Notes & Combos
I don't know why I subjected myself to this but wanted to try out tech. So how'd it go:
Daruma performed alright. It won't save you going second against most full boards but it still does the job of buying time or being a safety net.
Droplet is just generally good in Ninjas imo. It worked pretty well against Ryzeal. You won't break a Maliss board but its fine to set. I considered Droll over it if you keep running into Ryzeal or Striker Tenpai.
Lancea to not instantly perish to Maliss.
Cherries is the weird one. Against Maliss it underperformed. It DOES slow them down significantly, but you still have a lot to chew through and they have both March Hare and Crypter to recycle it eventually. I rarely drew it against the other targets but hypothetically it should be a good ambush against Bident. Against Ryzeal it did well. They have no way to Recycle the Detonator and it makes the board much more manageable - though not an instant win (Still cross, Plasma Hole etc) I had Sequence in there for a bit but swapped it out. Most FS I ran into was Ryzeal FS. Keep in mind you need to control less monsters than your opponent - but its perfect to chain to Duplication and you can keep their monster count up with Jioh'd face downs.
I felt like 1x Saizo came up a fair bit, so I'd consider putting it back to 2. Ty-Phon is also actually really good in this deck and I found myself wanting another one sometimes. Comparatively, Borrel OTK happened maybe once. Zeus was intended for XYZ stolen with Tactics but it nearly never came up. You could cut it for targets or the extra Saizo probably.
