This is an updated deck profile / combo tutorial for Sapphire Surprise, the deck whose prototype once took me to the national championship. It combines Tri-Brigade and Albaz/Branded by using Crystal Beast and Springans engines... plus it works great with Horus and Diabellestar/Azamina. You can also take Nemeses in any direction you want, and Master Duel players still have Verte, Apollousa, and more. The possibilities are limitless! (But your Extra Deck is not.)

Huge thanks to everyone who encouraged me to take the YouTube thing seriously this year. With my challenge completed, I will no longer be pushing myself to meet weekly uploads, but I still have a long list of videos to make in 2025! Maybe I'll sleep in the meantime. Maybe.

I have a TCGplayer affiliate link! It'll take you to their Yu-Gi-Oh site, and if you're in a deck-building mood, your purchase will also support this channel: partner.tcgplayer.com/raONay

Lastly, here are my tournament vlogs. These were pre-2024, so they're more for general audiences, about what it's like to play a competitive card game.
