I have recently got back into yugioh after years away. These videos have greatly helped me!

[@phantomsygo]

glad they help! thanks for watching and welcome back!

[@GunnerDuels]

I was on a very similar build and it’s definitely really fun to play. Loving all your branded content bro! Keep it up! I’ve been learning a lot from you

[@phantomsygo]

Awesome that means a lot! glad the videos are useful!

[@GunnerDuels]

@@phantomsygo definitely!! I was introduced to your channel because I was looking for branded videos because I was newer to the deck but I also really enjoy your other videos too! Keep it up bro your doing great

[@ShimiTexas]

I'm a big fan of your simple, honest and elegant videos! Thanks!

[@phantomsygo]

I appreciate that!

[@metegumus1993]

Thank you for making this Video! I just started playing Despia and this video helped me a lot❤️

[@phantomsygo]

Awesome glad it’s helping!

Having fun with this build in Master Duel but using Super Poly instead of the Kaiju package to get the deck count to 40. (Also needed 2 slots for the Maxx C) 😂 Also wanna add that a cheap alternative target for Super Poly is Starving Venom Fusion Dragon, can get it for around a dollar for those who don't want to spend big cash for Garura.

[@saitougin7210]

Cool video. Nice deck building ideas. Especially the trealament names. Just keep in mind though, that Guardian Chimera needs 3 monsters with different names. So you cannot go Aluber+EdgeImpChain+EdgeImpChain. You would have to use another monster instead of last one.

[@phantomsygo]

Good call, thanks for watching!

[@MrDongler]

great deck profile man. I also considered playing the kaiju package but the tearlament one was a brilliant idea from you 👍

[@phantomsygo]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@gekkouga-sl7lb]

Just a note on the last example, Guardian Chimera needs 3 different names to summon

[@phantomsygo]

yep true!

[@hughbasanes1858]

I'm giving this list to a friend trying to get back into the yugioh transitioning from goat format. TY for making lists like this where you opted to go all-in on the burn strategy instead of trying to create what is essentially a jank and diluted version of the deck at its higher end budget.

[@phantomsygo]

Hey I appreciate it! If budget was the concern though, note that cartesia and lubellion have both been reprinted since this video. But if you like this burn concept better then by all means go for it! I think this build might be easier to play as well to start off

[@hughbasanes1858]

@@phantomsygo I’m guessing lubellion and a small bystial package would replace the edge imp frightfur one? what would you recommend

[@conoid21594]

If I wanted to replace the tearlaments with something (I get that they’re real good I’m just weird and like visual consistency in my decks) what could I change them to?

[@phantomsygo]

in that case i might end up shifting the end goal of the deck, I'll have to think about it. Can always play more going second cards like handtraps if you just need to fill the 3 slots. Super Poly is nice.

[@grantwhelply4660]

Great profile. If going the superpoly route, what cards would you pull from the extra deck to include garura and mudragon?

[@phantomsygo]

I'd probably cut the Brigrand and then 1 Guardian Chimera

[@alimuhsen11]

do you think the deck list is still viable right now ?

[@phantomsygo]

It’s not bad as-is, but some other things are now budget that werent budget when this video was made so the list can probably be modifed to fit some other things in like Tear planets or droplets or cartesia

[@alimuhsen11]

@@phantomsygo maybe cutting the kaiju package for two carthesia two albion shrouded and two tear planets

[@abby8043]

I watched the test hands and forgive me if I am missing brain cells (I'm a woman, I'm sorry) what are your light targets for albion? I'm going to play something kinda similar to this (I'm playing a small dogmatika package and adding the edge imps, patchwork, and poly's) I was lucky enough to get cartesia and quem through trading but bystial lubellion is out of my reach.

[@markwalker2627]

Lubellion searing dragon is what you go into 1st then shuffle it back. Also never apologise because you are female

[@Nogayara]

chimera isn't budget...

[@phantomsygo]

The ultra rare is 5 dollars

[@Nogayara]

@@phantomsygo man... I hate playing Yu-Gi-Oh in Brazil The price here is still at 25 dollars range...

[@user-pc9xd5ry4g]

This is not branded despia deck

[@phantomsygo]

Ok

[@j-soulfilms]

Dude did you saw the title on the video?? Its branded despia budget deck. Common sense man
