Notes & Combos
Up until M3 I was running the stuff for the DBB/Spirit Gates into Yubel combo, but then I removed it because it takes up so much extra deck space and is so resource intense. It came up rarely and when it did it could die so horribly to hand traps.
I'm going to be honest: I almost never made Loving Defender. I put her and Eternal Favorite to have a Maxx "C" plan (Lotus -> Spirit of Yubel -> Eternal Favorite -> Phantom of Yubel = 2 special summons for a negate and a board fuse) but interestingly it rarely came up. It does help that this deck can play a huge anti-Maxx "C" suite. I still honestly kind of liked Eternal Favorite just because it could recover banished Yubels, which did come up more than once. That being said, Mature Chronicle also recurs from banishment, so maybe that card's better.
