@@jbjthehonorable5456 during my time in Japan! Best tenner I've spent.

@@PeTr0o0L haven't tried it yet, been taking a small break to focus on some other things. Wanted to just mention that Apophis negates up to the number of OTHER Continuous Traps, so it won't include itself. I have a video on my channel showing combos under Shifter. Essentially, you can still do your normal stuff (Blue>Jet>Gigantic>Summon a Rsd/Carrot), and then you can also make your Melffy stuff if you have the resources. If you're running the Rabbit, you can summon that instead.

@@theorangegriffin7531 well thats made my life way easier idk how i missed that good catch 🤣 im off the melffy stuff atm in favor of the rabbit so was considering playing ipiria or another generic 2 like meowmine. Ive binged all of your recent videos for some reference. Have a big locals on saturday and there are waaaaaay too many decks to prepare for, from meta to rogue to stun and all inbetween so at a loss as to how to prepare. You have purrely with their tower monsters, snake eyes and yubel (with an without friendsmiths), a bunch of tenpai maining shifter, branded “ftk” decks, mega combo decks like mannadium, runicks, labrynth, floo etc. its been a doozy 🙃

1 big addition to the format is mulcharmy too. Not sure if you have stumbled on it but it can really put a hose on melffy sprights. Made me consider mannequin cat for testudo since charmy is a water but it having the benefit of being accessible by toad and double cross. Rabbit plays around charmy as well.

@@PeTr0o0L Yeah that's a whole other issue.... I'm hoping that it loses popularity over time, but it does suck to have a targeted Maxx C that specifically hurts this deck and a select few.

@@theorangegriffin7531 based on the topping lists of nawcq and euwcq looks like mulcharmy is a staple side card at the moment

@@Rpreditor00 Both play into Shifter well, the Melffy main deck monsters are however not complete bricks going 2nd, whereas the Trap is. Will still need to test, but I plan on testing after the banlist as I'm currently taking a break :)

Unfortunately haven't been in touch with the meta post-INFO! But from a glance, might need to either take a full board breaker approach while praying to not run into any Gimmick Puppets, or you can main Shifter, -Droplets.

@@TeamYoungBucks will probably wait for the banlist :)

What do you mean by that. I have yet to see a deck that competes with snakesmith post info.

@@dimitarhinchovski1883 that’s what I mean the guy shows us only matches against low tier rogue decks, let see the deck play against just snake eye not even with fiend smith and see what happens

@@furobituro5582 the deck clears tenpai if you know what you are doing and that is enough. Nothing can compare with the tier zero. He is not saying that the deck is the best cmon.

I went against snake eye with this deck, and won a match even going second. If you’re smart enough, you can break through boards. Even if you can’t break through the end board, I’m proud enough to be able to cook through it.

@@mikevalencia4548 probably 3 to make everything more consistent? But this was more just a fun list I was trying out before.

What would you take out for this card(s) imo the deck is so full atm with spright, nimble, Melffy, frogs, and hand traps what would you give up instead?

@@sillyclown6083 Late reply, apologies. Not great, especially if we want to move towards maining Shifter again. We also have enough engine (frogs), so having another 2 isn't going to help that much.

I'd say mid to low tier 1.5

Add the fiendsmith engine to it

we play the new hat hare coming out and some people are playing the level 2 aqua that can reborn itself when double cross reborns. both cards help us not hard lose to dark ruler/droplet

@@Vadesdo you know what the best target for the hat hare is? I’m thinking of replacing the melffy engine with it but I don’t know if Angel Statue (summon negate at any time) is better than Silhouhatte (negate 2 cards on summon if you still control rabbit, otherwise negate 1)

@@danmanproking2179 Angel Statue seems more strong in more scenarios

Yep, just the attribute! Fenrir and Radian share their levels (7), and Jet/Blue share the Dark attribute with Radian.

@@TechAreUs you can run both! The Melffy stuff and Fenrir are both great! As for S:P, while it is great not only as an I:P link target, it is also really good at removing follow-up or annoying cards in general (Princess, My Friend Purrely, etc). Replacing it is hard, but you can try Knightmares instead. You can usually OTK with Gamma Burst (break their board and then swing for game with 3-4 bodies and Gamma Burst), or you can use Mosquito (2-3 additional bodies, you don't need to clear their board). I'd recommend running both Gamma Burst and Double Cross. Gamma Burst for OTK potential, and Double Cross for Toad/Herald follow-up. Also acts as interruption if you don't want to reccur the Omnis.

@@theorangegriffin7531 Thanks so much man, one of the best responses I've ever gotten from a TH-camr and being one myself, I appreciate you always responding to comments and viewer's questions. But yeah man I'm just torn between playing the Melffy stuff, or just playing Triple Tactics, because a lot of my locals don't play HTs so I'm thinking the Melffy stuff is worth it to make going first even better and was on Smashers, but decided to go for Double Cross instead after watching your new video that you posted an hour ago bro! Yeah just don't know if I should play more breakers, I'm currently at 40 cards with the Melffy stuff, but really wanna play Talents, so let me know what you think bro and decided to play Avram over S:P, since I had a copy and figured it puts up major pressure on board. P.S. what do you think of siding Phantazmay to draw cards as well as stop targetting disruption from popping the normal summon, or level 2 before you can do anything?

@@TechAreUsAppreciate the comment! I see it as just helping out fellow players more than viewers :') Talents can definitely suck to draw. If a good majority of your locals aren't playing HTs, then definitely consider playing other cards over it. Maybe Droplet, or even just other handtraps? Droll, Crow, Veiler etc. Phantazmay does seem quite interesting, considering it'll come up in most matches. Definitely one that is worthwhile testing! I like the aspect of being able to cycle through cards, and to have more resources going 2nd. Could be onto something!
