What made you choose your deck? What are some plays your deck can make?
Labrynth is a bit of a pet deck for me since I've spent a long time playtesting and building it in Trinity. I felt I had to actually play it before it got hit because of other Fiend decks, so I ran it this YTC. I felt this build was super optimal and made good use of every card in it.
There are a lot of cards I want to send to the GY in this deck, so it has plenty of ways to do that. The furnitures are good with all that discard fodder as well. Welcome Labrynth along with the extra names in the Main Deck helps with long games. Yama into Shyama is a good late-game play, since there are dead Welcome Labrynths that you can pop to get advantage.
What were some tech choices you made? Would you make any changes to the list moving forward?
I played Diabellestarr since all 3 cards are good to draw in this. Snake-Eye is removal, Wanted draws and gets to Diabellestarr, and Diabellestarr is easy to summon on both turns thanks to furniture and discard fodder. I swapped out Blind Obliteration for Overroot because I was scared of Fire King, but that didn't come up much. I also swapped the 4th Labrynth trap from Barrage to a 2nd Welcome because it got hit with Cosmic 1 time in testing. I liked having 2 Welcomes.
I might play Stormforth because of Shyama. Diabellestarr is getting hit, so that will have to be replaced with something else. Same with Soul Resonator.
How did your deck handle the other pilots? Any notable moments?
Games took forever, but that's to be expected. Long games is why I don't play this deck, since I can't sit down and play for hours. Fire King was very difficult, and basically down to luck.
It was funny that Krasher played me twice in the tournament and did not draw a way to get the Ancient Warriors engine in 4 total games. I also thought NobodyTCG's spellcaster deck was cool.
What is your favorite Transformer? (if you don't have one, what other TCGs/games do you play?)
Soundwave and Shockwave (I can fix them). Starscream is a walking L though.
None.

What made you choose your deck? What are some plays your deck can make?
I wanted a deck that synergized around "send a bunch of cards to the GY". The best starter most of the time is making Lavalval Chain and sending Defense of Changban to the GY, you you'd be able to plus if the opponent attacked into the vulnerable Lavalval Chain.
What were some tech choices you made? Would you make any changes to the list moving forward?
I ran a small Phantom Knight engine with Boots and the mantrap. With this, Armageddon Knight was either a HERO starter or a Rank 4. I'd probably run less of the worse Ancient Warriors. The only thing they did all tournament was brick.
How did your deck handle the other pilots? Any notable moments?
It's a deck that snowballs really fast but if stopped it has a lot of problems getting back into the game, so most games were heavily one sided. My favorite play of the tournament was round 1 when I won the match by burning my opponent with Destiny HERO Celestial.
What is your favorite Transformer? (if you don't have one, what other TCGs/games do you play?)
IDK any of the transformers, I was too busy simping for Megan Fox during the films.
For TCGs, I currently only play MtG and Yu-Gi-Oh.

more dragons less no dragons
How did your deck handle the other pilots? Any notable moments?

I LOVE THE OPTIMUM PRIDE

What made you choose your deck? What are some plays your deck can make?
I played ancient warriors because i felt that it got a great boost in consistency with the snake eyes stuff and i like the Dynasty warriors games
What were some tech choices you made? Would you make any changes to the list moving forward?
I just included the snake eyes because it allowed face up spells as fodder for the costs of the ancient warriors cards or just have a secondary gameplay to do with. Well i not really a good deck builder so i don’t have much idea on how to change things
How did your deck handle the other pilots? Any notable moments?
Well if this deck is given a turns or 2 with sun mou and an extra card to do things, it can snowball into a win. I remember all the times I managed a win by drawing a Sun Mou with an extra card left and it felt pretty nice.
What is your favorite Transformer?
Well i have 2 favorites, number 1 Bumblebee and number 2 Arcee
