1. Create a board in which you can turn on and off extreme magnetization on either side. When playing an opponent, set their side to maximum magnetization so that they will A) think you are very buff in comparison to them and B) Spend more time trying to jerk pieces off the board. This will also play with their mind.
2. (This only works if you know who you are competing against before the tournament) Research your opponent on a social media platform. Try to find one of their family members social media through their following. Print out a photo of one of their parents or siblings and paste it onto a t-shirt. Wear a jacket over your t-shirt to the tournament and mid way through the game take off your jacket and continue playing as if nothing happened. Your opponent will not be able to question you about your shirt because you can't talk in a game and this will greatly throw off your opponent.
3. First go to your local animal store and buy 5 fully grown ducks (Extra points if they're all identical). Before the tournament, bribe one of your opponent's family members to plant a duck in his bedroom. From there, plant a duck in each place he frequently visits each day (For example: A coffee shop, his living room, bathroom, etc.). Be sure to place a duck in his car as well. Here is where the real phycological warfare comes into play. Conceal a duck under your jacket. When you are playing the game release the duck, place it on the table, and give a knowing wink to your opponent. Continue playing as if nothing happened and enjoy a phycological advantage while your opponent freaks out about how you managed to put ducks in his house.
4. Use each of these tactics (and more if you can think of any) against the same person. Finally, in the next game you play against them don't do any manipulation tactics at all and the whole time they will be scared about what you will do.
Good luck using these! Let me know if you want me to post more of my brilliant ideas!
Bro's being dirty here.
