You can set boarder then flip it next turn if one is already on the field. It happens when the game state is simplified or they keep passing turn and you can barely use Runick spells.

@@sinistergaming_tcg ohhhhhh dang!!! I didn't even think about that

If you’re having a hard time going 2nd, I think the Amano is fine at 2 tbh. The only board you can’t crack is the memento fiendsmith board with Amano because they have trap interactions. At some point when you start going first, you will draw 2 Amano and make your demise weaker or just straight up draw into them. Can swap the boarder and Amano. I’m also testing shifter in the side in place of dogwood and finding success there when I don’t see Amano or sphere mode.

I’ve considered main sphere mode. It’s possibly the move based on Niagara results!

Honestly, never tested it but Desires has always treated me really well. I just don’t like that card scanner is quite heavy on going first and living through the first turn.

Prices are very insane! This deck is great if you want to remain competitive yet budget. Would recommend to learn the other decks fairly well to understand how they crumble, think that’s what separates a solid stun player from your average.

That sounds like a literal skill issue on your end. Wish you luck on getting more friends!

Sometimes your board gets clunky. You make summon a Munin with an inspector boarder predicting if your opponent has cosmic. After some time, they may begin not to play any cards until they can make a big push, so you can’t use Runick cards because the EMZ is clogged. In that case, you will use SP so that way in a new chain after using its effect, you can hugin protect again. EDIT: Also I’m in simplified game states where you are top decking you can go hugin, get fountain and make S:P, holding onto Fountain until you get your next spell.

@@sinistergaming_tcgfair enough! Btw, any tips when going first? Do you take any runick card out? Or do you only take floodgates?

Only golden droplet depending on the matchup. You want access to Hugin protect / fountain early and save judgment for cosmic. Yes, typically a couple floodgates come out for the judgments. Some floodgates like rivalry and gozen are bad vs tenpai for example. You wouldn’t need them in the first place.

@@sinistergaming_tcg thank you for the tips! I've been really struggling with sidding, because I'm playing 3 judgments and 2 tyrants on the side deck, and I can't really figure out how to get 5 slots free

Typically for going 2nd: - Swap Boarder for Amano - Golden Droplet, Smiting Storm, and Dispelling for any 3 of (like sphere mode) - 1 Desires, -1 synchro zone, -tirade - 1 any floodgate that doesn’t work well in a match (gozen, rivalry, tcboo). Then typically goes in 1-3 cosmic depending on the matchup and even 2 judgment going 2nd against tenpai or a deck with no negates. For going first I will take out 1 golden droplet, any bad floodgate(s) for 3 judgment. You typically want to open 1-2 runick spells to protect vs harpies in G3 going first.

Love this, thanks ​@@sinistergaming_tcg

Maybe consider siding the 3rd when you know you are going first!

Thank you! Which deck or round did we play?

@@sinistergaming_tcg round 3 and I played tenpai haha

Runick stun match up into tenpai is pretty good for runick stun.

Like Wes mentioned, it’s a pretty favorable matchup but you can lose if you’re too reckless!

​@@wesmoorer3638well not really, it depends on the build: most of the time tenpai decks has lime 19/20 board breakers ahah

@ilgattoyuumi I mean, yeah, that is true. I mean, you have Hugin to protect, slumber to stop attacking, Geri as defense, a Syncro zone so they can't attack with their main deck monsters, and one day of peace. I can see if they draw the right combination of board breakers it could be very bad. Oh you have flashing fire on monsters and destruction on field spell

@@wesmoorer3638 yes, in theory is all good, in game is a bit different 🤣

You cant, but playing dark fusion turnes a semi-brick into another way to grab a fusion spell.

It affects every deck, best thing we can do is prepare lines that commit 1-2 extra deck summons like a Guardian Chimera line + Mythical King to send.

Good catch, worst case you can fuse the bodies away in that instance. Thanks for watching!

Tell me this is cap! (I can def share if not)

@@sinistergaming_tcg haha no cap I’m serious

Horrible yubel AND FK SE matchup. Not the time to play it!

You don’t lose to any board breaker other than tenpai’s raigeki + dark hole together. Diabellze will carry you through droplet, eclipse, evenly, etc. I also mainly make Caesar and bridge the engine like in these combos, but Desirae is very useful when playing cards like Metaltronus in the side. It just depends on your local meta.

Glad you got ideas from it. There’s so much to cover with this deck you can play it however you want!

Hey, you can fuse 2 edge imps to make him, but you can’t summon him by banishing from grave. It requires 2 level 6 or higher fiends which is basically engraver, magnum, or mythical king berfomet. Just letting ya know!!

@@sinistergaming_tcg reading is hard lmao I may have don’t that at locals 😭

Drops tomorrow! There’s so much to cover, but maybe I can also do a video of test hands or how I would play out hands. Most of the time you play with your whole hand in Chimera combos.

Tomorrow!

Look for it tomorrow!

I’ll cover some tomorrow, there’s honestly so many lines to cover 😅

Coming out tomorrow!

Hi, it was from a CCG. Got it on eBay. Search "Chainsaw Man CCG Anime Waifu Doujin Holo Foil Card"

I have yet to go into S:P but Ty-phon is particularly nice when you’re D barriered without Apprentice! I’d say the Chaos angel comes up the most out of all the non-fusions.

@sinistergaming_tcg Hoping to get at least a Ty-phon to at least practice with it a little, would it be worth having the 2nd copy of King of Phantom Beasts instead of the S:P if on a budget? I've got it, but seen a lot of people playing Pure and dropping it to 1

The board I would consider the most optimal would be Terahertz(With gatchiri effect, which would mean an 8000 unaffected monster, which likely means you are not dying), Heatsoul (Which helps keep the resource momentum, if he survives until your turn, thats a +3 situation), Cynet Conflict Set and both Pegasus(Synchro) and Desavewurm(Fusion) in the Grave. Essential 1 Wall, 2 Negates, 1 Shuffle back. If you want to go beyond the bounds you can extend into Code Talker and Cynet Backdoor Set (As another "Compulse" type of disruption). However, I would not consider that optimal(And only a preference), since you are likely to not get otked, and those extra 2-3 cards can be used to push hard on the crackback. Essentially, one should be smart about what to negate with Conflict and the Fusion to dwindle down their opponent and then have a smooth ride on turn 3.

@@TheLaisha10 Step by step for the main combo?

​@@TheLaisha10would love to see a combo video/ test hands I possible. Really like the deck profile ❤❤

That's correct, I chose to not respect Purrely. The deck is not in a great place this format. Ghost Ogre and Dimensional Barrier are 2 very popular cards being played right now for Tenpai and both are really strong against Purrely and as a result the deck has been nerfed indirectly by the format. However, if you do see yourself in a game against Purrely, Forbidden Droplets is still a great answer against a Noir with 6 or Less Materials (As soon as they use Noir effect). If your locals is filled with Purrely you can always make adjustments to the side, and put in Kaijus/Herald. - Jesus

Swords is mainly the option I use for Melodious. Which as you know will turn off the main disrupts (Bounce/Banish effects) and on top of that turn off the protection lock (Battle,Destruction,Targetting) that they setup. While Book of Eclipse provides the same blanket effect, its a card that can easily be countered by Ash blossom. It might be true that it can act as an "Ash Bait" but for this Deck you will have a much easier time playing through an Ash than playing through the Melodious Standard board. - Jesus

@@sinistergaming_tcg makes sense! If you do wanna give eclipse more of a reason to put in over swords though, I will add that if you play against tenpai going first then you can flip it when they have white and red dragon in the battle phase and it’s basically like d-barrier but they can’t link either. Yeah, they’ll get a draw 2, but it’s better than losing if they get to that point. Still tho, swords is great.

Cynet Conflict is mained. Also, I have provided a full decklist in the description. - Jesus

It plays pretty smoothly, right now Forbidden Droplets is really strong against all the top decks(Snake eyes, Branded, Voiceless, Melodious), with the exception of Tenpai, however the deck natually beats Tenpai with Terahertz. - Jesus

@@sinistergaming_tcg 🤙🏼great to hear, how do you feel about triple tactics thrust?
