It was locals. I read that most of you like to read and analyze how different players play.
Round 0: I got to my locals early and I didn't have a deck to play, so I take out my binder and start trading so I could get some cards to play, I ended up building Puppets (I'll post the decklist of before the locals and the decklist after). I borrowed some cards like chiyo/sakura, sasori (puppet mode) and Sakura from Tp4. So we start the pairings (9 people played):
Round 1 vs Puppets: I saw his version before the locals started and he was running Tetragram and Kurenai.
G1: He starts and goes with the regular Kankuro into crow and I start pushing with Gaara and Temari. I build up in power really fast with gaara, temari, kank, crow, sand anbu, etc. We go back and forth until he drops Baki and he Tetragrams me, I only had Jutsu negation in my hand.
G2: I sided in 2 Kurenai, and started to rush him, it ended quickly when I sneak attack his sasori.
G3: We go into time and I draw into 2 Kurenai with my curve, GG.
Round 2 vs Puppets: Out of 9 people, 3 of those decks were puppets.
G1: He draws nothing, I push.
G2: He starts to control the field via crow and black ant. We go back and forth until he drops Gaara and reveals Sand Wall and screws me over. GG
G3: I rush until Meijin calls game, I keep on pushing for BRs until time gets called.
Round 3 vs Perma Earth
G1: I start rushing with Gaara and Temari, and start controlling the field with jutsu.
G2: I sided in 2 tofu, 2 pakkun and 1 temari. I drew pakkun and tofu and started rushing from there, one turn 4 Chikamatsus 10 puppets gives me game.
