I've seen enough — Branded Despia is officially Tier 1 again! 10+ Branded Despia pilots Top 8'd Regionals last weekend, and this video breaks down every single topping decklist from players still running Despia cards the right way.

NO Dracotail decks — except one pile that leans heavier into Despia than Dracotail, so it earns its spot.

Expect hidden techs, smart card choices, and real strategies you can take straight into your next Regional this format.
