Yugioh's most absurd new combo deck that works: Sapphire Surprise
22,432
Published 2023-12-29
This is a deck profile / combo tutorial for Sapphire Surprise, the deck whose prototype took me to the national championship. It combines Tri-Brigade and Albaz/Branded by using Crystal Beast and Springans engines... plus whatever other engines float your goats. In Master Duel you can also get OHKOs with Verte, and Thunder Dragon Colossus via Nemeses Corridor. The possibilities are limitless! (But your Extra Deck is not.)

You can literally see me becoming more exhausted as the video goes on (when the camera is on, anyway) (there were A FEW retakes).
If for some weird reason you'd like to read a comprehensive guide on how to build and pilot this pile and its many possible variations, here you go: docs.google.com/document/d/1UUw5Vbp1EooOqos5Ko4C_B…
Catch my two tournament vlogs here. They're about what it's like to play competitive Yugioh, not detailed tournament reports. I'd say not to expect more Yugioh content from me, but since this video took off, I've now added Yugioh stuff to my upload rotation.

The lack of a provided deck list is intentional. The written guide has suggestions for engines, techs, and ratios--toss in whatever sounds fun. You'll figure out a streamlined list for your play style long before you've figured out how to navigate the main combos. Sapphire Surprise guide: docs.google.com/document/d/1UUw5Vbp1EooOqos5Ko4C_B…

This is the kind of content the average deck profiles are missing: actual discussion of synergies and setups. It doesn't matter how messy a deck is if it can be properly explained.
-
This is the kind of creativity that modern yugioh is missing. I love this.
-
This is the exact kind of ygo content I've been looking for. Deep explanations of decks, with 15-page documents explaining what doesn't fit in the video. Honestly this is such a crazy deck and I'm amazed you looked at the crystal beasts and thought "what if I used these to summon almost everything from the Albaz lore," I'm envious of the creativity
-
There’s so much going on. The dripped out clothes, the max cooked deck, the intense lines of combos, the absolute depth and creativity. Bro you more than earned my sub i’m definitely trying this deck out
-
Guys this is my 69th video and it got me to 420 subscribers. The internet gods have confirmed that this deck is worthy!
-

Good to see you back Mark 💪

We need more talented and original people like you on here. So many people who just copy others nowadays. You got my sub and I would love to see more from you.
-
This is the jankiest deck I've seen all year, I love it!
-
This is so so needed. The formatting, the personality. Already one of my favorite channels.
-
when i saw this on recommended i didn’t think i would watch the entire thing, much less find something this amazing.
-
I've been studying this deck for days . Once I think I cracked it there's another line to discover. Amazing combo deck with so much main deck room for options. Your a master chef .
-
Can we get some time to appreciate not only this man's creativity but also how he explained how everything works in detail instead of just telling how to do a 1 card combo
-
Damn the spice of this deck is phenominal. Its so original that i dont even dare to touch the deck. I have most things although some tri brigade/springans things are missing. Pretty good. Love it.
-
Honeslty, one of the most creative deck profiles I have ever seen. Keep up the good job!
-
currently into building this deck and figuring everything out. very thankful for this video. this is in my opinion what a true in depth guide to a deck should be.
-
This is wonderful. I can't say it's going to rock the meta, but it's truly wonderful
-
