Welcome in Ladies & Gentlemen! Today we're diving into my OP08 King Deck list & Guide. This will be a much longer form of a video, I'll try to go over everything that comes to mind in this short time. Be mindful, my voice is coming back, so it may go in and out during the video. In any case if you feel I didnt cover something, please check out some of my previous King deck builds. I try to touch on most of the important points here in this video. Let alone tons of content here on the channel from Sim to live games, w/ King vs Meta. I have some King Vs Bonney coming up. Wins/loses along w/ other meta decks vs king. I do hope I answered alot of questions with this video, or opened the door for you to ask questions. I know I may of forgot to cover some cards, so go easy on me. In my personal experience, I deem king a good solid deck. HE DOES HAVE BAD MATCHUPS! But he also has tons of good matchups in the current meta game. Hopefully you all take the time to listen to me cope with King. Enjoy your day and thank you for watching ^^ I missed you all, sorry for the leave of absence. Being sick will do that to you.
Can you tell us wich are the good match ups and the bad match up against the big5 of the format. Talking about BY Luffy, Lucci, Doffy, Pluffy and Bonney. To be honest if the decks doesn't compete 3/5 of these decks it is almost not worthy to bring em up to your locals. Because in locals you always see competitive decks such as these 5 mentioned. Thnx alot and appreciate the effort in trying to succeed with King
@@PawsePlays 😂 for me it’s usopp and Kaku, who I can’t stand , ima need a video for you calling out all one piece characters faces you don’t like and why lol, starting with iceberg and appo
I went in Paris regio with King as I said in a previous video. I went 1-9 Before anything you have to know that I only saw 2 out of 22 mulligan onigashima in my first or second turn (knowing that i was then playin 4 search event, 2 queen search, and of course 4 onigashim + 2 card from draw because I went 2 second almost every game + first card in life ) Game one against Perona BUT the neat part is that it was more of a green perona with Yamato 5c secret Perona 4c black and kept aggro because it was his playstyle and really wasnt ready for this. Game 2 Zoro Game 3 Zoro Game 4 BY Luffy i did what i had to do and bottom life his garp then his 4c kuzan even tho i did not had onigashima and won Game 5 still no onigashima and this time mo big body also despite not attacking them in the beginning i lost without i actually get to play Game 6 against Marco i managed to stay alive clean their board ( still no oni of course) gain more life and go for game BUT ( and i swear on anything i have) when was going for lethal, a judge stopted and because it was time.. Game 7 Nami I do not attack unless they only have a few don active and i have multiple 9k+ attack. I also play one copy of linlinkaido for nami and yellow this one of the few missplay because i should had wait to put them at 2 life before playin it but i didnt, i played it on curve with the gameplan to use leader effect every turn to not use LinDo effect when attacking but i get red rock. And it wasn't that much of a problem because i had jack and a who's who on board to attack and they had only 4 don active so they lose 2 lives this turn. I lost because they managed to defend a 18k + 5 +5 and drew like 20 cards in one turn. Maybe i should have wait for more bigbodies. ( oh and of course i had onigashima on every mulligan..) Game 8 Then Reiju with a ichiji per turn Same game 9 ( + 2 onigashima per mulligan) Then of course a Zoro to end. It was a terrible experience. Not being able to play was awful. I played in side event after and it was almost the same. I only saw 2 lucci and fun enough it was the easiest games of the weekend. The game was really trying to redeem itself: it was the same game : won dice roll , went second play search then onigashima then jack then kuzan and it was pretty much over. I even got a isshou. So yeah i agree on almost everything you said, King has a respond to almost anything in the meta and my list isn't far from yours but as some of my friend said " King in this meta relly need to find the right card in the right matchup" Anyways I'll stay in the King hype train but i will be playin more of pluffy and bpluffy in op09. (Not that draw any better with those leaders to be fair)
This was soooo awesome. Haven’t been to a tournament in a long time. Purple puffy felt awkward to me in 8.5 actually, and couldn’t get into r/p luffy right now. Love them both but I need something else. So I am hyped to do king. Love trying something the is not meta. We will see how it goes. But looks super fun. As always great job
I've been watching your King gameplays and learned a lot! Manage to get a lot of wins in our local shop tournament and sim fights. I'm excited bringing this for next week's flagship event. Keep up the good work!
That's awesome to hear! Glad my videos are helping! Good luck in the tournament! My shops around here...although Gaming Giant, is a gold store... we never have big tournys. We house on regular days upwards of 35ppl. And on the regular world champions, literally come form our store. Yet Ive never seen our store in a "Flag ship" or some sorta big event...we have the means to house them. Yet for some reason...smaller stores hold them.
King is very interesting for me as I like leaders that could use skill each turn cycle, so if I ever build it or play it on sim will shamelessly copy your list, thanks a bunch. Looking forward to robin content
Welcome back man, I was waiting for this video hehe. Nice to know you're ok. Keep up the content, I've been learning a lot from you and this leader who happens to be my favorite so far.
I really appreciate the thorough explanations of both the cards you included and those you didn't include. Get well soon and keep up the great content 🙏
Glad you're feeling better! Love this video format. Felt like 20 minute video. People sleep on shirahoshi. Keep up the great content! Can't wait to try this version out.
Glad you liked it! Shirahoshi is pretty good, I think most people overlook her. She definitely will surprise you with how useful she is with cards like Jack!
I started running the Rebecca Sabo combo specifically cuz of a video you made a couple weeks ago and that was the magic I needed to make this deck highly viable.
I’ve toyed around with adding roughly the same amount of +2k counters, about 16-17. And swapping in SEC Kaido Linlin, having the ability to combo with Sabo blocker against super swarmy decks puts you at board advantage very quickly. Combining that with Sanji blocker means you can drop sanji after using SEC Kaido Linlin for 3 don the next turn, but the set up takes a while and needs a perfect Onigashima curve. This is definitely a late game setup leader, I don’t think many leaders have this unique ability to last into the late game when played correctly.
Thank you for enlightening me on the Sanji 2k, I would have never thought about utilizing him with King. What are your thoughts on 8c Sabo for King as well?
@@jootsfuneral8316 I like sabo, if I wanted using kuzan, I’d use sabo or issho for that spot. Sabo really helps against decks like Kalgara and blue Doffy.
@@PawsePlays have you thought about playing sabo over garp or you want to have some more middle boddies? Also I wanted to ask about running the 1 cost queen searcher just to dig for stage at any cost possible. I understand this takes away spots for other really good cards, and technically the deck can peak higher without them if you just hit stage. Do you think it is consistent enough without them?
I'll be honest, thats something I didnt consider. It works, its cheap and not expensive bs all the big bodies you need don for. So it's something king could pull off :)
Ocean is way to slow, if you’re against an aggro deck and are getting bullied, you drop ocean and it puts you further behind 9/10 times. Ocean is great endgame with kuzan. But that’s about it. I’ve never felt the need to “man wish I drew ocean” the 6c for -2 is high
@@steelspider9331 it’s not good. Or needed currently. You never want to play it on curve, vs other chars big mom, sabo, etc. tons more useful than that king lol.
@@bullying5200 you stall till you get big bodies and don’t push under 3 life on enel. The matchup isn’t difficult as king. I have countless games against Enel in king videos. You play for end game and remove big threats on board. Kaido is a key piece in this matchup 9C Kaido, kills a character and trashes cards in hand.
Doffy probably would have won that match if they kept the pudding in hand. Use it makes you have a new random 5 then go 11k with unlockable leader. Small misplay from opponent there.
@@PawsePlays I'm not arguing the keeping bodies on board part. Just that last little bit of play from them. Been playing Doffy since the beginning and if it was me. Seeing you play two Sabo's to craft a 7 card hand is a very scary thing. Also depends on how many 2k's were in trash. And there was no reason to counter out off the last 5k swing because there is no way for doffy to come back in that board state outside of a lucky trigger. All their eggs was on unblockable Doffy for the game on that last turn. So using pudding to take that lovely crafted hand you had made and force a new hand of 5 that would require you to draw 7k in counter to survive. Instead of dealing with the 7 cards you had chosen just seemed better to me. Granted I am watching from your side, but that is my thought process in this gameplay. But that is the beauty of One piece as well. So many lines of play to choose from can make or break a game. Looking forward to your next video.

Yoo king ❤❤🎉❤.Welcome back we missed u ❤.
Thank you! Glad to be back, it feels empty not making content lol
huge aura!
For ichiji and other sticky cards, have you ever tested black bug to bottom deck them?
I have, black bug is kinda expensive here. But I do like the card, it can be teched in for that very reason
Would you consider playing 2 mansherry in those 2 slots to get the sabo or rebecca back from trash?
I'll be honest, thats something I didnt consider. It works, its cheap and not expensive bs all the big bodies you need don for. So it's something king could pull off :)
What the website you use to form your deck and simulate?
linktr.ee/maebatsu
The client to play OPTCG is from there.
What are your thoughts on running Ocean Sovereignty, or running the 6C brook?
Ocean is way to slow, if you’re against an aggro deck and are getting bullied, you drop ocean and it puts you further behind 9/10 times.
Ocean is great endgame with kuzan. But that’s about it. I’ve never felt the need to “man wish I drew ocean” the 6c for -2 is high
