Truly we do haha! It's such a fantastic art! Super honored to have you checking out my video too! I loved your recent Purple based deck profile for Maste!
Thanks! It is a pretty good choice to work with especially with so much effect removal from more meta decks! Let me know how it goes when you test it!!
Something I think it worth considering especially in your build is the addition of a Revelation of Light engine into the deck. I had a build where I used 2 BT7 TK & Kari to counteract how easy it is for Mastemon to fall behind. Once your opponent realizes you have this, they become less inclined to go for chip swings which could remove a key piece(s) from your security. By adding this 4 card engine, you fetch a key piece since all Gatomon used in the deck are Vaccines, and then you place a blanket 5K reduction on top of your security to really slow your opponent. I never truly made it work since I was coping by running the yellow Nyaromon since I needed the BT16 Salamon to proc, but with your build I feel there's a way to make it work.
two things: wanyamon is crazy. never would have thought of it but it’s an enlightened pick. tried it other day at locals and felt great for considerations, i’d also include the old setter tk. lets you search security but also doubles as security knowledge for patamon
The wanyamon was originally a placeholder for the kokomon that's coming out in EX-8 for my Cendrill deck - and then I though "wait maste plays tamers a lot" and the dp minus is so much fun! Setter TK is always a classic and a great starter card too
Definitely an interesting way to go with the dominimon! I wish i had mine on me to check my ratios properly but my mastemon is an odd hybrid style between aggressive and control by running purple base with the draw trash nyaromon and the st10 angewomon, but i run other choices like the bt4 lucemon for that extra recovery, same with running 1 angewomon x... i know for my megas i run 3 st10 maste, 2 maste ace and 2 falldown mode but i often find myself hard evolving into the st10 maste more and saving my dna plays for the ace and using that to play out the lucemon.... yeah my build has given quite a few playes at my locals headaches as i purposefully force out the grind game with how i play...
Purple base is VERY strong - it’s all about playstyle and how you wanna roll! Both versions are a lot of fun and moving much faster now thanks to amber memory and scrambles!
I would recommend an EX6 Raijiludomon as a tech to force opponents to attack with one of their main bodies before they can take any real actions on their turn. It is great vs the Magnamon X match up as you would be able to Maste Ace before he becomes immune by some other action that turn.
@@carloscalva5771 At least 1, 2 if you think you can fit it in. The more often you see the better you will feel about ending turn with just your angewomon/ladydevimon out haha.
@@kiriocity Yeah! It helps solve the problem of your weak level 5s needing to survive in order for you to ace. I feel like they get bounced or destroyed before I ever have a chance to Ace. I reinspired to run the card again after a real good player in JP named Misao ran it. He's a Maste guru.
Huh, I had no idea that bt14 pata -> bt15 gatomon combo worked, but looking at the rulings around whether you can gain memory when played by mastemon or similar, the conclusion is that if the removal from the security stack is simultaneous with it starting to be in play, it does get to trigger. I really could have seen that ruling going either way... regardless, interesting profile! Personally I do not think bt14 patamon is a card that should have been printed, partially because of not liking how crazily spiky its performance is, so I've stayed away from yellow base myself, but there's still ideas to gather from the rest of the vid; I'd really not thought of burst mode ace since I've always seen this post-ex6 deck as being made to get 1 of each tamer and no more, due to bt11's restrictions and ex6's inherent memory hogging with the trigger condition and effect, but more bt11 mirei always gains memory, and aces always good.. hm. I'm curious though, what about the amber memory boosts do you see as so gamechanging for the deck? I've always felt like post-ex6 the deck basically has enough searching, between both good gatomon having strong conventional searches, ex6 angewomon to filter security, and in yellow base pata to do the same whereas purple can also access more resources through its recursion, and my problem has always been having the deck's "thing" actually be impactful enough to win games, which this doesn't change. I guess it's probably pretty good when trying to do a combo based around ex6 mirei that *doesn't* end the turn? Which is probably a good priority to have. Also, happy to see someone else still running ordinemon, it can turn around games like nothing else in the right circumstances. This is getting a bit far afield from your build in particular, but I don't know anyone who plays maste so I don't have alternative people to bounce ideas off of - what are your thoughts on running more bt8 kari in purple bases (or just generally builds that run bt16 salamon) in order to be able to set memory after spending memory when you play that salamon via a scramble? People have theorised similar things around red/purple imperial iirc, which probably benefits a lot more, but I don't think I've seen the thought floated in maste, and it could theoretically make setters more worth playing. At the same time, might get kinda bricky relative to how useful it actually is, and the 3/3 mirei split is so clean that it's hard to figure out how to even change things to accommodate it... maybe it's just a bad idea, but it's intriguing at least. Edit: Also I was wondering about your choice of egg, over tokomon. What makes the -2k worth it over the card draw, for you? I'd get it if the stated usecase was sniping floodgate rookies, but you mention minusing blockers, and I'm curious which decks you're running into where that's a common concern to deal with? I can't deny though that managing to stack all the minus DP is nice when the ex6 line fully lines up, but with any other stack it seems mediocre to me. Did the amber boost adding consistency mean that getting consistency via the eggs was less important?
I'll try to answer each of these: Mastemon is Greedy with Memory, having Amber Memory that is 2 cost and doesn't require 2 colours to activate, it just needs 1 and it can grab a yellow OR purple which means I don't whiff on a Yellow Mem only hitting purple sources (and vice versa). The Gatos do well at searching... but it is quite a heavy cost (5, 4, or 2). you should join the discord! we have a good handful of players who are versed in Maste! Kari is a good one to run as a memory setter, but in a purple base, your only real security adds would be from angewomon and mastemon... so you wouldn't get the full value, in a yellow base Kari is a pretty good option to work with. I find when I have been playtesting, the Wanya paired with ex6 salamon and gatomon can cause some heafty DP reductions to your opponents and wide blocker boards. which helps if you have to swing with your Ace (and it has no alliance underneath) I've been able to consistently dp- by 6 with my angewomon with barrier which makes for a good cheeky swing at security!
Hey! I just started playing the game and building a few decks such as Grace Novamon, Agubond Ace, Jellymon, and Gammamon! Are you able to make any deck profiles for these cards that might've been updated with some recently released cards- if at all? Thanks in advance!
Joined and wow!! It might be the most impressive discord I've seen! It really feels like an expensive digital space rather than just a place with a bunch of rooms. I've got some work to do on mine! 😅
@@MeApocalypse Welcome to the Mainframe! My server is meant to feel like you are living inside a computer!! This is such a compliment to read - THANK YOU!
The codyTK is still pretty good with its de digivolve and gain a memory - I debated on talking about it in the video too! However with my patamons only being at 4 I felt I wasn’t accessing the full value of the card - plus shadow seraphi can do a good job at de-digivolving mid swing which fights off Magnax better if they don’t blinding ray 👀
Great list! Have you considered running the limited BT13 Geogreymon? feels like a great way to cheat out a free Mirei (if lucky enough), even more if it comes off from a single patamon play
The geogrey was in my deck for quite a long time! Its a fantastically tech choice!!! Its one of those cards I keep playing with. It’s actually in my cendril deck at the moment cause I run more Arisas in that deck compared to my mirei line 😂😂
I think Mastemon will be condemned to be a tier 2 deck eternally unless she receives an Omnimon or Imperial-level support. Also i personally can't seem to find a decent rookie since the promo ukkos were banned, don't get me wrong i love the deck but the problem with memory efficiency and playing your gatos is always present, you give turn, something kills your board (or worse if you play against blue) and that's it. A rookie like gaossmon that lets you play a level 4 or a mirei on deletion or a new Setter Mirei would do wonders, also we need a new dedicated level 7, Ordine has 0 synergy with the new traits and Shinegrey is super risky. Playing in this meta without options such as chaos o heaven's is suicidal in my opinion, a lot of decks become immune to digimon effects nowadays.
Mastemon is a very difficult deck to pilot. Which is why she is very "low tiered". Most of the support she needs to be Meta viable basically makes her a non-Maste deck. I agree she will need a card that helps with memory gain (which is why amber memory and barrier gato are SO important). I find that you don't exactly need the chaos deg anymore so long as you play wider and have ace plays ready to go - you can always put your own digimon into security and it will still trigger the opponent's trashing. I wouldn't run more than 1 CD cause it does often become a dead card in your hand (unless you play the magnadramon that lets you put a card into security). At the end of the day, she needs a card that doesn't have a caveat (like a yellow purple angewomon/ladydevi that lets you play the opposite out)
@@kiriocity chaos has saved me a lot of times against tyrant zephaga blackwar mugen etcetera Sometimes you play it for 4 if you oof an ace Same with Heavens against doru or armors they can't trigger their salvation When the ukkos weren't limited i could rush demon lords and go par on par against nume but not anymore
@@kiriocity It for sure is a tough match-up, but not impossible. MoonMillenniumon and NeoDevimon have been working super well for me against the Blue Flare and Hybrid decks.
@@HiScoreChef I have been tinkering with the moon mill as well - I've seen it in action through others more than I have gotten to play it (moon decks), and it is a GREAT tech card that has a good value for those hybrid matchups.

Revelation would need a kari tamer for sure - it just pairs too well so it would be an experiment to see what to take out to add in both cards !
