The Inaugural Weekly Webcam Results
This week Jasco held our first Weekly Webcam event with 92 entrants competing for chances at Plus Ultra prize packs and a chance at a raffle for a playmat! Today we are going to showcase the top 8 performing decks at the event, including highlighting some key cards in each deck and discussing their strategies!
17 Players signed up as the defensive Kirishima, making sure that several people would have a run for their money in order to try and stay undefeated, while the second most represented character Tokoyami ended up not making the top 8 at all! Between Eraser Head and Kirishima’s prominence in the event, it is becoming more clear that while a strong offence wins games, a consistent defence wins championships.
This was also the first Jasco-run tournament where the new mulligan & start of game rules have been implemented, and the results have been very positive so far! Our players had achieved a nearly 50/50 win-rate between player 1 and player 2 during the event, and while this may not be the largest sample size and we will continue to monitor games going forward, this may very well be the closest that the parity between 1st & 2nd player has been.

This Kirishima deck proves that Kirishima is viable on every one of his symbols! Kirishima can recycle Villains Defeated to pressure the rival’s deck, Tape Swing brings a solid win condition, and he has access to Heroic Lineage for some fantastic speed reduction. Kirishima’s consistency combined with the longevity granted through Void’s cards make it clear why this deck took the #1 spot!

1-A’s homeroom teacher comes in at a close second place, also undefeated, bringing a strong lineup of kicks mixed with the consistency of Void’s attacks. Aizawa’s consistent speed pump makes Flying Thruster Kick a strong contender in any matchup. Eraser Head’s speed reduction combined with cards like Heroic Lineage, Gotcha, Tape, and Mediator will help ensure that this 7 hander never gets hit!
3rd Place: Kamui Woods on Air

Kamui Woods ended up just snatching third place, having received no losses but a tie instead. This versatile deck can earn its wins with strings of Meteor Showers earned through turns of aggression, or it can push out a quick win when it needs to with a huge Home Run Comet or two! Sideboarding in to Jiro allows the deck to build up a more consistent offense if its needs to push faster than Kamui Woods is capable of.
4th Place: Eijiro Kirishima on Earth

1 Mashirao Ojiro
4 Missouri Smash
3 Smash
1 You’re So Obvious
1 Glamorous
The second Kirishima on our list, but the first on Earth! This build focuses heavily on strong punches, and brings a strong offensive suite with playsets of both Texas Smash and Relentless Barrage provide a huge threat on the opponent while Kirishima gets to set up his board. Apathetic is one of the most potent pieces of foundation control in Series 1, and Kirishima’s ability to recycle it can help make sure to protect his Coordinated Effort when any threat to it is placed on the board!
5th Place: Eijiro Kirishima on Good

Our third and final Kirishima to make top 8 is also on a different symbol than the others, this time showing off what the Good can do. This build can play much better towards a long game, with Earphone Jack allowing the deck to consider pressuring a win through deck out, and 4 copies of Reverse Throw being able to be returned to Kirishima’s hand through either Coordinated Effort or Celebrity Status allows the deck to consistently chip damage through.
6th Place: Eraser Head on Void

4 Recipro Extend
2 Recipro Acceleration Kick
Actions
4 ERASE!
Our second Eraser Head deck this week also comes in on the Void symbol, but with a heavier focus on the kick lineup. Recipro Acceleration Kick from the Plus Ultra packs can clear a long strings of attacks and allow Eraser Head to continue attacking even further! This just goes to show that if you are fighting against an Eraser Head, you should consider bringing cards that reset the speed of his attacks.
7th Place: Kyoka Jiro on Air

A well rounded Jiro with strong defenses comes in 7th place with a side of Wall Clings allowing it to survive the largest throws known to man. Lots of Flash attacks and consistent speed coming from Earphone Jack means that you are going to need to do more than rely on some speed reduction to block these attacks!

This Jiro deck brings a stronger focus on Home Run Comet than our 7th place finisher. Each of the attacks in this deck are designed to generate momentum to create the BIGGEST Home Run Comets that you’ve ever seen!
