The Yu-Gi-Oh! Championship Series, often abbreviated as YCS, is a series of large two-day tournaments that replaced the Shonen Jump Championship (SJC) Series in 2010. Unlike the SJCs, which exclusively took place in North America, YCSs are organized in all TCG regions, i.e. North America, Central America, South America, Europe and Oceania. In the case of Europe and Oceania, YCSs replaced the Pharaoh/Fortune Tour, which was the main tournament series in those areas pre-2010.
Outside of the WCQ season in summer, YCSs are the main premier events that take place in the TCG countries throughout the year.
Each YCS consists of the main tournament, as well as public events such as Win-A-Mat, ATTACK OF THE GIANT CARD!! and Time Wizard.
Among other prizes, the top 32 players win an invitation to that year's World Championship Qualifiers.
Currently, the record for most YCS wins of a single player is held by Chris LeBlanc, who has won six tournaments.
