shiranui synchro from field and solitaire from grave so he could get a 2nd attack with the synchro) and thought the plays I did were safe.

 

Overall, I was not happy with my deck choice and I knew going into the tournament that my deck wasn't the best deck. It was however the best deck I could reasonably access and I think that I was able to make the perfect main deck giving those restrictions, which I'm happy about as I had very limited time to prepare.
