      That has always been my argument. I won't mind if later he says it's bad for x/y/z/ reasons since he at least gave it a chance.
      IMO it's a really good deck but just like Branded suffers from high-impact counters that also work well against the current top tier, while it is very punishing for greedy HERO players.
      I wish we could have a collab with JadenBR teaching Josh the ropes

      @@RoBert-gj9pl This is an issue of going first being much better than going second (HERO is a going second OTK deck) while the deck doesn't have any way to protect itself, even from the older removal in the game like a Raigeki. Although with current support, giving it an omni would make it extremely toxic since it has a lot of non OPT effects.
      @jkromes20 this isn't true with Infernal Rage. I've shuffled back everything except Devicer for Wake, fully resetting main/extra and the deck can grind if needed, but you almost never reach a grinding point because the deck can OTK so easily (provided you play and aren't stopped very early in your plays)

And emperor taxes snake eye to either force flamberge early to push back, or they waste poplar search on subversion. yeah it doesnt insta win tbh but ive been going back and forth against a lot of top decks, im just a local player but i think there is potential.

    Melodious is one of those weird decks that it feels like everyone agrees that the deck is genuinely quite strong, and while it is getting some real results, it doesnt have quite as much representation as i expected it would.
    Not sure if i should blame 1st Movement being very expensive and a necessary piece in the pure build, or D Barrier being popular, or Tenpai being much cheaper and also a lot more brainless
    I also feel similarly about Memento, although obviously that deck is nowhere near the same level, but I think it's a decent deck in its current form

    • @four-en-tee
      @four-en-tee 2 месяца назад +6

      Its a Rikka or Mannadium situation i figure. Strong deck, but the art possibly turns people off. That and its a pendulum deck, so...
      It looks fun though, but i've been in the lab messing around with Shining Sarc. I have such a bad habit about trying to break mediocre archetypes, lol. RN the best synergy i've found is with a PUNK package since Gandora + a level 3 tuner climbs into level 11 synchros like PEP or Amazing Dragon, and one of the PUNK tuners has a quick effect synchro that you can do on the opponent's turn for anyone who can't afford SP.

      @@four-en-tee Nobody give a fuck about the art for competitive purpose. If tommorow there announce the most broken Traptrix support and the deck became top tier, every good player will play it despit them making the same joke about the art every time.
      No, if a deck have low representation despit being considered strong by top player, it's for other specific reason. Like, for Rikka, it's a deck that ended up shining during europeen tournament because of player that was very good at pilot it and total lack of preparation about this deck by other player, but was less oppresive when the meta is prepared for.

      ​@@Animexdraco For a clear Tier 0 super broken deck, no competitive player will ever care about what they look like. But for the 6th-7th best deck? What it looks like can wildly change personal perception.
      Don't forget attractive people have an edge when being evaluated on professional performance, a much more serious and important thing than deck selection... If the edge is small enough you're picking the preetier one.
      If they made broken cards for Traptrix tommorow and they became better than Branded but worse than Snake-Eyes, it would be strong, but barely ever played.

    Yubel is a pretty good deck even now imo, at least definitely not worse than HERO or Vanquish Soul. It can easily play around hts (at least if you draw some engine) and you can vary the board between a spoly on the opponent's turn or a big negate board, so you can also play around spoly and board breakers. After Phantom of Yubel it will be definitely be at least t1.5, after Fiendsmith maybe even the best deck.

    I will stand and die on the hill that Vaalmonica is at least rogue.
    Although my faith has wavered after I remembered that nib says summon 5 monsters and not summon 5 times.
    To clarify for anyone who doesn't know, the Vaalmonica combo only summons 4 times, but it does summon 5 monsters, so it can still be nib'd and I hate it.
    The only (relatively good) idea I have is to play 3 terrortop, 1 taketomborg, and a bamboozling gossip shadow, but feel free to guess why that doesn't stop nib under bagooska.
    The other idea I have is complete Copium, but you could hypothetically use the Xyz Armor trap to xyz summon bagooska on your opponent's turn. The least copium part is that it forces tenpai to commit to a monster before they have the chance to use imperm.
    Also note that this wouldn't be the xyz armor trap with the rank 3 that searches for it, this would be 3 of the trap plus 3 angel with tears of blue to potentially set it from, the deck.

      I havent played the deck myself but I‘ve been told it struggles against Veiler/Imperm on Raiders Knight and those cards are in pretty much every deck at the moment so not the greatest position probably

    Tenpai is a deck that highlights the competitive/casual divide. Competitive players (especially those who make a living off being such) tend to prefer low diversity, high skill. Casual and casually competitive prefer high diversity, low skill. Low skill refering to the combo lines being pretty straight forward.
    I prefer the latter mainly because I don't have a very fast processing speed. However, I can see why players may prefer the former. Not only the decks, but the people you're likely to face become a lot more predictable. On top of that, there's a greater challenge in a "chess" format. Victories feel earned to those hyper competitive types.
    Like with any format, it's about what Konami wants. What generates the most hype and makes them the most money? Tier 0 formats kill locals, but some of the largest regionals and YCSs occurred in a low diversity format. Diversity helps locals, but does it take away from regionals? Just from a business and psychological standpoint, I'd love to know how Konami decides its formats.

      You can also have diverse but skill intensive formats. It kind of depends on how exactly you define diverse, though.

    • @babrad
      @babrad 2 месяца назад +6

      It's an insult to AgOv format (my favorite competitive format of all time) to think it's low skill. Your argument is slightly flawed, because the divide isn't about low/high skill but variance instead.
      By eliminating variance, you can fully invest in playtesting while having a dedicated group collectively figure out the idea deck build. So you'll get an overwhelming advantage due to experiencing almost every interaction/scenario in a narrow/tier 0 format to the point you can accurately predict the opponent's hand and plays, while you have a "silver bullet" for almost every matchup waiting in your side.
      Little Jimmy with Blackwings has no chance to top in a format like that, unlike a more open format.
      So in the end it has nothing to do about skill since every format is skillful (except maybe tier 0 dice rolls like "Year of Firewall"), but more about gatekeeping non-pros from getting good results consistently.

    Centurion just makes me sad. It's such a fun deck to pilot and has a really strong ressource game if you don't commit your entire line to Calamity. But they're way too expensive for what they can accomplish.
    Still plan on getting them sometime soon though.

      I know you didn't ask me, but it's really good card, but the problem is that it didn't solve salam problems, but directly or indirectly, it made the deck more powerful, but I don't recommend playing it, especially when VV is in the meta, because Salam is blind to it.

      I think it's a fair rogue. Losing both Baronne and Borreload means you can't play anymore around board breakers or nibiru that easily... that said, the deck is kinda the same as it was before.

    I think Memento can become Tier 2 because of the new support. The consistency for this deck is above average. Foolish burial goods for example is a very strong starter for this deck because of Mementotlan Fusion grave effect. This deck does not need Crossout Designator because you can dodge hand traps and play through Droll & Lock Bird.
