Frequently Asked Questions regarding Yu-Gi-Oh!5D's TRADING CARD GAME Nationals and Organized Play
Dear Duelists,
We are extremely pleased to announce today that all European and Latin American National Championships will be held as planned. Following up on that, we want to answer the questions you may still have regarding these events, and the immediate future of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's TCG Organized Play in general:
Who is going to run my Nationals - Konami or Upper Deck?
A: The European and Latin American Nationals will be Konami events.
My country's Nationals already took place and were run by Upper Deck - were these official?
A: Anybody who has already qualified for the European Championship will be extended an invitation to the European Championship.
I heard that the Game Mats and SJC Prize Cards that Upper Deck promised as prizes were cancelled.
A: Although the Game Mats and Prize Cards cannot be given out at those events, Konami honors its promises, and will send out those prizes as soon as possible afterwards.
I qualified for Nationals at a qualifier event, and was promised another GameMat as a prize for that, but Upper Deck said you didn't allow them to give it to me.
A: Don't worry - we will be sending out a Game Mat to you in due course!
Are there going to be side events at the Nationals?
A: There should be side events at the Nationals, although there may be some limit to availability.
Is there going to be a Yu-Gi-Oh! European Championship in Lille on June 27/28?
A: There is definitely going to be a Yu-Gi-Oh! European Championship, but we will need a bit more time before we can announce details.
I heard the Australian Nationals were cancelled. Is that true?
A: There will be an Australian Nationals - we will be announcing the revised details shortly. Keep visiting www.yugioh-card.com and click on the Australian flag for details!
What about the Qualifiers for Australian Nationals?
A: Upper Deck will run these in Konami's name and on Konami's behalf, as they do for the other Nationals.
What about the Raging Battle Sneak Previews that were scheduled for May 9 and 10?
A: Unfortunately, these can't take place on those dates, due to unavoidable delays in production. We will announce more details regarding upcoming releases as soon as possible.
What about other tournaments, my ranking, COSSY or my judge level?
A: Again, we need to ask for a little more of your patience on these issues, but promise to give you news on all of them soon.
Where can I find news when you have it?
A: All news we have will be posted on the official Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG webpage: www.yugioh-card.com. Visit us there and click on your country's flag.
I have some other questions.
A: Please send us a mail at yugioh@konami-europe.net; we will get back to you as soon as we can.
