Just about made it again this season. Apologies for the short post here, but I need to finish Stage 1 of the Duelist Cup and uhhh try to finish top 10k again in Stage 2 in a couple of days.

Also, sorry for no new replays. Short on time, Duelist Cup imposes another dumb sweaty deadline on top of that, and MOREOVER, MacOS Tahoe has absolutely nuked performance all around, including in both Windows emulation and OBS recording. I don't think it'll be possible to record anything beyond a minute until they fix it.

Meta is bad, Maliss is tiresome. Y'all know the drill. I'm just waiting for Galatea-i.

Only change from last month: 3x Veiler out to make room for 2 more Purulias and 1 Meowls.

• Played into TTT too many times with Veiler; need a real turn-ender to justify the risk, so Mulcharmies, Nib, Droll all fine. Ash sucks but I still need it against Maxx and friends anyway since my deck is so fragile.
• 3x Purulia feels better now due to the new Maliss plays and Ryzeal being more prevalent than last month for some reason.
• 1x Meowls isn't really that good, but I struggled to find another high-impact handtrap against the top meta. I mean, Meowls is pretty terrible into Ryzeal too, but I can't play Gamma because of the brick, and not too sure about 2nd Belle over a potent draw card.

If anyone has a better read of the meta and can recommend different non-engine, please do not hesitate to let me know!
