Major Card Tournaments This Weekend: June 20 to June 21
One Piece begins its OP16 competitive run with Regionals in Peoria and Mexico City, while Gundam heads to Barcelona before Eternal Nexus.
A quieter weekend, but there are stuill three major events in the games we cover, led by One Piece and Gundam Regionals.
The One Piece Card Game Peoria Regional takes place June 20-21 at the Peoria Civic Center. More importantly, this is one of the first major North American events after the release of OP16, The Time of Battle, giving us an early look at whether new Leaders like Yamato can immediately affect the format.
One Piece also has a Mexico City Regional on the same dates at Expo Reforma. With both events running during OP16’s opening competitive weekend, their results should provide a useful first comparison between the two.
Gundam Card Game heads to Spain for the Barcelona Regional, running June 20-21. Recent events have produced wins for Justice Blockers, Barbatos Rush, and Zeon Aggro, so the GD04 format remains fairly open near its end.
Barcelona is also one of the last major opportunities to examine the current format before Eternal Nexus releases on June 26.
