Shun's first match is also an unrelated party, an older teen who seems friendly to the younger players but also quite fresh to the game himself. As Shun sets up, he watches the situation with the others - the turnout for the tournament is decent, so for the first round, it seems like most of the potential pair-offs have missed each other.

The kids are seeming confident going up against older players, though, and for the moment the teens are also against older players, so Shun largely just keeps an eye on things during the first round. His opponent tries, but they're enough of a newcomer that it doesn't take him more than a quarter of the designated round time to handle them.

He does, at least, shake their hand for a good game and give them some advice on their deck, which seems to be welcomed considering their lack of experience. As far as Shun's concerned, the last thing they need is more people put off from the shop because of unpleasant players.
