The list is too big to post here, but i do know that diabellstar and maiden of the aqua are in the top five.

>>98081740
>TQ
the latest banlist is uniquely bad in that it did not hit KT at all while everything else got dragged through the mud. You can say that it's too early to hit KT and I'll tell you to shut your bitch ass up. Naturia Rose Whip was the only hit that they really took and that doesn't even really count since it's a non-engine floodgate.
>Heehee let's Limit synchro overtake to "kill" an out-of-engine consistency tool for the deck! (it's actually just a recommended ratio since people are running 3 Duelist Genesis (searches Overtake) to compensate)
Like come the fuck on, dude. I wasn't expecting them to kill their BLZD cards or anything, but I was expecting them to do SOMETHING so that it isn't just running rampant at full power.

>but KT is a fair deck!
I've heard some KT players say this. Just a reality check, as someone that has several Runick variants and who is fully aware of my decks' weaknesses; Being fair doesn't mean that what you're running isn't completely miserable to deal with. KT can virtually never brick, bombards you with floating effects, has the ability to dodge targeted negation, has the random ability to shut off 2 entire summoning mechanics for no particular reason (3 in the case of some Ritual decks), and has the nerve to randomly get hand information during your standard combos. It doesn't matter what weaknesses it has, all of that shit makes it absolutely miserable when you're on the receiving end. Even if you win.

I like that Snow was unbanned since I feel like she was just re-Limited a little too early during Tearlaments format, and I'm hoping that Metamorphosis doesn't break the game too much (or that they at least address a little few of its targets in an emergency banlist, if they have their hearts set on keeping it legal). Most of the other changes I think are unremarkable.

>>98081809
You have to understand that KONMAI doesn't hit shit based on how unfair it is, killer tune literally just got its two missing pieces (rotary and fydraulis), so they didn't hit the deck in order to boost sales of BLZD. They didn't hit elfnote either for the same reason, even though we could have seen a meme limit like tinia to 2.
This however means they WILL overcompensate in the next banlist in order to sell the newest thing, so i wouldn't buy into either deck unless you make a living off of this game or just don't mind 1k worth of cards turning into $200 come december.
>KT is a fair deck
It's absolutely not. Just the fact that it can take a look at your hand (and thus play accordingly ie stopping after a few summons if they see nibiru, ending on a certain synchro if they see droll, etc), stack your draw AND potentially banish a very important 1-of, and rip a random extra deck card (which also can be a crucial 1-of) while performing their most basic plays means that by design the deck was mean to be unfair and annoying.

>>98081850
They have been a little better about at least spacing out the hits lately, which is why I have such a problem with the latest list. They're going to use it to push product but it hasn't been this blatant is a good while. And you'd think they could at least hit one or two of the native KT cards instead of leaving them entirely untouched.

>>98081740
>TQ
The obvious thing is that the banlist reaks of "Rotation time, buy the new cards!" It sucks, we all know it, but it's the reality we have to live with. I'm not gonna beat the dead horse.

If you expected that we were going to get hard and direct hits on KT then you're retarded and have zero pattern recognition. There is no logical reason you would expect huge hits to the deck that was putting up no results before the support so soon.
>B-but we know it's going to be meta! Konami should be hitting all meta decks before they release!
I see this shit every time we get a banlist just before an expected meta deck releases and they basically never hard hit these decks.
I live under no illusion, the deck is extremely good and is unfair in a meta sense. I full expect Rotary and B2B to be banned and KT synchro to go to 1 within the year. But it was never happening THIS list.

Metamorph is a really interesting card to have back alongside snow for a fairytail deck of some sort.
But I would like to question why didn't we see more cards move towards unlimited? I guess maybe because they really want to shill BLZD stuff but it's not like something like purrely is going to beat any of the other expected decks in the meta let alone KT.

In response to the KT meta I could see some sort of fusion deck like Lunalight stepping up. I think the deck is extremely overlooked and if KT is still the top deck by the LL support this fall then expect it to be around.
The other one is Unchained but I think that one is going to way after a banlist that hits KT and will be our next boogeyman. That support is insane but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Alright then if it was such a big deal for you then you should have no problem answering these two questions.

>I can namefag here if I want
Sure we can't stop you but don't expect people to play along. I'm sure you know that it doesn't adhere to the broader culture of 4chan, including this thread.

>i play through his handtraps (ash and purge), but then he goes masquerena into gorgon to negate my monster
>shortly afterwards he apologizes, says he can't negate my monster because he activated dominus purge from hand

>card states that if you use it from hand, you can't activate the effects of dark, water and fire monsters for the rest of the duel
>gorgon however isn't activating anything (AFAIK), all of her effects are continuous
>we call over a employee because we don't actually know what to do
>he doesn't know either
>we leave it up to a coin toss, he wins so he rewinds and lets me keep playing
He won, but he could have won harder had he negated my starter.

>>98084332
Also since she only negates activated effects, i'm pretty sure she can't "turn off" winda either, as her floodgate is a continuous effect. She CAN swing at her however.

>>98084332
gorgon activate only if the opponenets monster effect activates, so the card wasn't activated at all,

Gorgon doesn't activate but IP does.

idiot from the previous thread, I bought the legendary modern decks box, and the mitsurugi deck seems to contain a bad cut misprint of at least Mitsurugi no Mikoto, Kusanagi, though I haven't opened the plastic packaging to check the rest. Is this common? Is that why there's an extra pack with mitsurugi cards in it? Do people buy these things for anything, or should I just keep it for the fun oddity?

>>98085936
The bonus pack has a chance of a starlight rare in it which can be worth a pretty penny if you get one. I don't know what your Kusanagi looks like but KoA's print quality has been pretty damn bad these past few years so it wouldn't surprise me at all if you got a damaged card out of the box.

>>98085956
It's the kind of misprint where the card has too much border on the bottom and too little border on the top, so the name is printed almost on top of the stars

>>98085960
Many such cases.

They seriously can't be making any money off of this, no one is dumb enough to pay that much for a piece of cardboard knowing they can order from literally any other seller or just go to another store (assuming they buy it on a random card shop).

The store is LegendsTCGShop.

>>98086132
We JUST left multiple formats that were determined by how many negates you could put on the field at once in favor of how many interactions your deck can put out. The two most generic negates we can currently put out are Ilia Silva (very ashable engine) and Murakumo (the negate is optional). It may come as a surprise, but people don't want more.

>>98086109
It's more likely that Dragoon will finally get banned. Gaze still has other targets and it's still an engine you can put out for free as long as you're willing to run an Azamina package. You'd just be ending off on Timaeus for quick effect backrow removal instead of Dragoon for an omni.

You might be able to coax an LGS if you're willing to buy an entire case of it or can find people to split it with at the locals.
The big issue is that the LGS can only purchase by the case from distros and they don't want to deal with the excess as they already know how much they want for regular shelf stock.
Or you can skip all that and buy from the distro directly IYKYK. Assuming you want a case.

Kewl Tune's "fairness" is purely determined by the skill of the person playing it. If they are shit, then it seems fair to them as they are hitting stuff that doesn't fully lock the deck and their knowledge of the opponent isn't enough to make stuff to lock said decks out. But if they are good, then Kewl Tune can fuck up your opponent hard.

Note that I am purely referring to perception here. The complete lock-out is not something that should happen with any deck, but the skill needed especially when the format is wide, may prevent it from having many tops and cause some to claim it's power is overexaggerated.

Orcust, galatea loves girsu with all her heart yet doesn't really understand what feelings are (because she's a little robot fairy, she wasn't even meant to have sentience, love made her grow a soul), she just knows she wants to stay by his side forever.
Girsu also loves her deeply, so much that he made 2 new bodies for them both, one resembling his old self while the other is a small silicone body donning his old cape, with a gold record of sorts inside that serves as galatea's heart/brain. Her name is also a really cute pun, it is pronounced as "galatea-ai", meaning artificial intelligence and also love in japanese.

The blue-eyes archetype can also be interpreted as the undying love of an autistic egyptian man, when seto destroyed sugoroku's copy of BEWD he didn't do it just to be an asshole, the man simply didn't want anyone else to "own" her.
This however doesn't mean he considers himself kisara's owner, their entire backstory is that seto protected her when a bunch of criminals wanted to enslave her, which made kisara awaken her ka/spirit, which happens to be BEWD.
Sadly they didn't actually end up consummating their love, that's why kaiba surrounds himself with BEWD memorabilia in the future, he misses her a lot yet he doesn't really remember why.

I don't know why only now I am learning that Over The Nexus got a difficulty increase romhack back then in january.

No such thing exists, maybe if all the exodia pieces were free alongside pot of greed and/or prosperity, but that will never happen. And even if you joined a meme no banlist tournament that let you use such a deck, people in japan have demonstrated that any chad on tearlaments, maliiss, ryzeal or toon would creampie you before you even got to use a single draw spell.

And i really doubt you'd come here to ask such a question IF you truly didn't know a thing about the game. A total newnigger would ask in r_ddit first.

I have an insane idea. Give me your thoughts.
>Pseudo-Classic Format
>Format in which only certain new cards are allowed. These cards are made specifically for this format.
>Cards are available in separate sets from the typical new releases, are marked with a star or something
>PCF Cards have low power levels, very little text (four lines at most), variety of monster tribes, only use the most accessible keywords
>Care is given to avoid rampant power creep
>Art style resembles classic Yu-Gi-Oh: No more ultra-busy artwork, with a focus on cool grotesque monsters, some cute cards, some sexy cards
>Lots of normal monsters (useful for tribal stuff) with interesting flavor text building up this new, alternate dimension
Basically a format that can be used to lure new people into the game. Something you can play with your friends who are interested in Yu-Gi-Oh but will have a heart attack when they see something like Pendulum Dimension

Just because I want Konami to financially suffer even more.

As someone who likes modern yugioh and wants just a tiny bit of a balance tweak (unironically think Justice Hunters was the start of something kinda good and Burst Protocol continued from there until fucking Blazing Dominion and the rise of Kewl Tunes fucked everything up again). How come I never see anyone actually admit to liking modern yugioh except me? Like come on, it's gotta tickle your bacon a little bit when you go full combo and completely cuck someone from playing or going second and you duel puzzle your way through breaking their board and then OTKing them. No? Even the non games where it's well fuck you I droll you is quick rather than 8 turns of passing because you brick and then your opponent hits you with his Neos Alias for game.

>>98093585
My friends and I have stuck casual pseudo-retro yugioh for years because we can chat and bullshit as we play. Those eight turns breeze by. You so play with your friends, don't you?

I have an insane idea. Give me your thoughts.
>Yu-Gi-Oh: Shadow Game
>Format in which only certain new cards are allowed. These cards are made specifically for this format, but as always, are legal in Advanced Format as well.
>Cards are available in Core Booster Sets as replacements for the common, shitty cards that have no current use; with three in each pack and are marked with a stamped millennium eye in the text box.

>Battle Draft has two players split a 24-pack Core Set Booster Box, with each opening 12 packs, drafting one of the three SG cards and leaving the other two for their opponent.

>BD mode will be replacing pre-release events going forward.
>King of Games mode is a rotating, single set Format, using only SG cards.
>Duels are played under the Advanced Format ruleset.
>KoG mode games that are played at OTS and recorded in Neuron reward players with "Star Chips" for both the winner and loser, with the winner receiving more.
>At the end of each format players will receive rewards based on their Star Chip count. Best in store receives both free prizing and the OTS gets stipend from konami. Best in nation receives a bye at the WCQ that year as well as prizing.

Basically a format that can lure people into buying sealed product. Something you can play with your friends who are interested in Yu-Gi-Oh but will have a heart attack when they see something like $100 Fydraulis Harmonia.

>>98093732
Fucking up core sets even further is a bad idea. Just bring back Battle Packs as 15-card fatpacks instead. You buy 2-3 yourself and that's your deck or you can buy more and draft them around the table.

>>98093764
core sets are currently the least impactful and worst performing product. they're consistently bad, with maybe 10-20 meta impacting cards in them at a time. they need to be shaken up, badly.

>>98093764
>bring back Battle Packs
Thats stupid. The reason draft works in MTG from a consumer sense is that you're opening core sets while drafting. You're buying product that you can use in another format once you're done with the draft. Battle pack cards are trash once the draft is over, they have no application anywhere else.

>>98093773
And you think side formats, which have all performed terribly so far because Konami is shit, are the answer to fix them?

>>98092899

>Mill 4, summon Catapult Turtle off of the mills if possible
>Xyz into Draglubion, Special Summon Numeron Dragon with its effect
>Tribute Summon Catapult Turtle if you didn't summon him with ZV. Surrender if you couldn't put it in your hand with Ice Barrier.
>Kill your opponent

It is luck based, loses to interruption, and a lose condition is simply not having Catapult Turtle on your field. But if you want a braindead retard deck, that's the one.

>>98093804
I think that injecting any extra value into the core booster sets is a good move at this point. at least draft would be a reason to buy packs at all.

>>98093801
>le mtg
Mtg also doesn't have incomplete archetypes and legacy archetype support clogging up every core set. Splitting the difference means that autists continue getting cards they see as useless and casuals get cards they see as too complex. Case in point,
>they have no application anywhere else
Casual play

>>98093825
battle pack died because nobody bought it. casual play doesn't sell yu-gi-oh product, look at speed duel. cutting all the chaff that is clogging the core sets, and replacing that with a draftable sub-set is a win/win in my book. cards that were useless are gone, and the draft players can use their cards in sanctioned play after they're done drafting.

>>98092899
True draco [+/-stun]. It's maybe the most retard helmet deck that does something so you're not too bored but isn't trying to do anything crazy.
You set up what's refered to as a "Towers" (a big fucker with protection from most if not all effects) and play lower to the ground.
You don't need to know any other mechanics but tribute summoning really. Only gimmick is that the monsters have a clause that optionally lets you tribute backrow for them too.
It got some support recently so people have taken a look at the deck again and will have an up-to-date build.

>>98094001
Without enough support from both Konami and players, nothing will change. Nobody bought battle packs because competitive yugioh players aren't motivated to buy them, and this extends to every Konami side format. Without enough representation, any side format cards are pack filler at best. We'd genuinely benefit more from time wizard tournament packs with stuff like alt art to give them some semblance of value. Anything to avoid actual set rotation.

>>98094084
which is why they should put a sub-format of cards that rotate into the core sets. the ability to play a constructed version with a leaderboard is the extra motivation they need. combining that with the cards for Advanced that people are already going to buy the product for means that you're able to sell the one product to two markets.

A True Draco deck like >>98093053 suggested would be the most straightforward, even if not the most potent thing:

You can otherwise go big number hit hard with Tenpai (side deck is outdated but remove a Droll, add a Super Poly):
https://ygoprodeck.com/deck/sky-striker-tenpai-dragon-665141

You do still need to learn both decks a bit, but these are easier ones to play since they are fairly linear and mostly straightforward.

>>98094414
Enneacraft is also one more option, if you don't fear 2 text boxes that mostly say the same stuff:
https://ygoprodeck.com/deck/enneacraft-711880
It looks like a lot but the decks gameplay is "set 5 monsters" that can be flipped fave-up at different timings. There's a couple quirks to know, like how you can reveal 1 card repeatedly to set all the others, but the main thing to remember is the conditions to flip them face-up with.

I tried to get into digimon with the sakuyamon starter deck they released last december (not a furfag, tamers is the only season i watched), but the first few stores i went to didn't sell anything digimon, and the one that did flat out told me i'd be lucky to get a single game every few weeks, because he only knew two other guys that played the game, and one of them was more of a collector than anything (digimon doesn't censor anything).

I ended up boughtening a copy of the fallen and the virtuous instead instead, which is still unopened because full power branded is rather expensive (2x F&V and one kitt which are $10 a piece, 1x ecclesia of the black dragon which is $60, and 2x fallen of the white dragon which would set me back like 200 burgers).

>>98096004
debating on getting into digimon too. I tried Gundam for a bit but I don't actually like the game at all. Nothing really scratches the itch like Yu-gi-oh man. Almost every card game I tried tries to mog Magic instead but I kinda hate Magic mechanics with resource management.

>>98096273
I wish they continued doing these Dark Counterpart series of corrupted monsters

>>98096050
NTA but I'd recommend trying digimon. It's pretty close to being able to scratch the yugioh itch.
Just like in ygo almost every deck operates on an unique gameplay gimmick that is basically playing with an entirely seperate set of rules while still adhering to a core set of mechanics. Deck building is archetype focused with some rare chances of having another archetype overlap.

https://project-drasil.online/login
They have a few clients but the above is basically the dueling book equivalent. Nothing special, not trying to be too fancy, but keeps up with the card pool, has a test hands feature, and is true free.
The only thing is that doing test hands is a little strange because of the way the memory system works, I'd recommend rolling a d4 each "turn" as a sort of way to see how much memory you get that turn. It's not perfect but it's something.

Our heroes...

what is the air of elitism that exists in yugioh in person play? I've noticed it advancing over the years starting around 5ds. Calculator cases, spellgrounds, unique ways of laying the graveyard/banishment. It's like people try to come off as like elite/advanced but more times than not it's the worst players.

>>98098457
>unique ways of laying the gy/banish
Huh? It's to avoid sharking, graveyard cards are placed in their zone (usually fanned out), but a lot of mats don't designate the banishment, so people place them above the GY sideways, to avoid niggardly plays like banishing 10 with desires and then stealthily put them back in grave.
>that doesn't happen ever
It happens all the time at my locals, people banish their sole roze and then it turns out she was in the grave all along, even though they never discarded her with droplet or something.

You SHOULD in fact be wary of homos who keep a sloppy field, they always do shit like palm cards to put banished cards back in the grave, swap drawn bricks with cards they already used, and draw multiple cards. If they "mistakenly" keep their extra deck face up, you should tell them to flip that down ASAP or you'll call a judge, because it's almost a guarantee that he'll call one on you and try to pass it off as you illegally peeking at it.

>>98098457
The word you're looking for is performative or poser, not elitist.
This phenomenon is not exclusive to ygo, it shows up in most hobbies and such that have a competitive scene. People get it in their head that they will someday be some big shot in the game so they think they should load themselves up with a bunch of gear that "all the big players use" as well as their habits because the first step to being good in their mind is epic gear and habits rather than their play because it requires the least effort.
You'll see the exact same shit in sports for example, why do they need the expensive shoes and sport drinks? Because that's what the (((real))) players use!

It only came out mid-March in North America and late April in the EU and similar regions. Any decent structure deck that's that new would be spammed because you are getting an exact list of cards that can be worked off of. With Legendary Modern coming with two, and having a lot of general staples on top of all that...a lot of people are naturally going to be pointing to it.

>>98100021
It really depends on how you look at it since most (MOST) structure decks released since Albaz Strike have been good for their time, both in regards to onboarding newbies with staples and providing halfway decent engines for them to play with. I'm giving the nu-Charmer deck a lot of slack when I say that since it pulled the same trick as the last one, where it's just a means to get generic staples out to people.

You used to be able to recommend Albaz Strike on its merits. Same with Traptrix. Then you have the Fire King and BEWD SDs which both provided the cores that you could build off of, the Branded Chronicles deck that gave you a mostly-full Branded/Despia/Bystial package in one pull, and of course LD26. The more niche decks were tougher sells but absolutely not bad. The only genuine stinker out of the batch is the Crystal Beast deck, and also the nu-Charmer deck if you're not giving it leeway as a means to get generic staples out the door.

Anyway, they adjust with the times, is ultimately what I'm saying. As long as they don't pull a Rarity Collection with the next few Legendary Modern Decks sets, we should have decent starter products from now on.

>>98099127
Like the other anon mentioned, Legendary Modern Decks 2026 is your best bet. The Branded Chronicles deck (The Fallen & The Virtuous) is also a pretty decent jumping on point since it's not totally ready to be played out-of-the-box, but comes with most of the essentials for a Branded core.

A few little snippets I like to fire off for "I haven't played the game in over 20 years" gang
>Go in with an open mind
>WATCH GAMEPLAY FIRST
The game has changed a LOT in that timeframe. It's extremely fast-paced, turns are practically communal now, and bringing out super powerful bosses honestly isn't that big of a deal anymore. New players love the game for it because it has a flavor that you don't really get with other TCGs. Look at how things play out first and decide whether or not it's something you'd like to invest your time and/or money in, so that you don't become one of those poor souls that eternally seeth about the game not being what they vaguely remember it was 20 years ago when they were like 8 years old.

>TEST THE GAME OUT FIRST
Yugioh is the best among any TCG out there in how many digital auto-sims we have. Some people do not pay a cent to play the game because Konami just does not give a shit that we have access to every card that has been printed or will be printed for free. Multiple free sims are in the OP. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY BEFORE YOU TRY.

>Disregard the above if you have a TCG-going friend group that's willing to try the game out first
Yeah, it might be a bit of a tall order for you old timer, but friend groups kind of override that since you can curate your experience instead of getting thrown to the wolves with meta andies in online simulators that only wanna run the most powerful upcoming decks. If you have friends that play or are genuinely interested in trying, try it with them and the experience will be a lot nicer.

>>98101255
Also, there's multiple communities for legacy formats, but I implore you to either try the modern game first, or view some replays and/or tournament footage to determine whether or not you'd wanna try the game first. It's another one of those traps for people that eternally seeth about modern and make it everyone else's business to know that they hate modern. Like what you want but don't crap on other peoples' cakes.

I would put an addendum to this of making sure to look up what decks are currently good or rogue and look for gameplay of those rather than go for any gameplay. There's a lot of clip farming decks that can show off a lot but have like a 1/100 chance of ever being able to start their gameplan.

If it's any consolation I doubt it's going to be that expensive assuming they do the UR and STAR thing again. It's from a mid archetype and not a generic staple so it will likely go for $20-30 like we have right now.

currently thinking about three different type of decks (just getting back into it) but im shit builder so anyone willing to suggest any changes to the following decks, appreciate it if you do.

link to decks: https://imgur.com/a/n2EyFTf

>>98105258
>It's from a mid archetype
That's getting some of the most unholy support in the world and rubs elbows with Aleister "Look at your opponent's Extra Deck and Unicorn 3" the Reminiscent in the critical mass of spellcaster soup that's been brewing in the OCG. Not necessarily saying you're wrong, but it's a strong factor to consider.

>>98105351
While I can't exactly comment about the archetypes I can at least comment about some deck build theory with your staples. You either play max copies of them or play none. You want to be able to expect your deck to reliably provide the answers you packed. The 2-of "sometimes but not all the time" way of deckbuilding has been dead for ages now because it's proven worse.
I see those imperms, charmies, BoEs, etc for example. Pick some of them to keep, then drop another so you're able to fill to max on the selected. Your deck will generally perform better if you are more consistent rather than trying to do everything but inconsistently.

I can understand in physical if you pulled certain cards like crown and the droplets are there as filler for the other 2 crown because of the cost but for something like imperm or BoE that are cheap then you should be able to make those happen. I'm taking a good guess that's what is going on there for that card specifically.
A similar reasoning applies to something like TTTalent/TTThrust or duster/LS due to limits. But these are specific cases.

Amazoness got some pretty solid indirect support in some booster that released this year (don't remember which), but ninja is still the best deck out of those 3. That list is a bit suboptimal however.
>baku is a 1-of no matter what
>jioh is more useful as a 2-of (to cheat him out from deck with your traps)
>only dancing leaves and duplication are worth running
>book of moon can help your cards resolve
>the other field spell (forgot the name, but it doesn't have "ninjutsu" written anywhere, yet it is considered a ninjutsu card) is a lot more useful due to the untargeted pops
>borrelsword dragon can be more useful than accesscode to close out games due to the synergy it can have with iron digger and meizen
>mitsu + iron digger lets you cheat out a fusion insect that raigeki's the board during the damage step

>>98106371
I think it's fine to go for 2ofs as long as they max out on Fuwas. Fuwa and Maxx Sneed are what enable people to do that in the OCG. It's a reasonable risk to take since resolving 1 or 2 fuwas will pretty much guarantee that any tech you'd want in your deck will end up in your hand. That being said, they aren't maxing out on Fuwas, and they're not running builds that can really work with 2ofs since they don't really dig out of their decks the way they'd need to.

>>98105351
The most functionally decent one among them would be the Ninja deck. I'm not privvy to Ninja builds, someone else might be able to give stronger advise, but I will say that you should drop the Purulia in favor of a third Fuwa for the reasons I mentioned above. Forbidden Crown is also a pretty expensive staple right now, so if it's in your budget, I would just get a third Droplet and wait until Crown gets a reprint before running it. That's just me though because I am a cheapskate, you do you.

All of your decks could also stand to fit in 1 SP Little Knight 1 TY-PHON. One of them is in there but the other isn't, and TY-PHON is basically just a middle finger to anything that is either untargetable or has 3k+ ATK.

Amazoness is pretty bad and whatever you're doing with that Slifer Horus build will basically drag down the Horus parts of the deck. I'd honestly recommend doing something with Primite if you're insistent on running the Slifer goon squad, or just dropping them entirely to see what can be done with a Horus package.

>>98106371
There are some situations where 2 ofs still show up. However, they are also signficantly more situational, and they tend to fall into two categories:
>very specific engine requirements or accessibility
>(theoretical) hard once per turn management
The latter is covered in this video, and is mostly in theory, but it posits that having more than 7 playsets of 3 cards of Hard Once Per Turn cards can give you some diminishing returns due to the increasing probability of drawing multiple copies of the same HOPT cards:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dVQ3xNpOS4
Of note is that this may shifting a bit from the calculations of the time due to the Turn 0 cards that can be used on either turn.

>>98106422
what card is this?

>>98105351
Another thing; If the Slifer parts aren't as important as the Knights, you have the option of splashing Slifer and a card that searches it into a Clown Crew build instead. They're basically a different flavor of Monarchs that can put out fodder and tribute summon on quick effect speed. Tradeoff is that it locks you out of activating the effects of monsters that were summoned from the extra deck (their ED monster effects all activate in the GY to get around that), but it also has really strong removal (it bounces all Fusion/Synchro/Xyz/Link monsters from the field+GY to the extra deck, depending on the tributed monster) and is surprisingly resilient for a casual deck. Only downside is that you can't consistently search Slifer since the only decent search card for it (Quick Summon) isn't even released yet, but the rest of the package can carry.

I'd recommend running The Wicked Avatar instead of Slifer if you do that, though. That thing can just auto-win games since it's a multi-turn backrow stun when it's tribute summoned, and also has Moon Mirror Shield built into it for manga-related reasons. Slifer, on the other hand, can pretty easily be played around. An imperm or effect veiler can stop Wicked Avatar's lock (you can quick effect tribute it in Clown Crew), regular gameplay can kill Slifer. They are not the same.

>>98106624
Historically yes, but generally no. Slifer's floodgate effect does more for your endboard, even if it's easy for any deck whose life DOESN'T depend on their normal summon or link monsters to play around, but neither of them are particularly good to build around though, because they just don't bring quite enough to the table.

>>98106431
>It's fine because they're on fuwa
These decks aside you still want the best odds to hit those cards. Even something like KT currently that loves it's lv3 tuner handtraps would rather play 3 ofs rather than include something like ghost mourner for more unique names. It's a very rare exception and nowhere close to a norm.
>>98106487
I've seen this video. But I don't give it a lot of credit due to the fact that it's just not a theory that pans out very well and lacks practical evidence that works.
Look at Jesse's recent list. He's got 3 ofs for all his staples but illusion gate (note the 3rd droplet is in the side). And the runner up is on max for his stuff. Consistency is the most valuable thing.

All the terminal world cards (shaddoll, tellarknight and dragunity) seem to be short printed as well, so good luck getting cores on the cheap. And since the pool is bloated with ugly chibis and useless reprints (like fucking shapesnatch), getting the few useful ones (lacrima, tract, requiem and seventh tachyon) will be absurdly hard. This set seems to be even worse than last year's battles of legend, somehow.

I'm aware of it's support. But I don't think it's going to be enough in the metagame that it's expected to release in.
I want you to keep in mind the support for lunalight and unchained, and the new blitzclique and chaos ritual stuff. I struggle to see it keeping up with those. Note that this is TCG dependent. I guess we will know in 2-3 weeks if WC has some capacity for OCG current meta.

I do want to get ahead of one thing though, the OCG is a bunch of lolicons so I suspect that it will have high representation for different reasons. And I will guess some of that bias is also ITT.

>>98111282
>Lunalight
They can keep up with it as long as the pilot isn't one of those people that were gaslit into thinking that Bystreet is a bad card. Being able to protect from the first Liger and then fully recover your board after the second one does its thing goes a long way. The only thing they have trouble with is dealing with Bagooska (unless it's also banned in the TCG by the time those cards release here), but a Marka in grave can deal with that when Liger goes off.

>Unchained
Their new support doesn't do a whole lot against WC that they weren't already doing. That matchup basically boils down to how consistently you can put 1haine on the field to jingle keys over their mostly-targeted card effects (Abominator, Syncretism, Soul of Rage, etc), or how quickly you can put the second one on the field to invalidate most of their kit. Plus, you can pretty easily outgrind them just by using Celebration a couple of times (which as a reminder, can be done up to thrice per turn thanks to the new fusion monster)

>Chaos Ritual
That matchup lives and dies off of their ability to get Mind Shuffle off of the field, and a surprising lot of post-Walpurgis Witchcrafter builds have been running Draping. I won't posture and say that it's a simple thing to deal with, but it has pretty clear weaknesses that you can take advantage of since your removal isn't strictly destructive in nature.

>Blitzclique
I don't have enough experience playing against them to comment on it.

Also, I'm saying this in regards to playing through their established boards, rather than how they handle when you already have a fully established board. If they're running a Spellcaster Soup build, that can implicitly mean that they're running Aleister "Unicorn is Limited? Hold my beer..." the Remniscent and his engine that unicorns 3. Lunalight simply does not recover from that, and Unchained loses a lot of its power from that kind of rip. It's a fair thing to consider.

>>98111339
Buying singles is always the cheapest option

>>98111339
It's almost always going to be better to buy singles especially if you're looking for a playset of anything. I'd say buy like $20 of packs just to scratch the itch, and then buy singles after that. You're likely to lose 80% of your money/value but at least at $20 you're not out much

Did you forget how all of TCG wrote off tenpai and mitsurugi as shitty archetypes not worth anything? If OCG says a certain deck is good, you can be damn sure they're not speaking out of their ass, as they actually do play the fuck out of the game, more to the point, they constantly hold tournaments with all sorts of weird rules (like no banlist) in order to understand the true potential of any given deck.

Verrepile is good.
Ritual of light and darkness is good.
Blitzclique is incomplete (locking you out of the extra deck is an incredibly harsh condition for how mediocre the payoff is, harmonia and all).
Unchained is good.
Toon is beyond broken, this deck is going to be reigned in by banning the trap card and warlock ASAP.

>>98112844
If we're gonna tit for tat, for relatively recent examples the OCG missed Tear (which is maybe the best deck in history) and unchained's later wave. I don't think either region is going to be perfect.
On top of that, each region getting card releases as different times or exclusive waves. Just as an example, the OCG doesn't have the lunalight support release confirmed yet afaik so we might have that before their meta does and could cause an upset in the meta whenever it drops assuming it goes meta.
>They play all these weird rules like no banlist
We both know this point is wrong and not how people are figuring out what's good in a meta EXCEPT if you technically count the entire globe testing formats ahead of time with no hits to any upcoming deck because we don't know for certain what's getting hit. Meaning this isn't something the OCG has over the TCG.
IE people testing with rose whip in KT but it ending up never actually being in the format.

>This game is sacky and hard to keep track in physical. Very easy to rulebreak and it's so awkward to be like "no you can't do that" without people getting annoyed.
>Meta WIDELY shifts where banlist can make your $400-500 deck a god damn brick or now some other meta deck just sits on your ass.
I'm thinking about trying some other card games first to get myself used to the local environment again before going back to yugioh.

>>98114729
It would be the strongest still. A lot of people are intimidated by kewl tunes but the truth of them is they have a relatively low ceiling. They have easy access to many kinds of powerful effects but not all at the same time, they have at least some commitment. This is why I've been able to beat them with magnets and R.B in Master Duel

Tears just plays forever only stopped by a gy floodgate or a bad gy dump(extremely unlikely at full power)

The short answer is there really isn't. As mentioned, manamoon has some but as also mentioned, anything in preorder can take forever. You're pretty safe if you buy any of your existing stock though. FWIW my only experience with them is the invoked line of stuff they did and I didn't have any issues with the sleeves besides them being warped but not damaged. After putting a card in them they were perfectly fine though and after like a month of being compressed to also straighten the foil card they went flat too even after being removed.

>>98114729
It'd be the strongest but the difference is that it would not be peerless. Biggest difference is that a lot of decks have their turn 0 bullshit these days, and as long as they can stop Tearlaments from kickstarting their obscenely consistent engine, they will win without necessarily having to run the typical counters (bystials/shifter/etc).

Tear gets their engine kickstarted and it's a nodiff sweep.
Tear doesn't get their engine kickstarted, and it's a toss-up.

>>98118658
>turn 0 plays with handtrap playmakers
The ironic thing is that Tear does too.

Please just do a set rotation already

>awh jeez... these cards that are being tailored for the upcoming releases and is forecast to be a meta threat look so powerful and fun... but wouldn't you know it, all these other decks that are coming out before it that are gonna have cards hit on the banlist are so strong! I wish they'd do a set rotation so that absolutely nothing would change.

>>98120089
If your idea is that with rotation every card is somehow going to be lower in power, it would also incluse these toon cards as well. They wouldn't be what they are currently in your hypothetical rotation world.
And lets say they kept them as is but was a part of a rotation block of 2 years. That means they are still competing with other current designs at time of release.
Toon """fans""" really are the dumbest.

Are cloth mats good or a meme ? Thinking of buying one

>>98120089
I used to think rotation helped, but then I look at MTG and not only did cards became more and more broken anyway but competitives will cry about nerfs and lowered sales if the power level actually did drop.
Rotation can't make up for bad design or lack of design sense.

I just found out Don Zaloog was released in 2003 when I looked at some retro decks. I always thought he was a GX era card.

>>98120881
Also I found out nepthys was a 2005 card.

Watching Zexal and Shark and Kite seem redundant as rival duelists. They have very similar motivations (helping a sibling) and personality (I don't want to be friends with you), the only real diff was that Kite is working for a big organization and Shark is a freelancer.

>>98120973
100%, but they'll still be $20 a piece unless they get reprinted in a rarity collection. This is a useful engine however, so expect a prismatic reprint in next year's tin equivalent, then another secret reprint in some main set, and finally a ultra/RA reprint in a side set/BoL.

Assuming you mean a 2 player one. The first thing you should know is that most people don't want to play on your mat. Either because they don't want to risk something happening to it, they don't like it (IE card corners snagging), they want to use their own mat, or some combination of those. So most often you're going to be folding the mat in half for just yourself to use.
If it's expensive and artsy you also need to be comfortable with using it. Specifically the part of half of the art side being face down into the table.
I think they're a little bit of a meme in the sense that they're a vanity item more than a practical one but they are nice mats in general and if you have a coffee/cards table you can use it permanently on it.

I own one and I've used it a total of two times in public after the above first situation played out both of times so I just stopped bringing it. Kind of felt like a waste of money in the practical ngl.

>>98120910
Fuck i hit post too soon, what i wanted to say is that shark's dynamic with yuma is very interesting, he doesn't exactly hang out with him, but he's always there when he needs him. Yuma's attitude irritates him most of the time, but he also admires him for it. People say shark becoming a barian emperor was an asspull, but it only strengthens their relationship as now he feels even more conflicted about the whole thing, since he clearly wishes they could fight some villain together and fix things while remaining friends, but their interests don't align in the slightest, one needs to die in order for the other to succeed.

Their last duel is honest to god kinography due to this, particularly yuma's last move where he decides that even though he really needs to win in order to fix things, he's not gonna kill his friend to do so. A lot of people dislike the whole duel because every single card featured in it has a very specific effect meant to perfectly counter a certain card, but what they don't understand is that this is how gallop chose to depict a typical shounen fistfight.

tl;dr watch ZEXAL II, there's a curated guide out there for I, but i don't have it on my phone

Most likely not. If it's an OTS store then you'll wanna run it by a head judge since you could just make the argument that it's a misprint from the Battle City Finals box. If it isn't an OTS store then it really just boils down to the community, but chances are people just won't care.

Funny you mention this. I just got my box.

I am currently playtesting to see if the decks are balanced. How is Marik ever supposed to win against Joey with the Battle City Slugger skill? Unless the Joey player is a huge moron and floods his board with monsters (to tribute for Lava Golem or Sphere Mode), I really can't see matches where Marik wins. Joey can just use the second effect of the skill to piss out Gilford the Lightning which, in combination with all the attack boosts, can climb over even Metal Reflect Slime.
I'd really like to play Marik when I actually play this with friends, so what am I supposed to do when facing Joey?

Call me stupid but how do I keep bulk cards? I bought a couple of binders at a time and it fits around 1.5 booster boxes which is fine but I feel like there's a cheaper more efficient way to do this without getting like 6-7 different binders of pack filler. I could get the 5 row cardboard boxes and shit but how are they like $50 on Amazon...

>>98126836
unironically, isn't the Joey Skill meta? IIRC it should be used with an armed dragon build though.

>>98127322

>Carrying bulk
I'd ask you, why are you in the first place? It's worthless and very few people want or need it. You only need to carry bulk for maybe stuff that people are wanting to build at the current time. If someone is looking for something in bulk just say that you can look for it and give it to them next time you see them or leave it at the store for them assuming the staff are ok with holding the cards for them.
Buy a 2 row bulk box usually refered to as "shoebox" size and it can hold almost 6 booster boxes (depends on the sets, some contain more or less cards) worth of cards. Ask your LGS if they sell them before going to amazon, you'll likely get a roughly equal if not better deal as they're buying them in bulk.
I personally prefer the 2 row boxes because they are easier to manage, the 5 row ones when full weigh a shit ton and are not easy to move or store.

>>98127322
If you have old megatins, you can put your old bulk in there. I'd just recommend buying or re-using old boxes depending on how much you have. Maybe do a little bit of arts & crafts with some cardboard to make yugioh-sized bulk boxes to hold all your old stuff.

Not really sure what that has to do with you putting bulk in binders but sure, enjoy your pack opening.
One thing I would recommend is buying in conjunction with bulk boxes is trading card dividers. You could also use note cards you cut yourself too but you get ao many and they're cheap enough that it doesnt matter IMO. It will let you seperate by set and the color code is helpful, and you can sharpie the set code on the part that sticks out above the cards.
I also use them in deck boxes to seperate my deck+extra deck from my side deck.
https://a.co/d/04QDqzUE

>>98129166
They were until about 2023, yes. Most of the cards would be printed in lower rarities which made them more accessible, but then Konami started printing megatin cards in identical rarities along with cramming as many cards into them as humanly possible. It was basically impossible to use them to get cards at any rarity.

>>98129166
Depended on the contents. They used to come with promos which where often worth it simply because you for sure got a select card especially the 2019 tin that has Nibiru, Shifter, and DRNM. (tbf this is in hindsight, at the time we didn't appreciate it enough)
The issue is that the card pools being so large and desired cards that were high rarity before were high rarity again in the tin didn't help get those cards in the hands of people who wanted them. Rarity collections now feel like what the tins should have been except for maybe the cost-per-card.
Still not eure what to think about MAMO replacing the tin since we don't know the entire set yet.

Need advice for my Master Duel deck. My target end board with this is co-linked Transcode Talker and Borrelcode Dragon, and I can get that on about 90% of hands that pull Raptor or a way to search it. Better hands I can Link Masquerena into Transcode for more protection. I want to either be able to do that more consistently, add a negate to my board, or not be completely fucked going up against a single monster negate stopping Raptor's effect.

I feel like using the alt skill (Pulling the Strings) and also taking out Phoenix and vanilla Ra before the Duel (to have a 20 card deck) works a lot better.
It gives more consistent monster draws to stall and you can clog his field. Also makes Lava Golem safe since it can't damage you.

anon, it is even more important in master duel to NOT go for high ceiling/high roll builds because best of 1 means you're at the mercy of a not-so-random RNG that can and WILL fuck you over by making you draw all your garnets
maximize your important 3-ofs
don't go for hyper specific 1-ofs that lead to giga boards
make sure you always have a plan for droll and fuwa/maxx
keep a healthy balance of engine and handtraps/boardbreakers (unless you're something like ryzeal mitsurugi which used to be able to push past a shit ton of handtraps)

still, your deck could always be better, or do you like normal summoning something and then not being able to do a thing because the rest of your hand is nothing but garnets? i play meme decks too, traptrix for example, that deck also lives and dies by its normal, but you can always bolster sera pass with blowout traps or an engine that lets it summon another disruption and gives it a bit of grindgame

went to a regional today and went 1-3 dropped and then lost the first games of both win a mat side events. I didn't even play bad I literally could not do anything except brick. When I did have plays I was always met with one of cards. The game is frustrating but it's amazing that I still want more

There's no difference between masquerade and sentry as a target for seventh tachyon in ryzeal, right? The price difference is insane at my locals ($10 vs $2) yet both search ice and ext, plus sentry could be useful in exosister if i ever get around to building that deck (grabs all the nuns and ichiki).

I genuinely don't think anyone has ever used the card to search for a level 4 spellcaster.

Please tell me you didn't read this effect as "when slifer is normal summoned, you and the opponent can't do anything else for the rest of the duel". Because that would invalidate his other effect of destroying monsters with 2000 ATK or less. EVEN THE FUCKING ANIME SHOWED YOU HOW SLIFER WORKS.

It's not the most popular format but the way I see it is if you can build one for about $30 you're not out that much money even if you never end up using it.
The one thing I wouldn't do is spend a bunch of time trying to figure it out. Either netdeck something or make a list you kind of like in under a week and buy that. You can get more money but you can't get more time.

I'm going to presume that you're not super interested in the format either since you're posting that you're on the fence. If that's the case then maybe you shouldn't right now.

I don't think anyone actually plays traditional format. In my 20+ years of playing I don't think I've ever seen a real tournament ran for it, much less someone say "We should play trad. format". Most I can remember is a locals hosting it as like an april fools thing like a decade ago and never since then.

On top of that. There's really not a reason for it to exist now that genesys is a thing and [[[theoretically]]] permits you to play these banned cards. Besides your FTK of choice needing a link monster or is over the point limit.
