Matt Kolenda has had quite the year, qualifying for the 2015 Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship by placing 5th in the North American World Championship Qualifier. Even with such a big accomplishment, becoming a Yu-Gi-Oh! Championship Series Winner is what the goal is for today. He has chosen to use a Burning Abyss Deck that focuses on disrupting the opponent and continual pressure thanks to Malebranches. His opponent, Ed Elton Acepcion, may not have the same credentials, but has still proven his worth today with the same strategy. This is a Burning Abyss mirror match where choosing the correct line is very important, but of course getting a bit lucky with Dante, Traveler of the Burning Abyss does not hurt either.
Who will make it to the final stage of YCS Dallas?
Kolenda won the roll and chose to go first.

We’re in the final round of Dragon Duels for Day 1 of YCS Chicago! We’ve got Zachary Taylor here up against Jackson Sayre! Does that name seem familiar? It might be because we just saw his dad defeat Billy Brake in Round 1! The winner of this Duel will get to come back tomorrow to face Sunday’s Dragon Duel winner for the title of YCS Chicago Dragon Duel Champion!
Dragon Duels are now a Sealed event, using Battle Pack 3: Monster League rules. In Sealed Play, you open up Booster Packs and build your Deck directly from those cards. And since it’s Battle Pack 3, we’ll be playing under the Monster League rule – all monsters are treated as all Types, at all times. That makes for some very cool card interactions. Let’s see how our top Dragon Duelists fare under these conditions!

This is what it’s all about: one of Canada’s greatest competitors facing off against the American winner of the North American Championship!
