Notes & Combos

RIP Branded in TCG. im genuinely sad because im scared they treat Branded that way in MD.

Secretion is a very good tech card right now. Doubling down on going first with crossout really helped me for my promo game.

Patiently waiting for Mixsousia! 🙏

Flexspots

ED: every card has it's purpose and all were definitely used. there are only two flexspots.

  • Proskenian good for mirror match to banish ED for no end phase efects. Good for lethal and stealing useful ED cards from opponent.

  • Secretion Dragon great tech card for Elfnote Match up for a Super Poly target and can be made easily in this Deck.

Main deck:

  • Magnamhut a two card commbo with mercourier/ high spirits target. useful for light and dark match up. most cut-able card in deck for whatever is preferred

  • Gold sarc/Mercourier gold sarc is a 1cc (assuming you dont open Mercourier in same hand) 2nd most cut-able card, however think it is necessary due to branded lacking starters. only about 11 1cc combo

  • Crossout not necessary. can add Nadir, or any non engine based on Budget, preference, or meta calls

  • ratios of Ecclesia and Cartesia I have been seeing a mix and match of having 1-2 copies of these girls, and personally think it's healthy to have two. there are hands where you open ecclesia and walbaz, and would lose card economy if you summon ecclesia from hand.

Branded fusion is a lot weaker if you banish Cartesia to go into albion & Dusk dragon.
