Episode 56 - Clash of Rebellions

## Clash of Rebellions

Clash of Rebellions is the fifty-sixth episode of Yu-Gi-Oh! Progression Playoff, and the fifth episode of Season 5, the Arc-V arc. It debuted on MBT Yu-Gi-Oh's YouTube channel on March 26, 2022. During the episode, it came to light that Gavin was once in a fantastic production of Fiddler on the Roof. Leah once again dominates for her another 2-0 and her fourth win in five episodes, while Gavin faces a setback, being the only 0-2 player and receiving a double ban. Most importantly, though, Leah mentioned me by name during the episode, meaning I am now canon in the Progression Playoff multiverse.

## Background

Clash of Rebellions was released in the TCG on August 6, 2015. It introduced the "Aroma", "Igknight", "Kozmo", "Kaiju", and "Performage" archetypes, as well as new support for the "Performapal", "Raidraptor", "Red-Eyes", "D/D", and "Gem-Knight" archetypes. Other notable cards include Infernoid Decatron, Archfiend Eccentrick, Retaliating "C", Ignister Prominence, the Blasting Dracoslayer, Brilliant Fusion, Wavering Eyes, Chicken Game, and Storming Mirror Force.

Leah suffered her first loss of the season last week, but still maintains a small lead. MBT and Gavin are within striking distance and hope to narrow the gap further this week. Danny looks to gain some momentum, while Brent is still searching for his first win of the season.
