First duel on a fresh account because I can't access my main account right now and I get BLOWN OVER by full power Fiendsmith Tearlaments. (I'm playing a slightly modified variant of the Onomat Utopia beginner deck)

Can you imagine that being your first EVER duel? I'd never want to play the game again lol.

See you in the tournament — IT’S TIME TO D-D-D-DUEL! 🔥

Now, I already know this game is pure shit in this actual state, but you cannot tell me this is not rigged. I played 2 games one after onother, first going second and second going first, and it's actually impossible (or a fucking miracle) I got the same, fucking hand, same order and all.

They had me right?! This was my win into Diamond rank and I can’t even enjoy it because I feel like they want me to know, this promotion was because of them not me 😭😭 holy fuck (not chain blocking Rock with Valius was a stupid thing to do btw)

He surrendered immediately when he saw the face down card 😂

I started the game around a month ago after an 8ish year break and played around with Darklords. I’m planning on picking up Branded and after playing a combo deck I’m not quite sure how they survive with so little on the actual board with not many negates

Besides, them picking at my board piece by piece is what I love about going second with DoomZ. They could have been in a really good position if they’d search an equip spell for Drastea instead of the trap on that last bit, but hindsight is 2020.

Just started playing 2 weeks ago and ive gotten alot of good staple cards but im looking to play decks that are relatively new that wont get hit on a banlist or will come out in a month or 2 so i can play them at full power.

If calamity is ban why is Blazar allowed to stay?

I managed to deal with my opponent’s centurion board as best I could, and I realized that Blazar’s effect isn’t limited to once per turn.
I mean, he negated 3 of my effects during the End Phase because he was banishing himself and re-summoning himself.

I know that Blazar itself is difficult to summon, but Crimson Dragon bothers me; I understand that it can boost decks like Blue-Eyes,centurion ect —which I don’t have an issue with—but isn’t it just too powerful to be able to bring out any super-strong Synchro Dragon for free like that?

On the other hand, a card like Stardust Sifr Divine Dragon doesn’t bother me I find it well-balanced, without being broken.

what do you think about how permissive Crimson Dragon is?

If the response you’re suggesting is "what if your opponent manages to bring out Crimson Dragon and then Blazar"—well, you’ve already lost. My point was that we reached turn 5 before I lost; that’s not the issue here.

Not losing too much and I'm playing a deck that doesn't get me tilted even if i lose, I'm running a subpar handtrap deck with a branded engine so I'm not totally dead on the offchance my opponent lets me go first. Having horrible luck pulling effect Veilers keep dumping my gems into the alt art pack but no luck

Tried Pure branded it was fun for awhile but losing the cointoss too much so it was like a death sentence lol especially with Elfnote/Artmage/PowerPatron/DoomZ running about so i decided to just go with this since hey might as well go 2nd and interrupt their plays and my deck is def lacking a lot of cards for Turn 0 plays so its mostly for fun tbh my deck is so dumb idc if it loses

What is your favorite HERO deck to play and why?

i could have gotten past this board but the SECOND they milled the statue i was done for i hate this god damn game it makes so so frustrated DURRRRRRRRRR ME FLOODGATE YO< DUUHHHH YOU CANT PLAY NOW DUHHHHHHHH

What should I cut or add to my deck to help make it more consistent?
