You realize that most of those shining sarc players were using the loaner deck, which was pretty awful.. Either disrupt their combo with one interruption or break their board with two breakers.

@penguinsondrugs8 , I went with Cubics. Going second is the call and their spell negate setup is very disruptive for my deck. I'm not saying that there wasn't a deck that could beat Shining consistently. I'm saying that players don't enjoy the event under its stipulations. They just go with the loaner or with the most toxic deck for the event instead of creating something special. The game has almost three years already. There is no excuse to not be creative with cards that most should have already. Players don't know enjoyment. Most are meta driven and its sad.

It is subjective, by I personally liked the 50 cards more. I tried 40 during the Diamond climb, and while it is indeed better VS Tenpai, I feel like it lack the versatility for random matchups.

I see mommy, i click

Yeah. Truly a worthy opponent. We followed each other after the duel.

Thank you! I'm glad my video inspired you! Regarding your question, I think you are referring to Odd-Eyes Arcray Dragon. It is basically a second Z-ARC you can summon off Soul should you draw into multiples. But the biggest reason for running it is to make the Z-ARC "stay" after you summon the original one from soul. At 21:40, the Original Z-ARC would be returned to the Extra Deck because of Soul's effect. So before it happen, I summoned Arcray using the Original Z-ARC to avoid losing body (and because it is always treated as Z-ARC, Soul's grave effect is still usable, effectively making the "Z-ARC Challenge" permanent for your enemy)

@@ItsumiRivary Oh I get it now, that would explain a lot, I always thought it was just a filler Extra monster but it makes a lot of sense now. Thank you for taking the time to explain everything. Really looking forward more of your Dino videos!

Handtraps are optional in Dinomorphia, as the deck has ways to break established boards with the combination of Frenzy, Ferret, and Counter Traps. I just cut Ash since the FIRE meta and had little problem without it since.

@ItsumiRivary ic thx for the answer

But its expensive

For this season, I only summoned it once during my Diamond climb for Kentregina Control (you can see it in the Voiceless Voice matchup on my previous video). Other than that, it is very rare to summon Stealth. Past seasons I used it to lock the opponent's Bystial hand effect when their LP is low enough.

Welcome! I usually banishes TY-PHON, Arcray, and one Regina. Additional three cards are usually Brave-Eyes, S:P, and Laggia.

I fear no man.. but that thing? _Red Reboot_ It scares me.

Iron Thunder and Solemn Judgment should be your friends in that case. Just play 6 solemn judgments and I'm pretty sure you will see at least 1 spell/trap negate in your starting hand. I actually run X3 each, plus sonic and a single copy of red reboot.

Your welcome! I'm glad to be of help. It's okay even if you still lose some games. You will lose less the more you practice against them. Regarding the deck size, I run additional starters compared to the 40 card build (more Dig, Trap Tricks, Wannabee), so it didn't brick as often.

Thank you! You got this!

Thank you! That's an interesting combination! Good luck on your climb too!

Terima kasih! Semangat terus!

If you are going first, just do the usual strategy. Rex will handle their rituals. Negate Lo if you can as she can search their in-engine out to Rexterm (Radiance) If going second, I suggest Imperming Lo or Skull Guardian (whichever they summon first) to reduce the chance they will have Radiance in their end board. Dinomorphia is most vulnerable during the turn they set their backrow, so preventing Radiance access (which can usually pop 2 of our backrows before it can be activated) is your best bet. On their third turn, the strategy should be the same as if you are going first. Summon Rex, prevent Radiance. You usually will have no problem with Skull Guardian Itself with ample Counter Traps (Strike, Irin Thunder, Intact) Hope it helps!

@@ItsumiRivary thanks, I will learn👍

We all have been through that, my friend. The Vietnam war Flashback.

Thank you. Against Tenpai, I prefer to draw counter traps that can directly deal with their breakers, hence the lower deck size and the cut of the Labrynth Package, which only help in the grind game.

Yeah. I initially had a rough start too. The matchups was too random during D5-D4

Thank you! I'd like to run 3 each as well, but I only have 2 at the moment.

Scareclaw Kash negated his effect in the battle phase

I usually prevent their starters or Nightmare pain to touch the field. Soul of the Supreme king can help against them by summoning Brave-Eyes.

Hello. Strike is important to ensure your Starters (Domain, Frenzy) don't get countered by Ash or other monster-based negates your opponent may have, which are very common when going 2nd. (Judgment can't compensate for this as it can't negate monster effect) Due to this, running Strike is worth it even if it potentially can be dead if drawn later on (it is not too often to draw Strike post your first turn, and, as niche as it sounds, you still have an option to summon Stealthbergia to make it live again)

It is usually not used because Reversion need some setup. It needs a fusion already in field, as well as a counter trap already in the grave. I tried to use it in this build because I want to test it after a long time not running it (also the artwork is the hardest among all Dinomorphia cards)

Same thing happened in 19:22 The trap flips him down but his effect still was applied. Can someone explain to me what really happened please?

Yes. If Z-ARC is face down upon resolution, its effect will not be negated even if it was summoned via Soul.

@@ItsumiRivarythank you very much for the answer.

@@ItsumiRivary I never even realized that, so far I've been playing simultenous equation cannon for a board wipe but this is much easier

Thank you! I used larger decksize because I like to run utility cards, while also reducing the chance to draw the bricks such as Diplos. Wannabee is a good choice in a trap-centric build for consistency improver, although it is a bit awkward against backrow decks or decks that run Shifter.

When I saw the username, I knew that the duel would be fire. Surely enough, it is.
