Notes & Combos

Finally, for the first time. After 125 days conecutive days log in, Im reach M1. It's gonna long, you do need to read until finish. The last time I played with serious intention was back in 2010. 15 years appart im back with that spirit lol.

The first time i played this game, i dunno about crafting, masterduelmeta, etc. Just built my favorite deck, Gladiator Beast. Then i realize, this deck will never survive in this format (Maliss). Then I built draco, anti meta, resonator and my first expensive decks, Tenpai - Striker. I need dismantle a lot of UR card that i had to built that deck (it sacrafice my draco anti meta). But that deck never reach D2, due to droll, ash and the combo thats very linear. Then I found that Gem-Knight maybe the answer that I need.

Before I continued my story, i would like to thanks some of youtuber such as Ace Yugioh, Nova Bushido, Hico MasterDuel, LightDragon - Duel enjoyer. Honorbale mention to gadget bug, he shows me what is grit means. Also from this community like Bona, kixx, Gowtu99. All of them inspired me to built this deck.

I found in my grinding, that Nibiru and change of heart is game changer. 2 copies red reebot, somehow give me big advantage. Hardest opponent? Labyrinth and orcust. Labyrinth is slightly harder, i never won against that deck, unless i have red reeboot. Easiest opponent? Ironically is Maliss. The deck that frustated me using tenpai - striker.

When i reach M2, i had 6 opportunities to M1, but i always lost. It so frustating, and then i lost again orcust, so i need 3 winning a row. I almost give up, i thought M1 is only for the chosen one. Lol. Then i met 3 Maliss a row, my hand is prety decent. Then M1 is achived.

It's long journey, i never thought that i will reach this level. I also realized if you want to achive M1, not only you understand your deck but also your opponent deck. So, you can figure out when is the best time to used your hand trap.

I think this is the right time to rest. The endorphins are still flowing in my body. Why? simple, because im F2P player who played this game for 4 montsh straight!
