Russell LaParre made it to the Top 32 with his Fairy Deck based around Herald of Perfection. His opponent, Danny Bassous, is playing Gladiator Beasts. This is a tough matchup for LaParre. A single Gladiator Beast War Chariot can completely shut him down, and the Thunder King Rai-Oh in Bassous’s Main Deck makes things even more difficult for LaParre. LaParre calls this his worst matchup – will he be able to overcome it? Read more…
Froggy Monarchs have done well both here, and at the SHONEN JUMP Championship in New Jersey, but Jason Hoang is playing the first Froggy Quickdraw Deck we’ve seen. He’s playing Ronintoaden from The Shining Darkness in his Main Deck, rounding out a creative strategy. Hoang finished the Swiss Rounds with an 8-2 record.
His opponent is former SHONEN JUMP Champion Mario Matheu. Matheu is 1 of the many X-Saber Duelists here in the Top 32, and he went 9-1 in the Swiss Rounds. He’s playing Compulsory Evacuation Device, creating some awesome combos that we’ll hopefully get to see in this Match. Read more…
George Velasquez is one of the Quickdraw Duelists at the top tables in this tournament. With Main Decked copies of D.D. Crow and plenty of Books of Moon, Velasquez has built his Deck to beat Infernities. So far, it seems to be working!
And that might be rough news for Joseph Parchman! Parchman is 8-1 here today with Infernities, and might have one of the better builds in the tournament. Raigeki Break seemed like a top choice for many Infernity Duelists headed into this event, but few actually seemed to run it when the time came. Parchman chose to include it in his Deck, destroying opposing cards that might stop his combo while thinning his hand. Will it be enough here? We were about to find out. Read more…
Going into Round 10, Devin Djuricin is undefeated with a 9-0 record. Andrew Fredella, however, is 8-1 and needs to win here to be guaranteed a spot in the Top 32. Djuricin is running a Frog Monarch Deck, while his opponent, Andrew Fredella, is running X-Sabers. Read more…

We have 2 more Rounds of Swiss competition this morning before we cut to the Top 32, and we’re starting our morning off with a Match that pits Infernities against Synchro Cat! While Mark Alan Johnson is piloting the OTK Deck of old, Robert Ackerman is running the most feared and unpredictable Deck of the weekend: Infernities. Ackerman has the best record of the North Eastern group of SHONEN JUMP Championship veterans piloting the Deck we Profiled yesterday. Since both competitors here had 7-1 records, the winner of this match would have a strong shot to make Top 32. Read more…
