What were some key things that made you feel to have this card? In the tournament, can you give an example?ĭerick: The key things I found with Rollock are: I’ve been seeing this Cray Elemental card in multiple deck lists. Jaime: I also see that you’ve included 4 copies of Rollock. Heal Guardians in this meta (and potentially forever) are necessary to cope with any aggressive plays your opponent decides to play on you. Alice is your attack extender and with the combination of Nightmare Doll, Ginny and Nightmare Doll, Leslie, you can launch 2 to 3 attacks per counter blast you have open. You always want to be on Carroll as you then have the option at the end of turn, based on your hand, can ride down to Grade 2 to defend against your opponent’s turn. Were those cards/ratios key for specific plays? How did it work out for you?įour Carroll and four Alice is a must as it is the core of the deck. I see that you’re playing a good amount of G3s (Alice, Carroll, etc.), as well as the G3 Heal Guardians. Jaime: Very well thought out and tested too! Awesome, let’s dive into your deck list. With her effect, you can ride down to Grade 2 and have a pseudo-perfect guard to guard against your opponent’s turn.Ĭoncluding from this, we determined that this Nightmare Doll list was the best list and best contender to the meta which had the highest win rate in our testing and across the board, there was no deck that could counter what this deck could do. This allowed the deck to have access to eight perfect guards at any point in the game due to the interaction in Nightmare Doll, Carroll. I saw a few lists that previously topped Bushiroad Spring Fest Online so I decided to give it a try.Ī great friend of mine, Kevin Cho, also decided to test it out and collectively, we came up with a Nightmare Doll list that had a defensive component in Earth Elemental, Rollock. In doing so, exploring the avenues of Nightmare Doll was next. With the introduction to heal guardians, it was hard for Harri to deny at zero damage and expect to come out on top with the aggressive nature of the meta. 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.
