*NOTE : I will now focus more on phantom of yubel content! i cant wait! :) The version with only legacy stuff in it is already a lot of fun to use but with phantom it gets crazy! .. a lot more crazy! ''The normal Yubel combo'' i mentioned a few times in the videos is : Throne -> Samsara -> Samsara to Spirit -> Spirit to set nightmare pain -> Nightmare pain pop spirit to add squirmer -> Activate both spirit and fieldspell so that you have squirmer in hand and both OG yubels on the field. i decided to skip that because i already did that 100 times in other videos and i wanted to save time but just in case a new yubel player is here, i wanted to atleast include it here :)
Another great video! Looking forward to your phantom of yubel and fiendsmith content🤩. Btw it would be great if you make a video about how to play under D.Shifter cuz Im struggling with that😅
"If I can at least help 2 or 3 people with that..." is also the reason I write those walls of text. I have nothing to add to the Gryphon lines but I want to emphasize how important I find some minor interactions: - NEVER FORGET PAIN DAMAGE REFLECTION AND MANDATORY ATTACKS ON YUBELS. - Muck has a protection effect (not even OPT) for your fiends like Gryphon, so if you can leave a Fiend in defense position you can save your board (Yubel/Lotus/Gryphon/Muck are Fiends) from Lightning Storm. Since Paidra stops battle damage anyway, I typically place Yubel in defense for that added bonus (or summon Terror in defense with Lotus) - Yama is invaluable in the GY for the opponent's turn. You get the flexibility to reverse OTK if Pain sticks to the board, get a free pop with the used Varudras by destroying it with the optional part after you revive a Fiend, un-bench your single OG Yubel and the list goes on. - TTTalent is in my opinion the best boardbreaker against the deck, that's why I hate ending on Apollo for 3. Giving your opponent 2 negates will stop both Promethean and Rage so you need to waste a handtrap on it, then the opponent can turn it into a free Zealantis and push for lethal. That's why instead of making Apollousa (x3) I prefer to sequence it like this (Apollousa endboard v.3 if you will): - Yama + Yubel + Gates on the board with Sharvara + Squirmer in hand - Sharvara pop Yubel, summon itself + Terror - Terror + Sharvara into Rage, Rage + Yama into Apo (x2) - Gates discard and revive then go from there Here if I want to use Yama in GY, I revive Spirit then Squirmer summons itself and pops Spirit to trigger Yama while getting Yubel on the field which is also a lvl10. If I go for a more protected endboard (anti-super poly + lightning storm) I discard Squirmer itself, then revive Spirit and with Squirmer I revive Yubel for Varudras (+ Rage via Chamber from the GY).
Thanks for your input, as always! And I agree with pretty much everything :) - And yes in theory the line you mentioned is better, the apo line shown in the video is only worth it if you really fear nibiru because it doesn’t give the opponent a good window to nib you. If you use sharvara, the opponent will most likely nib you as fast as they can and then it hurts a little bit more. That’s why I mentioned a few times in the video that it really depends on the match up/what you predict your opponent has in his hand if you want to go to the different lines.
@@TrinityYGO It depends on your playstyle. I would prefer to get Nibbed instead of letting them have the extra card in hand and pivot from Apollo into Gryphon (quick line: nib on sharvara, revive spirit with gates, ss squirmer pop spirit, yama revive sharvara spirit revive yubel, token + sharv into rage, rage + squirmer into anguish, anguish + nib into muck, muck revive anguish + yubel into Gryphon, squirmer revive yubel, end phase get lotus) like you have showed in a previous video. My biased play (2nd Yama, Escape instead of Chamber) especially when I know I wont be eaten alive by a Super Poly is to end on Rage + Escape + Varudras with the 2nd Yama in GY. I like this versus Snakes particularly because they get absolutely no value from TTTalent take, and you hit them exactly where it hurts (removing SnAsh + Oak without giving them a chance for Prom to revive them and get into Flam) while setting them up for reverse OTK due to Pain. I'm now experimenting with popping Muck and reviving it with Yama to get 2 materials worth of link (bypasses the "cant be used as link material on Muck) then going for Promethean but not having anything except Knightmare Phoenix hurts quite a bit. Finally about the Phantom/Fiendsmith build, I gave up both Promethean and Ty-phon, the ED space is too tight for all of them and I really missed a payoff on the followup. Can't wait to see your build!!!
I was just practicing gryphon lines last night and here you come with plays that are 10x better than the ones I came up with lol. Also my build is slowly becoming a net deck version of yours with a few small changes. What are your thoughts on chaos summoning beast? I tested it this past weekend and it played ok.
I don’t really like it, I kinda have the same opinion as you on it.. it’s "okay“ but nothing more, so I decided to cut it after testing and I never missed it! :)
Cant express just how much these videos have become a pillar of out community. You are a fantastic creator! Any thoughts on Hot Red Dragon Archfiend King Calamity for Yubel using crimson dragon and Cenrur-Ion Aluxila?
thanks for the kind words my friend, i really appreciate it! and ive actually tested it! i think its interesting but overall i dont think its worth it or better than the normal stuff :)
The problem with it is, that I do a lot of Yubel videos and it’s always the same so to save time I decided to cut it :) But In short to help you : Nightmare throne -> search samsars Samsara -> spirit -> spirit search nightmare pain Nightmare pain -> pop spirit, add grave squirmer Chain 1 Spirit, chain 2 Nightmare throne And with squirmer in hand.. that’s basically it!
@@carlosalvares3727 no sharvara only locks when it’s special summoned by its own effect. The princess is a fiend monster and when sharvara is special summoned back, his lock doesn’t apply anymore :)
Another great video! I'm looking forward to bringing Yubel to locals soon! I was messing around and found a line to get Gryphon along with Varudras and Rage with Yama still in grave off Throne and Gates. Instead of using Muckraker that early, just use Gates to summon Spirit, pop it with Sharvara, then summon Grave Squirmer. Link Sharvara and Squirmer into Rage, Squirmer revive Spirit, make Varudras, then reborn Yama with Muckraker to make Gryphon. However, I think your combo might be better for reasons you noted (layering interaction, dodging stuff)
thanks for your input and i hope the locals go well and that you have a lot of fun!! and yes, a lot is possible but in the 2 card combo the most important thing in my mind was to keep sharvara in hand to play around stuff (like you already referred to) but yep in theory, you can do A LOT if you use all the gas! :)
I was wondering about one other little thing - is there a good reason to summon Grave Squirmer before using Terror Incarnate and Yubel to make Yama? I know Nib doesn't hurt much, but getting Yama's effect to add Sharvara off on the 5th summon seems like good practice.
@@brom5555 I usually do that so I agree, I think it’s good practice :) I think I just forgot/didn’t payed attention to it in the gryphon combo! (During the apo combo, I did it for example)
What are your thoughts on Raging Phoenix? I’ve seen some plays regarding it and its package but I find Accesscode more enticing overall as it can do non interactable pops and easily hit more than Raging Phoenix. Unless there is more to it I am missing.
ive tested it and while its possible, the zealantis otk often times feels a little bit awkard and isnt as accessible as accesscode. sooo.. i agree with you! :) i
i just wanted to ask why you play amblowhale over duelittle chimera? with duelittle you can add back the sharvara so you can pop promethean princess to get rid of the fire lock and use your other interruptions.
If you play another fire link monster, amblo is fine. But I think it’s just my players preference, sometimes the amblo pop or the ATK comes up but overall I think chimera is also very good :)
Would it be possible to show a combo that uses Djinn Buster? Or in which situation do you summon Djinn Buster as your first XYZ and what would be your end board and how?
U use it if u open fieldspell and beast Normal beast add opening Activate opening crap beast Normal beast Overlay into djinn Activate fieldspell destroy samsara Opening effect discard random card , special samsara .. full combo
When Yubel comes to MD we are getting Phantom of Yubel and Loving defender but not Varudras, what do you recommend substituting out of the Extra deck for both of them?
Great video as usual! What are your thoughts on rising of running ultimate nightmare for the sake of sending on an apollousa, Varudras and ultimate nightmare on the field for attack protection as well as another body float from terror incarnate for more comboing? Really trying to decide if I wanna run it or not.
Ive tested ultimate nightmare a few times but I don’t really think it’s worth it. While it’s cool to play it, it’s another brick and rarely comes up. Maybe that changes in the future but as of now : we don’t really need it! :)
@@TrinityYGO cheers mate, im trying to optimise my deck, you help plenty! Even took out eternal favorite and went for x2 nightmare pain and X1 mature chronicle for even less bricking
Unfortunately, Im pressed for space in the extra deck to run Gryphon. -Unchained package (2 cards) -Fiendsmith package (5 cards, can maybe cut Fiendsmith Lacrimosa) -Final Bringer of End Times -2 Phantom of Yubel -Djinn Buster -Appo -S:P -Cross Sheep -Yubel the loving defender (Could also maybe cut this as well)
Yep the extra deck gets really tight with fiendsmith but the gryphon is 100% possible to run with them! :) The princess is another topic but I will talk about everything in the fiendsmith video once the release is closer so keep an eye out for that! :)
I was wondering, how often does amblowhale's second effect come up? Since we become fire locked after princess summon the ambo seems like a bit of a waste, are we just using it as a big body? I run duelittle chimera and it saves space as i dont need to run hiita but I am really interested in your opinion into which is better.
It comes up very rarely. I remember 2 situations where the opponent had to play really weird or not at all because of it. The bigger body can come up too here and there but I think it’s just my personal preference. Chimera might be better! Both have advantage and disadvantages, if you don’t want to run any additional fire monster then it’s 100% chimera :)
The terror (not incarnate) on the Branded player's face as soon as they realize you get your Ash Blossom back for their turn 4 (even IF they survive) is absolutely priceless.
I don't understand, if i special summon when Gryphon point I can activate the effect? The activation of the effect isn't possible only for link moster that can co-link?
you can activate every effect from monsters that are linked. they dont have to be co-linked :) so : yes, if you special summon to a zone the gryphon points to, you can activate the effect!
i think there are a few good staples like ghost ogre and other stuff but thats nothing specific with yubel :) i dont think there is anything special in there that wasnt before in yubel!
@@jaredvallejo1463 you have to utilize cards that work great under it. For example samsara or if you activated spirit you can chain squirmer to then destroy the spirit - so it resolves! Also nightmare pain is a big reason why it’s playable in the first place :) you can still run into the opponent even while skill drain is flipped and they will get the damage!
Once Phantom of Yubel comes out it may be best to cut the princess package. Extra deck space is so tight and that card is cracked, I feel like you need at minimum 2 copies
ive already cooked up some decklists and thought about the decks and i can spoil one thing : ive found a way where we still can play the princess package while including 2 phantom of yubel! Fiendsmith is another topic but i dont want to spoil everything yet! :)
We really badly need Phantom of Yubel. Recently went 2nd place in a tournament and it's just so fun to lick all the tears. With Phantom around, people will prolly quit, lol. No mercy for Dickshifter spammers
Hot take but I would suggest you play the deck as if Phantom doesn't exist. This is the icing on the cake, and if you learn how to get the full value of the deck this way, you can have Phantom as insurance instead of trying to min-max Phantom then burn it for winmore combo lines and needlessly hurt your follow-up. This was why I initially didn't like Crossheep plays, but then after revisiting them, I shifted to using it as a recovery tool instead of an extender. However with Fiendsmiths, which gives us Beatrice for Yubel access in every Unchained/Fiendsmith combo line, the extra deck space has become extremely tight.
@@babrad Playing it as if it doesn't exist, once it's out, would just be willingly cripple yourself for absolutely no reason. That's like playing Branded without Branded Fusion or "using it as your last resort", really. The whole Fiendsmith thing I'm not a fan of at all and I don't play that either. I don't play to win more but with decreased chances, I play to actually win in the most optimal way possible.
@@Luna-Starfrost I meant burning Phantom needlessly. For example in the featured lines here, as soon as you make Yama and Nib is live (while you have Squirmer in hand + Sharvara in hand + Gates revive), you can safely spin back Terror + Beckoning for Phantom and perform the regular combo instead of going for a win-more board. The difference in Phantom and BraFu is that the latter is a 1 card full combo (optimal starter) while Phantom is an end board piece that I have seen time and time again getting used up needlessly for an Apo or something, while with the same investment you could have just got Lotus back and even keep Yama in GY.
@@Luna-Starfrost to be less confusing, think of the opponent using Nib on Yama when you can go for Apo. From that point, you can utilize the Nib token + Squirmer in GY or Gates revive, make Sheep, make Phantom, get a link material then do your Apo regardless. That play could also be an Accesscode using it offensively. But instead of that, every 1/2 card wombo combo video will show you to end on literally everything (Apo Varudras Rage Escape Phantom Caesar) by playing into every handtrap in existence and even using up to 3 Phantoms (and Yama in gy) all during turn 1 leaving you with no followup when it isn't even needed to go that hard. Edit: this is why I believe this channel offers objectively the best content for Yubel, since it takes into account the opponent's potential interaction and almost simulates a "competitive experience".
@@babrad I legit do not care about what other channels say if it goes against the strategy that works for me. I tried out many things, like tons of them. And no channel that is run by an at least decent player will tell you to play without Phantom, one of the archetypes strongest cards, what are you on about lol With Phantom I even get card advantage out of Nibiru, as using Phantom against Nibiru results directly in at minimum another Phantom. If a Yugituber tells me to not use that or even recommends it, then he's probably as much to be taken serious like Teamsamuraifucktheworld. Apollousa I never ran in the first place in any variant of it cause it takes Extra Deck space that can be used much better and finds almost zero use in Yubel centered decks. In fiendsmith, you don't focus on Yubel but on everything else, so I'm not counting that.
no, youre only fiend locked if sharvara is summoned by its own effect, since its back on the field because of the princess, the lock doesnt apply anymore :)

The difference in Phantom and BraFu is that the latter is a 1 card full combo (optimal starter) while Phantom is an end board piece that I have seen time and time again getting used up needlessly for an Apo or something, while with the same investment you could have just got Lotus back and even keep Yama in GY.
@@Luna-Starfrost to be less confusing, think of the opponent using Nib on Yama when you can go for Apo.
From that point, you can utilize the Nib token + Squirmer in GY or Gates revive, make Sheep, make Phantom, get a link material then do your Apo regardless. That play could also be an Accesscode using it offensively.
But instead of that, every 1/2 card wombo combo video will show you to end on literally everything (Apo Varudras Rage Escape Phantom Caesar) by playing into every handtrap in existence and even using up to 3 Phantoms (and Yama in gy) all during turn 1 leaving you with no followup when it isn't even needed to go that hard.
Edit: this is why I believe this channel offers objectively the best content for Yubel, since it takes into account the opponent's potential interaction and almost simulates a "competitive experience".
@@babrad I legit do not care about what other channels say if it goes against the strategy that works for me.
I tried out many things, like tons of them. And no channel that is run by an at least decent player will tell you to play without Phantom, one of the archetypes strongest cards, what are you on about lol
With Phantom I even get card advantage out of Nibiru, as using Phantom against Nibiru results directly in at minimum another Phantom. If a Yugituber tells me to not use that or even recommends it, then he's probably as much to be taken serious like Teamsamuraifucktheworld.
Apollousa I never ran in the first place in any variant of it cause it takes Extra Deck space that can be used much better and finds almost zero use in Yubel centered decks. In fiendsmith, you don't focus on Yubel but on everything else, so I'm not counting that.
Wait 2 nightmare throne????
Top left is the missing one! It just wasn’t sorted :)
@@TrinityYGO oh thank goodness. I wasn't ready for that explanation. Just finished. Incredible work as always! Thanks
@@Synapse32 thanks my friend!
This video comes too late :(
:( you had a tournament the past few days or what’s the reason?
You can’t go into Amblo, you’re fiend locked
no, youre only fiend locked if sharvara is summoned by its own effect, since its back on the field because of the princess, the lock doesnt apply anymore :)
@@TrinityYGO yes sorry had to rewatch that, you are right my bad
