Reminder that Josh Schmidt said Runick was "healthy for the game" because "it incentives interaction."
Remember that you're up against some Runick homosexuals sitting behind his floodgates doing absolutely nothing but stalling and milling you out.
Remember that Josh himself also played a floodgate in his Naturia Runick build.
There are people ITT who actually listen to that moron.
I find it funny that people who play the Runick engine always say things like "it's the stun cards that are the problem, Runick is balanced" to defend it meanwhile they all want to go full combo with the free Hugin body while going +3 off Fountain on both turns and then wonder why people hate it.
I don't personally dislike Josh but he obviously recognizes that the engine is broken and he has to downplay it so he can keep winning with it, the dishonesty is just a natural part of the competitive spirit.
>they all want to go full combo with the free Hugin body while going +3 off Fountain on both turns and then wonder why people hate it.
Runick combo is extremely extra deck intensive, so if the opponent has answers in their opening hand you are fricked.
Oh fricking please. I just fought one of those furhiregay spright variants that full combo’d and had 6 monsters on the field, fountain and 6 cards in hand.

That's at least 14 cards bro, if you resolve evenly their only wincon is sitting on fountain
>extremely extra deck intensive
Youre not even denying that Runick gives you absurd amounts of cards to use, which is the core of the Runick problem.
>if the opponent has answers in their opening hand you are fricked
Ah yes, the age old "If you draw the out, I lose. Therefore the deck isnt strong" bullshit that metaBlack folk keep spouting. You dont have the out more often than you do, and that doesnt stop Runick from adding an out to the out in their deck.

Pure Runick and Runick Stun have incredible grind by virtue of being able to use their ED to draw crards and protect backrow.
Runick Combo has surprisingly little grind and is relying on resolving Fountain turn 1 for the +3 draws. It is essentially a Pot of Desires or Nadir Servant turn 1, which is shit that other decks like Lab and Kashtira can do without the drawbacks of devoting 20% of your main deck and 30% of your Extra Deck to the Runick cards.
i'll never forget the stream he was so excited to play VS when it came out, got floodgated by runick like 3 games in row and had to defend this shit archetype after his own chat was shitting on it, that was kino
That's especially ironic considering that VS is an actual interactive deck. If his original statement held up, then you'd be having constant back and forth between both decks like a Tear mirror.
It's especially funny considering his hate boner for Tearlaments.
Nah he's not wrong. Runick is interactive, it's just annoying. You don't have to deepthroat Runick or blind hate on it to acknowledge that the spells are a toolbox that's healthy but also hold the opinion that banishing your cards before you can play them, getting deck knowledge turn 1, and endless chump blocking is also lame. The only moron here is you for equating the combo and control Runick variants with Runick Stun. Josh is also the champ for a reason, you're just a dumb goldstuck homosexual on Ganker who can't stop seething about him.
Nobody gives a frick about the mst and the chalice. It's the ridiculous draw power, deck destruction, and almost infinite free bodies. If something like Hornet Drones is limited then the entire engine should be rendered unplayable.
>You don't have to dick suck Josh >Proceeds to give him a sloppy online blowjob
Maybe finish wiping the cum off your lips before typing a post next time.
Ganker cannot stop seething about Josh, it is the funniest shit. How mad is this general going to be when he wins two MD Worlds in a row and accidentally wins another YCS later this year?
Schmidt is good at the game but he's also bad at being objective. He was smart enough to recognize how broken Runick was right from the start and realize that Spright was better at ranking than Tears, but he equates these meta calls with them being healthy for the game. They're not, they're another flavor of cancer.
It's not even that good of an archetype, it's usually what's paired with it that makes the respective deck good. Pure Runick and Runick Stun have only ever been effective as a blindside deck. You're just a shitter.
>Special Summons that count as Normal Summons,also on opponents turn. >Ends on a searchable body floodgate and another searchable omninegate >Tediously long for some fricking reason
The only one Lab even does of that is the 3rd one and its not as long as Floo does it

Moe-shit atheistic for zoophiles to make a girl make look like a dog as much as possible, eventually even adding animal features to break the bounderies.
It's corporate plant to artificially create furry degenerates with weak mentality consumerbase with no critical thoughts.
Additionally their are paired with dogshit low effort artists so the said corpos can pay them minimal wage. Most visas art looks like it was draw by teenage emo girl without any qyalification or outright Ai slop.
It's just scheme to not hire actually skilled artist in effort to save money. There is no appeal in it. Moeshit "artist" are unable to draw any facial features even if their life depended on it.
Lips, eyelids, bonechicks and any form of muscle mass is thier bane.
It simply pathetic. I just want well drawn art instead of this mass produced no effort Ai slop.

So the little brother of the 2-tribute normal DARK dragon-type monsters now has a retrain version leaving Serpent Night Dragon the only one without a retrain nor a new form to be part of an archetype (eg Tri-horned Dragon)
>Serpent Night Dragon
It could be retrained into a Chaos Starry Night monster for Starry Night I guess.
Konami has been reading my posts in social media since I pitched LoB - MR retrains for all the old vanilla monsters at the start of 2023.
funny, i've been nonstop posting about how crescent dragon was the forgotten little brother of the 2-tribute dark dragons and suddenly has a retrain, i wonder if konami reads these threads. not taking all the credit but just found the timing curious
how can toon be fixed? them being so dependable on toon world is just a big toll, would be great a toon monster that acts as a toon world while on the field
I don't think that's really what they need. The probably with toon in the modern game is that they have basically no interaction aside from briefcase and terror, and those are 1 shot interuptions that the theme doesn't have a way to recycle. Also searching trap cards like that takes away most of their effectiveness as surprises.
A boss monster with a more proactive effect would be good. hopefully not an omni negate or pop, but something that can screw up a turn and be thematic.
Alternatively a way to recycle their spell and traps and not lose a more drawn out resource game might be good.
On the other hand the deck has lots of sacky otk tools and since every toon is a direct attacker, the line between 'quirky pet deck' and 'annoying otk deck' is a bit thin.
would be great to have pendulum toon monsters that act as a concept of the hardcover of the book making all toon monster be their pages of content, these pend monster could act as toon world while being spells and protect themselves by sacrificing a toon on the field for the rest of the turn making an allusion of tearing up a page of the book
Drop the summoning sickness on new ones like Dark Magician Girl and BLS. I wouldn’t mind a toon monster with an effect that protects toon kingdom from being destroyed/banished. Such a cool concept from the anime that has never really fully come to fruition tbh.
Toon monsters that don't require Toon World to function. Like that's really it. The summoning sickness is dogshit and the hard requirement to have Toon World on the field for the majority of them is also dogshit. Their problem is that all their monsters are freaking dogshit.
One thing they could do? Toon Egyptian Gods. Maybe make them easier to summon if Toon World is on the field (return to the hand during each EP if Toon World isn't on the field?) but otherwise just make them searchable versions of the Egyptian Gods. No gay summoning sickness restrictions, no moronic "nuke me if toon world is destroyed" bullshit, just searchable Egyptian Gods. You'd be shocked as to how quickly they start running token generators.
there should be toons that can absorb the attack in exchange of discarding a card or reduce its ATK/DEF switch to defense position when attacked or switch with another toon monster from your hand or deck in exchange of their toon effect negated until the start of the 2nd turn, ways a cartoon behaves when threatened

>find crossout dead in so many matchups unless it connects onto maxx or ash >drop it >got to diamond I already
I think tcggays were right for once
it seems even nips are afraid of roach, one refused to ss and rather scooped while under it despite having the turn advantage
if your deck naturally plays around roach like tear, bystials, VS you don't need crossout, the card is basically only good against handtraps unlike cbtg
problem with this card is the TCG name, its name i believe to be Diamond Dragon which is supposed to be part of the archetype of gem dragons but all of them were renamed thanks to TCG or still not printed to this day
If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can add 1 Spell/Trap that mentions "Flame Swordsman" from your Deck to your hand.
If this card is sent to the GY: You can send 1 "Flame Swordsman", or 1 monster that mentions it from your Deck or Extra Deck to the GY, except "Fighting Flame Swordsman".
You can only use each effect of "Fighting Flame Swordsman" once per turn.
Fighting Flame Dragon | MZMI-XX005
FIRE Dragon Level 5 Fusion Effect Monster
1700 ATK / 1600 DEF
Materials: 1 Dragon monster + 1 FIRE Warrior monster
Except during the Damage Step (Quick Effect): You can target 1 Warrior Fusion Monster you control; equip this card from your field or GY to that monster you control as an Equip Spell. You can only use this effect of "Fighting Flame Dragon" once per turn.
While this card is equipped to "Flame Swordsman" or a monster that mentions it, the equipped monster gains 700 ATK and can make a second attack during each Battle Phase.
so basically you want to foolish burial new flame swordsman, dump flame dragon then use it as free equip every turn
too bad it doesn't support immortal phoenix gearfried
Probably the end goal will be to summon the new swordsman, who will search the fusion spell that lets you get out either the og flame sowrdsman or an unrevealed fusion retrain using the new swordsman as material, which triggers his effect to send the dragon.
>FFS >gets destroyed and trash a flame sowrdsman in name or mentioned (including fusions) >FFD >can work with generic warrior fusion >not a single effect of either to bring up OG flame swordsman

It's annoying because Endy would be much cheaper if it didn't have a 180 UR dust wall of chicken game and upstart goblin, both of which should honestly be SRs because no other deck outside of stun plays them.
true, tear/vs/lab/branded/dlink/dark magician/floo are all the same decks
the only TRVE interactive deck is kashtira because they can do shit only in response to your own shit
>reach master 3 months ago >drop to gold due to being too lazy to grind ranks
now i have to play vs boomers playing toon world and blue eyes for 2+ hours before I get to at least diamond again...
and that makes me wonder, what kind of deck do people playing in these low ranks fear the most? Some comboshit?
yes but why would you?
endy isn't really a deck that wants prolonged games and just goes all in on the first turn
they run into the void/chicken game/allure/desires which are all draw cards with instant gratifications
If you're familiar with fighting games, it's the same appeal Marvel vs Capcom had years ago before people realized how cancer Zero May Cry was. Compared to every other card game YGO is extremely fast paced and exciting.
For me personally, looking at other card games the lack of a mana system is definitely a plus. That paradigm has plagued CCGs for years and YGO is the only game that has really been successful without one. Also no set rotation, holy frick I love no set rotation. Old cards that used to be good or never were can just magically become the silver bullet in the meta out of the blue and it's so cool.
>Old cards that used to be good or never were can just magically become the silver bullet in the meta out of the blue and it's so cool.
This happens so rarely that it's not worth the artificial hype and powercreep but whatever
Black person it happens like every other format. Just recently in TCG and OCG Soul Release became a viable tech card. That shit is from 2004 and has barely seen any competitive play. Marionette Mite also came out of nowhere when Unchained became good, a 2007 card that I think saw play back in the day but not at all in the modern game. And people playing with the Hex Sealed shit for Dragoon in Branded. Even not so old cards that were shit all of a sudden are examples like Amblowhale which is 2019 because it works with Promethian Princess. I could keep going with this shit too if I wanted. You're not paying attention to the game if you think it is rare.
Soul Release is an exception because it could potentially become a staple as GY effects become more plentiful going forward,it's the closest card in the game to "Graveyard Breaker", although banishing face up is not ideal in the current age anyway.
Shit like Marionne Mite, Mushroom Man and Draco Equiste are situational memes though
>uuuhhhh that doesn't count
Nah frick off gay. You don't even understand why Soul Release is being played, it's not a card for general GY hate, it's a direct response to Fire Kings becoming meta. And on a tangent, absolutely nobody saw Fire Kings becoming the top dog of the meta because of the general Fire support and SD. And that's also why I love no set rotation, because the old Fire King cards also get to see play with the new ones instead of just making entirely new cards with the Fire King name.

They should print a new Void spell that's relevant to non-Infernoid decks so I can send Evil off Nadir Servant to search it. I fricking love Nadir Servant.
Modern Yu-Gi-Oh games at times feel like real-life shounen battle manga. The feints, recovery, OTKs and bosses are Pokemon/Jojo battles without protagonist plot armor.
Whereas in the older game it felt more like trying to recreate scenes or combos from the DM anime.
It's basically extreme two player solitaire with giant robots and dragons and shit. Unfortunately most games are decided as soon as they begin with one player never having a chance to win in the first place.
There is none.
People who decribe Nu-Gi-Oh! conviniantly describe cards which are +5yo, leaving out trashtitra, braindead, turdlaments out of the conversation.
If you like old ygo you can still play it.
Kash dies to basically any board breaker, but the best one (evenly) requires you to open followup to Arise, Maxx "C", Ash and possibly Nibiru
Needing 2 breakers to stop Kash is a taller order than Raigeki alone
birth limit, fenrir limit are like the best possible hits from both lists
kash has no recovery now and no negates, it's nothing more than just a souped up thunder dragon deck now
>can build a hybrid deck or use it as an engine with zoo, sneedroid, gate guardian, etc >still only encounter pure kash players because the only thing they want to do is summon a floodgate or zone lock
Is running 40 card Kash correct? It seems like every game I draw preparations or big bang. I removed Droll for Sacred Sword, second scareclaw and tearkash since it was doing jackshit most games. I almost wanna try a 45 card variant to see if I can avoid seeing those bricks.
>Chamber is Dragonmaid Circular.
If anything is Parlor since she sends maid cards to GY, except she doesnt special summons herself, nor the maid card in the GY. Also doesnt search spells if i summon another dragonmaid card. Not even a circular can save us.

It's always been a cancerous hyper going first card and is also way too flexible AND it fricking lingers as well. At least Crossout you have to make the conscious effort to build your deck with it in mind beyond the fricking roach. Called By is just play the turn for fricking free, the card.
Pretty much. People feel compelled to defend called because it's another Maxx C out in your deck, but the card is inherently way too powerful. Not only does it shut down a card for two turns, it's just insanely flexible in general.
I hate to defend Maxx C in any way shape or form but I've had more games turned into non-games by Called By. Things would be so much better if they were just both fricking gone and Crossout was at 3 or maybe even that being gone would be fine too.

Crossout should stay at 1 forever, having your opponent be able to crossout your crossout or vice versa is pure cancer.

It's moronic yes, but Crossout itself is a much weaker and more situational card than called
Most meta decks interct with the GY so called is both an anti-hantrap and anti-GY card, while crossout is specifically anti handtrap or in rare cases anti board breaker.
I use it to unbrick myself in Thunder Dragons, but that is still a cope use for it and it happens like once every 50 games

>while crossout is specifically anti handtrap or in rare cases anti board breaker
Something I actually like about Crossout is you can get creative if your matchup is really bad and side in an opponent's engine piece if you're really assmad at that deck and can afford to run what is essentially a hard brick. Much less viable in MD than TCG where that's actually worth doing where it is at 3, and the whole Crossout for Crossout situation just doesn't happen in an environment where Maxx wiener doesn't exist because Crossout (and even Called By) is less effective than just running cards that actually plus you if the opponent doesn't have the handtrap for it that you can use ahead of your main engine. Crossout without Maxx C is really such a niche scalpel kind of card.
D Shifter isn't even that good. Its dead vs VS and Kash, Branded and D Link can still put out a decent board through it. It really only kills pet decks.
>opponent dshifters if you go 1st >lab sets pass and plays during your turn anyway just to avoid being otkd >opponent dshifts during his turn 1 >lab sets 5 passes and plays normally during t3
Literally does nothing. I've seen it happen.
>Branded and D Link can still put out a decent board through it
If they open the godhand for it maybe but it's killing their turn and winning you the game like at least 70% of the time against both of them and even if they do play through it, they both need the GY for their grind game so that's still something.
You got dick downed by based Branded decks and now you're convinced they can't whiff and every Branded pilot is Atem and they're drawing exactly what they need every time.

I see a lot of lists running Cactus Bouncer nowadays but seems kind of bad since it's usually dead unless you open Dai, I know it's pretty strong when you do get to summon it but it just doesn't seem worth the deck space for me.
Also I don't see why so many lists dont run the 3 cards Therions package, yeah Regulus in hand sucks but even when locked into plants Lily works as a free extender body unless you really bricked.
Run in 53% of Rikka Sunavalon lists apparently, you can search it and just NS it assuming you can combo without using up your NS by starting with something like Unexpected Dai.
Oops you opened Discolosseum, Snowdrop, and Regulus again
I know that feel but any plant NS to link off into Disc search Lily and that's at least 2 plants for a copium Dancepione or just Lily send herself to summon the Regulus, Disc/Lily aren't even real bricks whereas Cactus Bouncer is 100% a brick if you need to Normal Summon.
Losing Chaos Ruler sucks, but in reality Bystial Synchro doesn't actually die because Assault Synchron was meant to combo with other Blackwing cards like Darkrage
As long as Lubellion is at 3, you can still do the moronic combos without more deck dedication, it's just more linear.
TCG players are insanely conceited and convinced they have some kind of data tracking system that's more up-to-date and accurate vs. Master Duel's, so they've come to various irrational conclusions about which cards are "Problems" or "too strong". Hence, pic related. Straight up room temperature I.Q. bans.
Anon you don't understand, it DRAWS a CARD
This is so ridiculously OP that it must remain at 0 forever.
Same with Chicken Game, a card that strikes fear into the heart of every TCG player
Imagine if they applied consistent logic across the board, like "what if this fricking card might be broken because it's strictly better than pot of greed and graceful charity?!"
I don't play TCG you obsessed schizo. I'm glad your homosexual ass failed excuse of a summoning mechanic gets shit on in every format anyway, either because of Maxx "C" or outright banning your degenerate bullshit.

I accept your concession, now if you are a good pup and reply again I'll even let you have the last word.
All he had to do was run me over with his lower level monsters but he couldn't resist COOMBOOing. He banished his whole to deck to try to out me with kemono girl but it was too fricking late.
Did Konami shill Branded so hard they're afraid of nerfing it? Deck has basically received the least nerfs out of any meta deck for the past year and a half.
It's only very recently that it became 'meta'. It's been hovering around T3-ish for the longest time before this. It just gets new fricking cards every other month it feels like
You mean to say swordsoul. The only hit it ever got was semi longyuan. And even then he's going to be at 3. Did they hit the floodgate part that made it good? Branded has received five waves of hits at this point.
Crazy that Protos is still free, calling dark is FTK against 90% of decks and the only time I remember winning against a Protos resolving is on Mikanko.
Probably because, as much as I think floodgates, especially lingering floodgates, shouldn't be a thing, Protos isn't actually being much of a problem. Yes, Protos is a bonkers card that's surprisingly low-investment. You still don't see Swordsoul topping much.
I'm too lazy to chase after irl manko. I don't want to deal with bawds, and romantic girls like seeing men chase after them because it shows they really want to be with them. I'm too proud for that.
Prefer to wreck the ygo md ladder.
Maybe I might be.
I have an unnatural amount of bad luck in this game. Like, 2 days ago I was playing spright bystial, Maxx C'd my opp on t3, he went for the kill as mathmech.
I needed exactly 1 bystial, of which I run 8 in my deck, to survive the swing. Drew like 9 cards but not a single bystial. This is one of a mountain of misfortune overdose examples I have.
That's how unlucky I am.
I have bad luck streaks but in all my time playing MD (doing either the Gold>Plat or Plat>Diamond grind depending on the current meta) I've never experienced this omni-present stun shit that some people talk about
It's pretty annoying that with this, the funny z-arc trap, and maybe something else, it really limits what hand traps you can play. Cards like called by might not have a spot to play.
My humble fossil petdeck needs it.
But really, probably because they think it's okay just limiting Boarder and the other floodgates. They're wrong, but whatever.

Trick clown, electromagnetic turtle, lightsworn summons, tear extenders, thunder collossus of of nemeses engine after banishing shit with snow or bystials. Go look at the rank 32 overall deck on HIS website to see that degen deck people started copying and mill maxing.
I don't see what your point is, these mill slop decks will always exist but it's not like you need PUNKS to do any of this stuff and it's significally worse if you are not making Chaos Ruler with them.

I made it to M1 with it last season so I would say it's still fairly decent, another consistency hit sucks but it's not like having 1 less pot changes your gameplan or anything.
Here's the list I've been running although you can definitely cut down on the number of tribute summon birds since most people don't play this many, Unexplored winds is also commonly played at 1 and you can include some extra consistency cards like Gold sarc if you want to.

6 cards? He's about to draw 1 more from Jialong and 1 more from Borger. He also gets a pop from Ceasar and Razen so enjoy playing through that interaction line plus whatever the frick the other 6 cards are.
I don't know how the frick they think that shit is anything but one of the best decks in the game its so fricking hard to interact with, then they start playing into your board and guess what I'm going to draw into kurikara so don't use any effects if you don't want to get FTK'd this turn and if you don't I'll just burn you for the rest anyway
At least Branded runs out of cards after a full turn. VSBlack folk legit go +4 on a normal turn.

Then they can go ahead and draw more shit every turn. Drolling or Maxx Cing them does nothing because they will do whatever the frick they were going to do during your turn as well.
the only problem cards in VS is snow devil, because for similar resons to Branded it requires you to run HFD alongside evenly (which otherwise kills VS)
Borger is the problem, tags out to dodge shit. Draws every turn or burns you for 1500 every turn. Drawing every turn when the deck runs the non engine shit it does and just needs different attributes in hand is fricked. Snow devil is very good too though
VS can't play if they don't have names on the field and Snow Devil is what keeps names on the field after an evenly. There are also no hand traps that stop special summoning from the hand or banish (like Tri Brigade Revolt) which makes it hard to stop unlike say kaijus or droplet on Rock
Add that to Snow Devil's burn and VS just becomes another trickstar deck with borger which is degnerate as frick
This game has gotten so bad >more and more bait israelite bundles with ‘limited’ cosmetics >every new deck is all URs >banlists tailored to never hit URs >ocg philosophy of making everything inconsistent slop piles >maxx c still legal ruining deckbuilding
but i have trouble doing that
rod can only search for one thing and usually gets negated
soul servant requires dm on the field or gy
so you have two searches which for either dark magical circle or magicians salvation to get eternal soul
then you need a fusion on top of that
so either you got have some of those things in your hand which doesnt happen all the time or you have to just settle for only part of the setup.
even more so when you run bystials and hand traps
but without bystials dm is even weaker it feels
Most of it is relics of the past at this point designed to make it fit with older cards.
A few cards don't give a frick, like Crystal God Tistina or Egyptian God Slime.
Vaylantz does have their own boss monster that works as an actual interruption but every time I see the deck it's just being used to combo into a degenerate lockdown with Pachy or something.
It's not. It's bad for the game, but the game is all about making things that are bad for it to correct other things that are bad for it and then making even more bad things to fix those.
Stay tuned for Final C.
1, because it's hot and so is she
2, because even though proportionally she actually has C-cup breasts according to JP autists measuring Big Welcome and her art ref sheet, her initial card art legitimately makes her breasts look much, much larger simply because she's arching her back and puffing out her chest to look tough, because she's a dork.
Also forgot to mention the outer flap of her dress's chest makes it look like her boob is the size of her head on the art for Lovely Lab's actual card.

>alien shit like runick plunder patroll, gay shit
>any combination of the above, gay shit
runick is a disgusting homosexual archetype of which the main gameplan is to annoy the opponent to death and wastes the time of every party involved.
Runick is the type of deck people who unironically defended Mystic Mine would pilot.
>But I do not have a MP2 so it requires skill :^)
But Mystic Mine is fair, runick is indefensible cancer.
dont forget rngshit, randomly banishing important cards because ayy lmao and hugin protecting entire backrow from hfd becuse it just has to okay
I find it funny that people who play the Runick engine always say things like "it's the stun cards that are the problem, Runick is balanced" to defend it meanwhile they all want to go full combo with the free Hugin body while going +3 off Fountain on both turns and then wonder why people hate it.
I don't personally dislike Josh but he obviously recognizes that the engine is broken and he has to downplay it so he can keep winning with it, the dishonesty is just a natural part of the competitive spirit.
>they all want to go full combo with the free Hugin body while going +3 off Fountain on both turns and then wonder why people hate it.
Runick combo is extremely extra deck intensive, so if the opponent has answers in their opening hand you are fricked.
Oh fricking please. I just fought one of those furhiregay spright variants that full combo’d and had 6 monsters on the field, fountain and 6 cards in hand.
It's extra deck intensive bro what of they ash your hugin bro
>x3 hugin
>x2 geri
>x1 munin
>x2 elf
>x2 gigantic
>x1 sprind
>x1 IP
>x2 folgo
That's at least 14 cards bro, if you resolve evenly their only wincon is sitting on fountain
>extremely extra deck intensive
Youre not even denying that Runick gives you absurd amounts of cards to use, which is the core of the Runick problem.
>if the opponent has answers in their opening hand you are fricked
Ah yes, the age old "If you draw the out, I lose. Therefore the deck isnt strong" bullshit that metaBlack folk keep spouting. You dont have the out more often than you do, and that doesnt stop Runick from adding an out to the out in their deck.
>Youre not even denying that Runick gives you absurd amounts of cards to use, which is the core of the Runick problem.
Pure Runick and Runick Stun have incredible grind by virtue of being able to use their ED to draw crards and protect backrow.
Runick Combo has surprisingly little grind and is relying on resolving Fountain turn 1 for the +3 draws. It is essentially a Pot of Desires or Nadir Servant turn 1, which is shit that other decks like Lab and Kashtira can do without the drawbacks of devoting 20% of your main deck and 30% of your Extra Deck to the Runick cards.
Yeah runick is beyond broken if you know what are you doing
The non-stun variants are way better then stun
Shut up, Josh
Mill shit is never based.
Let's change the Runick effects, instead of banishing, they send to grave. How you like your shitty "based" deck now, huh, moron?
Agreed. Let's ban Tears, Kashtira, Lightworn and other mill cards while we're at it.
Reminder that Josh Schmidt said Runick was "healthy for the game" because "it incentives interaction."
Remember that you're up against some Runick homosexuals sitting behind his floodgates doing absolutely nothing but stalling and milling you out.
Remember that Josh himself also played a floodgate in his Naturia Runick build.
There are people ITT who actually listen to that moron.
If it takes someone to be a moron to be WORLD CHAMPION, then I'll gladly be a moron.
A World Champion at Yu-Gi-Oh. With no cash prizes. Yeah, only someone truly moronic would dedicate their life to going pro for such a game.
i'll never forget the stream he was so excited to play VS when it came out, got floodgated by runick like 3 games in row and had to defend this shit archetype after his own chat was shitting on it, that was kino
That's especially ironic considering that VS is an actual interactive deck. If his original statement held up, then you'd be having constant back and forth between both decks like a Tear mirror.
It's especially funny considering his hate boner for Tearlaments.
Nah he's not wrong. Runick is interactive, it's just annoying. You don't have to deepthroat Runick or blind hate on it to acknowledge that the spells are a toolbox that's healthy but also hold the opinion that banishing your cards before you can play them, getting deck knowledge turn 1, and endless chump blocking is also lame. The only moron here is you for equating the combo and control Runick variants with Runick Stun. Josh is also the champ for a reason, you're just a dumb goldstuck homosexual on Ganker who can't stop seething about him.
Nobody gives a frick about the mst and the chalice. It's the ridiculous draw power, deck destruction, and almost infinite free bodies. If something like Hornet Drones is limited then the entire engine should be rendered unplayable.
>You don't have to dick suck Josh
>Proceeds to give him a sloppy online blowjob
Maybe finish wiping the cum off your lips before typing a post next time.
Ganker cannot stop seething about Josh, it is the funniest shit. How mad is this general going to be when he wins two MD Worlds in a row and accidentally wins another YCS later this year?
it's a normal behaviour for failures to seethe at successful people
Schmidt is good at the game but he's also bad at being objective. He was smart enough to recognize how broken Runick was right from the start and realize that Spright was better at ranking than Tears, but he equates these meta calls with them being healthy for the game. They're not, they're another flavor of cancer.
my deck = honest and skill-based
other deck = troony deck
It's not even that good of an archetype, it's usually what's paired with it that makes the respective deck good. Pure Runick and Runick Stun have only ever been effective as a blindside deck. You're just a shitter.
This. Ignore you lying eyes and memory. Runick sucks and all the hits they've got are totally unjustified.
Ooo, that's a tough one Anon. There are some notable runner-ups.
>Special Summons that count as Normal Summons,also on opponents turn.
>Ends on a searchable body floodgate and another searchable omninegate

He's a homosexual, so the idea of beautiful women makes him feel anger.
Moe-shit atheistic for zoophiles to make a girl make look like a dog as much as possible, eventually even adding animal features to break the bounderies.
It's corporate plant to artificially create furry degenerates with weak mentality consumerbase with no critical thoughts.
Additionally their are paired with dogshit low effort artists so the said corpos can pay them minimal wage. Most visas art looks like it was draw by teenage emo girl without any qyalification or outright Ai slop.
It's just scheme to not hire actually skilled artist in effort to save money. There is no appeal in it. Moeshit "artist" are unable to draw any facial features even if their life depended on it.
Lips, eyelids, bonechicks and any form of muscle mass is thier bane.
It simply pathetic. I just want well drawn art instead of this mass produced no effort Ai slop.
It's not hard.

So the little brother of the 2-tribute normal DARK dragon-type monsters now has a retrain version leaving Serpent Night Dragon the only one without a retrain nor a new form to be part of an archetype (eg Tri-horned Dragon)
>Serpent Night Dragon
probably retrained as starry knight member (starry knight nemesis or something) because it is related to seiyaryu
>Serpent Night Dragon
It could be retrained into a Chaos Starry Night monster for Starry Night I guess.
Konami has been reading my posts in social media since I pitched LoB - MR retrains for all the old vanilla monsters at the start of 2023.
Now please can we have F.A. support?
funny, i've been nonstop posting about how crescent dragon was the forgotten little brother of the 2-tribute dark dragons and suddenly has a retrain, i wonder if konami reads these threads. not taking all the credit but just found the timing curious
Get me a new set of toon cards then and some new relinquished ritual spell that makes him unaffected by other cards.
how can toon be fixed? them being so dependable on toon world is just a big toll, would be great a toon monster that acts as a toon world while on the field
make a toon world that work from gy
I don't think that's really what they need. The probably with toon in the modern game is that they have basically no interaction aside from briefcase and terror, and those are 1 shot interuptions that the theme doesn't have a way to recycle. Also searching trap cards like that takes away most of their effectiveness as surprises.
A boss monster with a more proactive effect would be good. hopefully not an omni negate or pop, but something that can screw up a turn and be thematic.
Alternatively a way to recycle their spell and traps and not lose a more drawn out resource game might be good.
On the other hand the deck has lots of sacky otk tools and since every toon is a direct attacker, the line between 'quirky pet deck' and 'annoying otk deck' is a bit thin.
would be great to have pendulum toon monsters that act as a concept of the hardcover of the book making all toon monster be their pages of content, these pend monster could act as toon world while being spells and protect themselves by sacrificing a toon on the field for the rest of the turn making an allusion of tearing up a page of the book
Drop the summoning sickness on new ones like Dark Magician Girl and BLS. I wouldn’t mind a toon monster with an effect that protects toon kingdom from being destroyed/banished. Such a cool concept from the anime that has never really fully come to fruition tbh.
Toon monsters that don't require Toon World to function. Like that's really it. The summoning sickness is dogshit and the hard requirement to have Toon World on the field for the majority of them is also dogshit. Their problem is that all their monsters are freaking dogshit.
One thing they could do? Toon Egyptian Gods. Maybe make them easier to summon if Toon World is on the field (return to the hand during each EP if Toon World isn't on the field?) but otherwise just make them searchable versions of the Egyptian Gods. No gay summoning sickness restrictions, no moronic "nuke me if toon world is destroyed" bullshit, just searchable Egyptian Gods. You'd be shocked as to how quickly they start running token generators.
Toons need summoning sickness otherwise they can OTK with near 100% certainty. You can try to make them good, but that needs to stay.
> I’ve never played toons
Good, you shouldn't because they suck.
Well for one, toons should have better theming than simply attacking directly. The toon effects should mock or make fun of the original somehow.
there should be toons that can absorb the attack in exchange of discarding a card or reduce its ATK/DEF switch to defense position when attacked or switch with another toon monster from your hand or deck in exchange of their toon effect negated until the start of the 2nd turn, ways a cartoon behaves when threatened
Toon Retrains and toons that gain extra benefits from toon world being on the field rather than NEEDING it to do anything
>Naturia Barkion
Dust or keep?
dust
>keep
There is always going to be that one deck that can summon it 4Free and shits on Labrynth and Stun.
Why doesn't Solemn Judgment stop turns anymore?
Because there are a lot of extenders.
Because it’s a dead card 50% of the time.

>find crossout dead in so many matchups unless it connects onto maxx or ash
>drop it
>got to diamond I already
I think tcggays were right for once
it seems even nips are afraid of roach, one refused to ss and rather scooped while under it despite having the turn advantage
if your deck naturally plays around roach like tear, bystials, VS you don't need crossout, the card is basically only good against handtraps unlike cbtg
I've dropped crossout since tear meta
Why was braindead never a thing in the paper?
homie what, it was the best deck of the formats before POTE raped the game with spright
You didn't fricking play paper when it came out
branded downplayers everyone
K
bunny year is over, time for the dragons
When will he get a retrain?
problem with this card is the TCG name, its name i believe to be Diamond Dragon which is supposed to be part of the archetype of gem dragons but all of them were renamed thanks to TCG or still not printed to this day
>Hyozanryu = Diamond Dragon
>Luster Dragon (now #2) = Emerald Dragon
>Luster Dragon = Sapphire Dragon
> Ruby Dragon (anime-only card)
>Diamond Head Dragon (anime-only card)
Konami needs to pick these dragons, retrain them and make them (the retrain versions) belong to an archetype
its a double wammy since hyozanryu was also incorperated into the 'geddon' theme as intended target for carbongeddon.
is flame swordsman and it's dragon is the only TCG exclusive?
Yes
Fighting Flame Swordsman | MZMI-XX001
FIRE Warrior Level 4 Effect Monster
1800 ATK / 1600 DEF
If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can add 1 Spell/Trap that mentions "Flame Swordsman" from your Deck to your hand.
If this card is sent to the GY: You can send 1 "Flame Swordsman", or 1 monster that mentions it from your Deck or Extra Deck to the GY, except "Fighting Flame Swordsman".
You can only use each effect of "Fighting Flame Swordsman" once per turn.
Fighting Flame Dragon | MZMI-XX005
FIRE Dragon Level 5 Fusion Effect Monster
1700 ATK / 1600 DEF
Materials: 1 Dragon monster + 1 FIRE Warrior monster
Except during the Damage Step (Quick Effect): You can target 1 Warrior Fusion Monster you control; equip this card from your field or GY to that monster you control as an Equip Spell. You can only use this effect of "Fighting Flame Dragon" once per turn.
While this card is equipped to "Flame Swordsman" or a monster that mentions it, the equipped monster gains 700 ATK and can make a second attack during each Battle Phase.
so basically you want to foolish burial new flame swordsman, dump flame dragon then use it as free equip every turn
too bad it doesn't support immortal phoenix gearfried
Probably the end goal will be to summon the new swordsman, who will search the fusion spell that lets you get out either the og flame sowrdsman or an unrevealed fusion retrain using the new swordsman as material, which triggers his effect to send the dragon.
>FFS
>gets destroyed and trash a flame sowrdsman in name or mentioned (including fusions)
>FFD
>can work with generic warrior fusion
>not a single effect of either to bring up OG flame swordsman
>new flame swordsman
>no longer a fusion
>level 4
it's gonna be shit, right?

>Cant be equipped by Flame Dragon
The future looking grim, Blue Flameswordmanbro...
Can't they just retrain Junk warrior at this point?
no because he is spright support

Endymion is better but also way more expensive.
It's annoying because Endy would be much cheaper if it didn't have a 180 UR dust wall of chicken game and upstart goblin, both of which should honestly be SRs because no other deck outside of stun plays them.

Could this work in an endymion deck?
yes but why would you?
endy isn't really a deck that wants prolonged games and just goes all in on the first turn
they run into the void/chicken game/allure/desires which are all draw cards with instant gratifications
Endymion is a combo deck, like all Pendulum decks, moron.

Give me a quick rundown on the appeal of modern Yu-Gi-Oh. Not looking to flame, I'm just curious.
Making your opponent as miserable as possible by breaking the game's fundamental rules.
You draw the cards and then you play the cards and then you play more cards and draw more cards.
I like playing 250,000 cards per turn, I tried magic and it's a snoozefest
If you're familiar with fighting games, it's the same appeal Marvel vs Capcom had years ago before people realized how cancer Zero May Cry was. Compared to every other card game YGO is extremely fast paced and exciting.
For me personally, looking at other card games the lack of a mana system is definitely a plus. That paradigm has plagued CCGs for years and YGO is the only game that has really been successful without one. Also no set rotation, holy frick I love no set rotation. Old cards that used to be good or never were can just magically become the silver bullet in the meta out of the blue and it's so cool.
You hit the nail on the head. Set rotations burned me out of other digital TCG.
>Old cards that used to be good or never were can just magically become the silver bullet in the meta out of the blue and it's so cool.
This happens so rarely that it's not worth the artificial hype and powercreep but whatever
It happens all the time Black person like 10 old cards were hit in the last year because new cards broke them.
Black person it happens like every other format. Just recently in TCG and OCG Soul Release became a viable tech card. That shit is from 2004 and has barely seen any competitive play. Marionette Mite also came out of nowhere when Unchained became good, a 2007 card that I think saw play back in the day but not at all in the modern game. And people playing with the Hex Sealed shit for Dragoon in Branded. Even not so old cards that were shit all of a sudden are examples like Amblowhale which is 2019 because it works with Promethian Princess. I could keep going with this shit too if I wanted. You're not paying attention to the game if you think it is rare.
Soul Release is an exception because it could potentially become a staple as GY effects become more plentiful going forward,it's the closest card in the game to "Graveyard Breaker", although banishing face up is not ideal in the current age anyway.
Shit like Marionne Mite, Mushroom Man and Draco Equiste are situational memes though
>uuuhhhh that doesn't count
Nah frick off gay. You don't even understand why Soul Release is being played, it's not a card for general GY hate, it's a direct response to Fire Kings becoming meta. And on a tangent, absolutely nobody saw Fire Kings becoming the top dog of the meta because of the general Fire support and SD. And that's also why I love no set rotation, because the old Fire King cards also get to see play with the new ones instead of just making entirely new cards with the Fire King name.
>it's not a card for general GY hate, it's a direct response to Fire Kings becoming meta.
>it's not a card for general Special Summon hate, it's a direct response to Dragon Rulers becoming meta.
We said the same shit about Maxx "C" and, Soul Release is gaining new recognition as a board breaker because of the current meta
You know that 2 of the best decks in the current paper meta are 10+ years old right?

It's still exactly that, it's just better at it now
evil isnt luck though, you get to guaranteed mill all 11 noids to the grave now. Previously you had to flip the reasoning gate casino to play the deck.
no IF in Master Duel though sadly so we won't get to play with it
They should print a new Void spell that's relevant to non-Infernoid decks so I can send Evil off Nadir Servant to search it. I fricking love Nadir Servant.

It makes me feel like an anime protag
Modern Yu-Gi-Oh games at times feel like real-life shounen battle manga. The feints, recovery, OTKs and bosses are Pokemon/Jojo battles without protagonist plot armor.
Whereas in the older game it felt more like trying to recreate scenes or combos from the DM anime.
It's basically extreme two player solitaire with giant robots and dragons and shit. Unfortunately most games are decided as soon as they begin with one player never having a chance to win in the first place.
Modern feels like a fighting game to me, it's like I'm constantly being checked by the game. I like that feel.
There is none.
People who decribe Nu-Gi-Oh! conviniantly describe cards which are +5yo, leaving out trashtitra, braindead, turdlaments out of the conversation.

Kash dominates lower ranks, and it's likely gonna stay that way until all the cards are permabanned
Plat IV so all of us ex diamonds seem to be spamming Kash.
Congrats on the free wins bro.
Kash dies to basically any board breaker, but the best one (evenly) requires you to open followup to Arise, Maxx "C", Ash and possibly Nibiru
Needing 2 breakers to stop Kash is a taller order than Raigeki alone
>kashgay topdecks birth and rebuilds his entire board

Unicorn is a dumb card and Birth being able summon Unicorn from anywhere is also dumb.
Blue Eyes deserves to be meta again
Is running 40 card Kash correct? It seems like every game I draw preparations or big bang. I removed Droll for Sacred Sword, second scareclaw and tearkash since it was doing jackshit most games. I almost wanna try a 45 card variant to see if I can avoid seeing those bricks.
Unicorn is Kashtira Circular. Normal sunseed is Plant Circular. Chamber is Dragonmaid Circular.
>Chamber is Dragonmaid Circular.
If anything is Parlor since she sends maid cards to GY, except she doesnt special summons herself, nor the maid card in the GY. Also doesnt search spells if i summon another dragonmaid card. Not even a circular can save us.
Imagine how good Swordsoul Dragon Rulers would be if Swordsoul was real dragons instead of chinese dragons. That shit would be crazy.
>Imagine how good Swordsoul [insert any dragon deck] would be if Swordsoul was real dragons instead of chinese dragons.
It would literally be perfect synergy with the tenyi levels and the swordsoul attributes. Eat a dick.
Swordsoul would only make the deck die to a single imperm
Stop seething about Swordsoul
swordshit is such a cringy deck

Roach to 2.
Ash to 2.
Dshifter to 1.
Called by to 3.
Crossout to 3.
I fixed your dumbass game.
You're an idiot and you probably work for konami
Name a single flaw in my list.
Every single thing you listed is a flaw
Called is fricking worse for the game than Maxx C. And that's saying a lot.
>Called is bad now
The perfect bait to start my day. Thx anon
You're an idiot
Explain why Called is bad then
Because Maxx c counter
>now
It's always been a cancerous hyper going first card and is also way too flexible AND it fricking lingers as well. At least Crossout you have to make the conscious effort to build your deck with it in mind beyond the fricking roach. Called By is just play the turn for fricking free, the card.
Pretty much. People feel compelled to defend called because it's another Maxx C out in your deck, but the card is inherently way too powerful. Not only does it shut down a card for two turns, it's just insanely flexible in general.
I hate to defend Maxx C in any way shape or form but I've had more games turned into non-games by Called By. Things would be so much better if they were just both fricking gone and Crossout was at 3 or maybe even that being gone would be fine too.
In general, there's a lot that needs to be culled. Problem is we'd need to ban other cards to compensate, and that's too much work for a humble pachinko company like konami.
Crossout should stay at 1 forever, having your opponent be able to crossout your crossout or vice versa is pure cancer.
It's moronic yes, but Crossout itself is a much weaker and more situational card than called
Most meta decks interct with the GY so called is both an anti-hantrap and anti-GY card, while crossout is specifically anti handtrap or in rare cases anti board breaker.
I use it to unbrick myself in Thunder Dragons, but that is still a cope use for it and it happens like once every 50 games
>while crossout is specifically anti handtrap or in rare cases anti board breaker
Something I actually like about Crossout is you can get creative if your matchup is really bad and side in an opponent's engine piece if you're really assmad at that deck and can afford to run what is essentially a hard brick. Much less viable in MD than TCG where that's actually worth doing where it is at 3, and the whole Crossout for Crossout situation just doesn't happen in an environment where Maxx wiener doesn't exist because Crossout (and even Called By) is less effective than just running cards that actually plus you if the opponent doesn't have the handtrap for it that you can use ahead of your main engine. Crossout without Maxx C is really such a niche scalpel kind of card.
>Called is fricking worse for the game than Maxx C.
Trading 1 for 1 is unhealthy apparently lel.
D Shifter isn't even that good. Its dead vs VS and Kash, Branded and D Link can still put out a decent board through it. It really only kills pet decks.
>kills every single deck except maybe 2 decks
shifter should be banned
It does frick all in this meta. I've been winning a lot more after I cut it.
Kash, VS, Floo and Lab all can play through it. They're coincidentally all honest petdecks according to Ganker
lab needs the GY to actually win
>big welcome
>furniture loops
>opponent dshifters if you go 1st
>lab sets pass and plays during your turn anyway just to avoid being otkd
>opponent dshifts during his turn 1
>lab sets 5 passes and plays normally during t3
Literally does nothing. I've seen it happen.
>Branded and D Link can still put out a decent board through it
If they open the godhand for it maybe but it's killing their turn and winning you the game like at least 70% of the time against both of them and even if they do play through it, they both need the GY for their grind game so that's still something.
60 card piles always open the god hand anon.
You got dick downed by based Branded decks and now you're convinced they can't whiff and every Branded pilot is Atem and they're drawing exactly what they need every time.
Branded can't put up any board. Oh no is that a single rindbrumm?
Dlink best case ends on seals
Both decks get absolutely crippled by shifter
given how much asshurt these cards make they should be all at 3 or 0

white relic sex
I see a lot of lists running Cactus Bouncer nowadays but seems kind of bad since it's usually dead unless you open Dai, I know it's pretty strong when you do get to summon it but it just doesn't seem worth the deck space for me.
Also I don't see why so many lists dont run the 3 cards Therions package, yeah Regulus in hand sucks but even when locked into plants Lily works as a free extender body unless you really bricked.
Jowgen bros.. the houseplants are making fun of us again...
What's this used in? Some kind of plant deck that doesn't need to SS?
Run in 53% of Rikka Sunavalon lists apparently, you can search it and just NS it assuming you can combo without using up your NS by starting with something like Unexpected Dai.
I know that feel but any plant NS to link off into Disc search Lily and that's at least 2 plants for a copium Dancepione or just Lily send herself to summon the Regulus, Disc/Lily aren't even real bricks whereas Cactus Bouncer is 100% a brick if you need to Normal Summon.
Rikkas should be bouncin' their breasts instead
Oops you opened Discolosseum, Snowdrop, and Regulus again
Losing Chaos Ruler sucks, but in reality Bystial Synchro doesn't actually die because Assault Synchron was meant to combo with other Blackwing cards like Darkrage
As long as Lubellion is at 3, you can still do the moronic combos without more deck dedication, it's just more linear.
What's stopping the TCG from unlimiting Drident and Barrage?
TCG players are insanely conceited and convinced they have some kind of data tracking system that's more up-to-date and accurate vs. Master Duel's, so they've come to various irrational conclusions about which cards are "Problems" or "too strong". Hence, pic related. Straight up room temperature I.Q. bans.
Anon you don't understand, it DRAWS a CARD
This is so ridiculously OP that it must remain at 0 forever.
Same with Chicken Game, a card that strikes fear into the heart of every TCG player
don't respond to yourself like that
I'd never really looked at Chicken Game's art before. Why is Oni Tank such a coward?
Imagine if they applied consistent logic across the board, like "what if this fricking card might be broken because it's strictly better than pot of greed and graceful charity?!"
Konami seems to disregard shit like borger and heatsoul being pot of greed when it comes to that for some reason.
Konami wants random draws in the game. It's why Maxx "C" is legal and all those moronic draw engines are too.
Chicken game is exclusively in ftk decks or the worst locks you've ever seen.
New years and the pendtroony is still crying over a card being banned in a format he doesn't play.
>TCGoid random troony mention
I don't play TCG you obsessed schizo. I'm glad your homosexual ass failed excuse of a summoning mechanic gets shit on in every format anyway, either because of Maxx "C" or outright banning your degenerate bullshit.
>a-actually
I accept your concession, now if you are a good pup and reply again I'll even let you have the last word.
You sound seriously rectally renegaded my guy.
Nothing, it'll probably happen next banlist. Harp Horror coming off means the sky's the limit for those kind of cards from old formats.
Too much caution.
Drident? Nothing, it should come back.
Barrage? It's probably still too efficient. Not even for Zoodiac, just for the r4nk slop decks.
>Barrage? It's probably still too efficient. Not even for Zoodiac, just for the r4nk slop decks.
It's unlimited in MD and not doing anything tbh.
Went to my LGS and every TCG player looked like this. What's going on with that?
They were playing against sunavalon and couldn’t wait for their slow asses anymore?
what did you expect? this thread literally reeks of unwashed buttcrack
sweety that's their neovegana's reverse boyqueef
Who is this based individual? That wasn't a great ash if it's your only handtrap though, sorry bro.
You can now only use handtraps with a Attribute or Type relation to your main archetype engine.

Skill issue
Okay, but what is he going to do? He has no engine
I mean, yes. I won because his next draw was nothing (thankfully), but it was still annoying.
Did Konami shill Branded so hard they're afraid of nerfing it? Deck has basically received the least nerfs out of any meta deck for the past year and a half.
It's only very recently that it became 'meta'. It's been hovering around T3-ish for the longest time before this. It just gets new fricking cards every other month it feels like
You mean to say swordsoul. The only hit it ever got was semi longyuan. And even then he's going to be at 3. Did they hit the floodgate part that made it good? Branded has received five waves of hits at this point.
Crazy that Protos is still free, calling dark is FTK against 90% of decks and the only time I remember winning against a Protos resolving is on Mikanko.
Probably because, as much as I think floodgates, especially lingering floodgates, shouldn't be a thing, Protos isn't actually being much of a problem. Yes, Protos is a bonkers card that's surprisingly low-investment. You still don't see Swordsoul topping much.
Limited pots, higher power level and they banned IO and vanity

Make sure to time stall all runick players and then dc when you are about to hit the time limit.
Switched to manko and got a 4 winstreak.
now switch to a manko in real life and you would have winstreak too
I'm too lazy to chase after irl manko. I don't want to deal with bawds, and romantic girls like seeing men chase after them because it shows they really want to be with them. I'm too proud for that.
Prefer to wreck the ygo md ladder.
Are you guys all in some shadow queue or something? I see stun maybe 1-2 times a month
Maybe I might be.
I have an unnatural amount of bad luck in this game. Like, 2 days ago I was playing spright bystial, Maxx C'd my opp on t3, he went for the kill as mathmech.
I needed exactly 1 bystial, of which I run 8 in my deck, to survive the swing. Drew like 9 cards but not a single bystial. This is one of a mountain of misfortune overdose examples I have.
That's how unlucky I am.
I have bad luck streaks but in all my time playing MD (doing either the Gold>Plat or Plat>Diamond grind depending on the current meta) I've never experienced this omni-present stun shit that some people talk about
>when the max c Crutch doesn't work
>finish DDD board.
>Run out of zones for imperm or called.
Bring back my goddamn scales.
Why did they have to make this shit a continuous spell? 🙁
I DON'T HAVE ROOM DAMMIT I'M RUNNING THE FUNNY ZARC TRAP
It's pretty annoying that with this, the funny z-arc trap, and maybe something else, it really limits what hand traps you can play. Cards like called by might not have a spot to play.
I do enjoy giving up 1/5th of my Extra Deck and 1/3 of my S/T zones purely for meme reasons
The power of the Wheeler is real guys
Why is that stupid Rock Dyno floodgate not banned?
My humble fossil petdeck needs it.
But really, probably because they think it's okay just limiting Boarder and the other floodgates. They're wrong, but whatever.
The Rock Dyno can be searched, and summoned after a Baronne negate gets set up. It's fricking stupid.
Dyna does absolutely nothing for fossils lmao, you need to SS for your fusions.
>all shit i see in diamond is pink jashitra, punk bystials and punk mill turbo piles with zombie vamp and kikalos

>kitkalos mills 5 plus 3/6 with kashtear combo on summon(one card combo with reino)
>pilgrim reaper mills 5(2 bystials)

Kitkallos is basically limited to her archetype. Ruler was a generic, and could resummon itself.
Normal summon or mill special Reino sends Havnis or Scheiren to get a 1 card kitkal.
Trick clown, electromagnetic turtle, lightsworn summons, tear extenders, thunder collossus of of nemeses engine after banishing shit with snow or bystials. Go look at the rank 32 overall deck on HIS website to see that degen deck people started copying and mill maxing.
I don't see what your point is, these mill slop decks will always exist but it's not like you need PUNKS to do any of this stuff and it's significally worse if you are not making Chaos Ruler with them.
mills 3 (two 4s)
mills 5 plus 3/6 with kashtear combo on summon(one card combo with reino)
reaper mills 5(2 bystials)
vamp mills 4
Now tell me what those mills do, realistically
mills 5 plus 3/6 with kashtear combo on summon(one card combo with reino)

Is Floo a decent deck or did the hits kill it?
1 of each pot must hurt ngl
I made it to M1 with it last season so I would say it's still fairly decent, another consistency hit sucks but it's not like having 1 less pot changes your gameplan or anything.
Thanks. Mind posting a list?
I believe I only need 3 advents for the core.
Here's the list I've been running although you can definitely cut down on the number of tribute summon birds since most people don't play this many, Unexplored winds is also commonly played at 1 and you can include some extra consistency cards like Gold sarc if you want to.
Digging the evenly.
Don't have snowl though.... fug.

FUN PETDECK
6 cards? He's about to draw 1 more from Jialong and 1 more from Borger. He also gets a pop from Ceasar and Razen so enjoy playing through that interaction line plus whatever the frick the other 6 cards are.
I don't know how the frick they think that shit is anything but one of the best decks in the game its so fricking hard to interact with, then they start playing into your board and guess what I'm going to draw into kurikara so don't use any effects if you don't want to get FTK'd this turn and if you don't I'll just burn you for the rest anyway
fricking stupid limit borger
see
Pots are broken but Borger Draw 2 is balanced lmaooo
It's ok because VS also runs Desires and Extravagance. They can beat 99% of decks just with their normal deck monsters lel.
At least Branded runs out of cards after a full turn. VSBlack folk legit go +4 on a normal turn.
>Stake your soul grabs Jialong or Borger, both of which go +1
>Razen +1s, also searchs for 2 above
>Rock the Vanquisher returns his material from GY to hand
>Jialong reveal Kurikara, Razen or Ash to +1
>Borger reveal Mad Love. Bystials, DD Crow or Dshifter to +1
Then they can go ahead and draw more shit every turn. Drolling or Maxx Cing them does nothing because they will do whatever the frick they were going to do during your turn as well.
>At least Branded runs out of cards after a full turn
More like till end phase, by next turn it got most of resources back.
the only problem cards in VS is snow devil, because for similar resons to Branded it requires you to run HFD alongside evenly (which otherwise kills VS)
Borger is the problem, tags out to dodge shit. Draws every turn or burns you for 1500 every turn. Drawing every turn when the deck runs the non engine shit it does and just needs different attributes in hand is fricked. Snow devil is very good too though
VS can't play if they don't have names on the field and Snow Devil is what keeps names on the field after an evenly. There are also no hand traps that stop special summoning from the hand or banish (like Tri Brigade Revolt) which makes it hard to stop unlike say kaijus or droplet on Rock
Add that to Snow Devil's burn and VS just becomes another trickstar deck with borger which is degnerate as frick

How do you make dark magician better with whats available in game
im running it with bystials but it still feels like shit
Summon the dragon knight and set the trap and spell.
but i have trouble doing that
rod can only search for one thing and usually gets negated
soul servant requires dm on the field or gy
so you have two searches which for either dark magical circle or magicians salvation to get eternal soul
then you need a fusion on top of that
so either you got have some of those things in your hand which doesnt happen all the time or you have to just settle for only part of the setup.
even more so when you run bystials and hand traps
but without bystials dm is even weaker it feels

Why konami hate main deck boss pends?
They are either fricking awful or simply non usable because generic ED tend be far better and easier to summon.
Endy is the only one that actually keep pends around.
the better question is why TCG hates the word "god"
Think of the children.
frick children
That's the spirit.
Most of it is relics of the past at this point designed to make it fit with older cards.
A few cards don't give a frick, like Crystal God Tistina or Egyptian God Slime.
Vaylantz does have their own boss monster that works as an actual interruption but every time I see the deck it's just being used to combo into a degenerate lockdown with Pachy or something.
Because deck don't have any sort of plays besides that or go second otk. It lack of monsters and is limited on tools due lock.
Also blame konami for making that shit searchable or being able to SS.

Why do people make Lab's breasts way bigger than they actually are.
She is lanky and her dress obviously has padding.
1, because it's hot and so is she
2, because even though proportionally she actually has C-cup breasts according to JP autists measuring Big Welcome and her art ref sheet, her initial card art legitimately makes her breasts look much, much larger simply because she's arching her back and puffing out her chest to look tough, because she's a dork.
>Why do artists exaggerate traits they like
Hmm
because its funny
Also forgot to mention the outer flap of her dress's chest makes it look like her boob is the size of her head on the art for Lovely Lab's actual card.
