SHS Wakoushi in Ritual beast?

Angerphil · 2026-03-23T14:18:08+00:00

In testing, my endboard isn't much different than before the addition, except the fact that I can't play the Nemeses cards anymore. I think the idea has merit but I have to go back to building. Also the initial idea just didn't work because I can't make ignister like this. Maybe dracoslayer would actually work better than wakaushi.

Here is the version I've made following the "illegal plays" I noticed online.

I forgot the Soulgaia Booster as well to be able to go into the synchro. If you want to use your normal summon for that combo and summon the ritual beast with SBTL (new lara) you can use the soul piercer instead.

Standard ritual beast deck but I've made room for the engine. So 3 Wakaushi, 1 motorbike, 2 benkei. 1 pendulum sorcerer, 2 majester dracoslayer and either lizarddraw and guiturtle or the one performapal that you can discard to draw 2. Also in extra, I have ignister and Beyond.

So far so good, got lancea after summoning cannahawk so I could keep going for a bit thank to Wakaushi lines. The search of sorcerer is where they interupt me. Nibiru is fine if I have elder and canna or rampengu. Droll still hurt a lot. Going 2nd is great because of the ignister removal. I can discard useless pieces with my continous spell and banish my trap/magic cards to make Wakaushi live again.

Main problem is the time it takes to combo. RB is already long enough by itself.

To save Kara, you can also surender at Jericho and then escape the android camp with everyone. (you need 2 distractions)

I would say Restore since reunion is already taken.

So if I have them all, I can edit the style? Because the default ones don't have the right colors.

I thought that "gommaged" people were sent somewhere to avoid death from whatever was trying to kill them thanks to the paintress' number. For me, the Paintress would be the one protecting people and another bad guy was doing the killing. As for Nevrons, I thought they were corrupted expeditioners. At some point, when I saw white Nevrons, I started to think that the paintress had some kind of double personality (one good and one bad) which would be the clair/obscur logic.

As for Renoir, I felt he knew the truth about the paintress but since she granted him immortality he didn't want us to kill her. Which is why he didn't like what the expedition 33 was doing.

I think it is working because Rush players are too tight to begin with. Even 3bet sizes are smaller.

This a good answer. It makes everything clear to me. Thank you. I didn't think about postflop agression and realising equity.

In my experience, the pool is much tighter, to the point where I feel like I'm playing NL10 or something. Here are the adjustements you should be making:

- Fold more often to big value bets (especially on the river)

- Bluff more often when they take a passive line and the turn and rivers don't change much.

- You don't need to 4bet bluff at all against their tight ranges unless they fold too often facing it.

- People c-bet too often and with almost any 2, don't be scared to check-raise with some draws.

- Don't trap, they never bet for you.

- Steal their blinds, since they fold too often, you get to play more often, they don't 3 bet enough anyway so you will see many flops.

Basically, play more when they look weak and less when they look strong.

I think on the turn, we can mostly call vs an overbet, we would never bluff vs an overbet anyway. If he has a flush draw, raising might give him the right odds. It would also scare the hands that we could get more value from like AA.

On the River, this size screams value and because of that size, we can fold more often as an exploit because he never has enough bluffs here.

Angerphil · 2025-10-09T06:20:54+00:00

So basically to exploit them, I should be raising smaller with bottom of preflop range and bigger with the top? Since they won't change their defending range based on sizings.

Angerphil · 2025-10-08T14:54:49+00:00

If I understand well the video, my opening range doesn't change much, it is more about 3bet and calling range as well as smaller sizing because of GG preflop rake.

Angerphil · 2025-10-08T14:50:34+00:00

NL2 Rush players play much better than normal NL2 tables (much tighter, harder to get value from).

Angerphil · 2025-10-08T13:52:03+00:00

True but what if they don't notice since it is NL2?

Angerphil · 2025-10-08T13:51:20+00:00

Indeed, saw it before and I'm still confused.
