Alright first and foremost, good duel. I liked your deck structure and while Burn decks are usually given a hard time on KCVDS, you will receive no crap from me. I see it as a completely viable strategy.
So your deck. It is pretty well put together, lots of deck to field summons to keep up your defenses, I liked your variety in cards; it kept me on my toes. I didn't see any real problems in your deck, mainly due to the way you used it.
I got the feeling that you know how your deck works, the ins and outs of it and how to use it effectively. that is a good trait to have. However I did see a bit of a problem when it came to you noticing and playing into you opponent's deck. You seem to be focusing in on your deck and your strategy. I would say take a bit more note of your opponent's playstyle.
There were numerous times where you didn't fully understand one of my monster effects. It is important to take that extra second or 10 to re-read all the effects of a monster. It will help you.
We went over this a bit in KCVDS chat , but Side Decking is not just adding cards to your deck. They have to be switched out. On the flip side I was impressed to see a side deck being used, not many people use them and usually it ends up hurting them. Bravo.
Overall I liked your play style and your knowledge of your deck. I would say pay a bit more attention to monster effects and your opponent's play style to further your own. With that said I will be recommending you to be placed in Slifer Red. I feel that your skills are about Ra Yellow But there were a few too many small mistakes for me to comfortably recommend you for that dorm. Take not of what I wrote here and apply for a retest when you can and you will surely be in Ra Yellow.
Look on the bright side; More DC for you.
Rank: Slifer Red
