WCQ Report - Cockfosters London

So today I went up to London to take part in the Cockfosters WCQ. It was an enjoyable day: good people to be around, good event and good results.

So first thing; my score. I went 6-1 by the end of the day, only losing my last round of the day.

There wasn't any top cut, so at the end of 7 rounds is swiss I was placed 2nd!
Not bad at all in my eyes. Winning my a Fire Fist WCQ mat, a WCQ Deckbox plus three additional boosters. So not bad at all.

So what deck did I play?

Well none other than Prophecy! With Wind-ups, Macro Rabbit and even the new Fire Fists running about I still believed in this deck. My faith was in a good place.

Sadly I can't remember much of what happened in the games, but I do remember the match ups.

Round 1
Watts
OO

Round 2
Machina
OXO

Round 3
Chain Burn
OO

Round 4

OXO

Round 5

Round 6

Round 7

So as you can I play nearly everything in the meta and the top rogue decks. Very good day of testing for me as well, as I made several changes to my build last night.

Prophecy Divine Judgment of the Spellbooks Combo

So... This card may be a bit broken...

If you open any of these two;
Judgment, Secrets or Magician, then:

Play Judgement or Normal Summon Magician > Search Judgment, Play Judgment.

Play Secrets > Search Magician (If not normal summoned; then summon him search Master) OR Search Master (If you have normal summon)

Play Master, Copy Secrets > Search Tower.
Play Tower.

Set hand down to 1 card.

Field:
Magician
Tower
3 S/T backrow

Hand Size: 1

End Phase:
Search three spellbooks, Special Summon Justice. Justice effect; search one Spellbook and High Priestess.

Hand size: 6 (4 searched spellbooks in hand and one high priestess, plus random card in hand)

Now if they heavy storm you for a +3; Tower will then search for a lvl 5 or lower; and plus one lvl for each set S/T you set that was a Spellbook. So potentially you can SS a High Priestess off of the storm.

And if you searched Life last turn then she will be back next turn with another coming from your hand.
