and they undid the damage from the garunix
this game is taking forever
plot twist
game 2 it became mikanko
oh god it's 60 card amazoness mikanko
well game 2 was incredibly dissapointing
ha-re with equip pass. i got duster in my open
please check out the GoFundMe for a good friend of mine. even if you can't donate, a simple share or view goes a long way.
Go to 1:20
So I'm not crazy
i mean you’re entitled to do you
i’m still against the idea
but i am considering cutting tenki entirely
this video reminds me that nerval at 1 is fine which means ideally you don't need almiraj since you're less likely to draw it, though almiraj still enables kitt
I wouldn't cut almiraj because you still need it for some FK combos
true
watching the video is making me realize how much space i give up to put spoils engine in
He also doesn't play circle nor burn rigth?
There is one burn in there
oh nice
the more i look at it in this build, the more circle is a winmore card
it's very nice in some situations, but unless you hard draw it, you're already doing well if you search it
lol, of course the list is 41
Yeap not needed, I cut it
i mean of course you don't need yeap 
Cutting 2nd nervall, I tried it and somehow I still drew the 1 of and not being able to go thru Tri plays from deck that's was enough for me to reconsider but let me know how it goes
almiraj fixes that slightly
I opened my 1 nervall now I'm normal summoning it for Almiraj...this duel has gone terribly so far 😂
gotta put that light-heart back in too i guess
to be fair, almiraj is for fixing hands with kitt
even in tri it never did anything for nerval
Just played a mikanko who was using this
Got to use revolt to special summon 2 monsters for free that stayed on board, then popped one with Kirin lol
Wait...wouldn't revolt not be activatable without a valid set or targets?
To activate a card you must be able to resolve the entire effect
But I guess as long as one legal combo exists, you don't have to pick it...it just has to exist
i love circle too much to cut it
it just lets you loop back into a kitt or fraktall
necessary no
that's what leads to hard cuts when optimizing
how about 2nd nerval?
i am in favor bc it allows you to grind harder with your tribrigade engine
We discussed above, I think its necessary
i'm like 50/50 on it
the only real odd thing in the video is rangbali
like i get that he's useful
but he doesn't particularly synergize
i've been debating on and off all day if i keep spoils package in the build
that's 5 slots i could fill with non-engine and a bit more engine
I would 100% cut ranbali before the second nerval
im siding rangbali
that's justifiable
the one thing i don't like in that guy's list is the true lack of backrow hate
like just duster
wut
actually 1 rangbali never comes up
im finding myself struggling with 3 main things
centurion, branded bystial, and shifter
Hello does anyone have issues with the tri ratios?
I'm here to shine wisdom cause I'm bored
Here are the basics, wanted engine not needed, only 1 garunix is needed, heatsoul engine is a must, 1 nerval is horrible even post side, zealantis is a real thing and I guess that's it
all of this sounds completely opposite of everything we've experienced playing it the past week and a half 😛
except the wanted not needed part
also dd crow is being played a lot more because of this deck (fire king in general, not this variant) instead of bystials like before, so having a backup garunix is useful
i legitimately have no idea why you'd play zealantis in this version other than purely because it makes a dead apo useful for more atk
but if you hit the point where you can zealantis you're probably already winning without it
i legitimately have no idea how the heatsould stuff works
i guess it lets you draw into stuff
but legitimately how are you making heatsoul in this version? linkuriboh + sunlight?
i guess also ip
have you been following our convos here?
I have not been following
Yeah I'd be interested in Heatsoul combos pretty happy in my build though feels pretty solved, haven't changed it just been perfecting play and siding patterns. 1 flex spot in the ED and 2 flex spots in the main. Side will change commonly
I've been testing it for more then a week and a half
like i'm open to new info
but i need more than just a pile of statments that's the opposite of all the stuff we've learned XD
Zealantis is not a win more card cause it's a piece to provide better combos
People like 2-3 Fraktall 2-3 Kitt 2 nervall 1 Kerass 2 revolt.
What was exactly the opposite? I'll be glad to elaborate
1 revolt*
i explained it 😛
2 revolt is wild in a not pure Tri list
Typo
Okay that's more like it haha
it's wild in a pure tri list
And I thought portal was talking about the Facebook guy
nah
Only read the zealantis doubt
He was saying all these statements like diabellestarr is bad, 1 Garunix 3 sanc etc
Sanctuary is literally better then the entire wanted line
Yeah but 1 thing I noticed in this build, card advantage/economy is way lower than the pure variant. The wanted draw helps alot especially when you're gonna have to put a card back for Revolt
That is the exact opposite
Wanted is very susceptible to everything, neging more the plusing at the end of the day
Not when you send Tenki
And being able to put Tris in GY without Fraktall eff and before using your NS is big
We die to droll anyways
Fraktall is the best card vs droll, reason to why it should be a 3 of without discusión
the entire deck dies to droll
literally the whole deck
the only card that doesn't is opening sanctuary
Tenki when you have combo without normal summon in hand, aka field spell and a fire is either have droll or lose
Cause if I search out the arvata you're not winning lol
If you Fraktall and search then get drolled you're still not getting Revolt
What line is tenki+sanctuary+fire?
stuff
But you still have an interuption
Not like every other card in the deck
what now?
We need to map out the field spell lines, those are my preferred cause you don't commit anything
My point exactly why fraktall still gives you an interuption post droll
I'll usually bait out everything then go field spell
Sure but you're probably still losing
there's no sequencing normal ponix to avoid droll
What are your ratios to lose?
Precisely
Yeah but to what he states there are ideals for other interactions
I'm saying if you Fraktall first play, dump Kitt nervall add Fraktall. Then droll. You're most likely losing
You have a 50% chance to opening 2 non engine with 12, fraktall as a first action should provide at most 50/50 3 interuptions post droll
how?
How what
you can't search revolt, sanctuary, or garunix
2 non engine plus frak is 3
how the fuck are you making interactions?
The 2 negate apo, or Sp Knight, or rugal and other 4 probably aren't going to cut it. No revolt, no access to FK monster unless you opened up. You can commit further to board if you have Tris to maybe get a DDL as well but from my experience of playing Tri for the last two years that's not consistently powerful enough
You build the deck to draw them if you don't your losing either way going second
Yeah in theory
there's also the fact that we're ignoring: wanted dodges droll
it gets you ponix while never risking droll
Doesn't always play out that way, droll is a back breaker plain and simple. That's the case for all Tri variants lol
Then what? Add sanctuary get drolled?
same difference in the other hands without it
Your not playing around it you're still losing to the same thing
you're just losing another way
like you're saying we're wrong, while being equally wrong
Even worse then just normalling ponix cause you use another card
It's mental how you believe this
you're losing to droll here
how is that different?
"oh i have more cards in case i don't get OTK'd into the sun next turn"
big whoop
I'm making 1 card have value as an interuption post droll you are losing 2 cards for no value
How is so difícult to understand that 1 interuption is more then 0?
because your example is also 0
what are you producing? a 2 negate apo?
tri is a deck that searches revolt and sometimes makes apo or DDL
i've played tri since it came out
Dragon lords and SP are still cards that can be made with 1 fraktall
Not without other cards in hand
If you frak to add a Kitt you have ddl and follow-up
Wdym?
most other cards that aren't non-engine require other cards to do something
that's how this deck works
Both DDL and Sp Knight at the same time or you're saying either or
Either or
Right, yeah I acknowledged that above that's not enough
You know that's literal the entire aim of pure Tri brigade right?
That board is not enough
normal a tri, banish 2 for ferijit, summon tri from hand if you have, link fraktal and ferijit for sp, other tri make ddl
Like yeah with just frak you can make both
if you don't have another tri, you make bearbrum, banish 2 to summon a tri
same result
so yes
That's not 1 fraktall
That's another Tri as well
ya
But I'm specifically saying that one frak no other cards is still 1 interuption post droll
one of the ones sent of fraktal
you summon it with bearbrum 1st effect
then link bear and fraktall for sp
the tri you summoned from banished makes ddl
Cool, I'm saying that's not enough in today's competitive format. Yes starting with fraktall is better than starting with Tenki. But let's not act like Fraktall with no other Tri in hand is a viable game plan lol
it is better than nothing, but you likely had to get rid of any chance of follow-up you had if they beat it, but either way you were screwed
oh ya
summon with new tri first
then sp
or apo with 3 mats
i do see it now
i've just been focused on using tri as an engine for fire king, i forgot about normal tri plays
You have to be real in this case, if you draw frak and no other tri beast then is most likely you have non engine and if you don't there's a hard drawn revolt, then we get to the bad cards to draw, which still can be discarded as mentioned above
last time i played tri before this i had 0 fraktal because spright tri
tbh, it leaves you in a spot where if the other stuff in hand is like garunix + new kirin you're well off
make sp and leave a fire on board
make garunix one of the discards
then on the next turn you summon kirin to summon garunix, then destroy kirin from deck to revive and pop a card
there is one opinion i'm curious to see what you answer
how many tenki?
Now to the other thing in question sanctuary/ island > wanted engine
Lol i play 3
it's 5 slots that could be 3 non-engine + 2 engine
we have a love/hate with tenki here
it's real good but makes us die to droll sooner
though that video from earlier today makes a good point
if you're dying to droll then tenki didn't make that worse
whereas spoils does
since it costs 1 card extra
The deck does die to droll but it's a necessary evil to maximize on the best Tri, have Virtually 4 Arvata (ponix + Arvata best pure fire king combo) so 3 imo is best
it recovers 1 random card from the draw
but that doesn't 100% make up for it
since if you didn't wanted and in both situations you got drolled
in the hand without wanted you have 1 more card
i've been very close to cutting spoils engine since friday
I like 2, I'm not starting my plays without preferably since it plays into Droll , and I don't want to see multiple
The best thing about Tri is that multiple are not as bad since you have the put back option
Not starting my plays with it*
i feel like spoils is you really need a benefit besides ponix
and we can't play ash and flamberge really
we could, but that's 2 more slots we don't have
and they have 0 synergy with tri
btw, can you show us a recent list?
If youre not convinced in a theoretical approach I also tested wanted engine due to it in theory looking really good, but in practice it was horrible for me losing multiple multiple games and really starting a win streak after cutting it
i feel like every game i did well was one where i didn't have any spoils stuff in the open
That's my list, initially when I was on rescue ace I was top 100 then fell to 2000 something with Tri fk. Today I hit 600s again. The ranking doesn't matter but I've been winning more consistently
i think increasing past 40 helps with the issues wanted causes
I'm currently 900+ rating
but i don't want to do that tbh
i can't stand DB ranked
the most i ever did it was goat and that was insufferable enough
I'm on Dueling nexus db has too many cancerous players
i'm using omega with chat disabled
Yeah kinda harsh, was an hour waiting for judge today cause of another fk player wanting to shark me haha
just look at dire's tweets lately about trying to play generaider in db
This deck is OK though it's not tier 1 I think
hell no
Tri king imo is the best version of fk
results say otherwise
Yeah I don't think so either, it plays harder into Droll and runs less non engine
You have to keep in mind that the majority of fk players are playing pure
i think the ability of the pure + spoils version to run a million non-engine is super good right now
And the ratios really hit harshly if not played correctly
It may be better going first
btw, the tweets i referenced:
https://vxtwitter.com/direYGO/status/1736580079449202703
https://vxtwitter.com/direYGO/status/1736587443418157484
generaider obviously just too strong
I got clapped the other day by one
But I didn't finish my clarifications hahaha
true
There's a niche interaction that some cards have, that made Kash one of the best decks
i feel like kash just did well because macro + big monsters with oppressive effects
but ya
Being annoying to remove from board letting the deck try again next turn if interrupted
stuff like prospy banish ntiss/garura then attaching them to later detach is big
Wanted engine doesn't do this, if stopped in anyway you can't try again next turn
Fk do have this interaction reason number 1 to why sanctuary/island is better then wanted
until february it's basically up to player skill and deckbuilding which variant is better
It's a pseudo way
Tri also provided this niche interaction in some way
Fr hahaha
bonfire add populus is insane
Idk the GY effs are pretty cracked lol
and on top of that the link 3
Add a level 1 fire, or draw a card. I think I will lol
bonfire is full combo
For heatsoul and zealantis Im the guy that made some YouTube shorts for these combos and posted them in Facebook groups
huh
It's better to see the combo it speaks for itself
You the 1 Garunix guy
in tribrigade duelists? or a fire king group?
I commented that somewhere and also said it here
do you have a current list btw?
i like the heatsoul line
In the comment he sakd he was keeping it under wraps lol
I get it, but in the city I live its normalized to not put in the work and ask for list and I've had several people just message me for various list for different decks and it's something I've grown to hate hahaha
for me i see it as just hurting the community to not share info
like if you have some super secret tech
like the thing where pak had crossout for yeap
i get it
but ratios are just math
I share info happily but the list is hours of work and giving so many hours for free is painful
Math, reasons, testing, etc
😂 😂
this is probably a bad time to tell you i don’t even like the zealantis line that much
Liking and it being optimal over every other thing is different
the only thing i'm missing here is this: are you just testing alone? or is this in a testing group of good players?
because i find a lot of people find something that happens to work well enough for them
but isn't actually correct
I'm testing alone cause I'm also kinda bored of the players in my city
There not bad just bored of their gameplay
that kind of thing keeps you from finding problems
like you can just be ultra tailored to the DB environment
but that's just 1 meta
not true
if you encounter different interactions that affect ratios it matters
like 1 garunix
if you encounter 0 dd crow
Reason to why I'm db for a day I had to play 3 cosmic in main thanks to Schmidt's win
Already had it banished, not drawing the card that's useless with my secondary engine is more important than having 2 in the case of a single card
I even banish it in some combos cause revolt brings it back
The only thing that has me thinking on changing in my current list is ddl and the second ferjit for a link 3 and access
rugal is useful sometimes
Never has come up for me tbh
the revive to put a fire on board helps
ddl is cool but i rarely make it
ddl is really good if you're already running tenki
I make it in moments where I couldn't kill for an extra interuption haha
the funny thing about the video earlier is still rangbali
I've practically already gave my list with everything that I'm saying
What video? The guy that played 2?
please check out the GoFundMe for a good friend of mine. even if you can't donate, a simple share or view goes a long way.
and your insight is highly appreciated
oh i can get a very general idea of your list minus the full ED
i need help with the ED it’s a madhouse in mine
mine from today is okish:
2nd sp feels overkill
i get the uses, but this deck doesn't need them as much
true
the dharc is neat but hard as fuck to summon
how is dharc for you?
never used it
lol
i've yet to use hita either
same with typhon and ding
but i get the uses for ding
hiita is cool sometimes
hiita is explicitly good for the mirror
ding is nice in certain matchups
or at worst summon ash to climb
but then again
climb to what?
i'm not using access
real
btw i had cut access because this deck has no issues going for otk
Fr heatsoul is a must
i need a 2nd shuraig
You just stated 3 cards that could be cut for heatsoul line
2nd shuraig?
i think they meant the charmers
i’m playing linkuriboh and anima almiraj
i feel like having a way to convert kitt into something is needed
Almiraj alone is only good in a hand like sanctuary/handtrap(not ash)/tri beast(not fire)
in bad as hell hands
it doesn't fix nerval only hands
but it lightly fixes kitt ones
That's why nerval at 2 is a must
well even with 2
if nerval is your only relevant thing because almiraj
it's a problem
Yes but drawing the one of invalidates your entire tri engine
3 is just horrible hahaha
i'm fully off it in this build because of the convo
I consider the best Tri line up to be frak 3, Kitt 3, nerv 2, kerass 1, revolt 1
ya
it makes sense
my new main is coming along:
i like the one-of crow because it's searchable
Same
It's part of the combos
Normal Ponix make almiraj pop fire in hand
Yeah thats in another playlist
Pure fire king combos haha
ya, i need to learn those
i've come at this from a mainly tri angle with basic learn as i go fire king stuff
i hate how nothing lines up, imma fix that
Nice thing to keep in mind is that after understanding the basic fire king lines you'll know when it's best to send Kitt of off garunix
im putting crossouts in for my list
i usually just do it if i have kirin in hand tbh
One combo I didn't put but I'll add later is just sanctuary/island plus any fire
Makes apo + revolt
now with more alignment:
Yeah that's basically it, or when fk gives 0 value haha
i mean if you don't have sanctuary as well
since at best fk stuff provides bodies and a pop in that case since no xyz
Yeah, you basically have my main just the last card we have a different idea towards
?
Garunix
ya
i like it at 2 because it helps with otk and weird stuff
and simultaneously tenki is ok to me
but 2 is fine with 3 fraktal
i feel like drawing garunix is nice going 2nd
like an ideal hand is garunix + 1-2 fires + sanctuary/island if you want to otk into a weakish board
Yeah it's nice but the fact that it holds 0 value in a Tri hand doesn't even make me consider
I already play 3 cards that are just bricks when only drawing Tri I don't want 4
i get it
Oh and sky burn too, but it's to good hahaha
and tenki is arvata, which is excellent in tri hands as if the tri hand has fraktal you don't NS
sky burn lets you dodge imperm going 1st
that alone is worth it a bit
Yeah I've done that once only but it's satisfying
Oh and the issue with card advantage also gets covered with zealantis línes
it's like a worse version of the floo quick play XD
but also it's ridiculous removal on you opponent's turn
It's so good in pure I'd play 2 tbh
btw, spellbound has been cool the few times i've drawn it
i like it too
It's a cool card
i love that it hoses floo
any deck that can play shifter is my mortal enemy at this point
and floo can loop shifter
fr
i'll try 1 garunix
outside of my saturday locals (if it even happens) locals are dead for 3 weeks
yay for working at home
Good luck in testing and locals hope my ideas help
i get to roll out of bed
except i have to drive my gf to work some days
whatever, 4 more days before 2 weeks off
time to copy my list to nexus so i can practice during work XD
edo is basically my deck builder, since it's the easiest to copy from to other spots
that makes sense
ydke button then ctrl+v for omega
on nexus and book you import the ydk
best part of omega:
i use rush duel frame for the big version
it's funny omega doesn't use the link layout from the dub, it's basically the same
i should probably get to be at this point too
i'll do a bunch of testing with that list tomorrow night i guess
This was a very interesting conversation lol
I like the idea of heatsoul!
More cards in hand is always good
I also think we should strongly consider crossout to avoid death by droll
ive also been testing crossout
it also helps with imperm, which is a lot harder to punish
How did you make space?
U could probably cut 1 arvata to get the 3rd crossout if you wanted
Yeah, let me know please. My time is really limited right now so i cant do much testing myself for awhile
@tidal quartz going through your heatsoul replay, why does kirin go back to your hand after?
sunlight wolf im guessing
lol
Huh, apparently I have been given a role because I talk a lot about the tri version
When making heatsoul it always goes to hand when you summon linkuriboh under sunlightwolf
But didnt you put ponix back to hand via sunlight wolf
I remember having a misclick in one but no it's always kirin
Since you don't need Ponix in hand cause heatsoul is already the fire you can pop with kirin
So um, I guess I'll defer to you guys when there's something I don't know about to help with stuff
I feel like this is a good excuse to finally getting around to writing a Yugioh deck guide/breakdown. I did always complain about the lack of written yugioh content.

NGL the video is very very hard to follow. Some effect declarations and maybe mentions in the chat would help tremendously. As well as having a clean record with no missclicks.
Do we have a place to find replays for combos etc. I feel like I'm not using my engines well enough. Like at all.
Yeah I tried watching some the other day, it's just not my style
The deck is really versatile in its line,same cards can go to differents endboards
Like Fraktal+ponix
I'd say I made rugal revolt with eternity setup a lot last Saturday. But I don't know if I could have made different board by using my resources better. It's like I'm usually using the engines side by side and not together. Also trib I think I could do more. Like I never made things like ddl to supplement my board even if I'm sure I could have. Ofc I have no specific hands I can tell you
Vagabond posted some yesterday
The curse of the giant thread. Bad search.
Can we get the thread made into a full channel so we get functions back and make threads inside here?
One thing worth trying if you're not used to it is to give yourself a tri-only hand and try out the limits of those
I think they're planning on something like that
I'll test around. Inexperience is huge for me right now. Especially since I'm not a seasoned trib player either.
That makes sense
I've gone from lyrilusc tri to pure to zoo, back to pure, spright, now fire king
Forgot the brief attempt at branded tri in the middle there
Back before verte was banned
Huh. Zealantis I see. Interesting
I need to learn those combos
I sorta took this deck from a tei-brigade perspective without knowing any fire king stuff other than the basics
Literally normal ponix, sanctuary, island, Garunix kill barong from deck, pass
That is my current knowledge checkpoint too
I didn't know anything more complicated with the links
I think I'm gonna attempt to write up a guide
Not sure I'll be able to this week, it I'm off 2 weeks for Christmas
You think just getting flamberge ash and the normal snake spell is wise good right now? Even if I don't want to get wanted
Not sure, might be a better question for the main deck room
Tru
But I think they may not be worth if you won't be able to get bonfire
Bonfire makes Populus insane
Well I might be able to get bon but not bon plus wanted plus witch plus Promethean
Get what you can now
I know flamberge went up recently
But honestly ask in the main deck building room
Ye
I already have everything for that build so far, I super lucked out on my wanted pre-orders
Sold my wanted from preview event to get sp lol
Worth it
SP is more versatile
I'll probably be bothering people here for ideas and proofreading for the guide whenever I start it
The zealantis stuff is very interesting in vagabonds vids. The fact that you can link of shuraig while preserving the body is something
Never written one before
The other use technically is linking off apo if she somehow survives
Somehow
I feel like most people normal and attack over out of spite
If you have Revolt they lose the Battle phase for nothing hahaha
I usually dont like zealantis because you cant link It off after that so you never searched for Revolt in the Kerass + tri-type combo
So far it looks like a nice tool for building the big boards. The frak trib Tri type combo from vagabonds videos is insane.
What sold me on the deck as a whole was when I got evenlyd on Saturday and I flipped revolt, got shuraig kept him then in MP 2 Kirin in hand enabled pop 1 banish 1 with follow up. Felt like a genius
Yeah, evenly do not kill us
You can also keep Apo if you want,you trigger Revolt at the start of the Battle,get Kitt to hand and if It was a bait,you can still trigger Omen with Kirin
Endboard was rugal set imperm island sanctuary revolt.
Then yes,keep Revolt for the banish hahaha
Jeah there was no reason why I should have revolted in response to evenly. Still won that one tho
Anyone knows how to deal with Horus?
Try to otk them if given the chance
Always remove the one that recovers 2 cards first
Btw, I love how because I'm the one that spoke up, I became our representative XD
Just gives me a reason to learn more sooner
i 100% agree, i am still confused watching it
it is super nice some people are willing to record and help like that, but at that point, why would you post something that isn't done exactly right to help the most people?
Banlist
Nothing changes for us I think? Second pank for side maybe
Tcboo at 2 that's it really
1
Yeah my bad
our deck here doesnt change at all, we are 100% the same
Yep
i'm decently active in the infernoble sever....they are a wreck. I feel bad
Lol they shouldn't be surprised
isolde kills the whole deck, a more fair hit would have been connector. It isn't like that deck was killing it
it does suck. Some of those people in there are completely in shambles. I feel bad. I enjoyed that deck but skill level was too high for me at the time i wanted to play it. Required too much time to get mastered which i still don't have until really february
deck was really cool though
They got like 2 events to enjoy the deck and then bum
Didn't they have a non Isolde line anyways and did the Isolde one for baiting imperm?
not really Isolde is really everything
Then I've been lied too
now the deck has to function through angelica, which is not nearly as strong and if you can stop angelica, it ends. and even if you let angelica go, it isn't nearly as strong.
maybe the chefs over there can cook
but right now it seems completely joever
The fact they can't free send ring and p blade anymore is big I guess
i think we are going to see a lot of people joining the server now
i'm sad about infernoble, but i look forward to brewing it in master duel now i guess
i have this deck as a backup, also dlink
so i'm sad, but fine
i like this deck more than infernoble. It helps that the learning curve is halved bc I have a lot of experience with Tri and love playing with them
i like decks where i sort of just figure out a combo as i go
this, infernoble, dlink, branded
same, i love tri-decks, spright, VW, i also really really like punk gold pride
I've thinking and reading the sheet found in the FAQ about the main combos of Pure/Diabel FK and i though that we could make something similar, so i started another Sheet to documents the combos with DB replays:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XGCakwaKaJRErdDUsfDvV7ok-Rh8r08NPwWsK-VVGqQ/edit?usp=sharing
Feel Free to edit it
I will add more combos tomorrow
there's a thing i've seen some others do in replays where you tupe in the chat during the game you record to explain stuff, not sure how much we need here, but its nice when stuf needs clarifying
i want to attempt to write a guide, and having combo links to point to will help that process
that way i can focus on explaining the deck and the card choices
no idea if i'll be able to have the energy to start until the weekend because of work >_>
but i have 2 weeks off at least
only 3 days away
hahaha
I put some comments in the replays during the Standbay process
So it is clear what i'm doing
I will try to document all the combos that i made during my games on omega/edo/paper
woo
i need to go watch those shorts vagabond posted yesterday at some point
i still find it funny that i'm the person picked to represent us
i am basically half the posts...but i also post like 3-5 things at a time
I also try too focus in either 2 card combos or 1.5 as 3 card combos are not "common" enough to keep in mind when choosing the deck
I wanna try TriKings
you've come to the right place
Any good starting decklist or skeleton?
If i somehow dont have a linkuriboh do i even bother with heatsoul
And sunlight wolf
Idk how i dont have 1
nah that entire combo is cuttable
i see a lot of videos of people on higher tri-brigade counts
Hmm. Wat is the best thing to do if you hard open garunix with ponix?
Normal ponix get sanc and fki pop ponix get Kirin special garunix pop kit? Barong wouldn't really get me far right? Get me arvata for next turn but I still have garunix on field doing nothing.
Wait no. Now I have a trib in hand and Kirin. I don't want to discard him for kerass or I will not have him next turn
Assuming the rest of my hand is like all imperms
Just 3 mat apo set revolt?
3 mat apo and revolt is my go to end board
and if i can get the hyang garunix online
Well it is a good endboard if you also have interaction in hand. Too bad this line can't get hyang online too. Need a Tri type
Or am I missing something?
That's why i like diabell in this version
Diabell + Garunix is both 3 Mat apo and the FK set Up
Well. I don't have a month's rent lying around so that isn't going to happen 🙂
I dont have wanted neither
buuut
I have 3 Diabell
😂
As combo porpouses
It is the same
I do not know what to cut to get space for linkuribo
Without it the Heatsouls line do not work mostly
Linkuri is required for heat jeah.
Zealantis stole my heart. This is where I am right now. I don't know what to put in the last few slots (pre banlist) for Friday. Also not so sure about the beast warrior ratios. Maybe a second arvata for a tenki?
If you have gas normal arvata and go trib combo is very nice
Yep
Swapping a tenki for arvata might be right I think.
Also sometimes you want to have 2 arvatas to pop 1 from Deck from garunix
And still have the other
I still haven't wrapped my head around arvata yet. The revive reads cool but I haven't found a way to use it turn 1. Is this just a turn 3 thing?
Ideas for the last few slots? Don't own any spellbounds
Oh this is the last locals pre banlist. So tear running rampant is very possible.
Buuut I have no druis. Only 1 magna 3 baldrake
You can summon it out turn 1 with Ferrijit if youve normal summoned something else, but I would say that mainly, for the Tri build, it's there for the revive. Your opening combos should do a good job simplifying the game state and then having Arvata and High Kirin looping eachother while constantly reviving Garunix is very advantageous
Thanks. Hopefully i get some good opportunities on Fr to play. Sometimes they cut the tournament short BC of very dumb reasons or I get non-games
I’ve seen some people run 2 sanctuary so you could cut one of those
Yes, the next action is correcting and getting kirin haha
I placed the combos from easiest to hardest in 2 playlist, the issue is that with so many declares any final notes would be covered by the like, share, comment buttons
Understandable. Still very useful and inspiring.
That was long ago haha, my list is a bit different and imo solved just wanting to add access to test
I can still go for a longer video to have both resources and maybe add some audio, but I don't mind the feedback I've always done combos for several several decks and topped multiple times in regionals I legitimately believe I have decent information that can help people top events, hell my super heavy samurai list made it to second place in MX nationals this year
Nice I got 8th at Knoxville's regional and day 2 at US Nats this year both with Tri spright so it's good we have some irl experience
Friend went 5-0 with a list he threw together Sunday at one of our larger locals, list was just thrown together too. But he's a really good player, don't think the lists matters too much. The build is pretty flexible I feel
There are things that aren't flexible aka blatantly incorrect like 1 nerv, or 2 kirin, 2-3 arvata
The tri engine is kinda frágil on its numbers, using it mainly as consistency to get into the fire king combo is worse then playing nadir, but actually using it as a secondary engine is the way to go
Yeah outside of major things I feel the deck is still kinda easy to make a generally correct list
It's moreso knowing how to play it, I feel
Yeah knowing the end bards with any hand is just a cheat code for the deck, since it can vary
Also a lot of hand con go way diferent ways
Like, ponix + fraktal
You can treat fraktal like a fire
or try to push for tri
Yeah, I realized that after I sent the message lmao. Sorry about that 😅
For example, that's heatsoul or SP, fire king setup, revolt, or apo fire king setup
I'm gonna test some tonight, didn't have time yesterday. I saw the combo with zealantis and I guess it makes sense for that more limited hand
But you can also just go for SP, but block the arrows annoyingly
I'm sold on heatsoul purely on the fact that it gets you an extra card to put back for revolt of bearbrumm
Well shit
Ok I saw the last combo on the list
I'm sold on zealantis
@tidal quartz I don't get the point of activating zealantis at the end of the last combo
It just lets you move zealantis effectively
Refering to this one: https://youtube.com/shorts/rJ4l2v_5ivs
Thanks was sabot to ask
I realized you were on mobile so I linked it
Yo put it in a position where it's colinked with apo
Yeah it quick eff pops for every colinked
So up to 3 in this combo
Mention that on the side for the sp,zealantis and on this one I think
Quick eff pops in BP
When you say sp there, you mean standby right?
Yes, like the buttons in db, DP draw phase, SP standby phase, M1, BP, M2, Ep
This stops people from walking over apo as well ideally
Without zealantis there people just bait apo once then summon a 1700+
I'll practice and test tonight then
I'm not sure if I have Saturday locals this week since it's close to Christmas, same for next Saturday. Guess I'll see
Yeah it's good to have so many layers in these combos
And since they are unknown cards they'll usually just go to BP so for the first weeks it's free games out of lack of knowledge
That's the main appeal to the tri build, less space for non-engine, but varied disruption
If you set revollt Pass over apo should be dificult by itself
As you can banish any threat
Best thing that happened at locals once was they had storm for my island, sanctuary and set revolt. I used revolt in response and protected island with sanctuary
Then I got my Shuraig banish when I summoned kirin
The fact that shuraig banish is on bbw summon and not just his own is sooo good
That why i like to play rugal
You can use Revolt in response to backrow removal without losing the banish
we got a list!
not the same as what we've been testing, but similar ideas at least
the 3 nerval is...a choice
1 Garunix
Yeah the list is flexible like I was saying just really need to know how to pilot it
Know what endboard your hand makes
Good general non engine
And side for what you're worried about
Top 8 with no diabell 
I agree with vagabond on no spoils in this build
My friend who went undefeated didn't run it either, but I also think he doesn't have it. That's most likely the case with most people who play this deck, they come to it with budgetary reasons in mind
But it doesn't need it
I have it, and have basically had a bad time most times I accessed it unless the rest of my hand was non engine
I think if you run it you have to go over 40 just no way to run it and enough non engine
It also just doesn't do enough
If you get it and ponix it's basically neutral
Those slots could have been anything else in that case
IF
This is a solid list. But it also looks unrefined. I feel like with more tournaments innovation will get into the top lists too.
This looks mostly like a Tri brigade list with a splash of fk
I agree with that
I agree with the if you open wanted and Ponix, not the thing about the list
I don't think thats a bad thing
Also the event only had 100 players and it's still kinda new so people aren't playing against it optimally. But yeah I would cut some Tris, but again my friend ran similar and did well too. The tri provides a solid base and fallback
I agree. If you want to perform at a bigger event consistency is key. And if the deck is kinda new playing low to the ground is safer. People gotta learn the deck too
I replaced Tenki for it
I usually tend to go more for the FK side of the deck if posible and extend with tri
Yeap seems good
this deck is very cheap for me lol
i just need tri and fire king core
oh and tenki etc
good list i like it
yeah thats been the problem for me, idk if i should approach the deck as a fk deck with a tri engine or tri deck with a fk engine
i feel your pain bro, it was shavara and plants for me
i feel like if it's fk with a tri engine, just play fk or fk spoils
or fk nadir
which is terrible
oh wait
you said the reverse
i mean i guess
but fk requires a lot of cards to truly benefit
what goes out for zealantis?
i want to try it
it's either typhon or ding it feels like
@tidal quartz opinions? (if you're awake, no idea on time zone)
i say dingy
i'm proud of how much i was able to make parts of the deck line up
ding 100%
omega ui is so nice
Tri already has non destruction removal in shuraig, ding is not necesary
designated yapper
yeah i think the destruction protection would be the more useful effect
i literally saw skarlon meming about the @ everyone from the admin, so i came to post in that room about how the tri deck is actually a worthwhile budget option
and boom, role
look at how clean that lines up
i think you can just copy the ydk and import it to db
Thanks!
ok that's annoying though
it's linked to my actual deck list
one sec
ok, i renamed it and made a copy so i don't edit it by accident, link is the same
Perfect!
valid alternative btw
made by gallantron from /r/yugioh
the urls are insane because it encodes the deck list
Oh wow
it's a neat site
i found it through the budget deck master posts back when those were being made
i think duelingbook is more visually appealing
the price breakdown is neat though
most expensive card: sp
2nd most by 85 less? typhon 😛
S:P cost almost as all the deck together
You can play Donner/unicorn
Yep
i've had one since lyrilusc tri
wow 11$ in TCGplayer
ya
But only 3€ in cardmarket
3rd most expensive card in the deck XD
btw, if you don't own spellbound and it's cheap, get them
they're really decent
not every meta fits them
but they're nice
it's worse dbarrier that works going 2nd
if you encounter a lot of floo, unchained, or other fire kings, it's not bad
opponent triggers sanctuary: spellbound
how necessary is the heat soul line fr
bc i want space for doom eagle
and its between that and hiita
if you want to do it you need heatsoul and linkuriboh, otherwise cut both i guess
hiita is really good
Even Sunlight
3 spaces
hiita is good just because ash blossom exists
It is good in the "mirror"
yes
you can joink a Garunix
Link into S:P or any other link-2/3
usually s:p yeah
i'm just trying this version out to see how i like it
if i have locals saturday i get even more practice
was just clearing some dailies in md first
been playing bystial runick
it literally feels like bullying playing that deck
you slowly dwindle away all their shit, then by turn 10 when you finally get a battle phase you have 4 bystials on field
i would play it in paper...but i only have 2 quem T_T
also i feel like in person i'd fuck it up
do you need need the 3rd?
i think youll be fine if you practice
it's just a very good opener
ya, but also i have this deck
and i have 1-2 locals a week
MD lets me try out tons of other stuff
we have 3-4 locals a week
bros not of the grind set mind set
no
lol i only ever go to 2 too
i'm almost 33, i'm not busting my ass to win a few packs
locals schedule as of 4 years ago, it's mostly accurate:
montreal has a lot of card stores
yep
are they euro print?
most stores don't carry them XD
it's basically big box stores
for stores that sell singles its not worth it, even for pokemon
damn
people want english cards so they retain value
is that just bc the american market is so big?
ya
i see
i did very much want to get my infernobles in french to be on theme
that would've been nuts
i want to have more foreign cards
i feel like it's easier to get them for mtg
i think because people love weird versions of cards for commander
yeah you have to buy on ebay if you want them
tcgplayer sometimes has them, thats how i got my leinkuriboh
someone at my locals has all spanish gold rare eldlich cards
when they were expensive i had to buy evil hero malicious bane and evil hero adusted gold in german
i made a little double-sided laminated card with the details in english to keep in my deck box
oh thats sick
Yeah dings the correct thing to cut
Funny enough I've never played a regional with TRI brigade even though I've played all versions of the deck
First time in January
Or is it 6 I think I topped twice with salad due to how long it lived hahahaha
For specifically?
i guess deck building/ longevity of this variant
also how good is heatsoul package
I usually have a way to building every deck, kinda basic honestly, cut the bricks, if you cant break a board with engine play 12+ non engine, if you can play 9, always exploit the one card combos and work your way up from there it always clears your way on cards that are bricks and cards that aren't
This variant I feel it's good up until February
I saw a Tri win some event recently in ocg so I might give it a try either way with princess
Luckily I don't need to do the regional as I got my invite
Top 4 OTS championship a month ago
let’s go
1st place played that cyberdark exosister list
I was on spoils infernoble
I forgot to ask about judging the regionals though
I still haven't gotten to judge an event yet
opponent NS dolphin in branded to clear ash
