Episode 73 - Chaos Impact

## Chaos Impact

Chaos Impact is the seventy-third episode of Yu-Gi-Oh! Progression Playoff, and the tenth episode of Season 6, the VRAINS arc. It debuted on MBT Yu-Gi-Oh's YouTube channel on August 20, 2022. In this episode, MBT's dog Sadie interrupts his explanation of the cards in the set in a desperate attempt to make the episode watchable. Siberian also makes an appearance in this episode. Gavin is the only one to go 2-0 with his Cauldron Orcust bullshit, while Leah goes 0-2 with Draco Berserker Turbo and gets the double ban.

## Background

This set introduced the "Unchained" archetype, as well as new support for the "Marincess", "Dinowrestler", "Gladiator Beast", "Aroma", "Tenyi", "Evil Eye", and "Dream Mirror" archetypes. Other notable cards include Starliege Seyfert, Infinitrack Brutal Dozer, Gallant Granite, I:P Masquerena, and Striker Dragon.

MBT's lead has widened after going undefeated for 4 consecutive weeks as he threatens now to shut the door on his competition, while Gavin and Danny give chase hoping to close the gap. Brent hopes to continue the momentum he gained from the previous week into this one, while Leah hopes to break through for a 2-0 after 3 1-1s in a row.
