Round 1 Feature Match: Michael Campos vs. Kerry Nugent
Michael Campos from Arlington, Texas is Dueling against Kerry Nugent from Corydon, Indiana in our Round 1 Feature Match! Campos is using a Krawler Deck made possible by the release of Circuit Break. All of the Krawler monsters that can be included in a Main Deck are Flip Effect Monsters with an extra effect that Special Summons 2 more Krawlers from the Deck to the field if they leave the field while face-up as a result of the opponent’s card effect. Campos’s opponent is a YCS first-timer, and he’s using Infernoids this weekend! Infernoids are expected to be a powerful Deck for this tournament, and Kerry Nugent is betting his hopes and dreams of becoming a YCS winner on his Infernoid Deck. It’s time to Duel!
