Notes & Combos

Ended up adding in Belle to help against Superfactorial, as well as Branded in Red. I did try to use Void Trap Hole for a short while and it did work against Branded, however, it seems like it's not really worth it overall. Even more so if I'm not running Raff.

I also added in a 3rd Torrential to help against Mathmech to blow their field up if you go first and removed Iron Wall and a second Brigandine from last season to cut the deck down a little in size.

So far in this season, I don't think I've gone into the following at all yet:

• Traptrix Allomerus
• Accesscode Talker

Everyone else in the ED has had some use, here and there. Although, I think I might have gone into the following like once or at least a few enough amount of times that I rarely see them:

• Black Luster Soldier - Soldier of Chaos
  • It did win me a game against Runick

As for match-ups this season:

• Branded is still really rough if you don't open Ash to stop Branded Fusion/if your opponent opens pretty well and keeps going off.
• Runick still feels like a luck of the draw, however, Prison really saved my bacon. I was even able to win 3 Runick match-ups in a row going second in each. The first started with Cyber-Stein + Exterio and the third game opened Skill Drain. The first game I actually have saved in my replays. For the third game, with Prison, I usually go for Nadir to pop a backrow and get going a little depending on what my opponent has. If I feel good enough with what I have, I just go for more offensive cards [although.. I say that, but Nadir is still really good for the N'tss pop and getting a monster at the same time]
• Mathmech really depends on if you go first or second / what you open. Looking at my games, I won half of the games and lost the other half. You could add more techs in like another Belle.. but then that gives you worse hands potentially / a dead card against other decks.. although, Belle is good against Runick, which was my second most seen deck. Mathmech being number one.
• Other decks seem the same as before. Open decent against Swordsoul and they don't open the nuts to use Mo Ye, Longyuan, AND Taia in the same turn, you should be good. Otherwise, if you don't and they get out Baronne + Chixiao, it's still tough usually. Floo is a pain as per normal. Hope you open Ash/Imperm and they don't Advent out/open Map.
