@@avengedchaos7pleaaase. I want pure Versions or at least hard focus on them. I dont want to mix it, cause its strong with despia/branded still you nearly only play around this engine if possible
Genuine question man. Are we just kinda fucked? Like do we just have to put down darklords until Arise-Heart gets limited? i don't think Master duel is gonna ban him. EDIT: i spent so much mats crafting the cards for darklord despia. really wish i would have known this new secret pack was gonna be coming..... another edit: i watched DKayed video about KAsh and countering it what do you think about the upstart goblin tech he did with kurikara. I feel like darklord should be able to play upstart.
Even though Arise-Heart counters and ruins our gy strategy, we are still not completely fucked per se as we just need to negate him or get him off the board asap or commit to just board wipe OTK them while trying to manage our resources. The Upstart Goblin tech is an option, but not necessary as almost any other card you play will trigger their effects to be able to use Kurikara
I did consider that option and probably should have done it either way, but the only reason I didn't do it was because I wanted to blow up their back row first in case they had some sort of follow-up
This was incredibly entertaining! Absolutely love Branded Darklord!! I also teched in cards to smash Purrely and Kash and our favorite turn 1 turbo out D-barrier foe, Labrynth. Thrust and Talents are just amazing! Sub earned, hope to see more from you! 😁
Thank You! I very much appreciate it! There is much more to come, and I can't wait for the next wave of Branded Despia support to arrive in Master Duel to pair up with Darklord 😎
Ehi there! Love to see more darklord testing! I tried more the non-branded despia-darklord version to take advantage of darklord, despia and diviner of the herald normal summons with 2-3 copies of "light in darkness" in the deck. It turned out veery fun and I think it's my fav version of darklords so far. I ended up removing ret-time (I also never see you using her, so you may think of removing it too) I'm currently trying out reasoning x3 again for ash bait and fusion fodder. And I love TTT although I'm still testing that so it may be overhype. I teched eradicator virus with that. How do you find yourself with daruma and necrofusion? I'm not sure I'd like them. Oh, last but very important, i really want to use darklord morning light, but I brick a little bit too much on first turns. Any suggestions for that? Thanks a lot!
I am currently running Ret-time just for the book of moon effect and free special summon and has come in handy occasionally in other matches but may consider swapping it out. Reasoning is very good and want to run it but am hesitant on it for now because of Arise-Heart being almost everywhere now and banishing everything sent to gy. I'm liking both of the TTT for their search and draw power alone and sometimes to use as a change of heart. Eradicator is a good option and can see it coming up in certain situations. I am running Daruma as a searchable book of moon with TTT and it gets rid of unaffected monsters. Necro Fusion is like a last resort option if all my resources are in gy and can use Morningstar in gy as fusion material to trigger The First Darklord nuke effect. Some options that can help with bricking to try out are allure of darkness and into the void (they are a bit risky though) and possibly the card Trade-in if you are running a lot of level 8's I am no expert but I hope that helps answer some questions a bit😅
It is the first time I tried throwing in a second copy just in case i needed it, but yes it is mostly for fodder and like you mentioned, it rarely did come up in my case, so I will probably switch it out for Chimera again
Usually you want to go second and it kind of plays mind games with your opponent when you make them go first. Sometimes it doesn't always go well and have to figure out how to break their board but if you go first the main goal is you want to try to Kristya lock them with this decklist
It's funny how TT thrust has a bit of synergy with indulged darklord's effect of giving your opponent a monster and then searching a card if they used maxx c
The Darklord Despia with Purrely can be good since it has the benefit to efficiently turbo out Zeus and wipe their field and can have good recovery but I feel the Branded version still is just overall stronger
The only thing good about the purrely one is that the xyz give you some disruption, but i feel the branded stuff gives you extra power and push, since at worst you can just like branded fusion for lubelion using albaz and superbia and start reseting up the combo from there, branded fusion helping you dump any darklord you want can be quite good
