everythingWasBees posted:So are ritual summons pretty much forgotten without much support? How are gishki cards, and even though only some ritual monsters have the "Cannot be special summoned by..." bit on it, is it implied that that no ritual card can be special summoned by other ways? Let me introduce you to a little archetype called Nekroz, currently the best deck on the format.

Beef Waifu posted:That Blue-Eyes redesign is horrendous and the Dark Magician has child bearing hips now it seems. I'm kind of hoping they're just straight up new versions of the monsters, but they're probably saving that for the actual movie. The Magician uses the design Takahashi did for the 10th anniversary artbook  He also did a redesign for the DMG but that one did became a different monster, Magi Magi Girl.

Slur posted:I've never lost to Noble Knights, once, in any format. Beef Waifu posted:Couldn't even beat my Blue-Eyes deck let alone my competitive Yosenju one. It doesn't surprise me, there are few truly skilled NK players out there. Most of them still think that the deck is king or bust and that is an incredibly weak setup. As NK player you want to have the bigger amount of knights equipped with different arms on the field possible, thus when one finally falls it will only strengthen the others. The kings are best used to push for game with Merlin's effect, last resort or in King Artorigus' case to control the opponent's backrow. Yosenju are a tricky matchup, that much is true though. I'd love to play against you guys but I'm at work now. How does tonight sound?

If I may give some suggestions: -A Trapless build is ideal -If you want to run traps, the most useful is Solemn Scolding and going on the current meta, Imperial Iron Wall is worth looking. -Parallel Twister is another great tech -Check an Unexpected Guy, it allows for good opening plays. -Don't understimate Table -Three Brothers are kind of a must these days.

Looks pretty drat solid. Although I'm not fully sold on the Kaiser on the side, A Monarch Stormforth and you're boned (plus isn't that useful against Nekroz). You're also lacking on effect negation, Breakthrough and Chalice are great options My deck is pretty similar in fact

Onmi posted:Kaiser is to side against more non-standard decks such as Madolche, also surprisingly helpful versus Burning Abyss, Shaddols and Qli. Not as good as good old vanity but... well I don't have that anymore. Nekroz... I've not really fought so I don't know how to fight it. The biggest Nekroz threat is Trishula since Excaliburn is useless against it, you have few options to deal wit it: you either play without hand/graveyard so its effect can't be applied, you run effect negation or you block removal entirely BA biggest threat were the fuckton of traps they used to run but nowadays they are more aggro and don't run that many traps, evening the odds. In the end is more a battle of attrition with them. Shaddoll are by far the easiest match we have against high tier decks Qli aren't that overwhelming under the new banlist so as along you keep Gallatin on the field you will be fine. Ritual Beasts are a potential threat but they rely on removing, so Imperial is your best shot Yosenju are a MASSIVE pain in the rear end if they set their board before us, otherwise, they have plenty of issues to past a full NK board.

Quirkk posted:I just downloaded Devpro a few days ago after getting into Arc-V. This is the first time I've played since around when Elemental Heroes came out and I haven't watched the anime since GX season 2 so I've had a lot to catch up on. Building any sort of deck with Xyz is still confusing me. Haven't even touched Pendulum yet. I was playing a game earlier where I had Necrovalley out and my opponent played their own field spell which didn't destroy Necrovalley and I thought it was bugging out at first. When did they change how field spells work? And have there been any other changes like that? I'm just surprised that they made a change to the base rules like that. Since past year's July. The other notorious change is that the starting player can't draw on their first turn.

Infernoids are indeed an interesting deck, I need to think on how face them. UA's are also fun and is very interesting to see how different the two TCG warrior archetypes work. As you could imagine, to play NK you need to be able to plan on the fly. Although that means turns tend to be a bit long

Earlier today played a great match against a Heraldic player. Guy was also a great sport, I mean wiping my field just so the following turn I recovered couldn't been easy to digest. Most people thinks that Medraut is the heart of the NK but he shares the spot with Borz and Brothers.

Onmi posted:First duel thoughts I try to plan in advance with my knights so that's why I tend to keep some plays in reserve so to speak (sometimes has come to bite me the rear end though) That ROTA was my backup plan in case that I got my field wiped, search Medraut and then summon the knight best fitted to recover. The second duel was slightly easier since I could build my field on the first turn, Table really puts a lot of work when played properly. Without it, I would've been boned. I'm not that familiar with Heraldic but I thought that was a decent deck, and the final turn was hype as hell.

Dexie posted:http://ygorganization.com/diamondisnotclash/ There's also this Comic Hand [Equip Spell Card] Equip only to an opponent’s monster while you control “Toon World”. (1) Gain control of the equipped monster. (2) It is treated as a Toon Monster, and can attack your opponent directly if they do not control a Toon Monster. (3) If there is no face-up “Toon World”, destroy this card. “Comic Hand” lets you seize control of your opponent’s strongest monster, and instantly turn the Duel around!! Also, the later introduced “Toon Kingdom” serves as extremely potent Toon support with its effect, but it’s also a Field Spell whose effect treats its name as Toon World! It becomes super easy to break out a combo that drops more and more “Toons” onto the field! Toons might be finally playable

Indeed Crop Circles is meant to use on brainwashed monsters, not your own. If anything the combo would worked better with Offerings to the Snake Deity or A-Cell Scatter Burst but even then is a pretty subpar play. Aliens aren't a meta deck but are incredibly fun as long you know what are you doing. On slower formats an abduction variant was tons of fun but very unreliable, the most viable variant is Gol'gar control. Using its effect to get plus by recycling traps and spells. It's been a while since I used my alien deck but the most popular options back then were Fiendish, Swords of Revealing Light and Safe Zone, I liked to mix things up using floodgates like Mask of Restriction, Anti-Spell Fragrance and Grave of the Super Ancient Organism but the deck lacked a reliable way to deal with XYZ.

More than another tuner, what the Aliens need is a reliable searcher. If Mush'ki were level 4 the consistency on the deck would get a huge boost. In general that is a huge crux for the archetype, great effects that are held up by its restrictions. Mother would be a beast with the reduction effect, Hypno would be absurd were not Gemini and so on. That being said, it would be pretty nice to get an XYZ. EDIT: That's why you bounce your own spells and traps and use the counters to clear backrow with its other effect or Telepath's. Ancient Code A Ruins is absurd with a Gol'gar on field Dark_Tzitzimine fucked around with this message at 19:02 on Apr 13, 2015 |

Cabinet posted:Gol'gar is really loving great if you manage to get it out early and have a good set up. Otherwise you're hosed. An early Gol'gar is nice but a good setup is more important. The attack reduction effect it gives Aliens a significative edge and Code A guarantees you will always have Aliens ready for battle. Truth is, the meta is just too fast for them. They need A-counters to thrive but is hard to see a monster last more than turn these days.

Zexal and Arc-V are their own thing entirely. However, before Jack and Crow were revealed, the idea was that the different summoning dimensions from Arc-V were homages to previous series and no the series themselves. Now all the bets are off.

While that video was an overkill, Sphere does have plenty of potential. Specially on today's meta where many decks can summon more than two monsters on the first turn. Burnin Abyss are utterly boned against it for example. EDIT: Copycat/Mimicat Normal Spell Card You can only activate 1 “Mimicat” per turn. (1) If you control “Toon World” and a Toon Monster: Target 1 card in your opponent’s Graveyard; if it is a monster, Special Summon it to your side of the field. If it is a Spell/Trap Card, Set it to your side of the field.
