Analysis?

Not really – this is a pretty standard Vivid Strike meta build, and since I personally got to see our boi Seba take it all the way to 1st place, I thought I’d shamelessly use my connections for a quick and easy post give him some well-deserved spotlight.

How long have you been playing the deck?
Since about June.

What’s your favorite card in the deck and why?
Probably the brainstormer. The idea of a climax combo brainstormer makes me laugh, and the sheer utility and amount of things this card does is insane.

How does the deck work?
Get Fuukas on board at level 2, make them stay there by any means necessary, try and drag out the game until you can just kill your opponent with all the Fuuka burns. The Wish counter and the 0/0 Rinne help a lot with those heals for days.

What kind of decks are a bad/good match-up for this deck?
Any decks that can’t answer Fuuka are bad against this deck.
Decks that have anti-burn are extremely good against it (especially Kemono Friends), so are decks that have a way of dealing with Fuuka that you can’t do anything about (like Railgun with its board wipe). Also Re:Zero since it can bond to its anti-early-play suicider with the brainstormer.

After winning today, is there anything you would still change in the build?
I considered adding the 0/0 1k backup to the deck, but I probably won’t since it isn’t useful too often.

Is this the deck you’ll be playing at the WSEL Final / WGP Qualifier in Rome?
Yes, because it’s the only finished JP deck I have at the moment. And even if it wasn’t, I’d still play it because it’s what I’m best at.

 

That’s it, guys. If you have any other questions, leave them in the comments and I’ll go bug Seba on your behalf 😛 Have a nice day!
