Cyber Branded Deck Tech: Yugioh Cyber Dragon Deck 2022

[@quattroiv808]

Tu playmat es simplemente genial!!! Y el mazo es muy interesante, tengo las cartas asi que voy aprobarlo para ver que tal rinde!

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

Thanks! I got this off ebay. There so many cool ones

[@amaanfullmetal9091]

Nice list 👍🏻 I think super poly + garura would be a good board breaker as well

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

yeaa i think i gota pick up some those super polys soon!

[@batmenbeyont7775]

I think running 2 rampage and one megafleet instead is good cause of summoning off of Albion. Also, why not add 3 super poly and targets into the extra deck?

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

super poly is def an option I was considering. I just dont have those cards yet and also wanted to keep as many cyber drags in the extra deck as possible. The branded cards already take up 4-6 slots.

[@soljah37]

I returned back to the game recently after playing Master Duels. I stopped playing back in 2016 and had a Cyber Dragon deck that time. Now that I'm back, i've been trying to rebuild it and picking up core cards. Going with the Therion route, but now that I saw this vid, I'm thinking of putting together another Cyber Dragon deck based particularly on the fusion side with the leftover CD's, lol.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

awesome! Pretty much in a similar state. I played here and there but now since master duel is really beginner friendly, been grinding and learning that way. Therion route seems really good, I just didnt want to drop money on it just yet! Fusion cyber drag route I think is pretty fun, def more of an OTK style unless your main focus is to make Eternity Dragon unkillable. I do think these Branded cards synergize well with the whole fusion route. Cards like Albion and Lubeliojn just give us free 1 Card Cyber twins/Rampages. Let me know what you come up with!

[@nigeleu8288]

You can consider running 3 lightning storm instead of harpie and raigeki (more versatile). Infinity feels a little hard to get into imo. Esp when there isn't machine dup/galaxy soldier

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

lightning storm just little expensive but it def a better card. I also just dont love the downside of that card too if I have face up cards on the field. Def a great card for the deck!

[@redthecollector]

instant fusion + panzer would make that a bit easier. id still run 3 cydras though

[@DavidEllner]

Lol I thought of this idea too just now and I had no idea it was popular on KZbin. Always cool how we get similar fun combo decks even if they aren’t technically mainstream.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

i think its pretty spicy! I changed around some cards since this video but i will be doin an update soon!

[@DavidEllner]

@@nostalgicnighthawk yea I’m gonna try adding invokes engine too somehow since mechaba is even machine for synergy. I used to make it super wild with dna transplant to morph the whole field machine to make every turn a super poly option (definitely my most unique twist since I don’t see that ever in Meta).

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@DavidEllner the new clockwork card that should be coming out soon is that on roids. Pretty sure u might have seen! Super excited about that. The DNA transplant looks fun but just the trap aspect too it makes it little slow for comp play i guess.

[@DavidEllner]

@@nostalgicnighthawk exactly :/ makes it slow so then need to figure out how to have a decent opening to hold off a tough comeback, let alone if opening second.

[@jerco9766]

So Master Duel is getting a new pack soon that has Mirrorjade, so I assume Branded Fusion and Lubellion are also going to be in it most likely. I've been researching and have a few questions: 1. Why the Nova + Infinity? You aren't running Galaxy Soldier nor Machine Dupe to easily summon them. Plus with fewer Cyber Dragons and Herzes you have less opportunities to get 2 level 5 light machines in play. 2. Boardbreaking builds like in the video here are less ideal in Master Duel due to Raigeki being limited to 1 on there. What would be the handtrap build be like (Specifically, how much of Ash/Maxx C/Called should I run or how much more should I cut)? 3. Does Anaconda interact with Branded Fusion well, if at all? Card text on BF seems to indicate that it can't be used off of Anaconda since you link summoned Anaconda that turn. And even if it did still work, you could only fuse 1 monster. Does this mean this deck shouldn't run Anaconda? 4. Should Branded Cyber Dragons run Aluber just as a BF search? Are there good additional means of going into the Branded Fusion combo instead of just drawing into Branded Fusion?

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

i hope the cards arrive soon in MD! Thanks for all the questions! 1. It feels weird to not play Infinity so I threw one in there in case the play came up. But yea it doesnt really make any sense since the current build doesnt have many ways to summon it. I think more link plays would make more sense. Or keep the Infinity but add a Drei into the deck to make the play more viable. With more testing I should be able to figure out what to replace/add to the deck. By the end of the month I can have an updated list or something similar. Making these vids are fun! 2. For MD specifically, 2 called by is a must, also 2-3 maxx C. 3 seems too many. That card is just too good! Also evenly matched is pretty great too. I might pick up those cards soon for my real world deck. For MD I run cards like Droplet and lightning storm since they dont cost me like $50 XD. Ash is def a great card for the meta but I like board breakers better. 3. Verde does interact well! I dont run Verde since its banned outside of MD. It depends what mood I am in like if I want to practice a deck in MD or I want to climb the ladder. Most of the time I just want to practice so I try to play by the TCG banlist. 4. Aluber might be worth running but I didnt want to add too many cards outside the cyber drag archetype just yet. I am getting my feet wet with the branded stuff haha. Besides Branded fusion and Fallen Albaz, I do not see many other ways of going into the fusions/combos. I do not think its really needed since the cards are pretty crazy on their own. I might be missing some good combos and stuff but I will learn some more.

[@jotaroandtheworldofdolphin79]

Fun deck, I will try it out.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

let me know how it goes for ya!

[@3lea.strato]

have you tried dueling nexus or ygopro? I use dueling nexus to test my decks when I don't have the cards yet. also do you have a yugioh neuron profile? would love to follow and check your decks there too :P I've been thinking of trying branded too but I'm too much of a "need to make everything machine" kind of person haha. have you also heard of born from draconis? It's basically made for level 6 or higher cydra cards (especially eltanin) the lore behind eltanin and draconis is just so cool!

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

SUP! I downloaded that EDOPro and I have been testing with bot players. IDK if I am stupid or something but I cant seem to get any plays lol. I have not read any of the lore but it sounds awesome TBH! Would love testing some decks and stuff if we are able to duel on one of those platforms

[@3lea.strato]

@@nostalgicnighthawk yo, dueling against some bots do be hard sometimes haha I keep getting vanity's emptiness and stuff. Not worth testing with those XD Dueling nexus let's you play with real players on a one on one duel or 3 play duel or tag duel too. those are the most fun, plus it's just a site, no need to install anything. I think in duelingbook and ygopro you can manually invite players that you know onto there like in MD!

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@3lea.strato I tried dueling book and had no idea how to join someones game. I just downloaded that neuron app so I am fiddling wit that. MD is good but like WHY arent they up to date with all the new stuff

[@3lea.strato]

@@nostalgicnighthawk exactly man! Other platforms even allow you to try the ocg cards for your tcg deck to test it. and MD still has so many cards missing from previous years. sadge. looking forward to your yugioh neuron! It's a great place to find cards in based on which set they came in and find other people's decks. I think in dueling book you gotta make like your own server and then share it with your friends, haven't tried it yet tho

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@3lea.strato I am still not 100% sure what this neuron app is lol i feel dumb. I made a deck, and clicking around the app but can i duel people?

[@notimeleft1]

You may be able to run this deck on master duel except raigeki is limited so maybe add lightning storm or something else. The new pack being added to the game will have branded fusion and lubellion.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

i really want the branded fusion to get released. Hope it comes soon! Right now in MD i run some lightning storms like you mentioned, also some evenly matched.

[@nawid8122]

Hi great video, One question about cyber dragon infinity: If I revive cyber dragon infinity with monster reborn or cyber nächsters effect back on the field (after it was successfully xyz summoned before), can I still use his "suck up" effect and get a monster from the field as material? And using his negate effect then... Thanks and BR

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

yess you can, so one thing you can do is actually revive NOVA using Nach or Monster reborn, then XYZ summon another Infinity from the extra deck, THEN suck up a monster so Infinity will have 2 materials on it! Also just a reminder, the suck up effect is once per turn so it isnt just when it is summoned.

[@nawid8122]

@@nostalgicnighthawk alright thank you very much bro 👍🏼👍🏼

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@nawid8122 thanks for watching the vids!

[@Voigue]

bro d.d. crow came in duel devestator, the same place the silent graveyards are from

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

i gotaa get em, i just bough the silent grave on TCG player for like 25 cent sooo cheap. Doesn't really replace DD doe

[@Bruno-wt8sq]

Great list PS just want to let you know when you put text over the screen, its moving and sometimes hard to look at.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

thanks! And yeaaa idk what I did but the key frames for the blur were messed up. I didnt notice when editing since it down scales the quality!

[@jeantowerofficial]

i think the branded package in this is just too small and doesn’t sync well with the cyberdark package. I’d also cut 1 OG since this build is better without xyz plays

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

the XYZ plays is something i am cutting already, i added some super polys already and deck is awesome. The cyberdark stuff might not be good TBH but I do love the power bond too much!

[@ValSekk]

Play any single one shaddoll you like and a winda if you play the branded engine.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

I saw some decks with that spice. I think its worth it. Winda is so good. Probs in a few weeks ill splash that too and see how it feels.

[@chocolol]

Oh good! i dont think this concept, Branded Fusion & Cyber Dragon! Its good!! But can you show playing this recipe? I want to know how using Branded Fusion and Mirrorjade in this recipe

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

going to be recoding a video tonight on some of the cool things to do with this deck. Should be released in a day or so!

[@zanetruesdale2994]

Top deck 👏

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

nice NAME

[@razielcroft1751]

Doesn't the branded engine slow the Cyber dragon down i know it's amazing with Red Eyes since lvl 7 fusions and stuff but with Cyber Dragons idk

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

branded fusion is a one card combo to get a fusion summon and Rampage out. IMO it speed its up and is able to make more plays!

[@razielcroft1751]

@@nostalgicnighthawk idk i played against that exact deck it's not that hot it's like having a Dragoon in extradeck it takes consistency out maybe I'm wrong probably i am but it feels like u put 3 diferent engines in one deck

[@razielcroft1751]

@@nostalgicnighthawk and why not insted of Jizukiru why not Nibiru i mean u can really stop a combo deck with Nabiru....

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@razielcroft1751 i guess my thoughts are the cyber drags is the main part of the deck, then 5 cards go to the branded engine and about 6 go to the cyberdark engine. So really only 2 mid size engines but the cyberdarks I don't really consider it a separate engine since it synergies well with OG cyber drags. I think these additions actually add to the consistency in a sense where more plays can be made. The more I play the more I will see but seems fun regardless!

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@razielcroft1751 NIbiru can be for side but i wouldn't main that. Jizukiru is always live and people cant really play around it. People can play around Nib by not summoning 5 monsters. Also jizikiru can easy be sucked up by Fortress drag where the Nib token could be a problem. Def a meta call like if there a lot of combo decks out there then maining nib would make a lot of sense. Not sure if that is the meta ATM but a consideration!

[@Ray-hd7th]

dude this deck is awesome. But the branded fusion just only can take one now .is this deck still can play now?😂😂

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

oo did it get limited??? I havent been up to date with the banlist. I think that hurts the deck a LOT but there are a few branded cards that can search branded fusion so deck is still viable i would think

[@Ray-hd7th]

@@nostalgicnighthawk in ocg branded fusion has limited to 1 so sad

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@Ray-hd7th card is SO good though, tis sad tho

[@mecurseyoumimikyu4701]

This is just a cyber dragon deck with albaz in it. Albaz is doing no work in this deck like at all. Overload fusion is way easier to use then albion... and soon it will be searchable with its new support card. Also most of the cyber dragon fusion support locks you in to machine which isn't perfect synergy with branded. Think you should keep them separate tbh.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

I feel you could say that about any deck tho, like xxx deck with DPE engine, or any deck with the shadoll engine. Any deck is going to have its archetype then some engine thrown into it to add some spice. Branded fusion and the Fallen addition to the deck gives us a free Rampage/twin dragon off branded fusion. That just allows for 3x more starters getting us to an OTK. Overload fusion does require 2x monsters in the grave or on the field and only gives us one fusion. Branded fusion doesnt need any monsters on the field or grave since you can just send from the deck and gets us 2 Fusions! There are cards that will lock us into only machine types but I would say its not that prohibiting. We dont need to play all of those cards during the same turn. 100% a consideration so with some testing and stuff I will see if its fun or not. I appreciate the feedback!

[@bugmanzgaming9054]

What new support card are you talking about?

[@CatGuy969]

Why would you mix something so beautiful and cool as Cyber Dragons with something so disgusting and vile as Branded? Yuck

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

trying to spice it up and experiment with some other stuff! I am back to a pure cyber build. It is more fun. Might not be as competitive but I like playing the pure build more
