BEFORE asking to be spoonfed, try the following:
● Read the cards.
● Lurk
● Read the cards please.
● Google your Deck before you post it here. If your deck is/was competitive it will probably have topped an event.
● Most games have single rounds or a best of three match; matches are encouraged as they teach you to make use of your side deck for tournament play.
● Remember to playtest and try suggestions before you trash them, even if someone recommends a weird tech choice. You don't know everything.

I'm happy with the new gemini support that's coming in Invasion of Venom
Now I wish that this guy also receives some new support maybe a new deck like Felgrand
Tellarknight Vatraemus
Rank 4 DARK Warrior-Type Xyz Effect Monster
ATK 2600
DEF 550
Materials: 2 Level 4 “tellarknight” monsters
(1) All face-up monsters become treated as DARK-Attribute.
(2) You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then discard 1 card; Special Summon 1 LIGHT “tellarknight” monster from your Extra Deck by using this card as Xyz Material (This is treated as an Xyz Summon, and Xyz Materials attached to this card also become Xyz Materials on the Summoned monster.), but for the rest of this turn, you cannot Xyz Summon monsters. This effect can be activated during either player’s turn, if you have 7 or more “tellarknight” monsters with different names in your Graveyard.

l-lol..?
https://youtube.com/watch?v=39ZKDKMBf58
>>48161004
Cuz they shit mate
>>48161005
I've only lost one shadow duel. Also I've never netdecked. Neck myself mate.
I wanted to start YGO from a while and I was thinking of building an Exodia deck because of a mix of nostalgia and having recently watched the first series, is it possible to win some games with such a deck?
Also can someone explain to me why I can't use asian cards during events?
>>48161036
If they're shit then why are they consistently one of the best decks right now?
>>48161045
Yeah, Exodia decks are possible, but they're mainly built around stalling.
>>48161051
>zero tops in OCG
>best deck
>can't even be qualified for Worlds
Only reason they even top in TCG is because Tewart slaughtered PePe, Qlis, and Shaddolls. If they didn't get their hits Kozmos wouldn't be doing shit. Compare the number of tops pre Emergency banlist and after
>>48161045
Because asian cards are part if a different game called the OCG, we play the yugioh TCG.
>>48161102
They don't top in the OCG because they're TCG exclusive.
>>48161160
What's your point? I'm still right and I already stated that you burger.
>>48161102
If the OCG had Kozmos they'd be tier 0 and everyone knows it.
>>48161081
Great, from what people told me they're like mtg combo decks right?
In mtg I only played midrange and aggro a change of pace should be fun.
>>48161103
So there are actually different rules?
That's a strange marketing decision.
>>48161246
Spotted the retard
>>48161293
The TCG deck to get ported over to the OCG is STILL dominating, why wouldn't this, even better deck, do the same?
>>48161261
Different cards, actually. We have stuff like Kaijus and Kozmos, they have ABCs and D/D/D.
>>48161311
The last* TCG
>>48161311
Were Kozmos ever tier 0 in TCG?
Do you even know what the fuck is Tier 0?
You're a shitter who knows nothing about the game. BA is different in that in can still use 2 other engines to keep the deck alove. All Kozmos have is a shitty field spell card to blow up their hand. And EASILY dies to side decks.
>>48161358
Komzo are tier 1 in the TCG, which is more that enough to get tier 1 in the less powerful OCG.
They had to kill monarchs and almost kill BA just to let metalphoes and ABC compete for fuck sake.
>>48161261
Exodia is solitaire, so yes it's a lot like mtg combo decks. You just draw and stall until you hit all 5 pieces.
Dont be surprised if everyone quits immediately upon seeing you masturbate.
>>48161384
>Tier 1 = Tier 0

>generic shit makes exclusive cards better
What?
>triple vanity

>full power blue-eyes
That can't beat kozmos
>ABCs
Which are dog shit
>abyss dweller beats kozmo
Then why don't mermails, which are full power and run 3 dweller, ever beat Kozmo? Is it because relying on 1 card to shut down an entire deck is stupid? I think it is.
>>48161509
>ABCs are bad
Someone's delusional.
>>48161688
Anything that tops one format and not the other is bad, just ask >>48161102
>>48161324
So basically there are cards that are exclusives to one game and are not in the other.
>>48161421
That's ok, people already leave the room when I masturbate anyway.
>>48161456
ABCs can't be that good, they haven't topped in the TCG.
>>48161456

>main character of Arc V part times as a clown/circus entertainer
time for kink sex!
also I never watched the show....but explain why did they cross dimensions into 5D?
>>48166329
It's not actually 5ds, and has nothing to do with the 5Ds story. It's just a dimension of synchro users that just happens to have jack and crow lookalikes.
>>48166329
Yuma pulled a Made in Heaven at the end of ZeXaL which destroyed all yugioh timelines and reset everything. These are all alternate history parallel universes starring most of the same characters.

Well that was unexpected
>>48161004
To be serious, Kozmo got crunked by the OCG banlist and Worlds uses a shared list between OCG and TCG.
>>48166452
I thought Leo and Yuusho said that they separated summoning types into 4 different dimensions
>>48167686
>separated summoning types into 4 different dimensions
wait wut
so thats they're excuse for why 1 type of special summoning is the dominant/only alt form? so one dimension gets synchros, one gets xyz, etc?
>>48160090
So how do YOU guys have your Frightfur/Fluffal decks built?
anyone else planing on playing darklords when the new ones release
>>48168770
I've been running 3 fusion tag and its made sabretooth and chimera much easier
>>48169104
I hear the current meta is not running chimera and light on tigers honestly.
How do you reliably run Chimera anyway?
>>48169133
Meant to say Leo, not Tiger.
I have no idea what I'm doing
>>48169204
pic is for ants!
>tfw DN is kill
>>48169204
Anon, Digital Bugs are BEYOND awful. Literally the worst archetype in years, no memes.
>>48169333
I run Cyberdarks, do you think I give a shit about whether archetypes are competitively viable? I just want to run with something I like the best I canfor fun
>>48168770
The goal is to make wolf and tiger with at least 3 material each.
>>48169434
Well sure, but what do you choose for your:
>spell/traps
>XYZs
>>48169422
Ditital bugs aren't fun either. Sorry anon, but they suck on both fronts.
>>48169454
>running XYZ scum cards
>in FLUFFALS
Fusion master race anon.
>>48169458
Are you saying that all the fun I've been having with that deck was not real fun?
>>48169550
It wasn't as much fun as the fun you could be having playing any other deck.
>>48169550
Yes anon.
>>48169133
the "If this card attacks or is attacked, your opponent cannot activate cards or effects until the end of the Damage Step." part makes a good way to remove monsters that are in the way and gives you more damage for potential otk
>>48163229
U mean revolt-r they just released more info its like 40 cards plus a promo so most likely a tribute engine and a stronk af gadjiltron dragon but no fusions -__-
>>48169608
>>48169579
Then what decks are currently 100% 3rd-party-tested officially certified fun™
>>48168770
We turbo maxed out wings engine instant fusions for norden or sheep then into Tooth or r4 and 2-3 king of the swamps
>>48169749
Since you can apparently find digital bugs fun, an extemely linear archetype that bricks hard and doesn't even get wins easily to make up for it, I'm going to say literally every deck in the game.
AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHHAHA
>>48170091
Konami can be real funny sometimes.
>>48170091
I don't get it.
I'm guessing it has something to do with the banlist?
>>48170150
Yes, those are banned cards and Thousand-Eyes is now unbanned. They did similar joke where they arrested a card for smuggling pot of greed.
>>48170167
Now I see it. good joke.
And I'm guessing you mean the "sangan takes the wrong train" series?
>>48170206
Ye.
>>48170206
poor sangan
>>48170396
That's a neat, flavorful card. Too bad Yugioh never has flavor text on effect monsters.
>>48170520
> Too bad Yugioh never has flavor text on effect monsters.
they dont have space
also I'm sure if they did, some of them would be japanese puns that dont translate well
>>48170564
That's another reason I don't play yugioh anymore. I can't read font that small, keywords are objectively superior.
That's also a really silly card for a number of reasons.
>>48170619
Blame the game being designed around Japanese language's advantage of needing to write less characters for their words. The effects themselves are usually simple, it's just the game has a lot of summoning and activation requirements that takes up most of the text space.
>>48170520
Flavour text on that card would just ruin the joke though.
>>48170619
>I can't read
Don't worry, neither can the rest of the playerbase. We just look at the pictures and guess.
>>48170788
given how bad many magic cards are...yeesh ygo could be even worse
especially they would be more kid friendly
>>48170828
I don't actually remember quotes being used in YGO flavor text. Usually the flavor text is the monster's description, or some lore hint.
>>48170973
>some lore hint
The lore is almost exclusively in the cards art, and never featured in the flavour text.
>>48170828
>>48170973
Joke flavor text aside. Some of the flavor in ygo can be pretty dark sometimes.
For example Dragon Horn Hunter (pic). And this is the translation of her newest form's flavour:
A female warrior possessing power beyond the likes of normal men, that she gained from the spurts of blood that come from dragons she slays. Her soul is now stained with the grudges of the dragons she's slain, and it's been reduced to a wicked dragon core that spreads their plague. Without a home to return to, dying her blade with blood has become something she does without even thinking, and she no longer remembers what her original goal or purpose even was.
>>48171024
Anon I think you forgot something.

Aand forgot pic.

>what is Qliphort Scout
And speaking of Qliphs, Monolith has one of my favorite flavour text. To bad it got censored in the TCG cause can't reference biblical stuff.

JP Flavour trivia:
>The apparent error dump in this card's Japanese flavor text below the "===CARNAGE===" header contains two streams of reverse text (similar to "Evilswarm Heliotrope"), one in English and one in Japanese:
>The English stream of text reads "God is angry on your doing and want to bring fire flood", a reference to Noah's Ark in the Old Testament.
>The Japanese stream of text is written alternately in hiragana/kanji and katakana to obfuscate it; when converted to the proper grammar it reads 「見よ人は我々の一人のようになり善悪を知るものとなった彼は手を伸べ命の木からも取って食べ永久に生きるかもしれない」 ("Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:"). This is a direct quote from the biblical verse Genesis 3:22, and references the tree of life in the Old Testament.
EN Flavour Trivia:
>In the TCG, the error dump is replaced with an error message enciphered using the Atbash cipher, which when deciphered references both streams of text in the original Japanese flavor text. In English, it reads "Contact with the Sacred Tree is forbidden. The scourge has been unleashed.".
>>48171119
tl;dr
Also most of that was in Japanese so I couldn't read it anyway.
>>48171053
From the wiki.
>>48171136
Here's the english one then, complete gibberish if you don't know that stuffs' hidden in the text (same thing with JP flavour.)
>>48171179
"Contact with the sacred tree is forbidden. The scourge has been unleashed."
It's basic reverse alphabet cipher.
If there's one thing Pendulums did right, it's giving Normal monsters an effect. This way, we could have both an effect and flavour text.
King Arthur got a weird one
So with the death of tgo pro and Dueling Network people are saying that if Dev pro dies then yugioh will pretty much die.
do you guys think this is accurate?
how will you react if yugioh dies?
>>48173752
I will start by calling you a moron for thinking that percy is dead, percy will never fucking die because once you download it you can use it forever and it's still getting updates, your own damned fault if you played it on android.
>>48160090
i just got a 2005 rocket warrior tin (sealed) for 30 AU dollars.
Do I open it or do I keep it sealed...
>>48174543
Open it, post results. Sealed products tend to not hold value unless it's some serious nostalgia pandering or just shit that's never been reprinted.

>>48175534
oh shit is it? I did not even know haha
>>48175565
Yeah, Monarchs are fucking cancerous right now, especially since their main fucking thing now is being able to Tribute YOUR monsters on YOUR turn. So it's the perfect side deck out to them. Which everyone needs to run at 3. You can guess why it's 10 bucks.

This "unusable with pre-prep" meme has to stop.
>>48179511
it works with regular prep at least
>>48179511
Pre-prep is a free +1 in ritual decks that sets them up to do their one important play, of course konmai wouldn't let it go free. At least I can have fun with this bugger in odd-eyes ritual.dec.
>>48179518
The one thats limited and shit? greeaaat...
>>48179518
The thing is I want it back from the grave.
>>48179546
Did you really call the original prep shit? Fucking really?
>>48179561
It's NOTHING compared to pre-prep.
>>48179557
tfw no generic nekroz cycle
>>48179511
I'm more upset that it isn't level 6 for cyber angel memes.
>>48179573
It's still a easy +1 and a tutor, if it was at 3 you'd run both.
>>48179646
It still isn't worth using rituals just because that card exists. If preprep was instead "add 1 ritual monster and a ritual spell who's name is in that monsters text" it'd be so much better. Blue-eyes chaos max would be worth using if that were the case.
>>48179686
MAX still sees use in the OCG even without that nonsense.
How are Deskbots these days?
>>48179842

What new Ancient Gears they are my favourites, fuck yes.
I remember when they came out and one of my neighbours got a ancient gear solider i found them so stylish that i traded him like three cards for one solider.
>>48179842
There were some decent deskbot lists posted last thread, look em up.
so when are they gonna bring back Gate Guardian or Flame Swordsman?
>>48180046
Flame Swordsman got a card pretty recently. It was shit, but it was still a card.
Gate Guardian was abhorrent and inefficient, even for its time period. It would need to be completely reworked from scratch to bother with.
