We’re hot on the heels of YCS Houston, where we saw Trevor Parker win the Advanced event with his Dark Magician Deck packing Light and Darkness Ritual. A lot has changed in just a few short weeks, with a new Forbidden & Limited List that has shaken up the top strategies. YCS Orlando is in a unique position, between the F&L List changes and next week’s Magnificent Maestros. It’ll take a talented Duelist to find the perfect way to approach the new Advanced Format in this window.

But all that will have to wait until tomorrow – today is for Genesys! While we didn’t see a big change in Genesys like we did in Advanced, there’s still plenty to be excited about. We just had the big 1st anniversary points update in Genesys shortly before YCS Houston, and Duelists were still getting a feel for the updates. Now that a month has passed, we can see more refined Genesys strategies with these new points. YCS Houston saw Enzo Fiallos winning it all with Blitzclique, along with Angelechy, Magistus Fairy Tail, Destiny HERO, and Dark Time Wizard Decks among the top strategies. We’ll see what performs this time before Magnificent Maestros shakes things up!
Genesys Round 1 is about to begin! Check back for all the updates from today’s action, and follow along on our live stream on YouTube or Twitch!
