Another fun normal summon I’ve been testing is formud skipper, which can copy the name of a mekk knight in the extra deck to make the links, and searches parallel exceed for rank 4 plays
As a long-time going-first mekk-knight purist, this video makes me both happy as well as deeply uncomfortable. That's probably due to my having to shill out like £150 for a playset of Orcust Girsu soon, but oh well.
Trap Monster Rulings: If its trap effect that treats it as a monster is negated, it gets stuck in the S/T zone. If it's trap effect is negated while it is already a monster, it returns to the S/T Zone as a trap card, and is now stuck there. This is because they only summon themselves as trap monsters as part of the effect that happens when the card is activated. Other trap cards that become monsters, like Shade Brigadine and the Paleozoics, are NOT treated as trap cards anymore, so negating their effect(s) won't return them to the S/T zone (and further, negating the effect of Shade on its activation, it won't get stuck, as it is still a normal trap at the time). To also add to this, is that if you negate the monster effect(s) of a trap Monster, it will not return to the S/T zone unless you also negate the trap effect that treats it as a monster. So an Infinite Impermanence activated from hand won't revert it, but one activated in the same column would return the trap Monster to the S/T
I like your commentary on how while this isn't going to be meta relevant, it's still a fun deck to play. I played a similar build (that might have inspired this) in the latest RCS largely because it was pre-ETCO but I might still hold onto it because of Girsu's pricetag. Besides, it's my constitutional RIGHT to go X-4 at locals, and with this, I can have fun doing so.
Hey MBT, idk if you're interested in it, but maybe you could make a 10 minute testing on the dark hero nemeses malicious loop combo deck. Or maybe the zombie world varient of it.
Cherubini.. my love !! My BA would be nothing without her ! I made a video demonstrating a combo she can accomplish with PK it's insane (but it's in French ahah)
Eldlich was needed. Konami wasn't making any new good archtypes, rocks were also too neglected I was starting to feel sorry. Problem is, both decks lack restrictions and can incorporate unfair shìt. Eldlich itself isn't a problem, just a great control deck but it can add degenerate engines (draw a tuner, make 3 negate appol wtf), while Adamancipator can add all the unfair that exists in yugioh (block dragon was always broken, just no synergizing archtypes existed, auroradon combos are ridiculous, konami printed too many non-archtypal negating synchros etc.) If eldlich only had its pop+negate and some floodgates, and adaman could end on its own synchros (a dd crow and negate...hell maybe a crystal wing too) these decks would be strong but not unfair.
@@boraaksitozgun9912 So basically you just want Konami to "fix" their new problems and just go back to people bitching about shaddoll invoked, salamangreat and Dino when old problems return? This god damn cycle never ends with you people.
@@mathunit1 because that's yugioh. Decks come, decks go. Some cards/combos become unfair, show that in tourney results (tcg or ocg) and they get hit on banlist eventually. If Eldlich and Adaman will stay as meta after lockdown ends, show it in tourney results, they will eventually get hit. Meta shìfts by releasing good new archtypes and banning old broken cards/combos.
You say that they're nothing to do with adamancipators and eldlitch, but have you ever played Adamancipator Eldlitch? basically it's just a mash of 2/3rds of an eldlitch deck and adamantias w/ ultimaya tzolkin as a payoff.
I love rolorolo but, I hate the multiple zoodiac combos he played. Combo such to draw cause it has a bad effect and you need to discard a zoo monster with blade to turn on some of your most important cards like chakanine. The only time it's good is mid game either to discard with blade after you got GY set up or send with a rat that you hard draw or have a tenki for. But, that's very situtational. I can maybe see playing 1 of them but, playing 3 is clunky and lead to rolorolo losing.
Ok, here is the list of cards that I think need to get hit next banlist, add your thoughts. Apolusa. She is way too easy to summon and never comes with less than 3 negates. She is never a bad play and always is live, being way too oppressive as a defensive option against handtraps and as angressive monster in unbreakable boards. In short, if Apolusa hits the field, you won’t likely activate your combo pieces. Lightning Storm. This card makes playing any backrow deck or strategy immediately unviable. The expectation being Eldlich, which only can survive it because every piece of backrow in that deck floats. Furthermore it’s versatility by being a “quasi” raigeki means that even against non backrow decks or fields it is safe. Halqafibarx. This card turns any combination of monsters with a tuner into a double negate, at the very least. It enables every strategy way too constantly, all while being too strong of a play on its own.
Just my thoughts: In theory I agree with Halq, but the TCG rarely bans cards so soon after they come out (especially since people have been struggling doing IRL play during this time). Realistically what would work instead would be hitting the cards which work with it, either tuners like O-lion and Jet Synchron or synchros like Borreload Savage Dragon. Then they can unban them again later down the road when they think people have had their go with Halqifibrax. Apollousa isn't used as much anymore in my experience because of all the other bosses Halq enables, maybe it could get a hit on the next banlist on, after the Halq combos have been hit down a peg. (Or from a Konami perspective, after it's been reprinted, although by then Dragoon will probably be legal and Apollousa will be re-powercrept). Then again I'm not sure, perhaps it could be banned next list if the list was quite ruthless. Lightning Storm is strong, but right now going-second decks need all the help they can get. Again, perhaps when the more powerful going-first options have been weakened by the banlist, this card could be addressed on the list after. Also, I suspect the reason why it feels like such a big deal now is because Eldlich is forcing everyone else to main (or at least side) it. If they reduce the power of Eldlich, Lightning Storm will see less play so you won't have to worry about it as much.
IamGrimalkin my main argument for lightingstorm is that it makes any other backrow deck immediately unviable. Altergeist? Traptrix? Paleo? Even “shudders” mystic mine control. They are all immediately unviable. Eldlich isn’t good because of lightningstorm. It’s in spite of it. Furthermore it makes splashing traps as engines completely worthless. Compulse, strike, lost wind usw. are just not worth it, when your opponent can go +2 for just having 1 card in hand
@@frankwest5388 Well I don't think it does make Altergeist unviable, seeing as they recently topped in an online tournament. Lightning Storm is bad against mine burn compared to their backrow removal (especially cosmic and unending nightmare), so the fact they aren't doing well has nothing to do with that. My point is that Lightning Storm only seems so omnipresent now because Eldlich is so strong and everyone is putting in a counter for it. If Eldlich got hit on the banlist, much less people would play lightning storm (in the maindeck at least), so other backrow decks wouldn't have to face it as often.
"i'll be building this in paper." idk man. is this actually better than other mekk variants or does it just seem more interesting by comparison of being fresher? i guess i'm questioning the wisdom of running a bunch of otherwise dead cards on the offhand chance you draw into a 2-of in order to.... get a fogblade and MAYBE an extra summon on the opp turn if your hand happens to have a spare mekk AND the conditions for orange sunset are met?
MBT: Are you bored and alone on a Sunday?
Me covered in cheeto dust and watching yugioh videos: How'd he know
Wow, i never thought that a normal intro feels so weird
Such as the way of breaking the norms. :P
*MBT wanting to say "It's consistent"*
MBT: It's... good at finding the same lines every game!
Me: You Sly Fox!
He's consistent at saying it's consistent!
Orange sunset being a sangan target is still the most pOg tech ever witnessed.
Yo the "skip deckbuilding" time marker slaps you into the middle of a match. It should be around 3:49 not 4:38
It's nice to see that patreon list so long. Seemed not too long ago that you could get through it in 10 seconds. Keep up the great work!
Next 10 min testing: Meklord
That patron page at the end, oh my god dude you’re starting to sound like one of those guys who reads disclaimers at the ends of commercials.
That obvious evasion of saying "It's consistent." 😂
Another fun normal summon I’ve been testing is formud skipper, which can copy the name of a mekk knight in the extra deck to make the links, and searches parallel exceed for rank 4 plays
Still waiting on that Endymion TMT 😞
MBT: "You are statistically alone."
He knows too much.
Can you have your source at konami also ban any card with 'Eldlich' in the effect
Mekk Knights and fun: two things that shouldn't go together, but you somehow managed that herculian task.Outstanding.
As a long-time going-first mekk-knight purist, this video makes me both happy as well as deeply uncomfortable. That's probably due to my having to shill out like £150 for a playset of Orcust Girsu soon, but oh well.
You say that resonator is bad, but just you wait. Red supernova dragon will solve all the deck's problems
Man where did the comedy clip at the start went to?
I don't care what anybody says, MBT you have skillz and great deck ideas! Very entertaining!
today i looked for this deck and now youre making it ,respect man ^^
Trap Monster Rulings: If its trap effect that treats it as a monster is negated, it gets stuck in the S/T zone. If it's trap effect is negated while it is already a monster, it returns to the S/T Zone as a trap card, and is now stuck there.

So an Infinite Impermanence activated from hand won't revert it, but one activated in the same column would return the trap Monster to the S/T
Man, that Rolorolo17 guy is pretty neat! You should feature them more often and do TMTs with the decks that they build
Do a ten minute testing with karakuri
Love you mbt

I assume you found this list pre-ETCO, because playing pure Mekk-Knight without Girsu is just silly
Pure Mekk-Knights Without Orcust Mekk-Knight Girsu - Terrible! 🗣 🤯 💯
Are you gonna do a formud skipper eXceed salamangreat deck 10min testing?
Even in this small sample of testing I think dingirsu should find its way into the extra somehow
Cherubini.. my love !! My BA would be nothing without her ! I made a video demonstrating a combo she can accomplish with PK it's insane (but it's in French ahah)
Imagine how good the format would be if Adamancipator and Eldlich didn't exist.
You mean everyone going to play shaddoll invoked or salamangreat or Dino?

DRAGMA 10 MINUTE TESTING WHEN???
It’s crazy to expect a banlist before August
So other than its price tag for the actual card is there any reason to not play girsu? The plays it can allow seem a touch more potent...
