I don't like how current Purrely plays, I would rather wait until we get Epurrely Noir and so you can grab Sleepy off My Friend to guarantee Noir on the opponent's turn
Doing 1-2 duels a day and participating in monthly events gives you like 7000+ gems a month, which is more than enough to build any deck except for the super UR taxed ones like Branded, and that's not counting gems and cp from the duel pass, gems from victories, or gems from ranking up in ranked. You can play super casually and the game will still give you more than enough resources to build pretty much anything you want the same day that it comes out, without spending a cent. If you actually spend money on gems for boosters in this game you're a moron, unlike paper where paying money is mandatory and prices are massively overinflated to boot.
I crafted 2 decks from scratch in the past 2 weeks with just those 2 weeks worth of gems, the gems from the current event, and some crafting points that I still had kicking around from my last build.
>which is more than enough to build any deck except for the super UR taxed ones like Branded
I would argue no.
With paper, you can buy singles off the secondary market. You might pay a lot, but you are guaranteed to get the card you paid for.
In MD you are FORCED to interact with the shitty gacha system so nothing is guaranteed. You are literally taking on more risk than a gambler does in a casino with slot machines (since modern slot machines are progressive, meaning you can take another player's buildup if they get up and leave).
I watched MDC pull like 5 URs after spending $100 on the most recent gem sale. 10K Gems give you 5 fricking URs, that is not enough to craft anything but Gate Guardian.
Dusting those 5 URs will give you exactly 1 Thrust. So you can at least mtch that TCG SECONDRY MARKET price.
I've got 5 meta decks and 5 pet decks and have never spent a dime on this game. If I bought the same cards irl I'd be out a few months worth of mortgage

I just went up against a Mikanko deck with my Salad deck in the Duelist Cup & I got to say, I never thought this cards last effect would actually be useful. I had 11100 LP by the time the duel ended & most of it was me nuking his field with Pyro Phoenix + Transcendence, blowing up his monsters with Promethean Princess & defending with Sanctuary's last effect every time he tried to inflict damage to me. It was so one-sided that I almost field sorry for the guy.
I don't follow cardboard but I think we have access to everything they do for support. Gilgamesh is a major chokepoint and it lacks protection. Machinex is a menace if your opponent can't play through him. Here's a netdeck I stole

No it's fine because it loses to literally everything else. The deck has 1 good card and he's actually playing it in-archetype instead of making Boarder Stun with it. GKs defeating an army of zombies is thematic and cool.

i wasn't just bragging because i beat a shitty petdeck, it was just the last straw that got me to finish my gravekeepers deck. i was gloating because my investment paid off after running into it again, and just now for btfoing a dragon link deck
I could've Kurikara'd the Heatsoul turn 4, gotten exactly 6k damage on board (Kurikara + Lilith + Muckraker).
Even if he Imperms Kurikara, that's 4500, and then I Super Poly to Starving Venom for game.
But I Fiend-locked myself before getting her out.
Left one is approximately what I used in that duel.
Though I removed Wannabee, Thrust, and a third card.
Right is a more "meta" deck (which needs a second copy of Red Reboot).
But it’s treated as a combo deck isn’t it with most players following a flowchart

at that point you should have tracer in hand

No. There are BE themed cards and related stuff but the "lore" for it is strictly the anime.
The only things that got anime support while also being part of a major card story were Gem-Knights as far as I recall, and technically Bujins although that's kind of cheating and also not a major card story. Almost all others, even if they were used in the anime, kept to one or the other when it came to support theming.
Numeral Hunter = Kaito Tenjo
Whatever the frick that moronic banned Zexal Xyz is that's literally Yuma, I can't be fricked to remember the name = Yuma Tsukumo
There's a card based on Astral
Beyond the Pendulum is supposed to look like Ray from Arc-V iirc
All the Bujins are modeled after anime characters
That little Morphtronic synchro is based on the twins from 5Ds
None of you frickers mentioned how funny weather painters + soul absorption is! Just … how do I turn the LP gains into damage? Number 43 is kinda a pain to make.
Quit yugioh back when pendulums came out. Becuse back then I tough special summoning 5 monster in one turn the game had reach bunker levels.
Oh boy, but like a dog to its vomit I came back. Now I get to watch my opponent special summon 20+ to get a bunch of beatsticks, omninegates, floodgates, and hand advantage.
people hated pend so much when they came out I don't blame Konami for not supporting them
it's when I quit yugioh because I thought I would have to figure in how to make my deck with synchro, xyz, and pend AND counter against all of them and i thought it would be a headache
I think most people thought that and didn't realize they were pretty much their own archetype and not splashable like other shit
I'm the one who made that post
It's basically like the other anon said >Yuya and Yuzu were a pair in the anime >in the manga it's a little different, he rejects her at the last second and goes back to his own time >then she meets his dad >they marry, and she bangs his dad and gives birth to him and the other characters as the final panel of the manga
It's specifically because the duo was originally known for being romantically involved in the anime that her giving birth to him in the manga and fricking his dad is jarring.
It won't make any impact on you if you didn't care for their relationship in the anime.
a fricking genuine turn 1 play
a better starter than wyvern, it's so fricking stupid that they restricted it to not be able to set shit only because they were scared of ancient gear drill searching a spell when thrust does the fricking same anyway
Nah they've been learning that being megaisraelite just kills your game
See how many new secret packs we're getting?
They're pumping out cosmetics too, this is how you sell
it has already been 2 years, you can stop coping. The most blatant change was increasing URs to 13 in August 2022 and we keep getting solo modes, gem gifts, structures and bundles.
it's just not efficient when the whales who have full royal decks don't even need cosmetics

Welp, back to SF6 until a new pack that catches my eye drops.
SF6 is my in between FG until Under Night 2 comes out next month, but I do admit I have a lot fun playing Mr.I summon a Giant Tornado and control the neutral now.

Hypothetical speaking let's say you are in charge of increasing monthly revenue of this cross platform game without increasing your allowed budget.
How would you do it?
Why are you homosexuals so worried about Konami making money on this game to begin with? Just enjoy the F2P Yu-Gi-Oh game that doesn't frick you over like Duel Links.
ugh, please don't do this
I was almost spooked away from trying this game to begin with because someone had misled me into believing all the Mates in the shop were cash only
Release a second lower value Selection pack each month that's primarily reprints of existing cards but also has a FOMO alt art in it alongside the main Selection pack that has the new meta cards. Just look at how much whales spent on the IP alt art pack and now much FOMO morons currently are spending on Ra. The normie playerbase is not impacted negatively because they aren't being aggressively preyed on or excluded from the opportunity to pull or missing out on any actually new exclusive cards, but the whales, collection autists, and people who succumb to FOMO will be encouraged to roll more than they otherwise would, and hopefully, spend more money to do so.
Hmm, well the easiest way is just to add extra rarities, same as the irl game. People have proven they can and will whale for a slightly shinier piece of cardboard, and this goes the same for digital cardboard. Considering MD's existing rarities, this shouldn't be a major budget sink.
The second easiest way would be adding a "completion" bonus to a Selection Pack, where you would receive a prize for "completing" the gacha (i.e. obtaining 1 of every card in it). However, this is dubiously viewed and will be somewhat maligned, so much like irl, it's best to make it a cosmetic or added rarity bonus card that is easily available elsewhere.
The unethical way to do it would simply be to adopt the Duel Links method of monetization and hybridize it into Master Duel, but this would work poorly in the long term.

FINALLY A FRICKING DECK I SPENT UR ON THAT DOESNT SUCK AND ACTUALLY HAVE FUN WITH
Contrary to what people will tell you here and in social media, Kashtira still bodies 95% of decks in the game, god forbid if you don't have an in-engine out against ariseheart. It helps that people are going all in in gamma and bystials, which manage very little against kashtira's board presence.
tl;dr, Kashtira is a deck that gets way better the less prepared the metagame is for it. Much like Mathmech but far more resilient and with a floodgate slapped in.
Fragile as frick endboard with like 2 telegraphed interruptions, I play a going second deck full of board breakers and it's pretty much impossible to lose to Kash unless I brick.
Wouldn’t it be the best deck in the game due to the best of 1 format? I understand boarder stun is in that range for that reason. How often do counters even come up aside from typical handtraps

>Kashtira shill
Kashtira is so bad that there's no downplayers just coping unplayers that got duped into crafting a telegraphed deck that dies to Droll/Nib
I lost to kashtira while resolving maxx c once. They went full combo with double shangri, fenrir, arise-heart. Didn't draw my DRNM, kurikara or one of my 3 edge-imp scythe.
Wouldn't have mattered in that scenario because if those were droll and nib, I wouldn't have drawn them either way. Replacing DRNM with droll might be interesting for fluffals though just have to remember to not use them on my turn.
how am I shilling the deck? It's not even in store moron. Saying "people are massive morons downplaying the deck" doesn't mean I'm "shilling" the deck. I have all the pieces to make it, yet I'm playing Dragon Link and Vanquish Soul
Fragile as frick endboard with like 2 telegraphed interruptions, I play a going second deck full of board breakers and it's pretty much impossible to lose to Kash unless I brick.
Super Poly or Evenly; plus obviously generally having a strong hand to prevent them from flooding the board with their crap.
I don't have a positive win rate against them by any means but if it goes well, it tends to end with a win. Vs something like Branded or VS, even if it starts well, I usually end up running out of resources and they can rebuild.
Speaking of kash, I haven’t touched kashtira since pack release and never finished making it. All I need is one more unicorn BUT I need THREE theosis to complete it. should I just craft them and try the deck?
Something that confuses me about text wording, when a card says something like "when your opponent activates a spell/trap card OR effect, negate" I would assume it only negates spell/trap cards but the loose "or effect" leads me to believe it's an omninegate that works on any effect.
Konami makes the distinction between a spell/trap card and a spell/trap effect.
If you could only negate a spell/trap CARD you can only negate the activation of a continuous/field S/T being placed onto the field but not the opponent activating an effect on it after its already been placed.
mine was branded lost
it says the "activation" of cards and EFFECTS that fusion summon cant be negated
I thought this meant you couldnt use ash or imperm
it actually means the activation of a card OR the activation of the effect of a card
which somehow means you can negate the "effect" since its not negating the "activation"
>tfw playing VW, got roached so I just made shenshen chuche pass >mathmech Black person immediately imperms shen, goes into linguriboh and combos his way into accesschud thinking linguriboh protects him from Chuche >pop his chudie because Linguriboh only negates ACTIVATION of Trap Cards, and not EFFECTS of Trap that is already face up on the field
I was laughing my ass off at that Black person happily comboooing thinking he was safe behind his "trap negate".
I'm not playing Zoo, but I think any one plus Chakratine makes it. However you likely want Drident as well if you draw both zoo normal and barrage, and with F0 and UDF that's 4-5 ED slots.
Adventure is probably just way better I guess.
4 of your ED slots, even more if you want Drident, which is why the whole thing was theory crafting fearmongering and no one in their right mind actually runs that shit.
Droll is way more cringe than maxx C, I have no idea why tcggays act like the roach is the ultimate fun killer when droll is just as or even more obnoxious
Droll can be played under in most cases and is far less wide spread. Maxx "C" shows up in 75% of games, 100% of deck builders, and forces you to choose one of two options which are usually both wrong either way. You're probably just playing dragon link.
>Droll can be played under in most cases
Droll can completely kill your ability to close out a game on turn 2 while maxx C imposes no actual restriction against you comboing into whatever half baked OTK board you need to win. Sure they may draw into another handtrap but it's far from a guarantee. Neither are exactly fun to play under but Droll is a literal floodgate >unironically acting like dlink is the only deck that dies to Droll
Kash, VS, purrely, floo, r*nick, mannadium, spright and millions of innocent petdecks die to Droll. Dlink even gets to spheres handily just as it does under maxx c
That's the entire point moron, if Droll is legal and 70% of games are going to be decided by the handtrap mini game then maxx C has no reason to be banned
That's the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Let's add the most bullshit card back to the game because this other slightly less bullshit card exists. You deal with Droll with Crossout or some other negate and then some gay chains Maxx C, nice fricking game you've got there. Right now in TCG, if my deck is fricked by Droll I side Crossout and 1 Droll and that's that. Droll is barely even present in most formats unlike Maxx C which is eternal, dumb knuckle dragging gay.
Most decks can't afford to run both Droll and the roach, resolving one makes the other dead in your hand, and in the situation you described maxx C still lets you play the fricking game. Droll is absolutely not absent in most formats, it's literally the premier handtrap when maxx C is banned. I deal with my opponent's first turn, he drops Droll on my first add on turn 2, now I'm dead in the water, nice fricking game. moron
>maxx C still lets you play the fricking game
Opinion fricking discarded
>Droll is barely even present in most formats unlike Maxx C
lol
I know you have the mental capacity of a goldfish but yes Droll is not often played in TCG. Even when Drytron was popular it was barely played because every other deck barely gave a shit about it or it was straight up useless. It is popular right now at this moment as a side deck card but format to format for the past couple years it has barely been present even in side decks except the brief moment where SHS was legal and it was actually a main deck card. This nonsense that everyone is playing Droll in the main deck in TCG like Maxx C is just a fricking lie from people who don't play TCG. Plus if people are playing Droll that much sometimes you can take less greedy lines to play around it or do your searching in the DP. There is no intelligent counterplay to Maxx C, you just stop playing.

Yeah it's dumb when people compare Maxx C to other handtraps when it's the only one that straight up skips the turn of most decks aside from Shifter and Droll which are way more specific and the latter can be played around.
Droll is aids but it's usually only in side decks and reserved for extra Black persony decks. If droll is main decked then it's a sign of a bad format. Maxx c is main decked is every format it's in therefore every format it's in is trash.
>evenly the homosexual mathmech board/dragon link >they negate >evenly vanquish soul >they keep their trap and make plays all the same >evenly purrely >they keep the big cat, at which point you have to draw into a kaiju to get rid of it too
I literally bought 10k gems to get vanquish soul and only got 4 vanquish soul ultra rares. Sure, I can craft most of the rest by using all of the material but why is this even allowed legally speaking? Technically I'm 30 dust short of having a complete deck too.
>why is this even allowed legally speaking
Because of some technicality that you are always "winning" something from your pull it gets around existing gambling laws.

FRICK OFF YOU STUPID Black folk WHY DOES TCBOO PREVENT ME FROM USING MONSTERS ON THE FIELD TO SUMMON I HOPE YOU CHOKE ON MY EVENLY MATCHED IN HELL
You 100% play Fenrir and Riseheart. Riseheart is there so you can have an easily searchable fire in hand and Fenrir search Fenrir obviously gets you an Earth for free. I've seen people play VS with an extended Kashtira package with Unicorn, Theosis, and D Shifter but 2 Fenrir 1 Riseheart is mandatory imo. It's too fricking good.
>am i supposed to play kash with VS or not? the kashtiras are just pressured planet spell two fenrirs and a riseheart >even playing belle
that's normal though you do play belle as long as kashtira and lab are present
He ended up making crusadia equimax pointing to it before ending his turn. A shame, I pretty much gave up at that point
sounds like he fricked himself over because equimax prevents the junk warrior from attacking and the maze field spell prevents the equimax from attacking
>Opponent makes Baronne like half way through his turn >Gets rid of it to keep comboing >Ends on a weaker board than if he had just stopped there
Why are pendgays like this?
Yeah. I'm at 20 but I'm only around half way done with the spell and play 50 games missions. I don't give a frick about round 2 since it doesn't have gem rewards.
Bros I just finished Dlink, what are some other fun decks? I've been thinking of zombies but apparently they suck dick, Unchained also looks cool but it's going to months until the new support arrives.
looks good to me but i'll play just two jiaodong and i'll reduce or even remove imperms. i'd play only two small worlds so id reduce chance of bricking.
also a general rule of thumb assuming you are playing clean 40 is that you want a range of 8-10 for every reveal attribute, you are missing out on darks there
How do you cope with all the decks that just summon their stuff on defense? feels like it's pretty much just Mathmech that gets fricked by Empen right now.
I haven't played Floo in a long time but I don't see how you would deal with Branded fusion summoning everything in defense or all the synchro summons in defense outside of opening a floodgate like Harpie's.
>try to play gate guardian >10 bricks in a row >switch to kashtira >10 game win streak
Man if you guys think kash is bricky play fricking gate guardian. At least with kash if you brick, its probably on handtraps.
>See people saying Unchained isn't going to be good in MD because it has long combos and Maxx-C fricks with that >Dlink does well despite really longo combos
Spheres is an bounce that floats into anything you might want depending on the situation which can be another bounce to a search, to setting up a starter board for the next turn. This guy's the equivalent of a Baronne pass, and there's a reason no deck does that.
It really is though especially when it encourages your opponent to use their battle phase ensuring you survive. One negate vs a full hand is trash any way you frame it.
Is Brave Engine any good in Kashtira? I feel it'd be a useful way to get a consistent negate. Especially since Kashtira can forego the NS. What am I missing? Why isn't that more common?
So... how's the Gate Guardian support? I want to roleplay as Card Majin from Forbidden Memories and Dark Duel Stories, but don't know if this new wave of support is worth it/makes the deck at all playable for the 1st time. It looks decent, at least on paper, but we all know that in practice things can be quite difference, has anyone splashed the cards yet? Or made a dedicated deck to it?
Stoopid, just take out your one-ofs that you don't want to draw and put in one-ofs that you do want to draw. Like Branded Fusion. I see that fricker in half my hands now that it is limited.
Is Levianeer worth running? I dropped Atum for the second striker dragon and titanic galaxy for unicorn too. How do I improve this to make the stretch from DL17 to 20?
Romulus effect can special summon it when you link Pisty into his arrow.
>baby red link striker, grab red metal darkness, banish striker special baby again, link into romulus and grab meteor >grab rokket from ravine send router and special tracer >link recharger into pisty, trgger romulus effect to special meteor into the field and use it for dis pater
It's a 1 card dis pater + borreelend but you can obviously make chaos ruler or borreload plus this based on other draws. I removed gamma because I was drawing those bricks too much lately.
Why are you on 2 Seyfert your deck needs more lights, Seyfert even adds Levianeer
Yeah I'm adding a third now. I was trying a 40 card version of this deck but forgot to add it back.
Is 2 striker really so good? Seems like pure cope to me. 90% of games end turn 1 or 2. Even Azalea seems like a better option for utility. Also, someone explain to me what Dillingerous Dragon is used for. I saw it today and it seemed like a good down arrow for Pisty.
Yeah its kinda dumb. I guess its nice to have different music most games, but I think it would make more sense for them to have it be your field.
If you get sick of it or just want a change, you can just buy a new field which makes sense from a business perspective.
But it is what it is.
The idea is probably making the opponent listen to your epic field theme thus both players are hearing eachother's themes but it doesn't make much sense in practice, making both players listen to the field theme of the player who won the coinflip makes much more sense.
Odd eyes in Japanese is used to refer to heterochromia. It's one of those terms that doesn't really translate well like Japanese having a word that means Phantom Thief
The best time to play is like 8 hours from now. You'll see more meta decks, but the players themselves are way worse so you have a pretty decent winrate going 2nd. Like 70% of the decks during chink time is stunshit and ftks. Its impossible to climb because every game is decided at the coin flip.
>go into ranked >run into nothing but self destruction chink bots
literally what is the point? what do they gain from this? is it just to ruin the game?
Is there any way to transform mathmech into a more control focused deck? I really don't like going for accesscode or whatever every time. It seems like the standard ED is all just for that.
Not exactly, you can play cynet conflict cyberse but it's more of a go-first and make a board kind of gameplan.
Even Salamangreat, which is more of a midrange playstyle, has easy access to jammer+accesscode, it's just how cyberse is.
cyberse is supposed to be future yugioh so everything needs to end in 2 turns
Damn. I do like cyberse conflict, but yeah, not a fan of the OTK playstyle. I guess I should've looked more into how it plays before I built it.
U Link, or Extra Link, is a mechanic where if you make a chain of co-linked Link monsters traveling from your Extra monster zone to your opponent's, you can also Link summon up into your opponent's Extra monster zone with another co-linked monster. This is typically done with a series of monsters in a U shape or V shape. Combine this with Iblee, which locks your opponent into only Link monsters, and your opponent won't be able to summon at all because their Extra monster zone is already full.

I mean you can do the firewall darkfluid shit but accesscode is just too much of a dude.

Yeah I've been noticing that. Coming from ninjas, the lack of recursion hurts.
U Link, or Extra Link, is a mechanic where if you make a chain of co-linked Link monsters traveling from your Extra monster zone to your opponent's, you can also Link summon up into your opponent's Extra monster zone with another co-linked monster. This is typically done with a series of monsters in a U shape or V shape. Combine this with Iblee, which locks your opponent into only Link monsters, and your opponent won't be able to summon at all because their Extra monster zone is already full.
Do you think that Konami is scared of continuing the Magistus storyline because they hyped themselves into a corner and now they don’t know how to deliver?

I get no joy from opening packs because I know I will be playing purrely until the deck is dead.
I don't like how current Purrely plays, I would rather wait until we get Epurrely Noir and so you can grab Sleepy off My Friend to guarantee Noir on the opponent's turn

Thrust-mind
Fine, fine, I'll narrow it like I should've. The boosters.
>The boosters.
You can't craft cards IRL
Doing 1-2 duels a day and participating in monthly events gives you like 7000+ gems a month, which is more than enough to build any deck except for the super UR taxed ones like Branded, and that's not counting gems and cp from the duel pass, gems from victories, or gems from ranking up in ranked. You can play super casually and the game will still give you more than enough resources to build pretty much anything you want the same day that it comes out, without spending a cent. If you actually spend money on gems for boosters in this game you're a moron, unlike paper where paying money is mandatory and prices are massively overinflated to boot.
I crafted 2 decks from scratch in the past 2 weeks with just those 2 weeks worth of gems, the gems from the current event, and some crafting points that I still had kicking around from my last build.
>which is more than enough to build any deck except for the super UR taxed ones like Branded
I would argue no.
With paper, you can buy singles off the secondary market. You might pay a lot, but you are guaranteed to get the card you paid for.
In MD you are FORCED to interact with the shitty gacha system so nothing is guaranteed. You are literally taking on more risk than a gambler does in a casino with slot machines (since modern slot machines are progressive, meaning you can take another player's buildup if they get up and leave).
I watched MDC pull like 5 URs after spending $100 on the most recent gem sale. 10K Gems give you 5 fricking URs, that is not enough to craft anything but Gate Guardian.
Dusting those 5 URs will give you exactly 1 Thrust. So you can at least mtch that TCG SECONDRY MARKET price.
so many text just to be wrong
I've got 5 meta decks and 5 pet decks and have never spent a dime on this game. If I bought the same cards irl I'd be out a few months worth of mortgage
What?
I have 30 different decks without having paid a cent.
WIt for Konami to mass print it next year.
This was when the first reprint came out.
OCGbros, our response?
Wait for the mass reprints.
.20 cet card in the making.
>wait 3 years for a price drop like Droplets.
Kek. Thrust is more generic and useful though. Don't expect them to drop price soon.
Because they are actually played. Besides, the cost is optional, unlike with paper.
play dlink
that card doesn't look like that...
my wife has always looked like that
You made Borrelend AND Savage through a single pop? Wow!
no spells no link effs 2 pops 3.5 card hand
every effect mattered one misstep the game is over
even the discard for the seyfert mattered
but I know I make it look easy
Dlink is the only deck i can enjoy in master duel at. i fricking love the deck
You'd be stupid not play dragons with this game's moronic banlist. It was the first deck I built at launch with 3 grass.
i just really like the bystals man theres nothing better than shitting on a mathmech Black folk day but summoning druidswarm and banishing his mathmech diameter then using said bystal to extend to break his board. there suck well designed cards.
such^
it's the most effective comboslop next to mathmech and practically hasn't been touched at all rather buffed with dis pater.

Gotta love Duellist Cup
I just went up against a Mikanko deck with my Salad deck in the Duelist Cup & I got to say, I never thought this cards last effect would actually be useful. I had 11100 LP by the time the duel ended & most of it was me nuking his field with Pyro Phoenix + Transcendence, blowing up his monsters with Promethean Princess & defending with Sanctuary's last effect every time he tried to inflict damage to me. It was so one-sided that I almost field sorry for the guy.
>mitranko
don't feel bad
Sanctuary's effect is also used in Iblee Lock to ensure your opponent can't just crash into you in the battle phase

How's the deck in Master Duel? Are key cards that change the combos/make them stronger not available?
I don't follow cardboard but I think we have access to everything they do for support. Gilgamesh is a major chokepoint and it lacks protection. Machinex is a menace if your opponent can't play through him. Here's a netdeck I stole
Huh, it has fewer URs than I thought, nice
Literally the day I dust off my marines my first match is cyber dragon lol
Too bad for him I had the icejade combo floodgate open too
I don't feel remorse on bird players.

Finally done with this shit. Used Ghostrick purrely, the deck is much less consistent but still works.
What’s the point of adding both New Frontier and Branded Fusion wallpapers so close to each other?
Shitty Mathmech Black person, you should have kept that Ash for Sneed instead of forcing me to go for Fleur and Sneeding you
>synchro dragon player spends 5 minutes wanking to get his board up

Do I want Luluwalilith for Dogmatika ritual?
Yes, It's the only good level 12 ED monster in that deck. You can even summon it off Granguignol if you play your cards right.
how?
>iris
damn I forgot about her
>I never dusted her
frick yeah, need to tweak my deck tho, mit be cool
Only 1 is fine right? ED space and all that, also I would be crafting this and that 3rd Nadir instead of rolling
Luluwalith is still a Despia monster and Granguignol can summon Despia monsters from the extra deck.
Only 1 is fine.
oh nice
Yeah. Great dump target to set up Quem, Cartesia, or Iris Swordsoul for your opponent's turn.
FRICK zombie world

So play Kash or something so you don't have to brag about beating shitty pet decks? What a moron
Man he's running Gravekeepers, he deserves to be able to run Necrovalley and boast about winning with that dogshit. I beat Gravekeepers with fricking Meklords because of Wisel's spell negate, it's pathetic.
>and boast about winning with that dogshit.
Not when he's going up against a deck he hard counters. It's like bragging you beat the roach when playing Floo
>It's like bragging you beat the roach when playing Floo
but that's one of the only two things floo players know how to talk about
No it's fine because it loses to literally everything else. The deck has 1 good card and he's actually playing it in-archetype instead of making Boarder Stun with it. GKs defeating an army of zombies is thematic and cool.
i wasn't just bragging because i beat a shitty petdeck, it was just the last straw that got me to finish my gravekeepers deck. i was gloating because my investment paid off after running into it again, and just now for btfoing a dragon link deck

I could've Kurikara'd the Heatsoul turn 4, gotten exactly 6k damage on board (Kurikara + Lilith + Muckraker).

I shamelessly netdecked Trishula's deck and its slicing DC like butter
Where is the trishula?
Trishula is a known DLink player in MD
How the frick do you even play dragon link
What’s the basic combo you’re always looking for?
It's a midrange deck with lots of lines
Never play it as a combo unbreakable board deck
But it’s treated as a combo deck isn’t it with most players following a flowchart
Passing on seals first turn is common right
How does dlink deal with set boards especially purrely noir?
Bad players go all in on Dragon Link
Look at the World Championship and see how a good Dragon Link player plays
Link to this so called good player? Thanks in advance
Trishula is a good start but the WC player in question is Joshua Schmidt at the World Championship
the priority is making seals then resolving chaos ruler
you deal with set boards by baiting negates so you can resolve your important cards
did you check the post
You miracle drew imperm and had a perfect hand wouldn’t call that a good example on what to do
Aside from goddess any reason why dlink doesn’t run Kaiju in an already bulky deck?
if that's what you are worried about i'd run thrust with herald of the abyss instead it's much better and more versatile. kaiju is bad and unsearchable unless you small world and you don't want to thin your hand as dragonlink, but i don't play dragonlink lately so what the frick do i know
>How does dlink deal with set boards especially purrely noir?
goddess
striker into romulus into seals
at that point you should have tracer in hand
then just click buttons until you win
the real skill is playing going second

Are there any cards that show Blue-Eyes lore?
There's lore in the anime and flavor text, sure, but is there any lore in the card art?
I don't think so, kinda neglected compared to dark magician having a whole universe
No. There are BE themed cards and related stuff but the "lore" for it is strictly the anime.
The only things that got anime support while also being part of a major card story were Gem-Knights as far as I recall, and technically Bujins although that's kind of cheating and also not a major card story. Almost all others, even if they were used in the anime, kept to one or the other when it came to support theming.
what are you saving for next Ganker?
I'm looking foward to
>Volcanics
>Golden pride
>Centurion

Some of those are way closer than others but none are that close I think
Volcanics could be next month if they decide to delay Super heavy Samurai cancer

>Super heavy samurai most likely in the next pack
we won't die, right?
Any other cards like these?
There's also Cyber Commander, who kinda looks like Tristan, but probably not BASED OFF of him.
Is he based off Zexal?

Are girls supposed to be frickable also or something?
Quit yugioh back when pendulums came out. Becuse back then I tough special summoning 5 monster in one turn the game had reach bunker levels.
Oh boy, but like a dog to its vomit I came back. Now I get to watch my opponent special summon 20+ to get a bunch of beatsticks, omninegates, floodgates, and hand advantage.
Nice meme, but it musted to english more betterer.
I fix.
Oh that meme was misprint of Konami, it's worth a lot on the second hand market becuse of the typos.
read the filename
I just embraced the new state of the game and downloaded new-ish casual decks for edopro and had fun.
Pendulum is fricking moronic and unnecessarily complicated. And a frick up mechanic that Konami barely supports nowadays.
people hated pend so much when they came out I don't blame Konami for not supporting them
it's when I quit yugioh because I thought I would have to figure in how to make my deck with synchro, xyz, and pend AND counter against all of them and i thought it would be a headache
I think most people thought that and didn't realize they were pretty much their own archetype and not splashable like other shit
Can someone redpillme on the manga adaptation of Arc V? Read in another thread that it was infamous but it wasn't explained why
The main heroine is the mom of the main protag and his other selves and she fricked his father.
I'm the one who made that post
It's basically like the other anon said
>Yuya and Yuzu were a pair in the anime
>in the manga it's a little different, he rejects her at the last second and goes back to his own time
>then she meets his dad
>they marry, and she bangs his dad and gives birth to him and the other characters as the final panel of the manga
That's literally Back to the Future
It's specifically because the duo was originally known for being romantically involved in the anime that her giving birth to him in the manga and fricking his dad is jarring.
It won't make any impact on you if you didn't care for their relationship in the anime.

Do you think Konami regrets making Master Duel so F2P friendly?
Master duel, and the sale of physical cards go hand by hand, Konami is making future bets on it.
Nah they've been learning that being megaisraelite just kills your game
See how many new secret packs we're getting?
They're pumping out cosmetics too, this is how you sell
they still have the people wasting money on duel links so I doubt it
They're going to make it less f2p friendly overtime. That's what they did with duel links.
it has already been 2 years, you can stop coping. The most blatant change was increasing URs to 13 in August 2022 and we keep getting solo modes, gem gifts, structures and bundles.
>increasing URs to 13 in August 2022
I respect the hustle, they trying to sped up cards release
And they could rake in way, way more money too if they just offered more customization.
it's just not efficient when the whales who have full royal decks don't even need cosmetics
sad cause there's a real lack of good ones, the new shuraig one looks dumb

Good riddance.
Is SF6 good as a first fighting game? I really like the way that Juri character moves.

Don't feel bad, I have purged 3k gems and no alt Ra yet.
I spent 3k on the alt already, now i'm on the other pack and get it in one roll
Took me about 3-4k too, and only glossy which kinda feels worse than normal one, which would at least fit with the other normal.
>he didn't get the final god with only 200 gems
Yikes! Guess someone isn't chosen.
Question:
Would you be willing to pay real money for the ability(right) to trade with other players?
fricking no. just craft
What would be the point? Might as well use the real money to buy packs and craft it. Way more fun to get it that way too.
When it comes to something like alt art royals … eh, yeah, I guess I'd spend 10 bucks on royal Ra/DM/Eldlich alt art.
I will never be a paypiggie, so no
Been playing since day 1.
$0 so far.
Doesn't make sense for a game like this.
Hypothetical speaking let's say you are in charge of increasing monthly revenue of this cross platform game without increasing your allowed budget.
How would you do it?
Why are you homosexuals so worried about Konami making money on this game to begin with? Just enjoy the F2P Yu-Gi-Oh game that doesn't frick you over like Duel Links.
direct some resources used on card animations to making deluxe mates that are paid money only.
Paid money only deluxe avatars, paid money only deluxe fields.
ugh, please don't do this
I was almost spooked away from trying this game to begin with because someone had misled me into believing all the Mates in the shop were cash only
Release a second lower value Selection pack each month that's primarily reprints of existing cards but also has a FOMO alt art in it alongside the main Selection pack that has the new meta cards. Just look at how much whales spent on the IP alt art pack and now much FOMO morons currently are spending on Ra. The normie playerbase is not impacted negatively because they aren't being aggressively preyed on or excluded from the opportunity to pull or missing out on any actually new exclusive cards, but the whales, collection autists, and people who succumb to FOMO will be encouraged to roll more than they otherwise would, and hopefully, spend more money to do so.
Hmm, well the easiest way is just to add extra rarities, same as the irl game. People have proven they can and will whale for a slightly shinier piece of cardboard, and this goes the same for digital cardboard. Considering MD's existing rarities, this shouldn't be a major budget sink.
The second easiest way would be adding a "completion" bonus to a Selection Pack, where you would receive a prize for "completing" the gacha (i.e. obtaining 1 of every card in it). However, this is dubiously viewed and will be somewhat maligned, so much like irl, it's best to make it a cosmetic or added rarity bonus card that is easily available elsewhere.
The unethical way to do it would simply be to adopt the Duel Links method of monetization and hybridize it into Master Duel, but this would work poorly in the long term.
Thank god none of you will ever be in charge of a game.
>paid cosmetics BAD
Shut the frick up, they have to keep the model afloat somehow and this is one of the best ways
Unless your dumbass has any proof Konami is losing money in MD they actually don't have to make paid cosmetics, the game has gone on for what'll be 2 years with more and more support from the company. It's doing well for them so you can frick of with your "Konami needs to monetize x or MD will DIE!" garbage.
I wouldn't say additional rarities are bad, but I really hate the guy saying make all deluxe mates cash only. Frick that.
*foil types, excuse me
Alex I will take "Predatory practices in the video game" for $400
Making that the music you hear in game is tied to YOUR field not your opponent's. That shit is why i don't care about fields anymore.
Shorter turn length obviously. Only the most hardcore autists and YGO die hards are going to sit through someone summoning shit for 5 minutes.
Shorter turns = more people playing = more people spending money; it's that simple. Afterwards, just gotta keep cosmetics coming.

How the frick do you morons play this game?
i keep playing until i win
What makes kashtira a bad deck? Whenever a go against one, homosexuals have all the plays available and not one of them bricks as is rumored
it's typically piloted by morons
It doesn't always open it's combo(but ignore that their hand then has handtraps) and I always open the Raigeki/Kaiju of course.
Wouldn’t it be the best deck in the game due to the best of 1 format? I understand boarder stun is in that range for that reason. How often do counters even come up aside from typical handtraps
Contrary to what people will tell you here and in social media, Kashtira still bodies 95% of decks in the game, god forbid if you don't have an in-engine out against ariseheart. It helps that people are going all in in gamma and bystials, which manage very little against kashtira's board presence.
tl;dr, Kashtira is a deck that gets way better the less prepared the metagame is for it. Much like Mathmech but far more resilient and with a floodgate slapped in.
>Kashtira shill
Kashtira is so bad that there's no downplayers just coping unplayers that got duped into crafting a telegraphed deck that dies to Droll/Nib
I lost to kashtira while resolving maxx c once. They went full combo with double shangri, fenrir, arise-heart. Didn't draw my DRNM, kurikara or one of my 3 edge-imp scythe.
>DRNM
>Kurikara
There's your problem anon
Play good handtraps like Droll and Nib instead
Wouldn't have mattered in that scenario because if those were droll and nib, I wouldn't have drawn them either way. Replacing DRNM with droll might be interesting for fluffals though just have to remember to not use them on my turn.
how am I shilling the deck? It's not even in store moron. Saying "people are massive morons downplaying the deck" doesn't mean I'm "shilling" the deck. I have all the pieces to make it, yet I'm playing Dragon Link and Vanquish Soul
You literally can't distinguish a bad Kash pilot to a good one
It's all the same telegraphed line
Fragile as frick endboard with like 2 telegraphed interruptions, I play a going second deck full of board breakers and it's pretty much impossible to lose to Kash unless I brick.
It's not bad by any means, but at least as Traptrix, Kashtira and Lab are the only beatable meta decks; while with others I might as well scoop.
>beating kash
>as traptrix
how do you do it? I basically have a 100% loss rate if I go second and as traptrix if I don't have nib.
Super Poly or Evenly; plus obviously generally having a strong hand to prevent them from flooding the board with their crap.
I don't have a positive win rate against them by any means but if it goes well, it tends to end with a win. Vs something like Branded or VS, even if it starts well, I usually end up running out of resources and they can rebuild.
Is there even a competitive waifu deck? I heard live twin sprights is apparently pretty good. Thoughts?
play ninja
Labrynth
No and that's a good thing
How viable is 41 cards? Will I enter brick city just from adding 1 more card?
Speaking of kash, I haven’t touched kashtira since pack release and never finished making it. All I need is one more unicorn BUT I need THREE theosis to complete it. should I just craft them and try the deck?
Something that confuses me about text wording, when a card says something like "when your opponent activates a spell/trap card OR effect, negate" I would assume it only negates spell/trap cards but the loose "or effect" leads me to believe it's an omninegate that works on any effect.
Konami makes the distinction between a spell/trap card and a spell/trap effect.
If you could only negate a spell/trap CARD you can only negate the activation of a continuous/field S/T being placed onto the field but not the opponent activating an effect on it after its already been placed.
everything is a learning experience, i had this in swordsoul when i was new i thought it negated monsters
mine was branded lost
it says the "activation" of cards and EFFECTS that fusion summon cant be negated
I thought this meant you couldnt use ash or imperm
it actually means the activation of a card OR the activation of the effect of a card
which somehow means you can negate the "effect" since its not negating the "activation"
>tfw playing VW, got roached so I just made shenshen chuche pass
>mathmech Black person immediately imperms shen, goes into linguriboh and combos his way into accesschud thinking linguriboh protects him from Chuche
>pop his chudie because Linguriboh only negates ACTIVATION of Trap Cards, and not EFFECTS of Trap that is already face up on the field
I was laughing my ass off at that Black person happily comboooing thinking he was safe behind his "trap negate".
for linguriboh to work against continuous traps it would have to say "or effect" after the "When your opponent activates a Trap Card" part?
yeah
Don't eat the radori!
BOY I LOVE IT WHEN MY OPPONENT IS A FLOO homosexual WHO SHOTGUNS SHIFTER AT THE START OF BOTH MY TURNS SO I LITERALLY CAN'T PLAY THE GAME

full power zoo could come back and would barely see any play
I expected them to at least work as a small package to make UDF, but I guess they don't clear Adventure
How many cards is the zoo udf package?
I'm not playing Zoo, but I think any one plus Chakratine makes it. However you likely want Drident as well if you draw both zoo normal and barrage, and with F0 and UDF that's 4-5 ED slots.
Adventure is probably just way better I guess.
4 of your ED slots, even more if you want Drident, which is why the whole thing was theory crafting fearmongering and no one in their right mind actually runs that shit.
Droll is way more cringe than maxx C, I have no idea why tcggays act like the roach is the ultimate fun killer when droll is just as or even more obnoxious
Droll can be played under in most cases and is far less wide spread. Maxx "C" shows up in 75% of games, 100% of deck builders, and forces you to choose one of two options which are usually both wrong either way. You're probably just playing dragon link.
>Droll can be played under in most cases
Droll can completely kill your ability to close out a game on turn 2 while maxx C imposes no actual restriction against you comboing into whatever half baked OTK board you need to win. Sure they may draw into another handtrap but it's far from a guarantee. Neither are exactly fun to play under but Droll is a literal floodgate
>unironically acting like dlink is the only deck that dies to Droll
Kash, VS, purrely, floo, r*nick, mannadium, spright and millions of innocent petdecks die to Droll. Dlink even gets to spheres handily just as it does under maxx c
You can also play around it by prioritizing what you search. Maxx c you just shoot like a Black person and it doesnt matter.
>days passed without seething about TCG
Also lmao complaining about Droll when you play a format that has Droll AND Maxx C.
That's the entire point moron, if Droll is legal and 70% of games are going to be decided by the handtrap mini game then maxx C has no reason to be banned
That's the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Let's add the most bullshit card back to the game because this other slightly less bullshit card exists. You deal with Droll with Crossout or some other negate and then some gay chains Maxx C, nice fricking game you've got there. Right now in TCG, if my deck is fricked by Droll I side Crossout and 1 Droll and that's that. Droll is barely even present in most formats unlike Maxx C which is eternal, dumb knuckle dragging gay.
average braindead tcgslurper
Most decks can't afford to run both Droll and the roach, resolving one makes the other dead in your hand, and in the situation you described maxx C still lets you play the fricking game. Droll is absolutely not absent in most formats, it's literally the premier handtrap when maxx C is banned. I deal with my opponent's first turn, he drops Droll on my first add on turn 2, now I'm dead in the water, nice fricking game. moron
>maxx C still lets you play the fricking game
Opinion fricking discarded
I know you have the mental capacity of a goldfish but yes Droll is not often played in TCG. Even when Drytron was popular it was barely played because every other deck barely gave a shit about it or it was straight up useless. It is popular right now at this moment as a side deck card but format to format for the past couple years it has barely been present even in side decks except the brief moment where SHS was legal and it was actually a main deck card. This nonsense that everyone is playing Droll in the main deck in TCG like Maxx C is just a fricking lie from people who don't play TCG. Plus if people are playing Droll that much sometimes you can take less greedy lines to play around it or do your searching in the DP. There is no intelligent counterplay to Maxx C, you just stop playing.
Yeah it's dumb when people compare Maxx C to other handtraps when it's the only one that straight up skips the turn of most decks aside from Shifter and Droll which are way more specific and the latter can be played around.
Ban Lancea
>Droll is barely even present in most formats unlike Maxx C
lol
Droll is aids but it's usually only in side decks and reserved for extra Black persony decks. If droll is main decked then it's a sign of a bad format. Maxx c is main decked is every format it's in therefore every format it's in is trash.

It just isn't the format for it.
Bros, I need a zombie deck, I bought the structure and I have no idea how to build this shit.
Don't do it Bystials are running rampant again
I'm going to do it. Playing Runick Naturia with one fountain just isn't fun.
I literally bought 10k gems to get vanquish soul and only got 4 vanquish soul ultra rares. Sure, I can craft most of the rest by using all of the material but why is this even allowed legally speaking? Technically I'm 30 dust short of having a complete deck too.
>why is this even allowed legally speaking
Because of some technicality that you are always "winning" something from your pull it gets around existing gambling laws.

am i supposed to play kash with VS or not? I have fenrir as a generic, elsewise im just playing heavy handtraps, even playing belle
You 100% play Fenrir and Riseheart. Riseheart is there so you can have an easily searchable fire in hand and Fenrir search Fenrir obviously gets you an Earth for free. I've seen people play VS with an extended Kashtira package with Unicorn, Theosis, and D Shifter but 2 Fenrir 1 Riseheart is mandatory imo. It's too fricking good.
>am i supposed to play kash with VS or not? the kashtiras are just pressured planet spell two fenrirs and a riseheart
>even playing belle
that's normal though you do play belle as long as kashtira and lab are present
I love Lab so much, stunapes kneel to the silver princess. Trap toolbox gives me an out to a lot of things
whaat was that first 2400 atk monster?
Walking floodgate
This dude spent so long comboing he had to skip his BP. Literally killed himself.
>Junk Warrior otk
Sovl.
He ended up making crusadia equimax pointing to it before ending his turn. A shame, I pretty much gave up at that point
sounds like he fricked himself over because equimax prevents the junk warrior from attacking and the maze field spell prevents the equimax from attacking
which deck allows me to have sex with laundry
>Opponent makes Baronne like half way through his turn
>Gets rid of it to keep comboing
>Ends on a weaker board than if he had just stopped there
Why are pendgays like this?
Never done a DC before, will it get more missions half way through like other events or should I grind out the ones I haven't finished now?
It gets a couple more missions, if you get to 20 there's a part 2 that unlocks in the last 4-5 days and that's where the real event starts.
Yeah. I'm at 20 but I'm only around half way done with the spell and play 50 games missions. I don't give a frick about round 2 since it doesn't have gem rewards.

WHAT DA DOG DOIN
Why does every single branded card have like 5 effects and they are all good?
because you are a gay man
Bros I just finished Dlink, what are some other fun decks? I've been thinking of zombies but apparently they suck dick, Unchained also looks cool but it's going to months until the new support arrives.
Learn how to play the decks you have
Should I build this or am I overlooking something
Shifter instead of Crow
looks good to me but i'll play just two jiaodong and i'll reduce or even remove imperms. i'd play only two small worlds so id reduce chance of bricking.
also a general rule of thumb assuming you are playing clean 40 is that you want a range of 8-10 for every reveal attribute, you are missing out on darks there
I haven't played in a while is Endymion's deck still usable?
its playable
just not that good considering kash and no terraforming
It's not bad but losing terraforming really hurt.
release my wife

How long until more branded support? Its been a few days.
>just hit 17 with birds
Slow and steady bros the real fight begins now
How do you cope with all the decks that just summon their stuff on defense? feels like it's pretty much just Mathmech that gets fricked by Empen right now.
The only deck that really fricks me is VS every other deck is easy to play around
I haven't played Floo in a long time but I don't see how you would deal with Branded fusion summoning everything in defense or all the synchro summons in defense outside of opening a floodgate like Harpie's.
>try to play gate guardian
>10 bricks in a row
>switch to kashtira
>10 game win streak
Man if you guys think kash is bricky play fricking gate guardian. At least with kash if you brick, its probably on handtraps.
for meta decks "brick" means "half of your engine is not one card starter"
>See people saying Unchained isn't going to be good in MD because it has long combos and Maxx-C fricks with that
>Dlink does well despite really longo combos
Seals pass is two or three special summons and is 90% of the power of the endboard.
Sphere pass is just that strong, dumb bawd.
d link can converge into a seals pass where unchained must commit
Unchained can summon him just as easily no? Probably not as good as spheres but still pretty gud
Spheres is an bounce that floats into anything you might want depending on the situation which can be another bounce to a search, to setting up a starter board for the next turn. This guy's the equivalent of a Baronne pass, and there's a reason no deck does that.
It is worse than baronne, it only deals cards that special summon a monster
It's not once per turn tho
Dlink have actual negates and can make seals in two special summon.
Unchained needs a shit load to have a good disruption.
Merrli is just too perfect.
I always thought she was holding her little lock in this pic. It took me a while to realize it was an invisible penis instead.
>seals pass is-
Better than one negate
it's really not
It really is though especially when it encourages your opponent to use their battle phase ensuring you survive. One negate vs a full hand is trash any way you frame it.
when are we getting centurion?
you mean centur-ion
Shut the frick up, Tewart
Play Gate Guardian
Is Brave Engine any good in Kashtira? I feel it'd be a useful way to get a consistent negate. Especially since Kashtira can forego the NS. What am I missing? Why isn't that more common?
yeah sure just remove Planet Pathfinder
It's not consistent
More consistent than Colossus who I see in more lists. The majority of your plays are going to lock you into Xyz.
Colossus is played in Galaxy Tomahawk builds he isn't played in the builds the lock into Xyz.
>water enchantress at 1
So... how's the Gate Guardian support? I want to roleplay as Card Majin from Forbidden Memories and Dark Duel Stories, but don't know if this new wave of support is worth it/makes the deck at all playable for the 1st time. It looks decent, at least on paper, but we all know that in practice things can be quite difference, has anyone splashed the cards yet? Or made a dedicated deck to it?
Jesus christ
I usually play at night which is full of cheating chinks
Playing during the day is just as bad with the fricking floodgate spics.
beats playing self destructive chink bots, at least you get to kind of play the game
>always, fricking ALWAYS draw my one-ofs that I don't ever want to draw in my opening hand
Just play two of them bro
Stoopid, just take out your one-ofs that you don't want to draw and put in one-ofs that you do want to draw. Like Branded Fusion. I see that fricker in half my hands now that it is limited.
Guys, I made Platinum rank today. o/
Good job all the tryhard Asians are in Duel Cup so enjoy a calm ranked

when are we getting centur-ion?
Within 6 months
Is Levianeer worth running? I dropped Atum for the second striker dragon and titanic galaxy for unicorn too. How do I improve this to make the stretch from DL17 to 20?
Why are you on 2 Seyfert your deck needs more lights, Seyfert even adds Levianeer
why the frick do you have meteor dragon without driver
Romulus effect can special summon it when you link Pisty into his arrow.
>baby red link striker, grab red metal darkness, banish striker special baby again, link into romulus and grab meteor
>grab rokket from ravine send router and special tracer
>link recharger into pisty, trgger romulus effect to special meteor into the field and use it for dis pater
It's a 1 card dis pater + borreelend but you can obviously make chaos ruler or borreload plus this based on other draws. I removed gamma because I was drawing those bricks too much lately.
Yeah I'm adding a third now. I was trying a 40 card version of this deck but forgot to add it back.
Is 2 striker really so good? Seems like pure cope to me. 90% of games end turn 1 or 2. Even Azalea seems like a better option for utility. Also, someone explain to me what Dillingerous Dragon is used for. I saw it today and it seemed like a good down arrow for Pisty.
I think so, personally but I really like him.
>2 of each baby dragons
holy gigachad
Wait, Dis Pater can be revived by regained? What the actual frick???
you guys play against dragonlink? why do i only see kashtira and mathmech

This theme goes hard, hot damn.
fr fr on god
md has very good music, it is a shame it goes by the opp field and not yours, i wish there was a field with the legend anthology bgm
Yeah its kinda dumb. I guess its nice to have different music most games, but I think it would make more sense for them to have it be your field.
If you get sick of it or just want a change, you can just buy a new field which makes sense from a business perspective.
But it is what it is.
The idea is probably making the opponent listen to your epic field theme thus both players are hearing eachother's themes but it doesn't make much sense in practice, making both players listen to the field theme of the player who won the coinflip makes much more sense.
Branded can do too many things now
I'm scared of what else they will add in season 2
how do you even make more support for it? the deck has an answer for practically everything
Is there a deck that uses its whole ED to summon one monster?
@Ignister uses its entire ED to summon 3 monsters now
Ignister can summon The Arrival which is a 6k towers that uses most of the extra deck in the process.
This is literally all mayakashi does.

is odd-eyes named because they are non-even eyes or they are weird eyes?
Different colors
Same colors as pend cards even!
It's because they have heterochromia, their eyes are the same color as the pend scales
The unbalancing is like the swaying of a pendulum [scales]
it's named that because it has heterochromia
Odd eyes in Japanese is used to refer to heterochromia. It's one of those terms that doesn't really translate well like Japanese having a word that means Phantom Thief

Wait, the thread is still up after 12 hours?
LMAO
Now I know when to play to avoid tryhard hours.
tryhard hours are chink hours
The best time to play is like 8 hours from now. You'll see more meta decks, but the players themselves are way worse so you have a pretty decent winrate going 2nd. Like 70% of the decks during chink time is stunshit and ftks. Its impossible to climb because every game is decided at the coin flip.
>go into ranked
>run into nothing but self destruction chink bots

Is there any way to transform mathmech into a more control focused deck? I really don't like going for accesscode or whatever every time. It seems like the standard ED is all just for that.
you mean aside from U Link Iblee lock?
I don't know what that is.
Damn. I do like cyberse conflict, but yeah, not a fan of the OTK playstyle. I guess I should've looked more into how it plays before I built it.
U Link, or Extra Link, is a mechanic where if you make a chain of co-linked Link monsters traveling from your Extra monster zone to your opponent's, you can also Link summon up into your opponent's Extra monster zone with another co-linked monster. This is typically done with a series of monsters in a U shape or V shape. Combine this with Iblee, which locks your opponent into only Link monsters, and your opponent won't be able to summon at all because their Extra monster zone is already full.
Not exactly, you can play cynet conflict cyberse but it's more of a go-first and make a board kind of gameplan.
Even Salamangreat, which is more of a midrange playstyle, has easy access to jammer+accesscode, it's just how cyberse is.
play codetalker and buy cheats from a chinese website and you'll get 120% wr each time you queue up
cyberse is supposed to be future yugioh so everything needs to end in 2 turns
I mean you can do the firewall darkfluid shit but accesscode is just too much of a dude.
Same issue salad has. You CAN do other stuff, its just never going to be as good as ungabunga accesscode. It needs ban.

The deck has no recursion or grind game so no
Yeah I've been noticing that. Coming from ninjas, the lack of recursion hurts.
Thanks. Not sure I wanna go that route though.
Look into Earth Machine if you're interested in a deck that can grind. The deck can literally play forever if it has to.
