Notes & Combos

... Uncharacteristically for me, this season I got to M1 with my deck containing a warcrime.

It all started when I realized normal Ice and 7-Tachyon both do not conflict with the Mitsurugi FTK (with Habakiri you can special Saji and tribute the other body, usually KOTFI or a negated Ice, still setting up for the Raider's Knight). The final deck does not contain 7-Tachyon: I was drawing too much gas too often. The card went in and out of my deck depending on my current draw luck.

I committed to the FTK figuring it lost to the same handtraps my original build lost to (mostly Droll), while punishing the board breakers that people try to use against Kewltune (Supoly, Droplet, F+V, RTyphoon's entire life and the occasional Striker). My deck is built to pivot to a standard Mitsu-Ryzeal end board if the FTK is interrupted.

Instant Fusion for Millennium-Eyes Restrict came up a lot! Basically just the 3rd handtrap answer in the same category as Called and Crossout, again super effective against Droll.

... reluctantly, Shifter, while it conflicts with the FTK, did save my bacon multiple times against Kewltune and Branded.

If this act gets Fiend Eagle or Fanatix Machinix banned, so be it "~w~

Shout out to @kagetane, the Mitsurugi helper, who probably knows more about Fydraulis variant than I do! It's actually quite an interesting handtrap....
