Let’s Build Description:

Closing out April, I decided to produce a Let’s Build video on an archetype I had yet to cover on my channel or even discuss in an article! This content is longform, as it includes walking through each card in a deckbuild in detail for a certain theme, explaining their purpose along the way, then resulting in a fully built strategy showcased in a handful of replays. As this is different than most of my videos, please let me know if you’d like to see more of these ‘Let’s Build!’ videos, and if you would, which archetype(s) would you like to see featured.

If you’re not interested in my reasoning for specific cards or engines, feel free to skip to the test duels at the end – these model a similar approach to most of my other profiles.

Note: As of recording, some TCG names were not fully confirmed, so I was using the previous YGOrg translated names.
