Biography[]
Chumley was forced to retake his freshman year after he failed his first time around. His best friends, Jaden Yuki and Syrus Truesdale, come to Duel Academy, and encourage Chumley to gain more confidence in himself.
Throughout the series, Chumley participates in only two Duels: the first against his father, Mr. Huffington, and the second against Dr. Crowler. His father believed that his son's efforts at Duel Academy were wasted and that he would be better off leaving. To put an end to the conflict, Chumley struggled valiantly against his father's special tactics, but ultimately lost. Despite this, he allowed his son to continue his studies, as he saw that Chumley had actually learned something, and that his friends would always support him.
After being a sidekick for most of season 1 Maximillion Pegasus offers Chumley a job at Industrial Illusions as a card designer nearing the end of the first year after he wins a card-design contest by creating "Ayers Rock Sunrise". In order to determine whether or not he will be permitted to leave the school, Crowler Duels with him in one final test. Although Chumley manages to hold his own, even getting the chance to play the first card of his own creation, "Ayers Rock Sunrise", he is again defeated. Crowler, however, lets him move on regardless, impressed by how far in his studies he has come.
Deck[]
Chumley plays an "Australian" deck, featuring Monsters such as "Des Koala", "Des Kangaroo" and "Eucalyptus Mole" alongside his signature card, "Big Koala". Another noticable card in his deck is the Field Spell "Ayers Rock Sunrise" of his own design, while his strongest monster is "Master of Oz", the Fusion of "Big Koala" and "Des Kangaroo"; both "Master of Oz" and "Des Kangaroo" were given to him by his friends Jaden and Syrus respectively.
