Notes & Combos

Got DLVMAX with this NOT live at twitch.tv/unnicknamed

Unc's still got it. Took me exactly 47 wins from DLV5. Deranked from 16 once and lost 3 DLVMAx rankups. Didn't get FTK'd.

Can you believe it's once again one of the worst metas of DL ever? The power of stun and searchable Super Poly barely hold on at this point. Discord only worked in 1 game. Droll did the stunning otherwise.

3 Droplet is mandatory. 3 Droll as the floodgate of the format. 3 Discord because while Shadow Imprisoning Mirror beats both Resonator and D Hero (and negates Cross Keeper in GY), Discord can beat both Resonator and Stardust (though Stardust can search the out if they run it with the Skill). 2 DD Crow because I'm out of space for third.

I think it is entirely reasonable to max on both Liquid and Cross Keeper and try to draw into your 8 remaining tech options. I've found Droplet, Droll and DD Crow to be the best currently and you don't really need Sphere for going second: Stardust still beats you through it and this Deck can still beat through others with certain hands.

Unfortunately D Hero outclasses this Deck in a lot of ways. DPE and Dreadmaster are better offensively and defensively, respectively, than ADT. D Hero ends on an in-archetype floodgate Plasma, while E Hero has nothing of the sort. D Hero's Skill does more stuff if it goes second, while E Hero's doesn't. Both Decks focus on drawing into techs but D Hero can easily deck itself out by drawing so many. Finally D Hero also plays Stratos, Liquid and Sphere Mode! E Hero's only upsides are the ever-threatening Super Poly (and its synergy with Stratos), and Rainbow Neos' mass shuffle (which plays around the D Hero endboard, for one).
