Y'all are all wrong. The best archetypes are Shiranui, Shaddolls, Speedroids, Swind Switches, and Slunalights.  EDIT: Also Sfluffals. Vandar fucked around with this message at 14:46 on Jul 22, 2017 |

Pssst...Gem-Knights are my favorite archetype but I'm scared to admit it. I am terrified that Konami is going to be stupid and hit Brilliant Fusion one day.

That would be the smart move so OF COURSE they'd hit Brilliant instead and probably something like Garnet just to be dicks.

My issue with Cipher is that it just didn't need to exist. All of the other returning characters from past shows that appeared in Arc-V got to keep their old archetypes and themes. Giving Kite this brand new archetype didn't need to happen and I still wonder why they chose to do that. If they had made all of the Cipher stuff part of the Photon or Galaxy archetypes instead, they'd instantly be made better, simply because they'd be compatible with the older stuff. Not MUCH better, but they'd still be a great deal more usable than they are now.

drrockso20 posted:So I'm contemplating getting into this game again(already obtained one of the YGOpro clones to get some practice), what would be a good deck type to get into that isn't too complex, too expensive, and has a strong theme to it? Dinosaurs. You can get most of their main deck stuff in the newest structure deck (which is pretty cheap), and they're pretty easy to play with a surprising amount of depth depending on the build. They're pretty powerful too, if you decide to get further into the game and try to go meta with it. Plus, who doesn't want to run all over their enemies with a giant electrical T-Rex?

I am going through the list of equips on YGO Pro right now and it's insane. For more fun, try Mage Power if you have a batch of swords on the field already, Megamorph if you're behind in LP, Rainbow Veil to get rid of a monster's battle destruction immunity for a turn... There's so many stupid possibilities with this. This is the kind of stupid dumb poo poo that Noble Knights have needed for a long time. I love it.

So, there's a Legend Duelist 2 pack coming up in the OCG. NeoArkadia, one of the admins of The Organization, has his own set of forums, and he maintains a rumor thread there, where he posts rumors and leaks from trusted sources. I've been following it for a few years now, and I'd say 90% of what gets posted in that thread actually happens. In recent weeks, he's posted three sets of rumors about Legend Duelist 2 and the characters that are getting support in the pack. In the order he's posted them: quote:Claimed Focus for Duelist Pack: Legend Duelist 2 quote:Focus Characters for Legend Duelist 2 Include: quote:And now we have 3 different sources claiming the same information: So, three sets of rumors from three separate sources. At this point I'd say it's certain that LD2 will have support for Pegasus, Jesse Anderson, THE CHAZZ, and Weevil Underwood. The real fun comes in guessing what exactly is getting supported. Weevil played generic Insects, but he's most famous for the Ultimate Moth stuff. Pegasus played Toons, but those got a lot of support in recent years already. I'm thinking it might be support stuff for Relinquished/Thousand-Eyes Restrict? Jesse is Crystal Beasts, that's a give. Chazz is the most interesting though. One of the sources claim he's getting Ojama stuff, but another says the Level Up! is getting reprinted in the pack, which would hint at Armed Dragon support. Maybe both? Maybe Alpha's joke about Ojamarmed Dragon is coming true?

Hjalmar posted:Hitting common combo extenders (instant fusion, brilliant fusion, scapegoat, firewall dragon) would be a start, but players would find other ways to keep their plays going forever. As the resident Gem-Knight player, let me say 'no'. Hit Seraphinite, not Brilliant Fusion. Gem-Knights don't use it anyway, and the deck needs Brilliant Fusion to do anything.

MiddleOne posted:I'm like 99% sure they're not going to. And that's despite the worthless archetypes they've made decent so far through skills and/or selective releasing including Naturia and Ancient Gears ( Naturia and Ancient Gear's aren't bad in the real game though. Naturia can make plays and Ancient Gears have Chaos Giant Turbo. Crystal Beasts, as much as I love them, are just outdated and bad. They've had a lack of good legacy support and are too overly tied to their lore for Konami to do much with them. (They also never got all of their support in the TCG and got hosed over by the changes to Pendulum rules.  )

PMush Perfect posted:Unlimited Dark Hole? What the gently caress kind of format is going on in real Yu-Gi-Oh right now??? The same kind we've been in for years: 1) Pendulums go to extra when destroyed. 2) Most boss monsters have some kind of immunity. 3) Most monsters period either float or have an on-destruction effect or do something in the graveyard. Honestly I'm surprised it took this long to unlimit Dark Hole.

ZenMasterBullshit posted:So how are the new rules/LINK cards or whatever? I kinda dropped out of playing some time right after pendulum hit outside of a few video game entries and the Link cards/new Special Summon zone seems interesting but weird. Do pendulum summoned monsters bypass that mechanic or is that summoning method's gimmick just hosed? The Pendulum gimmick is kind of hosed. Pendulum Magicians are still a high tier deck, but that's because they have a million cards and ways to search and are just overall a super consistent deck. Links have been mostly lovely overall. Most of the meta decks during the Link era so far have largely ignored the mechanic. That being said, we recently got a bunch of really awesome Links via the Link VRAINS Pack, and there are some absolutely busted Link monsters already released. Firewall Dragon just got hit on the OCG's most recent banlist, and there's enough Links that can bounce monsters that Grinder Golem of all things has become incredibly meta. Honestly, the game is in a really weird place right now.

On one hand it's annoying that we got another Cyberse themed deck. I won't argue that. But on the other hand that's more product that they'll have to find a way to shoehorn into the TCG later. Some of the cards in the deck are actually pretty good for once, at that.

Biff Rockgroin posted:With all that out of the way, I want to make my friend a solid, usable deck so he can play with my group without getting depressed. He seems obsessed with decks based around big rear end beat sticks that do massive damage. At the same time he's told me both Dinosaurs and Monarchs suck (!?).  Dinosaurs don't suck. They've been in and out of the meta for the past year and are overall really strong.They're fairly cheap too, you can pick up three copies of their structure deck for 12 dollars a piece and put together something workable out of that. As far as a good "strong guy" deck goes (and I can't believe I'm going to say this given how much I've rallied against the deck in the past), give him a Skull Servant deck. It's simple and straightforward as heck, and most of it's cards should be pretty cheap. The whole strategy for the deck is 'send a bunch of dudes to the grave and then summon an 8k+ beatstick', so that kind of thing should be right up his alley. EDIT: Seriously though, dinosaurs have one of the biggest, baddest, easiest to summon beatsick boss monsters in the game. http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Ultimate_Conductor_Tyranno This guy is exactly what your friend wants.

Gonna give a special shout-out to Legacy of the Duelist for giving you a halfway decent starter deck AND enough extra cards starting out that you can build something significantly better with several different deck styles to choose from, AND not putting you up against crazy powerful duelists right from the start.

Blaze Dragon posted:You feeling nostalgic? Here, the new Yu-Gi-Oh! series is literally the first series again, but reanimated! Also we're errataing all the old cards so we don't have to think of new ones! Also no Extra Deck anymore. I mean, I wouldn't mind that first part, kind of. A remake of the Duel Monsters anime that's closer to the manga and cuts out all the ridiculous amounts of filler from the later half of the series would be nice.
