My first win...my very first win in MFB...and my opponent got me good, too. All three of my matches were mondo close, each 2-2 with the 5th shoot the deciding round. Of course, my last two matches were 2-3 (me being the 2...), but I got my very first win and mondo close calls today just by upgrading my Lightning LDrago 100RF (I've limited supplies lol) to a Lightning LDrago BD145RF. I learned a lot from this; if I plan on being a bit more competitive, I need to learn a lot more. *going to experiment with more attackers*

Unfortunately, I couldn't get a Beat Lynx or a second Phantom Orion, but I used MF-H Basalt Horogium R145RF against Kaji (That was a fun battle. Plus, Horogium completely forced L-Drago to the Tornado Ridge and drained its spin completely. ). I used Phantom Orion for the next 2 rounds, and lost to a low track Basalt WD combo (KO'ed me twice at the last second, I couldn't believe it.)
That was fun. It was an honor to battle against a live and dedicated fan of my comics in the flesh than just talking to him online (btw, 38 and 39 should be up on DD). You really pushed me towards the edge. I don't know how I caught up with those last two points, but I think I was doing the same thing those two times (before, I was banking). The fifth shoot, I went for the tornado-ridge and messed myself up. I feel that if I had repeated my last two times, I would have won that match, but you and
Spin-Sonic (I kept confusing him for Killer Spinner, so I feel bad XD) were awesome opponents. I need to perfect my technique, because I keep forgetting what to do!
Also, need to invest in fingerless gloves...

I take pride on using Attackers. I'm not a good thinker, and I'm very blunt and direct, which reflects on anything I customize (TCG, Beyblades, etc.), so I like to think of those as representations of myself. I suck at things like techniques and strategies. XD

Shoutout to my first opponent,
ultimateswiftie as well. I acknowledge you as one of the opponents that taught me today.
Also, a(n obnoxiously)
Neon Green Hasbro Launcher was found today before the tournament started. I called for anyone who had lost a
Neon Green Hasbro Launcher, and I got no reply (and I was pretty damn loud, too). If anyone has lost a
Neon Green Hasbro Launcher, talk to Deikailo. I placed it in her bag for lost and found because the tourney was going on. Again, talk to Deikailo.
Reminder for next week's tournament to KEEP YOUR STUFF ON YOUR AT ALL TIMES.
