Gold Series 4: Pyramids Edition is coming to NeoDraft! Eight duelists selected from our October 6, 2026 tournament at Cartoncito Cards have been invited to a special online event in NeoGoat Pro. This time, the random cards come from Gold Series 4, and the winner gets to take home a real piece of the set: one of those golden triangles.
Eight Players, One Gold Series 4 Box
The champion will win one individual box of Gold Series 4: Pyramids Edition — one triangular package, not the full display.
The other participants will receive one free entry to a local tournament, provided they complete the online event. Make sure you finish your matches to claim your entry!
Invited Players
Martinz
Rojo
Tonatiuh
Bernardo
脕ngel Mart铆nez
Pollo
Felipe Pinales
Rodrigo Montiel
No fixed match times: each pair of players will arrange a date and time that works for both of them. If you are on the invite list and cannot participate, please let the organizer know so a replacement can be found.
Required NeoGoat Pro Versions
All matches will be played online in NeoGoat Pro using the new versions:
Android: Beta 66
Windows: Beta 61
Update NeoGoat Pro before playing! Install the latest version for your platform to create online NeoDraft matches. For now, the Gold Series 4 card pool is only available in tournaments.
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.
Gold Series 4 NeoDraft Card Pool
These are the 50 cards in this event's random-card pool.
An online rematch, a meeting between teammates, and a 2–0 finish for Chapa! On Tuesday, October 6, 22 players gathered at Cartoncito Cards for five rounds of NeoGoat. We have one featured match from every round, starting with Gaona against Palacios and ending with Gustavo Chapa’s Chaos Warrior against Claudio H’s Dino Zombie.
From the last match of the weekend’s online tournament to the first round at the store! Gaona and Palacios found themselves across the table from each other again, this time trading the online field for their physical cards at Cartoncito.
Gaona brought his Hydro Banisher Monarch deck, while Palacios stayed with Good Stuff. No waiting until the end of the tournament for this pairing—the rematch was how their Tuesday started.
Gaona took the win, getting through a familiar opponent to open his tournament.
Round 2 — Perales vs. Martinz: A Breakers Team Matchup
EARTH vs. Dark Scorpions Tech
Round 2 put two members of Breakers Team on opposite sides of the table. Perales brought an EARTH deck, while Martinz played a Warrior-style build with several Dark Scorpions.
The Warrior label only tells part of the story here. Martinz’s less expected card choices are a good reason to check out this recording, especially for anyone who enjoys seeing what players add around a familiar deck idea.
Being on the same team did not keep them from having to settle the match: Perales came away with the win.
Round 3 — Claudio H vs. V铆ctor Ahumada: Dinosaurs, Zombies, and Dragons
Dino Zombie vs. 馃敟馃挧 Frost and Flame
Claudio H brought his Dino Zombie deck to the third featured match, facing V铆ctor Ahumada and an interesting build based on FIRE and WATER monsters, with Frost and Flame Dragon as its centerpiece.
That gives this recording a different flavor from the first two matches. Ahumada’s deck is worth a look for anyone curious about taking the FIRE/WATER route instead of another familiar pairing of attributes.
With two WATER monsters and one FIRE monster in the Graveyard, a player banishes all three to Special Summon Frost and Flame Dragon from their hand. They then discard a card to target and destroy an opposing monster, opening a path for an attack. A setup turn suddenly becomes a chance to push damage.
Claudio H won the match, putting Dino Zombie on the winning side of this encounter. Ahumada’s Frost and Flame build still gives us something interesting to explore in the recording.
Perales returned to our featured matches in Round 4, this time facing Gustavo Chapa. After watching his EARTH deck against Martinz’s Warrior-style build, we now get to see it against Chaos Warrior.
Two recordings of the same deck against different opponents make a nice comparison: same EARTH player, but a different matchup and a different result.
Chapa took this one, giving us the first of his two wins captured in the closing rounds. Next up for our coverage: Chaos Warrior against Claudio H’s Dino Zombie.
Our last recording brought together two players we had already seen win on camera: Chapa, coming off the featured match against Perales, and Claudio H, who had beaten Ahumada in Round 3.
Now it was Chaos Warrior against Dino Zombie to close the five-round event.
The recorded match result was 2–0 for Gustavo Chapa. No third game this time: Chapa took both duels against Claudio H and finished our tournament coverage with back-to-back match wins.
From Gaona and Palacios running it back at the store to the Breakers Team pairing, Ahumada’s Frost and Flame deck, and Chapa’s 2–0 finish, there is a little of everything in this Tuesday’s recordings.
Thanks to all 22 players who joined us at Cartoncito Cards! Pick a matchup, watch the games, and let us know which deck caught your attention.
WIND gets the spotlight in NeoGoat this week! Carlos Garza took Wind Aggro to the top at Pel贸n Cards in Plaza Garibaldi, while Wind Duck made an appearance in Sunday's online games. Today we are sharing both lists, along with a bonus pick for the Fusion fans: Gaia the Dragon Champion.
Sone WIND builds from the weekend and one classic monster joining the lineup. Let's take a look!
Wind Aggro — Carlos Garza, 1st Place at Pel贸n Cards
Carlos Garza won the Saturday, October 3 tournament at Pel贸n Cards with Wind Aggro. A good way to start October for WIND, and a winning list to check out for anyone looking to take the attribute to their next locals.
Congratulations to Carlos! Here is the deck he brought to first place:
Wind Aggro — Carlos Garza · 1st Place · Pel贸n Cards · October 3, 2026
Wind Aggro was not the only WIND list getting some play over the weekend. Wind Duck also showed up online on Sunday, October 4, giving us another build to share.
With both lists side by side, take a look at their card choices. Would you stick with one of them, or borrow a few ideas from each for your own version?
Wind Duck — Seen in online play on October 4, 2026.
And now for a small detour. Gaia the Dragon Champion is a WIND monster, which gives us an excuse to include a deck built around the classic Fusion Monster.
Gaia the Dragon Champion — Not a fully WIND deck, but the boss monster qualifies!
On Sunday, October 4, 2026, we had 13 players
and four rounds in our online tournament on
NeoGoat Pro. Gaona finished in first place
with a 4–0 match record and an 8–2 game record.
He had to get through two matches that went to Game 3 before closing the
tournament with two straight 2–0 wins.
Watch Gaona's Full Tournament Run
This video includes all four of Gaona's matches in sequence,
from the opening round against Jinzo to the last round against palacios.
All ten games are included, so you can follow the whole run from start to finish.
Gaona started the tournament a game down. Thestalos and
Gravekeeper's Spy put him under pressure in the opener,
and he conceded after falling to 2,400 LP. He answered in Game 2 with
Mobius and Zaborg, with Jinzo conceding
after Gaona activated Brain Control.
In Game 3, Brain Control took a Green Gadget, which Gaona
immediately Tributed for his own copy of Jinzo.
That gave him a 2,400-point direct attack as early as turn two.
A few turns later, his opponent conceded, and Gaona had his first match win.
Round 2 — Gaona vs. Breaker: 2–1
Next came Breaker's WIND deck. Gaona took Game 1 after
using Soul Exchange to turn the opposing
Luster Dragon into a Tribute for Mobius.
Breaker fought back in Game 2: Slate Warrior and
Rising Air Current kept the pressure on, and Gaona
conceded at 800 LP.
The deciding game gave us one of the best plays of the run.
With Gravekeeper's Spy providing monsters on the field, Gaona summoned
Tribe-Infecting Virus, discarded Soul Exchange, and
destroyed both Sonic Ducks.
Spy and Tribe then attacked for a combined 2,800 damage,
leaving Breaker at 1,600 LP. The game continued for another couple of turns
before Breaker conceded, giving Gaona his second 2–1 win.
Round 3 — Gaona vs. claudio h: 2–0
Gaona's first 2–0 came against claudio h.
In Game 1, Zaborg and Jinzo landed a combined
4,800 direct damage in one Battle Phase,
setting up the first win of the match.
Game 2 was closer. Gaona fell to 1,600 LP, then used
Soul Exchange to Tribute claudio h's
Berserk Gorilla for Jinzo.
Lightning Vortex took care of Jinzo on the following turn,
but Gaona still found the finish: Breaker the Magical Warrior
came down and attacked directly for 1,900 damage.
Gaona moved into the last round at 3–0.
Round 4 — Gaona vs. palacios: 2–0
The first game against palacios was the longest of Gaona's
run, lasting 21 turns. One memorable exchange started
with Brain Control taking Don Zaloog.
Gaona used it to attack directly for 1,400 damage, discard
Mirror Force from palacios' hand, and then Tribute it
for Mobius.
palacios answered with Torrential Tribute, destroying
Mobius and keeping the game going.
Later, D.D. Assailant brought palacios down to just
200 LP. The concession came after Gaona summoned
Gravekeeper's Spy, putting him one game away from finishing undefeated.
In Game 2, Hydrogeddon destroyed
Blade Knight in battle, brought out another copy,
and the second Hydrogeddon attacked directly.
The match ended on turn eight: Smashing Ground
cleared a monster, then Gaona activated
Breaker the Magical Warrior's effect on a set card.
palacios conceded before the effect resolved, completing Gaona's
4–0 finish.
Congratulations to Gaona on first place!
There was plenty to watch along the way: Brain Control turning opposing
monsters into Tributes, Tribe clearing two Sonic Ducks, and Breaker
finding the final attack with Gaona down to 1,600 LP.
Thanks to everyone who joined us for another online tournament on NeoGoat Pro!
October is here, and we have four loaner decks ready for the new NeoGoat banlist! This time, we have two different takes on Zombies after Pyramid Turtle's ban, a Dragon list built around Horus and Future Fusion, and a familiar Harpie deck returning for the new format.
Each deck comes with a 40-card Main Deck and a 15-card Side Deck. Below you'll find the deck images, a look at how each list plays, and links to open them in the Deck Library.
1. Zombie Midrange
Main: 40 | Extra: 0 | Side: 15
Pyramid Turtle is gone, so Gozuki has some work to do. This build uses it to put Zombies in the Graveyard for Book of Life, with Ryu Kokki and Vampire Lord handling the bigger attacks. Once the Graveyards are set up, you can make the opponent deal with a monster, bring it back, and keep attacking.
Goblin Zombie helps keep another monster in hand and can search Gozuki. It also works nicely with Creature Swap: give it to the opponent, destroy it in battle, and get your search when it reaches your Graveyard. Book of Moon and the removal lineup help you make those attacks count while the revival cards give you something to follow up with.
This version starts with a familiar play: Unexpected Dai for Insect Knight. That's a 1900 ATK monster on the field with your Normal Summon still available. You can follow it with Gozuki, add another attacker, or Tribute it for Jinzo or Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch.
The Insect Knight can stay and fight, too. Shrink and Rush Recklessly help it get through bigger monsters, while Breaker, Exiled Force and Kycoo give the deck different ways to deal with the opponent's field. Gozuki and the two copies of Book of Life keep the Zombie follow-up available after those first attackers are gone.
If you want a bigger finish, this list has three Five-Headed Dragons waiting in the Extra Deck. Masked Dragon keeps the smaller Dragons coming, Exploder Dragon can trade with an opposing threat, and Totem Dragon helps with the Tribute Summons. The Horus line also gives you a route into LV8 and its Spell negation.
Future Fusion gives the deck another way to prepare its Fusion plays. NeoGoat uses its modern text: materials go to the Graveyard during your first Standby Phase after activation, and the Fusion Summon happens during your second. Getting those five Dragons into the Graveyard also sets up Dragon's Mirror, so the opponent has another Five-Headed Dragon to worry about.
There is also Dimension Fusion for a later push with banished Dragons. It can bring back the opponent's monsters too, so take a look at both players' banished cards before committing to that play.
Harpie's Fragrance returns with the same 40-card Main Deck as the August loaner. It already played two Harpie Oracle and two Unexpected Dai, so October's new limits didn't require any changes there. The Side Deck gets a small update: Soul Taker and D.D. Warrior Lady take the two Mobius slots.
The main interaction is still a good reason to play the deck. Anti-Spell Fragrance makes both players Set their Spells and wait until their next turn to use them. That gives Harpies' Hunting Ground time to remove the opponent's waiting Spells when you summon a Harpie Lady or Harpie Lady Sisters.
Harpie Queen finds Hunting Ground, Elegant Egotist adds another monster, and Hysteric Party brings the Harpies back for another round of attacks. If you enjoyed the August version, the same plays are still here.
Pick a list, get a few duels in, and see which cards you want to keep for your next tournament. Each Side Deck gives you somewhere to start, and you can adjust it for the decks you face.
You can find these lists and more in our Deck Library. Let us know how your games go!
