Uncle Trif is going ham on the absolute state of this piece of shit game right NOW#PiratedAdd
oh look 2 more cards that won't get their overframe because MD devs are morons
tearlaments found dead in an alley after being raped by funny dark rabbit
>>579432081Tearlist
>use called by to dodge a hand trapEvil bad Yugioh, going first winmore bullshit>use Fallen and the Virtuous to dodge a hand trap, get a second copy for interruption, and get followup board breakingWholesome chungus good Yugioh, healthy interactive gameplayWhy is this?
Took Konami long enough.
>>579432445FnV is a new card, cattle.Now buy gems!
>>579432362see >>579432452
>>579432580That doesn't explain the difference between players' who just parrot youtubers opinions.
>>579432081>clown clan has cards for every monster frame typei know what im building next
>>579432605save the seethe for when he's actually in the game sis
>>579432336>never used useless bitchWho care.
amritara's effect coming in clutch to unclog my middle zone and secure lethal damageand that's why called by should stay, you either ban the other 2 pieces of shit that have been discussed ad nauseam with it or you leave it alone
>>579432471Their gonna give this deck so many ur's and double dip on RDA players again when they release their overframes
>>579432035Is it really?Which decks are easy to play while being as good or better?SS always seemed simple to me because there's nothing to memorize, it's just reactive play, you can't fuck up the combo since there isn't one
>>579433538Ok? You're not a latefag or a paypig right? So it's not an issue.
>>579433020What the hell is his problem?
>>579433405>shitty called negating the only duel saverdisgusting
>>579433559That's what makes it take so much more effort. On most decks you're just aiming to hit a point where you can autopilot through your combo, while considering how to play around what he has in hand. Sure, Striker may be easier to pick up and take into a game with zero practice since you don't have to sit there and memorize combos, but that means you never have the luxury of just getting to the combo to win.
At least Tear mirrors were fun. There is nothing fun about current formats, or the last few formats, for that matter.
>>579433538Aside from Vice Dragon at UR nothing else is more then a one off except the stuff you can get in the structure deck
>>579432445Fv only dodges shit like imperm or veilerCalled by hits far more handtraps and the mulcharmies and is more common in the decks the want to put up 8 negate turn one boards instead of the decks like the wholesome sky striker or branded so it got shot
>>579433857dude went first, his fault for loading up on bricks and playing a garbage deck that folds to one ash because he just wants to sack people with macro cosmoshe didn't deserve to be "saved", and he already had an actual skillful way to save himself: nibiru, but he timed it like shit (my mistake for making diabel and not crystal wing too)
>>579434691Sorry, I've been told that if hand traps are going to exist they should ALWAYS work for some reason, and it's worth groaning about for 5 minutes whether it's Veiler or Maxx C getting stopped. Unless it's stopped with F&V which is epic and good gameplay because it only results in one player going minus instead of both players going equal.
>>579433928I get what you mean, I guess this is what people mean when they say it's a hard deck to pilotIt's true that whenever I play SS it feels easy but at the same time it's constant second guessing "should I use linkage now" "should I use zero to search or am I gonna need the removal next turn" etcI'd like to learn something else, but I'm not sure what I should look into
>>579433405>white forest elfnote slopbrave and stunning xister
>Clowns' gameplan is to draw a lot of cards and hopefully hit Vanity or black orb to tribute summon So likeAre they basically just statue/pachy stun, but they combo off first and also dig for handtraps?How bad are their turns? Do I get to see the floodgate and see if I have the out in 10 seconds like with Man at least? Or are they going to waste a ton of time summoning and tributing half their ED to get their draw effects?
>>579433405on one hand this is a pathetic thing to record and reupload, on the other there was no reason for this guy to hold shifter till your turn, but i guess that's how it goes in gold
I swear there's no point playing sky striker anymore now that kewl tune isn't that popular.Any negate slop deck that summons 5 monsters for their endboard is better.
>>579435749>Do I get to see the floodgateno it happens during your turnalso clowns finish their turn really fast (if we dont count slop engines you can pair them with)
>>579433954>At least Tear mirrors were fun.They really weren't, it was basically just "who made dweller first"Similar to dracotail mirrors are just "who makes secreton first"
>>579435749Most people especially in OCG play it without those normal summon floodgates. I'm sure you'll still see people use them in MD, but you don't have to play it that way.
>>579435821I play SS because it was decent 5 years ago and it'll still be decent 5 years from now
>>579435749Their ed snychro, xyz and fusion cards bounces everything on the field of their summon mechanic and can cheat these cards out.They're usually paired with Mitsu for big raigeki and negate.
They're unbanning tearlament cards but they aren't killing ishizu shufflers?
How long is pure KT gonna stay good? Now that the banlist has dropped is it a safe investment?
>>579436839Dead next list bro. TRUST
>>579436839You got 40 days before it gets hit, but it won't be enough to kill the deck.KT is better designed than Maliss, now think how long it took for them to "kill" the deck (LMAO AHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA)
>>579436716Shufflers always were the most honest part of the ishizu cards, if they didn't exist nobody would bother jerking off the tear mirrors
>>579437180>won't be enough to killMeaning what, t3/rogue?>KT is better designed than MalissOn what level?Will it go the same route (keeping the core KT engine, the rest of the deck becoming generic synchro slop to maximize consistency)?
When are they adding genesys?
I'm out. See you guys when, if, they ever ban the real problem cards.
>>579436839>Now that the banlist has droppedThey always do a small banlist post-worlds that they were already planning to do, then another bigger one a week or two after once they've had time to think about what happened during worlds. KT hits very soon are not unlikely.
>>579437613Doesn't genesys have different points values between the OCG and the TCG? Are they really gonna start juggling 3 fucking genesys lists?
>>579436839tick tock Rotary, you won't live long enough to see your own synchro card.
>>579437946My brother in christ, there are only real problem cards on the horizon.
>>579437613same day actual competent people from the TCG take over
>>579437582>won't be enough to kill>Meaning what, t3/rogue?Yes>KT is better designed than Maliss>On what level?>Will it go the same route (keeping the core KT engine, the rest of the deck becoming generic synchro slop to maximize consistency)?Yes KT can use these cards as engine:Ghost Ogre & Snow RabbitAsh Blossom & Joyous SpringGhost Belle & Haunted MansionGhost Mourner & Moonlit ChillEarthbound Prisoner Stone SweeperDuelist GenesisSynchro OvertakeOver TuningSage with Eyes of BlueDeep-Eyes White Dragon, the Blue Abyss
>>579437613The problem with Genesys is MD's refund policy. The format has frequent big changes in point values so they'd either need to constantly hand out refunds which they wouldn't want to do, or far more likely, they just wouldn't hand out refunds for point changes and you'd be stuck with a ton of URs that are worthless every couple months.Genesys events sound more likely than a permanent game mode.
>>579437613>konami>adding anything to do in this game besides ranked
>>579438207Yeah but since genesys doesn't ban things out entirely (just makes them unfeasible to use) and the cards are still legal in the regular game, do they really have to refund things?Like, I could argue "hey I've never played genesys but I randomly had a UR that you increased by 1 point, gib refund plz" to abuse the system anyway.
Tearkash at any number is more impactful than Havnis at 3
>>579437946You aren't going anywhere
>>579438921Havnis at 3 does give me something to do T0 in shaddoll so I'll take it.
>>579438179Oh I forgot ROTACynet Mining(tho it's a shitty searcher)Red Nova
>>579432471Is the deck good?
>>579433020Darkly big rabbit.
>>579438179>>579439206What's the difference with Maliss' usage of cyberse slop? How is KT better designed? I'm assuming by better designed you mean relatively immune to powercreep/highly adaptable
>>579436839Is rotary or b2b the problem child? Prior to the wave two support, this deck did fucking nothing unless you count genesys tops.
>>579433841*sigh* guess I'll have sex with the funny cat
>>579433020if they limit him does toon do anything?
>>579439812>situational turn 2/3 ED cardvs>searcher+extender that makes the best card in your extra deck trivial to summon, and gives you perfect information in your extremely toolboxy deck that already got to decide the opponent's topdeck every turn in the first placewow I fucking wonder
>>579439793KT lets you synchro from hand in archetype, Maliss doesn't have that ability, it needs other Cyberse to do that, but if you draw any of these Cyberse cards and no Maliss names, you're playing Code Talker not Maliss.JJ "Kewl Tune" let's you bridge any Tuner (HT) into KT, Maliss can't bridge HTs into Engine, except with a very convoluted combo.I know it doesn't seems that way but JJ "Kewl Tune" is one of the most important cards in the archetype, because it lets you effortless bridge into engine.Also the additional NS is something Maliss would kill for, because they're much more vulnerable to getting their NS popped in a simplified game state.
>>579432445you lose a body if you f&v yourself which does matter and if f&v didn't exist i'd be playing book of eclipse in branded like i did before to dodge targeted negation
>>579440028Yes it does the same thing since its incredibly consistent
>>579440561Is KT the most consistent archetype right now?
how are toons going first? I have a curse with the coin toss
>>579441313Yes it was and has been so far, BUT you can brick with every deck, no matter how many starters you play.
>>579438719>since genesys doesn't ban things out entirely (just makes them unfeasible to use) and the cards are still legal in the regular game, do they really have to refund things?That's the problem. One format has Illusion Gate as an unpointed must-play staple at 3-of, so you craft 3x of the UR, next points list puts it at 10 points and you cut it from your deck. That's fine in regular MD because you get your refund. In Genesys MD you've now sunk 90 UR points in order to be able to compete, that now is wasted.
>>579441423Current toons are unplayable regardless of the coin toss. In a few months when they get their new cards they'll be the best deck in the game. None of the current Toon URs get used so don't waste gems thinking you're getting ready for their new stuff.
>>579443046You can use Toon DM to make DMODBut only if you play a Kashtira engine
>>579443162Using Toon DM in Kashtira over a better card like Apprentice DMG is not playing a Toon deck.
There are zero people who think elfnote is good for the game

I ripped a couple Yummy alt arts a couple days ago, and on looking up lvl 1s, they have actually some pretty decent for fun decks you can make out of themApart from the obvious snake eyes, you can pair yummy with morphtronics or purrely, I didn't play while purrely was running around everywhere so it seems fun to tryHonorable mention to yummy mimighoul who's entire strategy seems to revolve around trying to play stun but with lvl 1 flip mons
Regulus rapes Maid Verre
>>579450550Meanwhile Verre rapes AleisterSo going by the rock-paper-scissors here, Aleister rapes Regulus
>>579450319It’s not especially good, but you can also do yummy lyrilusc.
>>579450319yummy meklord with shien's spy so you can suck up your own yummy synchros.
>>579450319I'm actually playing Yummy Purrely right now funnily enough. The opening hands are so cute it takes the edge off losing the coin toss. I'm tempted to try and pull for an alt art but I don't exactly need it. And I only got 700 gems kicking around.Yummy is a really fun deck, herald aside it's fun to have a deck where the majority of their interaction is built into the main deck monsters. I've never felt more miserable to be fuwa'd though. You can end up losing on both turns because the yummy half board will just play into their second fuwa even harder.
>1 minute event>Opp plays pic related, pure engineslop including a solitaire engine>Loses on time on turn 3 with 3 different engine continous spells, one facedown and a negated S:P summonWhat was the thought process here?
>>579451815The opponent is supposed to quit at the sight of any of those cards
>>579451815>running 5 K9 xyzThat's a K9 deck bro.
>>579452860Looks like pure Red-Eyes to me.
>>579452927>2 red-eyes cards vs 16 K9 cardsMan, you're being pedantic at this point.Though I suppose calling it kashtira K9 is probably more accurate.
>>579451815>Azamina but no DMOD packageWeird. I don’t even remember the last time I saw a Zeus actually get summoned.
>>579453153No, I think it's just Pure Red-Eyes with some small supplementary engines.
>>579451815>What was the thought process here?"I'm done with my dailies"
>>579453231Half the reason I'm running Zeus these days is for Enneacraft.
>haven't played in weeks>find out called by is bannedDo they just want this game to be unplayable
>>579453379zooabuser?
>>579453706and the funniest part is everywhere else is a warzone between players who think this is stupid, and players who think everyone else is stupid for thinking this is a bad thing
>>579453379if you're gonna play ennea, play ennea
>>579453706It benefits going first way more than going second. So it can go away, who cares
>>579454126Reading comprehension anon...
>>579454042I just mean in decks in general. I don't use Zoo in anything. Having an option that can fully clear an Enneacraft board that doesn't play into their anti-destruction or anti-targeting guys makes things a lot easier. Enneacraft puts up an annoying puzzle of a board as well as often runs cards like DiFi so just having a simple gameplan of make Zeus then combo in MP2 makes the matchup a lot simpler.
>>579454276I'm so tried of this reddit tier response.
>>579454116I haven't seen a single good reason to have it banned. A common one I hear is that outside of stopping maxx c, droll, and shifter, it just provides toxic gameplay on it's own. I think no one would care if called by was banned if those three cards didn't exist, so it's weird for a decision that gets rid of called by first BEFORE dealing with those three can be praised. Then I hear that top tier decks can already ignore things like droll, so called by is just a cancer card in those cases, but this is only ever spouted by the most disgusting dracotail branded joshua nigger orbiters.
>>579454638And it's the truth faggot
>>579455413>t.redditor
>>579455224>I think no one would care if called by was banned if those three cards didn't exist, so it's weird for a decision that gets rid of called by first BEFORE dealing with those three can be praised.I think this is my thoughts on the matter, and I would've seen it as a good thing if they nuked all four at once...but they wouldn't give that much UR dust to people at the same time, so it was never going to happen that waypersonally on the sliding scale of 'bullshit game ender cards', Called By is pretty low on the list compared to things that people have just accepted are never going away for some reason
>>579455493Continue using ad-hominems instead of providing arguments
So whats the next mid-range deck. I've been using VSk9 and I think it's time to move on
>>579455830rolad
>>579455830Midrange decks don't exist because people don't like that term even though we can easily see a difference in the decks its used to described and other decks so there will be no more midrange decks. Sorry.
>>579436306I was just complaining because it's nearly impossible to go on win streaks with sky striker when you are tired or sleep deprived.We need a new "dumb" deck like primite blue-eyes used to be.Rolad could be that deck that helps desperate people rank up at the last minute.
>>579456354Literally just play man
>>579454364Then you use the phrase 'because of', not for
>>579457483ESL. For means "for dealing with" in that context.
>>579457879Yes that's what I just said
>>579432081not that i don't appreciate getting this many URs, but all i want is another windabtw should i keep that third engraver?
>>579458313How can you lie this brazenly when what you said is right on screen for everyone to see?
>>579457879Nope. It could be, it could also be because you're using the deck
>>579458328I want to punch winda's sexy tummy
>>579458442Why would you think that Zeus is integral to Enneacraft's gameplan?
I've got 2 ideas that will guaranteed fix yugioh>1. there is no going first or second anymore, both players start at the same time, the sequence of phases is still linear but anyone can shift into battle phase whenever they want>2. if you maintain a +75% going second rate for 6 months konami sends you a robot wife. she is actively connected to your md account and if you drop below 75% at any point she immediately gets sent back to japan (she has jets in her feet like astroboy)
>>579460080shut up bitch.
>>579460080Rookie and Bronze would be nothing but good players playing shit like Gemknight OTK to fulfill the second condition and scooping when made to go first.
>>579460080I just want to expand on point 2 a bit just so you guys really understand the dynamic here. Tryhards can still always go first but there will forever be a silent, psychological understanding between both opponents that the one who goes first is a virgin. Say you're going up against full powered elfnotes in a few months and they're going first and setting up their board and looking at your hand. Good for them they won the duel or whatever. You could be spending that entire duel getting your dick sucked by your robot gf / wife. Of course you would get accessories like profile pictures and a mate just so your opponent knows for sure.
>>579460080>if you maintain a +75% going second rate for 6 months konami sends you a robot wifeDeck for this feel?
New hires at Konami should be required to say whether this card should be banned. Wrong answer and you're fired.
>>579460080The first idea would be ruined by Tenpai.
>>579464832the first idea would be ruined by the fact it makes zero fucking sense
>>579464971Just play your cards, bro. It's not complicated.
>>579464357clearly no or the old heads would have done it
>tfw i already have the little knight, egyptian gods and both masquerena altswhat are you boys crafting with your ticket? im lost on what to do with mine
>>579465796bold of you to assume I remember all the alt arts.they even have that ticket page where you can see all of them but you're not allowed to access it if you don't currently have a ticket.
>>579465796I never got the altGame didn't want me to have it
Could the exchange ticket be the only way to get the second copy of the starter deck kaiba 2002 blue-eyes art?
>>579465796probably a second ash or somethingthen I just wait for them to inevitably semi it like the OCG did
>>579466927semi ain't gib no alt-art ticket, no?the whole apo debacle orginator never mattress until she got banned
What's a deck to play that's fun and fair and interactive?
>>579468460>fairDoesn't exist.
>dis pater protectorth-thanks
>>579468460Exosisters
>>579469612How about one that's actually good?
>>579468460Assuming something fairly recent?Pure FT, no extra Magistus/DT slopped in for higher ceiling, is probably still tier 3~4ish and relatively fair>short combo>severely hurt by removal handtraps on the normal or breakers like spoly/golem, no backrow omni or counter trap to fall back on, but can maybe still play to survive>only one reliable omni, field negate can be negated by F&V/MST>the meme namechange into in-archetype elemental burst is funny and not impossible to pull off, but also super slow and telegraphed compared to say Murakumo wipe>many interactions but they're jank like Luna's bounce or Sleeper's shittier Karmael/Yubel effect>but actually good in the grind game, not in the "I recycle resources for cost or draw 3 handtraps for no reason" way but in the "all my shitmons float to bodyblock and swarm you for beatdown" way
>>579470130Sexos are actually pretty good right now. I had a fairly easy climb with them to m1 this season.
Oh yeah, another thing about Yubel found in the game files (aside from the possible alt art, and the dark-fiend/super poly support): They fixed the effect highlighting on Yubel.They also updated the effect text of Sharvara, another card in Yubel. These were the only cards that had their effects updated.
newfag here.I have a called by alt art and i heard that if i dismantle it i can get another alt art of my choice. How does it work? if i click on dismantle right now it only says I get the UR gems. Or do i have to wait until the banlist goes live?
>>579460294It's suboptimal, but in the low tiers, you really can survive going first with Gem-Knights sometimes. Diamond Dispersion into Aquamarine and Lady Brilliant Diamond creates disruption opportunities on your board, and sometimes players just refuse to read. I've had a surprising number of times come up where the opponent's first play into my board is Lightning Storm or Raigeki, and then they just freeze up for a handful of seconds while they try to figure out why nothing died.
>>579471764wait until the banlist goes live
>>579471764It's not banned yet, but it will be. Wait until the ban list update is actually in place. Actually, just read your notifications. Then you'd already know when that's happening and what you're supposed to do if you want stuff for dismantling.
>>579470514> updated the effect text of Sharvarait didn't have the line breaks right?
how does evil eye work
>>579471831My go-to when forced to go first with Gem Knight OTK is summoning IP first then activating Diamond Dispersion so I can use IP to link off Aquamarine whenever I want, and also have Hollowcore's negate. It's not a great board but it's still 3-4 interruptions.But that doesn't matter in this scenario. All we need is a good going second winrate to get our roboGF, so we can lose 100% of the time going first and it doesn't matter. In fact we should be surrendering when going first so our opponent gets their roboGF and will be more likely to do the same for us in return.
Why do TCGfags froth in the mouth whenever they hear Omni-negate?
>>579472030Sharavara's highlighting/line breaks were always correct.They just did minor changes, like removing "monsters" from "you cannot special summon monsters, except...", and removing "directly" from "set 1 'unchained' spell/trap directly from your deck".
>>579472638they cheat by sending their bullshit for cost from the deck and keep reviving and link summoning their shit then they have a towers that can negate or something
Do I build Fairy Tail + Trains + Predaplants, or save for RDA + Clowns...hmm...
>>579472654RoboGF Going second deck when?
>>579472654>Other players will do nice things for us in returnNot on their life, bud. I don't enjoy saying this, but this is a real Dogmatika-eat-Dogmatika platform.
>>579472638You have a ton of 1 card combos that get you to Serziel with Selene equipped which gives a quick effect pop, and he has target+destruction protection. Then you can quick effect link with Basiltrice into Zerziel and equip him to do the same thing again. Also you get material for whatever rank 3 you want. If you draw another starter you can also get up one of the traps.Hopefully you don't burn yourself to death.
So... we're calling them the clown crew clan, right? Or simply the clan for short.
>>579464357it stops raye-chan's deck so yes
>>579472881In a meta where everyone is just looking for a robogf that can change.
>>579464357Altogether, this is not a very strong card. It was especially not good when it was printed, but it's still not that impressive these days. At best, it's just a layer of control that only holds up with a sufficiently large amount of other control that could protect it, and it still won't find much value against some decks.
>>579473119TRUE. Imperial Order is kinda ass and should just be unbanned plus given easier ways to search it.
>overframe but not the rest of supportFor what fucking reason? We have whole junk ingame already.
>>579473262Imperial Order is a different matter. Monster cards are generally more vulnerable to being removed from the field than trap cards are.
>>579473398Realistically, any modern deck that's summoning Spell Canceller is doing it as part of a combo that puts up enough other interruptions that it can easily protect the Spell Canceller from outs so that doesn't really matter. This doesn't matter a ton because Spell Canceller combos are more of a TCG thing than something that'll likely be popular in MD, and Canceller also can be a big fat brick unlike IO, but also neither of those facts are much comfort when your opponent does manage to combo into it turn 1 against you.
>>579473364>rest of support>We have whole junkAre you Indian?
>>579473364What the hell are you talking about?
>>579473364There might be more cards in the pack than the 5 that were announced.
>>579464357nobody gave a shit about this card five years ago because not every deck spammed quick spell band-aid cards.
>>579473119>>579474084Note that neither of them considered whether it's fun.
>>579474084Spells being important for decks is nothing new. More spells being made quickplay is probably a reaction to setting from deck being more common, and Thrust existing to search any normal spell.
In a slower game, you can bide your time to draw into the out for a floodgate.But this is not the game we have.Floodgates should not exist in a fast, otk/negate board-based game.
I don't even know what I want from alt art exchange. I guess third ash or diabel. Everything else kinda involves playing those decks. Could pick up Invoked maybe
>>579474518Sorry sis. Now that Called is gone Difi is mandatory in any deck that doesn't auto lose to it as an answer to droll,veiler, f&v, etc.
>>579475837Get Winda since she's the next most likely to get banned at some point.
>>579476024Winda will likely be ignored because she's not popular enough, but Ash has been hit to 2 in OCG, and Called By being banned makes that seem more likely here. Also if it's not hit then he keeps 3 Ash. Win-win.
let's play "guess what deck they played with just their name"
>>579468460Unironically magistus fairy tail.
>>579472810ok so they are world tournament material?
>>579468460Weather Painters
oops, looks like you lost the widow anchor coin toss!
I'm jealous of that man for having a royal finish Widow Anchor. It's so cool.
>>579478117No because they're largely a "defend the castle" deck in a game that has powercrept "defend the castle" playstyle pretty hard
>wanted Witchcrafter support>they double down on it being a lore deckIs it supposed to optimally run as some globohomo patch quilt with Magister and Fairy Tail and all their UR nowI already pulled 3 Regulus and it looks like this guy's the reason to mix everything together
>>579479201Kill yourself enemanigger, you will find no sympathy here for your shit ass floodgate deck that takes fucking forever
>>579479668Witchcrafters have 9 unreleased support cards that enable you to play them without that spellcaster slop. Look at OCG lists. They're at most just running like DMoD, and a bit over 50% are running 3x Spenta+1x Crowley.
>>579479201Long live enneaKING, you bodied that freak
Why do people run a full FS sloppa to make ceaser when all you need is 1 engraver, moon, requiem and necoquip?
>>579479201what coin tosshe can't even use widow anchor anyway
>>579480651You can even do it in tcg/if moon gets banned with that level 5 light fiend synchro
>>579480651Because they value the followup, and ability to use fiendsmith starters instead of just wanting to make an interruption off a link 2 that requires a brick. Elfnote runs the minimal package because all it cares about is endboard strength, it'll never get into a grind game.
>>579479201Tranny got blown out lmao
>>579480804And even if he could've and cared about keeping the anchor he could've chained it. He was just giving up because the game was clearly unwinnable at that point.
>>579480395I sure did! thank you for your supporthappy dueling. fuck skystrikers!>>579480804the handrip is random, he had 2 cards in his hand so it was a 50% chance it would take what he just searched for. he could have used anchor, there are no monsters in his main zone
>>579480834You get ceaser, engravers removal and if you play level 4 darks you can make chaos angel as well with just a single card commitment in the main deck.Very useful in lunalight, gives you a play under droll too
>>579480967Read what Pixea does.
>>579480967bro hasn't even read his own cards
>>579481376that's how most of you meta slave players are desu
>this is the level of player who seethes over Sky Strikerslmao
>>579480186No Fairy Tail stuff at least, but there's still Magistus slop in there yeahRegulus isn't there used here either as another insult to the injury of me pulling a playset of this shit
>>579481280whoops. yes, you're right
The tryout duel should be permanent
Like pottery.
>>579481752Magistus slop is in half of the lists. Just be the half of players who choose not to include it if you don't want to include it.
>you are going FIRST>realize it's striker>negate 3 of its spells and banish one in the GY with SP>ROTA for Raye>Droll>CalledBanning called is the right call just due to turn 1 but you can't tell me it's not a massive hit to going 2nd decks. Droll and Ash, way more than Roach, murders these decks, board breakers have almost no way of interacting with cards in the hand.
>>579481576wtf I said desu not desu
>called banned>dweller bannedJesus christ this ladder is about to be 98% tearniggers again
>>579482726Shifter and Fissure isn't banned
>>579482561It's net positive for SS though since now it's harder to banish Raye.
How are Clowns gonna be? I'm sitting on a good amount of dust so I can build that or just put resources into some other rogue deck like Unchained
>>579482854D Shifter should be banned by the way.
>>579482726Back then tear couldn't deal with any tower like monster, avramax made with I:p hard mogged those whores. Even empen made them kneelThey have FS now but I doubt they can out a liger
>>579440561>Also the additional NS is something Maliss would kill for,Rotary is a Cyberse monster and can be used in the Maliss Cyberse pile
>>579483014Drag every card with the word "dimension" on it out back and full ban.
>>579483391>with the word "dimension"dimensional fissure bros we're safe

>>579465796House Dragonmaid or Lady LabIf I had a soul and if it were slightly more usable then maybe a second copy of alt Silfer
What do I even slot in with tear?
>>579484032They always explicitly says again and again that "no, you aren't allow to exchange for any card we think are too new".
>>579483696>The word "dimension" exists within "dimensional"To the wood chipper with you.
>>579484589thats so gay
>>579483024Underworld Goddess you gorilla nigger. Also you can out Liger with PEP.
>>579450319Yummy is incredibly good for splashing it into other decks. Incredibly fun too.
>>579482961instantly folds to drollmost obvious negate target of all timebut you manage to go through your combo you are basically +12 on your opponent
>dispater sleeves coolcan't find the maid dispater image
>>579455224The real reason is Konami's way to solve the "Go First and win" dilemma is by purposely needing ways to interact with handtraps in hopes of balancing things.>I think no one would care if called by was banned if those three cards didn't existIt's the other way around, anon. Konami is perfectly happy with those cards existing.
>>579485092Holy fucking SEXAlso DC in October
>>579483716damn, I dusted my alt art long ago because I was desperate for CPI want more undustable staples though and I didn't have a glossy or royal so I didn't find it too bad to saveI wish I could just make my royal CBTGs undustable so I don't have to save them manually from the auto duster
>>579456164The term midrange to describe decks wasn't a thing 5 years ago. It's probably (((retards))) who migrated into the game and used other games' terminology
>>579485092holy...
>>579460080You are the most retarded negro in this thread
>>579485328We should rename it to "DecksThatAreSomewhereInTheMiddleOfTheRangeBetweenControlAndComboDecks" so there's less confusion.
>>579472654Post deck, anon. I play Gem-Kngihts but my ED is pretty tight.>I'm made to go firstI scoop
I want to fuck Verre
>>579485475If your deck combos, it's a combo. If your deck plays the grind game/wins by creating a lot of advantage it's control, simple as.>B-but what if the deck wants advantage yet combos??It's still a combo deck
>>579467228Yeah, it has to be banned
>>579455224Called simply doesn't have enough restrictions going first, stopping roach, droll is a legitimate use case but that also applies going second.I don't think a OPT is necessary to balance it, but the Murakumo drawback would balance it out immensely.
>>579484032There isn't an alt art super poly thoughever
>>579465796Probably thighs Ecclesia. I suck at Branded but it's kinda fun learning new decks and i like that she wants to hug me.
>>579466784No, you can't get those one-of-a-kind alt arts.
>>579432081>clown clan whitefaceshould've left the name as is
What cards are clown crews paired with? i'm seeing they only have two main deck monsters
>>579485282>Also DC in October
>>579485282I thought the DC is in September
>>579486421mitsurugi
>>579486547Not possible with Worlds this late.
no clussy in Clown Crews is a dealbreaker for me.
>>579486421any ritual deck since they're literally tribute fodder and a bunch of tributable floodgates
>>579455224Pretty easy.You drew it going first? Now you can invalidate 1 of their handtrap, or set it and banish whatever your opponent wanted to do on their turn.You drew it going second? You can't use it when your opponent is comboing their ass off and when it's your turn the only thing you're most likely using it will be on their Ash trying to negate your search, which will be negated by one of their Omni on board.Simply put, it does everything going first and nothing going second because of how oppressive decks are in modern ygo if you let them go first.
>>579485795>>579486963Is it a good decision to ban it before Maxx c, droll, or shifter?
>>579486828Here it is.
>new season start>go first, opp has maxx c and fuwalos in hand>go second, can't play the game
>>579487197Ideally all of them (yes, Ash and her friends included) need to be reworked to have restrictions, but it is what it is.Called By is significantly stronger when going first, and losing it means (hopefully) the WR for going second should increase even for a tiny bit.
>>579487342EW
>>579487395Going second will get even better on the 3rd because Maxx C will resolve 100% no matter who threw it.

>>579451557>The opening hands are so erotic it takes the edge off losing the coin toss.yeah, playing while being hard feels great
It’s honestly embarrassing how Josh thinks his video influenced KONAMI.
>>579488141they legit think they're Mr.GX. i can feel them shouting their combo lines in an anime voice
>>579488264that was another good thing about 60 second duels. I didn't see a single hero deck. now I'm back in ranked and 5 duels later here they are
>>579445235Bro...Raye is 14...
>>579487583Just admit you're gay. A card like this should repulse you.
>>579488492pretty sure she placed higher than that at worlds
>>579488141it is brown larpHEROfags also think of themselves as scrappy underdogs trying to overcome toxic meta decks
>>579488548>HEROfags also think of themselves as scrappy underdogs trying to overcome toxic meta decksLike a rogue deck should?
>tl;drcan I get a qrd
>>579488612He's taking the Dzeeff route and after having a strong career is going to focus more on "content" over serious content. and side formats. until he feels advanced is less shit
>>579488602HERO might not be meta but if they go first they do toxic shit, thinking they are above Elfnote fags because they fill their deck with bricks is the epitome of brown hypocrisy
>>579488691Oh so he's semi-retiring from competitive, gotcha.I can't say I blame him too much, there isn't much hope on the horizon and even the current cardpool is bullshit>mfw go second vs MAN>use my 1 disruption>it pivots into Orcust
>>579488504exceed the pendulum is sexy tho
>>579485795Back when Solemn was banned during the Pendulum format we used a card called Magic Drain as the replacement. Since Pends are monsters in the hand, if Qliphort activated Scout you would negate it and they couldn't stop it. If they did stop it they handlooped themselves.
Is it really that bad for going first to be too powerful? The coin toss is fair, and even someone like me can beat a world champion if I get to go first. That’s the beauty of card games.
Genuinely if you play that faggot cunt deck enemashart I hope you have unending diarrhea forever Yes I will take fucking forever to choose one of your three faggot cards because it's turn fucking 8 and your dumb faggot brain can't end the duel but I'm stuck here because of your cunt dimensional fissure

>>579494478your six completely standalone full-combo engine pushes, sir?
What is the right course of action for a latelet, what should I prioritize if there's no deck I really want to build for now? Which bundles should I get and which packs should I wait for?If I reach the 10k gem limit should I just spend that on the challenger's pack, fields/protectors/mates or whatever?
im so sick of sky striker niggers dropping max c on my turn fucking kill yourselves tranny axe wound fucks
>>579495168SS is the fairest deck in existence; should I say, the standard by which fairness itself is assessed. Seethe less and git gud
>>579495129You spend 4k gems and slowly build up your wallet again until the end of the month watch they gone release next month Daily gems for the month are 4300 with out events
For me, I'm on "Pure K9", because it has the best balance of 'being "ok" powerwise', 'furfag imagery' and most importantly 'not too many clicks to play' that really suits me well.I tried K9 FurHire and dropped it because it was too many clicks, and it would still die to a single Ash.
>>579495254I'm at something like 7k right now, what are you saying I should spend 4k on>4300 with out eventsThat's implying I can get to master, right now most likely I'm not making it past plat
>>579495247kill yourself tranny day of the fucking droll soon
>>579495361based raye-chan making bad players endlessly seethe
>>579495129All the staple bundles are worth getting eventually, prioritise in order of what you actually needThe archetype ones are mainly for cosmeticsChallenger pack is decent value for newbiesFields etc are purely cosmetic
>>579495320No, doing dailies 145 x 30 are 4350 gems wirhout ranking up or doing events
>>579495468Even if I do get all the staples I still have to craft two of them separately which is a huge amount of UR, it's normal for it to take time I'm guessing?>>579495479Oh ok, thanks
>>579495580yeah that's why the challenger pack is ok if you're new and literally don't want to make anything in particular
How does the exchange ticket work? Can I change a glossy I own into a glossy of the alt art card?
>>579495129On top of the other advice, take a look at the structure decks. The newer ones need 2 copies at most which is 1k gems + a couple of UR Crafts for the full build outside of staples. Assuming you came within the last month or so you have 1 copy of either the cyber dragon, red dragon archfiend or utopia decks meaning you just need to spend 500 gems for another copy of the one you already have. I'm saying this so you have something decent to play in events if none of the loaners appeal to you. Events give you 3.1k gems if you complete them. You also have something decent to climb with up until platinum if you want more gems
>>579495129>>579495580I'm new too so I think I have a better perspective than these fags who think everyone has infinite SR. If you're brand new your goal is just getting 1 deck that you can play for the next few months at least. After that, you're golden unless you get really unfortunate with ban lists. Challengers collection is the current staples pack that is about to expire but there should be a new one in a few days. Beyond staples, no one can tell you what to buy because at the end of the day if you dont want to play the cards you dont want to play them so there is no point wasting resources on them.
>>579496084yes you get the exact same rarity. when you dismantle you pick an exchange ticket and not URs
>>579496607>when you dismantle you pick an exchange ticket and not URsNTA but is there like, a clip of someone doing this because i'm 95% sure i'm gonna fuck this up and accidentally picked cp like a dumbass
>think through my extremely funny branded lines like summon back murakumo>opponent quits
>>579496084For Apollousa when you dismantled you got a Exchange Ticket (Glossy) or Exchange Ticket (Royal) that gave you the same rarity.The exchange ticket from the raffle and bundle are just normal finish
>>579496748powerful*
>>579496725I don't know. Ask again in two days when everyone is dismantling to get a guide
>>579496087Yeah I bought one more of the Utopia deck, I'll just be using it to grind though so I don't really feel like wasting URs on in-archetype cards>>579496192I'm not sure of what to play because I don't know how everything plays, the game should allow you to try out decks at least even if you can't play them in ranks, just to get a feel for the various archetypesI don't like hyper complicated slop so I'm thinking of playing something with a small simple engine like Yummy, Mitsu, Striker, KT or waiting for ROLAD
>>579497497It should but you cant so your best bet is using edopro to test decks

Ways to fix the charmies:>unrespondable>if you did not shuffle back, draw until you have 6 cards in your hand
Before any niggers chimp out at >>579501175>if you drew, but did not shuffle back
BAN GAYE
>>579501175Neither of those are problems with the chummies thoThe problem is some decks completely ignore them, making them bad bricks, and you can't really use them to break boards, only autowin turn 1Roach is unironically less toxic because it can be used to break boards if drawn for turn, chummies are more akin to solemns and floodgates
>>579501473Bad nickname.Should instead be "Lesbaye">lesbian>sounds like bae>rhymes with raye

>>579505885>yearlyIt's been daily for years
I honestly don't get it, they're clearly spending a lot of money on promoting this game.Why make it so dogshit on purpose?
>>579506506Because you niggers keep paying up anyway.
If you rank up too many times in a 24 hour period the game bricks you on purpose
>>579506612Haven't spent a penny on this trash lol
never beating the not reading allegations
>>579506758>thisPaying up doesn't just mean on MD, dumbass.Paper, collecting, merch, all that.You niggers keep paying.
Lmao usually gatchashit tries to keep you hooked but yugioh actively does the most it can to make playing a miserable experience
>>579505885It's getting truly badEven HE is branching out it seems
have they not implemented an automatic retry properly or like at all?it feels like it fails pretty fuckin quick when it does
I bought the alt art packIs this good?
>>579508441Eh. It's not bad
>>579507957Retry for what?
>phara branded banishment>now i got another super poly copyEasy.
>>579508720connecting to a game
>>579508873Chain Shifter response?
>>579509661report your 4 times and block you. dumb fuck
Competitive players are like roaches.You ban their cards, they just go to the next best thing, like nothing happened.They need long term punishments.Your deck gets hit, even the generics, you HAVE TO keep playing it (padding up to 40 cards if needed) until the next season/iteration of a tournament (even if that tournament is yearly).You shat on people? You get shat on.They need misery.
is this an FKT deck? it got a 1810 last season
>>579512616floodgate and i think the burn isnt ftk but a turn 2 kill if your opponent tries to playjust be chink and win every coinflip
>>579512616its an exhaust everything your opponent has until you can urgent schedule deck
>>579505046>he lost to a 4 year old deck has it's main starters still on the limited list and hasn't got a 2nd engine nor support in the last 4 yearsLMAo losing to a deck that has 0 negates
>>579512996she fucks shotas
>>579510889Problem isn't competitive imo, it's Konami designing certain archetypes to be meta, instead of just making whatever and letting players decide what is meta.This problem has gotten worse since the anime stopped being made and Konami being forced to lower the game's power level every summon mechanic.
>first game of the season>lose coin flip>draw no handtraps out of 15>it's someone on Lab turboing out D BarrierDogshit fucking game
I'm on a budgetIs Dracotail Dragonmaid decent enough?
>>579518807If you can afford Dracotail to begin with, then you have the money to save more for a proper Dracotail deck.
>>579519140Draco tail isn't that expensive to build since it's in a secret pack, the full branded list is like another fifteen extra URsI'm sure the dragon maid version will be fine for a starter budget deck
What's the absolute cheapest meta deck to build? T3 or above
>>579520251Luna Lighthttps://www.masterduelmeta.com/top-decks/rating-duels/august-2026/lunalight/bige1293/Sso_1
>>579520251stun
>>579520616I'm building this if pp doesn't come out this month
>>579518807Honestly you're probably better off playing dracotail shaddoll.The problem with dracotail dragonmaid is that they both want to use the normal summon and dragonmaid cards are notoriously bricky.
>>579522050maybe i use this month to build MAN
>buy bundle>royal Caesar Valius, Rock, Jialongis this a sign
>>579518807yeah if youre a tranny
>>579518748Don't care.Metaniggers should be punished.
>>579522641YesIts a sign to dust all 3 and get yourself a playset of engage!
>go against Branded Dracotail>they are running 2+ Incredible Pussyis this normal
>>579522050pp?
>>579520616Is it gonna stay good?Any other options? Otherwise I'll build it
>>579525682Its going to "stay" good until they add gallant thief so until the end of the year, but by then you will have resources to do other things
>>579525682dies to droll, no other plan than >I make tower and win
>>579525847Doesn't everyone get fucked by Jiraiya anyway
>>579526039Mask of Restrict, pic related and some other stuff
>>579526376People are actually running restrict and fog king in the OCG?
>>579526515No but they should
>>579519140>>579522078>>579522829Right thenWhat about Despia Dracotail?
>>579526515no because elfnote plays through goemon anyways
I just downloaded the game again after seeing the Penguin Soldier in the duel pass. What's a decent cheap deck these days? I have a few lying around but none of them have been updated for 8 months or so and I'd grown to dislike most of them before I uninstalled.
>>579528108Branded if you pump a shit load of UR dust into it but it will be powercrept in 4 months.Mitsu is okayish and enough to reach master 5.

>>579530614Good ol' "I'm gone HT you to death"
>>579528108Memento will still clap dudes decently, that deck is mad scary and you encounter it rarely enough the lines are always catching folks
>>579530391why the fuck would you expect to regularly face top 100s if you aren't top 100 yourself
>>579530165They simply didn't get high enough rank, the breakpoint for the most amount of non meta decks you'll see is like m5 or m1Shitter netdeckers are in every tcg, so it's not a MD special thing

I'm looking forward to the new cydra support. can't wait to see what that turns in to.its the deck that got me into the game so I'm pretty hyped
>>579534461I think the new Future Fusion will be good for us but the monsters just seem kinda badthe new fusion is just a big guy that OTKs really hard and needs you to run a Limiter Removal, and the CyDra retrain doesn't change its name so it doesn't replace the OG
>>579534720yeah true, we already have a lot of starters for the OTK at least so we don't need *much* support. honestly I enjoy cydra so much until they Max C, Droll and Ash me and then I just can't play the game sadge
>>579534720new future fusion? which card is that?
>>579534720tbf I also started playing trains a bunch recently just because I love that they can play through a lot of counters and negates etc
>>579535013>>579535079like I said, I think this is a great card, and we'll probably play it in CyDra itself, but it also feels like a card that'll get more mileage in other machine decksthe new fusion lets you bin 3 Machines with over 2100 atk and even Eternity lets you bin just any two machine names along with an OG CyDra, already seen some crystron decks start to do this for the easy binning>>579535162I should really craft a Blue Traveler, I haven't gotten around to it but I hope it makes things more consistent
>here is your maxx c counter
>>579533148Is this true? I can make it to M1 with a fun rogue deck?Which non-t1/t2 decks have a high enough ceiling to be competitive when you're skilled enough at piloting them?
>>579535323I have the full earth machine deck crafted with the travellers etc, its so fun, if you havent gotten around to it, I would highly recommend it, if you need a deck list I can link you mine, its so much fun just stacking trains over and over.
the worst sky striker deck ever conceived
Event will be Synchro + Fusion Festival?Or Synchro Dice Rally?

Is Retaliating worth running over chums
nah didnt
nice board chink insect now sit here and watch my reveal my deck one card at a time
>>579537821adamancipator is a heavily chink coded deck
>>579537947Cave exploration is strictly the white man's calling...for better for worse kek
>>579533891>20 handtraps...what? FT Mag has relatively high engine requirements and multiple soft bricks, it runs the ash/droll/maxx suite, then has maybe six flex spots for charmies, veilers, belles or imperms. It's one of the deck's bigger weaknesses, alongwide not having access to any domini - what list are you looking at?
1 hour of yugioh has done more to make me racist than 10 years on /pol/

ran into 3 gimmick puppet subhumans today what the fuck
Seeing Raidraptors play floodgates is sad. You might as well just play meta solitaire slop at that point.
PSA if you're an odion nigger or lab troon or any other pagpag eating miscreant running 6+ dominus cards, don't use spark or impulse against magnets.it will not end well for you kek.
>>579539703Immediately queed up against another Tear player, these guys must be chomping at the bit and frothing at the mouth with the banlist reveal
>>579540379>don't use impulse against magnets.why not?

Hello am new is White Forest a good archetype to invest in before petdecks if the latest yu-gi-oh game I played was Link Evolution and I have an irrational aversion to playing Utopia or Ontomats? Cydra was pretty fun but kinda bad, and the Resonator deck felt incomplete and one-track.
>Hello am newfuck off faggot
>>579546110the deck is good and very fun and can have many pushes into boards with the right non engine. but until droll is banned i'm never playing it again. it's way too frustrating
>>579545080Judai fell in love with Yubel and he was one of the realest duelists.
>>579546278Thx, guess I'll look at dimensional fissure or something that dodges droll.
>>579455224personally the worlds shared cards pool being 3/5 called by, maxx c, ash should warent all 3 being outright banned. it made what would otherwise be an interesting mechanic suffocating and solid cards like charmies were cut from decks that needed them.
>>579546741judai always was in love with yubel, he just had memory issues
>>579536001>Which non-t1/t2 decks have a high enough ceiling to be competitive when you're skilled enough at piloting them?Obvious answer is sky strikerA shitty player is easy to predict and counter, a good player is pure fucking cancer
>tenpai opponent got filtered by saint azaminathat is actually kind of funny.
>>579547801a lot the newer shit completely walls tenpai
>>579547071Just play sales ban.
>>579528108Just play memento, the deck hasn't changed but no one bothered to learn how to beat it. Everyone just sorta casually forgot it existed.
Low rank duels with shitter decks are KINO.Btw fuck jesse perez and his strange need to you obscure engines.Because of his autistic ass i actually got all the regenesis and magistus."Next fiendsmith" my ass.
>>579550104>Btw fuck jesse perez and his strange need to you obscure engines.>he listened to the MATHEMATICIAN of yugiohlmao
>>579550104flame swordsman has got to be the gayest yugi boomer card
>>579544984
>>579550569Warriors cant be gay, they have a whole containment archetype for homos called heros.I wish we woud get like a monster hunting party themed deck of gearfried, gilford, flame swordsman and buster blader.Give them a continoues effects that makes cards that go to the graveyard go to the ST Zones instant, and let the warriors equip them as gear through various means like fighting or destroying stuff.
>>579551005>that handoofglad i switched over to dracotail brandedi've been playing with the new hits too and it feels like nothing has changed
enough about april, our favourite swedish femboy just went live!
>>579536001Yummy and Mitsu pure
>>579528992That meta looks like Hell
>>579551315That's your takeaway from the image?
>>579551315how does it feel being retarded? genuine question
>>579551914>>579552098he drew 3 bricks 2 duplicates and a card that does next to nothing in the lab match up unless they're on continuous floodgates (they're not anymore)
>>579551005You normal summon albaz here right?
>>579550104>>579550569The Flame Swordsman cards are pretty kino, I wish they had uses beyond being a suboptimal engine in Infernoble

>>579557618you gonna just ignore the branded cards you nigger
>>579559382There are exactly 0 cards, in the picture, inside of the red boxes.
>>579552628naw just activate fallen of the white, send albion, and depending on if the effect is negated or something else happens, just use f&v at any point send titanclad. end phase titanclad summon quem, ,then albion for opening, discard summon aluber, aluber for high spirits, high spirit send dogma, quem eff dogma eff etc surely that's enough resources and lab can't otk for sht so if you get to your next turn you're winning
>>579560126"My fellow Dractotails" - Branded

>>579557590not their fault zoomers can't hear the word AI without having a melty
im going to play the FUCK outta clown unless its 20 URs
>>579554587>OTK deck>Gets cockblocked by 2 defense mode monstersIts kinda sad really.The deck is bloated as fuck too, you play triple of all the starters and 2 of all the engine shit like salamandra fusion + the traps or atleast chain, and after you add the mandatory handtraps there is almost no room for going second power spells.Cant even search for gearfried as a secondary win con or just endboard booster.But atleast it can use impulse...And i think it can Zealantis otk if you dont use the magical flameswordsman starter i guess?Tenpai shits on my man, but atleast i have something fun to play while in silver with all the structure deck boys that learn how to play.
>>579561542>activated effectopp are just going to negate that shit before it resolves
>>579560853>>579561348So.... what, clown is a shit meme deck then? Is there anything else worth rolling for with this pack or is it a skip? I kinda see potential in Phara but I don't know if that alone is enough to roll
>NO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND>I HAD TO PLAY AN FTK/FLOODGATE DECK>BECAUSE BRANDED [heavy breathing]>BRANDED GETS CARD ADVANTAGE IN THE END PHASE
>>579564467this but unironically
>>579564106By itself it looks kinda meme-y, but with ROLAD it looks dope. I'll still pick up the cards.
>>579564467i mean, that's just powercreep in a nutshell. there's no grind versus a deck that spends all its resources and gets 4+ cards of advantage for free at the end phase. you kill them in 1 turn or you stop them from resolving a single card.
>>579566865Phara or Clowns? I assume you mean Phara, which makes this pack a skip?The only mild interest I had with clowns was using them as Gods support but now that Ra has a proper deck I'm waiting for the other gods to get one too
Prove you're not a tranny who parrots YugiJewbers and are actually the main characterI'll start:Called By The Grave being banned is an awful change.
>>579568176>Called By The Grave being banned is an awful change.You're such a stupid motherfucker defending a retarded fucking card that should have been gone years ago.
>>579560642>draco engine could've been left untouched you go +6 on resolving ketu, fuck off already DT and fusion apologists are the worst.
>>579568176Called By The Grave needed to fucking die, but it should have died after the roach. Also I hate that they banned it when the strongest deck in the room is running ten million handtraps.
>>579569379so what? every modern deck goes +10 off resolving 1 card uninterrupted. and draco's advantage is reliant on them successfully resolving trap cards. you're telling me in a game state with F&V you can't play around horn/flame? arthalion + gulamel 3 traps isn't a real board, even with 5 hand traps behind it. The only real atrocious part about dracotail is recycling maxx c and ash, the former shouldn't even be at 1.
>>579568176wholesome midrange slop is a real epidemic
>>579569863This is similar to banning ariseheart during tear format. >>579569982Not off resolving a single card you fuckass, nor do those other decks chainblock themselves or just prevent handtraps from working at all.
>unban called by later and run the alt art again>no refunds lmao
>>579570305>have all the twin alt arts I'm sad
>>579570059Then the advantage generated by the sets don't count either. Not to mention ketu only fuses if there's something on board, which means you're going 2nd, and people seem to want the game to go towards a direction where it's good that the player going 2nd can play. Like do you know what the play pattern vs normal dracotail going 2nd is? You just negate their ways of fusing and they can't play the game, and all decks have a way of doing that
>>579570049Meanwhile at Worlds-Yeah we sure have a midrange problem in YGO
When are they going to publicly apologize for making dr*cotail?
>>579571404It's easy to say combo is cancer but are you brave enough to say something about midrange?
>>579568176the game wont get better as long as the japanese are at the helm of the r&d, they're just not good a designing card games and should stick to art/lore
>combo is cancer>midrange is cancer>control is cancer>stun is mega cancerGuys I'm starting to think this entire game might be cancer
>>579572623modern yugioh is just fucked beyond all repair
Why do people hate called by so much? It seems like a normal staple to me. Graveyard is strong, hand traps are strong, is having some graveyard hate really that cancerous?>it stops me from using hand trapsI guess but it also stops the opponent from using hand traps, so what's the problem?
>>579572454Considering the only deck at Worlds that wasn't overwhelmingly retarded with its win/loss ratio, no, you would do well not to confuse your bravery for being a retard.
>>579572971>Considering the only deck at Worlds that wasn't overwhelmingly retarded with its win/loss ratiowas a midrange deck, Sky Striker-
>>579572971>nope there's nothing strong at all about my multiple tier 1 midrange decks that literally compete with satanic combo decks and if you think there is then you're like a retard or something You sound like a scared animal.
>>579572454midrange doesn't even exist in yugioh, and is just as dishonest as combo. all midrange decks just look to resolve completely broken cards and drag you into a similar unwinnable board state as combo does, at no point does either deck hold a play in hand and just vomits out everything. The days of 'grabbing follow up' is over, with branded being one of the most egregious decks that just auto adds follow up at end phase.
>>579569367>>579569863>>579570049NPC Jewgituber trans watchers as expected.>*runs check on subs*Ahh yes, subscribed to Jess, subscribed to April, yep, it's all here.
>>579571445dracotail is one of the best made archetypes in the last 10 years only ruined by its ability to add back ash and maxx c
>>579490221Like the one in the structure deck? I could buy that if so
>>579572861>Going second guy is stopped from using hand trapsGoing first guy summons 3 omnis and handrips 2+ times then goes into spell canceller or their second engine >Going first guy is stopped from using handtrapsGoing first guy didn't need that Ash/Roach anyways since he had the 2-3 handrips, floodgate, and 3+ negatesAnd if he really wanted that Roach, he just negates Called By anyways>But the finger rapes Albaz or whatever the Elfnotes trap is trying to revive as a 1-for-1 tradeYou lose more games because finger let going first set up completely, than games where you had more bait than going first had interruptions and the finger made a difference
>>579573175lmao you sound like a retard
>>579572861it's just another way to defeat handtraps, and handtraps are unanimously agreed to be necessary for the player going 2nd to even have a chance. you don't want cards that defeat handtraps if you're openly admitting that the player going 2nd can't play without them. And called by for a hand trap is not a true 1 for 1 trade for the player going first if they're pushing through a handtrap that stops them from going +3. it also doesn't become dead on the next turn since it's a quickplay, there's just a lot of conflicting problems with a card like this in the current state of the game. Charmies should just not be respondable imo, like superpoly. if they have to resolve for the player going 2nd to play then they must resolve if you draw it.
>>579572861It makes going 1st stronger than it already is
>>579563524Notice the lack of colon and semi-colon
>first game with a new runick yummy deck I just crafted>18 turn deckout win vs yubelHoly kino
>>579575273post list
>>579572861>is having some graveyard hate really that cancerous?That's not it, it's because it's handtrap protection and it's almost always more powerful going first. Most handtraps nowadays are already bad value if you only draw one, Called By effectively means fuck you if you didn't draw three handtraps or two handtraps praying your opponent's hand is shit.Also, it's really fucking unfair as GY hate because it works on any monster and any monster for two turns. You rarely hear about people hating on Bystials or other non-floodgate types of GY interaction. No one thinks the GY should be untouchable, Called By is retarded even as being GY hate. It's just a really unbalanced card
>>579575273
>>579575416>You rarely hear about people hating on Bystialsmagnamhut...
>>579571445>People jerk off DT for being "strong but fair", unlike other meta decks>Because it "only" does a bunch of on-board pops/bounces/banishes instead of a bunch of negatesIronically, in a situation where a player only has a board or handtraps with on-board monster interactions, DT is probably the least "fair"Other tiered stuff like Elfnotes or KT, even Ratslop, at least need their bodies on to survive on board where they can be Impermed or popped, even if they can often extend past it, that's "strong, but at least you hit them with the same shit as everyone else (i.e. fair)"DT popping Faimena or either of the spells just gets all the removal and search effects without ever letting you use any "fair" interactions against them
>>579575032that was my bad i was looking at this card >>579560853 but replied to the other >>579561542so which one is the correct/newer?
>>579561348i had fairy tail player crown my sec dragon twice yesterday he couldn't remove it so he turned off all of his deck except mechaba lol
>>579568176pure branded is petdeck tier is a bad deck only played because branded fusion is limited and doesn't work with the new support
>>579575894Read nigger, the context is GY hate. People hate Mag because he searches any Dragon, not because it is GY disruption.
I am mad that called by is banned because I have the alt art but banning the card is good unless my enemy is a nigger and uses maxx c
>>579570419ketu into rota into whatever you want, dickrider, sorry you can't think two steps ahead, but you're a dracotail player carried by your fucking fag deck, so I guess that makes sense
>>579577751keto into lukias is a +0, because you don't count the other cards apparently, so i don't see where the bitching of +6 comes from.
Why do we hate HERO again?
>>579577879Quadruple floodgate archetype
>>579577879Because they touch you at night
>>579577879floodgate
>>579577879everything is fine except this guy, and maybe the neos card that just skips your turn
>>57957787920 minute turn 1 floodgate turbo.
Her gayme
>>579577879Because it’s played almost exclusively by browns.
>>579578360What's a deck that's played exclusively by whites in contrast?
>makes you seethe
>>579575385I don't have SP, so that could be over one of the gravity controllers
>>579577863because you resolve rahu after resolving lukias holy fucking shit the fact that I need to spell out the most basic of basic plays for you shows how little you understand about the game and how carried you are by this fucking faggy ass ugly ass generic fucking archetypethat's the worst part about the fucking justice hunters set is that yummy was the only deck with any artistic integrity or soul; the other two are so fucking disgustingly generic and yet so absurdly obnoxious in card advantage with so little thinking involved that it physically makes me fucking ill
>>579577879over 10% of the card pool and new cards get released in nearly every fucking set so its probably more like 15% at this pointthere's no art to any of the cards; they're all generic buff men in spandex (and like one woman)the deck's endboard is either a nib token or floodgates and its basic combo is long-winded but also thoughtless to the point where someone that doesn't even play the deck has the fucking combo memorized more super poly fusion slop
>>579579057?>Not off resolving a single card you fuckass, nor do those other decks chainblock themselves or just prevent handtraps from working at all.so does the advantage generated through your combo count or not? because like i said every modern deck goes +10 off resolving 1 card, whether that's habakiri or tract, and they all can play through multiple hand traps. Also yummy has normal summon cupsy so i don't know why you consider it more 'honest' than dracotail. you can handtrap the cupsy all you want yummy still gets to its board. The yummy combo decks with either mitsu or solfachord is 10x more degenerate than the dracotail branded boards
>crimson target dispater SS majestic star dragon for omni into field wipe>assault synchron banish itself SS back majestic for another omni into field wipe>junk signal rev back majestic for another omni into field wipe>also dispater negateI wonder if you can actually trim all the fats and just make yusei.dek into a simple triple omni into field wipe
>>579577879they are combo AND can end on two floodgates. and don't forget their own archetypal kali yuga they can summon on your turn.
>>579460080I like your idea but I would propose this modification:>no going first or second, both players get a "turn 0">you load into the game, no coin flip yet, draw 5 cards and go>you don't see your opponent and can't interact with them yet>after both players hit end phase, then turn 1 begins and do the coin flip>game proceeds as usualThis way you guarantee both players can play the game without getting interrupted. Also fixes trap cards as a whole because they're immediately activatable on turn 1. The "anyone can shift into battle phase whenever" causes a lot of ruling issues.>but what about FTKs/exodia/etcban them, FTKs shouldn't exist in the game anyway. Or make exodia apply only after turn 1 or something.>but what about 1000+ negate combo decksdoesn't matter because they are reactive by nature and you already have your board setup.Even if combo decks are better, as a non-combo deck player it is still strictly better for you to have a turn 0 than have no turn at all when you go against a combo deck.
>>579578584kewl tunes
>>579578584dragonlink
Since everyone is doomposting, do you have any ideas on how to fix the game? Personally I think the structure is fine, its just whoever the fuck comes up with cards is insane and they keep going "okay but what if we took this banned card and do it again" as if expecting anything different. Fire them and get a new team or something, although on the other hand I don't want the game to become TOO obsessed with balance and card design becomes boring either...
>>579580223I have kairyu-shin and your board is now illegal
>>579580582Stun is going to stun no matter how you slice it. It's a card design "problem" not a game design problemAlso if these combo decks are as strong as people say, they would just remove this guy and build the board back up
>>579580223What, so both players present a completed endboard? That feels like a bad idea plus it invalidates go second decks that don't create an endboard first but rely on breakers or picking a board apart like Sky Striker, Numeron or Tenpai.Like, this is something that only works if its a combo deck vs another combo deck. On top of that, some decks REQUIRE interaction with the opponent's board to function like Mimighoul or Lair of Darkness or anything thar specialises in stealing monsters or cutting them off at chokepoints.
>>579580956>they would just remove this guy and build the board back uponly if they won the coinflip ;)
>>5795805381. maxx c and droll banned2. all charmy cards can no longer be negated/responded to3. Create a 4th charmy drollwalos that is droll except with the charmy clause of activating only when you don't control cards4. ban all bridges like moon, gravity controller, anaconda, etc. Anything that allows an engine to bridge into another archetype and combo with zero of that archtype card in hand gets banned. If players find other combo routes ban those too. this includes rng ones like zombie vampire5. ban all generic extra deck handrips and omni negates like baronne, savage, omega, etc6. unban/unlimit a bunch of cards that is only on the list for crimes committed in hybrid decks7. revisit the list after a month to address shit like ash and single archtypes being too strong like ryzeal/tear etc
>>579581121You'd literally ban all LIGHT fiends in the game
>>579581380just ban all fiends desu
>>579581040>it invalidates go second decks that don't create an endboard first but rely on breakers or picking a board apart like Sky Striker, Numeron or TenpaiYou can still play breakers but the idea is that each deck should have a plan when going first or second, not just blindly assuming "my deck needs to go first/second" and going all-in on that idea> On top of that, some decks REQUIRE interaction with the opponent's board to function like Mimighoul or Lair of Darkness or anything thar specialises in stealing monsters or cutting them off at chokepoints.Yeah good point idk how to resolve this, it's going to invalidate a lot of deck designs that involve interacting with your opponent as part of your "endboard"
>>579581380if fiendsmith becomes that big of a problem then requiem dies, but as far as i'm aware card quality does matter since the fiendsmith engine isn't that good on its own, and any 2 monsters is a lot easier than armades. the point is to get decks playing all their OWN cards at good consistency without feeling the need to include entire engines to play through hand traps, for hand traps to actually be reliable going second, and ceilings to be controlled within archetype design.
>>579581121How are you defining bridges? Dark Magician of Destruction is obviously a Dark Magician card and yet its best use case is letting Sinful Spoils access Dragoon without needing any other DM related card. Do you ban DMOD then?Personally I feel like decks need to be more xenophobic or encourage being run pure. People hate Shaddoll and Enneacraft for being floosgatey but you have to admit, they don't run slop. Shaddoll's latest support lets you only access Shaddoll ED monsters so they run themselves pure, and Enneacraft simply doesn't really care about having non-Enneacraft cards due to the way it functions. I wouldn't mind if more decks were designed like that, rather than run into nonsense that was Fire King Snake Eyes or Ishizu Tearlament, or most decks having the same generic ED monsters and engines like Fiendsmith or Adventure.I suppose lore decks can be an exception but honestly I like decks that feel like they have a strong identity instead of being "30 main deck and 10 ED cards are exactly the same as everyone else, the remainkng 10 main deck cards are my real archetype" bullshit. It just makes the game feel generic and the card pool feel smaller than it really is. 11,000+ cards and everyone uses the same 100!
>>579581676>and any 2 monsters is a lot easier than armadesmedius into chimkin
>>579569863>Called By The Grave needed to fucking die, but it should have died after the roachretard
>>579581121>4. ban all bridges like moon, gravity controller, anaconda, etc.The problem is not the bridge but the end piece. If Fiendsmith fusion cards are not that strong, you wouldn't mind having moon legal.
>>579581706dmod dies, magician souls also dies. summoning any kind of end-board piece with interaction from outside your archetype without resolving a card from that archetype is banned. You can play mitsu yummy, you just aren't allowed to get to yummy with a hand of only mitsu cards and vice versa.
>>579569982>you're telling me in a game state with F&V you can't play around horn/flame?Continuous Spell decks can't play around flame at all. If a deck blocks out an entire subset of deck it's broken shit.
>>579581676I'm not the one saying we should burn literally all bridges regardless of qualityEven a fair and honest SHS player would get strays just because some fucker decided to use scarecrow to bridge into yummy
>>579581864If your deck literally filled with continuous spell to warrants being called a continuous spell deck, then you won't mind getting one negatedYou'd worry about fucking dednader more
>>579581706the reality is that some decks will feel extremely shit, and will lose iconic core engine cards and be rendered unplayable. but the idea is to get the modern archetypes power levels down to a point where people are actually playing the game instead of being in a situation wehre you hand trap the turn 1 player to death or scoop. afterwards if all those old archtypes have demand you can print/errata cards to bring them back to playable.
Are we ready to admit that a banlist, no matter how "nuclear" it is, will never be enough to "fix" the perceived issues with the game?
>>579582151your hatred of bridges are unwarranted and barely even achieved what you aim to doHAT and IDS doesn't really have bridges connecting each other, but they were played as a set
>>579581864the point isn't that every deck ever made can play into dracotail, it's that the powerlevel of modern decks all have ways to play around the dracotail traps. making SP to contest the flame is a super common play
>>579575416> You rarely hear about people hating on Bystials
>>579582278I have made peace with that realization a long time agoThe best way to enjoy the game has to be something that is other than winning because Konami doesn't seem to really care about how the game is played at a professional level
>>579581706>Do you ban DMOD then?unironically yes, terribly ill conceived cardcompletely generic archetypal searchers like duodrive, primera primus should all dieit's funny because occasionally konami remember to not make them completely generic, like for example gagagaga girl is generic but she can search only if she has an onomat material
>>579582396how is it unwarranted. i despise when decks that create good gameplay get nuked from outer space because their very manageable endgame board is combined with another engine to create a completely unmanageable board. yummy is fine on its own except for herald and the mitsu cards. dracotail is a completely manageable deck without the branded cards. shit like fiendsmith just adding a ceaser to an otherwise playable endboard to make it unbreakable is what pushes decks over the edge, and leads to dogshit bans like cupsy to 1, lukias to 1, etc. none of these cards would be on the list if people didn't have to deal with arc light + great fire + murakumo + full yummy interactions. A deck like dracotail is well designed to have a high floor and low ceiling, but people combine it with shit like branded to get an extra 4 interrupts and suddenly the consistency is a problem and the only way to make it 'balanced' is apparently to make the player going first brick and create another non-game.
>>579582076>You'd worry about fucking dednader moreI am not worried about Deadnamer because non-Cross Ryzeal is a mediocre deck while Dracotail is overpowering because of how resistant it is to basically all nonengineRetared TCG faggots only downplay it because the type of deck that beats Dracotail, big monster combo, is the type those niggers like to play anywayThat's like someone downplaying Tear or Branded because they main deck 10 Bystial of course the decks are weak when you're main decking silver bullets VS them
>>579582934So you don't actually care if a deck blocks out an entire subset of deck, you only care if a GOOD deck doing that
>>579581706DMOD is essentially a generic, 2800 ATK Link 1 that also searches something, that shit is not ok
>>579582876people will still combine shit without bridgeswe literally have history of this
>>579582934ah yes, the deck that can fuse at most 3 times a turn is resistant to non-engine like ash, purge, dominous, belle, etc. have you tried just ashing the rahu instead of ripping it on the lukias in hopes that it full stops them? because i promise you can play through arthalion set 1 and faimena in hand with 5 cards, since all modern ygo cards are 1 card full combos
>>579583108thats fine, statistically that's dogshit and won't affect competitive play. there's always room to get sacked in card games. it's like saying going 2nd is good because tenpai drew all unique non-engine plus their 1 starter. sure if you want to play mitsu yummy and pray you open both engines plus enough non-engine then be my guest. the reality is either you play too much engine and can't go 2nd or you brick too hard going first and have access only to 1 engine most of the time. and like i said, it's not meant to be a silver bullet, there will be outliers who need additional tuning but it's a lot better than what we have.
>>579581971cupsy should die or be errata'd into needing a name desu because now all present and future decks that can put level 1s on board without locks can consider slopping it up with it
It's kinda funny how fusions used to need a specific spell but now you can fuse using just two monster
>>579583371>statistically that's dogshit and won't affect competitive playwe literally have history of this proven otherwiseand notice that literally all the shit you seethe about here >>579582876 ain't about the bridges itself, but rather the endboard piecesand only the most topical of bridges even, and yet you called of banning of all bridges
>>579583662the strongest
>>579583584>just two monsterngmi
>>579582934dracotail is resilient to non-engine because you don't actually need non engine to play into arthalion gulamel and 3 traps. its not the same as playing into the white forest end board or elf note endboard or w/e with a billion negates. they don't have a single omni negate and their traps are not resilient to non-engine or interaction. Complaining that you can't make dracotail pass on literally nothing is such a weird stance
>>579581845...is it dark magician's fault if their cards can be used for slop? Its not as if Dark Magician decks are even all that good so it feels rather punishing for them. I'd rather they be errata'd to give them archetype locks
>>579583824i mean that's fine, but konami usually take their sweet fucking time with erratas and banlists are instant. i have no problems with dmod in dark magician i just don't want to blink and see poplar and then full yummy combo
no yugioh player is reading all that shit fuck off
>>579557618Just run evenly 5head.I actually am, I just had a DT Andy shame scoop after desperation activating their traps and instinctively activating gulamel in response
>completely bricked>all I had is subspace battle>also had dfissure. fucking forgot to use it first so their monsters would be banished instead of going to the gy from subspace which is the best choice 99% of the time>mfw the first monster they send to the gy is kashtira ogre>mfw they instantly scoop
yeah malicious really deserved to be unlimitedherotinx get the rope
>>579583584i mean it's hard to keep up with synchro/xyz/link otherwise. the spells basically have to fuse from deck now and be searchable
>>579582431nta but this gets said a lot and I don't even know how true it issure there's stuff like VS or DT mirror or SS that barely care about what's on their board, but plenty of other current or recently tiered decks will still just die if DT pops/bounces/banishes the first 3-4 bodies they put downthese fuckers are all up in top rating for a reason, clearly modern decks can't actually deal with DT that easily
I hope you guys know this is a bridge card
>>579585502all I need to know is it says hero in the card so I dont give a shit
>>579585502do i call by it?
>>579585738Destiny heroes and asterbros got raped into years of ehero jadenslop outside of like duel links for this attitude
>>579585502nobody cares about the differences between elemental, masked, evil, vision heros or neo spaciansfor most people that arent hero turd worlders they're all the same shit from the same archetype played in the same omni hero slop deckthat's obviously not the kind of card people think of when they complain about bridges
>>579586046>Doesn't know about the new D-hero supportIf anything Jaden is the one in the mud
>>579585502ok then it gets banned, are you winning son?
