another banger my valmocian

[@motutaressanressan8902]

Is that mbt pasy

[@getsuga10shou47]

bang my another valmonica

[@kingblue2646]

banger? but i hardly know valmocian

[@TheDocperian]

At the very least Vaalmonica shows that Konami still has creative ways to use Pendulums in ways that feel unique to Yugioh

[@exal1504]

unfortunately due to early pushes and design choices, it really feels like new pendulum archetypes are doomed to be pure gimmick, as making anything too generic gets added to the "pendulum soup" of just jamming every good pend that plusses. I think there's a lot of neat ways to use the scale zones or the dual effects, but unfortunately that means they cant also be good

[@MrGshinobi]

Yeah, they just forgot to make them playable and/or good :)

[@thewave-qz9lt]

dark hole dragon was made for mementos,they all destroy themselves without targeting so you can easily summon him as an extender.

[@VeyaAE]

"another banger my valmocian", as per MBT's command

[@NexusSpacey]

Another deck that might be able to play Vaalmonicas and be able to use the life gain boss during the opponents turn is Live Twin, which very often gain life points during the opponents turn with their continuous spell, giving them a board nuke and a monster steal during the opponents turn when they get to 3 or more summons and the valmonicas can help you dig for said spell. Problem being that you have 0 level 4 monsters to benefit from.

[@tylercoburn5336]

That’s a cool consideration, I imagine the extra deck fiend lock from the evil twins could be a bit of anti-synergy, but it feels worth pursuing

[@Team-Eclipse6024]

Lets hope the dead weight strategies in this set, get more support than the wild survivors archetypes did!

[@sistercarmilla5729]

We'll have to wait until like May for that still, 1 new card in Phantom Nightmare and it's for Memento.

[@carsongray3652]

they gotta turn these deck builder sets into draft sets man

[@joplin4434]

not really possible because of the nature of archetypes. MTG's premier sets are designed for draft but everyone has 10 different "archetypes" one for each color pairing, and since they are not like yugioh's the same card can fit into multiples of them, with only the signpost uncommons being really parasitic about their mechanics

[@carsongray3652]

@@joplin4434 Me, looking around frantically for why I can't splash Vaalmonica into Memento: Of course! Magic the Gathering's shitty draft practices!

[@joplin4434]

???? are you ok? their drafts tend to be excelent, yugioh is the one you can't draft@@carsongray3652

"Another banger, my valmoncain"

[@Phant0mzx]

Wait..... Did he just say enjoy Master Saga?! Kuribandits confirmed???

[@TheKuribandits]

I forgot that MBT isn’t on Master Saga anymore

[@princeofpoyo]

[@whyisthereasockoverthere6092]

another banger my liege.... keep up the bangers.....

[@1inimilian567]

Centur-ion is a deck I have been playing for a while. I really like and and don’t want to see in crippled like day five. I know it is good but, I feel a lot of the reason it is so overwhelming when playing against is because of jank and not because of the cards.

[@SmashingPapaya]

Calamity Turbo, as the deck is also known as.

[@842zaq1]

Another banger my vaalmonican

[@frig7014]

it sucks that the LP gain part of the valmonica effects all suck, if they were at least deterministic like the damage effects were they would have a solid home in some janky aromage brew post support (which can also search the field spell because you can jasmin for cattycorn from the deck).

[@MooGoesCow21]

Another banger from Vaalmonica

[@publickip]

i didn't know this set or video came out, my fault

[@Zambles]

I still hate how generic cneturion's summons are. I wish tehy just had more in house stuff to summon and were restricted to that

[@vinnythewebsurfer]

That entire meme to intro… a masta piece.

[@kyleawsum7]

pricemaster referenced, 1... hundred... MILLION likes dispensed

[@TheKuribandits]

Calebdotexe did this to me, him and Kingscarlet wouldn’t stop making price master jokes at Indy

Another banger my vaslonican

[@MiyaoMeow588]

I think Mementos are neat :)

[@GleamingGarmore]

I wanted Centur-ION to be fun to play bc they’re based on mecha anime I like… too bad its another king calamity deck instead

[@Badbufon]

it's a good synchro 12 engine, i think it will always had potential to come back when new targets get released, like what happens with shaddolls and fusion decks

[@Yunglex313]

What Mecha anime is it referencing?

[@TheRedScizor]

[@tarantula5389]

This is me every time since my lancer cookies are done!!?.

[@k-dawgHI]

I mean I wouldn’t be too surprised if centurion sees more play here because we don’t have maxx-c

[@TheKuribandits]

See but that doesn’t feel like it explains it because centurion has an extremely low special summon count, often times below even nib range and an exceptional ability to play on the opponent’s turn and through disruption. It feels like the perfect deck to take into a Maxx C format.

[@k-dawgHI]

@@TheKuribandits that’s true… damn I genuinely don’t know what the deal is with calamity and always being so close yet so… weirdly mid.

[@spicymemes7458]

More like Valiant Passers

[@IRoIN100]

HA

[@RaggerBagger]

Biggest banger!

[@seanh2785]

Ty for the review!

[@TheLordTash]

Another banger

[@christianacosta4846]

Man that talk bout valmonicas is just sad they really made this archetype to fail. Memento at least has a gameplan to try and go 2nd but valmonica is make a link 1 and pray. If it becomes good it’ll be nuked cause it’s an entirely generic good link 1 or it’ll say bad with a gimmick that allows them to play maybe half the time by being a bad mill deck. Can Konami make an archetype that’s worse it’d be so funny

[@SmashingPapaya]

heheh, get it 'Pray'? cause... ya know, Angels and Devils...

[@readyfusion]

Didn’t you say…. You wouldn’t do another
