Paleozoic Frog Toadally Awesome 2016 1st Place Deck Profile Russell Yeung @ MOS4

[@jbalex159]

Russ showed me this deck when it was still in the works about two weeks ago. It's crazy, gratz on the win.

[@HotPepperLala]

I want to know what his exp was like against metalfoes?

[@christexin1981]

HEY ITS U I WAS UR MIRROR MATCH AT REGIONALS XD

[@TwiistedTempo]

Are you guys gonna profile Tommys ba?

[@MSTTV]

+TwiistedTempo hell yah!! Just still sick... It should come Friday morning!

[@TwiistedTempo]

MST.TV hope you get better dude and thanks a ton for the hard work :)

[@wildwest8069]

How competitive are the MST Open Series, and how much turnout do you usually have?

[@MSTTV]

MST Open Series is a gauntlet. I would say competition level is like a Regionals, but the only catch is there is Top 8 Single Elimination Cut. so players are playing about... 11-12 hours which filters out the players that aren't as strong. MOS 1 was 64, MOS 2 was 91 MOS3 64 MOS4 74 (Clashed with Fan Expo)

[@wildwest8069]

Wow, that's a reasonably good turnout. Can anyone come play in the MST Open Series @ W/E the venue is?

[@MSTTV]

Teysa Karlov yes anyone can come play

[@Lotsinto]

42 card deck?

[@chenzu3262]

Yes, it was a 42 card deck.

[@Lotsinto]

Why the Jar of Greeds then?

[@chenzu3262]

The reason that I play jar of greed is in cases where I use card of demise and that I have a dinomiscus set (which I don't have any cards in hand), then I can not only chain the paleozoic summon but I can also make dinomiscus or pikaia live in my back row.

[@Geminisity]

Somebody doesn't know the actual effect of Cat Shark... LOL Nice build though. I fucking love Paleozoic-Frogs.

[@chenzu3262]

Thank for the compliment!!!! Yeah I am such a scrub lol, I realized it when I read the card the day after the event. I guess it was also the fact that I use it only for toadally awesome to double it attack XD (and that I also played for almost 10-11 hours of Yugioh).

[@xbon1]

why would you use jar of greed over garasu? i'm saying you should have 3 garasu just incase opponent is for some reason or another running a spirit deck.

[@chenzu3262]

Yeah would have swap a jar for the third legacy of yata garasu, but I was unable to find the last copy before the MOS event.

[@xbon1]

Chen Zu good to know I wasn't missing anything with the jar of greed pick XD. awesome deck btw, playtested it a bit in ygopro and don't really have anything in my mind for changes which need to be done, solid deck when you get a good hand.

[@djkluee]

how many players? and congratz on the win, seems very budget friendly

[@chenzu3262]

Thanks dude!!! I try different variants of this deck (also had pot of desires at one point) but I found this build to be more consistent (because you don't want to lose resources through desires).

[@djkluee]

Chen Zu anytime, besides is also well deserved after the insight on the choices, but yeah i also found that desires is good to a certain point but removing resources is not good and barrier is like 50/50

[@djkluee]

and forgot to ask but would you remove the quaking and place stormings? or do you still recommend using the quakings

[@MSTTV]

74 players total for this 12 hour event.

[@MSTTV]

I would recommend quaking because of the perma removal.

[@NostalgicDuelist]

Gottem!

[@MelvinEncarnacion]

This dude has to catch his breath after a few words

[@MSTTV]

He did play for like 12 hours non-stop, yugioh. + The rush of winning, its understanding.

[@Zagrash]

I like how you force him to explain the deck with your taser ... (jk)

[@MSTTV]

+Zagrash Uchiha I had to "persuade" him to do the interview after 12 hours of yugioh. Jkjk I hope share with people how to record KZbin videos for tabletop games before the end of the year

[@guillermopereira2045]

Toadally cancer xd

[@klavierboy0075]

Todally unbreakable xD

[@dadakii9210]

congratz. this guy had huge luck i guess. but luck is a part of yugioh too. btw metalfo is the best deck atm. for sure.

[@MSTTV]

+Ei of the tiger I'm a bit surprised, but he did play very well

[@jacoblefcourt5004]

ice barrier frogs are better imo

[@komujimaru]

TREATOAD HAS FORCED ME TO NOT PLAY UNTIL NEXT BANLIST. I REFUSE TO PLAY AGAINST IT

[@RovanzTCG]

silly

[@Mattheuw1154]

Well, that´s pathetic.

[@xbon1]

CDI never got banned, treatoad won't either. treatoad is amazing and a fun card to play with, unlike metalfoes and the like which are autopilot with no real strat

[@primal44]

komujimaru that's a small girl move
