Want to apologize again for the slow play. This was my first DB tournament and just learned how to play DB the week before this so the program is super new to me. Forgs is a modern deck in edison format that shit takes so long and I'm still learning a lot of the lines. This was practice for me so I appreciate everyone sticking through it. I played 8 rounds in a row without a second of break time I had my partner delivering granola bars and water on the sidelines, I did not leave my chair for 6 hours. Had to skip dinner and played as soon as I got home from work had me so fried I could barely think lol and that deck is hard. Did not think I'd make it to losers finals after losing in the first round it was a hell of a run
Hey Frazier, I'd like to request a Teach Me How to Cook with the Machina HRC/Control deck. Additionally, I think an educational piece on testing backrow and evaluating risk for testing backrow would be helpful. As a player, I have difficulty navigating the balance between testing for something and knowing whether testing for it might cause me to lose the game. Thanks for making great content.
@@julianweidmann3667 Appreciate the input from the champ himself! I feel like I end up getting too passive when my opponent has backrow, waiting to find an out to something that may or may not actually matter. But I'm a novice Edison player, so it might just be a reps problem.
@@jfgthree3 Yeah playing well into backrow is one of the things that makes you a good player. Lyla for example checks for bottomless. They will almost never not bottomless her. Fortress also checks for bth and d prison if you attack. So if your attacks goes through you can be sure there is something else. often its not the end of the world to summon fortress and run into d prison or mirror force if you reborned it with force because you plus so easily
@@julianweidmann3667 I appreciate this insight. It made me realize I've been falling into a trap about being afraid of getting my Fortress D Prison'd because Fortress is such a high value card, but thinking about it in terms of future card advantage generation helps clarify the right mindset. Thanks for your time!

With Machina there is not much to cook. Its one of the easiest decks to play. Just do not play dumb into backrow
