Small World - Explaining Staples
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Small World falls into the category of searcher. It has the effect to search basically any monster from your deck at the cost of banishing a monster from your hand face down, going minus 1 in the process. So if your playing a deck that needs exactly 1 specific monster to start all your combos, then small world is a perfect card for searching it out in a multitude of decks. The only thing preventing this card from being played in basically every deck is the fact it requires a bridge to search your specific target, and the minus 1. So for example, say we want to search Circular in mathmech. We have a random mathmech card in hand, like Addition. With small world, we have to then reveal 1 card in our deck who only shares 1 thing with it, between atk/def, level, attribute, and type. So we choose Parallel eXceed, since the only thing it shares is the cyberse type. Then we can only search a card that only shares 1 thing with Parallel eXceed, which Circlar meets since it only shares the cyberse type. So in this example, Parallel eXceed is the bridge, allowing you to use any other mathmech card to search out your most needed combo starter.

Small word falls into the category of "cards people don’t understand"
So damn true
If you have the reading comprehension of a 5 year old sure
@@animationtv426i used to think that it always had to be the exact same one thing in common between all three cards.
@@animationtv426 do you think Yu-Gi-Oh players are smarter than 5 year olds?
Along with people who just refuse to read timelords
The card lets us take a right turn by taking 3 left turns.
This is the most accurate description of Small World I have ever heard
I mean, it's the same in the end, right?
"Turn Left to Go Right! Thank you! Or should I say NO Thank you? Because in Opposite World, THAT REALLY MEANS THANK YOU!"

Lol yep.
Oh. Looks like this card is live. Let’s take a gamble and see what options it gives me!

If your archetype share at least two of ANYTHING all the time, it's a lot easier...
How it usually goes for me too 😖
You can't go wrong by just sharing Type or Attribute
everytime... :(
Well... you know what they say: We'll cross that _bridge_ when we get there.
That's pretty good!
He should've said banish 1 from hand and 1 from deck tbh to a beginner its not clear
if I were to negate it, does that mean I'm burning bridges?
Cards that are strong yet requires some deck investment arround it is the best kind of balance in the game imo
Small World often used to search for a Lava-Golem with Ash Blossom as a bridge.
I am using this in my D/D/D deck since lava golem bridges to any non
level 8 D/D or ash blossom and ash blossom inro my 0 atk monsters. Added one gadarla to make the level 8 D/D's a possible target with small world.
I was imagining ash extending herself over a gap for lava golem to cross...
Weird...
@@neonoah3353That's a stretch.
@@AbsoluteMongoloid i guess she would stre- *ash* herself a lot in order to do that. Lmao
In a world of One-Card combos, being able to just say "I can probably search one of my starters with this if I have literally any of my monsters in hand"
Is really nice.
Madolchebros, this is a certified banger.
And if it's Ashed, you dont even lose the 'cost.'
That's awkward moment when you actually banish the card you want to add and get the card meant to be the bridge 😮
You know that old game "six degrees of separation"? Thats the way Small World works. Using the video example, Addition is a Cyberse, like Exceed, and likewise Exceed is a Cyberse like Circular. Just as the saying goes "Its a small world."
But that's an easy one, lets go a bit more complex. I use it in my Mikanko deck to search both my Kaijus as well as Lava Golem if I don't already have them. My line goes as such: Reveal Ha-re in my hand. The important particular in this case is her level, specifically 3. Archfiend Eccentrick is ALSO a level 3, and thus my bridge. Now here's where things get fun. If I use her attribute (Light) I can grab either Thunder King or Jizukiru as both are Lights too. Or I can use her type (Fiend) and grab Golem as its also a fiend.
...or I can go level and grab Hu-Li or Ni-Ni. I actually have access to every monster in my deck, just off one connection, the fact that the Mikanko and Eccentrick level match. If there's one card I recommend everyone practice, it's this one.
damn if only I scrolled more I would've seen this. 3 cards and you only need one thing a pair have in common to make the bridge but the 3rd does not need it say wind warrior to dark warrior to dark fiend
@@Xeno-The-Wanderer correct. The key here is having at least one connection between all three cards in the line. So using my example:
First connection: Level Ha-re & Eccentrick: 3. Note that Ha-re can be any of the non ritual Mikanko, but she's one of the easiest to use.
Second connection:
* Attribute Eccentrick and Thunder King/Jizukiru: Light
* Type Eccentrick and Golem: Fiend
* Level Eccentrick and Ni-ni/Hu-li: 3
The easiest way to practice this is by looking at your own deck and seeing if there's any small world lines you can make right now. You've got the fundamentals down already, so all you need to do is give it a try. If the answer is no, then is there any monsters you can add that WOULD work as a bridge? It doesn't need to be as varied as Eccentrick is, as you might just need one specific card. Though obviously if you can swing it that way and be capable of searching several targets go for it.
Truthfully I just want more people playing the card. It's criminally underrepresented for how good it is.
@@MysticEle depends on decks, most I feel probably can work it but many decks probably have all the searchers they need that could also push their gameplan forward at the same time. Now if it’s to search generic stuff that could be interesting say someone thinks to use it to get Nibiru to push the opponent on the back foot when it comes to their turn (this scenario you’re first) or dimension shifter. Something that can screw over the plans of the opponent or heck in ocg/master duel grab maxx C to taunt the opponent though all of the examples are deck dependent but nibiru and shifter are probably the easiest due to prominence of light and dark
@@Xeno-The-Wanderer correct. Depending on how you make your lines, you could theoretically search handtraps, or non-sequence cards like Kaiju or Kurikara. So it has a spot even in decks with adequate searchers.
Yes. This card should be called Six degrees of Kevin Bacon
Gotta love when people want to pull out the small world calculator at locals lol
The WAT
@@Ramsey276one I imagine it's an app that lets you input a card in your hand and a card you want to search, and it gives you a list of cards you can use as a bridge.
What💀
Small World is the coolest card in Yugioh. It reminds me of warrior toolbox from the old days where your "bridges" can be utility cards or hand traps while also getting your best starting play.
What format u talk about?
@@elvenatheart982 Back in the earliest days of Yugioh one of the first best competitive decks was called "Warrior Toolbox" that used Reinforcement of the Army, then allowed at 3 copies, to search a bunch of single, powerful warrior cards (for that era) like Exiled Force, D.D. Warrior Lady, Don Zaloog, etc. The concept was you weren't quite a beatdown deck but you always had "toolbox" of different warriors for every situation.
@@elvenatheart982The one where things like 1 card combo doesnt exist
@@OnlyTheStrongest116 thats not helping or explaining anything, did you mean Edison , Goat, Tengu ?
Or just making an ominous comment for the sake of it, if so, then my reply is irrelevant I guess.
The only ones who hold back Small Word to become an ultimate staple is the illiteracy to understand the effect.
Yeah, me included 😂.
Tbf it’s not reading the effect that’s the problem it’s understanding it
Well And the minus 1
@@isidoreaerys8745the -1 doesn't mean anything when you can search any monster that you wanted as long you have the brigde when you can go -9 by using desires or -11 if they negate it and it was a staple to almost every deck back when it release
@@13thKingMudesires doesn't go -9. Cards in deck do not count for card advantage pourposes. Desires is a +1
In this presentation it looks as if ATK and DEF were interchangable (as if one monster's ATK could equal another's DEF or as if they could share both ATK and DEF) but these stats are actually separate properties to consider just the same as type, attribute, and level.
To match a monster to another via their stats, either their ATK or their DEF needs to be the same (but not both).
I used Small World as an example in a video essay im working on, and then i watch this and see that it can ONLY have 1 sharing feature when you bridge. Thankfully, the cards i listed in my bridging example still resolve correctly, so i dont have to re-edit that animation.
That just about gave me a heart attack, but at least that knowledge helps further my argument that decks that run Small World wouldn't want to run generic draw cards outside of Prosperity. Thats going straight into the PoG video now.
My favourite use of Small World is in my Banish Pile deck, I usually use Dogoran as my bridge to search Gren Maju or Gizmek Orochi depending on circumstance.
Nice
Thank you so much for having a short explanation for this, so dang often I have to tell people how this works or what's happening with smallworld
Another bridge for small world I use is Gizmek Okami in Vaylantz since it only shares the Machine type with the Machine half of Vaylantz and it only shares the Water attribute with the Spellcaster half
Vaylantz is the only deck that can literally search their entire pool of their key monsters and toolbox with this card.
0_o
*WHOA*
You're going to be a nuclear physicist if you can somehow understand how to use this card properly
It's really simple, just add in effect veiler and boom, any light monster is instantly girsu. Mekk knight sweep
If shown with visuals it's easy. Linear Equation Cannon however...
This is why I use cynet mining in my salad/mathmech deck. Good searcher that also allows me to maybe dump a salad card with a gy effect or sigma to get my combo going
Blackwings appreciated that card's existence immensely.
That's what I'm talking about! No Simoon, but a Small World and x applicable monster? Boom, I now have Simoon and can begin my combo.
Oh that’s how it works.
Small World is in 3 of my decks. I genuinely didn't know how the card worked until this video, and even now I'm not 100% sure of myself
Thank you very much. I've needed to add this card to my Vaylantz deck, and finally got 3 because of the Rarity Collection. Now i know how it works. Thank you so much ❤
I think the only thing makes small world not a top tier 1 card is the -1 banished face down, not even the bridge is stoping small world to run wild these days.
Also top tier 1 decks rely on multiple single starters that work more or less independent of each other, that make those decks pretty resilient to interruptions.
I taught a kid who thought Small world doesn't need a bridge about the card. He didn't have a bridge but his deck had Earth and Wind Monsters, so I gave him the Kaiju's to add to his deck since they can be a bridge based on attribute and would be of no help if not in starting hand anyways
I feel like my main problem with Small World is if I don't exactly memorise all my monsters and know which cards are still in my deck, I won't get the card I want lol. It's obvious but needs to be said. Especially if your deck has multiple types/attributes and like, 2 bridges to get to a certain card. It's an easy enough to understand otherwise
Finally, a guide for this card. Now i may play it 😅
Small World is a godsend in my Blackwing deck. I, I don't have Simoon but I have Small World and a Tenyi? Boom, Simoon is now in my hand ready to start my combo.
Fun fact: if you play swordsoul there is at least 3 Small World bridges to search for kurikara and punish any Kashtira players you might met on MD Duelist cup ladder. Seriously the number of times I have won because my opponents see me adding Kurikara to hand is whimsical.
Any Wyrm (except Chunjun) as well as Ash gets to Kurikara through Adhara or Longyuan.
Adhara and Longyuan can go there through each other as well as Ash.
Ecclesia gets there through Vishuda.
Anything else?
Madolche player here, we can small world for it pretty damn consistently as well
Hahaha publicly adding Kurikara to hand is such a big Dick move.
Small World is one of the most fun generic spells once you learn how to use it properly. It is insanely flexible if you know how to build your deck around it
honestly, I think the best way to use Small World is to designate a target that you *_absolutely need,_* and look for bridges that lead to it.
started implementing this mindset when playing Vanquish Soul in the recent Duelist Cup, every VS monster has one thing in common with their searcher Razen, so as long as you remember that, Small World gets your searcher guaranteed if left unchallenged.
That's how I use it in Blackwing decks. I pretty much NEED Simoon in my starting hand
I use Linkbelt Dragon as a bridge in Kashtira. Earth for Fenrir. 2100 DEF for Unicorn and Riseheart. 0 ATK for Ash. LV6 for Shifter. I also have other tech cards I can grab, such as Pathfinder and Nemeses Corridor. I can answer any bridge questions anyone may have for the cards I mentioned.
Thank you for explaining this!! Up to this point, I still didn't understand how this card worked.
Finally I understand this card. Never got why people played it until now.
Much needed short tbh
Good thing I stocked up on 3.
Small World in something like Madolche Vernusylph might seem like overkill, but it's very fun to use
In TCG, my bridge of choice is Aussa the Earth Channeler, which nabs you anything except Magilene, and still works even as a searcher if you pull it. In MD, you can use the infamous Maxx C instead to search anything you want, giving it a 2nd, less sinister purpose in your deck without dedicating deck space to use Small World.
D/D/D’s love small world as it basically searches any main deck monster
That is explained so much better than the way the card friggin explains it.
You really gotta wonder how they came up with this card.
"Example : you can use Kashtira to bridge another Kashtira"
Kashtira has this cool bridge: Linkbelt Wall Dragon: Level 6, EARTH, DRAGON, 0 ATK, 2100 DEF.
You can use Dimension Shifter (Level 6), Maxx "C" and Fenrir (Earth), Unicorn and Riseheart (2100 DEF) and Ash Blossom, Veiler, Droll, Ghost Ogre (0 ATK).
@@soulgain111MDM i see,
But i would say bringing a garnet for sole purpose of a bridge is just doesnt worth it.
1. You need small world in hand
2. You need the bridge in the deck
(3). You dont search Shifter since you cant use it afterward
Instead, just use the usual staple stuff
1. SK > Maxx C > Fenrir
2. Ash > Lockbird > Unicorn
3. Kurikara > Ash > Risehart
And kashtira already have a great bridge, Psi-Beast and Psy-Frame Driver + Gamma
Man i love small world, sickest card design
Small World is yet another card that goes great with Snake-Eye. Turns out Ash Blossom (to find any FIRE) and Veiler/Droll (to find Diabellstar) aren't just good handtraps, they're good bridges too. As if that deck needed any help.
Yugioh is the only TCG to make tutors complicated
So, you're basically banishing a monster from your hand and one from your deck, to add a third monster to your hand... and they can be linked in any manner to choose the latter two.
I know stuff like this is never played, but I feel that would work REALLY well in a D.D. (Different Dimension) deck... or any deck where stuff can return from banishment easily (or where the deck works best with a lot of banished monsters)
Also, just for clarification, you don't need to choose the same linking between cards.
You could use a Lv4/Fire/Warrior to search for a Lv8/Earth/*Warrior*, and then search for a *Lv8*/Dark/Fiend.
The cards are vanished face down, so outside of Psy-frame omega they're pretty much unrecoverable,.
@@HowlingDoom It's definitely a lot harder to do, but not impossible. As long as an effect doesn't specify a card name or type, it can affect f/d banished cards. Ones like Necroface or E. Hero Electrum allow you to shuffle all banished cards into the deck/s, while one of the Paleozoic cards lets you bring one banished card back to the grave (and being a trap, it's good in pretty much any deck, and not as specific in theme as the other two)
I feel Monarchs would not complain about this, but at the same time, all decks like this card as a searcher.
the thing that i don't understand about this card, is that you are never requested to reveal the first monster you choose from the deck. but i always see people do that.
It's to confirm that Small World is used properly. Since the first two cards are banished face-down and are not considered public knowledge, if you don't reveal the first deck monster, you could hypothetically grab whatever you wanted without acknowledging Small World's restrictions. Therefore, to prevent cheating, you are required to show what the bridge is.
The thing with Small World is exactly that. It is _too_ good at being a searcher, to the point that the deterrent of using Small World is the game's entire pool of monster cards.
I kid you not, there's a Small World online calculator for those that don't have the patience or reading comprehension needed to properly use the card.
I think people are confused because there should be more emphasis on the 'exactly 1' because people dont know it means 'only 1 AND NO OTHER'-- meaning the bridge card and any card it bridges cant have any more similarities (type, atk, etc.). So essentially a card can search itself if theres a bridge as a simple example.
Tellarknight/Constellar Link deck has only 1 combo monster, Constellar Shertain due to how constellar dont have searchig spell this card works well in this case
I get it now, but figuring out the bridge still hard as hel
And yes, non Mathmech players, it is fantastic when your bridge is a card you would be playing anyway.
Also, I was today years old when I realized this card has a picture of a dude. Is that S force Justify?
Basically it's card of the soul but more into lower level category and more Aneurysm inducing.
Another problem for small world is that not every deck has a bridge, so, sometimes, you will need to use a garnet, which just means that draw the garnet, and you are eefed.
It's a great and cool card, but suffers some of the most from "Math test syndrome". Where the card is so bloated with text and a bizzare ordering (Having to use the words "Reveal, Choose and Add" just to try and differentiate the three different cards, and then realising you actually banish the card from deck last for some reason) that it's easy for players reading to get lost and confused with what is actually quite a simple effect.
All the words don't quite register in peoples heads as "I banish a Dragon from hand, to banish a different dragon from deck, which lets me add another different dragon from deck to hand."
Finally i understand small world😭
I never got the "shares ONE thing part" kept wondering why I couldn't search a Kash monsters when banishing another.
Most Kashtira cards are both Psychic AND Level 7, which means they usually share two things in common.
Which is why a different Psychic, like Psy-Framegear Gamma or Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit would probably work better as a bridge, since all they have in common with most of the Kashtira cards is being a Psychic type.
Blackwings LET'S GOOOO!
Remember guys, Small World banish after response, so you can still bait an Ash with it and not taking -1 on the process if you already has your engine.
I run an amazoness deck in master duel, and since most amazoness are warrior type and amazoness baby tiger is usually the only beast type with the lower atk def and level compared to all the other monsters, maybe small world can do well there
The issue is that you need a bridge which share only 1 atk/def, level, type or attribute only. So, in most of the times, you may play one-off garnet which will make small world unplayable if the garnet is drawn.
should work fine. same reason lonefire is ran in rikka, its ok if drawn, but it can bridge any 1 card to any other as well.
@@BlindOracle00 At least Lonefire is good even if it is drawn. In Amazoness, you need Earth monster which is not Warrior or Beast. Or, need a Beast monster which is not earth which can be put in Amazoness.
So extremely powerful, but needs to be built around
I use a spare copy of Lonefire Blossom or Snkwdrop The Rikka Fairy to search my Sunseed Genius Loci.
Idea for a Spell and Trap version of this:
_Magician’s World_
Spell card
_Reveal 1 Spell or Trap in your hand, choose 1 Spell or Trap from your Deck that has exactly 1 of the same Type (Normal, Continuous, Field, Equip, Quick-Play, Ritual, or Counter), and banish the revealed Spell/Trap from your hand face-down. Then add, from the Deck to your hand, 1 Spell/Trap that has exactly 1 of the same Type as the Spell/Trap chosen from your Deck, and banish the card chosen from the Deck face-down. You can only activate 1 "Magician’s World" per turn._
This would be ridiculously busted
It's a small world after all 🎉
The card is pretty good I just wish it didn't banish the card face down but I guess we have to have our restrictions somewhere.
So it's like turning a left corner by going right three times...I mean it's still good for sure and I'm sure it'll get limited down eventually
So its: Reveal monster A from hand. Reveal monster B from deck that shares only one characteristic with monster A. Reveal monster C from deck that shares only one characteristic with monster B. Banish A and B. C goes to hand.
Did I understood correctly?
Or like in adamancipator nibiru is a amazing bridge
I think that card would be good or great in graveyard decks like shadowdolls maybe
Oh! That's how it works.
Uncle Duel Logs, I'm confused still. Can we get a whole vid of such with duel stuff on such please
i run across with this card when i was building my first speedroid deck and i can say i was afraid to use it wrong so i keep it as a last resort or a card cost
Thanos is that you!??
Remind me "weird YGO rule" in Team APS skit 😂😂😂
I should add this to my deskbot deck
Tfw being of the few who knew this before the short. 😂
This is like cynet mining
Yo my only question is who is the monster on small world because I swear that it's the S-Force link 3
It is him
Would this work in a Harpie deck? For example discarding a Harpie dragon in order to get Harpie Channeler in the hand?
Yeah you could use Harpies Dragon as bridge to harpie channeler as the only thing they share is attribute, wind. I don't think it'd be worth it in a Harpies deck tho, as I imagine most of the monsters you have won't make for a good bridge.
Ive been struggling to understand this card on a better fundamental level. Every time I think I have it figured out, I play it and end up missing my target. Idk if its time limitations or what that makes my brain shut tf down. Like I read the effect and understand it, but playing it is were I keep messing up
Yugioh it's so complicated now 😩 now it feels like school and homework, now I'm starting to believe a PhD in dueling should be a thing
true to the anime
Small World is actually a -2, since it banished both the monster from the hand AND from the deck. That's probably the one thing holding it back from becoming a staple since not all decks want to banish 2 monsters face-down.
Nah, the banish 2 doesn't matter if it's able to give you a card you need. The main reason it doesn't see more play is the need for a bridge imo. Some cards have an easier time using monsters as a bridge like pile decks.
i wonder whats the best decks that could actually run this card. small world sounds so cool, but can deck actually use it over their in archetype searchers?
I'm going to be the guy to point out that using small world in mathmech makes very little sense because of cynet mining.
Anyways, ignoring the "well, actually" part of this, it is a good example, and I'll try to remember this video if I ever need to explain the functionality of small world to someone.
Or maybe just set up 3 spots in my binder with cards that form a bridge, that would also work.
3 circular 3 cynet is only a 50% chance of opening circular, so mathmech players often play sw anyway.
@@gatocochino5594 fair point. I was pointing it out to be an ass anyways. if you couldn't tell, I don't know what mathmech plays at the moment
Like archfiend eccentrick with D/D/D
Ok, thats how it works
Small World is a free banish 2 cards with no upside because you did it wrong and didn't have a target.
I don't really get the idea of small world
in the example you just said why we reveal addition and the restriction of sharing only one thing is here applied ( in case of addition) or not
Activate Small World
Reveal Kuriboh in hand
Reveal Blue eyes chaos max in deck
Add Obelisk to hand
Kuriboh = God
Small world + sangan = gg
Is that s force
Aah small world or as i like to say circular copies 4, 5 & 6
I use kaijus as my bridge
This is also why parallel exeed is semi-limted in some formats 😂😂😂
2 banishes & 1 add
I still don't get it. We need examples. Who gets banished? What's a bridge?
Some time ago i asked my opponent, why dont you ashed my small world, his response was it a -1 in your hand, i win that duel, well yeah it a -1 but you can search your starter, in my case simoon, ive already have sudri, and he ashed the first activation of whirlwind, but you get the picture, he lost for not negating my small world 😅
But i reveal a card in my hand like assault synchron, i banish from the deck a level 2 like Vata a blackwing card, now i can search only a level 2 or i can search a card with the same type?
Dude someone chatted in the bg
