The Top 64 field here at the South American WCQ is pretty different from what we saw last week at the Central American WCQ. Sure enough, Burning Abyss Phantom Knights stole the show, with nearly as much Top Cut representation as Kozmos and Monarchs combined. Check it out!
While Burning Abyss Phantom Knights have captured a massive 24 seats in the Top 64, the Day 2 field is wildly varied from there. For instance, Marck Antonio Caceres Gajardo from Santiago, Chile is playing Mermails, the only Duelist in the Top 64 running the Deck. His opponent is Alejandro Vega Ascarrunz from Cochapamba, Bolivia, playing Extra Deck Monarchs. Caceres was effectively taking a lone wolf off-the-radar rogue Deck against the most decorated strategy in the format. Let’s see what happens.
After nine rounds of Swiss-Style competition yesterday, the 292 Duelists that traveled to Bogota this weekend to take their shot at the South American Championship have dwindled down to a final Top 64. The field’s wide open, and while Burning Abyss Phantom Knights leads the pack with 24 seats in the playoff rounds, tons of Kozmo, Monarch, and Pendulum variants are in the race as well, along with Qliphorts, Mermails, and Anti-Meta Decks.
