Snake-Eye Vs Labrynth Unchained | Locals Feature Match - Round 1 (2/17/24)

[@theponystark]

6:30 Is the Lab player chaining the Chandraglier, pitching Big Welcome, then chaining Big Welcome to bounce Ariane, circumventing the Veiler?

[@ruboboyo4579]

Yep

[@WinterKillz]

Yeah I believe so

[@babrad]

Yes, it's possible because the discards are cost. This is also done with shufflers, allowing you to spin back lvl1s when Flamberge is activated, or if you are a master duel enthusiast spin back your maxx c that is getting Called By. CL1 Nibiru CL2 furniture is also quite common, tributing the entire board and not giving the opponent a token to work with.

Black Goat Laughs is basically Albaz Lore - it's Alubers mask in his chair (from the bystial aluber) on the artwork which i love haha can't wait for konami to continue the lore

[@WinterKillz]

Oh wow, that's really cool actually! Thanks for filling me in!

[@CelticDuelist]

@@WinterKillz they released a few "lore cards" for that, beginning with "Million-Century Ice Prison" for Icejade/and maybe Swordsoul in DUNE, "Black Goat" (Aluber/Despia/Bystial) in AGOV and as of now "Blink-Out" (Spright/Fallen of Argyros - could also be Therions in the artwork but I'm not so sure) . So I think they'll release a card for each lore piece or archetype and then they'll resume the Albaz Lore :D

[@babrad]

About Nibiru, Lab has evolved to be Nibiru-ed on both turns, especially if you play the Unchained package (although it doesn't hurt). They are now like Traptrix, but faster.

[@WinterKillz]

Appreciate the input as always

Main deck EEV is quite strange for this format. Turn 1 to be honest it's better to give it up and get Rage/Sp + either Unchained trap, then popping Rage gives back Clock, and if they don't have a quick effect you can get an additional trap. If the Unchained trap is specifically Chamber (revive) instead of Escape (pop), you can change your turn 1 play into making Rage with Yama + Lady, then popping Rage with Sharvara so that Yama revives Lady (pops Sharvara on resolution) and you keep EEV + Lady + Chamber. On G2 to be honest I didn't understand what happened. I think Chandle's trigger was forgotten on turn 1 (it doesn't matter that much), while turn 3 was incredibly passive. The NS of Ariane would have triggered Temple but Flam is irrelevant at this point, SP will be run over in battle, then on MP2 Lovely sets Welcome, Ariane sends it for Arianna (protected by CBTG) to search Clock, and since Welcome was negated by Blossom there is no fiend lock. So you can go for Dharc (steal Linkuriboh) and make SP the 5th summon to banish Flam and protect Lovely from Nib. Or be a bit riskier and go for Yama to add Sharvara (just for the extra card in hand) discard Clock, discard Sharvara + Chandle, set/activate Big-Welcome that will summon/bounce Lady and make Rage (+ unchained trap if still in the main) with Yama + Clock (effect to summon instead of adding to hand). Lovely will also handrip again since keeping Temple on the field prevents both Lightning Storm and Evenly from wiping you out. During the End Phase Lady can safely be summoned in case the opponent had Nib and at least give you a bounce with Big-W. Best case you banished Flam, Rage is live with Yama in GY, Lovely can trigger by Escape and Lady will get a new trap, while Big-W is the last defense in the GY.

Lol i was starting to get curious if anyone played lab at your locals

[@RobinsAssistant]

Power creep fr fr

FKSE is better against Lab specifically because of Kirin allowing them to pop 2 cards when you set, but regular SE is not that hard of a matchup. The main issue of Lab though is neither deck, it's exclusively Promethean completely invalidating Ty-phon's existence and not allowing you to summon even Clock make Ty-phon, beat over something like SP bounce another thing then set 2-3 cards and play on their turn. Rescue Ace was a free matchup for Lab (just like Kash) but if they go through Promethean it becomes almost unwinnable.
