Ramin Ghodoumipour is running a teched out Gadget Deck that uses 3 copies each of Koa’ki Meiru Guardian and Koa’ki Meiru Sandman to negate the effects of his opponent’s Effect Monsters and Trap Cards. His Deck is filled with other surprises too, including 2 Main Decked copies of Legendary Jujitsu Master and a copy of Gaia Plate the Earth Giant, which may make this a tough Match for his opponent, Sean Coovert, running a traditional X-Saber Deck. Both of these Duelists are currently 4-1, so a win here will put one of these players into great position for a Day 2 finish.

Here at the Yu-Gi-Oh! Championship Series, there’s more than one way to win a set of the Darklord prize cards!  While the Top 3 Duelists in the main event YCS tournament each take home a set of Darklords, two more sets are reserved for Public Event competitors.  The Top 4 Public Event point-earners (who played and won the most) and four randomly-selected Public Event competitors each get a chance to Duel in a Top 4 Playoff, where the final victor walks away with a set of the Darklords.  This was one of the Top 4 Matches for the weekend’s top point earners.
