Cherubimon VS Dominimon!! | Digimon Card Game: EX6 Infernal Ascension Riot (ROUND 1)

This is Round 1 of the Infernal Ascension Riot, a tournament featuring 8 decks from the 6th theme booster of the Digimon Card Game: Infernal Ascension. The first two decks to clash are Cherubimon and Dominimon. With recent support from ST17, BT16 and EX6, it is now possible to make a pure Cherubimon tribal Alliance deck that can put up a decent fight! Just like the old Alliance deck, it specialises in swarming the field with small bodies and overrunning the opponent with powerful multi-Alliance attacks. The new Cherubimon support also enables control tactics such as suspension and DP minus. On the other hand, the Yellow Dominimon (feat. Two Great Angels deck) is a spin on Vaccine toolbox with a focus on Angel Digimon. Boasting powerful defence by being able to swarm high level Angels. give them Blocker plus protection and disrupt the opponent with two ACEs, it is a deck that seizes victory by outlasting the opponent. Who will win in this clash within the Three Great Angels?

APOLOGIES FOR THE DELAYS ON THIS. It took quite a bit longer than I expected as I was/am rusty (haha) on both DCG/video editing. BUT I GUESS I'M BACK. Things are less hectic now but I am still busy with work and life, so I will try my best to continue uploading matches at a pace I'm comfortable with. I may not be able to refilm matches but please let me know if there are any misplays I missed so I can take note of them - feeling a bit nervous as it's been a while and I'm very much still in the process of warming back up.

[@user-ff6qv8eo7p]

Hello friend thanks for gameplay If it's possible please make a tournament for bt16 Thanks.

[@Muqriez]

​@@user-ff6qv8eo7p It will most likely come, give Rust the time he needs and we will get some satisfying tournaments

[@MrBlastpanda]

Do yo thang man take your time

The King is Back. I really missed your Tournaments. You are the best Digimon KZbinr.

[@xandercrosby3757]

Not meaning to rush you or be ungrateful that you're back, but didn't we ask you to do BT15 before BT16, and by extention, this tournament?

PROLOGUE TO THE INFERNAL ASCENSION RIOT: Inside a transparent laboratory vat, the Crest of Friendship floated within a current of azure data. Suddenly, the flow of the current intensified, its colour transforming into a dark and ominous violet. Sparks flashed. Vibrations pulsed through the vat. And slowly but certainly, bit by bit, the blue outline of the Crest of Friendship was corroded by the encroaching violet. Standing before the vat, Barbamon smirked. "Is the experiment proceeding well?" The voice came from Daemon, who entered the laboratory with Lilithmon in tow. "Exceedingly so." Barbamon turned to face his guests. "A key to the Holy Realm is finally within our grasp." Lilithmon's eyes narrowed. "That tiny thing is supposed to open the gate for us? A gate that all seven of our powers combined can't even dent?" Barbamon sniggered. "Not from the outside, Lilithmon my dear, but the inside." "The inside?" Lilithmon's brows furrowed in confusion. "How?" At that very moment, the vat stopped rumbling. The sparks faded. The flow of the current slowed, but its colour never returned to its original bright azure. It remained tainted in violet, the same colour that now pervaded every byte of the Crest of Friendship. With a deepening smirk, Barbamon passed his left hand through the glass and claimed his prize. "Why," he sniggered. "With the power of 'friendship' of course." TO BE CONTINUED...

I really missed your tournaments, it is always a great way to see the new cards and thematic decks in action. Welcome back king

[@R0boSushi]

Great to see you back! Always fun to see both decks do their thing. I also wanted to add something that was missed that wouldn’t have affected the game at all but worth noting. Around the 3:15 mark when you digivolve Patamon using its effect into BT15 Gatomon, since the security is reduced at the same time that the digivolution is complete, Gatomon is able to trigger its All Turns effect. The principle is the same as if Gatomon is played from security using the effect of ST10 Mastemon. Keep up the good work and excited to see the rest of the tournament!

[@rustmarrow]

Thanks man! Yup I accidentally missed it oops. Must have gotten a little too excited when I saw the combo potential of my Security haha

[@ZephyrBW]

Dude that fight was sick. Honestly I thought it was Cherubimon's round but nope even, when I saw it I still can't believe Dominimon somehow pulled out an upset and came back with the win.

[@timothyng9943]

The best tournament battles channel is back finally 🙌

[@amateurishauthor2202]

3:45 with the new ruling, the Gatomon sees itself leave security when it's evolved onto, but not when trashed, as it's playing itself back from trash. so Dominimon would have had 1 extra memory, unsure if it would have changed things

[@joa-rpg7706]

Welcome back Rust, really miss your matchs, glad to see you again :D On thing, at turn 2 for dominimon, when pata evolve into bt15 gato, its gain 1 memory because sec was removed, its just like dorumon when atached to sources. regards

[@christopherbennett5858]

Welcome back, Rust. And an advent of angels descends for your return. Can’t deny, this is going to be fun.

[@kyubi427]

That combo that cherubimon did was so cool! Thanks for showing it off, makes me really want to make the deck when fully out here in NA

Welcome back my dear good Sir!!! We've missed your contents

[@betahammer3566]

My friend just got into this game and he was interested in building an Angel deck, so thank you for returning with this deck recipe for Angemon!

[@GiftOfKnowledge-np9vg]

Glad to have you back Rust; your videos are some of the best on the site at showing off what new decks can do. And this returning feature, an epic clash of the three great angels, is no exception. Let’s see; looking at the upcoming matches, I’d say I’m rooting for the Seven Great Demon Lords, Shakamon, and Mastemon. Shakamon is probably the biggest underdog on that list, but as one of the most surprising new decks in EX6, I really hope it can pull something off so we can see more of it.

[@neostorm9730]

Im so happy your coming back to do these tournaments they are so fun!!!

[@CodenameJD]

It's so good to see you back, it mostly makes up for the deck I wanted to win losing 😂

[@bugking1413]

I'm glad to see tournaments back! Cherubimon had a really great showing, and you convinced me on the power of the st17 Lopmon. Definitely think I'll add a couple copies of bt4 Lucemon for extra dp and recovery since it probably helps cover Cherubimon's defensive weakness, but this list is a great starting point!

[@SylviaMoonbeam1127]

It’s wild how close the Cherubimon/Lopmon deck actually came. They were so close to victory, only to have it snatched from them at the last second. An awesome battle for sure. It’s too bad we didn’t get to see your Cherubimon Vices come out (other than the X form, but idk if I’d count that), I’m curious as to why you run the version from ST17 and not the EX4 or EX6 versions

he's back nice

[@videogamaker2117]

Welcome back!!

[@myrkurRT]

When patamon digivolves into gatomon from security, it also triggers her effect. Giving you another memory.

[@winstonwijaya9771]

This is not true, if Gatomon is trashed from sec, it is still in the trash hence do not gain the memory

[@rustmarrow]

@myrkurRT is right! When Patamon evolves into Gatomon from Security (or through Emissary of Hope / played by Revelation of Light), Gatomon is never sent to the Trash first so her [All Turns] can resolve immediately when she's evolved / played! I accidentally missed it oops!

[@isaacng5240]

THE KING HAS RETURNED! Oh man though, these matchups do not look great for my favourite decks. Unless Ragna gets ST Brywe into sources it’s definitely gonna die to 7DL. And even with that 7 GDL has their option removal Shakamon vs Diabolomon is also a tough matchup. Unless Shaka is running Venus and Valkyrie ACE as their 6s, it’s gonna be a rough one

[@digirockmon327]

FINALLY, PEAK CONTENT! Good to have you back, Rust. Everyone's super excited about this tournament, but I have to ask... What about BTs 15 & 16?

[@rustmarrow]

I might get back to them if I can make time in the future! But it looks like the next possible lull period will only be after BT18 as we have monthly sets until then

[@joshuanieze5492]

YEEEEEES HE'S BACK! MAN I MIST THESE GAMES !!

[@Muqriez]

You were dearly missed, Rust! Glad to see you're finally back! The Angels were insane with this one, security manipulation has never been a greater threat. But hey, Cherubi's not so bad herself. Being able to delete and is honestly a deadly combo, erasing what's left on your opponent's field. Also on 3:20, are you aware that when you digivolved BT15 Salamon into BT15 Gatomon, you would gain 1 memory from her [All Turns] as the timing of Gato being placed in the Battle Area, and the security being reduced is the same?

[@rustmarrow]

Yep I'm aware! Accidentally missed it oops. Must have gotten a little too excited when I saw the combo potential of my Security haha

[@bengathetiger3569]

This tournament feels like it's gonna be a shadow game tournament

[@shapeoffour2319]

Cherubi go go! Cherubi go go😍 Also, welcome back my man!

[@Missure_E]

Happy to see your back. I fucking hate the Dominimon deck though. Yellow was toxic enough to play against, it didn't need to get worse. Really hope we got more cards like Kongou.

[@alexpaz91]

Welcome back

[@munay5034]

Welcome back rust! 🎉

[@vanguardtrainer924]

Man I missed these tournaments videos. Sadly I’ll have to drop Digimon as I’m moving and nowhere around where I’m going carries the game which is unfortunate I’ll still definitely keep watching the videos and keeping up with the game just in case I can jump back in though.

[@rustmarrow]

That's unfortunate man, but hope you can continue keeping up with the game through reveals and videos!

[@lalokx7577]

I know is a lopmon thematic deck, but In my opinion, changing the 2 lopmons ST17 and 2 Lopmon X for 4 of the Terriermon ST17 will help, cus you can play any of the tamers just for 2 or any other lopmon for 1. IMO that Terriermon is almost mandatory now in almost any green deck and more on the Terrier/Lopmons decks. But excellent video, I was thinking on how I will modify my deck when EX06 comes and this help me a lot.

[@rustmarrow]

Yep I definitely agree! Couldn't resist making me a full Cherubimon tribal build though... especially when it ended up being a fallout match between the 3 Great Angels

[@deaththekid201]

My thought was add maybe 2 bushi agumon because both x snti snd ace can play it and the rush could get you the game

[@gabrielramos1736]

Finally!!!

[@pockytung2084]

Welcome back Rust very good match and editing again. There is a slight misplay I spotted and maybe can be fixed in the next video. Patamon when digivolve to Gatomon from security the effect of Gatomon seeing security reduce will trigger and causing extra +1 memory from this effect. This also applies to Revelation of Light (BT15-092) if playing Gatomon from this option.

[@rustmarrow]

RIGHT. Can't believe I missed that! Will make sure I don't make the same mistake in the next round!

[@thunderhogTH]

​@rustmarrow its a very easy thing to miss, and ive had some argue if its a real rule constantly, but its a thing. Luckily it didnt seem to affect the game that much asside of putting cherubi to 1 instead of two in their final turn, but both times it didnt really matter and the worst outcome is you'd have to not play green training and just evolve Wendigo into antylamon to naturally draw the chrubimon that was already on top.

[@MTT563]

Spoilers Damn, yellow winning round 1 with pure offense again? This always seems to happen, yknow? Even for incredibly weak decks like BT10 Sakuyamon. Hmmmm….. Jokes aside, it’s great to have these back! There’s really nothing else on KZbin quite like them, and it’s always nice to see such a high volume of the new decks and what they’re capable of. Especially less “exciting” decks like Shakkamon. And as much as I’d like for Cherubimon/Lopmon to get some kind of wins (like at all, it’s not gotten any tournament representation), it’s not like Terriermon won’t be getting some wins next tournament

[@izukazephoenix]

ooohh, i've played the ragnaloard VS SGDL with a freind of mine. they have issues trying to deal with the big guy once he has his 'true shield' up (both bywrs underneath him)

[@FabschOblivion669]

[@LuisTheSaint]

@9:00 awesome use of alliance! this got me thinking if you have enough bodies can you use antylamon alliance from its text, digi-volve from the inheritable & then use cherubimon alliance from its text all in one swing?

[@Dylan-vs6sf]

Cherubimon Alliance doesn't trigger because it wasn't there when the attack was declared.
