Konami has announced that the first tournament in the 2012 North American Yu-Gi-Oh! Championship Series will be held in Atlanta, Georgia on February 18th and 19th. This will be the first official tournament since December.

The tournament will be held at the Georgia International Convention Center and is expected to include hundreds of competitors from the region. The tournament will run over two days, with preliminary rounds starting at 8 a.m. on Saturday, with a final round on Sunday afternoon. The winner of the tournament will be awarded an Ultra Rare Blood Mefist prize card, with Super Rare versions being awarded to second and third place.

Fans of the game will also be able to participate in “Public Events” related to the game. These events include a 3-on-3 team game, “Attack of the Giant Card,” draft tournaments, Dawn of the Xyz Starter Tournament, and others. A new sealed deck format tournament will also be run, featuring the recently released Dragons Collide Structure Decks.

Younger players can join in the “Dragon Duel,” limited to individuals born in 1999 or later. The top four finishers will receive a special Dragon Duel Champion’s Medal, game mat, card binder, and an invitation to the 2012 Dragon Duel World Championship Qualifier
