  • Hai. Here is my branded list for the upcoming format in which branded opening is limited, and snake eye is the dominant deck.
    Decklist is shown at the end of the video. You can also see it on MDM here - www.masterduelmeta.com/saved-...
    Some explanations are in the pinned comment.
    The music is all original soundtracks from the Touhou game series. I just like the music, it's very cool.
    Music 1 = A God That Loves People ~ Romantic Fall.
    Music 2 = Mystic Oriental Love Consultation.
    Music 3 = True Administrator.
    Music 4 = Energy Reimei Future Dream.
    Music 5 = Fate of Sixty Years.
    Music 6 = Wind God Girl.

    Some Explanations:
    - The 2nd Kitt is to replace the missing starter lost when Opening gets limited. Sometimes the 2nd Kitt comes in useful too. I prefer kitt to Nadir Servant, since Nadir really doesnt do much by itself.
    - The Effect Veilers are a good handtrap to stop snake-eye. Using it on Snake-Eye Ash is usually more effective than Nibiru would be. Most snake eye players are skilled enough to play around/through nibiru now. Its important to play veiler instead of imperm in branded, since its a spellcaster, allowing it to be used with High Spirits by sending Granguingol to the graveyard. Its also material for sanctifire, which allows you to summon sanctifire with branded fusion without having to use cartesia or quem. This can come up when you draw access to both of them and dont want to waste the value. Having a monster you can normal summon to make verte is also an advantage over imperm. Its also potentially material for granguinol alongside cartesia too, which is a play that can come up when the only engine card you draw is fusion deployment.
    - Triple Tactics Talents is effective at breaking the snake-eye board. Usually a strong hand of engine + talents can push through the full snake-eye combo. I prefer this to more handtraps as they are generally unreliable, since the opponent will sometimes have called by, crossout, or an extender to push through the handtrap. Only 2 copies since it can brick in multiples. Theres a lot of handtraps in the format too, so having talents in your hand going 1st is often pretty nice.
    - Quearitis is the best target to play for granguinol. It has the best application for otks, since it can reduce the opponents monsters to 0 attack. The only matchup where proskenion is preferred is the mirror match. Snake-eye is the dominant deck currently, so the build should be customized for that matchup mainly. Quearitis is also very practical compared to the alternatives, since it can be easily made with branded in red, superpoly, banishment. Masquerade is the next best thing, but since it cant be summoned with granguinols effect, its best to play queartis.
    - The Thrusts + duplication are mandatory in my opinon. Thrust is so strong going 2nd, especially when talents is in the deck, and its a lifesaver going 1st.
    - Mudragon is a flex spot. It could be garura, or even a different albaz fusion too. (sometimes i miss Brigrand).

      ​​@@mochanomochaHonestly at this point I don't think losing Branded Fusion would kill the deck. There's so many ways to use, search for, and recycle other fusion monsters/spells that we don't need to solely rely on Branded Fusion anymore.
      It's likely due to the fact that early on BF was seen to be the best card in the deck but was obviously vulnerable to Ash Blossom which prompted duelists to find a way around this. That has been perfected so much by now that you don't even need to use BF to win a duel now. Cartisia, Branded in White, Super Polymerization, and the original Polymerization in a well built deck could carry you through most duels as long as you know how to use it.
      As long as it's legal it will of course continue to see play but if we were to lose it I personally believe Branded players would do as we've done from the beginning and continue to adapt. Losing Cartisia could definitely be a real problem though as that's our best way of dodging Ash Blossom but I don't see that happening.

      You mostly mill it via Mirrorjade if you want to search Kitt. It’s important because Kitt can retrieve Branded Fusion that has been banished from something like Fusion Duplication.

    What specifically did you find better by replacing the fusion 'Despian Proskenion' with 'Despian Quaeritis'
    I love to rework the main/extra deck of Branded Despia to see multiple utilities.
    Actualy balancing the pros and cons of the two above-mentioned cards. You realy have a good control of these decks so if you can enlighten me, I would be grateful to you.
    In any case, I thank you for the numerous content that you present on your channel which have supported me in my adventures on Yu Gi Oh!

    • @AprilShowerz
      @AprilShowerz  4 місяці тому +4

      thanks! specifically the reason i prefer quearitis is that it only takes 2 monsters to make, instead of the 3 that proskenion requires. This means you can more often use branded in red or superpoly, or banishment to dodge something like imperm or veiler, since there doesnt need to be multiple other monsters on the field. Its also a much more reliable card to keep you safe from being otkd in the case that your only defense is the granguingol effect. Lastly, its because it can be summoned on your own turn to help push for lethal even when the opponent has a lot of monsters on the board. This comes up a lot against snake eye, their link monsters will always be in attack position, so you can sometimes otk by attacking them after reducing their attack to 0. Proskenion is better in the mirror match since it can revive powerful monsters from the opponents graveyard like mirrorjade, or banish their albaz fusions so they cant trigger in the endphase. Its also 3200 so it requires an effect to be removed, rather than just an attack. Since snake-eye has been released though, the mirror is less common, so its not worth playing proskenion just for this.

    • @stuart792
      @stuart792 4 місяці тому +2

      Your arguments are very interesting, I take note of them. I hadn't really seen Quaeritis as a secondary interruption yet, I use these Despia Fusions a lot more via the kisscool effect of the Grandgignol To have a big defender Proskenion has 3200 attack to exceed the limit of 3000 quite common among bosses.
      As for the effect of reducing attack points to zero, it makes sense, I note.
      You inspired me to get into Branded Despia and frankly I find the deck very cool, even if it's true that sometimes in the current meta it's really a constant battle where I question all the choices in terms of Deckbuilding. I'm still new to Branded, I still have a lot to learn, anyway.
      Thank you very much for your very comprehensive response. Very interesting !

      it can only negate a fusion, synchro, xyz, or link monster effect. and it also has to chain directly to monster effect. if your opponent responds inbetween then you wont be able to. remember that u need to be toggled to auto or on for rindbrum to offer itself.
