JOSEPH CHOU WINS ARGCS LAS VEGAS!!! (& Coverage Highlights)

Congratulations to Joseph Chou, who just won ARGCS Las Vegas with his Bujin deck! And congrats to Admassu Williams, who came in second place playing Dragon Rulers.

In addition to a very interesting and surprising Top 4, this event also featured the first-ever best-of-5 match for the Finals. The epic and hard-fought match went all the way to Game Five before Chou was decided as the winner after a near-blowout combination of Solemn Warning and Full House gave him a severe setback, but a clutch Duality gave him the Dark Hole he needed for game!
