    *WRITTEN REPORT*
    Feel free to check out my written report with pictures on Twitter (link video description).
    Round 1: *Rescue-Ace* (2-0)
    Round 2: *Chimera Branded* (Round 2 feature match, link in the video description) (2-0)
    Round 3: *Floowandereeze* (that other tribute deck... LOOL) (2-1)
    - G1: He starts and combo.
    - G2: I start and he has no answer for Majesty's Fiend.
    - G3: He bricks and has no answer for Majesty's Fiend. =D
    Round 4: *Purrely* (2-1)
    - G1: I go 2nd, and he draws 6 (!!!) with FULLY loaded Ex-Noir. Stormforth in Vanity's Fiend locks this up, even though he's like +10 over me..! =D
    - G2: He combo's, but I brick.
    - G3: I control with Fiends and Domain, he can't answer Domain lock because Book of Eclipse doesn't out it..! =D
    Round 5: *Unchained* (2-1) | 5-0 overall!!!
    Round 6: *SHS FTK* (0-2)
    - G1: I lose another diceroll... He FTK's
    - G2: I misplay and lose. Got myself some food and drinks, that gave me a boost (mentally...)
    Round 7: *Branded Chimera* (2-0)
    Round 8: *Unchained* (2-0)
    Round 9: *Branded Chimera* (he ended up 1st after swiss) (0-2)
    - G1: I open good, but I lost diceroll (LOOOOL...) He bodies me with Dragoon and more fusions.
    - G2: I brick... He opened 2 Imperm and Duster later tho...
    Round 10: *Dragon Link* (1-2)
    - G1: Domain Lock
    - G2: Borrelend and Savage, which I can easily out, BUT he Drolls...
    - G3: I open OK, but he had ASH on tenacity... I didn't open any Fenrir/Anchamoufrite/Vassals, so I wasn't able to put up Domain Lock. He OTK's because we were close to time.
    Very happy with the result overall. I 'only' won 3 dicerolls (lost 7), BUT this format (until AGOV) feels really fair and that gives DOMAIN MONARCHS a fair chance if going 2nd (Stormforth bodies so many bossmonsters..!)
    I got Impermed, Ash'd, Drolled, Booked etc. so many times, but decks in this format can hardly out Fiend + Domain lock, or even 1 fiend..!
    THANK YOU ALL FOR THE MASSIVE SUPPORT. I WAS OVERWHELMED..!
    Thank you to everyone who came up for a pic etc. Always appreciated! =D

    Hey Lithium, thanks for sharing this awesome list! At 5:23 you talk about how Stormforth was used to break boards, namely against Purrely. If your opponent drew 6 cards during the Standby Phase , that means they Purreleaped probably into Expurrely Noir. How did you remove the Expurrely Noir before locking down with Vanity's Fiend and Domain? Was it just below 5 materials and Stormforth could finally tribute it away for Vanity's Fiend? Thanks again!

    • @Lithium2300

    first thing.....congratulations for the top.
    If I may I would like to ask you some questions (I also play monarch and I'm curious XD).
    - why don't you play side dark ruler no more?
    -why haven't you played Mithra the Thunder Vassal?
    - why don't you play Time-Tearing Morganite?

    • @thecookies6109
      @thecookies6109 Před 10 měsíci

      Time-Tearing morganite (while good can also be a terrible card) you have to wait a full turn to draw sometimes it is sadly too slow and drawing more than 1 is a death sentence. (squire was most likely choosen over mithra cause it can return monarch/spells and traps and domain is main win con). Dark ruler may not have been sided cause you main deck majesty's fiend meaning most of the time you drop a kash then summon majesty to stop all monster effects and hopefully drop a domain of the true monarchs and stomp over anything bigger than 2400. (Dark ruler can do nothing by itself unless you can out the board with attacks or other removal.) If you want to play time-tearing you would have to justify running two or three triple tactics thruster and 1 morganite.

  • @alucardygo4239
    @alucardygo4239 Před 10 měsíci

    This is the type of deck that always catches you off guard at a big tournament. You really can come up against anything 😂 To play true rogue decks like this you have to know the format. Monarchs have the advantage of not needing an extra deck so that helps too as they lock out the opponents extra.

    Very interesting very similar to the version I've been playing at regionals except i havent bothered to splash for the fenrirs. Very old school build of monarchs but i agree they have a weirdly good meta match up atm with most decks making boards without negates and only a very big monsters stormforth is suddenly very good.
    Whats the opinion on time tearing morganite ? It turns off the hand traps and ehther importantly but does help you play through hand traps on the squires and the extra draws help in reduced game states or allow you to finish before they can draw outs to a fiend. I've been playing around with both and unsure which is better.

Planet just adds consistency to Fenrir and riseheart is another searchable free special summon as tribute fodder if needed. Feel like that could be more relevant than the small boys

      @@nickpayne22098 from watching the feature and according to his explanations, getting the Fiends on board is his main priority. I don't know how often an Edea recycle would come up for him, but I'd assume consistently getting his win conditions on board and dodging hand traps is more important than getting Pantheism back a turn later.

    Do you recommend the same build for MasterDuel as well or only the TCG format?
    Love Monarch but sometimes I just giga brick :(

      MD is different because the end boards there from decks a MUCH bigger than our current tcg format… I wouldn’t change that much tho

    Glad this wasn't a top deck. Man's said "I'm just here to not let you play"

    im 6 days late so idk if youll see this but one of the kashtiras are 2800/1000 so it works with tenacity and its searchable, also you can cut the babys for it. great card, also searches the trap.

    What card can I replace Kashtira fenrir ?(expect one Unicorn)
    Because I’m playing the OCG format Fenrir is banned and Unicorn is limited to 1

    Can I change the 3 Kashtira Fenrir for something else if I don't have them?
