In this video I’m back with a quick profile on my Red/Purple deck after taking Top 4 at my NTC for the Dynames & Lockon Newtype Challenge 2026 Mission 2. I’ll show the Lockon prize stuff (and yeah, I’m not sure how long Lockon is gonna be “in service” when we get deeper into the anime timeline), then I break down the full list and why the deck is still mainly driven by the purple engine. The low bodies like Grace Custom and Hakiran matter a ton early, and Adapt is just way too strong to not max out. I go over the key red pieces too—Casatria and Marita Cruz were straight up gamechanging, because that 2-ping pressure matters in a lot of matchups. I also talk about why the deck can feel frustrating: there’s basically no real draw power, so if you don’t see what you need for the situation, you’re kinda cooked. Then I recap my matchups from the event (including the rough red/white game where I just didn’t have answers, and the Providence/Eisrike set where I had to play disciplined and clear blockers like the Justice Falcon combo). MVP for me was the Casatria package, and Lupus came in clutch off top-decks to swing games.
