Some Explanations:
- The new cards, Quem and Sanctifire, as well as Luluwalilith in combination with Nadir Servant, are great for letting branded play on the opponents turn. They are all less about making new fancy turn 1 combos, and more about letting you do more on the opponents turn. So a lot of branded turn 1 boards will look less impressive now at first glance.
- Puppet lock and Jowgen lock are a possibility with Sanctifire now, however i dont think they are necessary. The reason is because most games where you are able to go 1st and combo are going to be wins anyway. Puppet and jowgen will win some games that you wouldnt have otherwise, but not so many that its worth putting the brick into the deck. The 40 card versions are very very tight. The weakness of branded has never been power, its the lack of room for handtraps, as well as a certain fire zombie stopping your branded fusion.
- Super poly is good when mirrors are common, a lot of players will be trying new branded for a while. Its a strong deck for a while. Droll or ash or imperm arent in the deck because they too low impact as handtraps in the case of ash and imperm, and while droll is high impact against dragons or mathmech, its not good enough at all against kash, lab, or the mirror match. Purrely was another reason to play droll, but now purrely is much less of a problem.
- No herald of abyss anymore because purrely is (as far as ive seen), not played much anymore.
- Nadir servant is another solid engine card that can play on its own. going 1st it can be superior to fusion deployment since deployment requires another monster to fuse with, and even then granguinol by itself is not an amazing play. Nadir can play on its own though, sending lulu and search for albaz or quem, then summoning cartesia from the deck in the end phase. Nadir has trouble being good going 2nd though, so you can cut this card out of the deck if you want. Playing 3 more handtraps is not a bad idea in its place.
- Sanctifire is still the best new card by far even without the puppet or jowgen lock. Summoning albaz on opponents turn is incredibly good. It offers good grind game too since it is able to be used multiple times, and cannot be targeted, so you can often use it for multiple turns. Its a good card to summon when maxx c is chained to branded fusion, since it gives only 1 draw and a lot of play on opponents turn.
- Thrust is still worth playing even though there is no purrely. The idea is to beat ash and maxx c harder when you go 1st, using duplication.
- Still not playing Beast or Regained. Although they are good against runick stun decks, and in the mirror as well as dragon matchup, regained is good. They could make the cut eventually. For now im not trying them.
- Overall i think branded is a bit stronger. Its a cleaner deck to play into maxx c with, and has even more tools to play after ash now. But the main weakness is still there. Not enough room for handtraps makes the deck pretty hard to play into a format of dragons and mirror matches and mathmech. I would put the deck as a tier 1 threat, but not the best deck in the format. Also this list isnt going to be the best way to play for sure, its my first idea. These cards are just as new for me as anyone, so ill be improving it over time, and the non engine choices will change with the format too.
Fire zombie?
ash 😆@@HeroKnightDB
Thoughts on High Spirits? Didn't like it before but really liking it now with Quem in the mix.
I appreciate you're opinion on puppet, but it is soooo simple to set it up that it seems like a wasted opportunity not to do it. Sure it sort of is a "win more" in some situations, but the advantage that it can give you if you can't set up a perfect board on turn one is insane. Either way, I doubt the puppet will be around for much longer anyways.
Totally fine to play. Theres so many things that are fine in branded. High spirits might be optimal now, ive not tested it with quem, not sure what it can replace though. Maybe nadir.@@imjlu
I have enormous amount of respect for you because your videos are authentic. You don’t just post games where you win, you also post games where you loose for us to learn. Thanks
thanks for pointing this out! First youtuber I've seen to post games where they lose too. I find those very helpful.
I can't begin to express how much respect I have for you not using the puppet bs. Branded was never supposed to be a toxic floodgate imho. You are the champion we need! Keep up the great work April!
thanks! im not the best branded player though. Other players like their lists a lot different to me usually, so they must be just fine too.
@@AprilShowerz a few seasons ago your list got me to my first master 1. You're the most enjoyable to watch in my book, best or not. Thanks for the content!
@@AprilShowerz at least for me, watching your branded replays was the difference between being stuck in plat and making it to master, so even if you aren't the best out there mad respect for your play still
THE GAMEPLAY I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR ❤
You save my day, ty April. Nice plays.
I was waiting for you to post ! I'm having so much fun this update ! Dis pater for my d link,Blackwings and resonators. Lulu for my synchro branded and especially my dogmatika. And zoodiac is just so fun now.
I'm suscribing just for the Touhou music (specially last remote it's my favourite), they are perfect alongside the gameplay, keep up the work!
Been waiting for this 🙌 tnx april
Um dos Melhores RUclips de Branded!🎉
I'm worried for Branded's future. In the past, instead of banning Gimmick Puppet, KONAMI decided to ban a card which is otherwise fair and a good interruption -- Branded Expulsion.
Let's hope they hit the puppet this time and no other Branded card.
I feel the same way. Theres a good chance puppet lock will get konami attention. But master duel more likely to semi limit or limit a starter instead of ban puppet. They would probably have to ban jowgen too which makes it scary. We might be seeing more hits :(
@@AprilShowerz Just watch them limit Aluber and Branded Opening...
@@AprilShowerzwell OCG hit 1 openning and yes the worst future is 1 opening 1 Aluber and 1 BF
I don't think they really have a choice this time. Unless they want to hit the 2 new URs that just came out over an n rarity card
If puppet gets banned, people would use Ra's Disciple.
If Ra's Disciple gets banned, it would only be a matter of time until people found another card to do it with.
The only answer was to ban the problem card, Branded Expulsion.
The real SUS decision was to make a new monster that recreates the same problem they just fixed.
Respect for not playing puppet. Scrub tactics
Thank you as always April for the replays (and not going the puppet lock route 😂)
after much testing, i like this list alot.. just all gas
being able to fusion and do disrupt in opponent turn with just Quem + Cartesia on board is just mindboggling
Ain't no strings on you and I respect it, April! You beat your opponents with Skill and Honor!!🥰
Man, you are such a good player. Love to see you play Branded. Also I hate Dragon Link - that's just such a degenerate spam deck, gosh. Well done keeping up with them!!!
Best branded player, been waiting for this, branded is hard to play optimally and i'm honestly bad with Quem, nadir servant is enigma to me, it's as if I'm playing a totally new deck, again.
Very good list!!! Sad Dis Pater and other bystials are not used anymore :(
I like the concept of summoning on both sides of the field but I don’t like players using it as a floodgate.
A new optimum combo guide would be awesome if you could do it. I saw some tcg stuff they were doing like adding opening in end phase with albion effect and summoning quem. Just lil optimisations would be nice to onoe tho ofc ur options sre alwayd based on all of your cards and opponents cards etc
Maxx C'd 3 times in one duel and still kept them on the ropes. What a boss!
Best branded player 👏👏👏
The way I dropped everything when I saw this in my notifications
What do you think about the nadir engine and dogmatika . It might be worth running in my opinion for insane pluses it gets for you.
Honey!!! April upload a new branded showcase!!.
This deck, expensive af 😱
How about anacoda? 🐍 ( Is it worth it to use ? )
How important is Nadir Servant? I've seen it in plenty of decklists, but is it really that important to run? Because there are other cards that can get me to Quem in addition to me not having enough UR dust for a playset.
its not essential. just an option for going 1st.
@@AprilShowerz Thank goodness, also Thanks for responding!
There is a 1-card combo with nadir, adding maximus, which helps doing ido-Lock during oppo's turn!
Did enemy mirrojade miss timing in the first replay due to your branded lost?
it could not activate because of lost yes. Its not the same as missing timing, but its similar
I was waiting for this list. What can I replace for TTT ?
Niceeeeee video.
use 2 Talent instead 2 Trust if you don't have them
Thank youuuuu@@yuukiraijin96
Thrust is pretty irreplaceable. Talents is probably the best replacement if you have to. The point of thrust is beat ash by setting duplication, and going 2nd it can search for your engine cards. Talents is worse at both of those roles, but can be of some help still.
@@AprilShowerz so if i can only craft Thrust or Nadir servalnt, which one should i use my CP UR for?
thrust. @@tsuhao7767
The Branded Spiels have become insane.
Seriously, the boards Branded can now break - it’s ridiculous and just in time when Purrley became inconsistent mess lol.
What do you think about branded synchro? is it better than the standard version?
its not better.
A branded list that both uses sanctifire and Quem without the BS puppet lock? Count me the fuck in, I'm a massive fan of the albaz lore so it feels much better winning with strategies centred around those cards rather than abuse the poor balancing of a completely unrelated card, good shit
So I should get nadir servant? Got it branded fusion should definitely go back to two
its not needed. u can play list with out. high spirits is a similar card.
Illusion form is next😊
0:55 i’m confused. Why didn‘t opponent‘s mirrorjade floating effect active? Thank you
because branded lost prevents them from activating anything on resolution of my fusion summons.
Wow, ur nadir play is so simple. Unlike other play that send like 4 albaz dragon into gy. Why u didn't do that? I know u didn't do it because puppet lock but it could lead to interesting play too
Then, what is the best play under maxx c now? Is it rindbrum pass or sanctifire+quem+cartesia pass?
its sanctifire after maxx c. i dont play maximus so my ndir isnt so crazy
l khow nader is the way 💝
Is it better to run 1 mercourier or is 2 more optimal
i do like 2. but 1 is probably okay too.
Good game, but I still think you should play cards like regaired and branded beast just like that branded player called KoKo did
they are good when you dont draw them. But sometimes you will and im not willing to let that happen.
Uh oh, guess we are getting nerfed to 0 branded fusions next banlist 😂😂
If you summoned Granguignol at 6:44 and sent a Puppet to the gy can you chain branded lost and Albion effect to avoid Bystial interruption?
no. they would not be able to respond to the summon of the granguinol, so they cannot chain to its effect to send. but on the resolution they can use effects. so they can chain to sanctifire. If you are able to get puppet in the grave already, you can use sanctifire on the summon of a different fusion summon effect, that way you can avoid bystial
I'm not here for neither lore or deck,as a spellcaster user,I'm here for all the spellcaster girls and woman
....
I play 45 cards... blind 2nd running 2x drnm and 3x evenly 😂
not add dis pater ?
I see some players put on it :/
You cant really make it. You still fusion lock all the time. Its no so good that you should go out of your way to play it
1020 UR 😢😢
April is one of the best Branded players out there, what strikes me is why doesn't use Gimmick Puppet? Thanks to Santifire it can be used again after Branded Expulsion ban
It’s not fun
April explains above in the statement why puppet isnt used. Regardless in my opinion puppet is toxic trash and will likely be banned next ban list.
Because she isn't a shit player who needs a toxic crutch
Wow that last deck you faced was pure cringe. Floodgates have no place in BO1
No bystials? :)
Nah in branded they are often just a useless brick, except for saronir
@stefaniagerardo7562 yeah that's true actually :)
