Ah, it's time for Berry Fresh, the spiritual successor to Love Deck. Honestly, out of the entire "Dark Matter of Phantoms" pack, Berry Fresh is the most underrated or unnoticed Deck. Still, Berry Fresh managed to place well in Events or Tournaments, proving that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover (or in this case, Artwork). The Deck itself is super consistent, you'll have almost no Bricks and the Deck complements itself well with its own cards: not only the Monsters, but also its Spell and Trap Cards. Berry Fresh Shy, Happiness Harvest and Artless are the best cards in the Deck in my opinion, with Berry Fresh Pleasure, Happiness and Strawberry Sui Generis close behind. Deck's Field Spell can even be very useful in certain circumstances. My surprise is that the favorite Trap Card ended up being Berry Fresh Swimming since I thought Strawberry Farewell would have more utility (since it can destroy Backrow and Monsters). However, the Deck has many tools that allow you to reduce the ATK of your opponent's monsters which makes the use of Sui Generis and Swimming much easier and more effective to use. The Deck's wildcard is Chemispet Parakeet, a Monster that is not only pretty good in this Deck but is also a warning of one of the problems Manabu's Deck has: it doesn't lock you into FIRE Monsters. Several Manabu cards are just waiting for a good Aqua/Thunder/Pyro Deck that can easily abuse all of its semi-generic support (it's not tied to FIRE) As for complexity, I'd say Berry Fresh's complexity is on par with Celeb Rose and Dark Matter. In that regard, it's similar to Celeb Rose: a Deck that has a lot of combo potential and plays that can lead to a field full of Monsters putting pressure on your opponent. At the same time, it has the complexity of Dark Matter: a Deck that you need to combo by playing with various specs/restrictions (especially face-down cards) to get the most out of the Deck. Perhaps this is the reason why Berry Fresh is not popular among Rush Duels's players, where they prefer to play simple Decks like Rush's HERO or have a curious trick that is not far from the essence of a Rush Duels's Deck (Dark Matter focused on Contact Fusion) Still, Berry Fresh is by far the best Aqua Deck that Rush Duels has so far and one of the few Aqua Decks that takes advantage of Maizeful Charity. Seeing as there is confirmed to be support for Berry Fresh (and Love) in the future, it remains to be seen how the Deck will improve. PS: In a week is the new Rush's Banlist and it seems that Rush's Jinzo and 7 Engine are on the verge of getting hit due to constant Tournament/Event wins. Will we see the end of Ship of Seven Treasures, limited to 1 or 2? I can see Konami limiting Jest of the Cosmos Princess in the future since it put Legend Strike and the new Mobius the Frost Monarch out of business. However, I can also see Cosmos Princess being limited, but Legend Magician/Strike being removed from Rush's Banlist to promote Legend Deck.

I really enjoyed my time with the Berries and am looking forward to playing them again, but I might need to play a few practice games to pilot them efficiently.

So these will be in the app eventually? That was a curious set. You played what could be called the Lyrilusc of Rush. The deck can surprise the opponent and possibly overcome a lot of disruption. I look forward to the set, along with HERO of course!

Eventually! But it could be years yet.

About Hybridrive, time passes and it seems more and more that playing this Deck is better without Fusion Summon, but it still has problems. Hybridrive's main problem is the Dragon/Machine Type combination. There aren't many generic cards that support both Types effectively and Hybridrive support is very weak at the moment. The arrival of Hybridrive Orbuster only opens up more discomfort since it is a LIGHT Machine Monster in a Deck focused on LIGHT Dragon and EARTH Machine (don't be surprised to see an EARTH Dragon thanks to the Anime) The face of Hybridrive is definitely its Boss Monsters that aren’t Jointech or High Tech Dragon. I already talked about Hybridrive Screwdriver a while ago: a powerful Boss Monster with Floodgate Effect that can ruin any Deck if it were easier to bring to the Field and activate its Effect. The new Hybridrive Barriertail is the perfect complement to Screwdriver: it not only provides Pierce to a Deck that needs it but also gives protection to all your Dragon/Machine Monsters. Definitely a powerful duo against certain Decks that love to destroy Monsters or Jest of the Cosmos Princess itself (in that aspect, Yuhi did the right thing by using Hybridrive without Fusion Summon against Dark Meister) Other than that, it's funny that I think it's easier to fix Jointech and High Tech Dragon Decks independently than to try to fix Hybridrive's issues: this requires reworking the Deck and giving it more support that complements Dragon/Machine well. PS: The recent Anime Episode introduces Tomatosaurs's favorite Decks with new Cards that are certainly interesting. - Demolition received its own pair of Sportsdragons that not only serve to set up Tributes, but also allow you to recover Field and Equip Spells from the GY at the same time. A Trap Card with a Malevolent Catastrophe-like Effect and a Fusion Monster that requires Normal Monsters, but is a beast against Special Summon Monsters (losing 3000 ATK/DEF is a lot) - Celeb Rose, besides following the tradition of making Dark Revelation a completely useless Trap Card in the Anime, received a Spell Card that helps with the consistency of the Deck (well, Celeb Rose has a lot of Anime cards focused on consistency). However, the highlight here is the new Contact Fusion Monster: with a simple Effect, but that Fusion Monster complements well with the entire Deck and its playstyle.

I agree wholeheartedly, and both Jointech and High Tech have seen "some" meta relevancy but typically a few standout cards rather than the decks are a whole.
