Magnamon X vs Imperialdramon - BT-16 Matchplay Preview!

We are back with some more commentary! TJ and Ben go through some matches from our recent locals at Sully's Abode. We are bringing back some casual BT-16 match ups so that you all can learn what these decks do and how they work. Today we have Jose playing Magnamon X-Antibody and TJ playing Imperialdramon. In the future, we will be looking to get more variety out there for you guys but for now enjoy two very powerful decks for BT-16!

Everybody talks about magnamon x and blablabla, yet nobody talks about imperialdramon . He is the true menace

[@HyperColosseum]

Imperial is gonna be real strong i think next set -- partition as a key word is Huge for DNA decks

[@amateurishauthor2202]

8:21 veemon does not live vs the security Magnamon. Magnamon's security effect is 'Devolve 1 1 of your opponent's digimon, then after the battle, one of your digimon may digivolve into this card.' So Veemon doesn't survive the security battle as the evolution happens after the security battle. Cracked card.

[@Boldship]

Yeah I mention during commentary that I forgot it still does battle so it should have been gone, didn’t really change the outcome tho at least.

[@amateurishauthor2202]

Honestly it's a fair mistake, there aren't many Security digimon in the game and the one I can think of (ZWART defeat) plays itself without battling.

[@a.block.of.tofu.]

Honestly, I'm really over bt15 so I appreciate you guys doing these bt16 matches.

[@guccibreh9212]

BT15 was healthy

[@a.block.of.tofu.]

@@guccibreh9212 I agree for the most part. I'm just bored of it.

[@HyperColosseum]

Agreed; it was a healthy format but it's starting to get dull. Glad you enjoy it and we will be trying to get more out there!

[@discoleumas6191]

BT16 has a lot more exciting cards to build with from a deck building standpoint in my opinion.

[@ZackerYGO]

excellent content as always guys, love all the early bt16 videos!

[@HyperColosseum]

glad you enjoy them and thank you for the support! BT15 has definitely dragged on so for sure feels good to see some fresh material

[@chiragasnani3437]

Nice match! Any chance we can see the Imperialdramon list?

[@digi_core3404]

A picture of decks as your doing your wrap up at the end would be perfect.

[@LandDonut]

Sadly the link doesn’t work 😢

[@HyperColosseum]

@@LandDonut Oof; so sorry! we did upload a video of the profile today!

[@georexzx3780]

Those Perrin sleeves tho 👀

[@OrukaBlanca]

Gsme 1 final.zuba does not give tje second check because it must resch 18k when using tje option, since it was used before msgna x effect, it was 15k do no check reboot nor anything

[@Boldship]

I mention in the commentary that the eggs are bt16 demivee which gives plus 1k all turns as long as that Digimon has 2 or more colors. So he was technically 16 after final zuba which is the dp threshold you need to hit to get all the effects from final zuba.

[@madbeast15]

This demonstrates the weakness I've been analysing for Magnamon decks. Which is wide boards. Deck has no removal besides ST Magna and some stuff like Heaven's Judgement. You need tools to match wide aggression when building the deck, and try to go wide with your level 4 blockers to match them too.

[@HyperColosseum]

Agreed! it is still a crazy card but the match up can be done and it can bleed. It's just a matter of playing the matchup well and i think adapting to the situation

[@DemonEyeHelix]

Magna decks run multiple copies of heaven's judgment and DeathXmon to wipe wide boards.

[@juanmunoz-perez457]

Starter deck Magnamon effect adds itself to the hand before the battle happens. So veemon doesn't battle anything. No misplay. 8:20

[@PinOytaku]

ST magna de-digivolves one, battles, and at the end of the battle, something on the magna player's field can digivolve into magna

[@thejankenthusiast1285]

I need Jose's Egg Sleeves

[@Geovexas009]

Would love to see the deck list

[@HyperColosseum]

We have an imperial profile going up on the channel today!

[@Perceval308]

I agree it wasnt a good idea to give a digimon protection to literally everything and also that digimon being able to activate ithe effect again and again. Also these matches are interesting to see what the other decks can do

[@HyperColosseum]

thank you! i am definitely interested to see how the meta shapes up

[@lVicel]

_"Unaffected by effects in general, I don't like it"_ Yeah... Bandai got out of hand with that 😵‍💫 TyrantKabuterimon shares the same thing, but Decks can at least turn the match around with a good Option With Magna you can only survive if you go for a Tech with a good Counter or you spam your field with so many Blockers that it cannot reset its effect

[@brycemiller831]

I’ve been grinding vaccine armor. Best deck in the game imo.

[@brycemiller831]

Would do a feature but I don’t live near you all

[@Boldship]

Yeah I’ve seen a little of people mention this, makes sense since vaccine plays around with security so much more easily than vee armors does. The only downside ive heard with vaccine armor variant is consistency but I haven’t played it myself enough to know anything

[@Boldship]

A lot*

[@HyperColosseum]

Maybe one of these days we grab a cam game! can't wait for the national champ to yeet me out of peoria hahah

[@gorrem123]

8:30 forgot magna x eff

[@erbinezakivargasvalencia4490]

deck list de imperialdramon

[@jonathanportillo5559]

Still a goood match

[@juanjesustorressalcedo780]

the magna need a little bit of jesmon gx

[@JphantomXIII]

To be fair magna x is a strong card but to balance its intent dp is low and it immunity is has a condition that need to be met first. If it hit a security bomb or you play an option to get rid of it it gone. If anything it will motivate people to play more removal

[@HyperColosseum]

Agreed; i do think that it is a manageable "problem" so to speak so we shall see once the meta shapes up

[@MJ-oi6ul]

it can atk you twice and is invincible on summon and your turn until the start of their turn and if they play a yellow deck they dont even have to worry about your “security trigger” card is tier0
