Notes & Combos

I am very happy to hit Master from unranked this season after not playing for 2 years! This is my 2nd real season in general as my first was with Labrynth two years back before I quit YGO MD after playing for one month only. I used to play OCG but it was many years back! Really excited and happy that I made Invoked. Alright let's stop yapping and talk about some card choices!

Hand Traps Lineup - I ran Ghost Ogre, Effect Veiler, Ghost Mourner and Imperm because honestly I was winning against other decks quite a lot and the decks I'm facing A LOT in Diamond 1 were like Elfnote and other meta decks that doesn't care about Droll. Droll feels like a strong card where you can just instantly win if you face a rogue deck but I haven't been facing them while grinding for Master so I opt-ed for this HT lineup which to my surprise actually worked really well!

Magistus Package - Just very good and convenient, allow you to set up some play and do easy Baronne, sometimes bricking with Crowley might suck but the math for that is it happens rarely so you just accept that and don't dwell on that 1 bad game.

Triple Tactic Talent - This was a really surprising pick for me, initially I only played 1 copy then I realise I win every single time I activate it successfully so I bumped up to 2 copies and it worked really well. Without remembering exactly, I won about 10-15 games from activating TTT successfully and there were only 3 games where I lost despite activating TTT (I remember this clearly because I was VS Elfnotes where I went 2nd and it didn't matter).

Extra Deck - ED line up is pretty standard pure Invoked stuff, I don't run cards like Caliga and Elysium as I find them hard to use (maybe I am just lazy), I opt-ed to use De Anima instead for board breaking abilities when going 2nd and it definitely won me many games, especially when paired with the field spell
