Synchron is a pretty good deck, check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDIAkdVIYlU for a deeply autistic, in-depth guide on it. Just keep in mind that you have no way to go second with the deck if you don't have harmonia ($150+tax+tip per copy, 3-of btw) and/or synchro emergency (unreleased), which is why he's only running around 15 engine with the rest handtraps and boardbreakers.

Exosister is great for locals, one of those decks with just the right powerlevel for both casual and competitive play, just don't expect it to perform in advanced as well as it does in genesissy.
It's pretty cheap too, i've been looking into ordering a core from tcgplayer and it'd only cost me about $50 plus $10 shipping, but i'm gonna ask around this weekend on some local stores first.

Also if you don't have your staples yet (i'm going to guess you're a returning player), you might want to buy a box of legendary modern decks, it contains 2 ready-out-of-the-box meta decks, a bunch of staples and some x-saber cards.
It only has a copy of fuwalos, so you'd need to buy another two, they're $5 a copy iirc. It's a $45 investment, but again, you're getting 2 whole decks and pretty much every relevant staple out there, which lets you cut down on costs massively every time you build a new deck.

>>Zombies (no eldlich, just like zombie pile back in 2012/2014?)
Dunno if this helps with your desire to use it or not, but Zombie piles still utilize Eldlich these days, simply because it's a dump target for Delta of Invitation that you can "link off" into their most recent fusion monster, Fallen Angel of the Golden Land, for an easy line into their old fusion monster, Eldlich the Mad Golden Lord. You don't need the majority of their archetype's kit in a modern zombie pile.

Not gonna shit on him because mistakes do happen and we kept playing all day (he bought 2 more beta lmao), but you're telling me that people don't read their cards at least once? I spend a unhealthy amount of time cooking up jank decks in edo, which requires me to both read and memorize a lot of cards BECAUSE some of them might have some hidden synergy with each other. Do they just memorize combo lines or something?

>>98016899
It's the opposite. A lot of people will read their cards, once, and have that interpretation stick in their minds until they're told otherwise.

>Order a Near Mint listed single from a highly rated TCGplayer seller
>They send it
>Day after sending it (It's still in the mail) they tell me that they actually must have mis-listed the card because it apparently has a huge error line through it but they're gonna send it anyway and give me a 50% refund
Oh great so now when the card is fucked (You already told me it is) I have to go through the trouble to send the shit back to you, thanks fuckface
Just keep your damaged shit next time and give me a full refund.

>>98016899
That's why I always lab my shit before playing it in locals.
I mentioned this before but mfw Black Ecclesia can tag into any other card that mentions Albaz and not just Albaz. I was just sitting on her T1 like a dumbass.

>>98017015
Protip, White Albaz can also summon synchro Ecclesia from the gy.

>>98017091

>>98016956
That sounds like they're just sending you the correct printing for free

>>98017015
>>98017091
Another thing i've never seen people do (at my locals at least), is use F&V as a monster reborn once ecclesia is in the grave to bring back a starter/boss monster. Very few actually know how to properly use this boardbreaker too (send albion, set another copy, send ecclesia next, now you have a guaranteed shuffle and recycled both your extra deck pieces if you need to use the third copy). I've also seen people properly use the shuffle, but mistakenly think it can only recycle albion when it says level 8 fusion monsters, ie the ugly dracotail fusion or the -terion dragons.

>>98016956
What seller? (to add to my personal avoid list)
And what card? Hopefully it was a cheap one so you can just buy another if the one they send you is shit.

>>98017162
No, it's the opposite.
They're sending me the damaged one and "If I'm still unhappy with the damaged one, let them know (After it arrives)"
Oh, and the kicker is that the one they're sending isn't even a 1st edition which is what I paid for but an Unlimited.

>>98016899
>we kept playing all day
How? I get bored and tired after a single match of Yugioh.

What's the power level at your locals like?

I have a question: if I have a card that redirects Spell targeting, like Metalsilver Armor or Fairy Tail Rella, what happens if I use a card that equips a Monster Card, like with Magistus? Am I forced to target or will it slide?

>>98018553
If it's a monster's effect that activated and not a spell, it's fine. Even if it would make an actual spell become equipped, like Chevalier Bradamante's effect, there's no spell targeting anything.

>>98018553
>Metalsilver Armor
This card would prevent you from activating cards and effects that target a monster on the field. Assuming your opponent is the one that controls it, you would not be able to activate any effects that target.
>Fairy Tail Rella
This card makes it so that you can ONLY target Rella. We will work off of the assumption that you control Rella and not your opponent.

So it basically boils down to how the effects are written. For instance,

Spenta, the Magistus Sealer
>You can banish this card from your GY, then target 1 face-up monster you control; equip 1 "Magistus" monster from your Extra Deck or GY to it as an Equip Spell.
A) Metalsilver Armor is in effect, thus you would not be able to legally activate Spenta's effect
B) You would be able to activate Spenta's effect, targeting Rella

Zoroa, the Magistus Conflagrant Calamity
>If this card is Synchro Summoned: You can equip 1 "Magistus" monster from your Extra Deck to this card.
This card does not target a card on the field, but rather chooses it upon resolution of the effect. [Target]ing can only happen before the effect resolves as "cost". A and B) Inapplicable (does not target)

Zoroa, the Magistus Verethragna
>You can target 1 Effect Monster in your GY or your opponent controls; equip that Effect Monster to this card.
A) I believe that Metalsilver Armor applies to any monsters on the field and in the GY, so you wouldn't be able to activate Zoroa's effect
B) Rella's effect makes it so you could not target an effect monster on your opponent's Field. You would still be able to activate Zoroa's effect targeting a monster in the GY.

>>98018663
Also the relevant effects

Metalsilver Armor
>As long as you control the monster equipped with this card, your opponent cannot use the effect of a Spell, Trap, or Effect Monster that targets 1 monster, except the equipped monster.

Fairy Tail - Rella
>Neither player can target monsters on the field with Spell Cards or effects, except this one.

>>98018663
>>98018670
Re-reading this, I realized my mistake with Rella's assessment because I had Metalsilver's effect in mind while writing it. You would be able to activate all 3 of those effects while Rella is on the field, so just like pretend those Magistus monsters are Spell Cards with those effects. lmao

>>98018553
Read the rulings page, search dragunity.
https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Card_Rulings:Metalsilver_Armor
TLDR targeting-magnets basically becomes the exclusive list of what you can target and if that/those magnet(s) are not valid then you cannot attempt to perform the effect in the first place.
Like if you have a magistus endy effect to equip it say to target Magistus monsters but you have metalsilver armor on lets say a Dark Magician, then you cannot attempt to activate endy.

>>98018691
Thanks. I was mainly confused on the Equip Card shenanigans cuz they inherently target and seem to be inherently treated as Equip Spells (not sure about this).

>>98018746
Equip Spells need to target a monster on the field when they're activated, but they can still be equipped by Card Effect without having to target a card. Power Tool Braver Dragon's effect for instance (and funny enough, one of the most common cases for Metalsilver shenanigans):
>If this card is Special Summoned: You can equip up to 3 Equip Spells with different names from your Deck and/or GY to this card.
This effect does not target and the Equip Spells are not being activated, thus you don't need to be able to target to equip them to Power Tool Braver Dragon.

>>98018666
How do you plan on dealing with 5 digit life points? There are some decks tgat can randomly do that, like Sky Striker drawing 2 Upstart Goblins.

>>98018942
Yeah, that's an obvious problem these have.
I don't plan to deal with that at all, honestly as I did these for the Battle City Finals Box and a board game shell for it.
I guess you could easily stretch this and fit another wheel if you really have to have it, but I'd consider just using paper at that point. At least for the leading digit.

Posted this on /dng/ but I expect I'd get better help here.
Been playing around Heroes but without Verte, is there a better Link 2/3 I could go into here? Not a big fan of playing a random trap (wish it was a S/T negate) but can't really think of any other link to put in here.

>>98020258
Is there a reason not to just make Little Knight there? You can banish whatever you discarded from your opponent if it could do something later, and it's a dark warrior incase it matters for the rest of your extra deck.

>>98020632
I guess I could but I'm just mostly scared of getting DRNM + Board Wipe so I wanted a ST interaction. I was thinking of WP when we get them but meh. My sad thing is without Verte you can't get a Destiny Hero Drawhander to SS to go into Dark Law so I have to resort to Contrast using his effect and then going into Dark Law which doesn't really feel great since I lose an omni negate next turn (does it matter? not really)

>>98020683
Yeah the body for Darklaw can be kind of annoying. Usually ends up being like an Xtra hero link or a stray malicious for the decks playing bigger packages, or the extra sad DPE popping the mask change while letting itself get tributed.

In terms of having backrow plays, could potentially use your miracle fusion to make Infernal Rage instead of a second Contrast, and then make Contrast or DPE on your opponents turn using Favorite Contact. It's still doable even without having to play Neos or any of the hero lock stuff, you just don't get the bonus summon from Infernal Rage.
I guess you'd get 1 more link worth of material that way too in exchange for running a different trap. Could probably even make a dark hero link just as material for the mask change, and still get to make an SP or WP.

Here's one of the event cards for the board game. I plan on using art from the manga to distinguish them from actual Yugioh cards but still have it feel official.

>>98024516
That's pretty dope. Let us know when you got a printable copy, I would love to play it.

Went to a few locals and I don't know if it's the shops I've been going to but the vibe is so awkward. I like to say I'm a step above awkward but man talking to people there it's just barely any conversation. They're standoffish and cliquey. it's so weird. Is it just my area?

>>98024962
Those cliques are common amongst vendor-types or dudes who mostly go to larger events. If you have the luxury of picking out smaller shops, you'll probably find a few normal awkward people at locals that are just barely enough people to fire or with a lower entry fee. Then you can figure out which of the bigger events/stores are worth going to through them.

>Glad that Yu-Gi-Oh is getting cheaper generally

The majority of essential tech is cheap as chips right now. You almost certainly don't need harmonia or white albaz.

>>98015733
I agree I lost round one locals today to game 1 fissure game 2 shifter ban them both

>>98025633
low rarity complete hand trap set is 240$. I think that's a pretty good deal.

>>98025633
Physical KT player here.
I'm not shelling out the cash for harmonia unless I make nats. It didn't move the needle in testing IMO and I'm playing ghost ogre instead.

>>98025834
Fallen and Harmonia go pretty hand in hand. Fallen is literally a free level 8 synchro.
And I'm just thinking meta wise, literally all 3 of these are in a good chunk of decks. Wanted to play Chaos Origin
but that shit's going to be $400+ even outside the core.

I think that DMOD is super overrated. All it does is let you goon without the good parts of gooning (once or twice per turn destruction), and I've also noticed that a lot of players that run the package will blow their wad on DMOD while it's on the field instead of extracting maximum value out of it by targeting it with Gaze while it's in the GY. This is also a format where cards like Forbidden Droplet and Crown are super common, so it's not as though it's difficult to out their goon.

>>98026984
Sure but it's literally for free. Does it win you most games? No not really. Does it WIN you games though? Yeah. Sometimes they really don't have the out and it's just fuck.
Also, I really love Shining Sarc and I'm currently saving to play it in paper but holy fuck this deck cost too much just purely because of all the taxes (nostalgia tax, coomer tax, engine tax, rarity tax) on it at the same time.

Adding to this, What's a somewhat okay deck to bring in paper that's not Mitsurugi or Sky Strikers? Don't want to be a complete pushover but do want to play something lower power to make friends at my locals. Exodia? Shining Sarc? Clown Clans?
I have some other rogue decks but they're all combo lockdown slop and that just feels like a really great way to annoy my opponents to never talking/playing with me again.

>>98026984
If they don't have an answer to a single goon on the field that vacates the field at the end of the turn after it was summoned, then they did not lose to the goon. They lost to everything else on the field.

>>98027072
It's not at the end of the current turn though. It's the end of next turn so they get an omni negate during your turn and omni negate when going for the OTK. That being said going -1/-2 hurts quite a bit unless you're playing Orcust or some other deck that can abuse it. (I think Fairy Tale / Magistus can do some shenanigans?)

>>98027081
Yes. If they summon it during their own turn (the majority of players will since they can't help but goon), it's the end of your turn. Either way you only need to out the card once or twice with one of the myriad of cards that out it.

Is this a decent starting point to make a Zombie deck with modern cards?

>>98026383
>Physical KT player here
Fuck you.

Anyone play Genesys format here? Thoughts? I might try easing my way back into paper with that format instead of Advanced since it's "relatively slower". Heavy on the quotations because I assume even without Pend and Links that the point scoring for certain cards are dumb.

>>98027536
Fair if you're on the receiving end but piloting the deck feels amazing. If you haven't tried it, just netdeck something and do some test hands.

>>98027703
its about as fast as TOSS format

>>98027703
The format feels fine. It shares a few of the top decks and staples but there's enough difference that I think it justifies it's existance. The big thing is that you're having to balance your non engine with your engine assuming your engine is pointed.
Want to run a playset of Ash? Well more than half of your points are now gone (3x20pts). So maybe you instead have to opt for something like effect veiler (3x8pts).
So ideally a really good deck can't play a lot of stronger non engine which is how OCG/TCG format operates where everything is seperate considerations without needing to balance your choices.
The biggest issue IMO is that newer decks are less pointed than they maybe should be leading to a very similar meta to TCG. They're trying to prepoint them better now but I would like to criticize this with it feeling like new cards being pointed too aggressive out the gate leads to them being more hesitant to walk them back. IE how do you know if and when it's going to be a good idea to walk back the points on a card if you're basically unable to play them? Are they just guessing?

>>98028122
I noticed that new cards aren't even really getting pre-smacked when they really should be. In Advanced I think it's fine but with a lower powered format it's so dumb that new cards can just reign supreme until whenever Konami decides to put the banlist on. They really need to get some sort of timeline or date when banlists will happen....

>>98028763
In their last blogpost, they said that they're gonna handle hits separately from now on. One point list for new sets, another to adjust based on usage.

>>98028122
>IE how do you know if and when it's going to be a good idea to walk back the points on a card if you're basically unable to play them? Are they just guessing?
They have about six months of advanced knowledge on how the cards will perform based on how they do in the OCG that which they can use to approximate how they'll perform in Genesys. You can just read effects like those of Killer Tune Synchro for instance and approximate how much the cards should be pointed based on identical generic cards. Guessing isn't a bad thing when they're educated guesses.

Something to consider; KT Synchro only has 10 points while ROTA has 33. Normally you could make the argument that ROTA isn't OPT and thus the point disparity makes sense, but KT Synchro is twice-per-turn and lets you both dig and synchro summon off on Spell Speed 2. You could make the case in both directions, that KT Synchro should cost more and that ROTA should cost less.

>>98028864
I did misread that.
>Walk back on the points
They can probably do most of it based on the primary point adjustments in most cases, as long as they aren't doing extreme swings like with Killer Tune's BLDZ support wave. Like if Clown Clan isn't performing super well with their points and aren't doing anything egregious as per Genesys YCS data, they could lighten those hits across one or two point lists before ultimately finding the sweet spots. I could see them inverting Matinee and Malabarisme's points for instance, since one just gets you EP draws and the other generates you a lot of advantage through removal.

They just need to again like, not do what they did to KT. But it makes sense that they pointed KT's new cards as much as they did since their previous cards were seriously underpointed. I can see older KT cards going up and newer KT cards going down with the next adjustment.

It's a complete waste of time, they outright said in their last blog that they were going to point cards based on their usage, which is why some unpopular handtraps/archetypes (which are unpopular exactly because they were too costly) had their costs lowered, while others had theirs raised. It's a never-ending circle. That, and jewrome/jewart flat out won't deal with macro cosmos and dimensional fissure ever, despite both being incredibly popular in the format, because they're helmet players.

idk why you replied to me too but ok.
I certainly wouldn't label it as a "waste of time" because of that. Given that this is likely run by a similar group that does TCG banlists I think they are the same pussys that won't just commit to a hit and would rather let it fester. I wish they would just commit to stuff like HTs costing 15-20pts (the usual best ones, you know which) as a sort of principle.
That said, the TCG also suffers from similar issues. Like right now what are we doing with Droll at 2? Either ban it or keep it at 3 (should be banned IMO).

>>98030472
Pile shuffling is illegal in mayor tournaments iirc, but it's practically the only way to truly randomize your deck, so i suggest doing it beforehand to avoid brick hands.

a truly random deck will brick. a truly random deck will have clumps. a truly random deck means that every card has an equal chance of being in any position in your deck. pile shuffling is not a form of randomization. just riffle shuffle 7 times, its not that hard.

I only know how to mash shuffle, are there any other shuffle techniques I have to learn IRL? Don't really like riffle since that looks like it'll damage the shit outta cards

>>98033348
if you're damaging cards while riffle shuffling you're doing it wrong. dont shove the cards together, hold the bottom half loosely and let the top cards fall into the bottom ones, you shouldn't be pushing them together at all.

>>98033035
>just riffle shuffle your notoriously fragile yugioh deck bro
nigger, not everyone is on $50 decks, not to mention people will ruleshark you at YCS over it, because it's very likely you DID damage either the card or the sleeve with the shuffle
mash shuffle, then "anime style" shuffle is the way to go
and ALWAYS cut the opponent's deck if he touched it for any reason

>>98033510
perfectly acceptable, if you're not a caveman you wont damage cards riffle shuffling but its fine to be concerned.
>and ALWAYS cut the opponent's deck if he touched it for any reason
you're actually required by the rules to do this, you're not allowed to not cut.

List is about what we've come to expect and expected.
Rotates out the decks from the last format, hits cards adjacent to the expected top deck(s) without hitting the archetypes directly.
inb4 "DURRR it's all to sell product"
No shit, we know. We've been doing this for ages now. Say something of substance. If you were expecting them to kill KT a week into it's meta you're high.
That said, rosewhip being gone is great.
Yummy hits feel a little odd but sure.
Dracotail was the most likely to get hit, no surprise there. Branded Fusion back to 1 is good. Fuck that card's design space.
Premature burial is VERY interesting. It matters for DoomZ which is a very strong deck and it wouldn't surprise me to see it as a rogue deck for the TCG.

This is the list you'll be playing with for Nats so get practicing if that's your thing.

Based, the only reason they didn't hit rotary as well is because she hit store shelves less than a week ago.

I sold this deck ages ago so i don't care, but what the fuck was it doing that warranted his ban?
>more y*mmy and dracotrans hits, plus brandon fusion to 1 again

>synchro overtake limit
Yeah these were the only hits they could have given to KT, the deck only just got all its tools, killing it right now isn't good for sales. Stll, the writing is on the wall so if you can afford harmonia go with elfnote instead.
>white rabbit limit
Why not just fucking ban red ransom, hearts crypter, firewall, terahertz and allied code talker if you want to keep people from playing it? This deck completely mindbroke OCG, TCG and MD for some reason, and that's really funny.
I'm expecting similar hits to KT.

Thank fuck they didn't hit vision, i don't play RT but that card is a staple in sky striker.

>>98034000
All of the below come with an * that if you enjoy the deck for your own kitchen table formats or if you want the deck put on ice as some kind of keepsake then keep them for that.
>3 to 0
That means you have no reason to have it and nobody else does either. Sell all but you're likely to sell none of them.
>3 to 2
If it's over 10usd then maybe consider selling them but if not then just hold onto it. It can likely come back in a few uears but will get reprinted to be cheap. You waste time more than money.
>3 to 1
This is gay baby jail for stupid cards that would likely be better off banned and will likely go to 0 before they go back to 3. Sell these.

Don't kid yourself. The archetype who's "gimmick" is to do a bunch of burn damage and FTK is one of the most obvious archetypes with an expiration date tied to it in existence.

>>98035448
>still tier 0
It's the best deck but it's by no means a tier 0 deck. Also the fuck do you mean still? The deck has been legal for 3 (THREE) days.
If you burned yourself out on the format already by playing it digitally for the last few months then that's your own fault.

>>98035460
Fine, I'll just switch to Six Samurai FTK :^)

>>98035477
We all know it's going to be over represented at events for the upcoming 3 months, just look at the ocg. They should've hit it more so its on even playing field with other decks. Now it's clearly a tier 0 deck, as it doesn't lose to anything other than itself. That's just Konami being greedy again and just shilling their new products over the health of their game. #GameSucks

You have to be extremely retarded to think this is a good idea and a good way to design and conduct the game.

See above about catapult turtle. Given how much time it takes to preform, you'll likely just end in a double loss.

>>98035539
>If catapult turtle becomes even remotely close to consistent you bet your ass they'll hit it.
Yes. You pull as many cards out of your deck as possible (King's Sarcophagus can do at least 5 or 6) and then go for a Zombie Vampire mill, either summoning Catapult Turtle or putting it in your hand for a Tribute Summon with Ice Barrier (this is assuming you didn't just draw into either of the two). Then you Draglubion into Numeron Dragon and burn for game. The only thing that really hurts the combo is Ash Blossom, but it isn't hard to get around that.

Incidentally, Catapult Turtle has been banned in every single format other than the TCG, because it's the most consistent way to FTK your opponents.

>>98035670
that loses to any 1 piece of interactive non-engine. if it was good people would be playing it.

>>98035957
You need an engine that brings out 2 Rank 8s which aren't popular in the current meta. If a Rank 8 deck is popular in the meta, Catapult Turtle instantly sees play. It isn't a hard concept to grasp.

And that's also what makes the Gimmick Puppet hit so confusing. Because nobody is fucking playing Gimmick Puppet.

>if it was good people would be playing it.
And if it were bad, it wouldn't be banned in 3 other formats (we're counting Genesys with this one since it's at 100 points there).

>>98036036
>And if it were bad, it wouldn't be banned in 3 other formats (we're counting Genesys with this one since it's at 100 points there).
That's a false dichotomy though. Cards can be bad as well as being worth banning. They can also be any combination of unfun, uniteractive, low-skill, and still be worth removing from the cardpool. I think it should be banned in the TCG as well, but it is by no means a good, or powerful, or even close to a meta strategy.
>And that's also what makes the Gimmick Puppet hit so confusing. Because nobody is fucking playing Gimmick Puppet.
You kinda shot your own argument in the foot here, seeing that Mitsurugi, a deck that makes 1 rank 8 and 1 rank 4, could have played a full Gimmick Puppet FTK and they didnt do it because it was bad.

>>98036246
>It's bannable but it's not good. Because uhh... reasons!
>I think it should be banned! But uhh... not because it's good!
Yeah, whatever fagnuts.

It's a different meta. I don't think the box kits will have complete unwinnable matchups but I think Kaiba is the only one with a pretty bad wincon. I only have the GX box kits so I only know via the videos I've seen. Remember Maxx C won't really help that much since it's a MUCH slower format.

Issue is that those two are the only cards that moved in a positive direction. Not a lot to work with sadly.
One interesting (read: unlikely to be viable) idea is that you can find an archetype/card that intentionally prevents the last warrior from activating so you don't need to worry about blowing up your stuff. Such as a card like dominus spark or the channelers except aussa.

>>98041221
You could do that with Forbidden Crown shutting off your own monster since that non-targeting applies to anything on the field. Witchcrafter could also unironically run it, both in the ease of bringing it out with Haine and protecting their monsters from the field nuke with Bystreet.

>>98041251
>Crown
Yeah but that's depending on another [basically] unsearchable card to perform which is why I said to find an archetype so that way you pick up the lock as you play the deck normally. I know I suggested two of the same above but those were more for describing the kind of condition than reasonable ways to pick up the condition.
>Bystreet
I guess that could work assuming you spend a search on it if you see metamorph in your hand. It will be rare but it's not like it acts for more than a single card in your MD and ED.

>>98041096

It's free with the new support and a pretty standard part of the TCG-legal combo as of now. Only issue is putting Bystreet in your hand-- I run Potterie with the new support, but my TCG-legal build would only be able to dig it out (before summoning Last Warrior) with VM.

Tangentially related but @regulus guy from the last thread:
>https://ygoprodeck.com/deck/witchcrafter-709498
Here's a build that uses Regulus. Though he's relegated to destruction protection for the most part.

>>98041096
why would she need legs for me to do that?

>>98041874
Yeah I think another guy in that thread mentioned it but the line is basically like
>NS Regulus search Endymion Empire
>Empire searches a Maid
>Maids do their setup, fetching Walpurgis or putting themselves on the field
>Regulus also acts as protection while he and Empire are on the field

This is your basic redundancy line to get your hands on Walpurgis. It isn't really needed thanks to Marka, but it also puts Maid Genni in your hand so that you can jumpstart a summoning line after Walpurgis is online.

One thing that I don't like is that this list lacks Bystreet in Main. Walpurgis might be the most important card in the deck but this list is effectively running 13 fucking copies of the card between 3x Marka 3x Maid Verre 3x Regulus 3x Walpurgis, and 1 copy of Endymion Empire. I'm not counting the absolute fucking reaches that would be Creation and Maid Genni that would bump it up to 17. Consistency is important but the deck could stand to have more named WC spells in main.

Also, I don't know what was up with the other guy randomly calling you the n-word when you asked for a decklist. I was just busy for a couple of days and didn't get the opportunity to respond.

Funnily enough this dude got a retrain like a year ago. I tried to make the deck work and i got nowhere with it.

It couldn't play through disruption, it couldn't extend at all. I tried to fix it by shoving a few engines in it, and melodious had the most synergy. But this more or less just turned the ancient fairy part of the deck into a (bad) engine meant to shit out black rose to (hopefully) nuke the field, so i could activate ostinato and maul the opponent with exceed the pendulum, vortex, ignister and vengeance.

It only worked half of the time because i needed to start the combo through regulus (i can search it through world of spirits, BUT i need world of spirits to search spore instead, as the alternative was running 3x of each card and hope i drew at least 2 of them every time), and then hard draw ostinato (unsearchable). Thank god melodious alone could put up a decent board, so i was never at a loss when i went first or could only normal summon refrain.

>>98051683
l'd recommend learning the play and theory of the deck so you get an idea of what you want to do and what the role of the cards are in the deck. Most video deck profiles will do this as they go over cards.
As for lists, there's no shortage of topping lists to pick from. Many opt to play Mitsu along with it because it comes in the product too and because a few small synergies.

Here's a link to ygoprodeck with the filters on to make it easy for you.
https://ygoprodeck.com/deck-search/?tournament=tier-2&_sft_post_tag=Sky%20Striker&offset=0
You should straight net deck something to get started and then maybe decide if you want to do your own thing. PLAYTEST IT DIGITALLY BEFORE BUYING MUCH ELSE (assuming you have just the legendary modern decks product so far) so you can see if you like it.
Pro tip: most of the decks in the above link are sourced from a decklist video where they go over the deck if you scroll down on each list. Those can help you learn something about the deck. Just watch a handful of them even if you won't play that exact list.

Some people suspect that they're trying to kill it in Japan on purpose because they didn't expect it to go as well as it did.

Say what you will about the guys in the TCG that handle Genesys' point list, they at least have a vision that the people handling the OCG's point list clearly lack.

>>98055712
That is one possibility, but another I could easily see is that they are trying to be more aggressive in lowering the power level further due to the myriad of complaints on that front, potentially with a more algorithmic setup to make larger pushes for that to be easier.

It's harder to see because it's buried throughout the list, but every single Ghost Girl handtrap also has a 3-4 (side note, 3x Ash Blossom is now 69 points) and in some cases 6 point buff to its costs, as well as Effect Veiler getting a 5 point increase and the Herald of Orange Light and Herald of Green Light getting 5 point buffs of their own. A lot of generics it plays like Red Nova that it plays went to 3 and both Accel Stardust and Synchro Overtake went up by 4.

Probably should have been smacked a bit more directly, but it did also get hit a lot more than just the archetypal names suggest it was hit.

Both halves of the deck require a lot of space though, and i don't feel too comfortable running more than 40 cards, this deck bricks a lot already.

>>98056688
Maybe try Clown Clan since you don't need your Extra Deck or just splash in a sneedsmith engine since it just works.

I already have my LMD box (i bought it for sky striker), so i'll give mitsurugi a try before i buy another engine for this deck.

The issue with this build is that i either go 45 cards, or give up diviner entirely, and she's one of my favorite cards so i can't just do that.

I'm not too sure on the ratios, pic related is a preliminary build, i'd like some opinions on it.
>3x diviner, 3x lo, 3x barrier, 3x prayer
These are the best cards in the deck, i don't need to explain why i'm maxing them out.
>1x trias, 1x night sword
Engine requirements.
>1x sauravis, 1x sauravis (old), 1x blessings, 1x radiance, 1x habakiri, 1x futsu, 1x kusanagi, 1x saji, 1x mirror, 1x ritual, 1x purification
I don't need multiple copies of these. Saji and mirror are garnets, but running 2 of each is simply a mistake.
>1x skull guardian, 1x saffira, 1x prayers, 1x murakumo
Still not too sure on these. Saffira has to send a ritual spell from deck to search, and if i happen to draw prayers i'd have to send ritual, and that kills the mitsurugi cards (unless i run 2 ritual, which is pointless because not even a quarter of my deck is reptiles). Sending mirror means turning off pre-prep too.
The most simple solution would be running 2 prayers, BUT without an extra saffira (and skull guardian, since i can banish prayers to summon a copy directly from the deck) there's no real point to it besides removing its garnet status.
Sucking it up and hoping i just never draw more than 2 garnets seems like the best choice.
Murakumo is a fantastic card however, but running 2 means going over 40, and if i go over 40 i might as well run 45 (+1 murakumo, +1 skull guardian, +3 handtraps), and again, the deck bricks a lot with 40 cards.
>why are you not running aramasa
Because i'd rather have the extra body of NSS, i don't run good targets for aramasa (like an extra murakumo/wousu), and the normal is dedicated to diviner and lo.

The extra is mostly a toolbox so i'll just add whatever in those 2 slots.

It's better to go 45 cards these days, so it should be fine. Better to have all the tech you need, especially with 1-card combo starters and even moreso because of Fuwalos.

I need some help, since I am getting conflicting information on this with regards to Speed Duel: If I have Ra - Immortal Phoenix in my GY and summon normal Ra with Monster Reborn as per the effect of millenium revelation, my cheated out Ra will have 0 ATK and DEF and will go into the GY on my end phase. This will make Phoenix Ra come out.
Now, does the Phoenix immediately go to the GY aswell? Or will that not happen since I am already in the end phase?

>>98060363
The game's verbiage functions in very literal fashions. So you just need to read Phoenix mode's text.
>Once per turn, during the End Phase: Send this card to the GY, and if you do, Special Summon 1 "The Winged Dragon of Ra - Sphere Mode" from your hand, Deck, or GY, ignoring its Summoning conditions.

>Once per turn, during the End Phase:
This is completely agnostic to when you entered the end phase. It's a mandatory effect that MUST be activated, but it can be activated at any point in the end phase. The basic idea is that Ra gets sent to the GY, Immortal Phoenix would summon itself and repeat that procedure, then you'd be able to summon Sphere Mode from any of the listed locations. Which is to say that you'd be able to live for as long as your opponent can't out Sphere Mode (control wouldn't switch since that effect is only applied when it's tribute summoned and your opponent can't attack it, nor attack around it).

>>98060363
>>98060404
Uh, sorry. tl;dr
>Now, does the Phoenix immediately go to the GY aswell?
Yes, as per its effect.

Thanks. Makes sense, but some have claimed otherwise.
I was wondering how to make best use of Phoenix in Speed Duels. I guess it's more a deterent from killing an attacking Ra, rather than an actual beatstick.

I got top 16 at my regional today, specifically 12th

Now this may not seem particulary impressive to pro gamers such as yourselves but for someone like my who is normally content to go 2-2 at locals every week to get top 16 at a 100+ person tournament and get a nacqw invite its something to me ok

>>98060672
>Makes sense, but some have claimed otherwise.
The only way it that Immortal Phoenix would stay on the field is if there were a Speed Duel-specific skill that allowed that, something preventing you from activating its (mandatory) effect, or if it had its effects negated (because the activation is mandatory but the effect can be negated). I dunno, you should probably ask them to clarify just in case. The effect doesn't trigger as you're entering EP though, it triggers as long as you are in EP, and again, MUST trigger as it's mandatory.

>>98061306
I bought those stands from Japanese mercari with a forwarder. It's not worth it if those are the only items you get because of Japanese shipping costs but if you get a larger order then it can be a good one-off thing.

I wish I could say it was some rouge deck but I played Kewl Tune buuuut it's my own variant with a Branded engine thats not just F&V dump targets, I actually make and use the Ecclesia synchro, and use og Albaz to fuse along with other things. I did play KT when in released, still with the Branded cards, before the BLZD support and everyone bandwagoned onto it.

>>98057211
Depends on what my deck is and how often they misplayed. If I got a weak deck and they are messing up but still manage to navigate, they may be telling the truth. If they know what they are foing on the other hand....

Here's the newest itteration of the boardgame. I got all the Event Cards done, too. Also, I streamlined it a little and tried a different background., though I think I'll go back to the design with the Artwork, since that looks more interesting.

/dng/ are being a bunch of fucking tools, so reposting here:
Any advice to get for my locals? My local does play meta but I'm learning paper so I don't want to go Meta vs Meta while I'm still learning the game.
I play Heroes and Branded but wanted a third simple deck. (I'm building GMX Dinos for Genesys but I have to wait a month for the cards to arrive)
Should I build:
>Spellcaster Slop
SS Magistus Azamina - I usually play a dumb shit destruction buster lock for this too, feel like that's going to get me punched at locals but F&V + FC + FD is common enough where I'm like meh. I can pivot to Fairy Tale or Witchcrafters later. Cons is that it's going to be expensive as fuck especially with DMOD Engine and it's not particularly great at going second (no shit)
>Orcust
Expensive if I want to go full power and it's a little too simple. I wouldn't say it's bad in going second due to handtrap heaven but handtrap heaven IS expensive especially with Impulse.
>Adamancipator Magnet Warriors
Not a bad pick but meh. Plays for days but it's a little too similar to Heroes where I'll do like a million things at once based on the hand I have but way too long combos and it'll probably piss my local off. I have most of the core already though...
>Others?
BEWD - Expensive if you want to go full power, will take a while for new support to arise and it's still not really that good anymore with new support.

>Upcoming Future Decks:
Invoked
Chaos Origin
Blitzclique
Something with Shaddolls?

>Plays for days but it's a little too similar to Heroes where I'll do like a million things at once based on the hand I have but way too long combos
Not really, the deck unfortunately doesn't have a lot of ways to bluff/extend, and three of its 3-ofs (it runs 5) are essentially the same card (because it's a really good card).
>way too long combos
False, the deck sets up plasma magnum and two level 4s in like five summons, and all you do after that is summon gallant granite to search researcher and hopefully dig up another rock with her effect, then you summon naturia beast (and masquerena, sometimes). It DOES combo for days in OCG and MD, but that's only due to block dragon, baronne and elf being legal in those formats.

So, since "The True Sun God" does not exist in Speed Duels, is there any way to actually get to attack with the Phoenix reliably? I am looking at the Marik deck from the Finals Box and ASFAIK the only way would be to tribute it but this deck has nothing to tribute him for. I guess you could have an opponent use some effect to send your vanilla Ra to the GY during your MP, which will likely not be done by someone who knows how Phoenix works.

Did you know she named them kuro and shiro, ie black and white, based on their colors, BUT messed up their names because she used to be blind and named them before a demon cured her many illnesses? The white one is kuro and the black one is shiro, it should be the other way around.

Oddly enough it's also her first reprint.

Man, that TCG set in September is going to be expensive as fuck huh....

>>98064094
This is a comment about both of them but you should make sure that the pieces that move around the "monopoly" part should be flat so you don't bump them while playing in the center.
One idea is something like the weak magnet sheets with a sticky side that's used for those very thin fridge magnets on the spaces and then metal game pieces with a handle so they stick. You can cut them with a good pair of scissors to make strips.
Alternatively. You could make is so there's only spaces on the two side edges and then a "jump" arrow to go to the other side.

I say this because then people go to pick up their backrow to look at them they often slide it towards themselves which could knock the pieces or whatever.

>>98070257
Since it's the effective megatin for the year I doubt it. I think it will sell super hard at the start and people will cry scalping or whatever to drive sales to retards but if you talk to a distro I doubt it will be a problem.
Just go to your LGS and see if you can preorder a case through them. You'll pay a bit more but whatever if you really want a bunch of it or can find some people to aplit the case with which is my own plan.

My local box store has some old set boxes and structures, and I'm trying to get back into paper (since before 2010) for some casual locals/genesys events, but I don't have too much money to spare, so I'm hoping whatever I don't use I can at least sell at the card shop to make some back or trade for missing singles. What are good grabs? There's a lot of the legendary 5Ds decks (Already got one for under MSRP), one of the modern legendary decks, a lot of the charmers and branded structure decks, a couple each of Justice Hunters and Phantom Revenge, five or so of doom of dimensions, duelist advance, and burst protocol

>>98070397
Fair point and a good consideration. I thought of using the skill cards as board pieces with stands like picrel.
If a Duel starts you can just pluck them down and put under the board to keep track of positions. That's also why I wanted the spaces to be wider.

>>98070467
not a great tcg for flipping. better to get singles. I'm not even fucking with you. RC05 would be pretty good if it wasn't so dang overpriced but almost every other set has like 90% junk cards, 9% good cards and 1% chance to get the chase card.

Newer the better though, I don't think you EVER want to buy the old box sets even if it is cheap.

>>98070541
To be clear, I'm not trying to flip for profit, I just want to know what's the least stupid thing to buy if I want to have some basic staples and strategies ready without waiting on a bunch of online singles orders, and let me offload what I don't like to get at least something back. I know things like the legendary decks having most of the staple handtraps already, and Justice Hunters had essentially all the meta contender cards until the most recent format, and I liked the look of enneacraft, but I wasn't sure beyond that what was a good "starting out" buy, or which sets were complete pack filler to be avoided

>>98069256
Planning to get her for my Live Twin deck. I try to use as many alt arts as I can in that particular deck.

>>98070579
I know what you mean bro, but I'm genuinely serious because I've been in the same spot you're in. You ain't getting your money back lol. Casino always wins with Konami. I mean Blazing Protocol is carried by like 1-3 cards and there's a chance you won't even get it in a box.

But you're kinda lucky since Konami is changing their strats so now the new boxes starting from Chaos Origins seem a lot more conclusive as in you can build a deck straight from there without needing to cross buy from other sets. If you can wait, I'd go FULL in on Chaos Origins, the box lets you straight play (Blitz - may need a few other generic staples like thunder king rai-oh) / Ritual of Light and Darkness - Meta but need other staples for non engine / Invoked - mostly complete, may need some old invoker cards) and the new set in September.

If you want a set for staples the best choice would be DUDE probably, but that set is like 7 years old. honestly just buy singles. you will never never never build a collection of staples from buying sealed product without spending 10x what you would if you bought singles, and thats counting what you would make back from selling the extra cards.

>>98070467
the legendary modern decks 2026 are playable out of the box, buy those to learn how to play again, and then buy singles.

>>98070678
I at least know how to play, I've been playing masterduel and various kitchen table formats for years. Is the Chronicle Structure worth it? It seems like Branded is still being splashed in everything these days

>>98070610
>>98070664
That is just depressing. I'm not expecting to come back and have things be exactly like they were on the school playground, but I was hoping that there was at least something remaining of the process of opening packs and making something out of what you had without feeling like a complete waste of money. I got into Edison because I could take my old collection and make something that felt like it could at least play the game, even if it wasn't taking any wins off of HERO or Frog or Blackwing

>>98070750
The Chronicle Structure deck doesn't have the "engine" everyone is splashing in. It still has Bystials so if you want to splash those but the Fallen of the White Dragon and Black Ecclesia are like $100 each (black ecclesia is around $50-ish?). Fallen also wants 3 of them things in the engine so that's $350 just for 4 cards. You could try looking into genesys for cheaper decks but the problem is well at least my area the lack of genesys locals...
>I was hoping that there was at least something remaining of the process of opening packs and making something out of what you had without feeling like a complete waste of money.
not really but as I said Chaos Origin at least does sorta that rather than most archetypes being split between 2-3 sets.

>>98070750
>It seems like Branded is still being splashed in everything these days
It isn't. Their core engine doesn't even really need Branded Fusion anymore and they typically spec into synchros. Only deck that really used Branded stuff recently other than Branded is Dracotail. The engines that get splashed into everything under the sun would be Mitsurugi and (to a lesser extent,) Fiendsmith.

>>98070468
Putting them underneath the board is probably the cheap and a good way of doing it as well. I would probably go with that if you want to keep things simple rather than doing something fancy like the magnet strips.

>>98070767
>>98070773
There's also the other engine of F&V ($10, it's included in the structure deck) + Albion and Black Ecclesia (Black Ecclesia isn't mandatory but it's really nice to have).

>>98070750
let me put it this way, if you're not trying to get lucky and essentially throw your money away in search of a god-pull, legendary modern decks 2026 is the only product that's been released by konami since covid that has been worth buying from an "aquiring cards to actually play with" perspective.

>>98070845
I think I just realized why I'm still holding onto this idea that I can get my money back. When I was getting into Edison last year I got one or two of the quarter century tins for the stardust and black rose variants, and the pulls I got from that essentially paid me back for the purchase and let me trade in the one I missed, with plenty of cards left. Was that an anomaly, or is the product this year just not as good?

>>98070779
I was considering doing what you described above with the jumping arrows and only two lines of space to the sides, aswell. However, I just had the idea of turning this potential problem of blocking normal play into a mechanic: A punishment "being in the way". Instead of getting just plucked down when a duel starts the card is moved to the side and the player loses a turn until he can put his piece on the board again. Like a mini jail. Perhaps there could be better spaces in these "danger zones" like the chance to draw from the booster pile, so you have to weigh the options of crossing over and hoping noone starts a duel while standing on the danger spaces. But that might also be too complicated. I'll have to think about it.

>>98070816
That package is different since it's effectively just splashable MST that can recover itself exactly two times at most, which is a little different than using Branded Fusion to either tie up all of your deck's loose ends or alternatively just summon Mirrorjade.

>>98071397
bruh I think he's talking about free F+V and a level 8 synchro turbo engine that people are mentioning.
God synchros seem a bit busted this era. Not sure if I should build Resonators or Synchrons for a fun deck.

What are some simple, oldschool even, ways to easily get some rank 6 out? This is for a jank kitchen table deck

>>98070664
>DUDE
The set for staples is not DUDE anymore. It's the Legendary Modern Decks 2025. 1-2 copies and buying singles to fill out the rest gives you two rogue decks and a bunch of staples.

>>98071797
Fiendsmith basic combo

>>98069256
Just curious, where does that lore come from? Is it from translated concept art or one of those lore books?

>>98071797
elfnote fiendsmith.

>>98071797
There's surprisingly very few good generic rank 6 engines until fiendsmith.
The easiest way to kind of tell is to look at the rank six pool and then work backwards. There's only a few archetypes there, most of which don't make for a good engine.
If you can afford to make rank 3s I guess you could try a larger goblin bikers package by going into big gabonga.
But all of this is new stuff so idk what else to tell you.

>>98071797
historically rank 6s are the least supported xyzs, the only "old school" deck that played them to any success was hieratics

>>98071797
ze amin add foxy tune
foxy tune discard whatever, summon
tune them into dragon drive, CL1 add psychic tracker, CL2 revive ze amin, CL3 boost dragon drive
special summon tracker, tune it with ze amin into immortal dragon, send ghost sleeper, add ghost fusion
fuse immortal dragon and changshi (from deck) into duke of demise
changshi summons herself from banishment, there's your two level 6

you can get ze amin onto the field with e-tele, but even if you have to use your normal summon for it, duke of demise gives you another one

ngl that new TCG set so fucking bad it legit made me think about dropping yugioh. holy fuck how did they drop the ball THAT hard

>>98074884
You missed mentioning what you summon in step 2, deer note
I wouldn't recommend this combo though.
>Bricks (soft and hard): 1x foxy, 1x deer, 1x tracker, 1x ghost sleeper, 1x ghost fusion, 1x changshi
>ED slots: 3
Even with most of these being soft bricks IF you see the starter idk about this one.

>>98075714
>Doesn't say what set
>Doesn't say why it's bad
>Yugioh is Le Dead!
Ok quality bait, here's a (you).

>>98075911
All of them are soft garnets.
>ghost sleeper
You will need a discard anyway, and sending her with foxy tune triggers the effect.
>ghost fusion
You just don't add anything after sending ghost sleeper, or you send something else.
>changshi
Ghost fusion can fuse by banishing shit from your hand and GY as well.
>foxy tune and deer note
Assuming you open both, you can just reveal deer note to special summon it while sending the other. It's very unlikely for such a thing to happen however, but if it does then yes, you might as well scoop because you need to lose LP with ze amin's effect. But you could just run a extra target to fix that, rising carp is a free body and/or a book of moon.
>tracker
I usually run 1 copy of ghost ogre as an extra target.

And it's literally the only decent rank 6 engine besides fiendsmith, which is significantly weaker in TCG. I 'member when i only had to run a copy of moon, requiem, engraver and necroquip to summon caesar, nowadays i need two level 4's to summon exciton and then immediately link it off for requiem, which kills fiendsmith as a engine because the entire point was using two spare bodies to get a negate/a bao a qute/chaos angel out of it.
