    Purple is a color that needs the most experimentation because of its deeper use of tools and mechanics compared to most other colors in the game. So purple hybrid should be seeing more play because of that making a harder deck to build.
    But exploration tends to stop when players realize it might not be good enough in the current meta

    I can agree I'm ready to get my pitchfork out for nueme. I don't think they'll release a new list until after BT17 drops in English. But seeing the distance between the top two decks and the next 3 decks, some things gotta give.

    The question is WHY. Why is it taking this long to hit the deck? I just don't see any feasible reason why they would not have already hit it. Its killing the game for many more people than it would if they outright banned cards from the deck. All they have to do is choice restrictions on the problem cards being Ukkomon, or maybe limit Monzaemon X.

    • @Gorerend

      I can only imagine its due to the accelerated release schedule that they may be holding off so the West can play the upcoming decks at full strength, but in the end theres no real way to say whats the hold up.
      Would definitely like to see both Ukko’s fully axed, Emissary of Hope Limited, and then see where that leaves things

If Monzaemon X or Numemon X were hit the deck would still lumber along and it would do nothing to AGaruru. Gotta hit the egg hatchers.

    I wanna point out that for AncientGarurumon deck, theres currently a ruling that Takuya&Koji having Lobomon attack after the [End of Turn] timing means AncientGarurumon wont die at the end of the turn, making the deck even more powerful. Hopefully they backtrack that ruling though

      How does this even work? You would evo off of Lobo effect, you can attack end of turn with the tamer inherit, process all when attacking effect, but you have to resolve the end of turn self delete before the attack finishes so you would fade the attack. Ancient doesnt magically not get deleted

    • @FireShadow210
      @FireShadow210 Місяць тому

      @captingamer29 that's how it should work as a Pending Process imo. But Carddass have ruled it as needing to exist at the trigger timing to be processed. So because Lobomon creates the pending process after the [End of Your Turn] trigger timing, it isn't processed

    • @notdwaddler2013
      @notdwaddler2013 Місяць тому

      If its set as an End of Turn effect, then you can still choose how its processed if there's others. And because both are EoT effects, the TakuKoji can just be set to go first and have one more hit resolve before the EoT deletion.
      Its not immortal, the effect's just put off so the first can resolve if chosen. The hell'd you hear that ruling from?

    I haven't messed with Gallantmon Ace in actually play yet funny enough, but I can see where letting go of EX2 crimson feels hard as the massive dp you can encounter in a lot of decks the ability to delete highest dp valuable over 15k. It's risky though. I would be worried I'd brick with a top end as heavy as that deck which is why I cut mine down.

    When it comes to the bans and limits I think something in numemon HAS to go as it has so many problematic tools it is playing with it makes me wonder why they were printed to begin with.
    Ukkomon was a mistake and both need to be limited, The extra resources and acceleration of the raising area only pushes aggro to new heights. Who cares about the rogue decks when they are not meta anyway with significantly less people playing them as is. The goal post is just moved and the gap never shrinks between the best decks and the rogue decks so it literally makes 0 difference when it comes to the generic tools.
    I know some people really dont want to hit the X and want gere and RB01 monzae but they are delusional and the problem is the X cards because of how the rest of the deck plays. Gere sets the deck up but nume X is what enables it to begin with to revive the plat for free memory and a floating level 6. RB01 monzae is the best base monzea but monzae X is what is actually control the field and spawning new bodies to push the control and without RB01 it is just making the control a little harder needing more bodies but again not stopping the problem. The 2 X cards they got are what is making the deck the way it is more than anything.
    If both ukkomons and the X's are hit i think that will be enough to stop numemon from being the best deck as it already has other tools like EX05 etemon that is likely not to get touched and enough of a play style shift that isnt killing the deck just needs a revisit.
    The yellow patamon engine is just broken and something from that should go and i dont know anything about ancient garuru to talk about that.

      For the Vaccine Engine you start with Hitting Emissary of Hope, the card is the single lynch pin thatll continually dominate the design space of yellow for any future decks cause itll always be a question of “ok but is it vaccine?” Since its arguably as busted as HPD was for its resource cheating. If with Emissary hit and theres still persistent problems then ya hit TK, those are pretty much the two biggest offenders in yellow currently that either limit design or implementation of deck ideas.

If you don’t think Patamon is aproblem, then you aren’t utilizing the card properly. Hpd is way better than emissary because you don’t have to set it up and it’s a completely free evo. Just because you have TK which gives you the option to set up emissary, you normally need to have already set up your combo the turn beforehand. Plus you won’t always have tk, and even if you do, you have to prioritize setting up patamon before emissary. The only broken thing about emissary is going into magna x for 1, but it doesn’t really matter because 9 times out of 10 you are going to just awakening into Magna X anyway. And if that already doesn’t tell you that Emissary is mid, then I don’t know what will. There won’t be many better yellow vac targets for emissary than magna and rapid X for a while.

    I’ve been playing numemon for long while now and have a slightly different take on it. I’m going to make the argument for limiting rb1 monzae and the draw geremon. I really don’t want ukko banned bc it allows creative rogue decks like machinedramon and shakamon to live. These two pieces for me personally have been the 10% advantage that put the deck over the edge and wouldn’t kill the deck bc there’s lesser replacements.

      @Oops-All-Agumon Місяць тому

      I think this is a bad take that doesn't fix the issues with the deck on why it is overperforming so long.
      Without RB01 monzae the deck uses BT14 and while it sucks and BT14 isnt as strong nothing really changes as most of the time the on play gain 2 and tuck a source the the big appeal to the card because it can get played off plat nume. Sure the DP minus makes the removal harder but if it can swarm efficiently because of monzae X that literally doesnt matter as much.
      Then Gere is just to put the plat in the trash the draw helps but because of ukkomon and the eggs that is arguably where most of the decks draw power is. So nothing is stopping me from using BT15 gere to get that discard then with an ukkomon raising play before that set up the draw engine to use X over the gere and still cycle through the deck. it just makes it so i dont want to throw away my rookies to aggro as much but nume X will still let me play the plat all the same which is the issue. BT11 gere isnt.

      Monzae and Gere offer a speed and recovery to the deck that I think nerfing would be good. I think that it would also change the direction of the deck toward people playing more weremonzae’s which in turn would make threatening valk ace less consistent (bc you don’t always have the monzae x) and I think that removing gere would push people toward purple base which has its own flaws.

      As for the direction of the deck you are so wrong about how players would adapt. BT14 monzae and BT15 Gere is what people would use and nothing really changes too much about the deck. GFG tyler and JP kinda already showed that BT15 gere is a good card already. and BT14 monzae while worse than the others is on color and still offers that 2 memory gain while having his own protection to make acing easier.
