I like how we thought Kashtira and Tearlaments were entirely UR because Konami knew they were the best decks but it turns out we're just doing it to every new archetype now that people are invested
Always get green on field. Always. It doesn't matter if you think red would be better, green will save your ass by making all your mikanko cards immune to targeting if you can slap an equip on it.
Well the reason they don’t ban maxx c is probably because master duel is a global software, and one of the main differences between OCG and TCG theory is maxx c and they probably don’t want OCG players to be put off by having such a ginormous theory shakeup, alongside having to learn about TCG exclusive stuff like the kaijus. Not saying it’s a good reason (since you could make the same argument about TCG players who joined after maxx c’s ban having to learn how to play around it), but if I had to guess, that’s probably their logic
@theswarmsquad3606 Bruh, ocg players also hate the cockroach wdym "Oh, they'll have a theort shake without Maxx "C" " When a card is unfair and boring to play against IT'S boring and unfair to play against it. Don't try to be the devil's lawyer
@@theswarmsquad3606 MD has deviated notably from the banlists of both OCG and TCG though. Many decks now pilot completely different from any format's history with them. Rest in peace my nigga Grass. May you remain at 3 forever in heaven.
@@mellamosteve331 do i take more time? yes, but mikanko is a crazy simple deck. it's not like infernoid, or madolche, or whatever else, where you can make a massive array of moves (anymore. banning isolde kinda ended all that), its a deck that has about 5 plays in a turn, and a single goal when going second.
Now listen bro....I know it sounds crazy. But Mikanko splash in Infernoble is SOOOO peak. Think about it. Ha Re is a fire warrior. Searchable with durandal. Small World on any fire warrior -> ash -> Ohime is real. Sending Mayowashidori and Water Rondo with Isolde to summon from deck is real. Small World for any fire warrior -> ash -> Dogoran is real. Ohime can equip the infernoble arms you send off Isolde TO YOUR GUYS TO GET THEIR SEARCH/RECOVERY EFFECTS THAT TURN. She can also quick effect snatch steal on your opponent's turn WHICH ACTIVATES CHARLEMAGNE'S EFFECT TO POP WHEN SOMETHING IS EQUIPPED TO A MONSTER. I assure you it's quite a bit of fun...
I mean tbf, you can already recover the arms sent by Isolde by just going into Artorigus to equip them and then searching before making Ra'ten with him and Isolde.
Komoney should've change the theme of this archetype into theme park instead of miko, because the emotional rollercoaster you gonna experience playing it
I just climbed from the bottom of gold to Master 3 for the first time with Mikanko and only 7 losses. Super fun deck that is way too strong blind second .
As a person who got a c in mathematics when i was in highschool, I can tell you that it isnt actually 2.5% chance to get ur, or rather it is a 2.5% chance to get a ur but a 0.0025% to get the ur you ACTUALLY WANT.
Brought mikanko to locals last saturday so many people didnt understand what i was doing how are you all practicing for ycs richmond but dont read your opponents cards
With this or sphreeze turbo back then, I've never felt like dabbling in masochism 🤔🤔🤔 I actually feel untouchable cuz I attack opponent's behemoth yet opponent takes the damage

Mikanko is a nightmare for dinomorphia player to handle and ultimate counter to them as ferret flame have no effect with due 0 att stat. So, their have to play storming mirror force which useless for other deck.
@@FortuneKOF dinomorphia really struggles against any deck that deals damage in roundabout ways, such as reflecting battle damage or attacking directly. The deck has lots of counter traps and things that it can use to counter strategies like this, but a lot of that can be hand dependent. It's the payoff of their high risk high reward playstyle, because their life points are so low any little bit of damage can win. I will also say that some of this has to do with the build of dinomorphia, I personally sacrifice some things so that I can play a small evolution pill engine to bring out ultimate conductor tyranno in order to counter decks like this, but in doing so I have to sacrifice some of the non-engine traps or hand traps.
@@InfernalEnby even top player in master duel meta dinomorphia player struggle to counter Mikanko and Purrely. However both weak to 1 unpopular floodgate called power filter. Master rank infest with Mikanko and Purrely, is good to side power filter in, since it is one floodgate card counter both deck.
Can confirm this, ive been burn them by Lava Golem too often on Fusion XYZ event, their Trap can't protect from Golem burn, Rex is useless vs Mikan girl 😂
@@sabnarose rexterm floodgate effect is not like skill drain. But it more like majesty fiend like effect prevent opponent to active any monster effect on the field. Rexterm cannot negate lingering effect / passive effect like 5 material expurrely Noir that have effect uneffected by opponent activation effect and also any tower like effect.
I've played against these things exactly once. I had never seen them before and I was using Cyber Dragons. I thought I was being smart when I left Cyber Dragon Hertz on the field and was like "Fine, attack it. 80 turn clock" Then he Kaijued it. I eventually won. I managed to get Chimeratech Rampage Dragon out and pop all his equip spells, then attack for game. That replay got saved.
I have never had an interesting game vs mikanko. Either you have the out and the mikanko player gets absolutely steamrolled, or you don't have a way to interact with their untargetable, undestroyable creatures and backrow so you get steamrolled. The theory behind them is cool, but in practice, just an incredibly frustrating archetype.
I love Mikano as my comfort deck. Low-stress, 0 brain power deck. Win or lose the dice roll. "You go first king, I am going to just Kaiju and hit hard." I don't get what MBT was having so much trouble with this deck? Why are you timing out?
@@DxShadow7 You can't pass. Mikanko can OTK on open board with double-edge sword. You have to commit something to keep the other player from activating spells. The game is decided by who drew more Kaijus
@@DxShadow7if you're forced to go first by another mikanko player and you have ohime in your starting hand, you just setup mikanko rivalry, set it and pass with no monsters on field. Pray to every God personally for your opponent not to have double edged sword and a line to mayowashidori already. If they don't, they'll usually pass on an open field. Then you just setup ohime with another mikanko on field and mayowashidori to do the open field otk using the rivalry

Yeah Hu Li can protect and get the Trap for follow up and interruption
Yeah it protects u from targeting but whenever I play my opponent always has a non target banish or destroy
