this is what goat format is all about. it might not be clear from the start exactly how this deck works, but as you mentioned jdz i think there are a lot of really strong interactions that you can only begin to notice after playing the deck a lot. i'm actually curious how adding a nightmare penguin or 2 in for some of the spirit reapers would work. it's a lava golem bouncer, a decent wall, and an extra target for abyss THE GUU NEVER DIES - GET IN THE CAGE!!
As someone who plays mostly agro strategies, this deck looks like a nightmare to face, but I always appreciate the innovation. What people underrate about playing unorthodox strategies, is that with decks like this, where you’ve really worked a lot on it, put in time on it, honed it in, you’ve got experience with different matchups and you’re going to be really good at playing the deck. People will try weird stuff once and say, “this is bad.” But for the true guu guardians, once you push through that initial period of learning, if you keep believing in what you’re trying to do, you can really start taking games off of the best decks, consistently. I love it, great stuff jdz.
Magic Cylinder is potentially the most underrated goat format card. People attack into it all day, especially if mirror force is in the grave. Such a fun oldie to play with
It’d be good if ring didn’t exist. Cylinder is a -1. Ring does everything cylinder does but does it better because it doesn’t give you a -1, while at the same time it’s reactionary. Meaning it can be used in reaction to any of the ops plays. Cylinder can only be used when a monster attacks.
@@jondough3339 you’re talking to someone who has played competitively on and off for almost 20 years. I don’t need your explanation of what a -1 is or why ring is more versatile than cylinder. Jesus Christ
@@jondough3339 cylinder is underrated. Doesn’t mean it’s good in the meta. Doesn’t mean it’s good in essentially any deck other than burn. Book of moon is a minus 1, so is upstart goblin, jar of greed, etc. There are tons of minus 1 cards that have effects making them playable despite not always leading to a plus situation. Doesn’t mean they’re bad cards. Cylinder is similar. In a good situation, your opponent can attack into it thinking at worst it’s a saku if mirror force is in the grave already. If they’re low on life, cylinder is absolutely dangerous.
@@TheOldSchoolExpert upstart and greed are trash. Book isn’t that great either. It’s only played because it’s one of the few outs to TER and there’s no other card like it besides tsuky, and not every deck can fully optimize tsuky. Book is also reactionary to things such as snatch. It has more utility than something like cylinder. Therefore book gets play. While it’s true that cylinder can win a game, the same can also be said of kuriboh attacking directly when your op has 300 or less lp. That reasoning doesn’t make kuriboh a good card nor does it make cylinder a good or even under rated card. It’s rated appropriately, and that’s at the bottom of the junk pile.
Cyber Jar is a strong consideration for a Lava Lock deck. It cycles through your deck, can put the two Monsters you need on your opponent's field and has synergy with Ceasefire.
That's crazy, I was just thinking this morning about the different interactions Lava Golem has with a lot of cards in this format. It looks and sounds solid, keep up the great work
There could be a potential for some GK action in Guard since he can bounce the Golem back to the hand alongside Compuls, and perhaps along with Spy can be played with Necrovalley in side to counter chaos decks.
You just taught me more goat rules I didn’t understand, glad I watched all the way through! I don’t have much free time but goat format is my new hobby :D
Lava golem is one of my all time favorite cards. I have always used him and loved messing with people taking their monsters n burning them. The original goat kaiju monster
this is a really cool list. I might try running a couple copies of smashing ground instead of maybe the trunade and ceasefire. it would help for applying pressure with spirit reaper and helps deal with boards where your opponent is playing around lava golem
I love the combo with Fusilier Dragon and Dora of Fate. You could also Meta into King Dragun and Last Warrior. Dora of Fate in combination with Cylinder/Ring, Lava Golem's burn, and Thousand-Eyes/Brain Control/Snatch can be devastating
They had Econ and sinister Serpent while you had the warrior lady and the tomato. They should have econ take since sinister serpent would come back, then swing with the warrior lady to get rid of her and the mystic tomato. He had the resources but didn't use them well. Because of that he lost his sinister serpent.
Reflect Bounder, Mystic Tomato, Sangan, Canon Soldier, Lava Golem, Mof, BLS, Limiter Remov ; the lineup I use. The Limiter Remov with 2 or more Cannon Soldier on board is a lot of damage then last will into sangans and stuff and sacking goat tokens with Camnon. Super toxic but funny.
game 2 did you always side out the 15 or there are games you stay with main build? Also what about game 3 if there is one will you turn back to lava golem if you change it in game 2? its kinda of a mindgame nightmare
With reaper, goats, and ter you don’t really need gravity bind. I’d swap those out for solemn. Giant germs would be pretty good since you got tomatos. Maybe run creature swap as well.
Sometimes it Can be. but if you use it in response to an opponent's card it's usually a one-for-one. In this build if you use lava golem and compule it back to your hand that is technically a plus value. Another benefit is compulse plus reaper poke is also a one for one plus tempo so not bad in this build.

Thats really awesome im glad you could take something away!! welcome to goats make sure you jump in the discord theres tons of information there
saw u play this vs Lucas G some time ago, one of my fav replays and spiced-out decks this season, keep up the good work!
I love lucas G I hate i had to toss him in the cage
Oh hell yeah. Lava Golem is one of the sickest DM-era iconic monsters.
it is 100% one of my fave i love that art and the secret rare rarity is the best
Lava golem is one of my all time favorite cards. I have always used him and loved messing with people taking their monsters n burning them. The original goat kaiju monster
me too I pulled this card from a pack so long ago and Ive always loved it -JDZ
cool idea jdz. thanks for keeping the spice up!
Sweet deck!
this is a really cool list. I might try running a couple copies of smashing ground instead of maybe the trunade and ceasefire. it would help for applying pressure with spirit reaper and helps deal with boards where your opponent is playing around lava golem
We love to see some big baby lava golem messing up with yugioh cardboards in all formats, this big baby is hungry! Feed him! 😂😂
Awesome video your one of my fav goat format youtubers :)
Yooo if im in the top 100 Id appreciate it thanks for watching and stay tuned for more

Fun deck!
JDZ went Yugi Mode
Im wait for a new version! Great deck of alllll tiiiime❤
You should put the "get in yo cage" meme song next time with the dogs and the bird
i would like to see some more lv1s, maybe some mofs
This deck idea is fire
I see what you did there!!

Dude that first duel with soul control was wild. He top decks perfectly, and then i wont say what happens next but woah lol 😉
game 2 did you always side out the 15 or there are games you stay with main build? Also what about game 3 if there is one will you turn back to lava golem if you change it in game 2? its kinda of a mindgame nightmare
sometimes I would stay with it depending on the matchup especially burn and most times warriors
This list is hot! 🔥🔥 Get in the cage!
right on
Im new to yugioh and goat is there a way we can get the decklist in the description?
BLAZE IT with the Golem, love to see it :D
Need Dank Magician next LOL
@@GoatFormat 3x Skilled Danks + 1x OG Dank + 3 Time Wizards seems like a pretty spicy start to a Yugi Chaos deck ;D
Oh wow
Can we have a list of this deck?
This was so awesome bro
Could of econ serp take dd att tomato banish both keep in game longer but opp def punted that lmao put him in the cage baby let's go!
I misplayed severely several times in this set
With reaper, goats, and ter you don’t really need gravity bind. I’d swap those out for solemn. Giant germs would be pretty good since you got tomatos. Maybe run creature swap as well.
Isn't this how Koelbel won back in 2005
obviously he changed the discard monsters for flip effects.
Vastly different decks
Why do people quit? Take the L like a good sport.
no judgements?
Oh so this is how you make a smokescreen sidedeck. To make them side in useless cards while you change the whole strategy.
Looks so Spicey ima build it and give it a go on the 🪜 my friend
Real Spice 😂
Compiles is a minus 1 tho
Sometimes it Can be. but if you use it in response to an opponent's card it's usually a one-for-one. In this build if you use lava golem and compule it back to your hand that is technically a plus value. Another benefit is compulse plus reaper poke is also a one for one plus tempo so not bad in this build.
only undefeated deck? edb is undefeated as well!
