I always like hearing your thoughts on Branded it has helped me dial in my own deck and I've been seeing a lot more success. Wish I had the cash for Thrusts but since I don't I'm running a heavy Crossout + Handtrap + D.Barrier package and it's actually felt pretty good.

it hurts a lot tho since handtraps are so bad in branded and you cant run them all
@revengetwofold2 ай бұрын
@@No__Vanity For sure, it's got its problems but until I can pivot to running thrusts it feels about as good as I can get. The hit to consistency does hurt a lot though.

Try running two shroudion’s; That isn’t to bad, helps with deck thinning and getting the special summon for Cartesia

I use 3 shroudion when I run Allure and High Spirits, esp with Keeper and Super Poly engines

If I did bump Shroudion I'd definitely consider 3 Cart too with that in mind

I don't play paper but I keep considering it, for now my only practice with Branded happens in MD where it's considerably less consistent. My version of the deck is overall the same but I do still play superpoly which helps a lot against the still legal baronne and such. One thing I have noticed though is that people in the TCG tend to skip branded banishment. Why is that? Yeah the superpoly effect doesn't come up much right now but just reborning a fusion is something I always liked. I also didn't see Kitt in this list I think but I guess in a format where basically no cards were hit there's no reason to run it?
@YamiElut2 ай бұрын
Banishment is not a bad card, but I think it can sometimes be perceived as "win more" in a lot of cases. I have sided the card before if the superpoly effect is good enough, but I just have not ever felt a real need for it in the main. Kitt is occasionally played in tcg, but never at more than 1 copy. One reason as you said is a lot of the power cards have not been hit in tcg like they have in MD, but also Kitt only really shines if the build plays Branded in High Spirits, especially at multiple copies, and is getting Kitt as a free special summon or to recycle something from banished. Usually this is not needed and Aluber is strictly better in terms of card advantage. If Branded Fusion was at 1 and the need to recycle it was more prevalent Kitt would be a mainstay in every list.

Love your branded vids! You have helped me a lot! So I’ve been running a 60 card build and it’s amazing. The kick is that I run 3 tear planet with havnis and sheiren.. I love the 500 attack book on all fusions and a free pop once I use a tear name for fusion. Do you think this is a good move?
@dragon-id5uj2 ай бұрын
ive heard of sheirren tech but never this extended package! That sounds super cool. Another recent tech I'd never seen was Sky Striker MULTIROLE. they play it so their Branded Fusion and other spells can't be stopped! it's so neat how people continue to come up with creative innovations with this deck.

(I don’t run handtraps so not being able to use ash for the rest of the duel doesn’t hurt).. I love the tear fields spell though. Usually makes everything just big enough where they can’t beat over it! And branded doesn’t run a field spell so why not!

i have a question, which card(s) can substitute quem and the bystials? mostly asking for the quem
@YamiElut2 ай бұрын
Quem is a difficult one to replace since no card does everything she can in one. Part of the power of the two Bystials (specifically Saronir) is to get you to other spells through the graveyard when paired with Quem's on summon effect or Albion the Shrouded Dragon's send to GY. Without two of those 3 pieces it will limit you in certain scenarios. I would probably either swap in a tech of your choice like the patchwork engine/super poly/etc, and/or bump Cartesia to 3 for strictly more gas

Hello really like your vids i wanted to ask some questions about branded i basically have 3x the albaz strike structure decks 3x alluber and 3x opening 2x super polly tradegy fusion deployment branded in red branded in high spirits branded in white and the patchwork engine i also have rindrum garura chimera quaertis dragostapelia masquaerade and muddragon for the extra deck now i can afford to buy the beastials cartesia and granguignol right now as an upgrade that would leave quem and sanctifire for the near future waht i wanted to ask is what direction should i take the deck until i will be able to add things like thrust and if it is worth to go to the branded chimera route since it seems more affordable right now
@YamiElut2 ай бұрын
If you plan on getting Quem/Sanctifire/etc pretty soon then I think for a bit you'll be fine with the patchwork engine as a substitute (and even after getting Quem you can still totally play it). Feel free to try Chimera as well but just know that Chimera Branded and Branded Despia are completely different playstyles, so if you want to play Branded Despia due to its style you may not be as happy playing Chimera, and vice versa
