This allowed me to keep up my own pressure while forcing him to give me damage.

This time I started with Hyakki Vogue in my hand and was able to leave the Counter Blasts open for its effects. Eventually I tried for a last resort attack by using Hyakki Vogue's LB4 twice and prayed for a critical trigger but my oppponent had the perfect guard and that was game. My lack of pressure would be my downfall as I quickly ran out of cards and had no other Hyakki Vogue to use with my LB4. The next turn I drew into Hyakki Vogue but I had used up 1 Counter Blast so I couldn't use the on-ride skill. I was rushed early and I tired to make my own offense using Oboro Cart. Once again no grade 3 in my starting hand. He succumbed before he could even get off one 'Explosion Blue'. While he applied no pressure to me I filled up my field with my legion skill and put an 8k behind my vanguard for the 31k column. He wasn't aggressive at all early and I managed to draw my grade 3 on time.

I went first but didn't get a grade 3 in my opening hand. Eventually I succumbed to his offense because I never drew into other copies of hyakki vogue (he retired the one i got from the initial on-ride skill) I drive checked one on my last turn which caused me to lose due to not having enough guard. At one point he tried to bait me into blocking Wingal Brave's effect by attacking my rear guard but I was able to call his bluff and let it act as a perfect guard. I continued trying to control his offense by taking out his attackers and blocking his vanguard which was only attacking for 15k (Wingal Brave was stuck there). I decided to take damage so that I could control his aggression by attacking Palamedes with Hyakki Vogue's limit break. However, the next turn he moved Marron back and called 2 Palamedes into the front row. On his second turn my opponent rushed me with marrons in the front row but damage triggers saved me from a lot of pain. Opponent started first and I initially though he was using Thing Saver + RPBA with the wingal brave starter but his other cards quickly gave him away. Bringing you my tournament results after using the Murakumo Legion deck I wrote about on Thursday in my Budgetfight Article.
