Seeing the Crystal Beasts in action brings me back to my sophomore year of high school. There was a group of upperclassmen that would meet in the library in the morning before school and duel. One of them had a Crystal Beast deck with Crystal Beacon, dude would call it Crystal Bacon, never ceased to make me laugh a bit.
Awww those were the days I was playing Yu-Gi-Oh way before the ban list existed and friends of mine would play before school during school and after school those were the days. I remember a friend of put that Yata lock on me and I really felt like I got sent to the shadow realm lol.
The first duel let's see if my ruling skills are correct: The opponent was not able to chain block the revival golem summon from grave effect with the Tackle Crusader effect to return Necrovalley to the hand. The Revival Golem is a mandatory effect when sent to the grave so it was forced to activate first. The Tackle Crusader is an optional effect saying "You can" after being sent to the grave. Mandatory effects always happen before optional effects. So the order of the chain was forced to be mandatory effect of Golem as Chain Link 1, then the optional effect of Tackle Crusader as Chain Link 2.
To those wanting to play Crystal Beasts, you should know it’s weaknesses: 1. This deck is very reliant on searching. A well placed Ash Blossom or Droll and Lock Bird will shut down your turn. 2. Artifact Lancea will shut down Bridge of Salvation and CB Rainbow Dragon, as they rely on banishing to activate their effects. 3. Going for Overdrive Turn 1 will leave you vulnerable to board breakers. 4. It is a Rogue deck that relies on going first, so you have to play floodgates and know your opponent’s deck. Source: CB player since 2008, started playing competitively since late 2022.
I've recently built the deck and to my humble surprise, it's not only far more playable than it's ever been but actually quite an intriguing deck with how it's strategies can be implimented regardless of the situation. Glad a deck of the GX era has gotten great support. Same for Cyber Dragon/Cyberdark.
This brings a tear to my eyes. I was a OG Crystal beast player when they came out but sadly lost interest in the game because of the power creep. But now seeing crystals back as a meta option makes me so happy
Beside loosing to every frickin' hand trap on planet earth, this is a very fun deck. I was looking forward to play it in MD since I played it at Locals.
I can't believe this dude decided to joke about the opponent taking a long time to decide when faced with that monstrosity of a field while he literally spent 5 minutes doing his combo.
I haven't played Yu-Gi-Oh since probably the third or fourth set up I saw this deck at the store and couldn't stop thinking about it. I have no clue what happened in this video but I'm now on my way to those recommended channels to learn. Great video
That last duel the guy must of went afk and just went speechless when he saw the new rainbow dragon and was like HOW AM I GONNA BEAT THAT and was thinking really hard
@@anthaz4869 I'm pretty sure he was figuring out a way to get rid of Knightmare griffon though since it's essentially skill drain and without griffon he'd be able to get rid of rainbow dragon
As someone who returned to yugioh from master duel and kinda wants to play physical I think it would be super cool to see an ultimate starters set available you seems to be the first point of contact for many new players and i think it would help a lot of people... i dont know how hard it would be to sell cheap decks with sleeves+ though
I've had a crystal beast deck irl for a fat minute, and I assumed it would absolutely suck on master duel because of how long and complex the combo gets (dragon turbo variant). I bet a lot of time losses will occur this first couple weeks. Unless the advanced build is a much shorter combo.
Konami can troll everyone and make ally of Justice cards broken by making a couple monsters and a field spell that just like zombie world but changes attributes on your opponent’s side of the field and grave light. And some extra effects.
Still sucks that Rainbow Dragon is hard to hit at times because Master Duel follows OCG rules. In TCG, you can have more than 7 CB with different names and bring it out. In OCG, YOU MUST have 7 only But hey, we doing it well!!!
@Jaevon Ingram IDK about RDD, but I had to do a LOT of research to figure out the conditions for RD in Master Duel and the conclusion came after checking online. Dumb, I know, but that's Konami for you. Lol
The only thing that i don't like about the deck is that if You are not that used to combo deck you can easy lose by time which is sad, but yeah the deck is very powerfull specially in one on one duals, just remenber to practice so You won't run out of time like me. Now do a conclave versión next please.
TeamSamuraiX1 4 the Main Deck of your pretty much God Tier in a way Advanced Crystal Beast Deck from/in this video here's how many/much cards I highly recommend adding just 2 try & help make it even stronger/more powerful/seemingly unbeatable/unstoppable than be4! 4 additional/extra Regular Effect Monsters 2 very 1st Equip Spells 4 little bit more variety of options that/which come in handy/work well in this deck 10 additional/extra Traps (very 1st Continuous alongside additional/extra Hand Trap Effect Monsters, additional/extra Counter Traps & additional/extra Normal Traps)
imagine you are playing crystal beast. You are making a combo for 300 seconds, and in the end of your turn, you have not a single Crystal Beast on the field that has any impact. Modern Yugioh I think.
ok so im getting the start up of the combo ready but every time i link summon number 60 its not letting me use its second effect only the first and third ability what am i doin wrong
YOO THANK YOU FOR THE SHOUTOUT SAM!!💙💙💙
CRYSTAL BEAST ENJOYERS RISE UP!!!

My guy hit the big stage! 🙌🏼

Following dread and Neshy for a long while and here we are!

This is really good info I always forget about the order of optional and mandatory effects

This is a deck I’d never thought would be anywhere near the words tier 0. Finally, it’s their time
I hate to break it to you but it's just click bait
@@nightphoenixv thank you😂
this deck ain’t even tier 2 lmao
@@nightphoenixv Yeah, I commented when I simply saw the title, and now I’m saddened
@@dancingqueen5428 I feel your pain
I swear Sam waits like 300 seconds in each duel, there's no way every single match he records he always fights the timer
He does have to explain the deck and other stuff
Yeah, but peep the duel at 9:50, it starts, he plays pot, and then a cut and like 60 seconds are gone
Not to sure why lol
I didn't even notice tbh
TeamSamurai and Neshy in one video? What a time to be alive!!!
Beside loosing to every frickin' hand trap on planet earth, this is a very fun deck. I was looking forward to play it in MD since I played it at Locals.
I'm glad someone said neshy. I've been watching him for the past month working on my tcg crystal beast.
The deck you built definitely slaps hard.
😎
i would just surrender as soon as i see u have 3 monsters on the field and all those effects..
Its amazing seeing Sam finally play my favourite deck
Crystal Based comment
I always get thrown tf off when I hear dub names I was saying johan then sam screamed jessy anderson lmao
I can't believe this dude decided to joke about the opponent taking a long time to decide when faced with that monstrosity of a field while he literally spent 5 minutes doing his combo.

I would love to see how many duels it took get the 3 wins, like how many games did he record dying to ash blossom
Ashblossom is broken
have a good day sam
I wish they bring back Red Eyes Dark Dragoon on master duel.
Bring Back Wind Statue Aswell I Want To Play Floo Again
@@JordanW5903 ah hell nah
@@JordanW5903 you don't need a floodgate to play floo though, they're completely fine without it
I love to play Dragoon, but I hate when my opponent plays him. he is like a one man army
@@JordanW5903 if you need wind statue to purely play that deck, i think its a skill issue bro
Incredible build bro! This is something I will definitely be exploring soon!!
Thank you to the person who gifted me a Membership for this channel!!
FINALLLLLYYYY!!! I Remember when you did a deck profile for Crystal beasts so I thought you'd never make a master duel CB deck thank you SAM!!!
That last duel the guy must of went afk and just went speechless when he saw the new rainbow dragon and was like HOW AM I GONNA BEAT THAT and was thinking really hard
I think it's moreso because of the Knightmare griffon. Rainbow overdragon isn't as good as Knightmare griffon
@@Honest_Mids_Masher No i mean the rainbow dragons attack is 11k he was prob clueless on what to do
@@anthaz4869 I'm pretty sure he was figuring out a way to get rid of Knightmare griffon though since it's essentially skill drain and without griffon he'd be able to get rid of rainbow dragon
THE ULTIMATE DRAGON OF DESTRUCUON :OOOOOOOOO
I enjoy your Videos so much ✌🏻
Can't wait to make this deck tonight! Another great video, Sam!
Btw, where is the Blue Jay hat?!?
I’ve been WAITING for a crystal beast video! I’m so happy 😭😗
I absolutely loved Crystal Beats always; I'm so glad this deck exist, so maybe I can finally build a deck out of them and have fun😍
So unless you memorize that combo, you’ll never get that within the time limit
I’m talking about his first replay
I just built Crystal Beast today. What a coincidence....
I have been begging sam for a rainbow dragon deck since his master duel videos came out, and now it's finally here.
Bro I was looking to see if u made a video about this last night lest gooooo
a complete decklist would be much appreciated 🙏🏻
respect for the shoutouts during the video a lot of people dont do it even tho they got their combos from other creators
shoutout to the first opponent that he just watched the whole combo and just hope that sam run out of time ;D
As someone who returned to yugioh from master duel and kinda wants to play physical I think it would be super cool to see an ultimate starters set available you seems to be the first point of contact for many new players and i think it would help a lot of people... i dont know how hard it would be to sell cheap decks with sleeves+ though
Sam you should do a old school do panic vs bones I want to see that match
@TeamSamuraiX1, plz create and show cubic deck!!
Dude- if you could make a Gate Guardian God Tier deck- imma lose it! Especially with Maze of Memories out, it'd be perfect timing.
Love how we dont want to acknowledge the encroaching hell that is upon us.
I really want a video dueling with Neshy
Even my Mystic Mine at home deck couldn't beat this at least going second
this was legit my VERY FIRST GAME vs some mf look 7 minutes to summon 6 monsters with 3k damage each.. balanced af.
I've had a crystal beast deck irl for a fat minute, and I assumed it would absolutely suck on master duel because of how long and complex the combo gets (dragon turbo variant). I bet a lot of time losses will occur this first couple weeks. Unless the advanced build is a much shorter combo.
Lol I wrote this before I even started watching... Now I see I am probably gonna be correct.
Finally a vifeo where crystal beast gets used It's also the deck that i've been playing recently

Is that what it is? Holy. Bro, I’ve been wondering whyI couldn’t get out rainbow dragon. That’s some bs. Is rainbow dark dragon the same way?
@Jaevon Ingram IDK about RDD, but I had to do a LOT of research to figure out the conditions for RD in Master Duel and the conclusion came after checking online.

I'm extremely happy about this I actually play crystal beasts in game and irl
Took the whole turn timer tho I bet that guy was pissed.
i really like teardrop from mame i like how the rikkas all got reprinted too
It's not pure Crystal Beasts but it's more of them in the deck than I expected so that's good
Finally the Crystal Beasts are playable, my dream since they debuted in GX
I APPRECIATE THE SHOUTOUT!!
That was very crystal based of you 🤍
bruh, conclave control! IT'S REAL AND IT'S HERE!
Amazing deck, now I wanna see you using rainbow bridge of salvation with dragunity :D
Amazing video as always
i used to run grass is greener with this deck in duel links and get turn one or two rainbow dragons lmao, fun deck but bricked extremely often
Here's a fun deck idea. Heart of the Underdog with pendulum monsters and Exodia pieces.
@TeamSamuraiX1 nice deck for Crystal Beast. I'll do my best to practice it also your videos are awesome 👍👍👍
I hope you haven't forgotten my predaplant deck
LEZGOOOOOO A CRYSTAL BEAST VIDEOO
Hey Sam, could you maybe try to win with musical sumo dice games? It has a weird effect to instantly win the duel.
God damn only been like an hour since it came out and man alr has a vid
Thanks man ive been asking for so long for you to play Crystal Beasts thank you 🌈
Deck is insane but time is kinda issue here for me NGL I try this deck half time reading stuff if not use to combo time just ran out in mid combo
TeamSamuraiX1 4 the Main Deck of your pretty much God Tier in a way Advanced Crystal Beast Deck from/in this video here's how many/much cards I highly recommend adding just 2 try & help make it even stronger/more powerful/seemingly unbeatable/unstoppable than be4!
4 additional/extra Regular Effect Monsters
2 very 1st Equip Spells 4 little bit more variety of options that/which come in handy/work well in this deck
10 additional/extra Traps (very 1st Continuous alongside additional/extra Hand Trap Effect Monsters, additional/extra Counter Traps & additional/extra Normal Traps)
Oh boy, I love that thing!
I literally JUST got rid of my crystal beast cards for my DM & Swordsoul decks 😭
Sam please make video about lightsworn ishizu
Will you do a Fluffal deck one day? I wanna see you send your opponents to the shadow realm with plushies.
This looks really cool, but it would take me ages to memorize the combos lmao
New tsx1 video less gooooo
Always entertaining🙏🤙🏽
dread guy the king of crystal beasts
I LOVE HOW SAMS FAVORITE DECKS ARE 30 MIN COMBO DECKS THAT CAN BE DISRRUPTED WITH A SINGLE ASH XDDD I LOVE THEM TOO SAM (SORRY FOR THE CAPS XD)
Can you PLEASEEEE Make a Crystal Beast Playmat and deck box 😭🙏🏼 That would be sooo cool ❤️🔥
How does this man have 99 THOUSAND normal and Rare token, like yoooooo hand some over my guy 😭
I love the pretty dragon, also loved the deck you built
Necrovalley turbo: The Deck

Bro made me wait a year to see rainbow dragon 🤣🤣😂😭
Crystal beasts will always be my favorite ❤️
Hey Sam I love your videos, but can you do the most broken raidraptor deck in master dual
The adamancipator guy can't choose the order of trigger effects, was that bronze!?
yeah this deck is going to make alot of oppenents rage quit, mostly for how long its combos take.
Yoo I have Crystal Beast in real life and all my friends too
This is my Favorite deck!!!!!!! ohhhhhh how about a battle between you and sykunooo Crystal Beasts vs Gem Knights :D
Nearly max time on first turn be funny if they get tributed for lava golem which it seems everybody is playing because of Sprite
I know someone called dualtainer I wanna see you two duel supreme one vs crystal beasts
Dam this deck is crazy but Dark Magician is my favorite Blue-Eyes is next this deck is 3rd
Yessss!!! Crystal beasts!!!
OMG! Jesse...
Anderson!
ok so im getting the start up of the combo ready but every time i link summon number 60 its not letting me use its second effect only the first and third ability what am i doin wrong
How do you unlock crystal beasts? They're my favorite archetype. I just started master duel
OH MY GOD JESSE!
