I played you round 3 at Edison regionals a few weeks back. You destroyed me with this deck. Your video is very useful as I hope to play this deck at Philly. Thanks for all the info!
Question: In your other Despia tips and tricks video, you moved Mirrorjade from the field to dodge negation and said the effect would still resolve. Why doesn’t Chimera’s effect not resolve? I’m still newish to the game and wondering why some effects resolve when the card is moved and why some card effects don’t resolve.
The reason for this is the effect was already activated and thus will resolve. Similarly if you activated chimera and then used comedy to remove from field it would resolve. In this example, the chimera is summoned and banished same chain before it gets window to trigger at resolution of chain.
So wouldn't chaining Ghost Reaper Winter Cherries CL2 in response to Lubellion be an illegal activation if they wait till you declare your materials? Same thing with Rivalry of Warlords, they would have to chain it as soon as Lubellion's effect was activated (and 1 card was sent as cost obviously) but they can't just wait until you move materials around and then react. Legality aside such a late response causes a mess and it's kind of unfair IMO since they're not supposed to know what you're fusing yet, they only know a fusion effect is activated. Not to mention it would be a big headache in a tournament for me to always have to declare what monster I was fusing at the same time as I'm selecting materials. I'd rather select my materials (knowing I have multiple legal fusion monsters to fuse with) and then only reveal the monster when it hits the field. And at the point it's too late for them to respond since I would have already asked them "do you have a response to Lubellion's effect?" P.S. Thanks a ton for making these videos on Branded combos and tips, I can't wait to watch your mirror match commentary :)
So to clarify: If the opponent summons Lubellion and activates its effect, and I chain Cherries to banish Mirrorjade, the opponent CANNOT shuffle Albaz and Mirrorjade to re-summon Mirrorjade, correct? They'd have to Summon another appropriate Fusion. Do you have a link or something that clarifies that ruling? My locals has a lot of Despia and I'd expect a lot of pushback if I tell 'em that.
They would not be able to, as the last thing to happen was Cosmic resolving not the Branded in Red. Torrential is a when effect meaning the last thing to happen In a chain must be the summon of a monster.
Thanks for the tips! There's just so many good cards with this deck that I'm having trouble finding my favorite deck list. I'm still trying Brave Branded currently. Do you have a list you've been finding success with?
You can activate dd crow before end phase tho, and banish the Albion. Then when it gets to end phase, it’s no longer in GY and can’t activate its effect
@@averagegatsby29 It's already activated in the grave and met it's condition to resolve, you CAN chain crow to it, but it wouldn't change the end result, the turn player would still get their search
Omg my opponent played branded Lost in Master Duel Yesterday and I accidentally ashed their Branded Fusion. Aaaaand it Resolved! Negating their fusion. I interrupted their fusions 2 times that game What does that card even do?
Minor error at 2:10, I should have been shuffling back Albaz + Mirrorjade, not 2 Mirrorjade, my bad! Everything else still applies, though 😤

Please do more videos showing this type of tips. Thank you 🙏
Wow , as a returning noob player these plays are crazy, shows how skill really is a factor in yugioh
Great despia knowledge and theory, all your vids really helped out!!

Wow thank you! This has been very informative
So to clarify: If the opponent summons Lubellion and activates its effect, and I chain Cherries to banish Mirrorjade, the opponent CANNOT shuffle Albaz and Mirrorjade to re-summon Mirrorjade, correct? They'd have to Summon another appropriate Fusion.

link to the judge chart pls
Just realized in the nesh iron man, opp couldve ogered the Albaz preventing the albion
Bro i like the deck more with edge imp chain but thnx for the vid i learned a lot 🔥🔥🔥
Love your videos, very informative
at 8:09 would the cyclone user be able to torrential tribute on a new chain?
They would not be able to, as the last thing to happen was Cosmic resolving not the Branded in Red. Torrential is a when effect meaning the last thing to happen In a chain must be the summon of a monster.

Cool video!
Do you think the pure variant is a lot more common in the TCG because of the absence of Maxx C?
that's a good observation. maybe. however the pure variant is just so beautifully consistent.
why cant crow chain to albion at end phase to change its location therefore stopping its effect
DD crow doesn't negate, you have to prevent albion from activating in the first place
chaining crow to its effect does nothing to stop it
You can activate dd crow before end phase tho, and banish the Albion. Then when it gets to end phase, it’s no longer in GY and can’t activate its effect
Yes, that's what was covered in the video. But the post I was replying to asked about chaining crow to Albion
@@averagegatsby29 It's already activated in the grave and met it's condition to resolve, you CAN chain crow to it, but it wouldn't change the end result, the turn player would still get their search
yes, we're in agreement here
Omg my opponent played branded Lost in Master Duel Yesterday and I accidentally ashed their Branded Fusion. Aaaaand it Resolved! Negating their fusion.
I interrupted their fusions 2 times that game
What does that card even do?
Branded lost prevents negations on activation. Ash negates the effect.
Branded lost vs negation of spell card. *example of siegfied or cyber dragon Infintie
pure varient is miles better than the brave version
