Here in the final round we have Daniel Cunningham piloting Artifact Satellarknights against Frazier Smith’s 60 Card Control. Both decks would be considered fringe strategies compared to the array of Qliphorts and Pure Burning Abyss builds floating around today, so it should be an interesting matchup. Let’s get to it! Game 1 Frazier took first, and he started off with Kuribandit, and two back rows. He activated Kuribandit and sent Scarm, Phoenix Wing Wind Blast, Shaddoll Beast, Chaos Sorcerer and Sinister Shadow Games. He opted to add Shadow Games. In the end phase Scarm added Graff and he drew a card Read more

Game 1 Deon started things off by special summoning Rubic from his hand, then activated Foolish Burial to send Graff, which special summoned Scarm. He then special summoned Calcab from his hand and overlaid it with Scarm for Dante. He detached Scarm, sending Cir, MST and Compulse. Cir special summoned Graff from the graveyard and he overlaid it with Rubic for Dante. He set 2 cards to his back row and added Tour Guide in the end phase. Mitchell started his turn off by using 2 Upstart Goblins. Mitchell then followed it up with Raigeki, which triggered the 2 Dantes, Read more

Here in round 6 we have a mirror match between Qliphorts yet again. It seems that this deck is living up to the hype, so let’s get to it. Game 1 Jerome started things off the way most Qliphort decks do, using Summoner’s Art to search Scout, to then add Saqlifice. He ended his turn after summoning Carrier, setting 3 and equipping the Saqlifice. Kenneth made the exact same play with the exception of setting 4 instead of 3. Jerome followed up searching Disk via Scout. He then tributed the Carrier for Disk and Kenneth activated Madolche Nights. The Carrier Read more

Here in round 5 we have a glimpse at a match between 2 decks that will most likely define the format. We have the well known Patrick Hoban piloting Burning Abyss, going up against Matthew Nistico piloting Qliphorts, who we saw earlier today. Matt is 4-0 and Pat is 3-0-1. Game 1 Matt started things off by summoning Carrier and equipping it with Saqlifice, setting 2 to the back row and passed. Hoban started things off with Upstart Goblin, then special summoning Rubic from his hand, then special summoning Calcab. He overlaid the 2 for Dante and detached Rubic to Read more
