Firstly, there's the Shaddoll ratios: 2 Beast, 3 Falco, 2 Dragon, 1 Hedge? If that is convention, then I'm just really out of touch. Secondly, there's the choice of LIGHT monsters. Maining triple Veiler and double Lancea? I suppose its a good meta call, but its interesting that they're not running Seraphs. Also, Felis? I was under the impression it was mediocre at best. Then there's triple Shadow Games. Most builds are playing 1-2 now. Both decks are really heavily focusing on Falco, it would seem, but why? Also, they're both very very Trap heavy. In a non-Seraph build, I would probably play like 5-6 Traps. It seems like it would ruin the consistency. Also, they run 3 Winda. Its only really good against BA and Satellar, and even then you're not going to need 3. There is obviously good reason for all this and it obviously worked pretty well since they both topped, but its barely even regocnisable as Shaddolls any more. Anyone have the answers? ihop I'm pointing at you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ujxs9E83qE Long himself puts it better than I ever would. It's important to note that this is a YCS where in the higher rounds you'll probably be playing mainly Nekroz, which is where the maindecked Lanceas come in, plus the case with 3 Veiler, 2 Lancea and Felis, as with all LIGHTs, is exactly that - they're LIGHT. Construct is so good that you really want to summon it as much as you possibly can. This is a YCS build. At a smaller event I'd play 1-2 Falco, 3 Beast and 2 Hedge because that helps in the mirror which has a good chance of being your most common matchup.
