Notes & Combos

Princess EFB Endymion (Secret Village Turbo Edition). Same list as the one I submitted for Master 5.

This format is just a super annoying hand trap nightmare. Gameplan hasn't changed, since top rank is dominated by Tenpai, just go into Secret Village via Majesty Pegasus if you're able to. I still ignore Maxx C and take the challenge going 1st. If I lose, I lose. Just be aware that Village and Pegasus are bad cards going 2nd and you do not want to see them in your opening hand or draw into it.

As for going 2nd, nothing has changed. Play through the opponent's disruptions and break their board piece by piece like you always would.

People have asked me couple of things:

1. How come you don't run Amblowhale with the Princess engine?

• Having more negates with at least IP into SP as your endboard is more ideal than to have two spot removals (Princess pop amblowhale and amblowhale non target pop). I don't think the trade off is worth it. However, I do believe Elf is more valuable especially going 2nd or if you're in a situation where you got gamma'd and you need to extend when going 1st.

2. How come you don't run Apollo?

• We really don't need Apollo (plus we need to be wary of a potential ban of Apollo). You're typical Endymion endboard is 90% of the time more than enough to stop your opponent.

3. How come you don't run Exceed?

• We don't need Exceed because Selene does a better job than Exceed does for this deck. There is value in Exceed getting your missing scale without going into Beyond but Endymion is manageable without Exceed. Exceed is much better in Pend/SK Magicians.
