Top 32 Pairings
Here are the pairings for the Top 32.
As we move into the final round of Swiss play, here are the top twenty Duelists.
David Nguyen from Toronto and Karol M. from New Jersey are both 8-2 in the tournament and will need a victory in this round in order to maintain the hope of making it into the Top 32. But now they’re Dueling against one another, and only once of them can advance. Karol is using a Fire Fist Deck that uses Sabersaurus, while Nguyen is playing an Elemental HERO Deck featuring A Hero Lives in the Main Deck as well as Bahamut Shark and Mermail Abysstrite in the Extra Deck. It’s time to Duel!
Here are your final standings after Round 11 of Swiss, cutting to the Top 32 players.
It’s the final round of Swiss play! The results of this round will determine the standings for the Top 32. We’ve got a New York Duelist, George Kyan, versus a Florida Duelist, Willian Fernandes. Kyan is using Infernity today, a popular pick now that Lavalval Chain is here. Fernandes is packing Fire Fists, using three copies of Brotherhood of the Fire Fist – Dragon, a ton of Fire Formation Continuous Traps, and Magic Planter to make use of them after they’ve done their job.
George Weber and Raymond Bauzon are both local New Jersey Duelists with 8-1 records. Weber is using an Evilswarm Deck that was recently made possible by Hidden Arsenal 7: Knight of Stars. Unlike the many of the Evilswarm Decks we featured earlier in the weekend, Weber has chosen to forego using Dinosaurs in his Decks, and is focused on an all-out Evilswarm strategy. His opponent, Raymond Bauzon, is using a Fire Fist Deck that includes Sabersaurus for access to Evolzar Laggia and Evolzar Dolkka. Fire Fists are generally tough for Evilswarms to defeat, given how easily Brotherhood of the Fire Fist - Bear destroys Evilswarm Ophion; but Weber is looking to score an upset in this Match and secure a 9-1 record. It’s time to Duel!
QQ stands for Quick Questions! There are lots of cool Number Monsters in Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal. I surveyed this weekend’s Duelists to see which one is their favorite. Check out their answers!
Jarel Winston is no stranger to Day 2 competition. Among other many other things, he even took 5th at the previous YCS held in New Jersey – YCS Edison. He’s up against Justin Ashe, who made the Top 8 at YCS Providence. These two have a long history together – Winston actually taught Ashe how to play! This matchup will see Winston’s Gadgets paired up with Ashe’s Fire Fists. It’s time to Duel!
Happy Mother’s Day from your friends here at the YCS. Welome to the start of Day 2 of YCS Meadowlands, NJ.
