to be fair there were some crucial improvements made by other people to actually push it to that point, but no doubt he popularized amaryllis and is the reason why it's seeing play now
This is definitely one of the coolest ideas I have seen for the deck in quiet some time. It definitely solves a lot of the problems that tytannial faces. Will definitely be trying out this card!
@@hermitxIII nah he for sure means 6. generally i think having a ratio of 6 to 2 (6 being the standalone cards like ryko / lyla / charge, and 2 being the reliant cards like discharge) is decent enough as a minimum to shoot for. that being said, i'm kinda on the same side as karpath here - the deck already has a good amount of brick potential, and adding another engine where you need multiple pieces to fit together is probably not the way to go. in a deck like ama, idt you need to raise the performance ceiling too much, you just wanna make it consistent
i always get distracted by your hand shuffling, and now you even started shuffling in real life lol - how many location changes happened in this video? :D but yea, i like those shield warriors - it's the kind of stuff you see low ranked opponents run in ls or something, and you always think it's a card worth trying - and then you never do. amaryllis definitely feels like one of the better fits to give the card a shot. sadly no protection from ddwl :c
At the time of the banlist, I'm sure that in 2010 the OCG and TCG both didn't experiment with Shield Warrior as an option. Besides, the TCG Edison format only lasted for 2 weeks lol.
@@LionKingGod both glads and bw seem super duper tough. tbf glads can have a bit of a hard time with an established tytannial depending on the build, but having the tokens and ama to run into + a lot of glads now running 2 retiari is tough
Its crazy to think this man really the creator of a tier 1 deck in 2024 for a retro format. Deserves his credit

Pretty sure he designed it in like 2022
Interested to see if this card takes off in popularity

5:55 Karpath turned into dark Karpath
Dmitri build a good deck challenge: impossible
Rule of thumb, if you play 6 or more lightsworns + charge in your deck, you should be using recharge.
Why (honestly interested)?
I assume you mean 6+ names, or 18 lightsworn monsters. I don't see it If I'm playing 6 lightsworn total.

13:05 I believe the monster would be destroyed, if it had to change control with no free zone available.
But i cant find any rulings to back that up.
Possessed Dark Soul ruling, you're welcome.
I've seen something similar happen in master duel
fertilizer!!!!!
Great content dude, would like to ask how come dark illusion is not used more in dark decks?

if shield warrior is a worse necro gardna, why is it at 3 and gardna at 1?
At the time of the banlist, I'm sure that in 2010 the OCG and TCG both didn't experiment with Shield Warrior as an option. Besides, the TCG Edison format only lasted for 2 weeks lol.
Cause Gardna is limited
I don't get this question. "Why is the good card limited but bad card is at 3?"
I'm not sure you even know what you are asking.
how is amariliys into glads?
I think BW and glads beat this every day but it does have good matchups for sure
so does krystia sworn with krystia and the walking nuke jd
13:30 why did your Lyla die the same BP you activated Shield Warrior?
It only gives them the spirit reaper effect for that ONE battle. Not the whole phase
I see... "by this battle".
Can you help me understand the Bestiary+Gyzarus in side deck? Have not played in a while and this deck might be the one to get back into it.
Mark of the rose and Brain control. That's it.
@@vaalaso I've been playing glads lately and Amarylis is like free. Retiari makes that deck irrelevant.
@@vaalaso Thanks. Makes sense now. Does this deck struggle this hard vs Glads?
