I’ve been playing ONLY DM since 2016 so I’m glad to see someone covering the deck and you did a great job Despite having “multiple searches” the deck lacks….searches lol The back row can definitely feel cluttered Even if you full combo your end board is basically nothing And your entire game plan is basically just to summon Dragoon and hope it’s one negate is magically enough …well that or playing a stun variant (which in my opinion is the best way to play DM by far. The deck is so bad I don’t care if other variants are able to consistently poop out 2 dragoons in one turn, that just isn’t enough. Especially when 1 flood gate has a lot more stopping power)
Thanks for commenting about your perspective on the deck! I've always heard that the deck was bad in some way, shape, or form, but never got a solid concrete explanation of it besides vanilla = bad, or it just sucks in general. Glad you found my points valid to the discussion. Regarding the searchers part though, it was something I never really heard people talk about alot, and only found out about it from the video I shared near the end. During playtests I would just play with what I had and just hoped for the best. Maybe I've been too conditioned by bad ritual decks to just vomit out my hand and pray.
@@ASalomon69 DM players also don’t use a lot of cards that are considered good in the deck. Circle, Eternal Soul, Navigation, etc We literally only play Souls, Rod, the blue man, shitty dragons eyes but now as a monster, Servant, and of course dm and dms questionably aged girlfriend The only combo worth going for is Souls summon DM Blue man group to search the worst fusion effect in all of history dragon And then use the dragon and your dm to summon Dragoon Anything else on your deck usually just revolves around making this as consistent as possible Its also a little funny that Dragoon isn’t a hard once per turn so having a board of 2 dragoons is actually full combo Altho good luck having two cards in hand for that That’s also another thing you touch up on in your video and that’s how despite dragoon being a pretty good card. A lot of the time, on your path to summon it you end up with zero cards in hand making the entire point of summoning dragoon pointless
techincally, the rules in the very first incarnation of Yugioh in the OCG, there were no tribute rules, which means you could at the earliest point of yougainah; Summon Dark Magician and slap your opponent silly with it.
When it comes to the big 3 original monsters blue-eyes is the favorite child dark magician is the 2nd and konami forgot they have a 3rd kid with red-eyes
i feel like they put too many restrictions on post magicians souls cards bc they felt dumb when all the spyral gamers were tier 0 with it for a little while
I feel that isnt the case yet, since only 1 major wave of support came out after it (the rest are kinda sprinkled here and there), so we dont really have much to go off for now. For timaeus, it is restricted more from archaic design than pulling the brakes on DM support since it is technically usable in decks that have a mix of dragons and spellcasters like in branded, but held back by hinging on setting up spells in the gy because DM cant make up their mind on wanting spell/traps in gy or not. Illusion of chaos was designed to fill the monster searcher spot which was much needed. The rest are nostalgia bait references that for some reason still have battle phase centric effects (magikuriboh & knight of dragon magic) or haha-hehe-blow-up-effect-too-difficult-to-pull-off (master of chaos) Honestly would need to see more incoming support to see if this is true, but you never know if [Toy box + white woods] could one day make DM relevant again cos it needs to send a billion spells too.
At this point I'd assume DM is purposefully designed to be perpetually a low casual tier deck. Bait nostalgic players back into the modern game with continuous new DM support, force them to play something else (and therefore buy a new deck) to actually win games in a competitive setting
Thank god we dont live in a timeline where something like DM is meta relevant lol. Duel Links made me despise DM and Blue Eyes so now I just laugh whenever the pilots of those decks complain about them being mad. Like I realistically should feel bad, but I am too petty and biased against those 2 decks to care lol
I swear the Battle Chronicle skill was a giant mistake for the game Only behind Eternal Bond that literally makes players play 3x Yubel, 3x Neos and a million staples to boot
7:19 keep fighting the good fight brother, runick haters together strong

The only combo worth going for is
Souls summon DM
Blue man group to search the worst fusion effect in all of history dragon
And then use the dragon and your dm to summon Dragoon
Anything else on your deck usually just revolves around making this as consistent as possible
Its also a little funny that Dragoon isn’t a hard once per turn so having a board of 2 dragoons is actually full combo Altho good luck having two cards in hand for that
That’s also another thing you touch up on in your video and that’s how despite dragoon being a pretty good card. A lot of the time, on your path to summon it you end up with zero cards in hand making the entire point of summoning dragoon pointless
That sounds like ass for the TCG side. No wonder Dragoon aint banned at your side.

No way, Konami was right all this time
Yes, but only in the first rulings of the game, so you can’t once they implemented Tribute summoning, but then again, Eternal Soul exists.

Meanwhile Summoned Skull is found dead in a ditch 😔
I would love to see more videos like this, great video
Two days ago, I found this video and right after, I saw a Kasthira-Dark Magician Deck that was actually pretty good, LOL.
I will not tolerate any Little D slander 😭

No.

Good point actually, wouldn't be surprised if that is what Konami is doing for blue eyes as well
