Mini Tournament Online Report

NeoGoat Pro Online • October 18, 2026 • 8 players • 3 rounds

Perales won the NeoGoat Pro mini tournament with EARTH Beatdown, finishing 3–0 in matches and 6–3 in games. Playing as breakerblue, he beat ARENA, Orangebreaker and panquecito by the same score: 2–1. Every round went to a deciding game, and Perales won all three.

His run had a little of everything: a 28-turn fight that ended with an unpleasant Marshmallon surprise, a Creature Swap play that brought out Injection Fairy Lily, and a freshly drawn Kycoo that ruined Orangebreaker’s plans for a 3000 ATK King of the Skull Servants.

Perales’s deck backed up Berserk Gorilla and Goblin Attack Force with extra attackers like Gigantes and The Rock Spirit. His smaller monsters did plenty of work, too: Mystic Swordsman LV2 dealt with set monsters, while D.D. Warrior Lady, D.D. Assailant and Exiled Force helped clear a path through the opposing field.

Round 1: Perales vs. ARENA

Result: Perales wins 2–1.

ARENA’s mix of Gravekeeper’s defenders, Don Zaloog and Chaos Sorcerer gave Perales several problems to work through. In the first game, Mystic Swordsman LV2 answered two of them: it removed Magical Merchant, then returned through Premature Burial to deal with a set Gravekeeper’s Spy. Heavy Storm later cleared three back-row cards as Perales took the opener.

Game 2 lasted 28 turns. Perales built an early lead, but Chaos Sorcerer and Don Zaloog helped ARENA fight back. With his own Life Points below 1000, Perales attacked a set monster with D.D. Warrior Lady—and found Marshmallon. Its 1000 damage ended the game and sent the match to a decider.

In Game 3, Nobleman of Crossout removed all three of ARENA’s Gravekeeper’s Spies, but Mirror Force wiped out Perales’s Gorilla and Goblin Attack Force. D.D. Assailant carried much of the pressure after that. Shield Crush and Heavy Storm cleared the way, Goblin returned through Premature Burial, and Perales recovered to take the match.

Round 2: Perales vs. Orangebreaker

Result: Perales wins 2–1.

Orangebreaker brought a Doriado / Skull Servant deck with a neat connection between its two halves: Advanced Ritual Art could send three Skull Servants to the Graveyard to summon Elemental Mistress Doriado. That enabled Fuh-Rin-Ka-Zan while preparing a 3000 ATK King of the Skull Servants.

The engine got going in Game 1. Orangebreaker used Fuh-Rin-Ka-Zan to draw two cards before Doriado fell in battle, then kept attacking with Manju and Tribe-Infecting Virus. A Heavy Storm cleared Perales’s defenses, and Orangebreaker took the first game.

Perales answered in Game 2 with repeated removal and pressure from his EARTH monsters. The Kings kept returning, but their shrinking Graveyard count made them easier to handle. Late in the game, Ring of Destruction stopped Gozuki’s attack and left Orangebreaker at 1100 LP. Perales took the game to force another decider.

A 400-Damage Attack That Cost the King 2000 ATK

Orangebreaker opened Game 3 with Manju, Doriado and all three Skull Servants in the Graveyard. The plan was to follow up with a 3000 ATK King on the next turn.

Then Perales drew Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer.

After Mystical Space Typhoon cleared the set Dust Tornado, Kycoo attacked Manju for 400 battle damage. That was enough to activate its effect and banish two Skull Servants. The King waiting in Orangebreaker’s hand was suddenly looking at 1000 ATK.

Orangebreaker summoned Tribe-Infecting Virus and discarded that King to destroy all Spellcasters—removing Kycoo, but also his own Doriado. Perales followed with Berserk Gorilla, while D.D. Warrior Lady banished Goblin Zombie before it could reach the Graveyard and search.

King eventually reached the field through Book of Life, but the missing Skull Servants still mattered. A Gorilla destroyed the 1000 ATK King; after it banished the last Skull Servant to revive itself at 0 ATK, D.D. Assailant destroyed it again. Perales went on to win the match. Orangebreaker had dealt with Kycoo, but the damage to his Graveyard had already been done.

Round 3: Perales vs. panquecito

Result: Perales wins 2–1.

The last round brought another EARTH matchup, with Giant Rat, Injection Fairy Lily and Creature Swap making the exchanges dangerous. Perales took Game 1 after working through Royal Decree and Lily. One useful sequence near the end turned Lily into two resources: he discarded her for Tribe-Infecting Virus to destroy Giant Rat, then banished her to summon The Rock Spirit.

Panquecito hit back in Game 2. Creature Swap traded his Giant Rat for Perales’s Berserk Gorilla. Gorilla attacked the exchanged Rat, whose effect brought Injection Fairy Lily onto panquecito’s field. Lily then attacked directly with her boost. The two attacks dealt 4000 battle damage, and panquecito went on to win with another Gorilla direct attack.

In the deciding game, D.D. Assailant landed three direct attacks after a Gorilla had already connected for 2000. Heavy Storm cleared Royal Decree and Shrink, while Exiled Force removed a set Lily. Panquecito dropped to 900 LP.

Panquecito paid 800 for Brain Control, took Assailant and tributed it for Mobius the Frost Monarch. Mobius targeted Bottomless Trap Hole, but Perales chained it to banish Mobius. With panquecito at just 100 LP, Perales summoned Kycoo on the following turn and secured the final game, completing his 3–0 finish.

Bonus Match: Orangebreaker vs. Victor Peluche — Dragons, Skull Servants, and a Costly Misclick

Victor Peluche won this match 2–1, taking the opening game with Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV8 and Armed Dragon LV5 leading the attack.

Orangebreaker fought back in Game 2. Fuh-Rin-Ka-Zan cleared three back-row cards, and a 4000 ATK King of the Skull Servants, alongside Doriado and Gozuki, helped push Victor down to just 600 LP. Then Orangebreaker nearly threw it away by trying to get fancy: he kept Heavy Storm in hand and attacked into Mirror Force, losing all three monsters. Fortunately for him, Card Destruction and Book of Life provided a way back, and he recovered to force a deciding game.

Game 3 brought an even more costly mistake. With Victor at just 350 LP, Orangebreaker summoned Manju and searched Doriado. According to Orangebreaker, he then accidentally activated Advanced Ritual Art, summoning the Doriado he had intended to discard for Lightning Vortex. That misclick cost him a potential winning line: clear Kycoo with Vortex, then attack directly with Manju.

Victor took full advantage. He tributed Kycoo for Horus LV6, activated Level Up! to bring out Horus LV8, and attacked Manju for 1600 damage—more than Orangebreaker’s remaining 1300 LP. Orangebreaker had survived his Mirror Force mistake in Game 2. This time, there was no recovery.

Three Deciders, Three Wins

Every opponent took a game from Perales, but he came through each decider. D.D. Assailant kept finding room to attack, Mystic Swordsman LV2 earned its place against ARENA’s defenses, and Kycoo delivered the most memorable interruption of the run. Sometimes, 400 damage hurts a lot more than the Life Point counter suggests.

NeoDraft Gold Series 4: Round 1

The first round of our Gold Series 4 NeoDraft invitational on NeoGoat Pro is complete! All four matches are here, with eleven games, three deciding duels and some unusual opening fields. One game even started with a Black Luster Soldier on each side.

The draft cards gave each duel a different starting point, while the players still had their constructed decks to work with. Sometimes that extra card became the main threat; sometimes it became Tribute Summon material. Here is how the opening round played out.

Watch the matches below. Results and game-by-game highlights are included.

Tona vs Pipe — Pipe wins 2–1

Watch Tona vs Pipe on YouTube

Game 1: Pipe survives the pressure

Draft cards: Tona — Royal Oppression, starting face-up; Pipe — Deck Devastation Virus, starting in hand.

Tona used Royal Oppression to stop Call of the Haunted and pushed with Jirai Gumo, protecting it from Torrential Tribute with Solemn Scolding. Even Sakuretsu Armor did not end the pressure: Tona brought Gumo back with Call of the Haunted during the same Battle Phase for another attack. His LP eventually dropped to just 275, though, and Pipe held on with Book of Moon before rebuilding through Pot of Greed, Dekoichi and Thunder Dragon. Breaker destroyed Sasuke Samurai #4, and Thunder Dragon landed the direct attack that gave Pipe the first game.

Game 2: Tona wins at 300 LP

Draft cards: Tona — Injection Fairy Lily; Pipe — Eradicating Aerosol.

Tona protected Breaker from Torrential Tribute with Solemn Judgment, then used its counter to destroy Eradicating Aerosol. Lily attacked for 3400, and D.D. Warrior equipped with Megamorph added another 2400. Pipe fought back with Reflect Bounder and defensive traps, while Book of Moon removed Megamorph by turning D.D. Warrior face-down. Tona found the opening he needed after Time Seal denied a draw: Ring of Destruction removed Reflect Bounder in Pipe's End Phase, leaving Tona at only 300 LP. D.D. Warrior attacked directly on the following turn to tie the match.

Game 3: Sinister Serpent clears the way

Draft cards: Tona — Sword of Dark Rites; Pipe — Injection Fairy Lily.

Tona had a neat response to Heavy Storm, chaining Pole Position and Compulsory Evacuation Device to return his own Blade Knight to hand. When Storm destroyed Pole Position, Pipe's Lily went with it. Pipe rebuilt with D.D. Warrior Lady and Blade Knight, then used Tsukuyomi and Book of Moon to turn opposing attackers face-down. The finish came down to attack order: Sinister Serpent's 300 ATK was enough to beat a face-down Jirai Gumo with 100 DEF, leaving Chaos Sorcerer free to attack directly for the match.

Victor peluche vs Negro jariozo — Victor peluche wins 2–1

Watch Victor peluche vs Negro jariozo on YouTube

Game 1: BLS on both sides

Draft cards: both players — Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning, starting in Attack Position.

Both players opened with BLS, but Victor immediately used his to banish the opposing copy. Negro fought back when Giant Rat and Masked Dragon destroyed each other in battle: their effects brought out Injection Fairy Lily and Armed Dragon LV3, and Lily took down Victor's BLS. On Victor's next turn, LV3 became LV5, which discarded Fusilier Dragon to remove Lily. Cyberdark Keel joined the field equipped with Masked Dragon, and when Negro used Shrink during the Battle Phase, Victor chained Call of the Haunted to bring BLS back. The returning Soldier helped finish the game on turn five.

Game 2: Lily takes down LV7

Draft cards: Victor peluche — Summoner Monk; Negro jariozo — Beastking of the Swamps.

Negro removed Victor's starting Summoner Monk with Exiled Force. Victor worked his way back through Masked Dragon and Twin-Headed Behemoth, eventually reaching Armed Dragon LV7, but Injection Fairy Lily beat it in battle. Another LV5 followed through Level Up!, and Solemn Scolding stopped Negro's Smashing Ground. That still was not enough to keep the dragon safe: D.D. Warrior Lady banished it after battle, opening the way for a direct attack from The Rock Spirit. Negro took the second game and forced a decider.

Game 3: Horus and Ryu Senshi

Draft cards: Victor peluche — Meltiel, Sage of the Sky; Negro jariozo — Summoner Monk.

Negro used Summoner Monk to bring out Berserk Gorilla, while Victor turned his draft card into something else entirely: Meltiel became the tribute for Horus LV6, which then became Ryu Senshi through Metamorphosis. Reasoning added Fusilier Dragon, and the two attackers cleared Gorilla and Monk. Negro answered Fusilier with Kycoo and Shrink, but Victor brought Horus back with Call of the Haunted. Horus destroyed Kycoo and evolved into LV8, joining Ryu Senshi and Cave Dragon in a strong position. Victor took the deciding game and the match.

krlos vs Bemg — krlos wins 2–0

Watch krlos vs Bemg on YouTube

Game 1: 500 LP is enough

Draft cards: krlos — The Wicked Worm Beast; Bemg — Injection Fairy Lily.

Hydrogeddon helped krlos build a field, while Bemg's Lily destroyed The Wicked Worm Beast and a Hydrogeddon at the cost of two LP payments. Bemg later resolved a Heavy Storm that cleared four of krlos's back-row cards along with his own Stumbling. By turn eleven, Golem Sentry had returned Mobius to hand, and attacks from Sentry and Morphing Jar left krlos at 500 LP. But Bemg was also within reach. On the next turn, krlos used Heavy Storm to remove Stumbling, summoned UFO Turtle and attacked the Attack Position Morphing Jar. The 700 battle damage was enough to win.

Game 2: A 23-turn grind

Draft cards: krlos — Royal Oppression, starting face-up; Bemg — Gladiator Beast Gyzarus, starting in Attack Position.

Bemg's Gyzarus destroyed Lord Poison in battle, but that brought back the Sylvan Hermitree krlos had sent to the Graveyard with Foolish Burial. Royal Oppression stopped Premature Burial and later The Rock Spirit, while Shrink let D.D. Assailant defeat Gyzarus. Bemg kept fighting with Heavy Storm and Megarock Dragon, then chained Ring of Destruction and Mystical Space Typhoon to Mobius to remove both the Monarch and Skill Drain. krlos rebuilt with Frost and Flame Dragon, connected an attack and later used its effect to destroy Legendary Jujitsu Master. He took the game on turn 23, securing the round's only 2–0 result.

Rojo vs Rodrigo — Rojo wins 2–1

Watch Rojo vs Rodrigo on YouTube

Game 1: Jinzo takes over

Draft cards: Rojo — Toon Dark Magician Girl, with Toon World supplied by the special rule; Rodrigo — Graceful Dice.

Rojo opened with Toon Dark Magician Girl and Archfiend Soldier, but Rodrigo turned that field around with Brain Control. He took Soldier, tributed it for Jinzo and destroyed the Toon in battle. Jinzo and Skilled Dark Magician kept the pressure on, and Rodrigo's draft card eventually made a difference: when Archfiend Heiress equipped with Axe of Despair attacked Skilled Dark Magician, Graceful Dice rolled a three. That put Skilled Dark Magician at 2200 ATK against Heiress's 2000, winning the battle. Rodrigo took the opening game.

Game 2: The Archfiends get going

Draft cards: Rojo — Goddess of Whim; Rodrigo — Trap Stun.

Rojo started with Foolish Burial sending Archfiend Heiress to search Archfiend General. General then became the tribute for Deck Devastation Virus, removing Spirit Reaper from Rodrigo's hand. Archfiend's Roar brought Heiress back, and its destruction in the End Phase produced another search, this time for Terrorking Archfiend. Goddess of Whim contributed early attacks before falling to Fissure. Then Terrorking equipped with Axe of Despair attacked for 3000, followed by Heiress for another 1000. Rojo took the game to make it 1–1.

Game 3: Crush Card Virus turns the game

Draft cards: Rojo — Mormolith; Rodrigo — Radiant Jeral.

Rojo tributed Heiress for Crush Card Virus, destroying four monsters in Rodrigo's hand and D.D. Warrior Lady on his field. Rodrigo found a useful play with the opposing draft card, taking Mormolith through Brain Control and tributing it to destroy Heiress. But Heiress searched Terrorking, keeping Rojo supplied with another attacker. Rojo later pushed with Terrorking and an equipped Archfiend Soldier, then used Archfiend's Roar during the Battle Phase to add an attack from Heiress. Another End Phase search kept the resources coming, and Rojo completed the 2–1 comeback.

Round 1 complete

Pipe, Victor peluche, krlos and Rojo each picked up a win in the opening round. Three matches went to a third game, and even the only 2–0 included a duel decided with the winner at 500 LP.

From a Graceful Dice roll winning a battle to Sinister Serpent clearing the way for Chaos Sorcerer, there was plenty to watch beyond the biggest monsters. Enjoy the four matches, and on to Round 2!

Omar Martinez Wins the NeoGoat Regional — Gadget Monarch and More Decklists

The NeoGoat Regional brought together 20 players for five rounds, with Omar Martinez taking first place with Gadget Monarch. Here’s a look at his winning build, along with three more decklists shared by players at the event.

Gadgets and Monarchs took the title, but they weren’t the only approach on display. Below, we also have Gustavo Chapa’s Chaos Warrior, Tonatiuh Camarillo’s Chaos Burn, and Efrain Fuentes’s take on Monarch.

Click or tap any deck image to open the full-size version.

🏆 Regional Winner: Omar Martinez — Gadget Monarch

Omar’s list puts the Gadget search chain to work alongside Thestalos and Mobius. Green, Red, and Yellow Gadget keep the next monster ready in hand, letting the deck maintain a field without running out of follow-up summons so easily. Those monsters can keep attacking or become tribute material when it’s time to bring out a Monarch.

Ultimate Offering provides additional Normal Summons, while Unexpected Dai brings out Insect Knight without using the regular Normal Summon. Backed by removal, the deck can make progress with its smaller monsters before following up with a Tribute Summon.

Omar Martinez — Gadget Monarch
1st Place · NeoGoat Regional

More Decklists from the Regional

Alongside the champion’s build, here are three other lists from the event. Each takes a different route, from Warrior-based removal to burn damage and a more tribute-heavy Monarch lineup.

Gustavo Chapa — Chaos Warrior

Chapa brought Chaos Warrior, with Reinforcement of the Army helping him find the right Warrior for the situation. D.D. Warrior Lady and Exiled Force deal with opposing monsters, while Don Zaloog gives the opponent another reason not to leave the field open.

The LIGHT and DARK monsters also set up Chaos Sorcerer as a follow-up threat. Mobius and Banisher of the Radiance add further disruption options alongside the Warrior toolbox.

Gustavo Chapa — Chaos Warrior

Tonatiuh Camarillo — Chaos Burn

Tonatiuh took a different approach with Chaos Burn. Des Koala and Stealth Bird chip away at Life Points, while defensive cards help buy time for the damage to add up. Ojama Trio and Just Desserts give the deck another way to turn the opponent’s occupied monster zones into damage.

Chaos Sorcerer adds something beyond the burn plan: a way to remove a monster and put an attacker on the field. The deck doesn’t have to rely entirely on effect damage to finish a game.

Tonatiuh Camarillo — Chaos Burn

Efrain Fuentes — Monarch

Efrain’s build takes the more traditional Monarch route. Gravekeeper’s Spy and Dekoichi help build resources, while Soul Exchange and Brain Control provide opportunities to use opposing monsters as tribute material.

The Monarch lineup includes Thestalos, Mobius, Zaborg, and Granmarg, giving the deck different ways to disrupt the opponent through Tribute Summons. Fusilier Dragon and Metamorphosis add a Fusion option alongside that main plan.

Efrain Fuentes — Monarch

Congratulations to Omar Martinez on the Regional win, and thanks to everyone who came out to play and shared their decklists!

How NeoDraft Works

The NeoDraft Series is an experimental NeoGoat format built around events featuring a different booster or set. Before the first turn of each duel, each player receives one random card from the featured pool. That card is applied according to the NeoDraft setup rules.

For this edition, the featured pool is Gold Series 4: Pyramids Edition. With cards ranging from Millennium Shield to Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning, Obelisk the Tormentor, and Five-Headed Dragon, the starting position can look very different from one duel to the next.

• Monsters: placed directly on the field in face-up Attack Position. They are treated as properly summoned.
• Flip Monsters: added to the player's hand instead of being placed on the field.
• Field and Continuous cards: activate automatically, with exceptions that may send specific cards to the player's hand.

Special Rules for Gold Series 4

• Toon Dark Magician Girl: when drafted, also place one Toon World face-up on that player's field.
• Prometheus, King of the Shadows: starts in the player's hand instead of on the field.
• Xing Zhen Hu: starts in the player's hand instead of starting face-up on the field.
