2:45 Hey MBT! :) "DeathJester" here. My brother told me he saw one of my old articles on YT. Loved the video the man! Really took me back. Those were the good ol' days. Thanks for the mention!
Despite getting blown out in the first Reaper format tournament (do not play Skill Drain Beatdown, I didn't win a single round lol) I really enjoy this format! It feels like a more expansive Goat format without the irritation of the Trinity, though Confiscation does gum up some games.
@@FabiTheNoob NICE I was pondering whether Wicked Breaking Flamberge would be, like, at all playable because of the power of effect negation. I think it does suffer from not doing anything against stuff like Spirit Reaper though. ...Huh, Ancient Gear Beast's battle protection is actually relevant with all the Sakus running around. Cool
@@NARFNra That was basically my reasoning for including it. Being immune to e.g. Sakaretsu and negating recruiters, flipps and treeborn is really nice. (It’s biggest weakness imo is that it’s a tribute monster that looses to cyber dragon)
Others are commenting on this format's wonderful variety and fun factor, I want to add I went x2 with a deck I slapped together in 10 minutes with a terrible side. You can counter anything in this format if you build accordingly. It's less sacky than GOAT but still has some haymakers, and the Discord is a big breath of fresh air.
6:40 eh, that is not my list. I was on THREE radiant l. It helps you otk while your own floodgates are up. And wombat is in the side. Also I was not on saks they were actually compulses.

To anyone curious about getting into Reaper I'll just say this: I played a goofy Ninjutsu Art of Transformation deck in the Tournament and went 2-4. Frankly it would been 3-3 if one game my opponent didn't have Stein glued to their hand, or if I hadn't bricked in an incredibly specific manner in the last game. Basically, you can play some pretty silly stuff and actually do all right, Like, Ultimate Insect Turbo isn't awful. Think about that.
Reaper is actually one of the two things I vividly remember from the GX world championship video games, the other is Future Fusion into Dragon Mirror FGD turbo
and there's still several decks that are in the format that have yet to be shown off Trust me there's a lot more decks that have already come out of the woodwork since the tournment started.
@@murray5105 And Thousand eyes is far less prevalent and Chaos Sorc isn't everywhere. Seriously, the lack of Trinity really changes how this plays, plus the new cards introduced do matter
@@murray5105 it's actually got a lot more things going for it then just that. Cyber Dragon doesn't break the format, there's a lot of decks that got support pieces that were printed just a little bit later. Also it's a solid way to see if it's worth playing older formats. I actually run a solid spellcaster take on monarch in the format and you know what even with all the good stuff from goat there's exactly 1 card takes the deck better that's not in goat care to take a guess what it is. Magical dimension, makes that deck really good because of the extra damage but sadly it wasn't in the TCG until the end of reaper. Gotta say though Reaper and Goat have helped each other some considering the overlap in cards for decks.
@@hawkticus_history_corner My issue is the format is still just good card mixes and Chaos. No archetypes yet and no clear strategies. But at least Goat has flip control.
This is great! It's the old-school Goat-Format experience, but with a more expansive card pool and with some of the frustrating nonsense taken out that really plagues Goat.
Well I just spent a while after this thinking what deck I would play and then realized (if I'm not mistaken) that ultimate offering is at 3 and ready to be used alongside penguin soldier, nightmare penguin, mind crush and Spiritual Water Art - Aoi. Might actually be able to make a reasonable penguin/water control deck...
its amazing how games work backwards nowadays. Cardgames like Yugioh goes back to old formats, hearthstone released Classic format. MMO's go back to the roots like Runescape and Classic wow. As a 30 year old boomer, this is so much fun
Please come join the reaper format discord! The mod team have been working super hard to help run events, answer questions and make it a fun friendly environment.
This looks so fun! I also personally love the Speed Duel printings. I feel like it’s only a matter of time before people look at the water mark positively like they do the Duel Terminal one.
The world championship 2006 video game is this format, if anyone wants to mess around with it on their own. Pot of Greed is legal, because it uses the OCG list, but you have access to treeborn.
I made top 16 using monarchs. Deck is very versatile and fun, but I feel it's just a step above the power level of the rest of the format. We'll see how it goes for future events though. There's definitely some tech cards that can be implemented, especially if everyone starts running monarch.
I played Monarchs against a zombie deck and it was probably my favorite match of the whole tournament! I'm planning on at least workshopping a zombie list myself after that
Zombies are seeing a lot of exciting development on the discord, personally I managed to go 5-2 with a pretty suboptimal build so I think it's for sure a meta contender.
i got curb stomped yesterday playin goat narch against multiple chaos control decks n wow who woulda guessed I was the only one not playing the best deck
Proud to have represented Uria Fire Princess with no sideboard due to a misclick. 85th place BABEY Sadly, the Uria Turbo channel has gone, lost to the mists of time... like if you remember :pensive: For real though, really cool format, it's been awesome to see how things have gone.
I played Monarchs + Last Will and it came up quite a bit, it's a really really fun tool but it can be a dead card in top-deck situations. Sooooo, pretty good but not always insane.
Where's the link to the Yugi season zero deck box? There's nothing called "scapegoat" (provided I heard you correctly) in the video description? (Unless I missed it?)
I can’t believe Konami left a broken card like Steam Gyroid at 3 in this format smh. All it takes is Dark Hole+Cyber Stein effect+Megamorph+Limiter Removal and it can OTK. Its interaction with Milus Radiant means it can hit over Monarchs and Jinzo. Personally I play Steamroid and Gyroid so I can fuse them with Power Bond for an even stronger Steam Gyroid and intimidate my opponent. Why everyone doesn’t do this I’ll never understand. Broken!
You get the Milus as one of your two monsters off of Rescue Cat (or, if you're doing a Cat/Will play, you can get both among your Cat summons). Remember, in Reaper Format, Rescue Cat had not been errata'd yet, so it did not negate the effects of the monsters it brought out. That's also why The Wicked Worm Beast has a function in that deck; because its effect is not negated, you can choose to resolve The Wicked Worm Beast's effect prior to resolving Cat's lingering "destroy those monsters at the End Phase".
Despite losing my last round to last turn turbo, I enjoyed this format. Confi is annoying tho. I'm hoping to improve my list for next tournament and get top 16
I’m getting the itch to play again. A shame db and edopro aren’t screen reader friendly. Ah well, least I still got vids to ease said itch. Though I still would like to play janky exodia in that format for the lolz

1:34 literally the reason I quit yugioh. Basically it was spend 100s of dollars to get yet another extra deck, play exclusively online to see the same thing over and over again (I know it's like that for most games but dragon ruler format was especially bad), or be content with never winning a game of yugioh again. I chose the 4th option of gtfo.

Go to Format Library's website go to their FORMATS tab and click "Mar 2010 - Edison", once you're on the Edison page you can click the link at the top of the page that says "Use this link for the card pool (Beta):" once there you can sort by Reaper format
