Aside from the overly passive play of the Chain Burn deck, can we just talk how the Tengu Plant deck managed to find the 1-of BLS in all 4 games, 3 of them in the initial hand? That's mad luck.
Most people are just salty playing against degenerate strategies, when in fact this is a valid strategy. Most people don’t side deck the counters (mainly because the counter cards are very niche), so they blame the deck for being generate. It has actually been a very interesting rogue strat throughout the many years of yugioh. Even more now with decks that make multiple negations or floodgate you to death. As long as it’s not a burn FTK strat, I’m for it.
@@ReeVoque the problem with a lot of burn and stall strategies (stuff like statue-stun or chain burn) is how passive they are. While most strategies want to let your opponent as little as possible, they don’t interact with the opponent. That is what makes them so frustrating. Chain burn tries to have as little direct interaction as possible. They have few if any cards on the field and the cards that they do play, just deal damage and disappear. Which makes people angry, because you are trying to win without engaging with the opponent or as some would say “interacting with them”. Sure it’s a valid strategy, but it feels sneaky and disrespectful. Like trying to win in a fight, by sneaking behind your sleeping opponent at night and then slitting their throat. Sure it’s effective and you are left standing, but you didn’t really fight. Does that make sense?
@@frankwest5388 I don’t think it’s equivalent to sneakily killing some one. That’s what an FTK is for. It’s more so tying them up so they can’t touch you, dumping oil on them and watch them burn to death. Completely valid way to execute someone.
@@ReeVoque nah an FTK would be the equivalent of agreeing to duel but then it turns out one of you brought a gun to what the other assumed was a sword fight.
The thought process of setting 5 or not in chain burn is fascinating. Not wanting to get hit by Heavy unless the opponent already has a big enough board, so you can chain all your backrow in response to burn them. But holding those cards puts you 1 turn behind when you draw Balance or Demise.
Heavy Storm is a problem, but the bigger issue in this match-up is Black Rose Dragon since it's more accessible than Heavy Storm. If Chain Burn activates Ojama Trio, then all Tengu Plant has to do is normal summon a level 1 tuner and then Black Rose will hit the board, clearing out all of Chain Burn's backrow.
@@mildlyupsetgerbil he had to set the cards and activate them in sp, so his balance would be live, he was probabily holding those to "MAximun damage" but even setting just roar after side... he was giving the duel at that point , single back row destruction was more dangerous than heavy, and rose can be more telegraphed than heavy.
Love this series and the vids. Moving the camera so the card text is visible is great, but you can shrink the cam a little. Maybe put it at the very bottom of the left hand corner or in the middle of the right side so it doesn't cover any of the field/hand.
Wow this chain burn player was HORRIBLE. Literally seemed like a bot was playing it. You should have re done this match this was honestly embarrassing to watch. No point in doing cross ban list if the deck loses to its own player rather than tengu plants
Well, it doesn't usually play against blowout cards like heavy and Black Rose which force you to use your cards pre-emptively. You gotta love it when noobs try to argue.
@@sergiomouso2977 Setting 5 early allows the plant player to set up black rose and blow out the chain burn player before they're able to get value from the cards But even then they probably shouldn't have been cimo levels of passive
@@tsvetomirsheev3882 Show us how to play it properly. Not talking about it, actually have a duel with it and record it. And I mean a live duel. Not the one duel out of 50 you've won.
@@tsvetomirsheev3882 I said no talking. Show us in your duel how it is done. Up to this point you have been nothing but talk. No words, let your actions speak for themselves. What are you afraid of? Emberrassing yourself? Afraid that you can't deliver after all this big talk?
You sacked the hell out of him no joke the poor guys played around heavy storm in all four games, guess what? you did not even draw it you had BLS in 3 games I blv? which was a one of and on top of it hitting the only card of 5 that you must not hit, the threathening roar with that blind MST and I am just speechless xD this is the first time I feel sorry for a burn player.
A little late on this one, but I was pleasantly surprised yet again. Chain Burn just was not able to reach it's win condition fast enough, and that was its downfall. Going to give the next one to True King Dinos 3-2, and the primary reason is Misc. Although the Drolls in the side deck for Sky Strikers might be able to give Sky Strikers a little bit of an edge after game 1.
It is not searchable, and for 2022, an "engine" monster that cannot be searched is just to slow. Most decks nowadays rely on consistency, meaning getting the cards to make plays turn 1, fairily easily. Though Tengu would be great for link climbing, there is no guaranteed way to get it turn 1, therefore not worth the inclution in most decís by today standard.
@@Azkadaz Yeah, wasn't sure if the monster was warrior or winged. Still, Tenki is at 2, and it does require your normal. Most archetypes have at least a couple ways to search stuff and have special summoning effects, Tengu is a product of a time when the game was about a combination of good cards on their own, and not so much of archetypes and engines. I love the card, but is to slow for modern game.
If it's piloted by the same moron who thought going first against Swordsoul with Striker was a good idea, they're gonna get blown out again. Striker vs. Dino basically boils down to who goes second the most.
I miss the time with Tengu Plants, it was the coolest combo deck back then and there were a lot of interactions with the opponent. You'll never get that good time again. There were so many different cards being played back then, look at the decks of today.
