We featured Jose Carlo Carrillo Toscano on Friday during the WQP Playoff, and after a disappointing finish there, he chose to change Decks and managed to go undefeated in Swiss with a perfect 10-0 record! His opponent is Aldo Augosto Montalvan Izquierdo, and they will be facing off in a Danger! Thunder Dragon mirror match in the Top 64.
We have now entered the Top Cut, and a whopping 10 different types of Decks have advanced to the Single Elimination Rounds!
Check out which Decks the top 64 Duelists used at the 200th YCS in Columbus, Ohio!
Are you curious about which Duelists made it to the Top 64 of the 2018 Central America WCQ and which Decks those Duelists piloted? Read more…
Heading into the weekend there were four big defined strategies that were expected to be heavily represented in the field. Burning Abyss had won the last two North American YCS, so it had a huge target on its head. Monarchs in various forms have been popular since their release, with Extra Deck Monarch pulling ahead by a substantial margin recently over its Domain counterpart. Two different variants of Pendulum had shined a bit more than the rest, one utilizing powerful Performapal combos while the other used the consistent Odd-Eyes Magician engine to Pendulum Summon huge threats like Majespecter Unicorn – Kirin and Mist Valley Apex Avian. Finally, Card of Demise has given life to a ton of different trap strategies as Duelists tried to find the best shell for it. What ended up being the most successful?
The Top 64 field here at the South American WCQ is pretty different from what we saw last week at the Central American WCQ. Sure enough, Burning Abyss Phantom Knights stole the show, with nearly as much Top Cut representation as Kozmos and Monarchs combined. Check it out!
