This is a really helpful video on the Fire King Snake-Eyes deck that's going to be widely played against this format. Really like the concise and informative insight against the deck.

For any fiend decks you can play dark world puppetry, which can banish 3 cards in any gy as a quick play then discard a fiend. It also recycles banished fiends to your hand the turn after it’s sent to the gy.

I like Belle in centur-ion because it both helps against the fire decks, but it also protects your main combo from dd crow like effects during the end phase

I will! Next week i have my introduction to VV, and then the how to beat guide too! (and if all goes well a deck profile)

Basically what I got from this video is play floo or kashtira

Hit the ponix in the GY using d.d. crow when they activate high kirins effect so it can't revive from the gy making options to be limited by summoning one from hand instead

Hey Matt. It might be hard to do but have you thought about adding engines to the how to beat series? Like the adventure or horus engine.

Runick also is kinda good vs fire king cuz of the banishing from deck thing.

Legit question, if I set The Black Goat Laughs going first against a fire king player, what is the best name to call and do I activate it in DP or wait for them to activate a chain?

Man this is what I call some good fucking content. Cheers from Mx!

Not to generic but what do you think of shaddoll Fusion? You can send Ariel and Dragon to summon apkalone. And then you have a one card permanent card negation, a banish for three cards and a backrow destruction. Alternatively you can also send the earth shaddoll which gives you a monster negate.

i like it but only going 2nd. Going first you add in too many bricks that do nothing on their own

Believe it or not, I had some pretty good games using Galaxy Photon , but what they did which stopped me cold was side in the Fire Barrier Statue lol

Wanted to add that the line that plays around nib ends on even more disruption. It’s like 8-10 not including handtraps off of a single snake-eye ash. Also no snake-eye fire deck plays Barong since you can play around nib without it. Also super poly isn’t that good, it’s just ok. It doesn’t do nearly enough because they just get their resources back from flameberge, if you make Mudragon they will trigger Kirin to pop it early and then you still have to deal with amblowhale in grave, possibly arvata, sanctuary and princess + handtraps. It’s more of a neg 2. There’s also boards that just straight up play around it like the one that plays around nib since you can’t poly apo + amblowhale. In terms of decks with best match ups, yea, kash is good. Branded, it’s not a really good match up I’ve seen a lot of videos where people show combos against them through ash and stuff and basically all the time the snakes-eye fk player makes major miss plays. Branded inherently feels bad against a deck that has a lot of handtraps because a player who knows the match up will always know when to time cards at the best possible moment. Mirrojade is not scary enough since the deck can just extend, ash still hurts, cards like quem + dusk dragon can be played around easily. Really branded only has a good match up when undisputed, but so does any deck. Branded also doesn’t have much non-engine room so players will automatically know they can play a little risk without getting punished. Also branded going 2nd into a snake-eye fire king board isn’t going to happen.

@@denizsyed7699 branded literally is only good in ocg because Maxx C and grass being at 2. It’s not because it’s good into the format if you look at major tournament results branded isn’t’ even doing remotely well. Look, I played branded for a while, and every format people say it’ll be good, like at the start of last year with Kash, me included, and then it’s like tier 2. Also explain how your board breaks a full fire king end board with apo for 2 negates + amblowhale + handtraps, princess, arvata, Kirin in grave, possibly an I:P to bring back for S:P. (This all off of just snake-eye ash). Then, going 2nd, explain how you play through an imperm or ash blossom into the engine of snake-eye fire king if we have any starter + island and like some random fire cards otherwise they were handtraps that would stop you from ending on anything. Also, if branded becomes popular people will just side 3 d barrier and then you die unless you go first.

Snake-eyes dont need fire kings, so you hit kirin and all you do is upset fire king players while not actually addressing the issue which is the snake-eyes.

The thing that sucks is that I am a Kashtira video and they banned Ariseheart and I feel he is needed against this deck. Then again I have them mixed with the snake eye engine (specifically the diabellstar variant) and dimension shifter is a MUST. That or bring us back true king of all calamities or red eyes dark dragoon

how can they play around it? the combo can have 2 possible mandatory effects which turn it on. They also activate flamberge in the DP or SP to play around talents. Even if they use 1 of their interruptions, like princess or IP or a handtrap, you get rid of almost all if not all their GY resources

@Boristien405

5 ай бұрын

@@MattOsheaYGO Once you search the soul release I mean. It's only good if you have an empty board otherwise they can activate some stuff like Kirin, Garunix/Amblo, Flamberge summon back in advance seeing that you have Soul release. All it really trades for after that is like WANTEDs draw and maybe 1-2 follow up pieces which isn't enough value when you die to their existing board anyway.

@MattOsheaYGO

5 ай бұрын

@@Boristien405 if they have garunix, they can pop amblow and bring back princess, but then they dont have it in GY. if they summon back garunix to destroy a card in deck, at best case its a revive from arvarta or kirin, if they link with IP into SP, they dont get the initial banish on you. If they do all of that, their board before you use Soul Release is SP, 2 Lv1s, Garunix, Kirin, Princess. Only 1 of those do something on field, SP (unless they have sanctuary which in that case they get rid of everything they have) Then you can soul release and banish other level 1s, flamberge, amblowhale, IP or other FK cards. Having the 1 soul release get rid of the vast majority of their interruption is incredible. The truth is, there is no perfect answer, but soul release is clearly the best one we have
