Congrats on the win. You must know your matchups pretty well. Also a question: If you won the coin toss would you prefer to go First or Second with your build?
i’m just not a huge fan of shifter i feel like it slows tenpai down a good bit from doing what it wants. and i was d barriered quite a bit and everyone i would just make a seals and pass back to my opponent. i often would have handtrapped them 2-3 times to simplify the game state
Tenpais actually a simple enough deck to pilot and go vs. you just have to prevent the quick play or the paidra eff. Making a really consistent deck with 2 + handttraps should let you ste up faster.
If you ever want a run a 42 build without pot run 3 fenrir and 1 riseheart then normal summon the riseheart banish top three and make dracosack then use tokens to make cherubini send paidra use bini and draco for promethian then promethian summon paidra and combo is started from there
I'm surprised you aren't running Samurai Destroyer at all. It's incredibly useful against Voiceless, Yubel, and random things like Chaos Angel because Samurai is a non-activated effect to negate the opponent's monsters effects until the end of the battle phase, so you can use Samurai to run over Skull Guardian. Thoughts on Fenrir? There doesn't seem to be a consensus on Fenrir in Tenpai yet, but I figured that while you'd have 3 less hand traps, you'd be able to end on either Fenrir + HTs or Fenrir + Seals + HTs going first. It can also help force out interactions before you commit to using Tenpai cards
@@KingsCards21 Did your locals not have that many Voiceless players? I feel like if you're not main decking droplet then you'd almost always lose Game 1 if you didn't hand trap them to death and they still managed to end on Lo + Skull Guardian + Barrier at minimum
@@MonkUnitBrawli’ve tested against voiceless a lot on dueling book and every piece of non engine i have in my deck does something against voiceless with a lot of that non engine being high impact against voiceless. i hate mixing droplets in a main deck with handtraps it is just so counter productive when you are having to use your handtraps as droplet fodder. i like to respect voiceless from the side deck i feel like my main deck is solid and my experience playing voiceless also gives me a nice edge that i like
@@BGLoscarthere was one time where i was d barriered in the mp1 just because i had the engine to make synchro 10 and have quick play in hand so he just used it there
@@BGLoscarwe were already in a simplified game state because i handtrapped him 3 times so i went into a seals and passed back. i ended up winning the game just by slowing the game down in my favor
@@Mattscardcorner206 idk about all that, it turns off way too many boss monsters. And without the no Summoning restriction you could just Summon it off of anything at the beginning of your combo. Would nerf like every single rogue strategy significantly if you could just turn off half of their endboard, imagine Snake-Eye making Ty-Phon immediately and then doing their full combo to then OTK them after. Also would just make every deck OTK way harder going 2nd because you could turn any shitty monster into a 2900 ATK beater that floodgates your opponent and non-target bounces one of their monsters
sangan summoning makes your fire dragons unaffected by your opponents activated effects and black rose just so happens to be a fire dragon. so black rose would be unaffected by your opponents activated effects
@@KingsCards21 if you summon black rose dragon, it’s your black rose dragon, and nukes the board, including itself, because Sangen Summoning protects from your opponents activated effects.
i just don’t like mixing breakers with hand traps. especially droplet because you’re either sending your hand traps or your very small engine. lightning storm is different i just never found a huge need for it this format
Did you change the deck build up yet?
i did make a few changes for a case tournament i played in last weekend. i will post an updated deck profile soon!
Congrats on the win. You must know your matchups pretty well.
Also a question:
If you won the coin toss would you prefer to go First or Second with your build?
second 100 percent of the time. only time i choose to go first is game 2&3 in the mirror match
nice video. remember belle can be used on ostinato and wanted.
Can u explain not choosing shifter over other hand traps and how did u play against d barrier,thx dude

@@KingsCards21 ah i see ur point thx
How does Sangen Kaimen play around droll?
you chain sangan kaimen to droll and search
how did you take down the yubel player?
handtraps all day. yubel is pretty weak to multiple handtraps
Very cool profile and might've changed my mind on running droplets/hfd in main. what were your matchups?
i play against 3 snake eyes, 2 mirror matches, 2 unchained yubel, 1 chimera, and 1 hero

good idea on samurai destroyer i’ll have to pick one of those up. and i just dont like fenrir in certain matchups but could definitely look into it!

Grats on 9-0. Just curious, how many times did you see D Barrier on the opposing side and how many got resolved against you?
oh goodness, i know i never saw d barrier but i was on the receiving end of d barrier 4-5 times

thoughts on fenrir?
i think it is good but not great. i think handtraps are just better going second
No trident?
Trident isn’t necessary you otk easily without it. Comes up like once every 8 games
i explained in the video, played it on friday but sold it due to fear of it being reprinted in RC2
@@KingsCards21 I was hoping it was going to be reprinted but it wasn't
@@thereconracoon3715And did u manage to otk with prosperity without the Trident?
@andresvalencia4335 You can OTK through Prosperity without it but not when also under shifter.
how u don't brick with so many handtraps?
there's not mutch else to play for consistency
18 pieces of engines is a good number to see 2 per average 5 card hand
13 starters plus prospies. 12 is the standard for the perfect hand. Every single Tenpai card is a starter.
Fadra is not a starter. Just an extender. It does nothing alone. But Info will give us mòre starters so Fadra can go to 1@@goldsyerex4529
The typhon explanation was 100% accurate, it's a lose slower card lol
such a powerful card in the game except in tenpai lol

“It’s like playing yugioh.. except playing less yugioh!” Literally sums up modern yugioh decks in one sentence
i think that is just a tenpai statement tbf. the snake eye mirror match is some of the most technical gameplay since tear mirrors.
Um no it literally doesn't. Just this deck. Cringe af little man
This looks very sub optimal ?
Can’t be scared brother , release that fear and play the 3rd belle
i just don’t know what to cut for it lol. i feel like i have to keep the deck at 40 lol
Also from GA!
Plan on going to Olympus or Greenville this weekend?

Sangen Summoning doesn’t protect black rose dragon. It protects from your opponents activated effects.
sangan summoning makes your fire dragons unaffected by your opponents activated effects and black rose just so happens to be a fire dragon. so black rose would be unaffected by your opponents activated effects

been main decking droplet and l storm and duster this list is changing my mind lol

very fair, most matches were done in 15 solid minutes
He doesn’t respect Voiceless it seems.
i think ash, belle, ogre, veiler, imperm, mourner, magnamhut, rivalry is enough respect for one deck out of the main right?
