NARUTO Mythos TCG Orlando Regional: Results and Decklists

Cicaboom's website has not published a result for either of NARUTO Mythos TCG's 2026 Regional Championships. Its news feed, checked on 2 October 2026, has nothing after a 21 September distribution post, and our Store Championships piece already found the same silence around the Paris Regional and the store season.

The Orlando result is public anyway. Cicaboom's own Orlando page sent players to TopDeck.gg to register, and TopDeck's standings page for the event shows the final standings, every match result, and the decklist each player submitted. Everything below is read from that page, and every card name, cost and Power figure is checked against Cicaboom's official card gallery. Where a number is our own count rather than something TopDeck or Cicaboom prints, the post says so.

The short version: the champion finished the Swiss 3-3, the only 3-3 record in the Top 16, and drew the only player who went 6-0 in the first round of the cut. The two of them had registered the same 30 cards.

The event in numbers

Cicaboom's page promised "up to nine" Swiss rounds, with the count set by attendance. Six is what the Tournament Rules table prescribes for 33 to 64 players, and it is what ran. Forty players played all six rounds, eight have a round-one loss and no later match, and one entry has no recorded match. Those three counts are ours, from the match data on TopDeck's page.

The prizes are covered elsewhere: the Regional prize ladder, card by card, is in our Shinobi Shiren set guide. One small mismatch is worth knowing. Cicaboom's Orlando page lists "6 Set 2 boosters" in every player's participation kit, while TopDeck's event page, run by host Pro-Play Games, lists "6 Set 1 Booster Packs". As of 2 October, the two pages still disagree.

The bracket: a 3-3 record won it

TopDeck's final standings put Noel Pagan first, on 9 match points. That is three wins and three losses in the Swiss. Fifteen players finished 4-2 or better, which left one Top 16 seat for the thirteen players on 3-3. The Tournament Rules say ties on wins are broken by the pairing software's own tiebreakers. TopDeck lists Pagan's opponent win percentage at 72.17%, the highest of the thirteen; the best of the other twelve, in 17th place, was 61.11%.

Pagan's first Top 16 opponent was Marc Anthony Torres, the only player to finish the Swiss 6-0. Both had registered the same 30 Character cards. The only difference between their two lists is one Mission: Torres ran Rescue a friend where Pagan ran Protect the Leader.

The other seven Top 16 first-round losers had Swiss records of 5-1 (one player) and 4-2 (six). The standings record each Top Cut match as a single win, so game scores inside the Best-of-3 matches are not published.

The Top 8 and what each deck leaned on

TopDeck does not label decks by archetype, and we are not going to invent names for them. Instead, the faction split below is our count of each list's Character cards by the faction the official gallery gives them.

Marsl's and Doxtader's lists are one near-copy pair inside the Top 8; Pagan's and Torres's, which met in the Top 16, are another. Matthew Deer's list differs from that of Jacob Chaimowitz, the 5-1 player Deer beat in the Top 16, by a single card: Deer runs one Sakura Haruno (Medical Ninja) where Chaimowitz runs a second Yashamaru. Shaun Speakman's (Sand 11) and Brandon Mercado's (Sound 20) are the two Top 8 lists in which Leaf Village is not the largest faction.

The champion's 30 cards

Here is Noel Pagan's list as submitted, with names, costs and Power read off the official gallery:

Missions: Chunin Exam, Protect the Leader and Chakra Training.

By cost, that is 2 cards at 0, 3 at 1, 4 at 2, 5 at 3, 9 at 4, 5 at 5 and 2 at 7, our count. Nineteen different cards, eleven of them as a pair. The most expensive, Sasuke Uchiha (Heaven Curse Mark) at cost 7, is a Secret, numbered past 130, and so is Sakura Haruno (The Leaf Medical Corps).

Several of these cards care about each other on their printed text. TonTon gets +1 Power with a friendly Tsunade in its Mission, and the list runs three Tsunade. Yashamaru gets +2 Power with a friendly Gaara in its Mission, and the list runs four Gaara. Tsunade, Master Medical Ninja gains 2 Chakra whenever a friendly character is defeated, and Sasuke, Heaven Curse Mark gains 1 Chakra whenever any character is defeated.

The cards the Top 16 agreed on

Across all 16 Top 16 lists, 53 different cards appear. Sixteen of them are in at least half the lists. The counts are ours, from the submitted decklists; "copies" is out of a possible 32, two per list.

Every Top 8 list ran TonTon and Shino Aburame (Insect Clones). Each of the three 15-of-16 cards was missing from a different list: TonTon from Adeel Qadir's, Tsunade from David Melendez's, and Insect Clones from James H's, which ran the other Shino, Parasitic Insects.

What the staples actually do

The printed text, from the official gallery:

• TonTon costs 0 and has 0 Power. "If there's a friendly Tsunade or Shizune in this mission, this character has +1 Power."
• Tsunade, Master Medical Ninja: "When any friendly character is defeated, gain 2 Chakra."
• Shino Aburame, Insect Clones: on AMBUSH, "Play this character paying 4 less if there's an enemy Jutsu character in this mission." His UPGRADE moves him. AMBUSH only triggers when a card is revealed from hidden, as our how-to-play guide explains.
• Shikamaru Nara, Genin of Team 10 costs 1, has 0 Power, and draws a card if you hold the Edge.
• Gaara, Sand Coffin: "Defeat up to 1 enemy character with Power 1 or less in every mission."
• Jirobo, Slamming Palm gains Power tokens equal to the number of characters in its Mission, and on UPGRADE defeats an enemy character with Power 1 or less there.

Read those lines together and one number keeps coming back: Power 1 or less. Sand Coffin, Slamming Palm's UPGRADE and Kidomaru's Spiral Spider Web (in 6 of the 16 lists) all defeat enemy characters at that size. Two of the cheapest staples sit inside that window on their own printed stats, TonTon at 0, or 1 next to Tsunade, and Shikamaru at 0. So does any hidden character: Cicaboom's FAQ defines one as "a normal Character with cost 0 and Power 0". Power tokens would lift a card out of the window, and the standings cannot tell you how any individual game went. What they do show is how many of these cards made the cut.

The Missions they brought

Each player registers three Missions with different names. Here is how the 48 Mission slots in the Top 16 split, with each Mission's printed points and effect from the gallery:

Find the traitor and Assassination, the other two Set 1 Missions, were in none of the 16 lists. Protect the Leader was in exactly one of them: the champion's.

Where a Mission lands matters as much as which one you bring. Two of your three are drawn at random, and the first one revealed can be scored four times while the last is scored once, which our how-to-play guide works through.

No Set 2 cards in the Top 16

Every card in all 16 Top 16 lists is from Set 1, Konoha Shidō, numbered out of 130. None of the Set 2 cards in our Shinobi Shiren guide, including the Attachments, appears in them.

That fits Cicaboom's own North American schedule. Its America Release FAQ, read on 2 October, gives the US, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean an official Set 1 2nd edition pre-release on 29 August 2026 and a Set 2 pre-release in "late September". It says the USA, Canada and the other newly added territories get Set 2 "a few weeks later", with release dates that "will be announced soon". The Tournament Rules make a set's cards legal "from the day of the set's official release date in their continent". The same FAQ adds that Set 1 1st edition was only ever sold in Europe and the UK, and that 2nd edition reaches the US through approved Organized Play stores only.

The only Regional listed on Cicaboom's events site on 2 October is next, and its format is different. The NARUTO Germany Regional runs 27 to 29 November 2026 at the Messe und Congress Centrum Halle Münsterland in Münster. Its deck construction rule is "Standard - every Set 1 and Set 2 cards allowed", its Swiss rounds are Best-of-1 on a 13-minute-per-player chess clock, and its Top 16 plays Best-of-3 at 15 minutes per player. The Main Event ticket is €40. The page footer reads "Powered by Cicaboom - Organised by Breakflip", the company Cicaboom named as its distribution facilitator in September (see our Breakflip and Zvezdar piece). Like Orlando, its champion's prize is an exclusive Gold Card in English.

What the standings do not tell you

• Game scores. Top Cut matches were Best-of-3 by Cicaboom's page, but TopDeck records each one only as a win.
• Whether the lists are exact. The decklists are text each player typed in. Two Top 16 lists run more than 30 cards, at 31 and 32, which the Tournament Rules allow, since 30 is a minimum. We counted the lists as submitted.
• Archetypes. Nothing on the page names a deck. The faction splits above are our count, not a label anyone published.
• The prize handover. Cicaboom's website has not confirmed the Gold Card going to the champion or carried any Orlando coverage.
• Paris. The first Regional, in Montreuil on 11 to 13 September, still has no results published anywhere we could find. Cicaboom's Paris page links no standings, and its news feed carries no results post as of 2 October.

If Cicaboom posts an official Orlando or Paris result, it goes into this post rather than a new one.

Standings, match results and decklists are read from TopDeck.gg's standings page for "NARUTO Mythos TCG Regional @ Pro-Play Summit: Orlando" and its event page. Card names, costs, Power, rarities, factions and text come from the official NARUTO Mythos TCG Card Gallery. Event details come from Cicaboom's Orlando Regional page, the Tournament Rules (in effect from 7 September 2026), the official FAQ, the America Release FAQ, the Germany Regional page on events.narutotcgmythos.com, and the official news feed. All were checked on 2 October 2026.
