It's not limited to these two either, as several Tier 2/3 to rogue decks heavily relied on DPE for their success just to "level" the playing field. Be it the coveted DPE, or the promising Mirrorjade, the Iceblade Dragon. Both Phantom Knight and Tri-Brigade were competitive TIer 2 strategies that really enjoyed the presence of Verte Anaconda. While others were rejoicing at the death of Verte, several people expressed their outrage as the glue that tied their deck together has suddenly met its fate. "How am I supposed to summon DPE/Mirrorjade now?!" "You're joking, right? Really, less than a week before Nationals?!" The Artifacts could've also taken the banhammer. They've been dominating for 3 months straight, after all. Last but not the least, both the Adventurer and Prank-Kid portion of that deck were bigger issues to address. Branded Despia easily finessed through these Adventurer Enforcer piles like nobody's business, not really minding the quick effect pop at all. It's true that DPE was a threat, but players were used to it by now. Prank-Kids had 18/32 spots at YCS Charlotte, but their numbers took a hit when YCS Bogota and YCS Guadalajara were held.Īdditionally, Artifact Scythe usage was low at the time, so Scythe locking wasn't too big on people's radars. What about the other decks at the time? We have Adventurer DPE Prank-Kids which had steady usage even after Despia stole its thunder in May. Did you notice something about it? It was not only getting high usage to push for Tier 1 status, and it didn't even use Verte! The locks that Branded Fusion have led to that, and duelists would rather use raw Polymerization. It's key to remember that post-SDAZ, the best deck of the format was Branded Despia. Destiny HERO - Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer (DPE for short) was still relatively new to the scene and they wouldn't want to kill their best money maker, no? However, many people including me were expecting it to survive given the TCG meta. Verte's fate as banlist season hit was uncertain. "Nice prank, how about you show us the real banlist?" "What? Why did this happen? This has to be a troll list." As a disclaimer, this article is a little bit more subjective than what I usually write.
