At the end of every event, we have two separate playoffs based on Public Events. One Set has players selected based on the number of points they accumulated in Public Events throughout the weekend. The other chooses its players randomly. The winners of each receive a Super Rare Blood Mefist card! This match is the finals for the random playoffs, so these Duelists were chosen completely at random!
Andrew Henderson is a Minnesota native, who has previously won a Crush Card Virus in public event playoffs. He’s back to try once more with Dino-Rabbit! Brian Small is joining him in the finals with his HERO deck. This is Brian’s first YCS event!

Caleb Albert traveled here from Michigan this weekend, using Inzektors. Jason Jadofsky is from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. We saw him in our Round 3 Round-Up, where his HERO deck defeated Dino-Rabbits. He is now the last HERO player in contention.
Jadofsky wanted to make sure to point out that he wasn’t using a playmat. “It’s bad juju! I went the whole tournament playing on the tablecloth!”

Welcome to the final round of Swiss-paired play! After this point we’ll be cutting to the top 32 players. Each of these Duelists has two losses so far, so a win is needed in order to have a chance at the finals.
Daniel Ritchie is from nearby Elgin, Illinois. He is here with his Frog Monarch deck, packing Sea Lancer! Last round, he finished his Duel with a massive Sea Lancer, Light and Darkness Dragon, and Gachi Gachi Gantetsu attacking directly while he had only 100 Life Points. That’s a comeback Yugi himself would be envious of!
William Erker is from St. Louis, Missouri. He chose to play Inzektors today and is part of a big swarm of bug Duelists that have descended on Chicago this weekend! Fish normally feed on insects, but Erker’s certainly going to try and turn that around in this match.

Both of these players have two losses, so this Match will decide their fate in this tournament!
