*trivializes your game*
>>730604550Sad description
>>730604550>A fiend with dark powers for confusing the enemyPic: Summoned Skull confusing the enemy.
>>730604550>Muh SUMMONED SKULLI played early 2000s yugioh games and reached 100+ wins with 3x firewing pegasus without drawing skull once. Vorse Raider and lvl 4 1800+ ATK monsters were arguably way bigger threats because you could summon them for free.
>>730604550his actual name is deamon
>>730604785They planned poorly. They later gave halfhearted attempts to wank him several times via Archfiend in GX and then later psychic in 5Ds (weird that they chose him for this over Jinzo).Not sure why he got the short stick.
For me, it's Slate Warrior
>>730604550Why didn't everyone just do this?
>>730605236It's weird how little good support Jinzo got over the years, he was a popular guy
>>730605068>lvl 4 1800+ ATK monsterswhat were they thinking?
>>730604550I wonder if the game would have worked better if an attacking monster was destroyed if its defense was lower than its target's attack.Then you'd have to think twice about semding out shit with huge attack and tiny defense. That way Summoned Skull + Axe of Despair would have a downside instead of just rolling over everything.
>>730606215>Can just stall skull forever by destroying every low level monster to prevent tribute summon.>Bajillion ways of removal>Magic jammer/MST multiple ways to destroy/negate spellsAnd most importantly>Both cards were UR or even secret rare in their heyday so getting even 1 copy of either card was very unlikely.
>>730606856Skull came in SDY though so every Timmy and Bimmy had one copy at least
>>730606856>>Both cards were UR or even secret rare in their heyday so getting even 1 copy of either card was very unlikely.I didn't know that, so that's why I guessI just played the TCG with friends before I had internet
>>730606215>requires a tributeplay the superior vanilla
>>730606986Speaking of starter decks Joey's starter deck with 1000 dragon and flame swordsman were the only cards I had for a long time. I think when I was trying to get into the game during the synchro era, I played the deck against fucking blackwings and machina (and got destroyed pretty badly lol).
>>730606841I've had that idea before. It would make Dark Magician a reason to be played over Summoned Skull if Skull could just get knocked out by Celtic Guardian. Would also lead to some interesting cases like Vorse Raider always losing to Giant Soldier of Stone.I guess one problem would be mirror matches. If both players have Blue Eyes on the field, then the winner is just whoever gets to attack first.I still think it would be a fun house rules game to try. If I knew anyone that still played Yugioh that is.
>>730604550>play the games with the /v/ meme in mind of how busted summoned skull is>the CPU's actually run an obnoxious amount of removal and traps, summoned skull ends up becoming a hindrance because wasting an entire turn tribute summoning instead of playing another 1800+ beater is dogshit>jinzo ended up being significantly better and is even limited in most of the gamesAre people's only memories of the game when the very first set launched and they only played with starter deck yugi?
>>730607457>If both players have Blue Eyes on the field, then the winner is just whoever gets to attack first.I mean the other way way round. Like if a Summon Skull attacks a Celtic Guardian then both would be destroyed.So a Blue Eyes mirror both would still be destroyed regardless of who attacks first.
>>730606215Equip Malevolent Nuzzler and you still clear 3K with a much more reasonable cost of LP if you choose to recycle it. Tributing one monster isn't worth it unless that shit is Sangan/WotB or a flip monster you already used. Even then, that's less tribute fodder and bodies for your next plays.The real noob trap was Horn of the Unicorn. Fucker taught me you have to let things go.
>>730607887For me it was ritual summoning the burger.
>>730604550>(This card is always treated as an "Archfiend")
>>730605021Wha-... Where did it go. And don't tell me there's a hole in the table that it slides through.
>>730606834They weren't. I like old YGO more than the modern game but the entire history of the game has been Konami just vomiting out cards without much thought. It took awhile for it to even become a game.
>>730606841That's how it worked in the first bandai version of the game and I think maybe in the first time the game was played in the manga. That combo really wasn't even that strong even in the old days though because monster removal was always so easy. I mean raigeki or mirror force or fissure or some shit, boom, problem solved.
>watch "1 card yummy combo">it's just the sangan - halqdon comboI guess herald of the arclight is new but it's way better to just link off the herald to search habakiri rather than sit on it
>>730604785How would YOU have written it?
>>730609214If you already have Habakiri you just sit on Herald
>>730606841defender's advantage tends to make the game more stally and less fun.If you wanna punish attacks just use flip monsters
>>730605021>YGO card has space for flavor textThose were the days...
>>730607887most people played yugioh when they were kids so odds are they didn't even know you had to tribute
>>730607887If Jinzo is already out then yeah, you're past the brief period where summoned Skull is worth using.
>>730607887>instead of playing another 1800+ beatersure because they are inmune to fissure ;)summoned skull is an old joke from the early days when konami expected you to build around dark magician and blue eyes.He was the best monster of his time not counting la jinn or mechanicalchaser. He was immediately replaced by jinzo when he came out.
>>730612001>sure because they are inmune to fissure ;)Do you really not understand how much worse it is to get a level 4 vs a level 6 fissure'd?
>>730607327I'm more of a Dark Elf and Jirai Gumo fan, LP is a resource afterall, as long as you have more than 0 it's fine.
>>730612390do you?
>>730612696I do understand. That's why I'm pointing it out.
>>730612390>level 4Imagine if it was a level 3 Sangan instead.
>>730612753>I do understand.highly unlikely. There were plenty of defensive options at the time, and 1800s were far from the better choices.
>>730612901That has nothing to do with a monster that costs a tribute and a second normal summon being more costly to lose to a removal spell than a single non-tribute normal summonable monster.Why are you even trying to find a way to wiggle out of that obvious fact?
>>730604550
>>730613054because is not a fact, because i never stated that, because i know a shitter that gets btfo'd by basic mystic elf when i see it.
>>730613431>it's not fact that losing a Summoned Skull to a removal spell is worse than losing a level 4 beater>bro you should be playing Mystical Elflmao
>>730613431Realistically you'd probably still be running axe of despair, malovent nuzzler, horn of the unicorn, etc. at this point in the game. You shouldn't be getting walled out by a 2k wall.
>>730604550>negates all magic and ritual
>>730606215because i can't spell heisenburger totenkoff and axt der wafflelung
>>730611530This card was released in 2025 and saw competitive play.
>>730615678W-what happens if I open the lid?
>>730615763It's probably fine. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
>>730616171>t.
>go against Dracotail>they play MST?????
>>730617126Get out of Gold.
>>730617190Plat 4YOU LOSE THE ARGUMENT
>>730617234I'm so sorry... I didn't realize I was in the presence of a pro...
>>730617126Practicing lines for my secret tier 0 radiant typhoon dracotail list.
I'm already playing with 1 Maxx "C". Honestly the semi limit to Ash seems like a bigger deal.
>hold Droplet the entire turn going second against Mistu>never negate any of their effects with anything else>only use it at the end for its ATK halving effect>winTHIS IS WHAT SEPARATES BOYS FROM MEN
>>730604785even today, there're far fewer fiends with more than 2500 ATK than otherwise (effects don't count)
>>730618960Duelists be like "the battle phase doesn't matter anymore" until suddenly the battle phase matters a lot.
>>730618960Always remember that when attacking over an open field, to only drop Spright Gamma Burst during the damage step so the opponent dosn't imperm Gigantic Spright beforehand
>>730617126MST isn't actually terrible right now because it's backrow removal (if not super great at that) and it lets your own backrow dodge targeted negates like the Dracotail stuff or D/D/D Siggy if you blow up your own cards, I've seen a few Sky Striker guys playing it
>>730619336Cosmic is generally going to do a much better job, and I'd assume that if you're seeing Sky Striker players with MST that you're either looking at paper where they're playing it for the the synergy with Radiant Typhoon Visions, or in MD people who tried to copy lists from paper that are using Visions.I do agree though. Even if it's probably not the best, it's definitely not the worst. I think I'd prefer MST over like, Dark Ruler in a fair amount of decks right now.
>>730604550>No "This card is always treated as an 'Archfiend' card"Literally unplayable.
>>730606215everyone literally did do that though? its the meme summoned skull beatdown strategy for a reason
>>730617234>Plat 4That's Gold -1, niggy.
>>730620937>"Master 1 is just Gold -14, CHUD"
what deck completely fucks over mitsuragi and dracotail? I want both to suffer a painful death

Is it worth it to buy the gold duel pass on maser duel.
>>730604550That's not Jinzo
>>730622798It's easy to max out and the gems you receive from the gold half of the rewards equal exactly what it costs to get the gold pass. So absolutely, yes.Even if you only like 1/3 complete it it's probably still worth it because of how many UR points you get from it and how valuable those are.
>>730622948>JinzoENTER
>>730621642What. Yummy is awful into Dracotail, what are you talking about?
>>730622798Yes. Its roughly a 5700 gem value.

>>730615763Do NOT open the lid
>>730623157Every Yummy variant ends on Herald + Elf at the very least. Herald hard FUCKS Dracotail by banishing the fusion mats sent from hand and Elf prevents Arthalion from targeting it for the bounce.
>>730622798It's 100% a must

Is Summoned Skull a hero or a villain? Despite his demonic appareance I always found him pretty heroic, everytimes he appeared in the anime he had a hero vibe.

>>730633970>"Zombyra">art says "Zombire"
>>730634207This card is an adaptation of a chapter in the original manga where a nerdy kid is obsessed with Zombyre, who is a vengeful dark hero, kinda like The Spectre, and Yugi or Atem sets up a charade that leads him to think he met Zombyre, or is Zombyre, or something. I think his presence in the meta peaked with Roy St. Claire’s control deck.

>>730635153>>730635212>>730635292Completely solid extenders, but ultimately unnecessary in their respective decks. These don't solve any problems, but turning any normal summon into a Link 2 is nice. Will be used but won't elevate.>>730635250Absolutely insane Pendulum card that does solve problems. 100% will be used.>>730635097>>730635052Dogshit. Kuriboh is completely worthless, even if it summons Power Patrons. Maybe Skull Servant can tech one as a meme.Any deck can use Winged Kuriboh at the end of their combo to set Super Poly, which is funny but not worth it.

>>730636807They keep forgetting to put restrictions on cards and eventually it goes too far.Notice how they've switched to "for the rest of this turn" as their main limiter.
>>730636862isn't it "you cannot special summon any monster this turn but <archtype> and its attribute"
>>730637057See these new cards alone:>also you cannot Special Summon from the Extra Deck for the rest of this turn, except “HERO” monsters.>also you cannot Special Summon from the Extra Deck for the rest of this turn, except Synchro Monsters.>you cannot Special Summon for the rest of this turn, except Cyberse monstersThey're all "rest of turn" instead of "this turn".Meaning you're free to go full combo, then also use these cards. Or do shenanigans like wait until your opponent's turn.It's a huge part of the reason why we keep getting sloppile decks.
>>730605021The real confusion was the naming of the Archetype, which is just Demon in Japanese. English localized it into Archfiend, but Summoned Skull and his early fusions miss out unless specified because they never changed his name in English.Just rename Summoned Skull to Summoned Archfiend and replace Skull with Archfiend in those fusion names and it would be fine, but they never did, and here we are.
