Bloodrot Talks Ep. #1 - ProQuest London 1st Place Nuu Deck Tech + In-Depth Guide

[@IrekRynduch]

Great video! Probably the best guide to Nuu on YT in 2024 😀

[@BloodrotTalks]

It means the world to me to hear you say that, I've wanted to make this guide for a long time. I appreciate your kindness : )

[@IrekRynduch]

@BloodrotTalks Are u streaming on YT or twitch? I'd love to see how u play Nuu.

[@BloodrotTalks]

@@IrekRynduch We actually just put a gameplay vid out! It is CYB Nuu but I'll be posting more regular list gameplay and trying to stream soon : )

[@IrekRynduch]

@BloodrotTalks Yes, I have watched it already, but it would be nice to see more than 1 game 😀

[@BloodrotTalks]

@@IrekRynduch That is very fair, I will be streaming on KZbin when I'm able, gonna try to get a stream going this week!

[@Agachack]

Really nice video, so much details! Thank you for that. I hope to see more stuff like this about champs (even more Nuu). I haven't check yet your Nuu CYB vs Florian commentary gameplay, but I'll check that too (even if I guess Nuu CYB is maybe not a thing anymore with the recent bans.)

[@SiblingsinCardboardPodcast]

Love the vibe, love the sound, love Nuu. Easy sub.

[@BloodrotTalks]

Thank you for the kind words, we really appreciate them : )

[@troyestrema4317]

This is great! My kid was playing Nuu as his first hero when she first came on the scene. He was frustrated and packed her away to pick up Ira. I am frustrated with Jarl and have Katsu, Riptide, and Kayo always on deck but assasin has always interested me and I like the disruption! So I will take on our Nuu deck.

[@BloodrotTalks]

You both have great taste in heroes, those are many of our favs! So happy to hear the guide is helping : )

[@mateuslima8043]

Sick video!!!!!!

[@BloodrotTalks]

Thank you!!!

[@KDils69]

Awesome vid. Just started FaB and Nuu seems awesome to play. Was really cool to hear all the new lines and thanks for explaining simply to newer players.

[@BloodrotTalks]

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy giving her a spin, I'll be posting plenty more about her in the future. It means a lot that you found the guide helpful as a newer player : )

[@pinkhatboi]

Merry FlickMist!

[@maulcore]

And a Happy Nuu Year!

[@UmbralGaming]

Cracked podcast - looking forward to more

[@BloodrotTalks]

[@Vanahyzaa]

YOU ARE THE BEST ! Deck link + Sideboard ready for talishar !

[@BloodrotTalks]

Thank you so much!!! I hope you enjoyed the episode, have fun playing the deck : )

[@boserloffel4488]

Hey Nice vid! Thank you for the amazing work. So are you going to continue with the pod?

[@BloodrotTalks]

Thank you so much for watching! Yes we will be continuing the pod, I (Cass) have had a bad bout of pneumonia but we're planning to record episode 2 tomorrow : )

[@boserloffel4488]

@@BloodrotTalks Well I hope you get better soon! I played my armory with this list yesterday and had the best one so far. W against Kano L against Verdance (if i would had 1 blue i would have fatigued her) W against Oscillio

[@BloodrotTalks]

@@boserloffel4488 That is so sick to hear!!! You have no idea how much it means to know you played my deck at the armory, I'm so glad it went well : ) Sounds like you've got a lot of wizards around, show em who's boss

[@olivecat2139]

in my locals there's 2 azaleas, with good hands i manage to win but it's tough, any tips in this matchup??

[@BloodrotTalks]

It really is a tough matchup! It's also a very like... state of the game dependent matchup. If they are slinging huge on hit after huge on hit but without dominate, it's good to block whenever possible. When something is dominated, consider how able you are to just eat the on hit and disrupt them back. Inertia and seek & destroy are both countered by ponders so it's nice to play out codex when they can hit you with those. Try to deny ponders and arsenals as much as possible - it makes their turns far less scary!

[@andrewmccormack4526]

Hi. Awsome vid! Congrats on your PQ win! Just picked up Nuu as a new hero so sorry I have come to this deck tech a bit late. Can I just ask, with DIO falling out of favour, I have taken out the traps and gone back to the extra sink and the Cosmic you mentioned. Can you just tell me please what decks Cosmic is good into? Also, any thoughts on Jarl and how you would approach that match up now that it is a thing. Thanks very much.

[@BloodrotTalks]

Taking out the traps is definitely the right call, my list has been changing quite a bit lately. Cosmic is good into any deck that wants to play slow, stuff like Kassai or a more defensive Guardian. I'm not currently running it in my new list as I am focusing more on a mill-based plan into those decks using Mask of Recurring Nightmares. I would approach Jarl by abusing any blue attacks he has with Nuu's ability and trying to hold enough cards in hand to play around Blizzard and Frostbites - swinging daggers a little bit less to hold those extra resources since we have so many blues. You do, however, want to put a lot of pressure on him to avoid him breaking your Mask of Recurring Nightmares but your chi is still useful even if he does if you can get any of his good blues in banish.

[@boserloffel4488]

Heya Just played armory again. I really have some troubel playing against brute and guardian. What exactly is the gameplan? Still disrupt and go for the throat with Nuu ability or just blocking? Do we side out some chi?

[@BloodrotTalks]

Hey there! I go over it a bit in the video but you want to focus on setting up the Flick Knives/Beckoning Mistblade combo by getting 2-3 of their big blue attacks in their banished zone and waiting for a chi. You can use Pass Over, the Sacred Art, and Bonds of Attraction to help get these cards banished more easily. If you can set up a turn where you play three big blue attacks in a row it will be a huge tempo swing if it doesn't just kill them outright. You're looking to do chip damage and play somewhat defensively until you can accomplish setting up that turn. If you can get them to around 20-25 life before going for this combo you are in a great spot.
