I like to talk about what cards to take out as well. Especially when cards are part of your engine and it becomes hard to choose cards that are bad for going second, how do you decide
Depends what’s going in. Let’s say “dust tornado”, you wouldn’t really put it in going 2nd if you win game 1? Apply that to the side board and it will work good for you. Take out dustshoot if you’re going 2nd. And so fourth. Smoke screening is only as good as the match up. Crows are going in against LS, so Vayu will be crowed lol. Just an example. Crow is useful 1st or 2nd.
You start by siding out the tech cards that are bad into a matchup. For example you usually side out the trap dustshoot going second against most decks, except for things like frogs that keep a lot of cards in hand. Then after that you can find extraneous engine pieces that are fairly easy to side out. For example, Zombie decks that play 3 Pyramid turtle can very easily side out the third one.
If you mean pre-siding, it's tailoring your main deck for what you expect to be in a tourney, then putting your generic cards that you might normally main deck inside your side deck.
@@louisgrant3170 yeah thats what im saying, thats how i expect the word „pre“ to be used. Karpath always uses pre as a word for all the cards that are actually in his side deck though. Thats just wrong 😅
New to Edison. Saw Chimeratech Fortress in a deckbuild so I assume that's what the Cydra is for. But is it only for Machine deck matchups, or is the plan just to get to it off both copies of Cydra? Also why would a list main the Chimeratech but side the Cydra? Wouldn't you side both?

Agreed would really appreciate a follow up on this topic. Though I recognize it’s very nuanced

Am i missing something or does the term „pre“ make no sense at all when you're talking about cards you side in, therefore „post“-board

Thank you for the video! What do you think of trap stun playing fairies against BW as a side deck option?
Good thumbnail
What's the zombie pre 🤔

Basically, depending on the deck there's actually not enough good extra deck monsters to fill all 15 slots so you can use 1 of them for chimeratech.
