==================
oo1. Introduction to Game   [001INT]
==================
THIS game is based on Expert Ruling but the horrible part is that
you have to walk around and still press "R" to duel. Not that bad
except it gets real boring after a while and you know, you want
to quit playing.

Actually, this game is quite good. You start off by picking
a Deck (Joey, Kaiba, or Yugi), and the restriction list is "updated"
every "week" or so. You can also buy packs instead of decks. The
cards in this game go from Legend of Blue-Eyes on up to Invasion
of Chaos.

The sad part of this game is, no cards with Spell Counters, meaning
NO MAGIC-WARRIOR BREAKER (Breaker the Magical Warrior). NOOOOOOOO!
Okay, let's get on with the game, shalst we?

Before that, here are the Controls.

A- Menu/Enter
B- Cancel
L- Minus card from deck
R- In front of someone, press to duel, add card to deck.
Start- ?
Select- ?



==================
oo2. Characters   [002CAS]

I see them, I'll post them.

[Grandpa Moto]

[Yugi]

[Mako Tsunami]

[Rex Raptor]

[Tristan Taylor]

[Tea Gardner]

[Mai Valentine]

[Weevil Underwood]

[Dog]

[Cat]

[Mokuba Kaiba]

[Ryou Bakura]

[Seto Kaiba]

==================
oo3. Walkthrough  [003WTR]  (Incomplete)
==================
Eek Dees. If you downloaded the "thing", then you probably can't
read. Push UP or DOWN to see what they have. I really recommened
the Seto Kaiba deck or just buying a bunch of packs, maybe Dragon
and you pulling Chaos Emperial(Emperor) Dragon. A very good card
which you have to wait for it to come out of the banned list. When
you get the chance, use it.

Now, once you select all your items, go to the thing on the very
right of the top (next to the Mircoscope) and click it. Grandpa
Moto will come up and will ask you something. Click LEFT and then
A. You have just bought an item.

Once that has been accomplished, you will go outside. Click A and
then look for the symbol with a Globe and a Wrench. Go to the
very bottom part and click RIGHT on it to make it English (If not
already.) Time to build up your deck.

Make sure while building your deck, you look at the cards and to
see what color their names are. If it is RED, that means it is
BANNED (0 per deck). BLUE means RESTRICTED (1 per deck) and GREEN
means SEMI-RESTRICTED (2 per deck). I personally like the Seto
Kaiba starter deck for the Waboku and Ring of Destruction which
are really big staples in this game.

Here are some cards that really will help you out throughout your
GamePlay:

Monsters:
Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning
Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End
Jinzo
Tribe-Infecting Virus
D.D. Warrior Lady
Magical Scientist
Reflect Bounder

Magics:
Pot of Greed
Dark Hole
Graceful Charity
Raigeki
Harpie's Feather Duster
Mystical Space Typhoon
Nobleman of Crossout
Smashing Ground
Fissure
Book of Moon
Swords of Revealing Light
Heavy Storm

Traps:
Imperial Order
Ring of Destructon
Royal Decree
Waboku
Call of the Haunted


Those are mainly what the people use. They will really boost up
your deck and make the gameplay much better and easier. Make your
deck and walk around to obtain some Duelist Points (DP). It is
better to fight the easier people and you still get the same amount
of DP as most of the others. Keep doing that until you get some
packs, go home, save up, rest until Friday, and then sign up for
your first tornament when you are ready.

Once signed up, you can go over and duel for some DP and get some
packs. Make sure your deck is good because you are up for quite
a ride in this duel.



(Note: You may not end up dueling these guys in this exact order.)
==================
TOURNAMENT ONE:
==================
SEMI FINALS:

This duel is a fair duel. If you have gotten the packs and the
good cards, then you should have no problems. But if you didn't,
this guy has a Beatdown deck will just.. crush you.

Once you complete the duel, collect your 300 DP, get your pakcs
and then head out for tomarrow 'cause it is the Finals.

==================
TOURNAMENT ONE:
==================
FINALS:

The final duel for this round. Man, this guy sure looks familiar.
Oh wait, it's MAKO!

He has a Legendary Ocean type deck. He should be a breeze if he
doesn't get out his good attack monsters. Just stall for a bit
until you can get the good stuff out and then he should be real
easy.



==================
Now, you should have obtained 700DP for defeating Mako. If you
head over to Grandpa's shop, he should have some new things. I
suggest you save it 'till after your next tournament. Go around
and duel until you got 20,000DP or more. Go, home, rest up for
a bit, fix your deck 'till it's better, go sign up at the Coliseum,
rest until Saturday, tourney fight.

==================
TOURNAMANET TWO:
==================
SEMI FINALS:

This duel should be a breeze! Just get out some decent ATK monsters
and you should win this with no problems. It took me 3 minutes to
beat this guy.

After the duel, collect your DP and go out to duel some more.

I dueled until I had 40,000DP and I went over to Grandpa's shop,
bought some things, (about 10,000DPs worth) and made my deck
a C.E.D deck and then headed home and rested up for the finals.

==================
TOURNAMANET TWO:
==================
FINALS:

You might want to save before coming here. This duel could mess you
up a few times. Ryou Bakura will sometimes pull out the good stuff
but should be fairly easy if you play your cards right.

Enter all your duels, make sure you have a strategy, and just,
demolish him.

Collect your 700DP. AND if you were listening to me about saving
20,000DP, go over to Grandpa's Shop and buy the EXODIA SELECTION
starter deck. It is pretty neat.

It has the Exodia set. Now, go out duel for some DP until yet again,
30,000 or so DP is obtained. Head back home, rest up 'till Friday,
sign up for the tournament and then go to the Card Shop and buy up
whatever you desire. This tournamanet will be twice as hard as both
of them put together. Some people complain about the deck not being
there. It happens in some games. After the Semi Finals, go and duel
Tea. Get some DP from her and go buy the deck. That usually seems
to work.


==================
TOURNAMENT THREE:
==================
SEMI FINALS:

This duel is just about as hard as or harder than the one with MAKO.
If you have really good Magic and Monsters, you should get through
this one in about 8 minutes.

After this duel, make sure your game is saved, head out for your
house and then rest up for the big day.


==================
TOURNAMENT THREE
==================
FINALS:

Jesus.. this deck is really annoying. Tea uses a deck that
gets her back a big amount of her Life Points. Be sure to
have really good ATK and good effect monsters. If you have
the trap card "Bad Reaction to Simochi,"
(not to sure if in this game)
then you could win this duel in maybe 5 minutes.

Pull out all the Gemini's, Kycoo's, Reflect Bounder's, and
D.D. Warrior Lady's on her 'cause those are probably going
to help you the most next to Simochi.

After this duel, you get to collect your 700DP.

Now, save up 'cause you have to prepare to make your deck
much better.


==================

Yea' that tournamanet was a challenge. Let us prepare the decks
for the tournament.


==================
TOURNAMENT FOUR:
==================
SEMI FINALS:

Hah, this dude looks likes the Pokemon people.

Ehh, my first draw to start off with this guy wasn't that bad..

Mystical Space Typhoon
Book of Moon
Call of the Haunted
D.D. Warrior Lady
D.D. Warrior Lady


This guy has a little mixed type of deck. It has stuff like
Celtic Guardian and Man-Eating Treasure Chest. An 8 turn kill
for me. Next draw, pulled out Pot of Greed, got Dark Hole and
Witch of the Black Forest, set Witch, he attacked, got Jinzo. Next
turn, drew a Black Luster, set D.D., he attacked, next turn, remove,
Black Luster, set call and moon. attack, attack. He set, I summon
D.D. Warrior Lady, Black Luster ATK, D.D. ATK. Ring Black Luster,
game. Man, gotta love it. ^_^

"You got 300DP".

Head home and rest up and save for tomarrow's big Tournamanet.


==================
TOURNAMENT FOUR:
==================
FINALS:

"Ha ha ha ha...
 You have to face me!
 Your luck has run out!"

Man, what a fruit cake. Okay, anyway, Weevil is a horrible duelist
and doesn't deserve to be in this game. This is a breeze, just keep
getting rid of his monsters so he can't summon somthing good. I don't
know, I ripped through him like nothing.

DUELING STRATEGY:
Some people have requested that I put a dueling strategy for the
Finalist so I have decided to do so. This duel shouldn't be so hard.
Just make sure you have a backup plan or somethin' to protect you.
Make sure you have some Book of Moons and Mystical Space Typhoon
just in case he pulls out somethin' good. Be sure to have a good deck
strategy or a good beatdownish type deck. I am pretty sure he will
use DNA Surgery with Insect Barrier so try to protect yourself from
that. A couple of good draws and this duel is over. Just pray that
he doesn't have that Surgery, Barrier lock on your or it's over,
unless you have some Mysticals. He is pretty psycho and will use
Jirai Gumo and will most of the time, miss. I easily defeated him
within 7 turns because he went kamikazi with Jirai Gumo each and
every time we faced each other.

"Ahhhhh!
 How could i lose to a maggot? Sniff...

Ahh.. another 700DP.

AFTERWARDS:
After finishing your match with this little fruit cake, head over
towards your house and rest up for tomarrow. Fix up your deck to
match the new restrictions and then head to Kaiba Corp. to see if
they will accept you for their tournament. Man! When are they
gonna let us join their tournaments? Well, you got 3 more to enter
so don't worry. Let's continue up to our next tournament so we can
get into KC Tower. Save up, enter tournament, duel for DP, buy up
for some cards, and then rest up until Saturday. Let's see what
I gots.


==================
TOURNAMENT FIVE:
==================
SEMI FINALS:

PREPARATION:
Make sure you got some good cards is stock because you want to beat
this guy fast to get into the finals.

DUELING STRATEGY:
There isn't a real strategy to this duel. Just be sure to get good
monsters and then that is basically it. Once you get something with
1700 ATK or more on the field, it's game.

AFTERWARDS:
Collect you 300DP and then just duel or head out home. Save, and rest
'cause tomarrow is the big day for Tournament 5's FINALS.

==================
TOURNAMENT FIVE:
==================
FINALS:

PREPARATION:
If you decided to get new cards, fix up your deck to make it good.
Just prepare for a good duel.

DUELING STRATEGY:
Man.. Joey.. this duel is simple.. If you have dueled him before this
tournament, then you should know what he has. He plays really lame
stuff and claims he can beat you the 11th turn of the duel. Yea',
like that is gonna happen. Just pull Mad Doggie, Reflect Bounder,
or Archfiend Soldier out on him with some good Traps and Quickplay
magics and you got this one.. No problem!


AFTERWARDS:
Repeat what I always say..Save, Duel, Get DP, Save, sign up for
tournament, buy cards, fix decks, go until Saturday, save, duel.


==================
TOURNAMENT SIX:
==================
SEMI FINALS:


PREPARATION:
If you decided to get new cards, fix up your deck to make it good.
Just prepare for a good duel. Wow, I am just repeating myself.

DUELING STRATEGY:
THIS GUY IS THE SAME GUY AS THE SEMI FINALS BEFORE! Use the same
strategy.

AFTERWARDS:
Repeat what I always say..save, duel, get dp, save, sign up for
tournament, buy cards, fix decks, go until Saturday, save, duel.
NEXT WEEK IS
THE LAST WEEK! And then we get to enter Kaiba Corp.



==================
TOURNAMENT SIX:
==================
FINALS:

PREPARATION:
Fix your deck up good. Prepare for a good fight.

DUELING STRATEGY:
VIEW JOEY'S STRATEGY. You are up against Tristan. As easy as the guy
in the Semi Finals. ^_^

AFTERWARDS:
Keep the same deck, go home, save, rest in bed until Friday.
Register for tournament, fix up your deck for the bans, ENTER
TOURNAMENT. FINAL ONE.


==================
TOURNAMENT SEVEN:
==================
SEMI FINALS:

Obivously I'm in a hurry. Take your time here. Let him die a
SLOW, painful death. ^_^

You dueled this guy earlier around the 2nd or 3rd tournament. This
is real easy. There is no problems here. My Bans were lucky this
week. I got Pot, scientist and 3 catapults. LAUNCHING! <_<


==================
TOUNAMENT SEVEN:
==================
FINALS:

God, I just want to get this tournament over with! I want Kaiba CORP,
NOW! XD. Alright well your up against Mai. She is a bit tricky 'cause
unlike the other people, Mai actually has a sort of strategy which is
to get out Harpie Lady's Sisters. These duels should go by but you
probably won't get past Mai so easily unless you are smart and have
a deck type.



NOTE: This is for those who skipped an entire week before entering
the tournament. If you didn't, then, oh well. The duelist are the
same. Just go look around the guide for them.

==================
YES! FINALLY! KAIBA CORP. TOWERS! Get your tiny 700DP,
save up, now, head towards KC towers.

==================
KAIBA CORP. TOWERS
==================
Currently acception applicatants for the KC Cup.
Sponsored by Kaiba Corp, the
KC Cup assembles
the top duelist in the world! You've qualified
for this tournament. Will you enter?
Yes   <---
No
==================

Welcome to the big leagues people.

==================

Forbidden cards and your oppenets will
be displayed in the tournament
description under status. Be sure to
check it out.

Make sure you - and your Deck - are
ready by then!
==================

Man, doesn't it feel good to be in the KC Cup after all of that hard
work. 7 weeks of the little n00b tournaments have paid off with the
1337 people.
==================

Your first duel is against that looser, Rex Raptor. If you didn't go
already, Grandpa's shop has a new pack called "Super Monsters
Collection". It really isn't that.. super.

Go find someone to duel (perferably Rex Raptor) and check out his
deck. You might want to strengthen up yours (if not already) then
head home, save up, and keep resting until the big day.


==================
KC Cup: 1
==================
REX RAPTOR

Preparation
-----------
Ahh.. a beautiful Saturday morning. o_O. Ooh noes! Rex Raptor!
Make sure your deck is filled with a bunch of high ATK monsters
because Rex has a lot of stuff that can boost up his monsters. But I
really think that Rex is a looser who can't duel for crap 'cause I
have a good deck, CHAOS THEMED. Ahem, well, get your theme ready.

Dueling Strategy
-----------
The point of this dueling is to eliminate all of his support cards
and his monsters with higher attack monsters such as Archfiend
Soldier, Giant Orc, and Goblin Attack Force. As long as you have
good ATK monster cards that don't require a cost, you are set. There
will be a few hard times in the duel, but, they are easy to overcome.
Just let loose on your theme (if possible) and make sure you play
smart.

Afterwards
-----------
Noooo! You gotta face that fruit cake Weevil next week. Man, why is
the Tournament guy the same all the time? Grr.. Well, save up!


==================
KC Cup: 2
==================
Weevil Underwood

PREPARATION:
I thought this was "expert duelist"! Oh well, his deck has leaned
over towards more Insect things. The more you duel 'em, the harder
they'll get. This dude is still a breeze and has a crappy, no themed
wannabee Insect-Type deck. He still has the looser cards like Dark
Fire Soldier #1 and #2. The Dueling Strategy is the same.

DUELING STRATEGY:
Some people have requested that I put a dueling strategy for the
Finalist so I have decided to do so. This duel shouldn't be so hard.
Just make sure you have a backup plan or somethin' to protect you.
Make sure you have some Book of Moons and Mystical Space Typhoon
just in case he pulls out somethin' good. Be sure to have a good deck
strategy or a good beatdownish type deck. I am pretty sure he will
use DNA Surgery with Insect Barrier so try to protect yourself from
that. A couple of good draws and this duel is over. Just pray that
he doesn't have that Surgery, Barrier lock on your or it's over,
unless you have some Mysticals. He is pretty psycho and will use
Jirai Gumo and will most of the time, miss. I easily defeated him
within 7 turns because he went kamikazi with Jirai Gumo each and
every time we faced each other.


Afterwards:
Ahh.. another 2000DP*. Better than before. Man, it feels good to
have such a good amount of DP. Now, just save up your money and
skip over to next weekend 'cause you gotta face Mako Tsunami.



==================
KC Cup: 3
==================

PREPARATION:
Just have the same deck, but make sure you have the restrictions
all set up and everything.

DUELING STRATEGY:
Mako is just as easy as before. If you kept dueling him over and
over, his deck would have flown more into his theme. If you didn't
duel him, this is way easy. A few turns with good draws and the
game goes to you. Make sure you have some Mysticals if you played
him a lot. You need to find a way to get rid of his Legendary Oceans.
If you play Book of Moon in your deck, it will help you out a lot
so you can get rid of his Gagagigo and Amphibious Burgoth MK-3. They
both are good attackers, but they have weak defense so, easy to kill.
This is a no problem duel.

AFTERWARDS:
Alright, more DP. Man.. how I am dying to defeat Kaiba. Skip to
Tuesday or something, buy some packs, change your deck, and then
go duel. Here is a chance to make your deck good. I personally
don't use that looser password machine, but, whatever. If you
got extra time on your hands, then, go get some cards. Okay,
anyway, I just dueled for about couple thousand DP and then
signed up for the tournament. Then, I just skipped over to
Sunday so I can duel in the tournament.




==================
KC Cup: 4
==================

PREPARATION:
Just make sure that your deck is following the restrictions and
you have some good staples in there to keep you living.

DUELING STRATEGY:
Right here, I got to duel Tea. Man how I hate dueling her! Oh
well, it's all gravy. I don't know what happened, but it seems
to me that she didn't have any good draws since I killed her
in 7 turns with good ol' Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the
Beginning. While dueling, you just don't want Tea to gain too
much. Only let her do that when you aren't dueling in a
tournament. This duel shouldn't be too hard. Just make sure
you got 3 Mystical Space Typhoons and cards to counter Life
Point gaining and you basically won. Or, you can use any other
techniques you have developed to beat her. >_>:"

AFTERWARDS:
DP! God, gotta love the DP. Save up and the round before the
'Semi Finals' is about to begin.

==================
KC Cup: 5 - The Round To Destiny
==================

PREPARATION/STRATEGY:
I believe I have a Joey strategy up there somewhere. Please,
view it to see what I have placed. If I am correct, it should
be the fifth Weekend Tournament.
