Changes

Atticus has built up quite a reputation in the manga. In Duel Academy he and Zane Truesdale are referred to as the "Twin Gems" of the academy. It is also revealed that he was originally the number one pupil the semester before his final year and he remarks that being first is "too much work" He is a star duelist in the [[Wikipedia:The United States of America|United States]], where he is studying abroad at the American Duel Academy. In the English version [[Reggie MacKenzie]] refers to him as '''Rhodie''', and in the Japanese version, he goes by the moniker, '''"Fubu-king"''' ([[Wikipedia: Portmanteau|a portmanteau]] of his Japanese name, Fubuki, and king). He defeated [[David Rabb]] at some point in the past, possibly during his time at the American Duel Academy, thus prompting David to brutally defeat [[Alexis Rhodes]] in one turn during their Duel in the Academy Tournament finals. Atticus apparently developed an infatuation with Reggie MacKenzie while studying in America, and thus petitioned [[Chancellor Sheppard (manga)|Chancellor Sheppard]] to allow him to stay abroad longer. He returns earlier than he expected anyway - prior to Jaden's Tournament semi-final duel against Chazz, as Reggie had ended up going to [[Duel Academy]] herself without informing him. After having a conversation with [[Zane Truesdale (manga)|Zane Truesdale]], he then decides to go look for her but will still watch the duel on the television screens that are littered around the Academy's halls.
