Good lord, I never thought I would live to see the day when a new Salamangreat decklist is uploaded to this site in 2024, but here we are. To be honest with you, I really miss Salamangreat. It wasn't my favorite deck out there, but I didn't dislike it either. It's just a shame how Salamangreat is just a shell of its former self, forgotten by Konami, and not given any support since September 28, 2022 when VRAINS was first added to Duel Links. It really makes me sad how Soulburner fans keep getting shafted with every VRAINS update in Duel Links, especially when you realize that every VRAINS deck got some kind of support except Soulburner. I guess Konami hasn't forgiven Soulburner's Salamangreat deck yet for its tier zero crimes, even though we are long past the point of Salamangreat being a meta threat. I feel like Konami should ease up a bit on the Salamangreat limitations to test the waters a bit before cutting the deck loose in terms of its restrictions.

~~~~~

I'm not really sure how Konami can test the waters on Salamangreat because I genuinely don't want to see Salamangreat Roar terrorizing my games ever again, but at the same time, Salamangreat isn't even a deck without that omni negate to control the field, so it's tricky to say on how we can ease the Salamangreat limitations so the deck is fair, but not overly broken. The problem is that Salamangreat Roar is a recyclable omni negate, which wouldn't be a problem had the omni negate not been on a Counter Trap speed. The fact it's a Counter Trap means your opponent has no chance to respond to Salamangreat Roar with a counter, like Forbidden Lance. Counter Traps in general have had a notoriously bad history in Duel Links so it makes sense why Konami felt the need to strip Salamangreat of their Salamangreat Roar omni negate.

~~~~~

That being said, I think the best way to test the waters before easing the Salamangreat bans would be to just give this deck the support it so rightfully deserves. It's shocking to me how this deck has received absolutely nothing. I would have expected to get Salamangreat Miragestallio, Salamangreat Spinny, Will of the Salamangreat, or even Salamangreat Pyro Phoenix. I always say this every time Salamangreat is mentioned, but it's a crime and a half how Soulburner is the only character left in VRAINS who doesn't have his link 4 ace monster (Salamangreat Pyro Phoenix). We have Firewall Dragon (Playmaker), Gouki the Master Ogre (The Gore), Trickstar Bella Madonna (Blue Angel), Borreload Dragon (Varis), Sunavalon Dryatrentiay (Spectre), and my favorite of them all, Altergeist Memorygant (my wife Ghost Gal). There's barely any room in the Salamangreat Extra Deck to fit x2 copies of Pyro Phoenix as is, so I don't see why Konami is so hesitant on giving Soulburner his link 4 just so every VRAINS character has their ace link 4 card.

~~~~~

Congrats on the KC Cup max either way though. It's honestly quite impressive how you managed to make it with Salamangreats of all things, truly the secret spice of the format that I've never seen before. I'll be joining you at the top soon with my Altergeists, so wish me luck. I'm gonna need it cause just like you, my Altergeist deck also has a losing matchup into Lyriluscs. Here's hoping Salamangreat gets the support it so rightfully deserves sometime next year in 2025. =)
