I know Alex can have some insane protagonist powers at times, but even then, expecting to mill any Lightsworn monsters when they're not even included in the main deck is a big ask.
I thought the same thing when I saw his list lol
Watching this, it looked like Alex was playing a deck from 2015 and Joseph playing one from 2021. It really highlights the changes in deckbuilding theory and understanding across that era
That’s something Joseph emphasizes and I’d really think a video talking about that would be cool in terms of deck building innovation. Heck talking about the evolution of the retro formats since covid and history of yugioh would be neat.
I know after a while reaper format became unplayable as last will cyberstein is in that format.
I'd love for them to make a video on the shift and the philosophy of why and when it changed in more depth outside of "hand traps help stop the stars of the meta"
@@U1TR4F0RCEThe funny part about Will Stein Trunade is that all 3 are at 3 in Goat but Stein OTK is just not good enough without Cyber Twin Dragon and Cyber End Dragon.
Cimo's deck was honestly not _that_ bad during that format, but he drew kind of unlucky for once 😅take game 1 for example, yeah Brilliant Fusion was nice and all, but he didn't open either one of his plant/zombie/dino starters, and the zombie engine specifically is something that he didn't see at all in any of the 3 games.
Edit: After thinking about it, I actually think I had a different deck in mind when I said "not that bad". There was some 60 card Dino/Shaddoll pile which was decent.
yeah but the miss plays on Alex's side kinda made the bo3 seem like a wash
Brain Control continuing to be Bottomless is my favorite part of the series
Bottomless Brain Hole is real
27:32 Pend monsters are still sent to the Extra Deck even if Conductor uses his effect since the effect still tries to send the monster to the GY. The only time Pends aren't sent to the Extra Deck from the field is when there's an effect that would send them somewhere else that isn't the graveyard.
or, you know, under d. fissure
@@YeahTheDuckweedwhich sends them somewhere that isn't the graveyard
@@ThatOneWeirdFlex well, yeah, obviously. But the way d. fissure works is that *only* monsters that *would* be sent to the graveyard are banished, so its interaction with pendulums exactly is *kinda* interesting
don't think you can revive Ultimate Conductor if it's been cheated out with pill
This is correct
Can you revive it if it was milled? He had 2. 1 was milled off Grass.
@@sr71silver no the card states must first be special summoned by its effect
yeah lol as a dino player I was shaking my head at this one so much cheating and misplays
also it's like he forgot qoatlus could be summoned/had an effect etc.
@@scythermantis bro if the card or effect wasnt super meta popular, used in every turn of a duel, in every match, Cimo is not going to remember the effect. Just like how he forgot Black Rose second effect from that one episode
Overtex can actually destory itself to negate a spell or Trap. Cimoo really shouldn't have ignore'd that effect. As it's very relevant against Zefra.
Doesn't matter but i don't think Alex was allowed to reborn Tyranno TWICE since it wasnt propertly summoned by his own effect.
Not that it matters, but you absolutely cannot special summon Zefraath the way Joseph did in game 2. If it was that easy, people might actually do it sometimes.
In order to summon Zefraath, he must be in your face-up Extra Deck, and you have to tribute every monster you control including 3 Zefra monsters, not just 3 Zefra monsters.
And bc it is from the extra deck it has to go to the extra monster zone or a zone a link monster points yo
@@loganlazarus5644 just the extra monster zone, functionally. It's impossible to have a link monster on field when Zefraath is summoned
@@bencrandall-malcolm8303 opponent's link monster
MBT probably would have been able to summon it legally no matter what so it didn't matter.
Zefraath PE, place Zefraath in ED face-up
PS so that you have 3 Zefra monsters
Tribute everything for Zefraath
Use Zefraath's effect to PS again
Swing for game
That easy.
yes but you must admit. it was cool as hell
This one feels like a coughing baby vs Joseph’s hydrogen bomb but it was still a great match.
37:40 can’t summon back UCT because it wasn’t properly summoned. Ik it doesn’t matter because the match is already over but it might be useful to know in the future
Me seeing Dim Barrier and Evenly in both side decks and realizing nothing has changed since that time period.
Just a reminder; Conductor is not properly summoned off pill so the oviraptor ef and monster reborn were missplays.
Alex got Ash in hand sees a Gamma and is like: "That's fine"
Unfortunately there was nothing he could do because Gamma is not a once per turn effect, so Gamma would negate the other Predaplant.
Zefra war can be activated from hand if u have 2 zefra scales. MBT didnt need to set it game 2.
This is like some deck from mid 2010s compared to a deck you would see this year
I gotta say, it's amusing how Cimo's protag powers always activate... unless he's playing a 60 card deck. Then he can't see Grass on time to save his life. Edit to add, for game three, you can activate Left Arm with it being the third card in hand, so he could have dropped Lonefire or Oviraptor before the Grass.
30:59
Miss play on summoning Zefraath.
He must be special summon from the extra deck while its face up in order to summon him.
I mean in order to ss zefraath you need to tribute all your monsters on the field including 3 zefras not only 3 zefra
It also needs to be in the extra deck, but who needs to read cards
Game 1 Opening Brilliant + Gold Sarc, not making Curious
Game 3 Minerva Snow and clown on field, didn’t go for Curious
Curious on the banlist: “Am I a joke to you?!” 😂
Agree with G1, but Snow and Clown are both spellcasters
01:38 Deck List / Breakdown
15:13 Duels
1:36 MBT's Deck: Zefra 9:17 Cimooooo's Deck: 60-Card Dino Zombie ft Brilliant Fusion & Predaplant Engine
14:30 Game 1
23:43 Game 2 24:24 Cimoooo forgot he can Ash Blossom the Gamma?
30:58 MBT ACTUALLY SUMMONED ZEFRAATH AS IT WAS INTEDED?!
31:31 Game 3 38:30 let's end this with a bang
Except zefraath was actually cheated 😂
If Cimo ashed the gamma he would have been in a worse position because Joseph would’ve just used the gamma again on the cobra and cimo would’ve ended his turn with no play still and without ash in hand for Joseph’s turn 🫤
Gamma isn't once per turn, ashing gamma would be the worse thing you do in the situation
What a time to come back to yugioh, when my favorite deck gets a history of video
Cimo should have normaled ovi for overtex and then Minerva eff to get mills and trick clown out from underneath. late game overtex is great with a live snow because you can use all your dinos for snow and ovetex to summon and emeral them back while also establishing a s/t negate against the pend deck
CIMO THIS WAS MY LIST!!
I miss Grass so much please bring it back Komoney. Such a fun card when I draw it
If the result of Grass being permabanned is never seeing this garbage 60 card piles ever again I'll take Grass staying banned.
There’s no way we don’t make skull dread and draw 4 with our normal still available and 3 dead cards in hand lol
Just made it to game 2, but ogre has nothing to do with skull dread? We still had our normal
At least the 60 card Paleo decklist hit
Most of these types of piles always end up with confused hands of stand alone engines that don't really seem to get started
Alex’s deck really just looked like bad Dino’s.
I started playing left arm offering in my skull servant deck to get to grass in master duel 😂
I am pretty sure every Grass deck runs Left Arm to turbo into it. You only play Grass if it is a win condition card.
Almost this exact list (-3 ash and the small yang zing but with set rotation) is what I was playing since Zefra came out and it is the Pendulum deck that gives THE best feeling while playing. You can do so many different things which all do something different and all work better or worse against some decks. Chaofeng is so good in a format where top decks were earth, so you had an alright matchup against Zoo and an unbelievabe matchup agaist Spyral. Even today the deck can still do some cool things and I urge everyone who doesn't like Zefra zo give the deck a try. Every card is very straightforward but it uses the pendulum mechanic in a very interesting and meaningful way and you can still do some nice monster combos.
The best part about this is eventually it stops being history and starts being the news
On one hand, it's cool seeing cards that are still in use today. On the other, i have 0 desire to put those cards in either of these decks
I have been playing Zefra lately but with superheavy. Deck still is somewhat viable, especially at the local level. Its a really cool design for a deck.
Do you have a decklist you can share?
Interesting how Alex says that one is a bad field, after making so many mistakes during the turn. Of course it is a bad field if you don't play your hand to its upper potential, for example searching the Dino to banish it using left arm. The deck IS good, not the player.
@giveawayoncimo No one falls for those scams anymore.
My dawg Zefraath the GOAT
Send from field off conduct still puts pendulum to extra
I’m excited about FLOD, the Knightmares and Mekk cards have been good friends of mine for years now.
I'm more so excited for thunder dragons later in the year
The shirt of shame from Joseph’s becoming a biohazard and potentially the next plot of the resident evil YuGiOh spinoff we’ve all didn’t know we wanted but all know we need is hysterical
The OCG has such a weird fascination with this deck.
It is pretty good with the dd/endymion/assault engines and electrumite
It makes auroradon
ocg loves midrangy decks that don't play into max c.
@@christophertomes6777 yeah like typically you can get away with a single pendulum summon to grab a 9 pillars of zefra strike
Love MBT acting like Foolish for Darkwurm is some insane gamebreaking play when Cimo is literally playing Grass lol
Hey, Jacob Tipton got 3rd place with 60 card kozmo at the Louisville regional.
There's a deck profile and it could be singing for cimo to piolet in history of jank if that's not already pass this point.
Error at the beginning of the video said brain control but showed bottomless trap hole
Such a bad lunch not hitting giant rex game 3. It’s not like he could search it with fossil dig before firing the left arm offering
I think that's the first time I've actually seen someone summon Zefrath. Kudos MBT.
I had to ask myself before clicking, “Is this actually gonna be Zefra, or the goodstuff deck people call Zefra?”
Edit: IT’S ZEFRA FOR REAL! YEEEESSSSSSS
Was 60-card dino pile that influential to be featured 3 times in History?
2023 and I'm still running zefra🤙🏾
I mainly focus on ending with Vanity Fiend or Majesty Fiend first turn.
I'd comment about the cheats this episode but I'd be here till next week
Is that hard to just read the first line of text for UCT in game 3 😭
THIS was my favorite pend deck… besides 1st wave magicians in 2015 after the structure deck.
26:45 Providence could have protected all face up Zefras with the GY effect.
Yeahhh
And he banished it later lol
Im screaming through the screen, asking why cimo didnt go for saryuya. THe hand was awful tho, poor Cimo
God I love Zefra... it's like the one Pendulum deck I actually enjoy because it is so different (plus the art of all the cards is great too. Oracle of Zefra is still one of the most beautiful cards ever printed imo). I think it's kind of sad that it never became as popular here as it did in the OCG
60 card Zombie Dino brilliant fusion is the deck I had the most fun playing my whole life.
I built a dope 60 Magnet Warrior Rock deck around this time, but I had moved away from me hometown and had no locals to play at. Anyone that had to deal with me on Dueling Book or YGO Pro playing it, I'm so sorry. My name was (still is) Calskey
I feel like cimoo could've made saryuja game 1 instead of being greedy with minerva
Game 2 the line was normal Ovi, search overtex, reborn scorpio effect discard overtex, special cobra for brilliant fusion and search with overtex.
Just waiting for Metalfoe True Draco to rear its beautiful head. Access to Master Peace, Astro, Mite, rescue rabbit, Cyber dragon Infinity, and remain consistent. I miss that deck
@25:40 in a deck that runs Grass, Grass is almost always the best thing it could have been
22:09 that's going in the highlight reel for sure 😂😂😂
LETS GOOOOOOO
Tyranno can target itself for its effect. Didn’t need to keep popping your other cards after it got hit by Ghost Ogre.
Tyranno targeting one of the other monster still lets it resolve because had Tyranno target itself, it couldn't tribute itself after Ogre resolves.
Tyranno doesn't target, it only destroys on resolution plus it's an "and if you do" effect so it would need to destroy another monster to flip the other monsters down when it's destroyed by ogre
Conductor doesn't target a card to destroy for cost and destroys on resolution so if you Ghost Ogre, then you can't pop Conductor since he won't be on the field at resolution.
I was on the Zefra boat when Magicians were the popular choice. Miss the format
SKD Darkwurm is so cool. I started playing it in certain rank 4 strategies bc its so inevitable
Lightsworn where? Like really, you're literally playing ONE extra deck monster. I hate it here sometimes
one day they'll stop sending pendulum monster in the gy
Ive never understood why people run 3 pot of desires. I always just run 1 cause drawing the other with the effect FEELS TOO BAD.
It's a +1 and the odds of you seeing a PoD in hand turn 1 is the greatest with 3 copies. Those 10 cards it banishes face-down, you won't be seeing anyway.
Why was he sending 2 monsters to grave whenever mbt activated ghost ogre
60 cards no Wulf?
I guess no balls either
Game 1 14:29
Game 2 23:41
Game 3 31:31
Mbt forgot that zefra war can be act in hand
When they get to Flames of Destruction we better see Knightmare vs Crystal Beasts; the new Rainbow Overdragon was the anti-meta solution as none of the Knightmare protects its Co-Links from shuffling.
I feel like unless it got ycs tops crystal beasts will be relegated to history of jank. Kind of like how conclave control would be.
@@U1TR4F0RCE Then what's the alternative, a mirror match?
@@dadocta5168crystal beasts never was part of meta history, its a jank deck
@dadocta5168 Cimo was posting videos about the format at the start of May 2018 right after Flames of Destruction came out so maybe Gouki, Trickstar, Altergeist, Spyral, True Draco, and Pendulum Magician?
Since there's a 20 day period between flames of destruction and Dark Saviours bringing in Sky Strikers which Cimo had even put as an honourable mention in his old video.
@@dadocta5168Did you forget that Trickstar Striker was the actually good deck of the 2018 nationals season? Knightmare got one YCS top all summer, the real runners up of the format were True Draco and Sekka's BA.
Is this 60 card clown-blade dino zombie?
It cant be lightsworn dino zombie cause there are no lightsworns
Game 3. Tyranno cannot be reborn if it was summoned via double evo pill as it is not summoned correctly
I was to myself ITS MY DECK I PLAYED AT ATLANTA, but then after looking at it closely it’s not 😢😢😢 Dino in grass was broken, just being able to have different boss monsters that beat over everything was great
Damn Cimo played a lot of YGO here.
Zefraath is such a cool deck
Cimo misplayed Dinos so hard lmao
Perfect timing boss
We don’t dig for giant rex before left arming our hand 😭
I loved played zefra for so long I would just mash a million other engines into it
Look I know you guys are stalling so you don’t have to play Gouki format but iirc there was a period of about 3 weeks after FLOD released before the extra link gumblar shit was figured out soooooo
Idk, but that Oviraptor pop Rex to summon Conductor was illegal, cuz Ovi summon other lvl 4 or lower dino, anyway didn't matter, cuz as I can see from ppl in the comments, MBT summoned Zefraath wrong way
Whatever this match is like it is gotta be better than last week's or at minimum the gouki mirror.
Cimoo doesn’t know that ash can be used to stop gamma I see 🤦
Gamma isn't once per turn and it would have negated the cobra so it was just a a waste of an ash
I've seen so many comments about next week destroying the format, and have no idea what's going to happen. I'm scared. And excited? xD
I think on my variant I took out the Zombies and Dinos for Chaos Dragons lol
God hes playing it so bad i played 60 at this time and the combo was do good hes just sending pieces of the combos off in weird basic moves ahh
Rip to the brain control that was never on the video
This 60 card pile reminds me of a terrible half joke deck I used to play at locals around this time. Built a deck that was Bujin Dinosaur list with the idea to use Bujin Yamato to discard Overtex Qoatlus to search double evolution pill as a follow up the next turn with an Ultimate Conductor to attempt to OTK. How did I aim to survive through the FTKs when my plan was Yamato pass? Artifact Scythe of course. Called the deck my B.A.D. (Bujin Artifact Dino) deck. Absolutely awful deck but I definitely had some fun seeing opponents look at me like “what the fuck are you playing” when you discard a dinosaur off of Yamato or double summon Yamato and Oviraptor turn one. Wouldn’t say I did “good” with the deck but it definitely did better than I should have with how stupid the idea was
24:27 why didn’t we ash the gamma?
Wait grass is still legal around this time
Alex not ashing the gamma 😂
Chosen of Zefra sleeves.
Question is that does MBT play Chosen of Zefra in Zefra? 🤔🤔🤔
where is pendulum S0 build that got 2nd against word chalice?
how did anyone ever think 60 card decks are good. if you don't draw grass you do nothing and if you draw grass you do less than what other decks do.
I thought that Ash could stop Gamma because it specials from deck...am i wrong ?
So you can ash gamma but then you summon darling cobra activate the effect and Joseph chains gamma... we end up in the exact same gamestate but you wasted an ash for no reason
@@mattr791 I thought gamma was a hard once
Some people in the comments section don't know Gamma isn't once per turn.
UCT would not actually have sent that zefranui to the gy, idk which but you either wouldnt be able to activate the effect or it’d still go to extra. Pends are very weird about this stuff so understandable.
For the record: They go to the Face up extra here.
A case where you wouldn't be able to activate is when you are trying to send a Pendulum from field to grave as a cost.
As UCT sends as effect, you can use the effect but the Monster is sent from Field to Face up extra deck instead. Similar to if a Monster with an effect like "If this card leaves the field, banish it instead" was there
Gotta love cheating because they forget ghat UCT wasn’t properly summoned
