in the 2nd combo its good to note that going for fossil dig can be good to play around ash, but plays directly into droll. so it depends on the meta and if you're in a droll heavy meta like we are now. and i would say summoning rex while holding the rookie is good, as it helps you play around imperm/veiler as you can tribute the rex for cost with rookie so their hand trap loses target. cuz you still get beat, search mayhem and you can link beat and beaver into donner, into your beat and rex, search raf etc
I see what you're getting at. I know those combos but I wanted to show a backwards way of doing it and to use ash as the example that you don't necessarily need the regular monsters to get what you want.
Hi man, love the type of content! I'm really interested in the fur hire engine alongside with the sprights/runicks. My personal thought is that is just more consistent with the runicks because you draw so many cards and you can actually dig in your deck for the fur hires even with a only runick first hand. Anyway, during these test hands I noticed some plays that are either illegal or sub-optimal (in my opinion). The first one occurred during the first test hand, right at the end when you used rex to summon donpa from gy. Unfortunately rex can only activate from gy to add back/summon when you already control a fur hire monster on the field. So with the I:P you could've summoned something different than the donner, like unicorn, to still remove something from your opponent side of the field but with a cost. During the second test hand you tried to play around nibiru as much as possible, trying to get the rafaele on the field as quickly as possible. Instead of using beat's effect to summon rex from hand you could've just normal summoned and search the rafaele by its effect. Then you could've summoned rafaele as summon nº5 with the second rex in the hand to negate a possible nibiru. This way you still had rafaele's effect to dig for 2 (you had alongside with him rex and beat) and the mayhem fur hire in hand. Now you would've been able to summon folgo anyway (being careful to not use the beaver) to get the donpa on the field. Also I just noticed that at the end of the second test hand you said that rafaele is an omni negate, but I guess you meant to say monster negate. One final thought about the last test hand: having red + frog on the field and the nimble beaver as your normal summon couldn't you just normal summon beaver and kept playing? In this scenario you could've been able to play into the nibiru and negate it. Although if he also had imperm he would've chained to negate the red which would've then neutralized the effort anyway. I guess that nib + imperm does screw the combo at any point. That is why i like more the idea of pairing the fur hire engine with the runicks. Because if you get screwed by a nibiru you still can end on a fountain. Also if you haven't used the effect of donner before getting hit by nibiru you can summon a hugin/geri and try to recover. I suggest you trying the fur hire and runicks without the sprights. I know it might sound wierd but I actually liked the idea! You have much more space for non engine cards (ash, nib, veiler, ecc.), plus you have to be able to find the most optimal line to make it work. This way when you come back to the spright version you'll have a better vision of the lines and much more gas to build the strongest end board you can. Hope you had great holidays and happy new year!
I used to play the runick stuff and I didn't like it. I didn't have the chance to otk when it became available. And I either saw all runicks or just 1 and still would have to skip battle phases. Part of this current build is just swinging over something and insta killing your opponent or coming really close
I love it for the nostalgia. But like I said for me it has come up. You don't necessarily have to play it. S:p, Zeus and dark Zeus are good options for replacements

do you have any list for this combo?
Previous video on my channel
I’m kinda pissed because toad is actually dead in this list, please explain how I’m getting it on board
It's not dead it's come up for me. Draw 2 swap plus another water it makes toad for free. And then spright plays
i guess 2 and a nimble works but is it really worth the ed slot? if you have frog and angler why not just do the spright play?@@averageplayerygo2532
