Mikankobros, are you still here with me?
>>538285272I didn't draw my multiples of my outs and Bagooska put me to sleep.
>>538285272No, we are all downloading pokemon tcg in preparation for the new selection pack. God bless
is his gameplan just waiting for me to destroy waking the dragon
>>538285678He has the god-tier insta-win card Ghost Reaper. Why would he need another game plan?
>>538285063absolutely no idea, I never played the pokemon TCGI just finished the tutorial and now I'm checking videos for good beginner decks, the client looks fine
doomGODS are feasting
>>538285678it's HATwithout the A and the T
>>538286083ptcgl is funny because they don't even let you spend money in-gamenever seen a game not allow you to buy anything in it
>Feb 2025>fiendsmith release for the meta enjoyers, exodia release for the boomer enjoyer, anniversary for the freebee enjoyers >things are looking great >release maliss and ryzeal >playercount almost overnight craters to levels we haven't seen before >reveal a new pack at all time player count lows >it's more maliss support and another way to play ryzeal This is now a doomchad general. Hopecucks and bootlickers, please exit at your nearest convenience.
>>538287791are those numbers considering console and mobile players? if so it is very low
>>538288004Just steam
>>538288004No the only data was have is Steam, the total players are higher but player count tends to be universal and follows a trend.
Oh yeah?How about fuck you, and you too, and you too, and you too, and you too, and you too, and you too, and you too, and you too, and you too, and you too, and you too, and you too, and you too!
>>538287791we need the silksong audience
>>538287654I haven't checked but don't boosters have codes you can redeem for digital packs? I guess they just expect people to go and buy cardboard for the codes if they want to spend money
>>538288410Also worth noting that it only tracks concurrent players, not players per day. So only some of those are actual player losses while some of them are players like me who are sticking with the game but just logging in for dailies then dipping as opposed to sticking online to grind. If you're just popping in for 1-30 mins and are waiting for the meta to shift then you aren't likely to show up in the steam chart player counts.
>>538288572>picStill more honest than Joshua Nigger Schmidt the stun homo pretending to not like stun.
>>538287791it's over...
>>538288637yeah, that is the only way to spend on the gameeither buy the packs yourself irl, or buy someones second hand code cards
>>538288572I'm excited for morganite so I can play stun with a mommy and Krystia
Lorefags, what are the number XYZ cards supposed to represent?
Doesn't the in game log break the rule against note taking?
DoomGODS own this general now. We won
>>538290103Astral's memories or some shitit is explained in the Zexal anime
>>538285612Don't you think its a mistake to go diamond ? If you do not grind to M1 you're missing on quite a bit of gems, might as well stay plat so you farm gold gem next season.
>>538290485Being unable to communicate with your opponent breaks the rules for public information. Note taking rules are probably more about the time it takes to make them than anything else.
>>538287791How long till EoS?
>>538290826This is a retard way of thoughtYou don't get more gems from not playing
>>538291115mathlet shouldn't answer to my post
>>538290961They would stop printing paper before they EOS MD. Though I do think they will make a 2nd simulator at some point and sunset MD to ramp up the monetization.
>>538290826>>538291269You can barely speak, you obviously don't know fuck all about math retard
>>538290826If you make it to diamond 5 by luck and can't progress then you would be better off sitting at platinum 1 so you rank down to gold.
if you're playing past plat, you're behind
>>538290826oh, don't worryi'll get to master 1 by the end of the month
if you're playing past silver, you're behind
>>538291381yeah thats what I thought. I wonder at what rank does it make it worth ranking up, maybe around M3 I would say ?>>538291378English is my 5th language, shut up you bum, nobody will give a shit about 'merica and its dumb language in 20 years, your currency will only be used to clean asses>>538291813based confidence, which I don't have, started pretty recently, waiting for Dragonmaid support and Dracotail. Looks fun.
>>538292008where's the math esl retard
>>538292093>>538291381
>>538292008>English is my 5th languageGet the fuck out of my general, subhuman filth. So tired of esltards always shitting up the general
>>538292008once you rank up to the next tier, not grinding to highest rank of that tier basically wasting gemsbecause both M1 and M5 will rank down to D5
>>538292508That's not math you stupid fucking retard
>HOW 9 MORE THAN 5 SHOW PROOFshut up ape
>could have been Ryzeal cross>instead they gave it a dumb restriction that made it situational and unplayablewhy do they hate branded
>>538292008Part of the advantage of ranking down to gold is that you can't derank so you are effectively guaranteed all the gold gems
>esl monkey calling anyone else an apeTop jej
>>538292686You only need to get to M3 to gain more gems than you'd get for stopping at D1. If you can make it to M5 you should be able to get at least M3 without much difficulty. It's only a question of whether you want to play the amount of games required to do so.For Diamond you need to get D2. Getting only D3 will leave you an irrecoverable 50 gems poorer. But that's not counting duel reward gems.
>forgot to join the tournament again
>>538287791DoomKEK...
>>538299667MDkeks... Our response?
>>538299667>no exact numbers It could have went from 2.9 million to 2.1 million and we wouldn't know
>>538299667It's funny because the shadowverse tournament just happened and was a bigger failure than oursespecially because the players were fucking dogshit at their own gamehttps://arazu.io/t3_1nauex5/
>>538299667>MD is right next to a confirmed dead gameDoomposters won.
This morning I lost 90% of my matches against the asian and now in the evening when all the westerners are on, I win 3/5.
>>538299667Topps BUNT bros, we're winning.
>>538300851ok
>>538300851>plat FOURholy shit you're basically a pro
>plat 5lol
>>538299667Who the fuck plays shadowverse?
>>538302707It's shadowverse 2 which came out recently so people are giving it a chance.
>>538299667So, master duel needs to attract new customers. May I suggest a $5 for 50k gems deal and PvE game modes? Maybe bring back tag duels?
>>538304324Hmmm.... what if instead they added 3 missions per month that gave 20 gems each?
>>538304434How about I just leave?
i need despia support. is the anime really ending before getting to that point

there was a trap card that let you make the opponent throw away all his cards if he had over 7 or something. what was the name

Thinking about building either Nekroz or Ghoti, which one should I go for bros?
damn HIS hair is really gray
>>538311413Ghoti is a very cheap archetype though it does want the water ED staples. It's also far far better than Nekroz. If you want to build Nekroz don't build it now, wait for the support. It'll still be kinda bad but far better than the terrible it is now.
>>538307016no fucking way
i'm so sick of using the normal art dark magician. give me some fucking alt art

does anyone have a good cheap list for crooked cook and exodia? i'm not gonna climb in this garbage meta so at least me making them miserable
>>538318823i should just pull for ryzeal main deck monsters it seems to be the most consistent way
If Maliss is supposedly so fucking good then how do you explain this, nerds? It loses to so much shit, even to a single fucking imperm, it's not even funny

>>538321709Buy an ad
>>538285016Lol, no
>>538304434m8 the 20 gems and random booster we're getting every 3 days does fucking add up, it's actually very suspicious for KONMAI to be so generous, i bet they're about to introduce paid (with real money, not gems) cosmetics
>>538324841and gachas and/or gaas are doing fine, they don't give shit. It is when they are starting to fall that they start to give free stuff.
There isn't a single Illusion-type monster who's a loli.Fix this Konami.
>>538325067They want maliss to be the top dog for once i guess, it got mogged mercilessly in every paper format, and it also did poorly in worlds.Forced shilling aside, it is nice to see konami not shy away from anime girl decks, 'member when they used to be pariahs until sky striker showed them that people will buy more cardboard if it has pretty women printed on them?

99% of the art posted here is so shit it doesnt even get me hard but that spic can draw some coom
>>538299667as if losing to hearthstone wasn't sad enough, now also shadowverse? pathetic
oh man, this next pack sucks major ass
>>538324841The free packs will add up if they keep this going. The 20 gems is better than nothing but that's all you can say for it. We don't know yet if it's going to be every 3 days, 3 times per month, or if this is a one time thing.
Finally got enough Maliss stuff assembled to run the deck. These combos sure are long, but maybe I haven't played enough linkslop to get comfortable with it. The timer has gotten a bit scary.
>>538299667I never really got into it, but Shadowverse's promise of something comfy you can play on a 15-minute break seems pretty cool if they actually achieved it.It's basically weeb Hearthstone, right?
If I don't like the art of an archetype, I don't play it, simple as
>>538335674Based
>play Dinomorphia>lose the coin flip>opponent uses a Millennium cardJust a completely fucking unwinnable matchup. Your opponent has to be actually retarded to lose between having a S/T negate and a fucking field nuke every turn
>>538337083Mass removal going second is 100% the Achilles heel of set 5 pass decks. Far worse to face than an omni-negate spam combo deck. I've gotten a ton of free wins vs these sorts of decks by bouncing their entire backrow in the endphase with PUNKs.
>>538335674What are your favorite archetypes in terms of art/lore/theme bros?Mine are>Shinobird>Nephthys >Fire King>Magnifistorm>Worm>Ghoti
>>538339297you seem based, I feel like fag now:>voiceless>centurion>rescue-ace>orcust>odion>libromancer
Removing rooms and match history data?
>>538339297>Dinomorphia>Utopia>Predaplant>Mimighoul>Drytron
>>538343975They do this once or twice a month. If you make a duel room it stays open even if you close the game and so they clear them out periodically. And the 6 bytes needed to store your match history+replay info is too expensive for them so they also clear all your replays out that you didn't save.
>>538285272>Open the pack the first 3 times>Royals and half of the URs>Open it 6 times more>URs from outside the packThese hoes aint loyal.
>Pull 2 of every Maliss card>Feel pretty good>Still need 200UR to finish the deck>Expiring in two daysI won yet still lost.
HE is coping about a banlist coming tonight. Is HE right?
Is Guardian Chimera overrated?
>>538349381No.
>>538347274HE is tired of the same two decks in HIS tournament. Something must be done to satisfy HIS hunger.
>>538351132how did HE do it, does he have a massive dick?
what's the correct target for bonfire if you have nothing? ext or star?

When was the last time you thought about Ashened?
Mating Pressing Purrely...
>>538352559so you don't know either?
how do you deal with tenpai with maliss
>>538353807make terahertz
>>538353807just banish chundra?
>>538352842The other day when I saw a duel live of someone using Veidos as a handtrap to destroy Maliss field spell when it activates
>>538354051isn't that just a gimmickier ogreor even delta
>>538354962Ogre wouldn't work and you'd need to play a brick for Delta.But obviously it is a gimmick.
>queue up for my last tryout match>kicked outFUCK YOU
>lose coinflip>opponent use roach>tactic their hand>shuffle super poly>summon terrahertz>they draw super poly anywaymother fucker
Will MD ever ban Apo and Baronne?
>>538356359yeah totally, right after the maxx c ban
>>538356359They will never ban Apollo because chinks whaled for the alt art, screenshot this
>>538356359lmfao
I hate summoning too much and doing combos + learning sheets is pain. I also don't like stun decks... Does modern Yu-Gi-Oh even have a deck for me? I'm fine with it being below tier 3 or being rogue!
>>538356651burn
>>538356651Nemleria
>>538356697>>538357751Thanks bros, I'll try those decks
>>538356491I feel like the MD balance team thinks they're a necessary evil, given the existence of Maxx C.
>>538356651I suggest handtrap exodiamy go to deck when I don't want to think
>>538358407Oh interesting, the ones I saw before were mostly exodia stun, I'll test your one too
Holy fuck dude. I can not get away from this card.
>>538359429it doesn't need to be those specific handtraps either, I swap the ghost belles/veilers around a lot with ogres/drolls/lanceas/etc, you can just use the handtraps you have reallyI've seen some lists using droplets instead of super polys if you have those toosuper poly is just a personal favorite of mine
>>538325129
>>538285016>opp on a ritual deck>i'm on ashened and veidos'd the entire fieldpoor guy, really liked the theme of the deck
Bring back millers
>>538362614this seems fun actually, I might try this, what's that one next to Benten? it's the only one I don't recognize
>>538363013It looked like fun from my end and I've been wanting to make a megalith deck so that deck looks like a good start. Also the card is pic related. masterduel doesn't list any related cards but their ritual spell ritual of grace so it doesn't look to be a complete archetype
>>538362614are you in bronze>>538363013northwemko
>>538363421man I never even heard of this thing before, thanks, I couldn't make it out in the image

>>538366964i never knew pokemon had a mdm-like
>>538346489You can get away with 2x march hare if you run the SR bystials, what exactly are you missing? 1 of each name (except crypter i guess, since you only run 1), 2 gold sarc, decoder and firewall?
I have every single Maliss card and have since they launched but haven't touched the deck. It intimidates me for some reason.Is there a quality "Maliss for DUMB-DUMBS" tier video out there? Assume I've never played a combo deck more complex than Live Twins.
>>538366964I love how /vp/ instantly shut down Dkayed on his attempt being relevant in TCGPThey just use existing TCG sources when gauging the meta
>>538370379Everyone else uses it even if they don't
>>538368350These are the uninterrupted end boards for Maliss>Doormouse Apo + Crypter or (Firewall + Linguriboh) + GWC + March Hare in hand>White Rabbit + March Hare/Bystial Same as Doormouse>Chessy Cat + March Hare/BystialApo + Firewall + GWC + March Hare in hand>White Rabbit soloCrypter + GWC + March Hare in hand>Underground + Gold Sarc soloSame as White Rabbit if you really bricked upThe trick to playing Maliss is to hope you always open with HTs / Non-Engine since it determines if you win on the spotMaliss is busted since half of the deck is starters/pseudo starters and has a lot of non-Maxx C package non-engine space
>got hit by nib+imperm combo>even though i had enough resource to go for linguri firstdamni'm dumbi should've known better when dude let me combo
>>538372526If you have an additional Maliss name when Ransom and Decoder is on the field its better to get Linguriboh after the Apo summon
when's the best time to ash on ryzeali saved it for duodrive but fucker just ext into sword into ice into star into cross
>>538373464Hand traps don't work on Ryzeal, it's either draw Imperm and save it for your turn, or some sort of non responding interacting like Superpoly or Ultimate Slayer and hope they don't have the recursion. I've had some good luck with Ghost Reaper running 1 copy of Deadnamer in my extra deck as a schizo out, and it actually works. But I'm also running Red Ransom, blue eyes link 1 and Fiendsmith Sequence for extra schizo targets. But also, Extra-Foolish Burial send N'tss or Aggregator is actually super neat but not very practical. It's very hard to hand trap Ryzeal because they always draw the starter, the extender, and the Just In Case™ card which can be any number of random bullshit. Not to mention the stupid field spell. Yea I just save Imperm for my turn, or if I have 2 I Imperm Duodrive on their turn and Deadnamer on mine.
>diamond 3>maliss, maliss, maliss, ryzeal, maliss, ryzeal>diamond 4>pendulum, gimmick puppet, tenpai
>>538373464duo is the right targetif they start with normal summoned sword, its another good targetmaybe normal summon ice alsoin your case, they added ext to hand or just had it already which, not much you can do about that
what are some good engine you can splat on anything except fiendsmith, I'm fucking tired of fiendsmith
>>538375157primite, millenniumyou can probably shove ryzeal into a bunch of shit too
>>538375157kashtiramillenniumprimitedragoon lmao
>>538373464Instead of Ash, you should use Ghost Ogre on Duo Drive.
>>538374767At least in diamond you're likely to find netdeckers and can play against it with enough game knowledge. Platinum is the REAL Diamond, that's where chinks go to play random fucking bullshit cards that haven't seen use in a decade and it's always the exact effect they need to reach wincon and stopping you completely. Blowouts in Plat feel so fucking bad man.
>>538373464Read the Ryzeal field spell
>>538375912Meant to link this: >>538375534
>>538373464Ash basically doesn't work on them.If they NS Sword or Ice first play, fire it and pray - or Ash the Barian spells.Ash on Duodrive on bad hands can work but its not very common.Any other case it does jack shit.
>>538375998If they sent Aggregator with Ext and/or did Duodrive first, Ogre can still work.They need 3 materials to protect from Ogre.
>>538378083Very cool, but it's irrelevant to what you replied to.
whats post support trickstar like anyway? I swear I haven't seen this deck once since the new cards got added
holy shit Maliss are actually so hard to pilot I would sincerely like to apologise to anyone I may have insulted while shitposting here
>>538373464NS SwordDuo DriveIceIn that order
>>538378702The best advice I've seen on Maliss is that your endboard will reflect on what kind of non-engine you have in your handDon't even be afraid when they activate a Charmy since you can end on a competent endboard while giving them a couple of draws which will likely be HOPT dupes if they netdecked
>>538300296It's not a good idea to gatekeep playing Shadowverse behind paypigging Cygames are one of the greediest companies alive. F2P is the one thing MD does right. At the same time this is the only August where MD hasn't gained players and actually continues to lose players. The game is officially dipping to a 4 digit playercount daily; 1-2 months until it averages there. Konami are antagonistically killing this game off it's not just negligence. It makes absolutely no sense unless the intent is to sunset the YGO IP while bilking metaslaves. Annual nostalgia merch notwithstanding.
Rate my going-second handtrap.>Activate only on Turn 1, if you were the player selected to go second (this is a Quick Effect). You can send this card from your hand to the GY; activate one of these effects, based on when you activated this card.>● Draw Phase - Immediately after this effect resolves, draw 2 cards.>● Other - Banish 1 card on the field face-down.
>>538380985It's funny that Shadowverse is F2P hostile while Umamusume is probably one of the friendliests gachas out there
Damn, almost lost a Maliss mirror match because the guy put 2 Mirrors in his deck.

>>538383561I feel like you're mocking me...
>>538382794hes been like this for a while now
>>538382794HE is completely right
I'm just gonna keep doing my dailies every few days so I have a lot to blow on Diabelstar's alt art and WF. All I really care about
>>538382794I don't think I've seen a single deck demoralize this community outside DD Dynamite FTK, and that one got emergency banned pretty quickMaliss is such a fucking mistake
>I go secondScoop>MalisScoop>RyzealScoopthis game is getting less and less playable
>>538385437This, except>TenpaiAlso scoop
>>538386062i havnt seen tenpai in a long ass time..
I blame flawless invincible monsters and negate walls. Ryzeal is just a stun deck. Maliss only wins because it beats the hand traps that everyone makes half their deck out of. Combos are boring as hell. Limit everyone to 5 summons per turn, actually use the rules to make a game more playable. Fucking Konami, you lazy shits.
>>538382794
>>538370379/vp/ also is the reason why there's a Pokemon thread on /vg/. They wouldn't know a great resource even if it hit them in the balls.
>>538386917>/vp/ allows you to delete your own threads?????For what purpose? Did the mods forget to check a box or something?
it's been 8 hours8 hours since i grinded diamond 5now i'm still at diamond 3 and all i got to show are 100 legacy ticketsholy shit i'm a fucking weaksaucei'm gonna wait for @ignister to drop and see if i can scrounge up enough dust leftover after everything to craft 3 impulse and ash+cross-outor maybe super poly, idk
>>538382794we should all move to duel links.
>>538387345they're autistic furfags. there's no logic to their reasoning
>>538378702Nigga this shit is carried as hell
I find Ryzeal more annoying than Maliss, honestly.
>>538390968no you don't
>>538390968Ryzeal is just fucking boring. If I scoop to them it's only because I don't want to see the same exact shit again or I can't deal with Bagooska
why does selection pack need to have filler URwhy can't we just have 3 good decks every selection pack and roll with itit's not like it's gonna hurt sales and all, everyone still buying the same packin fact, it'd prolly boost overall sales because after getting bored with one deck, people will try the other deck for variety and shit, which means they need double the URs
>>538390968Cheeto crusted Maliss player fingers typed this post
>>538390968Explain.
Which tag force game should I play if I want to fuck Alexis?
>meowl and 3 starter>roach and 3 starter>fuwalos and 3 starterusing tactics is just suffering manit doesn't even works that well against ryzeal, their detonator usually goes sudoku immediately
>>538391707I don't like how frontloaded your negate usage has to be against them.
>>5383923161-3 is GX
>>538385050Runick Stun, around the end of 2022 was the best deck. That was somehow less miserable than Maliss format
>>538392420>>roach and 3 starterWhy on earth wouldn't your opponent chain Maxx C to TTT's handrip. Did they draw both?
>the event this month is just a duelist cup (ranked 2.0)PFFTHAHAHAHA
>>538394108Master Duel has never had events it has 0 effort restriction queues with gems as bait
>>538394268I guess MD is dying again (but it probably actually is, since YGO isn't that appealing to get into unless you're nostalgic for one of the animes).
>>538395047>since YGO isn't that appealing to get into unless you're nostalgic for one of the animesThis is probably the biggest problem they need to fix. They really need to do something like make that branded series into a real actual anime.
>>538394108>ranked 2.0k
>>538395279I enjoy YGO as a game in no small part because it's such a different experience to EDH Magic games that take forever. However, I'm also a bit of a yugiboomer, so I'm disposed to think fondly of the IP.However, it took a lot of MD to get modern YGO, and a lot more MD to get to the point of being comfortable enough with how things work to even think about paper.
>>538395279The OCG structure deck manga thingy is a step in the right direction imoBut that also exacerbates how fucked up modern YGO is kek
>>538394108they announced this month's event already?
>>538396618I like how it just skips ahead to the endboard in most cases
>>538395620this time it will be 39 maliss35 rryzeal15 mermail16 some others
>>538395809>I enjoy YGO as a game in no small part because it's such a different experience to EDH Magic games that take forever.Aside from getting new blood, this is yugiohs other main problem which is the onboarding experience. I'm sure we're all familiar with the same joke you see thousands of times in low effort videos talking about yugioh where someone who watched the anime like 20 years ago then trys to play modern yugioh but then complains about how their opponent activates 50 cards and summons a hundred times to cover the board in a billion negates but that is how people feel trying to get into modern yugioh.If you're someone casual which is the vast majority of players, you have absolutely no reason to get into yugioh or stick to it. There is nothing like a current anime to get you interested, we don't have good looking cards to collect with ecelebs chimping out when they pull them like in pokemon which gets a lot of kids into pokemon now and if you're not familiar with tcgs then yugioh is probably the hardest one to get into.This means the only people interested in yugioh are people who either liked the anime as a kid and those people willing to try are just getting fewer and fewer, or people interested in tcgs in general but that means every other tcg is competing for that persons attention. This is why the one piece tcg has just been retarded popular and why yugioh fell out of the top 3 tcgs in japan.We need casuals and in order to get more casuals we need shit like a branded anime or a DM reboot.
>>538394268the dice rally event was fun, I thought konami would keep on making higher effort events like it but they went right back to their usual lazy cups with arbitrary restrictions
>>538396835no but we know there is a duelist cup
>>538397389That was goofy fun. I really enjoyed the dice and coins.
>>538396926SameIt gets confusing as fuck if you knows jack about the related deck, but that's just authentic YGO experienceSkipping all that long combo line and just focusing on the actual interaction parts is just ingenious
>>538397578we do?
>>538397205Yeah, it's a shame that the game is genuinely hard to get into. I enjoy that it's so different from the sea of Duel Masters-likes (with the exception of Digimon, which I really like even though I'm not particularly nostalgic for the IP).It's just that paper is expensive, and MD shortcuts the tedious searching and shuffling. It also helps the learning curve with the glowing card effects to help a new player piece together the next step of their archetype's gameplan.
>>538395620We had so much better, master duel is dead
>>538397578isn't DC on oct, dec and march?
>>538398938no, september. it was last year
>tutorial>normal summon, set 1 maybe, pass>solo gates>edea into eidos, tribute for cerberus, send phanteism, search shit, set 3 pass>ranked>ext into sword into ice get ashed summon duo drive activate cross anyway search get imperm cross draw 1 summon star thrust into storm summon castel, pass
>>538397205YGO feels a lot like a paper fighting game, where you just get hosed over and over by people that know somewhat more than you or if you aren't intimately familiar with your gameplan and don't come out firing on all cylinders.
>>538400365It's not at all like a fighting game. In a fighting game there is neutral, which would equate to a boardstate. There's no intricate boardstate back and forth in YGO, it's all entirely one sided. Not knowing matchup knowledge is applicable to almost any PvP game, it's not some cool quirk of YGO specifically.
>>538399515>MD was my introduction to yugioh>and also to card games>play tutorial>get to that 1 battlin' boxer solo gate>fail it 6 times>have to look up the solutionI think I'm the 1 in 1000 new yugioh player who tries Master Duel and continues playing. Why? Idk man...

Come on now, guys. Modern Yugioh is an experience both new and old players can enjoy. I know I'm having fun. :)
I fucking hate this game so much it's unreal.
man tag force special really fucking sucks I wanted to play something else while MD is dead
>>538391435>please stop making bad cards UR>make more of the cards people actually want into URs instead!Are you stupid?
>>538403323You and me both, started playing October 2023 and decided to make my first deck zombies during Kashtira meta.
>>538397205YGO card complexity is perfectly fine where it's retreated to now i.e. no more pend 2-cards-in-1 bullshit. Add the (1) (2) for effects like OCG has and it's good. Rulings and specific cards with bad descriptions being affected by those rulings make it very difficult for noobs to learn the game. Having every player tell you not to pick the game up because it's so mismanaged doesn't help either. Konami is a sinking ship. I can only cope that their future releases continue to fail so that YGO gets acquired and rebooted in 10 years.>>538401630This too. Top players used to liken the game to chess but it's not at all especially now when everything has infinite value if it resolves. If YGO were like chess that would mean>Cards all have specific uses they largely don't share effects so there's always a clear consequence to being interrupted except the rare RNG draw gambit like normal summon Aleister>You can't infinite combo and lock your opponent out of the game before they can play. This would mean rulings limiting offensive effects and no stun effects>New releases are focused on developing new styles of play without compromising the original releases>Majority of content is in the form of irl & online events, campaigns, solo offline & coop online modes, story, cosmetics.If yugioh were like chess it would need to be the counterstrike of TCGs and there really should be something permanently supported like that. Sign deals with shops to host ticketed events where they get a fair split and something exclusive to sell on top. I haven't seen any TCG adapt to modern times they all hopped on blizzards dick copying hearthstone or yet more dogwater MTG richard garfield comatose game design.
>>538408324that sounds reasonable from business side, no?
>>538409452chill john konami
>>538408743you sounds like you gonna have real fun with hyper chess
>waited for someone to paly for over 10 minutes only to get hit by maxx cIf the only option is uninstalling this garbage then let it be that.
>>538412230ehmmm didn't you read the ygo world's statistical analysis of maxx sneed? going second win rate is at an all time low so the roach is a necessary evil o algo
>>538357751What kind of idiot plays that garbage?https://files.catbox.moe/y3m85m.webm( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
>>538416856God I wish that deck actually did something.
^pedo deck
>>538417415It'd be nice
Fuck this card.
>>538418991>only usable in decks Konami has deemed are allowed to use it>its negate is effectively once per summon leaving the opponent a chance to mount a comeback>going second bonus effect>high risk high reward followup effectCertified ludo card. Its attack didn't need to be so high though.
>>538418991It should be banned on the principal of: if they want to lower the power level of the game, omni's need to go.
>>538418991I wish fleur was a real archetype
>>538419981You don't need to make up excuses for why you dislike something.

>>538420949Based. Don't forget to reply to the steamchart that either me or someone else will eventually post. EOS soon
>>538421507Pretty much every time my opponent has used that effect against me they just end up shuffling their Baronne back as I hit their starter in the GY with a Called by or Bystial.
>>538421791of course. 10k soon baby
>staying in the general of a game you hate and hoping the playercount drops lower and lowerYou """people""" are literally fucking autistic. Get a fucking life lol
>retard doesn't see that the lower the player count and the more people that leave means we might get some actual changes to the game just sit down and enjoy your maxx c format and DC cup "events" chud lol
this can't be it for the banlist...right?
Noob question: how do I counter Nibiru if I don't want to run Nibiru for crossout?
>hopecucks are already sweatingSub 10k average players by the end of the month. It's so over.
>12,617.9it's already half way after JUST hitting 12 yesterday. this is great
>>538423419Depends on your deck. Some can just keep comboing. Some have GY effects Nib will trigger. Some can set up a negate before the 5th summon. Some can set up a board in under 5 summons. Some can chain SP to protect their board. Some search out traps before getting Nibbed. Some have enough hand traps to try again next turn. Some just lose.
>>538423419You threaten to make Apo before commiting to your actual combo. Your deck can do this, right anon?
>check out a small streamer>he is grinding to master 1 (still in master 5)>his chat is impressed>he says he actually does coaching and they should hit him up for the pricing>proceeds to lose to 1 handtrap and scooplol
>>538423287Thank You For Playing Master Duel.
>>538422830Game could easily be good. If players keep logging in despite how absolutely dog shit the format is, they have no incentive to change anything. I want the game to fail so that it can get better smile

Please Konami, it's just two cards, come on you can find space for two cards, this pack isn't that interesting you need something more to make people buy it, come on the deck even has Cyberse in it so it matches the ignisters please
>>538425942DMG would have saved the pack. But leave it to Konami to never ever do the right thing.
>>538425886I thought only the cream of the crop can join T2? at least that's what maldred told me
>>538426127Please Konami it's just one card, it released in January so surely you can find space for it Konami come on it's just one card

>>538430513>adding an FTK to the pile of shitoh yeah real shaking
So what is konami plan with this game excatly? because it feels like they don't know what to do with it. like this game was a side project that got too big .
>>538429208what's killing maxx c gonna do? that certainly won't help against maliss
>>538431593I just hate the roach, i get it's nothing to do with maliss, i just think the roach is big gay and have thought so for a while. still though ban the bow bitch, ban fucking link decoder holy fucking shit.

>>538428604She's looking extra cute today.
>>538431313The new gem knight cards specifically halve the effect damage your opponent takes so they don't work with the FTK. It's played in the OCG as a standard go first and build a board strategy, and TCG as an OTK deck.
stunsneed
>>538432843that seems standard, most of them don't play the game
Just saw a tranny lab/maliss player fuck with a guy when it had game for 40 minutes.
spare a few gems sir?
>>538435624I’ve got 1338 gems wanna frot
>>538435624i only have 4k now because i spent everything i had on maliss and then ryzeal
>>538421945Every time I see it, it ficks me 6 ways from Sunday with its destroy this negate that
>>538382794The funniest part is... i'm not even mad about maliss shitting up the ladder for the next 2 months, snake-eye did it for nearly 2 years and only a couple of its monsters were cute girls, iirc only diabellstar (muscle girls are for closet homos), promethean princess, the :P onaholes and kunnikara, back when the deck ran a single copy to OTK. Maliss is ALL cute girls, and they're about to get another one.

>>538448529A called by that never got the chance to counter a hand trap both floodgating an opponent's starter, and removing their Baronne is good actually. Much better than it being destroyed by her ignition effect.
>>538434048>new gem knight cardsAnd what's stopping me from ignoring the new cards and just using the old ones to FTK?
>>538450632Because it's a really shitty FTK nowadays?
>>538450632The same thing stopping you now: That's not a good strategy, even with 2 more Brilliant Fusions.
>>538450632gimmick puppet is still a one card combo into FTK that is unaffected by most handtraps and its STILL badany other FTK is a complete meme in comparison

>>538451625> fucking you guys up with ftks left and rightEveryones on 20 handtraps so good luck lmao
>>538451449>literally any time I think "okay, let's play this Dragon deck today on ranked">without fail, will always run into one Buster Blader deckit's like it fucking knows, let me play my Photon in peace dammit
>>538451625Go ahead man. Nothing wrong with playing a bad deck. It's how I got the FTK lifetime mission done before Block Dragon's ban. It was seriously power crept even at the time. The new cards are what makes the deck worth playing beyond a gimmick.
>>538285016fucking perfect. it is those that feel they are above reading their opp cards that fall the hardest
When is the Live Twin support?
>>538452109>Go ahead man. Nothing wrong with playing a bad deckI wish more players embraced this. Or at the very least leave alone those that are willingly playing a "'bad deck'
>>538452830we don't really know, it should be likely within the next few selection packs since it's only 2 cards, could shove it in randomly in any pack
>>538452830We don't know. Possible they put it in tomorrow's pack since they don't usually announce every archetype and it's only 2 cards so it'd be fairly likely to go unmentioned. Otherwise it'd probably be in the next one.
Midnight or tomorrow day for the next pack?
