  1. NAWCQ Needs to be updated.

    • Akira says:

      My apologies. I have just returned from judging at the Asia Championship 2015 in Taiwan, so updates for this week will be slightly delayed.

    • It’s ok. Just for some help:
      1st Place Burning Abyss
      2nd Place Burning Abyss
      4th Place Ritual Beast
      7th Place Ritual Beast

  2. Spitz says:

    Where in Kyoto ?!

  3. Gerwin says:

    I,d like to know that too. As far as I can tell, the address isn,t made public yet(but I cannot read Japanese). The Google Maps link on the page of the tournament is the Kyoto town hall,which does not seem like a good location for a card game tournament to me. I especially change the schedule of my holiday to be able to attend the World Championship,so if anyone has the address of the venue PLEASE let me know. Thanks in advance.

    • Akira says:

      Unfortunately there is currently no information of the actual venue where the World Championship 2015 will be held in Kyoto.

      That location is just a placeholder until I can get accurate information from perhaps one of the invited players who has received the player’s packet, or the official website.

    The south american representative is brazilian. Pls fix

  6. If I recalled it correctly, there was a qualifier in Middle East area this year. Is that right?

    • Gerwin says:

      No. There was a rumor that the winner of the Kuwait national championship would go to Worlds.
      That turned out to be false, he got to play in the European WCQ instead. Presumably, the rest of the Middle-Eastern countries where Yu-gi-oh! is played,will also be represented at the European WCQ but that is unknown as of now.

  7. most boring worlds ever to many mirror matches …. if they decide to play similar decks

  8. Jaken says:

    For the World Championships, which ruling is in play ? OCG or TCG ? As I see TCG exclusive decks such as Burning Abyss being used..
