Notes & Combos

A brand new fusion archtype is available to us!

Chimera has a very consistent gameplay loop to handrip and generate resources via quick-play fusion, while setting up GY resources that serve as both followup and disruption.

Really fun new deck, reminds me a lot the old Branded Despia decks, before we had Bystials.

Fairly high hand trap count, as I feel them to be very necessary in the meta we're in.

Gamma was especially good, both at protecting your own plays and being amazing going 2nd, due to negating and destroying a monster.

For this list I aimed to maximize Branded Fusion access while minimizing your reliance on normal summons for the Branded engine.

Once you get to your Branded engine, it gives you access to the Chimera side of the deck, by fusing into Rindrumm and sending Gazelle to the GY you can search your Coatl, which discards itself to search your best normal summon, Swordknight.

Once you get to that, you can go into your standard Chimera plays, setting up a handrip, a monster negate, a targeting negate and a quick-play fusion on the opponent's turn.
