Quinton big train energy, and free lvl 9 Skill

[pastel lotus]

fake out

[hazy crow]

idk why but pre bulldozer, I always get dead draws on my infinitrack kek.

[sonic nimbus]

Y'all forgot that we literally have Droll in the game too

[pastel lotus]

droll in dl?

u sure?

was it a selection box card?

[sleek garnet]

Future circuit

[pastel lotus]

dl team actually putting alito's cards as level-ups

they didn't do the supreme king model of making them an p2p sd

girag's ace got milked but not alito's ace

if pick up box is not worth 15 gems a pull not going for them

[sonic nimbus]

Because Boxers are mid unfort

[white stirrup]

They really just need better Extra Deck Monsters in general

The Level 3 that banishes a Boxer is pretty useless considering none of them have Special Summon effects

The Rank 3 is bad

Nova Kaiser is pretty much just there to get a shortcut to Star Cestus

[pastel lotus]

https://www.deviantart.com/gamerdruid/art/Star-Cestus-Number-105-608697254

someone apparently loved star cestus enough to turn him into an mtg card... that's some real dedication right there

the card game portion of yugioh manga was partially inspired by mtg anyways

star cestus is at least capable of punching through timelord, bloom diva, chimerufflesia and the like whereas the upgraded form comet cestus can't

[mighty bramble]

I already got Alito’s Barian Skill

[pastel lotus]

[brave-eyes]

[vivid wave]

[fallen kestrel]

I hate that its restricted to turn 2 onwards

[pastel lotus]

will this nexr kc cup have new music?

[pastel lotus]

cross duels:ded

for real soon

[cold pollen]

Guys which deck should I try to obtain

Like upcoming nerfs and etc.

[cold pollen]

Op version of blue eyes twin burst dragon

[sleek garnet]

There's gonna be a banlist soon

Could hit literally anything

[quick axle]

There was technically the Worlds banlist, but the KC Cup is also upcoming, so that's another banlist onto the pile.

[fallen kestrel]

They are finally gonna kill raging pend

Yes I play raging pend and am happy its gonna be bad

[white stirrup]

Ban Odd Eyes
That way Raging will be nerfed enough

[quick axle]

We don't know for sure.

[weak bough]

ugh i hate these grinding events

[quick axle]

Tell me about it.

[weak bough]

i'm like 1/2 to getting number 105

raid duel are so fun

i just want to try out the battlemorph skill but can't for at least another day or two

[quick axle]

I was being facetious, which means, I agree with you.

[weak bough]

yeah i got that don't worry

i think mizar has my favourite barian battlemorph design

plus tachyon dragon looks cool

[dapper grotto]

I'm just here for the Galaxy support lmao.

[weak bough]

i cant wait for the tachyon dragon summoning animation

[sleek garnet]

I think i'll just save up my gems currently, trickstars can wait

Currently at 1.7k

And i now realized i completely skipped jet synchron when going in the blackwing box

Will have to dream ticket a second one down the line, i think

Tho i'll probably wait a bit for that, need to get tunings and i'm waiting for the half gem sale to include that box

[dapper grotto]

I'm at 6.6k. Been grinding my characters to dust lately.

That exp event was an absolute boon for levelling.

But it's gone now.

[sleek garnet]

Btw dally, if rush cards uses the same current gem system for their boxes, you think you would still play it?

[small fern]

best deck for trudge (besides meta)?
currently running a bastard trudge-nistro-beatdown

[fallen kestrel]

[white stirrup]

I use a Earth Warrior Synchro Deck to put out some Goyos through his Skill

[pastel lotus]

i made him run x-saber

anything earth on him makes sense

tetsu ushio

goyo guardian can run happy marriage for lol factor (assuming you were successful with your battle take)

still no [colossal fighter]

[vivid wave]

Colossal Fighter

Why most of Legend Rank (in my exp) are stall burn????

[sonic nimbus]

Mine's been a fuck ton of Dark Magician

and D-Heroes

[pastel lotus]

blame the lousy skills

what are the d-hero decks like?

[sonic nimbus]

Dystopia control w/generics

their turn 3 they recycle a mali

[pastel lotus]

oh

[sonic nimbus]

make Plasma

Edo skill sets a Poly to board and sends a Mali to grave during a turn you NS a D-Hero

2nd eff of skill is buff a D-Hero's atk by 200 until opp's ep

3rd eff recycles a banished mali, adds Plasma from deck/grave to hand and places 1 back from hand

[pastel lotus]

they don't even need to splash dark armed dragon

mine is focused on trinity kill

any 3 hero

at least hero has multiple branches for their plays compared to uninspired magician

literally so dull

[pastel lotus]

the earliest vid i can find that used dark armed dragon is a thunder dragon build since thunder dragon can recycle themselves via banishing so

since they react to any banishing not just ones generated by their own archetypal effects

but really any deck which put 3 darks in the graveyard can use dark armed dragon

you don't even need to keep your graveyard attribute pure

[sonic nimbus]

holy fuck i'm actually sick of DM

and can boot sector get tf out of my hand

[quick axle]

Are the unbans for DM live?

[sonic nimbus]

ye

TIL Tristan has lines for DM

[pastel lotus]

tries to remember if he has any ace animation...

https://tenor.com/view/no-let-me-think-nope-no-way-hmm-no-gif-22904160

good old dm era character

duza has 3d model

never gets an animation

like?

best justification i can think of would be... it never appeared in the movie

tag force only monster also don't get animation

chaos distill for surprise present

😈

[pastel lotus]

did the pick up box chaos archive release?

i get the feeling they do that so they don't have to give players 500 gems

[small fern]

buster gundil should get an animation (it was a boss in an earlier aigami event)

[pastel lotus]

yeah but no one except yugi and kaiba gets glow-ups so

[small fern]

meanwhile Yuma & Astral (Zexal Morph): [ace monster] I SPECIAL SUMMON A MONSTER!

[vivid wave]

Monster Eye

Level: 1
[ Fiend / Effect ]

ATK 250 / DEF 350

Effect

You can pay 1000 Life Points; add 1 "Polymerization" from your Graveyard to your hand.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[small fern]

my typing habits are bad

[pastel lotus]

ryo marufuji/jack atlas/kaito tenjo/reiji akaba all have 1 animation each

i consider them the "power" rivals

kaiba still gets multiple animations

like that is very obvious nepotism at play

shooting quazar also on the waiting list for an actual animation

[small fern]

indeede

[pastel lotus]

very few side characters get more than 1 animation

manjoume gets 2 because armed dragon lv 7 is awesome, lua gets 2 because life is beautiful, yubel gets 3 because you know duelist chronicles, yami marik gets 2 because 1 was an egyptian god

yuya could have 5 viewable animations if they added in starve venom

i personally also want mahad animation but that is the tail end of dsod so...

[dapper grotto]

Hmm...probably not. But maybe I'll spend gems on it for the first month that it's out just to try it.

If it's different currency, then yeah, maybe I'll spend my time on it more

[sonic nimbus]

i'm getting sick of vsing all these dms

opp has shitty connection too making it even worse

just do us both a favour and dc from connection oml

ayy there we go

[dapper grotto]

Same, I'm starting to see why they limited Rod.

DM flooding the Ranked ladder absolutely blows.

[sonic nimbus]

considering running 1 copy of Autorokket atm

current rokket list

[pastel lotus]

bm was more managable pre link revolution

then they had to give them another sd and its accompanying skill

shudders

[sleek garnet]

tbf i think it's mostly new toy syndrome since dm was very budget friendly and people are getting to reuse their stuff with the new list

also helps that it's inherently the most popular archetype of the franchise

[quick axle]

Alongside Blue-Eyes.

[pastel lotus]

does crimson blader actually cripple kaiju if he did defeat something by battle?

because it says your opponet cannot ns or ss level 5 or higher for the entire next turn to either side of the field?

it would completely disable timelord if it was able to destroy a negated one

[white stirrup]

Yeah sadly

[sleek garnet]

decided to get rid of all the skill rewards sitting on my life missions section

man there's a lot of them

[small fern]

why did the lamest DDD get the animation

[sleek garnet]

anime

[small fern]

dsod world intro: my name is _____!
dsod characters: it's you, ||Atem!||

[pastel lotus]

so did the pick up box release?

[fallen kestrel]

Not yet

[pastel lotus]

watch it not give free gems

only permanent fixtures do

[fallen kestrel]

I hope it does, I need more for flower cardians

[pastel lotus]

i am very split between stars of synchro and shining sunrise

[fallen kestrel]

Stars of synchro is the ice barrier one right?

[pastel lotus]

yeah

[fallen kestrel]

I opened a few packs of that for zero trish

[pastel lotus]

definately interested in crimson blader

basically if it kills a non-pendulum, it prevents your opponent from using traditional field rebuilding methods and its a generic level 8

[fallen kestrel]

Yeah its a decent card

[pastel lotus]

if i kill a hero, then they can't miracle fusion

[fallen kestrel]

If

Only problem with crimson is that u have to go second, and if u can attack over something with a lvl 8 synchro without being interrupted, u were likely in a winning position anyway

[pastel lotus]

anime

we all know anything that can activate in the main phase is better

that's why crackdown sees more use than goyo guardian

[fallen kestrel]

And mind control at that

[pastel lotus]

remember when brave neos was meta?

now no one needs it

kaito still have stuff to release

either zexal ii stuff or [neo galaxy eyes cipher dragon]

[vivid wave]

Neo Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon

Rank: 9
[ Dragon / Xyz / Effect ]

ATK 4500 / DEF 3000

Effect

3 Level 9 monsters
If this card has a "Cipher" card as Xyz Material, it gains this effect.
●Once per turn: You can detach up to 3 Xyz Materials from this card; monsters you control cannot attack your opponent directly for the rest of this turn, except this card, also for each Material detached, take control of 1 opponent's face-up monster until the End Phase, but while this effect is applied, they have their effects negated, their ATK's become 4500, also their names become "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon".

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[pastel lotus]

it don't target

it brainwashes everyone into thinking they are neo galaxy-eyes cipher dragon

[dapper grotto]

RIP, "until the end phase"

All that work for a temporary mind control.

And they can't even attack directly. They really screwed the pooch with Cipher

[pastel lotus]

don't matter if they don't kiteroid

goyo guardian lets keep but you have to battle

all anime stuff feels like they have to be fair to the opponent

[fallen kestrel]

Also

When we get Mizar (we wont) we will get Tachyon dragon (we wont) so we could get tachyon transmigration (we definitely wont)

[indigo grail]

Cardians?

[white stirrup]

Guess you could just tribute them for Galaxy Eyes...or just link em away

[fallen kestrel]

Flower cardians

[indigo grail]

Aren’t you unable to summon the really big ones?

[fallen kestrel]

Someone hit kog with them

[indigo grail]

Unless we somehow get Tokumatsu and skill things happen

[fallen kestrel]

I have all the ur/sr cards except for dracosack and swordsman, but he is selection box

[quick axle]

Why are you saying "we won't"?

We got Girag and Alito.

[fallen kestrel]

Ig

I mean more in the sense we wont for a while

[quick axle]

We also technically have Nash and Marin.

I think, from the Seven Barian Emperors, the only one that seems like a nothingburger is Dumon.

[fallen kestrel]

Just give Mizar or Yuri, either or

Predap or Tachyon

Because I have all the predap stuff in the game so far

[quick axle]

Vector, we'll pretty much get it, and Mizar, if they feel like it, even if Mizar was mostly a rival to Kite, not Yuma.

[fallen kestrel]

Defo Vector I reckon

[quick axle]

But probably under Ray Shadows, and having a Barian Morph.

[fallen kestrel]

Yh I wanna have Yuri, or at least some predap support at some point

[quick axle]

If the game doesn't go EoS, Yuri is kind of a guarantee.

[fallen kestrel]

We have all the other three

[quick axle]

Alongside Dennis, Rin, and perhaps Lulu, but Lulu was mostly a nothingburger.

[pastel lotus]

yuri will come only with antique gears

[white stirrup]

Can't wait to get a shitty Umbrall Horror Skill that does nothing remotely usefull

[fallen kestrel]

Just give scorpio or ambulo, maybe cobra

Also starving venom super poly target

[pastel lotus]

lowkey want antique gear gadget ngl

[quick axle]

I don''t think we're getting that Predaplant Fusion that needs 3 DARK Monsters as materials.

[Ancient Gear Gadget]

[vivid wave]

Ancient Gear Gadget

Level: 4
[ Machine / Effect ]

ATK 500 / DEF 2000

Effect

If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can declare 1 card type (Monster, Spell, or Trap); this turn, if your monster attacks, your opponent cannot activate Spell/Trap Cards or monster effects (whichever was declared) until the end of the Damage Step. Once per turn: You can declare 1 "Gadget" monster's card name; until the End Phase, this card's name becomes that name.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[quick axle]

Oh, we don't have this. I thought we had it, but no, I mistook it with another card.

[fallen kestrel]

[starving venom predower fusion] this thing Lightbox?

[vivid wave]

Starving Venom Predapower Fusion Dragon

Level: 10
[ Dragon / Fusion / Effect ]

ATK 3600 / DEF 2500

Effect

1 DARK Fusion Monster + 1 Fusion Monster
(This card is always treated as a "Predaplant" card.)
Once per turn, when a card or effect is activated (Quick Effect): You can Tribute 1 monster on either field with a Predator Counter, and if you do, negate the activation. If this Fusion Summoned card you control is sent to your GY by an opponent's card: You can target 1 DARK monster in your GY; Special Summon it. You can only use this effect of "Starving Venom Predapower Fusion Dragon" once per turn.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[quick axle]

[Predaplant Triphyoverutum]

[fallen kestrel]

Wait thats not the right one

[vivid wave]

Predaplant Triphyoverutum

Level: 9
[ Plant / Fusion / Effect ]

ATK 3000 / DEF 3000

Effect

3 DARK monsters on the field
Gains ATK equal to the total original ATK of all other monsters on the field with a Predator Counter. You can only use each of the following effects of "Predaplant Triphyoverutum" once per turn.
●When your opponent Special Summons a monster(s) from their Extra Deck while you control this Fusion Summoned card (Quick Effect): You can negate the Summon, and if you do, destroy that monster(s).
●If your opponent controls a monster with a Predator Counter(s): You can Special Summon this card from your GY in Defense Position.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[white stirrup]

Weird they never got a Contact Fusion like the XYZ stuff or a Xyz monster for them

[quick axle]

No, this one.

[fallen kestrel]

Yeah tri

Got them mixed up somehow

[pastel lotus]

does rum have any big pay off rn?

the only free chaos number is comet cestus

i can only remember 2 cxyz that exists

[fallen kestrel]

The giant hand one has been leaked

Its a board negate

[pastel lotus]

leaked where

cards can get leaked without ever seeing release

e.g. foolish burial goods

[fallen kestrel]

On dlm

[pastel lotus]

link?

is it more than one month old page?

[fallen kestrel]

https://www.duellinksmeta.com/articles/news/aug-2023/datamined-leaks-24

It gets updated periodically

Typically whenever an update occurs, more leaks follow

[hazy crow]

#DuelReplay #DuelLinks
https://duellinks.konami.net/att/057fce0c716071ee87cbd0ac9a6ac2a8bca775758f

Raging Users are not that hard to counter, it's the Orcust that needs more restriction because they can be on any deck.

[sleek garnet]

Orcust has 4 hits dude

Hoe do you even hit it harder

Limit cymbal skeleton?

[hazy crow]

4 hits but still consistent?

Maybe hit like Darklord? hahahahahaha

[pastel lotus]

any chances of releasing number 80 rhapsody in berserk

[sleek garnet]

Probably gonna be in the mini box

If we get one this month

[quick axle]

Doubtful. SEVENS World is upcoming, so I'd say that it's a main box.

[sleek garnet]

Still a chance for a box on the 31st

If the toon stuff is to go by

[pastel lotus]

don't forget castel

can links only be combo deck?

[drowsy holly]

I forgot how much fun Battlin' Boxers can be even if they're simple.

[pastel lotus]

all the times i fought yusaku that didn't use trickstar or gouki it felt like they just bounced from one monster to another

they have no big beater rn

when is event end date?

i won't get back to my pc until late at night

but i don't think i missed much interesting

[sleek garnet]

Mostly are, not all of them tho

There's some midrange control ones out there

Tri brigade, evil twin, evil eye, unchained, etc

Hell, even salad

[sonic nimbus]

Just Silverrokket and banish the Dark Rebellion lmao

[pastel lotus]

box leak out

[sleek garnet]

OH SHIT TENYIS

[quick axle]

Draco Berserker of the Tenyi is very probably Limited 1 on release.

[sleek garnet]

Tenyis are one of my favorite decks of all time

I'm so happy rn

[quick axle]

What can Tenyi do by itself? Can the available Yang Zing cards be used as a backbone?

Reminder that we don't have Chaofeng, or, perish the thought, Denglong.

[sleek garnet]

They could, the strongest one is baxia anyway

They probably wont tho

The tenyi link 4 and the counter trap seem to not be present though

A bit concerning

[quick axle]

So basically, we have the backbone for Swordsoul... if Swordsoul someday makes it to DL.

[karmic crescent]

Don't fully know the dl cardpool, but it seems tenyi is doing berserker pass atm

[quick axle]

But I honestly doubt it.

[sleek garnet]

Tenyis are more than a swordsoul engine

[karmic crescent]

Going second or for follow up they seem decent, but otherwise that's it

Baxia is in dl right?

[quick axle]

Yes.

[sleek garnet]

Yes

[karmic crescent]

So at least they have that going second

[sleek garnet]

They can probably just try to live until t3 so that they can clean up the board

Not that hard to do all things considered

Deck would be what

3 ashuna 3 vishuda 2-3 adhara

1 shatana

Maybe 1 mapura?

[karmic crescent]

You heavenly circle too

So it's likely there somewhere too

[sleek garnet]

Yea

[karmic crescent]

And then fill with traps

[sleek garnet]

2-3 circle

[karmic crescent]

Ig it's decent

[sleek garnet]

Fill the rest with staples

Mhm

Seems very competent

Considering the best deck in dl is d hero

And they do dystopia set 3 pass

[karmic crescent]

There's also vessel

[sleek garnet]

Oh yea right

Forgot vessel

Honestly

We probably can go to 24-26

Deck has a ton of consistency

The ed will be interesting though

[karmic crescent]

Do we have any skills that synergize?

[sleek garnet]

Lemme see

[karmic crescent]

I can't think of any

Besides generics

[sleek garnet]

Wyrms dont have any as far i'm aware

You can like

[quick axle]

There's no skills that help Wyrms ATM.

[sleek garnet]

3 effects to gain 3k lp

Makes living easier

[quick axle]

Why does it seem like Three Effects is getting nerfed?

[karmic crescent]

Them getting something for having non eff stuff would be cool

Skill wise

[sleek garnet]

We have like

Skills for vanilla pendulums

That came out for luster pendulum

I could see the same happening

[quick axle]

Also Monster Move to move monsters to other Main Monster Zones.

Probably irrelevant for Tenyi.

[sleek garnet]

It is

What's the ed being though

8 slots

We could do what

[quick axle]

Probably 2 Monk of the Tenyi, 1 of each ED Link Monster, 1 Draco Berserker, and then probably Baxia and something else.

[sleek garnet]

3 monk 2 shaman 2 berserk 1 draco berserk?

Playing 2 monks will be weird but i guess we do need the space

You prob use 2 shaman still though

Also considering draco masters over baxia if we're playing the deck pure

But yea like

Honestly hyped for this box

Wasnt expecting that

My wallet is in shambles tho

[quick axle]

Woof...

I can see why you're excited.

If only I could be... but I'm kinda tired of the P2W nature of the game, so... yeah...

https://duellinks.konami.net/att/05d189a8240b9801d6db8e0e10d3a4ac73eab4c370

[sleek garnet]

Oh yea also

[hazy crow]

The Heart of the cards saved me

[sleek garnet]

New dual avatar fusion for the 3 DA players out there

Good for them

[quick axle]

Not that it matters all that much, I think?

[sleek garnet]

Deck is still unplayable, yes

WAIT

[hazy crow]

Dual Avatar is somewhat meh

[sleek garnet]

WE HAVE YAZI

I FORGOT

[quick axle]

Yes, we had Yazi since forever.

First we got Baxia, then we got Yazi.

[sleek garnet]

Also something funny

The box is called world of barian

[karmic crescent]

Can we even make yazi?

[sleek garnet]

With a total of 2 barian cards on it

[sleek garnet]

No : )

Unless we want to cope on the main deck yangs

Or level alteration skills

[quick axle]

And no Swordsoul to summon Level 8 Synchros with ease.

But we won't get that for a very long time.

[sleek garnet]

Oh yea speaking of

How many decks can i get away with putting 3 vishuda 1 monk into?

Honestly pretty good as a staple

Wait

WAIT

SQUEAK KNIGHT

OH NO

OH NOOOOOOOOO

[quick axle]

Sqeuak Knight?

[sleek garnet]

Tldr, the good target for sublimation knight

[quick axle]

[Squeak Knight]

[sleek garnet]

So salamandra pile got buffed

[vivid wave]

Steam Knight - Hamburk

Level: 8
[ Warrior / Normal ]

ATK 2500 / DEF 200

Effect

One of the knights, they are equipped with "BFS Armor", which is made of a dense steel carefully refined at the factory, and "Foil-Packer", a special mechanism that can be converted into various weapons depending on the state of combat, thanks to it being linked with the highly analytical "Coc-OS". Although "Hamburk" is equipped with the usual suite of equipment, they are incredibly popular thanks to their combat style being extremely high calorie. His power is further enhanced by the blessings of the goddess "Madera".

F/L Status: Unreleased (TCG), Unlimited (OCG)

[pastel lotus]

[vivid wave]

Squeaknight

Level: 1
[ Warrior / Union / Effect ]

ATK 500 / DEF 500

Effect

If this card is Special Summoned: You can activate this effect; treat this card as a Tuner this turn, also you can only Special Summon once from the Extra Deck for the rest of this turn. Once per turn, you can either: Target 1 face-up monster you control; equip this card to that target, OR: Unequip this card and Special Summon it. If the equipped monster would be destroyed by battle or card effect, destroy this card instead.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[quick axle]

That drawback to become a tuner is rather steep.

[sleek garnet]

Oh no

You never use that

[hazy crow]

Whats with Parthian Shot? are we getting MP2????

[quick axle]

It will probably get changed for DL.

[sleek garnet]

The important part its that it's an union

So you can sublimation to equip it from deck

And activate squeak to summon itself

[hazy crow]

Why is the new box looks like Super Mini??

[sleek garnet]

What do you mean?

[hazy crow]

It feels like fewer cards, i dunno hahaha

[sleek garnet]

This is a partial leak

We dont have everything yet

[hazy crow]

Oh I see, I thought "that was it" mb mb

[quick axle]

Any in-game news, Choccy?

[hazy crow]

Sextet Summon kek, are we getting more Zefra cards? Its faster on their archetype to fulfill it

[sleek garnet]

Nothing

No announcement for the box either

Probably gonna be in the 31st tho

[quick axle]

https://www.duellinksmeta.com/articles/news/august-2023/datamined-leaks-29

Leak is more complete now.

Only thing missing here are the reprints.

[sleek garnet]

I had saved up a grand total of 2000 gems

God damnit

[hazy crow]

I don't think I'll pull that much for this box. I'll just get Barian, Castel and maybe Dual avatar

or just a handul of Tenyi for my Yang Zing

[pastel lotus]

i am just glad alito didn't get the supreme king treatment

[sleek garnet]

It's honestly funny that lunalight didnt at least get an unhit on the banlist

[pastel lotus]

[v salamander]

[vivid wave]

V Salamander

Level: 4
[ Spellcaster / Effect ]

ATK 1500 / DEF 1300

Effect

When this card is Normal Summoned: You can target 1 "Utopia" monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon that target. You can target 1 "Number C39: Utopia Ray V" you control; equip this monster you control to that target. Once per turn, while this card is equipped to a monster: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from the equipped monster; negate the equipped monster's effects (even after this card leaves the field or the monster becomes unaffected by card effects), and if you do, destroy all monsters your opponent controls, and if you do that, inflict 1000 damage to your opponent for each monster destroyed by this effect.

i dont have to say

at least its not because of the anime

[hazy crow]

[utopia ray v]

[vivid wave]

Number C39: Utopia Ray V

Rank: 5
[ Warrior / Xyz / Effect ]

[sonic nimbus]

was about to lose to this Thundra pile but the guy lost to time limit lmao

they were popping off hard

[sonic nimbus]

holy shit just fuck off with DM already

I'm legitimately sick of it

[fallen kestrel]

Where levianeer

[sonic nimbus]

is levi still limit 3?

[fallen kestrel]

Yeah

Normally people dont play Beatrice

Wtf, tenyis have been datamined

Wait me dumb, its just been announced in dl

Forgot the dlm page is leaks and updates

Also limited barians force or whatever its called is broken

Any rank 4 is leo utopia ray

A 5500 atk negate

[white stirrup]

Neat that we get new Toon stuff finally

[sonic nimbus]

YEEEEEEEAH BOY

[fallen kestrel]

Yeah, the mind control is gonna be cool

Also isnt the new bls the one from maze of memories?

[dapper grotto]

When the World is Barian- as in Barren of Barians.

Definitely hoping Toons do well, or at least will be fun.

here's the rank up game replay

Tracer eff not popping Boot Sector almost cost me the game but my opponent failed to read Rapid Trigger

[quick axle]

Maybe you should ask for Top Rung role.

[sonic nimbus]

how do I do that

[quick axle]

I think you need to ask a mod, IIRC?

[sonic nimbus]

hm

@full spade henlo fren sorry for ping but can i habe top rung role pls and thank

[quick axle]

Context.

[pastel lotus]

your approval fills me with shame

no toon briefcase

[sleek garnet]

Bro

How dare konami release 2 of my favorite archetypes back to back, one of them immediately after a half gem sale, and expect me to still be able to have gems

This is so fucked up

[dapper grotto]

Glad Castel is finally coming to DL though, gonna go in for at least one.

[fallen kestrel]

Im probs just gonna open the box for red hand and the barian rum

Maybe castel if its way better than sin

[dapper grotto]

It is. 🙂

Well, in certain aspects.

It's great removal, but not a beefy boi to be so.

[quick axle]

The thing that Castel has over Malevolent Sin is that, instead of banishing a card until the next Standby Phase, it returns to the Deck for two Xyz materials.

[sonic nimbus]

and it's any card as well iirc

[quick axle]

Castel was even banned for a while... until power creep decided that the effect was alright for the metagame.

[sonic nimbus]

was it

?

idr castel ever being banned

ur thinking of Exciton Knight

[quick axle]

Huh...

I dunno why I thought of Castel getting banned.

I know Exciton Knight was banned.

Okay, I had my memories mixed up somehow.

[small fern]

i thought odd-eyes would be worse sometimes

literally has a "i win" button against most decks

[sonic nimbus]

i love resolving silverrokket eff into odd-eyes lmao

[fallen kestrel]

To be honest, odd eyes is so broken, but its just dead to play

The only variation it has is when it uses synchros and which r4 they summon alongside Volo

[sleek garnet]

LET ME OUT

LET ME OOOOOOOOUT

[fallen kestrel]

?

[sleek garnet]

Tea burn ptsd

Nothing major

[quick axle]

Oh, dear... for me the Tea PTSD is Duel, standby! Cyber Angel.

wait it adds what

[pastel lotus]

[soul of light and darkness]

[vivid wave]

Soul of Purity and Light

Level: 6
[ Fairy / Effect ]

ATK 2000 / DEF 1800

Effect

This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned by removing from play 2 LIGHT monsters in your Graveyard. All monsters your opponent controls lose 300 ATK during their Battle Phase only.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[pastel lotus]

yeah...

yugi never stops getting new skills

[sleek garnet]

This is the soul of light and darkness

[midnight fable]

ah ok, I'll send that list to MBT's post

[quick axle]

Gaia and Kuriboh were used to Ritual Summon BLS in the anime against Mai.

[midnight fable]

yup

[sleek garnet]

You know

It's funny

They havent nerfed the original toon world skill

You could very realistically run comic hand in a deck that doesnt need its skill slot

As for toons themselves, i was thinking of maybe this?

Maybe could cut kingdom?

Oh yea btw

You could maybe run 2 toon harpie so that you can overlay them from diamond crab king

Hmm

Crackdown probably sucks here

Too little backrow space

Maybe play a 3rd bls

Anyway

I realized what's the best way to play tenyis

It's fucking raging pend

[quick axle]

For realsies?

[sleek garnet]

Yea

You just run like

3 vishuda 1 adhara 2 ashuna

I hate the fucking game lmfao

Briefcase is a cute turn 1 play

[sonic nimbus]

Draco Berserker probably good in Rokket

I think it takes the slot of Scarlight in my build

[small fern]

only 1 toon harpie

[sleek garnet]

It's there as a name for page flip

I dont feel like you need more

[small fern]

o aight

[sleek garnet]

Anyway

I have decided to not open the new box

I'm better than that

My 2.3k gems will remain in my wallet

[weak bough]

i hope konami won't wait until all the barians are out to give us nash and marin

[sleek garnet]

The abyss splash structure deck

[sonic nimbus]

I vsd a Rio on my KoG climb that was using Sharks but also the skill to morph 2 lvl 4 fishes into 2 level 4 Winged beasts and made em level 5 for Crystalzero Lancer control

Thought that build was cool

[sleek garnet]

[sonic nimbus]

Smth like that ye

[earnest shuttle]

Is it just me or did the duel links selection boxes disseapear

[quick axle]

They do.

They're time gated.

For the purpose of FOMO.

If you missed them, you need to wait until they become available again at some other point.

[sleek garnet]

Hello

I am mister stupid

I forgot terraforming was in the game

And didnt add it to my decklist

[mighty bramble]

The new cards they’re adding are really nutty

[pastel lotus]

okay hope ray v seems really underwhelming since it hard needs a rank-up magic to bring out and even with the right material all it does is a beawd-esque pop that happens to burn

plus the lightning was a couple of boxes ago

[pastel lotus]

numbers hunter makes for cute instant removal+numbers floodgate against alito

since he uses numbers and the lv 40 deck doesn't pack lead yoke

[pastel lotus]

is ryu okami bad?

it literally gives them a burial of their choice from the extra deck

[small fern]

for that same reason, crush card should be introduced

[hazy crow]

i'm so close

[quick axle]

And yet so far.

[weak bough]

1.4 million points away

[dapper grotto]

💀

The shop is bugged.

No new box for us.

[sleek garnet]

Pick up box is out

30 packs, 50 gems each, no limit as to how many you can buy

Which means that if you want a play set of everything that would cost you 4.5k gems

Honestly, not bad

[quick axle]

Time limit for that?

[sleek garnet]

until september 27th

[scenic grove]

Except it’s not that good of a box

[sleek garnet]

draco berserker bundle

pretty much everything i need

nice

[scenic grove]

Sadly

[sleek garnet]

honestly

if you're a brand new player

you can open it once for giant hand and roach

and be pretty satisfied

[scenic grove]

Yeah was thinking maybe get the giant hand

[sleek garnet]

maybe i should open for the bls stuff

only need like what, 1 super soldier?

[dapper grotto]

Yeah, pretty much

Do people even play vanilla BLS in the deck?

[sleek garnet]

nice pulls

[sleek garnet]

no

[sleek garnet]

OH SHIT

SINCE WHEN COULD YOU USE THE JP VOICELINES IN THE STEAM VERSION?

[mighty bramble]

evil laughter

[white stirrup]

Got him in my Teny Berserker Pack lol

Together with the Yellow Dragon from them

[robust void]

wow this new set is pretty..... lame?

[sleek garnet]

It depends entirely if you like playing tenyis or toons

[robust void]

well,

I'm tempted to pull for castel because it's a legacy classic. is it not outdated yet

[fallen kestrel]

Its basically malevolent sin but bit better

[white stirrup]

Teny are fun
Just wish the Link 1 would swap Places with their SR Link 2 or 3

[dapper grotto]

Vishuda gonna be great in DM. UwU

[small fern]

gonna bet that next pack after sevens/rush is Yugioh-R (DM expansion),

but NOT anything gallop did

[quick axle]

Or the game goes EoS if the SEVENS stuff doesn't save them-

[small fern]

ah right, cross duel's imminently gone

[karmic crescent]

One day of playing the game again, and i already find bugs

How lovely

Konami programmed vishuda wrong

It can't return trap monsters if they're chained

(The ones that stay traps)

[small venture]

what's a good archetype that can get me multiple level 4 monsters?

[white stirrup]

Tellarknights
Sharks

[pastel lotus]

still 50 gems

no box chips or ex orbs attached

like...

that's a bad deal

[pastel lotus]

difference being one is permanent?

honestly if it becomes common i will most certainly run 2 of poisonous wind

[pastel lotus]

forgot raid raptors

but it may not be a beginner accessible archetype

to duel a duelist you must unlock the world they are in and do enough stage missions iirc

i think this goes for all post-dm worlds

[pastel lotus]

castel not quick effect

being another bom-type of effect will probably contribute to its usability anyways

also got my copy within 10 pulls

[pastel lotus]

the real reason why no one uses setuppercut:

its a reskinned hero signal

game is too fast to be running something that activates after battle

[pastel lotus]

[limited barian's force]

[vivid wave]

Rank-Up-Magic Limited Barian's Force

Effect

Target 1 Rank 4 Xyz Monster you control; Special Summon from your Extra Deck, 1 "Number C" monster that is 1 Rank higher than that monster you control, by using it as the Xyz Material. (This Special Summon is treated as an Xyz Summon. Xyz Materials attached to that target also become Xyz Materials on the Summoned monster.)

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[pastel lotus]

looks interesting

don't need to type or attribute match

[pastel lotus]

only 3 cno. numbers exist that can be ss'd with this none of them getable from prior boxes/events

[pastel lotus]

using alito's anime accurate cards, i quickly find out a problem with his archetype is that they have no search power or actually have disruption that isn't in battle phase

only monster that provides floating is nova kaiser

[small fern]

personally for sharks, i have better success with gagaga/gogogo/dododo/zubaba, but that may be me being biased due to not having the good shark cards

[quick axle]

"Come on in! Zubababancho Gagagacoat!"

Sorry, I tend to get reminded of it.

[small fern]

still laughed when zexal said "I special summon a monster!" leading up to an ace monster animatio

[dapper grotto]

Makes me wonder if they'll bring the VA back to do those lines, but it would probably be a package deal along with some other anime game Konami will do.

[small fern]

ye

also wish yami yugi and seto kaiba get revamped lategame portal decks, because they're top pushover for legendary duelist status

also aigami got evilswarm cuz he can't use skills

[pastel lotus]

both aigami and sera are just conduits for zexal-era decks

she's pure and cosmic so she uses constellar and he's corrupted so he uses verz

aigami released right before zexal world

[pastel lotus]

playing ranked gold

don't see a single serena

[fallen kestrel]

Ranked gold is

50% meta

49% 30 card 1 off piles

1% high class cooking

[dapper grotto]

Plat too. But since you can't derank, you can cook as much as you like.

[fallen kestrel]

I hit plat for first time in august

Having a meta deck in gold is kinda

My wl ratio in the last month is probs stupid

[pastel lotus]

jolt counter kind of neat since its an omni-negate (though only in battle phase)

like its worthwhile to pack at least 1 in, it beats mirror force

i just realize alito's warriors are basically counterfairies but without the rewards

[pastel lotus]

also did a search for fire warriors levels 5-10 and the results were very... grim

pretty much no main deck beaters exists for them except igknight stuff

[blue flame swordman] is free revival if gets poped

[vivid wave]

Blue Flame Swordsman

Level: 4
[ Warrior / Effect ]

ATK 1800 / DEF 1600

Effect

Once per turn, during either player's Battle Phase: You can target 1 other Warrior-Type monster you control; this card loses exactly 600 ATK, and if it does, that monster gains 600 ATK. When this card you control is destroyed by your opponent's card (by battle or card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: You can banish this card from your Graveyard, then target 1 FIRE Warrior-Type monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon that target.

cope

[sonic nimbus]

They literally confirmed it

[small fern]

YGO R when

[sleek garnet]

I think i found a use for my invoked stuff

i tested it on ladder, it sucks ass

[quick axle]

Wait.... how did that situation happened?

[small fern]

forgor actually

i wanna say it was shooting star fear, but it was actually impossible because shooting star got fiend mirror'd

[pastel lotus]

is the chaos upgrade to hand worth running?

[fallen kestrel]

Depends

You can either run the new r5 hand or leo utopia ray, as ray is effectively two monster negates

[sleek garnet]

No

[white stirrup]

Wish the CNumbers got Animations too
Seeing as Yusei has like 3...

Using that one skill with him is so annoying cause you gotta watch all 3 lol

[brisk pawn]

I use sharks to summon utopia

I’m going to fix up a Yuma type deck for utopia next

[pastel lotus]

[leo utopia ray]

[vivid wave]

Ultimate Leo Utopia Ray

Rank: 5
[ Warrior / Xyz / Effect ]

ATK 2500 / DEF 2000

Effect

3 Level 5 monsters
(This card is always treated as "Number C39: Utopia Ray".)
Once per turn: You can detach 1 material from this card; equip 1 "ZW -" monster from your Deck or Extra Deck to this card as if it were equipped by that monster's effect. This effect's activation and effect cannot be negated. Once per turn, while this card is equipped with a "ZW -" Monster Card (Quick Effect): You can target 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls; negate its effects, and if you do, halve its ATK.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[pastel lotus]

oh it does treat itself as a chaos number

[fallen kestrel]

No paira is needed

To be fair all it has to do is give a hand that summons a rank 4

Could always dig for 3rd pickup

Which I probably will

[fallen kestrel]

-1 of something for salamander cos I forgor btw

[sleek garnet]

3 dwarf but no dodododraw?

[fallen kestrel]

Maybe I meed to go and read more cards

3 onomato monster thing
2 Coat
3 Dwarf
1-2 ZW monsters
0-1 V salamander
1 Sage
1-2 Dodododraw
2 pickup
1 Barian RUM

So thats 14-17 + staples

[sleek garnet]

I think i'd play roach over dark rebellion in the ed

[fallen kestrel]

[sleek garnet]

UTL kinda fills in that niche already

[fallen kestrel]

Ig

Also the skill can set the rum from grave I remembered, cos I read something for once

Can also run ZW pegasus btw for a second monster negate on UTL

[sleek garnet]

Thoughts on Utopa ray V?

[fallen kestrel]

Needs v salamander

Also, if have lance copies, run them

[sleek garnet]

Never liked lance in oño

Negating your own ZWs felt bad

[fallen kestrel]

If u get BOMed then they are gone tho

And sadly bom is like the most used staple ever

[sleek garnet]

I guess

Ngl

I wonder if toons will get hit on the kc cup banlist?

[fallen kestrel]

Depends to be honest

[sleek garnet]

Kinda like what happened to synchron

[fallen kestrel]

My guess is

Raging pend nerf (I hope)
Vishuda or something might go to 3
New utopia skill nerf

Bls and toon are like

Bls has zero t1

So it has to run obnoxious levels of backrow

Toons actually have good traps and backrow now

[sleek garnet]

Bls also has the issue of not acually having the space for said backrow

[fallen kestrel]

Toons have a mind control, a trap that bounces monsters (I think)

Also bookmark is consistency boost to the sun

And toon bls means the deck does something

[sleek garnet]

It spins

But yea like

Toons are kinda uninteractive by design

Either they kill you or they dont

Wouldnt be surprised if they did like

Hit toon dm and bookmark/pageflip

Or maybe kingdom

[fallen kestrel]

Wait

I just remembered they direct attack

Tenyi and bls both just need one of their core cards at 3 to stop idp and other lim3 trap spam

Well

Maybe not bls because, well they do nothing t1 without it

I dont know how to balance anything to be honest

[sleek garnet]

Tenyi currently feels fine

Their t1 is berserker pass

It honestly feels wild how low ceiling most of the decks are

Rokket is like, the only exception since speedroid got the axe

[fallen kestrel]

Raging pend isnt real to you ig

[sleek garnet]

Hot take

[fallen kestrel]

[sleek garnet]

Raging pend needed to exist as it is for odd eyes to even function

Let alone be viable

[fallen kestrel]

Yeah

I agree with that

[sleek garnet]

Like

Maybe lock your main deck to pends

But otherwise the skill is completely fine in my book

[fallen kestrel]

But said skill means they end on volo + rank 4 + any backrow

And thats just pure

[sleek garnet]

Tbh let them

That means their followup is non existant

[fallen kestrel]

Well

Now that I think about it

How tf is rokket not nerfed

[sleek garnet]

Because it's conveniently always been considered as the 3rd deck of the format

[fallen kestrel]

Also, Idek what dhero like does

[sleek garnet]

Any destiny hero is a 1 card dystopia

Based on that

You can dedicate half of your deck to backrow

And that's like, good on its own

[fallen kestrel]

Woah another deck that just sits at 30 card builds with way too many staples and a playset of idp

[sleek garnet]

The funniest hit would be to remove the 300 atk gain from the skill but that would make the brand new main box UR useless, wouldnt want that

If konami touches the deck at all, they'll probably put a name to 3 and call it a day

[fallen kestrel]

Just get rid of the third malicious

Also, new kc cup soon

Also, onomat can just run rota

Like the new version

[sleek garnet]

Nah the 3rd mali is what makes the deck fun, keep it in

[fallen kestrel]

Drill to 3

[sleek garnet]

Man

You know what would be fucked up?

[fallen kestrel]

What

[sleek garnet]

Boxes mix the rush and tcg card pool

[fallen kestrel]

Nope

Plez

Never

Honestly

[sleek garnet]

The box will good tcg cards will always never have good rush cards

The good rush boxes would never include useful tcg cards

[fallen kestrel]

My guess is they alternate releases

But increase release numbers slightly

[sleek garnet]

Also the gate drop reactions were funny

You could pinpoint exactly who played rush and who didnt based on that

[fallen kestrel]

Speaking of gate

This alito event has trolled me

I have 2 of import and bento, 6 cestus

[sleek garnet]

Rough

I pulled like

20 imports and 2 cestus

[fallen kestrel]

All regular finish too, not even a glossy

[sleek garnet]

Ngl

Kinda wish the barianmorph skill was better

I dont think it needed the turn 2 restriction

[fallen kestrel]

It rlly didnt

Doesnt matter though, any xyz deck spits out a double monster negate with new utop skill

Double because zw pegasus exists btw

[sleek garnet]

Yea

Kinda funny how we have no main deck restrictions other than you need to run a brick

[fallen kestrel]

What do u mean

If u dont wanna run a brick just run ed zw for one negate and 5500 atk

[sleek garnet]

The brick is the rank up magic

[fallen kestrel]

Not rlly, if u draw it u just have to summon utopia like when it would be in deck no?

[sleek garnet]

Yea

That's what a brick means

You dont want to draw it but you can still do what you want even if you do draw it

[fallen kestrel]

Garnet is it does nothing if you draw it?

Have I used wrong terminology this whole time

[sleek garnet]

Yes

[fallen kestrel]

So I was only wrong in one term

[sleek garnet]

https://www.duellinksmeta.com/top-decks/king-of-games/september-2023/world-chalice/youshallpass/ZJWxK

Holy shit

[fallen kestrel]

But yeah, nerf meta

[fallen kestrel]

Yeah

Wait

I have three draconnets

[sleek garnet]

I do need a deck to climb this month

[fallen kestrel]

And the whole ed

[sleek garnet]

I need to get a second dad

[fallen kestrel]

There was a half second where I forgot dad stands for dark armed dragon

[sleek garnet]

I mean

I already have 2 dads, so

[fallen kestrel]

Wicked

[sleek garnet]

https://www.duellinksmeta.com/top-decks/spicy-win-streaks/august-2023/cubic/the-svet/LfC0h

0 gems cost pog

[fallen kestrel]

Wow^3

[sleek garnet]

But yea ngl

I want to kog this month but have no idea what to play

My currently best stuff is like

Pure orcust and elemental hero

[fallen kestrel]

Depends to be honest

Orcust has been nerfed so much I would be amazed if it happens again

Just need more AIMs or fortresses now

[sleek garnet]

I have like

2 AIM 1 each of frame and fort

0 summoner monks sadly

[fallen kestrel]

2 AIM 1 Fort plus 2 scrap

[sleek garnet]

Yea

All things considered it's not even bad

[fallen kestrel]

Also

Didnt everyone say “roids isnt dead”

[sleek garnet]

You can kog with it

Not much else though

[fallen kestrel]

What does this mean though

This hot kog

[sleek garnet]

Would you consider ursarctic to be good?

[fallen kestrel]

Depends to be honest

[sleek garnet]

Roids are around that level

Btw

One thing i'm very hopeful towards

Is that rush is gonna be insanely cheap

[fallen kestrel]

[sleek garnet]

All ace mons seem to be f2p

[sleek garnet]

Like

Konami knows that people wont play caveman ygo if it cost 20k gems to do so

And like

Depending on what the first box brings

There's a chance you could make a kog worthy deck with 0 gems

(That's not as bad as cubics)

[fallen kestrel]

[sleek garnet]

But yea like

The reason i say this is

The level 1 skills adds the cards from deck to hand

Not outside the deck

[fallen kestrel]

I dont know anything about rush

Like at all

Except that the card design & layout is way better

[pastel lotus]

then watch this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDGHpFcI8Hc

rush duels will already feel different w/o bom or tth

how prevalent are graveyard effects tho?

most soulful

idk why i had more than 20 ranked duels with alito all no skill drops

like this skill grind is still awful 6 years later

[pastel lotus]

burning knucklers (the original set) kind of bad no graveyard utility no searching

arc-v gen already solved the first problem

amount of worthwhile fire warriors in the game are only slightly less sparse than the total amount of light insects

The clutch OMG

[sleek garnet]

Man

I played vs dino in ranked

And i forgot what ultimate tyranno's artwork looked like

So i thought they summoned UCT and almost had a heart attack

[sleek garnet]

25 days remaining

To save the gems or to build bls

[pastel lotus]

how is chaos soldier being more meta than nekroz

[dapper grotto]

They aren't. Going first is a roll of a dice with a beat stick and hopefully backrow you drew into.

Even going 2nd is pretty dependent on whether they have interruption or not

But it's okay. I'm in plat, so I can play it as much as I want.

[fallen kestrel]

Its not, bls is just new which means hype

[pastel lotus]

they end up with 3 3000s

they even have an omninegate for anything that targets them

my usual board breaker oath of companionship falls flat because they didn't have extra deck monsters

remember when gaia was the skill deck to play? (although that tried to end on their fusion)

[super soldier's shield]

[vivid wave]

Super Soldier Shield

Effect

When a Spell/Trap Card, or monster effect, is activated that targets a monster(s) on the field, while you control a "Black Luster Soldier" monster: Negate the activation, and if you do, destroy that card. If this card is in your Graveyard: You can remove 1 Spell Counter from your side of the field; Set this card, but banish it when it leaves the field.

[pastel lotus]

not to mention this skill puts 7 cards in the graveyard

if only we knew during chaotic compliance that chaos soldier was going to be the s-hit it is today

[dapper grotto]

It doesn't matter anyway since they reprinted BLS in the Pickup Box.

And way easier to get there.

[sleek garnet]

You know what's funny?

Duel links has a built in netdecking tool in game, it's literally how dlm gets all their kog lists in the top decks section

But people never use it, much less know that it exists

[small fern]

kaiba deck
almost exclusively yugi and joey cards

thanks vagabond

i wish kaiba had more in-theme 2050-2950 ATK monsters
..that aren't just dragons

[white stirrup]

Can't have Yugioh without shoving in Dragons everywhere

[small fern]

yop

[fallen kestrel]

Just looked at some new utopia vids and whatnot, I now know wtf it does, which is a lot

[small fern]

i still don't know wtf it does

it can
rank up
rank down
barian rank up
astral rank up
call forth ZW
use utopia combo spells

[fallen kestrel]

Baaically

If ur deck can summon a rank 4 consistently

Free negate

Sadly paira is kinda required to play it properly

[small fern]

oh and to add insult to no injuries, it recieves the existence nerf as if it were summoned by random xyz from the hand

[fallen kestrel]

Existence nerf?

16000

[small fern]

if it utopia used both material, attacking it utopia causes utopia to die of skill issue

[fallen kestrel]

What is “it”

[small fern]

forgor

[fallen kestrel]

[small fern]

yop

[white stirrup]

Kinda ridicioules it just wofks on any Rank 4

Like it's Utopia

Just make it specific for it sheesh

[small fern]

oooo wait, y'all are speaking about a rank 5 C39

[weak bough]

i assume utopia ray v

[pastel lotus]

quick-play RUM is just xyz exclusive mask change

limited barian's force can only change rank 4s into rank 5s which is true to its name "limited" in output options

dzw is personally my favorite zw but i haven't figured how i can cram in my not currently used zw deck

i can't even figure out if one for one should be used to access it early

[chimera clad]

[vivid wave]

DZW - Chimera Clad

Level: 1
[ Fiend / Effect ]

ATK 0 / DEF 0

Effect

You can target 1 "Number C39" monster you control; equip this monster from your hand or your side of the field to that target. The equipped monster cannot be destroyed by battle. At the end of the Damage Step, when the equipped monster attacks an opponent's monster, but the opponent's monster was not destroyed by the battle: You can make the opponent's monster's ATK 0 (even after this card leaves the field or the monster becomes unaffected by card effects), and if you do, the equipped monster can make a second attack on the same monster in a row.

[pastel lotus]

ok it can be equip even on the field

it grants a yubel-like effect of not being able to be destroyed by battle

it doesn't grant actual stat boosts

[sonic nimbus]

i uploaded my Rokket list to Dkayed's server and it got put up on DLM

[sleek garnet]

So?

[sonic nimbus]

majority of their kog lists come from dkayed's server

[sleek garnet]

Not all of them thought

[pastel lotus]

i mean dlm was literally made by decayed

cxyz dark fairy cheer girl in a main box soon i hope

https://youtube.com/watch?v=OmeTIyFOLh4

archive clip to see how moonlights performed pre-character release

any entirely dark deck can make use of dad but splashing it seem like including a sometimes useful brick

even mekklord and exodia pieces can be fodder for it

imagine 3 any kind of yubel, montage dragon and dark armed dragon in your hand, pitch the first 3 to do montage then do dark armed

[sleek garnet]

I couldnt resist

[pastel lotus]

boring cup tonight

i almost never to try to get above dv 15

the only time i ever got to 2nd stage was when invoked meta

[pastel lotus]

speedroid could be xyz worthy with [resonance device]

[vivid wave]

Resonance Device

Effect

Target 2 face-up monsters you control with the same Type and Attribute; change one of their Levels to the current Level of the other, until the End Phase.
