Don't worry, you weren't annoying during our featuring match!

I was the Bird-Up player! My team and I got those mats the day before when we found them at a good price (they're usually like 150, we got them for 80 each). I already had my Hermos dice, so the others bought their Timaeus and Critias dice that day too. Honestly I was flattered that our game had him consider bird up as a real deck to consider this format.

Vegas is honestly a super great place for a YCS, because there's really a lot of stuff to do around the area. Omega Mart is pretty cool too, though it's a one-time thing.
Been playing a gold pride-punk-kash list for the baronne access and honestly, it's a damn good deck. Auto wins against certain decks that can't out PEP and going first against trap decks it's an auto win

Overall been having a good time. Initially ran the Gold pride spell, but honestly right now it is not good at all, it's 50/50 on it out is a brick or not even with a larger Gold Pride engine cause even with the larger Gold Pride engine it feels like you don't draw the right punk stuff so it's kinda good at these ratios EDIT: Took out Avramax for Second Psychic End Punisher and cut 3rd raigeki to put 3rd imperm and cut Ogre Dance down to 1 to make it a clean 40
@EddieintheLoop I like the list, but no way you can call an auto win against lab, even if going first. No evenly matched protection, nib protection (yes you can extend through a nib, but you still lose a lot of resources for a crackback). Lab can set skill drain to turn the entire board off and slowly push through the board. Post side, golem/Sphere mode rolls in with auto win buttons. Again, not saying it's a bad deck. I like the list. But it's not an auto win no matter how you spin it.
@@warriorofgod2700 that's why you make Baronne, it's pretty easy to make. Now obviously if they open lava golem it hurts a lot, but that's any matchup if someone opens lava golem evenly for basically any deck lmao. If they don't open with that which usually happens then they end up summoning Ariana which you negate with either dangerous gabu or imperm which then forces them to set 4 then in end Phase you use sharakusai to go into amazing dragon, send all 4 to hand and then you just win. It really is a majority of the time what happens. Now if they open perfectly, sure, but again, that kinda hand would fuck any deck, not just this one so assuming they open that every time is a little disingenuous
@EddieintheLoop I get what you're saying. But if barronne is the only negate on board, it's not too terribly hard to contest it with multiple set backrow. And if arianna is what gets negated, well, that was relatively simple to deal with. A prosperity/extrav digs rather deep for game 1 board breakers, and a mained evenly forces the barronne to hold its negate, or burn it, leaving the punk trap as the only remaining negate. Again, not saying it would be easy, or I'd see the outs every game. Obviously I haven't played your deck before so I may be missing something obvious. I just don't think it's an auto win is all
I ended up playing Danny in the finals of one of the master duel events and his computer ended up dying in game 2 anyway lol. They wouldn’t let him leave to plug it in in the middle of a match and there were no plugs ins inside the venue anywhere
@@Phreps As someone who’s been testing the deck, it really isn’t. It’s really good for turn 3 + shenanigans, and even sometimes as a Revolt target if your setup was good enough turn 1
100% agree on your take about kashitira. I did not enjoy watching any of the kashtira matches on the YCS. The deck doesn't seem particularly strong, but it's one of the most unbearably boring decks I've ever seem.
Too may ties? Yeah, that's people at X1 agreeing to draw. Imo we should not allow ties in the final round of Swiss. Fuck the time rules, you gotta play it out.
Name a more iconic duo then Cap G and the worst takes on the internet. Kash might be mid but the ability to lock out nine zones, no matter how fragile and situational it might be, is in no way good for game. We are having the Mystic Mine argument all over again of, "Just draw the outs LMAO!"
Shangri-la only needed a hopt in order to make kashtira fair, interesting even. But no, Konami had to be Konami once more. Maybe they will do the smart thing and ban mind hacker, its the main enabler to do full zones lock
That was literally the perfect hand the guy got had two Shangri-ira on the field. I'm not short-selling, Kashtira, but that is not the average field, just like that Tear game with all cards on the field wasn't average match
@@prinnyking4926 I'm aware. That's why I'm saying no combo should be able to lock out that many zones, no matter how good your hand is. Hampering your opponents play by locking out a few zones is fine. Locking out 9 of your opponents 12 zones isn't.
So for me, i think it might be time to fight fire with fire how i intend to do so is my own personal idea but let's just say we are going back in time to "fair" yugioh but where i have all the control in the world while the meta players wonder what happened as for the rise of Kash we knew from the stuff that came from the OCG what the deck's skill set was and that's to be the fun police where you don't get to play at all just my thoughts on what happened in Vegas and shoutout to my buddy who made day 2 on despia
I'm also a Kashtira hater, but mainly because the deck has like a 100% WR against any Pendulum deck including my beloved Dracoslayers. Just... Shangri lock both Pend zones is so frustrating.
People think nibiru is a godsend against kashtira. It’s really only okay. You need cards like lancea, flying or contact c yo really stop them and not lose anything
In response to MBTs rant at the end of the video about how he feels about Kashtira: personally I like the idea of the zone locking but I have two problems with the deck. The first is Arise-Heart. He gets so much material so quickly and a facedown banish on any card as a quick effect is just so devastating, even without Shangri-Ira. The second is Unicorn. I think the card should have banished randomly and only until the end of the turn. It just kills so many decks and even if you limited it Shangri-Ira would just summon it during the standby, it's a card that really just shouldn't exist
Branded lost says the ACTIVATIONS of your fusion effects can't be negated, like with a counter trap and negate activation monster effects. It doesn't say the effect itself can't be negated.
@@noble9520 the first line is literally: The activation of your cards AND EFFECTS that include an effect that fusion summons a fusion monster cannot be negated
@bakersdozzzen6553 Correct. The ACTIVATION of your cards (example: polymerization and branded fusion) and effects that include an effect that fusion summons a fusion monster (example: Fallen of Albaz and Blazing Cartesia) cannot be negated. Since Ash unfortunately doesn't negate the activation it still works.
@bakersdozzzen6553 Yugioh is like a whole other language I get the confusion. Branded Losts text stating 'Card effects' basically means an effect activating that is already face up on the field. I kind have another example. You normal summon Fallen of Albaz with Branded Lost. He has a Card Effect that Activates on summon that includes the words Fusion summon. Now your opponent has 2 face down cards. Solemn Strike and Infinite Impermenance. Solemn Strike negates the Activation of a monster Effect. Impermanence target a monster negate its effects. The difference between the two is that Strike negates the activation and Imperm doesn't negate activation. Hope that helps a little.
