    Hey Jae
    What deck are you playing with? :P Good luck ;)

  • Xanatos

    Well DUHH he won’t say before R1 has even started. That would basically be equivalent to YGO suicide.

    …So what deck ARE you playing Jae?? :P

  • CookieDUDE

    I reckon sabers will have it. Simply because of the amount of people that will play them.

    I’m interested to hear more about the bans.

    Thanks for updating before the official site even has a WCQ USA section.

    Hmm wonder what he’s playing ;)

    I go to you for my YGO know-how.

    Scovern got kicked out (confirmed by me). Not banned yet, but he’s not playing. GL Jae.

    Corn is playing GB, thats cool. I thought that he would play a top tier deck, X-Sabers were my guess.
    I really like that he´s playing GBs, that´s cool :)

  • ben

    were you outjayed???

  • Zen

    Got contacted by Ocelot. He’s 7-2 with frog OTK

  • darlingnobaka

    I bombed out early, 2-3 with Heralds. But a guy I play against each week made top 8 with Frog Monarch, and I had a blast at my first Nationals. Same time next year!

  • GhettoKaiba

    wow whats the deal with scovern? He goes to my locals and alot of people say he cheats and stacks is that why he was kicked out/banned? love to hear about more details on the banning situation and Great tourney report jae keep it up!
