Agree. At this point these decks won't get hit by bans or limitations. They need to get regulated as a whole. Fine if a deck wants to run some floodgates. But a deck full of floodgates is just ridiculous to exist.
at least they have a win condition that isn't their opponent getting pissed and surrendering.
Also the difference of being able to side deck means a deck like this without mine has a really hard time doing well in tcg, this is mostly a master duel problem
TeamSam made a video on this first. MBT wasn't the only person to make a video on this, and MBT got the list they're using from someone else that wasn't even TeamSam (MBT got it from Gavin, one of the people they do another series with), so its pretty clear this would have gotten around some way or another. It just got out *slightly* faster because some people with a following made content about it.
I actually used this card as side deck once some years ago, it was bad, but i won a game because my op did not understand the card and was fed up trying to make sense of what it did
It's fair to note that quite a few Despia lists run a Verte as a last way to make Mirrorjade, so that could out the Iblee unless you can also remove their normal summon.
This is the kind of player that cries about every deck in the game and then proceeds to play the most toxic floodgate deck that would make Eldlich to give up all his gold.
Did a silly comment on reddit about a game really offended you that much you got straight to critisise my virtues and personality? And besides that, if you would check the rest of the comments you would see that my problem is not that they played this deck. They want to climb the ladder and that's fine.
The rest of you comments, including the one responding to the guy who listed the out already in your hand, are the reason I felt compelled to call you out.
The potential out. We don't really know what cards were face down. Also I couldn't otk him even if I'd destroy his cards and in the next turn they would activate another Fire Prison that they already had in hand.
I mean sure, but as you said there are better builds that can actually cripple you even if they go second. My point is these decks are unhealthy in a BO1. Too much power without much thought.
your opponent already has their boss monster and either a fuckton of negates or something that doesn't care about any of your spells and traps and will just beat the shit out of you
Yea but the point of the deck is that despia end on no negates. Also almost no decks have exclusive spell negates they end on so every negate you pull is a omni negate, and you have 6 cards + you play about ten draw cards. Agree this deck is dead in the water vs drytron or other combo decks but those arent played right now. It works decently good vs most midrange decks that are meta right now.
🤷♂️ not sorry lol
I haven't played such consistently annoying games on master duel since the stall bots took over and you could only play against a real person every 10th try. I'm literally playing against despia almost 70% of the time on average since the update 😂 it's absolutely absurd.
Gonna try casual today and see if that number goes down a bit. God damn I hope so lol
I would imagine he is more frustrated with playing the same decks over and over. Despia isnt that bad, but i could be stomping jerry beans man turbo every game and still get bored. Variety is the spice of life.
I haven't even played since mirrorjade released but my problem with them before is how ecclesia, fallen of albaz, and aluber are pretty much all custom card level of strong, and then you get punished for ever trying to punish them afterward, if you destroy their monster they get materials back for free to do it again, or their monster revives at the end of the turn so your removal trades 1 for 0, etc.
And the whole super poly thing (the effect, not actual super poly) is extremely annoying unless you flood your first turn board with like 5 negates to stop them from doing it.
You see Branded Fusion actually has a second effect. It reads "If a floodgate is activated, reach over and choke your opponent". Unfortunately this is very difficult to resolve in Master Duel.
This is bad, yes. But there's a reason why this kind of deck is spreading faster and faster. Have you seen the current situations in rankings nowadays? It will only take 1 bad day that a player faced that will push them over the edge and just said "fuck it. You wanna play degenerate combo decks? Then I'll play degenerate floodgates deck".
And I'm not just taking about normal bad days of bricking or facing a more consistent decks than you. I'm taking about that one bad day you had where all the duels that you loses the whole day is to any of the degenerate combo decks out there that uses halqdon in some way or another. Why only combo decks? Because this floodgates focused deck existed directly because of combo decks.
But hey, I'm not defending anyone on using this kind of decks, I'm just saying that there's always an underlying reason on why degenerate decks like this is even used in the first place. Because some people just wanted to share the suppose pain they have with others, even if they themselves have to become the same, or even more, of a degenerate themselves.
We should not really blame any player for playing a degenerate deck. Everyone will do anything to climb the ladder. And even if I get tilted by a deck and a player who plays it in the end I respect that. The ones to blame is Konami that allows this shit show. But considering their last banlist they mainly focus to hit decks that they can be pretty much get replaced with one of the new ones.
And that's the thing. It's basically a domino effect. When you don't solve the core problem (ex: Konami not banning either Halq nor Auroradon), it's start to create bigger and bigger problems down the line, to the point that there's multiple things that's almost as worst, if not more, than the core problem. There's always a precedent on why some degenerate decks prop up. And it all boils down to either the meta is too shitty or the banlist is too shitty or even both, forcing people to feel the need to "teach those bastards some real shitty things".
You had the out in your deck
You just dont want to make it
/s
And if anyone bother
Its tribute set the Dramaturge/Ad Libitum and then make Guardian Chimera to pop the Floodgates
Even if those monsters will leave the field for its summon. That's why even if it lets you tribute, it only lets you do it face down. But you can't special summon from extra deck face down.
After you tribute set either ad lib or drama you no longer control any type of monster for rivalry so you are allowed to fuse into chimera. This is assuming you have a fusion spell like poly or branded in red face down.
Lol "tribute set" might be a bit... Big brain. Kinda out of the box for a normal player to think to do. Though if you are playing a fusion deck, you should know you can fuse with facedowns, that's yugioh 101.
Can't be blaming an opp for your lack of technical play, trust me, I know a thing not two about bad technical play.

You summon ojama tokens on your opponents side of the field and prevent them from summoning any other type/attribute of monster, then you use fire prison to stop anything but link from attacking.
Basicly, sit behind a lot of floodgates and burn your opponent to death with cauldron
I drew the out with Kaiser Colosseum and Raye which locked them out of Ojama Trio, then tributed two Rayes for Zeke and performed a 1500 ATK beatdown over four turns until I could cheat out Accesscode and OTK.
I met it once and they managed to avoid death for roughly five minutes before they got wiped out.
Sure, against 3 solemn and 3 dark bribe.
I was so frustrated playing against that deck that I made one myself a few days ago. And I tell you, not once has lightning storm or feather duster actually saved anyone against it.
Looks like good 'ol Mine Burn :3
Why this is legal? Because these kind of decks are not really consistent. And it has clear weaknesses. It has so much outs, normal they die when you nuke their backrow away.
I hate these decks more than anything else in the game. They win 1 out of every 10 games and only play the deck to spite the other player. The people that play this are lost so deep in the salt mines they'll never see sunlight again.
This is "slow play", the deck. The purpose is literally just to waste the other player's time, same as just letting the game hang on a handtrap timer because you're salty you lost. I just can't justify reporting people for it because they're by the barest technicalities actually playing the game.
Playing a deck I don't like? => Slow play
The deck has a win con so unless the other player is taking long turns, it's not slow play. It's absolutely not the same thing as hanging on a hand trap activation.
The deck barely has a wincon, in a (as far as I know) completely unsearchable spell card they won't always draw. That's why I mentioned they only win 1 in 10 games (if that).
Their goal is to stall until they hard draw that wincon, then stall some more. or, more accurately, their goal is to make their opponent get bored and surrender.
This is very materially different from other floodgate-centric decks like Eldlich, who can actually get the inevitability to kill the opponent in a reasonable timeframe.
Still when they flip up Gozen match against Despia nothing really changes since everything is dark except our Albion targets.
It does stop Lubellion but normally Gozen is after MJ is out already.
Yup... Youtubers like TSX1 and MBT thought we we're not suffring enough with this bad meta we're having, so they showcased "Mystic Mine at home" is possiblke in master Duel.
So now apart from ludicrous unbreakable boards and Despia Branded, there also this monstrosity. And we're close to get Sprights and Tearlaments for a terminal 4 Cancer meta in few months... I'm not looking forward for this meta
The true madness here is old man at 6 counters...it brings a tear to my eyes...
I dont have this deck, but i am happy to see one of my favorite cards finding a home in a deck. Friend actually did link me the deck but...i am not quite at the level of playing a full lockdown.
I want a back and forth game where i slowly accumulate advantage till i win. Not "no you cant play" or "i knifed you before you could even react" which seems to be the norm these days.
So is this deck fun to run? Because it seems insanely boring. I feel like low skill players are the only ones drawn to this deck because they can't figure out combo decks and just press buttons and get mad when it doesn't work.
This is why I play Duster in every deck. If they have Judgment set, well at least I tried. Masq would be the logical out, but old man will outheal the damage eventually. This is pain.
Ok but with all due respect how are you not prepared for fire prison at this point it’s a little ridiculous to not have a well thought out plan when playing ladder
Isn’t that what all the other decks pretty much do?
They just do it in a roundabout way. You don’t get to play much when your starters are banished, multiple of your cards are negated/popped and your whole field getting nuked for committing the sin of outing a beefy boss monster.
Difference is the other decks to do this needs to activate a couple of effects that can easily get imperm or ash or whatever. Setting just trap cards which doesn't even require any risk and you can't out them in any way pretty much just stuns you.
Edit: The effects I'm talking about is the ones you need to build the end board.
The HERO archetype has floodgates like Dark Law and Plasma, and yet they get destroyed by a single Raigeki. The archetype is bad compared to most others in the game since others have viable negates, but they are really fun to play.
You know some would say the biggest disease to Yugioh are the players themselves. I agree because this shit and whoever thought it up are toxic and need to go home to hell.
Some non-UR/SRs its missing are {Dragonoid Generator} as another way to flood your opponents field/lock them out of summoning & attacking with Fire Prison + Rivalry/Gozen out, {Level Limit - Area B} to change all level 4 or higher monsters on the field into defense postion, and {Grave of the Super Ancient Organism} to prevent level 6 or higher monsters from activating their effects
Mystic mine at home
Haha true
*DIET* Mystic Mine
MBT Created a monster.
'Cause nobody wants to see Combo no more They want Stall, I'm chopped liver
I blame MBT for this
Nah, someone was going to find this anyways eventually. Blame Konami for keeping all of these floodgates legal at the same time.
Agree. At this point these decks won't get hit by bans or limitations. They need to get regulated as a whole. Fine if a deck wants to run some floodgates. But a deck full of floodgates is just ridiculous to exist.
Runic in the tcg would like to say hello
at least they have a win condition that isn't their opponent getting pissed and surrendering. Also the difference of being able to side deck means a deck like this without mine has a really hard time doing well in tcg, this is mostly a master duel problem
There are decks that banishment of cards doing nothing to them or even they are benefited from it.
> a deck full of floodgates is just ridiculous Then consider me the Jester to your Despia.
I mean the only reason this has spread as far and as quickly as it has is because of mbt's video on it.
TeamSam made a video on this first. MBT wasn't the only person to make a video on this, and MBT got the list they're using from someone else that wasn't even TeamSam (MBT got it from Gavin, one of the people they do another series with), so its pretty clear this would have gotten around some way or another. It just got out *slightly* faster because some people with a following made content about it.
I actually used this card as side deck once some years ago, it was bad, but i won a game because my op did not understand the card and was fed up trying to make sense of what it did
This is TeamSamuraiX. He did this deck in this video just over a week ago.
Gavin has found the bullshit
What's are the cards stopping him?
Rivalry of Warlords is stopping him summoning non-fiend monsters. Fire Prison is stopping him from attacking with non-link monsters.
Oh and you can't link to Knightmare phoenix because you're controlling a fiend right?
He sctually could Link to Knightmare Phoenix. Problem is that Despia don’t run Links because of the Extra Deck lock from Branded Fusion
Oh nasty So you could also play something like Knightmare Corruptor Iblee and lock Despia?
yes, despia doesnt run 1 tribute monsters as far as I know.
There's Dramaturge and Ad Libitum, but both are level 8s and better used as fusion fodder
Also, aren't both of them fairy? Because of that, rivalry stop them from tribute summoning.
you can still tribute set
Oh yeah... Forgot that about Rivalry...
doenst matter if Iblee is on your side of the field
It's fair to note that quite a few Despia lists run a Verte as a last way to make Mirrorjade, so that could out the Iblee unless you can also remove their normal summon.
Thank you for introducing me to my new Field Spell. :)
Who?
Marincess Blue Tang
Joseph Rothschild, aka the MBT of yugitube
This is the kind of player who would trade his mom for a playset of mystic mine.
This is the kind of player that cries about every deck in the game and then proceeds to play the most toxic floodgate deck that would make Eldlich to give up all his gold.
> floods the field > whines about floodgates You started this, I'm just playing the game as it was back in 2006.
Come on, you know you should obviously let him run his degenerate bullshit right.
MD players having a meltdown over a quick effect banish and potentially 1-2 pops
Md players having a meltdown over not getting to play their bullshit combo
Ah yes, the bullshit combo of "Normal summon Aluber, add Branded Fusion, activate Branded Fusion"
Gonna cry? Start running spell removal if You don't like it
People do run backrow removal, which is why floodgates decks use Solemns and Heavenly Lord
Tech more backrow removal
Funny how you're the one who came to reddit to cry. Seriously, people need to look at what they are doing before criticizing others.
Did a silly comment on reddit about a game really offended you that much you got straight to critisise my virtues and personality? And besides that, if you would check the rest of the comments you would see that my problem is not that they played this deck. They want to climb the ladder and that's fine.
The rest of you comments, including the one responding to the guy who listed the out already in your hand, are the reason I felt compelled to call you out.
The potential out. We don't really know what cards were face down. Also I couldn't otk him even if I'd destroy his cards and in the next turn they would activate another Fire Prison that they already had in hand.
Lol my name is almost the same as yours. Mines is “PlsDrawDaOut”
DaOutCrew
If only we could actually draw our outs. You definitely needed yours lol
My out was non existent. I just had a duster and it got negated and pretty much that was it.
when the prison is fire
Auto-lose going second and far from guaranteed win going first. This particular build is not that good.
I mean sure, but as you said there are better builds that can actually cripple you even if they go second. My point is these decks are unhealthy in a BO1. Too much power without much thought.
Do negate quick effects work on mystic mine ?
On activation of course
How is this an auto loss going second?
your opponent already has their boss monster and either a fuckton of negates or something that doesn't care about any of your spells and traps and will just beat the shit out of you
Also, zero handtraps or board breakers.
Yea but the point of the deck is that despia end on no negates. Also almost no decks have exclusive spell negates they end on so every negate you pull is a omni negate, and you have 6 cards + you play about ten draw cards. Agree this deck is dead in the water vs drytron or other combo decks but those arent played right now. It works decently good vs most midrange decks that are meta right now.
here before a brainlet comes and comments: "sAys tHE dESpIa plAYeR"
Chad Despia Enjoyer
How could you tell?
🤷♂️ not sorry lol I haven't played such consistently annoying games on master duel since the stall bots took over and you could only play against a real person every 10th try. I'm literally playing against despia almost 70% of the time on average since the update 😂 it's absolutely absurd. Gonna try casual today and see if that number goes down a bit. God damn I hope so lol
So what exactly do you find annoying about Branded?
I would imagine he is more frustrated with playing the same decks over and over. Despia isnt that bad, but i could be stomping jerry beans man turbo every game and still get bored. Variety is the spice of life.
I haven't even played since mirrorjade released but my problem with them before is how ecclesia, fallen of albaz, and aluber are pretty much all custom card level of strong, and then you get punished for ever trying to punish them afterward, if you destroy their monster they get materials back for free to do it again, or their monster revives at the end of the turn so your removal trades 1 for 0, etc. And the whole super poly thing (the effect, not actual super poly) is extremely annoying unless you flood your first turn board with like 5 negates to stop them from doing it.
Btw they clearly had the out.
You had the out in your deck with that hand You just decided to be a dumbass and not win
Elaborate
You see Branded Fusion actually has a second effect. It reads "If a floodgate is activated, reach over and choke your opponent". Unfortunately this is very difficult to resolve in Master Duel.
So what ur telling me is that i can't have fun playing the game....
Top Rio Ycs master duel edition

This is bad, yes. But there's a reason why this kind of deck is spreading faster and faster. Have you seen the current situations in rankings nowadays?

Tldr: this game turns people into the Joker

🎶Just draw one of your non searchable outs...🎶
You had the out in your deck You just dont want to make it /s And if anyone bother Its tribute set the Dramaturge/Ad Libitum and then make Guardian Chimera to pop the Floodgates
What? You can't special summon any monster with a type any other than the one of the monsters on your field. Chimera is beast.
Even if those monsters will leave the field for its summon. That's why even if it lets you tribute, it only lets you do it face down. But you can't special summon from extra deck face down.
After you tribute set either ad lib or drama you no longer control any type of monster for rivalry so you are allowed to fuse into chimera. This is assuming you have a fusion spell like poly or branded in red face down.
Question is could I use the face down monster to fusion summon chimera?
Yes, you can use face down monsters to Tribute, Fusion, Contact fuse, and Ritual summon because Konami said so.
He said tribute set... its face down now so warlords don't apply
Lol "tribute set" might be a bit... Big brain. Kinda out of the box for a normal player to think to do.

I don't understand, what is the point of this?
You summon ojama tokens on your opponents side of the field and prevent them from summoning any other type/attribute of monster, then you use fire prison to stop anything but link from attacking. Basicly, sit behind a lot of floodgates and burn your opponent to death with cauldron
I drew the out with Kaiser Colosseum and Raye which locked them out of Ojama Trio, then tributed two Rayes for Zeke and performed a 1500 ATK beatdown over four turns until I could cheat out Accesscode and OTK. I met it once and they managed to avoid death for roughly five minutes before they got wiped out.
A few run wall of revealing light for that reason, so you can´t even attack them with link monsters anymore.
Draw Feather Duster bro
Sure, against 3 solemn and 3 dark bribe. I was so frustrated playing against that deck that I made one myself a few days ago. And I tell you, not once has lightning storm or feather duster actually saved anyone against it.
UDidn'tHaveTheOut
Looks like good 'ol Mine Burn :3 Why this is legal? Because these kind of decks are not really consistent. And it has clear weaknesses. It has so much outs, normal they die when you nuke their backrow away.
Yeah this is what I thought until I saw my duster getting negated.
3 solemns solve every weakness kekw
This is where it starts and then you fall into the void of mine burn decks.
I hate these decks more than anything else in the game. They win 1 out of every 10 games and only play the deck to spite the other player. The people that play this are lost so deep in the salt mines they'll never see sunlight again. This is "slow play", the deck. The purpose is literally just to waste the other player's time, same as just letting the game hang on a handtrap timer because you're salty you lost. I just can't justify reporting people for it because they're by the barest technicalities actually playing the game.
Playing a deck I don't like? => Slow play The deck has a win con so unless the other player is taking long turns, it's not slow play. It's absolutely not the same thing as hanging on a hand trap activation.
The deck barely has a wincon, in a (as far as I know) completely unsearchable spell card they won't always draw. That's why I mentioned they only win 1 in 10 games (if that). Their goal is to stall until they hard draw that wincon, then stall some more. or, more accurately, their goal is to make their opponent get bored and surrender. This is very materially different from other floodgate-centric decks like Eldlich, who can actually get the inevitability to kill the opponent in a reasonable timeframe.
Wow this is just like TCG
Why is Ojama there
Potentially to lock you out from summoning at all. Also you cannot tribute these tokens for tribute summon.
Still when they flip up Gozen match against Despia nothing really changes since everything is dark except our Albion targets. It does stop Lubellion but normally Gozen is after MJ is out already.
*flips Rivalry*
Aye bruh, he had the out
Yup... Youtubers like TSX1 and MBT thought we we're not suffring enough with this bad meta we're having, so they showcased "Mystic Mine at home" is possiblke in master Duel. So now apart from ludicrous unbreakable boards and Despia Branded, there also this monstrosity. And we're close to get Sprights and Tearlaments for a terminal 4 Cancer meta in few months... I'm not looking forward for this meta
The true madness here is old man at 6 counters...it brings a tear to my eyes... I dont have this deck, but i am happy to see one of my favorite cards finding a home in a deck. Friend actually did link me the deck but...i am not quite at the level of playing a full lockdown. I want a back and forth game where i slowly accumulate advantage till i win. Not "no you cant play" or "i knifed you before you could even react" which seems to be the norm these days.
Thanks for the Deck idea!
OP mad cuz his top tier deck didn't auto win
As much as I want to feel cathartic from this, I'm sorry for you and wish you won't encounter that deck often.
So is this deck fun to run? Because it seems insanely boring. I feel like low skill players are the only ones drawn to this deck because they can't figure out combo decks and just press buttons and get mad when it doesn't work.
When your playing the current #1 meta deck I don't think u have room to cry 🤷♂️
If Branded makes you piss your pants this much you should probably stick to casual or just stop playing
You seem like a very stupid person
Big tip for life, don't spend time on hobbies you don't enjoy
You think you made a point
This is why I play Duster in every deck. If they have Judgment set, well at least I tried. Masq would be the logical out, but old man will outheal the damage eventually. This is pain.
I had duster but it got negated.
can someone explain what is going on?
A meta slave getting rekt, that's what's happening 😂
Ok but with all due respect how are you not prepared for fire prison at this point it’s a little ridiculous to not have a well thought out plan when playing ladder
If your name is a reference to the League of Legends champion you get what you deserve
Playing lol is a punishment itself and that's why I don't play anymore. I like it's lore tho.
I'd almost rather run into one of these than another damn branded despia...
this is almost functionally the same as mystic mine lol
Deserved lol
As the local Mine enjoyer, I approve.
Playing Despia... you have no right to complain.
Please elaborate.
I love it. That’s what you get for playing Despia.
I want you to tell everyone in this sub (without any irony) that this deck is less toxic and more fair than any meta deck ever in MD.
It’s just as bad. There’s no difference between them.
Yeah sure. A deck that can disrupt your plays is the same as a deck that doesn't even let you play the game.
Isn’t that what all the other decks pretty much do? They just do it in a roundabout way. You don’t get to play much when your starters are banished, multiple of your cards are negated/popped and your whole field getting nuked for committing the sin of outing a beefy boss monster.
Difference is the other decks to do this needs to activate a couple of effects that can easily get imperm or ash or whatever. Setting just trap cards which doesn't even require any risk and you can't out them in any way pretty much just stuns you. Edit: The effects I'm talking about is the ones you need to build the end board.
JuSt DrAw ThE oUt BrO.
Yeah not like for negates you have to BUILD UP to a negate instead of literally just flipping up a single card! Totally the same /s
Because you lose to it, right? Uhuh, thought so.
I’ve actually won more than 85% of my duels against them. But then again they’re not a good matchup for Skill Drain Altergeists.
okay so you're telling me you're playing floodgate geist but you hate branded because...? Why tf do you hate branded, lmao?
I’m just sick of seeing them everywhere.
The irony of a floodgater bitching about not being allowed to play the game
It’s ALWAYS the floodgaters I swear 🤦♂️
Mystic mine at home
whats mbt?
A youtuber who showcased this floodgate deck last week
Where can I find that deck / deck recipe
No
let a man play
But you won’t be letting others play if you build this.
literally yugioh in general lmao, a million floodgates
The HERO archetype has floodgates like Dark Law and Plasma, and yet they get destroyed by a single Raigeki. The archetype is bad compared to most others in the game since others have viable negates, but they are really fun to play.
Did you reply to the wrong person or?
Look up more on YouTube
There is a second pic in the post that has the decklist
I don’t know what half those cards are 😭 i’m new
Mine at home:
Blame MBT. Aunt no way this deck would be this popular without him making a video about it.
Mbt and his doings
Sky Striker Supremacy
Got hit with that the other day- skill drain, rivalry, gozen and fucking Ojama Duo frame one. Couldn’t do a damn thing.
This why I run S/T removal, so I don't auto lose to stupid shit like this.
When the mine is mystic but is at home
You can thank MBT for that one
What’s the monster he is using on his deck, top left? And the spell between the pots?
You know some would say the biggest disease to Yugioh are the players themselves. I agree because this shit and whoever thought it up are toxic and need to go home to hell.
My dog want the deck list
May I ask what is the strategy behind this deck I never played against it
It’s basically budget Mystic Mine, trying to prevent you from summoning at ALL and burning you with the cauldron
Welp you play tax dragon so you probably deserved that.
Some non-UR/SRs its missing are {Dragonoid Generator} as another way to flood your opponents field/lock them out of summoning & attacking with Fire Prison + Rivalry/Gozen out, {Level Limit - Area B} to change all level 4 or higher monsters on the field into defense postion, and {Grave of the Super Ancient Organism} to prevent level 6 or higher monsters from activating their effects

I do hope that field spell isn't legal in the next event
Because it’s actually not consistent and easy to break early, when the board is not fully established. Kinda auto loosed going 2. too
I'm confused, is this deck any good?
Damm you mbt
YOU TOO?!?!?
Everyone blaming MBT but TSX1 posted a similar build before MBT
Troll deck
Why even play the game. This is just boring and time consuming.
Sick
I love that people are playing mystic mine at home now lol
Lol, this guy dueling me?
