Don't know if you read replies to the sponsor pin, but have you ever considered what Raider's Wing would be named if it had to have "(The) Phantom Knights" and "Raidraptor" in it?
Wait what? Bonfire is an anime-original? From GX? Well...Time to rewatch GX again, I guess. Dude, imagine Yubel actually using Fire Kings in her deck. It doesn't even need to be the most recent support with the Garunix- and the Kirin-retrain. Yubel + Yaksha and Island was a relatively consistent and powerful deck for months, if not years, in Duel Links. The power level of GX is low as fuck when Zane gets rid of Cyber Dragon for Cyberdark and Cyrus plays Roids. You know what? Don't even think of that. If Neos combined with vanilla-HEROes can be a powerful deck, what the fuck do I know? Chazz and Alexis probably have some of the strongest decks in the series. You know what? I choose Chazz. He plays Inferno-Tempest. I love that card.
@@r4nd0mguy99funny thing is gx has the most iconic and maybe the only pyro duelist and they were introduced in the same arc yet they didn’t give him bonfire
When the OCG has all of the Archfiend named as Daemons, a pretty generic description that can put on a lot of things, it winds up that a couple will have that name. Case in point, Labyrnth Archfiend.
Yubel played the summoning beasts in the anime, Nightmare Throne working on them, or Opening of the Spirit Gates working on Yubel, is 100% intentional. Hell, they're all 0/0 fiends that look suspiciously draconic, I bet Yubel made them out of its own flesh/spirit.
Royal Penguins Garden is (an example of) the reason why Yugioh archetype names are often filled with weird choices and superfluous hyphens. Because this card exist, if Konami ever wants to print a viable deck that is cold/arctic/bird/etc themed they either have to 1. conspicuously leave out a penguin member 2. come up with a naming convention that allows them to use a name/codename instead of the animal species or 3. they have to use some awkward "not precisely P-E-N-G-U-I-N" word like Pengwin or Painguin or PEN-Guin
Shout out to Arsenal Summoner that has to intentionally exclude a ton of "Guardian" monsters that have that name in the TCG but not the correct japanese name to match up with the cards its supposed to search like Grarl and Eatos, and still misses a few like Gate Guardian.
I cant believe Muskets were the archetype we chose to highlight with Fiendsmith Tractus and not the archetype with like 8 light fiends that all revolve around being discarded Mister Zeeff would be deeply offended
Musketeers is desperate for Fiendsmith. Muskets have little room for non-engine, because the biggest nightmare the deck has is having no Musket monsters in your hand and with no way to get to them, so we had to have as many of the archetypal monsters as possible, but also have as many archetypal S/Ts because having monsters but no bullets to pew pew with is also not ideal. Before Fiendsmith the most successful variant is Runick Musketeer because if you have no Musketeers in hand, you can at least play Runick and hopefully draw into a monster. With Fiendsmith Musketeers can: - Use Tractus to simply add a Musketeer to hand - SS Requiem with Max after using Max's on summon effect instead of just leaving him hanging there - Use Lacrimosa to SS a Musketeer from banishment or GY I love Fiendsmith Konami please spare the angy boi.
Abyss Keeper did NOT come out alongside a wave of Ghoti support, Abyss Keeper came out in BODE a full 8 months before the first wave of Ghotis in POTE. Y’all are just straight up lying in the Twitter threads now.
Why can Branded Fusion send Dark Magician? Why can Lubellion summon almost any fusion monster? Why is Albaz an adequate material for Dragoon? Why is Branded Fusion objectively better than Red-Eyes Fusion in its own deck? _The world __-may never know.-__ _*_knew the second Konami thought mixing burn, equip cards, and Gemini into a single deck was a good idea._*
If possible I would love to see the opposite of this: Cards meant to support a very specific archetype but ended up being used for completely different strategies (like Frightfur Patchwork for example).
I brought it up in the thread, but the ishizu cards were a line of pretty cool graveyard effects that saw use here and there in a couple of archetypes. There was, however, a certain lineup of water anime girls that uh.......... got some value from the ishizus.
When nadir servant was limited in MD, ultimate slayer is insane card for dogmatika going second, it's a board breaker, it put extradeck monster in the GY so you could summon maximus, and the monster you sent to the GY has additional effect too. Sure you can use it in other deck but dogmatika extradeck is specifically build to be yeet-ed to GY
On the topic of ice barrier I remember trying to jam it into icejade in master duel, then I went to add foolish burial goods only to be confused as to why it was limited. It's limited because it sends tearlaments sulliek to the grave. Or you can send ice barrier for either kosmochlor or gameciel!
The glow up of Magical Musketeer is wild since release they were a deck that was pretty good......... if you opened a name and spell and even their insane link one wasn't enough to fix them........ but now because they are the only other Archtype of light fiends they are now Meta adjacent
@@yserareborn they have two............ one of which can only be summoned after full combo..... so I wouldn't call that on the same lvl of Magical Musketeer
Fusion Deployment COULD be used to summon Cartesia, but you can also use it to summon: * Gladiator Beast Bestiari * Neo-Spacian Grand Mole (non-target, non-destruction removal) * Cannon Soldier (!) * Blue-Eyes White Dragon * Red-Eyes Black Dragon * Dark Magician * Cyber Dragon * Buster Blader * Elemental HERO Neos * Grapha, Dragon Lord of Dark World * Spirit Reaper * Witch of the Black Forest/Sangan * Barrel Dragon/Blowback Dragon * Suijin/Kazejin/Sanga of the Thunder * X-Head Cannon/Y-Dragon Head/Z-Metal Tank
Kashtira Fenrir is really good in Madolche rn because the new Madolche link is "2+ effect monsters including a Madolche" instead of "2+ Madolche monsters" and Fenrir control is a good backup plan if your Peting or Mageiline gets ashed
Let's not forget one people were calling for a ban for for years. Rekindling! It's just Soul Charge but the only restrictions are Fire monsters with 200 defense. Originally made to support Flamvell, so many Fire monsters over the years were given 200 defense just to be a Rekindling target. I'm surprised it's not run in Snake-Eye Fire King since most of its monsters, including Oak, Poplar, and a good chunk of the Fire Kings, are targets.
There was a short period where Valkyrie could double VFD. Also, linkross, auroradon, etc, gave it fantastic combo potential. One of their in archetype monsters could dump any spell or trap from deck and then auroradon could grab a trap from grave. Imperial order was legal at the time so it was very easy to VFD + Imperial on first turn.
Windwitch was actually a pretty viable engine for Charmers. Specifically Wynn pieces, Luna, and Dharc. Yes I spelled that right, Fairy Tale Luna. (Lynn is here too for Unpossessed. Before their support cards came out. Side deck has the others to adjust but Wind Channeler.)tal Wing support, change my mind. More to the point, windwitch is Crystal Wing support, change my mind.
Yeah bonfire is cool for Laval as just another way to start the fenix ftk without original sin, because it can make Accel Synchron. It’s crazy what having 6 copies of soul charge can do for an archetype, and also crazy what it doesn’t.
So one of the newest brews I’ve got cooked up is resonator centurion. The deck basically revolves around the soul resonator bone Archfiend to make a board of abyss plus pater alongside centurion aux to do crimson dragon on my opponents turn to cheat out supernova. Love that cents don’t lock you out of other decks!
"The ghostrick boss monster" reminds me of my dumb harpie deck in master duel, where the bosses are...big eye and red eyes flare metal dragon. Yes, cyber slash is there too, she just doesn't usually have any protection and has low atk, so she just dies. Also of note, the simorgh link 3 gets splashed everywhere that has winged beasts. Even seen it in fur hire to summon the lvl 1 and lvl 5 (revive and burn respectively)
I wish MBT saw my post about Starring Knight being unintentional Valkyrie support, but I think I joined the thread too late. I really wanted him to do his Zigfried impression since his craptastic Valkyries are... decent... with Starring Knight being able to revive them.
Dempsey isn’t cope in VS. You just have to open Parallel Exceed and any normal summon. In hands that already have Raizen access they instead covert into SP, Dweller, Bagooska, etc.
Fire formation Tenki was amazing in lunalights searches everything, not to mention all the shenanigans that lunalights helped others do like sheep helping people get poly or whatever tiger did to get limited. felt like that deck helped several non- lunalight decks
I just built Generaider recently in MD for the XYZ cup, and am surprised how good this, pretty sure it applies to the prompt. So the idea of Condemned Witch is to search a "Forbidden" quick-play spell like Chalice and then tag out into Condemned Maiden to use it from hand during opponent's turn. Sure. I guess you can't say Runick did it first. Yeah INSTEAD Imma set it and tag out into Loptr. Worst case its a one card Chalice/Droplet ("Forbidden" + Lightning symbol lol) & Mardell/Nidhogg and best case I have another way to trigger stage in case they ash, or I can Vala for a name I drew. Feels consistently better than Planet for stage or Lonefire for Mardell for Stage because just grabbing stage doesn't do anything going second/if it gets ash'd but the chalice/droplet is a negate going first or second. It's never come up, but I also have it in the back of my head that I could summon Diviner of the Heralds, but I can't think of something better than 1 card Forbidden + N'tss or Forbidden + Trias for Diviner's tag-out target. I hope that archetype comes out one day.
I was on laval snake eye when snake eyes first came out, mostly as a synchro engine of sorts with 3 handmaiden, 1 archer, 1 lancelord, 1 lakeside lady. Was pretty fun lol
I swear to god, the only reason more decks didn't make alembertian while circular was legal was because everybody was either bagooska-pilled or because they simply weren't playing a deck that made a rank 4. Been using the mathmech package in vaalmonica in master duel and it's actually quite strong. Seriously, add superfactorial to your end field and you still get 2 level 4 bodies to play with?
@festusfive9157 make alembertian > grab circular > circular send nabla to summon > alembertian eff to summon nabla from grave, tributing itself > circular effect to grab superfactorial from deck > nabla effect tributing either itself or circular to summon diameter from deck > use diameter and the mathmech you didn't tribute for a synchro play/link play/whatever gets them into grave > set superfactorial at the end of your turn It's so free it's kinda insulting, circular is a crazy fucking card
Alembertian is the craziest Rank-4 support that barely gets the use you'd expect out of it. 3 mats gets the level 4 of your choice, 4 mats searches practically ANY backrow you want, including some things that didn't come with specific ways for their archetypes to search them. Yeah that's a lot of resources to chew through for a specific add, so you'd only want to commit as a last resort, but you'd think knowing the option was there would be enough to make it see more play, nevermind the dumb stuff Circular allows just TWO mats to do.
I'm surprised nobody mentioned Verte. The most broken archetype specific piece of support that boosted every other strategy while also seeing no play in its own archetype because Predaplants lock themselves into fusions super early into their combo so they can't even make it
For real though, the XYZ armor line in Evil Eye made it one of my best rogue decks. The deck has a ton of 1-card starters to get your towers + pop + search + XYZ armor, and between those two engines also OTKs like crazy.
@@rafi...___ You don't have to, you can use Armored Xyz spell or trap. Well, easy access equip helps but the Armored Xyz S/T are enough. Plus if FA DK Lancer survives it can salvage back Armored Xyz spell from GY.
@@rafi...___ IIRC, the PK sword is a continuous trap, not an equip. But yeah, like the other guy mentioned, it works off any equip spell, the XYZ armor card is just helpful for triggering it on opponent's turn as a disruption that's hard to plus off of. Going second, it allows you to use that effect to help break boards, and FA crystalzero can be used between rank 5 and 7 to dark ruler the opponent
For this thread i gave a bunch of examples and ill list some of them again here Gruesome grave squirmer in any fiend deck is a free extender pretty much Centur-ion auxila is a dark dragon synchro meaning you can make it in rda/resonator under its locks Snake eye can easily make a synchro 9 via flamberge and jet synchron letting you make power tool braver dragon to get your mikanko equip spells into rotation
Before isolde was banned Dempsey was actually a consistent way to get the new broken ass Golden Rule card in crystal beast. Bond for Peg + CB Dragon, Dragon summon eagle, ns peg, peg puts something in backrow. Overlay for dempsey, search fire Flint lady, special it and link Isolde, send golden rule to special summon Infernbole Knight Renaud, return Golden Rule to hand.
My fire deck runs 1 of every snake-eye monster (except the purple one, I run 2 of that one because it can special summon itself in hand) and the rest is a bunch of Laval and Volcanic stuff. And one or two niche cards that help Volcanics and Laval like one or two Flamevell and 3 of the Rekindling. It's also a 60 card pile. I use it to fight the solo missions, because it's got so much random gas that people rage quit before I can drag out a laval or volcanic boss monster. 😢
Tri-Brigade and Ragnaraika have boosted their respective type decks to competitive (Tri-Brigade more cuz Ragnaraika came out at the same time as Snake-Eye)
Will use Bonfire in Volcanics. Will also use it in nurse burn anti cure to search Burning Algae and link off of it to do 1000 damage. And yes this is based on Nurse Fontaine's strategy in yugioh gx, who by the way is WHERE Bonfire came from. (Strange that it's not from Axel).
I love the musketeers, I would play them with runick and time tearing morganite. I hope some of my favorite cards are finally allowed to become what I knew they could. Go my (light) fiends, become the next zoodiac!
I use Clockwork in a few of my characters decks, Machine king Barboros is a fun since it can turn a the field into machines and once its in my hand auto summon barboros.
Dang. Cant believe i got hit with "Laval" at the start. Its one of my favorite decks to play whenever i play the 5ds games and even in link evolution and i just love using it. I especially love summoning Stennon to the field and feeling like im summoning my ancient gear golem against friends and feeling powerful Plus side, the Balrog stage remix music in the background lessened the blow and now im just curious of other remixes of the street fighter 2 songs
The sad thing is that Laval doesn't even get helped much by Bonfire because the starters are unsearchable Spell Cards (Rekindling, Molten Conduction Field). If you could find a side engine (*cough* Snake-Eyes *cough*) to mill 2 Lavals including Handmaiden to remove the MCF, then we can talk about Bonfire searching for the "extenders" which have no effect on the field (Coatl, Lv2 Tuner or Burner, Lv5 non-Tuner and can't be searched by Bonfire lol) which need 3 names in the GY to special themselves.
LOL to the guy that kept trying to convince me Yama was just the best fiend support since it gives any fiend deck access to the unchained extra deck but not every fiend deck even wants to do to that like how basically every dragon deck uses Seals, Striker dragon and or Romulus.
I commented too late on this thread but I love that Nightmare Throne makes my Cubic deck 1% better and there are some fun interactions with Phantom Yubel and Chronicle too.
1:54 If Hieratic doesn't get support this year I'll be pretty disappointed. It's been 12 years since their original release and as such is the next year of the Dragon. They're also LIGHT monsters if they want to go in on that more.
4:13 is there a video or write-up on this deck? I was able to find Cameron Neal mentioned on the Konami website but didn't see any breakdowns on the deck.
Ngl I really want Laval to get actual good support so that it's actually somewhat playable. They got an archetypal Snake Rain and sort of an archetypal Soul Charge, but can't do much with them.
Armored Xyz Evil Eye is even better in master duel since you can do MX sabre invoker into any zoodiac for drident, then rank up for the rank 5 xyz, detach 2 to add the xyz armored trap and the spell for follow-up
I already tried factor, and they sent wrong meals/missed meals, and one included what appeared to be a piece of plastic in the meal itself. All within 2 weeks of orders. No thanks never trying again. Plus very overpriced tbh.

Archfiend is everywhere. The fact that even axe of despair became an archfiend!

It's never come up, but I also have it in the back of my head that I could summon Diviner of the Heralds, but I can't think of something better than 1 card Forbidden + N'tss or Forbidden + Trias for Diviner's tag-out target. I hope that archetype comes out one day.
When i say the "FIRST ~clap~ BUT" SENTTT ME xD
I was so startled I had to rewind, that crafty MBT got me to watch more ad content
“We all know cooking can be hard” me with my microwave mac and cheese on the couch
I was on laval snake eye when snake eyes first came out, mostly as a synchro engine of sorts with 3 handmaiden, 1 archer, 1 lancelord, 1 lakeside lady. Was pretty fun lol
Y'know Cartesia is kind of the best Witchcrafter cars ever printed.
I swear to god, the only reason more decks didn't make alembertian while circular was legal was because everybody was either bagooska-pilled or because they simply weren't playing a deck that made a rank 4. Been using the mathmech package in vaalmonica in master duel and it's actually quite strong. Seriously, add superfactorial to your end field and you still get 2 level 4 bodies to play with?
bro help i dont know how to do the combo ive always been scared of reading cyberse cards, help an ogdo player out
@festusfive9157 make alembertian > grab circular > circular send nabla to summon > alembertian eff to summon nabla from grave, tributing itself > circular effect to grab superfactorial from deck > nabla effect tributing either itself or circular to summon diameter from deck > use diameter and the mathmech you didn't tribute for a synchro play/link play/whatever gets them into grave > set superfactorial at the end of your turn
It's so free it's kinda insulting, circular is a crazy fucking card
@@owry3144 ok thanks i will start cooking
Alembertian is the craziest Rank-4 support that barely gets the use you'd expect out of it. 3 mats gets the level 4 of your choice, 4 mats searches practically ANY backrow you want, including some things that didn't come with specific ways for their archetypes to search them.
Yeah that's a lot of resources to chew through for a specific add, so you'd only want to commit as a last resort, but you'd think knowing the option was there would be enough to make it see more play, nevermind the dumb stuff Circular allows just TWO mats to do.
Yubel literally played the sacred beasts.
Battlin' Boxer King Dempsey has so much potential
Wow that Magical Musket Fiendsmith callout aged like wine
I'm surprised nobody mentioned Verte. The most broken archetype specific piece of support that boosted every other strategy while also seeing no play in its own archetype because Predaplants lock themselves into fusions super early into their combo so they can't even make it
For real though, the XYZ armor line in Evil Eye made it one of my best rogue decks. The deck has a ton of 1-card starters to get your towers + pop + search + XYZ armor, and between those two engines also OTKs like crazy.
but like,isnt evil-eye equip can only equip to evil-eye monster and the rank 7 armor only get the attach eff if it gets equip, not other monster?
FA Dark Knight Lancer can do its effect as long as your monster equips a card.
@@thonkingindeed well damn. gonna add phantom knight sword to my pk deck
@@rafi...___ You don't have to, you can use Armored Xyz spell or trap. Well, easy access equip helps but the Armored Xyz S/T are enough. Plus if FA DK Lancer survives it can salvage back Armored Xyz spell from GY.
@@rafi...___ IIRC, the PK sword is a continuous trap, not an equip.
But yeah, like the other guy mentioned, it works off any equip spell, the XYZ armor card is just helpful for triggering it on opponent's turn as a disruption that's hard to plus off of. Going second, it allows you to use that effect to help break boards, and FA crystalzero can be used between rank 5 and 7 to dark ruler the opponent
How could we forget the best reaction to the Verte ban
“My sacred beast deck is dead”- a true duelist
For this thread i gave a bunch of examples and ill list some of them again here
Gruesome grave squirmer in any fiend deck is a free extender pretty much
Centur-ion auxila is a dark dragon synchro meaning you can make it in rda/resonator under its locks
Snake eye can easily make a synchro 9 via flamberge and jet synchron letting you make power tool braver dragon to get your mikanko equip spells into rotation
Before isolde was banned Dempsey was actually a consistent way to get the new broken ass Golden Rule card in crystal beast.
Bond for Peg + CB Dragon, Dragon summon eagle, ns peg, peg puts something in backrow. Overlay for dempsey, search fire Flint lady, special it and link Isolde, send golden rule to special summon Infernbole Knight Renaud, return Golden Rule to hand.
My fire deck runs 1 of every snake-eye monster (except the purple one, I run 2 of that one because it can special summon itself in hand) and the rest is a bunch of Laval and Volcanic stuff. And one or two niche cards that help Volcanics and Laval like one or two Flamevell and 3 of the Rekindling. It's also a 60 card pile. I use it to fight the solo missions, because it's got so much random gas that people rage quit before I can drag out a laval or volcanic boss monster. 😢
Y'all forgot all about Ghostrick Zeus for some reason.
The lv8 punk synchro summons geek boy from deck, giving you full libromancer combo after the punk stuff.
Tri-Brigade and Ragnaraika have boosted their respective type decks to competitive (Tri-Brigade more cuz Ragnaraika came out at the same time as Snake-Eye)
The penguins post got me to lab penguins and oh god this deck is so close to being playable but it's so fucking badly designed on so many levels
Calling Gravity Controller the most generic support cause its a link 1 is a crime against Almiraj
Blazing Cartesia is the best Witchcrafter fusion spell
Will use Bonfire in Volcanics. Will also use it in nurse burn anti cure to search Burning Algae and link off of it to do 1000 damage.
And yes this is based on Nurse Fontaine's strategy in yugioh gx, who by the way is WHERE Bonfire came from. (Strange that it's not from Axel).
As a Dragonmaid player, Seals set Tidying pass has clutched me quite a number of games.
I love the musketeers, I would play them with runick and time tearing morganite. I hope some of my favorite cards are finally allowed to become what I knew they could. Go my (light) fiends, become the next zoodiac!
I use Clockwork in a few of my characters decks, Machine king Barboros is a fun since it can turn a the field into machines and once its in my hand auto summon barboros.
Dang. Cant believe i got hit with "Laval" at the start. Its one of my favorite decks to play whenever i play the 5ds games and even in link evolution and i just love using it.
I especially love summoning Stennon to the field and feeling like im summoning my ancient gear golem against friends and feeling powerful
Plus side, the Balrog stage remix music in the background lessened the blow and now im just curious of other remixes of the street fighter 2 songs
The sad thing is that Laval doesn't even get helped much by Bonfire because the starters are unsearchable Spell Cards (Rekindling, Molten Conduction Field). If you could find a side engine (*cough* Snake-Eyes *cough*) to mill 2 Lavals including Handmaiden to remove the MCF, then we can talk about Bonfire searching for the "extenders" which have no effect on the field (Coatl, Lv2 Tuner or Burner, Lv5 non-Tuner and can't be searched by Bonfire lol) which need 3 names in the GY to special themselves.
It is a honest to god war crime that they never printed a Laval card that searches Rekindling.
LOL to the guy that kept trying to convince me Yama was just the best fiend support since it gives any fiend deck access to the unchained extra deck but not every fiend deck even wants to do to that like how basically every dragon deck uses Seals, Striker dragon and or Romulus.
I commented too late on this thread but I love that Nightmare Throne makes my Cubic deck 1% better and there are some fun interactions with Phantom Yubel and Chronicle too.
“We gotta do something about this guy.” Bro is scared of me lol (yes that’s me)
Dark Balter the Terrible turning into Cydra in Mutamorphosis? Damn, that's nostalgia bait if I've ever seen it. I've never seen this card before.
The Rciela Synchro can search ecclesia and make a light and dark chaos angel with aleister
8:18 how did he do a real life SBaHJ face
I'm genuinely surprised that Allure of Darkness didn't get a mention
I love my favorite salamangreat cards, speedroid terrortop and tatatomborg
1:54 If Hieratic doesn't get support this year I'll be pretty disappointed. It's been 12 years since their original release and as such is the next year of the Dragon. They're also LIGHT monsters if they want to go in on that more.
XYZ Lancer really does go nuts in Evil Eye, you can end on 2 of them and their effect to suck something up is NOT hard opt.
4:13 is there a video or write-up on this deck? I was able to find Cameron Neal mentioned on the Konami website but didn't see any breakdowns on the deck.
Did anyone notice that MBT's intro was finally included
Ngl I really want Laval to get actual good support so that it's actually somewhat playable. They got an archetypal Snake Rain and sort of an archetypal Soul Charge, but can't do much with them.
Goblin king works in Goblin decks surprisingly well
Armored Xyz Evil Eye is even better in master duel since you can do MX sabre invoker into any zoodiac for drident, then rank up for the rank 5 xyz, detach 2 to add the xyz armored trap and the spell for follow-up
I already tried factor, and they sent wrong meals/missed meals, and one included what appeared to be a piece of plastic in the meal itself. All within 2 weeks of orders. No thanks never trying again. Plus very overpriced tbh.
I was so pissed with bonfires pricetag because i wanted to play volcanics
Psychic Processor and Psychic arsenal were Kozmo support but screwed the name up 😭
Gravity Controller is S-Force Gravitino, pre-SForce
Was gonna submit psychic end punisher as an example for Punk, but I don't think anyone but me runs it as a pure deck
I imagine it’s an honor to be a part of the LVK testing group…..
When MBT MBT's so hard he MBT's all over the floor
I’d love to see Cam Neal’s deck except I can’t find the damn thing anywhere 🤣
Chaos consumes pretty much everything dark, light or that mills.
Ancient Gear Ballista... meant to support Ancient Gear but probably sees more play in Earth machine piles lol
