I recommend playing Mirrorjade + 1 Albion instead of Dragoon because Mirrorjade is a dark Wyrm and if he sends Albion to the GY you can retrieve Ecclesia from the GY in the end phase for followup and you can play 1 Branded Regained to search off of Albion. And another cool thing about running Mirrorjade you can run 1 Albaz which you can summon off of Ecclesia anyways as a way to boost your board breaking capabilities. If you have an Ecclesia in your GY you can also run 1 Golden Swordsoul that you foolish burial with Taia or discard off with Longyuan which you can then trigger off of a Chixiao negate on your opponents turn to summon Ecclesia then take away one of you opponents extra deck monsters by summoning Albaz into Mirrorjade + 1 banish interruption. This isn't even mentioning a small Bystial+Destrudo/Apple Dragon package that synergizes well with all of this. You can also summon Iris Swordsoul with Ecclesia/Golden from the GY if you run Dragoon.
So spicy! I was thinking about running one instant fusion and using Alba-lenatus as the mirror jade send, so in EP you can grab instant fusion and add back ecclesia. Then run millennium eyes restrict as my instant target. Good at break boards going second and good at breaking boards on the crack back if yours gets outed. Was trying to play as few main deck bricks, but golden swordsoul is on theme, just wish extra deck space wasn't so tight!
@@KamonYGO Thanks for the reply bro! I noticed you don’t anymore but I like how they look so I wanted to know if you use a bigger size for the outer & a smaller size for the inner or if their the same size?
@@kevinvelez-wk5bv yea I used to use the smaller for the inner and bigger for the outer! I stopped double sleeving because if you go to a regional or a YCS you cant have it with 2 sleeves lol
Did a couple of test hands with this card in my Denglong Swordsoul deck the other day and I must say, you can do some surprisingly busted stuff with it.
The issue with swordsoul now is the end board can't put up omni negates consistently unless you open the regular swordsoul 3 card combo. The sinister/chixchao/berserker endboard can be broken by so many cards! This format putting up at least 1 omni is a must. 2 and you're almost guaranteed to win.
This is why you must run the Denglong package. He's super easy to summon in swordsoul along with Chixao and Sinister. Searches an Omni negate counter trap and mills any wyrm for you (useful to complete your board). I advise NOT running anything more than just Denglong and one copy of the Counter trap negate. Don't run any other Yang Zings + Herald combo, it just makes the deck too bricky and too much extra deck space. I can consistently setup Denglong, Chixao and Sinister and with some luck, you can search Blackout/Iris for more disruption.
I've just win a local and yeah is so good for three reasons: -synchro lv 8 or baronne at the start of the combo without normal summon -the opponent must do a choice to stop or no this combo, so then you can burn into sws line -pendulum scale to use and extend your combo (taia, ecclesia, ecc...)
I liked the idea of it, but in testing against Kashtira, you autolose going second unless you main Fenrir. As long as that deck is #1 in the format, that will be a tough sell for SHS. Deck just has no inherent out to Ariseheart without going -3.
Can you make a combo video for this? Ik im a lil late for swordsoul but that deck is currently in the works. would be really helpful to learn some of its combos!
the merging of branded and swordsoul is actually fucking crazy!! MirrorJade and albion + a dragoon + golden and a branded spell. You could add bystials in side deck too bc bystials + apple is a synchro 8/10 technically and they can be used with duality too. Holy . . .
Brother i like ur videos i ve played swordsoul for a very long time so i like the content pretty much! A good interaction i could suggest playing duality is to summon Mirrorjade he is a Wyrm broo!!!
I just wonder what is the best way to play it at the time ? The pure tenyi swordsoul build / the build with deng long / or the duality build. I think the duality build looks sooo fun and I want to try it but i dont know if it is worth to buy these cards. Anyone got a tipp ?
Duality is cool and all but it certainly doesn't make the deck broken; I'd argue it's not worth it. We did alot of testing at my locals with it and felt like it never came up in our duel hands enough to warrant running it. 9/10 times felt like I needed to search my missing combo piece over Iris with Chixao. The few times I was open to searching Iris, I didn't have Duality in my hand. I tend to not like playing cards like that. Dragoon is also not all that without it's primary effect of popping cards (since it wasn't fusion summoned with normal monsters). Iris is a nice card, but you need to supplement it to make it work. 3x Effect Veiler + imperm is a must. If they manage to deal with your Chixao negate, iris swordsoul can't be summoned and both it and duality are dead cards. Turning Ashuna into yazi is a nice play, but only going second... More often than not, we found it's just better to link it off to get a non-effect on field and get your tenyi plays going than tribute to get a Yazi going first. Tributing your Chixao to get Berserker is nice, but your 1 copy of berserker is usually summoned as part of your turn 1 play (or for Chaos Angel fodder). Idk, too much variance for it to be reliable combo piece.
I see what you’re saying but I also feel duality plays a role in the build you run and also your own personal play style with the deck. I still run the apple dragon so duality can help syncro climb easier and with less steps! Plus it can help thin the deck with the 2 lvl 7 tenyi’s so you’ll more than likely get a ashuna out/in your graveyard!
While I agree the iris line adds more bricks and consistency issues, you gotta get in on the mirrorjade plays off chixiao or baxia. Gives more interruptions, and helps set up for your next turn since you can add ecclesia back, add an instant fusion, and almost guarantees an additional draw.
@@yugidoIris by herself is a decent card as it's a Swordsoul name. I agree that the mirrorjade tech is the only one worth using Duality for, but I've found the extra deck is so tight to throw in a mirrorjade + Albaz fusion. There's no real good branded spell/trap target for Swordsoul off Albion, and Alba Letanus searching Instant Fusion just means you need a third extra deck slot for instant fusion. And there are no game changer instant fusion targets for Swordsoul. Reserving three slots in your extra deck for Duality which is an unsearchable x2 in the deck, and requires standard combo on top of that... It's just overkill. I much rather keep the Denglong package (Just Denglong + Yang Zing trap), with two Baxia/Chixao for consistency. A rogue deck that can use this much much more effectively is Dogmatika. As virtually every single combo line gets you Fleurdelis in hand, which you can summon and tribute off duality on opponents turn for Dragoon. Iris requires too much setup on the other hand.
Damn I hella regret moving my swordsoul deck recently. Duality is an insane card in the deck…. It works with all of the wyrm extra deck monsters. Tribute baxia or chixiao for berserker or you can turn qixing into chengying
Why not swap out 1 Ringo for 1 Magnamhut? Feels bad to draw both Ringos, but no complaints on a bystial and a Ringo. Magnamhut searches Ringo and offers another 6* for synchros. Plus the banishing effect
It’s not always better 😂💀 plus you can use green to make baxia with the token to get 2 spins lol I feel like blue, red and green have their strengths and weaknesses
I love Swordsoul "Blind Going 2nd" and "Duality" also enables us to summon Baxia under Skill Drain with the Tenyi engine, then chain Duality to summon Berserker or Mirrorjade and get rid of backrow/floodgates...
@@Easoccer10Baxia starts chain, then you use duality and skill drain only negates cards on the field so Baxia can resolve it's effect after it leaves the field
I JUST noticed its 42 cards and not 40 so If you want to take out foolish and called by to make it 40 you can do that! 🙏

Kurikara: “and delicious”

Ah ok makes sense. It looks so clean tho lol. But keep doing your thing man I’m looking forward to the new Swordsoul deck profile!

It's a cool build, have you considered playing a SHS engine in Swordsoul? It increases the ceiling of the deck enormously.
A few people want me to play it! I’ll look into it
I've just win a local and yeah is so good for three reasons:
-synchro lv 8 or baronne at the start of the combo without normal summon

This is a good deck profile. I use assault synchron rather than apple dragon. I was contemplating the use of synchro zone, but now you convinced me.
Can you make a combo video for this? Ik im a lil late for swordsoul but that deck is currently in the works. would be really helpful to learn some of its combos!
sure thing!
@@KamonYGOthank you man i would appreciate It sooo much
Where do you get the card tokens?
Etsy
Oh lord the deck is evolving lol. Great profile!!
As cool as duality is I’ve been using super polymerization it’s sooo slept on and broken this format
Do you think it's worth playing mirrorjade? Or are the changes too big and clunky?
I feel like you'd have to make some big changes to your main deck but its doable
I feel the need to scream BANKAI when summoning the synchro monsters.
I gotta do that now lmfaoo
@@KamonYGOdark dragoon in my opinion is Zangetsu
Is it possible to go duality with chixiao into mirrorjade?
Yes! :D
Nice build dude I think it’s pretty dope
I recently got 2nd in a double box tournament using a build similar to this.
Love the profile man!
Congrats on 2nd!! 🙏

Auspice is better then circle. It's a name you can use for all the other swordsouls.
