Undefeated Pure Branded Deck Profile December 2026 (YCS Orlando) — Transcript

Full transcript

1. 0:00But I think people are crazy when they
2. 0:01cut this because Gold Stark's now like
3. 0:02your best starter. Now, rumors of this
4. 0:05deck's demise have been greatly
5. 0:06overexaggerated by people like me and
6. 0:08other people. So, I'm going to read some
7. 0:10chats and then we can talk about my
8. 0:12branded deck list that I'm currently on
9. 0:14because I'm I'm a really big fan of how
10. 0:16this about how this version plays.
11. 0:22Do you think the Cashira engine only
12. 0:24would be optimal?
13. 0:26I mean, I think it's good. I just I I
14. 0:28think pure branded's just fine. I think
15. 0:30a lot of people thought pure branded
16. 0:31wasn't consistent enough. I don't think
17. 0:33we need the cash stuff necessarily.
18. 0:36Why are we not playing small world
19. 0:38instead of all the bricks? Well, if you
20. 0:40know anything about playing Branded,
21. 0:42your bricks are what make your deck so
22. 0:43good. [laughter]
23. 0:45Like what bricks are you talking about?
24. 0:47The the mandatory bricks. I like GSS,
25. 0:50but I don't think you need GSS.
26. 0:53I mean, branded in white is like I think
27. 0:55better than branded retribution in the
28. 0:57main deck,
29. 1:00but everything else is pretty mandatory.
30. 1:02Like Quen, Kit, Dogmatica, Ecclesia,
31. 1:06those are all Albaz, Mercurier. I mean,
32. 1:08Mercurier is not mandatory, but I think
33. 1:10people are crazy when they cut this
34. 1:11because Gold Stark's now like your best
35. 1:13starter. It's also really good in a
36. 1:15grind game. Is Ido Diabell's not on the
37. 1:17side anymore? Yeah, it just doesn't
38. 1:19because my theory is on that is if you
39. 1:21go full combo, you win the game anyway.
40. 1:23And the only time you're reaching DLS or
41. 1:26IDO is when you go full combo. All
42. 1:29right, so this is my like 9 in1, 10 in1
43. 1:33branded deck list. I've been toying with
44. 1:35on Omega. Uh this is a list I'm very
45. 1:39happy with and I would not doubt if this
46. 1:41is the list I take to Orlando. I don't
47. 1:43know if tunes are legal the weekend of
48. 1:45Orlando. I'm pretty sure they are. Um,
49. 1:49so this might change a little bit for
50. 1:50Tunes. I mean, personally speaking, I
51. 1:53don't think Tunes is going to affect the
52. 1:54meta that much with with the limits that
53. 1:56in bands the deck already has. How
54. 1:59However, uh, this Branded has really
55. 2:02surprised me. We've seen a second place
56. 2:04and we we'll check out the regional deck
57. 2:06list after this, by the way. Um, I think
58. 2:08Branded is really well positioned right
59. 2:10now because people aren't expecting it.
60. 2:12And then also the ban list made all the
61. 2:14ceilings go down. Got rid of most of the
62. 2:16FTKs and floodgates. So this deck can
63. 2:18just like use super poly in a dream like
64. 2:20you guys just saw in some gameplay. You
65. 2:22also check out videos on my YouTube of
66. 2:24these game plays or my streams. And then
67. 2:26you'll be able to see where like Branded
68. 2:29really does have the ability to break a
69. 2:31lot of boards this format. You aren't
70. 2:33breaking a full ARS Magna board and you
71. 2:36are breaking a full angel board. I mean,
72. 2:38you might probably not without
73. 2:40non-engine, but if you see a piece of
74. 2:43non-enine, you can halfboard most decks.
75. 2:46Uh, and I think that's where this deck
76. 2:48really because it's still the best Super
77. 2:49Poly deck. I like I don't think I'd be
78. 2:51running this deck without if I wasn't
79. 2:53running Super Poly just because Super
80. 2:55Poly is so good into the ARS decks. Um,
81. 2:58what and it's really good to like
82. 2:59Destiny Hero. A lot of the rogue decks
83. 3:01like it's great to striker. It's it's
84. 3:04just a really good just rogue just
85. 3:06slammer. Um,
86. 3:09and you can you have room for hand
87. 3:11traps. Like we saw the second place list
88. 3:13run the same hand trap lineup that I've
89. 3:15been on. I wonder if you saw the video
90. 3:17the streams or anything like that
91. 3:18because we've been running three fo ash,
92. 3:20three ogre, one droll. I think that's
93. 3:22like the best. I mean, to be fair
94. 3:24though, if anyone like has been playing
95. 3:25this format, you just know those are the
96. 3:27best hand traps this format in the main
97. 3:29deck because they're good into ARS and
98. 3:31angelic.
99. 3:33Like Ogre isn't good to Striker, but
100. 3:35like Striker isn't like the
101. 3:37it isn't the overall end all be all,
102. 3:41right? So,
103. 3:43I think Brand is just fine. You know,
104. 3:45rumors of this deck's demise have been
105. 3:48greatly overexaggerated by people like
106. 3:49me and other people. I do apologize for
107. 3:51that. I just thought it was it was dead.
108. 3:54You know, my bad. Um, so this is going
109. 3:58to be my deck list. We're going to go
110. 4:00over it card by card as like a little
111. 4:02bit of a deck profile. I also do
112. 4:06I I want to show off the Shining Flare
113. 4:08Wingman. This is something I'm
114. 4:10interested in because it's it's a very
115. 4:12good grind game piece. It just hasn't
116. 4:14come up for me, but in theory, this
117. 4:15gives your deck unlimited grind game, so
118. 4:17I do kind of like this. It's also a good
119. 4:19super poly target. We're going to talk
120. 4:20about some goo and stuff like that. Uh
121. 4:22Lulu could be the other thing over
122. 4:24Shining Flare Wingman. I've been back
123. 4:26and forth on Lulu. Like Lulu's great,
124. 4:28but overall it feels like
125. 4:31not exactly mandatory.
126. 4:34All right, so for the main deck, I'm on
127. 4:3541. You could very well get to 40. Um,
128. 4:39that's really up to you. Like, I mean,
129. 4:41I've cut Golden Sword Soul, so we could
130. 4:43just put a clean 40 over the Sword Soul.
131. 4:45I don't think Golden Sword Soul is that
132. 4:46needed. Uh, so we have three Aluber, one
133. 4:49Fallen of Albaz, two Fall of the Whites.
134. 4:51Very standard. I still think Aluber is
135. 4:53your best one card starter. and Fall in
136. 4:56the White still at uh three copies. So,
137. 4:58we're still going to be running two and
138. 4:59one of OG Albaz. And until they pry this
139. 5:03card from my cold dead hands on the ban
140. 5:05list, um I think Branded is going to be
141. 5:07still pretty good. Then, one spriggin's
142. 5:10kit, one Tribade Sprigins Kit, two
143. 5:12Cartisia, one Elesia Dogmatica. This
144. 5:15card's so important now. I've talked
145. 5:16about this, but this card's insanely
146. 5:18important now since it's searchable off
147. 5:19of three champions and this is how you
148. 5:21get to end on FAB a lot of the time.
149. 5:22But, I do like the Sprigins kit, too.
150. 5:24I've seen a lot of people not run spring
151. 5:26kit. I And that's why I like the golden
152. 5:28sword soul though because if you have
153. 5:31golden sword soul with kit, like you
154. 5:32have an insane synchro combo. Like you
155. 5:36get to end on your old board essentially
156. 5:37most of the time. So this is something
157. 5:39that you can consider for that reason. I
158. 5:41don't think the difference between 40
159. 5:43and 41 is that different. And also it
160. 5:44makes you see less bricks. Uh one QM and
161. 5:48then two Elesia. One Koktorium because
162. 5:50it's your best branded fusion line. I've
163. 5:53thought about cutting branded fusion,
164. 5:54but overall I think there's too many
165. 5:56hands where you just draw a luber with
166. 5:57no high spirits bridge. So, it's still
167. 6:00good in that regard. It's also good for
168. 6:01like followup if you run lenatus.
169. 6:04It's not bad top deck. And also, if you
170. 6:06run kit, it's like a decent option to
171. 6:08get to if you like are in the grind
172. 6:10game. Although kit's usually there to
173. 6:12recur your fall in the virtuouses. We
174. 6:14are not running retribution in the main
175. 6:15deck. I don't think this card's useful
176. 6:17in the main deck uh because it's
177. 6:18unarchable, right? Unless you run kit.
178. 6:20Like I saw the second place Richmond
179. 6:21list run retribution in the main deck
180. 6:24with no kit. Obviously they're shrouded
181. 6:27uh and that's the way he ran, but I
182. 6:29don't think shrouded's that necessary
183. 6:31especially without Albon uh to set the
184. 6:33rat. So I'm citing that for going first.
185. 6:36Um and kit is there because you can
186. 6:39summon it every turn off of a Kesia in a
187. 6:41grind game to keep recurring your fallen
188. 6:43in the virtuouses. So this card's like
189. 6:45very if you don't and I think it's
190. 6:47better than retribution in that sense
191. 6:49because it's a starter unlike
192. 6:50retribution and it it's you can do this
193. 6:54every turn. You you just can't you can't
194. 6:56use retribution graveyard effect every
195. 6:57turn unless you keep dogma and get back.
196. 6:59So then you have qu two elesia one coke
197. 7:02uh one mercur. I've seen some lists like
198. 7:04the list we're going to go over in a
199. 7:05little bit has cut this. I'm not a big
200. 7:08fan of that um because it makes your
201. 7:10gold sark really good. So I think that's
202. 7:13pretty important as well. Uh then three
203. 7:18um Mulcharmmy Fuos of course. I think
204. 7:20Mulcharmmy Fuos
205. 7:22is uh best card in the game right now.
206. 7:25And then three Ash Blossom, three ogre,
207. 7:27and then one droll. Like we said, these
208. 7:29are just like the best hand traps in the
209. 7:30game into Angeli and Aeros deck. So you
210. 7:33have to run them. Uh one branded fusion,
211. 7:36one branded white. I I was thinking
212. 7:37about running more hand traps. Like I
213. 7:39was on Veiler at one point in the
214. 7:40earlier in the format. I was on Magnamut
215. 7:42was on some nib and I'm I'm just
216. 7:44deciding to side the nib. I think that's
217. 7:46pretty correct. Um
218. 7:49and so I because Veiler is just terrible
219. 7:53into Angel, but it's like better to ARS
220. 7:55decks and then Nib is like the same
221. 7:58story. So I'd rather decide it. And the
222. 8:00Veilers not having is fine. Uh, one
223. 8:02brand diffusion, one branded white, one
224. 8:04gold sark, three nadir, and then one
225. 8:06branded high spirits, one branded
226. 8:08opening, three super poly, uh, and then
227. 8:11three fallen in the virtuous.
228. 8:14So, and this deck's basically like how
229. 8:17to land fallen in the virtuous on a
230. 8:18mirror jade every single turn. And super
231. 8:20poly is one of the reasons to run this
232. 8:22deck because you it really cracks an ars
233. 8:25board. It can crack like destiny hero
234. 8:27boards really easily. you just make aon
235. 8:29with their board and then win the game
236. 8:31on the spot since you can attack over
237. 8:33the plasma. I think super poly is just
238. 8:35really well positioned because of all
239. 8:36the media stacks especially because if
240. 8:38you see a single hand trap or you know
241. 8:40preferably a roll or foolos then you're
242. 8:42probably winning the game. I'm not a big
243. 8:43fan of Peruia right now because the ARS
244. 8:45cards can summon themselves from the
245. 8:46banishment they can just use the power
246. 8:48patron stuff to play around the uh
247. 8:51Peruia. Uh although sometimes I wish I
248. 8:53was still on Peruia.
249. 8:55Uh, I've thought about siding meows,
250. 8:58too. I I'm still not sure about that
251. 9:00because that's only for the ARS deck, so
252. 9:02it's really targeted. And then for the
253. 9:04extra one, AON, Hyper Invoked Aon, this
254. 9:06card's so insane right now in this deck.
255. 9:08You use it to pop the Vidolium uh the
256. 9:11power patron uh scales. This is so good
257. 9:13against those. Also very good into
258. 9:16angelic to get rid of their like bastion
259. 9:19or get rid of the the other floodgate
260. 9:21synchros that get slotted in the speller
261. 9:23trap card zone. Um, you can also spin
262. 9:26this back with things like shankflower,
263. 9:28wingman, and dogmas. You can use it
264. 9:29multiple times in a grind game. This is
265. 9:31how you win the grind games this format.
266. 9:32Like you just saw that striker gameplay.
267. 9:34You just banish their three rays with
268. 9:35AON through a grind game and you win the
269. 9:37game eventually.
270. 9:39And then one mirror jade, just the best
271. 9:41card in the game. I've wanted to run two
272. 9:43of these guys, but overall because of
273. 9:45three fallen in the virtues, you really
274. 9:47don't have to run two of these. You
275. 9:48always get back to it and you can just
276. 9:50dogma it back. Worst case scenario.
277. 9:52Speaking of which, two dogma. This is
278. 9:54something the second place list also
279. 9:55mentioned that they kind of thought he
280. 9:57he might run three Dogma. I'm completely
281. 9:58with him there. I might run the third
282. 10:00Dogma over Shining Flare Wingman because
283. 10:02my issue with Shining Flare Wingman is
284. 10:04like it's not a Albaz target. So Mirror
285. 10:08Jade runs out of targets eventually.
286. 10:11So I'm thinking maybe double or triple
287. 10:13Dogma to be honest. Like let's just go
288. 10:15triple Dogma right now. I I think triple
289. 10:17Dogma is actually like something I want
290. 10:19to do. Um because it gives you more
291. 10:22mirror jade sends and it always makes
292. 10:23sure that this card's in rotation. Uh
293. 10:26it's just like the core of the of the
294. 10:28deck, right, between falling the
295. 10:29virtuous mirror jade and this card and
296. 10:31falling the white dragon. So running
297. 10:33three instead of like the two Albon I
298. 10:35think is completely fair. Uh also I
299. 10:38didn't mention Brandon White or did I? I
300. 10:40mean, I love Brandon in white because it
301. 10:41gives me an option to break the boards
302. 10:44going second in a grind game with
303. 10:46sprien's kit. It's searchable and you
304. 10:48can just use your albaz and graveyard
305. 10:50you get from your synchro line plus the
306. 10:52grandnol or whatever else you s a high
307. 10:54spirit. So, it's an easy into mirror
308. 10:56jade. It's a one for one for mirror
309. 10:58jade. It trades one card for one mirror
310. 11:00jade. It's very card economy efficient.
311. 11:05Uh it's just not a starter, but I'd
312. 11:06prefer this over branded retribution
313. 11:08because retribution does not break the
314. 11:09board. Uh and Brandon White can extend
315. 11:11you as well, especially when you're on
316. 11:13Mccouer and stuff like that can be
317. 11:14really like explosive in a grind game to
318. 11:16get you back into it. Uh and then also
319. 11:19just giving you an option to make Jade
320. 11:21going second uh easily is really good
321. 11:23because without Albon, it's really hard
322. 11:25to make Jade unless you stick in Albaz.
323. 11:27So this allows you to make mirror jade
324. 11:29without super poly or stuff like that
325. 11:31going second. I I really think this
326. 11:33card's super underrated. You could run
327. 11:34Brandon in red, but Brandon red makes
328. 11:36you go neg one, which I don't like. It
329. 11:38also banishes your resource. Like, this
330. 11:40can put the grand on your field into the
331. 11:42graveyard. If you do choose to go neg
332. 11:44one, but at least that neg one isn't
333. 11:46banishing a potential interruption
334. 11:47because Quitus is quite good this format
335. 11:50against like all the decks. This this
336. 11:52card's actually really really good uh to
337. 11:54protect you from dying. And then one
338. 11:57Mixusia absolutely mandatory. This is
339. 11:59how you can make Jade through on a lot
340. 12:00of your unboards. also how you make
341. 12:02Mixusia. Like these two cards are what
342. 12:04you're basically interrupting your
343. 12:05opponent with besides like Mercur and
344. 12:08like your Albaz fuse off and then one
345. 12:11Quertus you need it for the super poly
346. 12:13target but also it's very good into
347. 12:14grind games. I love Lulu but overall
348. 12:17just like I need something to dodge
349. 12:19Imperm on a looper going second and
350. 12:21stuff like that and overall its grind
351. 12:24game ability to keep you alive is really
352. 12:27uh needed in my opinion. So yes, I do
353. 12:29think Querus is needed. I don't think
354. 12:31anyone serious is is cutting this card
355. 12:33right now in their branded decks or at
356. 12:36least who's good at branded. [laughter]
357. 12:38Um like I tried it for a second and that
358. 12:40was really in the first week but overall
359. 12:42I think this card's still just needed.
360. 12:44Um two grandall I think this is also
361. 12:47pretty needed. Um it comes up a lot in
362. 12:49the grind games and there are a lot of
363. 12:50grind games this format because of your
364. 12:52ability. Um like you want to get into
365. 12:54those grind games because you win the
366. 12:56grind game all the time because of
367. 12:57Elesia. Yes, Albon's not there, but like
368. 12:59if you stick Elesia or some like
369. 13:01graveyard stuff like Tankclad and Jade,
370. 13:03like you're already grinding really well
371. 13:04and this card just helps you there. Uh,
372. 13:07so I think two is good. And plus, if you
373. 13:08have high spirits and need to use a
374. 13:10spellcaster, right? Or like sometimes
375. 13:12you have to like banish your or whatever
376. 13:15and you have a second one in rotation.
377. 13:16And I am running Gura as well. I think
378. 13:18Gura is like a really good replacement
379. 13:20for Albon to be able to plus off a
380. 13:22Grandal. Uh, it can draw you into super
381. 13:24poly or a hand trap. So, and a lot of
382. 13:26the time as long as you have Dogma or if
383. 13:28you just have Titan Clad in the
384. 13:29graveyard, you're usually getting to
385. 13:30your full end board. Um, so being able
386. 13:33to send Grur instead of like a redundant
387. 13:34Dogma or something is pretty good. And
388. 13:37then one Mixu. I already read that. Uh,
389. 13:39one Lubellon. I thought about running
390. 13:41two. I still think one is just fine. It
391. 13:43really just never comes up more than
392. 13:44two. And then or more than one. And then
393. 13:46one Renro
394. 13:48uh requirement. Then one Titan uh to get
395. 13:51the Quam in the graveyard. I thought
396. 13:52about running multiples, but I'm running
397. 13:54like retribution on the side plus three
398. 13:55dogma or two or three, you know,
399. 13:57whatever. Two dogma plus a shining flare
400. 13:59wingman. So, you can always just recur
401. 14:01this if you need it. And then one Elesia
402. 14:04and one three champions absolutely
403. 14:06mandow. Do you need two grand? Is it two
404. 14:09titan bear for grind game? No, I think
405. 14:11two grandall is better. Um because
406. 14:14you're able to make off of Cartisia to
407. 14:15loop it with the QM and stuff like that.
408. 14:18also like the high spirits and you know
409. 14:20if you run good sends like a Lulu or
410. 14:22Gura and you can run Lulu to make your
411. 14:24Nadier servant better but overall I
412. 14:26think it's like not that needed feel
413. 14:28like why would you play croc merc golden
414. 14:31sword soul and gold sark you never you
415. 14:33can literally I mean gold sark's also a
416. 14:35neg one whereas gold sark is or sorry
417. 14:37small world is a neg one whereas gold
418. 14:38sark is not also uh small world is
419. 14:41dependent you need to have a monster in
420. 14:42hand gold sark you can just use and win
421. 14:45the game uh why Brandon White and not
422. 14:47rudden plus spry because um I don't
423. 14:50think I need spry frankly like spryine
424. 14:52just wasn't coming up enough for me and
425. 14:54then I mean you can you really can like
426. 14:57you could do the spry over the third
427. 14:59dogma and then red over white I just
428. 15:01think red or branded white's like way
429. 15:03better in a grind game
430. 15:05so that's why I'm testing there but I
431. 15:07might be on like red eventually maybe
432. 15:09back to the spine you definitely could
433. 15:12do that though does Brandon have any out
434. 15:15to Lunalite leer dancer yeah you uh use
435. 15:18I mean this build does not but that's
436. 15:20why you run great gallon going second
437. 15:22then yeah I'm not afraid of lunalay I
438. 15:25think lunlay is a pretty poor choice
439. 15:26into the meta um you could run shrouded
440. 15:30maybe I'll regret not running shrouded
441. 15:32like you really could just go 41 if
442. 15:34you're afraid of it and I have tested
443. 15:37variants like this so
444. 15:39that is up to you and and and even then
445. 15:42you could go branded in red over the
446. 15:44white and then once run brind and like
447. 15:47this is probably a little bit more like
448. 15:49synergistic. So then you have the retin
449. 15:51the side to side in for albon but then
450. 15:53you can send like og albaz or wallbaz or
451. 15:55whatever and then like use red to bring
452. 15:57it back or whatever. Um so so there's
453. 16:00like different like little packages you
454. 16:02can run with this build. Uh two nib I
455. 16:05don't like three because you don't want
456. 16:06to draw a double nib ever in this deck
457. 16:09but is very important against ars. So
458. 16:11maybe you could go three uh three gallon
459. 16:14bandit. Uh you're always going through
460. 16:16the synchro line now. So this you really
461. 16:18don't need your normal summon in this
462. 16:19deck unless you begin a luber and then
463. 16:22three mistaken arrest. Uh three evenly,
464. 16:24three typhoon for the Okay, so evenly is
465. 16:26the best side deck card into angel. Like
466. 16:29let me show you guys a screenshot of a
467. 16:31game I played against Angel earlier
468. 16:32today.
469. 16:35Um this is why you run evenly over
470. 16:37[ __ ] uh spatial. Uh, I don't know why
471. 16:40everyone is high on Hast Hace Trinade.
472. 16:44Like, look at this. So, Evenly and Hace
473. 16:47Trunade are the exact same interaction
474. 16:50point as each other into Angel. They
475. 16:52both can get negated, but they both also
476. 16:55can help break the board. Evenly takes
477. 16:57out more cards than Hastace Trunade
478. 16:59does. Why the [ __ ] would you not run
479. 17:01evenly over it? Like, this is like your
480. 17:04average situation with evenly against
481. 17:06Angel.
482. 17:08It's a one for seven
483. 17:11or one for six and then you can just out
484. 17:14grind them like like you don't need your
485. 17:15battle phase against Angel. You can just
486. 17:17out grind them. So this is why you run
487. 17:18evenly instead of haste space trunade by
488. 17:20the way. Like don't don't spend your
489. 17:22your $30 on them. Like just go just use
490. 17:25evenly. Um and mistaken arrest obviously
491. 17:28for your going first sides with fua.
492. 17:30This card's just FTK going first. Uh
493. 17:32we're like the best mistaken arrest deck
494. 17:34in the game. Uh, so this card is so
495. 17:37insane. It wins me so many games. Like
496. 17:39people always say that. I mean, no,
497. 17:41Konami actually loses me games. Uh,
498. 17:43don't ban it because it's like a great
499. 17:46it's it's amazing. It's just like the
500. 17:47best unsearchable flood gate in the
501. 17:49world. And then, um, evenly can also
502. 17:52clean up ARS boards, too. So, if you
503. 17:55halfboard them, uh, Typhoon is there for
504. 17:58Angel. This card's been like the weakest
505. 18:00card in my side. I could see myself
506. 18:02running something else. Like I saw like
507. 18:04the other guy was running pot sloths. I
508. 18:06don't like pot sloth this format. I mean
509. 18:08I do in practice it's been pretty good
510. 18:10but in theory it's like what the [ __ ]
511. 18:13are you doing against a medius deck with
512. 18:14a pot of sloth negate? Oh okay. So and
513. 18:18even if not like I'm probably hand trap
514. 18:21them. So I'm just like drawing four
515. 18:22cards or like just remaking my fourc
516. 18:24card hand. I just ploth to me is not
517. 18:27that necessary. I could be wrong, but
518. 18:30just like with media stacks always like
519. 18:31setting up 50 negates like it's like a
520. 18:34card you either want to see paired and
521. 18:36like you have a bunch of other good
522. 18:37cards to pair like evenly great gallon
523. 18:39nib and stuff like that. And then the
524. 18:41one retribution like I said I just like
525. 18:43this for going first. I think like
526. 18:45branded red branded blade is just like a
527. 18:46better situation.
528. 18:49Uh so yeah like I I've showed you guys a
529. 18:51few different like packages you can run.
530. 18:54I kind of like the idea of Brandon Red
531. 18:55with Shrouded and then like I I also
532. 18:58don't like running Branded with no
533. 18:59Lunaite Leger Dancer out because there's
534. 19:01always going to be some dude like
535. 19:03running a leer dancer deck.
536. 19:06So like having that ability to like go
537. 19:09branded fusion send shrouded
538. 19:11um with Lubellon and then fuse back
539. 19:13shrouded Lubellon to make a Titan clad
540. 19:15that can attack over leer dancer is
541. 19:17pretty important especially since you're
542. 19:18on hand trap. So, you can probably stop
543. 19:20them from ending on two leg if you see
544. 19:21either Ash or Ghost Ogre or Droll.
545. 19:25Uh, yeah. No, but my favorite part of
546. 19:27this deck right now is just like the
547. 19:28grind. Like, I think you just get into
548. 19:30grind games with people, break their
549. 19:31board with Super Poly and win the game.
550. 19:33Uh, pairing hand traps is really nice.
551. 19:34I'd like to find an easy way to get down
552. 19:36to 40 though. Uh, you could just cut
553. 19:39shrouded, like maybe even just side
554. 19:41shrouded and do something like that.
555. 19:44Uh, that's going to be up to you though.
556. 19:47And I want to keep retribution for sure
557. 19:49like because like you guys saw in that
558. 19:51one game play like it's a great discard
559. 19:53still but going second I think I'd still
560. 19:55rather have red since red can be an
561. 19:57extender or like branded and white.
562. 20:00Um
563. 20:02so that's really up to you guys. Um I
564. 20:05would like to run more hand traps. Like
565. 20:06maybe the play is to like put double
566. 20:08veiler over like one typhoon, one
567. 20:10gallant or like put branded retribution
568. 20:13in the main and then do that. So there's
569. 20:16like going to be some changes maybe
570. 20:17especially with tunes like you want to
571. 20:19hand trap tunes. So uh like Veiler I
572. 20:23think probably comes back into my deck
573. 20:24with tunes coming out. If you guys want
574. 20:26to see a post tunes um updated list
575. 20:30before the YCS, let me know. Can you
576. 20:32explain why people are playing Typhoon
577. 20:33over Harpies and stuff? Because Typhoon
578. 20:36you can use on your own turn when they E
579. 20:37for you or it's just um I don't know
580. 20:40what by the time you can harpies them
581. 20:42they have something on they have the uh
582. 20:45whatever the angelic card is called
583. 20:49they'll have the bastion up which
584. 20:51protects against which protects against
585. 20:53it. So this is just being a hand trap on
586. 20:55their own turn like this is a hand trap
587. 20:57right? This is like a hand trap MST for
588. 20:59a face up card. Um, so you can use on
589. 21:01their own turn before they establish
590. 21:03Bastion.
591. 21:05So, it's basically just like if you see
592. 21:07like ogre plus typhoon or ash plus
593. 21:10typhoon or ogre ash uh or like fua plus
594. 21:13any of those or like draw plus any of
595. 21:15those you can like you're always beating
596. 21:17angelic
597. 21:19and also evenly once again just like
598. 21:22slams that deck like they're going to be
599. 21:24lot like you didn't hand trap them if
600. 21:27they end on the trap anyways and if you
601. 21:28do hand trap them they are never ending
602. 21:30on the trap so like evenly is probably
603. 21:33resolved I Just no. No sanctifier
604. 21:35either. I really don't think sanctifier
605. 21:36is needed. Like I was talking to um one
606. 21:39of my students today in a coaching
607. 21:41session for Brandon and I was he was
608. 21:43wondering why no sanctifier. And really
609. 21:45to be honest, it's just like if they
610. 21:46gallant you, you just fallen in the
611. 21:48virtuous puppet, right? And if you're
612. 21:50doing the combos correctly, you should
613. 21:51you should be ending on fav. So gallant
614. 21:53isn't really an issue. And then also
615. 21:54evenly, no one's unevenly. People are on
616. 21:57spatial trunade, which spatial trunade
617. 21:59can suck game three for sure. Uh, that's
618. 22:02why if you want to run Dells, I wouldn't
619. 22:05blame you. But if you go full board, you
620. 22:07don't die to space to Hey, Space
621. 22:09Trudeau. So, I don't know. All right,
622. 22:10but yeah, that's the deck list. My 10 in
623. 22:13one branded deck list. Uh, what did you
624. 22:15guys think of that? Please let me know
625. 22:17down below. Veiler sucks against Chun.
626. 22:19No, field spell just dodges it. If is
627. 22:21that true? Then I guess not. I guess
628. 22:23it's not good against that deck. I just
629. 22:25remember the OCG were all going to like
630. 22:27Veilers and Imperms when um that deck
631. 22:29came out. Yeah, it's like my favorite
632. 22:30deck. It made me reffell in love with
633. 22:32Yu-Gi-Oh. And I'll admit when I was
634. 22:33wrong. Like the thing is though, I'm so
635. 22:35happy to be wrong about Branded not
636. 22:38being playable. Um, so you know, I'll
637. 22:40take the L on that
