Its a strat that you use to annoy the opponent and cheese game 1. Then you get stomped post side board and when your opponent knows what you are doing. Similar thing with Mine. Except that you go the dentist after game 1, since the opponent likely just knocked your teeth out.
I just played against a crooked cook deck yesterday and they just sat it in defense mode and the only option for me was to surrender or deck out because I had nothing to counter it
@@zeeflex Counter options are limited, Kaijus, piercing damage, or a Lost World deck. Best of one formats will let cheese decks get more wins than they should.
The thing about Crooked Cook is, when you use Astral Kuriboh or Right Hand Shark to Xyz summon it, it becomes battle immune due to those monsters effects. So on top of its effect of being unaffected by card effects, the only out is to Kaiju it. The person who plays it usually runs an alternate win condition on top of it like Final Countdown/ Exodia etc
Jesus dave, because of your rhongo bongo insert of the ievvan polkka drum remix, I now have been having that on blast for like 30 minutes and can't get it out of my head anymore xD
Empty Jar is hilarious. I'm sick of every deck killing you in 1 turn or setting up a million negates. I want to see chaos unfold. I want to lose my mind against exodia bamboo sword. It is chaos, beautiful.
I’m defense of some alternate win conditions, cards like Flying Elephant are way too specific that you’ll never get them off without actually outplaying your opponent strategically and cards like Vennomenaga and Number iC1000 are so difficult to get out that the act of summoning them is more the win condition (read, fun condition) than actually winning.
I'm working on a deck that uses Angel of Mischief and XYZ import and I'm looking forward to bringing it to locals because I wanna see how well Mischief can preform without Gossip Shadow and Number 69
I really wish that Phantasm Spirals got a multi attacking equip because then the alternate win con might actually be doable. Still relies on your opponent controlling 3 effect monsters, which means you can't even run over tokens with this damn thing
Counterpoint: the annoying strats of Master Duel: 1) Surrender just as your opponent declares a big enough attack that they'd get the extra points for massive damage. But you denied 'em. 2) Auto-win from issues with server communication. Not a lot you can do to control it, beyond doubling down when the internet's spotty. But I know I'm in the double digits of wins that way....
@@maxwortel8986 that's fair - I've certainly been tempted to showboat. But I try not to, and my exception is if it's quick and I get to finish with an unusual boss. On the winning side, a finale with Cyberdark End Dragon is different from another Accesscode BS. BUT... the 3k damage bonus is a thing.
Cook Stall uses level 4s that make the XYZ they’re used as material for immune to battle destruction, so the only way your opponent can win is via piercing or kaiju’ing over it
I played against Crooked Cook *once* in Master Duel and it was awful. I managed to win only because I was playing Red Dragon Resonator and I was running Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend and I was able to blow up my own Resonators and burn my opponent to death very, very slowly.
Luckily for me, the two times I met Crooked Cook stall were in my favor. Once with a gimmicky direct attacker stall deck and once with Aromages (one of their monsters gives them piercing).
The moral is that everyone playing combo doesn't see 6+ negates as "solitaire" and argues against floodgates, and everyone playing control sees floodgates as a literal necessity to play the game and don't regret being the douchebag
underrated comment. i just want to play normal back and forth yugioh like the old days but everyone sweaty always summon 6 omni negates with 10 mins combo. i'm so done with negate meta so i decide to throw 3 skill drains in my every deck and join the dark side. i love the moment when i flip skill drain with my dogshit hand and opponents instant scoop. the only regret is i have faith in humanity and didn't throw skill drains in my deck sooner. ps. my said decks also get affected by skill drain but i know my opponent suffer more than me so i enjoy their struggles. also at least i know what is coming so i can prepare counter measure to my own skill drains.

To be fair to Buster Whelp, outside of Cyberdarks, not many decks can abuse it since Union Carrier got banned. And Crooked Cook is hated because of a monster called Astral Kuriboh that makes it unable to be killed in battle when you xyz summon Cook using it as xyz material so you can just slowly draw through your deck until you hit Exodia. The deck dies to burn, pierce, and getting Kaiju'd, but for decks that don't have those kinds of cards, it's next to impossible to beat.
Crooked cook is part of an exodia strategy where you stall because he can't be destroyed. It's literally an exodia deck with no draw power. And it wins
its mostly in strong in master duel where we play Best of 1, but i usualy play underworld goddes and opponent with that deck gives like 30 turns to set up, its not hard to OTK a player after cook gets used as material for goddes. or just maindeck kaijus
Number 59 degeneracy doesnt come from the backrow (though it is like throwing gas to fire), the integral part is using a monster that grants him the ability of not being destroyed battle as material. With that you sit on an indestructible mini towers and proceed to secondary annoying strategy (stun, helmet, final countdown, etc)
Number 2 is what both you and I can most definitely agree on. While I haven’t come across a Mine Player myself (probably because I haven’t been to a local tournament yet), I’m taking into account the duelists that have gone against this strategy.
Story time: Back in 2020, I brought a casual exodia deck to locals. Rather than attempting to stall or ftk, this deck revolved around "Exodia Incarnate" and his attack gain effect. The deck wasn't incredibly strong, but it was tons of fun. During round 1, I get paired up against a Sky Striker player named Louie, who had never played against Exodia in his life. We have a great interactive match that goes down to the wire for all 3 games. Unlike most players, Louie was all smiles after his first encounter with Exodia. 2 years later, locals reopened after the pandemic. Louie gets paired up against a new guy named Troy, who's playing Exodia. Unfortunately, Troy was playing a mystic mine/dragon ftk hybrid. Louie was in absolute shock that deck he remembered as fun was in fact, completely degenerate. Since then, Louie has always sided in 4-7 slots of backrow hate, just in case.
One I personally run in Master Duel is Generaiders Frodi and Harr. Harr's an omninegate and Frodi is a card that can destroy a card the moment you summon it if I so choose OR wait for a full field, then basically remove all the monsters. With boss stage it basically gives me a flooded field of tokens after I pop on one of my boss monster after the opponent draws, and then then I can basically say, "You can't play anything." Harr is a hard once per turn plus the opponent gains card advantage.
In master duel my deck can bring out Rhongo, but i stopped using it a few weeks ago because the card is bullshit and i don't want to feed into cancer like that. It needs to go
Dave the thing with crooked cook is that you use it with astral koriboh in defense mode and you basically have an invincible monster that’s only weakness is either kaiju or piercing battle damage
The part that makes crooked cook bad is when it's made with right-hand shark, since that makes it indestructible too. Then you just put him in defence and the only way over it is with a kaiju. In a format like MD where there's no siding, not having piercing or a kaiju just means you lose while they deck you out.
the problem with crooked its when it used with used with 2 specificed cards that are right and left hands for XYZ lvl 4 monsters imortality destruction by battle or efetct
Summon cook with right hand shark or astral kuriboh and in addition to his effect protection he also gains protection from battle meaning if you summon cook this way in defense position the only way your opponent can beat your stall is to either kaiju burn or use an effect that let's them attack directly
The thing with cook is that they do him with right hand shark, which makes him indestructible by battle on top of everything else. The only out is a Kaiju at that point, and not everyone plays a Kaiju
@@CorinofArchenland I'm not so knowledgeable about current TCG (Master duel returnee) but I don't think many current meta decks run piercing damage/burn either. So the cook is still a pain
One of my favorite Decks was an Exodia Solid Deck in Duel Links, where I was searching for Exodia pieces with Legion the Fiend Jester and Blue Dragon Summoner.
Cook Stall has you summon Crooked Cook using Right Hand Shark as material, making it indestructible by battle. Then you just use it to stall out for Exodia or Final Countdown
You bull shark summon right shark right shark from deck right shark makes it so battle damage can't kill it. Crooked cook in now a card that you xyz summon in defense mode and is immune to all effects and can block infinite creatures without dying. The only work arounds are Kaiju and Piercing/direct damage. The deck never plays another card while cook is out and just draw, discards, go until exodia.
You actually came close to playing against Cook Exodia in Master Duel during one of your older streams a month or two ago. When you had a room open for viewers to duel in. I ended up facing against it and won via Burn Damage. Ironically I was running a back row heavy Red-Eyes Control deck. With all of the cards required for the Inferno Fire Blast FTK. So it was basically two degenerate decks going at it. XD
In regards to Number 86 is there a way to either put more materials on it every turn or fulfil the requirement of removing the material you need to at the end of your opponent's turn but remove it from somewhere else?
Okay, so I play Exodia but I like to play the bad version I dub "Battle Exodia." Basically using a combination of the Fruit Magician Girls, Exodia Obliterate and Treasure Panda to hopefully gain control of the match, put most of the pieces in the grave and win with Exodia Incarnate. Would people still hate me just cuz it has the chance to win by default, even though that's not the game plan?
I actually play Crooked Cook Exodia. I’m sure lots of people have pointed this out already, but if you use a card like Right Hand Shark, Left Hand Shark, or Astral Kuriboh as material, it makes it so Crooked Cook can’t be destroyed by battle or card effects. So if you control no cards, you summon Crooked Cook in Defense using one of those cards as material, and then you get a Crooked Cook that’s uneffected by your opponent’s card effects and can’t be destroyed by battle. So the only way around it is Kaiju-esque monsters, burn damage, or piercing damage. Most of the time, your opponent can’t out it. But by golly, they’ll fry. “What if I non-target?” Nope! Uneffected by your opponent’s card effects. “What if I banish it?” Nope! Uneffected by your opponent’s card effects. “What if I summon a token to your field? Then you have cards! Haha!” Nope! Quick effect, destroy that token, give my Cook 300 ATK (not that that matters), and now…uneffected by opponent’s card effects. “What about Skill Drain? Gotcha! Now your effect is negated! Hahahahahaha!” Um…U-N-E-F-F-C-T-E-D It just boils down to a stupid card that degenerate decks can get over, but most meta decks can’t. And I know what you’re thinking, “Well, that’s annoying, but if I deal with it, it’s done.” Nah bro…it’s at 3. And Pi Reis Map makes sure you can get to something that can summon it. It’s stupid. It’s real stupid.
I was playing in the traps & monsters only event in Master duel with a loaner deck (because they weren't horrible to use), I got crooked cook stalled & they exodia'ed me, I don't know or remember how I couldn't attack over Crooked cooks' 200 defence, but I couldn't, like the game showed the blue barrier that appears when you attack & you couldn't destroy the card. I reported the person & blocked them because I was so annoyed at that
You couldn't destroy them because cook players summon him with either astral Caribou or right hand shark. Both Monsters make him immune to battle destruction
Crooked Cook with Right-Hand Shark is the annoying part of #1 there. Can't destroy it in battle or do anything to it. At the same time, however, it's super easy to tech against: run 1 copy of Pentestag and bring on the Piercing!
7:00 I just use Buster because of how many blue-eyes decks were going around in duel links. Granted master duel and the tcg are pretty different to duel links so I don't use it as much in master duel.
I met alot of players that can summon 3 monsters in the first round and they all heavy hitters I remember one was like 6000 hit points it was unbelievable as an old player who been having a hard time getting a good deck it still isn't enough because it takes Time to develop my cards plus they got this spider or harpies that can remove all monsters off field leaving me in a unplayable position so I just surrender most games because its unfair they prevent me from playing in rookie and bronze
Honestly I played against a Drytron Herald Deck on master duel this week and they Negated me 7 times on turn 1. I was playing Zombie Grass Eldlitch and every card in my hand was a starter.
I actually had two FUN losses against Exodia. 1) The opponent was playing some weird Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon engine. I forget how it worked, but it used a Blue-Eyes card to get the Toon, then mainly ran Toon support to draw everything. I just imagined Seto Kaiba learning about a Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon/Exodia hybrid, and how infuriated he'd be. 2) Maxx 'C' challenge. Actually just saw a YT video of this one.
Deep Draw or Dragon Draw Exodia. It uses cards like Toon Table of Contents, Cards of Consinance, White Stone of Legend and Trade-In to draw through the entire deck.
I disagree with his assessment. A turn 1 with 5+ Omni negates literally is a negate per card. That means you are basically playing without a hand. Savage alone can have easily 4 counters, meaning 4 negates.
Astral koribo as material for cook makes him in destructible ... You leave him as the only monster and wait till you draw exodia... Soo yeah monster than can't be removed or destroyed and you wait .. Kaijus is the only and I do mean only way to remove him from the feild ...
I feel like alternate win conditions are cool when they are a challenge to achieve, like Destiny Board or F.A.’s or even Horakthy (I have no idea how to spell it), but Exodia is just boring and dull to fight against.
Good thing we have freaking Lightning Storm and Raigeki at 3 to literally obliterate the barrier statue stuffs. Ah yes, maybe side in some Dark Holes and Lightning Vortexes in just in case.
7:00 I think the reason people hate Buster Lock is because “Oh… Dragons have so much support. It’s the best type in the game. Dragons are OP and everyone wants to be a dragon.” And then Buster over here is like “No.”
I once had an Op that summoned a 4 Mat Appollusa and put POWER OF THE GAURDIAN on it. So I forced out 2 negates, the second negate being Psi-reflector. (from the deck with Emergency Teleport) I had nothing else to do except...Tribute Psi-Reflector for Vanity's Fiend and proceed to beat the shit out of Apollousa for several turns. Finally I draw Lyla, Lightsworn Sorceress to pop the equip spell. The game was all mine after that
One time in Master Duel, I got Rhongo'd, I had Maxx "C", AND I happened to be playing Tindangles! During his combo, he negated an effect that he didn't need to with the Gossip Shadow, so it was only 4 materials. I then proceeded to combo on him with Tindangles a couple turns later, and OTK him with Stairs of Mail to flip all my dudes up, Dholes, Jhrelth and Angel to get the dudes, and Dholes, Gergonne's End and Nagel's Protection for the damage. If you want to see the replay, the ID is 233-354-736 and the replay is against Wanderer.
Part of me wants to go to a locals with like... My toon deck or whatever and just run exodia IN it? Like just make a 45 card deck and just have a chance of winning the lottery. I wouldn't top, but if it happens once I'm a god.
i got back into yugioh for the first time since synchro and the first deck master duel put me up against is solitaire drytron so i deleted the app and downloaded duel links instead
I just don't agree with "play yugioh the way everyone else is playing it" or at least I got that feeling when he was complaining about Burn FTKs, yes they are annoying but other gimmick decks deserve to exist that also alter how you would normally play yugioh unless you want everyone to play the same fill the field with negates and see who gets lucky after doing 20 mins of comboing link summoning
3 or more negate, especially when all or most of them are Omni-negate is annoying too. You cannot assume players will get more than 2 board breaker every game, and sometimes their hand will thinner because in 1st turn, they use their handtrap but usually it's not resolve because they have good protection like Called by or easy access to Omni-negate before doing the main combo. . And then, combo today only required a few cards like 1-3 card combo. So, after they set up their big board, they still have some handtraps in their hand. . But I cannot blame the players, it is Konami's fault. I hope Konami will prevent something like 1 card combo. Because combo deck already has easy access to extra deck with various good effects. It's not unfair if they still have something in their hand to disrupt their opponent when they have annoying and big monsters in their field.
Yeah i definitely agree with the exodia deck, never played the tcg and duel links and I've only been playing master duel for a few days then I got this ranked match against exodia deck and I have to stare at my screen for an entire 6mins until he drew all of his deck, not fun at all
I'm legitimately surprised that you didn't talk about handlooping because why would you care about your opponent having 6 cards in their opening hand as a going second player to defeat you, when you could just triple trishula + de-synchro all of your opponent's hand to the shadow realm
There's once a time at locals small tournament, this guy playing subterrors, pretty annoying deck. On duel 3 like a good Blue-Eyes player y bricket so hard and so him, when I already got all the pieces for a good otk I notice he was taking his time checking his hand and and shuffling... I didn't care tbh it was already GG. He pass, I brake his board, summon N100 with Dragublion for a nice 9k OTK I declare Attack and THEN HORN ANNOUNCES TIME UP. He won by merely one hit with Guru. Then I noticed there was a timer on the screen right behind me.

One of my favorite Decks was an Exodia Solid Deck in Duel Links, where I was searching for Exodia pieces with Legion the Fiend Jester and Blue Dragon Summoner.
Cook Stall has you summon Crooked Cook using Right Hand Shark as material, making it indestructible by battle. Then you just use it to stall out for Exodia or Final Countdown
Oh you're talking about Real life stalling and rule sharking 😂
You bull shark summon right shark right shark from deck right shark makes it so battle damage can't kill it. Crooked cook in now a card that you xyz summon in defense mode and is immune to all effects and can block infinite creatures without dying. The only work arounds are Kaiju and Piercing/direct damage. The deck never plays another card while cook is out and just draw, discards, go until exodia.
You actually came close to playing against Cook Exodia in Master Duel during one of your older streams a month or two ago. When you had a room open for viewers to duel in. I ended up facing against it and won via Burn Damage.
Ironically I was running a back row heavy Red-Eyes Control deck. With all of the cards required for the Inferno Fire Blast FTK. So it was basically two degenerate decks going at it. XD
You summon crooked cook with an xyz material that makes it gain effect that crooked cook can't be destroyed by battle. Then after that wait for exodia
In regards to Number 86 is there a way to either put more materials on it every turn or fulfil the requirement of removing the material you need to at the end of your opponent's turn but remove it from somewhere else?
Okay, so I play Exodia but I like to play the bad version I dub "Battle Exodia."
Basically using a combination of the Fruit Magician Girls, Exodia Obliterate and Treasure Panda to hopefully gain control of the match, put most of the pieces in the grave and win with Exodia Incarnate.
Would people still hate me just cuz it has the chance to win by default, even though that's not the game plan?
I once ran two of the light attribute barrier statues in a blue eyes deck to slow down my opponents.
I actually play Crooked Cook Exodia. I’m sure lots of people have pointed this out already, but if you use a card like Right Hand Shark, Left Hand Shark, or Astral Kuriboh as material, it makes it so Crooked Cook can’t be destroyed by battle or card effects. So if you control no cards, you summon Crooked Cook in Defense using one of those cards as material, and then you get a Crooked Cook that’s uneffected by your opponent’s card effects and can’t be destroyed by battle. So the only way around it is Kaiju-esque monsters, burn damage, or piercing damage.
Most of the time, your opponent can’t out it. But by golly, they’ll fry. “What if I non-target?” Nope! Uneffected by your opponent’s card effects. “What if I banish it?” Nope! Uneffected by your opponent’s card effects. “What if I summon a token to your field? Then you have cards! Haha!” Nope! Quick effect, destroy that token, give my Cook 300 ATK (not that that matters), and now…uneffected by opponent’s card effects. “What about Skill Drain? Gotcha! Now your effect is negated! Hahahahahaha!” Um…U-N-E-F-F-C-T-E-D
It just boils down to a stupid card that degenerate decks can get over, but most meta decks can’t. And I know what you’re thinking, “Well, that’s annoying, but if I deal with it, it’s done.” Nah bro…it’s at 3. And Pi Reis Map makes sure you can get to something that can summon it. It’s stupid. It’s real stupid.
And that's why that new spellbound card is good for shit like that
Distracting your opponent by using the adjunct "__ussy" with every card: "I summon Kragussy in attack mode. Take that you Rothchussy!"
I was playing in the traps & monsters only event in Master duel with a loaner deck (because they weren't horrible to use), I got crooked cook stalled & they exodia'ed me, I don't know or remember how I couldn't attack over Crooked cooks' 200 defence, but I couldn't, like the game showed the blue barrier that appears when you attack & you couldn't destroy the card. I reported the person & blocked them because I was so annoyed at that
You couldn't destroy them because cook players summon him with either astral Caribou or right hand shark. Both Monsters make him immune to battle destruction
@@ertawanderer1062 yea, it was probably one of those cards, let's hope next time I encounter a similar strat I'll be more prepaired
@@TheRamblemanWhoSings just have underworld goddess in your extra deck and you'll be fine
@@ertawanderer1062 yea, I would have used it, but the loaner deck didn't have it, but that's my fault for using a loaner deck
@@TheRamblemanWhoSings loner decks are a fun idea but they really need to put in staples.
Crooked Cook with Right-Hand Shark is the annoying part of #1 there. Can't destroy it in battle or do anything to it.
At the same time, however, it's super easy to tech against: run 1 copy of Pentestag and bring on the Piercing!
0:45 Playing slow to win via Time Expiration.
2:38
Crooked cook synergizes with left hand shark and right hand shark. Astral kuriboh also is great with the cook
7:00 I just use Buster because of how many blue-eyes decks were going around in duel links. Granted master duel and the tcg are pretty different to duel links so I don't use it as much in master duel.
Fossil Dyna
Jowgen
Equip and Protect.
I love this waaaay more than omninegate piles.
also i play wall of revealing light to kill myself to stop half hour turns
oh and 13:54 is food wars? nice dub clip, shame I don't know the characters
I met alot of players that can summon 3 monsters in the first round and they all heavy hitters I remember one was like 6000 hit points it was unbelievable as an old player who been having a hard time getting a good deck it still isn't enough because it takes Time to develop my cards plus they got this spider or harpies that can remove all monsters off field leaving me in a unplayable position so I just surrender most games because its unfair they prevent me from playing in rookie and bronze
Honestly I played against a Drytron Herald Deck on master duel this week and they Negated me 7 times on turn 1. I was playing Zombie Grass Eldlitch and every card in my hand was a starter.
For number 1, he probably doesn't know how to cook a turtle.
I actually had two FUN losses against Exodia.
1) The opponent was playing some weird Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon engine. I forget how it worked, but it used a Blue-Eyes card to get the Toon, then mainly ran Toon support to draw everything. I just imagined Seto Kaiba learning about a Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon/Exodia hybrid, and how infuriated he'd be.
2) Maxx 'C' challenge. Actually just saw a YT video of this one.
Deep Draw or Dragon Draw Exodia. It uses cards like Toon Table of Contents, Cards of Consinance, White Stone of Legend and Trade-In to draw through the entire deck.
@@TheForeverRanger yup - that's it!
When is Potato Hand going to host an entire episode
What I did was use Mystic mine+Ojama duo and trio+ rivalry of warlords+ Time Lords/Cauldron of the old man.
I hate you for once I hate timelords and mystic mine when they come to together I going to hate it
FINALLY! A video where Dave knows what he's talking about!
I think a lot of the salt about buster lock is from when union carrier was legal and you could put that shit in anything.
Where did you get that hoodie?
6:22 hard disagree. Setting up a bunch of negates is just as unfun (in game 1). Games 2 and three BOTH people can side optimally for the match up.
I'd even argue it isn't fun in games 2 and 3 because it turns into "draw the out" if you don't get Droplets in your opening hand you're screwed
I disagree with his assessment. A turn 1 with 5+ Omni negates literally is a negate per card. That means you are basically playing without a hand. Savage alone can have easily 4 counters, meaning 4 negates.
Astral koribo as material for cook makes him in destructible ... You leave him as the only monster and wait till you draw exodia... Soo yeah monster than can't be removed or destroyed and you wait .. Kaijus is the only and I do mean only way to remove him from the feild ...
I feel like alternate win conditions are cool when they are a challenge to achieve, like Destiny Board or F.A.’s or even Horakthy (I have no idea how to spell it), but Exodia is just boring and dull to fight against.
Right hand shark makes cook unable to be destroyed by battle
Where is True Draco Skill Drain?!
I like that he puts cook as the #1 degenerate strategy but doesn't know how it's used XD
Good thing we have freaking Lightning Storm and Raigeki at 3 to literally obliterate the barrier statue stuffs. Ah yes, maybe side in some Dark Holes and Lightning Vortexes in just in case.
7:00 I think the reason people hate Buster Lock is because “Oh… Dragons have so much support. It’s the best type in the game. Dragons are OP and everyone wants to be a dragon.” And then Buster over here is like “No.”
I don't mind it. Then again I play Dark Magician mostly.
exodia is carried by its iconic status it can only be stall or ftk
I once had an Op that summoned a 4 Mat Appollusa and put POWER OF THE GAURDIAN on it. So I forced out 2 negates, the second negate being Psi-reflector. (from the deck with Emergency Teleport) I had nothing else to do except...Tribute Psi-Reflector for Vanity's Fiend and proceed to beat the shit out of Apollousa for several turns. Finally I draw Lyla, Lightsworn Sorceress to pop the equip spell. The game was all mine after that
The re-re-return of dave
My opponent in MD tried to end me with Barrier of Inferno an d I opened Lava Golem...they instantly scooped.
Decks that only care if your stuff is going off and disregards the opponent is degenerate Yugimans.
I love beating crooked cook with toons. Go ahead make him invincible, I'm not attacking him anyways!
You don't know how Crooked Cook lock works, but you've put it on the list aniway...nice👌
One time in Master Duel, I got Rhongo'd, I had Maxx "C", AND I happened to be playing Tindangles! During his combo, he negated an effect that he didn't need to with the Gossip Shadow, so it was only 4 materials. I then proceeded to combo on him with Tindangles a couple turns later, and OTK him with Stairs of Mail to flip all my dudes up, Dholes, Jhrelth and Angel to get the dudes, and Dholes, Gergonne's End and Nagel's Protection for the damage. If you want to see the replay, the ID is 233-354-736 and the replay is against Wanderer.

@@Aranethon ty!
Part of me wants to go to a locals with like... My toon deck or whatever and just run exodia IN it? Like just make a 45 card deck and just have a chance of winning the lottery.
I wouldn't top, but if it happens once I'm a god.
True Draco and Degenerate must always be used in the same sentence
Hate Mystic Mine all you want, I'm still grinning.
God I wish someone would love me...
The ghostrick and venomenaga cards are degenerate strategies
But flying elephant is fine
If you have to move land and soil for your alternative wincon, it’s all ok.
We don't talk about flying elephant
i got back into yugioh for the first time since synchro and the first deck master duel put me up against is solitaire drytron so i deleted the app and downloaded duel links instead
My favorite play right now is Buster lock with Cyberdark End Dragon.
Master duel has a kind of slow play the lag cheat aka make your opponent lag out to claim a free win and just auto loses your opponent
I just don't agree with "play yugioh the way everyone else is playing it" or at least I got that feeling when he was complaining about Burn FTKs, yes they are annoying but other gimmick decks deserve to exist that also alter how you would normally play yugioh unless you want everyone to play the same fill the field with negates and see who gets lucky after doing 20 mins of comboing link summoning
9:56 Normal summon Ultimate Tyranno
Where can I get that hoodie? 😂
Im a little surprised final countdown isnt number 1
3 or more negate, especially when all or most of them are Omni-negate is annoying too. You cannot assume players will get more than 2 board breaker every game, and sometimes their hand will thinner because in 1st turn, they use their handtrap but usually it's not resolve because they have good protection like Called by or easy access to Omni-negate before doing the main combo.
.
And then, combo today only required a few cards like 1-3 card combo. So, after they set up their big board, they still have some handtraps in their hand.
.
But I cannot blame the players, it is Konami's fault. I hope Konami will prevent something like 1 card combo. Because combo deck already has easy access to extra deck with various good effects. It's not unfair if they still have something in their hand to disrupt their opponent when they have annoying and big monsters in their field.
Yeah i definitely agree with the exodia deck, never played the tcg and duel links and I've only been playing master duel for a few days then I got this ranked match against exodia deck and I have to stare at my screen for an entire 6mins until he drew all of his deck, not fun at all
Lmfao I lost it at getting ash blossomed with the feet one 🤣🤣🤣
Holy shit he's alive
I'm legitimately surprised that you didn't talk about handlooping because why would you care about your opponent having 6 cards in their opening hand as a going second player to defeat you, when you could just triple trishula + de-synchro all of your opponent's hand to the shadow realm
Game 1 magical explosion, game 2+3 self destruct button.
Also, i was part of the pojo community about self destruct button theme. Everyone agreed it should've been banned due to the abuse.
bro. you can to slow play in masterduel
So I guess we know what the next master dule stream is
Omggg I played against cooking stall at locals thats what made me run mine now
ooh so primal origin is next list? number 3 for that list gonna be easy.
The bedroom eyes🤣🤣🤣
There's once a time at locals small tournament, this guy playing subterrors, pretty annoying deck. On duel 3 like a good Blue-Eyes player y bricket so hard and so him, when I already got all the pieces for a good otk I notice he was taking his time checking his hand and and shuffling... I didn't care tbh it was already GG. He pass, I brake his board, summon N100 with Dragublion for a nice 9k OTK I declare Attack and THEN HORN ANNOUNCES TIME UP. He won by merely one hit with Guru. Then I noticed there was a timer on the screen right behind me.
You can now rule shark that your opponent smells and get them dq
Crooked cook turbo is not what you described
