- Welcome to the Invokation Akademy Duelist Theater, where I'll showcase a Genius Invokation deck gameplay, along with a quick guide on how to effectively play it!
I particpated in the Cat's Tail Gathering Season 2 preliminaries, and I'm proud to say got to 12th place, securing a place in the Top 16 and earning a spot in the Knockouts! One of the ways I got there was accurately predicting there would be a lot of FiNaLy (Fischl Nahida Lyney) players, and trying to find a deck that not only has a great matchup into that deck, while also being decent against other common decks like MEW or Yelan OTK.
With an undefeated 6-0 record against FiNaLy, and the preliminaries now over, I'm ready to spill the secret! Though big shoutout to KevinZ, Juslin, and Glasse who were the original brains behind the deck - I just was lucky enough to borrow it for the tournament!
The deck trades offensive characters like Fischl and Nahida, for equally strong defensive characters in Seahorse and Yaoyao. The deck also gets to benefit from Seahorse's two passive abilities - reducing summon damage by 1 a turn and drawing a card. Both of these let you slowly outvalue FiNaLy, while also matching them for damage too! If you've been struggling against that deck, I would highly recommend giving this a try!
If you're a newer player, I'd recommend you check out my TCG-101 series which is aimed at beginners. You can find the series at • TCG-101

I didn’t really think about this earlier bout as soon as magic made rainbow meta I should have known dendro/pyro/electro was gonna be extremely strong, even before magic you could slap almost any unit combo of these elements and the deck would work pretty well
Yeah you have really strong reactions combined with Nahida's raw damage output. Definitely very strong. Same idea with the Liyue friends deck, which already existed but just got way better with magic
I admire the disrespect of not finishing with a burst. 10/10
Sometime I'll second guess myself whether the damage I'm shown actually is correct haha. It was exactly 2 but I was worried I was missing some effect so I went with the safer option heh
@@blepthecat You can just click the attack button to check. Easier that way.
Congrats again on top 16 Blep!
Goodluck for top 16 and if you need someone to do some matches with lemme know and I'll be right there!
Hehe thanks for the offer though I think we're different regions. I should probably just take it easy this week, CTG is draining
@@blepthecat I have a TCG account for every region aha.
Also yeah some rest is definitely a good idea
FYI, opponent's name censor disappeared during one of the turn transitions.
Ahh!!! I forgot to check that RIP. I think this one will be OK though since the player is on a TCG only alt account for NA... thanks for the reminder I'll have to make sure to fix that
@@blepthecat I don't think it's right to censor an opponent's name. Put yourself in your opponent's shoes. Imagine. You play the best TCG of your life. A game so good in one way or another that your opponent decides to share it with the rest of the world. And then your name in the battle gets censored. I'd be a bit irked, ngl.
@@JustAPal I've just done it by default since I started to be polite. There's reasons either way but not everyone may like having their mistakes shown since I tend to feature the winning games from my side. I'll think about it though
@@blepthecat Well you're playing with meta, so the mistakes are generally related to not knowing what you're opponent has. That's just normal gameplay. You're not relying on your opponent making mistakes to make your videos, but instead of clever and powerful tactics. And I'm pretty sure you wouldn't make a video on an opponent who obviously doesn't know how to play the game very well.
@@JustAPal its true, but some players can get anxious about having any misplays shown and I do want to respect that when adding the name doesn't really add anything to the purpose of the video. I appreciate the feedback to help improve the videos, I'll keep this in mind if I hear more players voicing the same idea!
Good cooking, I might try this myself for fun!
Yes! It's pretty effective for sure, definitely try it out
4:41 wasn't it better to equip veteran first (for 0 dice), so that gilded costs 1 with yayoi, you ended up saving 1 die, not 2, correct me if I'm wrong
Hm I think you're right - I messed up there and missed a die. Equipping Veterans first should leave me still with a 2 cost discount and save me another die. Well spotted!
I’ve been messing around with Raiden, Baizhu and Thoma for the same reason. Probably not as reliable, but definitely fun
It feels a little too defensive, but sounds fun!
Nicee video, would be great one for a counter deck for yelan and thunder manifastation since that deck it’s soo op
Haha well... the counter for that deck is more or less aggro decks like Finaly... which are then countered by this.
If you've watched the TCG101 on Archetypes, that's kind of how matchups are, the counters go in a circle.
This deck can fight Yelan OTK though - you want to try to dig for Tandoori round 1 and open on Lyney to overload and threaten Yelan
@@blepthecat thank u! I will try
GREAT PLAY!, the btw, ive seen a lot of videos showcasing how Ailhatam is secretly op with his low-cost burst and NA, do you have a good deck on him that can be competitive for pvp? i don't like pairing Ailhatam with Beidou because it takes too long
Anyone that applies Electro on the first hit would be fine - so Dori or Fischl could both work. Then the idea is R1 you just Skill on your electro, skill on Alhaitham, then just NA/Burst on R2, and then end on a different 3rd character - probably Electro like Cyno
would you be able to make a video explaining how to enter the CTG tournament for season 3?
So they have videos showing how to sign up already, but I'll try to make a post to notify ppl when signups are next open!
It's mostly handled through discord though so make sure to check out genshin impact tavern server when you can
Thank you so much!!
3:58 is gilded+paimon ramp an option? (your play puts more pressure on the opponent round 2)
Watching again I think this might have been the better play overall since I never ended up playing Paimon which is losing out on 1 dice of value.
Against Finaly though I like skilling early because you can only trigger the +1 shield on Seahorse once a round, so if you skip R1 you're also missing out on 1 health.
Can you show the full deck with all cards so we can copy and adjust it? Would really help out the noob players like me!
Check the description, there should be an Imgur link along with the deck code! I'll always include a list for any featured deck
i'd like to know why not baizhu rather than yaoyao?
Yaoyao provides more overall value 2 heal, where Baizhu is only is 1 heal. Also, you don't always want to skill on Seahorse R1 which means you might waste Baizhus second dendro application.
Yaoyaos burst also can all work in one round which can be important
@@blepthecat thanks!
I went 9-2 against Finaly on Keqing overload deck, however, with 23-12 score overall, I wasn't able to make it to top 16 unfortunately, EU was a bloodbath with the amount of invaders this season 🥲
that's a really good score especially with non meta deck, well done!
Nice, a classic deck! That's a lot of Finaly matches though haha damn, almost double mine. That's a really good score though - honestly the difference between going 23-12 or 25-10 and making top 16 can come down to some amount of luck in matchups.
I didn't match against that many leaderboard players while I was playing so it probably helped boost my win rate a bit.
