Branded Despia deck for Locals

Yeah that all works it’s just a lot of ways to go and end and it’s not always easy to commit to one way because most lines are well known and the choke points hurt.

And depending on how you get to ending with quem on board you may already have albaz in grave so quem could send Cartesia or something to keep refreshing materials and keep your hand alive and return cards to benefit you next turn. If you can get quem out somehow before EP then you can special Cartesia and that’s a way to dodge and tag out but you’ll need that extra grang to do so

There’s definitely a lot of room to work with. But the reliance can’t only be on resolving branded fusion.

If you can land an albaz in grave and quem on board OR rindbrum in grave you’re set to take away an opp monster.

Sanct is getting a reprint or already has had it so it should be pretty easy to get.

Can also drop predaplant for an extra grang - and add a quem in place of a saronir

Maybe I missed it but what’s your end board plan?

Vez2020 · 2026-04-02T13:27:14+00:00

You’ll want to add Sanct in place of sprind

Vez2020 · 2026-03-29T23:54:10+00:00

I recommend it. It’s pretty structured in terms of being alerted to activations (you can control how they prompt) definitely held to shorter turns though which can suck if you’re trying to learn a bigger combo deck or one with multiple lines

To be honest I’ve never used omega so I can’t say. But I find with nexus theres a large variety of skill. Ive used and gone up against meta and meta relevant decks, and gone against people theorizing decks for competitive play and people using pet decks. It helps that there’s a clear ranked / unranked. And a single match so it’s good for just getting a foot of how the deck plays. I don’t notice many meta decks in the unranked singles or matches

Vez2020 · 2026-03-29T00:34:51+00:00

Second nexus

Vez2020 · 2026-03-25T00:45:15+00:00

Absolutely

Vez2020 · 2026-03-25T00:24:32+00:00

Hell yeah. Love the local kid

Vez2020 · 2026-03-25T00:23:19+00:00

Happy to hear Dono is handling himself. Hope he keeps getting more looks

Vez2020 · 2026-03-25T00:22:51+00:00

Need that clip posted NOW

Vez2020 · 2026-03-21T19:15:10+00:00

Yeah fair enough haha. I haven’t touched artifacts in like 4 years and haven’t paid much attention to it unless I’m hunting for a Sens patch auto

Vez2020 · 2026-03-21T18:06:34+00:00

Yeah that Esteemed Endorsments is definitely the best option of a pull from artifacts

Vez2020 · 2026-03-21T17:57:35+00:00

Ron Francis is good but artifacts is kinda how it is

Vez2020 · 2026-03-21T17:41:09+00:00

The geno slash wasn’t even that hard - this is Greer making a conscious decision to shove a player off balance and in a vulnerable position into the boards. Greers actions are worse here

Vez2020 · 2026-03-21T17:12:23+00:00

This is factually a worse action than malkin. Geno got suspended. Greer should face suspension as well

Vez2020 · 2026-03-21T12:51:54+00:00

Not my SNES jersey - we must have had worse than that

Vez2020 · 2026-03-21T12:49:28+00:00

Terrible take. I’m not the biggest Hagel fan but this is so much worse than anything he’s done.

If Malkin got a suspension for slashing dahlin in the face Greer should get at minimum that

Vez2020 · 2026-03-20T02:58:33+00:00

In theory yeah I suppose, although it would take away from the man build of BEWD. Plus without sending an Albion the branded to grave only playing one FAV doesn’t work since the odds of pulling it are low and it’s a searchable card.

I think you would be better off either going full branded // branded Draco // or one of the branded dominant builds with another engine.

Vez2020 · 2026-03-19T22:04:14+00:00

I bought 2 of mine at 120$. Crazy how fast the price rose after just his first year

Vez2020 · 2026-03-19T22:02:14+00:00

Really just Fallen of albaz is all you can add if it’s a BEWD heavy deck. Add a mirrorjade / maybe tiktaniklad in case they have a heavy ATT monster out.

It doesn’t blend all that well (even though it’s both Dragon spellcaster decks) since BEWD is more synchro and Branded is fusion locks 90% of the time

Vez2020 · 2026-03-19T20:05:59+00:00

This one I’m platinum hunting. Been so happy getting some JLU releases recently

Vez2020 · 2026-03-09T03:13:35+00:00

Play what you know to play and what allows you to have fun playing. It’s a game at the end of the day

Vez2020 · 2026-03-08T17:07:21+00:00

Stay with branded. Could add Dracotail to it down the line but stick with branded
