Biography[]

History[]

Striker is the third son of the infamous Soccer Family and is expected to play soccer like his older brothers, Dempsey and Donovan. However, despite his great skills, he had little trust in others. During a soccer game, Striker ignored his teammates and tried to win on his own. His brothers disapproved of this and Striker quit soccer. After that, he discovered Duel Monsters and began striving to become Duel Champion to overcome his brothers' shadows.

World Duel Carnival[]

Striker is seen with all of the participating Duelists as the World Duel Carnival is under way. To decide who his first opponent would be, he kicked a soccer ball and whoever it hit would decide who he would Duel. The ball hits Yuma Tsukumo and after introductions were out of the way, the two began to Duel.[1]
