Australia vs. Korea

Watching the game right now. 2nd half just started. In 1st half, Korea has 49% ball possession and lead 1 to 0. Very nerve wrecking moment right now@ haha let's see how the 2nd half turns out.

2011 Asian Cup

As some of you know, the 2011 Asian Cup in Qatar has started.

Besides playing Yu-Gi-Oh!, I do have another hobby which is football. (soccer) What's better than playing the game is watching it in my opinion.

There are 16 qualified teams, and a total of 32 matches.

I'm from a Korean family, and yes I'm rooting for Korea in the Asian Cup.

1st Match: Korea 2 - 1 Bahrain (Group C)

From this match, I learned that Korea has improved a lot on their passing, but could improve on defense. They cut through ways and got to the goal, but some of their shots on goal were way off.

Park Ji Sung was not at his best, but was a great key player, and another player, Koo Ja Cheol, was excellent, providing both of the goals for Korea.

The next match for Korea is against Australia. I don't know why Australia is in the continent of Asia, and I fear that Korea will tie 2-2.

Australia has a strong offense, and I hope Korea can defend them, and hopefully score the first goal. No matter what happens, it will be a very fierce match.

I believe the last time Australia and Korea went against was September 5th, 2009, and Korea won 3 - 1.

I think the cup final will be very interesting and I hope Korea gets in but even if they don't, it'll be one hell of a game. :D

Storm of Ragnarok promos?

It's not confirmed yet, but by the rumors spreading around already, I think the 2 promos to be for the Storm of Ragnarok SE is Light and Darkness Dragon and Hand of The Six Samurai.

Some sites who are pre-selling these special editions have posted that the promos will be those 2 cards. Nothing is confirmed with the official YGO site or Shriek but there is a high guarantee that this information is correct.

Now, these cards in my opinion very relates to what the meta game will be in a couple of months.

Six Samurai will get tons of support in Storm of Ragnarok and it seems Konami is allowing players to get Hand of the Six Samurai easier, and trying to promote the newer cards. I know a couple of players who absolutely hate this card's effect, so we'll just have to see how Hand will be played.

Now LADD has been reprinted a couple of times and have been around for a while. This card was mainly seen in Monarch decks, and some but not that much in Dandywarriors. Currently with Forgnarchs gaining popularity, this card might be used a lot more.

Lastly, everyone was probably hoping something like Pot of Duality to be one of the promos (like me), but the card unfortunately came out only 2 sets ago. I think the best chance we have of having PoD reprinted is Gold Series 4 or 5 (after prices drop down), or Turbo Pack 4?

OCG has the best Deck Boxes

I was actually just wandering about this, where TCG normally sells deck boxes which only about 75 cards can fit in. In OCG, its's more common to find a deck box twice the size most TCG players use.

But of course, you can find a huge deck box anywhere, I just think it's more common in OCG. Just a thought. :D
