Hi guys what's up? I've left Brawl for Yugioh now due to Yugioh being MUCH closer to me (there's a card shop a few minutes away that has tournys 3 days a week). It's... a lot different than smash. All you see is top tier stuff (which makes sense seeing as you have to buy the cards yourself and they can get expensive). They do have a Melee setup at that shop too, though they just have 3rd party wireless controllers with low batteries and a very laggy HD TV. I couldn't even get off Jigg's Uthrow Rest on Falco on that. None of the people there play Smash much though, and didn't seem to even realize competitive smash existed (except one guy who kept saying "Jiggs is so broken!" when I picked her, except he had never actually played the game himself which was weird.)
****ing Mermails, Fire fist, Windups, and Macro Rabbit ruining souls Kevin!
I topped the first local I attended with people who have played for a long time going 3-0-1. I beat Six sam, Glad beasts, and Macro rabbit. Tied with the 4th player for a higher placing. I ran the build I'm gonna post below. This Gravekeeper build has been giving me much success. I also think with tachyon galaxy coming out, GK's will gain ALOT of use since Necrovalley shuts down Elemental dragons by a lot...
Note, I just got an effect veiler, 2nd forbidden lance, and return from a different dimension. The only difference during the tourney was that I used two compulsory's, 2-3 different cards in my side deck, and 1 less lance (Obviously lance is a godly card, but expensivo). The only cards listed below I do not have are Xyz monsters Abyss dweller, Zenmaines, and Blackship corn. I instead used grenosaurus and leviathon dragon.
