Number 18: Heraldry Patriarch is exactly what it's named after, a Patriarch. More specifically a European Catholic King and it's referenced throughout its design. The shape is supposed to reference a "Crown and Cloak". The Big Ice Chunk is surrounded by smaller ice chunks to reference how a king rules over people. The color Blue is a European trope that signifies that someone is born into nobility, Blue Blooded Nobles. The color Red is symbolic in Catholicism, red means "god's chosen/ most faithful". It's why emperors like Charlemagne wore red, why a lot of Catholic and Christian countries have red in their flags, and why a literal rank in Catholicism is called "Cardinals". Finally, even its number 18 has ties to Catholicism. The reason a lot of countries see 18 years as adulthood is because 18 years old is the religious age of adulthood in Catholicism.
Its cards also have almost no inherent special summoning, so that handful of reborns is all they get. They didn't even get Amphisbaena until after Soul Charge was printed.
The thing that bothers me the most about augmented heraldry is that it also stops YOUR spells/traps from targeting your psychics, which means you cannot rank them up using rum cards while this card is in the field zone
5:19 I just realized this card kinda works to force his sons cards to become suitable for his deck, all of them focus on rank 5-9 gimmick puppets rank 8, Dyson sphere rank 9 and Chronomaly ranks 5 and 6
Number 18: Heraldry Patriarch actually saw a good amount of competitive play and success in Duel Links during the Blue Eyes and Harpie Lady metas respectively
I loved the concept and designs of these cards and im so sad they have been neglected so much. I wish they came out in the synchro era or something maybe they would have survived more there then the xyz era where their boss monsters were only useful against other xyz monsters.
Heh, a *funny* idea is to use 69 in Galaxy-Eyes. Ventrix: "I negate Neo Galaxy-Eyes' Effect, and now I will use Heraldry Crest to summon Galaxy-Eyes Full Armor Photon Dragon!" Of course, you cannot Special a second while you still have the first outside of Unicorn.
This was a nice trip down memory lane; a Reptile-loaded version of this deck was my go-to for years before Pendulums dropped, and more recently Time Thief Heraldics (or "Capture the Flag" as I tend to refer to the deck) has just been _fun._
I was bored all morning, so I made some Heraldic support. Name: "Heraldic Beast Wolf" Attribute: Earth Type: Beast/Effect Level: 4 ATK/DEF: 1600/800 Effect: If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 "Heraldic Beast" monster from your hand, except "Heraldic Beast Wolf". A "Number" Xyz Monster that was Summoned using this card on the field as material gains this effect. You can only use each of the preceding effects of "Heraldic Beast Wolf" once per turn. Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can target 1 monster your opponent controls; return it to the hand. Name: "Heraldic Beast Bear" Attribute: Earth Type: Beast/Effect Level: 4 ATK/DEF: 1800/900 Effect: If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can send 1 "Heraldic Beast" monster from your Deck to the GY, except "Heraldic Beast Bear". A "Number" Xyz Monster that was Summoned using this card on the field as material gains this effect. You can only use each of the preceding effects of "Heraldic Beast Bear" once per turn. Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can target 1 Spell/Trap your opponent controls; send it to the GY.
Luckily the deck can go into xyz armor cards or utopia dragonar and because of eagle they can use it twice. It's a lot more complex and weird than it seems
@@IsaiahBuchanan175 It was a long time ago and I don't have the list, the main idea was to summon Heraldry Crest, then Numeron Dragon, and Heraldry Crest copy Numeron Dragon effect to get 2 5000+ ATK Monsters.
@IsaiahBuchanan175 You can also go into utopia double, summon dragonar then use the effect to summon dragon. Alternatively summon hope harbinger, then reattach 2 mats with eagle and during your opponent's turn summon photon lord and attach photon thrasher from deck to end with a spell+monster negate (lvl 4 which summons from hand, best garnet)
I feel bad for this deck honestly, it could've been so much more, who wouldn't want to summon Genome Heratige and Stomp out your opponent with a ... faceless yet magistic looking dear thing. If it was any better it would've made for a deck piloted by V-Tubers who like animals and look like the Dryad from Summoners War....
Man, ever since I discovered Heraldry Crest of Horror, I’ve always wished that this deck would get new support! Plus I personally love the theming. Hopefully this deck gets legacy support soon.
Yeah, Amphisbaenas are weird. I've only seen them crop up in media every so often, and they sometimes don't even call them that (like in Amphibia with Lysil and Angwin).
Patriarch is basically a Sapphire Psychic Golem Head. The One which has red is the head, And the large ring may represent a king robe. Think crystal king golem but with telekinetic holding it togeyjer
Honestly Heraldic Beasts being able to take on the name of any opposing monster and making them level 4 could be their new playstyle. Basically, like the XYZ version of Relinquished/Change of Heart. Just spit balling ideas.
Kurikara Divincarnate lore pls, that connects to the other yu gi oh lores. I didn't see a single video that connected the lore of kurikara to the yu gi oh world.
Looking through the main deck monsters, the effects arent even all that bad. The only issue is that every monster only has one of them. That and a lack of free specials. Just condensing the effects a bit would make them much more playable with new support tho
Heraldic beasts are Windex if it was relabeled with a Sprayway logo Btw Nova, Gimmick Puppets got some new support you should check out. Gimmick Puppets have FTK potential now
this deck boss were really nerfed when they printed in the card game. In the anime, number 9 could copy any monster, xyz or not and number 69 was a skill drain.
I am inexplicably rather fond of Heraldics(I find Genom-Heritage an especially fun design), but yeah, it has literally never been good ever. Gimmick Puppet has gotten MULTIPLE waves of 5+ card support in the time it has taken for this deck to get a single, restrictive Spell. You left out a few things, like the Angel of Mischief FTKs with Heraldry Crest and the fact that Patriarch has no OPT effects at all, letting it theoretically set up your GY better than even Snake Rain…if the deck had a Main Deck worth the effort.
Nova, if you don't mind me asking, is this the Archetype that scored the lowest in the N.O.V.A. scale? Also are you gonna give the N.O.V.A. scale ratings to Archetypes you discussed in the past?
cxyz versions of his other two would be nice with better effects that copy any monster maybe update his main deck and crest as well spell cards are pretty good already advanced heraldry art is pretty good card for them

11:43 Patriarch is supposedly a "crown". Ice chunk with red swirly being the crown jewel and the ring around it being the rest of the crown.
"Check your daddy issues at the door" 💀💀
I can't believe this archetype is allowed to run three reborns on top of three soul charges before Soul Charge was released
what
no way
btw, hello friend

i had to find this out the hard way
@@IsaiahBuchanan175 same brother, same 🫂
Eh, they needed an archetypal rank up magic of their own anyways - this just gives them another excuse
Did not even realize this. Ig we splash this into some of the worst/counterintuitive archetypal field spells list
I mean... in defense of C69, it wasn't summoned by Tron, it was summoned by Dark Mist.

I hope heraldic beast will get support like how meklord gets one so they're much more versatile
Meklord?
@@AristasTheMonsterHunter Yeah they're new boss monster let's them scoop up on a larger pool of monsters compare to just synchro
Maybe C8 and C18?

No Joke, I actually looked up if you had made the video on this archetype yet, last week. And Now you have! Awesome!
Ah yes the xyz equivalent of meklord
You mean the xyz equivalent of arcana force
@@jeremiahevans6346
No, the OP has a point on the Xyz countering archetype being like the Synchro countering archetype.
@@Bezaliel13 oh I see so , is their a anti fusion deck in gx?

Not that I remember.

Extremely specific description but I can see it
Number 18 was a life saver during the Harpie meta in Duel Links
Let's face it. You put Advanced Heraldry Art into ANYTHING playable and it would be broken.
Man, ever since I discovered Heraldry Crest of Horror, I’ve always wished that this deck would get new support! Plus I personally love the theming. Hopefully this deck gets legacy support soon.
You get my like for "Chaos Nice!"

Which spell?
@@justinterry8894 all of them
@@justinterry8894 my brother read the card and see
Kurikara Divincarnate lore pls, that connects to the other yu gi oh lores. I didn't see a single video that connected the lore of kurikara to the yu gi oh world.
Would you ever do a thing on Archfiends? Like the chess piece Archfiends? They're neat.

Maybe there are supports for it. Last time, the archlight family won at least 1 card

Nice!❤
Chaos nice 😂😂😂😂
Heraldic beasts are Windex if it was relabeled with a Sprayway logo
Btw Nova, Gimmick Puppets got some new support you should check out. Gimmick Puppets have FTK potential now
Chaos, nice…
Died on the spot
😊 Heraldic Beast. My favorite XYZ Deck
Are heraldic beasts the first sub 10 on the NOVA scale?
I’ve used number 18 in early duel links against the bots 😅
I think they really should have more legacy support

1:45 what it says there?
Fun fact: Arise Heart is a Machine
Funner fact: It's also banned.
Good attempt at the Latin haha

It's tied with two others! As for past one, I think it would be fun to do at some point, but no current plans.
@@GoldenNovaYugioh I see. I missed some of your videos so mind me asking what are the other two who tied with these guys?
