Kevin Moyers from Virginia is Dueling against Vincent Bellafiore from Maryland in our Round 3 Feature Match! Moyers is using an all-new Kozmo Deck, featuring the new Kozmo monsters available in Clash of Rebellions. Bellafiore, on the other hand, is using a tried-and-true Burning Abyss Deck. Since Burning Abyss Decks typically contain lots of card effects that target monsters, including the effects of Fire Lake of the Burning Abyss and Farfa, Malebranche of the Burning Abyss, they generally have a tough time taking down Kozmo Forerunner, which can’t be targeted by an opponent’s card effects. Will Moyers be able to use his Forerunners to defeat Bellafiore and his infernal monsters? We’re about to find out. It’s time Duel!
