Welcome to Day 2 of TEAM YCS Las Vegas! We’re kicking things off with a Fiendsmith Ryzeal mirror Match – it’s Colorado Duelist Landon Oliver, facing California Duelist Craig Hayashi. Oliver is representing Team Leclowns, along with Jose Santiago Torres and Esala Wathuthantrige. Hayashi is here with Team BACK, alongside Kenneth Kuo and Brandon Wold. Between these two teams, we have innumerable YCS Top Cut finishes, WCQ Top Cuts, and World Championship appearances. It’s time to Duel!

We’re in the first Swiss Round of Day 2 at TEAM YCS Las Vegas! Team Chundra Fan Club and Team VACAYSHON both finished Day 1 with 6-1-1 records, and now they’re facing off in this Round 9 Feature Match! All of the players on Team Chundra Fan Club – Bobby Barone, Mario De Micco, and Rico Eichelberger – are likely fans of Tenpai Dragon Chundra, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re using Tenpai Dragon strategies this weekend. Similarly, Team VACAYSHON, comprised of Eric Garde, Jason Bai, and Salvador Flores Peralta, may be on “vacation”, but their attitude toward Dueling this weekend may be anything but relaxed. In this Feature Match, we’ll be focusing in on the Match between Bobby Barone and Eric Garde. Bobby Barone is the “Bobby” from our Round 7 Feature Match with Team Bobby’s Bench. While his benched Duelists didn’t make it to Day 2, Bobby Barone and Team Chundra Fan Club still have a solid shot at making the Top 16 cut. It’s time to Duel!

For Duelists who want to play formats of the past and didn’t make it to Day 2 of the Ultimate Time Wizard Challenge, there’s a special Public Event that they can compete in today. That event is the Time Wizard ATTACK OF THE GIANT CARD!! Tournament! The winner of this tournament will receive this beautiful GIANT card!
Reborn Tengu was once a top competitive card, and many Duelists are a fan of it. This GIANT copy with the 25th Quarter Century stamp on it will be an awesome addition to any Duelist’s collection. The second and third place Duelists in today’s Time Wizard ATTACK OF THE GIANT CARD!! Tournament will receive an Oversized (but not quite GIANT) copy.
We’re ready to begin Day 2 of TEAM YCS Las Vegas! Here are the matchups!
