KINDA IMPORTANT IF YOU'RE BUILDING THIS DECK: Heyyo! Your video today got me inspired enough to go to my LCS and finally build Despia. I'm a Locals hangoutter who has built decks from Mathmech, Floowandereeze, Ancient Warriors, Numeron, Madolche, Sky Striker, Marincess, Melffy, and so on. I've not topped or even performed in any YCS/Regionals (Have topped locals enough) but HEAR ME OUT... Your deck profile is super clean and I like the ratios, but your extra deck feels off by one card. The current way your deck is built has ZERO ways to out any tower monster bigger than 3k. I think as a really, really smart meta call (and as an additional $48 budget decrease) you should take out the 2nd Guardian Chimera that doesn't come up often and replace it for Starving Venom. Not as a Super-poly Target, per se. But as a way to out Towers by having something chunky enough to swing over. EZ To make with the Frightfur engine and also DOES make for another superpoly target. TL;DR: 2 Chimeras is win-more. Changing one out for a Starving Venom makes the deck able to play around big Towers because nothing else in the deck can and adds an additional super-poly target.
This was pure gold for me. I wont lie, I've been sleeping on the Dragon Keeper. I will be adding that in to my deck and trying some combos this week for sure
Amazing video thanks man Juat 2 points: 1. The out to the scythe combo is droplet that a lot plays. 2. It better not to use the trap in draw face but after he summon 1 monster to doge imperm.
@@naxy_7 Yes but Droplet is send to GY for cost, it has no conflicting interaction with Ra's Disciple which only prevents itself from being tributed. Send to GY ≠ Tribute
At the start of the video when you said “you thought we were dead?” You should’ve said “fools, what is dead can never die.” But I’m a sucker for a song of ice and fire.
Love that you're featuring this deck! Is the deck list 43 cards then? Or are some of those cards meant to be side decked and only in the deck for game 2?
I might actually try out Ra’s Disciple in my Lair of Branded Krystia deck. I’ve actually started using Dragoon for a end board of usually sometimes with him, Mirrorjade, and few traps.
I can appreciate that you are honest and give credit that you got inspiration for your combo from somewhere else unlike these fools that only give shoutouts to their circle and plaster god tier and tier zero over every one of their deck profiles
Expulsion is a really nice card, giving us so many targets to play with. Playing around with it since POTE release and you could also send Dark targets like Jinzo, Invaders of Chaos, The End of Anubis or even a Banisher of Light. Jinzo against trap decks like Labrynth, Eldlich, Invader against Spright/Runick (although they could already chain their cards to Expulsion to play around it), Banisher against Floo and Anubis against Tear. End of Anubis is weak in defense tho have to protect it against attacks. I like your take with Keeper I'll try that soon.
@@ariaminamoto5087 yeah my mistake, but it has to be good against Tear. Chaos Hunter is what you could send and reborn against Floo (don't know if worth)
Hey guys, maybe one of you can help me with a little something I encountered while playing with a friend. We played Adamancipator against Despia and I really struggle to put anything against his Dragite. There seem to be just too many starters for Despia to handle, and with returning cards to the hand (or essentially shuffling the Fusion monsters back into the Extra Deck), it circumvents basically all removal follow ups that Despia normally has (like Quaeritis, Theatre, Mirrorjade, Opening, etc.), while also Super Poly is a dead card because there are no Lights, Darks or Dragons. On top of that he also plays Naturia Beast and Koa'ki Meiru Guardian to completely lock me down. Saying all this, how would you try to stop him getting to Dragite, or how would you play against Adamancipator as a Despia player in general? Thanks in advance for anyone interested in answering:)
I run my deck almost the same exact way, I will have to try out the keeper of dragon mage though. I'm not a fan or fluffy cards the deck runs good with and without them. And the scythe lock combo is so GOOOOOOD people really don't see it coming.
Wooow, I didn't know about that expulsion card!! Using tragedy to keep bringing back expulsion which keeps bringing back scythe was really cool. I know scythe locking is gross, but using tragedy's secondary ability (and usually lesser used ability) to loop a combo was really cool to see!! 🥶
So, I haven't really messed with Despia before all too much, so my question for this deck is How do you play past hand traps and negates? Let's say your Keeper, Aluber or Fusion gets stopped? What else could you potentially draw in your opening hand that helps you play past that? I'm really looking into getting into Despia so I'd like to know how to do all this if someone could let me know!
Thats the biggest knock on Despia, that one ash blossom ends your turn. Counters to this are drawing Albaz + a way to fuse him off into Albion or Lubellion, drawing the called by lol, opening keeper/instant fusion + a way to branded fusion (you use instant fusion to make millennium eyes restrict before going for branded fusion so it can't get ashed unless they have double handtrap). Overall its super hard to play through handtraps with this deck which is why it has fallen off so hard but in formats that are very nib focused, board breaker focused, or when ash is bad all around, this can put in some work. I hope that helps!
If you fear certain hand traps, you can counter play them with crossout designator, assuming you are running at least a copy of the hand trap as well. I personally ran triple tactics talent so if they hand trap me, I can either rip another card if I can keep going, or draw 2 to dig a little bit for a possible extender or another starter. I've found most people will hold the ash for the branded fusion so you still get fusion locked (just in case you run a couple of links), so if you open the fusion and have gamma, you pretty much just win out from there.
I think its way easier to do this combo just by opening Aluber. It can get caught off guard by a DD Crow or Called by, but to be fair Keeper of Dragon Magic gets got by Ash or Imperm and now you discarded a card on top of that. It seems minus as hell if ur opp has any response at all. If you open aluber u can use Branded Fusion to make Albion by sending scythe & albaz, then banish albaz and albion for Mirrorjade and banish ur own aluber w mirror jade eff. End phase u set the Branded Expulsion and ur done. You only have to open Aluber or Branded Opening and you dont have to discard to search. Thats my 2 cents, regardless keep up the great vids bro.
@@BlazingGear No my friend, you make mirror jade with Albion and Albaz. Then send another albion from Extra deck with Mirrorjade to banish ur own aluber and set Expulsion at EP
Only problem is your opponent is going to use Effect Veiler, followed by Ash Blossom, and if you some how get around all that they will hit you with Super Poly. Besides that really nice deck
Is the keeper of dragon magic better than the aluber combo that chris lofton shared? I also thought people weren't on expulsion because of how gimmicky it is, and branded fusion is very likely to get ashed. But I would definitely like to see the deck do a gauntlet against spright, tears, runick spright, etc. Love the content Cali keep it up
Nice some recognition for retribution lol Iv been playing that card at 1 in the main when the structure decks first came. I think it has potential honestly
Great combos ma man, i run a dark magician in the deck and fusion deployments Never thought of keeper of dragon magic, will be thinking of changes indeed
Glad to see more people using the Branded Expulsion Scythe lock, I came up with it while playing with some friends and brought it to locals, only lost one game against spright.
@@Ser-- I mean, it's cheap, so most players can use it. It's not super busted, compared to the curent meta, and I'm generally glad that if other people took notice of this and find it effective then it wasn't just dumb luck, it has potential
You can do the expulsion combo in a much more effective way that has less steps, doesn't eat your normal summon for keeper, and also gives you a Mirrorjade
Would you mind sharing the combo? The ban list hit all my favorite decks except this one, so I really wanna keep it relevant to avoid having to build a new deck from nothing.
Wow, that's actually cracked. I knew that Scythe was good, but the combo is magnifique. Definitely switching my ratios and playing this version at my locals.
11:00. I play ghost mourner over effect veiler. It's got it's own applications, but it sure does stop scythe. I don't get why people say despia is not good. Have you seen what it does? Sure nothing compares to the 2 best decks, but it keeps up. It keeps up alright. This deck doesn't run out of gas
So i love the despia arch type. I used to play back in 2011 and stoped when link format started. Any ways, is there a way to hybrid the despia & shadolls? I have most of your deck list to work with but maybe a splash of them would be cool any Advice
well, in OCG branded opening is semi limited anyways, now for standard tcg this doesn't matter but i get a lot of my info from OCG tournament statistics, because usually OCG knows what their doing, like recently someone got top 16 WITH MIKANKO
I’m new to yugioh but not really I’ve been playing for like 2 months now and everyone at my locals play spright and was hoping if you can do a anti spright deck or can someone please comment some decks that counter spright
This deck does reasonably well against spright going First because their small bodies, If you go Second and your oponent doesnt pull the toad or you respond to It (you dont NEED to Go Nibiru, you can Go any other handtrap that fits your meta) sometimes you can just attack over their board
Honestly this video did help me wanna build a ygo deck again Been in a slump for awhile but I wanna be able to play in a tournament my friends are holding this Nov This is looking like the deck that I'm taking Great video🔥
I would have to replace the keeper of dragon magic with springans kitt just because it can search from anywhere and not just the deck but I see with dpe it'll be better to run it.
I'm confused. Ended up with 45 cards for the deck. Removed the Ra, Lance, and Archlord and had 42. I couldn't add a Super Poly due to making this deck on Masterduel so it's suppsed to have 43 cards?
I changed the main deck slightly, (due to me preferring some cards over others... like 3 opening), but I do have to say I really like the combo. I built the deck kinda hearing about this combo, but to actually be able to pull it off CONSISTANTLY, is absolutely insane. Also, while I'm here can we take a look at adamancipators? I'm very new to that deck and I love your style of videos, so you might be able to teach me a thing or to
If you summon scythe to your field and aluber to your opponent's then imperm is a dead card. And droplets can stop it, but your opponent will have to go -1 just to be available to play.
@@Malister23 Even if they use Droplet to send the monster you gave them and negate Scythe FOR FREEEE, this was a 1.5 card combo and with 3 Red if you open it (or the trap) you can just chain Red to fuse Scythe away and dodge Droplet. It was just a demonstration of how good Keeper is for the deck. EDIT: Even if they also have Imperm, their already activated Droplet will prevent its activation.
Summon snow to there side of the field to disrupt them??? I don't think anyone's going to be summoning snow to either side of the field..... R.I.P. Snow ❄️ I love you😔
Lol I play a weird 60 card branded darklord build, but it's ironically really consistent. Personally, I didn't think it would flow so well, but hey...went 4-0 and 2 different locals. To be fair, they had no clue what the heck my deck was aiming to do until it was too late haha.
Alba lenatus says to special summon this card you can send the fusion materials to the grave. This is not the fusion summon where you can actually use face down monsters. So can you send a face down Albaz?
KINDA IMPORTANT IF YOU'RE BUILDING THIS DECK:
Heyyo! Your video today got me inspired enough to go to my LCS and finally build Despia.

I love keeper of the dragon magic. Especially if anyone still wants to play DPE because it searches anyyyyy normal fusion spell
I am literally in the middle of building this deck right now and this profile came in CLUTCH
I've also seen people using this with Ra's Disciple to give to their opponent to completely lock them out of special summoning.

Nice Video with good ideas! But u could just use the Aluber for a Scythe lock as Well and u Would have a mirrorjade…

Will definitely consider this ( except Snow)
R.I.P. Snow
Had to check if I had master duel running in the background while watching this XD
Am I the only one that feels like after tear and Spright get hit, despia will just rise back up? For some reason that's the vibe I'm getting
no?
Who cares
In my honest opinion any cards that shit off the graveyard will wreck tear it's just no one main decks them
rip snow

It works very well and help you grind more
I’ve been playing branded darkLords, Yh it’s a 50 but it pops a lot when all the negates are out of the way
Lol I play a weird 60 card branded darklord build, but it's ironically really consistent. Personally, I didn't think it would flow so well, but hey...went 4-0 and 2 different locals. To be fair, they had no clue what the heck my deck was aiming to do until it was too late haha.
HOW I WAS MISSING YOUR CHARACTERS!!
Alba lenatus says to special summon this card you can send the fusion materials to the grave. This is not the fusion summon where you can actually use face down monsters. So can you send a face down Albaz?
yepp you can fusion with face down materials
The fusion mechanic does not check materials until they are in the graveyard. So yes, you can use face down monsters.
I fucking know! But it says to special summon this card you don’t need poly. So is it like a contact Fusion? Will it be treated as a fusion summon?
@@alexanderwinter6564 the 'contact fusion' is a special summon, you can fusion summon it off something like lubellion
Wanna see this deck in action
