The deck needed to be able to contest first stride by playing a Grade 2 game as well as have enough defensive options to cope through a stride turn to get to its win con.Įxploring the world of Pale Moon, I found that Harri was too fragile and had no early game.

With the relevant decks in mind, I needed to construct or play a deck that can deal with all these decks. What made you decide on Pale Moon to play with? Why a Nightmare Dolls variant?ĭerick: I decided to play Pale Moon as it is a clan that I profession in and with the help of some friends, we were able to come up with the best deck for this format. Jaime: Wow, very well throughout matchups that were some contenders. I also needed to consider fan-favorite decks such as Dailiner, Vanquisher, and Harri as well to name a few. I also thought of decks that were previously relevant too such as Ezel and No Life King which made a huge impact in 2019 and still see play until this day.Ĭollectively, the decks that stood out to me as contenders are: Rising from Clan Collection was Eradicators with the support they received from Vowing Sword Dragon and Demolition Dragon, which gave them a deck that could play the Grade 2 game well. With a slower meta meant more time to set up or to farm resources on your turns which meant Luard would be another contender to be seen in the meta. There are some decks that were minorly affected by this ban list such as Harri and Granblue variants, and then there are others that weren’t such as Overlord and Regalia. So without further ado, let’s start!ĭuring your preparation, what are some things that you mainly focused on? Certain matchups, deck builds, strategies, etc.ĭerick: The main focal point for this tournament in terms of preparation were on the decks that people would potentially take after the nuclear ban list that excluded out the Big 6 (Tahro, Nue Daio, Gastille Daimonas, Visible Songster, Blademaster, and Valkyrion) and some other entities such Jamyocongo, Chaos, and Harri.
