Notes & Combos

Branded variant covers Visa engine weakness of combo interruption and also adds more option of lines mid combo which increase the deck resiliency through Verte into Mirrorjade + Rindburm next turn for Quick Play interruption. You can also optionally use Sanctifire, though I wouldn't recommend it due to soft garnet (Snow) and Sanctifire needing to wait for opp ED monster to make Mirrorjade making it vulnerable to staples like Droplet or CBTG, it's also mandatory to keep 1 card in hand as a cost which sucks if you have HT in hand.

Gameplan : Play with Visa engine as usual and end with Baron > Dis Pater > Reframing > lv.10 (optional), then make Verte with existing Light Heart & Cross Sheep / Reicheart.

Tech Choices & Tips :

  • Play fullboard lines as usual and when your combo is Interrupted make Verte with 2 of any monsters into Sanctifire / Mirrorjade dumping snow and albaz. Here's the reason why Bystial cards is actually optimal, cause it fills as handtrap and also lv 6 mats for Meek (both lv 4 or 2) that doesn't use normal summon to access Baronne or Accel Synchro on top of extra mats to make Verte depending on the board state. Bystial / Mirrorjade can also enable Dis Pater negation effect.
  • Consider playing 3 TTT in this deck for followup turn and wincon even if you draw multiple because this deck REALLY need to draw multiple combo piece to play through HT. I opt for more HT because the FTK decks roaming around in this format is insane.
  • Why no Imagining? Because TTT is just that better of a card going 1st or 2nd also there isn't a reason why you want to search Imagining over Reframing when droll is relevant in this format, hard drawing Imagining is also just terrible compared to more HT / TTT cause of mentioned Verte lines.
  • Play atleast 12 HT (Ash > Max C > Bystial > Droll > Imperm > Nib. Most decks in this format is straight up FTK equivalent if you fail to stop them, unless you lose coinflip against trap decks. Do yourself a favor for an easier time going 2nd.
  • Why 1 Scareclaw package? mainly because it cramps your main and extra slot, adding Branded & Bystial package already covers most of the deck weakness so it's only nice to have in this version. Mirrorjade GY effect almost always guarantees simplified game states then TTT, Astraloud, HT can close the game. There's also the option of accessing Astraloud through Amritara or going into Verte lines if you haven't already.
