Tenpai is basically just loading up 25+ handtraps, 8 of which are essentially turnskips. The players that want to not just play a cheese deck that is Tenpai just shifted more towards SE/Diabellstar lore pile than Yubel since it just bricks less (it's just a better deck).

[@justice8718]

People surprisingly don’t realize that Blue Eyes now bricks far less than Yubel because it can work with only one Blue eyes white dragon.

Memento has lines that can play around Handtraps, end on multiple diverse disruptions and have pretty much 18 Starters. Memento as a Deck should never be slept on because they have a surprising number of advantages to them

Lots of starters but they are extremely telegraphed, basically if they don't draw quickspells they are super predictable

[@zerochill4096]

@@apocalipsenearby Isn't that just how most Decks play nowadays? It's either you draw into ways to extend through or dodge Handtraps or you end your turn

[@apocalipsenearby]

@@zerochill4096 ye, that's why this format sucks. Memento and yubel kinda are just weaker snake eyes, who are suffering from the same problem.having super strong one card lines that are super telegraphed and don't really have outplay mechanic, unlike decks like tearsvor branded

[@zerochill4096]

@@apocalipsenearby Memento at least ends up on an interesting board, but honestly agreed. A lot of it has to do with certain generic Extra Deck cards plaguing the game and how every Deck can use them but certain Decks do so better than other Decks. I mean yeah lingering Handtraps are an absolute pain and they always will be, but now more than ever people really underestimate how dumb the generic/semi-generic Extra Deck cards have gone. Why did they make more Link-1s with powerful effects that give you access to an absurd engine? Why are cards like I:P and Apollousa allowed to continue to exist? Hitting Snake-Eye isn't good enough because it's a symptom of a larger problem of Decks being able to access generic Extra Deck stuff that dwarfs the power of other Decks in general

[@Endershock1678]

@@zerochill4096 I mean OCG aside, that’s why so many liked the TCG ban list that hit Baronne and Barroload. It didn’t do anything to Snake Eyes, but it was starting to deal with a problem that was making the game worse, strong, easily accessible extra deck bosses, and a lot of top players are hopping that means cards like Appo go along with it.

I wonder if we'll be watching Shire's deck profile for 1st place in a few months

[@SheruMuko]

I have a question that I want to ask. I am planning on trying out something absolutely crazy. A deck of 40 non engine cards and 20 one card starters. It sounds crazy and it most likely will not work as intended but I want to believe it will work. More often than not I would open a hand full of hand traps, anti hand trap cards, and board breakers. My side deck would literally be only extenders. I could take out the non engine that doesn’t work and add in extenders to help with the deck. What deck am I doing this with? @Ignister Edit I forgot to actually ask my question. Do you think it is worth giving it a try? In Master Duel I will need and I am not joking 1230 UR crafting material and 600 SR crafting material. It will be the most expensive deck I will ever build.

[@knmrt2760]

[@I_am_Kuro]

disagree on flamberge ban. This show it has to be Original sinful spoil. As it is what allows the azamina combo to get to snake eyes while having an omni negate up + moon setup before searching for snake eye

[@alfred7453]

Agreed, banning OSS would disconnect snake-eyes from other archetypes like FK and azamina

[@alchemistarcher02]

I’m not sure I agree, because they still want to bridge into Snake-Eye for the purpose of adding Flamberge to the endboard. OSS has so little payoff in Azamina/Snake Eye if it’s just to grab Ash & Poplar and not Flamberge. I’m fine with both getting banned though. It feels to me like the same difference between banning Kashtira Ariseheart vs the Kash Field spell or Birth.

[@I_am_Kuro]

@@alchemistarcher02 there is a 1 card combo that uses the new sinful spoil card to turbo out an omni negate while sending oss for cost and adding ash. While I agree it will not stop the deck to ban oss, it will remove wanted, diabelle and the new azamina spells as starters and cards the deck can play. Thats way bigger than people think

Ban Flamberge and limit Diabellstar. After that would be limiting Fiendsmith Engraver and giving an errata to Beatrice. Make it so her effect can only be used if she was summoned using her alternative summoning requirement. That way Burning Abyss gets a buff and Fiendsmith gets nerfed. Poplar can go to one as well. Unban Mathmech Circular and Linkuriboh. Unban Isolde and put her to one. This will create many more decks for players to build while breathing new life into older archetypes such as Infernoble and different Cyberse decks. Striker Dragon to 3. Called By the Grave to 2. More non engine means more hand traps being used. To help alleviate the problem adding in more counter play is needed for less resilient decks to play.

[@CaliburXL99]

They’d need to ban both Flamberge & Poplar because Flamberge is a crazy card & whatever consistentcy hits u do to SE won’t matter when Infernal Flame Banshee is a card.
