● YGOPro is an automated simulator.

Both are free to play.
The Official /dng/ ruling test can be found here:
https://testmoz.com/466984
BEFORE asking (spoonfed), try the following:
● Read the cards.
● Lurk and read the archives.
● Try and keep your deck as close to 40 cards as possible. This increases your chances of drawing the cards you need.
● Google your Deck before you post it here. If your deck is/was competitive it will probably have topped an event.
● Most Yu-Gi-Oh Games have an option between Singles (Self explanatory, a single Game) and Matches (Best of 3). It is recommended that you play Matches, as Singles does not teach you how to use your Side Deck.
● Remember to playtest and try suggestions before you trash them, even if someone recommends a weird tech choice. You don't know everything.
First for dicking Pilica.

>>137131337

This entire archetype is just a poor rip of Maiden with Eyes of Blue. If you can play around her, you can easily play around this entire archetype.
Choco seems decent for draw power and Lemon can search Exodia but otherwise this archetype is trash like NBEUD and the soon to be unveiled Houkais
>Flip monsters are shit

So when is the game breaking gemini archetype?
>>137131676
You drop a magician and get a new card for an instant return.
And if you drop Magician's Rod or Magician's Robe you can capitalize on their effects on the opponent's turn, using Chocolate if they try to remove her. And if not, they still can't attack her normally due to her effect.
So now you can dig through the deck faster than before. Dump usable cards to the graveyard easier, without losing out on cards. While forcing the opponent to waste resources, without even gaining anything since you'll just pay away your Chocolate for your own reward when they try to do something anyway.

Good luck on getting that to work senpai.
Why do you think Blue-eyes stopped running Maiden? Leaving weak cards on the board and waiting for your opponent to do something so you can counter it never works unless you're playing stunshit.dek
>>137132796
Because Unions, Spirits, Toons, and Geminis were all mistakes.
>>137133029
It's interesting that pendulum solves the main issue for unions, spirits, and geminis. Just waiting for an archetype to abuse it.
>>137132484
>Priestess is useless because Melody and GUB exist

I love how that one support card became the best card because it's a stratos and summons from the main deck.
Shame he's getting hit soon because he sleeps with Veiler too much.
>>137133165
Pendulum Warrior FIRE Gemini archetype fucking when?
>>137132917
>and waiting for your opponent to do something
But you wouldn't do any of that.
You would discard spellcasters for more cards. And then trade Chocolate for stronger spellcasters using effects.
The attack thing is just an extra that likely isn't too relevant.
>>137133029
Add Wyrms to that list and you are right.
DUDE HOLD UP A FUCK
The Magiciaa Girls have one for each attribute and their effects deal with Spellcasters

>pendulum solves the main issue for unions, spirits, and geminis.
>Unions
Eh, I'm unsure. Might be cool but a Synchro focused Pendulum archetype would just be outright better.

Spirits can't be special summoned, so no it wouldn't.

You could still only normal one of them per turn without ultimate offering tier support, so that's shit too.

Sage does 2 of those. Maiden does 2 Priest does 1 and recycles.
Guard and Priestess are useless.
The stones make for some good draw power/search power when combined with consonace or 95's milling

>>137138206
Almost every deck is a "one trick pony" deck, some are just more consistent than others
>>137138206
You know. With Secret Village that is pretty legit.
The moment the opponent ever summons a Spellcaster, you summon a DM and banish their Spellcaster. Keeping them from using spells while banishing their cards.
>>137137062
You are just as retarded as him.
>>137110730
But that hand wouldn't have worked against any deck aside from mermails. Also, that fact that so many OCG decks still main deck hand traps as "a way for synchro and xyz plays" only tells you how you are from being a serious deck builder. Patrick Hoban has long recognized that some of the best cards are Upstart and BF, who are not the most degenerate or useful cards in the meta, let alone of all times.
Ok, serious question:
Has anyone here actually ordered Hoban's new book? I'm considering buying it to attempt to scan it.

Why did they make it a Thunder type?
Why not warrior type so it's searchable with RoTA instead of being a sacky topdeck card
Is the blue-eyes build with the level eaters and tripple formula synchron still a thing? it was able to summon crystal wing iirc
>>137143351
>Being searchable by a single limited card makes it not sacky
What? I mean it'd be SLIGHTLY less sacky but that isn't consistent at all.

>>137144091
>Want to use Stardust Warrior
>It's only playable in tuningjank.dek
Konami needs to print more good generic Synchros. Omega is a good start, but they need to really bridge the gap between Synchro and XYZ. Also generic contact fusions when?
Side note: what do you expect Starve Venom's Fusion mats to be? Two DARK monsters? It'll have to be somewhat generic.
what makes him so wise?
>>137144960
Stop shitposting, autismo.

kek.
Stop complaining and git gud. The game has always had annoying control cards
>>137144851

>>137144968
Why was this not a Fusion in the definitive Fusion era of the yugioh anime, where this monster is literally the combination of two other monsters?
>>137145184
Too broken ;^)
>>137144960
Something like 2 monsters of the same type.
Predator Plants are unknown at this time so if they're meant to be a fusion deck, they must have some kind of gimmick
>>137144851
I made Buster Blader playable. You can blame everything on me, I don't mind. ;)
>>137145184
It was a fusion in the anime, was even summoned with Super Poly because Darkness had special summoned Yubel from Judai's deck. Don't know what they were thinking when they printed it
Interestingly enough, the first Korean print of the card actually did misprint it with the fusion border
>>137144960
1 "predator plant" monster + 1 dark monster.
Mark my fucking words.
>>137145184
>Make it the fusion of two monsters
>the two monsters don't work with each other in any way
How did Judai win duels again or how did his deck go under 60 cards?
Guy was running generic plot cards of the week, E-Heroes, Neo Spacians, support for both and Yubel all the same deck and never bricked
>>137145430
They'll be garbage at Fusion. They'll be amazing as a Rank 3 engine, though ;)
>>137145430
That sounds WAY too splashable. It'll definitely have to require something more specific than that or people will throw Dragon's Mirror into almost everything.
>>137144995
I'm not even a nostalgiafag you fucking spastic, why are you defending floodgates?
>>137145656
Do. You. Even. Believe. In. The. Heart. Of. The. Cards. Bro?
>>137145586
I don't think it'll require a Predator Plant, as Yuya is set to acquire all 4 dragons. If that's the case, he won't be able to summon it.
I mean they could make the anime and ingame conditions different of course, but I don't see it being that drastic. I could be wrong though I suppose.

More like 1 dark monster/whatever + 1 level 5 or higher monster.
You can bet that it will have "1 level 5 or higher monster" as one of its materials.
Anime Pendulum Dragon's double damage effect is only applied on level 5 or higher monsters.
Anime Xyz Dragon's effect only works on level 5 or higher monsters.
Synchro Dragon only negates level 5 or higher monsters / effects that target level 5 or higher monsters.
A level 5 or higher monster is a pretty safe bet for Fusion Dragon's material I'd say. It's generic enough to be splashable enough, and it's also in line with the other dragons.
>>137146068
Vortex is good desu.
>>137146068
It has to support Odd-Eyes in some indirect form to follow the theme of the other two dragons. Dank Rebellion and Clear Wing weren't total shit so probably this won't either.
>>137146673
>banishing
>in this meta
>>137146775
Do you even predator plants?
What levels are Fly Hell and Moray
>>137146668
XYZ is a thing. And 1-2 Dragon's Mirror won't brick you unless your deck is shit.
>>137146775
>More like 1 dark monster/whatever + 1 level 5 or higher monster
This would be cool, actually. I'd use it in a heartbeat. But I don't think the two plants that eggplant yuya used were that high level. It might just have an effect involving 5 or higher monsters.
>>137147027
Not every deck needs it's gy.
>>137144629
Sorry, i'm erika- i use the shitter stun deck.
>>137147234
r u aa girl??
>>137146775
Starve Venom's mat sound more like 2 monsters with the exact same same stats i.e. Level, Attribute and type.
This way, it works perfectly in almost any deck like Dark Rebellion, Clear Wing and Odd-eyes
>>137147174
And we use XYZ monsters because they don't need anything special to summon them and because they have useful effects
>>137147174
Stop shitposting, autismo.
>>137147349
no i tried to make a meme deck around Umineko's Erika Furudo who likes to lock people in rooms. (hence the lockdown deck)
>>137147503
I don't think you're grasping that Dragon's Mirror would make Starve Venom great for R8 decks if it has loose materials.
>>137147027
>What levels are Fly Hell and Moray
We don't know. But I am betting one of them is level 5 or higher.
>>137147503
Do not reply to him, newshit.
>>137147625
What R8 decks are there which would actually run this thing?
D/D/Ds don't need a vanilla clogging up their tight extra deck.
Blue-eyes doesn't even run Twin Burst or Ultimate Dragon
Monarchs don't need a fusion card bricking them even more
Kozmos don't like the extra deck unless it's for Castel or Infinity.
>>137147951
Do not reply to him, newshit.
>>137148051
Do not talk to him like that, newfag
>>137147951
>D/D/D
I don't know shit about the deck so I can't speculate here.
>Blue-Eyes
Would almost definitely run it. Twin Burst's summoning conditions are completely different, the two are not comparable.
>Monarchs
Not an R8 deck
>Kozmo
Would love the free 2800 beater so their helmet could get even tighter.
I could also see it run in Dark World, and possibly Noids (though they'd want to fuse in another method besides Mirror).
A lot of other decks might value the beat stick if they don't use their GY. Shit some Synchro decks might even like it.
All this is just a hypothetical "if it's a vanilla" mind you. It will almost definitely have a not shit effect.

It really does depend on fusion summoning conditions (contact v spell) or requirements being generic enough to splash if we are to consider it as rank 8 fodder, hope it's effect is good enough to be run standalone too
>>137150010
It's a spell, yuri used poly to summon him.

Top kuk. You're undoubtedly the most cancerous individual on the board thoug tripwhine-kun, kindly mill yourself my man
>>137150251
Oh yeah, then it may not be worth splashing, still depends on if it's "2 darks" so we can use dragons mirror or not
>>137150516
>>137150341
For all we know it could use 2 names, and the predator plants can all be treated as any name for fusion summons.
>>137150251
>>137150341
Beast-Eyes needs a poly to summon it in the anime, while the real card can be summoned through poly or contact fusion. There is a chance that Starve Venom might not need poly either
>>137150251
Yuya used Trump Witch to summon Beast-Eyes but it's also a contact fusion. Twin Burst can be summoned with a spell or contact fusion. I'm fairly certain that giving the option between traditional and contact fusion is something Konami wants to push as the new evolution of fusion monsters (at least for dragons) much in the same way that Perfect Herald started the idea of ritual spells doing something besides just summoning the monster

Just take a look at the other generals.

How does this card interact with cards that affect Levels and Ranks?
Is this an Infernoid Secret Tech?
>>137154052
It's treated as a level 12 monster, can't you read

How do we make Dark Scorpions good?
I go to UTSG and met Vorcia IRL. He got kicked out of a school event recently for calling people Mexican retards, referring to a BLM protest as Planet of the Apes, and calling Muslims degenerate sandniggers.
tbf (taking my trip off for this but I am actually mariomon), /fgog/ is utter dogshit a very large portion of the time and has literally 0 relevant trips
>>137154052
it's still a fine card in infernoids for slowing your opponents down like crazy, just clog the field

>>137154409
But that's what makes the game fun.
>>137154409
You read the cards before you play the game, then when you're playing you know what they all do so you don't have to stop.

>>137154778
I havent played this game since 2010ish. There is so much that is alien. Pendulum looks kick ass.
>>137154961
Pendulum certainly looks cool, until you realize the mechanic is inherently flawed and the only way a pendulum deck be viable is with bullshit plusses out the ass.
>>137154961
Pendulums are either inherently busted as shit or inherently garbage. There is no middle-ground, they aren't even splashable like Synchro or XYZ.
Konami really fucked up in designing them. Pendulums were a mistake.
>>137155024
>>137155416
Why didn't Konami just keep making rank 4 focused control decks?
>>137155490
Good argument.
>>137155490
That's exactly what they did, though
>>137155024
>>137155416
Do you guys have any advice for someone just jumping back in Yugioh?
>>137155490
Konami should have just made more good Tuners and generic Contact Fusions.
What deck makes best use of Card of Demise?
These decks are all fun for me, but I'm not sure which are more powerful.
I know the artifacts suck against blue-eyes. I have had a lot of success in testing these, but I haven't played against Kozmo or Burning Abyss.
>>137155632
no, they made rank 4 focused combo decks
>>137155752
Ignore the Extra Deck and only play Kozmo.
>>137155752
Pick up Vanguard instead. Konami has fucked up incredibly badly.
>>137155794
>generic contact fusions
What's the point, that'd just be purple colored xyz
there's nothing wrong with fusions not being splashable, not everything needs to be goodstuff
>>137155894

Im not helping you until you get rid of those shitty upstarts and chicken shits
>>137155752
Download YGOpro and practice against the AI. Look up recent topping decks and play those. Learn what makes cards good and bad now. Once you've got a handle on that, make your own deck and move on to real players.
>>137155894
>Play a dead game
>>137155985
They wouldn't be purple colored XYZ at all, they'd compliment them.
>Attribute + Attribute
>Type + Type
>Attribute + Type
How could you not want this?
>Vanguard
I don't think so, Tim
>>137156210
Because that sounds WAY too generic and easy to summon. You'd pretty much be forced to give them extremely mediocre effects to compensate.
http://roadoftheking.com/spelltrap-destruction-in-ocg-2016-04
Pretty good analysis about S/T Destruction. This site in general usually has something good
>>137156361
>WAY too generic and easy to summon.
You mean exactly like XYZ? These wouldn't be any easier than two of the same level, I don't see a problem here.
>>137156671
two same attribute or same type is a lot easier than same level.
you also wouldn't be able to actually have different tiers of power depending on the required material monsters.
>>137156210
>They wouldn't be purple colored XYZ
But they would. Xyz have already filled the niche of being generic extra deck toolbox monsters.
>>137156847
>R4 is harder than two monsters of the same attribute
>Implying XYZ ranks are at all balanced based on how many stars they have
What? What game are you playing?
>>137156897
I really don't see the problem with having generic extra toolbox that isn't XYZ. It's just more stuff every deck can use, it would only be a good thing.
>>137156897
This.
Xyz = generic lower-power toolbox or higher-rank big flashy boss monsters
Synchro = slightly more difficult and specific power plays
Fusion = spammable archetype bosses
>>137157276
>Implying XYZ ranks are at all balanced based on how many stars they have
They actually are these days. Rank 4 can hardly be called a win condition anymore.
>>137157276
>It's just more stuff every deck can use, it would only be a good thing.
Because if you make too much stuff every deck can use, eventually every deck will use the same thing.
Do you want another Ptolemaeus format?
>>137157382
>Xyz = generic lower-power toolbox or higher-rank big flashy boss monsters
Blatantly untrue. R4 and arguably R3 break that mold completely. A lot of ranks (1, 2, 6, 9, 11, and 12) are also complete fucking garbage.
>Synchro = slightly more difficult and specific power plays
Agreed.
>Fusion = spammable archetype bosses
Literally only Shaddolls have this.
>>137157540
I never said I wanted Ptolemaeus tier cards, just more options.
And even if it isn't a wincon, R4s toolbox is still fucking crazy thanks to shit like Castel, Lightning, Abyss Dweller, etc... It makes all the other ranks look like shit.
>>137157276
if you want something this generic for fusions you need to
1. not make the fusions level 4 or lower ever
2. they all need to be from monsters of the same type and attribute and banish the materials for BALANCE
more importantly theres the new resource mechanic coming from the movie
>>137157941
>more importantly theres the new resource mechanic coming from the movie
What?

He's just pulling shit out of his ass
>>137157941
>not make the fusions level 4 or lower ever

Both perfectly reasonable.
>more importantly theres the new resource mechanic coming from the movie
Source: your ass
>>137157860
castel, lightning and dweller are pretty much all rank 4 even has left dude
>>137158172
To be fair that's all they need to BTFO the competition. Lightning and Castel should never have been printed.
>>137158437

>>137157565
>Rank 6 is bad
>M7
>Norito
>Utopia the Beyond
>Beato
>Philips CDI
It's not as generic as Rank 4 or Rank 3 but it's got good monsters, not "complete fucking garbage".
>>137159036
>Has to be a pure R4 deck
Shut the fuck up you autistic fag
>>137159223
>>137159396
There's exactly one deck in Japan that even uses R4 at all.
Dracopals are the only deck here that uses R4s too, and even then more as a supplement than as their primary power plays.
>>137159342
CDI is basically a rank 5, who the fuck plays it with its listed materials?
>>137159342
Just having some decent monsters doesn't make the rank good if nothing can use them. If ranks were proportionately powered to level, it would make sense that harder to use levels would have incredibly strong XYZs. But that isn't the case at all.
And Infinity really doesn't count as an R6 in the same sense that Lightning doesn't count as an R5. They aren't summoned using monsters of those levels.
>>137159342
>M7
shit
>Norito
not generic
>Beyond
shit
>Beatrice
that's a rank 3
>Infinity
that's a rank 5

nice bait kurosaki shun, you won't catch me
>>137159342

CDI is Rank 5 mayne.
>b-but the card says
Show me those LV6 LIGHT Machine type monsters, go ahead, I'm waiting.
Nah, fuck that, I'll do it for you:
There's exactly 8 of them, of which only 3 are maindeck monsters, and 1 of them is a nomi.
>>137159778
>beyond is shit

Get out.
>>137160238
>>beatrice is a rank 3
>actually playing her as a rank 6 and not overlaying with Dante
>>137160403
In a rank 6 deck she is generic, in rank 3 she requires dante AND a BA discard.
Not generic = shit
>>137160548
>not using astral force on minerva in R4
>>137160548
who the fuck would summon beatrice as a rank 6
>>137160745
Anybody playing R6.dek, since it's literally a better lavalval chain.
>>137160548
>a rank 6 deck
You mean Hieratics?
>>137143517
Can somebody link me this deck profile? I do not remember any BEWD deck running fucking Level Eater

Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with this faggot?
Almost every fucking thread does this shit
>>137164714
I know right? God forbid people actually talk about the game. You and I both know this place is for one thing, shitposting.
Nordics were never really a thing, were they? For some reason until a little while ago I'd thought Nordics had actually been relevant, but then I tried actually playing the deck and holy shit are they awful.
>>137167730
The Konami blog had an article trying to convince people that they were better than Plant Synchro, but that's the extent of the relevancy
