@@hawkticus_history_corner The Dog prevents the effect like Amano or Empen, but it needs very specific situation and your opponent can play around it easily if they read.

Doggo is not there for his field effect but for his effect to Special Summon himself to a column that your opponent tries to dodge to as a way to make your other S-Force effects live.

Your opponent summons a Super Heavy Samurai in ATK(Most of them have an ability to immediately go to Def on Normal Summon) you chain Dog and slap it down in the new column they summoned it in.

Very late to the party is it not debatable to run emergency teleport for digamma? It’s an extender for going first so you could actually normal summon your higher level stuff, it doesn’t play into thrust or talents if you use it as interruption, and also it’s free link material.
I can't believe there were like 4 separate instance of Joe reading a card and going "oh ok this is pretty good, I see how the deck wins" before realizing he missed something that actually makes the card useless. What an unfortunate archetype.
I ran into S Force like twice the first time was just weird and I had no clue how they worked. The second time I had a slight grasp and I think that was more than my opponent.
I'd love it if this becomes a series, get to see some of the unseen decks because they were drowned by the meta when they released or, like S-Forces, inherently not really good.
Unfortunate timing for the video, since I'm pretty sure the new support comes out in a week on MD. For reference to those playing the deck when we have Retroactive and Lapcewell, you really REALLY want to get to Isolde. She summons Chiyo from deck and adds Retroactive to hand, and you can still use Retroactive's hand and GY effects even under Isolde. The deck is very normal summon reliant, so you want to be using special summon engines like Terrortop or in particular the Sky Striker engine, which puts a Warrior on the board for Isolde. I'd avoid the normal 1-card Isoldes like Squeaknight because they do use your normal. Edea's not very good for the same reason. Magicians' Souls is another great one. It dumps Platina from the deck and draws you cards off the field spell. It's a very big plus to your end boards, because instead of summoning Platina off Chiyomaru, you can summon Lapcewell, who grabs Platina from the GY. With how much trouble the deck has just getting materials on the board, it being a free special is also huge. Magicians' Souls plus Engage is pretty much full combo without even using your normal summon. The deck is THE Small World deck, everything searches everything else. You can run power 1-ofs like Terrortop specifically because they're searchable via Small World (this is also why you like to run Dog Tag, it bridges to a strangely high number of things).
if i'm not mistaken you can use Isolde and the Retroactive from hand to have Justify as a negate. What equips do you run to send with Isolde? eddit: forgot Justify need 3 monsters, it realy is not good as boss monster hun?
@@prinnynaito Justify needing 3 is so bad, yeah. It's a flat -1 to your end boards a lot of the time when it really shouldn't be. I usually run Living Fossil and DDR but I think Overdone Burial would also work for the deck. If you do decide to run a normal summon Isolde package like Sublimation Knight obviously you can run equips that let you get to those easier.
@@giantstrawman543 Sublimation Knight as an Isolde engine sucks dick cause of Squeaknight's "you can only summon from the ED *once* for the rest of the turn" restriction. So Isolde will be the only thing you make that turn. The good Normal engine for Isolde is 3 Neo Space Connector and one Aqua Dolphin. Normaling Connector summons Dolphin and you can use its effect to destroy a handtrap and look at their whole hand, so you'll know what to expect.
@@giantstrawman543 Understandable lol. I know firsthand how bad it is cause I wanted to use it in Infernobles, since it fits the theme so perfectly, but man, that restriction is so bad...
So reading over Chiyomaru, the difference appears to be as follows: In the TCG, Chiyomaru locks your opponent's monsters into attacking the S-Force Monster in the same column as them (I have no clue how this works with multiple S-Force monsters in the same column via Links. The fact that it says "that monster" makes me think there's an attack lock involved with this if any S-Force and Justify are in the same column as a given monster, as opposed to "those monster(s)", which would suggest that you would be allowed to target either of them, especially since this deck released as a Link deck from the get-go, but someone can correct me if I'm wrong) In the OCG, Chiyomaru locks your opponent's monsters into attacking monsters in the same column as them. Monsters, as in generically, meaning it would also apply to something along the lines of a Knightmare Phoenix or something dumb like that, just as long as there is an S-Force in its column With that aside, checking the text of the card on Master Duel, it appears to use the TCG version rather than the OCG version, although it is entirely possible it just grabbed the first available translation given that there's still several cards on Master Duel without PSCT
Great vid Hardleg. Although I don't understand not including the cards we know are still coming, since they a known certainty and it would prevent the video from losing relevance when they do.
S-force main is okay, Justify isn't good boss. There are some link-3 with requirements 3 monsters, and most of them are crazier like Tri-Heart, BLS link-3, Curious, Infinitrack, & The Weather. . I think S-force need bosses like Plunder Patroll, because both of them need to discard specific arctype card to use their effect. S-force need something easier to recycle their card and refill their hand.
@@renaldyhaen I have often seen either the BLS or just Knightmare Unicorn as a Link 3 to run. 3 is a bit more to commit to than 2 and usually isn't the end of a Link 4 line by itself. Link 4s are absolutely crazy sometimes.

Justify is such a funny card, unless the enemy has a link arrow to your side, you cannot link summon anything else unless you use Justify as material because of its link arrow only pointing to the other side.

S-Force needs a monster with a better column effect to really do well. Like, negate the effects of monsters in the same column ilas an S-Force card. One of them almost does that, but it's only during your turn. It seems like when Konami made this archetype, they had a really good concept, but then they thought, "nope, we can't make this too good. Let's tone the effects down a little bit so they aren't broken." But then they toned it down too much and the deck sucks.

This was one of the first decks I was interested in when I got back into the game. Figuring out just how bad they were and trying to compensate for it was a really good learning experience. To this day I'm still a fan of "soft" floodgates that don't shut your opponent out of the game on their own, but can be nasty when accompanied by other interaction. Thanks for the walk down memory lane Joe!
That reminds me of the Mekk-Knight backrow that can basically be infinite negates at point of resolution. Can combo insanely well with Indigo Eclipse and even World Legacy's Secret can combo with itself.
After watching this last night, I tried Branded S-Force in EDOPro and it relly really better. With 2-card combo Rappa & Branded Fusion you can get 2+ (up to 5) S-Forces on the field with Chase. I write 2+, because from there you can summon more monsters in opponent turn. It's up to you to summon more monsters or use Chase first. And if you have another S-Force in hand, the endboard will be better. . BUT, we really need Lapcewell and Retroactive to do this combo. Especilly Retroactive, she is the key of 2-card combo and summon more monsters in opponent's turn.
I would love to see hardleg's approach to a deck like dragunity, a largely unsolved combo deck featuring nessisary 1ofs and incidental synergy from a dozen different archetypes
Id love to see this for a combo oriented zefra deck, where the path sometimes isnt very clear because you can include cards from outside the archetype too, since pend kinda have their own thing when it comes to deckbuilding
S-Force realy needs Retroactive and Lapcewell as the level 1 is a link extendor that can summon the a S-Force from the hand on opponets turn and be banished for eff on the GY and Lap has the highest non-extra atack and a monster destroing eff
I'm hopeing they come out with another link soon why do I absolutely love all the the Rouge decks and their mechanics I'll never know time theif and traptrix so fun along with unchained and evil eye
Actually you can summon more monster if we get Lapcewell and still have Justify on the field. . But, they need something to recycle their control card and refill hand, because you always need something (specific) to use monster effect. And they need more flexible interruption besides Chase, Oracffist isn't enough and he isn't good.
My method: play everything at 3 add some cards you believe have synergy and test, iterations will make the deck better over time, and if you got an AI to test against you can do as many as you like 😅
if only they didn't skip the battle of chaos last part he would have used the 2 last monsters which really help a lot, i wouldn't say it makes it good but it gets way better
They HAVE to get into master duel in the next selection pack, right? They're almost done with all the Battle of Chaos cards, so they can start printing anything else. And already are giving us the rest of tactical masters in a single pack too, after giving us vaylantz and a bunch of other meh stuff.
@@KuroeNezumi i personally liked the scareclaw, but yeah i also wanted some suff from that last part of battle of chaos, like the muytant and the lady of lament (that they skipped knowing very well that a trap event was coming)
for the purposes of HERO decks where the important Fusion monsters are at least L8, would "Despia, Theatre of the Branded" be a good field spell to start with, even though it's not fully used? I feel like Skyscraper (I/II), Dark City, and Clocktower Prison don't do much.
I love S-Force but unfortunately they are not great. DPE used to be my boss monster for the archetype back when Verte was a thing & was needed to win ganes
It really is unfortunate, I like sforce alot they have cool mechanics, but it feels like they were too scared to commit to the effects. Like every card is close to being strong but a few words that feel slapped on afterwards ruin it pretty hard. If they had more interrupt cards or a batter toolbox I think it would work but even the newer cards have weird out of place conditions :/ Hopefully one day they get another wave that rounds em all out better as a solid toolbox control deck. And as the game grows there is even more fun to be had with the art so who knows. Probably not but it doesn't feel like a totally unsalvageable archetype either. Also my biggest problem with justify, they could have just said "neither player can special summon to zones this cards points to" and it would have been a good lockdown effect and prevented extra link. Just strange honestly.
Yeah, because we don't have Lapcewell in Master Duel yet. Those banisher cards are really good on this deck now, like DimShifter and DimFissure, Macro not really good because you want your traps in GY too. Because all S-Force that you discard will be summonable with Pla-tina. For now, if your S-Force goes to GY, it's like a dead card. Chaos is good too, but you need S-Force as much as possible to discard and optimize their column effect.
I gotta say, they may be often forgotten, but I appreciate S-Force! I mean, it's because I'm a War Rock player and S-Force is the only reason I can claim War Rock isn't the worst archetype in the last two years, but still!
I just created an account to build S-Force a day or two before Thanksgiving. The deck is a lot of fun but not great. I even tried to figure out some odd options due to the column nonsense. Things like Wattkinetic Puppeteer and a meme (since S-Force clearly needs more jank to improve it) in Center Frog and Mimiclay, since I was already focused on moving my opponents minions around the board. Curious to see what you come up with.
Fun fact: S-Force occupies the same universe as Time Thief, I.P. Masquerena, and Psyframe.

You could play ground collapse so your opponent doesn't have free columns, maybe not the best idea but there it is
Really love this new series. Would be nice to know if the new cards fixed some of the issues you found.
I feel like in the more column control based thing iron dragon tiamaton could help
It's time for S force
I love S-Force but unfortunately they are not great. DPE used to be my boss monster for the archetype back when Verte was a thing & was needed to win ganes
It really is unfortunate, I like sforce alot they have cool mechanics, but it feels like they were too scared to commit to the effects. Like every card is close to being strong but a few words that feel slapped on afterwards ruin it pretty hard.
If they had more interrupt cards or a batter toolbox I think it would work but even the newer cards have weird out of place conditions :/
Hopefully one day they get another wave that rounds em all out better as a solid toolbox control deck. And as the game grows there is even more fun to be had with the art so who knows. Probably not but it doesn't feel like a totally unsalvageable archetype either.
Also my biggest problem with justify, they could have just said "neither player can special summon to zones this cards points to" and it would have been a good lockdown effect and prevented extra link. Just strange honestly.
oh heck yes a new lets build!
As an S-Force one trick, this hurt
if the monsters banish for cost and can be special summoned from there, why not use Dimensional Shifter / Dimensional Fissure + Chaos support ?
Yeah, because we don't have Lapcewell in Master Duel yet. Those banisher cards are really good on this deck now, like DimShifter and DimFissure, Macro not really good because you want your traps in GY too. Because all S-Force that you discard will be summonable with Pla-tina. For now, if your S-Force goes to GY, it's like a dead card. Chaos is good too, but you need S-Force as much as possible to discard and optimize their column effect.
Would a S-Force Mekknight deck featuring Ground Collapse work?
Run 3 Chiyomaru because she cute, ez
They're slightly better than weather painters but slightly worse than mekk knights
Ah yes good ol Mekk knight at home.
I once tried to build this deck, ended up playing a weird magical musketeers s force hybrid. The sforce cards were definitely the weakest link.
IDC wat anyone says S-Force is baddass and unique. Ya just so headstrong on playing meta🥱🙄
Finally a worthy opponent for my Time Thieves...
pog, i just started playing this deck it is so cool
maybe someday we can see joe do a video on Vernusylph, i can see him like it
Literally a duellinks deck
I gotta say, they may be often forgotten, but I appreciate S-Force! I mean, it's because I'm a War Rock player and S-Force is the only reason I can claim War Rock isn't the worst archetype in the last two years, but still!
I love it when ppl don’t kno what they’re talking about… “Xyzs is useless here…?” Oooookkkkk😐🍿
This was a fun video keep up the good work.
U need to do more of these
Sforce and ground collapse
Can you do a z-arc deck for your next challenge. I made one and it is pretty fun.
S-Force = dollar store Mekk-Knights
where can i get that card skin you use on omega
Howdy Hardleg I was wondering what sim are you playing on?
YGO Omega
He could mix in ojamas
water enchantress effect
What program is he using?
YGO Omega
Their Link is actually crazy its a shame it's archetype is so bad at supporting it.
Wait where's retro?
Why is it all in rush duel style
Mod to change art styles
I thought it looked nicer
I just created an account to build S-Force a day or two before Thanksgiving. The deck is a lot of fun but not great. I even tried to figure out some odd options due to the column nonsense. Things like Wattkinetic Puppeteer and a meme (since S-Force clearly needs more jank to improve it) in Center Frog and Mimiclay, since I was already focused on moving my opponents minions around the board.
Curious to see what you come up with.
Boutta add Yajiro Invader and Goldilocks for their shmovement gimmicks
Didn't even think of those two. Hmmm Musical Sumo Dice Games. Wonder if there is a way to incorporate it.
morally speaking; no, let's not
I guess the S stands for shit
Cool video! Helped me learn more how to build decks on my own.
I'm curious, though. Why Yugioh Omega and not EDOPro?
Omega looks cooler, and I can bring the cards up in big HD art in the center of the screen.
@@HardlegGaming Ah ok, makes sense. Thanks!
Aw fuck :( I thought that link monster did prevent them summoning in their own zone. Trash. Ima break down the deck now 😂
I hit past 1 minute in, DAMNIT
wouldn't cynet mining be cracked? they are all cyberse
They aren't all Cyberse, just Razor and Orafice.
You can't extralink with a v wtf?
You can, theoretically, if we had the right arrows.
Sforce
Thanks for representing the absolute garbage decks, you are a true pillar of the community!
Dino dna
This deck in duel link is busted coz duel link only got 3 monster zone
POLICE!
S Force are just absurdly terrible. They do so little. Maybe ojama trio/duo to corral the opponents zones???
Wow they kinda feel like link ice barrier. Bad cards with riddiculusly bad floodgate efffects. Kinda sad that they wasted these artworks.
That is exactly what they are
S P O R T S
YEEEEEEEESSSS
MD is still missing two cards for this archetype
Copium Force
Subpar force lol
