Yu-Gi-Oh! Genesys is at Gnome Games Green Bay East on Saturdays!
The latest format for Yu-Gi-Oh! Genesys has arrived at Gnome Games! We’re hosting Saturday tournaments each week at 12:00pm for this new format, with $5+tax entry. Like our Advanced Format tournaments it is Win-A-Match, Win-A-Pack, with OTS packs being up for grabs!
But what is Genesys?
A new format of play and deck building that allows for more potential cards to be used!
The Genesys rules are simple:
-
- No Link Monsters or Pendulum Monsters are allowed. All other cards are allowed. The original field layout is used, with no Extra Monster Zones nor Pendulum Zones.
- The standard Forbidden & Limited Cards list is not used. All those cards can be used, except Link Monsters and Pendulum Monsters. Usual limit of 3 copies max of any card still applies.
- Deck construction uses a point system. Some cards are assigned a point value; most cards cost zero points. The total point cost of cards in your Main Deck, Extra Deck, and Side Deck (combined) cannot exceed the point cap for that event.
- The standard point cap is 100, but events can be run with any point cap, or even a zero-point cap! Official Tournament Stores can set their own caps for their tournaments.
Gnome Games is using the standard point cap of 100 for these tournaments. The 100 point cap is geared towards allowing players to use some otherwise Forbidden cards, but attempts to limit “First Turn Kills” that would otherwise be reliable because of their strength.
Konami developed a tool to help with deck construction in the Genesys format, available here:
There’s also a blog to help with learning this new format, as well as to keep up with changes as the point system gets adjusted!

Join us at Gnome Games Green Bay East for a Tea Witches Demo and Tea Party!
Saturday, October 25th
Starting at 2pm
In Tea Witches, tea vendors from across the land must summon and serve lines of witches in order to gain their loyalty, all while sending out magical TeaPups to entice Celebri-Teas and find ways to further enhance their prestige. By growing their loyal fan base, upgrading their hut to maximize service, and collecting all the right tips and toppings they can prove that their tea reigns supreme.
The game lasts four rounds, each representing one day of the Teaquinox Faire. Each day has two phases. Don’t worry though, one of our Gnomes will be present to demo and assist with the game.
