WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP QUALIFIER IN CHICAGO TO DETERMINE NEW NORTH AMERICAN Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME CHAMPION

 

North American Dragon Duel Champion also to be Crowned

 

El Segundo, CA (June 27, 2013) – Duelists have been preparing their Decks and participating in qualifying play for months in anticipation of the upcoming Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME (TCG) North American World Championship Qualifier (WCQ). Scheduled for July 13th -14th at Navy Pier in Chicago, this invite-only tournament is expected to attract more than one thousand enthused players from the United States and Canada.

Hosted by Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. (Konami) this premier-level event is the only event for Duelists to earn the right to represent North America at the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG World Championship in Las Vegas, Nevada August 10th - 11th. Additionally, two* young players will get the prestigious opportunity to represent those born in 2000 or later in Las Vegas at the North American Dragon Duel Championship. The North American WCQ caps a tournament season which saw more than 45,000 Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG players participate in Regional tournaments across the United States and Canada.


Dueling begins in earnest Saturday morning but for those Duelists not yet qualified, there is one more opportunity to do so during the Last Chance Qualifier or the Last Chance Dragon Duel Qualifier on Friday, July 12th. During the Main Event at the WCQ, some of the best Duelists in North America will be pitted against one another, each vying for a spot at the coveted Final Round table. The head-to-head Dueling is sure to get intense fast as players try to make the most of their cards and strategies on Saturday. Duelists that perform the best will make it to the second day of competition. By Sunday afternoon, all eyes will be on the final two contenders, seated across from each other as they face-off, in hopes to be crowned North American Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG Champion!

For the second year, Konami is pleased to host the North American Dragon Duel World Championship Qualifier, open to Duelists born 2000 or later, to be held during the North American WCQ.  The Dragon Duel will showcase the skill and impressive wherewithal of these talented young players. The winning Dragon Duelists will also win a trip to Las Vegas to play against the top Dragon Duelists from around the world in the Dragon Duel World Championship.
