All-Star Character Tournament Rules

The All-Star Character (ACS), is an innovative tournament format that expands “Concept Duels”, an idea by Konami where Players are challenged to build decks around Character themes.

For example, one of the themes may be Kaiba - Must have at least 15 Blue-Eyes cards in the Main Deck. Thus, as long as the Player abides by this rule, they are free to make the rest of their deck in any way they please. These Concept Duels were exclusive to card shops in Japan, but we are bringing them online.

Do not be confused with “Character Decks” that use decks that consists of cards a character in the anime has used. This is “Character themed”, which is more practical as it allows one to make their deck fairly competitive.

This tournament includes most characters from all seasons of the anime and manga. All Players must select one character and construct a deck based on that character’s deck requirements. This tournament is always held using either the WCS Banlist with the All Card Pool.

Below is a list of character themes one can select from:
