I just like the deck. It's a midrange-ish deck that tries to win by turn 5 latest. No otk potential to blowout around that turn unfortunately but the Odion stuff helped back that up by giving me ANOTHER 3k body to swipe with every turn.
What were some tech choices you made? Would you make any changes to the list moving forward?
Odion was a last-minute inclusion because I saw the engine was broken. Still is. Has been nerfed to 2p though so I can't complain too much.
Run more non-engine. And normal monsters. Normal monsters are broken.
How did your deck handle the other pilots? Any notable moments?
They handled everything about as well as I expected. 2-1 every single duel. Going 1st a lot helped a ton.
My duel vs LilyPod was almost down the gutter because DUELINGBOOK DISCONNECTED ME FOR NO FRIGGING REASON. I am STILL mad about that. Thankfully Lily just handed me the slip so it wasn't a deciding factor.
Me and Cino waited 2 weeks to duel lmao. I wonder if that can be pushed...
What was the weirdest duel you've ever been part of?
There's two. One where I played vs Impy on stun and just...locked him out of the game with floods. Another where I played photon and me and my opponent kept drawing blanks after an equalizer. Which was pretty funny.

Blue-Eyes, it can synchro, xyz, and fusion summon, good recycling with the chaos part of it

Tech choices I don't remember, for changes I'll probably add another Seyfert because its versatility is really strong, it can add things back to hand from GY

With the Blue Eyes nerfs and Maze coming out, I expected that I would be getting killed more slowly than in the previous format. I also guessed everyone and their mother would be on the Odion cards can nobody is capable of seeing a new decent engine without putting it into everything (I'm guilty of that), so I built this pile as a result.
The combination of the powerful field spells led me to pretty flexible plays that could either give me interruption in the form of the Odion stuff or Dracos for grind and removal, all while I tried to dig for Nemleria cards to finish the game off.
I could talk all day about the plays this deck makes but it will be enough to say that it draws a lot, has a lot of (a bit slow) removal and puts big dudes on board. Also quite a bit of negating cards on field specifically.

There's a lot of slop I'd cut, the old apophis being the first. I pretty much consider my list for the ongoing YTC as a refined version of it, just with 2 less points because of the Odion tax. Those points were used for PoG and PoP so I ain't losing much, given both were dubious tech cards.
Other than that, Sangan and Pathfinder were the biggest techs, which weren't that bad but ended up being cut for more unorthodox normal summons in newer iterations.

Other than the obligatory drop due to personal reasons against me, I felt like a lot of the duels I lost were due to skill issue. That both tells me that the deck might be pretty good in general and that I need more practice, which is a bit hard because of my schedule so I'm using YTCs for that. True Dracos are hard, man.
When it came to Odion on Odion action, I think the Draco cards worked pretty well, being both able to force it out and get advantage in the event such a forcing is successful.
What was the weirdest duel you've ever been part of?
Tough question. I guess I'd give it to one tag duel I had in Trinity were Flopish was my partner. We made a deck focused on Air Neos and tried pulling the combo off the whole tournament, and then, when we finally did it, I realized I forgot to put Air Neos in the deck (or Duelingbook bugged it out, idk). Pretty embarassing.

i choose Amazement Traptrix Temple Tenpai cause its chock-full of 1 card combos all the different engines give you which pair well with generically good trap cards which there is an abundance of legal right now. My deck can use tenpai cards to make AFD to shuffle between field spells, which is kind of the only cool play it can make :v
What were some tech choices you made? Would you make any changes to the list moving forward?
i don't rly do tech choices, i just played the best generic cards available in the format, i wouldn't change my deck at all.
How did your deck handle the other pilots? Any notable moments?
my deck was just a solid generic deck so it handled most decks pretty well, there weren't any rly bad or rly good matchups. most notable moment was when i won against folo 2-1 and they said "yay, i wont 1 game at least!", that was rly funny and folo is my goat.
What was the weirdest duel you've ever been part of?
every duel is weird when you are a freak like me....
