"AGNUM DEI", means "LAMB OF GOD" in latin btw, and idk why they made it agnum "day", thats just weird, the ocg latin names of all cards were so much better (sequentia, lacrimosa, dies irae, in paradisum)
I think they wanted to avoid the Latin because of religious reasons but keep the same flavor of the names and they ended up with really dumb names that just suck unfortunately.
Bruh, is Mitsu becoming meta? Edit : they called it Agnumday because the original name would be controversial. It’s "Agnus Dei", God’s Lamb which is the name of Jesus Christ. Specifically Jesus as being crucified. Despite whatever the fuck is going on in the west, the Christian roots are still there and Konami doesn’t want to tickle them too much. Super Edit : In case you were wondering about whatever the new name could mean. "Day" is obviously a word play on "Dei". "Agnum" is still "Lamb" but at the accusative. It’s grammatically incorrect as the accusative can only appear with a verb. The lack of "S" also removes the immediate reference to the christic connotation when you hear it. So it’s technically the same thing, but it’s totally different.
@ To be fair, this one was too on the nose. And it’s kinda funny when you consider than Japan has a good amount of Christians as well Edit : NVM the Christians are 1.5% of the population.
I'm impressed that Mitsurugi is doing well with just the first wave. Maybe we'll finally have a good TCG exclusive archetype for the first time in years. RIP Ashened.
@@TheDBGrinder It would make Saji a one card combo depending on what the lvl 4 ritual does. Add ritual spell then use it to tribute Saji to summon a lvl 4 ritual from deck.

Ryzeal fiendsmith feels weird, the board is pretty easy to out and lacks followup compared to most decks. Also it very rarely OTKs so you just have another chance to break their boards. I'm surprised people still consider it the best deck.
@@D1minutiv3Theme if you play against an handtrap deck you endup with detonator and your own 1-2 HTs most time. Many decks right now have an easy out to detonator and you have no followup after if they stopped your Requiem with ash for example. Otherwise if you full combo against a board breaker deck like Striker maliss, 90% of the time, they just break it with eclipse talent anchor. Even if they don't OTK they kill followup with binder and you don't have the burst to OTK turn 3 so you end up losing turn 4. Obviously this doesn't happen every game but it's just how I feel a lot with the deck while playing against other meta. Especially Striker maliss feels super tough.
I play on DB Rated. The deck is disgusting sometimes especially if they Called by or Crossout your 1 handtrap on Duo Drive. If you think so lowly of Ryzeal Fiendsmith, I'd say the problem is with the people who you are playing against. Ryzeal Fiendsmith is already disgusting enough as it is, And it will be infinitely more unfair once Twins of the Eclipse is available
It's laughable that it's considered tier 1. The consistency is horrendous and the engine is too overrestricted versus what other engines get ask a guise to "balancing the strategy." If it was any other engine the field spell would've searched a Ryzeal, you wouldn't be rank 4 locked, and Ext wouldn't only be able to activate when there's a non-4 on field. Honestly though people just need to find the right 4s engine to go with it. Imo people are sleeping on Melodious Ryzeal since Ostinato grants removal and 2 level 4s without a normal summon.
Add 3 ogdoadic monsters, 1 daybreak, 1-2 snake rain, 2-3 parallel exceed and an almaraj in ED and the deck bricks less has 1 card combos and plays through more interruptions whilst still having like 13-14 HT
oh GOD no , that’s adding too much random stuff that you don’t need. also i don’t think i’d play a deck with only 14 non engine unless if the engine was EXTREMELY strong
@TheDBGrinder When it comes to topping a YCS, its either go meta or bust. People tell me that "Its not the deck, it's the pilot" I disagree on that to a certain extent. Take a rogue deck to a YCS event? Odds are you're not making the top tables. Best to take Ryzeal FS/Maliss Striker instead if you want to stand a chance

@@zenbozic6184 thats why rumpel tueful (laughing devil in german) didnt last
@@john_ygo loved that one, black goat laughs is okay but rumpel tuefel is so cool
feindsmith has taken over this game my god
imo, the only issue with that is that the Fiendsmith cards are so expensive.
Thank you Mr DB Grinder for more butterball
Perks of playing a rogue deck, the Ryzeal player wielded their interruptions in pretty much exactly the wrong way to lose game 3.

the latin names were so much cooler, sucks that they have to always skirt around religious themes even tho this archetype is so clearly inspired by it

@KeertikaAndFallenTree Few are active worshippers but christianity has a pretty firm cultural foundation in Japan.
bringing me back to high school latin with this one
yeah the deck is pretty decent and if we gonna make the name weird at least make it easy for me : (
14:34 I agree. I’ve won so many games by simply not scooping when it’s looking grim lol

Every TCG exclusive all have potential from their first wave lol, until they give them a dogshit fusion monsters and spells in their second wave.
Between Mimighoul and this, it feels like they're finally trying to make tcg exclusives playable again
@@ogeid772 mimighoul was hardly what i'd call playable
We need that decklist!!
Build it yourself instead of net decking lol
11:00 yeah solemn imperm seems weird, but we can see both players 's hands so that is the best play
AgNUMday
Edit: Thanks for pronouncing it right in the video a couple times ♥️

why? you get to ritual from deck
