Well clearly, this matchup is not totally fair. One engine/mechanic counters the other, and this was evident in playtesting as well. I'm definitely thinking of showcasing the losing deck in another match on my channel so it has a chance to UNLEASH its full power (it is also a super fun deck to pilot, though sometimes challenging/tricky to bring out its full potential - you have to be very careful and think ahead about what cards you choose to trash from hand). Despite saying that though, I think it had a very good chance of winning this match. For example, if the Lv.4 it trashed at the end of its 2nd Turn was the BT13 version and not the ST14 one, I believe the presence of that inheritable would have changed the outcome. But who knows - cos the other side would have had to play differently around that as well. And now that we've gone deep enough that spoilers should be okay... I AM SO HAPPY THE MIRAGEGAOGAMON DECK IS SO FUNCTIONAL NOW. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAY SINCE BT-04. OF COURSE, IT'S DEFINITELY NOT TIER 1 MATERIAL. BUT IT WORKS NOW, AND IT FEELS GOOD TO PLAY. Now I can't help but wish that Masaru and Touma will clash in the finals. Considering the matchups, it's quite possible. Masaru being Tier 1 has a good chance of punching his way through the left bracket, though he might fall to Yggsdrasil is the Knights high roll. In the right bracket, Touma already counters the bird gang's [On Delete] shenanigans (and even being able to bounce their Tamers), and I foresee his bouncing to be rather effective on both Alphamon and Leopardmon as well. However, it's always a bit of a gamble with MirageGaoga as the draws you give to your opponent could contain the cards they need to turn the tables on you. In any case, see yall in the Quarterfinals!

“STOP WAKING ME UP” I feel this one on a personal level Belphemon

I can see that proto gizumon's effect represents how it destroys Digimon in the anime and I like how Thomas and Nicolai work together

Gotta say I honestly thought Mr. Sleepy could take the win despite the advantages NotGaruru had. A truly good fight though, both decks got to show their capabilities really well.

The deck I've been waiting for! Beyond stoked to see Mirage out some work in after all this time, and I can't wait to see where he goes in this tournament!

Aw damn it. Was really hoping belphemon would win so we could get another video with it. With Ravemon down the only remaining deck in the cup I’m interested in is royal knights

I can't hahahaha! "Zzzzzzzzz...." "STOP WAKING ME UP!" Seriously speaking though, the matchup between the 2 is very interesting to say the least, I didn't know Eyesmon was able to play itself when trashed from hand, being something that Belphe's deck is capable off. On the other hand, it's good to see that BT4 Thomas being a good ally in the deck once more with all those shenanigans. (Psst... on 6:18, you said 5 cost but the option costs 6, however you did push the memory for its original cost, so you didn't misplay, only misspoke)

It was obvious who was going to win, but it was entertaining none the less. Can't wait for the next round because several decks I enjoy are in it. It's a but much for me to want leopardmon to make it to semi's, but we'll see how it goes.

Like always an amazing video. Hoped for belphe to win. Now only 2 decks are left that I hope for to win the final. Shinegrey or Yggrdrasil.

Nice battle. You really showed Kurata who's boss, Thomas!

So awesome to see MirageGaogamon finally pull this off. It's been a long time coming!

"A mimir" the deck

Fun match, but I am sad my pick didn't get to move on to show it's play-style more. Let's see; quarter finals up next; who am I rooting for? Probably...Examon, Yggdrasil, Alphamon, and ...maybe Red Bird actually. Lots of dark horses there, I can already tell; but they're just the more fun decks to watch so what can you do.

great video, i love mirage , maybe something to correct is at 00:41 bt11 gaomon trash the rest of the cards that u didnt pick

Best of one with no side deck really highlights how some matchups really are “if they’re at least semi-competent playing the deck, I lose.”

I loved this match (Sure it may have been a bit one sided) but hey, I'm a simple man, I see a Digimon TCG round, I watch Also, I kinda use your videos to get ideas for decks I'd like to look into myself so they help a lot

Thoma: If that idiot can burst evolve... Then SO CAN WE! GAOMON!! Gaomon: RIGHT, MASTER!!! Kurata: I-impossible! Th-this goes against my research!

Hope this time the winners of each round can move to next round, definetly wanna see a battle od shinegreymon against Gaomon deck :)

I’ve been so excited for Burst Mode Gaoga, and loved this match showcasing how good it is! Can’t wait to do shenanigans with multiples of both copies of Thomas. Also, it wasn’t relevant here, but important to note that you trash what you don’t grab with BT11 Gaomon, you never know when that comes up but it really does bite you in the ass

Excellent content as well, thanks for the video.

Alright MirageGaogamon! Hang on... Thomas has to fight Christi in the next round. This tournament gets more and more interesting

Best content on youtube!

as expected from thoma he knows the tactic to take down the demon lord

I knew Belphemon would get stomped. To be honest that is how a few matchups in this set go. Marcus counters royal knights for example. Still a good match to see miragegaogamon's powers.

Do you use tabletop simulator for this? What mod do you use? Looks a bit different than the one I see frequently recommended.

As soon as I heard the hero music I knew it was over

Bt11 Gaomon trashes after search instead of bot decking the rest which is so bad

Only 2 Deadly Demons remaining: Barba and Levia

Whats the killer background music

Im sorry if this is a dumb question, but why did you only attack with belphemon and not the others aroubd the 10:30 mark?

7:22 I'm not so sure but i think you can trash the top Belphemon rage mode after sleep mode is remove, because both of the inherited effects will trigger at the same time and you can choose to trigger the upper rage mode to remove sleep mode first then the lower rage mode after which can still trigger because it already check the condition of sleep mode when the turn end. Correct me if I'm wrong.

4:30 just wondering, why didnt you attack with gaoga before digivolving into mirage? level 5 or lower will get destroyed anyways plus you can use your tamer effect

BT11 gaomon doesn't send the rest to deck bottom, the cards you don't pick up are trashed.

hey im one of the new subscriber on your channel! i wonder the name of which u using app! and how could i get this app?

Ok, so we have the demon lords of Pride, Lust, Sloth, Wrath and Gluttony (Lucemon, Lilithmon, Daemon/Creepymon Belphemon and Beelzemon), how long do you think we gotta wait before Leviamon and Barbamon appear?

still wanna see the deck of Gaomon in another round :)

Belphemon do be looking like a fun deck

Personaly i hope belphemon win the game but because Mirage Gaogamon take advantage for bouncing belphemon have hard time in this game. Especially with full moon meteor impact change the tempo to Mirage Gaogamon favor.

You forgot first machgao dv effect that mirage gap would have been a 16k blocker

I feel like this was not fair at all, and that sleep mode didnt have all the speed it needed.

Gaogagang stay winning

What’s the song at the end called?

10:00 did rusty forget the memory gain from mirage gaogas security option?

I'm sorry if I miss something, but shouldn't full moon meteor impact gives gaoga memory when checked from security?

Oof I feel bad for belphemon here. This is pretty bad matchup for him, but the vid was entertaining regardless.

Gaomon trashes after the search. On that first turn

can i ask for the name of the game?

0:46 BT11 gaogamon should've trash the remaining card

Ok, so a good Belphemon player would had won this match

0:42 - Gaomon's effect is trash the rest

Shoulda stayed in bed Belphemon

Bt11 Gaomon trashes after search instead of bot decking the rest which is so bad
