Notes about climb

Decided I wanted to climb with a fusion deck this season and Branded was in a good position so I decided to just send it. Main reason I switched from Math to Branded was because of Vanquish Soul. I just don’t like playing against the deck. It's not broken or anything. I just don’t enjoy both playing or playing against it. Pretty easy climb to m5 so far though.

**Card choices/techs **

  • Deck is more or less standard but ratios are a bit different.

  • Superpoly is the going second tech card, I only run two because I refuse to run three in some matchups it simply does not do anything.

  • I run Branded Banishment its basically a superpoly on legs and of they get your Mirrorjade in grave you can use its banished effect again.

  • Bit heavier on the Bystials because Mathmech is so prevalent.

  • Don’t like fusion deployment it’s decent in some situations but I prefer other cards.

  • Cartesia almost was never relevant in the games I was having maybe because I’m just getting used to piloting the deck but I’ve only ever used her to dodge targeting effects once or twice.

  • No Branded lost because it is simply one to many cards that could potentially do nothing turn one decent card but one I am not the biggest fan of.

  • Do not use thrust or fusion deployment after some testing it feels really bad and thrust is a dead card turn one if they dont activate a monster effect.

Extra Deck

Literally the most standard Branded extra deck only difference is the addition of Brigrand the Glory Dragon it can be sent to grave to special summon or add to hand a Tri-Brigade monster or Fallen of Albaz it was very useful turn three and come up a surprising amount of times

Endnotes

The climb was decently fun so far but kash is a sucky matchup. I will most likely be testing out a build that has branded in high spirits and once the dinomorphia secret pack comes out I will be trying a 60 card Dinomorphia Branded pile abomination.

Good luck to everyone and their climb and may your hands never brick and you pack pulls be filled with UR.
