Master Duel Fusion Cup: DLV Max Climb with Grass Branded

DC event but for Fusions, and the banlist meant I got to have fun playing the classic 60-count Branded pile again, but with a twist as I get to play the new cards minus the Synchros. The deck is back to focusing on resolving Branded Fusion, but honestly a lot of the new cards makes it so that it's not as big a chokepoint as before and one of the games I was able to set up a board without ever bringing it into rotation. My two major gripes about the event were the non-Fusion decks that got to play like Odion and Burn (let's be real Odion is not a Fusion deck with their boss monster being a purple Link 2) and Heroes being absurdly pushed with all of their non-Fusion-related Link monsters being legal for some reason (while Branded's Synchros are banned); obnoxious endboards with even more obnoxious combos that actually take forever. Aside from those the event was largely pretty fun and the climb was pretty smooth. Tried swapping out Crown for Droll at the very end due to some match-ups but it ultimately didn't make a difference so the decklist might as well have 2 Crown instead of Droll. 0:00 Going 2nd vs. Millennium 1:50 Setup without Branded Fusion 4:13 Going 2nd vs. FS Memento 8:17 Going 2nd Branded mirror 10:38 Vs.
