Neo Monsters PvP - First 3 Matches with New Team "Gorgo IQ"

Description

Wanted to record my first matches with my new team for safe-keeping, and then shared them since people showed interest.

The team revolves around forcing the opponent to deal with multiple Gorgodrakes using Aurodragon. The start is slow, which is why I supported it with 3 protectors, one of which has Death Revenge just like Gorgodrake. Great to keep my opponent off their game and, when cloned, it adds up!

During the early to mid game my opponent is usually forced to choose between dealing with Gorgodrake's disturbingly fast sweeping or Aurodragon's cloning nonsense, which is a choice with no good answers.

My mid game is more run of the mill poison: Maggatsouh combos, Oakthulhu synergies and Deathgazer shenanigans. Basically imported from my old team, Antistan Poison, with few changes.

Finally, in the late game I tried using the cloned protectors to fuel up some retribution monsters that also provide tons of utility. I'd love to have Arachnadiva to complete this section, but unfortunately no such luck.

I really like this team, I feel it's well built, and unlike my old team has you take many decisions while playing; meaning it's more difficult, but also more fun. This might actually help me become a better player too, which is great since while I consider myself a pretty good team builder, I can't say the same for my skills when playing.

0:00 vs Night Crawler
In this match the team performed wonderfully! The opponent chose to deal with Aurodragon's clones, killing Gorgodrake... but not before it already did some damage. I made a slight mistake towards the end, but all and all a very good first performance for the team!

5:01 vs NML DEMON (Tanbeer)
Starring at a front line Dracorosa, this match did not start too well. Luckily Maggatsuoh and Sherloid came to save the day, and with Aurodragon's support I was able to turn this around and take the match pretty convincingly. Again, I made a couple of mistakes but nothing major.

10:01 vs NMLsilentkiller
My old team used to counter Thlug front lines pretty well so this was my first time actually having to deal with them... and oh boy it shows! Easily one of my worst played matches in some time, starting with that massive mistake in purifying my own team so I could get sleep locked, and finishing with another massive mistake in killing my own Musashoid.
My opponent made some mistakes too, but definitely played better than I did and absolutely deserved that win. Unfortunately for him RNG wasn't on his side.

EDIT: This team got me 12th in the very next PvP season, and while I didn't want to stay up until 3am to use all my tickets, it has shown that it has the potential to get top10! Really feels good to get this far with something original!
