Notes & Combos
Didn't end up deranking at all during this master climb.. but I also went 34-17 for my flips...
Ended up losing only 7 games going first against the following:
- VV - 1
- Tear Pile - 1
- Tear Kash - 2
- Tear Horus - 1
- Kash - 1
- Crystal Beast - 1 (honestly had no clue what they were doing and it seemed like they opened pretty cracked)
Lost against Kash since they opened Gamma and I couldn't find a name after my Mantis was negated/destroyed.
Lost against the Tear decks since they always seemed to open cracked and I'm not normally building a board that is best into them. Things like setting Floodgate instead of Gravedigger's. They usually opened Fenrir + Scheiren + Super Poly and other things to have more interaction points than I had.
Lost against VV after opening 2 Maxx C and no Traptrix names after a few turns, so I got overwhelmed advantage wise.
Only ran into 2 Raika decks:
- Rikka/Raika/Plant link that went first and ended with Cactus Bouncer + Aromalilith Magnolia + a few other cards after being hit with Ash + Imperm (Ash on Jasmine and I forgot what I used Imperm on) and I couldn't get over Cactus Bouncer
- Ogdoadic/Raika that went second and scooped on Myrm's normal summon.
Never ran into Ancient Gear.
I did run into some Lightsworn/Tear decks, however, I was able to stop what they were doing pretty easily (3 of the 4 also went second against me)
Regarding the ED:
- The Zoo cards didn't come up at all this time around (probably partly due to my insane coin flips)
- ZEUS also did not come up
- I don't recall summoning Aussa or her making a large impact.
- TY-PHON was played, however, it never was strong enough to help win anything.
Regarding the MD:
- It felt pretty good most of the time.. just rough when you can't open/stick a name to get Sera going / going against Tear with what I was opening/ending on.
- I usually felt pretty good though if I opened Unending + Sera + Hole + a few interactions though, but that's probably since Unending can just cook some decks depending on how they open/things go.
