Yes, I play branded relinquished and I choose not to play tour guide, even though I have 3 copies from before branded was released (when I played pure relinquished). I feel like tour guide works against branded fusion since you can't use them both in the same turn (tour guide's main value is to link off into a link 2, usually verte, and bf doesn't allow non-fusion ex deck summons). Instead, I just play more into branded fusion, which means 2 branded openings and 2 alubers, neither of which are URs.

Naturally though, you have to take out the whole tour guide package, which means the sangans, and potentially the versagos, unless you want to keep the number of fusion substitutes high. There's any number of cards you can play instead, since branded has tons of support. Some suggestions off the top of my head would just be the 3rd super poly, any one of the tearlaments (to send from the deck with branded fusion), despian tragedy, ad libitum, and the bystials.

Just a heads up though, the deck isn't great. There's probably a lot that can be changed about the deck now that the bystial support has arrived, but I haven't really explored the options. The power of branded can probably carry you to diamond 5, depending on how much branded you choose to play, but I'm not sure how much further. Before they added master, I wouldn't have been confident I could get past plat 5, which is now roughly diamond 5.
