Parody’s are the best

#

Never would have imagined Black Luster Soldier, in a Jersey

#

bean soljersy has some of the most powerful art of any yugioh card

#

look at him

dusk sleet
#

Oh yeah new parody card of Graceful Charity

#

CORN

dusk sleet
#

Part of me wants to make an Aqua-monster deck, but something that's different from the various Bubble Era stuff and its offshoots

#

I guess, Aqua Monsters that are actually WATER attribute

lusty venture
dusk sleet
#

Sure!

lusty venture
#

well played

dusk sleet
#

Thanks!

lusty venture
#

we need the last of the assistant fusions so badly

dusk sleet
#

Liking Skysaviors... though, admittedly I feel like having to work with putting anything to the bottom of the deck is risky playing

#

Yep!

dusk sleet
#

Oh holy crap we got news

#

bout time we get heroes! finally!

dusk sleet

YESSSSSS

flame wingman in rush is

#

not what i expected

dusk sleet
#

My dreams are becoming true!

winter ridge
stuck summit
#

we can finally live in a society where flame wingman sees competitive play

valid cave
#

the only way flame wingman is good in rush is if it has hecka support that explicitly demands you play it

tardy mica
#

dusk sleet
#

Considering how most effect damage being super big is either Wicked Shadow Dark Lurker, or Magic Cylinder, I'm willing to believe it's got what it takes

stuck summit
dusk sleet
#

Normal Monster support is still in vogue, so it should be pretty easy to fusion summon it, all things considered

#

Especially when there may be even more Elemental HERO Fusion monsters around the corner too

valid cave
#

the thing is, even if the deck can make it easily

#

you almost certainly will never want to make it

#

because the card itself is terrible

#

unless making it is either required for something or other, or requires literally zero investment in addition to what you were doing anyway

#

just like original recipe gaia the dragon champion, thats what i expect flame wingman to be

dusk sleet
#

All likelihood there will be cards that'll work with it

#

Much like how stuff like Gaia the Dragon Champion, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon and the like still got perks to usage in spite of their effects... or lack thereof.

#

I'm pretty sure the whole "Over Rush Rare" thing is due to being such an iconic monster.

#

So there's probably something else in the Structure Deck you'll want to Fusion Summon

lusty venture
dusk sleet
#

And still, getting hit with that much effect damage is bound to hurt

#

Assuming it's effect does work like the original

desert cosmos
#

anyone wanna rush on edopro

#

i feel like playing a meme deck tho.

dusk sleet
#

I might! But I'll have to re-download Edopro right quick

#

Oookay, made a deck. You still need an opponent?

desert cosmos
#

@dusk sleet i'm back. btw i wanna test this meme deck if you are ok with that lol

dusk sleet
#

Sure, I'll go for it!

#

I think the jank stuff I got is a perfect way to try it

dusk sleet
#

Well played!

desert cosmos
#

that was fun lol

dusk sleet
#

I like the idea of Cyberdark Impact in Rush Duels. Pretty cool deck concept too!

#

Might need some customization to the monsters, but if that's what you want you can try out Duelingbook for that, since they got some dedicated custom card makers

desert cosmos
#

we will likely get some as somd point or at least a remake of them.

dusk sleet
#

Would be very cool. I'm all for GX stuff

desert cosmos
#

we seen they they can change effects with harpie lady

dusk sleet
#

Insofar as changing effects:

Cyberdark Horn could go unchanged
Cyberdark Edge may be suspect since I don't thin the Rush Duel ruleset really accounts for halves just yet. Could just be a flat number to direct attack damage added on
And Cyberdark Keel might just like, inflict 300 damage when it's equipped rather than doing it when it destroys something

#

Very few level 3 Dragon monsters have very high stats, so they would still be very much in-balance due to the lack of really big level 3 dragons like Hunter Dragon or Twin-Headed Behemoth

desert cosmos
#

i did make custom Cyberdark monsters at some point (but they were remakes)

dusk sleet
#

Oooh

...Y'know I do wish there was a custom channel for Custom Cards, but for Rush Duels. Just as a little slice to freely discuss rush duel customs.

But I guess there's a reason why it's not

#

Oh those are neat. I like the alternative names too

#

More machine than dragon, I guess!

these are all cards

dusk sleet
#

I like it!

lusty venture
#

oh

desert cosmos
dusk sleet
#

Ehhh, yeah, even 1200 ATK off of something like Baby Dragon makes one of em a 2000 ATK monster you just normal summoned

desert cosmos
#

true but at the same time you are kinda stuck if the opponent has 2500+ atk lol

#

Horn's the best lol

dusk sleet
#

Ahh

#

Yeah, Piercing damage is really good in rush duels

desert cosmos
#

i'm really hype for the HERO SD lol

dusk sleet
#

Same here!

desert cosmos
#

i hope they start importing more GX

#

can't wait for Cyber Girl.

#

or Roids lol

#

or even better, AG.

dusk sleet
#

We already got Cyber Tutu, it might happen!

#

And Ancient Gear Golem would be a pretty logical sort of Legend monster to throw in given the popularity of Jointech now

#

I even made a custom card in Duelingbook

desert cosmos
#

neat

#

DB still does not have legend mark ?

dusk sleet
#

Nope. You'll have to add it yourself to the image

#

Should be easy to do with the little sticker Spirare gave me though, but I haven't gotten around to it

dusk sleet
#

Ayyyy Raiza

valid cave
#

they look sooo good i love that theyre going back and overrushing old meta relevant cards!!

#

i just wish theyd do more!

but they did lillllyyyyyy so im happy <3333

@dusk sleet down to rush duel

dusk sleet
#

Sure! Give me a few minutes

lusty venture
#

dusk sleet

Just gotta do something then I’ll get back with ya

symph you still up to it 😅 you said a few minutes

dusk sleet

Ooookay I am back @lusty venture

Sorry about the delay!

alright ready

#

getting a replay then I'll host

dusk sleet

Righto~

lusty venture

hold, technical glitch

😅 DC'd and still thinks Im in

dusk sleet
#

Ahhh

soft nexus

clear your cache

lusty venture

it fixed itself

dusk sleet
#

Youch!

#

Good dueling!

#

And on 200 LP no less!

lusty venture
#

very nice duel

dusk sleet
#

Yaaa

#

The whole "burn half as long but burn twice as bright" thing VI-FRND stuff has is super cool

#

Does make me wish there were more ways to work with gaining LP rather than losing it, but this is super nice

#

I might try doing stuff with Psychic cards in a deck soon

dusk sleet
#

Got to thinking: Relay duels might be a fun concept for rush duels

#

3 people on a team, plus the deal with having to share a field isn't present like tag duels are

dusk sleet
#

Ended up making this recently

#
Level 4 / EARTH
Warrior / Effect
REQUIREMENT: During the Main Phase that you Normal Summoned or Special Summoned this card, Shuffle 2 Warrior Monsters from your Graveyard to the Deck.
EFFECT: Add 1 "Fusion" from your Graveyard to your hand. If you shuffled a Fusion Monster(s) to meet the requirement, you can add 1 "Polymerization" from your Graveyard to your hand, instead. This turn, non-Fusion monsters you control cannot attack.
ATK: 800 / DEF: 1600```
rare silo
#

RD/ORP2-JP035 Magnet Thunder Charge
Normal Spell Card
[REQUIREMENT] Send 1 Rock monster from the hand to the GY.
[EFFECT] Draw 2 cards, also, if there is a face-up Rock monster with an original ATK of 3500 on your field, then you can choose 1 monster your opponent controls and destroy it.

dusk sleet
#

That is some very impressive drawing

stuck summit
#

yeah this is one of the best of these so far

dusk sleet
#

The whole deal with needing to send a rock type monster isn't that much a downside for a Magnet Warrior deck, either

lofty socket
#

I kinda wish magnet was a monster type tbh

#

idk, I feel like there's a bit of a gap between "rock" and "machine" where there are just several monsters that are definitely metal (or magnets) without really looking like what you'd consider to be rock or machine monsters

dusk sleet
#

Yeah, Rocks and Machines I think used to be the connected types

#

Before they decided that it would be like, Machine, Psychic, and Cyberse

#

Like this thing, [Magnet Circle Lv2]

tender orioleBOT
dusk sleet
#

Wait, wrong card

#

Ah [Magnet Reverse]

tender orioleBOT
lofty socket
#

interesting

#

although the art is just gears and rocks lol

#

not exactly a blend or a blurring of lines

#

just two distinct things being depicted together :P

dusk sleet
#

Yeah!

rare silo
valid cave
#

well, while we don't technically see the effects
we know what mage power does so i think this is deserving of a ping

uncut badger
#

Huh

#

How many bets it will get powercrept by united we stand next set

tardy mica
#

All of them

valid cave
#

not necessarily power crept - united we stand might boost by more, but the boost can be reduced by just attacking in battle phase
also it requires you keep the other monsters face-up which can be risky

lusty venture
#

Mage power 😮

dusk sleet
#

Ayyy Mage Power

stuck summit
#

mage power pogofgreed

#

love that card

lusty venture
#

that one dian keto might like this

#

since she wants field+equip spells

dusk sleet
#

Did a short duel

#

Ended up using Delirium Papillon, Delirium Lampyris, and Royal Rebel's King's Return to take control of someone's Transamu Praime Full Armor Nova for an OTK

#

I really wish I took a screenshot of that

#

A right shame it was done with the equivelent of some side villain's sort of strategy, and insects on top of that.

lusty venture
#

@dusk sleet down to rush?

dusk sleet
#

Sure!

lusty venture
#

oh got into a speed duel, after words

dusk sleet
#

That's alright

lusty venture
#

very nice dueling

dusk sleet
#

Ye!

rare silo
dusk sleet
#

Ah, right, it was only ever available as an Over Rush Rare

uncut badger
#

I need help with smth

#

If every rush card was added to the tcg/ocg cardpool, what would be the most problematic ones?

lusty venture
uncut badger
#

With soft once per turns

dusk sleet
#

Honestly, Ship of Seven Treasures would be a safe bet

#

You don't got to throw out a specific monster to use it, unlike Trade-In

#

As is Deity of Seven Treasures - Ryozai

lusty venture
dusk sleet
#

Yep!

valid cave
#

like seven treasures isnt even remotely on the map

dusk sleet
#

Oooh

#

Just throw out everything

valid cave
#

thanks to the draw-to-5 rules, draw power and discard is balanced very differently in rush! and thats where the problems come in

dusk sleet
#

Nobody gets to play!

valid cave
lusty venture
#

turn 1 open card devestation, play rest of hand then drop it

#

damn

dusk sleet
#

Yep

uncut badger
#

I see

#

Anything else?

valid cave
#

card dev is definitely the biggest, hard to name others
definitely nothing on the same level

#

prophecy phrase is a monster with the same effect, but you have to get her on board first

#

there's a number of cards that draw a lot?

#

card reprinting is a battle trap so its not great, even if it does say "draw 5 cards"

lusty venture
#

soul charge at home

#

just need a psychic deck that can easily get these in gy

valid cave
#

ehhhhhh
it really is "soul charge at home", every one of those is a completely useless garnet...

#

sure you get 5 link materials at the end but

#

it's gonna be one of the brickiest youtube combo decks out there

dusk sleet
#

Graceful Charity

valid cave
#

true

dusk sleet
#

In all seriousness, really hard to name another

#

You can sum up the busted stuff as "Things that would only ever fly in a rush duel"

valid cave
#

accident prevention and great tortoise are both traps that draw a bunch, they might have a home somewhere
jar of greed 2

#

hdd... well, i guess its text says "if you would draw until you have 5 cards in your hand during your draw phase", which would be exceptionally niche in the tcg if taken literally (even though in rush duel that's just how draw rules normally work)

#

otherwise "normal draw 6 cards" would be funny

dusk sleet
#

Miracle Pick would be pretty much a freebie, assuming you got a Psychic monster that fits the criteria

valid cave
#

cyber dragon has a fusion here that draws 5, then discards 4? that might do some things

dusk sleet
#

I really do wish there were more fusions in the OCG

#

But I guess Chimeratech Rampage Dragon does a fine enough job as is

valid cave
#

with sufficient enablers from the tcg, since everything in rush duel is soft once per turn you can probably find some way to go infinite with some things

#

but most would require more effort than they do to go infinite in rush duel

#

like the progress potter and thunderbold infinite combos both require using the infinite normal summons that rush duel has

#

i think it's very unlikely you could go infinite with potter and impossible to go infinite with thunderbold in tcg

dusk sleet
#

Splame would be pretty cool in a fusion-centric deck

valid cave
#

necromaid nana could still find a home somewhere? just need a way to put her on field

dusk sleet
#

But hardly anything nowadays requires something with a specific name

valid cave
#

i wonder if amazing dealer could find a home irl?

#

"once per turn, if you have 3 or less monsters in gy: discard 3 cards; draw 3 cards"

dusk sleet
#

Yeah Amazing Dealer would be alright

#

But generally, it would depend on the deck

#

Eldlich might have a case: only monster you tend to have is just, Eldlich and whatever other kinds of monsters you can throw out to halt a game plan

valid cave
#

picotron likewise just says "once per turn: draw 2 cards", with the right setup

#

if you can find a way to loop it then maybe...?

valid cave
#

it's always live at the start of the game

#

the question is whether you can find a way to summon him (with only 1 normal summon per turn), and if you can find a way to loop him

dusk sleet
lusty venture

emote worthy

dusk sleet
#

Def has fluff energy

valid cave
#

ooh!

#

aquila is related to cutie in lore huh? thats neat!

dusk sleet
#

It's effect seems very suited to dealing with Excutie monsters

#

And Monarchs

#

also flame is cute :3
welll i guess it is in the name...

#

#

Right

#

I forgot the Rush Duel exclusives are level 5 instead of 6

#

[Zaborg the Thunder Monarch]

tender orioleBOT
dusk sleet
#

Also Zaborg too, what?

#

Am I just remembering it wrong?

valid cave
#

mostly shes designed to hunt cuties yeah... but vanity's was also a relevant target

dusk sleet
#

Ahh

valid cave
#

weirdly zaborg is the only lv5 tcg monarch

dusk sleet
#

Oh

#

[Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch]

tender orioleBOT
dusk sleet
#

Ahhh, right

#

All we are missing now is Mobius the Frost Monarch, and the whole gang's all here

#

Oh, and Granmarg

#

Granmarg would be pretty cool about now, due to the sudden surge of new rock-type monsters

#

I probably would have guessed Mad Rare Aquilia was a Harpie monster

#

Or something else, like what they did with [Battlestorm]

tender orioleBOT
# dusk sleet Or something else, like what they did with [Battlestorm]

level Level: 4
[ Winged Beast / Effect ]

ATK 1700 / DEF 1000

Effect

This card gains 100 ATK for each Winged Beast-Type monster you control. Once per turn: You can target 1 Spell/Trap Card your opponent controls; destroy that target. You must control 3 or more Winged Beast-Type monsters to activate and to resolve this effect.

dusk sleet
#

Totally not Captain Falcon

valid cave
lusty venture
#

Just make Caius bot deck

#

kuraz isnt one of the main monarchs but could be a neat legend in rush!

dusk sleet
#

[Kuraz the Light Monarch]

tender orioleBOT
# dusk sleet [Kuraz the Light Monarch]

level Level: 6
[ Warrior / Effect ]

ATK 2400 / DEF 1000

Effect

When this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can target up to 2 cards on the field; destroy those targets, and if you do, each player can draw 1 card for each of the cards they controlled that was destroyed by this effect. This card cannot attack during the turn it is Normal or Special Summoned.

dusk sleet
#

Yeah!

#

I really like Kuraz

#

It's effect is just a very neat double-edged sort of deal

valid cave
#

the rush draw rules turn it from being bad to very versatile!

dusk sleet
#

Most Monarch decks I knew of used it cause it was the one Monarch that can use its effect on a special summon, not just a tribute summon

Here, the actual effect is a good deal more handy

lusty venture

dusk sleet
#

I definitely need to look for other themes to try out, though. I probably play the Gaia deck way too much lol

#

Just, out of all the stuff from Duel Monsters, Gaia's just one monster I like; not stuff like Dark Magician, or Summoned Skull or I guess... Kuriboh?

Pinged ducky to translate for us

#

ooooh interesting!

#

theyre all about spying on the top of your opponent's deck and getting effects based on what you see

#

and also, about rigging the top of your opponent's deck so you know what's on top + they draw garbage

#

that trap's real rude
"put 5 cards from your opponent's graveyard on top of your opponent's deck"

#

it does at least force you to give them tribute fodders, and also they choose the order, but
still

lusty venture
#

do I have to give them a level 5+ as well?

valid cave
#

you dont!
give them 5 fodders! give them 2 monsters and 3 spells they cant use!

#

well or the spell, but still.

valid cave
#
  • the lv1 (hotpot): on normal/special, add an lv7+ fire cyberse or the fusion spell
  • first lv2 (cinnamon): flip the opp's top card, if it's an lv5+ then you summon a monster from hand
  • second lv2 (turmeric): if you have 10+ in deck and have another fire cyberse, look at an opponent's backrow, if it's a trap draw 1
  • lv3 (cumin): flip the opp's top card, deal damage equal to its level x100
  • first boss (wheatcloth demeter): if you havent summoned from gy yet, flip the top 2 and summon a monster from gy with an equal or lower level than the total
  • second boss (nutmeg): 1 cyberse tribute. mill 1 each, then you can place 1 milled card on top or bottom of the deck
  • third boss (garamasala): if your opp has a face-up monster, flip the top 3, a monster on the opp's field loses atk equal to 300 x the total levels flipped
#
  • fusion spell: fusion summon with fire cyberses from hand or field, then you can put a card from gy on top or bottom of opp's deck
  • trap: if you have 3+ differently named fire cyberses in gy, when a card is sent from the opponent's deck to gy, choose 5 cards in your opponent's gy including 2 lv4 or lower monsters, and the opponent puts those 5 cards on top of their deck in any order (their choice)

Man, I gotta catch back up with the action

lusty venture
#

Next episode has this theme in action

valid cave
#

oh it is an anime deck now huh

#

alright

lusty venture
#

The DARK Galaxy Theme “Dark Matter” makes its debut, which fights by making use of face-down Defense Position.

dusk sleet
#

Oooh?

#

That's interesting

#

I got no clue if these actually are in fact, an introduction to flip monsters, but even if they aren't, that's a neat sort of gameplan

lusty venture
dusk sleet
#

Ah yeah, but they go face-down instead of messing around with just swapping battle position

#

Throwing things face-down is also still very debilitating, especially when you would have cards that can work off such a thing, but your opponent does not

#

Would be very rude to also print something like, I guess Dark-Piercing Light in the same set

#

Honestly I am surprised Dark-Piercing Light isn't a thing already in rush duels, it's a very simple sorta spell card. Then again, Seal of the Ancients does the same thing

lusty venture
#

btw apparently in the anime a "red pepper" trap was used

Oh wow, it really is

#

Divine Dragon Apocralyph legend when?

dusk sleet
#

Y'know I got to thinking

#

Battle Packs.

In Rush Duel

#

And given the card pool, this would sound incredibly fun

uncut badger
#

Yea rush draft sounds like a cool idea

dusk sleet
#

Given that you don't even have to really have an extra deck to do some good work in a Battle Pack, that can lead to some very creative and fun times to be had with a group

#

In fact, I might end up designing a fan-made battle pack myself

#

So let's see here.

#

Going off this page, it seemed the original Battle Pack had a specific ratio of what a pack contains:

#

Each pack contains 5 cards: 1 card that is in rare foiling, intended to be a game-changer (Stuff like Xyz monsters, or other very potent monsters, spells and traps, such as Witch of the Black Forest, Raigeki or Mirror Force)
1 card that is a spell/trap, or some form of monster with an effect that would remove cards from the field, intended to be slightly less impressive cards that can still turn a duel around
1 card that is a high ATK monster, which is a beatstick of some fashion
1 card that is a monster with often low ATK values, but would have effects that can justify their usage in a deck
and 1 "wild card", which could be any of the above four. This was a shatterfoil rare, to differentiate from the rest.

#

In the context of rush duels, it can more or less remain the same, save for the fact that there of course, isn't any Xyz monsters. And it would be pretty 'bleh' to throw in Maximum or Fusion monsters due to the reliance on other cards to summon them, so we can forgoe any extra deck stuff

#

I'll likely take from a pool of around 220 cards and use em to make a battle pack. More or less may be necessary, but this may be a good number to start with

lusty venture
#

Shatterfoil aka how to blind people with sunlight (joking)

dusk sleet
#

I'm also conflicted on the inclusion of Legend cards in this set too. They may fall into the first category, but with the unique rules on including more than 1 in a deck, I wonder if it can be ignored for the sake of battle pack

dusk sleet
#

For now I'll include a few in the first category, but may be subject to change

dusk sleet
#

Alright, so here's what I got so far. It's still a work in progress, so anyone can feel free to add onto this for concepts and ideas

that's prolly the best you're gonna get

#

again though, caveat that the bot doesn't currently gather rush duel-specific card props from yugipedia, so the data may end up incomplete

seems like it has most of the important stuff though? maybe?

compare and contrast: (this is harpie lady sisters [L])

well

past me knew what future me would think about this

i started parsing the relevant fields and then said "ehhhh fuck it"

womp womp x2

lofty socket
#

that was a lucky example tbh, there's a lot of cards that don't have that field

#

and how's it handle fusions?

gritty willow
#

back when i coded the whole pedia query functionality, it was sort of a rush job for the new version of eye bot where my focus was just maintaining the previous functionality so no one would yell at me because it went missing

#

hence this rush duel stuff not making the cut

#

i could probably made the bot grab that stuff now, but man that would be effort

lofty socket
#

also is there a command to delete a message (without me using my mod powers)

#

there used to be, I think

gritty willow
#

there did indeed used to be

#

i have yet to add it back

though... the bot is supposed to delete its response if you delete your query

#

JOKES ON YOU BOT

lofty socket
#

oh, perhaps I waited too long to delete my previous message

i think it's like a 15s grace period if memory serves

yes but the (edited) is a badge of shame

gritty willow

wash away the guilt

anyway it's interesting that it picks up some of the rush duel cards but also veers wildly off course for others

[chemical cure purple]

tender orioleBOT
lofty socket
#

oh there we go

#

okay so rush fusions are also missing their fusion materials

#

just helping you debug lol

#

add it to the list :P

#

also, small suggestion: is there a way to mark a channel as preferring rush duel cards, and then bias the query results towards them?

gritty willow
gritty willow
#

and doing that means you're at the mercy of yugipedia's search function too

#

which in my experience is only really trustworthy when you have the exact name to use

#

see above, where the difference between harpie lady sisters "L" and harpie lady sisters (L) (where the latter is the correct name) produced completely different results

#

ok that's not quite fair to yugpedia; the bot has a limitation yugipedia doesn't, which is that it has to pick + display one result

#

yugipedia can of course display multiple which you can choose from

#

so it's more like you're at the combined mercy of how yugipedia search determines what the best match is, and the bot which must use that best match even if there are others

dusk sleet
#

Oh hey, a trap card I can use to steal even more monsters with

#

A right shame I cannot snatch up Maximum monsters with it

#

Then again, Delirium Lamphyris can't either, given it has to remain on the field to use its effect

lusty venture
#

Symph you gonna steal all my cards with this tech 😛

dusk sleet
#

Maybe!

#

But knowing my luck, it'll be on the very bottom of the deck

valid cave
#

yeah even without the condition i don't think there's any possible way you could take control with a maximum monster with this with rush duel's cardpool
since while there's a lot of ways to reduce the level of a maximum monster, to use this trap youd have to continuously reduce its level so it's lv8 or lower at the moment it's summoned

#

but it could potentially be possible in the future (there's unprinted anime cards that can do it) so it's just future proofing

valid cave
#

well anyway
despite being an over rush trap in a main set, which've historically been pretty good
this card seems bad right?
we already have shiny shady, this card takes more investment to work on less things. and you can't really use the thing you steal for anything except protection

now, if removing a tribute summon is enough to end the turn, then it is pretty devastating since it leaves the board empty, and it also denies a tribute fodder + doesn't allow fusion summoning with spells that can use face-downs so following up is a little harder

but still it's just too niche, and i can't think of any situation where shady can't do a job this does - at best itll do it a little better than shady does

maybe you can side deck it in as shady copies 4+ in certain matchups..

dusk sleet
#

Yeah, if you can't really do anything with it, then it doesn't seem very helpful

#

At the very least Mind Control in the OCG had its uses, given it's been limited or forbidden for a good long while, but in this case there's just not a whole lot of points to its use, unless you plan to use it for a tribute summon next turn

Destroy every spell or trap card on the field, and if it were not enough, you likely got an additional 2500 ATK bonus by tribute summoning it with three monsters

super cool! but significantly less generic than god requiem is, and likely worse because if you're in a situation where you can get good value off the heavy storm, your opponent can likely just disrupt the summon (and then since you tributed 3 monsters youre in a really bad position)

#

still while its not gonna be good its neat and itll be funny to build a deck around gods requiem + oblivion

@dusk sleet you down to rush?

Oh! Yeah, I'm down for a duel

Nice dueling

I'm starting to think that this whole cyberspice thing really wasn't exactly playtested all that much when they designed it cause jeez

#

Either way, it's good dueling!

Yeah seems that was a case too, given it was a bunch of level 6 stuff that really really hates anything that's got a higher level than 6

Makes me wonder if Excutie wasn't just some Goha propaganda given how much they love the number 6

#

Well, I guess now's a good time as any to try and find new decks to play. I could probably try out the new Magnet Warrior stuff now.

#

I got to thinking about more OCG ports, and I'm just wondering how well this would even go over with games if it did exist.

I don't think anyone ever actually seriously played this in the OCG, but Rush Duel very well may be another matter, alongside something like say, Pot of Generosity

During the Main Phase: The turn player can activate these effect(s).
●Pay 1000 LP; immediately after this effect resolves, Normal Summon 1 monster from your hand that requires 1 Tribute, without Tributing.
●Pay 2000 LP; immediately after this effect resolves, Normal Summon 1 monster from your hand that requires 2 Tributes, without Tributing.
(This is their one Normal Summon/Set for that turn.)

#

Only 1 Normal Summon per turn in the OCG, but here, you can do it as much as you want

desert cosmos
#

activated on a field spell idk.

dusk sleet
#

So long as you got LP to spare, this'll let you (and your opponent!) tribute summon as much as you like

desert cosmos
#

it would have to be worded like. each player can Normal Summon level 6 or higher monsters without tributing by paying 1000 lp for each tribute they require for their tribute summon (max. 2.)

#

Yeah, a little syntax stuff, but it can work as intended

desert cosmos
#

a legendary ocean would be a fun one too.

most of them mention the name "dark matter mist"

so the deck only works by changing their names to dark matter mist

uncut badger
#

So they change their names to a card that doesnt exist

tardy mica
#

knight seems fine

lusty venture
#

globule= only a recycler to deck
and the other straight up doesnt work without outside theme stuff

tardy mica
#

claydoll seems kinda crazy

tardy mica
#

so all the dolls become mist

tardy mica
#

presumably because they are animated by the mist

#

ngl the idea of name changing your monsters to a card that doesn't exist is kind of a hilarious archetype gimmick

#

i might steal that for later

#

ah so thats why everything is so low atk

lusty venture
#

Ah! That's why

tardy mica
#

i think it'd be really, really funny if they never print a card who's original name is darkmatter mist

#

oh damn a feather duster too

valid cave
#

a little disappointing the way they support face-down monsters?
the gimmick is less of "set all your stuff down" and more of "play with exactly 1 monster on your board, the rest you can't use"

tardy mica
#

yeah

#

that part is lame

lusty venture
#

feather duster that is immune to anti-summon stuff

#

The payoff is kinda bad aside from the hfd, too

dusk sleet
#

1300 DEF really isn't ideal if you want to make the most use of face-down monsters

uncut badger
#

Can enigmata even reliably hit over a maximum?

dusk sleet
#

Felt like this would at least be a good opportunity to make the monsters each have 1600 DEF

valid cave
uncut badger
#

Fair enough

stuck summit
#

yeah how often are you gonna be up against an actually maximum summoned maximum

valid cave
#

if your opponent is successfully maximum summoning, you have bigger problems on your hands than how to clear it on the next turn
such as: are you getting a next turn?

dusk sleet
#

Honestly, Maximum summons can and do go off.

#

...Either that or Summer is a special case, since I have the worst luck, and I really can't shake the feeling that Graceful Charity always is in the top 5 cards of her deck

#

I really do wish I had better measures against such things in all honesty: I do have means of destroying one in most decks (Gaia the Battle Ruler, Eclydisis Caesarleon, Blue-Eyes Ulimate Dragon, etc)

#

It's just, I'm me and have the worst fortune possible.

valid cave
#

abyss max decks will usually kill you the turn that they maximum summon and the way to win is to prevent them from maximum summoning at all
okeabyss decks' traps make just swinging over the maximum completely impractical anyway, you need direct removal that isn't contested by the traps

#

volcalize... well, volcalize isn't very good

#

but "can you clear 4100 atk" is a relevant way to beat volcalize yeah

dusk sleet
#

Thank goodness for on-summon trap cards

#

Though, in all honesty I do wish I can be better prepared for maximum monsters

#

Such as halting whichever this Abyss Max thing is with some measures to prevent such an attack, among other things.

valid cave
#

usually the most reliable way to beat maximum decks is with disruptive traps like shiny shady or traditional tax, that can shut down or delay their setup
and to just kill them before they can gather the pieces

dusk sleet
#

Hol' up, but you can't put a Maximum Monster into face-down defense position, can you?

valid cave
#

like i said

tardy mica
#

nop

valid cave
#

their setup

dusk sleet
#

Oh

valid cave
#

you flip down the monsters that would add the pieces to their hand

dusk sleet
#

I was about to say, if it turned out I could actually do it this whole time

lusty venture
dusk sleet
#

So most what i know about what can deal with such monsters is:

Make a comeback with a higher ATK monster
Use a Spell or Trap that wouldn't be stopped by the myriad of effects
Raiza. Cause he's a total bro like that.

valid cave
#

well, it'd definitely be a noticeable change!
but i don't think it'd significantly change which decks are viable or not

dusk sleet
#

Spirare would have like, Dark Hole, come to think of it

#

Actually, does the Extra Card item work in Rush Duels?

valid cave
#

it does!

dusk sleet
#

Oooh

#

I guess it does in fact, give you Legend cards?

valid cave
#

yeah, gives you the broken legends that aren't in duel links yet

dusk sleet
#

Ahhh

valid cave
#

monster reborn, mirror force, dark hole, magic cylinder

#

pot of greed isn't a broken legend, that one sucks, but it's in the pool too

dusk sleet
#

So the usuals! that's pretty clever

#

They're the extra cards for the OCG too, so that's nice

valid cave
#

i was gonna analyze a little more how it might change deckbuilding and play.

dusk sleet
#

Alright, so aside from bigger monsters, and I guess Raiza, would there be anything else?

#

I know insofar as halting an advance, Deity of Seven Treasures -Ryozai is pretty good at that.

valid cave
dusk sleet
#

Plus, they got 1 attack to work with, so they got to make that one attack count

valid cave
#

the attribute draw skills are gonna be crazy when excutie gets added to duel links!

dusk sleet
#

Mine's probably just like, I guess adding either Veteran Curse of Dragon or Veteran Gaia

#

I just really like Gaia, is all.

uncut badger
#

My skill puts all 3 (R) pieces of my maximum of choice on the bottom on the deck

dusk sleet
uncut badger
#

Seemed like i picked a bad timing for it

#

But thx for answering

dusk sleet
#

What's really funny is Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight is a thing.

And one would think it's good, but it's really not

uncut badger
#

Do go ahead in elaborating, btw

#

I'm interested

stuck summit
#

makes sense that that would be bad in a format where you draw 5 cards every turn

dusk sleet
#

Yeah, like, it's better, but it's just, a very very slight better.

#

So really, no better than it was before.

#

Also, you generally want either the OG or Veteran anyways, so this just never gets used in Gaia decks

valid cave
# uncut badger Do go ahead in elaborating, btw

well, in general a noticeable change fur most decks would be that you can be more greedy with backrows generally - both in setting backrows you can't immediately use when you draw a bad hand, and in putting in more and less versatile backrows when deckbuilding because drawing a hand full of them would be less bad

the risk of having 3 sets you can't use, then drawing more backrows that you can use and having no zones to put them in would basically be gone

dusk sleet
#

Believe me, it happens to me way more often than I'd like to admit

#

Set 3 cause I gotta draw more cards next turn... but then my opponent just never destroys any of em, or they don't go off, so I'm stuck with 3 clogged up zones

valid cave
#

otks would become much easier in general

#

monsters that extend into more monsters on the board would be generally stronger - with animagica leader in particular becoming much better and maybe even becoming a serious strategy and not a meme card?

dusk sleet
#

...Y'know, this would make Emergency Provisions a card I would totally use if it were made for rush duels

valid cave
#

because currently she has the secret text of "you control no other monsters"

dusk sleet
#

[Emergency Provisions]

tender orioleBOT
dusk sleet
#

If only cause it can get rid of spell or trap cards on the field

valid cave
#

emergency provisions has a pretty bad downside in rush compared to the tcg: chaining isn't a thing here, so you can't do the thing of activating a backrow and then sending it fur cost

#

in rush you can't have your cake and eat it too, if you use it as cost then that's the one thing youve used it fur

uncut badger
dusk sleet
#

Yeah, that would be a downside, but it can always become a normal spell

#

It's what they did with Graceful Dice, too

valid cave
#

yeah it could be imported as a normal spell but you don't get to use it in the best way it works in the tcg

#

there are a few cards that can send any card from your field to gy in rush already though, just to help reduce bricking

dusk sleet
#

No silly Mirage of Nightmare situations for us!

valid cave
#

glacies, space yggdrago... manifestation uses a similar design philosophy but only sends monsters

uncut badger
#

So

#

I'm making a ygo fangame, mentioned it a couple of times in other channels already

dusk sleet
#

Oooh

uncut badger
#

And i'm trying to figure out what stuff would break in case i added rush cards in

dusk sleet
#

In terms of coding or how the game works in general?

#

I can't help with coding, but I'm certain we know rulings.

uncut badger
#

(Along with a rule that gives you the extra normal summons and draws if all of your deck's card are rush cards)

uncut badger
dusk sleet
#

Ahhhh

valid cave
#

ah, it was you who asked about what rush cards were most broken if added to the tcg right

#

like card devastation

uncut badger
#

Coding is future choccy's problem to figure out

dusk sleet
#

I'd say with most card games, it takes a good bit of playtesting.

dusk sleet
#

Having a good couple duels with a lot of different cards and such could provide some insights on what works, what doesn't and what works too well

uncut badger
#

My main issue is that i'm kinda out of touch with rush itself lol, took a major break when go rush started

dusk sleet
#

We do a couple of rush duels here regularly too; I often help out Summer with her deckbuilding by being a test dummy opponent for her, as is Spirare.

#

Copper's around too, but they use Edopro for their duels, as is Moonrite

#

If you need duels done in sims, we can certainly be around

valid cave
#

but yeah i don't think having 5 zones would cause anything to be broken

#

though if you're crossing tcg and rush, i don't think rush has any chance to compete, assuming the broken stuff like card devastation is banned

#

at least, no rush-centric strategy; at best there might be an occasional bit of tech (card draw most likely) that finds its way into an otherwise normal tcg deck

uncut badger
#

I'm concerned with that as well

#

Altho most of the game would be like

#

Xyz era powerlevel decks

#

Stuff like batteryman and old noble knights

valid cave
#

if i had to bet on any rush duel deck finding a way to beat a tcg deck, itd probably be excutie? lumiere is an actual boardbreaker that can contest certain endboard pieces like savage dragon, and the deck comes with real disruption!

#

...im totally not biased even though im the excutie main

#

totally

uncut badger
#

The crossed out text begs to differ

dusk sleet
#

Admittedly, I can see some funny shenanigans with Excuties and [Creature Swap]

tender orioleBOT
dusk sleet
#

But those are... eh.

#

I think you'd just be better off using this card with Number 30: Acid Golem of Destruction

#

At least it stops any summons

valid cave
#

nah
excutie doesn't want to take control of stuff because it can't use the stuff it steals very well
and excutie doesn't want to give control of stuff because... lilius is free link material

#

well, no such thing as link material in xyz era

#

but xyz monsters are also unaffected by lilius's lock

uncut badger
#

Well, not as much xyz era itself as it is power level

#

Links would still be a thing, altho be just the weaker ones

valid cave
#

alright so we're back to lily being free link material

#

excutie being beatrice turbo duel links style would be funny

uncut badger
#

Also adding non rush cards to your deck makes you play under regular ygo's ruleset again

#

So... Yea

#

Also

uncut badger
#

It will have (hopefully) 3 starter decks and i wanted to make one of them a rush duel deck

#

I was thinking of FIRE Pyro/thunder/aqua since they have both fusions and a maximum, along with not having the deck built around just 1 aesthetic/playstyle

valid cave
#

ennh

#

the fusion vs maximum variants are basically just different decks though

#

they don't mix well at all

#

and i definitely don't think a (bad) maximum turbo deck should be the introduction to rush of choice

uncut badger
#

Fair enough, i was thinking of just adding 1 of each piece for introduction purposes

valid cave
#

a lot of the rush duel beginner deck recommendations id be inclined to give kinda play to existing familiarity with the tcg, so if you're assuming they don't know any card games at all

well let's see. nostalgia isn't a factor, it shouldn't have a lot of text (ideally no special summoning conditions), it should have simple and straightforward turns (no combo nonsense like dark caster, not as much decisionmaking as excutie)

#

maybe... hybridrive? although i don't know if that's a good recommendation when the deck isn't even released yet

#

but once kp17 is out it seems like a sufficiently straightforward, but otherwise more modern deck

uncut badger
#

We could also make the assumption that they know a bit of yugioh, just not rush

#

Like, a player who played 30 mins of master duel/watched duel monsters

#

For example

valid cave
#

harpie is pretty straightforward too, and has the bonus of being a nostalgia anime deck

uncut badger
#

Harpie is kinda obtuse, no?

#

With the whole "maximums you dont want to maximum summon" thing

valid cave
#

mmmm actually yeah

#

simple in playstyle when you go in with the knowledge of what parts of the harpie cards don't matter

#

but they do come with some reading that's largely flavor text

uncut badger
#

How about something from the sevens era?

#

Does anything come to mind?

#

The game's power level should be low enough to where they can compete

lusty venture
valid cave
#

sevens era decks in general will be a lot simpler to play
but also will struggle a lot more against tcg decks

#

dragoncaster is like, the ultimate sevens era rush duel deck

lusty venture
valid cave
#

it's anime, it was viable all the way from release until the release of excutie

#

and it basically consists of "play double attack bungus, set mirror force"

uncut badger
#

Dragoncaster could work

#

What do you think of machines, btw?

#

Stuff like flag breaker could be decent

lusty venture
#

I like how this thing is called jelly KEKW

valid cave
#

cyber dragon is often recommended to new players! especially because it's tcg anime and includes many core cards that players from the tcg will already be familiar with

#

i see no world where ace breaker is good enough to compete against decks with tcg cards

lusty venture
#

^Dark matter jelly

uncut badger
valid cave
#

well... okay im not familiar with edison (it's pre-xyz right?)

#

ace breaker specifically though

uncut badger
#

Yes

#

2010

uncut badger
valid cave
#

the play pattern that made ace breaker good is summoning it and then protecting it with traps for a turn so you have a fresh hand

#

and otherwise it's like, a 2500 vanilla that works with machine type support?

uncut badger
#

A 2500 vanilla was unironically pretty decent in edison

#

A lot of deck's turn 1 is magical android + backrow

valid cave
#

i think it's unlikely a match against a tcg deck would ever lend itself to that kind of gameplan
and against less battle focused gameplans, stuff like tribute summoning caius and whatnot, the machine payoffs are probably not very good

#

so at some point i don't think it's ace breaker that wins the game

#

but the simple fact of having rush duel rules when your opponent doesn't

#

and then it's best to play an extremely goodstuffy deck where you just get materials to tribute summon something for free each turn and the opponent will never outresource you

uncut badger
#

I see

#

Thanks for the input

lofty socket
#

ngl I love the idea that "dark matter mist" is a name that cards can take on, or use as material, without any card actually being printed with that original name

#

that's pretty fun

#

ofc maybe they HAVE designed a card with that name, and it's just not in this batch of reveals, but idk that wouldn't be as cool

lusty venture
#

@dusk sleet down to rush?

dusk sleet
#

Sure!

#

Give me a sec

lusty venture
#

in a duel so would be after

#

DB bugging

dusk sleet
#

Ye

#

I figured it was

#

DB!

lusty venture
#

so maybe later

dusk sleet
#

Ahh, ok

dusk sleet
#

aaaaaa when will we get HERO revelas

#

Also; ended up thinking more on the whole Duel Links skill thing from earlier, and figured mine would be something like:

#
[EFFECT] Toss a coin. Add 1 "Gaia the Fierce Knight" from your deck to the Graveyard if the result is Heads. Add 1 "Curse of Dragon" from your deck to the Graveyard if the result is Tails```
#

Best I can do so far, and I'm unsure if it would be balanced in the context of Duel Links

#

I dunno if this also applies to the Extra deck, if so, then RIP Battle Ruler

uncut badger
#

Considering fusions arent in the game yet, same with all the gaia/curse of dragon cards are beside the vanillas, hard to tell

dusk sleet
#

Ahh, alright

uncut badger
#

Altho, dl skills are able to basically do whatever they want

#

P[hell tuning invasion]

tender orioleBOT
# uncut badger P[hell tuning invasion]
Effect

This Skill can be used if the only monsters with 1400 or more ATK in your Deck are LIGHT Attribute Fiend Type.
REQUIREMENT] Send 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard.
EFFECT] All monsters on either field become face-up Attack Position. Until the end of the turn, the Level of all Level 4 or lower Fiend Type monsters on your field becomes 5, and the Level of all Level 5 or higher monsters on your opponent's field decreases by 4. This turn, you cannot attack with monsters that are Level 6 or lower.

dusk sleet
#

Ahhh, yeah

#

I could probably come up with something a little more creative! Hmm!

#

This looks like a Roa skill if I saw one.

#

P[Set - Sparks]

tender orioleBOT
dusk sleet
#

There's a skill that just lets you set Sparks

#

Best skill ever

#

There's a card that does in fact use this specific spell card, but I feel like it's not the best use when Curtain of Sparks is a thing

lusty venture
#

@dusk sleet still up to rush?

dusk sleet
#

Yeah, I'm game!

lusty venture
#

well played

dusk sleet
#

Ye

#

Feels like Dark Mist is a work in progress

lusty venture
#

yeah

dusk sleet
#

We may need to wait a few until there's more material to work with

#

Mixing up a few Voidvelgr cards in the mix may be an idea

#

You could use cards like Sunset Rebirth, Threat from Outer Space and the like to have sets to work with

dusk sleet
#

Oh, hello, what's this?

lusty venture
#

huh?

dusk sleet
#

Oh that's super cool

winter ridge
lusty venture
#

OH bewd stuff

dusk sleet
#

It's generic dragon stuff, at that!

lusty venture
#

remind me what level does the fusion spell for bewd summon?

#

found it

dusk sleet
#

Yep, pretty much made solely for Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon.

#

Though seeing that level, yeah, I wager there's more to use it with

lusty venture
#

So now another target for it

dusk sleet
#

...Oh!

#

I now see the other fusion monster on top of the trap card

#

Yeah, making it level 10 would be necessary

#

Dragon fans eatin' good tonight

#

I dunno if there's much to say about this specific monster, though it does give Blue-Eyes White Dragon decks more flexibility

#

So, you don't just only got like, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, or if you've got Dragon tribe Fusion, F.G.D.

#

Curious about how applicable I can use Dragonic Domination in a very trap-heavy deck

#

Would involve using monsters like say, Hyozanryu, but it could be doable?

#

Cause the other choice, assuming one isn't also using other monsters that are part of a series is Seiyaryu.

winter ridge
stuck summit

I wouldn't fully count on it, here if anything it's more a gig of translation.

幻影 can also be translated as Phantom, as you may have seen on the Phantom Knights cards

#

Love how they kept the stylization of that H, from [HERO Signal]

tender orioleBOT
lusty venture
#

I think it's a rush version of hero signal

dusk sleet
#

Though that full moon in the back makes me feel like it's also borrowing from Destiny HERO's aesthetics

uncut badger
#

Did dragoncaster ever play other dragons besides just og dragias?

valid cave
#

not high level dragons generally, it'd run other staple bosses like yamiruler and heavy metal instead
but phoenix dragon was important, and often they'd also run dragorite + dragon's inferno (dragorite is another name fur inferno, plus it acts as sevens road's earth attribute)

#

oh wait
they also ran shock dragon, that's a high level

dusk sleet
#

Ayooo

dusk sleet
#

Thanks for the duels~

lusty venture

u2

dusk sleet
#

Yeah I really am liking Ice Age Catapult

#

Though, there's like, only two WATER Rock monsters out there, so it's a little finnicky at times

#

I might try re-imagining my old WATER deck next

#

Also just gonna ask for suggestions: What kind of zany kind of deck could I probably attempt to make next?

#

Had some eyes on like, the whole Mad Max-esque Beast Gear, but knowing me, it would be less Thunderdome, and more of me just flinging Vorse Raider at things.

lusty venture
#

IE earth dragons

dusk sleet
#

Ahhh, yeah, I can try my hand at this

desert cosmos
#

btw how many dark matter should be left in the pack ?

uncut badger
#

How common are effects that need your opponent to control exactly 3 monsters or 3 set cards?

valid cave
# desert cosmos btw how many dark matter should be left in the pack ?

we don't know exactly, but the slots look pretty complete; there's no gaps between them, they already have 8 maindecks, another fusion is impossible and there's only one slot after their spells that will most likely go to a non-theme generic spell
i think it's pretty likely there's one trap saved fur a later reveal but nothing else

#

it's also possible that slot 001 is a dark matter vanilla? mist?

desert cosmos
#

do be weird that they printed a mix, instead of the ones that guy used.

#

Parallel pad is so good.

#

son is that double reborn for the level 1 vanilla

valid cave
# uncut badger How common are effects that need your opponent to control exactly 3 monsters or ...

very few, mostly old and bad cards like psychic burial
auto reverse and dual space yggdrago are a couple notable ones
i don't think there are any cards that care about your opponent controlling exactly 3 spells/traps (the existence of the field zone kinda prevents those)

although cards that say they affect "up to 3" (which, in rush, would mean "any number") are very common
and there's also a lot of cards that care about you controlling exactly 3 monsters

there's also a few effects that don't technically care about the opponent controlling exactly 3 of something, but scale with how many cards the opponent controls and are soft-capped by the number of zones the opponent has; e.g. seedchrotron brusselun could get to add up to 5 monsters back to hand with 5 monster zones, dual space yggdrago could get to make up to 5 attacks, or asport pirate could get to add up to 5 monsters to the opponent's hand. i wouldn't expect any of those to really cause problems though

uncut badger
#

I see

valid cave
#

btw - if you're trying to cross tcg/ocg cards with rush, a notable interaction is that rush cards are never phrased to target, so all of them would bypass targeting protection?

uncut badger
#

I was considering making stuff like select/choose target

valid cave
#

you could try that, but itd require some significant changes to how many rush cards work i think

#

rush cards are designed so that costs are paid and effects are performed simultaneously and "choosing" can be done at any part of the process

uncut badger
#

Good thing i'll have to code everything from scratch if something goes wrong

#

Also tbf, chaining is not a thing in rush so stuff like cost and effect being done at the same time doesnt matter as much

#

If i wanted to be cute i could make every single rush card effect unrespondable (at least if you have rush rules enabled)

#

Would also give the cards a major upside, i suppose

valid cave
#

although if you make it dependent on having rush rules or not then the conflicts show up again

uncut badger
#

i'll probably have to figure it out in testing

valid cave
#

hey, what if fur every 10 rush cards you add to your deck, you get 1 additional normal summon and draw up to 1 additional card in hand per draw phase? :3

#

thatd probably just lead to an entirely diffurent format than any yugioh we've ever played though! but itd be a funny experiment to try

uncut badger
