It depends on matchup. Lately I've been having a lot of fun doing Witchcrafter vs Regenesis variants in Genesys, while my favorite duel of all time was Tearlaments Witchcrafter vs Tearlaments Shaddoll.

>Witchcrafter vs Regenesis
This could just be from Genesys throttling them, but the grind game is similar between the both of them if both players are competent with their decks. It's an honest-to-goodness effort for both decks to break the other. A guy at my locals likes to run Dogmatika Regenesis (a little harder without the new Fleurdelis but still doable) while online I get a mix of Kashtira Regenesis and Dogmatika Regenesis. Their end basically just has to manage their recursion and removal to keep their gears in motion, for my end it's about finding footing and prioritizing putting Haine on the field to absorb (or invalidate) targeted effects. Really good back-and-forth when things go right.

>TearWitch vs TearShad
This one happened in a sim and it was a 45 minute nightmare duel (duel, singular)(with all the shuffling and chaining handled by a machine). This was around the time that the Ishizu millers were still legal at 1 copy. The other guy's deck and gameplan was Tearlaments plus Shaddoll, whereas mine was purely a Witchcrafter grindset where the Tearlaments/Ishizu stuff was strictly used to mill my cards and get one or two bodies on the field for link plays. They also used fusion substitutes like Grapha and Millennium-Eyes, that involved abusing the Damage Step so that they couldn't use those interrupts. I got really lucky on their opening play because they put Winda in front of Anima's zone-- if not for that, I would have lost.

The last play ended with them fusing into Mudragon and then overlaying into Bagooska. I linked into Accesscode Talker and removed both itself and Bagooska with its effect, revived my board and proceeded to swing for lethal. Really fucking satisfying duel from start to finish.

Very likely, yes.

They could've had an organic Time Wizard-like system if they just called the post-Synchro era Speed Duel 2 or some shit, did the same shit when you get to the Xyz/Pend/Link animes and turned the game into Duel Links in print instead of nostalgiabait: the product.

Detoxed Mine
>[Field Spell]
During the Standby Phase, place 1 face-up Spell/Trap Card you control in your banishment (this is NOT treated as banishing the card). Neither player can activate monster effects, also, negate the effects of monsters you control. Any Battle Damage you take is halved, also, any Battle Damage your opponent takes is doubled. You can only activate 1 "Detoxed Mine" per turn.

>place 1 face-up Spell/Trap Card you control in your banishment (this is NOT treated as banishing the card).
I was being cheeky with this to get around gamestates where you are not allowed to banish cards, so the maintenance cost is always upheld.

The idea is to have it in such a state that you need actual setup for it to work. """"Banishing"""" face-up S/Ts during each Standby Phase means that the card will naturally shut itself off if you activated it haphazardly with nothing to pay its maintenance cost with, which means that your opponent can't just activate it when they're losing to give themselves extra turns to survive, and anything less than a dedicated Stun strategy couldn't keep the card online indefinitely. In return, the effect to prevent effect activations is always online, and while you can still get beaten to death by your opponent's monster, it happens a hell of a lot slower.

It would still be an evil and toxic card, but it would be substantially less evil and less toxic than the original.

>>97040962
In hindsight,
>Banish 1 face-up Spell/Trap Card you control. If you cannot, place this card on the bottom of your deck
Would've probably been a cleaner way of doing that. It would banish itself naturally, but if something were to prevent that, it flings itself off of the field.

Technically there's Rescue ferret where you make a link, usually Skull Dread because it can summon Ferret from hand and cycles a bunch of cards, with some down arrows and then you link off that link monster [and others if needed] to make Zealantis to "flicker" (Im going to assume you're the new person from MTG still) the entire board and then Ferret's monsters will come back not negated. It's a huge amount of setup and not always certain to work but that's likely the best you're getting as a generic one. There's a few archetypes that have a Rescue rabbit but they aren't common because Ash on that effect is a death sentence.

https://ygoprodeck.com/tournaments/top-archetypes/

Here's a website with the top archetypes. The answer is Yes, in that Mitsurugi Yummy is basically the best deck in the format and Mitsurugi itself is being splashed into everything.

>>97043535
Crimson Dragon bounces itself, not an opponent's monster. The way it works is
>Target any Synchro monster on the field
>Return Crimson Dragon to the Extra Deck
>Special Summon a Synchro Monster from your Extra Deck with the same level as the targeted monster
Because the Special Summon is treated as a Synchro Summon, it of course triggers any effects that activate when the monster would have been Synchro Summoned. Additionally, it allows you to revive the monster from your GY or banishment if it is destroyed/banished.

To answer your initial question; You need a legal target to activate Crimson Dragon's effect.

The fact that they crank out support for old archetypes is really cool, but it really does seem like you are fucked and left in the dust if you don't use current engines to carry old archetypes against modern archetype releases. I remember back in 2018 prior to it getting limited using Hornet Drones a ton to just get my old decks compatible for link summoning, but now it seems if you want to run an old archetype based around something like fiends for instance you need to run something like fiendsmith alonside it to even be remotely viable in the present. Even a lot of the archetype support I see is esentially boss monster replacements, so you end up running a deck for an old archetype where most of the bones is modern releases and very little of the original DNA.

>>97044404
so they have shota as well now?

>>97044433
>so you end up running a deck for an old archetype where most of the bones is modern releases and very little of the original DNA.
How exactly are you expecting an archetype to evolve if it's just trying to make the same old cards work? Either they get new support that gives them new starters/extenders/bosses to prop up a handful of the old ones while the new strategies take precedence, or they're left in the dust and nobody except for people begging for trickles of support ever touch them. I don't see any reason to complain about it, given that Konami is pretty good about keeping the spirit of the old decks in mind whenever they inject new support into them (Dragon Ruler for instance, or Unchained, Evil HERO folding more into the heroslop builds, etc). It's only in more extreme cases like Gate Guardian or Yubel where the new strategies completely overtake the old ones, since the old ones were either absolute dogwater or just didn't exist in the first place.

It varies deck to deck, some decks (usually weaker ones) are very linear and fold to a single interaction as you say. More competent decks are more modular, you have multiple routes to the same endboard or different bosses to end on depending on the matchup.
Going second in yugioh is really disadvantaged so you kind of need to play cards that can stop your opponent from setting up their full board uninterrupted. What this means is that when you go first you are most likely not going to be able to just go through the motions of the combo you learnt absent-mindedly, your opponent is going to interrupt you and at the worst possible time they can so a real skill in Yugioh is either pushing through that interruption to finish your combo as planned or to pivot your lines to end on something despite your effects being negated. A mark of a good player is how well they can do this and the sign of a poor player is someone who plays on auto-pilot and folds to any pushback from their opponent. Combos aren't "hard" when you are just practicing at home but in a tournament situation under pressure and with suboptimal hands they can be difficult.
And then on the other hand you have decks like Tenpai which are totally braindead to play. So-called helmet decks which I'm sure you're familiar with if you play any other TCG.
Also the deck you mention Memento, isn't really the kind of deck that loses to one negate (unless it opens really poorly), the strength of that deck is that it has many ways to get to it's endboard and it is very easy for it to play through or ignore your opponent's handtraps.

There are also some decks (Odion, Eldlich, Regenesis, Dogmatika, Kashtira) that rely less on combos and more on efficient use of cards that are weaker than an average combo endboard piece, but easier to both get out and recur as the game goes on, where the skill instead comes from having to make the most of a weaker endboard going first or use your mid-power cards to squeeze in under a usually-stronger endboard going second.

Some sex for the road.

>>97045438
>I assume in this example one effect negeate ruins the entire thing, so you need to know how to solve it to not end up with a terrible board?
Memento has a bit of redundancy with its combos where it can eat one or two interrupts and still end on a decent board. There's a couple of chokepoints (namely Tatsunootoshigo, really big one) where you can guarantee that your opponent doesn't fullcombo, but they'll still end off on a halfway-decent board most of the time.

The main appeal of archetypes is that they work out-of-the-box with oneanother and typically have their own distinct flavor that sets them apart from other cards. A lot of archetypes will homogenize around comboslop patterns, but there's just as many decks that strongly express their own archetype's flavor above all else. Your Mikankos, Sky Strikers, Hecahands, Enneacrafts, and Witchcrafters of the world. Easy to forget about those if you only follow the meta, and easy to overlook as an outsider looking in.

>>97046801
NTA; I normally play engineslop midrange piles, and have done for over a decade, since at least HAT format. But Mikanko looks fun to mess with.

I'm something of an oldschool player. I don't hate extra deck stuff, and I actually enjoy playing some decks that center around being able to consistently spit cards out of it to meet a situation (like Gem-Knights). But I will admit that I prefer my decks to focus on exactly one type of extra deck summoning, or to actually be main deck-centric.

Aside from the likes of Monarchs, are there any decks that focus on main deck play that are viable to play nowadays? I'm not looking for top meta stuff, just decks that don't crumble apart in seconds from being too slow our too outdated.

>>97046646
>anal sex with giving birth
My penis can only get so erect, anon!

>>97047019
You're going to have to ask yourself what "viable" means. Do you mean does the deck FUNCTION, can it do its thing without feeling like you're jumping from hoops, is it satisfying to play? Then yes. From stuff that skips the Extra entirely (mostly control/stun like Umi or Labrynth) to stuff that has a single boss in the Extra you lean on but otherwise stick to the maindeck (Millennium) to stuff that's built around rituals so you technically never need to even touch the extra deck but probably should for the utility (Voiceless Voice, most ritual stuff). If you mean "competitively viable" then no. The fundamental problem with maindeck stuff is that to get the cards out of the deck you open yourself up to interruption. Ash, Droll, etc. Extra deck centered playstyles meanwhile only fold to exactly Fuwalos and Maxx C.

>>97045438
At its highest level of play, Yugioh is a game about building an end board while the other opponent is constantly trying to throw your cards off the table. Your deck typically has a basic flowchart to make that endboard (play X that searches Y that searches Z), but it doesn't account for your opponent doing something (play X but opponent negates it so it can't search Y). So it's your job to cram in as many cards as possible that let you pivot to alternate routes (play X but opponent negates it so you play A then link X and A into B) to hopefully still end on an impressive endboard. "Difficulty" comes from keeping in mind all potential combo routes at all times, using prior knowledge to determine what interruption your opponent will use, and building your combo in the first place to avoid major turn-ending interruption (no chokepoint, gets to a negate within 5 summons, only adds from the main deck once, etc). The fact this mostly involves using newer cards that were designed specifically to do this isn't a coincidence. Modern decks are often derided as "engine slop" because they're just the modern version of goodstuff decks.

Meanwhile if you actually play with friends (or at least someone you can trust won't put the expensive/formerly-expensive "I win the game if I play this" cards in their deck), Yugioh is a game about picking your favorite archetype and trying to pilot it against archetypes. There's typically more focus on actually using your archetype cards, and games can often boil down to "oh welp my opponent's archetype is from 10 years ago so even though I'm tying both my hands behind my back he can't do shit to my literal petdeck".

Konami saw that Pokémon ended up securing a bunch of sales from Cardass machines, and saw I think it was baseball and other cards were doing the same thing successfully as this allowed for distribution on a wider scale than LGSes and box stores weren't consistently down with card games. However, Pokémon sized ones (which have the same card size as MTG) required some special machines. However, the smaller sized ones used for other cards were already in general use, so they designed around that.

The mass success caused a bunch of other JP card games to follow Konami's lead, thus creating the "Japanese size" card.

Which one of these option would net me a better deck to play at locals? Are there some other options that might be better for the price I'm willing to spend on this game as a newbie?

>>97048402
Branded will give you the most options for builds and tutorials, while Blue Eyes goes for nostalgia and a bit stronger/consistent of a deck when its built at its best.

The Legendary 5Ds decks are mostly useful for their staples, as the 1x Fuwalos, 1x Purulia, and 1x Meowls alone would cost $30 to buy as singles, and you are getting a good chunk of staples on top of those.

Is Dragon Master Magia actually worth the cost? I want to run it on my Pure Blue Eyes deck, but having to dedicate a spot to BE Chaos Max is the brickiest of bricks.

>>97048402
Pure Blue Eyes is a great deck and you really don't need much to upgrade it, beyond creating an a tual functional sidedeck. Unfortunately it is a bit of a noob trap due to modern Blue Eyes being difficult to effectively pilot.

>>97048824
It ain't. The only tops it ever got were in 2 OCG events of like 60 people and it won neither of them. Especially since it runs like $35 a copy on TCGPlayer while most of the Extra Deck cards of Primite Blue-Eyes don't even crack fifty cents on the same site a lot of the time, and it's hard to find exceptions that crack a dollar.

>>97048824
IMHO, yes. I only play casually and I have never once got tired of summoning him. My absolute favourite boss monster, hands down. If you're playing competitively, I would imagine that the cards expended in order to summon him would be too high a cost when there are decks that can set up a similar number of negates off a single card.

>>97048824
Its really only viable in heavy mill piles and even then you'd probably rather your swampking/necrofusion/illusion of chaos be card that actually do shit.

>>97048402
The new Branded deck. The 5Ds decks have some really strong staples (particularly the Charmies but others as well), but The Fallen & The Virtuous comes with everything you need to make a Branded/Bystial deck. It's also moderately easy to pilot while also being able to fart out some pretty nasty monsters in the process.

Dragoon's destruction effect is non-targeting so even if the Horus monsters are under Qef's targeting protection you can still destroy them.
The Horus monsters are once per turn per effect so if all their effects have already go off you don't risk anything by popping cards.
If The True Sun God is on the field that stops special summoned monsters of both players from attacking the turn they're summoned so even if Imesty and Duamutef can come back the next turn using Walls they can't crash or attack over Dragoon.
If you don't set that monster that was the last card in hand Dragoon has an omni-negate.
If Dragoon is the only monster on your side of the field your opponent can't Lava Golem it.

How are you supposed to actually learn this game by playing in person? The knowledge of metagame is absolutely insane. Do you just have to no-life online simulators to actually get into this game as a complete noob? It is so hard for me to know what the problematic effects are with each deck as a beginner.

>>97050375
All it takes is having a friend or someone at locals that plays the game that's open to showing you the ropes. Actually watching people play the game also helps immensely, which for all of Master Duel's faults is one thing it's good for. One of the things that new players don't do is watch how the game is actually played, and one thing that bad teachers do is neglect to do that alongside them.

I've given this such long-winded speech in prior threads. To make a long story short, I teach people how to play the game, and I do it with Virtual World. Other decks can do what it does, but it covers enough bases that I just stick with that. You just need to walk them through the default game mechanics, show off some plays while teaching them so they get an idea of how things work when they're in motion, then reinforce that in some mock duels where you let them take the wheel.

One of the things I'll also drill into them early on is how PRIORITY works. Not TIMING, but PRIORITY. Timing doesn't make any goddamn sense if you don't have a basic grasp on how priority functions, but nobody in the freaking world will bring it up when they're teaching a new player how the game works.

>>97050337
>If King's Sarc is not on the field Horus monsters do NOT have non-targeting protection.
Correct, King's Sarc is the thing that says Horus monsters can't be destroyed by effects that do not target them.
>Dragoon's destruction effect is non-targeting so even if the Horus monsters are under Qef's targeting protection you can still destroy them.
Correct
>The Horus monsters are once per turn per effect so if all their effects have already go off you don't risk anything by popping cards.
Correct
>If The True Sun God is on the field that stops special summoned monsters of both players from attacking the turn they're summoned so even if Imesty and Duamutef can come back the next turn using Walls they can't crash or attack over Dragoon.
Correct, also Walls does not copy the effect of King's Sarc it only copies the name.
>If you don't set that monster that was the last card in hand Dragoon has an omni-negate.
Correct, Dragoon needs a card in hand to use his negate
>If Dragoon is the only monster on your side of the field your opponent can't Lava Golem it.
Correct

>>97050375
Being competitive and being competent at just playing the game are two very different levels of skill. However I will acknowledge that the only real way to play in tournaments is competitive which is why it can feel like you're expected to be at a competitive level in order to play.
Metagame knowledge is something you gather over time because it is constantly changing. Even pro players have to relearn/update it every format.
>It is so hard for me to know what the problematic effects are
You have to learn to do an initial scan read of things. Looking for words like negate, destroy, add to hand, special summon, opponent, cannot, if this card is..., and some others well help you do an initial scan of card text for red flags. Yes it's important to read the entire effect, but being able to scan for text is the same as identifying keywords. New players often make the mistake that they need to digest every single word on a card the opponent plays rather than being able to identify those keywords and then making a generalized determination of what role the card has in their deck.
I see this scenario all the time with new players
>Timmy has Ash in hand
>You play a monster
>Timmy asks to read the card to see if he can ash it
>Timmy is very dumb and rather than scan for the words that he needs to be looking for instead reads the entire card, only to determine that he cannot ash it
>Timmy is now exhausted from creating his own problem when all he had to do was scan card text for the word "deck" because those are the only cards that Ash can interact with, and "special summon/add to hand" to identify function red flags.

>>97049593
I mean if I were Judai, I’d do everything I could to defend her

So barring full CaC territory, what's an effect you feel your favorite deck could desperately use or that would make it more interesting to play? The kind of thing that would really tie it all together thematically and in gameplay?
Sure, every deck would love to have a Circular-style card that gives you advantage out the ass, but I'm thinking of things a little more novel than that. Feel free to think of effects that break the mold a little bit more, like the Darkness cards in GX or the anime-original combination pieces of the Meklords in 5Ds.

Would you try other games if they use the yugioh IP?
or how you use the cards is the important part of the brand?

>>97051737
I enjoyed the Yugioh HeroClix and Dice Masters sets, and played an OC Gishki in a D&D campaign once (premise being that the party were all isekaied from different fantasy worlds to Sigil to settle some issues without anyone tethered to any of the Planes involved).

>>97050375
Getting up that learning cliff is one of the harder things to do for the game, and resources to do so are unfortunately hard to find. The easiest to access ones produced by Konami only ever really cover the absolute basics (or activelyconfuse you with the 2 player starter), while having a friend teach you is an unfortunately hard thing to come across.

Maybe next thread the TQ should be about tutorials people have found that are good. Compile them into a pastebin for the OP.

>>97050375

You'd have to be THE dumbest fucking nigger on earth for you to not instantly grasp the game, if you put even a bit of effort into learning it. And this is considering that at least 40% of the playerbase worldwide is comprised of literal niggers.

>>97050545
One came before the other FAG

>>97050375
every time I try to learn the game, I always get with the learning curve being huge.

I think most of the difference with other card games is, because how combo heavy everything is. you have to know what every single card in your deck does even when starting turn one.
in other card games you just, look at your hand, do 1 or 2 things, and your oponent goes, and from there you start understanding the game rules and you learn stuff.
here that is obsolete and the game is not played like that anymore. so you have to learn to pilot the deck before you learn how to play i think.

Is nothing wrong if that is how the game is designed to be played, but dont be suprised when players get stuff wrong.

The rule that suprise me is how some tutors, if you dont have a legal target in the deck, you pretty much did an illegal move, you have to know if every card is avaible or you are cheating.

You just revert the gamestate if you try to tutor something that isn't in your deck at activation of the effect. You'll also get penalized if it's a sanctioned event, but otherwise it's just a thing that happens.

Droplet vs DRNM?

>>97055642
If you can recoup the card advantage then always Droplet. The atk reduction and you can still do damage lets you still close the game, you can set it as a disruption making it more than a board breaker, and you can even use it to dodge targeted negation sometimes. The card is fantastic.

The name is kinda poorly translated, but it wasn't due to it being a troonslation, japanese puns just don't work in murrican. Haru urara is the name of the 5head loli and it's a reference to some jap tale about a dog and a cherry tree.

What is the best way to play yugioh for casuals?

>>97056866
I will try to spare you a huge wall of text that typically accompanies that kind of front-loaded question

>Me and my friends want to play the game. We have 0 experience with it
Pick up a Speed Duel box. It is an extremely simplified version of the game that shouldn't be too hard to follow.
>Nonono, I want to play the REAL game with my friends, casually. Also, we have 0 experience with it.
Read the manual and look up basic tutorials on the game because there's a lot of mechanics that make it harder to pick up than other card games. After that, download one of the digital sims in the OP, or Master Duel if you want to tolerate gacha.

>https://ygoprodeck.com/tournaments/top-archetypes/
This website has decklists. I linked to the top archetypes by tournament rep and they aren't good for casual players, but they will give you an idea of what's good.

>Me and my friends want to play the game. We have some experience with it but can't keep up with the current meta.

>>97056903

The little girl is the spirit of a dog that brings its owner luck both in life and afterwards.

The dog spirit appears to its owner in a dream and tells him to sprinkle ashes on cherry trees. This causes them to blossom, which impresses the local lord enough that he gives the owner many gifts.

>>97056962
Oh and this happened during the spring

>>97056866
To add a bit on where to play. Personal level hosted tournaments or games. Here on 4chan, discords, etc.
"casual" matchmaking in many digital clients is flooded with people practicing meta decks alongside people playing whatever they want. Casual is such a broad term because casual ranges from anime character LARP decks to wannabe comp players that have a negative rank.
Locals is about the same as that but with a slightly higher standard because the mentality is that if you're going to spend money on the game you want it to be worth your money.

Anons, you wouldn't fuck your dog, right?

>casual matchmaking in many digital clients

>>Speed Duel
>It didn't become popular, did it?
It did not. In fact it was discontinued (or at least put on an indefinite hiatus if you're on hopeium). The products are still mostly-cheap though and good for absolute beginners, which you are not.

>>Genesys
>Is it better than advanced? It's fine as long as there is a back and forth, and isn't go first equals 5 minute turn to win
https://www.yugioh-card.com/en/genesys/

It is a no-banlist format that uses a point system in its place, similar to DP systems from the older videogames if you played those. It doesn't feature pendulum monsters, link monsters, or the extra monster zone, but does allow you to use all modern cards (besides pendulum and link monsters). A lack of Pend/Link monsters doesn't knock the power down, so much as the fact that you can't mash 5 engines together does.

Make no mistake. It's a relatively-lower power format, but that's relative to the current format. It's a place where one's petdecks can thrive, but they're still gonna get sized up against other potentially-more-competent builds.

They also do point updates once every month (or two since this one's coming in december) and accompany them with blogposts explaining the changes. It's just nice to have that to get an idea of what they want to do with the format.

>>97056954
>>97057036
Also,
>(handtraps and negate after negate)
Handtraps still exist in Genesys and you're just gonna have to deal with them, but the common ones take a backseat to stuff like d.d.crow and skull meister (which have 0 points). The point system kind of dissuades people from running them, so the format is more engine-focused.

Also, the game shifted away from interruption-through-negation a few years ago. You'll still see a bunch of interactions in a single turn in both Genesys and Advanced.

>>97057112
The point system does more than you'd think it would to wrangle the game. Common handtraps like Nibiru are 5 points per copy, but stuff like Ash Blossom (the type of handtrap you're complaining about) is worth 15 per copy. Sidedeck contributes to that count as well, so you can't just haphazardly shove all of the non-engine interruption into your deck that you want and expect your normal engine to just work (especially if said engine has points allocated towards its cards). Some decks can afford to spend nearly half their default point cap total on 3 copies of Ash Blossom, but many cannot, and you're a hell of a lot less likely to see cards like it in the format.

One thing you might not pick up on when viewing Genesys duels as someone that put the game down for a while is the variety of decks in the format. I've seen some people complain about the game being unbalanced while they're playing out a Drytron v. Generaider duel, or while they're dueling against a friggin Galaxy-Eyes or Witchcrafter deck. Those words might not mean a lot to you, but those decks never see play these days because they're either old or bad (if not both). There is a *lot* more breathing room to run what you want, with the caveat that you still need to build competently if you don't want to get embarrassed.

>>97057104
They're always treated as an existing card at all times, so you can only run 1 of each if you're putting all 3 of them in your deck. Same rules that apply to "Umi" cards (A Legendary Ocean, Magellanica, Pacifis, etc) and the new Fallen of Albaz card.

I faced Ishizu Fluffal Artmage Gem-Knights at Genesys locals. It's not just dead decks and decks that never had a chance to shine - the point system is encouraging mixtures that never would've happened in Advanced.

If you were to go off of this cut for instance, you have stuff like Mikanko, Super Quant, and Goblin Biker in the running. The common thread among those is that they either came out in the last 5 years or got support some time within that same timeframe. I was also ignoring the elephant in the room that is Nekroz Generaider, which is some silly shit you'd never expect to see getting top cut.

A rule I like to follow when assessing decks is that if they came out after the start of 2019, or have gotten direct or indirect support since then, it's a playable deck at least, and potentially viable at most. I personally run Witchcrafter in the format and it just works, because with the small support it got in the form of Lacrima of Light, it's just a really competent deck with a lot of redundancy and protection.

>>97057154
Depends if they choose actually good cards or not. On one hand I like having the fun treatments for lots of archetypes but on the other I want to see it do well because the concept is good.
I fully expect them to do the most normie, boomer bait, DM era shit out the gate though. I only hope the recent 5Ds focus they've got going to extends to their launch so we get literally anything but DM to start.

uhh i don't care

>>97057540
Generally speaking, yeah. The point system basically serves to make the old justification for handtraps and other powerful generic cards (they help weaker decks keep up with stronger decks!) actually hold true, as most of the stronger decks can't afford to spend points on nonengine.

>>97057540
"Viable" is tournament-viable and "Playable" means that the deck is competent enough that you can comfortably get both wins and losses against a wide range of decks. A Viable deck is a Playable deck, but a Playable deck is not always a Viable deck. Important distinction to make.

>And how the fuck he ritual summons without the spells?
The Nekroz Ritual monsters don't get summoned. Cyberse Sage gets summoned by the effects of Code Igniter, who is summoned using Emilia and Avance. It's part of a long combo line where you start at Emilia+Avance, bridge into World Chalice using Cyberse Sage(Tuner, not listed as such on the website for some reason), then either go into Enterblathnir for handrips or into Generaider for their standard plays. Brionac and Catastor come into play because Brionac searches Emilia who thereafter gets to summon herself, and Catastor can revive either Emilia or Avance.

If you wanted to, you could summon the Nekroz rituals with Code Igniter's effect of course.

The structure of Genesys events is that there are 16 person single elimination tournaments where the 1st and 2nd place winners go on to the Invitational. One of the most recent Konami blogs detailing a post event wrapup indicated that for the Invitational that across the 64 people who qualified, 38 different archetypes were being run, with the most represented one only having like 6 decks.

Anything else I should nab for support? Is it worth it getting some BE alternative ultimate for the extra deck since those are apparently in no reprint hell but still pretty cheap?

Anon, one more thing, is this deck >>97058160 playable or viable in Genesys?

>>97058539

I mean let's be real the effect of pot of greed is you gain two more cards than you drew in the first place.

Meanwhile if you buy and play straight out of the box a single blue eyes structure deck, let alone some high end meta abomination made by sweaty tourney guys, you can have one Sage With Eyes of Blue in your opening hand and, just from that, end the turn with like 5 cards in play and 6 in the graveyard, 3 or 4 of which have graveyard effects effectively making them in play as well. And still have three or four cards in hand.

Everyone knows why pot of greed is powerful in a game where you don't need to pay a resource tax to play it, but let's not pretend in-archetype cards can't pull off equal or worse bullshit. Taking three pot of greed in genesys means not taking any more exciting banned cards.

In theory, I like Xyz the most. In practice, I enjoy messing around with Synchros the most.

>>97058593
I don't see Argostar played often in Genesys, but you probably could if you went with an Argostar/Odion build that leans aggressively into the trap monster angle.

>>97058866
It's not OPT and you can make your own monster's ATK become 0 by your own card effect pretty easily.

So when will meta change again? I don't want to invest in some deck that will be outdated weeks after I complete it, learnt my lesson with blue eyes.

>>97048402
Neither. You better buy singles to build on of the actual top meta decks like yummy or dracotail otherwise you are wasting your money on some shit deck that will win once every blue moon. I honestly rather spend $500 on a deck that will pay for itself after a while from prizes rather than a poorfag $100 list that won't return a single cent in its lifetime.

>>97059281
This. If you're not playing to win, why are you even playing?

>>97059293
To inflate the prize pool for the actual winners like a cuck I guess.

Nearly done with this shit arc i think, they got here in episode 44, i'm on episode 96 and yuya still hasn't dueled jack. I've heard the series sinks even lower after this, but i'm just fucking tired of 5D's wank so a change of scenery is what i need.

The dark times are almost over. Arc-V doesn't get much better afterwards, but the Synchro arc is easily the lowest point in the series, if not the entire fucking franchise as a whole. And don't let the coping losers try to trick you into thinking that DSoD's production somehow caused the Synchro arc. Katsumi Ono just wanted to wank off 5Ds as much as possible. It's his favorite fucking thing in the world, so much so that he made an entire anime about Junk Warrior being a beautiful woman with a large ass (Symphogear)

>>97059469

How are you consistently setting up both the trap and a way to reduce your own monster's atk turn zero? All of that just to draw some random cards during opponents turn. Many decks already have ways to accomplish similar things and they either suck or don't bother doing it (Abyss Actors drawing 5 with opening ceremony, Dinomorphia drawing 3 with hope for escape come to mind).

You should go do that.
The anime isn't as daunting as it seems because a good chunk of every series has easily-skippable filler.
I watched all of 5DS, GX, read 38 volumes of the first manga, 8 volumes of GX manga, and now I'm going though the OCG Stories manga all in the span of a few months. It's a fun time.

>what support should I buy?
BE really wants a supplemental engine with it like Invoked or Primite. Primite is better but what you prefer and want to spend is your call.
>should I buy BE alt. ulti. dragon?
Unless something has changed in the last week nobody really plays BE alt. ulti. dragon in a completely serious build, so generally speaking no. The deck more focuses on synchro summoning now rather than fusion because the cards are simply better and more relevant to how the game actually works. The BE fusions besides Tyrant are mostly Timmy bait, run them if you want to but know that they are first on the chopping block. Speaking of knowing when to cut off things, knowing when you've outgrown the deck is important. Eventually you're going to want something out of the deck that it simply can't provide like consistency, theme, etc. There is an entire game outside of just BE.
>sleeves
Dragonshields are fine in most cases and you can find them everywhere. Katanas seems to be a popular second choice for most. Avoid ultrapro unless you want cheap binder fodder sleeves.
YGO cards are "small"/JP size at 86x59mm.
Double sleeves are entirely optional and follow a similar sizing labels as before. If you decide to do it your entire deck must all be double sleeved and one of the sleeves needs to be completely clear. Inner and outer double sleeves both exist but most prefer inners.
You're allowed to use 2 seperate colors of sleeves for your main and extra deck for easy seperation.
A quick note on brand terms overlapping since you asked. Matte/Gloss refers to the back (color side) for dragonshields and matte/gloss refers to the fronts (clear side) for other brands, it's dumb but not our call. Most brands have matte backs which is what you're looking for.

>>97060208
Gloss backs are so shit, dunno why anyone would go with that.

Crimson Dragon's tag effect being treated as Synchro was a pretty clear mistake. Why don't they erata?

>>97060271
In what way was it a mistake? They banned the only truly problematic target for it (King Calamity) and only really works in a deck where you're able to swarm the field with synchro monsters, including very specifically level 12 synchros. BEWD can bring out Sifr to protect from destruction effects and some specific engines are able to bring out another monster on quick effect. Those decks would probably be able to bring them out without Crimson Dragon's help, too.

>Why don't they erat(t)a?
Because there are thousands of copies of it in-print and there's no good reason to do a functional errata for it.

>>97060271
Because erratas are a bad practice. It requires us to get a reprint of the card in an affordable rarity if you intend to play it still. (see the firewall dragon and summon sorc issues) and if we have a historic format then you have to deal with erattas giving inconsistent gameplay (see time wizard/time machine issues).
They also hardly do erratas anymore, expecting them is kind of a newfag expectation.

>>97060396
Does Sifr stop your own synchros from exploding if they were tagged in with Spirit Dragon effect?

What's a good brat coded deck I can play?

>>97060487
No, it just needs to be on the field. But its base materials are 1 Tuner Synchro Monster and 2+ non-Tuner Synchro Monsters, so it's more practical to cheat it out with Crimson Dragon. It's an OPT negate and OPT destruction protection for your cards, but that's far from the worst thing in the world, and not something that every deck can bring out since you need to be able to spam Level 12 synchros. That isn't the tallest of orders these days, but it's still tall enough to filter most decks from doing it.

>>97060487
>>97060675
Oh sorry, I misread that. Brain auto-corrected "Spirit Dragon" to "Crimson Dragon".

Yes, it does stop them from exploding. That's why BEWD uses it.

>>97060666
Live Twin is the most brat-coded deck, but it's not really viable in any format.

Is nurse burn the best burn deck?

>>97061031
No. If you're including OCG archetypes, Enneacraft is the undisputed best burn deck in the game. If not, you can attribute that to any deck that's capable of performing Catapult Turtle FTKs in the TCG, which generally speaking will be Rank 8 spam decks. Horus FTK has a pretty braindead combo that can semi-consistently FTK if you bait out interruption at the right times, and Gimmick Puppet is similarly strong but has a gameplan outside of burning your opponent to death.

>>97061031
Of all time? Likely trickstar or gimmick puppet FTK.
Currently? Gem knight or the soon upcoming ennacraft.
Gonna warn you though, burn decks almost always get killed by the ban list if you're looking for deck recs. FTKs and large burn are something konami considers a big no-no.

Here's a comprehensive list of cards that are affected by Mystical Refpanel.

>Other Information

>As mentioned earlier, the cards listed above have the same basic effects (Life Point changes, drawing, etc.), but if you’re wondering why certain cards aren’t listed that you feel should be, these are things that prevent a card from interacting with it.

● Spells that affect both players, such as Upstart Goblin or Card of Demise.
● Spells that target a card, Special Summon monsters, or affect specific cards, such as Burning Draw or Raigeki.
● Spells that search a card from your Deck or send a card from your Deck to the Graveyard, such as Reinforcement of the Army or Foolish Burial.
● Spells that do not apply any effects when they resolve, such as Super Rejuvenation or Frozen Rose.
● Any Continuous, Field, Equip, or Ritual Spell, any Spell effect, or the activation of a Pendulum Monster as a Spell.
● Mystical Refpanel cannot be activated during the Damage Step, so it cannot be used against Spells such as Sebek’s Blessing or the drawing effect of Crusadia Testament.

Does Blue Eyes have a good match-up against Sky Strikers, or are all the Striker players on Master Duel just extremely shit. I cannot lose to this deck, even going second.

>>97061893
Ace=Zero and Lemnisgate are in so yeah, the people you're playing against just suck donkeyballs. Before those cards you would need to grind more to tear down a BEWD board since True Light protects half their monsters (they become "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" on the field) and they have multiple ways to protect from an Afterburners blitz. Post-Ace they can bust through your board a hell of a lot more easily, and with Lemnis they can just non-targeting shuffle your cards.

There's also this one "fallen of argyros" dude that roams the earth looking for a purpose, he's made out of the remains of alba loz and the sprights, and in the latest card that features him we're shown that he just killed all the therions for some unknown reason.

Hardleg used to be pretty good but not a fan of his current stuff because it's the same format as many others now. His chaos draft series was good and it's quite the backlog to watch.
MBT is the only one trying new stuff ever that is tolerable, but he's bringing Farfa in more and I can't stand the guy. If you can stand Farfa's retardation then it's good. His Pitch Deck series was genuinely some of the most fun content the sphere has made but he killed it after only about 5 eps because it wasn't doing numbers or something, it also didn't have Farfa which was great.
The couple of pro players channels are fine if you're looking for comp insight but usually suck for fun entertainment because they bounce off their viewers too much and shocker they're all retards.
RATA is a classic but they hardly ever upload. Counter cast is in the same boat, good stuff but only makes maybe 1 video a year.

It's certainly become hard to find something decent to watch now because they are all doing the exact same stuff or they're all collabing and need to keep things "brand safe" because one of them is associated with konami. There's a bunch of smaller creators but they have technical issues like shit audio that turns me off of the video.

When people say they hate floodgates, what do you think they mean?
How strong or weak of a gate?

>>97067368
The game is just too fast for floodgates. No one cares with some guy shows up with stunshit that runs 30 floodgates because that deck is shit. The problem is when a competent deck runs floodgates. They set up their board of however many interruptions, and then set floodgates. I lost round 1 of a regional because my opponent opened full combo, Dimensional Barrier and Rivalry. The game ended when he flipped Barrier. I couldn't anything under it and would have been OTK'd on the next turn.

>>97067368
Every one of the most hated floodgates have the common factors that they do not need setup and completely lock your opponent out of playing the game, with zero setup. Nobody complains about Umi Stun until they get beaten by it, because Umi Stun still gives you openings to play the game after their setup is live. Plenty of people complain about Rivalry/Gozen/TCBOO and Skill Drain/Imperial Order/Imperial Iron Walls since they just invalidate entire strategies for the meager cost of flipping a card and paying a little bit of an expendable resource.

>>97067368
>Why
Similar to what the other anon said, activating them before one person even has the chance to address them leads to non games. Or you do have the tools to address them and then it's a non game for the opponent as you now effectively blow them out. It's a shit gameplay experience for someone and that sucks. Even a very inexperienced player can recognize "So I basically can't play now? This sucks."
There's also the issue of konami generally limiting or banning the tools to deal with these cards such as red reboot, heavy storm, lightning storm, giant trunade, etc.
>How weak or strong
Usually you deck build around the floodgate so that way it doesn't affect you. Or you just don't give a fuck because you got to set up your board and then activate it after the fact when it doesn't matter anymore like the other guy said too.
Generally speaking floodgates that directly or effectively remove a function of the game are considered universally strong.

Yes. Priority is passed back-and-forth for Spell Speed 2 effects while constructing a chain. This process repeats until there are no more effects to be added to the chain.

>Swamp Deity is summoned. You can negate 1 card's effect on the field.
>Swamp Deity is summoned. You can negate 2 cards' effect on the field.
>Apophis the Serpent is summoned. You can Set a third copy of Swamp Deity, and activate it this turn.

In the next chain
>Anguish Pattern's effect to destroy 1 card on the field triggered 3 times, as it was the first Trap Monster on the field and you summoned 3 Trap Monsters
>As the Turn Player, you have priority to activate all 3 of these effects before passing priority back to your opponent

(cont.)
Because for Spell Speed 1 effects, Simultaneous Effects Go On Chain (SEGOC) before passing priority.
>Both you and your opponent control 2 copies of Peten the Dark Clown, and 1 copy of Sangan and Witch of the Black Forest, for some reason.
>Your opponent activates Dark Hole. This simultaneously destroys all monsters on the field

>Sangan and Witch's effects are mandatory. As the turn player, you have priority to activate them, then pass priority to your opponent
>They activate their Sangan and Witch's effects, as they are mandatory, then pass priority.
>As the turn player, you have priority to activate the effects of both of your destroyed Peten the Dark Clowns, then pass priority
>Your opponent does the same
>No more Spell Speed 1 effects can be activated; You move on to Spell Speed 2 effects
>You chain Ash Blossom in response to Peten's effect for fun

>>97069047
>>Your opponent activates Dark Hole. This simultaneously destroys all monsters on the field
I was writing that as though you were the turn player, so just pretend that they triggered Torrential Tribute or something instead.

So weird how Solemn looks like a different person in a single card

>>97069532
Cool to hear anon, anything special to you in it still? It's fun to hear people's stories.

>They had an entire manga series that was skipped over during their Animation Chronicles adaptation, and meanwhile Branded is getting everything from start to finish
It's looking like they are basing the Animation Chronicles off of internal card lore which is separate from Manga lore. Like how the GX, 5Ds, etc all have different lore for their manga and anime.

Though when it comes to Striker, I think their actual anime they intended got cannibalized for Master Duel's story mode, while they were forced to rush out new things for the YouTube release.

Different artist maybe?

>>97071581
>internal card lore
is that discussed anywhere?

yeah, but also the artstyle and design. I doubt every other Solemn card is the same artist, but is the same "non god" person

>>97071969
Master Guide 6 has a section on Sky Striker, and the Master Duel story mode has a large chunk. Other than that, you need to consult the concept arts they've released for notes off to the side. Yugipedia has some of them archived on gallery pages and YGOOrganization has them with translations in some of their articles (though those can be harder to find)

I miss when field spells affected the field

>>97072302
play out of the box speed duel

Been playing Monarch Twins lately and it's hilarious. You place your cringe anime chicks on the field and bait the enemy into thinking "aw fuck its a cringe waifu deck" but no, actually they are the fuel of boss monsters that hate the Extra Deck and people who use them. Konami please, buff my girls or my kings.
I wanna add another dark Fiend monster since the Twins love that shit, and Dark Monarchs have really good effects, so if you got any recs, shoot

ur brain is so full of cock u cant even follow a reply chain LOL

besides, u know what reveals female form better? being naked u gay boi

>>97073137
Clothing accentuates the female form and excites the mind. That's why a woman in a golden two-piece or sexy lingerie will always be more erotic than some naked bitch. An immature and underdeveloped mind like you might not understand these types of complex concepts, but you will some day.

>>97071521
dug out my original dark magicians. still mint
checked some of the prices on these cards, people are really paying that much?

>>97073217
We've already been through this. It only works if the art is good and not sloppily thrown together to censor a card in a children's card game. You know what else excites the mind? Lack of nipples or female sexual organ like the original art.
You utter fool.

You're massively coping.

>>97073258
Post 'em. I highly doubt they're mint.

>Imagine the eroticism if they were put in the hands of a skilled artist that enjoys drawing naked ladies in revealing clothing.
