Tried Maliss for the first time after Ransom ban, while doing extra missions in Duelist Cup.
Having oponent just sit there, staring at Fissure with no way to out it made me feel both disgust and some kind of degenerate satisfaction, something like 'you keep baning my cards, so now deal with this bullshit' type.
Dangerous, and intoxicating feeling I tell you.

It could be 100x stronger for all I care
As long as its turns are quick and it makes the roach, droll and the coinflip a non-factor in games its still the best thing to happen to Yugioh
>>
this game must have a desire sensor or something, it almost have a full dracotail set when i don't want that archetype, and the packs refuse to give me the artmage cards i want
>>
>>550391458
>>550395118
A card disabling an entire type of card is unhealthy no matter what. Reboot is Feather Storm if it had no Winged Beast requirement, which is bullshit.
>>
>>550401789
5k into DT pack
Not a single Mululu or Faimena
>>
>>550402196
floodgates effectively work the same way and trapfaggots spam them all, ban all floodgates then i'll be fine with removing red reboot
>>
>>550402362
Reboot is making it in to main decks because it turns off 80% of a Dracotail or Odion endboard. not for floodgates. Nobody contests that floodgates should be banned.
>>
>>550402656
this 100%, reboot cannot be justified with floodgated in the current meta, currently it's just used to disable deck like dracotail, because if you red reboot their traps you can very easily kill them in 1 turn
>>
>>550402656
>PLEASE think of the archetype that puts three disruptive traps on the field with one card activation and get to draw 3 handtraps and of the negate spam archetype and its 9 dominus traps and its skill drain
nah. red reboot to 3.
>>
The dracotail traps could all just say “draw 1” and people would still run red reboot because yugioh is made up of faggots who desire to interact with their opponent as little as possible.
It’s embarrassing how TCGs where you can’t even do anything on your opponent’s turn actually have more interaction in any given match than this garbage.
>>
>tfw drew both Drolls for opening

>>550406527
if interractions made card games good runeterra would'nt be dead
>>
>>550406527
if they weren't drawing then I would have just been content with just droplet. but letting your opponent draw 3 is pure insanity. you think anyone loves running a card like that?
>>
>>550406837
Ruenterra was killed because it was run by a greedy company who wanted a way to milk infinite profits like other cards games so they moved to Riftbound.

Verte is fucking BAIT.
Stop running it already. Inferior deck building.
>>
>>550409574
I can't think of any good reason to summon verte over literally anything else
It's such a meme card
>>
>>550409923
Dracotail should already be on BraFu because it's a starter, there's no reason not to have the 1 Verte in the ED and when it comes up it matters a LOT. There's tons of hands where both I or my opponent would be stuck on 1 trap and maybe too few cards in hand to fuse with Faimena, but Verte into Albion gives an extra trap and summoning the Phryxul refills the whole hand.
>>

>>550411595

Verte is based. Dracoshart cards are what need to be hit. Faimena to 1. Rahu to 1.Arthalion to 1.
>>
>>550411595
If you win against Brandtroons Dracotail with your jank, says a lot about the player base.
>>
>>550412953
You want to go back to coombo FTK meta? Dracotail should be buffed
>>
>>550413031
>FTK meta
How is Dracotail going first and drawing 3 and setting up disruptions better
>>
>>550412953
Faimena needs to stay at 3. She’s what the game needs and more decks should have similar interaction. Hit the spells if you want.
>>
>>550413274
No we don't need more like her. Turn based game

We need more Kashtira-like cards, all the infinite recursion fags must be banished face down. I propose an omni counter trap that face down banishes the negated card.

I propose an omni counter trap that removes the negated card and all copies of it from the player's collection and they have to roll them again
also if after the resolution of this effect their deck size becomes less than 40 they automatically lose the game since decks with less than 40 cards aren't legal and their cards just got evaporated

I only play Sky Striker because it has a unique gameplay style compared to the rest of the meta and the toolbox approach to the link summons and the specific requirements to get the bonus effect are enjoyable to me.

Also it's less of a constant deck shuffling, deck fusion slop than other archetypes.

The only other deck I enjoyed besides it was Plunderr Patroll, but they are not meta right now.

Runeterra died also because the meta had some terrible UNINTERACTIVE moments that killed people's interest in it and eventually they tried to focus on a PVE single player mode that gave them 0 dollars in cosmetic sales.

It's funny that everyone saying dracotail is honest is a dracotail player. Yes it plays fast and thus its a lot less frustrating to go against than other tiered decks, but it's a tier 1 deck. Do you understand how dishonest a deck have to be to reach tier 1 in modern YGO?

>>550469263
So using ash to negate flame is terrible because, according to you, "then they draw into maxx c", and that means you have to ban all handtraps
Except if it wasn't for rmaxx c, you quite literally wouldn't need ash for ANY other interaction against the deck because no other draws that could impact you going second require ash blossom as a counteraction
What else do you need ash for? Fuwalos that you can't play? Droll? Effect Veiler? Another Ash? Ghost belle? Nibiru? Any of the dracotail names that have quick effects? What else do you need ash for?
Sounds to me like maxx c is the problem, but sure, go easy on with your hateboner i guess, we all need something to hate

>>550469483
>but it's a tier 1 deck
Am I supposed to think this is a bad thing though?
It plays quickly, it makes the coinflip/roach/droll non-factors in games, it doesn't put up ridiculous boards or floodgates. It could be a tier 0 deck and it would still be a positive addition to the game's health.

I don't understand what you fags even want when any time the game moves in a positive direction you start crying about it. You're just gonna bitch about whatever the best deck in the format is anyway so why would anyone take your opinions seriously?

I was assuming the worst case scenario: you didn't already have ash on your starting hand and topdecked it for your going second draw or something. Because if you already had it on your starting hand, ashing rahu dracotail already blows a hole in their turn 1 and greatly lowers their ceiling, potentially making it so that they set up 0~1 traps (none if the hand is all nonengine, which is common because the lists usually run 15 handtraps)
If you don't open your handtraps of course you're screwed, but that's all decks.

everyone else still needs to deal with them and dracotail players are also running those hand traps
all it means is that dracotail is immune to things that almost nothing else is, yet nobody can drop the cards from their deck because dracotail isn't the only deck that exists
how self centered does one need to be to think that just because your deck doesn't die to cards you don't like, suddenly the game is saved from those cards?

>Anything at all that decreases the amount of impact that those things have over the game is objectively a good thing
ignoring the fact that "those things" being bad is a personal opinion, one deck being immune to them does not decrease the amount of impact that they have
unless that deck is so oppressive that everything else has no other option except to drop them for other cards that will do something against said deck
the only response dracofags ever give to this is, "b-but they'll print more cards like dracotail in the future, so it's okay!" completely ignoring that we already know what we're getting 6 months from now and konami did not print more cards like dracotail
dracotail is the exception, not the new rule
is dracotail a "fair" deck that doesn't change anything and should be banned for being immune to everything
or is dracotail a broken deck that invalidates everything made before it and forced everyone else to swap hand traps for cards that actually affect it, meaning it should be banned for being broken

>>
>>550478720
>choose
No, because that's a completely false premise.
Dracotail IS stronger than what came before it and HAS warped the game around itself since it released.
It also shouldn't be hit at all, because what came before it was garbage (literally the closest the game has ever come to dying) and what the game has become since it released is fun.

A deck doesn't become unfair or unhealthy just because it's strong. I don't give a fuck how much better Dracotail is than everything else as long as it's gameplay isn't the shit that has plagued this game for so long now.
I mean would you seriously argue that something like Gimmick Puppet or Maliss is more "fair" and "honest" than DT just because it's worse? Those are exactly the kinds of strategies that deserve to be power crept out of existence and I'm glad you feel pain when you try to play them.
>>
>>550478720
I don't know if the game will move in this direction and old decks will get phased out eventually (or not). But I'd rather play a game where it isn't instantly fucking over if I don't have an uncontested maxx c or droll and lock on my starting hand to stop my opponent from going plus twenty to on their first turn off of a single card. And they should design decks with similar play patterns instead of "here's this chainslop of tutoring and special summoning more interactions into the field than cards you have in hand so you're essentially dead anyways".
But you're right in the sense that right now the deck pool contradicts itself on its design direction. Literally and unironically an eternal format issue.
The bottom line is that I think a game with more decks like dracotail would be more enjoyable, but right now it's the best deck in the game and you're right to be upset. I'm still as right to praise what I believe to be a good design and call decks that die to droll and lock or win the game badly designed (even if I like them, and I do like a lot of decks that die to droll and lock or win the game immediately)

The true underlying problem is never solved aka the dog design of cards to begin with.

Kashtira was unironically the best designed deck they made in ages and the only mistake they made was making the inherent summons too generic by not xyz locking.

you get the bundles if you want the cosmetics (which you should to be a true lab player)
but yes you can just throw gems into the Lab pack
>>
>>550487153
Playing against Kashtira can be so annoying but if you're not a 80 IQlet you attack into Kashtira before activating your monster effects, or accept the -2 cards from Fenrir and Unicorn and just curve stomp them.
Imagine they made Kashtira monsters cards that triggered by spell/trap cards activation.

>I mean would you seriously argue that something like Gimmick Puppet or Maliss is more "fair" and "honest" than DT just because it's worse? Those are exactly the kinds of strategies that deserve to be power crept out of existence and I'm glad you feel pain when you try to play them.
NTA. Like Dracotail is any better lmao. Maliss plays off the banished zone to be immune to anything the the other player can do, Dracotail sets 4 with one or two fusions and sets up the next turn just to be immune to what the opponent can do. And its gameplay not being cancer is complete bullshit. Setting 3 disruptions, drawing off them and then handtrap your opponent to death or summon a floodgate is not anything revolutionary or interesting. It will get hit, it will get phase out of the meta because Konami thankfully doesn't care about what you think is "fun" just like they did when they made paperfags cry by murdering VS. I hope you leave the game after btw you condescending retard.

Dispersion can also search Hollowcore instead of another Nephy to insulate against handtrap, but still weak to Nibiru because Hollowcore summon is your 5th summon

Though now that I wrote this down, BriFu send Nephy+Hrimnir immediately nets you 3 Fairies to search any continuous spell you want.

newfag here can I play my petslop in duelist cup or is it all tier 1 stuff?

that's why highlander decks are actually optimal
>>
>>550499802
Duelist Cup is both competitive and non-competitive. Up until level 16 it's impossible to rank down so even with an awful winrate you can rank up to that point and get like 90% of the gems. Also since everyone is thrown together there's a big mix of player skill+deck strength so you can go against a good player on a meta deck one game then immediately run into little Jimmy playing Dark Magician.
Also the event has been up long enough that most serious players have already finished climbing through Stage 1 so it's mostly not that bad.
Just play it and get the gems. As long as your deck is competently built and not like a deck from 12 years ago you should be fine.
>>
>>550499802
if your petslop can get above plat 5 in ranked then it can go max lvl in DC

>>
>>550502626
The average player is very, very bad at the game so it always sounds like more of a clusterfuck than it really is. Just give it time as you familiarize yourself with what modern decks do and remembering certain interactions. Watching people commentate duels while having a card database on hand to read things yourself at the same time helps immensely.
>>
is eldlich just stuntroonery or is it fun?
>>
>>550502758
The issue with Snake-Eye is not the end board, but that you couldn't reasonably handtrap the deck because it had so many starter extenders. To bring Oak back to 1, you would have to put Diabellstar to 1 and ban Zombie Vampire at the minimum.
>>
>>550503217
>To bring Oak back to 1, you would have to put Diabellstar to 1 and ban Zombie Vampire at the minimum
Fuck off lmao
>>
>>550502626
It's pretty commonly agreed upon that one of the game's biggest weaknesses is how hard it is to get into.
If you want to try anyway I'd suggest looking up a modern deck, and just learning that deck and then learning through experience. It's a somewhat frustrating process because you won't know what your opponent is doing or what you're doing right or wrong but there's no easy way unless you have a friend to coach you.
Also you have to accept that the modern game is totally different than it used to be.

>>
>>550503217
That was one of the main strengths of Snake Eyes, yeah but payoffs DO matter. Nobody would play the deck if it was just IP+Flamberge Turbo even if it plays through multiple hand traps with ease.

stun is the only way to make it even remotely competitive
you can also play it in a 60 cards grass slop pile but don't expect it to do much in it
the support was really mediocre, like wow you can make pizza eldlich turn 1, they really need to give it at least a normal summon that does something and more main deck names in general
>>
This may be a bit of a doompost, but I would rather not see what a Snake-Eye Mitsurugi deck with Oak would look like, especially when drawing xSneed is an instant bridge between the two engines thanks to the rank 4s.

It's really not that bad. The level 4s all follow the pattern of
>first effect their own attribute
>second effect their own attribute+the one that comes after in the pattern of Dark>Earth>Fire, or DEF.
Then the high levels are easy to remember because they're all Unique. Same deal for their first effects, but for their second effects Caesar needs all Attributes, Jiaolong needs double fire, and Borger needs everything but his own attribute.

The hard part is actually planning things out so you'll have the proper attributes by the time you need them, and weighing pros vs cons of using up a hand trap vs keeping it for the attribute.

You're also drawing 2 and discarding 1, that's better than your draw phase and you're getting it early for the low cost of 2 random level 4 dinguses. And we all know the first turn is the most important one in 99% of games.

Dugares is one of the most unoffensive but still worth using cards imaginable, but one day there will be a bullshit deck that foolishes some floodgate and then uses Dugares to revive it and it'll get banned and then people will crawl out of the woodwork to say "Oh yeah, it was obvious for YEARS that that broken piece of shit needed to be banned, I've been saying it all along.".

Yeah I also forgot droll since it searches a bit. It’s just crazy to me that only ONE deck is allowed to be immune to all. And deck that play under droll are cancer like Orcust and shit.

That's same for every pend deck, decks have zero room for tech or handtraps.

How do you modernize the pendulum mechanic though? The problem has always been you need to dump a ton of cards just to set up scales and extra deck to p summon just ONCE a turn. This makes their combos minimum 2 cards, makes them die to even minor interruption due to more failure points. Their generic support also kinda sucks? It's only electrumite, Beyond and exceed unless I missed something.
>>
>>550585910
Pend is pretty close to fusion in that its a baseline -2 that needs semi-specific monsters. If Konami wants it to be good then they just have to give them the same sort of busted shit fusion gets.
>>
>>550585910
They managed it with Rituals, there's really nothing unsalvageable in Yugioh you just give them busted cards until they get good.

>This makes their combos minimum 2 cards
I mean you can just give every Pend archetype a Monkeyboard
Still dies to Droll but that was always going to happen, that faggot should be banned anyway
>>
>>550585910
More one card combos like for any modern meta decks, and among those cards a card that searches two cards or makes you draw 2. Their turn 1 are already strong enough when you know how to bait your opponent's interruptions, which is pretty easy since most people don't know what you are doing exactly and only focus on scales and normal summons. Pend's real problem like for most decks is that you can't go second with them unless you perfectly know your deck, also Droll and Nib hard-counters them too hard.
>>
>>550587907
>also Droll and Nib hard-counters them too hard
make pend scales that are set themselves from the deck like a contact fusion without creating a chain and the pend scales have an effect that prevents opponent from activating cards in hand
pendulums saved
>>
some pendulum handtraps would go a long way
currently every piece of non-engine is borderline dead because you can't even use them as half an electrumite if you need to

I kinda liked those lists Trif played with Fiendsmith since you can just pend summon a Fuwa or something, make Moon and actually DO SOMETHING with the shitty non-pend monsters you're forced to play

Pend is the only mechanic that's basically still just doing its baseline. Every mechanic sucks if it don't somehow "cheat" what it originally did.
If you are serious about making a modern Pend deck you basically want something that can:
>Pend Summon from GY or banishment
>Pend summon from Deck
>Pend summon without pend scales
Any of these 3 at least.
>>
>>550592472
The recent thing is giving Pend Decks a 2nd Pend Summon
Which is only a necessity because you often NEED to Pend Summon just to get a 2nd body on field for the "obligatory archetypal Link-2 that does everything"
>>
>>550592826
Because most pend archetypes don't have a single monster than can special summon itself without jumping through multiple hoops. Konami made them super dependent on links and then never printed ways for them to get there.

As someone who just got into yugioh over 4 months ago, in the sense of trying to actually study the "modern yugioh" to the point that I can play a deck, its not as scary as the crazy yugioh combos on youtube make it out to be. Like its part of the game, but memorizing combos isnt hard, you just need to practice. The hard part is the interactions and playing around handtraps. After looking up how to play a deck you like, I suggest you play in solo mode, then straight up go to ranked, because thats where you'll learn the most and make mistakes. Sometimes a deck might not suit you so find the one you think feels easy to play. And handtraps can win you a lot of games so really get to know what those are.
>>
>>550599026
It requires a different skillset. Just practice, lose, improve your game, think about it, watch others play.
Watch the meta weekly if you can becasue there's a lot of dracotail and really great players like abohmod will show how to make good use of the tools the deck offers.

My experience is that WF hands are really frustrating because of the spell discard gimmick. Too often you open cards that should be extenders but aren't because you have too many monsters.
Aside from the field spell, the new cards didn't really do much to help the issues the deck had, it just changed your already good enough endboards and encourages you to lay more bricky cards like Curse of Diabell.

>>
>>550611917
Yeah, it's weird because a lot of the new cards can be really good and then they can also feel like awful bricks.
Also in general the deck feels more linear than it used to. It used to be that if I had extra resources I had an easy time finding uses for them but now the levels and such never match up. That's probably just a personal issue though and I should just tinker with my ED more and cut some of the fun cards for stuff that comes up more often.

I've been tempted to just cut Azamina from my WF deck altogether so I can just run 3x Purge to shore up both my S/T count and my non-engine. Maybe even add back Toybox. The only annoying thing is it conflicts with Vengeance and Vengeance Dragon which are both very cool cards. I guess Nib would be scarier too.

You don't really need "Azamina" to deal with big towers because "St. Azamina" lets you turn every monster into a Mikanko.

>>550612503
I used to play with fiendslop and millennium for consistency (the rextremende and sprind variant so you ALWAYS have something to do with your turn). On realized boards there was always something to do with leftover material but the new version raises the ceiling and you can't afford running those packages anymore otherwise the whole thing is a mess.
When I play uninterrupted my endboard is usually saint azamina, moa regina, ilya silvya, both diabell and diabellstar and baronne. and I often pop up my own level 7 diabellstar using baronne because otherwise I run out of space.
In any case I'm not playing it anymore and switched to draco like a good goy because I was tired of getting obliterated by droll and lock. The support really couldn't save WF, it's an event deck now. Pretty sad.

It's funny how much the deck struggles for board space now. Half the time I'm looking at Ila Silvia on my endboard I'm thinking "wow, this card is so good... because it leaves the field".
Old endboards where you could consolidate more of your interruption in the backrow between like Reframing+Woes almost felt more secure than the new ones. The new ones are far cooler though.

konami is turning me into a pitfag I swear
why does not a single girl in this franchise have sleeves?
>>
why does my opponent do more during my turn than me?
>>
>>550617032
Why are you being so selfish that you're unwilling to share your turn?

WF is the only combo deck I find fun.
It’s also suprisingly good going second too if you draw 6 different engine cards.
>>
>>550615239
And that's the downside of running the new engine. Because it summons Dragoon without any normal monsters, he can't use its non-targeting removal effect to out St. Azamina.

i should really stop playing decks that die after 1 blossom

bros i'm thinking of buying the begginer packs to get 3k gems for like 24 dollars, should i do it
i want to finish my artmage deck...
>>
>>550622736
No.
The gem rates are beyond horrific unless you own an oil refinery.
>>
>>550622736
No. just do the duelist cup and save.
post gacha regret is real.
And you wont pull the artmage cards.

>24 dollars
>1 UR

>>550622736
If you don't pull the cards you'll feel incredibly retarded, and worse, even inclined to spend a little bit more to pull the rest.
Don't.
>>
>>550622945
>>550623086
okay, thank you bros, i will just keep farming solo mode and duel pass and wait, i already finished the duelist cup

Can't tell you how much joy I've felt after I started playing top tier meta deck. The feeling of not giving a shit after ash blossom AND imperm ? Yeah...

Mitsu btw.
>>
>>550623461
I'm glad me falling for the trap once prevented someone else from doing so.
Yes I do regret it. That's why I'm explicit about it.
>>
>>550622736
I bought the 2k gems first time bundle and hit 6 URs, all of which I needed, AND dia alt art
Always gamble

Honestly a few weeks ago I would have given an arm and leg to play more MD but currently, the game sparks as much interest as a nagging GF.
I only log in to do dailies and then fuck off, like I could care less of fuck.

Mostly Mitsurugi FS
Kashtira if I don't want to be a combo andy.

I'm so fucking pumped for K9, can't explain. Discovered Mitsu 2 weeks ago and how fun it is. I guess you just need to get something that align with your taste (visual and gameplay).

>>550626040
I also run clockwork Night, D-Fissure and Macro Cosmo in my Kashtira deck, perfect counters to my main deck.
Watcha gone do, cry about it?

>>550626773
Mistrugi is a nice engine which can grind against Sky striker and other decks with grind game and gas.
It's fun at the beginning but can become stale because you start to know all the match-ups.

Why isn’t this faggot banned already? At least be accurate in your shitpost.

I don't get what you mean. You mean game become boring because you play mitsu too well and know what to do against other deck and you prefer to learn something new ?

So you want to learn something new most of the time, got it.

I'm the kind of guy who love to play the same deck, too bad ygo don't let top tier deck very strong for a long time, and playing anything but top tier is just pure torture. Mitsu just fit me perfectly, and K9 will raise that lifespan for another 6 months I guess before Habakiri get inevitably banned or smth.

look at the bright side, now you can craft one that you want

Wait until stage 2 starts and then you won't be allowed to play against anyone competent.
>>
>>550629901
I wonder how people do stage 2. I maxed level no problem but stage 2 is a legit human rights violation due to how it works.

Why does chronoclasm even have a pendulum effect when there is no way in archetype to make it go to the spell or trap zone AS pendulum card?
At least the expensive fusion goes to pend zone on destroy
>>
>>550634317
Same reason they gave them an awful spot removal trap with no way to search it. They just kind of gave up on the archetype 90% of the way through making it.

Riot Games
You can unlock everything except cosmetics by playing the game.
It doesn't matter if you play a shit champion for 225 BE or 2400 BE as long as you're skilled.

Meanwhile Konami caps you to a 145 gems a day, you get nothing if you lose or lost the HT mini game. And the most amount of gems you can get per match is 15 gems, if you get any.
And you can only have 10k free Gems at most.
Not to speak that you don't get a guaranteed UR's from a 10 pack pull.

In LoL you can have a rooster of different champions even as a beginner, meanwhile in MD you have to hope this months festival is not shit and that you don't get matched against people that played the game from the start and have the latest meta deck.
The fact that people have to go to unofficial simulators to TRY OUT different decks that they don't own in MD just shows you how consumer unfriendly MD.
No practice tool such as custom hands in solo mode or trying out cards you don't own, no alternative formats.
>>
>>550636290
You put way too much effort into this bait when you gave it away in the first line.
>>
>>550634842
honestly it feels like everything is tied to simply not having enough monsters and relying on beyond the copium to reliably pend summon at all
>>
after getting to 1 win to dlv 17 for at least 5 times, i finally got it
the journey was very gay
>>
>>550631245
What are you getting paid to play?
>>
>>550637030
Either pay me in fun or gems.
>>
>>550636408
damn, it would actually have been pretty funny if he worded it like he was describing this nameless super awesome game, and then at the very end revealed he was talking about league. wasted opportunity.
