Seeing dkayed react to a new way to play mikanko was the best part about this tourney

[@momiji7308]

It's not new, I started playing that version way before others, I kept saying on the mikanko discord channel that this way of playing the deck is better and everyone didn't believe me.

He could had game if he did not tribute summon Maximus, He summon 1 Mikanko with Arabesque and he tributed But he also had Fire Dance in hand it was 6600 damage

Still won that round tho

And the fact he didn't play any kaiju is insane 😊

[@bishop1283]

@@monaessa8384 yeah ive never seen a mikanko deck like that.

[@deadbeatplays]

As a mikankos main, some of those plays made me realize I've actually just been playing checkers this whole time

[@zwaynnevoldyx2080]

31:29 In case people wondering why Iorisaur didn't summon the "Bystial Magnamhut" to survive that turn, the equip card "Metalsilver Armor" prevented it from targeting "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" in the GY. The last chance that Iorisaur could summon "Bystial Magnamhut" was at the response of "Power Tool Braver Dragon"'s effect to equip. But even if Iorisaur summoned "Bystial Magnamhut", it will still be destroyed with "Mikanko Kagura" anyways. And maybe drawing another Bystial from "Branded Regained" could safe Iorisaur for that turn. I'm really enjoying this duel. Respect to both player and also thank you Dkayed for the video!

[@lorisaur3023]

Thank you for the explaination! In game 3, instead, Metasilver Armor also locked me from activating Skybridge or the rank up/down effect of Constellar Tellarknights, since they target my monster and that is also not allowed, so my only out was Zeus as I couldn't proceed with my combos

[@zwaynnevoldyx2080]

@@lorisaur3023 The reason why I could explain that is because I was in your situation before and thus I can relate. Sometimes we learn it in hard way, but hey what a duel! Looking forward to your next spicy duels. Thanks for passing by

Mikanko vs Tellarknight was sick

Probably one of my favorite matches all month, both builds were sick and pulled all kinds of clever plays.

You don’t know how much I look forward these vidoes weekly thanks Dkayed

[@DMGaming117]

One thing I enjoy about these videos is you can learn ways to counter the top decks you go against so people who don't play meta but want to hit max rank will have a chance.

thanks mate. all respect to u as well (it is me Morasaky XD)

Dkayed is hands down the best YGO streamer commentator existed. Sure other is more knowledgeable but they are kinda boring. Some even rebrand MCS tournament but still not as good.

[@soranobabel4474]

mikanko let's gooooo, the guy mastered the deck to its limits gg

[@sebestianritter7097]

The chains on the extra deck idea was cool

[@jaycarl85]

Love the mikanko showing up in the finals. The semis wwere great too.

[@siclay]

as a mikanko enjoyer myself i love to see the deck getting success in tournaments, didnt expect a no kaiju version of the deck tbh, and i definitely cant wait for gen and ken coming to master duel which would make mikanko even more better (more toxic too)..

[@MansMan42069]

you're a mikanko enjoyer? my condolences.

[@Kiriemy]

It made my day if when Mikanko wins, Im gonna use his reference for my mikanko too, I love to play them

[@bluestorm1990]

it wasn't even the blind kaiju going second mikanko version that won .

[@cooldars007]

Yay a mikanko win, that's just awesome

[@Nero13-m7e]

Love to see Dinos back on ladder~ :)

[@allanyang21]

Too bad maxx c stop him

[@tzachyanovich2739]

He could play it better tho

[@itsjayn4538]

its easy to say "there should an icon that shows extra deck locks " for example ... but there are SOOOO many restrictions that can happen , you can get locked into an archetype,attribute,type and so much more or multiple locks ... im sure too many icons on the screen would scare new or returning yugioh players and the screen wouldnt be looking good if its cluttered with different icons but the UI has been improved so many times and I am sure Konami will find other ways to improve it even more

[@Fikri_A777]

Just made one lock icon, and if you hover your cursor over it, it'll show what you've been locked into, just a thought

[@MansMan42069]

Another UI change I'd like is an icon that tells you which of your banished cards are face down.

[@Mauroreq]

Thanks a lot for uploading this.

[@TheBuffon074]

Can't wait for Mikanko Spiritwalk coming to Master Duel.

[@jervey123]

also diabellstar, gen and ken, i can't wait wait to cheese people with some stupid-ass turn 1 acid golem plays

[@itsjayn4538]

the meta is so versatile ... makes it really interesting but like Dkayed said sooo many decks can only be beaten by Maxx C if they go first... and nothing is worse then having enemy combo on you for 10minutes just so you can have all your cards negated

[@kyji1569]

thats why maxx c exist to keep check on combo decks but im not gonna lie i hate getting maxx c as well specially without ht to response 😅😂

[@6em974]

It is really crazy how much dkayed knows about yugioh

[@pashlyn]

Getting the itch to play Mikanko again

[@nonamedpleb]

Mikanko rather play a going first version because it's a best of 3 tournament. opponent would just keep making them go first once they know the deck and the kaiju versions dont have much setup going first.

I struggle against bystial branded/bystial dragon link as a vanquished soul player i outplay some on ladder tho for a 10-0 streak then losing to one, Its the only deck I struggle against so many outs to disruptions

[@unknownperson5162]

I like the new toy dragon synchro monster, where i made my mikanko deck i had 1 in my deck and wanted to summon it with krystron lvl 1 in the turn of the opponent, to make me indestructable from all sources and negate 1 card on the field. Its machine so also funny

[@yugiboomer9772]

i was really liking how much gas Mannadium has until I go second against someone who passes on one Fenrir. You just straight up die to one Fenrir.

[@mmlaughing6458]

Too bad that Isolde just got banned in TCG, at least Mikanko still have Power Tool to make going 1st play using Diviner or Assault engine but not having Isolde hurt man.

[@jetherarroz1118]

Did you really think TCG affect MD? MD have different banlist and it is based on OCG so as long as those cards is not banned on OCG, MD will not hit it.

[@Test-mq8ih]

​@@jetherarroz1118lot of current MD banlist didn't follow OCG banlist either, so the chance of Isolde won't get banned in MD isn't zero, either way nobody knows, just wait and pray

[@Wyrade]

I love these mikanko plays! :D (Although the others had some great plays too!)

[@sternritternovad]

Beware the Mikankos for the UWUmerons are terrifying.

[@randumo24]

It's definitely not like Numeron. There is a reason why that deck is not played while Mikanko can win tournaments today and is still played in the card games too. People act like Mikanko and Numeron are the only reflect damage decks, but Lyrilusc can do the exact same thing to win. As we saw, reflecting damage is not the only way for Mikanko to win, and when the new Infernoble support hits Master Duel we'll see even more Mikanko play. Morasaky was using Infernoble in this tournament, but it's still missing cards that make it a true tournament topping threat. The easy way to play Mikanko may be a completely blind second Kaiju strategy, but it has a cap on how far you'll succeed.

[@Morasaky]

Morasaky's here. all respect to u man. once we get infernoble and hopefully we dont get isolde ban. i can guarantee u that i can cook with it. as i topped regionals in tcg with it and i am not even using the acid golem cringe lock. also when dkayed post the early rounds vids tomorrow and the day after u would see some of the plays i was trying to make. i did misplay here and there but the deck is really strong and fun to play@@randumo24

[@crunchgd4924]

With MAXX C being a card i find it funny people still try to play dinos going first with scrap. Just play a go second dinos deck with thrusts and board clears. You dont even need scrap. It wins much more and easily burns negates. Once xeno comes out, going first dinos will be more viable.

[@Enyalus87]

TCG banlists suck IMO because they have no chill. Like when they banned Arise-Heart, or just now them outright banning Circular. It shouldn't be okay to kill an entire archetype just because Komoney wants to sell the newest pack. I want as many decks viable as possible. Just tone down their power level a little so there's never a Tier 0.

[@MarioLopez-xs3vc]

The worst part is Cyberse piles were NEVER as busted in the TCG as they were in the OCG because of the format differences, so this was literally just killing a deck to force a meta shift. Even Tearlaments without the millers isn't as dead thanks to the Horus engine and the return of Orcust to make some spicy plays with.
