This is actually great, because it showcases how playing control is a skill. It’s thinking turns ahead, which glads 110% do. With a lot of modern players coming back to format play, it’s foreign strategy. It’s extending into an established board. AWESOME video 👏 way to dive deep
I def keep popping into different decision trees every single game that even after dozens on matches I often fail to make the right choice. 8-1 right now on the ladder but even something as simple as test tiger into best card choice at any moment can be tough and the indicator for the rest of the game.
Hmm I didn’t even notice that he didn’t. Tough and could have changed the game but based on him losing his grave and me having bottomless against a zombie master, not sure it mattered. Good catch though!
My theory on this deck is totally different. I feel like glads is really a control stun deck that basically wins by grinding the game to a halt then burying the opponent in advantage. Like blowing out cards like brain control or bottomless. I feel like there’s no room for tiger. No room for cat. But ppl say I’m crazy
Ive been consuming a ton of Edison format content. My first experience with gladiator beast was in Duel Links i achieved king of games multiple times with the deck during drastically different formats on multiple occasions. That's how i fell in love with the archetype and the play still. I've been wanting to play Glads irl for a long time and Edison seems like the perfect opportunity. I see lots of Edison players saying Glads aren't that great and are tier two, because their ATK threshold is low (Laquari's 1800 being the highest normal summon in the deck). I don't care what the haters say I'm going to master the deck and show its viability. Thank you for this insightful video.
It’s a wonderful deck to be sure. What I often hear is “bad deck” then I win and “gb is just a bad match up for Me” it’s what everyone says online. Irl tournaments, my locals knows to respect gb and they do!
Glads shouldn’t get the hate they get, they’re just a fun semi competitive strategy. Like why all the hate. Their gimmick isn’t that bad to play against. A deck like Lightsworn is way more sacky but they get a fraction of the hate lol
Exactly! While after player glads for the past week I think they are better than “semi-competitive” it’s a lot of undue hate! A deck that actually focuses on non broken mechanics of Yugioh in a non broken way just gets memed on for no reason!
Yeah by semi competitive I don’t mean to say they aren’t competitive. They’re a good deck that are fun to play with and imo also neat to play against. I’ve never been upset when I run into a glad player 1 out of every 20 games on duelling book@@ma.2099

32:00 goblin zombie was mandatory, he should have searched after gyzarus

Is hedge guard run over Waboku mostly for the surprise potential of it being in hand? Also avoids overplaying into heavy?
Really the heavy factor is most important here yes. It’s great to also “beat” honest and Kulut is dmg step.
@@ma.2099 thanks for the quick reply! Great video btw as well as your subsequent one winning top 4
I love you paul
No Ali. I love you.
