On Sunday, September 27, 2026, we had 16 players and four rounds in our online tournament on NeoGoat Pro, using the October 2026 banlist.
This time, we're following shadowefra's Warrior Chaos and Dragon's Horus–Totem, from their opening rounds to the match between them. Here are the two videos and a look at what happened along the way.
Shadowefra’s path— Warrior Chaos.
shadowefra brought Blade Knight, Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer and Chaos Sorcerer. His first three opponents were Spellcaster, Skill Drain Fiends and Gadget Monarch, the matches were long and full of stall cards.

Round 1: vs. Pepe — Spellcaster
Pepe's Spellcaster deck took the first duel, putting shadowefra behind right from the opening round. He needed both remaining games and managed to win them back to back, taking the match 2–1. No easy start for Warrior Chaos.
Round 2: vs. Chapa — Skill Drain Fiends
Chapa brought Skill Drain alongside Mist Archfiend and Fusilier Dragon, the Dual-Mode Beast. This time, shadowefra won both recorded duels for a 2–0 result, getting through the Fiend matchup without needing another deciding game.
Round 3: vs. Wabo — Gadget Monarch
Wabo had more than Gadgets and Monarchs waiting for him: Messenger of Peace and Wall of Revealing Light added another obstacle. Getting monsters onto the field was one thing; getting to attack through that backrow was another.
shadowefra took game one, Wabo won game two, and they went to a decider. shadowefra won the third duel to finish the match 2–1 and reach the last round at 3–0.
Dragon’s path — Future Fusion Horus
Dragon registered a build with Masked Dragon, Totem Dragon and Horus the Black Flame Dragon, plus Future Fusion and Dragon's Mirror to bring out Five-Headed Dragon. Those big Fusion summons showed up more than once during his matches.

Round 1: vs. claudio h — EARTH Monarch
In the first duel against claudio h, Horus LV6 evolved into LV8 on turn three. Later, Dragon's Mirror brought out Five-Headed Dragon on turn nine, and Dragon won the opener. The match eventually went to a third game, played in a separate room.
In that deciding duel, Dragon used a different deck, featuring Reasoning, Monster Gate and Cyber-Stein rather than his registered Horus–Totem list. Cyber-Stein brought out King Dragun on turn one, followed by another King Dragun through Metamorphosis on turn three.
On turn five, Premature Burial revived Fusilier Dragon, and the turn also included Reckless Greed and Reasoning into Jinzo before Dragon won the duel. The match was initially recorded as a 2–1 win, but that deck change would lead to his disqualification later in the event.
Round 2: vs. Gaona — Hydrogeddon / Banisher Monarch
Gaona won the opening duel. Dragon answered in game two, where Totem Dragon returned to the field and turn nine featured Horus LV6 alongside a Five-Headed Dragon summoned through Dragon's Mirror. Dragon took that game, sending the match to a third duel.
The decider lasted 32 turns. Dragon activated Future Fusion on turn ten, used Pulling the Rug on turn eleven, and summoned Five-Headed Dragon through Future Fusion on turn fourteen. Even that was not the end of the game: there was still a long way to go before Dragon finally won and took the match 2–1.
Round 3: vs. panquecito — Red-Eyes / Future Fusion
panquecito brought a Red-Eyes / Future Fusion deck, so this time there were Dragons on both sides. Dragon won both recorded duels, with the second featuring a particularly big turn.
Future Fusion was activated on turn two and brought out Five-Headed Dragon on turn six. Then Dragon's Mirror summoned another one that same turn. Apparently, one Five-Headed Dragon was not enough.
Final Round : Shadowefra vs. Dragon
The last round brought Warrior Chaos against Horus–Totem. In the opening duel, Dragon used Exploder Dragon, brought back Totem Dragon and evolved Horus into LV8. Brain Control also appeared during the game, which Dragon won.
After that first duel, Dragon was disqualified for the deck change in his round-one decider against claudio h. shadowefra was awarded the match and became the tournament champion.
Congratulations to shadowefra! Thanks to everyone who joined the tournament. Enjoy the matches, and see you at the next NeoGoat event!
