With a whopping eight Wind-Up Duelists at the top ten tables, it’s a bigger showing for the clockwork wonders than most competitors anticipated.  The second most-successful Deck – at least from this limited sampling – is Dino Rabbit, with four representatives out of the twenty we looked at.  Dino Rabbit was a hot ticket heading into the weekend: a proven, consistent strategy, it has a great match-up with Mermails, making it a top prospect for this tournament. 

 

Mermails themselves tied with Agents – a deck that saw a big resurgence at Providence – and Geargias, with two representatives each.  Madolche and Dark World were each played by one rogue Duelist each.

 

The shape of the top tables this early in the tournament are often very different from the Top 32 in Day 2, but for now, this looks like a huge showing for Wind-Ups.  Will the competitive favorite continue to dominate here in Seattle?  Only time will tell.
