HE won.
>>537948240Here you go anon, I'll let you stare at my royal white since you didn't get any
>>537950301I really hope they do what they've been doing and put the Gem-Knight support onto its secret pack as soon as it drops, feels like a really good thing they've been doing
>>537950301Master Diamond is such a fucking cool card. One of the best examples of a fucking BOSS monster in the entire series.
>>537950878ok but what does it actually do thoughlooks like a stat stick only
>>537952898you use it to copy the effects of other Fusions you've cycled through, before the new support this is how you would FTK people by copying Lady Lapis Lazuli's effect
>>537950301no one wanted that
>>537952898He copies effects, most notoriously Lapis Lazuli's burn effectLapis Lazuli is a soft OPT so you cycle her twice and use Master Diamond's copy to FTK>>537953907t. got humbled by THE MASTER
when are we getting more branded support
is it a black goat meta?>discard from your hand, declare detonator>discard from your hand, declare white binder
>>537954102copies gem-knight fusion***** effectsgem-knight only and you have to banish the target from your GY
>>537954151the structure deck comes out next month with 2 or 3 new cards
>>537954202yes floodgates are always good
>>537954202Well, going first, its good
>>537954764if your deck can discard it it's good too
so is tearlament with the new gem knights gonna be good or is it just cope
>>537954953good second too*
>>537954202>declare white binderuseless cause this card exists
>>537955492>mirrorjade at home
>>537950301Would gem knights actually be good or is it another deck that dies to the endless Maliss Shilling.
Decks for this feel?
>>537956551Swordsoul
>>537955594>dodge targeting + can be immune to negates + non-target banish any type of card every turn + OTK alone + perfect synergy with Accesscode + recycle cards trapped in banishment>Mirrorjaderetard.
>>537956551Traptrix
>>537956551floo
reminder that ryzeal is a shit deck that wouldn't even be tiered without the floodgates
>>537957371I've yet to see a floodgate build of the deck.The most I've seen is it mixed with Labrynth
>>537957851>lancea>droll>bagooskaall are common are there for most of the builds. the deck is pure fucking garbage without them.
>>537950301Do malice decks/combos REQUIRE non malice links to get to an endboard?
>lanceaall you can do, ryzeal subhuman.
When
>>537958735I thought maliss endboard is firewall dragon?
>a fucking axe
it's fucking ridiculous. the deck can do absolutely nothing but activate droll or maxx c or make bagooska
>>537960347I don't mean the board at end of turn. I mean the steps to get there, do I absolutely need the code talkers, kuribohs, etc?
>>537961658yeah whatever helps you shit out link materials like link decoder/splash mage etc
Nice game, Konami.
>>537962025just deck him out
>>537962145I don't think you can deck someone out using Maliss.
>>537962025just pass turn and hope he bricked. fuck no you're not getting 3 draws from me
>>537962928he's drawing 3 for every special summonthat's 19 summons to deck out an opponent who started with a 60 card deckor 12 against a 40 card deckreally not that many
Do we have Arcana Force list from worlds or no?
>>537964214you don't know how those cards work
>>537964691YOU don't know how the GAME worksSOMETIMES you have to CHANGE PLANS ON THE FLY and take advantage of a different win condition than originally intendedA COWARD would hard pass into a normal summon robinaA TRUE DUELIST would continue playing and simply win regardlessNibiru? doesn't existother handtraps? who cares it's 2025 boardbreakers? that means they don't have handtraps and you're free to summon a gorillion more timesJUST WINSTOP BEING A COWARDJUST WIN
stop having a melty
Didn't everyone who pulled Ryzeal brick their accounts? It's pretty average in the yummy and vanquish soul meta.
>>537966213>It's pretty average in the yummy and vanquish soul meta.yummy and VS won't come to MD for another 6 months or so
>lose flip>opp goes>ryzeal>droll them>end turn>make play>they maxx c>ash it>opp concedesyeah im thinking, this game sucks
>>537966213Maybe you should take a long look at the banlist differences
How fun is Kashtira?
ryzeal is such a boring fucking deck
when's mitsurugi?
>>537967076negative fun levels since diablosis got banned
>>537962025>just shotgunning them allProbably a bad player and is begging to be shut down by nothing but hand traps by starting his turn with a half-sized hand.
i am tired of this fraud
>>537964508
>>537954329will it be the same like the one they’re offering for free rn or something totally new
will Branded be playable pure again with the new support or is it perma doomed for 60 card slop piles
>>537969461>branded>slopbranded exclusively runs branded cards retard
When is hero support?
>>537970287Next year probably
>>537969461playing 40 is probably not going to happen
>>537959706>confirmed to not be real women>weapon is an axeWhat did they mean by this?
>>537971138>mom i posted it again
imma play 11 maxx c gem knight and otk you with the knights that one dyke from arc v played who shun countered her epic lapis by banishing a bird i forget and then yuzu killed her then she gave her that useless as fuck flower card shes a big jobber almost as bad at yuto dying like 10 episodes in lmao
>>537971351Why are you going to play the bad charmies?
>>537971351Everyone's on droll rn (right now)
Kek. I was so surprised when he suddenly summoned Duo Drive.
>>537971576Usually I'd expect them to go into Merrymaker but Duo Drive makes a lot of sense.
>>537971475its funny but i only have 2 of the cats and i wont craft a third
>>537950463
I find Ryzeal Mitsurugi interesting but not pure Ryzeal. Convince me to open Ryzeal packs.
>>537972941No.
>>537971138look like dual wielding swords to me?
>>537973496
>>537971351shut up, she's yuzu's love interest cum rival
Imagine master duel but with actual random draws.
>>537961253
>>537974079imagine master duel but the card that has 95%+ playrate since release is banned
>>537969279no, he means structure deck in ocg paper, with some new cards added, so it will be a year for master duel unless we get simultaneous release (unlikely but kmoney does love branded so who knows)
>imagine master duel but with skills and only 3 monster and s/t zonesperfect
>>537974875why would they ban ash blossomespecially after releasing the feet alt
>>537975771go back to your containment thread
I want 7 monster zones. And 7 spell or trap zones. And the ability to put pendulum scales anywhere.
I want Pendulum summon to no longer restricted by Link
Lmao
>>537968798Thanks!
>blue eyes field spell>chain maxx C>ash>welp I am fucked my hand is giga shit >click menu to scoop>normal summon mo ye>HOLD UP I will "let him cook" as teh kids say>sits for 20 seconds>scoopsnaruhodo
>>537964508>oh yeah worlds just happened>pure sky sissies got top 4what in the fuck?
>>537979286Strikers have been sitting at something like like 3rd to 5th best deck in the OCG for 4 months now.
>>537979826what the fuck changed? The only card I can see that is new is Lemnisgate!
>>537979981zero and lamnis gate are good
>>537979981This too and a new link 1. Lemnis and the link 2 are very good cards in a deck that already had some extremely powerful cards and a well-fleshed out gameplan.
>>537980265while this is obviously fucking good I don't see how this is enough juice to burst through modern endboards but I guess I will when it comes to master duel
>>537980476Striker already has the ability to break boards reasonably well which is a big part of why Striker Tenpai exists. The issue with pure Striker in MD is that modern decks set up a ton of followup so when you barely break through their board they're easily able to deal with the set Widow Anchor+Shark Cannon+Raye in GY.The new stuff lets them both set up more interruption to deal with the followup turn and more recursion for themselves beyond just relying on the opponent letting you use Raye's GY effect to add back Engage on their turn.Also this card+MST has become standard in the OCG. Obviously any bonus draw power given to Sky Strikers is a big deal since I'm sure we've all had situations where you have them down to one card and suddenly they go Talents draw 2>Upstart>Engage>Engage>Upstart>Engage>Kagari>Engage
i downloaded duel links for something to do because i was bored with maliss meta and started to play the gay twink catboy clown deck in rush duel and am actually having fun
>>537981196>allure for spells but it doesn't banishkinda fucked up
I LOVE RAYE
>>537981325For quick plays only. The only non-Magnifistorm decks that can justify it are Sky Striker and Runick. And Sky Striker only really wants to use it because it gets more spells in GY and because of how card draw spirals out of control in that deck.Cards like Allure or Trade In just aren't very good in general without some special synergy with your deck. And aiming to discard your whole hand isn't generally something you actually want to do.
>>537948240>spent 4 craft try to get a binder royal>spent 1500 sr dust on ransom and still got nothingThis game is a joke sometimes.
Mating Pressing Purrely...
this field spell card just being able to choose what it wants to negate is so stupid
>>537977304bagooska solos
So I tried Luka's Maliss deck instead of my own and just smoked everyone. And now I have a kitty.
>playing 3 games for ONE packwhat do they think i am a chink mining for lithium?
I tried playing malice but it was too hard so I dismantled it
>>537983416Assuming the opponent has a light as material on the Duodrive or in his GY, he can link Atrii+Druis off for SP and use Druis to out the Bagooska, then full combo with Oath.But that loses to one hand trap.
>>537982141it's 1% chance, 50 times isn't even 50/50 yet
>>537984004>Assuming the opponent has a light as material on the Duodrive or in his GY, he can link Atrii+Druis off for SP and use Druis to out the Bagooska, then full combo with Oath.There was an Aggregator in GY so that's basically what happened and he scooped as I set Primera since he had no responses. GG bagooskazeal.
>>537966512It's definitely not that far away
>>537984929K9 is at best in december, so yes, dtail is 4-6 months away too
>>537983758I just picked the ryzeal pack and got those 3 wins easily
Does the new support just turn White Forest into another Crimson Dragon/Blazar turbo deck?
>>537986046No, why would it do that?
>>537985003Alliance insight is almost done. There's literally only one archetype left in the set and then Duelist's Advance is up around the corner.I'm saying 2 to 3 months at best.
>Maxx C>effectively stops your opponent from having a turn>BAN THIS CARD RIGHT NOW I NEED TO COOOOOOOOOMBO!!!>Apollousa>effectively stops your opponent from having a turn>LE HECKIN BASED AND FAIR CARD STOP WHINING
>>537986965I think those cards are somewhat different.
>>537986234You have easy level 12 access, it seems soulless enough that OCG would've tried it.
>>537987213So what's your plan then? To run a Centurion package like any deck that makes level 8/12 synchros can do? but basically none of them do it because it's not actually good To just waste a ton of material on Legatia+Crimson Dragon to get 1 draw+1 negate?
>saw someone playing actual Harpies>thought they were based for a second>they start losing>immediately swap to Ryzeal
>>537987764you were watching a streamer play harpies?
>memento doesn't have mjollnir lock>spiritual beast>mermailhow the fuck does these even works against snake-eyes, much less maliss ryzeal
>>537989542Have you considered setting up a board of interruptions then using it against their attempt to set up a board?
>>537989603that requires me going firstt. someone with 17-streak of losing the coinflip
>>537989675Flip heads then you retard.
>>537989675should have bought a coin skin
>lose the coinflip>opponent use snake-eyes, only open ash and imperm>he open sangenjin>ash his vampire>imperm his diabell>normal lurie>sequence into lacrima>then scoops????
>silent woby so poseidra is live turn 1what the fuck is this shit
>>537990002>summon another woby to my field>ends with just the l3 atlantean>scoops????
Behold the worst burn deck ever made, courtesy of Gold I
>last match to win>opponent fuwalos, i set 3 pass, he open duster, then otk>next match opponent open roach, i open nothing>next match, going first for once, open 2 ash, imperm, opponent veiler and ash the rest of my hand, also duster my imperm>somehow win because he also brickedand all that for thisfree sr i guessthanks konami
>>537986965Imagine if we banned both
>>537969626yeah branded cards like grassfaggot
metaltronus is such a garbage card, why did that luka dude even use it?
it's been 5 games in a row where i lose the coinflip and opponent called by the only handtrap i got
>>5379965726 games in a row
>>5379972147 games in a row
>>537995757Its good in the Maliss mirror
>playing altergeist>go second against ryzeal>he ends on detonator + starliege + duodrive>activate evenly against him >he chooses to keep the detonator>imperm it>go full combo with altergeist then steal his detonator with adminia >he scoops when I use his own detonator against himnice tier 1 deck, fag.
>>538003670Opening Evenly+Imperm+Full combo (which is a two card combo at minimum) doesn't make the deck good anon>t.Altergeist player
>2 hours to rank up from gold V to gold IIi'm ngmi
>>538004248I mean it still felt good to break his boardalso activating evenly/imperm from hand makes multifaker by itself into full combo
>>538003670>>538004974once eclipse twins releases even your 3-4 card combo won't break that board kek
>>538003670for me it's>playing madolche>go second against ryzeal>open fuwa + maxx c + imperm + all my one card sharters>he scoops when I drew the outs and he didn'tnice tier 1 deck, fag
>playing appliancer vs maliss>activate lancea>win gameappliancer Tier 0
>can summon colossus at least>allure into discard all card insteadbut why
>>538005337a cuck like you wouldn't get it
why are people crying about maliss it dies to raigeki
>>538006038whatthat's precisely one of things it doesn't die to whatsoever
>opponent use tachyon>droll>called by>another droll>another called byreal funny beb
>>538006038How is Silver
why are people crying about _______ it dies to [custom brick]just add every out to your deck and always draw the one you need in that specific matchup
>>537996572>>537997214>>537997657happened to me as well one chinese opponent even had double called by
thank you i suppose
>win coin toss after 7 straight losses>finally win>chinese opponent conveniently loses connectionniceorganic
What is your pet archetype?
>>538020076ashened, but that's because i haven't been able to make them work. i saw a duel live where a player used embers and king to make garunix eternity
I while back I was really burned on the game, dismantled most of my shit to try out shitty decks for fun thinking I wasn't coming back, now I'm coming back to it and my account is in an awful state.I still have most generic staples, and can craft some URs, but the SRs are killing me. I'm thinking about starting a new account for the newbie freebies.
>>538020620>SRs are killing mebut SRs basically free though...
>>538021132?
>>538020935no they aren't>>538020620play a while and you will get enough gems to pull for a new deck and balance your account. and the pass is in 20 days
Tryout duel prize. I dont play any of this shit so its dust.
>>538020076MyutantsThey're not even that far from being good they just go -50 on every effect activation. A couple custom cards could fix them right up.
>>538022935imagine having 6 copies of e-tele and still ends up shit
>>538020076Would plunder patrol be considered pet tier? I played them a little in the theme chronicles and i quite liked them. But i felt the constant discarding really hurt their plan
>>538023408i think their rogue tier
>>538023315the new Serene Psychic Witch is also an etele for any Myutant, so that's 9 eletes for your 6 starter monstersstarters aren't really the issuethe problem is your endboard isn't strong enough to end the game turn 2 like a combo deck would, but is also so hostile to your own follow up that it can't be a solid midrange/grindy deck either
>>538022935Have you tried myutant metaphys?
>>537950301I got lucky with the ryzeal pack, so i have 10k gems saved up, do i spend some of them on heraldic, or do i build maliss instead, since the ignister cards are also in the upcoming pack?>why do you want to build maliss when you already own ryzealBecause this deck is bricky as all fuck, 90% of my hands consist of 4 handtraps and a single starter, which gets handtrapped, leaving me with no other choice than to pass turn. The few times i happen to also draw TTT, i end up drawing into more fucking useless handtraps anyway. I literally can't even go bagooska pass because fuwalos almost never fucking appears in my hand, and when he does it's with the one ryzeal name that needs specifically another ryzeal on field/GY. Tenpai at """full""" power somehow felt less bricky.
>>538020076Argostarsmy main archetype is Dark World
>>538020076Tanks
>get ash'd on ns quem and have no other play>activate thrust and set black goat>it's blue eyes>declare blue eyes>make mudragon and don't let him target any of his monsters>can't access blue eyes in anyway and all his cards are dead>he scoopsthis was a pretty fucking fun win
>>538021723>no they aren'ton average, you'd get 6 SRs per 10-pack pullthat's ~500 gems per 30 SRs dustiirc, you start with 10k-ish gems, and you get ~8k gems per month from daily+event+rankedso after just a month, with average luck, you should be able to hard craft almost a full deck worth of SRs (36 cards)
thoughts on mind crush as a thrust target
>>538029603>mind crushi wish we coulda used this dude instead
>>538029603I do this but with Fiend Comedian
>>538029603https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Heavy_Slump
>>538020076The Sex Beast Warriors I will dismantle my entire account to royal out the support
>>538025891Argostars seem like a fun archetype, but I have never tried them. Are you running them with Fiendsmith?
>>538020076Amazonswhy the fuck haven't they added their cards back to their secret pack yet
>>538031139serena best
why is the worst deck ever fucking created, snake eyes fire king, still viable? why can't you just kill a fucking deck
>>538031421I dowhen you don't draw any starters and need to put counters on "That's 10!" to start playing, you need an engine that has a lot of activations and doesn't take up too much main deck spaceit is also good bait for hand traps so Adra doesn't get negated
that fucking whale reboring masqureena is the most bullshit thing ever fucking conceived. I funking hate those two cards beyond believe
one fucking bystial in my hand and I would have won just fucking one
>>538020076Where do i even begin?>literally no synergy with anything, spright works with live troon because the live troon cards have real effects, normal summoning any nephthys name is always a waste>diviner can can search conductor/rebirth just fine, but none of the fairies she can summon when tributed do anything for the deck (besides being an extra body)>conductor generates enough bodies for a link that searches another ritual and adds back the ritual spell from grave, BUT the ritual needs to pop your cards to pop an equal amount of the opponent's cards>because cerulean needs to destroy nephthys cards specifically, you can't really cut back on the nephthys names despite their uselessness>ZERO turn one plays, unless arc light pass is your dream board>can't really run a bunch of handtraps/boardbreakers because the deck has nothing but 2-3 card combos>the OTK relies on you being able to completely wipe the opponent's field with the cards you pop with cerulean because it, sacred and princess is just enough damage to kill on a empty field (8100)Its only saving graces are being one of the most aesthetically pleasing archetypes ever made (if you don't like blue-eyed, dark-skinned women you're a faggot) and being absurdly cheap, every card but diviner is pennies, even in MD the only UR cards you'll need are diviner and princess, both generically useful.
>>538034143what
Goblins have an ton of good spells/traps for a deck that only gets 1 spell/trap search in its entire comboI hope the next goblin guy lets you get the traps in play
>Tryout event>Normally play stun, so I usually just alt-tab and watch Youtube if I go second rather than watch opp play solitaire >Randomly pick a deck and press whatever glows like a monkey>Get event done in like 20 minutesI have no idea how to play my deck and thankfully my opps don't seem to do it either.How good is this deck normally?https://litter.catbox.moe/tt6wa87l0c1qfnve.mp4

>>538039770>how good is the deck that is currently sitting at 40-ish% usage, AND will get better in a couple days with the @ignister support?man...
I don't play ryzeal or maliss so this past month has been boring. I hope next selection pack is good and adds mitsurugi.
>>538040878> He doesn't know
>>538040878hahahahahahaha
>>538040878This is the most interesting thing in the next pack and, unfortunately, all of it is shit.

>>538047545This event is JUST dead namer
>>538047771I got the 3 wins so fucking quickly and I never even played the deck before. It really is for retards.
>>538047734>Implying this isn't just better and TCG paper niggers are diaper wearing FAGGOTS!
>jurrac's gameplan is to blow up the field 3 times and then having no follow up the next turnepic deck
>>538041372ackshully they're all her servants
We need more handtraps that protect the turn 1 player like Droll and Ash.
>>538047986Ryzeal user are downplaying faggot. I NS dormouse and imperm detonator, he still could detach Aggreg to cuck me from Dorm effect. Completely broken shit.

>that awful looking utopic card ryzeal uses is a permanent negateI keep underestimating cards because they just really look like shit

>>538056819I understand Chimera lines now and I love her
>>538065984is the deck even fun? I'm reading the cards and it seems straight up unplayable. do you use a supplemental engine or something?
>>538067973Yes.
>>538039770>cross-out banish feather duster>on their own turn?????
they should reduce the timer on this dogshit event to a quarter of what it normally isREAD THE FUCKING CARDS BEFORE YOU PLAY
This event sucks fucking ass, dawg.
>7 coin flip losses in a rowwhy even bother letting me press the queue buttonjust ban me from the event
>>538073564I got to play Memento for the first time and really liked it so I guess it wasn't too bad for me, if anything I see it as a trial of some decks I had interest inRitual Beasts feels like it sticks out like a sore thumb in this event though, swear to god I forget that deck exists half the time
>Bagooska is the only card giving the deck any valuehow sure are we that Ryzeal is a top tier deck?

>>538074531Bagooska is good, yeah.

why couldn't i sauravis dryton mu? it summoned and activated its effect, and the only prompt was to negate with skull guardian
>>538075492oh, it was because i fucking lancea'd goddamnit
>>538075492don't know nigga post boardstate or replay or something
would it be stupid to dig for Maliss right now?having SO MUCH fun with the loaner deck but I only have 10000 gemsjudging by the TCG/OCG they’re going to stay relevant for months unless a secret banlist kills them
>>538076357It's like 50/50. We're approaching the point where they're extremely likely to hit it but also it survived in OCG so it is likely to survive here. Personally I just pulled for 1-ofs of the URs with my excess gems to get banlist refunds.
>>538076357it will get some meaningless hit just to force you to pull for ignister but the deck isn't going anywhere
>>538072646why should i when i can read them mid duel and farm wins from impatient shitters?
This tryout duel is disgusting>First opponent: I maxx c-ed him and he folded instanly>Second opponent: I got maxx c-ed but I drolled myself and he conceded.>Third Opponent: Charmies, You know the drill.I didn't to play a single match. I got ex-ryzel from a free pack so it is all good.
Browsing cards and loosely formulating the idea for a deck is more fun than actually building decks or playing the game
>>538077781sounds pretty accurate to the championships the event is based onthis is just an ass format
>>538078205Yeah, this format is ass.In the second game, I had star + ex + ice, and I did it all wrong. If my opponent was a bit more perceptive, he should have waited because I misplayed a ton.
>>538077781This is 2025 yugioh, you put in a fuckton of irrelevant cards and play the Maxxcharmy and friends mini game to decide who wins
>a ryzeal shitter is playing denko sekkaI'm embarrassed. I swear to god I just get second hand embarrassment from all the shit they pull.
Worthless fucking Ryzeal shitter. Without floodgates the deck is a 0. Wouldn't even be rogue. Wouldn't even be functional.
can't wait for a year and a half from now when malpiss an dryzeal are gutted :^)
>>538076640>>538076727when are K9 and Yummy dropping? if its more than 6 weeks im going in fuck it
>>538079872Yeah there's plenty of time to recoup your gems before them.

Thanks for clicking gold buttons retard I was if he didn't change wen to darkRitual Beast fucking SUCK but they can be fun I guess
>>538081851>Ritual Beast fucking SUCKIsn't it still a really good deck, if it weren't for lancea?
>draw 2 lancea against ryzeal and losecan we just ban this fucking nigger cyberse deck already?
>>538082197its ok. Its just the good decks are so much better than it it really cant compete. That duel was pretty fun since I actually got to contact fuse my face down monsters after he booked me which isn't something that ever fucking comes out outside ritual beasts
>>538082329I'll trade you. We ban ryzeal totally honest rank 4 for lancea going to 0 as wellno I do not play maliss
>>538082479kill yourself nigger
could we get some new straightforward midrange decksthe meandering banish a card bring a card back 50 million restrictions slowly assemble a board for 30 minutes maliss shit is too hard for my retard brainand ryzeal isnt much better
>>538083063thats literally ryzeal though
>>538081393I pulled 7 partisans, 2 mantis and 2 liberators0 dormouse tho ;)
>>538083153maybe im just getting too old for yugioh
>>538083709if ryzeal is too difficult for you then you might not be fit to operate a computer or smartphone anyway
>>538084004look man those gay robots all look the same and have a lot of words on them
>>538084493>lot of words on themThey basically all just say "special summon itself for free and search the next guy who will also special summon himself for free"Seriously this is the easiest deck Konami have released in like a decade and nothing else they release after will be easier than this
>my detonator gets imperm'd>can still SNED for cost so the negate is free anywaywho designs this shit
>imagine spright, but they're all jet/bluefucking powercreep mang
>>538085171>and half of them don't require you to have a monster still on field to special
>>538003670Ryzeal is a fair deck that could be beaten by regular Tenpai, it is only good against Maliss because it is a one card sharter and 4 hand craps.How does Altergeist win against Maliss going second?
>>538085101>speed 1 negate
I don't want to play the tranny deck but I am possibly the only guy without MalissI pulled 1 of each UR.Should I go for it? When does this piece of shit deck falls out the meta?
>>538085637it's still somewhat kind of rogue rn in ocg
>>538085171I hate that I have to ask what deck you are exactly talking about? because Yummy, Ryzeal and Killer Tune are pretty much the same deck.
>>538079871An awful deck like Ryzeal doesn't deserve to be gutted. Just take away the floodgates and watch it crumble away.
>>538085778exactly
>>538085778That's very obviously Ryzeal.
>>538085778Is killer tune actually good? I thought its tuner restriction was too...restrictive?
>>538085778>>538086268You mean Kewl Tune?

>>538087428it's basically one of the first thing Prediction Princess decks pull out because the effects really are just that silly
>>538088703There's no point when they have Guard Dog as an option. All Deus X offers is that it has enough levels to use as tribute, but that super minimal level of consistency boost is not going to help Prediction Princess.
>>538088965guard dog is temporarydeus-x is permanent
>>538088965even people that play Prediction Princess know it's not good, they need to take as much consistency as they can getGuard Dog's honestly kinda fallen out of favor for other options, like the other anon said Guard Dog is a one time effect and you'd need to re-flip it, plus you can also just nuke a board with pot of the forbidden insteadI have a friend that's really attached to it and his thoughts on it are something like "it knows exactly what kind of endboard it wants to make, it just has very little ways to actually make it" and that's kinda my thoughts on it too
can they print "japanese" art tcg cards yet
>>538089502Prediction Princess flips it(and Whirlwind Weasel) down and then back up as quick effect every turn. """All""" you need to do is get both rituals in hand and then summon Trei by tributing Treith.>>538089657I don't agree with your one friend. Let's not pretend Prediction Princess is some popular deck that is seeing large amounts of experimentation by skilled players who are able to come to a consensus on these things. Needing to re-flip it is hardly a downside. The deck is bad enough that you're not getting any appreciable consistency boost one way or the other, and you may as well set up the board that wins you the game instead of the one that's just alright. Playing Pot of the Forbidden Control is significantly more fun though.
>Accesscode Talker as an ExtenderTOTALLY ABSOLUTELY NOT OK.I know this is not an isolated case but how many "END BOSS" monsters became extenders? DPE and AccessCode Talker, who else?
>>538090217
What Happened At The Yu-Gi-Oh World Championship...
>>538090217People sometimes use Baronne's pop to extend by popping their own cards too. Same with SP's banish.
>>538090408Heart of the Cards.That and the funny tie breaker rules Konami has put in place.By the way I only heard of it a day after the fact.Am I crazy or the past event was, I dunno, bigger?>>538090394Nah that always read as extension, crazy it was not a UR but the other Chungus was.
>>538090576I just started playing Maliss and I am so used to SP being used as removal I forgot I could use it as an extender as well.It did not matter.I bricked with Maliss drawing into 3 of the field spell but you can extend from just sneezing.
>cyberse slop that plays from the banished zonewhat were they THIIIIIINKing
>against runick>he fucking summon majesty fiend>just run over it with ransom because lmao atk/def switch
>>538091106Everything about Maliss is deliberate.Extending from access code, 2300 baseline to make it compatible with existing support.Compatible with Bystials and other powerful engines. Difficult to interact with the deck by traditional means.But I wonder why Alice in Wonderland? Why push this theme specifically?Who in the design team wanted this archetype to be this powerful and why?
>>538091650The Japs fucking love Alice in Wonderland. They probably thought making them all cute girls but also strong as shit would pull the game out of the rut it's been in for a bit.
>>538091581>Cat - JapanI would like this archetype better if it branched from the already existing cards like Mad Hacker / Mad Hatter instead of being 100% waifu bullshit and leaned more into the malware themes instead of EXTEND EXTEND BANISH BANISH
>>538091952they're mimicking one of the most important feature of malwareyou can't simply just delete them once they're online, they'll be back multiple times
>alt art status3 crystal wings and 1 medallion I'm not eager of playing any of those decks on ranked but i will. Just to tell the world hey, I got this
Yang Zing makes Tenyi/Swordsoul a lot more fun. It probably makes the deck worse, but it feels a lot less braindead.Thinking about getting rid of the Mo Ye crutch and focusing more on the Yang Zing gimmicks
This event is the worst.Yay even more maliss/ryzealI've been wanting to kill myself, I just might this time

We're so back.>requires a light fiend as material>is a musket so can link into Max even if negated>summons a musket to your field and sets a musket monster OR spell/trap to their field >giving them a card turns Max onSo you can even just like as a very simple example, give them a monster and summon Caspar/Starfire/Doc, link the link 2 into Max to search Desperado since they have a monster, then use it to pop their monster and trigger the guy you summoned.This extends and gets you extra light fiends in the GY. You can also just like send their guy to the GY with Engraver's effect and keep the trap in hand to use with Caspar for two interruptions.
>magical muskets supportfuck you. fucking why
ban and kill all light fiends
>>538086534The strongest thing this card can do is searching Sengenjin, it can come back tomorrow and nobody would play it but it WOULD be funny to play Millennium Ryzeal
we didnt need more fiendslop support
>>538098593Because they're cool.
>>538098781I don't give a fuck about it. Any new light fiend card means Fiendslop support
a light fiend just flew over my house
>>538098773>The strongest thing this card can do is [something really strong]The only reason that wouldn't be a problem is because there's no good deck that makes rank 4s at the moment aside from Ryzeal who can't make good use of Millennium thanks to locks. White Forest is the only deck that could consider it but that's already a deck that may as well FTK if it resolves anything close to a combo.
>>538099029shoot it
>>538098919>oh noooooo Fiendsmith decks might be convinced to do something interesting instead of making Caesar
>>538098563Oh wait, you can't link this into Max. He requires a lvl 8 or lower Musket which aside from himself this is the first one not to fit that criteria.
>>538099213I would rather Fiendslop ceased to exist entirely.
>>538099510Good luck with that. If you whine about it more on /vg/ it'll surely come true.
>>538099601yes. and kys fiendcuck
SEEEEEEX!!!
kill all purrelys
>>538099073Fiendsmith is any rank 4, and I would not call the Millennium combo "really strong" it had a moment to shine when Snake Eye Fiendsmith lost Beatrice and for like a month when Crystron was relevant. It's good as a starter and to bait interaction, if you already have a rank 4 (broadbull) on the board you probably don't need to make a Zombie Vampire or a monster negate.
Impregnate all purrelys
purrely is shit in this meta right?
>>538101571The only playable deck is Maliss and the runner up is Ryzeal, so yes. Literally every other deck is shit compared to them
>>538101571>>538102374this fact doesn't stop me from jacking it to it tho.
I dumped a shitload of gems into their secret pack for the Bamboo Swords and Mikanko, but the only URs I got were Guardian Eatosas in, 7+ Guardian Eatos and I still don't have 3 of any of the other URs in that packI just blew the last of my gems on a guaranteed UR 10 pull, and the only UR was a single Guardian Eatoshow many of the Mikanko URs do I need? and how many are optimal?

>>538103552>what is playable in the meta is something you can hit masters 1 with lmfao
>>538103714>t. something you've never done
why are you playing salad
>>538100324Asking a deck to run the standard Fiendsmith extra deck cards, and the three additional ED cards they'd need to make Broadbull to then still have to have things to make with the Millennium cards is a big ask.The Millennium cards will continue to be very strong as long as there are decks that can efficiently use all the material they provide. They didn't suddenly go down in card quality because the newest decks don't mesh well with them.You can't pretend like extra deck extenders aren't powerful. They obviously are. There are definitely decks that would want to turn 2 level 4s into the 4 bodies you could get from Millennium considering how good all the Millennium main deck cards are. It's just that none of them are relevant for now. Like look at how Fire King Snake Eye was top tier running the Springans package in the Xyz cup for that reason. They'd gladly would've traded it to run Millennium cards over those bricks. It'd probably be fine in MD specifically if you don't mind more material spam slop piles, because MD has 8 months of forewarning before a good deck comes out so they could ban it in anticipation should a good deck come out that synergizes with it, but they'd probably just leave it legal regardless.
>>538103714>what is playable in the meta is something you can hit masters 1 withYes? Obviously if you can hit max rank with it that means it's playable.
>>538103890I suck at playing everything else
Dudes still running tearlaments to this day are kinda based
>>538104398kill yourself teartranny
>>538103552How much can a good deck carry a bad (or average) player? I got through diamond 1 last season with a mix of ryzeal and voiceless, and I'm itching for some gems, but I don't know if it's worth attempting to climb through master.
>>538104730Quite a bit, especially given many people will assume you know what you're doing and surrender before you can fuck up. I don't think grinding it out is worth it if you didn't already want to play that many games though.
What are some "cult classic" decks? Shit like D/D/D, Speedroid and Vaylantz that despite being outdated still have some very dedicated people thinkering with them?
>>538105179does branded count as outdated yet
>>538104060>There are definitely decks that would want to turn 2 level 4s into the 4 bodies you could get from Millennium considering how good all the Millennium main deck cards areThere are none currently, and there are none in the foreseeable future. Decks today don't need more material or generic bodies, that's quite literally the least of their concerns. The worst that will come from it is you'll get is some trash 60 pile list that's trying to put up an FTK board. >They didn't suddenly go down in card quality because the newest decks don't mesh well with them.That's literally how it works, they are worse cards now. Maliss and Ryzeal pushed the power level up a notch and K9 100% replaces them in every way.
>>538105179There will always be people who want Zombie piles to work, and there are always new synergies for it to mess with. Delta of Invitation, Goblin Bikers to search and then loop Goblin Zombie, Duke of Demise, Ghost Fusion, etc.Fluffals is another deck like that but I imagine a lot of people gave up on it over the last year since its weakness was always little to no room for non-engine and mediocre consistency.
>>538105179The entire anniversary event this year was for live twin, so they should be a cult deck, but after the anniversary I never saw them again
>>538105534>That's literally how it works, they are worse cards now.No they aren't. It's just that the decks that synergize with them are worse. Impulse wouldn't become a bad card if Maliss got banned.>Maliss and Ryzeal pushed the power level upFull power Snake Eye was stronger. K9 does not replace them. K9 is mostly going to be a new hand trap you can play. Maliss is still in the running for third best deck in the OCG.
>>538105572>Zombie piles to work, and there are always new synergies for it to mess withpersonally I've been tinkering with Curse of the Ancient Turtle recently>banish Changshi, send Mazera>use Changshi to banish Mazera>summon mazera>use Changshi to send Mad Mauler>summon Mad Mauler and summon ImmortalI can't wait for the new eldlich support, it's gonna be great
>>538105679Live Twin isn't a cult deck, it's just a popular deck that's been somewhat underpowered for a good while now. Everyone who wants to play it is waiting for their support which should be in the next couple months.
It's crazy how fast people are to chase the trends in this game and only judge things based on what is most popular. Obviously the new decks are the best thanks to the banlist killing the old ones but there are seriously people who believe stuff like Fiendsmith cards suddenly became terrible because Maliss and Ryzeal don't use them. I wonder how often it'd go the opposite way if release dates were different. I wouldn't be surprised if we'd be seeing people talking about how Ryzeal is a shitty outdated deck and Fiendsmith, Fire King, and Rescue Ace are some crazy new level of power creep if they came out now alongside a couple Maliss+Ryzeal limits.
>>538105860>Impulse wouldn't become a bad card if Maliss got bannedApples to oranges. Impluse is one of a kind. Generic engines are quite literally power crept yearly. This is like saying Adventure is still good but there's just no decks that can play it. No, it's bad now. There's stronger engines in stronger decks. >K9 does not replace themIt does replace Millennium in any deck that was playing them. It's a stronger engine slot.>Full power Snake Eye was strongerLmfao, okay I think we can end the discussion here. This is just factually incorrect, this one comment shows me all I need to know. And no, bigger end board does not make you a stronger deck.
>>538105179Some people are really into Umi control decks for some fucking reason
>>538105179off the top of my head>Thunder Dragon>Dark World>Mayakashi>Endymion>Generaiderall decks that usually have a small but very dedicated playerbase that are usually bringing the decks to Master 1 every season
>>538107498Shit, when is thunder dragon getting new support?
>>538107498Mayakashi look cool, but climbing the same mindless synchro ladder every game must get old really fast
>>538107821I don't fucking know man, but it really needs it, you could say Paralyzing Mushroom is Thunder Dragon support but if you did I'd laugh at you>>538107931Mayakashi is bolstered by being an engine for a Zombie Pile, which it does really well with stuff like Zombie World and Eldlich as additional engines, that also gives it a lot of variety since most Zombie locks (aside from their first Synchro chain for ED) don't lock them out of plays
>>538107821Doom-Z already stole Colossus.

Ban Forbidden Droplet
is firewall really necessaryi don't have enough dust for firewall nor impulse, can i make do with just terahertz + packbit that i accidentally pull from the free exod pack
>>538129283>tearoh no not that tier 6 deck what ever shall we do>there is a ryzeal variantthats a TCG meme not relevant in a real format
>>538130298I can tell you are a shitter who buys into meme opinions
>>538130378you bought into fiendsmith being good THOUGH
I wish there's a Super Poly target for RyzealThe most I can do is like, Detonator + Starliege into Mudragon
>>538130086If you want an SR substitute for Firewall, go for Topologic Bomber Dragon which was the post-Apollousa ban cope ED monster but that's an entirely new line altogetherFirewall comes up a lot surprsingly enough especially when you can't end on Crypter + Apollousa
>>538130452things must be really chill down in rookie
>>538130670it's just an objective fact that the moment snake-eyes leaves the meta fiendsmith becomes irrelevantits only future use is being a supplementary engine in live twins
>>538130631won't that destroy all your shit too even if you put your dormouse linked
>>538130781what made it good in snake eyes but not in other decks?
>>538128646better question Against which deck Terahertz is useless?
>>538130456>he doesn't know that's the intentionnext you will notice how you can never super poly kashtira monsters together
>>538130819It's a once in a blue moon line like using Almiraj for the grindgame or getting handtrappedYou'd still end in 2 Mat Apollousa + Crypter + GWC 06 uninterrupted
>>538130970I mean, I can't even fuse Bagooska together, damnit
>>538130876nothing else since snake eyes can shit an infinite amount of free link material on the board for Moon without a single lock
>>538130892*Against which deck is Terahertz useless?Hope that helps
>>538131218>infinite amount of free link material>for Moonlmao
>>538130892Maliss and Ryzeal runs TTT, Terahertz is just asking to be stolen at that pointIt's not wise wasting 3 ED slots for an uninterrupted line where most of that space can be used for Cerberus, Typhon, and Almiraj
>>538131218lol>spright>tear>yubel>fire king>white forest>any deck that can use milleniumand in some of them the engine is a high value combo piece
I'm glad the anti Terahertz propaganda is strong because that S/T negate is extremely annoying

Quizshow: Guess the type
What the actual fuck did I just watch...I just saw a Duel Live replay where both players were playing normally, then randomly stopped and refused to do anything until Duelist A drew all 5 piece of Exodia...This shit went on for almost 70 turns...
>>538132236that's crooked cook
>>538132287Explain...
is fiendsmith living rent free in mdg head while far stronger decks (maliss and ryzeal) ran rampant the new iteration of /mdg/ seething at labrynth?
>>538132473crooked cook is unaffected and if you make it with the sharks it can't be destroyed by battle either so most decks have no way of outing itthe decks goal is just to sit on it and pass turn until you naturally draw exodia
>>538132693Ohhhh THAT'S why he wouldn't attack...Holy shit that's retarded. Don't understand why duelist B didn't just scoop. I wouldn't give that faggot the satisfaction.
>>538132221pyro
>>538131697>random shit that nobody but Yummy is playingI wonder why
>>538131331you thank very much>>538131486>not playing a card because of one cardIs that why most people were still playing Maliss when Lancea was at +80% in usage?If Terahertz gets snatched by your opponent you still have GWC or MTP to limit the chances of OTK.>Cerberus, Ty-phon, and Almiraj>all useless against Maliss and RyzealThe Crypter and Terahertz lines are good but I prefer the line that requires less braincells, it fits Maliss.
>>538132236>watches a replay>suddenly something weird is happening>instead of just reading the single fucking card that duelist A has on his field, he decides to post a screenshot in the generalwhat is wrong with you people

>>538155347let it die. fuck that fucking game. it would be so simple to balance the format but they let it get this bad without a care in the world. i have already uninstalled and don't play btw
>>538155586>>538155795I think we will get meaningful changes now. People bitch and moaned about specific metas and Maxx C for years but kept spending and playing. Now that people finally had enough and are putting the game down is when Konami actually need to get off their asses.
>>538155672>>it's actually really fun to watch an opponent flail around trying every option to beat over the board when they have no outs, or even just quit because I set up the boardI enjoy this with Towers gameplay.

Why the fuck did they choose to give out tickets for this pack now? They didn't even add the new Gem Knights or anything
>>538158227I get the impression they did it to sucker people into rolling for the Gem-Knights when they rolled around>woah a free Master Diamond! I could scrap this...or I could roll on the pack when it rolls around instead, it might be a waste to just throw it awayshit like that
>>538157773It's true its a lot of resources, but that discussion was about decks being able to access a rank 4 for a theoretical Broadbull into Millennium combo, and if you play FS you do have access to that. Point being it's shit, you're putting a ton of main deck and extra deck slots into getting generic material for like a big Apollousa.
>>538158227did the new pack come out today?I haven't logged in yet todaythe new pack has gem knights and I am waiting to see if they were added to the secret pack before redeeming the pack tickets

>>538167215>>538168869the last time the playercount was down this hard was when runick stun was dominating, and they completely nuked that deck in response. it was so bad they're still afraid to take runick off the banlist
>>538169070Embarrassing
>>538169332>nuked runick>stun is still one of the best decks in the gameThis only proves my pointWhoever is doing the banlists at Konami literally has never played the game before

Konami tricked me into creating an alt account for the branded deck. I created the account with the code, got some gems from begginer missions and solo play, opened a shit ton of packs and now I have a decent deck.It is a fun deck in theory, lots of support to brew with, lots of lines of play, fun shenanigans with recursion and delayed effects. But I don't know, I don't know, something feels off to me. I'm already thinking about dismantling it all and building some jank cheap deckson this account.

Can't believe I'm at the point again where I think we should fucking ban Accesscode.
>>538170548Bagooska is not skill drain. Starliege does protect itself thanks to Duodrive.>>538170467You still have to deal with Bagooska a second time because they also set up Plugin.
>>538174564he also made Woodborg Inpachithere are so many cards that Kozaky is connected to and could be included as a retrain in an archetype focused on himMad Lobster also references dark world, if they're from the same place it could be included tooit would be cool if his archetype could bridge into Koa'ki and other archetypes that he is related to as well
>>538168869Yugioh players are very dedicated, as long as money keeps pouring there's no reason to eos or change for the better, simple as is.

do the time limited cosmetics come back? (the ones like bagooska pet, icons i nthe shop etc)
>>538188315Holiday themed ones do, including Bagooska(he's an April Fools thing because number 4/1), and anniversary stuff comes back for next year's anniversary, but otherwise I don't think they've reran any limited stuff yet including alt arts.
>>538182890This was my Geist support ideaThe Synchro lets you extend off Meluseek+Malwisp as a one card combo without just being a gay Link 1The trap gives you extension through handtraps and turn 0 plays off a single card card instead of having to draw Faker+Imperm. Decent option into roach/charmies too letting you summon some interruption on their turn.

What cards does Maliss get in the future?
>>538132221sea serpent
>>538195350>Dinomorphia seems cool to pilotI promise you it's not. It's a very frustrating deck both because it has no modern combos meaning you have to draw cards that all work well together, and more or less whatever you draw is your endboard, and because it will sometimes die to random shit in regardless of the LP protection effects they slapped on the traps.On top of that, pseudo-skill drain is not a fun win condition.
>>538195606There's nothing sweaty about that deck. It's a piss-tier casual meme deck and you likely lost to a literal bot.
just hit proficiency 19 and did the proficiency 20 testthere was a question along the lines of 'You pop Purple Poison with Electrumite and add Astrograph to your hand. What effect should be chain link 2 to ensure you activate as many effects as possible?' The answer was Purple Poison's effect, but I have no idea whyThere doesn't seem to be any reason that you'd be unable to chain Astrograph as link 2 and then chainblock with Purple Poison as link 3Is there something I'm missing or did they word this question like shit or what
>>538195981>just draw the out against a zero turn killDie of cancer

>>538196068Under OCG+MD rules trigger effects in the hand get added to the chain like quick effects rather than like other trigger effects.
>>538196418that is, for an average deckn43 needs you to hard open a level 4 engine and a way to get the trap onto the fieldnot as uncommon as you'd think but if you open 3 of the trap 1 trap tricks and ZS ascended you get to go fuck yourself>>538196539Yes.You got unlucky and lost. Try being more lucky next time.
>>538196539>0/9 hand trapsthere's your problem
>>538196418That hand still sounds like it'd be an easy win for the non-Utopia FTK player unless the FTK player had like Ash+Crossout+full combo.
>>538197020Oh, I thought you meant the FTK player by "the opponent"Yeah it's incredibly easy to shut down
Why does Konami make so many reactive/backrow archetypes anime girl themed? From my decklist I look like a coomer, but I just like setting up traps or dismantling boards
>>538197296I've noticed that too and assume that someone in charge of these things must personally like that type of deck+aesthetic.
>>538196068i honestly already forget the question but iirc the question was how to set up the link so that you can apply most effect during resolution or something, not the highest chain linkeither that, or something about making the most of the next chain that happens immediately after poison pop somethingbut the question wording always pretty poor, yea, and the explanation usually doesn't help much
>>538197296I mean, what's there other than Lab and Traptrix?
>>538197296there's traptrix and labrynth, what else
>>538198341centurion, argostars
>>538194674Buddy going first against maliss isn't the problem you can easily beat maliss going first. lancea is more for shutting it down going second.
>>538198341Dinomorphia, argostars. Mikanko kind of.
>>538198425>>538198395This is the face of runick technically, so i guess it counts?But then there's also shit like paleo which doesn't even feature humanoid creatures.
>>538198949Paleos aren't a recent archetype, they're a decade old. Also they were a Korean exclusive and from what we know of TCG exclusives, the TCG team gets to describe the theme and basic gameplan+gimmick behind the archetype for the OCG devs to actually make so it's a bit removed from normal design decisions.
>>538198763>Dinomorphiadoes it even count when half of the member ain't waifu and the big boss is a motherfucking t-rex
>>538200010The T-Rex is a girl.
>>538200163frenzy seems to imply that it is its own thing
>>538200361Yes, Rexterm is its own thing and that thing is a cute girl.
so is horus the best engine in the game or what
>>538201680No way. Only if your deck really wants to toss cards from hand into the GY or deep draw for something specific. Fiendsmith and Millennium are both a lot better.
>2 stun faggots in a rowthis game is so fucking retarded
when am I supposed to use flame banshee in ryzeal?
>>538201680maybe if it actually fucking discard instead of send to gy
>>538202410When you need a way to get into Star for Cross.
>>538180804>game is doing extra poorly now because the format and everything around it sucks>double down, do another duelist cup that'll be completely dominated by one deckI'm convinced the devs hate us, doomGODS won
>>538202449i think i understandi feel retarded playing ryzeal though
>>538202410I swear if ryzeal gets flame banshee banned...
>Tryout event duel live>This guy just kept comboing even though he already got lethal and the Ryzeal guy had nothingKek. That looks so personal.
Trying to theorycraft a deck similar to Fiendsmith Control but centered around Diabellstar. The general idea is to use Diabellstar to toolbox through powerful Sinful Spoil S/Ts and just accrue more and more of them each turn by continually cycling Diabellstar on and off the field. The main issue I'm running into though is that unlike the Fiendsmith, where any 2 cards turns into Moon, which turns into Requiem, Diabellstar is harder to consistently access. Cards like Dramatic Snake-Eye Chase and Deception->Hallowed Azamina->Mu Rceilago->Wanted work, but I seem to remember a Fiendsmith->White Forest full combo line that used Sequence as a Link-2 to make Lacrima, then link into Sprind and send Astellar. The only thing is, I don't know how exactly you get Astellar from the graveyard, and I can't find anything about it in modern WF guides. Anyone know anything?
>>538208080try something like thishttps://www.masterduelmeta.com/tier-list/deck-types/Azamina
>>538208467Now that's interesting, I had considered some kind of mill strategy since a lot of SS/Azamina cards have strong graveyard effects, and using Reasoning to just mill yourself until you hit the only monster you CAN summon to get yourself started is a pretty good way to get Diabell out. The only thing I worry about is I feel like these kinds of decks would be pretty bad going second, whereas FS Control style decks have the advantage of playing a ton of hand traps. I also worry about consistency. It's basically Reasoning, Diabell, or hope for Hallowed+a Sinful Spoil S/T. Still, it's an interesting idea.
reminder to all trap troons, you Wannabe! but You Will Never Be
>>538210269>Wannabee! will never be-
>>538210035I tried it out a bit, and yeah, if you don't open reasoning you're kinda dead in the water. There was a video of it floating around, it was cool to see it in action.
>>538210035I play it and I can tell that going second is just as bad as going second with a normal deck. the only benefit you get really is people not understaanding what your deck does lol. But it can win game and beat the meta because saint is pretty good because maliss and ryzeal have a good chunk of target effects. just saying you want to have two saints on board because people WILL twist themselves into knots to kill it if you only have one.
ash blossom will always be the reason go second decks are non existent
>>538208080>I don't know how exactly you get Astellar from the graveyardSpright elf
>The worst Regenesis is a URIs this....mercy?
>>538214013Saint Azamina's random "You can't target your own cards" effect has legitimately ruined multiple games for me. You just don't really think about how much your deck targets until it comes along. I'll probably give the Reasoning version a shot but I was hoping you could play something that had a little more game going second.>>538214712Sure I know about Elf but assuming you get to Fusion Lacrima+Fiendsmith+Sequence, how are you getting enough material to link into Elf? You can't use Sprind as link material the turn it's summoned.
I was messing around with combos in solo to try to figure out my chimera deck and a bricked hand with Lurrie and four handtraps was A Bao A Qu/3 mat apoo. Fiendsmith is so goofy
>>538208080sequence into lacrimaif you have tract in GY, lacrima ss engraverif you don't have tract in GY, lacrima add back engraver into tract into lurieengraver/lurie + sequence into sprind, send astellartract fuse lacrima + sprind into rextremenderextremende discard a spell/trap to send somethingastellar revive
>>538217040i want to lick her armpits
I'm just noticing that when it comes to art, ritual-based archetypes are very strong. Too bad they usually suck in terms of gameplay.
>>538218956Same
>>538217343REXTREMENDE That was it, thanks man I was struggling with this for a while. And you can equip a Fiendsmith link to send for Astellar's activation. Yeah, this might work as a bridge. Cuz you can then go Astellar->Silvy, add any white forest/sinful spoil S/T like Aphes or Sinful Spoils of the White Forest, make Rceila, add Azamina Elzette and get to Diabell/Azamina engine from there, like a normal WF deck. Then you can sit on Azamina/Diabell/Rextremende until next turn. This just might work if I can get the starter to brick ratio down.
>>538157267I will always root for my GOAT
Which fucking retard at konami thought Sillva could be legal again
Just reinstalled the game!Are there any playable decks that don't have insanely long combos right now?My favorite back when i played was Kashtira, that's about as long as i wanna spend on combos.
>>538220317shut up, my post-DOOD psychics/libromancer deck is going to win worlds next year
>>538223013Ryzeal just came out and its combos are very short, also one of the best decks in the game right now
>>538223013does summoning 8x count as long combos
>>538220317Voiceless is fun though, and mitsurugi seems fun too.
I don't know what it is, but something but there is something about Synchro cards I just don't like. There are many Synchro archetypes that have cool aesthetic and mechanics, synchro summoning is fine mechanically, but I just don't like playing these cards. I think I just don't like the white borders.
I will not play Gem Knights
>>538224098personally I just don’t like negate slop
>>538223638That's cool, anything i should be aware of with the deck or is it pretty approachable?>>538223656That's fine, i just don't wanna do fiendslop gameplay.
>>538224785but fiendslop usually just summon 8x
>>538224785>deck is very UR heavy, pretty pricey but it feels like they did that on purpose because of the meta relevance it has>Rank 4 Xyz engine so it has a lot of flexibility with other archetypes like Sharks, Constellar, etc. even seen some Voiceless variants and they did well>it's missing one of its big extenders right now, Eclipse Twins, and that does a lot for the deck, so I'd look into that later if you get into the deck>it's definitely in top 2 right now but people downplay and argue about it a lot so be prepared for discussion about it to be difficultjust off the top of my head
>>538225034No they don't their turns last like 15 minutes somehow
accesscode crypter sure is an interaction the game needed
which deck bricks their going first hand most? ryzeal or maliss?
>>538225413but still 8x
>>538226140One at a time, slowly, as if reading a spreadsheet.
>>538226140Not if they run it with some other engine (100% of them do)
>>538225954Its gotta be Ryzeal, the amount of times I've drawn 5-7 handcraps over multiple turns and just passing is crazy
>>538227073Yeah same. I don't know how I always brick and my opponent never does.
I'm gonna book a LOT of niggers.
I'm gonna banish a LOT of faggots!
Lol, adra's first effect always comes in clutch. It doesn't target and the choice is made at resolution
>>538229346mfw people dont read grand breakout's gy effect
Why do I always like the most retarded dogshit archetypesWhy am I building a vampire deckWhy can't I just play meta like the cool kids
>>538230418Better to be SOVLful than a meta automaton.
>>538230418Play commander instead there you cab actually have fun with vampires
>>5382240985Ds secondaries are somehow more insufferable than DM boomers.
>>538230418I feel your painthere are two voices in my head, one of them says "you should finally get around to building a meta deck, you'll like Memento and win games"the other says "yeah but that Amazon deck is really funny and if you win with it you'll feel even better"
>>538231027>you'll like Mementono you won't
As much as YGO sucks be glad we are not MTG right now.>Scalper centered collectables even for shit like Spengebab Redditpants>Jews of The West unironically believe people will flock to the game and spend $2000 shekels on the latest crossover casual deck>Aimless as fuck >Ruined the entire lore and now they are doing tropes (Haunted House, Wacky Races, Starfield)>Token / ETB Abuse SlopTolarian Academy, which was the best MTG channel, reduced to doing actual clown shows like pitting the gayest yugioh youtuber versus their most heterosexual player.And that is when the Professor isn't just looking depressed while talking about the latest set.
>Troon The Gathering ewI wouldn't have sex with that even if it was free
>>538231098at first I was skeptical but I actually got to try it during the recent duel trial and I had a lot of fun with it
SLUT!!!
too bad commander would never work in yugiohi had the thought these games are better when u can play them more than 1 way
>>538233139Having one main mode and then a LTGM that comes around sometimes is like peak spreadsheet player retention bullshit that companies have ended on
>>538230418I often build a meta deck ofter accumulating URs, play it for 2 days and dismantle it for something stupid. Just today I dismantled a Tenpai deck because I was feeling like trying Argostars. The longest running deck I have is a Shinobird
>>538233741It would be nice to be able to get anything for casual or solo. Having to slog through net deck tier 0 with your net deck tier 0 is so.Fucking.Boring.Even solo is more interesting
>>538235661There is like 10k+ gems in solo mode now, and they add more sometimes, so that's nice
...i just won my coinflip 8x in a row
Is Wee Witch's Apprentice a loli?
>>538236954hebes
>>538236780ok?
>>538237073So she's young.Good enough for me.
>>538236780kill yourself Chang.
How much do they make off of the less than 20k player base?
the game can still be saved konami simply unban sneedlefiber
Unban Pot of Greed.
>bait the 5k memento>he summon creation king from GY>thrust into evenly>evenly>he chain creation king>30s delay>connection failedkek
>>538238851didn't pak have an all royal deck? probably players like him
>>538238851someone posted a list a few threads ago with last monthly earnings or some shitand I think master duel was the 3rd best selling card game last month still
>>538196068>but if you do so, you cannot activate the effect of "purple poison magician" as cl 3wait whati thought trigger effect that triggered at the same time all goes in chain regardless of how you order it?electrumite being cl1 because it's mandatory is understandable, but can't activate purple poison because astrograph is on earlier chain just makes no senseis this related to how auto-chain thing happens? something about GY/face-up ED must trigger first before hand?
>>538244979ocg rules, effects that activate in a non public location take priority over other effect activations in public locations, because they do not have the timing as ones that do, so you missing timing, unlike in the tcg where its sequenced when theyre triggered
>using steam charts to shitpost for a game that's on literally everything that can run it.doomtards have nothing better to do, eh?
>>538250243>effects that activate in a non public location take priority over other effect activations in public locationsbut the answer said that you need to activate purple poison first (public location in face-up ED) then astrograph (non-public location)
>>538250583priority in the sense it has precedents over other activations in the same time because your opponent has the chance to respond, not that its a mandatory activation, so any effects that trigger in a non public location are considered "quick effects" that only be chained after you opponent, so you miss timing if you astrograph first, unlike in the tcg where its has to be electrumite, purple poison, and astrograph, because thats the order they triggered in
What if yugioh decks were required to have ten normal monsters, each a different star level?
>goes first>resolves droll>has called by set and plugin and the field spell>detonator and starleige on the field>still loseKek. Ryzeal is such a shit fucking deck of the highest magnitude.
>>538251623forgot that he also had that stun counter trap that destroys the column. it's just a terrible deck.
>>538251623>>538251727stop trying to make this "ryzeal is shit" psyop happen, no one's falling for it.
>>538252206not him but I fell for it
>>538251623A lot of the people playing it are dogshit I've found. Same with maliss but its even harder to fail to let that deck carry you.I had one ryzeal player flip D Barrier on me when I summoned a fusion to banish Cross. Then later in the turn when I used S:P they chained Lancea.Nigga come on.
>>538251623>>538251727stories from gold
>>538251623Lemme guess, Cross got baited and they just instantly TTT'd you
Going first actually feels like utter shit. No game ever happens without the mulcharmies or maxx c
Give me 1 reason to play this dogshit game made by greedy jews for unwashed mouth breathing virgins?There is no point in playing ladder because you get 1k gems per division at best before challenger.You will 90% run into HERO Niggers, Maliss Pedos and Wannabe Kaiba Blue Eyes.Can't earn Gems by playing casual, can't dismantle cards from legacy packs.
>>538262360Also can't make money by wining tournaments, collecting will lose you money.
>opponent goes first>open cross-out, called by, tactics, and tachyoni also want custom hand like this
Phew, can't believe I manage to reach M1 before new pack get released and every T1 decks become even more resilient
>>538262360The only part of your post that made any sense was maliss pedos.>HERO in 2025lmao go back to /pol/, retard
>>538236452I think I've got all the gems, now I just have to finish the loaner field but I'm too lazy
look at the decklists and tell me the game isn't a jokehttps://www.masterduelmeta.com/articles/tournaments/challenger-cup/september-2025/5/report
>>538271979My bro Fraudshua Schmidt once said diverse format ain't good for tournament and whatnot because you can't prepare a strategy and counter for a multiple decks
Pure Fire King is kinda based
>>538271979>adding desirae, creation king, and binder just for metaltronus targeti meanmight as well use reaper at that point
Is there any easilly accessible API for tournment decklists? I have only found card info API.I'm working on some non-parametric bayes stuff (using lace: https://www.lace.dev/introduction.html) and I think it would be fun to apply cross-categorization to yugioh datasets.
???
>>538274248your best bet prolly inspecting mdm and see if you can scrape their data
>>538275629I wouldn't wanna cost HIM extra costs
>>538273145The problem with Reaper is that it is bad.
>>538276410not as bad as using metaltronus on fucking white binder surely
>>538276452Reaper is still worse because you'd have to be running Reaper in order to draw it vs Maliss. Metaltronus is better because you gain the chance to draw it vs the other decks and it's not dead going first.
>>538278732metaltronus ain't free manyou need the specific target in your deck, and you sure ain't hitting any in other deck considering ryzeal got that weird as fuck typing of thunder and pyroand reaper also ain't dead going first, your endboard is only like, 2 monsters after all
Are the anime worth watching? I have only seem the original when I was a kid. Do they actually follow rules on the other ones?
>>538279235there's a bit of anime bullshit in every series but it tends to vary, like Vrains is really close but then we have character specific skills that are just straight up cheating, if anything I'd say Zexal is the closest to be just straight up YGO and even that's not perfectpersonally I really like Arc-V for just how insane it gets but even then it still has the 'super rushed 2nd half' problem
>>538279235All of them minus Vrains, but also including Sevens and Go Rush.
>>538279153Reaper also needs specific targets but is just worse because it allows the opponent to pivot their turn based on what you rip while Tronus actually helps deal with their endboard directly. Like in the mirror if you take their Detonator then they just end on Bagooska and vice versa.Reaper isn't a secret card, it gets discussed every time a new format is starting.
>>538279235They're kind of worth watching.The original one has a lot of filler but it does a good job of making the duels interesting. I would suggest just reading the manga but the anime is still good.GX is OK but pretty childish. If you're fine with that it can be fun but watch the sub, the dub turns too much of it into a proto-ironic weeb abridged-style shitpost.5Ds has some very strong parts but also some awful parts.I didn't like Zexal but it's very popular in Japan.I thought Arc-V sucked and couldn't get past like episode 6 but a lot of people say it has a good start.The Rush Duel anime are aimed at a younger audience. I liked Go Rush more than Sevens.
The solo mode scenarios are actually pretty fun, they should do it for more archetypes
>>538278732Nah, with reaper you only need to worry about called by and brick against unexpected rogue deck, but with metaltronus you need to worry about Ash, Impulse, brick, can't be targeted protection and many other spell and trap cards that allow your opponent to dodge it (Maliss' trap cards, Droplet and whatnot)t. crafting 3 copies of metaltronus, and regret it in less than a week
>>538279694dumdum, try hitting metaltronus on binder and see what happens
>>538280526It's not that Metaltronus on Binder is good, it's that Reaper is really bad in the current meta. and essentially all metas
>>538280807but surprise, surprise, metaltronus is even worsealso, it's lethal in mirror, just hit their detonator and even if they bring up bagooska, you can just stall or just summon your own detonator and wait until they turn that shit offand you also don't need to blind binder the first time you can do it, do it right before they summon apo and they'll just keel over
>>538279235Every anime series is moments of peak kino intersperced between dozens of episodes of fucking nothing happening at all.>DM: mainly just nostalgic but the final duel between Yugi and Atem is perfection and sets the standard for all high stakes duels for the rest of the franchise>Dark Sides of Dimension: Epilogue movie to DM with Kaiba as the protagonist. Pretty great. >GX: Starts out with low stakes lighthearted schoolyard drama, gets darker very quickly after that. Along with Zexal this is the only series that gets better as it goes along instead of worse. Be warned if you like any character besides Jaden/Judai the show will punish you for it. They are ALL wasted.>5Ds: The first arc is potentially the best Yugioh has ever been, nosedives in quality after that. >Zexal: The most consistently good series imo. It does devolve into filler villain of the week stuff occasionally but when the plot does get rolling it has a great cast of heroes/villains/rivals that all get a lot of screentime and development, compared to other series which heavily lean on the protagonist to carry the entire show. >Arc-V: Lol lmao lol>Vrains: Unfortunately very rushed towards the end but I still like it. It's production just wasn't even given a chance to succeed. These are all objectively correct opinions btw.
>>538281173That's just wrong. Metaltronus is pretty good in this format. That's not just my opinion but the general consensus. You can go play the WCS event and pick the deck that has Metaltronus in it if you want. Reaper is as bad as ever.
>>538281625try metaltronus a binder and see what happens beb
Maliss is literally killing masterduelhow can you even deny this
>>538281974>be perpetual silverlet/goldlet>have only encountered 1-2 Maliss and Ryzeal thus far
>>538281974I'm glad to see more people opening their eyes to Maliss. Remember when you'd get called a Josh glazer for daring speak ill about the deck?
>>538282253I think that josh has the credentials and credibility to make that statement lolReply
>>538281625>Metaltronus is pretty good in this format>general consensusSure buddy, that's why it's in the top #50 most used cards right after motherfucking Light Dragon @Ignister, right?
Did Konami smoke crack when they gave Maliss those random draw effects?RANTJust think about it: Cheesy Cat is straight up better than Pot of Greed. Pot of Greed “only” goes +1 in card advantage every time it resolves, but Cheesy Cat doesn’t lose advantage at all, even if it gets Ashed. Its so called “cost” of banishing a Maliss card isn’t even a cost; it’s a built-in combo enabler and starter. On top of that, the stupid Cat can be reset infinitely every turn, and White Binder casually draws you an extra card during basic Maliss lines. Compare that to Ryzeal’s field spell, which makes you put two Ryzeal cards back into the deck or extra deck just to draw a single card - and you can’t even do that until after you’ve already comboed off.The wildest part? These draw effects are worded so casually, like they’re nothing—just some throwaway LP gain or minor burn effect. If both Pot of Greed and Graceful Charity were legal at 3 I argue a lot of lists wouldn’t even play it because it’s already way too consistent.
shut up demetto
>>538282650>Just think about it: Cheesy Cat is straight up better than Pot of GreedI hate this deck but that just isn't true. PoG draws 2 by itself for nothing. If you don't have another Maliss in hand then Chessy does nothing, and you'd need to Normal Summon it to start.
>>538283092PoG also can't be searched nor summon itself
>>538283092you're replying to literal chatgpt
This nigga is dripped out, best fits in the anime

Doesn't doomposting get boring after a while?
new>>538285016
>>538284182Is it actually worth playing (both in terms of the game itself and the client)? I have tried a few online card games recently, but I just end up sticking with master duel or arena. It feels like all other card games are scared of interaction.The master duel meta is awful right now, but the overall state of MtG is worse. I have never spent a cent on online card games, but I'm thinking about either going to MTGO for cubes and drafts and maybe renting cards for legacy
it's been 3000 years....
>>538284182that game's meta and amount of content isn't any better lmaofeels like they saw master duel's barebones game modes basically being entirely pvp and copied it
Opponent card: negate any of your opponents effects; this cannot be negated. Toss all cards in your opponent hand and extra deck and field to banishment face downI've not been able to play a single card that hasn't been immediately negated in like 6 games.
