[Proxy Play] Aoi vs Bico Stellar | Jan 18, 2025

[@elin111]

Looking at the new Astorea one can hope the other Masques decks get this same treatment of "It's more or less the same but without the bricky hell that is a Masques engine"

[@carstenpetersen1379]

Yeah, hoping for new orfist. Until then, ill be playing the new lyrical girl.

[@amirullfadzli1310]

Masque we have Gandeeva Drajeweled, Almajester, Greedon, Gravidia, Orfist Solrairon Zorga, magnolia, lianorn

@@amirullfadzli1310 And Bushiroad consider giving Masques to Fenelle and Siana.

[@GuardianCircleCFV]

Houndrazers really bring that classic Royal Paladin feeling back. Looking forward to this one, I'm tempted to go high rarity also as long as it ain't too much.

[@Ant-Man-dx4qf]

This was a long game because both Hector and Phillip just wouldn't go down 😂. But overall both decks are good. Side note: I feel like Phillip won because Hector technically already declared his Vanguard attack, Phillip you should've kept your mouth shut and taken the win 😂😂😂.

High Beasts unite! Been playing Houndraisers myself since last week now, and have my own video in the works for it as well >3

[@VGKitty]

Gotta add too that Tigris is a near must have cause he is great for early shield value if you can call a copy from rideline and Mishiro, combine that with Mishiro you can easily tri lane on g2 turn. I get Cerrgaon but like at least for me the deck doesn't totally rely on him like a "ride or die" situation. Plus it'd be better to have high beasts remain on the back row for defense. :3. Just my additional input

[@ReonSkyridge]

How do you like running effect draws in Houndrazer? I've been testing Vanilla Fronts because its more high beast targets with a bigger shield, and outside of your 1st attack it benefits everything in the pattern. Plus, draw isnt AS important with the order, Cergaon, and how much the deck thins itself with 3 drives a turn....

[@goergerakly1496]

If u run draws, u could 1 to pass the BR which ur opponent always do. If front, it won't hut

[@ReonSkyridge]

@@goergerakly1496 True, but thats what all the other triggers in the deck are for. Assuming max crit, were looking at a 3 card swap from draw to front, and with Melongaon being your main attacker your looking at him hitting 23k on attack anyways-so 33 being his trigger hit means at least 2 cards out of hand for a 1 pass....My breakdown vid goes into how fast this deck can rip through hand with its buffs and 4 attacks making decent numbers.

[@salvagesigh9705]

Me: dog, dog, dog, Hector, dog!! Hector calmly: *dots in his head* ah thank you. Almost forgot 😂😂

[@n-do6945]

Have been trying out Stella for a while now Drive and crit + 1 has better pressure when going first, but no restand RG is quite sad while it only adds 5k front row no matter how many cards in bind zone Going second is worse since making 5 in bind zone to restand RG is quite hard since we have no unit to bind crit except Sparda for now Yes, we can make it with one Sparda, after bind crit, call another unit in place of Sparda to retire it, and call it back with Bifron. About the new unit, I love the G1 Mage of Twilight, Ilyria since it restand with the unit restanded by Stellar by SB1 However, the G3 Archetry Chimaera has no slot in the deck IMO. The purose of this unit is mostly to cycle the Stellar in hand. I suggest put some G3 Order Almajest Celesphere for countercharge For unit, better put G2 Servant Falcracia so you can discard Stellar with no worries, and Falcrasia has more power by putting Stellar or Celesphere from drop to soul Overall, it has better pressure for going first, but still can't fully activate all of its ability and still needs Bifron to make everything works Wish we can have better support in the future

[@andychai2089]

Personally im running effect soul fronts for Aoi deck. Whiffing persona would leads to soul issue. Flipping fronts makes the deck swings even harder. Im liking the deck a hell lot!

[@consulemanimedrawings2275]

I don't get where does the new Astroea is different from the masques

[@flareblade2143]

Does a surperior persona ride without require both the masques and masque unit, gets the crit and drive from Old Astroea, can do a restand without needing to go to masques and this Astroea counts other copies of Astroea in the bind zone towards effects

[@omegarebirth7281]

I am running more of the order variant of the deck so plutonic has more search targets with Celesphere. Along with firia, early game aggression isnt too bad + there's extra soul if needed. Also currently running cleansweep dragon since you persona ride every turn for the -3 for your opponents. Might cut them for more Astroea for bifrons though.

[@h-squid]

I still don't understand why hector keeps putting cerrgaon on back row center and not either the 18000 dog or the guard restrict dog

[@VGKitty]

Its expected for "Proxy Plays", this is made to test new decks and ideas as said in the video so misplays WILL happen.

[@romantipoem]

IS THAT CONNOR!!??

[@ZEDEX252]

I'm just gonna say it: They cooked with this astroea support. There's some things missing from not playing masques such as the 5k scaling is no more and also unable to turbo 5 threshold unless you go 2nd and you got the pieces. Also it still consumes cb so celesphere might be a consideration. Though you run the masques as a finisher and i think it's good way to use masques though it could be better if we got the new wretch for ds. Also cool to see you running og unica. Overall though really good new foundation and i hope for more support

[@cardnacn6704]

I tested both pure Stella and Stella + Masque(like playing the same Masque but change Unica to Stella). I think both have their own pros and cons. - pure Stella: better defensive but feel bad when going 2nd. - Stella + Masque: better offensive in late game and has plan B to go for but potential brick bc of Masque engine. Imo, I prefer mixing with Masque a bit more bc I don't like going 2nd and still attack with 3 waves when opponent start to go HAM next turn. I really want to more supports to bind crit/Astroea other than G1 rideline. It would help playing pure Stella a lot smoother.

[@reversal3628]

​@@cardnacn6704With new dragontree rearguard for dark state, your Hybrid build will even more stable and less brick. Hope it's not just DE and Keter that get. Even g4 Drajewel can going 2nd and not far behind with masq persona❤

[@satekoi]

New game is coming Cardfight Vanguard: Dear Days 2.

[@Galaxyxoxo1]

I’d suggest playing more spardas. The deck kinda really needs it

[@kodokutamashi1569]

😅 it's not!
