Notes & Combos

Operation Break The World

For people not familiar with Branded CyDra:

• Always blind 2nd
• Core + any SP/T for discard is a PB line with 12k+ dmg
• BraFu send Albaz + Herz -> Rampage = OTK
• You need Twin for Shifter and other awkward scenarios
• You need Sieger for the PB line
• Not as good as Branded Despia obv, but the best way to play Cyber Dragons as blind 2nd deck.

Full Clarification - Got this list to D2-ish earlier in the season too but was admittedly pretty hardstuck D3 with it. On this last climb i played my Zarigun Spright list to get to D1 tho so this technically never made it from D2 to D1.

Changes from the D5 list:

Out:

• Belle - mostly played it for Crossout but nobody is on it.
• Imperm - bit of a conflict with Bystials, also needed something to cut for breakers.
• Cosmic - yeah it's better to not pop Tear backrow but only getting rid of one wasn't good enough anyway, still rly good vs runick but LS + Droplet does the trick there as well.
• Banishment - even if it's really cracked vs. a lot of decks in grindy games most of time it is just too dead of a draw or BiR would've worked just as well.
• 2 BraFu - just so it's legal under the new banlist too, you'd obv still run 3 until it hits

IN:

• LS/Dark Hole/Raigeki - even if destroying Tear cards often hurts you more than them it just feels so much better vs every other deck atm to run breakers over handtraps and even vs Tear if their board isn't too cracked it can sometimes be actually good to have a big field reset to start your turn.
• Kitt - performed pretty well overall, not sure if she is actually needed but the recycle came in clutch a few games.

Also switched Fortress for 2nd MJ, sucks to not have it vs. Inspector Boarder but with all the board breakers we can cope. 2nd MJ didn't come up super often so Quaeritis etc. can for sure still be considered. The other 14 ED slots are absolutely set in stone tho imo (unless you take Quaeritis over Masq, but i'd always take Masq over 2nd MJ).

Also while i was kinda playing Shufflers cuz i thought it was funny they actually have been putting in a massive amount of work so i'd actually unironically recommend them at this point.

Anyway s/o to all the people from the CyDra channel for always being chill, having very helpful input and cheering me on <3
