@@solaphoto7995 No, there are no Fusion Monsters (currently) that state Aluber as a resources and such is non-targetable by Fusion Deployment. BUT that would be silly anyways b/c Aluber essentially has a Fusion Deployment which is Branded Opening. Additionally what you would want to target with Fusion Deployment would either be Albaz or Cartesia. Albaz can be used like a Super Poly and Cartesia is essentially a normal Poly which is why many competitive decks have shed the Edge Imp engine that was being used to pull Poly to hand.
5:17 you can search mercourier with Lost, then banish merc+albaz for the Lubellion. Merc can search Cartesia and you can fuse Cartesia with Aluber for Granguignol. This way Red is live with an Aluber in the GY. Definitely the correct line of play in this scenario imo.
My idea, not sure if it works, if it does it should give 4 interruptions: Instead of going for Albion, go for Lubellion by sending albaz and Ad Libitum. Grab mercourier with lost. Branded in red is live for guardian chimera or dragostapelia. If they try to do something to mj just chain its effect to get value out of it and chain in red. Target the aluber in field if the opponent has no monsters to banish. This line gives you mercourier negate, 2 mirrorjade banishes because of Ad Libitum, and either chimera or dragostapelia
This is very helpful, I love that you actually explained the combos. Those hands weren't even that great but you turned it into something really good. This is why i love Despia
For your first combo why just discard branded in red then grab albion with lost Use albion effect stp foolish counter trap and draw 1 Counter trap effect banish and get back in red in hand Like that you keep duster in red and do a +1 And you dont Die on nibiru Because the normal summon of cartesia is your 5th
I love branded a ton. For the opening hand if you feel you don't need the merc for the negate what can do with Albion cl1 lost cl2 is grab merc make lubelion with merc albaz, cl 1 lubellion cl2 merc add Cartesia for a granguignol (using aluber) play with almost 0 neg with the mirrorjade, beast lubellion, red, banishment. Guignol for a qyaeritis or prosc. Of course you would need merc in the build though. This is weak to nib
Bro you are my favorite person to watch in regards to Branded. I feel other people on CZcams have been making deck lists who don’t actually play with this deck. I can tell you actually win with this deck! Keep it up bro!
My idea for the first hand: Instead of going for Albion with branded fusion go for Lubellion by sending albaz and Ad Libitum. Grab mercourier off of branded lost. Make mirrorjade set red. (Grab whatever you want off of lost, maybe Kitt for next turn branded fusion?). At the very least 4 interruptions: 2 mirrorjade banishes because of Libitum adding it back, one mercourier negate and one guardian chimera/dracostapelia/quaretis whichever you decide to summon off of red.
This deck is so intricate it comes off as intimidating and I am actually nervous to run it since it is so technical. The combo lines are so odd and I struggle figuring out the lines to each play. Thanks for these vids and I've been learning despite my ability to fully grasp this deck.
Bro in the first play, you can actually search mercurier from lost, banish him and albaz with albion's effect to summon lubellion and have an extra search of mercurier (best imo is the shrouded dragon, so you have the discard for lubellion and keep the harpies feather duster). Just an opinion, keep up the good work, thank you for your videos
I am agree with adding the mercourier and using its effect (like Cartesia as in the video). But, as the other comment said, the added card cannot be used as cost for Lubellion. In that way, aluber is not banished and Branded in red can be used on the opponent turn.
Wouldn't it have been better to add the mercouier at cl2 then banish it for lubellion so discard harpies and add cartesia in the first combo Let's you fuse cartesia and aluber for quertis or guingol, mill saronir , mill retribution and then have a branded in red target for next turn and return branded fusion You can also save the cartesia fuse for their turn to add the second mercourier giving you an extra negate
Latley he has been a bit effy, even he didnt knew you can special summon from your hand using fusion deployment, it makes really hard keep up good plays when he keeps making really weird mistakes
@@Atheistcruz I don't think I make "really weird mistakes", but glad you're enjoying the content. We're all here to learn, and that's the best way how to do that.
First combo, scratch merc with lost not cartesia. Then banish merc with Albion instead of aluber. Merc eff to then grab cartesia and can fuse him with aluber to get a despia in grave to have bir live
This first opening hand really showcases the importance of thinking all the way through your line before beginning play. If you have 2 opening and duster and know you’re going for Mirrorjade with lubellion, you should discard the duster first. That way if your Aluber gets negated by imperm, or your branded fusion gets ashed, you can set the opening to again either next turn or in your opponents endphase (provided you’re not dead which is entirely possible)
My take on it is keep deck lean at 40 always, main triple super poly, triple radian kaiju w/2 allure. People play around nib now. Super powerful going first or second and kaiju are more allure fuel in a pinch. 2 allure it’s so powerful in this deck. swapped the 3rd out for feather duster is a good choice. Also because also have foolish, you never want to see 3 allure and the deck has lots of other search options when you have triple fusion deployment on top of branded package. Of course DM and dragoon with a fleshed out super poly package. Been experimenting with 2 branded opening feels good the card can be bricky at 3. I go back and forth on branded beast it’s good but almost toxic if you draw opening hand.
I love to see Branded opening in first hand, but i don know why i always got 2 or even 3 opening at first, following that i was thinking to use only 2 openings
You have to discard a card for the effect of opening at the beginning of the first hand. You forgot that. Therefore you have to discard another one of your hand cards for the effect of the fusion lubellion.
I've been having success with gamma package along ash and nib. What you guys thoughts? Everyone main deck ash now and I threw in dolphin, that can summon by fusion deployment. Ash no longer issue for me.
With your first hand I would have probably discarded harpies or red instead of the 2nd opening there cuz you can get the red back and going first you don’t really need the harpies, however I do understand why you would to keep it BUT your turn ends if your opp has an ash for fusion and if that’s the case you’ll have the 2nd opening for follow up whereas if you discard it, you’re now put in a top deck situation.
With the first hand I would’ve made lubellion, use red to make mirrorjade, and resolve lubellion’s effect to make the dragoon >:). Then set branded banishment since I don’t have the second red.
I have a question what about using the spell card dragons mirror in branded cause if you have you materials in Gy or field you can banish it and summon a dragon fusion and you have like 3 or 4 targets?
Branded opening can be activated during the draw phase so you wouldn't get hand trap if I'm not mistaken, then once you summon at lubar and activate branded fusion all within draw phase it can't be hand trapped. That is what was shown to me at my locals. Is that accurate? If so the deck is more busted than people realize.
Love your branded videos, I was wondering if you could make a master duel version of this deck? I have been wanting to build it but every version online looks so weird. I think you would make a great list
What do you think About allure of darkness at 3 instead of some bystials? I love the feeling of "searching" my superpoly or my side deck options due to that draw power
I personally like allure. But I would rather play the bystials because what would you banish off of allure ? Everything is useful. So I feel allure would be best if you play the edge imp package. Banishing edge imp chain
@@themoeyouknow4266 you can banish mercourier or tragedy to get pluses or if you already have cartesia or aluber, you can banish albaz or dark magician and still get +2
meanwhile, every time I activate Branded fusion, my opponent always has Ash Blossom.😰😰 But I don't think maining Crossout Designator is worth it since it will be dead if one of my opponents runs 0 hand traps on certain local matchups. Best I can do is either main Triple Talent Tactics or Thrust, or PSY-Framegear Gamma in the case I just open up with Branded Fusion, but it's bricky.
I don't think going first board with Dragoon is optional, compare to mirrorjade. Dragoon really good going 2nd to end games. Unless you know the matchup for game 1.
For your first combo why just discard branded in red then grab albion with lost Use albion effect stp foolish counter trap and draw 1 Counter trap effect banish and get back in red in hand Like that you keep duster in red and do a +1 And you dont Die on nibiru Because the normal summon of cartesia is your 5th
BRANDED OPENING DOES NOT DISCARD FOR COST OBVIOUSLY, MISSPOKE.
Hello, I wanted to know if it’s completely legal to use Fusion deployment to summon Aluber? If so or not, why??
@@solaphoto7995 the monster summoned by Deployment must be specifically listed on a Fusion monster as one of its materials. So no.

I appreciate that you set up your camera to show the entire board and actually place the card piles in their correct areas.
For your first combo why just discard branded in red then grab albion with lost
Use albion effect stp foolish counter trap and draw 1
Counter trap effect banish and get back in red in hand
Like that you keep duster in red and do a +1
And you dont Die on nibiru
Because the normal summon of cartesia is your 5th
It dies to Nib anyway, Byst. Lubellion was the fifth.
Aluber -> Albion -> Lubellion -> Mirrorjade -> Byst. Lubellion
And they would just Nib on normal anyways
I love branded a ton. For the opening hand if you feel you don't need the merc for the negate what can do with Albion cl1 lost cl2 is grab merc make lubelion with merc albaz, cl 1 lubellion cl2 merc add Cartesia for a granguignol (using aluber) play with almost 0 neg with the mirrorjade, beast lubellion, red, banishment.

Just began playing the game. Went straight into despia. Sheesh it’s hard to learn but I’m having fun. Thanks for showing the combos.

5:30 - Grab Kitt off Lost. Pitch a branded in red for lubellion's activation, ss kitt to recover it and put duster back in the deck.

Merc and Lubellion go on the same chain. You cannot discard what you add off Merc as Lubellion is cost.
I am agree with adding the mercourier and using its effect (like Cartesia as in the video). But, as the other comment said, the added card cannot be used as cost for Lubellion. In that way, aluber is not banished and Branded in red can be used on the opponent turn.
I think the best add for the lost on the first test hand is fallen of Albaz for a discard and it makes your branded in red active
Glad CZcams recommended your channel to me. The algorithm got something right, for once. 😅
Really hoping to see your channel have more success.
Wouldn't it have been better to add the mercouier at cl2 then banish it for lubellion so discard harpies and add cartesia in the first combo
Let's you fuse cartesia and aluber for quertis or guingol, mill saronir , mill retribution and then have a branded in red target for next turn and return branded fusion
You can also save the cartesia fuse for their turn to add the second mercourier giving you an extra negate
Branded opening is discard for effect and not cost like you mentioned. 😊
It's was like the best card in the tearlaments build
Latley he has been a bit effy, even he didnt knew you can special summon from your hand using fusion deployment, it makes really hard keep up good plays when he keeps making really weird mistakes
Yeah, just mispoke. Obviously I know that it's not cost.
@@Atheistcruz I don't think I make "really weird mistakes", but glad you're enjoying the content. We're all here to learn, and that's the best way how to do that.
Thats perfect , only little little thing i would change in the first line is summon lubellion and (second one is a maybe) also mirrojade in defense
Hit just as I’m preparing for locals! Perfect!
at the start when you summoned mirrojade you need to use 1 albaz and 1 extra deck card
First combo, scratch merc with lost not cartesia. Then banish merc with Albion instead of aluber. Merc eff to then grab cartesia and can fuse him with aluber to get a despia in grave to have bir live
Yup wat I was thinking
goated video, love the updates and tips and tricks you provide, branded best deck

what outer sleeves did you use for your extra deck? it looks like KMC
Just made a video about all of my gear, check it out on the channel. Thank you!

He did discard, he discarded another branded opening for it
He did discard
Check again ^^
Didn't saw it. I thought you kept it on your hand and was a bit disappointed.
Dragoon is one of the best cards to play in branded
dumb question. Can you chain dimensional barrier to branded fusion or do you have to activate it prior to branded fusion?
I've been having success with gamma package along ash and nib. What you guys thoughts? Everyone main deck ash now and I threw in dolphin, that can summon by fusion deployment. Ash no longer issue for me.
love your channel bro i just started playing branded helps a lot
With your first hand I would have probably discarded harpies or red instead of the 2nd opening there cuz you can get the red back and going first you don’t really need the harpies, however I do understand why you would to keep it BUT your turn ends if your opp has an ash for fusion and if that’s the case you’ll have the 2nd opening for follow up whereas if you discard it, you’re now put in a top deck situation.
Would live to see a budget version of the deck and maybe a do a balling on a budget series. Really great video!
For a budget version just remove, the Cartesian and bestiale pack and put in patchwork package
With the first hand I would’ve made lubellion, use red to make mirrorjade, and resolve lubellion’s effect to make the dragoon >:).
Then set branded banishment since I don’t have the second red.
interesting deck profile and strategy. wow.
I have a question what about using the spell card dragons mirror in branded cause if you have you materials in Gy or field you can banish it and summon a dragon fusion and you have like 3 or 4 targets?
I’m just thinking about another way around ash
How do you revive mirrorjade at 10:00
You can’t discard ecclessia as discard for cost happens before chains resolve. But you went with harpies fd anyway. Js

That is what was shown to me at my locals. Is that accurate? If so the deck is more busted than people realize.
Ash Blossom isn't limited to the main phase, so that's incorrect. You may be thinking of Effect Veiler which would only be able to negate the Aluber.

Siding nowadays really depends on the player who's making the first turn/move. And obviously on the actual meta^^

watch his vid yesterday or 2 days ago
That's a fake mat, right?
Jst watch dark paladin he's better with this deck
Branded opening does not discard for cost.
Nobody thought that.
Could u maybe show a few dragoon lines in the next one 🫡
I don't think going first board with Dragoon is optional, compare to mirrorjade. Dragoon really good going 2nd to end games. Unless you know the matchup for game 1.
