I still can't figure out why they fricked with the rules instead of just making a straight simulator. It's called rush duel ffs the games were already fast enough.
Inevitable, easy victory for the best format. Always remember it's the omni-negate or stun zoomer losers that don't want Rush to succeed. Modern Yugioh is hanging on by a thread. Give the people another, playable mode (N/R mode, Rush) and zoomers will be forced to play the far more popular modes.
You still get to play with 6 cards that turn instead of 5, or 7 if you set Pot the previous turn. There are other spell legends that see more play though.
A summoning method exclusive to rush where 3 cards, if they're in your hand, you can summon them all at once and they "combine" the 3 monster zones into 1 and create 1 massive creature usually with 3 different abilities. They often have trap destruction nullification. There's quite a few maximums and what they want to accomplish. They're arguably harder to assemble and summon vs. Fusions.
The chances were always 0 since they felt the need to have force it into duel links instead of giving it it's own client. Or maybe cross duel made them apprehensive about making a new client.

I love this deck, every thing it does counter runick mill. Frick that ruBlack folk
Diabellstar doesn’t lose to Droll, monster effect doesn’t add from deck (it sets from deck), Wanted is a quickplay that could be chained to droll. And summoning Diabellstar and setting the almost omninegate trap from deck is a decent way to pass turn.

>MTG is still worse somehow lmao
They had a good streak until Kaladesh which was exactly like your average YGO set. A set filled mostly with crap but had very significant meta impacting chase rares that introduced the next level of powercreep to the game plus collector rares with stupid small pull rates.
Afterwards they had another good streak from Amonkhet to Dominaria and then the game was ultimately ruined by War of the Spark. The game never recovered from that point. Not because War of the Spark was solely responsible for ruining the game but that year introduced a lot of gimmicky crap that Hasbro and WotC would use as template and it would only get more unhinged from that point onward.
Just wait for HIS next leak. Even HE said the March pack is mostly shite.

Nugioh is so draining, bros. I loaded into ranked with Branded and opened a busted hand against an opponent with no hand traps, but I ended up quitting mid combo because I couldn't bring myself to keep playing. Why should I? I know exactly how the rest of the game is going to go at that point. I'm gonna combo off and make more interactions than my opponent has cards in hand, I'm gonna stop him from playing, then on turn 3 I'm gonna attack for game. Maybe if he opened a god hand too we'll grind back and forth for an extra turn or two at most, but I'll end up winning eventually because I got to go first and set up before him. Why even bother playing this shit?
My god, you’re the first braindead player to actually achieve inner thought and self awareness. A branded player has finally freed itself from NPC tier. This is an astonishing development for Yugioh. You might find that you enjoy decks that aren’t solely top tier. Try playing some meme tier deck focused on a card from the anime that you liked if you ever watched it. Repost back with further developments. We must collect more data. Do not dismantle the branded deck in event of a relapse, this monumental event may trigger again at some point.
first off. you did this to yourself. stop playing meta decks and stop climbing. play shitter decks and stay in silver/gold and freely leave any match against any card you dont want to play against. do not let the ranked grind tether and bind you. Heaven can be anywhere you choose it to be.
lastly you can always go take and break and try other card games. I juggle MtG and Yugioh both. sometimes you just need a palate cleanser.I literally havent bought the last 3 meta archtypes. Not Superheavy and Not SnakeEyes. Im sitting here in low Plat I think playing "The Agents" and the only archtype im going to buy next is Volcanics. this is how I enjoy Yugioh atm. now YOU figure out how to enjoy the game.
for anyone here who doesn't understand why some players scoop on sight to things like aluber add branded fusion, this is exactly why
they don't have a hand strong enough to prevent this sequence of events from happening
They should let whoever goes second be able to see the card on top of their deck.
If people know they'll have a chance by drawing a boardbreaker or something they might actually stick around for your full combo.
That's a MR6 change I can get behind, though you only open 5 instead of 6 if you do mulligan going second. Going first should play whatever they get, it's a powerful enough position as it is.
>though you only open 5 instead of 6
Better: if you go 2nd you skip your draw phase.
You don't want the turn 2 player to mulligan and start with 4 cards
3 months ago

Skipping draw phase is already an attempt to hit going first. Going second getting one is fair all things considered, though you should forfeit it if you mulligan for a fresh hand.
Play a stun/control/midrange deck if you want to slow the game down to a back and forth. But ultimately, you've identified what is perhaps the main problem of best of 1 - with no siding and rematches, probability dictates that a disproportionate number of games are solved on coin flip.
>probability dictates that a disproportionate number of games are solved on coin flip.
No, the biggest problem with bo1 is bad deck matchups.
Backrow decks are extremely hard for monster combo to beat, because they're build to handle other monsters and not disruptive S/T or floodgates.
Branded and Lab are fundamentally backrow decks. They're stronger in bo1 than in bo3 going first or second because monster combo needs to run dedicated backrow removal against them, and running those makes them worse against other monster-heavy decks.
You need more staples like Evenly that are good against monsters and S/T, while not being skewed so hard towards going second.
Raigeki Break as a generic quickplay for example would be very strong in the bo1 despite the discard cost.
Siding adequately addresses this very problem. Too bad you can't do that in a BO1. You don't need even more busted generics in a game with enough busted generics, you need a format where you can strategically enact those options instead of compromising efficiency by trying to deck build for all matchups under all circumstances.
>while not being skewed so hard towards going second
Going first is so advantageous as it is that you don't need any support bolstering that position.
>Siding adequately addresses this very problem.
No it fricking doesn't. All it leads to is stacking blowouts, floodgates and other moronic unintereactive shit.
The solution to backrow vs monster combo is a card that's useful aginst both. Evenly has the highst usage among MD breakers specifically becuse it doesn't care what row the cards are in. >Send 1 card from your hand or Extra Deck to the GY, then target 1 card on the field; destroy it.
>Send 1 card from your hand or Extra Deck to the GY, then target 1 card on the field; destroy it.
That would be (and is) incredibly busted
Nadir servant is crazy already and you have to send n'tss to make it a pop, with garura that's neutral in card advantage for a pop AND can't be ashed or called by
Actually, I'd like this card, print it
>Quickplay Spell
It's better than dogmatika punishment because it can hit anything, not just monsters, and if there are negates or floodgates up you can pitch Garura, N'tss or Aggregator and not minus yourself. And if you want to set up a combo you can send the card from the hand, so you have choices/options.
Most boardbreakers today struggle to force a 1 for 2 unless they actually resolve. Here's one that doesn't have to. Hell, if you negate the activation I can use another.
rank 5 arise-heart turbo
any deck that can make a rank 5 such as combat star warriors, cyber dragons, infinitrack, constellar, etc. can make an untargettable, indestructible (by card effect) arise-heart as their last summon with just 1 SR (infinitrack river stormer) + 1 UR (arise-heart)
This is correct
In general you do need to play at least 2x Goliath if you're not playing machines in your deck, since Crab Crane search effect requires banishing 1 machine from GY as cost. So before summoning Crab Crane, make Goliath first using River Stormer, then summon Crab Crane. This way you can banish a Goliath instead of the River Stormer you need later.
Anybody else getting sudden disconnections in Master Duel? I'm not even getting bad connection warnings, it's just suddenly booting me out of the game.
Wait I lied. I said the "only archtype im going to buy is Volcanics" but actually I WILL be trying the Earthbounds here in about 2 days. I thought the crazy russian guy from arc-V was pretty based and I love hybrid ED decks so im looking forward to this.
So from what I understand, you want 3 Rollback and maybe Foolish Burial Goods for good measure, right? Dump to the GY, do your usual turn 1 plays, then be a humongous piece of shit and activate Ghost Meets Girl from the GY on the opponent's Draw Phase? I love it.

Yeah on Lab you load up on max copies just because the card is ridiculous since it lets you activate Big welcome twice in a turn. You might not need all copies just yet but I know modern lab builds are running 3 just because of the added flexibility it gives them with their traps in the grave

That anon's moronic, but you wait for them to activate Rollback in the GY which banishes itself, then you chain DD crow on their target causing Rollback to fizzle and also probably banishing Big Welcome so they don't get its GY effect or Tiny Welcome so they can't reset it.

Is that how it works? I'd assume that since Rollback already designated a target, the effect will be copied even if the card is removed from the GY.

The more pressing problem is that it is horrible at going second, and competitive players in the TCG coped with stuffing the deck with handtraps going second
>le search everything chain link 5 infinite free recursion deck is not a problem
Every card printed after 2014( and lots of cards printed even earlier than that) is a problem.
You killed a frickton of petdecks for no reason, and you only got to make metapiles and floodgate piles stronger.
Also you may have come up with the most moronic MR I’ve heard in 23 years of playing this game
You frickwad! I play Volcanic, a deck that would be greatly boosted by that rule and that doesn’t change the fact that what you are suggesting is the most moronic thing I’ve heard in my life related to Yugioh.
What's so bad about it? Petdecks are already dead in the water as it is. What difference does it make if it's poisoned water?
Petdeckgays like you just don't understand that this game isn't for you.
>Petdecks are already dead in the water as it is
Not versus other petdecks, what you are suggesting you extremely inbreed sack of shit will make people who used to play this for fun with their friends instantly quit. >What difference does it make if it's poisoned water?
Because unlike all the other TCG Yugioh lives and prospers from those very same people and on the other hand they don’t care what metapigs do to one another until those cards get reprinted into the 10 or less buck price or when one of their petdecks gets hit with a ban out of the blue because a metapig was abusing their extender (hello half the Phantom Beast deck)
What you are suggesting would kill the game in a month. Hell something similar almost did once!
>Petdeckgays like you just don't understand that this game isn't for you
Quite the opposite, BEWD, DM, HERO, Toon and REBD sell this shit far above and beyond any meta deck has ever done…
Hitting extra deck summoning isn't a valid solution because it hits entire subtypes like synchro and link disproportionately, like the majority of those archetypes just become unplayable. The game's in too deep on that nonsense to address it now.
Only one mulligan, you only get it going second, and you lose the draw phase for invoking it. In a game that lacks hard limits beyond normal summons, something's gotta make some damn sense. Plus, it's arguably an actual downside to going first.
Actually, I want to amend this - you mulligan for how many cards you start your turn with. If you play 2 handtraps on your opponent's turn, you either draw for 4 in hand or mulligan for 3 in hand.
You have to pick if you want the mulligan to be Reload, or Magical Mallet
Magical Mallet-like mulligan is outright stronger than going first, because you get to curate your hand and put back bricks you don't want.
imo the only fair is the player who lost the coin toss (not go second) gets to mulligan once, after DP. becuse turn orders are already balanced around the DP. and you still skip your next DP if you mulligan.
It's all or nothing, but I guess you phrased it better than I did. It would absolutely be like Reload, you put it all in and you get the equivalent back.
>tfw you stopped playing like 2 weeks after launch because all the yugiboomers got filtered out and the sea of blue eyes in ranked got replaced by Drytrons and other meta trash
>p1 mp1 >p2 mp1 except p1's entire field has summoning sickness and can't do anything or be interacted with, handtraps can be played as normal >p1 battle phase >p2 battle phase >p1 mp2 >p2 mp2 >game continues normally from turn 3 onward
would need to be playtested and tweaked a lot but fundamentally it would fix 3 big problems. namely giving both players a chance to build their board, battle phase no longer being useless, and OTKs being less prevalent.

Unexpected but also not unwelcome
Got a generic question. If I use something like BLS to banish a monster facedown, can a player use something like Pot of Inquisitveness or whatever to select those banished facedowns?
You can only use cards that mention generic "banished cards" because that's all that they are. They're not considered banished monsters because being face down in the banish pile they could be spells/traps instead. Unless the card specifies you can do it with face down banished cards like Gizmek Naganaki
Face down cards are treated as unknown. So since PoAcquisitvness needs to interact with monsters specifically it doesn't work
Dis Pater or Nyannyan on the other hand CAN interact with face down banished cards and shuffle them back into the deck because all that it requires is a "banished card"
Wyrm is "Phantom Dragon" in the same way that Sea Serpents are originally "Sea Dragons" and Dinosaurs are "Terror Dragons" in Japanese.
They're literally all just different types of dragon, and many cards like Uradora of Fate reference this in a way that's lost in translation.
Whatever you do don't craft Utopia when he's bad for the deck and in the structure deck anyway. And don't waste materials on Ruddy Rose.
Other than that, who cares? Not like you need anything more than the second Chixao for the deck to be playable. Play it while missing a few cards and decide if you like it for yourself.
I wouldn't call it lucky for them but I had an opponent that opened all 3 of their Maxx Cs. I play a deck that barely gives a shit about it, though. RIP that guy.
Now that I think about it, Diabellstar engine will also be pretty good in Lab, won't it? Simply by fact that it lets you discard a card to summon her, so you have another card that can dump Rollback to the GY if needed.
I lost all respect for rushtroons recently. too pozzed for modern yugioh, too dumb for actual old formats. the only game they can play is the one designed for literal small children. what a sad, useless existance.
>playing tears >go first and get shiftered + evenly'd + rota for razen >go second against ancient warrior decked out in triple d-fissure/summon limit and full of gy hate
Jesus christ I must have pissed some chinknami executive. Bet they're even angrier now that I shat on both the assassins they sent my way lmfao.
Most gay yard effects shuffle back or banish as cost so it's not really necessary. Crow was good for a while because tears and bystials shuffled/banished for effect
>Why did they need to make the extra deck insanely accessible
Kazuki Takahashi himself wanted this, he viewed fusions not being viable without dedicating an entire deck to them as a mistake and wanted to correct it, so he designed synchros. And he was 100% right, because Synchro era was the best Yugioh has ever been.
>vs random korean >lose because he drew all outs >immediately go for next game >it's the same korean >he's going first, knows my deck, and I have no handtraps >scoop
Plot twist, it was not the same korean, and I scooped for no reason. Stupid symbol writing.
Reddit spy here, just want to let you all know that the Master Duel subreddit HATED the Goat tryout duel. If you didn't like it, you might be a Redditor!
The only complain I consistently saw both here and leddit where about gravity bind & level limit. Yet these same morons absolutely REFUSE to add extra backrow removal to their deck.
If the Goat event taught us anything, it's that frickheads are adamant about not changing their deck unless they have tournament results to copy from on MDM.
Eh, I think that like 6-9 anti-backrow 1 breaker, 1 MST, 1 Heavy Storm, 3 Dust Tornado, 3 Judgement is a good number to be expected to run in the maindeck, but when they can run 3 Level Limit, 3 Gravity Bind, and 3 Messanger of Peace then that eats up all your backrow removal since those are basically an instant win against most decks if you allow them to stay up.
You can go further and run more, or be obligated to also run 3 Magician of Faith or Mobius, but we're just getting into even worse levels than the Maxx C package here.
And heaven forbid you actually want to use your MST vs the mystery set, or the Wave Motion Cannon, and that's not even getting into them having the outs to your outs like Judgements of their own.
Having them all at 3 is just a bit much for best of 1. Same for 3 Reaper, 3 Marshmallon.
Bunch of morons. You can stack backrown removal in slower formats because ending with nothing on the field isn't a death sentence like in modern Yugioh.
Zoomers can't wrap their heads around backrow removal working differently in old formats. Modern yugioh has conditioned them to think sticking a HFD in your deck means you now have a dead card in 9/10 matchups.
To be fair, stall IS overpowered in the format we got. Not enough S/T removal, I was running dust tornados and mobius on top of heavy storm and MST, and I still kept getting stalled, because stall players also have Solemn to protect their backrow. MST absolutely would need to be at 3 in a format like this.
It's one thing to deny that stun can be countered by just making a quarter of your deck anti-backrow, and another to be against what that does for deck variety.
Too much removal and no presence and you risk getting run over by Gadgets. There isn't a deck that can do everything unlike modern Yugioh. You need to know when to call it and forfeit.
Yeah. I don't mind Bo1 in modern Yugioh, but side decking is far more important for older formats. >oh, you drew your 9th anti-attacking floodgate? >Well I'm only running 10 backrow removal cards, and you Judgemented one and the other I used on your Torrential Tribute in the early game >Guess I have no possibility of ever attacking from this point on so you win GG

Man, I really don't feel like playing this anymore after experiencing old yugioh again. I thought it was just nostalgia, but turns out batttlephase actually existing, and the game not being determined turn 1 WAS in fact a better game. No wonder they don't want to give us old yugioh in MD format permanently, they know no one will buy their new slop if they do.
Aki was the worst part of 5Deez. Everytime her wack ass was on screen I fast forwarded. "Waaah I'm so le damaged 🙁 🙁 :(" fricking boring get back to the Yusei Jack story
She took up SO MUCH FRICKING TIME too I'm glad as frick she got turned into a non character
2 SR in total.
Sided in 2x Mystical Refpanel instead of crafting PoG because it is a plus 2 if I hit Pot of Greed and it determined the outcome of the game against burn decks. I would had lost 3 times if I had not hit a critical spell with Mystical Refpanel against burn and won me the game against Pacman and Aggro.
I just checked

3 of the games it was the same one
the chances of that happening every other game is incredibly improbable
How is master duel compared to duel links? I remember playing duel links when it first came out and having good f2p deck but then they released an event and i didn't play it because i got burned out and when i came back after the event my deck was outclassed by cards that were no longer obtainable
In MD, you can craft any deck, including the newest slop, just in a couple of hours of play starting fresh. And if you keep up with dailies and event, you can have 10+ meta decks easily without paying a cent, just by playing less than an hour every other day. No grind walls, no character levels, no skills, no freemium currencies bullshit.
Duel Links is hyper israeli. You CAN make a f2p deck on DL, but the moment the next monthly set or event comes out then all previous decks are immediately powercrept.
Master Duel on the other hand is unironically the most F2P digital card game around, which was a huge surprise coming from the same company that made Duel Links.
You can get a new deck or two like every month. Whether you want to get whatever the hot new meta deck is or make something else is up to you.
It also doesn't take much grinding to max your monthly gems, but grinding also won't reward much beyond the easily obtained stuff.
The one caveat is that new stuff gets added to a new pack that lasts for 2 months. After that it'll take like 5 months to a year before it gets added to permanent packs. So anything that came out in the range of a year to 3 months ago can only be obtained by crafting which is much more expensive.
So it's easy to keep up with new releases, but harder to catch up if you're someone who needs to have everything. But just focus one deck at a time and write off certain ones until they're added to packs and that's not a big deal.
Master Duel is saved by the crafting system. It's very easy to build a meta deck on a fresh account. Once you've built up your "staples" collection it then becomes extremely easy to build new decks.

I'm moronic but I have to ask about this specific situation and why it resolved. >special summon blue eyes alternative from hand >opponent activates effect of Sinister Sovereign to banish it >I respond with Ultimate Fusion to summon Twin Burst Dragon >they respond with the second effect of Sinister Sovereign to banish Ultimate Fusion >Ultimate Fusion is banished but still resolves after
figured it wouldn't activate since it was banished before resolution, but I suppose it also wasn't specifically negated.
removing/destroying a card doesn't negate it's effect unless it's a continuous effect. You can chain MST to Fire Formation Tenki to stop it's search effect, but if you chain MST to Reinforcements of the Army it's effect still resolves.
The simplicity of old cards means they're either totally broken or totally shit.
It's a lot easier to balance a card when you can fit in activation conditions, costs, and restrictions.
Equip card, which makes it easily searchable, it has no HOPT, which makes it easily loopable with bounce effects. Many decks can easily steal your entire board with it.
That means it's a turn 2 play and you played through your opponents 10 omni negate board. There's better ways to win instead of trying to steal their whole board. You basically confirmed it should be unlimited and boomer PTSD is a HELL of a thing to tip-toe around constantly. Case in point: why is this card banned still? Who, in good faith, would argue this is broken by today's standards other than buck broken boomers?
majespecters are based. I love how most of them are immune to being targeted and destroyed by card effects.
I wish they'd get rid of that rule holding Pendulums back where you can only pendulum summon 1 face-up extra deck pendulum unless you got link pointers.

Master Rule 4 could be completely eliminated and it still wouldn't be enough to push any pend decks to meta. That's how fast and deep the power creep is in modern yugioh.
I think it's worth pointing out that they released snatch steal on the same banlist they banned Isolde. Snatch steal on it's own isn't crazy but Mikanko Warrior piles are a decent rogue strategy and with Ohime snatch steal essentially becomes searchable interruption.

Fair but one deck making 1 card crazy good probably shouldn't set a precedent that said card should be banned. It'd be like arguing that Branded despia REALLY makes Mirrorjade shine, but anyone can summon the card because Branded Fusion is a really silly card.

The issue is what the card does in this case though. Mirrojade is a good card that does a lot for the deck, but it's just a banish. Like the other comment mentioned, Snatch steal is OPT.
If you are playing a warrior pile deck you can search it with hidden armory, summon renaud off Isolde to get it again, use Ohime to get it a third time. That's 3 times you are stealing your opponents monsters. And Hidden armory can add from grave too, so 4 potential uses of yoinking your opponent's monsters. On top of Mikanko's other crazy equip spells like Water arabesque and Rondo.
Like, i don't think the card is super omega broken. Warrior piles don't suddenly become the best deck in the game, but I do think those decks become pretty degen with snatch steal around and I understand why they're hesitant to keep it and Isolde around in the same format.
It probably will come off sometime soon but I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't

true it really should be cards from that archtype that get banned but then you start getting cards like crystron halqifibrax and Baronne that everyone can abuse. maybe we need a master rule that the extradeck needs a certain amount of representation in the main deck before it's allowed.
>Free interruption on either turn from a scale in any pend deck
Frick off, it might not be meta warping but nobody outside the minority of pend players wants Electrumite slop deck to have an extra interruption just for existing.

>I can't recover from 1 bounce that also removes 1 more potential blocker for my opponent
Funny that you think the bounce is the issue and not your shit deck building or tier 10 deck you're bringing to the table.
homie, most destruction nowadays is part of negate effect like Baronne, if anything snatch steal is better since as equip card you can bypass can't be targeted and non destruction negate, heck it can even counter monster that immune against activated affects like Expurrely Noir since equip card is continues effect
NR is still by far my favorite. it was the only event I made up a deck entirely of my own, that was unlike anything I saw from other players. had a really good win ratio with it, too
if I remember right Sunseed was banned, but no one seemed to have figured out that the Sunavalon links still served as a nice stalling engine. and using Spore as a way to climb into Nirvana High Paladin was hilarious
Oh yeah shit I remember a bunch of people were trying out plants specifically because mark of the rose was legal.
For me, I was using my own take on stardust sifr divine dragon, which I still fiddle around in solo mode
Labbros, how will your deck look after we get Transaction Rollback? I need some pointers. Obviously Ghost Meets Girl is a must, but I'm also seeing other options like EEV without the need of tributing a monster.
Konami needs to do an emergency banlist for Transaction Rollback. if they don't this will be actually become the worst meta we've ever seen and player count WILL drop.
A deck abusing Beatrice can already lock you out of the game like 5 different ways and this will be no different, not a meta shaker.
Lab having 4 furniture instead of 6 makes Rollback worse, if they ever limit one or both of them the card is now effectively useless and same goes for the Black Goat trap coming later.
Not everything about meta you know. something cards can just lower the quality of games because they will be played. Kash is a good example of something not being meta defining(in master duel) but still annoying and lower the quality of matches Stun in general is a good example too but it's a somewhat necessary evil when a meta gets too bad so I would rag on it too much.
Generally that kind of stupid gimmick combo doesn't even manifest on ladder, because who wants to play a long inconsistent and fragile combo for hours? SHS already exists and there's like 4 Calamity decks, so this will be a drop in the bucket. I welcome people to play the deck that has 2 hard bricks.

I want more Link Monsters for people who don't play Link decks. Cards like BLS Soldier of Chaos fall under that category. It stands on its own, not depending on a certain archetype or other link monsters. It's about as generic as it gets, just tribute three monsters with different names and you get a shiny big monster.
a little late, but I think you gotta make sure that whenever you do spend, you have 1000, and then target whatever UR you need for your next or current deck.
What I do, is craft some SR from a locked pack, dump 1000 on it and hope I either get the UR I need, or enough to dismantle to craft it.
We all know full power Tearlament is the strongest deck of all time, but how does full power Snake-Eye stack up to full power Zoodiac, Dragon Link, Spright, and Kashtira?
>fire king snake eyes is just as strong as tear
Lol no. Japan recently did a no banlist tournament and Tear took places 1 and 2. Tear with full access to millers and shuffles is pants on head moronic and will mog 99% of all decks unless they get shifter/macro/dfissure cucked. Just the shufflers alone mog fire cucks.
The only way snake eyes is standing up to full power dragons or zoo is if they can play S:P and the others can't. Even spright is in a league above snake eye.
So i like yubel and with the support she has in the future she might be good but what can i do with her in master duel until the support arrives and what cards should i be crafting.
Yubel does literally nothing without the 10 training wheels they add later. Unless you time travel to Duel Links years ago when Yubel Fire King was a thing.
>Yubel does literally nothing without the 10 training wheels they add later. Unless you time travel to Duel Links years ago when Yubel Fire King was a thing.
I just enjoy playing jank.
Among the current duel links lures yubel is one of them, you can normal neos or yubel without tribute, evolve yubel for free >evolved cards outside your deck
Then add super poly, miracle or poly to your hand >outside your deck
Its currently everwhere and while not on the tier list kluger and wiseman cheeses wins, and you can still fusion into any other heroe without restrictions
If you are poor or dont care about the anime then u would not understand the appeal of late season yudai's eyea glowing and talking about feeling Yubel in his ass
They need to start hitting handtraps the same way they hit floodgates, sick of the modern format of cram 20 handtraps with 20 one card combos.
It won't happen so I guess I need to accept it or drop the game till the next meta I like arrives if it ever happens.
I've got some decks like that and they are fun but they can be very difficult to draw well with going second and shit like the wieneraroach and droll will still kill you.
I'm just bitter, I thought I'd enjoy a casual climb in platinum I switched to VW at P2 and dropped to P4 in a hour because both the deck is weaker and I lost to every kind of handtrap, droll, Maxx, ash, nib, imperm, etc.
I should have waited a week for more people to leave the bracket before trying VW. >Why don't you make baronne before 5th summon?
I do when the hand permits it but even so if I make it then use it on nibiru, which I did, I now have a 3k beater and shenshen pretty much which isn't going to cut it. >If you want to play VW wait for rollback and turbo beatrice
Noooooooooooooooooooooooo, it's just VFD all over again and frick that.
Handtraps are good and healthy interaction when they're a 1 for 1 trade like Ash/Belle/Veiler/Imperm, they promote paying attention to your opponent's lines going 2nd and playing around them going 1st
They are bad when they're lingering like Droll/Shifter/Maxx C or even Lancea because they require no though on timing due to their effects lasting for the turn
>I need to accept it or drop the game till the next meta I like arrives if it ever happens.
I just want a jank ranked option if a card has more than a certain % usage in meta ranked then limit and the more it's used the harder it's hit.

You still get to play with 6 cards that turn instead of 5, or 7 if you set Pot the previous turn. There are other spell legends that see more play though.

No.5 card game in Japan. Doesn't look very dead to me.
>No.5
Yes, 5 is a number...

Wow, it scored 5 out of 5?
Rush Won.
what is maximum summon?
A summoning method exclusive to rush where 3 cards, if they're in your hand, you can summon them all at once and they "combine" the 3 monster zones into 1 and create 1 massive creature usually with 3 different abilities. They often have trap destruction nullification. There's quite a few maximums and what they want to accomplish. They're arguably harder to assemble and summon vs. Fusions.
rush is a failure
How's it feel knowing DL ruined Rush's chances of ever releasing in the West or getting it's own game client?
The chances were always 0 since they felt the need to have force it into duel links instead of giving it it's own client. Or maybe cross duel made them apprehensive about making a new client.
I don't care because Yugioh outside of east asia is an afterthought.
Duel Links is also trash
Rush is also trash and an afterthought so the two are a perfect match

Ah, yes. The deck that kneels to Gamma.
Deck loses to specific answers, more at 11.
Next youll say diabell is unplayable because it loses to droll and maxx c
Diabellstar doesn't "lose" to anything because her engine functions independently from the rest of the deck.
Diabellstar doesn’t lose to Droll, monster effect doesn’t add from deck (it sets from deck), Wanted is a quickplay that could be chained to droll. And summoning Diabellstar and setting the almost omninegate trap from deck is a decent way to pass turn.
what am i dusting Gankerros
i play lab 🙂
Unironically everything. Keep the DPE I guess, elsewise, if you werent considering the card before putting in this pile, just dust it
Keep the Numeron Networks and build Numeron on the side. The Bystials are dead.
the witchcrafter card is usable
exciton or whatever mr BUG is called is a generic level 4 that wipes the board, arianne is a level 4, keep him
nothung is a necessary card for blackwings if you ever wanna play that
otherwise eh

>Important in their decks, but only their decks, dust if you want but they're okay in events
The UA, Lu Feng, Chacu (can be used in one other deck), Zefraath, Nekroz, Numeron Network, Nothung (only part needed for SD), the Witchcrafter fusion, the hero thing
>actual fricking trash, unless you love these decks dust this shit right now
Dual Avatar guy, the Fabled thing, that Psychic synchro, Exa Beetle, the Elementsaber spell, Hypnagogia
Dunno the rest. I like Sanctuary in my novelty coinflip deck but it's safe to dust too.
I'd keep winda, revolution, 1 aruru, exciton, tornado, and slifer at least.
Too bad we can't trade, I would trade you my royal Arianne for the U.A. Playmaker.
U.A. is a beast in events. Playmaker can OTK out of fricking nowhere.
I would not dust the Nekroz either.

Sad but true but these are safe to dust away unless you want to play some jank and good luck with that, casual is full of tryhards.

>MTG is still worse somehow lmao
They had a good streak until Kaladesh which was exactly like your average YGO set. A set filled mostly with crap but had very significant meta impacting chase rares that introduced the next level of powercreep to the game plus collector rares with stupid small pull rates.
Afterwards they had another good streak from Amonkhet to Dominaria and then the game was ultimately ruined by War of the Spark. The game never recovered from that point. Not because War of the Spark was solely responsible for ruining the game but that year introduced a lot of gimmicky crap that Hasbro and WotC would use as template and it would only get more unhinged from that point onward.
MTG is pretty much just Commander now.

Why do you think HE leaked April pack info when the March pack isn't even here yet.
How often do secret packs get added? There was that Tears leak, and I've been itching to make the deck, but I don't wanna spend all this UR dust and then the secret pack gets added the next day.
You don't want to play Tearlaments, it used to be fun and skillful but now it's just gambleshit with the odds rigged against you.

Nugioh is so draining, bros. I loaded into ranked with Branded and opened a busted hand against an opponent with no hand traps, but I ended up quitting mid combo because I couldn't bring myself to keep playing. Why should I? I know exactly how the rest of the game is going to go at that point. I'm gonna combo off and make more interactions than my opponent has cards in hand, I'm gonna stop him from playing, then on turn 3 I'm gonna attack for game. Maybe if he opened a god hand too we'll grind back and forth for an extra turn or two at most, but I'll end up winning eventually because I got to go first and set up before him. Why even bother playing this shit?
>Nugioh is so draining, bros.
yup, I agree. not gonna bother reading the rest of the post, you're correct and a king
My god, you’re the first braindead player to actually achieve inner thought and self awareness. A branded player has finally freed itself from NPC tier. This is an astonishing development for Yugioh. You might find that you enjoy decks that aren’t solely top tier. Try playing some meme tier deck focused on a card from the anime that you liked if you ever watched it. Repost back with further developments. We must collect more data. Do not dismantle the branded deck in event of a relapse, this monumental event may trigger again at some point.
first off. you did this to yourself. stop playing meta decks and stop climbing. play shitter decks and stay in silver/gold and freely leave any match against any card you dont want to play against. do not let the ranked grind tether and bind you. Heaven can be anywhere you choose it to be.
lastly you can always go take and break and try other card games. I juggle MtG and Yugioh both. sometimes you just need a palate cleanser.I literally havent bought the last 3 meta archtypes. Not Superheavy and Not SnakeEyes. Im sitting here in low Plat I think playing "The Agents" and the only archtype im going to buy next is Volcanics. this is how I enjoy Yugioh atm. now YOU figure out how to enjoy the game.
agents is gay and antifun though
take that back before I tell Parshath to take your face. Hyperion is the coolest.
Cool slop dood, you're totally not part of the problem at all
I play other decks too....
>another ED spam deck

>not herald or vanity turbo
you aight white boi
for anyone here who doesn't understand why some players scoop on sight to things like aluber add branded fusion, this is exactly why
they don't have a hand strong enough to prevent this sequence of events from happening
They should let whoever goes second be able to see the card on top of their deck.
If people know they'll have a chance by drawing a boardbreaker or something they might actually stick around for your full combo.
or just allow mulligans for the one card game that badly needs it
That's a MR6 change I can get behind, though you only open 5 instead of 6 if you do mulligan going second. Going first should play whatever they get, it's a powerful enough position as it is.
>though you only open 5 instead of 6
Better: if you go 2nd you skip your draw phase.
You don't want the turn 2 player to mulligan and start with 4 cards
Skipping draw phase is already an attempt to hit going first. Going second getting one is fair all things considered, though you should forfeit it if you mulligan for a fresh hand.
allowing mulligans in yugioh is a bad idea
seems counterintuitive but trust me, that is not something you want
Play a stun/control/midrange deck if you want to slow the game down to a back and forth. But ultimately, you've identified what is perhaps the main problem of best of 1 - with no siding and rematches, probability dictates that a disproportionate number of games are solved on coin flip.
>probability dictates that a disproportionate number of games are solved on coin flip.
No, the biggest problem with bo1 is bad deck matchups.
Backrow decks are extremely hard for monster combo to beat, because they're build to handle other monsters and not disruptive S/T or floodgates.
Branded and Lab are fundamentally backrow decks. They're stronger in bo1 than in bo3 going first or second because monster combo needs to run dedicated backrow removal against them, and running those makes them worse against other monster-heavy decks.
You need more staples like Evenly that are good against monsters and S/T, while not being skewed so hard towards going second.
Raigeki Break as a generic quickplay for example would be very strong in the bo1 despite the discard cost.
Siding adequately addresses this very problem. Too bad you can't do that in a BO1. You don't need even more busted generics in a game with enough busted generics, you need a format where you can strategically enact those options instead of compromising efficiency by trying to deck build for all matchups under all circumstances.
>while not being skewed so hard towards going second
Going first is so advantageous as it is that you don't need any support bolstering that position.
>Siding adequately addresses this very problem.
No it fricking doesn't. All it leads to is stacking blowouts, floodgates and other moronic unintereactive shit.
The solution to backrow vs monster combo is a card that's useful aginst both. Evenly has the highst usage among MD breakers specifically becuse it doesn't care what row the cards are in.
>Send 1 card from your hand or Extra Deck to the GY, then target 1 card on the field; destroy it.
>Send 1 card from your hand or Extra Deck to the GY, then target 1 card on the field; destroy it.
That would be (and is) incredibly busted
Nadir servant is crazy already and you have to send n'tss to make it a pop, with garura that's neutral in card advantage for a pop AND can't be ashed or called by
Actually, I'd like this card, print it
Dogmatika Punishment already exists?
>Quickplay Spell
It's better than dogmatika punishment because it can hit anything, not just monsters, and if there are negates or floodgates up you can pitch Garura, N'tss or Aggregator and not minus yourself. And if you want to set up a combo you can send the card from the hand, so you have choices/options.
Most boardbreakers today struggle to force a 1 for 2 unless they actually resolve. Here's one that doesn't have to. Hell, if you negate the activation I can use another.
>The solution to backrow vs monster combo is a card that's useful aginst both
Cards like Lightning Storm or Ghost Ogre also do this.

rank 5 arise-heart turbo
any deck that can make a rank 5 such as combat star warriors, cyber dragons, infinitrack, constellar, etc. can make an untargettable, indestructible (by card effect) arise-heart as their last summon with just 1 SR (infinitrack river stormer) + 1 UR (arise-heart)
How does it work?
XYZ River Stormer, search Crab Crane
SS Crab Crane, search Outrigger
Link Goliath. SS River Stormer from GY. Activate Goliath to attach
Outrigger River into Ariseheart
This is correct
In general you do need to play at least 2x Goliath if you're not playing machines in your deck, since Crab Crane search effect requires banishing 1 machine from GY as cost. So before summoning Crab Crane, make Goliath first using River Stormer, then summon Crab Crane. This way you can banish a Goliath instead of the River Stormer you need later.

Guess who is back?
I miss VW bros
Should I craft this now, or wait in case koomoney bans parts of it on the 8th
They going hit beatrice. Its downright stupid on lab but they would rather hit something else than problem cards itself.
I'm ignorant, how are you supposed to summon her in Lab?
You don't, its VW frickery.
You send this and rollback.
So from what I understand, you want 3 Rollback and maybe Foolish Burial Goods for good measure, right? Dump to the GY, do your usual turn 1 plays, then be a humongous piece of shit and activate Ghost Meets Girl from the GY on the opponent's Draw Phase? I love it.
2 is enough and foolish is limited.
But yeah its fun dragon all over again.
I can actually see Ghost Meets Girl getting banned if things get out of hand.
I meant on Labrynth.
Yeah on Lab you load up on max copies just because the card is ridiculous since it lets you activate Big welcome twice in a turn. You might not need all copies just yet but I know modern lab builds are running 3 just because of the added flexibility it gives them with their traps in the grave
D.D. Crow and HIS meta to counter. The 2 will dick down Lab's bullshit and Snake-eyes.
>running shit tier hand traps just to trade 1 for 1 against fricking Labrynth
CLASSIC Ganker take.
Versus getting locked out of playing my turn? Gee whiz Billy, why does your mom let you have ALL of the chromosomes?!
You think you have a choice? Running shitty handtraps won't win you any games, you'll be lucky if it buys you a single extra turn against Lab.
....You....do understand that banishing rollback is a cost right? You're suggesting lab is ready to jump through quite a few hoops just to try the same shit twice.
>stop Rollback
>lose to the other 4 cards your opponent has because Lab is a real deck that has a wincon beyond "resolve rollback"
No amount of Handtraps are going to save you. Lab will be tier 1 and there's nothing you can do about it.
Downplayers here will say otherwise.
>D.D. Crow on a trap that banishes itself and targets for cost
If you're holding crow, you obviously hold priority and banish the card before they can activate rollback. I'd think that's self explanatory but guess not.
...You do realize Crow banishes as effect, not as cost, right? You do realize that as soon as you target Rollback with Crow, even when in the GY, Rollback will be activated as a response, right?
shut up shut up shut up
frick you
he means target rollback before it has a target, or target another trap before rollback is in the GY to target it
are you living in some perfect game state world or something where your opponent has everything they need set up at all times?
>bwo just run these 6 garbage hand traps to stop rollback from resolving btw they only work if your opponent kind of bricked and even if you resolve rollback you still just lose to the rest of the deck as well as everyone who isn't playing Lab
I'm convinced that this is a Mannadium or SHS player trying to trick morons into giving him easy wins.
if that guy wants to run crow or not that's his prerogative. Idc either way
all I'm saying is anon I replied to is a moron for implying crow doesn't have applications against rollback
why the frick would a mannadium player want people to run dd crow? the only handtrap that kills that deck harder is droll
That anon's moronic, but you wait for them to activate Rollback in the GY which banishes itself, then you chain DD crow on their target causing Rollback to fizzle and also probably banishing Big Welcome so they don't get its GY effect or Tiny Welcome so they can't reset it.
>then you chain DD crow on their target causing Rollback to fizzle
Is that how it works? I'd assume that since Rollback already designated a target, the effect will be copied even if the card is removed from the GY.
It needs to check what the targeted card does on resolution so if it's not there then no effect.
So that means that the Ishizu shufflers might also work. Thanks for the tip, it even seems that the shufflers will become staples, especially with Snake-Eyes still running rampant.
Yeah, they'd work too so if you want some Lab on Lab violence you can aim to discard them on turn 0 with furniture.
>targets for cost
>banish the card before they can activate rollback
no need to crow first, just wait them to halve their LP
No VW doesn't play that many copies. They only want one. They send the first on turn 1 with beatrice then send Ghost meets girl on turn 2 with beatrice again.
Infernoble suck, no wonder Isolde still unlimited in OCG where roach mini game exist
The more pressing problem is that it is horrible at going second, and competitive players in the TCG coped with stuffing the deck with handtraps going second
>Master Rule 6: To special summon from the extra deck, you must return 1 card from your hand to the bottom of the deck
There, I fixed Yu-Gi-Oh
This doesn't fix troony decks like Labrynth
troony post
Lab isn't a problem
>le search everything chain link 5 infinite free recursion deck is not a problem
Every card printed after 2014( and lots of cards printed even earlier than that) is a problem.
You killed a frickton of petdecks for no reason, and you only got to make metapiles and floodgate piles stronger.
Also you may have come up with the most moronic MR I’ve heard in 23 years of playing this game
>t.Mathmech gay
You frickwad! I play Volcanic, a deck that would be greatly boosted by that rule and that doesn’t change the fact that what you are suggesting is the most moronic thing I’ve heard in my life related to Yugioh.
What's so bad about it? Petdecks are already dead in the water as it is. What difference does it make if it's poisoned water?
Petdeckgays like you just don't understand that this game isn't for you.
>Petdecks are already dead in the water as it is
Not versus other petdecks, what you are suggesting you extremely inbreed sack of shit will make people who used to play this for fun with their friends instantly quit.
>What difference does it make if it's poisoned water?
Because unlike all the other TCG Yugioh lives and prospers from those very same people and on the other hand they don’t care what metapigs do to one another until those cards get reprinted into the 10 or less buck price or when one of their petdecks gets hit with a ban out of the blue because a metapig was abusing their extender (hello half the Phantom Beast deck)
What you are suggesting would kill the game in a month. Hell something similar almost did once!
>Petdeckgays like you just don't understand that this game isn't for you
Quite the opposite, BEWD, DM, HERO, Toon and REBD sell this shit far above and beyond any meta deck has ever done…
Hitting extra deck summoning isn't a valid solution because it hits entire subtypes like synchro and link disproportionately, like the majority of those archetypes just become unplayable. The game's in too deep on that nonsense to address it now.
Special summoning is simply too easy and too common. Imagine if the only way to summon lady lab was to tribute summon her. No one would play the deck.
I don't even know how you'd hit special summoning at this point. Even dropping the roach is only semi-effective.
Shut the frick no one was playing level 5 or higher monsters unless they could special summon themselves
>imagine if you kill a deck no one would play that deck!
I legitimately don't understand some posts here
I agree. They SHOULD errata Welcome and Big Welcome to normal summon from the deck.
>allow mulligans but you lose 1 card every time you do it
>going 2nd player gets their draw in the turn player's draw phase
would be enough to
Only one mulligan, you only get it going second, and you lose the draw phase for invoking it. In a game that lacks hard limits beyond normal summons, something's gotta make some damn sense. Plus, it's arguably an actual downside to going first.
Actually, I want to amend this - you mulligan for how many cards you start your turn with. If you play 2 handtraps on your opponent's turn, you either draw for 4 in hand or mulligan for 3 in hand.
You have to pick if you want the mulligan to be Reload, or Magical Mallet
Magical Mallet-like mulligan is outright stronger than going first, because you get to curate your hand and put back bricks you don't want.
imo the only fair is the player who lost the coin toss (not go second) gets to mulligan once, after DP. becuse turn orders are already balanced around the DP. and you still skip your next DP if you mulligan.
It's all or nothing, but I guess you phrased it better than I did. It would absolutely be like Reload, you put it all in and you get the equivalent back.

would need to be playtested and tweaked a lot but fundamentally it would fix 3 big problems. namely giving both players a chance to build their board, battle phase no longer being useless, and OTKs being less prevalent.

you can just give alt accounts your event code from your main for a free swordsoul deck to use on solo mode.
I didn't think of that, I'm moronic.
Got a generic question. If I use something like BLS to banish a monster facedown, can a player use something like Pot of Inquisitveness or whatever to select those banished facedowns?
no because you can't "know" they're monsters
That seems a bit moronic, but alright.
You can only use cards that mention generic "banished cards" because that's all that they are. They're not considered banished monsters because being face down in the banish pile they could be spells/traps instead. Unless the card specifies you can do it with face down banished cards like Gizmek Naganaki
Face down cards are treated as unknown. So since PoAcquisitvness needs to interact with monsters specifically it doesn't work
Dis Pater or Nyannyan on the other hand CAN interact with face down banished cards and shuffle them back into the deck because all that it requires is a "banished card"
What the frick is a wyrm and how is it different from a dragon?
It's a way to make more dragons without supersaturating dragons even more.
Chinese dragons. Also do you really want dragons to have even more support?
Ban Wyverburster in paper already.
notdragons so swordsoul isn't dragonpile turbo
Imagine if tenyis were dragon typed. Now this is why wyrm exists.
Bastard dragons born from other species that got raped by a dragon.
Wyrm is "Phantom Dragon" in the same way that Sea Serpents are originally "Sea Dragons" and Dinosaurs are "Terror Dragons" in Japanese.
They're literally all just different types of dragon, and many cards like Uradora of Fate reference this in a way that's lost in translation.
>Opponent went first with this deck
>He surrendered immediately on Main 1
What happened?
He bricked or messed up his combo. Or maybe he needed to take a shit.
Had an unsalvageable hand, I guess.
Yu-Gi-Oh's at the point where if you go first and have bricked, you just leave.
Do I use my dust to build this deck or Snake Eyes like everyone else?
I don't know homie I'm not your dad
Whatever you do don't craft Utopia when he's bad for the deck and in the structure deck anyway. And don't waste materials on Ruddy Rose.
Other than that, who cares? Not like you need anything more than the second Chixao for the deck to be playable. Play it while missing a few cards and decide if you like it for yourself.
Snake-Eyes is only a good investment depending on how long Snake Ash lives. The moment they ban Snash then all those URs go to waste.
God I hate transaction rollback so much, it's one of those cards that will cause nothing but trouble from here on out.
If you play Nugioh you should just expect bullshit like that
>4 furniture
>the one trap that lab has to draw rather than set off of lady
Please play this in your deck instead of go second cards.
My luck has been absolute ass today. So many people drew both their calleds. So damn many of them.
I wouldn't call it lucky for them but I had an opponent that opened all 3 of their Maxx Cs. I play a deck that barely gives a shit about it, though. RIP that guy.
Now that I think about it, Diabellstar engine will also be pretty good in Lab, won't it? Simply by fact that it lets you discard a card to summon her, so you have another card that can dump Rollback to the GY if needed.
a freakin' Black person, mate
I lost all respect for rushtroons recently. too pozzed for modern yugioh, too dumb for actual old formats. the only game they can play is the one designed for literal small children. what a sad, useless existance.

It's going to be hilarious seeing a level 1 tuner die for Elf's sins.

Can transaction rollback target trivikarma to search?

Am I not activating trivi in the graveyard?
No, you're activating Trivikarma's effect. Activating a card means to play a spell/trap from hand or to flip one on the field.

When are we getting negate and banish for graveyard effects?
Most gay yard effects shuffle back or banish as cost so it's not really necessary. Crow was good for a while because tears and bystials shuffled/banished for effect
Deck suck dick but depending of meta, this can be enough to end a game.
how expensive is a flower cardian deck to build? It looks like their extra deck whites are ultra rares which sucks
Deck is xenofobic as shit, aside staples you only ever need 1 of each.
2 is better, but you should be pulling FTK not playing them.
The best way to play them is the FTK version and that version runs no URs
They should just make Solemn Strike a hand trap, honestly.

>Why did they need to make the extra deck insanely accessible
Kazuki Takahashi himself wanted this, he viewed fusions not being viable without dedicating an entire deck to them as a mistake and wanted to correct it, so he designed synchros. And he was 100% right, because Synchro era was the best Yugioh has ever been.

Dragon Link is dead. I think pic related can come back.
Reddit spy here, just want to let you all know that the Master Duel subreddit HATED the Goat tryout duel. If you didn't like it, you might be a Redditor!
The only complain I consistently saw both here and leddit where about gravity bind & level limit. Yet these same morons absolutely REFUSE to add extra backrow removal to their deck.
If the Goat event taught us anything, it's that frickheads are adamant about not changing their deck unless they have tournament results to copy from on MDM.
Eh, I think that like 6-9 anti-backrow 1 breaker, 1 MST, 1 Heavy Storm, 3 Dust Tornado, 3 Judgement is a good number to be expected to run in the maindeck, but when they can run 3 Level Limit, 3 Gravity Bind, and 3 Messanger of Peace then that eats up all your backrow removal since those are basically an instant win against most decks if you allow them to stay up.
You can go further and run more, or be obligated to also run 3 Magician of Faith or Mobius, but we're just getting into even worse levels than the Maxx C package here.
And heaven forbid you actually want to use your MST vs the mystery set, or the Wave Motion Cannon, and that's not even getting into them having the outs to your outs like Judgements of their own.
Having them all at 3 is just a bit much for best of 1. Same for 3 Reaper, 3 Marshmallon.
I just run 2-3 frost monarch, 3 dust, 1 MST because I fought so many stun in the event.
Bunch of morons. You can stack backrown removal in slower formats because ending with nothing on the field isn't a death sentence like in modern Yugioh.
Zoomers can't wrap their heads around backrow removal working differently in old formats. Modern yugioh has conditioned them to think sticking a HFD in your deck means you now have a dead card in 9/10 matchups.
To be fair, stall IS overpowered in the format we got. Not enough S/T removal, I was running dust tornados and mobius on top of heavy storm and MST, and I still kept getting stalled, because stall players also have Solemn to protect their backrow. MST absolutely would need to be at 3 in a format like this.
It's one thing to deny that stun can be countered by just making a quarter of your deck anti-backrow, and another to be against what that does for deck variety.
Too much removal and no presence and you risk getting run over by Gadgets. There isn't a deck that can do everything unlike modern Yugioh. You need to know when to call it and forfeit.
Yeah. I don't mind Bo1 in modern Yugioh, but side decking is far more important for older formats.
>oh, you drew your 9th anti-attacking floodgate?
>Well I'm only running 10 backrow removal cards, and you Judgemented one and the other I used on your Torrential Tribute in the early game
>Guess I have no possibility of ever attacking from this point on so you win GG
Why weren't you running this in the main? Alongside Jinzo?

Man, I really don't feel like playing this anymore after experiencing old yugioh again. I thought it was just nostalgia, but turns out batttlephase actually existing, and the game not being determined turn 1 WAS in fact a better game. No wonder they don't want to give us old yugioh in MD format permanently, they know no one will buy their new slop if they do.
I just view it as a different game.

DAMAGE REPORT!
What did you craft for this event?
Just Tribe-Infecting Virus and a frickton of Rs and Ns.
3 King of the Swamp so I could summon Dark Paladin and get BTFO by traps.
Virtually every single UR, but I did it on a throw away account. Only crafted SRs on my main.
2x Judgement(got 1 from the bundle.
1x Pot of Greed, Premat, and Snatch Steal.
0x regrets.
The regret is that we might never get this again, just like N/R, because the israelites at konami want to sell new fire slop.
Just add new rarities that come with animations. Like something rarer than royal that gives your Pot of Greed an animation.
This 4 day event was more successful at getting players to spend UR dust than any other event they've had thus far.
2 SR in total.
Sided in 2x Mystical Refpanel instead of crafting PoG because it is a plus 2 if I hit Pot of Greed and it determined the outcome of the game against burn decks. I would had lost 3 times if I had not hit a critical spell with Mystical Refpanel against burn and won me the game against Pacman and Aggro.

How is master duel compared to duel links? I remember playing duel links when it first came out and having good f2p deck but then they released an event and i didn't play it because i got burned out and when i came back after the event my deck was outclassed by cards that were no longer obtainable
In Master Duel, every deck is F2P.
In MD, you can craft any deck, including the newest slop, just in a couple of hours of play starting fresh. And if you keep up with dailies and event, you can have 10+ meta decks easily without paying a cent, just by playing less than an hour every other day. No grind walls, no character levels, no skills, no freemium currencies bullshit.
Duel Links is hyper israeli. You CAN make a f2p deck on DL, but the moment the next monthly set or event comes out then all previous decks are immediately powercrept.
Master Duel on the other hand is unironically the most F2P digital card game around, which was a huge surprise coming from the same company that made Duel Links.
You can get a new deck or two like every month. Whether you want to get whatever the hot new meta deck is or make something else is up to you.
It also doesn't take much grinding to max your monthly gems, but grinding also won't reward much beyond the easily obtained stuff.
The one caveat is that new stuff gets added to a new pack that lasts for 2 months. After that it'll take like 5 months to a year before it gets added to permanent packs. So anything that came out in the range of a year to 3 months ago can only be obtained by crafting which is much more expensive.
So it's easy to keep up with new releases, but harder to catch up if you're someone who needs to have everything. But just focus one deck at a time and write off certain ones until they're added to packs and that's not a big deal.
Master Duel is saved by the crafting system. It's very easy to build a meta deck on a fresh account. Once you've built up your "staples" collection it then becomes extremely easy to build new decks.
Master Duel is run by the OCG where decks are relatively cheap outside of alt or limited edition art.

figured it wouldn't activate since it was banished before resolution, but I suppose it also wasn't specifically negated.
you're basically asking why MST doesn't negate
that should answer your question
good to know. didn't really think of it that way
removing/destroying a card doesn't negate it's effect unless it's a continuous effect. You can chain MST to Fire Formation Tenki to stop it's search effect, but if you chain MST to Reinforcements of the Army it's effect still resolves.
Is Sleipnier (Runick) on MD yet?

Sometimes you gotta admire how simple but busted old cards are
>snatch and steal
>straight up just gimme your fricking card homosexual
LMAO
It's balanced by LP gain on your Standby and the fact that it's easy to counter.
The simplicity of old cards means they're either totally broken or totally shit.
It's a lot easier to balance a card when you can fit in activation conditions, costs, and restrictions.
>It's a lot easier to balance a card when you can fit in activation conditions, costs, and restrictions.
And yet they don't.
Snatch Steal is mediocre these days. Change of Heart is arguably better since it can't be outted with a destruction.
why wont they let it come off the banlist in MD then?
Equip card, which makes it easily searchable, it has no HOPT, which makes it easily loopable with bounce effects. Many decks can easily steal your entire board with it.
That means it's a turn 2 play and you played through your opponents 10 omni negate board. There's better ways to win instead of trying to steal their whole board. You basically confirmed it should be unlimited and boomer PTSD is a HELL of a thing to tip-toe around constantly. Case in point: why is this card banned still? Who, in good faith, would argue this is broken by today's standards other than buck broken boomers?
majespecters are based. I love how most of them are immune to being targeted and destroyed by card effects.
I wish they'd get rid of that rule holding Pendulums back where you can only pendulum summon 1 face-up extra deck pendulum unless you got link pointers.
Master Rule 4 could be completely eliminated and it still wouldn't be enough to push any pend decks to meta. That's how fast and deep the power creep is in modern yugioh.
>untargetable and destruction immune dpe
kirin is still strong but pends are so shit that they probably need it.
It's so gay that Majespector got support, but he didn't get unbanned even with the new support working with him
I think it's worth pointing out that they released snatch steal on the same banlist they banned Isolde. Snatch steal on it's own isn't crazy but Mikanko Warrior piles are a decent rogue strategy and with Ohime snatch steal essentially becomes searchable interruption.
Fair but one deck making 1 card crazy good probably shouldn't set a precedent that said card should be banned. It'd be like arguing that Branded despia REALLY makes Mirrorjade shine, but anyone can summon the card because Branded Fusion is a really silly card.
The issue is what the card does in this case though. Mirrojade is a good card that does a lot for the deck, but it's just a banish. Like the other comment mentioned, Snatch steal is OPT.
If you are playing a warrior pile deck you can search it with hidden armory, summon renaud off Isolde to get it again, use Ohime to get it a third time. That's 3 times you are stealing your opponents monsters. And Hidden armory can add from grave too, so 4 potential uses of yoinking your opponent's monsters. On top of Mikanko's other crazy equip spells like Water arabesque and Rondo.
Like, i don't think the card is super omega broken. Warrior piles don't suddenly become the best deck in the game, but I do think those decks become pretty degen with snatch steal around and I understand why they're hesitant to keep it and Isolde around in the same format.
It probably will come off sometime soon but I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't
*Snatch steal is NOT OPT.
I imagine this mistake was kinda obvious though
>Fair but one deck making 1 card crazy good probably shouldn't set a precedent that said card should be banned.
true it really should be cards from that archtype that get banned but then you start getting cards like crystron halqifibrax and Baronne that everyone can abuse. maybe we need a master rule that the extradeck needs a certain amount of representation in the main deck before it's allowed.
>Free interruption on either turn from a scale in any pend deck
Frick off, it might not be meta warping but nobody outside the minority of pend players wants Electrumite slop deck to have an extra interruption just for existing.
>Electrumite
one day konami will just ban this card.
>Using the Black person TCG ban list as a precedent for anything
Why would they? Pends would still be unplayable if Electrumite and Astrograph went to 3
>kirin
>pend scale effect

>I can't recover from 1 bounce that also removes 1 more potential blocker for my opponent
Funny that you think the bounce is the issue and not your shit deck building or tier 10 deck you're bringing to the table.
homie, most destruction nowadays is part of negate effect like Baronne, if anything snatch steal is better since as equip card you can bypass can't be targeted and non destruction negate, heck it can even counter monster that immune against activated affects like Expurrely Noir since equip card is continues effect
equiping is a target
"1 for 1 trade" cards in a bo1 mode is just..
not good
It's "Snatch Steal", not "Snatch AND Steal"
I don't think I've ever resolved Maxx C against a snake-eyes player
I did, but it was when they were nearly done with their turn, they were Snake-Eyes VS, and I got 2 draws.
Does it count?
shuffler is definitely giving them 1x ash or call every start
i never open the full combo + called by.
You don't deserve to
I definitely should've popped the token before the dracoback hit the field, but this was funny so I can pretend I did it on purpose
Whats the counterplay here

>losing to a Snake-Eyes player who tries activating in the Imperm column and takes 30 seconds per activation
Epic.
Aside from Omega is there any extra deck card that returns a banished spell/trap to the GY
I already miss 2004 format
well its never coming back, just like NR
NR is still by far my favorite. it was the only event I made up a deck entirely of my own, that was unlike anything I saw from other players. had a really good win ratio with it, too
if I remember right Sunseed was banned, but no one seemed to have figured out that the Sunavalon links still served as a nice stalling engine. and using Spore as a way to climb into Nirvana High Paladin was hilarious
Oh yeah shit I remember a bunch of people were trying out plants specifically because mark of the rose was legal.
For me, I was using my own take on stardust sifr divine dragon, which I still fiddle around in solo mode
I had a full performapal deck that could bounce the entire backrow and sometimes otk. It was surprisingly good.
>good ygo is over
what am i supposed to do now
ranked is shit
Labbros, how will your deck look after we get Transaction Rollback? I need some pointers. Obviously Ghost Meets Girl is a must, but I'm also seeing other options like EEV without the need of tributing a monster.
>ghost meet girl
Daruma is better.
Smartest labBlack person
Ghost Meets Girl in Lab is garbage. Rollback is copying your Lab traps. If you want a turn skip floodgate you can already tutor 7 different ones.
Konami needs to do an emergency banlist for Transaction Rollback. if they don't this will be actually become the worst meta we've ever seen and player count WILL drop.
Sure
>My friend purrely to 2
A deck abusing Beatrice can already lock you out of the game like 5 different ways and this will be no different, not a meta shaker.
Lab having 4 furniture instead of 6 makes Rollback worse, if they ever limit one or both of them the card is now effectively useless and same goes for the Black Goat trap coming later.
Not everything about meta you know. something cards can just lower the quality of games because they will be played. Kash is a good example of something not being meta defining(in master duel) but still annoying and lower the quality of matches Stun in general is a good example too but it's a somewhat necessary evil when a meta gets too bad so I would rag on it too much.
Generally that kind of stupid gimmick combo doesn't even manifest on ladder, because who wants to play a long inconsistent and fragile combo for hours? SHS already exists and there's like 4 Calamity decks, so this will be a drop in the bucket. I welcome people to play the deck that has 2 hard bricks.
>Generally that kind of stupid gimmick combo doesn't even manifest on ladder
I mean more in the case Lab but even so it happens more than you think.
>irl friend at locals told me to stick 3 copies of Kiriban on my Melffy deck
>it works
Surprise to see how easy you can reach 10 effects in one turn with sinple setups.
You can do it in VS as well! I did it on ladder several times. Also fun fact: SHS can reach the effect limit of kiriban before they can put up any meaningful interaction.
>her special summon condition is 10 cards or effects in total between both players
I hadn't realized, this changes everything.
I will cheat metanoise from gy using rollback and send havnis and make a fusion; and you can't stop me

disgusting tearshit doesn't deserve anything
Why is Calamity still legal?
They're still selling its enablers
I think it's amazing how a deck whose main endboard is I:P and a pop dominates as hard as it does just by having so much gas and bodies on board.
I want more Link Monsters for people who don't play Link decks. Cards like BLS Soldier of Chaos fall under that category. It stands on its own, not depending on a certain archetype or other link monsters. It's about as generic as it gets, just tribute three monsters with different names and you get a shiny big monster.
I got a royal one from those anniversary packs, and I use it as much as possible. It wins games if they don't have a kaiju, I love it.
At what point should I start spending gems? Should I just dump 1000 every time I get it or should I have a minimum amount saved up?
a little late, but I think you gotta make sure that whenever you do spend, you have 1000, and then target whatever UR you need for your next or current deck.
What I do, is craft some SR from a locked pack, dump 1000 on it and hope I either get the UR I need, or enough to dismantle to craft it.

CENTURION WHEN?
I DON'T CARE FOR LABtroony SUPPORT
later after konami bans calamity
after king calamity gets banned
Isn't that the only thing centurion does?
yes but we can't have that since they have to shill fire king
>I DON'T CARE FOR LABtroony SUPPORT
Me neither. I do feel this deck is shilled artificially by Konami. Are waifushitters so important to them?
>tfw royal Calamity
We all know full power Tearlament is the strongest deck of all time, but how does full power Snake-Eye stack up to full power Zoodiac, Dragon Link, Spright, and Kashtira?
fire king snake eyes is just as strong as tear
the only reason why tear is still stronger is because havnis allows tears to play during turn 0
>fire king snake eyes is just as strong as tear
Lol no. Japan recently did a no banlist tournament and Tear took places 1 and 2. Tear with full access to millers and shuffles is pants on head moronic and will mog 99% of all decks unless they get shifter/macro/dfissure cucked. Just the shufflers alone mog fire cucks.
The only way snake eyes is standing up to full power dragons or zoo is if they can play S:P and the others can't. Even spright is in a league above snake eye.
>sprightshit
>above anything
You'd think that since you've never had to deal with Toad spam.
Who cares about Kiriban?
Thats just another win more card
I do, I care.
Kiriban is cool and is the protector of the melffys! She should have a fully archetype!
So i like yubel and with the support she has in the future she might be good but what can i do with her in master duel until the support arrives and what cards should i be crafting.
the deck is nearly entirely the new support so only existing stuff you'd need is the standard staples and the super poly targets
Yubel does literally nothing without the 10 training wheels they add later. Unless you time travel to Duel Links years ago when Yubel Fire King was a thing.
>Yubel does literally nothing without the 10 training wheels they add later. Unless you time travel to Duel Links years ago when Yubel Fire King was a thing.
I just enjoy playing jank.
Yubel pre support isn't even jank it's Mystic Tomato and hope they can't out a battle immune monster like it's 2008 tier.
Among the current duel links lures yubel is one of them, you can normal neos or yubel without tribute, evolve yubel for free
>evolved cards outside your deck
Then add super poly, miracle or poly to your hand
>outside your deck
Its currently everwhere and while not on the tier list kluger and wiseman cheeses wins, and you can still fusion into any other heroe without restrictions
>playing DL in 2024
>handholding baby skill to play the deck for you

Like the mayakashi skill that dumps the extra deck to the grave fully it comes down to basically skip a chunk off a combo
Also
>speed duel
If you are poor or dont care about the anime then u would not understand the appeal of late season yudai's eyea glowing and talking about feeling Yubel in his ass
>Dark Ruler into Evenly
Snake Eyes isn't too much of a problem
Better pray Snake-Eye is gutted before the Fire King support releases. Evenly becomes a dead card in that matchup.
I will simply not play against anybody using meta decks during that period.
They need to start hitting handtraps the same way they hit floodgates, sick of the modern format of cram 20 handtraps with 20 one card combos.
It won't happen so I guess I need to accept it or drop the game till the next meta I like arrives if it ever happens.
They would have to reboot the game entirely at this point to fix the one card combo problem.
Just play all gas
I've got some decks like that and they are fun but they can be very difficult to draw well with going second and shit like the wieneraroach and droll will still kill you.
The game is fundamentally luck heavy trash I don't know what else to tell you.
I'm just bitter, I thought I'd enjoy a casual climb in platinum I switched to VW at P2 and dropped to P4 in a hour because both the deck is weaker and I lost to every kind of handtrap, droll, Maxx, ash, nib, imperm, etc.
I should have waited a week for more people to leave the bracket before trying VW.
>Why don't you make baronne before 5th summon?
I do when the hand permits it but even so if I make it then use it on nibiru, which I did, I now have a 3k beater and shenshen pretty much which isn't going to cut it.
>If you want to play VW wait for rollback and turbo beatrice
Noooooooooooooooooooooooo, it's just VFD all over again and frick that.
VW doesn't lose to Nib or Imperm, you are playing the deck wrong. Especially fricking Imperm, all of your cards activate on the hand or grave.
>opponent saves imperm for their turn
>imperms shenshen
>use baronne on nib
>now have no negate
Enlighten me, I'm willing to listen oh wise one.
Can't do that because of le roach
I could with Dark World before supersloppy taught MD players that Droll existed.
Dark World can deckout roaches. Normal decks can't.
ban Maxx C and handtrap usage drops by half
That would be a start, why they let that sacky cross out at 1 is beyond me, remember when it was at 3 at launch WTF were they THINKING?
Handtraps are good and healthy interaction when they're a 1 for 1 trade like Ash/Belle/Veiler/Imperm, they promote paying attention to your opponent's lines going 2nd and playing around them going 1st
They are bad when they're lingering like Droll/Shifter/Maxx C or even Lancea because they require no though on timing due to their effects lasting for the turn
>I need to accept it or drop the game till the next meta I like arrives if it ever happens.
I just want a jank ranked option if a card has more than a certain % usage in meta ranked then limit and the more it's used the harder it's hit.
>playing a blue eyes player
>setting traps though effect so he knows what's where
>he keeps trying to mystical space typhoon them

Are there really people who don't understand MST in 2024?

>lababboon boasting about beating blue eyes running mst
A deeply weak people
Wasn't boasting just wondering how people don't understand cards that are older than 90% of thia thread.
Assblassum? Never heard of her. Maxx C? Never Ceen em.
Congrats on the transition yusaia

Get that wiener out of your mouth and speak like a true duelist.
