March 16th, 2025

The 3 vs. 3 Ultimate Time Wizard Tournament has reached the final Match! This event pits teams of Duelists against each other in multiple eras of classic Dueling – April 2005, April 2010, and September 2011. From Team Robert Joseph Scarpelli, we have Rick Novak, Chris Pierczynski, and Matt Kolenda playing the 2005, 2010, and 2011 formats, respectively. They’re facing Team ANIME SUCKS’s Thomas Sensing, Cameren Kawamoto, and Robin Sharman. Since Reborn Tengu is featured on the newest Time Wizard Tournament Game Mats, and it’s such a huge part of the 2011 format, so we’ve got Kolenda and Sharman in the Feature Match seat for you today.

Round 9 Feature Match: Bobby Barone vs. Eric Garde

March 16th, 2025

We’re in the first Swiss Round of Day 2 at TEAM YCS Las Vegas! Team Chundra Fan Club and Team VACAYSHON both finished Day 1 with 6-1-1 records, and now they’re facing off in this Round 9 Feature Match! All of the players on Team Chundra Fan Club – Bobby Barone, Mario De Micco, and Rico Eichelberger – are likely fans of Tenpai Dragon Chundra, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re using Tenpai Dragon strategies this weekend. Similarly, Team VACAYSHON, comprised of Eric Garde, Jason Bai, and Salvador Flores Peralta, may be on “vacation”, but their attitude toward Dueling this weekend may be anything but relaxed. In this Feature Match, we’ll be focusing in on the Match between Bobby Barone and Eric Garde. Bobby Barone is the “Bobby” from our Round 7 Feature Match with Team Bobby’s Bench. While his benched Duelists didn’t make it to Day 2, Bobby Barone and Team Chundra Fan Club still have a solid shot at making the Top 16 cut. It’s time to Duel!
