For yellow vax: 1x training is because it opens up a lot of lines that close out games 5 memory for Ace + Mitama to get a rush body, or 8 memory for revelation + mitama through evo for 2 extra checks. And Salamon is mainly ran because it's card draw, that's a lot more relevant then the recovery effect most of the time.
So in the case of blinding ray, it is actually super versitile. As you said, it can make fanglong option cheaper, but if i have an azulong it could get me to the memory threshold to evo fanglong if I dont have the option. it more than likely put another deva/4 sovereign in the trash for fanglong to have more sources to bottom deck when he swings. There are cheeky cases where you are at 4 security and you blinding ray yourself to 3, and then antyla end of attack will recover it back. But my favorite use of it is in the end game when you have a fang out, but not enough memory to go into a sovereign on your turn, you can blinding ray to get yourself to 3 memory > evo into a sovereign > swing fanglong and he'll trash that last security. there are other uses, in one of the games against lichi it was mainly used so I don't give him too much memory.

If blinding ray hits an archtype card in security it makes card positions 3 cheaper instead of 2 and fills the trash for fanglong

Did you run into any mirage? That’s the one mu I’ve been struggling with on deva
@@straubs625 I ran into one mirage, and I'd say 99% of the time it's a wash. Honestly I got lucky with how the matchup went
regarding gigimon in jes. for crimson blaze...7k destroys deva
I’m so excited for BT16. I’m curious if we’re going to be getting a new ban list
