Could you make an in depth video about the deck and its combos? As someone who never approached Rikka before i'd like to know what win conditions this deck has and maybe learn some of the best combos!
Lmao, was he a short dark skinned guy with a smug look on his face the whole time that played exchange, and a bunch of weird roll dice and flip coin cards?
@@smileykunTCG Oh, must have been a diff guy then the one Im talking about because I lost my first 3 matches and the guy Im talking about was the first one I played to go on a four game win streak just to lose round 8 to Spright. No that I look back at his matches it wouldnt make sense to play the guy Im talking about. This dude played Mine and summoned some rock monster. I Zeused his field and won from there. The 2nd game I sat on Crooked Cook until I drew into MST. He played some card where we search a card from our deck then randomly take out four other cards then randomly select one of all those cards and add it to our hand and I got the MST so I had two. He played exchange on me to get the MDT out of my hand but I had 2 and I otked him after that. We had a crowd watching us shaking their heads because he had Mine and I had Cook lmao.
Great Job !! Not only an awesome performance but also great explanations. I’ve actually been getting interested in Plant decks but the much more focused Rikka builds like this.
10:30 Remember that you tribute for cost when you activate cards like Glamour or Princess’ negate. Your opponents Baronne couldnt even respond because it got tributed for cost. Konkon is absolutely nuts.
hi, I'm the opponent that got mollywopped by this at the regional. I could definitely have negated the initial activation of the Field Spell prior- I had Ghost Ogre in hand and, since I was unfamiliar with the Rikka cards, thought it was a better idea to hold for the effect to set.
GG's on the final round of swiss! I had fun playing against your Rikka deck, even though I wasn't aware of what they did at the time. I'll make sure to have some spicy tech for next time, if we ever play again
ayoo congrats. Deck profile look really great. I also used to play Rikka when it first came out and recently took it to locals with the new support and did lean more on the Rikka cars like you did. they help so much in breaking boards and aren't as bricky like the Therion stuff. It really caught a lot of people by surprise that it could make such a deceptively strong end board that doesn't lose to Dark ruler. I was also dark ruler'd by my opponents and they couldn't break through due to Konkon, Princess, Sheet and Rikka tagging into another plant XZY.
@@RJCPalFish Field spell, Rikka Princess in hand or GY, Rikka sheet and if you still have Strenna, if you tribute her for cost with Princess or Sheet she tags out into Hyperyton or Teardrop, lets you still have at least 3 interruptions if you get dark ruler'd.
Watching this vid got me hyped as hell to buff up my Rikka deck in master duel.... until I found the 2 newest cards listed here(princess and konkon) arent in the game yet :(
My locals has 4 lost world players … anti spell fragrance has become a must play in my deck, I really wish master duel had the new field spell so I could test this out
I am considering solemn judgment in the list over trap tricks. Spiritual water art is like... decent but not always great if you can't put a water fodder on board. I wouldn't run pollinosis over judgment more than likely.
I get you totally. spiritual water art could work in pure rikka but maybe not the greatest in this. Since the sunavalon part doesn't really have water monsters in it. Also thank you for another amazing deck profile
Personally with this deck right now I cut out the sunseed twin to make the loci combo take less investment extra deck wise and to also cut out a brick, You still end on Benghalancer plus strenna with princess in grave and konkon on field with just loci, or you can end on Benghalancer plus sheet and konkon. I really like the extra space in the extra deck this affords you since you dont have to play 2 healer and 3 dryas for a combo you only go through once. Im curious as to what you think about this decision since Ive had multiple games where a 3rd strenna or a 2nd dancepione came up but I can also see the argument that the extra interruptions going first is too good to pass up on.
@@TopTierGamingYGO I havent had those situations come up for me outside of 1 instance where I was in a heavy grind game and I used its gy effect to tribute a dryas on my field to reborn a dancepione but I can totally see how it could come up in other ways with things like primula boosting its level to make strenna or hitting it off dancepione, I might just have to look into other ways to shave extra deck space because 3 strenna comes up for me way too much for me to ignore imo.
@ignister is probably my worst matchup as there is no out to a 4k arrival. You have to draw hand traps. Mystic mine turbo is usually dealt with by glamour. And empen stuff is I guess the same as any other deck trying to out it. Draw good hand traps or dark ruler haha. You can also just tribute their stuff as cost for glamour with your field spell.
How do u make sacred tree beast hyperion I saw no 9s(snowdrops effect to copy) or 7s (Primulas effect 2 increase) so how are u getting 2 level 9s on the field?? N u said u don't play mardel
That is exactly it, and it won me my mystic mine burn match. I forgot to give specific mention to that in the profile, but that is what I was referring to
Hey I love this list and archetype, really wanna build it but RN cannot afford triple glamour... Think there's anything at all I could run to replace them? I know they're key and help even break boards going 2nd with the field spell, but I'll probably have to hold off for a whiiile before I buy them x) Thanks in advance if anybody replies
Unfortunately, glmaour isn't a card like prosperity. Glamour is an engine piece, and not having it in the deck changes the deck entirely. It can't be played to a great capacity without it. You can try putting in hand traps, but the deck won't function the same way.
I know its already been said a few times but I would love to see a combo vid. I pretty much get the xyz but the link combos I dont get mostly cus I never seen or played plants before
@@TopTierGamingYGO Ig to search Mine. I just have PTSD from droll as I'm the creator of extrav spyrals. Was happy to see pros use the build 2 months after me
That's insane, congrats. Was the HT count enough? I feel like 10 is not enough for this format. Is the engine sufficient to do something through boards when you don't see them, or when you see like only one and it isn't enough to put a stop on your opponent. There is the trick you mentioned with Konkon + Glamour, but well, didn't the spright Toad/Carrot the field spell?
I was testing around with 1 lily for a while just to be able to search snowdrop and lily off glamor. But overall I just prefer hand traps and go second cards and keeping the list at 40.
Ruling question for konkon's second effect: If you activate rikka sheet on your opponents turn, can you use konkon to tribute their monster on their turn?
It's not a great matchup. Statue is tough to deal with if you don't have field spell and glamour. The non engine cards in the deck beat floowandereeze pretty hard though, like Gamma and imperm and ash and ogre.
Wow it’s actually just a couple of cards off from what I’ve been playtesting. Did you ever see the field spell but no Rikka monster? I feel like that happens to me.
I feel like I pick up decks decently quick. But I still need a good amount of testing before I take a deck to a regional confidently. Usually a week is what I consider the minimum.

GG's man, played you round 8 at the regional. Your deck is honestly really interesting, glad I had the chance to read some cards, lmao.
yooo lets get it!!! Glad all the testing paid off was super enjoyable to watch! (even the incredibly frustrating one, you know which)
Congrats on the Top Aaron! Awesome decklist! I love watching all the rogue deck lists you post! Great video, definitely going to try this deck!
Congratz on the top 8, the deck looked nice when I was watching at locals. #HarpieGang
Thanks for sharing and congratulations 👏 on top, well deserve
So... YOURE THE CHAD! That spiked Rikka prices. I was strolling through the Rikka values and man... Rikka value back up.
Wow you are such a champ! So excited to see this
Heck Yeah Man, Congrats!
Congrats on the top man! Hopefully we can both top next time hahaha. Plant Gang!
Combo video, a good idea. The deck it's pretty good, nice vídeo
Congratulations man🎉🎊
Congrats Aaron!
New player and found rikkas and aromas. Seemed to get a lot of good ones so built decks. Im in love with my teardrop and snowdrop

That is an awsome playmat
Once we get the new support for mayakashi in your opinion what would u run this or mayakashi/zw
Thoughts on scarlight red dragon Archfiend? Can wipe boards
I love when i get to gloat about having this deck and got it when the deck was cheap
Imagine they started making new Kaiju but they gave us a plant one. How insane it could be.
Excelente deck muy exótico y no muy de lo mismo :) saludos desde Perú
Dude I watch you all the time and didnt even see you there.
Congrats! Will you do a Combo-Tutorial?
deck is almost exactly the same as my version, extra deck is very different though, may have to test out some of your picks

How do you deal with empen+statue or mystic mine turbo? How can you out 4k arrival ignister with the deck?
@ignister is probably my worst matchup as there is no out to a 4k arrival. You have to draw hand traps.
Mystic mine turbo is usually dealt with by glamour.
And empen stuff is I guess the same as any other deck trying to out it.

When strenna(the rank 4) is tributed, you can summon a rank 5 or higher plant xyz from the extra deck and attach herself as material
Unrelated to what I asked some time ago, but what are your thoughts on hellebore? Nice to have a negate but brick in most other situations?
Hellebore is only good as mill to gy imo, to play around certain situations, not very worth running
I love it, but I’m curious why don’t you play helabore since she negates imperm as well as veiler?
Hellebore only negates the monster effects, not traps.
Will you be doing a combo guide?
Ive been interestrd in building rikka for so long but im missing too many pieces
Really nice! What do you think about Pollinosis going first?
It's alright but no where near as good as judgment or appointer
Maybe I just missed it.
What was your decks out to mystic mine that you were mentioning? Is it just glamour tribute ur guy so mine destroys in EP?
That is exactly it, and it won me my mystic mine burn match.
I forgot to give specific mention to that in the profile, but that is what I was referring to
Hey I love this list and archetype, really wanna build it but RN cannot afford triple glamour... Think there's anything at all I could run to replace them?

Maybe more handtraps? Maindeck DRNM? Third loci and third lonefire?
Unfortunately, glmaour isn't a card like prosperity.

Could you swap out hyperton and the sylvan protector for ultimate slayer cards like ntss and evil twin trouble sunny?
Definitely not haha.
You need those monsters as strenna targets.
@@TopTierGamingYGO Could you at least find a way to put trouble sunny in for the Omega?
how often did the third konkon come up? ik the first place EUCS guy played two which kinda tilted me because it looks like the best card in ur deck
He was also playing a terraforming, so fundamentally the same amount.

The engine can definitely eat through interrupts. There is no way to really play more than 10 so it's what the deck can fit haha

Dope deck! Did you miss the therion engine in the deck? congrats on the top

Ruling question for konkon's second effect: If you activate rikka sheet on your opponents turn, can you use konkon to tribute their monster on their turn?
Yes. The field spell is continuous

thoughts on Spore?
Not good as we don't play synchros and it's a brick haha.
It's like an OK extender but not worth playing.
Was wondering if you ever made a pure rikka build
I have. You can check the channel for my initial profile I made when the new support was announced : )
Wow it’s actually just a couple of cards off from what I’ve been playtesting. Did you ever see the field spell but no Rikka monster? I feel like that happens to me.
Maybe once or twice all tournament
Do u think therions isnt worth in heavy rikka ?
Yea I would rather leave the list at 40
