Notes & Combos

With the new support and skill Predaplant is more complex than ever!!!

Based on my experience, I will break down the strengths and weaknesses of the new version:

Going first:

You don't really have any problems with consistency, because you have a bunch of starters, each with different lines that end you on similar or identical boards.

Your starters include: Ophrys Scorpio, Triantis, Bufolicula, Byblisp and Chlamydosundew

The goal going first is to set up a board with Dragostapelia, 2 other Fusions to go into Starving Venom Predapower Fusion Dragon using Predaprime Fusion, and a set Predaplanning or other equivalent boards. (you can also go into Ensemblue Robin; however, I didn't find it all that helpful)

The best part about this endboard is that it is layered and kind of hard to break and OTK you in one turn, however your most powerful interruption (Predapower) is kind of resource-intensive, because while it sounds good in theory, it never actually gets to tribute and negate an opponent's card twice after being revived by its own effect. In comparison Predaplaning in conjunction with Dragostapelia is way stronger and easier to set up.

A big problem with its going first is that it can be easily disrupted to make weaker (Droll) or no boards (Veiler, if you have no extenders) and its inability to easily counter Nibiru

Going second:

This is where the deck shines!

A free Dragostapelia and Predaprime Fusion can break entire boards, if you play your cards right, and then you can go in for lethal with a 10.000+ ATK Triphyoverutum

This can go wrong if your opponent has any relevant techs so playing backrow removal is strongly advised

Match-ups:

Shinobird 9/10 (kind of surprising)

Blue-eyes 💀/10 (Going first is rough)

Dragons 8/10 (depends on backrow, otherwise very good)

Swordsoul 10/10 (going first, Predaplaning is basically an FTK)

Vaylantz ?/10 (only played going 1st against it but it should be pretty good against it)

Closing Thoughts:

Did I just seriously waste my time writing this, even though probably nobody is going to read it, and made this even though I struggled playing the deck the whole time, feeling like a fraud, because every effect I activated and resolved felt like a misplay and...

...oh yeah, this deck is really good and stuff, probably need to rework the decklist though (we don't talk about Proxy F Magician).
