{{Fair use rationale'''Andre''', known as '''Andore''' in the Japanese version, is [[Team Unicorn]]'s ace player. Similar to [[Yusei Fudo]], Andre is known for his genius [[Duel]]ing style rather than relying on a set strategy, as he analyzes his opponent's tactics and adjusts accordingly by taking advantage of whatever he has currently in his [[hand]]. | Description ==Design=====Voice and mannerisms===In the Japanese version, when [[Yusei Fudo|Yusei]] [[destroy]]s Andre's "[[Speed Spell - End Sentry Soldier of the Storm Stone (anime)|Speed Spell - End Legacy of the Storm]]", Andre mockingly replies "gracias", the Spanish word for "thank you".<ref name="ep100">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's|100|ref}}</ref> This suggests that Andre is either Spanish or from a Spanish-speaking country. ==Biography=====History===Before joining [[Jean]] and [[Team Unicorn]], he is seen Dueling against another [[Duelist]], who defeats him. After his defeat, Jean approaches him, taking note that Andre could have won the Duel. When Andre doesn't respond, Jean tells him that he is like himself: neither of them wants to watch the loser upset, so they lose the Duel on purpose. Jean then requests that Andre join his team, with Andre accepting. Jean suggests that if they Duel as a team, they will be motivated to win so that they do not disappoint their teammates.
