Same -- I tried to keep it brief because at the end of the day it's BWs and I feel like anybody can do what I did with this deck. It's the easiest top I've ever had in this format so far.
@@imnerdpodcast there’s not a lot of BW gameplay analysis on RUclips, so I’m glad you posted this. It’s a great resource I can send to people who are looking to study gameplay of this deck.
Not gonna lie I'd love to have more videos like this. Breaking down round for round replays of online tourneys obvs. Itmade my drive from jersey to Maryland all the more pleasant
Great work man. I never really watch yugioh content but seeing an old school player crush it in modern Edison is awesome. I had a question. How do you feel about upstart + draw traps? Do you feel it’s optimal? I’ve seen some lists only run the traps and then yours where there is both
I remember playing you with gravekeeper chaos back in 2011, we had a great duel, I'm Juan's brother, I'm gunna start playing edison again been playing goat but edison is my heart
6:58 failed accountant right there. Stick to Yugioh rather than your day job lol. In all seriousness, love seeing you play BWs. I think you're really the best person to watch play/speak about the game if I want to improve, your episode with Ludo really changed how I saw a few things in the deck. And I don't own frogs so this is the best I've got!
super minor but at 32:30 you probably should have flip the JOG, to get the value of why you are playing the card, the game is over, and you are making them think that you are probably running the list with 6 draw traps, and try to fuck with them on how they are going to side/things they will play around game 2, great content as always
Initially I thought the same thing. But as a matter of fact you can tribute CL for a Dark monster. But you cant use it as a synchro material for a dark syncho monster.
I’m testing his backrow - there are so many things that I do without even really thinking about it because they’re engrained in me. He already decided to not commit a monster because that’s what good bw players do in the mirror, but I also don’t want to set 2 and risk a heavy storm, and just setting bottomless makes it awkward if he summons under it and has Icarus attack. Lots of mind games.
@@imnerdpodcast sound reasoning, not overextending. Man.. I played so heavily back in the day and I knew how to play well.. bluffing, thinking turns ahead, playing conservatively, baiting out shit, now a mf rusty as hell lol. Thanks for these videos brother, you’re an excellent player.
Your build is 3 cards different from mine. But, im surprised you only have 1 dyna in the side and nothing else like cyber dragon or non dark monsters so you can deal with sided in consecrated light without having to use other important cards like icarus, brain, torrential or synching into a non dark synchro. Dark illusion is very good side choice in the deck. I like it alot. Also surprised you dont run 2nd armor master. I think that comes up way more than silverwind with only running 1 vayu. Other than that, i cant really argue with anything. Pretty creative with the 1 jar and 2 legacy to mask the battle traps.
@imnerdpodcast yeah, I should've worded that a little differently. I realize blackwings are pretty much all very similar builds with very little variation at this point. But what I found more interesting is we agreed on doing kind of non conventional things with our builds with very little variance. Like literally the difference is I don't run upstart but instead run 1 book of moon, 1 more vayu and mind control main decked. I run only 3 legacy and 2 icarus with sided 2 jars and I run 2nd armor master over the silverwind. Oh and I do run torrential in the main over your tech oppression choice. But I have the 2 in my side and usually side out torrential and dustshoot for them depending on the matchup.
I just see the card/format differently than most people. I think it's overrated. I don't think Blackwings has to play a non-engine card like that to deal with any of the aforementioned. I also don't like it in the mirror.
Great video. Narrating these tournament runs is always EXHAUSTING for me.

Just got into this format, and your channel is amazing in showing how the format works. Thank you for all that you do

thank you for the kind words and congrats on the top 🙂
First time playing bw in 2 years and you still cooked harder than I ever have 😩 congrats on the run and best of luck in top cut!
lmao I'm just a guy playing cards
@@imnerdpodcast I gotta learn to play my cards better like you!
@@imnerdpodcastCome on dude,you're just a LEGEND playin' cards 😅

I value turn 1 a lot in ygo, especially when you have OP cards like whirlwind so that's the logic.
@@imnerdpodcast true, makes sense seeing whirlwind can make a worlds difference and it being at 2 you’re less likely without all the draw cards
Ggs, bro.. congrats on the top.. i will avenge your top 16 result

Finally someone formats the decklist like this!!
Game 2 vs Ley Murphy is a prefect example of why you side out Judgment vs Blackwings
Lmao trueeeeeee
Great video ! Any reason you're playing 1 Jar instead of the third Yata ?
Mind games

What’d you call me!?
@@imnerdpodcast dark magician duh wtf
I’m a HUGE fan of that card.
Just getting into edison and this video is 👌🐦⬛
Thank you
Dark Illusion is literally how I did so well at that RBET with Necrofear. Been saying that card is insane for a minute now.
Congrats on the top. The build is solid 🔥
thanks twin 🖤🖤🖤

Side question, is there an argument for activating legacy or jar when being attacked directly to dig for gorz?
that's absolutely a play you could go for, even though the odds are extremely low, but they're greater than 0
super minor but at 32:30 you probably should have flip the JOG, to get the value of why you are playing the card, the game is over, and you are making them think that you are probably running the list with 6 draw traps, and try to fuck with them on how they are going to side/things they will play around game 2, great content as always
I like this line of thinking
Great job 👏🏼 hope jakexo takes it home 🥶🥶🥶🥶
Frazier with blackwings is just too nasty 🔥
Nice list!
Hey Frazier, i double checked the ruling and you cannot tribute consecrated light to normal sirocco only tribute set.
no, you're wrong. You can do exactly what I did.
Initially I thought the same thing. But as a matter of fact you can tribute CL for a Dark monster. But you cant use it as a synchro material for a dark syncho monster.
Can you elaborate a Little more on your sb ? Are 2 crossout better than mind con, soul release etc ? What about a card like skill drain
on the game against anthony what was the logic behind not setting bottomless your first turn.. am I slow or am I just missing nuances
When?
@@imnerdpodcast around the 34:35 mark, you opt to set just mst and not a bottomless. just curious on the logic here

This whole format is sacky. That's why there are so many random tops with random decks.
Ive thought heavily about doing the 3 jars and 3 spirits. Think it would be a good idea?
nahhhhhhhh
Congrats, lost my top 8 match this morning, wanted to play with you just so I could say hi

Yeah I mean all blackwings decks are like 36 of the same cards, so everyone's deck looks like some variation of this

The Dark Magician goes to the dark side!
Well, goes back lol.
Nice, any idea who or what you play against in top16?
frog monarchs
Having played this, hero frog, ammarylis, and dturbo now - when are you playing vayu haha
lol do I have to?
@@imnerdpodcast just imagine the clickbait titles you could generate… “big 3 topping, ycs winning…”
Love the mega man 8 soundtrack 😎
it's so good
My favorite childhood game
Not to be this guy, but bro what song is this 😂 insanely good background noise could listen to it on loop for so long
it's music from megaman 8
What sector of business do you work in?
Accounting
Just curious, why no torrential?
it's in my side deck
@@imnerdpodcast is it just not optimal game 1 against most decks?
Where has Stango been?
he took a break from ygo
Teach me how to draw BWW like dis plz
champion's aura
GBs so bad they lose to normal summon Vayu 29:30 😂
lol that is a little sad but in all fairness the vayu did have 3 friends hiding behind trees
it gave "come outside, aint nobody finna jump you"
I'm surprised. Why no Cyber Dragon in side?
I actually just don't like that card tbh
@@imnerdpodcast any particular reason? Good for mirror, Turbo, machina,Hero beat, orb out

u see whirl a bit too much bro
Thank you
