http://www.sendspace.com/filegroup/b2G36ETtsgb6Ow57wf33PjJ5K%2BonmboMGame 1: Turn 2; should have chosen Skill Drain with your Duality, to offset my face down.
Turn 5, shouldn't have used Call of the Haunted when you did, gave you no advantage
whatsoever, and simply got wrecked.
Game 2: Turn 5; shouldn't have tributed. Trading 2 strong monsters, with just as much attack
points as my monster, for one monster that's bigger is just begging for me to use cheap removal
to waste your play. You should have correctly anticipated my Honest and played another Thunder
King, giving you a chance to maintain field presence, since I was unable to attack over your
swords of revealing light.
Game 3: Turn 4; went into Utopia. This was unnecessary since you had no idea what my face down monster or
trap/spell were and had no way to recover from my snowman eater. You traded 3 monsters for my 1.
Construction: Using no solemn warning makes sense in a deck running Skill Drain, but you only run 1 Skill Drain.
A Blue Eyes Skill Drain deck, in theory, should work just fine. It's nice to see a player use Kaibaman
correctly. I did, however, note that you used Thunder King with very little Skill Drain or Forbidden Chalice
to abuse his ideal effect (the special summon negating) and you ran too many searchers for a deck running
him. I'd definitely max out on the Skill Drain, as it's key to your deck's beatsticks coming online. That
said, Kaiser Seahorse is not needed, Kaibaman works while Skill Drain is in play, Seahorse does not. The
deck is missing some draw power in the form of Trade-In. You also might consider running swing of memories
or Silent Doom to set up quick rank 8 summons. That said, your extra deck doesn't need most of the synchros
it's using, with the exception of 1 Stardust Dragon (to be summoned by your starlight road) and 1 catastor.
Fill out the extra deck with big, strong rank 4 monsters, that only require 2 level 4 monsters, to give you
more options, especially if Skill Drain isn't working properly.
Performance:Your use of Call of the Haunted gives you no advantage whatsoever, and just gives me a free target to destroy
the same turn. Consider waiting til my end phase to summon a monster with call of the haunted, as that takes
away my chance to respond with summons of my own.

Same deck as used in your match. I'd prefer if you used another deck, to show off your knowledge of different
tactics, and get the maximum potential points.
Construction: No new notes; deck was exactly the same as used in the match.

Other Comments: Different decks: 0/3
Attitude: 2/2GRAND TOTAL: 43/100 You will be placed in
Slifer Red dorm. It's time for you to
branch out and learn to play more than one deck. Rather than a cool combo, try
to set up an engine before you even build a deck, then build the deck around
maximizing that deck's engine.
