Hey there, one thing to add on the first combo is that if you actually have cartesia and deployment, you should summon albaz, special cartesia, then fire off opening. This way if you get ashed on branded fusion, you still have ways to get to mirrorjade (my usual go to is make gran, send rindbrum, on opp's turn use rindbrum, fuse wtih their board, get mirrorade. That is basically 2 disruptions just from that, also since a monster left the extra deck, you can use gran to summon quaertis or lulu depending of the match-up)

I really appreciate the explanation in these videos. It gives me insight on why certain cards are being played during chains or revealing alternatives depending game state. I know it's annoying to the content creator or sometimes the viewer to announce what each card does but reminding people what cards do helps memorize them since sometimes people read cards either don't understand them or just straight up don't read. It all helps understanding each cards purpose and not just straight away do the combo without an explanation like 97% of all these combo tutorial videos. In which case defeats the purpose of understanding a combo or the deck and how to fully utilize them.

VERY nice video!! A lot of cool combos that are not obvious if you are not playing the deck. One note I want to make about the 3rd test hand, when you activate the Branded Fusion, you could summon Rindbrum, activate Mirrorjade dumping the Albion yo GY (cost), negate Mirrorjade effect with Rindbrum. This leads to the same board but you have rindbrum instead than Bystial Lubellion, which have more interactions (you'll have less resources without the Branded Lost but +1 negate +1 pop with Rindbrum).

If you already used mirrojade, is better to fusion mirrojade and cartesia, so you can use queen effect to simmon mirrojade and have another banish

Nice video, On the first hand, up until the mirrorjade, you could chain cartesia to lubellion. Then fuse cartesia and lubellion to get granguignol and them lubellion resolves fusing itself and albaz away for mirrorjade. This way you use lubellion twice.
@YamiElut
@YamiElut 9 ай бұрын
If Lubellion was met with something like imperm there or if I didnt go the Albion line then yes, but otherwise holding the cartesia fuse for later is important in order to trigger branded lost on turn 1

I play the Puppet personally but not as my main plan, mostly as a "Yeah why not" option, Nadir is one card I also love, it forces me to think about what to do without my ED and it makes for some very intricate plays; the other two cards I cannot afford and don't really want, I tried them but I don't enjoy using those staples, having Branded in a more pure way just makes me happier and have more fun, especially experimenting with the Despia field spell which can be a Branded Fusion Fusion its own if you have already materials in hand or field

in the first test hand, i would have sent the cartesia for opening. i reccomend valuing the actual trap effect of retribution, and since u went for the albion line, the moment you activate jade the retribution becomes live. its a rare form of actual negation, which this deck doesnt have a lot of

Thats fine as well since ad lib was in grave as long as you get to branded in red i think youre pretty set Sometimes i dont like to shotgun the cartesia fuse on turn 1 though and potentially save it for opponents turn, and making albion was just a faster way to red But the fun of branded is these little choices and doing things slightly differently depending on the situation

how can u use mirrorjade his banish again after u rev him? :o i thought it was once per turn :o like how is the ruling for it ^^
@YamiElut
@YamiElut 7 ай бұрын
Mirrorjade’s text doesnt have the standard “you can only use this effect of “Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon” once per turn”, instead it says after you activate the banish effect “also this card cannot use this effect next turn”. Long story short, if mirrorjade banishes something and then leaves the field and returns (either through ad lib + branded in red or cartesia fuse + quem reborn) it is not considered the same “card”, so it can use the banish effect again

Im pretty new to the minutiae of Yugioh rules, how does using cartesia's quick effect fusion with the first hand protect aluber from imperm or vieler? Does his effect not get negated if he gets fused away?
@YamiElut
@YamiElut 7 ай бұрын
Imperm, veiler, and similar negation cards must target a monster when activated. They do not negate the effects of the monster until both players agree to resolve the chain. If CL1 is Aluber, CL2 is Imperm targeting Aluber, and CL3 is Cartesia fusion, it resolves like this: CL3: Cartesia fuses herself and Aluber into Granguignol/Masquerade/whatever CL2: Imperm has lost its target being Aluber and fails to negate his effects CL1: Aluber searches a Branded spell/trap from the deck The analogy I like to use is to think of targeted negation cards like a sniper rifle. When activated they target a monster on the field, like looking through the scope. If the chain resolves and the Imperm has lost “line of sight”, then it will fail to hit Aluber and will not negate his effects

@@YamiElut Thanks, man. That makes it really clear. In a situation like that, does the opposing player still send their imperm to the GY after the chain resolves?
@YamiElut
@YamiElut 7 ай бұрын
@@arkisys yes, imperm is still lost out of their hand/field and goes to grave. Another helpful little factoid for you too: if the imperm was previously set and successfully negates a monster, the spell/trap column it just activated in negates all other spells or traps in that column for the rest of turn. However, if imperm was set, activated, and loses its target (thereby failing to negate the monster effect) it also does not negate the spells or traps in its column either for that turn and effectively “fizzles”
