21 Players • Multiple Rounds • Featured Matches & Deck Innovation
Another strong turnout for NeoGoat, with 21 players battling through a diverse field shaped by the April 2026 card pool. This event delivered a great mix of classic strategies and experimental builds pushing the format forward.
Round 2 - Dark Magician Girl Dragon Knight vs Pure Elemental HERO Fusion
A flashy and aggressive duel where a Spellcaster fusion strategy faced off against a streamlined HERO build.
The Dark Magician Girl engine aimed to resolve The Eye of Timaeus plays into Dark Magician Girl the Dragon Knight, backed by Spellcaster utility and pressure. However, the HERO deck proved more consistent, quickly assembling fusion threats and maintaining tempo.
👉 Result: Elemental HERO Fusion takes the win through cleaner setup and sustained pressure.
Round 3 - Zombies vs Gravekeepers
A classic control matchup.
Gravekeepers tried to lock the game with Necrovalley, but the Zombie deck managed to navigate around it and apply pressure through recursive threats and smart resource use.
👉 Result: Zombies break through and take the match.
⚖️ Round 4 - Chaos vs Chaos — Mirror Match
A pure skill matchup where both players traded removal, graveyard setup, and timing windows.
As expected, the duel came down to resource management and who could best leverage Chaos monsters at the right moment.
👉 Result: One Chaos deck advances after a tight exchange-heavy duel.
Final Match - Zombies vs Chaos
The final showcased one of the most consistent decks of the tournament: Zombies.
Against Chaos, the Zombie strategy demonstrated its strength:

👉 Winner: 🧟 Zombies take the tournament.
