Also U.A. vs Runick Spright at Plat range.
I do not have the gems for Diamond because I used them all on Spright thinking that Tear would be another month away, whoops.

One thing I wanted to showcase is that people are failing to understand that this is a format where your opponent is playing a reciprocal that grass is greener which opens all sorts of nonsense.

So today I learn Tearlament really goes well with U.A. but I need so many URs for the deck is insane, essentially.

Run 1 Albaz
Run a few Tears.
Run a few Shaddolls
Make a Winda on your opponent's turn.
Make a Lubellion
Make Guilti Gearfried with U.A. and Reinoheart.

But everything is so expensive.
I can make U.A. into Branded Tear with just 4 cards.
This is so stupid, I love this format.

I... I beat tear with only a structure deck. It took me 20 loses until I finally beat it but I beat it nonetheless.

Hiding behind a proxy account, coward.
You will live like a coward and you will die like a coward

Edit: Sorry I thought you mean the starting deck that sucks, if you mean the started decks like Dark Magician or Salamangreat, that's cool.

A thousand apologies sir. Master duel is one hell of a drug.

Always fun beating meta with a rogue or even pet deck, one of these days I'll beat Tear with Dream Mirror.

That's the spirit.
Although I hate being a meta sheep but Tearlaments is really fun.
The issue is that much like IRL, Konami made the piece and support way too expensive but you can practically run Lubellion in any deck now and get all sorts of crazy monsters.

If you run the Ishizu cards and the cheap Tearlament cards and just a few monsters like King of The Swamp, you can summon invoked Caligula or Winda during your opponents turn as well, you do not need to commit to the mirror 100%.

Ishizu Tearlements is an absolute blast, agreed, plus when you know how to correctly pilot it you can usually run circles around someone who plays it but doesn't have the best idea on it. I'd run Lubellion but honestly I don't have the cards and I'm fine with what I have now.

I run some Shaddoll cards (and by that I mean Squamata and Beast) to make Winda personally, though I'll add in King of the Swamp for some other fusions down the line.

U.A. adds a layer to hilarity because I can bait the Abyss Dweller and the Mudora with U.A. Penalty Box and so far it has not failed and it is so amusing that people do not know it banishes for cost.

I am currently against a guy who is pulling the wiki on U.A. because he does not know Mighty Slugger prevents all other card effects and it is the most comical WTF moment I have seen.

Two Tearlament games at Plat range beat by U.A. in a row.
Fantastic. This is going to be a lovely format.

I'll have to give U.A. a try sometime, I like their tagout system (partially why I like Kozmo) and they look pretty fun, how expensive are they?

Cheap, the only UR are Player Manager and Playmaker. Playmaker is optional and Player Manager is run at two.

Just 3 pieces of advice: U.A. always loses to itself similar to monarch, Adventure is great for U.A. it is a Ash magnet and never run U.A. at 40 cards regardless of what people say.

Sadly I don't have the Adventure engine but with Enchantress limited I should only need like 4(?) cards so not that bad, gonna look into it.

Personally I don't see the problem with this format. I beat Tears with Dragunity and let them do all the work I have to do for me and them milling me is just fuel for Dragunity Arma to keep popping out every turn and if I have the winged-beast Dragunity just start my plays w/o Dragon Ravine. I even mentioned Zombies as an option since Zombie World would just stop them from being able to fuse or plants which both types like to be in the graveyard so mills just help them. Then U.A.'s which have maybe one or two cards that benefit off mills yet you are doing just fine fighting them. OP, you literally said that Tear/Ishizu are basically That Grass is Greener but, for both players. But, it seems people would rather complain about the format WE KNEW was coming instead of just finding a way to fight it.

Agreed.

However you can beat Tearlament with just whatever now because a lot of people do not know how to play the deck, we are hours before people learn the deck and then the true reign of tear will begin which...is not that bad really.

Tear is like Blackwings, an archetype ahead of its time and you will see several new cards for previous archetypes that will take inspiration from it, the whole point of Tearlament is to be an archetype that can play around several negates and I hope that is how new cards will be moving forward so the era of Adamancipator and Spyral comes to an end.

That said, Tearlament is still very vulnerable to some floodgates and tech cards. I for one I rather play around their strength and just let them mill. At best they can shuffle 10 of your cards if they hit two of the Ishizu cards and Exchange of the Spirit which is incredibly lucky.

So I would take the opportunity to play infernoids, cyberdarks and witchcrafter. Bystials are what really will break the deck but fortunately U.A. does not care.
