  • A Yu-Gi-Oh deck is normally made up of some combination of Monsters, Spells, and Traps. Monsters are typically the star of the show and are backed up by Spells and Traps. But we were wondering if you can make a deck of ONLY Spells or Trap cards. And would a deck like that even work? So we dug through all our Spell and Trap cards and crafted decks of the best ones we could find! One deck is all Traps and the other is all Spells. Which deck will reign supreme? Let's find out!

  • @pol610
    @pol610 Год назад

    A couple of ideas.
    1. A time trial duel, like having Final Countdown automatically at the beginning of the duel. First to defeat their opponent within ie: 20 turns. Draw if the turn limit is reached.
    2. A Life Points goal, ie: first to 20k LP, not accumulated but just the actual LP going to or beyond the set goal. You can burn your opponent to halt their LP down. Monsters effects or battle damage still applies.
    3. Each deck of their own. Both will build a deck but the other will use the deck built by their opponent. On the spot strategizing. Every draw is likely unknown to you.
    Alot of these could still be revised. Its just at the top of my head atm.

    Spells have better strengths than token monsters. Wave Motion Cannon and Cauldron of the Old Man, with magic reflector to make them survive longer; clock tower prison to make you unkillable by direct attacks, I have a "mostly spells" deck that does pretty well against old school stuff (my friends didn't really update past synchro and we play quite casual). The few monsters I have are just for "alternative" removal like lava golem and ra sphere mode, or survival like scapeghost.
