One fun thing about Light and Darkness Dragonlord is that once it uses all negates and isnt removed from the field it really messes up plays like Lady Lab trying to chain directly to a trap card being activated.
Omg ur the person that made the 4 hour and 20 hour branded guides😭💀 I don't play branded but this is super useful for if i ever fight light and darkness dragon
Ive seen some branded lists playing dragonlord with book of eclipse as a breaker. Lets his stats get reset as well as the book effect for the interruption.
This is my reason for runnin back to Eclipse That and Imperm and Veiler are way more popular now with Fuwalos out More handtraps to draw into more handtraps
Another banger as always We will keep pushing the branded agenda till the end also I can't wait for the next branded support since the story didn't actually end
Thanks for clarifying the translation issue. I had to do a lot of research to find out why I was getting less pops. I’ve lost games thinking I was gonna secure the game because of the second pop and it was only one. I was so confused and pissed. Just one other RUclips video mentioned it was my dragons as well during a card review. I’ve found that banishment is obviously the best way to get to Ladd but if you open really well and somehow get an additional shrouded in grave it’s better to search in red and activate it as last action your turn to summon Ladd using shrouded and lubellion. Because it’s let’s interact able. If they had a bystial they would have already used it. And they can’t called by on your turn. You lose some follow up but getting Ladd on board usually wins you most games anyways. You typically need a very specific sequence of cards to break it who can be chained Also the star force was way better than I thought as an upgrade over my dragon contact fuse fusion. It’s more versatile as either a albaz contact fuse or just a straight up weaker chimera who’s easier to make. At worst it forces interactions. At best it pops plus helps get into ladd
One of the more interesting niche uses of LADD that you briefly touched on but didn’t is its interactions with Rindbrumm. A LADD that has used all its negations allows Rindbrumm to activate at *any* time. Rindbrumm becomes compulse on legs even if your opponent doesn’t activate an ED effect. Unfortunately the wording on LADD makes the ATK/DEF drop cost and not part of the effect, otherwise you could do some absolutely silly things with the two. I have a difference of opinion on KSD, but your argument for it was interesting. I may try it out to see how it feels.
I absolutely love this card! Who cares if it’s mandatory, it forces your opponent to waste 3 cards and that means they lose resource, basically giving you a card advantage. A random extra thing when it has 400 ATK, is it chain blocks everything. Not often it comes up but it’s mandatory chain link 2 so they can’t negate your cards by responding. Hust carried on watching and realised I’m literally parroting what April said lol.
Yes, i needed more expert opinions to cross-reference with my own. These are helpful when i play against Branded. Don't need them bamboozling me with extraterrestrial behaviours.
thank you for the explaining, it's make me clear about: 1. LADD + Quem + Lost = LADD will lose atk and def for nothing (correct me if im wrong) 2. Khaos about missprinted eff
LADDL is a blessing toward this deck. It's so easy to get out, which is a huge plus. And I'm definitely putting Starsource in my deck immediately as i have been running AL for the tenpai match ups.
I have 3 questions one related to the monsters and one not related to them 1. What so you think about the other 2 dragons that did got released with them like Light End and Dark end dragon like I could see a usage in them. For example we could banish Albion to special Dark End and use its fusion effect to fuse into lubellion than with lubellion fuse it and dark end into LADD just the problem that it locks into dragons so you would need to do it at the end of the turn 🤔 2. I saw a package of toy box and magicians souls combo being played together and I thought it could be used in branded as well? Yeah it might not be optimal but I can see the usage in it to get out stuff like dragoon and magia in it and the toy engine can special Cartesia from the deck as well 3. What do you think about the Azamina cards in the future of master duel do you believe the 2 boss monster could work? Like the we only would need 2 spaces in the extra deck and maybe 1-2 main deck slots I mean saint protects just from battle damage and is also a floodgate but requires a synchro monster substitution. But it's also a removal that the opponent can't respond to since it's thanks to the level 12 Azamina we can use it and an opponents monster to fuse similar to a Kaiju and it prevents 0 atk monsters to use effects so it shuts down allot of hand traps. Like no ash, no droll, no veiler, no belle, no ogre I can see that as a very good option against hand traps
the answer to all of those is the same. branded has enough power going 1st. all of those cards just add more, but what u really want is going 2nd tools. azamina having a omni for ash/impulse is interesting tho
@@AprilShowerz oh and I forgot to mention that the first azamina is a super poly target you just need a synchro and a fusion monster both need to be level 6 or higher So technically up to 2 removel with the first one if you use super poly and the second one is also a removel thanks to contact fusion with opponents monster and also a skill drain for 0 atk monsters but not just on the field
We're grabbing Mercourier to negate a Chain-3 monster effect guys. I've been preaching the Chain Block capabilities of LaDD for God knows how long too, ty April 👏👏👏 Btw have you tested Magnum the Reliever ? It's a bit slower but it's a quick effect that do be a pop + draw 1 for when you're out of dragons. I'm aware extra deck space is non-existent though.
I never got to resolve santifire's second effect,i don't use it now, but still can you please tell what are to conditions required to summon sanct from gy?
Hello April! I am very new here and I have some question regarding TCG, if you do not mind answering that! Do you ever play TCG as well and if so, do have you an TCG orientated list regarding branded despia? Since I am not that familiar to MD (and I am really sorry if you explained it already) how actually useful is Branded Sword in MD and in TCG as well? I have never ever encoutered it on games and I saw it like for the very first time on your channel. I thought, thst recovering a banished albaz card would not be that necessary + is an brick
April I just changed my phone and when I opened the app all my data was lost.I had all my branded cards crafted.What can I do to restore my data?Please help me🙏🏻Idk what to do
Then you log into the app with your Konami ID. I used my Google account to sign in so swapping my phone while retaining the email makes it instantly log in correctly.
Do you think it's better to take out Sanctifire for Starsource, or to remove Chimera? I'm having a hard time deciding since Chimera is very similar to Starsource, so it feels natural to remove it and use Starsource as a replacement, though Chimera can be very powerful while Sanctifire doesn't always get value. please help, i'd really appreciate it 😭
khaos and chimera do a similar thing, however its not uncomm to have access to both in one turn. i dont see much use for sanctifre without a floodgate right now. sanctifire pass isnt great, but chimera comes up a good amount. id play no sanc right now, but its possible to play sanc over chimera. khaos is super mandatory tho

Brightest blazing trap will reset dragonlord attack and stop chaining right
@@semisolaire5866blazing target the Ladd or blazing target another card.
@@semisolaire5866 It will not stop chaining. Dragonlord always activates, even when the ATK/DEF are already too low to resolve the effect.
Another banger as always

There are a few N rarity cards in your UR deck my friend.

Cutest branded player ❤
I wish we could have more slot in extras. This deck is so tight, i really want to put everything in it😢
Khaos starsource is so good. I prefer it over chimera or furious. Usually easier to make, pops 2 typically and is another light dragon to make LaddL

just super poly'd two of my opponent's bystials and got no pops, came here i was so confused. thanks for explaining 14:00

@@AprilShowerz Bugged 🙃
cant wait to see you cook with Azamina when they come out in the future..😁
Azamina is going to change Branded in MD forever and I'm so ready
thank you for the explaining, it's make me clear about:
1. LADD + Quem + Lost = LADD will lose atk and def for nothing (correct me if im wrong)
2. Khaos about missprinted eff
yeh
It's weird, according to the official (?) database the mistranslation on Khaos Starsource Dragon is also there in the OCG English version.
LADDL is a blessing toward this deck. It's so easy to get out, which is a huge plus. And I'm definitely putting Starsource in my deck immediately as i have been running AL for the tenpai match ups.
Would you recommend the super poly package in branded or should i just replace it with generic board breakers or something like book of eclipse?
Wait until I summon cyber valley. That’ll show em.

Since I dont play floodgate monsters because they lower your board ceiling for a sacky hit, is Sanctifire even necessary for my builds?
it isnt. as u can see the list in this video was not even playing it
Thats good to know
Also
SUPER CUTE with the lil Abyss portal hairclip and avatar in general
@@LikeTheBirb thankyou
Is there a reason I can't summon LADD with Albion or lubellion's effect?
They can only fuse into level 8s, ladd is level 10 👍
albion and lubellion summon lvl 8 or lower monsters from the ed
@@WhyDoesRUclipsHaveHandlesJFC Thanks
This video is amazing wondering do u plan on doing this type of thing with new archetypes or are we only doing in depths for branded
yeh i can do it for anything that i know about
oh lord ive been cheating at locals for weeks, we all assumed ladd negated AND destroyed >_
I never got to resolve santifire's second effect,i don't use it now, but still can you please tell what are to conditions required to summon sanct from gy?

sword is for adding mercourier back to hand, not usually albaz. i dont play tcg
What are your thoughts on both dragostapellia and sanctifire now
what are your thoughts on a mini max metalmorph engine for branded (tcg)?
Just fusion dragonlord away. Why not play branded blazing?
April I just changed my phone and when I opened the app all my data was lost.I had all my branded cards crafted.What can I do to restore my data?Please help me🙏🏻Idk what to do
Did you link your account to something? Like KonamiID? If not maybe you can try to contact the support and talk with them

where can i find the combo spreadsheet?

LADD chain blocking BF can’t be right. Priority goes to opponent before LADD chains.
Depends on what the opponent has that could be chained. LADD is a mandatory effect, so it goes on chain before any optional effects (including your opponents).
it is right
