The State of Edison Format 2023

[@nylon...]

i went 7-2 at the ultimate time wizard event with pure blackwings, heavily inspired by a true hero's iteration, with my two losses being both diva hero beat, definitely agree that his take is the way to go moving forward for pure

[@ATrueHER0]

ATrueHero approves of this comment.

[@imnerdpodcast]

Yeah you need to play more monsters with an aggro deck. Somewhere down the road that got lost.

[@alex_flamer]

Lol the Frazier Smith State of the Union Address.

[@imnerdpodcast]

Lmao basically

[@yoelqve]

Can you share what cards in your side deck you like to use against what decks? Curious to know. Keep up the great work!

[@Apropos-YGO]

Hey Frazier, I'm the 3 Raiza frog deck guy. I really appreciated hearing your thoughts on the deck. I may be inspired to re-test some things in the build. In testing e conn seemed so Treeborn dependent that it could be dead going into post board games and the game 1 across most match ups was already pretty favorable with or without it. Great video. I havent been subscribed long, but so far I've agreed with pretty much your entire take on the recent edison Metagame

[@imnerdpodcast]

Thank you, appreciate the comment and congrats on your top, too!

I just researched Edison last week and decided on a (Goblin) Zombie Synchro deck. Where is this deck placed at at the moment? Im not seeing much info on it lately

[@imnerdpodcast]

Watch my recent tier list video

[@nara808]

My favorite decks right now are Diva Hero and Frog Hero… miracle is just insane. Although frogs don’t really need it it works in the deck.

[@imnerdpodcast]

It feels so good to resolve the card

[@brodericksmith4588]

What do you think about the use of modern time rules in the tournament? Both of my losses were to time at Nats and l'm not sure that if I knew about the time rules ahead of time that I could have had a better experience.

[@imnerdpodcast]

I think 45 minutes is enough time to play a best 2 of 3 in Edison, in person. If you’re going into time in multiple rounds you should probably address how fast you play and once you fix that then start to rush your opponents if they’re taking too long. As far as the time ruleset they’re using, I honestly don’t mind it because if people have an additional 2-3 turns each it could hold up the tournament A LOT, which I hate.

[@Xeph0]

So glad to see legacy players still holding it down. I did best in the original GB format with Gyz. But this makes me want to come back.

[@imnerdpodcast]

Legacy players know their stuff, and all the haters have to hold that 💪🏾 You should definitely dip your toe in at least 🖤

[@christopherspeck1287]

Hey Frazier, this might be a stupid question but I’m completely fresh to Edison, I’ve got a majority of a recent Vayu Turbo list from the Edison website, do you feel it’s a safe deck to finish off/play in this meta?

[@imnerdpodcast]

Yes

[@azntakumi]

Hopefully regular dragons become S. I love the deck.

[@imnerdpodcast]

It’s a possibility. Red Eyes is an absurd card.

[@kingvegeta7868]

@@imnerdpodcast joey wheeler would be so proud to hear you say that about red-eyes🙃

[@masonsargent745]

Is bubbleman never playable? I thought some hero builds played bubbleman. Maybe only janky builds or non-frog builds?

[@nara808]

Could be good in Frog hero

[@imnerdpodcast]

Actually the only hero best deck that topped nationals used bubbleman, and I played him in top8 and was scared as hell when he searched it then set his hand.

[@pengs100]

I liked bubbleman a lot more when Xyz monsters released but that's a different format.

[@OmniNero]

How good are the zombie decks in the meta now? (Diva Zombie, Diva Hero Zombie, WelleDAD, and Plant Zombie with Mark of the Rose/Power Tool Dragon). The same as always?

[@imnerdpodcast]

Outside of the new ultimate offering builds, everything with zombies is the same

[@DarkAngelYGO]

Another great Video, king.

[@imnerdpodcast]

Thank you 🖤

[@gabegalera]

Aye shout out to hybrid. I went 7-1-2 at Nats. Lol aka MonsterGamer loss to empty jar first match lol

[@imnerdpodcast]

I might be misinterpreting this, but are you MonsterGamer?

[@gabegalera]

@@imnerdpodcast yes sir! Haha sorry

[@imnerdpodcast]

well, well, well, hello Mr. MonsterGamer sir, it's nice to /cyber/ meet you :)

[@gabegalera]

@@imnerdpodcast haha yeah we didn’t formally meet in person. You complimented my watch actually

[@imnerdpodcast]

Sounds like me lol I met/conversed with so many people that weekend, I feel bad for forgetting a lot of interactions.

[@Rhulkallos]

Whose Vayu turbo list was that, or was that a generic list?

[@imnerdpodcast]

It was probably 10 foot’s. I feel like all vayu turbo lists are derivative of his at this point.
