Branded Tri-Brigade Deck Guide: How to Play

Playstyle and Win Condition

With the past few updates to the Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel Banlist, people may think that the Tri-Brigade has lost its luster, having cards like Tri-Brigade Fraktall and Fire Formation - Tenki being added to Semi-Limited, which affected the Tri-Brigade Archetype's consistency.

But, with the introduction of Tri-Brigade Mercourier in the game, it is now viable to combine both Branded and Tri-Brigade Archetypes to create a once-again consistent and reliable Tri-Brigade Deck, being able to quickly summon out big Boss Monsters and begin taking control of the Duel early on in the match.

Final Board

Final Board

These combos leaves you with a Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon, Ancient Warriors Oath - Double Dragon Lords, and Tri-Brigade Revolt on the Field, while having a Tri-Brigade Mercourier in the Hand.

This end board provides you with 1 Banish via Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon which also provides protection by destroying all your opponent's monsters if/when this monster leaves the field. A bounce via the Ancient Warriors Oath - Double Dragon Lords, a Trap Card that Special Summons any number of Beast, Beast-Warrior, and/or Winged Beast monsters that are either Banished or in your GY, and the chance to Link Summon a Tri-Brigade Monster using the Special Summoned Monsters with its Effect.

And, with Tri-Brigade Mercourier in the Hand while Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon is on the Field, you can negate the activation of any of your opponent's Monster Effect by discarding it from your hand.

Drytron Fairy Deck List and Card Guide

Best Cards to Tech Against Branded Tri-Brigade

	Contact "C"
	Contact "C" pretty much locks your opponent's Branded Tri-Brigade Deck by keeping their Extra Deck Summons at bay, unless they use it as Material. Given the way this deck Special Summons a lot, Contact "C" can be a viable deterent.
	PSY-Framegear Gamma
	A hand trap that can be used to negate the effects of your opponent's Branded Tri-Brigade especially when used against cards like Test Panter, Tri-Brigade Ferrijit the Barren Blossom or other similar cards, destroying them in the process.
	Prohibition
	Using Prohibition and naming cards like Branded Fusion, Tri-Brigade Mercourier, etc. will pretty much lock your opponent's Branded Tri-Brigade Deck from being able to perform as it should. Just make sure to use it as soon as you know that your opponent is using a Branded Tri-Brigade Deck before they can bring out any of these cards.
	Effect Veiler
	Another hand trap like PSY-Framegear Gamma that can be used against cards like Tri-Brigade Fraktall, Tri-Brigade Ferrijit the Barren Blossom or other similar cards.
	Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring
	This card can be quickly used to cancel specific effects that are at the core of Branded Tri-Brigade decks by discarding this card.

Limit Summons & Negate

This Branded Tri-Brigade Deck relies on searches and chaining summons to use for their Etra Deck Summons to create a strong board early in the game.

Using a combination of spells and traps to interrupt your opponent will quickly put the duel in your favor.
