The Duelist Genesis
August 9th and 10th
On this weekend the Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME takes Dueling to
a new level of excitement. It is The Duelist Genesis sneak preview.
The first time you can play with the cards from the new booster which
introduces the high-octane monsters of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s. 5D’s is the
newest Yu-Gi-Oh! television series and it will be hitting the
airwaves this September. But why wait, add the coolest new cards
to your collection now!
The Duelist Genesis is the first booster with the new white-bordered Synchro
Monster cards. With the power of new Tuner monsters, you can combine the
Levels of your monsters to Summon mighty Synchro Monsters. Come to the
Sneak Preview and you could be the first to get "Stardust Dragon" or
"Red Dragon Archfiend" – amazing new Dragons from Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's!
Come Duel in the Sneak Preview and you'll get a new "Avenging Knight Parshath"
Synchro Monster card, and a chance to win an exclusive "The Duelist Genesis"
T-shirt! Be sure to show up early – supplies of all items are limited and late
comers could get left in the dust.
What is a Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME Sneak Preview?
Every three months, a new Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG booster pack set is released with brand-new cards to collect and add
to your Deck, making it different, better, and more fun!
A Sneak Preview is the first chance anywhere to get these new cards. Each Duelist gets a few packs from the
new set, then builds a new Deck using only those cards. Everybody plays against other Duelists who are also
using only these new cards. Since the cards are new to everyone, it's a friendly and fun environment to play
in. Afterward, the cards are theirs to keep.
What can I do as a parent?
Some kids are nervous about finding opponents to play with. You can encourage your kids to ask others to Duel,
or ask a staff volunteer for help finding opponents. After your child plays against five opponents, they'll get
an additional new booster pack just for playing, no matter how many games were won or lost. This is called "Open Dueling."
At the event there will also be structured tournaments, known as "Swiss." These are much more competitive, and will
take more time than Open Dueling, although there are greater prizes available for the winners. If your child is new to
playing or not ready for a competitive environment, we suggest you point them to Open Dueling for a more relaxed atmosphere.
