Notes & Combos
It's the usual Umi Control decklist with a few changes:
-
No Evenly matched | Around 4 out of 5 times i had it in my hand when i still used it, it was completely useless. Evenly is strong against Branded Despia but i don't feel its necessary to have.
-
Added 2 Dark Ruler No More | This card might not quite match the impact of an evenly matched but this one actually resolves when it matters, and afterwards kairyu-shin will clean their board anyways.
-
2 SSA and SSA2 | Two of both do wonders on consistency and really help with grindgames.
-
An extra Mega Fortress Whale | Your opponent does not have any CBTG targets except for this card so running 2 has won me alot of grindgames, especially versus Branded Despia since they have an extremely hard time once General Raiho hits the field.
Useful extra cards: If you really like the kairyu-shin trap card you can consider running 1 Giga Gagagigo and 1 Maiden of the Aqua, if you want to do this you have to add 1 or 2 extra kairyu-shin trap cards to make it worth the extra bricks. Also adding a copy of TCBOO never hurt anyone.
The extra deck does not matter much, only Marincess Coral Anemone has been usefull so far in over 50 games. N'tss and Knightmare Phoenix have had some use but it's not needed.
Climbing with this deck has been a breeze, non-stop winstreaks of around 5 to get to diamond at the start of the new season. It's actually really fun to play this deck since most of your choices actually matter alot.
