124 players came together to battle for glory. Eight rose to the top. Come see what each of these master duelists had to say about their experience in the Goat Format Championship 16 event!
What decks or players were you looking forward to playing against? People who drew bad. What decks or players were you NOT looking forward to playing against? People who drew good. What card had been overperforming for you today? Dustshoot. Being able to see my opponent's hand made setting up a Return play much easier. Also, shoutout to Solemn Judgement. Sometimes you just wanna say "no." What has been your favorite moment of the event so far? Flipping Return for game in the grand finals after Ghost Solemned my top-decked Pot of Greed. Then watching the stream back the next day and hearing Mascis and JDZ's reaction to it. Magic. If you could go back, what (if any) changes would you would make to your deck today? I wouldn't change anything. I think the deck did exactly what I and my teammates wanted it to do.
What has been your favorite moment of the event so far? When I top-decked Cipher Soldier for game against my teammate Sdlkilla. That top deck sent me to Grand Finals. If you could go back, what (if any) changes would you would make to your deck today? I didn't side for Burn in this event because I saw the worlds hype slowly wearing off. I prepared much more for warrior this time. My bracket only had one Panda Burn deck, but it was difficult to beat without any side. I'll have to find space in my side again for Burn.
What has been your favorite moment of the event so far? When I won my winners semis to get my first invite. If you could go back, what (if any) changes would you would make to your deck today? None.
What has been your favorite moment of the event so far? Top decking Barrel to beat Dale (D3o). If you could go back, what (if any) changes would you would make to your deck today? I'd cut the one Magic Jammer for Giant Trunade.
What has been your favorite moment of the event so far? Match vs JCVD. If you could go back, what (if any) changes would you would make to your deck today? The last minute change was the second Spell Canceler over the second Mobius - Definitely missed the second Mobius.
What has been your favorite moment of the event so far? Finally going to bed at 2:30 am. If you could go back, what (if any) changes would you would make to your deck today? Monster reincarnation and Chaos Sorcerer worked really bad, so I think I'll change those cards
monsters most of the time. Luckily, I had the Giant Soldier of Stone in the Side (haha). And, as usual, I hate playing against my brother in tournaments (didn‘t happen this time fortunately). What card had been overperforming for you today? What can I say? Emissary it is. It often resulted in card advantage plays by crashing a 1600 monster or eating a removal. It also almost always replaces itself where other Vanillas go for a sad -1. Abyss Soldier worked very well, too. What has been your favorite moment of the event so far? Me almost blundering a match away by forgetting that my Abyss Soldier can also target S/T cards and only realizing that in BP. Fortunately, I didn‘t get punished for it this time and could still set up for a game-commanding field position in M2. If you could go back, what (if any) changes would you would make to your deck today? Definitely quite a few. two Zaborgs probably work better than three, they were a bit clunky. Also, the Creature Swaps did underperform. I‘d switch them for one Mind Control & one Smashing Ground. The Brain Control was also not super great and I‘d definitely run Tribute to the Doomed over Back to Square One the next time.
The decks that I did not look forward to play against were Royal Magical Library, Empty Jar, and I would add Reasoning Gate variants. The reason is because sometimes the different variation of monsters with different star levels are played which makes the deck even harder to beat, when calling a number from Reasoning. Matt Uber would be the duelist who I would not look forward to play against since he performs well with his deck. What card had been overperforming for you today? Jinzo What has been your favorite moment of the event so far? When I beat the 2021 Goat Format World Champion Delinkquent. If you could go back, what (if any) changes would you would make to your deck today? My main deck performed fantastic, and I would not change it. In my side deck, the second Asura Priest needs to be dropped for one Mystical Space Typhoon. I decided to remove MST last minute because of hardly siding it in, but it is absolutely needed against Stall cards.
