Wind-up hand loop: Greatness or Epic Fail??

By now I'm sure just about everyone has knowledge of the hand loop possible by this deck. Now for the now big question... Is it gonna hold its own in the current meta tcg side? We know the deck is very good ocg side. But any player from either side can tell you, the metas are quite different. With the TCG have broken exclusives in just about every set, it tends to be more aggro than anything. The OCG is more chill and seems to be better in general. With that said, the hand loop is doing fairly well in the OCG. This could be one of those situations like dark world. Everyone thought because is was doing so well in the OCG that it would come over and just dominate the TCG as well. I can tell you from personally being there at the first YCS it was legal. Everyone was ready for it and there wasn't enough time to find a "groove" if you will to let it do well. It flopped pretty badly at that YCS. I remember playing one and the guy didn't know what he was doing whatsoever. He had the tour guides and ravens. The whole shebang and my TG stun tore him to pieces. The following YCS it did fair wayyy better than the its premier.It also had access to dark smog at that time which I think played a key role in the better results. I think the wind-up hand loop isn't going to do so well at first,but after people learn to play it though, it'll be a force to reckon with.

Thanks for reading.
