Hey lads and lasses, its me its your best friend CanYouSayG, and welcome to Premium Watch, where we feature some of the newest deck ideas and concepts to grace the format, featured after winning a tournament, often times small (8-10) to as many as 60+ participants. We will be mostly focusing on newer interesting ideas. May these decklists help with your own deckbuilding and meta analysis!

Our first entry this week is an Aquaforce build: Ripple Diamantes

this build utilizes Oddesseyus to create early game offense and the soul to supply Tidal assault with ammo, which is then followed up with an accel circle via Diamantes or multiple attacks with Diamantes on RG.

One funky trick to pull off to ride Diamantes, get an accel marker, use Oddyseyus to re-ride a Ripple name, and then pull Diamantes out to the RG Accel circle you just made, giving you a minimum of 5 attacks that turn! Legion up that turn and youre off to a great start with 6 attacks!

Next is an Ichiki-Tom decklist from Lithuania

As standard as the build comes, Ichikishima-Tom is proving to hold just as solid a place in the format as always before.

Next up is Blademaster Overlord

https://twitter.com/idol_omura_tcg/status/1028471462997315584

By using Blademaster to retrieve G3 and get further advantage a while using Overlord as fuel for ThePurge and to call as 23k RG, this is a rather interesting beatdown deck, that takes advantage of the fact that Kagero doenst use its Force marker particularly effectively in Premium.

Next is a Blaster build based on Blaster Javelin Larousse

This deck uses Blaster Javelin Larousse to search out Floral Paladin Flogal as well as Packgals to set up their kill via a high powered blaster blade + multiple restands. Damage denial doesnt really work as this deck can search out its counter charger packgal very easily.

Do note the Techgal tech. Search it out with Larousse, use it to boost your blaster blade up to 28k-38k.

Next up is ARG winner LivingProof's Spike Brothers Force Hellhard Eight list

A mix of early game high powered beatdown followed by a stride game giving multiple high powered attacks, a beatdown deck to be feared. A surprise Hellhard eight will surely seal out multiple games if you are not wary!

Next up is Shadow Paladin

https://twitter.com/Rebook_naruto/status/1028232103823986690?s=19

This is what appears to be a modified Trial deck, adding in Esras and Branwens for stride game, as well as Macha for more multiple attack.

Claret Hellheim and its combination with Force marker is to be noted. Even on first stride, if the opponent is a Protect clan, they will have to decide between using the gift or taking the hits from RG, as with a Force on RG, even a 5k Rg will be able to deliver a hit. Any perfect guards will be sealed as it calls more and more attacks, all powered up with the Force marker.

Next up we have a Luard deck

https://twitter.com/CanYouSayG/status/1030468539830792192

Utilizing the higher numbers of newer triggers as well as flexible and advantage based effects of older triggers, as well as a mix of Blaster Dark and Blaster Javelin being thrown in to speed up the early game deck thinning, this deck may not use Force, but certainly can use many of the new decks to its full potential.

Next up is a Dimension Police OnePunch deck

https://twitter.com/bigmagicakb/status/1031011170113613824

By using X-Gallop, either the stride bonus or by striding over a Daiyusha with force, you can easily reach 40k power. Double that with Laurel and your first stride X-Gallop is already hitting for 80k+ with 2 crit. Standard concept, but the inclusion of Miracle dandy to keep yourself alive and cover for how the deck all-ins very early and has to gamble a lot of its defense/staying alive is new.

And last up we have Kevin Ajolt Nyugen's Trois Ange from 3rd place ARG Nationals



https://twitter.com/CanYouSayG/status/1028769002057654274

Not much to say about this that hasnt already been covered in Kevin's own video or other articles. Do check them out!

But this deck is a prime example of two things: 1) Your Gdeck isnt suddenly trash. Its actually on top of the format 2) Think outside of standard grade distribution conventions. Its the road to victory.
