Dan Sen you guys go straight back to where you came from. Or I will main deck “shadow imprisoning mirror” again. And neither of us will want that to happen.
The best thing about Drytron is just how flexible it is with what Rituals you can jam into it and still rock and roll. If you want to go the Herald route you can replace this Ashes with the little Heralds to get Effect/Trap negation even if your Ultimate gets sacked, and can run a second/third Majiun for more Fairy searcher/pitch material. Amorphage Ritual can delay your opponent a turn and shut off a bunch of annoying Fusion/XYZ/Synchro effects, the Red Eyes ritual is a simple destruction you can trigger, the Shinobirds are mass removal and token generators, and Cyber Angel Vrash is a Extra Deck nuke and double attacker. Heck, that new Ritual monster Dragma got is a Extra Deck rip for your opponent of your choice and a Extra Foolish for yourself, and its negative effect is non-existent when the Drytons can remove it from the field to summon themselves. Point is, Drytons are a heck of archtype for Rituals, and even though they may not be the next Nekroz for some I am quite eager to see what people can get up to with this cosmic machines and big sis Betnen!
The fact that these monsters don't banish themselves after summoning themselves from the GY is just absurdly powerful imo. It allows you to cycle them every turn as long as you draw a Ritual or Drytron.
"It's not nearly as good going second as it is going first... a lack of an innate catchup mechanic puts it at a disadvantage if it loses the die roll" Have you read Natasha? (It isn't once per turn).
This is just a silly complaint that people always make about these kinds of decks. The lists are made to be as competitive as possible, and if the drytron bosses hurt the consistency of the deck more than they help the deck win, it doesn’t make sense to run it just because “it’s the monster you’re supposed to summon “
@@iBenjamin1000 Like a 1-of of Meteonis is gonna destroy everything. But seriously, as it stands, Drytron is just used as an engine and I don't like it. The bosses ain't even bad. It's like having a beautiful girl in front of you, but all that seems to matter is tits.
@@DerVasto To an extent, I agree with ya mate. Both of the Dryton Bosses are quite potent is wielded correctly, and the first one serve as decent disruption during your opponent's turn. The problem with them, however, is that using their effects drains you of resources for following turns and that it takes at least 2 mats. to summon them, which gimps other plays unless you open pretty good. They also have pretty poor protection and other Rituals have destruction/nuke effects that are not nearly as costly, so overall while they are not unplayable or bad they are not the best choice if you are trying to win or make comeback victories. Still, nothing stopping you or anyone else from playing them despite that fact. Deck has plenty of room for tech choices, and could even to afford to run more than 40 cards due to how easy it is to search everything out in the deck. Up to the individual in the end, really!
I would love another Jillian (and Sadie) episode. She so earnestly reads your script despite clearly not understanding most of what she's saying, and it's just really refreshing. Appease your comments section and have her read a Gemini TMT.
Spirit isnt a summoning method, its just Normal Summons that self-bounce. Shinobird is the exception because rituals, which are indeed a bad summoning mechanic.

Honestly, you played the deck fairly well. Just one tip maybe for further improvement: You could play 1 megalith och, 1 more phul + 1 soul of purity and light instead Chaos Valkyria and the megalith combo could be Summon Phul, use off to add Benten from gy (Phul's LV=6), eff Phul ss ophiel from deck using benten, eff benten, search soul of purity and light OR Manju if you play Magician of Black Chaos MAX, which leads to -> eff ophiel, search och, eff ophiel summon och, ns Manju, search MAX, and you are set to summon MAX on your opponent's turn. The other combo, with soul of purity and light leads to the summon of Beatrice with phul and soul (both lv 6 now), to damp any Drytron and go on from there. Just some options, the deck has limitless, as you said Benten is ban worthy and the deck, if played correctly, can play through at least 2-3 interruptions. Only problem for this deck is Calamities, unfortunately.
I rehearse. A 9000 beater in 2009. Not today. And if you think it wasnt impressive, megamorph and ADA were hoth hit because of Demise OTK, so people were fairly impressed. This will comeback to the meta, whenever the Battle Phase becomes important in 2309.
This archetype is so strong that it somehow managed to not only indirectly resurrect 3 separate ritual archetypes, all of which would be considered terrible otherwise; but it also propelled them to tier 1 meta.
Well, MBT didn´t run the actual boss monsters, so this doesn´t really show much of how strong or consistent Drytron is with its own win con. To your delight, THOSE are humongous, gigantic space robo-dragons with really strong effects. Kinda weird why he didn´t run them, as the ritual only needs the ATK of the tributes to add up to 4000.

Ok since when was rituals ever considered the worst mechanic. When were Gemini’s and flip summoning mechanics literally EVER good? Shaddol’s were great and Subterror is ok at best, but name a good gemini deck??
@@malexthegreat They take more than one mat to summon, though, and the better of the two big ones drains your little guys to fuel its pop effect, so follow up plays will be all the more difficult to pull off.

@@anonjohn9760 also you can easily search both get two drytons on field summon the best one with the other from hand then summon that from gy to have both on field turn 1
I think the fact that both tsuk and yata were so absurdly good for their times, being banned and limited respectively and the fact that they're playable, if barely, today (in the form of shinobirds) means that gemini are worse. The best gemini monster was effectively just a 1900 vanilla, while il blud and gigaplant were good in fewer decks and in far smaller of a time frame than even dark dust spirit.

Welcome to Game 3 and you know what that means-gets disconnected by judge. I hope you see this cuzz I was the dude who did that during the RDE side event when the guy was having internet troubles 👀👀
I don't see a reason for why Benten should end up on the banlist, when cards like Elpy, Calamities, Halqifibrax, etc. are all still legal. Ritual is the most vulnerable summoning mechanic in the game and there are so many powerful outs to just ritual summoning in general.

@@DerVasto Well, that sounds like a you-problem to me. It's called ten minute testing, because MBT tries to build the deck as competitive as possible to *test* how good it can be, not to look how pretty and in-theme focused the deck can be played.

Of course, it´s about how good the archetype might be, but isn´t the whole "testing" irrelevant when you only test a variant of the archetype with an alternative win-con, not the archetype itself? It doesn´t seem like a test for Drytron to me, only for splashability of Drytron. In this video I´ve seen nothing about how much the archetype can achieve by itself.
Since we're on the topic of Gemini. Did you know that type of summoning is so bad that there's not a single anime character who plays that summoning method.
Joseph was summoning the Drystron Ritual monsters just too much for you? I mean, you know how powerful those cards are right? They're literally one of the biggest and best reasons to play the deck you know?
@@gamersreactions9267 The first one can attack all SS monsters and as a Quick Effect sends face-up cards your opp controls to the GY. The 2nd one is just HFD and floats.

Also, by now I´ve seen enough TMTs to see how he plays, but that is kinda wrong I think. Of course, it´s about how good the archetype might be, but isn´t the whole "testing" irrelevant when you only test a variant of the archetype with an alternative win-con, not the archetype itself? It doesn´t seem like a test for Drytron to me, only for splashability of Drytron.
In this video I´ve seen nothing about how much the archetype can achieve by itself.
these intros r oscar worthy
Since we're on the topic of Gemini. Did you know that type of summoning is so bad that there's not a single anime character who plays that summoning method.
Didnt Flashback Soulburner use some of the Fire Warriors from the Gemini Structure Deck?
@@kotkafer2292 I know there's one Gemini monster, but I'm not sure if that's a Gemini deck.
@@OddEyesDuelist yeah wasnt a whole Deck but i think He used the Big red Gearfried
I wish there was a supercut of all the intros to this series 😭
I'm interested in that crusadia list
You should build a deck with dogmatika, z-arc and miracle synchro fusion
CAMERAMANNNNNN HE'S BACKKKKKK
Who else is hyped for the next episode of the Progression Playoffs?!?! 🙌🏾
Joseph was summoning the Drystron Ritual monsters just too much for you?
I mean, you know how powerful those cards are right?
They're literally one of the biggest and best reasons to play the deck you know?
I would rather see a chaos max, jokes aside i dont even know wtf they do, i just win way before i need them tbh
i thought herald was the biggest and best reason to play the deck
@@gamersreactions9267 The first one can attack all SS monsters and as a Quick Effect sends face-up cards your opp controls to the GY.
The 2nd one is just HFD and floats.
The Bosses are expensive and i guess they are decent but more than 1 will Just gonna make You brick
@@NoneofImportance9080 and vanitys Ruler prevents all Special Summoning. What do You prefer?
"2nd worst summoning mechanic"
Geminis: Are we a joke to you?
Everyone ever: Yes
two words: Amorphactor Pain
Earthbound immortal DANNY!!!
At this point I'm not gonna read "insert archetype here" should translate too I'll do it eventually
I dont have nova and the deck is still fun and competent of winning games.
Still sucks not having nova
Love that shirt! So heartwarming ❤️
silly MBT that's cyber angel benten in the thumbnail
This skit has me rollin, 10/10
Best intro in a min
You missed Demise otk.
Nice Joseph, marry christmas!
Rituals peaked with Hungry Burger. Don't @ me.
Now i jist have to figure out how to cross thos with nephthys
Anyone else notice the camera man's Timthetatman sweater 💀 he's a part of the flock
Do you think you'll ever promise to never read cards and keep your word?
Shadoll:....did they forget about me
Megalith also were Tier 2 for a week
Still Flip >>> Gemini
Despite this being on EdoPro for weeks and being Meta for the same amount of times, I have yet to play against someone actually good with those things. So i dont have to bother understanding whats going on beyond knowing that they have one untargetable 4k beatstick.
I dont think you need nova at three. Can do another card maybe like pot of avarice
He gave in, he read the cards!
We did it boys!!! We made him read Drytron!!!
1 year later still strong
i would say to play 1 copy of megalith phaleg he can boost the field a lot and help getting lethal damage
