With Day 1 over, Brisbane has provided an amazingly diverse Top 8. Vs. System newcomer Alex Antonios topped the Swiss with Migga City, making it back-to-back $10K Top 8 finishes for the successful Yu-Gi-Oh! player. Deckbuilder extraordinaire Shaun Hayward proved his uncanny ability once more as his Rigged Elections build landed him in fourth at the end of the Swiss. Since Rigged Elections is matched up against Bobby Rana's new Shadowpact deck, all eyes will surely be on this matchup for Day 2. The High Voltage on TDC Stall match should also be interesting to watch, and is fast becoming standard fare at $10K Top 8s.

The most important result of today’s Swiss is that it’s shown that Infinite Crisis has clearly made an impact on the metagame. With Mr. Mxyzptlk, Troublesome Trickster and Absolute Dominance finding their way into many decks, and an extremely solid Shadowpact deck sailing into third place, the set's power is becoming apparent. Will the players sporting Crisis be able to capitalize on this power and take home the trophy, or will a more traditional deck find a way to win? Find out tomorrow as live coverage of $10K Brisbane continues!
