I think we might be getting a Wizard of Oz archetype in CORE TCG.

http://ygorganization.com/readyforamericana/

They did the official TCG announcement for CORE, and it says we're getting a new archetype that is 'based on one of the most popular American fairy tales ever known'. I can't think of many super popular American fairy tales, and even fewer that could support multiple sets worth of support.

I HOPE it's a Wizard of Oz archetype. That would be rad as poo poo.

Clearly it's going to be the new Super HERO archetype with all your favorite Knock Offs like Super HERO Webslinger and Super HERO Lasereye.

Have you considered adding Giant rat? Its effect is very usefull for summoning big benki. Also isn't the new superheavy samurai a themed mst? You may want to add a few of those as well.

Edit: I completely forgot about Soulbuster Gauntlet, being able to double the defense of big benki has won me so many duels.

Added a few Giant Rats to the deck along with moving a machina fortress to my side board, and it works out well when it does but most of the time the rat seems to die/get removed by effects rather than battle. Other than that they're a solid pick for the deck.

What's the name of the mst superheavy samurai? Looking through the list in the client I couldn't seem to find it.

So after binge watching 5Ds I skipped Zexal cause the premise did nothing for me,

I'm 49 episodes into Arc-V and holy poo poo this type of insane interdimensional war is exactly what I want my children's card game animes to be about.

I really like that Yuya and Yuta/Ute XYZ'd each other so they're two souls overlayed one body. It's a nice plot/theme convergence. I'm guess Yugo/Hugo will sacrifice himself to created a path for Yuya and the fusion one with...well fuse with him until Yuya can just summon them all at will pendulum style.

I'm working my way through the second half of Arc-V right now and god a lot of the Synchro world draaaaaags and we don't get to spend a lot of time with out protagonists who are actually likable in favor of shittier versions of Crow and JACK ATLUS, THE MASTER OF FASTER, THE SULTAN OF SPEED, who seem to just be shittier cause Yusei wasn't around to balance out their shittier tendencies.

BUT holy poo poo the final duel with Yuya and Jack is so loving great and finally let Yuya put his money where his mouth was when it comes to his convictions about dueling and it tied so well into the themes clashing between him and Jack it almost made the whole slog worth it.

I really hope some of the less interesting Lancers beef it soon. Super Heavy Samurai boy doesn't deserve such a cool archetype and who could possibly even care about the Ninja. Also they need to let smug Rival/Leader actually do things sometimes. He's basically just Kaiba but 10000% more smug but they don't utilize him like they did Kaiba in the OG series.

I finally got around to finishing Arc-V. Boy that fizzled out around the Zexal world but I liked the ending and the returning crew from GX land. Resistance Murder Duelist Asuka was rad (and that new cyber angel was Bullshit. I love it) And Edo still being a huge poo poo head was fun.

The final boss duel dragged on but it had some real fun moments. Fusion Yuya's perpetual creepiness/horny for murder style was fun to see people react to.

Now to roll back and start Zexal I guess.

Arc-V is good until it's final fight which blows, Zexals is great.

VRAINS is intensely dull. Like the entire first arc all the villains are incredibly forgettable and then the second arc is mostly about the AI's who are all incredibly uninteresting except the protagonist one who you already know everything about.

Personally I think Rush duels seem refreshing and fun compared to most of the formats of modern Yugioh, so I wouldn't sell it so short. However, with the global pandemic going on absolutely devastating the TCG industry, not to mention the product is currently OCG only, it's not in a good spot yeah.


It might be a fun side thing but the fact that it's going to have it's own printed line of cards specifically for rush duels is uh...really really dumb. Like the thing keeping the whole brand afloat are people into the card game and you're saying "Okay now go buy this separate thing (While we also sell you normal duel variants of the new stuff) we promise you'll love it." That they're using their main vector for marketting new cards and gimmicks for it it's...perplexing.

it's like if 5D's speed world was a whole separate card game they tried to sell you on top of normal YGO. And this is the, what, 3rd faster variant they've come up with and will probably be dropped like they were but with the added caveat of "Now you have bunch of cards that are useless, okay bye!" when Lightspeed duels get added in 2 years.

It's such a weird way to do this.

I don't think rebooting the card game is needed, especially since the whole thing that made YGO more interesting than say MTG is that they will revisit to stupidest possible archetypes and add support a decade later.

You read the exact opposite of what I was saying from my post. The support of old poo poo is part of YGO and what makes it fun and neat and I was using that to compare it to the idea of rebooting it in some way and doing away with the old poo poo or the idea of set rotation like MTG does.

Gem Knights aren't bad, they're just unbalanced to the point where all of their good cards have to go on the F/L list or else they become a tier zero FTK machine, and their remaining cards are merely okay. I've seen people splash a GK engine into the new rock synchro archetype though, that might be cool.

My favourite bad archetype is Synchrons.

Gem Knights are just my favorite combo of "I will fuse everywhere. In my graveyard, from out of play, from my deck, from my hand, the field. Iwill fuse to special summon more fusions to fuse again. My turn will take half an hour and I will win."

Everything in the OG Manga was just Akagi but stupid or really dumb complicated games that would be better done by later franchises much much better.

The franchise's tip toward incredibly high stakes melodrama played painfully straight faced while also being about a children's card game is the only reason it was ever noteworthy or stuck around. The Yuya/Jack Atlas duel has more characterization, pathos, set up, pay off and story arc than the entirety of the original manga.

That one's also good, but the final Synchro world cup duel is like the last time Yuya's character feels like it is yuya growing and honing his own style of duel by being forced into tight corners by Jack Atlas, who is an unbending Iron Will who wholly believes in what 5D's/Sycnhro world was about. Synchro arc has issues and Draaaaaaaaaaaaaags in the center but the final duel is a fantastic way to see Jack Atlas (and 5Ds) off in style and actually shows how Yuya's coming to terms with his own path to the future he wants to build and what he's gotta do to get there.

Then the next arc is just the downfall of Yuya being a character and it's just not fun.
