it was just one of the starter decks. i decided to say gently caress it and removed some urs and sr's from a fluffal deck that I can't make yet for lack of UR/SR craft things. I hope that works out better. TBH I have no idea what I want to play even after doing the solo mode stuff

If you want a budget Fluffal list I think something like this could work. I've cut down the URs and SRs to the bone, the only staple ones are the ones you get for special deals in the shop or through single player (the shop ones are fantastic deals for 1k gems and easily doable FTP).

You can get away with crafting 1 UR and about 7 SRs to have a functional deck in this set up though obviously subbing in more SRs/URs will improve it. Should be decently functional though!



Decklist

Monsters- 22
Fluffal Cat x1
Fluffal Wings x1

Monster Reborn x1
Frightfur Fusion x1
Foolish Burial Goods x2
Frightfur Patchwork x2
Frightfur reborn x1
Frightfur Repair x1
Toy Vendor x1
Forbidden Chalice x1

Traps- 2

Extra- 15
Frightfur Sheep x2

Master Duel is strange because you can make a competitive deck basically immediately if you're prepared to make a cheap deck like Sky Strikers. The more competitive level of yugioh is a very different game though.

Three copies of the Utopia structure deck will get you to something that's pretty competent at making Leo Ray with a Pegasus Twin Saber and at least one other ZW every game. Or failing that just blow the enemy out with an unnecessarily large Utopia Double combo. That'll carry you through gold while you either build the deck you really want or get the cards to make it way more consistent and powerful.

Another angle might be to see what people were showing around in the N/R rarity festival. Some of those decks are janky as hell, but they were CHEAP.

Now that I'm more established in terms of staples, I reworked my original first Master Duel deck Earth Machines and took it back into ladder. Surprisingly I got two wins on Swordsoul with it which has been pretty funny. Turns out people who netdeck the meta threats don't know where or how to stop the infinite train

Kinda makes sense to delay Adventure/Floo, Swordsoul was already a big meta shift and they're giving players time to adjust before Adventure shakes things up again

So, is there a particularly star Predaplant/Venom deck I can work on netdecking to start trying out in earnest? Predaplant was great in the fusion festival, and I kinda get the feeling that unlike every other deck I've tried to build so far, these guys were legit non-gimmicks at some stage.

I'm excited. I'm working on making Kaiju Scrap Dinos for regular play, so I think I'll probably add some Dinowrestler stuff to fill in the gaps for the highlander event, and embrace the Blind Second life.

- Fusion Destiny
- Verte
- one of the Numeron Gate XYZ monsters

+7ing on cards that aren't hand traps in your endphase doesn't mean anything. Normal summon Jowgen set a bunch of counter traps is a similar strategy in the modern metagame. Every meta deck has such an easy OTK line and can out value even a judgement if left to go off with minimal interaction.

Yeah if you want a spell based deck that gets unbeatable value on its second turn Sky Striker is a much better version.

I modified a HERO deck I built for Fusion Fest for this. Not having Verte Anaconda or Fusion Destiny just means that I have less of a focus on DPE and I spent more of my test plays turboing out Malicious Bane.

Hows everyone finding the Limit 1 festival? I am having great success with my Kragen deck. Having a greater variety of water monsters instead of '3 ofs' hasnt really affected it much considering everyone else is arguably powered down a bit too.

Spyral, which I know I'm a broken record on but it legitimately already just ran 1 of everything except the field spell and trap, so it maintains its core engine regardless.

It's normally a brick-fest on both sides of the court, and once you realize that, it's hilarious. As well as a great lesson in deckbuilding; it turns out you pack those three-ofs for a reason.

I've just been running the Rokket sample deck, since all my gems are currently going to building Unchained (which mostly means I'm sitting on a motherlode of Fire Kings instead), which I've been finding pretty functional. Turns out a lot of decks kinda struggle staring down the barrel of a Borrelcode Dragon, and even more decks struggle when it's instead replaced by Topologic Bomber.

Yeah ive done ok with not bricking very much. Quite a few water monsters can special summon itself or others under certain conditions and I also use monsters that do stuff when destroyed so its been fine for the most part. Also if you XYZ summon Bahamut Shark you get a free Toadally Awesome (well cost is one attached monster), which can screw their spell or traps. You can also Bahamut Shark again next turn and grab another XYZ monster and if everything goes right have 3 on the board for the cost of 2 effect monsters (or you can resummon Toadally Awesome again). There are loads of plays you can make depending and you get XYZ water monsters that summon on destruction so you can keep going a lot of the time.

Also, getting out Kragen means you can pop a monster per turn and if it dies you can bring out the baby Kragen which essentially does the same thing... and you can make Zeus super easy.

its been fun so far.

I've been running a modifed version of my Luna Kaiju list and the only real difference I've noticed is that I don't get those turns where you pop off and manage to summon 3 Bigfoots.

Biggest disappointment from the event is definitely that we get normal legacy packs instead of even a stab at a themed one though.

Yeah they always give you lacklustre rewards past the gems. I suppose its due to bots, but it means I dont really care to play an awful lot past the rewards. I have another account so just move to that one instead.
