What were they thinking with Dracotail? How can it be okay for them to be able to fusion summon using monsters from the deck, and have those monsters have GY effects, and have the fusion summoned monster add them back to the hand when they're done, AND wipe the board at the same time? Does k*nami just assume that a card is weak if it doesn't have an omninegate?

>>559049886
hes right, win con for paper scum is rule sharking and abusing time rules. most of these consistent high level players traveling to poor countries so they can coast to worlds on easy wins against poverty stricken children playing pre 2019 decks.
even pointing this out will get you banned from tcg, and tcg troon mafia will come after you

Konami did this "complete 3 duels" mission several months back, and then stopped doing it. Why are they so inconsistent with it? It's one of the few rare good things they've done.

>>559053223
When people talk about it being hard to play they're talking about going first combo builds. They would make like, Apo+Dweller+Toad+set up Edge Imp Scythe in hand for a pop with Cruel Whale.
Going second OTK builds are a lot simpler.
Also the deck is just kinda bad now even ignoring that it lost all its good endboard pieces. Its consistency isn't good and it always had like no room for non-engine.
>>
>>559053223
they are notoriously hard to pilot as a combo deck, less so as an OTK deck but they still have a lot of complexity and it's a very non-linear deck
they have a lot of board clearing with Tiger and Whale and can push for game with stuff like Kraken or even bridge into other things like rank 8's
deck's kinda bad right now though, even if there's a few psychos that do their best to make it work, wait for support before thinking about it and since it's an anime archetype it's never out of the question for it to randomly pop up

People can say whatever ED summoning type they want to is the weakest but that type will always come back as the best deck in the game the second Konami decides it's time to make a new good archetype around it. Like when MD released there were no good fusion archetypes so people said that it was just too outdated of a mechanic even though things like Brilliant Fusion had already existed for ages.

>people underestimating doomz and radiant typhoon
both of these decks can keep up with post-nerf k9 vs and dracotail (Even with branded support). They just didn't see play because maliss gatekept them out of the format by playing in an entirely different dimension.

>>559057791
DoomZ is OK, but it's not some underappreciated gem of a deck. If it were just Maliss gatekeeping it then it would be played in paper now. Full power Maliss is better than current best paper decks.
Radiant Typhoon is pretty good though.

What are the cool things you can do with Ass Mode now? I know how the new engine basically works but what's the payoff? When I looked for gameplay I only saw people turboing out a couple Stardust Assault Modes which just makes it seem like worse Centurion.

you get your choice of two level 8 synchros if you're using them as an engine. You're synchro locked tho. You can also play red nova assault mode with the new resonator stuff for a consistent non-targeting field wipe whenever the opponent does anything.

I hate the way Konami handles lore decks.
I already know DoomZ is going to be shitty on release because their good cards come in Blazing Dominion so you basically waste gems on unplayable garbage that will only be useful months down the line when the packs are gone from the shop. Basically a ponzi scheme

Typhoon, Doomz, and Gouki come out all at once. Funny, they were the only archetype cards ive been waiting for from the DOOD set.

K9 as an engine works so well that it can function even in a deck that doesnt have lv5s. goukis are very searchable so they have no problem getting their lv5 for jokul. So it will work but like most k9 builds, it's just not the optimal way of mixing them compared to VS or Crystron

Radiant Typhoon is a meta threat, DoomZ has rogue tops and gets a lot better with its second wave, Assault Mode is fun, and Gouki

KKK deck is the clown one, the face of the deck is even wearing blackface. He's not racist thougheverbeit, all his friends are minorities and his wife is a loli goblin (unreleased, will probably be 2nd wave support, but she's on a trap card).
>>
>>
>>559061523
average hand is okay can probably push through a handtrap going first. going second it's really good as long you have diabellstar and don't get maxx c'd after activating dark ruler. I cut chorozo to add chaos angel because there is a lot of dracotail. it wasn't coming up enough

i'm trying really hard to not call you a retard, but holy shit some of you people seem incapable of seeing anything further than the tip of your nose.
cards don't exist in a vaccum, they have a framework they function in, and ideally (if the designers do their job properly) cards end up balanced.
jupiter is absolutely fine for what he is meant to do, and power patron doomz being an ignition effects makes what would be a broken card into a good card.
doomz with the blazing dominion support is fine, not tier 1 but still decent, you praise artmage but there is a reason why doomz is seeing meta success in the ocg while artmage is essentially non existent.
>>
>>
>>
>>559067995
i don't know about tcg but in the ocg the order is
1- elfnote, solid top 3 deck
2- doomz, noticeably behind the top 3 but that's essentially the case for all decks outside of kewl tune/mitsurugi/elfnote
3-artmage, far behind doomz, sees very little success
i think in master duel artmage might be better than doomz? but i'm not sure sure, artmage by itself is worse than doomz, but it has good k9 synergy
>>
>>
>>559067550
Some staples like max C and Typhon for example are only available from master pack, and master pack is God awful to pull so yeah you craft those. You should have a deck in mind already to decide which pack you pull. If you're gonna do K9 deck for example you pull the latest selection pack until you get most of the K9 cards, then craft whatever you still need once you have like 2 ofs or 3 ofs of what you need

>>559070832
Elf is something I might add over SP I am still testing stuff out since we got 3 poplar back but the deck has a lot of synergy between the azamina continuous spell being a tribute that can trigger your mitsu stuff the synergy between yummy and snake eye and the azamina stuff being lvl 6 to make savage and mitsu stuff being lvl 8 which makes baron really helps too. I might take out one copy of TTT for acro yummy field spell for more disruption too.

Just play a deck with non-extra deck removal.
Its one of the reasons why I like K9VS despite it being a bricky mess and harder to effectively use compared to Dracotail: it can deal with some stun decks.

Going first, finishing your turn with only 1 card in hand does stop them from normal summoning their full combo, such as Noroi.
But they still have other starters.
Guess why Jokul was limited.

Gotta love how they censored masquerena's yoga pants (?) that don't show her cameltoe even in the original OCG art, but left her fucking high-string panties and weird mesh top (which implies she's using pasties or something similar to cover her nipples, because the mesh is see-through) intact.

Let's take a look at Dracotail disruptions
>Flame's face-up Spell negate + draw 1 (could be a handtrap)
>Horn's attack position return to the hand + draw 1 (could be a handtrap)
>Sting's monster + spell/trap GY banish + draw 1 (could be a handtrap)
>Faimena's quick effect fusion summon during the opponent's turn, usually Arthalion or Gulamel
>Pan's monster destroy if used as fusion material
>Urgula's spell/trap destroy if used as fusion material
>Mululu's monster negate if used as fusion material
>Arthalion can recycle monsters equal to the number of fusion materials, which means he can recycle handtraps after using Pan/Urgula/Mululu, plus he can also revive itself
>Gulamel can target and destroy if chained to a Dracotail card, plus can also revive itself
Tech disruptions:
>Secreterion floodgate
>Khaos destroy
>Hieratic Seal
>Sanctifire floodgate
Gee that's more disruption than Maliss. And people say it's a fun deck to play against.
Today can we hit even lower numbers than yesterday?

Maliss disruptions after Apollousa ban but before Ransom ban:
>Allied Code Talker omni-negate
>Binder banish 3 in any GY (plus draw 4 in total if combined with Chessy)
>Crypter banish 1 on the field
>MTP banish 1 on the field
>Firewall return to the hand
>Linguriboh trap negate
Note that Maliss in the Mirror isn't considered because it wasn't used as disruption unless you opened it and didn't need it for the combo.
For Maliss disruptions after Ransom ban, you have the possibility/alternative to replace:
>Firewall return to the hand
With:
>Fancy Ball field/GY negate + little knight jumpscare

They do work with each other, but not every deck can do it.
Maliss can do it.
Live Twins can do it.
Anything that can use Masquerena can do it.
The problem is that her negate is simply weak. The restriction on the turn that she's special summoned wouldn't be an issue if she could negate monster effects from the hand.

Her negate isn't weak. Banishing instead of destroying or not even removing the monster at all is a good tradeoff for not being able to hit monster effects in hand/banish.or deck/extra deck lmao
It's a bit of a shame that she has the turn restriction but whatever. It'd be nice if it was instead a "once while face up on the field" like Baronne instead so she could reset herself but she's meant to work with IP and that's not really a deal breaker.
The only issue with the card is that nobody is playing link decks so nobody is playing decks that want to summon her over something less generic, and also your opponent won't likely be on a link deck so you won't get to use that part of the effect.
I bet if the Unchained support is any good we'll be seeing her played in the OCG. I've been using her with Soul of Rage in FS Live Twins and like you say she's quite strong there.

She doesn't have to use herself as material like IP does. If your deck produces enough bodies you can just link 2 other monsters off for SP then still have her negate. This is especially good if you're playing something that produces incidental bodies on the opponent's turn, like summoning Lacrima from the GY or stealing one of their guys as quick effect or summoning something like Spright Blue with Elf for followup, or summoning both Evil Twins with Sunny.

>>559113823
Raigeki is so hilariously outdated if they wanted to bring it back it should read something like
>Destroy all monsters your opponent controls then special summon [archetype] monsters from your deck or GY equal to the number of monsters destroyed by this effect.

Every decent archetype has destruction protection. If you aren't better protected than a dragon maid end board, you have no chance being tiered
Illusion Gate is an absolutely bonkers card, only kept in check by saying "destroy" instead of "send to GY"

I don't even really get the going first board since you can set something REALLY fucked up but without VS (which you probably shouldn't do because raigeki has your name) or you backpedal for VS stuff and prioritize Izuna and Hollie in your hand and you end the board with Rock/Izuna/something instead of full what the fuck is that. That's how everyone's playing VSK9, right?

Raigeki isn't a fantastic card, but it's not destruction protection that's the deciding factor keeping it from play. It's:
>layered endboards
>negates
>floating effects
And most importantly:
>being a going second card
It was still commonly played in Tenpai when that was a deck people were playing, because when you're already going second, and you're not trying to slam it down alone to win you the game and can instead force your way through all of the above, then it can actually work.
Gem-Knight OTK would likely be running at least somewhat often it if it didn't shut down Quartz+Scatter Fusion.

That depends on a lot of thing.

I've always wanted a format that is just the normal format with the top meta decks banned so rogue decks have a better chance to shine. That's essentially what Genesys is so I like it.
But I think they're jumping through a bunch of unnecessary hoops to make it instead of just being blatant about its intentions of making people play other decks and that has its issues. And blanket banning every link+pendulum card is stupid and feels like yugiboomer pandering. Heaven forbid someone wants to play Nemleria in a lower powered format!
Overall I'm glad it exists.

First tell is the name being a string of gibberish or "wuli".
Second, they play weird decks with only free and/or N/R cards.
They take long to play and freeze if you use cards that give them choices.
Their strategy is normal summon beatdown.

To add, also sometimes its possible to see bots using crooked cook or other simple relatively straightforward decks.
But its very, very, very rare since often they just want to climb to platinum 5 and play enough games for the maximum daily gems from drops, and you if you can play 24/7 you don't need a good deck.
Besides, spending on a deck goes against the goal for running bots: selling accounts with the most resources possible.
Running bots is only profitable in third world countries since their currency is inflated and the value of their electricity is lower.

it's a cool mechanic that unfortunately didn't keep up with the times, it was way better before crimson dragon became a thing, and it also needs the boss monsters to be designed like crimson blader was. If the deck gets another wave in a few years, this would be what I hope they fix.
Regardless, playing sometghing because it looks and feels cool is way better than playing something because it's meta

The concept of "Hey, remember those boss monsters? What if they had powered up main deck forms where you release their limiters?" is pretty cool but like you say they need Crimson Blader's shuffle back effect like all the Metalmorph bosses got to not feel awful, and Stardust being a recyclable omni overshadowing the rest is boring. I wouldn't mind seeing a retrain of the trap too. I get not wanting to replace Vanilla Blue-Eyes but is anyone going to be upset over Assault Mode Activate being replaced by a better card?
Fuck it, just make a link 1/contact synchro that summons by shuffling back the shitty trap and does something for the deck if they are going to force you to play it.

Because it is now, but it wasn't before.
The cards you see in MD, for example, are images.
But before opening the game they are actually a combination of different assets: not a single image.
This is the same with other sims, such as edopro.
A card frame, icons, text strings and card art are combined into an image.
>>
>>
If they didn't use this "combine different assets" method the game size would more than double.
As far as I'm aware they've been doing it since the tag force games (those were the only ones I actually bothered to replace textures for higher quality ones), but they might as well have done it before.

One of the petdecks I like it materiactor. I mix them with fiendsmith because they can use djinn as a bridge, I also use xyz armor cards to equip something to go into necroquiped princesd

I miss playing Zoodiac Lunalight almost a decade ago. It was an almost perfect deck. But now... even if Bull gets out of jail it won't ever be used because Liger turbo is just that good.
It took the entire diversity and potential out of the deck. It revolves entirely around Liger now.
Lightsworns are fated to suffer forever since people fear the mill.

It's at 2 because 1 copy is Droll and the other is Lock Bird :)

>made a dumb mistake in an unimportant game because I didn't realize I had an easy, game-winning out in SP (used to being locked or just playing decks that dont have SP)
>suddenly feel like I'm the worst player to have ever existed and like I have never played a good game in my life
how do I stop thinking like this

I think usually in games I do manage to stay calm unless I'm on like 5 seconds of time, I just don't really see outs and lines until after the game's over. Like here I only realized I had a win the game button in the form of SP well after the game was over and I let the huge buster blader kill me
I guess it's a new deck for me and I gotta get used to actually having non-archetypal options in an ED for once, I might as well use the low ladder I'm in rn to make dumb mistakes like this so I don't make them in more important games later on, that's how you learn
>>559141270
I'll sometimes make a chart when I'm learning a deck and keep it on the second monitor during the first few actual games so I can quickly check it and not mess up, but once I've got it down I'll never use it again

I freestyle snake eyes and then fuck up and end on a weak board all the time
Same with white forest.
I'm not good with combo decks but I like the decks...

Pure Mitsurugi
What is an extra deck?
Aramasa is only played at 1 and extra copies can just be Lamia or Manju
Prayers is the only UR at 3x after Habakiri semi-limit
You can cut down Murakumo to 1x if you're willing to brick on Futsu
That's 7 URs

buy two or three copies of the structure deck, craft a couple cards and that's it
>but it's not competitive
simply trust your opponent does not have outs to towers and they will in fact not have them

Actually writing down notes as I play helps me a lot. It started as just tracking my coinflips, because I got a ridiculous 8 or something in a row, but then I started adding notes to it. Things I did well, reasons why I lost, what I could've done differently, etc.

I'm a bit surprised I've never seen anyone play the Feather Storm Turbo Apophis build. Not that I think it's better than other builds, just that it's the sort of thing I'd expect people to play anyway.

I guess it comes down to whether you've ever played a t1 deck before or if it's something you've just felt
if you've never tried it, there's a good chance if you played something that has just infinite recursion it'll awaken something in you
and if you have and just didn't like it, then it's possible it just didn't click with you and you wanted something more unique/quirky
honestly nothing wrong with either option though

I always make charts because my brain is mush. I mainly use them when I'm learning a new deck, though.

Duelist Cup isn't that competitive if you're not grinding stage 2. Getting to the second stage is like getting from Plat 5 to Plat 1 but with more lenience towards not ranking down. And much easier than that if you just want to get 95% of the gems.
So just play whatever as long as it isn't total dogshit.

This sort of shit is why the actual Lab players here spent so much time during its heyday trying to convince people that doing stupid combos to try and turbo out a sacky floodgate is inferior to actually playing out a control game by setting up some basic interruptions+a powerful resource loop.
Look at how he threw all his eggs into that one basket and started his turn with fucking nothing so instantly lost when the floodgate didn't win him the game on the spot.

Anyone else like a card but hate their archetype?
For me it's alt art Diabellstar (I don't really care much for White Forest nor Snake Eyes) and alt art Evil Twins (too much combo wombo on all variation except pure and pure is too weak)

Izuna's one of the cutest girls they've made in a long time but K9 is very boring. It's like Ryzeal in that all it does is have a bunch of monsters that special from hand then plus. It makes Kashtira combos look interesting in comparison.
The other K9s are cool too. The concept of werewolf and werewolf adjacent police officers who remove their limiters in order to rank up is cool. Sadly in practice it's just the most basic Rank X spam gameplay.
That sort of deck can be cool in older formats but when the toolbox has been largely replaced by endboard pieces and decision making is just "how many bodies can I get out at once" instead of weighing risk and reward, it just isn't interesting anymore. Modern decks need to have some cool gimmick or take more thought to pilot.

Labyrinth grind game in 2026 is weak sauce as fuck. It doesn't help that Dragoon in particular is stupid hard to out for the deck, your only counter is baiting them into negating something then using Daruma Karma Cannon (Which no smart Dragoon player will ever do). That's why Labyrinth players are increasingly falling back into these hail mary plays.

yeah that was his only mistake, if he had waited until the opponent committed to the gaze play he would have actually done some damage, who cares if the opponent summons a single DMOD, wait until you can actually make them waste resources
