1st Place (17-0!!) - Pure Zoodiac - European WCQ 2017 - Marcello Barberi (IT)

[@BFPieca]

dont let this 17-0 winstreak distract you from the fact that marcello has a house in france!

[@tonylamagna_7847]

XD

[@PatricioMarino]

Yes Algorithm, I will watch a 4 year old Deck Profile. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@bobs9524]

Jesse encinas He also snuck in a monster reborn.

[@BoBnfishy]

for as much hate as zoo gets, this guy definitely deserved the win. he's a very skillful player, and has great intuition. and a bit of luck, but that's always part of it. overall, well deserved win.

[@drearydoll6305]

Still wondering how someone could even doubt zoo wouldn't be going on a rampage. This guy did a good work at demonstrate what play zoo means.

[@TylerGreeneTrueMaoyuu]

Dreary doll true

[@MofizIA]

Cause Draco(Zoos) exist and they have about the same, if not a bit more, Power. They just cost about 500 bucks

[@drearydoll6305]

problem with draco zoo is always consistancy. But once drident get kicked out, master peace will take her place.

[@MofizIA]

Not even consistenty. It can build a field even better than Demise Draco. Issue is that the massive counter cards played atm (roughly 20 cards) hinder Dracos more than Zoos, since Zoos can recover easier from Strike, Controller, Chalice, Raigeki etc.

[@drearydoll6305]

Well I do feel that s consistancy issue when you can pretty much die with a single disturbtion if you don't open with an insane hand. But that s just my opinion on the matter. I see the point you are making.

[@aashup]

This guy has a sick beard

[@CosmicDogoran]

I traded my English Zoo cards for his Italians when he was in Chicago :ok_hand:

[@emildokle261]

This is cool but it is nothing compared to the fact that he has a house in France

[@ReneTheRed]

Shuffle Reborn confirmed sleeper card

[@andycalibria4246]

The card is really good for anything that wants to xyz, i liked to run it in rrs to get the all so important first monster on board in case my normal got striked/popped.

[@TheDarkMagic000]

Norden died for this... Still, best of luck to the guy!

[@edwartexe]

Norden deserved it

[@unofficialnc3724]

Norden can die 10 times for what i care

[@BoBnfishy]

i love how many comments are like this. "zoo sucks, this guy is great and deserves all his success."

[@KatsuneUndercover]

[@kingpro98]

[@Lithium2300]

[@DrQuatsch]

and now to decide what to play at worlds, because with the combined banlist, it sure ain't going to be zoos :D it probably will be draco or dinosaurs or something.

[@KompletterGeist]

Holy shit. His engish is really good for an italian! He seems like a sympathic person :)

[@rickysingh7896]

This guy has insane amount of skill

[@rickysingh7896]

Like not as a joke he went 17-0 his perfect polishing and building

[@TheDuelFactory]

If he would've said like chewing 5 Gum to your opening question I would've died lol

[@chrisgardner7016]

His accent is so enchanting :) Love it ;)

[@Kurata_1st]

[@hebrew95]

I would love to see the abc deck profile from top 32

[@TheKillzone9999]

[@JM-eu5rf]

[@MstrSleepMan]

Where did Marcello get his Hokusai 'Wave' mat from?

[@TheRealVaanmaster]

MstrSleepMan I saw it on kickstarter a while ago , it was something you could get along some cool mtg tokens , i don t know if they're sold separately , probably

[@firepuppies4086]

I wonder if anyone runs "and the band played on" stop em at broadbull

[@SHURITSTRATEGISTOFTHENEKROZ]

#RaigekiTooGood

[@couepatroopa5014]

SHURIT, STRATEGIST OF THE NEKROZ that top deck😍😍

[@SHURITSTRATEGISTOFTHENEKROZ]

TheYGOchannel Soooo lucky tho, but he did deserve to win

[@jasonstricklin2602]

SHURIT, STRATEGIST OF THE NEKROZ hey just curious how many yugi tubers do you even subscribe to I see you practically everywhere

[@SHURITSTRATEGISTOFTHENEKROZ]

jason stricklin like 30

[@jasonstricklin2602]

SHURIT, STRATEGIST OF THE NEKROZ god damn thats more than I sub to and, mainly I just stick to yugiNoNo,davinator, simply unlucky, and cyber knight, since glacticgod quit not much else to watch. I can't stand team Sam X1 for very long somtimes his content is just a pile of crap he gets way to hyped during his pack openings but I still sub to him figure he will mellow out eventually. I think I also sub to cimoooooooo to his content is very interesting.

[@ChawkyVirus]

Why not main Imperial Order instead of the 3rd Barrier ? Also are Lost Wind and Quaking MF playable in this deck provided you find space ?

[@duanedeal7139]

cHo TiMe traps are slow that's why it's more so off s turn 2 zoo deck

[@andreviana3322]

Do you guys know Yellowstar? lul This guy´s voice is absolutely just like his

[@haiyen5551]

what do you think about ZOODIAC VS D/D/D

[@vroscience]

if D/D doesnt open up Crystalwing Siegfried and 38 they are screwed

[@bluemethetys9267]

I FUCKING LOVE HIS VOICE

[@garciafever]

See, I don't mind him winning, but the fact that all of the special summoning could have been negated/stopped if Konami didn't fucking ban Vanity's Emptiness. They always ban the good cards.

[@llamaryder1]

Aaaaand then zoo opens the game, makes their incredibly power consistent opener and then your turn arrives and they flip vanity's, beating rogue decks even harder than they would have before. You have to remember that although powerful cards may help to improve your rogue/casual strategy keep up, your opponent also has access to them. They're equally abusable in already amazing decks which makes them even more powerful. The game becomes who got lucky and won the die roll or drew the broken card that should've been banned first.

[@doppelluca5816]

proud to be italian!

[@fabianbianan]

its a classic by now

[@Infovorousness]

Time is a flat circle

[@MofizIA]

"Shuffle Reborn" A clear demonstration of why the design of one card *anything* is just terrible. Except for Dragon and Rat, Zoos aren't inherently broken but the very fact that literally any card can be your entire set-up is what allows outside support to take the piss out of it

[@allthenamearestolen]

lmao mad

[@MofizIA]

"He has an opinion. Let me call him mad so I look cool"

[@cult-of-carl]

Mofiz ah the classic child response lol

[@allthenamearestolen]

nah u just mad ROFL

[@MofizIA]

use "mad" 10 times if you want. doesnt make you less of a tryhard scrub lmao

[@Marcusjnmc]

that is one awesome beard

[@davidmarshall3683]

Talking about how the mirror match is a good indication of a player's skill reminds me of the time me and Marcello played 14 games with pendulums after their 1st hit and came out 7-7. He goaded me into playing as he'd seen me online then admitted we where equally good players in the end. He's a pretty cool guy.

[@HUONGNGUYEN-ci5eh]

Yes! Zoodiacs are beaten 17 times! With another Zoodiac. T.T

[@JusticeHeroXSupreme]

Finally a pure zoodiac deck without card of demise...

[@Jason-hk6fx]

wot lol?

[@iscream4761]

[@A11sopp]

This list is awful. God knows how he went 17-0

[@Lithium2300]

Hey, I know you, didn't you top 16'd your 5 person local last weekend?

[@A11sopp]

Come on Lithium, looking at his deck, you should know better than to think what he was playing was optimal. He's playing 42 cards, he has a random Barrier in his maindeck (which should be at 3 or 0 given that it's a blowout against everything except Pure True Draco), Combo is a mediocre card, playing split ratios between Chalice and E-Con is pointless given that they're so similar that you might as well play 3 of the better card. And all of that is without getting out of standard deckbuilding theory. Good on him for doing so well, his technical play seems like it's really good (and it must be to win an event like this) but this deck definitely isn't nearly as good as it could have been.

[@tentaisensui8552]

Anthony Allsopp you going to world? no? Then shut the fuck up hahahaha

[@A11sopp]

Tentai Sensui If you can't come up with a better defence of his card choices than after the fact circular reasoning nonsense that basically amounts to saying 'it won the event so it must be good' then you not only prove my point but you also sound like an idiot.

[@tentaisensui8552]

Anthony Allsopp I didn't say anything like that. I asked if you're going to Worlds.. because you went 17-0 at your countries nationals. if you aren't because you didn't do that, then shut the fuck up. LOL.

[@Hades_Zerker]

Zoodiac is cancer burh hur hur hur takes no skill hur hur (Note sarcasm)

[@MofizIA]

>implying it *does* take skill

[@andycalibria4246]

The deck has a high floor, but a really high ceiling as well since it allows you to be really flexible and play around a lot of things. It just has too much free stuff: 1 search, 1 reborn,2 pops each turn and its hardly stoppable since every monster they can access turns into those 3 things.

[@duanedeal7139]

Leandro Vizcaino ok u go 20-0 with zoo in match and let's see if u go 19-1 or better if you can go 19-1 or better then it doesn't take skill but if u go 18-2 or worst then it takes skill

[@Hades_Zerker]

I see you guys didn't get the coment, k

[@Septiviumexe]

Zoos banned soon i hope
