Man said “how can I improve this deck?” And added two more bricks to a deck with a bunch of bricks in it then scuffed some wins by floodgating their opponent.
@@DDgaming2478won a case tourney with Unchained in tear zero format in 2022. I topped an Indy regional with 400+ people with Unchained back in July of 2023 and day 2 of the YCS with Unchained lab after that and honestly I consider my case tourney win to be a bigger W than just topping a regional with a meta deck. You don’t need tops to criticize deck building theory my guy, if that were the case, anyone with a playset of fenrirs and hand traps would suddenly be worth listening to.
@HapsterHap hey man i appreciate the criticism but it was never about specifically improving the deck. it was about going towards a specific strategy and compromising the card choices. it looks to me that you thought this video was about finding the perfect build for unchained and i can tell you this isn't at all on a generic level as explained in the video. the deck was engineered so that going 1st would be a lot more optimal which definitely brought me results. this has been tested in my locals and i've topped couple times in which the way it was built was a solid foundation after seeing the results. i didn't mention in this the profile since i forgot but the two bricks can easily be discard food for the gryphon line in worst case scenario so you're not really struggling for anything AND you get to lock the opponent on top of that. the only true brick i can say would be the mayakaushi trap + requiem but thats the price for including those options. any other cards you don't see in typical unchained build works just as bad as dead handtraps or talent. i have tested builds where it was a lot more straight forward (2 talents + 12-15 handtraps) and it did not feel good at all when they just stop you midway.(at least for me) lastly, as mentioned in the video; unchained can still pull through going 2nd. worst case scenario we have to depend on the side deck to re-configure the wincon fun fact: i was playing for 1st place in last round and lost to voiceless because he had everything while i bricked so yes this deck does have its limits but had things been a little bit different such as not losing die roll, i might've been 1st place instead. its just part of the game and luck goes both ways where if you have it then you have it. i hope the reasoning makes at least some sense to you. if you have more questions or doubts ill be more than happy to enlighten you on the list :)
Good for him for doing well, but this list looks like a brick fest IMO Maybe being 44 helps with that but I’d be worried of opening suboptimal most hands based off the amount of 1-of cards you wouldn’t want to draw in this deck
i agree with you, this list does carry a lot of bricks. however, it came down to a ''pick your poison'' for me. you either play the handtrap war with your opponent and be constantly on top decking mode hoping he doesn't have more handtraps or you ensure that your play goes through and he doesn't have much more resources to stop you. i chose the latter and luckily(keyword) it paid off ^^
@@jaimeYGO I think I’m skeptical of all the bricks because I tend to draw the ALL when I play the deck lol If I could get all the benefits without drawing them I’d do it in a heartbeat lol
@@Eric.mov_ lol no worries i can definitely relate. as much as i despise the d/d/d package i have to play it. the pros outweighs the cons so its a risk im willing to take. same goes for the mayakashi trap. there's definitely nothing wrong with removing all the bricks and play strong generic cards but you're also removing very strong options. think of it like a high risk high reward type of thing.
The lighting and the view angle in this video are very nice, just wanted to point that out
Love the list!! Do you think you’ll still play the Mayakashi rollback line when fiendsmith comes out? Also, what did your average hands look like?
congrats on the top! unchained forever the best deck!

@@HapsterHap damn its been awhile. sad.
Sorry but what are the 2 final cards in the main deck?
i think u mean the mayakashi trap and transactional rollback
