This week’s NeoGoat event ran for four rounds and ended with a familiar name at the top. The Earth player navigated the field once again, reaching the finals and taking the tournament after a decisive match against Gadget.
While several decks showed solid performances throughout the rounds, the final showcased why Earth remains one of the most resilient and punishing strategies in the format when piloted by experience.
Round 1: Chaos 🏆 vs Unknown Deck
Round 2: Chaos vs Earth 🏆
Round 3: Earth 🏆 vs Flip Deck
Final Match: Earth 🏆 vs Gadget
The final was fast, sharp, and ended with one of those moments that perfectly illustrates NeoGoat’s swingy decision points.
Duel 1
The first duel ended early—by turn three—after an aggressive but risky line from the Gadget player.
-
The Gadget player attacked a face-up Nimble Momonga using Injection Fairy Lily, paying 2000 LP to boost Lily to 3400 ATK.
-
The attack succeeded, but the Earth player immediately floated into two additional Nimble Momongas, stabilizing the field instead of collapsing.
From there, the Earth deck turned defense into momentum:
-
On the following turn, the Earth player Tribute Summoned Jinzo using one Momonga.
-
Last Will was activated, bringing out D.D. Warrior Lady.
-
The Rock Spirit was Special Summoned by banishing a Momonga from the Graveyard.
Another Nimble Momonga was Flip Summoned.
With the board fully assembled, the Earth player attacked Injection Fairy Lily using D.D. Warrior Lady.
Facing Jinzo, multiple monsters, and no clean way back into the duel, the Gadget player conceded on the spot.
Closing Thoughts
The final duel was short, but it said a lot. Overcommitting with Injection Fairy Lily against Momonga is always dangerous, and the Earth deck punished that decision perfectly—turning one attack into an overwhelming board state in a single turn cycle.
Once again, the veteran Earth player demonstrated why patience, resource management, and understanding floaters like Momonga remain critical in NeoGoat. A well-earned win in a format where experience still matters.
