At this point I think its un questionable. This deck is insane. Season after season hitting Diamond 1 and now given the NEW Tear 0 Meta and still on track for Diamond one.

i would be happy i you guest me ❤ i won qualifer for the WC with my Endymion Deck and place 56 only because i stupid misplay with secret village on my turn 😢😢😢
19:55 For anyone wondering, no. He in fact did not have Accesscode Talker in the deck. I found the decklist after recording so this duelist just didn’t have a way to go for game this turn.
Come back after trying the deck 2-3 days ago (I wasn't really confident enough before to play this deck) with "optimum" build. I burn my URs and it is very worth it. It is a very fun deck and it gives different experience than other decks that I have played before. After I understand the basics of the deck, I change the deck a little bit. 1. I add Amorphage Sloth, this is a good and fast go 1st set-up. I don't really like long combos. 2. I switch Secret Village to Necrovalley, Secret Village sometimes hurts me more when I brick. For Necrovalley, this can be a good floodgates and spell counter without hurting my play. 3. Switch Spellbook engine to Magicians' Soul package. Didn't eat my normal summon, free level 1 for Anima, throw any Endymion/Mythical Beast to GY and reborn it with Selene, and change any "dead spell" to draw card. I think it is better because Spellbook needs some specific cards to work, when Magicians' Soul can work alone. . I think there are still a lot possibilities and potencies of this deck, and I need to learn more about this deck.
Glad you’re having better experiences with the deck! It definitely gives a unique experience as opposed to the same recycled combo every game with most other decks. 1. Amorphage Sloth looks like the best one to use since it has the level of Jackal King and scale of Abductor, so the deck already is familiar with utilizing something like it. 2. I also removed Secret Village since the spell format is over with. It’s now the graveyard format and I put in Necrovalley. 3a. I also removed the Spellbook engine because I found that the Ishizu cards were milling them from my deck and making the other pieces dead cards. I replaced them with Triple Tactics Talents because of how prevalent Havnis is and also how prevalent Tear-hate and Maxx C are. 3b. Also I never liked Magician’s Souls in Endymions because he has to send spells that you could’ve used to get you counters. Also the deck doesn’t use many HOPT cards besides Mastery and maybe a second Bestiary, so the spells you have typically can always be activated. Lastly, Souls sends for cost so if he’s met with a disruption, you’re essentially going -2 and probably will lose the game. I hope your able to better master the deck and have tons of fun with how satisfying it can be. Goodluck!
Shadow breaking those boards is hella satisfying, some of those duels I woulda scooped but my man played through it like a boss! Much respect to both you gentlemen and May God bless you!
Thank you (both)! Turns can indeed be very stressful and I have to admit that at times, it’s got me pressured to the point of negating Agido in the hand. But the best part about Endymions is that 80% of the time, there’s always a way out of a predicament you’re in that you just need to find.
Yeah Tears aren’t as threatening to us Endymion players as they are to everyone else. Due to how many Endymion players are in Diamond this season. It raised us and heroes to Rogue tier.
I also have a Hero deck (got to D1 last season, becoming the first time I hit D1 not using Endymions). The biggest upside to using Endymions this format is because of all the graveyard hate. Other decks are using cards like D Shifter and Dimmensional Fissure and they pass on just that so Endymions can decimate their board. Tear players rely on their Ishizu shufflers to be even more disruption but Endymions are unaffected. For Heroes though, Tear can still be very problematic because of those graveyard shufflers. Fortunately Malicious banishes for cost but DPE is not a boss-monster against Tear anymore. They can still Sulliek Vyon. Handtraps are still an issue. And don't forget anti-tear decks use cards that also destroy Heroes because they're anti fusions and anti graveyard. I agree that Heroes are still very strong but I'm not sure how this format is good for Heroes as it is for Endymions.
@@shadowspector3611 I think it’s because of turbo plasma out along with Dark law and have dark angel on there field it’s almost practically a gg. I once did a board with dpe, plasma, and mist all in defense position. Summoned angel on opponent board. Special summon Dark law in draw phase. It was gg for the tear players. But I do think it isn’t as strong as Endymion. You can play whatever variation of Endymion & do well. My biggest complaint is TCBOO. Anyone running that card (mainly subterror or control deck players) basically beats me every time cause I can’t respond to it with Endymion effect. Which is weird cause it doesn’t say no cards can respond to it.. yet I can’t do just that lol.
@@PridedWaif Unfortunately you can't use Plasma and Dark Angel on the same board because Plasma negates Dark Angel's effect, unless Konami creates a new card that allows Dark Angel to be unaffected by your own card effects. Also I forgot about how Dark Law is the Tear-counter, but I'm more referring to going second since you'll lose every coin toss in Diamond. Of course both Endymions and Heroes can wreck Tear if you go first just by getting 6 negates or committing to a Dark Law play. And you aren't getting a response window to respond with Endymions? That's strange because TCBOO definitely can be negated. Is your toggle off or are you going against Labrynths where they say "your opponent cannot respond to your trap activations"? There might be some hidden effects for Subterrors as well that make their trap effects spell speed four.
That would be a great card for going first and if you know you will be going first, I’d encourage it as a good tech since it’s so easily searched, summoned, and does not conflict with your scales (if you’re only going to pen summon from your hand). For me, I only like the spell counter pendulums so I wouldn’t run it, but i wouldn’t think other people using it would be a bad option.
My mom has been having some major health issues. She has had 3 surgeries in the last few months and my father is also going through some stuff. Just have kind of been dealing with some IRL stuff at the moment. Hoping to get back to normal real soon. Thanks fir checking in! I really appreciate that
He wasn’t worried about the card in hand. He wanted to be able to negate the monster he sent to grave so that the effect wasn’t chain blocked so that the opponent wouldn’t send to grave from deck. If that’s what o understood I think
I see what you mean. Rhinoheart wouldn’t be able to activate since the card in his hand was not a Tearlament. I think in the moment, I was terrified of the chain blocking and wanted to make sure I made the right plays, so I played safe. And in explaining the replays, I was talking about my mindset. It is still important to keep in mind that you should play around the chain blocking, but in this specific scenario, I could’ve popped everything.
That is correct. In fact with the new addition of Mythical Beast Bashilisk, I now use Jackal’s effect three times in one turn regularly. It’s even possible to use his effect four times. One time is to normal summon him and remove three to summon Jackal King. Then use (another).Jackal King to pop himself and summon back Jackal. Use Jackal again to remove three and summon Bashilisk. Then use Magister to remove three and summon himself out and Jackal again. Use Jackal a third time to remove three and summon Jackal King. Then you can use Bashilisk to remove three and add Jackal back to your hand. Summon Selene to refill your board with counters and use her effect to remove 3 and summon Jackal. Then use Jackal for a fourth time to remove 3 and summon Garuda. Then you can go into Abyss Dweller. There you go: Mythical Beast Jackal 4 times in a turn and is not only possible, but practical as well.
But also Jackal King can use its effect multiple times as long as it leaves the field and comes back. The regular plays of Selene allows me to reuse my negates. So if I use Jackal King’s negate and bounce him back with an Endymion negate, I can use Selene to remove three to summon back Jackal King for another negate. On my rank up game to get into M5, I summoned two jackal kings out and my opponent triggers Kelbek. I negated and he used his graveyard effect so I negated again. Then I went into Electrumite and pendulum summoned back my two jackal kings. I used Bestiary to mill two and my opponent tried to use two Bystials to banish what I milled. I then triggered both Jackal Kings again to negate and leave them with only two cards in hand. And I still ended my board with 6 negates (2 jackal kings, Selene, Magister summoning Endymion from extra deck, and Endymion summoned from pen scale to pop).
Great showcase of endymion vs tear! I would like to see shadow play vs exosister cuz, as an endymion player myself, I am having some difficulties vs that singular deck and their banish shanenigans.
I absolutely hate Exosisters too. They’re incredibly difficult with Endymion. I did have a replay where I beat Exosisters when I went second but I couldn’t save it because my replay list was packed. I figured people would be more interested in seeing me go against Tear instead. But I do stream the deck so you’ll most likely see how I face off against the deck live.
Yea. Chicken game is the card off the top of my head. Reason being I could draw one and it would be a field spell to pop with ancient fairy dragon. Still need to look though. I haven’t had a chance to make content do to mother being sick but I’ll make a comeback real soon
@@bogdantopalovic7546 appreciate it! I actually answered this thinking it was my other deck hahah. I’m actually going to have shadow answer this one. I’m sure he already has replaced it with a great card.
@@bogdantopalovic7546: Hey! So I actually replaced Terraforming with another great card early on before Terraforming was officially banned and it’s been doing an amazing job. Mythical Beast Bashilisk gets you so much advantage and boosts consistency even more. He also allows you to turbo out Abyss Dweller consistently and still have your field with 5 negates. That replaces the need for searching Necrovalley, and I usually just search Citadel with Spell Power Mastery. The deck is stronger than ever even without Terraforming. Also Anom and I already recorded a TCG version which should be released any day now. Hope this helps!
This deck always interested me, but the crafting material and gem commitment is huge. I play Pendulum Magicians already so have most of the extra deck. Is there a budget version of main deck I can play with until I can pull/ craft the rest?
There definitely is a budget version! But it is SR heavy rather than UR heavy. Something to remember is that you only need 8 UR’s to have a competitive version of the deck. Those 8 UR’s are: 3 Jackal King, 3 Endymion, 1 Electrumite, and 1 Avramax. And if you already have pen mages built, then you most likely already have the last two so it’s only those 6 UR’s. Rather than the Spellbook Engine, you can put back in Spell Power Grasp. It actually is still a really good card since the hardest thing to do is get your initial counters at the start of your turn. It’s like Bestiary except you can get your third counter by activating another scale. I still use Grasp in real life and it has won me many games. For your draw cards, you can stock up on Into the Void. Upstart Goblin is great but it can be difficult to get the UR for it, and in this build, I only use 2 Void and 1 Desires. A 3rd Void and 2nd Desires would do wonders. And if you still have room in your deck, you can also put in the Toon engine. That’s 3 Toon Table of Contents and one Toon World and if you have it, Magician’s Souls can fill up the deck. I don’t like using the card very much, but Souls is easily attainable by purchasing the DM structure deck for 500 gems. Other alternatives are Magician’s Right Hand (free counters and a counter to Dark Ruler) and Secret Sanctuary of the Spellcasters. Extremely good for stopping Ignitions effects and also preventing Zeus since they can’t attack. Hope this all helps!
@Shadow Spector Thanks this is very helpful! I have Pend Magicians, Spellbooks and played Witchcrafters so have most of the options you recommend. Is there a Pend Magician engine I can throw in? Astrograph, Chronograph, Timegazer? Does that make sense or bricks? 6 URs doesn't sound too bad, is Cerberus not essential? I will start working on this deck next!
I want to say it’s game over though I think there is a replay on here where that is the case and shadow wins. I’ll definitely have him answer that one though
When Exterio is on the field before your first turn, it can be extremely difficult to play through, but there are two outs in the deck. Unfortunately both of these outs rely completely on your opponent’s behavior. The first out is that your opponent has to summon Exterio in either zones two or four and you need Mythical Beast Jackal in your hand. You can summon him and then summon Relinquished Anima to steal Exterio. This is easily stopped with any monster negate though, but it’s an option. The second out is Mythical Bestiary. Since Exterio is infinite spell/trap negates, your opponent will most likely get cocky and negate everything they can. People don’t see Mythical Bestiary too often though so they don’t know of its floating effect. (Even people I duel all the time at my locals forget about Bestiary and they still try to pop my backrow.) If you see Exterio and you have Bestiary and a normal summon in your hand, you can summon your monster and activate Bestiary on it. Your opponent will most likely negate and destroy Bestiary and that’s when you can trigger Bestiary in graveyard to summon any monster from your deck. Exterio can only negate the activations of spells and traps but Bestiary’s effect in graveyard is a spell effect, so neither Naturia Beast or Exterio can negate it. When you summon from the deck, you can summon Endymion with two spell counters to crash into Exterio. Your opponent will not be able to get rid of him since he can’t be targeted or destroyed by card effects (unless they have Droplets set). Then you get to search a normal spell on destruction so even though you gave up your battle phase, a normal summon, and a spell in your hand, you still have a decent shot at winning after that. If your opponent summons Exterio on turn 2, it’s no issue since you’ll already have had your spells activated or you’ll have Jackal King out to negate. But if you’re really worried about Nat Beast and Exterio, I recommend using Dark Ruler. Konami will usually give it to you in your opening hand if you go second.
I use the same deck , since the beginning , and never reached diamond .. platin 1yeah Maybe i wasnt brave enough haha .. nice to see what my deck is able too :)
Honestly, I’m so happy that one of my first deck-themes from 2009 is competitive today. Ever since season 1, the deck could hit the highest rank (of course Drytrons was an auto lose every game -_-). It’s very difficult to use since every play has to be perfect, and not only that. You also have to outthink your opponent going second with what they’ll do and also know every single deck you face inside and out to know what’s the correct negate you choose. Endymions may be powerful and satisfying, but they can be stressful at times.
@@shadowspector3611 but thats, how yu gi oh should be :D . and endymion has the answer to evrything, if its played well that is why endymion my all time favorit :) and i am glad to see , that i can learn still learn from you
Hey, Zachary. I’m not sure if this comment is just to be funny or not, but in case it’s serious, Bystials do absolutely nothing to Endymions. The deck utilizes the graveyard to such a minimum extent that Necrovalley is even main decked is numerous versions of the deck. It’s a reason why the deck can play through Dimension Shifter most times too. Selene is quite literally the only time Endymions use the graveyard. The only scenario where the graveyard would be interacted with throughout the duel would be with Bestiary milling 2, the Charmers summoning from the opponent’s graveyard, Selene reviving a spellcaster that somehow was sent there, and Accesscode Talker banishing links to pop the board. 90% of the time (when I’m not playing Tear), I never have anything in the graveyard so Bystials still do nothing to me. As a matter of fact, in TCG back in the tier 0 format, the opening games were actually much easier because people were main decking Bystials with the idea that they’d summon them by banishing from my graveyard, and then they’d have completely bricked hands because none of their Bystials could trigger. And then they’d side out all of their Bystials for games two and three since they did nothing (and in a best of 1 format, duels are going to be even easier with the opponent bricking on Bystials). The most common time a Bystial was used against me was when they banished my IP Masquerana from graveyard, and even then, once IP is in the graveyard, she’s already gone for the rest of the duel. The only time where Bystials would affect me would be if Agido or Kelbek milled Endymion and Jackal King to the graveyard and then the Bystials banished one of them (which was still uncommon even in the tcg tier 0 format). Even when my cards are milled with Kelbek or Agido, they are typically gone for the duel unless I revive them with Selene, so I’m already used to dealing with what’s left in my deck, and it still doesn’t affect my ability to win as much. So in summary, the release of Bystials will actually make Endymions even stronger since the opponent will have more dead cards in their hands. Hope this answers everything!
@@shadowspector3611mm this is a weird list actually. Most lists use astrograph searched from electrumite overlay into absolute dragon to go into the vortex dragon for an omni negate. That sends endymion to the grave to be revived by selene. It is typically facilitated by magicians souls pitching mighty master from deck and revived by selene as well. It’s a bread and butter combo which uses GY twice Why aren’t you running that combo in the first place? It is very low cost to deck building and lets you get out more negates easily
Beyond negates your scales so you’ll lose all your counters. She also stops your monster effects so you’re extremely vulnerable to hand traps. Endymion’s pendulum summon should be the last action taken in the turn and Beyond forces you to pendulum summon early just to continue your turn, so she often ends your turn prematurely. She’s good in every other pendulum deck besides Endymion. Astrograph is just boring to use. Endymions can do anything they like with how creative the deck is, but Astrograph just turns the deck into Clicking Simulator. I understand it’s powerful but I can pull out just as many negates with my build and actually have fun doing it.
@@shadowspector3611 i've just recently started playing with Endymions (love the archtype btw) and i aswell noticed i dont use beyond as much as i would thought but the situational pop 2 is great, but now i understand your reasoning maybe i will give it a try without astrograph but for now its still hard for me without it
1. On my way building Pendymion, after looking at the decklist, it looks not really expensive. After 3 packs, I got 3 Master Cerberus, 1 Jackal King, 1 Endymion, 1 Selene, 2 Servant, 1 Knowledge, 1 Spell power and 3 copies of Endy's lab and the field spell. I already have the rest of generic staples and pendulum staples, or I can craft it because those cards are still useful in other decks. *But* for Upstart Goblin, I don't really want to craft it, any alternative? . 2. 22 counters and without pendulum summon, really impressive and satisfying to watch. For the misplay, yeah I know milling 5 cards is too good, but just with 5 mill and then they got 2 big monsters with negate, 1 small monsters, and 2 cards in hand for backup. That looks really broken. This slot-milling-machine deck looks auto-pilot and very luck-based than any other decks. . 3. Limited 1 card, yeah I see that Instant Fusion and hard draw field spell a lot. I actually have Instant fusion for my Relinquish package too in extra deck. Relinquish package is good for going 2nd because it can turn 1 spell into 2 breakers (Thousand-eyes + Anima) or protect your combo by summoning Millenium-eyes. But for myself, I can't count how many times I draw this spell, because what I remember, never. Maybe I need dozens of matches again to draw this spell at least once before it is banned. . 4. Anyway, more PEND BEST DECK LET'S GOOOOO!
Hahah. I’ll have to ask shadow a good alt for upstart goblin. Those where some great pulls to get most the cards. And yeah it’s insane how much advantage tear can get. But I’ll ask shadow about the upstart alternative
1. Everywhere I go, everyone is commenting about how expensive the deck is and I’m there like “it’s not that bad. You should see my Omni Hero deck.” You use need a playset of Jackal King and Endymion as well as Electrumite and you’re already 70% there. Also Upstart is excellent and I’d recommend using it over anything else but if you don’t have it, try checking your inventory for any Chicken Games, Triple Tactics Talents, or even Dark World Dealings or Dragged Down to the Graves. Into the Void is at two in my deck but you can also put it up to three. And if you don’t have any of the previously mentioned cards, one of the people in Anom’s server named Dominus utilizes the Toon engine. It essentially does what Upstart Goblin does except the card added is somewhat useless and it is more of a chance to brick. But it still does what Upstart Goblin is supposed to do. 2. 22 counters is so satisfying to see Selene count up with. But also the moment I clicked on Jackal King (I was playing on mobile), I immediately tried to see if I could go back because I know you aren’t supposed to negate it. Legit Agido wouldn’t have done anything to me since I could still go into Accesscode and pop the board without any issues so far. Also this deck looks very luck based indeed but that was Konami’s reasoning when making it. Thinking about how it could whiff in their mills so they’ll give it extra broken effects. The issue is that you can just fill your deck with everything that wants to be milled because even if you draw those cards, they work just as powerfully in the hand. If you want to see a normal version of the “slot-machine” deck, look at Adamancipators. And if you want to see a balanced and nostalgic version, look no further than Flower Cardians. 3. Insta Fusion is insane and actually broken in Endymions as well. You can use it to summon Relinquished and use it as an honorary Called by the Grave. But the most disgusting thing you can do with it is use it to summon Winda and then link Winda and Electrumite into Selene. Then use Selene to summon Winda back and it won’t be destroyed during the End Phase. Insanely broken. 4. *Insert Triff gif here*
@@shadowspector3611 I already finished the deck. Now I still using the Toon packages as an Upstart alternative. . Anyway, why you didn't use Beyond the Pendulum?
Beyond negates your scales so you lose your counters. It also leaves you vulnerable to disruptions like Nibiru. Also you have to choose between Electrumite and Beyond if you want to play around Nibiru and there’s no reason to choose Beyond instead of Electrumite.
Hi, Tramone! So Cerberus is a level 8 monster and the highest scale Endymion goes up to is 8. Pendulum scales can only summon monsters whose level are in between those scales so since the lowest scale is Servant and Reflection as scale 2 and the highest is Endymion and Magister at scale 8, only monsters levels 3 through 7 can be pendulum summoned. The only monsters you can never pendulum summon in this deck are Mythical Beast Jackal and Mythical Beast Cerberus. But don't worry as you can still summon either one using Magister, Reflection, Servant (only for Cerberus), Jackal King and Jackal (monster effect). You can even summon either using Selene as well if you milled them with Bestiary (or your opponent milled them with Agido or Kelbek).
@Shadow Spector Ah I see, thanks for that explanation. If don't mind I'd like your opinion on these two cards for the deck Beyond the Pendulum and Triple Tactics Talent
@@LILTRACUZ514 So Beyond the Pendulum works in any other pendulum deck besides Endymions. She negates your scales which makes them lose counters and she prevents you from using monster effects which leaves you vulnerable to Nibiru or other interruptions. The whole goal of Endymions is to collect as many negates in your hand and extra deck before you pendulum summon but Beyond forces you to pendulum summon early just to continue your turn. She also makes it so that you need to go into her early in order to avoid getting Nibb'ed but when that happens, you're going into her instead of summoning Electrumite, and there is no reason to summon Beyond instead of summon Electrumite. Triple Tactics Talents has been a very strong card but I never used it in Master Duel since it is not guaranteed to be usable. It is always a risk to have it going first because if your opponent has no handtraps, then you are essentially using a 4-card hand which can mean the difference between 1 negate and 6 negates. However with the new Tear format, you are going to lose the coin toss 99% of the time so you essentially want your deck to be a going-second deck. Also Herald of Orange Light, Maxx C, Ash, and Havnis are very common to see now so on the chance that you do go first, your opponent is almost guaranteed to have a handtrap so Triple Tactics is a very good card. I actually just put two copies into my MD deck two days again. I removed the Spellbook engine for it because the Ishizu cards kept milling my Knowledge or Blue Boy which was making my have dead cards in my deck.
@@shadowspector3611 Ah my bad I should've been more specific. Definitely not intending to replace Electrumite with Beyond for combos, was more so asking about it as a situational tech card And I felt that about ishizu mills😭
@@LILTRACUZ514 Yeah, I was livestreaming on Thursday and kept looking at the mills and saying "well, now Secrets is dead in the deck." The bright side about removing the Spellbook engine is that now I no longer have to worry about using up my normal summon on Jackal (though now there isn't a way out of bricking with all pendulums in the hand). And yes, Beyond hurts you a lot, but if you own a copy, you can probably keep her in as a "just in case" kind of deal for late-game when you no longer have Electrumite. Though every time I am in late game, I already have enough resources out of the deck that I wouldn't really need to go into Beyond even if I had her.
So Natura Exterior cannot negate spell or trap card that is already on the field?🧐 As an Endymion player, If I go second and opponent has Natura Exterior summoned, that’s absolutely the end for Endymion. But with Anima, I think there is a slim chance that Endymion can play through Natura Exterior.
Nat Beast and Exterior are cards that are absolutely devastating for Endymion (like Anti-Spell Fragrance). But if your opponent summons either one and you have Bestiary and a normal summon in your hand, you have a chance at outing it. With infinite spell negates, your opponent will shotgun their negate every time without reading, but if you normal summon a monster that can hold counters and activate Bestiary and they negate it, Bestiary will trigger in grave to summon a Jackal King to negate or Endymion to crash. The reason they can’t negate Bestiary’s graveyard effect or any of your scales while they are face up is because they are spell effect activations and not spell card activations (Nat Beast and Exterior can only negate activations). And if you have Magister and Bestiary in the opening hand, you can normal summon Magister and use Bestiary. If your opponent doesn’t negate it, you can try attacking with Magister to get the third counter and if Magister is still face up, you can trigger his effect during your opponent’s turn to summon a negate from your deck for your next turn. It’s very slow, I know, but this at least gives you a fighting chance.
So, this deck cannot afford to run any handtraps or cards that don’t have a guarantee to be used. When I first started using this deck, I tried using Ash Blossom and it bricked the hands majorly to the point where my end board would be just one negate. This deck requires every card to be working with each other. You get a starting hand with Servant, another pendulum, maybe a Citadel, and two hand traps, there is absolutely nothing you’ll be able to do with that. You need each card in your opening hand to work with each other because by the time you’re activating Abductor in your scale, you’ll have enough counters to trigger Servant and by the time you’re putting counters on your field, you can trigger Abductor to search Endymion. It’s all like a closed-system within the deck and if you put a hand trap in the deck that doesn’t help the gas of your turn, it can very well be the end of you. (In fact, with a card as powerful as Secret Village of the Spellcasters, even it didn’t do enough to continue my turn into my normal 6 negates.)
@@thefinalanomaly awesome I’ll be waiting you and Shadow are the best at showing how powerful this deck is I appreciate all of your guys’ hard work fr fr 💯
@@aztek57: Appreciate the kind words! I’m so happy to be able to show people how strong this deck is, especially because it’s been four years since its release and is still rare to see. The TCG vid will come soon (currently gathering pictures and data from irl locals) so stay tuned!
Astrograph makes the deck have the same combo over and over again. With this build, you can design your own combos each time. There are barely any HOPT cards in the deck so Souls would send cards that would normally get you spell counters. You’ll be losing potential counters and drawing into more pendulums usually. Also Souls sends for cost so if he gets negated, you basically lose right there. The Spellbook engine is great. Unfortunately with Tearlaments, Kelbek and Agido will mill some of your Spellbook pieces which makes the other parts dead in the deck. So I removed them for Triple Tactics Talents.
@@werewolfjedi38: it’s not just predictability. One of the things I love about Endymions is that it’s an incredibly creative deck. You see an issue and you (almost) always have a way to a solution. It’s essentially a sandbox deck where you can do whatever you want. With Astrograph though, the deck just because like every other deck. The same recycled combo every single time where now it’s just Clicking Simulator. I prefer the multiple routes where you can know that you got an end board from your own skill.
@shadowspector3611 oh yeah, I'm always trying new engine parts in the core. Magistus, spellbook+souls for digging, invoked shadoll fusion builds. I work with lord vectra, on another channel, we've been laying low with tear, it's just not that fun to deal with.
At this point I think its un questionable. This deck is insane. Season after season hitting Diamond 1 and now given the NEW Tear 0 Meta and still on track for Diamond one.

19:55 For anyone wondering, no. He in fact did not have Accesscode Talker in the deck. I found the decklist after recording so this duelist just didn’t have a way to go for game this turn.
Yeah I actually concidered this as well after the stream I remembered seeing that tear doesn’t use accesscode very often
U should make videos on your channel
Come back after trying the deck 2-3 days ago (I wasn't really confident enough before to play this deck) with "optimum" build. I burn my URs and it is very worth it. It is a very fun deck and it gives different experience than other decks that I have played before. After I understand the basics of the deck, I change the deck a little bit.
1. I add Amorphage Sloth, this is a good and fast go 1st set-up. I don't really like long combos.
2. I switch Secret Village to Necrovalley, Secret Village sometimes hurts me more when I brick. For Necrovalley, this can be a good floodgates and spell counter without hurting my play.
3. Switch Spellbook engine to Magicians' Soul package. Didn't eat my normal summon, free level 1 for Anima, throw any Endymion/Mythical Beast to GY and reborn it with Selene, and change any "dead spell" to draw card. I think it is better because Spellbook needs some specific cards to work, when Magicians' Soul can work alone.
.
I think there are still a lot possibilities and potencies of this deck, and I need to learn more about this deck.
Glad you’re having better experiences with the deck! It definitely gives a unique experience as opposed to the same recycled combo every game with most other decks.
1. Amorphage Sloth looks like the best one to use since it has the level of Jackal King and scale of Abductor, so the deck already is familiar with utilizing something like it.
2. I also removed Secret Village since the spell format is over with. It’s now the graveyard format and I put in Necrovalley.
3a. I also removed the Spellbook engine because I found that the Ishizu cards were milling them from my deck and making the other pieces dead cards. I replaced them with Triple Tactics Talents because of how prevalent Havnis is and also how prevalent Tear-hate and Maxx C are.
3b. Also I never liked Magician’s Souls in Endymions because he has to send spells that you could’ve used to get you counters. Also the deck doesn’t use many HOPT cards besides Mastery and maybe a second Bestiary, so the spells you have typically can always be activated. Lastly, Souls sends for cost so if he’s met with a disruption, you’re essentially going -2 and probably will lose the game.
I hope your able to better master the deck and have tons of fun with how satisfying it can be. Goodluck!
Shadow breaking those boards is hella satisfying, some of those duels I woulda scooped but my man played through it like a boss! Much respect to both you gentlemen and May God bless you!
God bless you too, Dominus! Thank you so much for all the support given on these vids as well as supporting live on stream.
I like seeing those boards pop as well. Something about it is like a calming song to my ears hahahah
@@shadowspector3611 My pleasure brother!
Incredible gameplay, very complex deck but Shadow plays like a boss!
He is indeed a good player
Thank you (both)! Turns can indeed be very stressful and I have to admit that at times, it’s got me pressured to the point of negating Agido in the hand. But the best part about Endymions is that 80% of the time, there’s always a way out of a predicament you’re in that you just need to find.
Yeah Tears aren’t as threatening to us Endymion players as they are to everyone else. Due to how many Endymion players are in Diamond this season. It raised us and heroes to Rogue tier.
Noice! Surprisingly they don’t give my abc deck that big of an issue as well. They take for every in there turn though lol
@@thefinalanomaly Facts, they mill and summon all day on the board lol.
I also have a Hero deck (got to D1 last season, becoming the first time I hit D1 not using Endymions). The biggest upside to using Endymions this format is because of all the graveyard hate. Other decks are using cards like D Shifter and Dimmensional Fissure and they pass on just that so Endymions can decimate their board. Tear players rely on their Ishizu shufflers to be even more disruption but Endymions are unaffected. For Heroes though, Tear can still be very problematic because of those graveyard shufflers. Fortunately Malicious banishes for cost but DPE is not a boss-monster against Tear anymore. They can still Sulliek Vyon. Handtraps are still an issue. And don't forget anti-tear decks use cards that also destroy Heroes because they're anti fusions and anti graveyard. I agree that Heroes are still very strong but I'm not sure how this format is good for Heroes as it is for Endymions.
@@shadowspector3611 I think it’s because of turbo plasma out along with Dark law and have dark angel on there field it’s almost practically a gg. I once did a board with dpe, plasma, and mist all in defense position. Summoned angel on opponent board. Special summon Dark law in draw phase. It was gg for the tear players.
But I do think it isn’t as strong as Endymion. You can play whatever variation of Endymion & do well. My biggest complaint is TCBOO. Anyone running that card (mainly subterror or control deck players) basically beats me every time cause I can’t respond to it with Endymion effect. Which is weird cause it doesn’t say no cards can respond to it.. yet I can’t do just that lol.
@@PridedWaif Unfortunately you can't use Plasma and Dark Angel on the same board because Plasma negates Dark Angel's effect, unless Konami creates a new card that allows Dark Angel to be unaffected by your own card effects. Also I forgot about how Dark Law is the Tear-counter, but I'm more referring to going second since you'll lose every coin toss in Diamond. Of course both Endymions and Heroes can wreck Tear if you go first just by getting 6 negates or committing to a Dark Law play.
And you aren't getting a response window to respond with Endymions? That's strange because TCBOO definitely can be negated. Is your toggle off or are you going against Labrynths where they say "your opponent cannot respond to your trap activations"? There might be some hidden effects for Subterrors as well that make their trap effects spell speed four.
Have you considered adding Amorphage Sloth on this deck? Thank you in advance.
Let me ask shadow
That would be a great card for going first and if you know you will be going first, I’d encourage it as a good tech since it’s so easily searched, summoned, and does not conflict with your scales (if you’re only going to pen summon from your hand). For me, I only like the spell counter pendulums so I wouldn’t run it, but i wouldn’t think other people using it would be a bad option.
Thank you so much for your advice.
Bro? Is everything fine? Haven't seen you update lately
My mom has been having some major health issues. She has had 3 surgeries in the last few months and my father is also going through some stuff. Just have kind of been dealing with some IRL stuff at the moment. Hoping to get back to normal real soon. Thanks fir checking in! I really appreciate that
@@thefinalanomaly I'm sorry to hear that. Hope everything will go well and get better for you bro. Stay strong.
11:40 u knew the other card was agido so popping everything would've been fine
He wasn’t worried about the card in hand. He wanted to be able to negate the monster he sent to grave so that the effect wasn’t chain blocked so that the opponent wouldn’t send to grave from deck. If that’s what o understood I think
I see what you mean. Rhinoheart wouldn’t be able to activate since the card in his hand was not a Tearlament. I think in the moment, I was terrified of the chain blocking and wanted to make sure I made the right plays, so I played safe. And in explaining the replays, I was talking about my mindset. It is still important to keep in mind that you should play around the chain blocking, but in this specific scenario, I could’ve popped everything.
SO..... if a jackal that used his negation leaves the field, and then you summon it again, you can use again that negation the same turn??? WTF
Il have shadow answer this one
That is correct. In fact with the new addition of Mythical Beast Bashilisk, I now use Jackal’s effect three times in one turn regularly. It’s even possible to use his effect four times. One time is to normal summon him and remove three to summon Jackal King. Then use (another).Jackal King to pop himself and summon back Jackal. Use Jackal again to remove three and summon Bashilisk. Then use Magister to remove three and summon himself out and Jackal again. Use Jackal a third time to remove three and summon Jackal King. Then you can use Bashilisk to remove three and add Jackal back to your hand. Summon Selene to refill your board with counters and use her effect to remove 3 and summon Jackal. Then use Jackal for a fourth time to remove 3 and summon Garuda. Then you can go into Abyss Dweller.
There you go: Mythical Beast Jackal 4 times in a turn and is not only possible, but practical as well.
But also Jackal King can use its effect multiple times as long as it leaves the field and comes back. The regular plays of Selene allows me to reuse my negates. So if I use Jackal King’s negate and bounce him back with an Endymion negate, I can use Selene to remove three to summon back Jackal King for another negate.
On my rank up game to get into M5, I summoned two jackal kings out and my opponent triggers Kelbek. I negated and he used his graveyard effect so I negated again. Then I went into Electrumite and pendulum summoned back my two jackal kings. I used Bestiary to mill two and my opponent tried to use two Bystials to banish what I milled. I then triggered both Jackal Kings again to negate and leave them with only two cards in hand. And I still ended my board with 6 negates (2 jackal kings, Selene, Magister summoning Endymion from extra deck, and Endymion summoned from pen scale to pop).
Great showcase of endymion vs tear! I would like to see shadow play vs exosister cuz, as an endymion player myself, I am having some difficulties vs that singular deck and their banish shanenigans.
I absolutely hate Exosisters too. They’re incredibly difficult with Endymion. I did have a replay where I beat Exosisters when I went second but I couldn’t save it because my replay list was packed. I figured people would be more interested in seeing me go against Tear instead. But I do stream the deck so you’ll most likely see how I face off against the deck live.
what do you suggest to be used instead of terraforming, since it’s banned now?
will you release a decklist for TCG?
Yea. Chicken game is the card off the top of my head. Reason being I could draw one and it would be a field spell to pop with ancient fairy dragon. Still need to look though. I haven’t had a chance to make content do to mother being sick but I’ll make a comeback real soon
@@thefinalanomaly thanks man! I hope your mom gets better soon!
@@bogdantopalovic7546 appreciate it! I actually answered this thinking it was my other deck hahah. I’m actually going to have shadow answer this one. I’m sure he already has replaced it with a great card.
@@thefinalanomaly Lmao no worries, thanks!! Looking forward to his suggestion :D
@@bogdantopalovic7546: Hey! So I actually replaced Terraforming with another great card early on before Terraforming was officially banned and it’s been doing an amazing job. Mythical Beast Bashilisk gets you so much advantage and boosts consistency even more. He also allows you to turbo out Abyss Dweller consistently and still have your field with 5 negates. That replaces the need for searching Necrovalley, and I usually just search Citadel with Spell Power Mastery. The deck is stronger than ever even without Terraforming.
Also Anom and I already recorded a TCG version which should be released any day now. Hope this helps!
This deck always interested me, but the crafting material and gem commitment is huge.
I play Pendulum Magicians already so have most of the extra deck. Is there a budget version of main deck I can play with until I can pull/ craft the rest?
Let me have shadow answer this one but sure there is
There definitely is a budget version! But it is SR heavy rather than UR heavy. Something to remember is that you only need 8 UR’s to have a competitive version of the deck. Those 8 UR’s are: 3 Jackal King, 3 Endymion, 1 Electrumite, and 1 Avramax. And if you already have pen mages built, then you most likely already have the last two so it’s only those 6 UR’s.
Rather than the Spellbook Engine, you can put back in Spell Power Grasp. It actually is still a really good card since the hardest thing to do is get your initial counters at the start of your turn. It’s like Bestiary except you can get your third counter by activating another scale. I still use Grasp in real life and it has won me many games.
For your draw cards, you can stock up on Into the Void. Upstart Goblin is great but it can be difficult to get the UR for it, and in this build, I only use 2 Void and 1 Desires. A 3rd Void and 2nd Desires would do wonders. And if you still have room in your deck, you can also put in the Toon engine. That’s 3 Toon Table of Contents and one Toon World and if you have it, Magician’s Souls can fill up the deck. I don’t like using the card very much, but Souls is easily attainable by purchasing the DM structure deck for 500 gems.
Other alternatives are Magician’s Right Hand (free counters and a counter to Dark Ruler) and Secret Sanctuary of the Spellcasters. Extremely good for stopping Ignitions effects and also preventing Zeus since they can’t attack.
Hope this all helps!
@Shadow Spector Thanks this is very helpful! I have Pend Magicians, Spellbooks and played Witchcrafters so have most of the options you recommend. Is there a Pend Magician engine I can throw in?
Astrograph, Chronograph, Timegazer? Does that make sense or bricks?
6 URs doesn't sound too bad, is Cerberus not essential?
I will start working on this deck next!
Is it possible for Endymions to play through naturia exterio or is that game over?
I want to say it’s game over though I think there is a replay on here where that is the case and shadow wins. I’ll definitely have him answer that one though
When Exterio is on the field before your first turn, it can be extremely difficult to play through, but there are two outs in the deck. Unfortunately both of these outs rely completely on your opponent’s behavior.
The first out is that your opponent has to summon Exterio in either zones two or four and you need Mythical Beast Jackal in your hand. You can summon him and then summon Relinquished Anima to steal Exterio. This is easily stopped with any monster negate though, but it’s an option.
The second out is Mythical Bestiary. Since Exterio is infinite spell/trap negates, your opponent will most likely get cocky and negate everything they can. People don’t see Mythical Bestiary too often though so they don’t know of its floating effect. (Even people I duel all the time at my locals forget about Bestiary and they still try to pop my backrow.) If you see Exterio and you have Bestiary and a normal summon in your hand, you can summon your monster and activate Bestiary on it. Your opponent will most likely negate and destroy Bestiary and that’s when you can trigger Bestiary in graveyard to summon any monster from your deck. Exterio can only negate the activations of spells and traps but Bestiary’s effect in graveyard is a spell effect, so neither Naturia Beast or Exterio can negate it. When you summon from the deck, you can summon Endymion with two spell counters to crash into Exterio. Your opponent will not be able to get rid of him since he can’t be targeted or destroyed by card effects (unless they have Droplets set). Then you get to search a normal spell on destruction so even though you gave up your battle phase, a normal summon, and a spell in your hand, you still have a decent shot at winning after that.
If your opponent summons Exterio on turn 2, it’s no issue since you’ll already have had your spells activated or you’ll have Jackal King out to negate. But if you’re really worried about Nat Beast and Exterio, I recommend using Dark Ruler. Konami will usually give it to you in your opening hand if you go second.
@@shadowspector3611 I'll definitely need to slot that anima into my extra deck. Thanks for the tips
@@GinLuna: no problem and good luck! It’s going to be difficult with Nat Beast and then Kashtira scale blockers in the future.
I use the same deck , since the beginning , and never reached diamond .. platin 1yeah
Maybe i wasnt brave enough haha .. nice to see what my deck is able too :)
Yeah the deck is very powerful. It has taken first place in my tournaments I think 3 times and has won a few times at locals
Honestly, I’m so happy that one of my first deck-themes from 2009 is competitive today. Ever since season 1, the deck could hit the highest rank (of course Drytrons was an auto lose every game -_-). It’s very difficult to use since every play has to be perfect, and not only that. You also have to outthink your opponent going second with what they’ll do and also know every single deck you face inside and out to know what’s the correct negate you choose. Endymions may be powerful and satisfying, but they can be stressful at times.
@@shadowspector3611 but thats, how yu gi oh should be :D . and endymion has the answer to evrything, if its played well
that is why endymion my all time favorit :)
and i am glad to see , that i can learn still learn from you
Bystials are gonna kill this deck though right? They are coming now to master duel and they are gonna stop the selene for endymion plays
Endymion ate forever hahah. Let me actually have shadow answer this one
Hey, Zachary. I’m not sure if this comment is just to be funny or not, but in case it’s serious, Bystials do absolutely nothing to Endymions. The deck utilizes the graveyard to such a minimum extent that Necrovalley is even main decked is numerous versions of the deck. It’s a reason why the deck can play through Dimension Shifter most times too.
Selene is quite literally the only time Endymions use the graveyard. The only scenario where the graveyard would be interacted with throughout the duel would be with Bestiary milling 2, the Charmers summoning from the opponent’s graveyard, Selene reviving a spellcaster that somehow was sent there, and Accesscode Talker banishing links to pop the board. 90% of the time (when I’m not playing Tear), I never have anything in the graveyard so Bystials still do nothing to me. As a matter of fact, in TCG back in the tier 0 format, the opening games were actually much easier because people were main decking Bystials with the idea that they’d summon them by banishing from my graveyard, and then they’d have completely bricked hands because none of their Bystials could trigger. And then they’d side out all of their Bystials for games two and three since they did nothing (and in a best of 1 format, duels are going to be even easier with the opponent bricking on Bystials). The most common time a Bystial was used against me was when they banished my IP Masquerana from graveyard, and even then, once IP is in the graveyard, she’s already gone for the rest of the duel.
The only time where Bystials would affect me would be if Agido or Kelbek milled Endymion and Jackal King to the graveyard and then the Bystials banished one of them (which was still uncommon even in the tcg tier 0 format). Even when my cards are milled with Kelbek or Agido, they are typically gone for the duel unless I revive them with Selene, so I’m already used to dealing with what’s left in my deck, and it still doesn’t affect my ability to win as much.
So in summary, the release of Bystials will actually make Endymions even stronger since the opponent will have more dead cards in their hands. Hope this answers everything!
@@shadowspector3611mm this is a weird list actually. Most lists use astrograph searched from electrumite overlay into absolute dragon to go into the vortex dragon for an omni negate. That sends endymion to the grave to be revived by selene. It is typically facilitated by magicians souls pitching mighty master from deck and revived by selene as well. It’s a bread and butter combo which uses GY twice
Why aren’t you running that combo in the first place? It is very low cost to deck building and lets you get out more negates easily
why doesnt shadow use "beyond the pendulum" or astrograph in his deck?
I’ll let him respond to this one
Beyond negates your scales so you’ll lose all your counters. She also stops your monster effects so you’re extremely vulnerable to hand traps. Endymion’s pendulum summon should be the last action taken in the turn and Beyond forces you to pendulum summon early just to continue your turn, so she often ends your turn prematurely. She’s good in every other pendulum deck besides Endymion.
Astrograph is just boring to use. Endymions can do anything they like with how creative the deck is, but Astrograph just turns the deck into Clicking Simulator. I understand it’s powerful but I can pull out just as many negates with my build and actually have fun doing it.
@@shadowspector3611 i've just recently started playing with Endymions (love the archtype btw) and i aswell noticed i dont use beyond as much as i would thought but the situational pop 2 is great, but now i understand your reasoning maybe i will give it a try without astrograph but for now its still hard for me without it
Yes. TCG list please.
I actually have it done, just need to edit it
Pend best deck ,baby lets gooo
1. On my way building Pendymion, after looking at the decklist, it looks not really expensive. After 3 packs, I got 3 Master Cerberus, 1 Jackal King, 1 Endymion, 1 Selene, 2 Servant, 1 Knowledge, 1 Spell power and 3 copies of Endy's lab and the field spell. I already have the rest of generic staples and pendulum staples, or I can craft it because those cards are still useful in other decks. *But* for Upstart Goblin, I don't really want to craft it, any alternative?
.
2. 22 counters and without pendulum summon, really impressive and satisfying to watch. For the misplay, yeah I know milling 5 cards is too good, but just with 5 mill and then they got 2 big monsters with negate, 1 small monsters, and 2 cards in hand for backup. That looks really broken. This slot-milling-machine deck looks auto-pilot and very luck-based than any other decks.
.
3. Limited 1 card, yeah I see that Instant Fusion and hard draw field spell a lot. I actually have Instant fusion for my Relinquish package too in extra deck. Relinquish package is good for going 2nd because it can turn 1 spell into 2 breakers (Thousand-eyes + Anima) or protect your combo by summoning Millenium-eyes. But for myself, I can't count how many times I draw this spell, because what I remember, never. Maybe I need dozens of matches again to draw this spell at least once before it is banned.
.
4. Anyway, more PEND BEST DECK LET'S GOOOOO!
Hahah. I’ll have to ask shadow a good alt for upstart goblin. Those where some great pulls to get most the cards. And yeah it’s insane how much advantage tear can get. But I’ll ask shadow about the upstart alternative
1. Everywhere I go, everyone is commenting about how expensive the deck is and I’m there like “it’s not that bad. You should see my Omni Hero deck.” You use need a playset of Jackal King and Endymion as well as Electrumite and you’re already 70% there. Also Upstart is excellent and I’d recommend using it over anything else but if you don’t have it, try checking your inventory for any Chicken Games, Triple Tactics Talents, or even Dark World Dealings or Dragged Down to the Graves. Into the Void is at two in my deck but you can also put it up to three. And if you don’t have any of the previously mentioned cards, one of the people in Anom’s server named Dominus utilizes the Toon engine. It essentially does what Upstart Goblin does except the card added is somewhat useless and it is more of a chance to brick. But it still does what Upstart Goblin is supposed to do.
2. 22 counters is so satisfying to see Selene count up with. But also the moment I clicked on Jackal King (I was playing on mobile), I immediately tried to see if I could go back because I know you aren’t supposed to negate it. Legit Agido wouldn’t have done anything to me since I could still go into Accesscode and pop the board without any issues so far. Also this deck looks very luck based indeed but that was Konami’s reasoning when making it. Thinking about how it could whiff in their mills so they’ll give it extra broken effects. The issue is that you can just fill your deck with everything that wants to be milled because even if you draw those cards, they work just as powerfully in the hand. If you want to see a normal version of the “slot-machine” deck, look at Adamancipators. And if you want to see a balanced and nostalgic version, look no further than Flower Cardians.
3. Insta Fusion is insane and actually broken in Endymions as well. You can use it to summon Relinquished and use it as an honorary Called by the Grave. But the most disgusting thing you can do with it is use it to summon Winda and then link Winda and Electrumite into Selene. Then use Selene to summon Winda back and it won’t be destroyed during the End Phase. Insanely broken.
4. *Insert Triff gif here*
@@shadowspector3611 I already finished the deck. Now I still using the Toon packages as an Upstart alternative.
.
Anyway, why you didn't use Beyond the Pendulum?
Does this deck want to go first or second
@@anthonyamato8019 Endymion always first
No beyond the pendulum?
I’ll have shadow answer that one
Beyond negates your scales so you lose your counters. It also leaves you vulnerable to disruptions like Nibiru. Also you have to choose between Electrumite and Beyond if you want to play around Nibiru and there’s no reason to choose Beyond instead of Electrumite.
Hey Shadow, I've never understood. Why cant Cerberus be pendulum summoned?
Hi, Tramone! So Cerberus is a level 8 monster and the highest scale Endymion goes up to is 8. Pendulum scales can only summon monsters whose level are in between those scales so since the lowest scale is Servant and Reflection as scale 2 and the highest is Endymion and Magister at scale 8, only monsters levels 3 through 7 can be pendulum summoned. The only monsters you can never pendulum summon in this deck are Mythical Beast Jackal and Mythical Beast Cerberus. But don't worry as you can still summon either one using Magister, Reflection, Servant (only for Cerberus), Jackal King and Jackal (monster effect). You can even summon either using Selene as well if you milled them with Bestiary (or your opponent milled them with Agido or Kelbek).
@Shadow Spector Ah I see, thanks for that explanation. If don't mind I'd like your opinion on these two cards for the deck
Beyond the Pendulum and Triple Tactics Talent
@@LILTRACUZ514 So Beyond the Pendulum works in any other pendulum deck besides Endymions. She negates your scales which makes them lose counters and she prevents you from using monster effects which leaves you vulnerable to Nibiru or other interruptions. The whole goal of Endymions is to collect as many negates in your hand and extra deck before you pendulum summon but Beyond forces you to pendulum summon early just to continue your turn. She also makes it so that you need to go into her early in order to avoid getting Nibb'ed but when that happens, you're going into her instead of summoning Electrumite, and there is no reason to summon Beyond instead of summon Electrumite.
Triple Tactics Talents has been a very strong card but I never used it in Master Duel since it is not guaranteed to be usable. It is always a risk to have it going first because if your opponent has no handtraps, then you are essentially using a 4-card hand which can mean the difference between 1 negate and 6 negates. However with the new Tear format, you are going to lose the coin toss 99% of the time so you essentially want your deck to be a going-second deck. Also Herald of Orange Light, Maxx C, Ash, and Havnis are very common to see now so on the chance that you do go first, your opponent is almost guaranteed to have a handtrap so Triple Tactics is a very good card. I actually just put two copies into my MD deck two days again. I removed the Spellbook engine for it because the Ishizu cards kept milling my Knowledge or Blue Boy which was making my have dead cards in my deck.
@@shadowspector3611 Ah my bad I should've been more specific. Definitely not intending to replace Electrumite with Beyond for combos, was more so asking about it as a situational tech card
And I felt that about ishizu mills😭
@@LILTRACUZ514 Yeah, I was livestreaming on Thursday and kept looking at the mills and saying "well, now Secrets is dead in the deck." The bright side about removing the Spellbook engine is that now I no longer have to worry about using up my normal summon on Jackal (though now there isn't a way out of bricking with all pendulums in the hand).
And yes, Beyond hurts you a lot, but if you own a copy, you can probably keep her in as a "just in case" kind of deal for late-game when you no longer have Electrumite. Though every time I am in late game, I already have enough resources out of the deck that I wouldn't really need to go into Beyond even if I had her.
Just insanity

Let's goo shadow 😅
Thank you! Your support means everything ^_^
So Natura Exterior cannot negate spell or trap card that is already on the field?🧐 As an Endymion player, If I go second and opponent has Natura Exterior summoned, that’s absolutely the end for Endymion. But with Anima, I think there is a slim chance that Endymion can play through Natura Exterior.
Yeah is surprising how good that link one can be. Usually I think Natura Exteriro is an auto lose but I guess I was proven wrong lol
Nat Beast and Exterior are cards that are absolutely devastating for Endymion (like Anti-Spell Fragrance). But if your opponent summons either one and you have Bestiary and a normal summon in your hand, you have a chance at outing it. With infinite spell negates, your opponent will shotgun their negate every time without reading, but if you normal summon a monster that can hold counters and activate Bestiary and they negate it, Bestiary will trigger in grave to summon a Jackal King to negate or Endymion to crash. The reason they can’t negate Bestiary’s graveyard effect or any of your scales while they are face up is because they are spell effect activations and not spell card activations (Nat Beast and Exterior can only negate activations). And if you have Magister and Bestiary in the opening hand, you can normal summon Magister and use Bestiary. If your opponent doesn’t negate it, you can try attacking with Magister to get the third counter and if Magister is still face up, you can trigger his effect during your opponent’s turn to summon a negate from your deck for your next turn. It’s very slow, I know, but this at least gives you a fighting chance.
So you run no max c or ash ?
He does not. I can have him explain the reason behind it
So, this deck cannot afford to run any handtraps or cards that don’t have a guarantee to be used. When I first started using this deck, I tried using Ash Blossom and it bricked the hands majorly to the point where my end board would be just one negate. This deck requires every card to be working with each other. You get a starting hand with Servant, another pendulum, maybe a Citadel, and two hand traps, there is absolutely nothing you’ll be able to do with that. You need each card in your opening hand to work with each other because by the time you’re activating Abductor in your scale, you’ll have enough counters to trigger Servant and by the time you’re putting counters on your field, you can trigger Abductor to search Endymion. It’s all like a closed-system within the deck and if you put a hand trap in the deck that doesn’t help the gas of your turn, it can very well be the end of you. (In fact, with a card as powerful as Secret Village of the Spellcasters, even it didn’t do enough to continue my turn into my normal 6 negates.)
i am only adding 1 diablosis it was so fun 🤣 endy really underated

@@shadowspector3611 i just drop a myghty master, is this a sign ?
Have you tried astrograph, magician's souls, or an expanded spellbook package?
I’ll have shadow answer this one
Astrograph makes the deck have the same combo over and over again. With this build, you can design your own combos each time.
There are barely any HOPT cards in the deck so Souls would send cards that would normally get you spell counters. You’ll be losing potential counters and drawing into more pendulums usually. Also Souls sends for cost so if he gets negated, you basically lose right there.
The Spellbook engine is great. Unfortunately with Tearlaments, Kelbek and Agido will mill some of your Spellbook pieces which makes the other parts dead in the deck. So I removed them for Triple Tactics Talents.
@shadowspector3611 I get that. A astrograph does make the deck predictable. I just figured the power output was worth the trouble.
@@werewolfjedi38: it’s not just predictability. One of the things I love about Endymions is that it’s an incredibly creative deck. You see an issue and you (almost) always have a way to a solution. It’s essentially a sandbox deck where you can do whatever you want. With Astrograph though, the deck just because like every other deck. The same recycled combo every single time where now it’s just Clicking Simulator. I prefer the multiple routes where you can know that you got an end board from your own skill.
@shadowspector3611 oh yeah, I'm always trying new engine parts in the core. Magistus, spellbook+souls for digging, invoked shadoll fusion builds.
I work with lord vectra, on another channel, we've been laying low with tear, it's just not that fun to deal with.
