Thanks for the reply, this is what Darren had to say about his tournament run and overall thoughts "Overall I was a bit more worried about my matchup spreads going into a post ST-17 meta since a good Rapidmon/Magnamon player has a lot of tools to deal with Devas, but since the expectation was a lot of Leviamon and Red Hybrid it was still the deck I was the most comfortable and confident in. I didn't see the armours or Levia in the end and there were 3 rounds where I was one of the first tables to finish which is one of my favourite aspects about the deck. I lost in the finals in the Devas mirror due to some misplays and their deck having techs like Merciful mode which ended up being really good in the matchup, but I did get to game 3 and I felt like I could've taken it if I'd figured out the matchup sooner so I have no regrets about how I've built my deck. It's just consistent, powerful and fun, and I can see myself continuing to run it as it is until BT16 releases."
Hi, so in terms of Oceanic tournaments, Egman doesn't really post the results cause I don't think he has access to the results unless someone gives him it, but in terms of what made rop 8 during this particular tournament (going from first place), it was Apocalymon, Red Hybrid, Sovereign, Leomon, Leviamon, Apocalymon, Leviamon and Numemon. Sovereigns is a really good evergreen deck as it's mostly tribal in termsof the cards you play and it does really well in the current meta. We just had our IRL regional and Darren had come first with this same deck list!
Thanks for the deck profile man! Do you think we can get an updated tournament report/updated thoughts on the deck? Thanks and congratulations!

Hello, is there somewhere we can see the results of this ultimate cup? I've tried the usual, dgcmeta and egman, but can't seem to find it anywhere.
