After Magic: The Gathering having its Pro Tournament in late May, fans of the Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game will have their chance to duel for gold at the Canadian World Championship Qualifier 2010. Konami Digital Entertainment will be holding this event in the International Centre in Mississauga, Ontario, on June 26 and 27. 

Duelists who have travelled from across Canada will join together for two days of intense competition, with each player hoping to go home with the coveted title of Canadian National Champion and the opportunity to compete at the World Championship event in August.

For Duelists looking for more action beyond the head-to-head preliminary rounds and for those players just learning the game, the Canada World Championship Qualifier will also offer exciting Yu-Gi-Oh! public events on Saturday and Sunday, including Win-A-Mat tournaments, Go For the Gold events, and Attack of the Giant Card. The championship is even encouraging our younger Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelists to come and play, with Dragon Duel tournaments for Duelists aged 12 and under.  The event will also showcase the 2011 Regional Qualifier tournaments on Sunday.

Head on up to the International Centre’s Orion Ballroom (900 Airport Road, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada L4V 1E8) on June 26 for the Last Chance Regional Qualifier, and June 27 for the World Championship Qualifier.

Entry into the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG World Championship Qualifier 2010 is free for Duelists who have qualified for the event through official KDE Regional Qualifiers or with a top finish at a Shonen Jump Championship or Yu-Gi-Oh! Championship Series event.
