UPDATED Chimera Branded Deck Profile Post LEDE!

[@AlexDeGreatYGO]

Solid list! In my Chimera deck I've found 1 Chimera/2 Berfomet fusions to work really well. You maybe miss out on the second GY effect, but if you can recycle it with the Berfomet GY effect you're golden.

[@BashtianYgo]

You make a great point!! Now I gotta look for a 2nd Berfomet fusion somewhere in my bulk lol

[@bobi8075]

I found best siding handtraps to put the patchwork package in idk. I feel alright relying on Super Poly and Ash/Ogre. And YES i play Nightmare Magician and will forever play him.

[@BashtianYgo]

Aye he's got GREAT artwork, pretty good effect, good stats and pretty easy to summon with Tao. Seems like a valid choice to me!

[@nobodyknows6973]

I agree with cutting Magnum, he's really only good when you have the edge imps that give him polymerization to interrupt with.

[@nobodyknows6973]

I'd also consider replacing Mirrorjade with Titaniklad since you have almost no albaz fusions in the ED

[@BashtianYgo]

And even then it's iffy if I wanna make it!

[@BashtianYgo]

Perhaps that may be the move.. regardless I'm going to need to make space for the 2nd Berfomet fusion along with the Dragostapalea

[@hydraflomo8636]

I’m currently playing a 45 card build with the patchwork engine (all at 2) and the Horus engine (3 king sarc 3 imsety 1 hapi 1 duamutef). I am loving how it plays and you only get locked if you summon berfomet. It allows you to play through droll if you have king sarc. Plus there are so many ways to get plus off of different discards in the deck. If you only have Horus you can go into zombie vampire to find a starter/extender. The only matches I have lost are when I have been shiftered (currently 6-2 at locals with the deck with 2 losses coming against kash players when I was shiftered)

[@BashtianYgo]

Ohh I know some ppl been talking about the Horus version but I haven't tried it out just yet! Seems interesting!!

[@kalamander8563]

I've been looking forward to your take on the deck. This is what im working towards to try out: Main: 45 Cards Chimera Package - 3 Nightmare Apprentice 1 Diabellez 3 Cornfield Couatl 3 Mirrorsword Knight 3 Gazelle 2 Berphomet 1 Master Tao 1 Emmisarry 1 Barrier Statue of Abyss 2 Chimera Fusion Branded Package - 2 Albaz 3 Branded 1 Dark Magician Frightfur Package - 3 Edge Imp Chain 2 Patchwork 2 Poly Non Engine - 3 Ash 3 Imperm 3 Nibiru 3 Superpoly Extra Deck: 15 2 Chimera 2 Berphomet 1 Illusion Beast 1 Guardian 1 Magnum 1 Albion 1 Lubelion 1 Mirrorjade 1 Dragoon 1 Rimbrum 1 Muddragon 1 Garuda 1 Dragostapelia I don't have SP or Typhon, so full fusion for me. I may try cutting the non-superpoly handtraps to 2 and adding 3 Crossout to protect my plays, but i think 45 cards main is perfectly viable with how many starters and extenders the 3 engines give us.

[@BashtianYgo]

Looking SOLID! I definitely agree that Chimera came comfortably play over 40 comfortably. Love super poly! To me it's definitely a must play since it's great against all decks

[@kalamander8563]

@BashtianYgo most definitely. If your deck can run it, you should. Good luck in your future events!

[@funtimes8905]

I run a chaos angel in mine. Nightmare Apprentice + Swordknight is a simple way to make it in a simplified game state

[@BashtianYgo]

That's definitely something I've considered as well! I just don't have one and then idk what I would take out for it 🤷

[@Harmonic14]

Versago is a fiend, so you have different options for Dragoon lines

[@Stoneysgrow420]

Definitly wanna use edge imp package. Pitching edge imp of nightmare apprentice is insane. I use 3 crossouts with 2 ash, 2 imperm, 1 nib, 1 droll, 1 effect veiler.

[@BashtianYgo]

Yeah I'm testing more and I'm liking the edge imp stuff!! I'm also at like 47 cards rn lol gonna see if I can still add crossout! 🤣

[@Stoneysgrow420]

@@BashtianYgo where can i share my list with ya? I run 3 crossout and called by. Im thinking of dropping ash and imperm to 1 and putting in a lightning storm, a ghost sister and a d shifter. I think that will put me at 43 or 44. Super consistant deck and diabellze is insane when u bring it back off master tao. Superpoly only at 2.

[@Stoneysgrow420]

Also im not running branded now. I was but not anymore. With apprentice it is pretty good and if you put chaos angel out they more then likely are done bc then you are alive for another turn to make illusion beast and otk since the non illusions are protected from chaos angel.

[@BashtianYgo]

Ohh idk man I'm so hesitant to take out the Branded stuff and play it pure since Branded stuff has won me so many games alone. I definitely gotta try and make room for called by and crossout tho! Shoot the list in the comments and we can all check out the guu 💪🏽

[@santiagoalzate8820]

Isn’t branded fusion limited to 1? (I play master duel, I don’t know if it is as well IRL)

[@Spartacu0015]

I would consider removing Super poly so you can use Chaos Angel and Beatrice in extra deck. I have been testing it and enjoying it.

[@asuraphreak]

What's your thoughts on Sinful Spoils slumber?

[@Harmonic14]

Removing Super Poly is not worth having those options whatsoever

[@asuraphreak]

@@Harmonic14 Hate to say it but I agree. The Ed that is normally the targets should be changed.

[@GoyathlayAmedeo-ky8wq]

I think playing beatrice is a cool idea and keeoing the branded package small. I saw what darkman alt did with beatrice and it was wild.

[@GoyathlayAmedeo-ky8wq]

If you don't draw branded fusion you can do crazy beatrice plays and if you do, you just don't go beatrice

[@BashtianYgo]

You talking about Beatrice to send rollback and Disturbance Strategy?

[@Stoneysgrow420]

Dont cut magnum. He gets rid of the anti zues when the opponet puts him out. Also you can run chaos angel. It comes up quite often when you open up berfomet or chimera fusion with the other 1 card starters. Just summon gazelle instead of big wing off mirror swordnight. Then you can syncro mirror swordnight and nightmare apprentice and have light and dark chaos angel😊

[@BashtianYgo]

So I actually took out Magnum but when I started testing with the frightfur engine I immediately saw how good this card can be lol I put it back in my ED!

[@david.hanrahan]

cant wait to see how this deck performs, espscially with nutty wax plays, and otks. your list has inspired me to save crafting points in master duel lol when the support comes. just spent 600ur dust on Dinos and rescue ace.

[@BashtianYgo]

Mah man!! Lmk how it goes! #chimerasquad

[@sinzodium8421]

i like to run kit and branded in white to search off berfomet to play through albion getting negated and still end on dragoon

[@BashtianYgo]

Interesting.. might be worth looking into 🤔

[@paulboittiaux110]

Very good list! I am the author of the chimera top4 from montreal general, I really like your point of view, and now that we have apprentice maybe i'll test HT again

[@BashtianYgo]

Aye man man! I appreciate the support! Chimersquad is strong 💪🏽

[@zacharymorales5848]

you really don't into the second chimera, plus the s:p an typhoon are extra I would cut ht for board breakers or consider the fact that is still fire format so cash wouldn't be ny first option

[@hoserasmijn2520]

Nice deck :-) soon gonna be my deck also waiting for the new cards...

[@gokusensei0076]

I'm playing shinning sarcophagus branded chimera at 45 cards currently

[@godsmithofchaos]

Solid list

[@BashtianYgo]

🙏🏽

[@marcelomunoz1543]

Crossout for shifter

[@BashtianYgo]

Shifter hurts so bad.. 😢

[@andresledesma9807]

Instead of gameciel use radian cause he’s a dark fiend

[@BashtianYgo]

NOW WE'RE TALKING! That's a great idea! If I keep playing Kaijus, you're definitely right my friend 💪🏽
