Goodbye, Branded Expulsion Kristya Lock | For Old Times Sake, We'll Miss You | Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Описание: A couple of quick replays using a Branded Darklord decklist variant showcasing the Branded Expulsion Kristya Lock combo (which prevents any special summoning as long as Archlord Kristya is on the field) one last time before Branded Expulsion goes away into the ban list shadow realm now that it has been Forbidden. Although I am not too big a fan of floodgates, as they are not very interactive and prefer back and forth duels, sometimes they are a necessary evil to fight back other oppressive decks and is sometimes a bit funny when opponents don't know or realize why they can't special summon. I actually really liked the fact that you still had the ability to get back your banished monsters in a pinch with Branded Expulsion and make other great plays without having to floodgate opponents. They should actually do the opposite and ban the floodgates instead, because regardless, it is not the end for the Kristya Lock as some of the upcoming cards such as Albion the Sanctifire Dragon and Duality will still make summoning it just as possible but in a different form (just not from the banished pile) and maybe even easier..? And of course, there is still the option of using the old methods of special summoning through its own effect or also using The First Darklord (and the last resort option of tribute summoning lol).

R.I.P. to the homie Branded Expulsion
