Oh my god. Yes, I love Minerva. I would die for Minerva, Lightsworn Athena. This support card is going to change my life and it's going to be the best card ever.
It is not a LS Circular, unless you are playing a massive amount of LS. And that's what's great about this support : it breath life into pure LS, but prevent it from being used as a small engine in chaos pile. If you want to use these new cards, you have to commit a good portion of your deck to LS. Unironically peak casual design !
To be fair Ancient Gear mains are realistic and know their deck is shit, while Lightsworn stans inhale insane amounts of copium since they need to have faith in their mills, same as Tear mains lol
Here’s what you do: if you have any 1 name in grave, Special baby dragon. Baby sends and summons Felis. Synch for Minerva, Minerva sends Wulf and Weiss, Dragon searches Punishment. Wulf summons itself and Weiss summons Felis. Either make another Synchro 8, Rank 4(in which case you need to detach 1), or Link 2 using Felis and Wulf. Use Minerva to banish 4 names and mill 4. Summon Punishment Dragon. If you want, use Punishment to recycle any non-Lightsworns you milled. So that’s Minerva, 1 of the 2 names, and a /Synchro 8/Rank 4/Link 2 on field without a normal summon. You can make a rank 8 and detach Punishment for its effect, then find a way to get JD on the field and summon Enlightenment that way.
Lightsworn judgment searches it, so you’d have to either get lucky with mills or search it via using Baby. Viable route seems like a 2 card combo: Charge of the Light Brigade for Raiden, normal raiden, trigger raiden, hopefully you’ve got a Lightsworn in grave now, then summon Baby send Lightsworn judgment, search JD, synch into Athena, baby search punishment dragon and from here I think you can repeat what you said you just need a method to discard it.
@@Exisist5151 Finding JD isn't really a problem if you're running Starliege Seyfert, since you can banish it from grave to fetch JD(or Punishment, if you want) back from grave. Starliege also does double-duty as a searcher for Lightsworn Dragon, Collapserpent/Wyverburster, or even JD/PD(if you have another level 4 dragon on hand) if you Normal Summon it. Chaos Space can also search either dragon.
I can see during the Weiss summom Felis you can maybe make other Minerva or Chaos Ruler if he was, you know, legal. Alternatively I've been questioning if Bystials may help in some way and with them you can use one of the L4 Lightsworns with a Bystial to make Chaos Angel depending on how the end board may actually look.
It’s so weird watching him in real time: read the cards, think it’s bad, but then he stops and thinks for a second and says “wait, does this actually work?”
Dragon of lightsworn 1 card combo (requires ANY name in the gy): 1. Summon Dragon, send Felis, summon Felis 2. Synchro for Minerva, send Second Felis and Weiss to summon 2 Felis, and search JD with Dragon 3. Synchro Minerva with a Felis to summon Centurion Legatia for a free draw 4. With 4 names in GY (Dragon, Felis, Weiss, Minerva), summon JD and synchro for Crimson Dragon 5. Use Crimson Dragon and either get a Blazar, or King Calamity during your opponent’s draw phase Lightsworns confirmed new Centur-Ion support (didn’t use normal summon)
Ancient gear GOD here, I will use this opportunity to elaborate further. "These cards are mid" They make the deck way better to play and make the existing archetype actually work with itself, it's something you can only understand if you played this deck a lot. I don't have to play dark hole just to clear my board to use all of my good effects anymore, wyvern is now a 1 card chaos giant, YOU CAN SPECIAL SUMMON ANCIENT GEAR GOLEM WHICH MAKES ANCIENT GEAR FUSION INTO FUSION FROM DECK, WHICH WAS PREVIOUSLY ONLY POSSIBLE WITH EXACTLY CATAPULT, NOW YOU CAN JUST SUMMON HIM OFF OF GEARTOWN, WHICH MEANS FROM THE LINK 2 THAT IS NOW INSANELY EASY TO MAKE. if you want support to make ancient gear meta or even rogue then you are setting your expectations way too high, we just want to make big attack robot man consistently and these cards provide that.
In Master Duel I ran an Ancient Gear deck running off of an Infinitrack Anchor Drill to consistently get into Ballista and also ran Super Express Bullet Train for the extra special summon and chance to go into Number 81: Superdreadnaught Rail Cannon Super Dora, as well as Power Bond for a big 9000 attack beatstick, but this new support may actually make the deck a common threat now, and can hold up to MAYBE MORE THAN ONE ASH BLOSSOM NOW
@@thelastcrow It was already pretty decent at being one, it just never had the consistent plays and you had to rely on generic earth machine cards... yeah it wasn't that great, especially when a single ash blossom could ruin your entire turn. Now it has at least more than 2 openers and it can get to its archetypal fusion spell WITHOUT being forced to run a brick in deck and a lot of underwhelming cards. It didn't make the deck competitively viable for pure ancient gears, *maybe* if you mashed loads of earth machines together you could get something since the new support doesnt lock you into ancient gears, but its sure as hell a lot more consistent at doing what it should be doing; activating effects and getting a 4500 beatstick on the field.
Fellow Crayon-Eating Ancient Gear user speaking. Been stress testing these new cards on YGOPRO. Whilst the deck is nowhere near unbeatable the way other meta designs are - doesn't help I'm to much of a archetype puritan to mix the deck with non-Ancient Gear cards unless they're generic as hell - these cards do a LOT of good stuff for the archetype.
"Could not have made these more mid if you tried" and "Exactly what the deck's been looking for since 2017" are unfortunately claims that can coexist when talking about ancient gear.
baby JD is absolutely insane, it searches if it goes to GY no matter where from. mill / discard with lumina/ detatch from minerva etc. and almost combos by itself to have 4 names (1 required in GY to SS it, wulf or weiss, synchro/xyz minerva)
I really was not expecting to wake up yesterday to see new Lightsworn Support. I'm not familiarized with other cards but I do at least know this Archetype and already see how you can make either Minerva's and/or Michael/Curios just at basic. Other stuff may depend on mills and whatnot or if maybe Bystials do something. (Again limited knowledge).
They may do Bystials for easy level 10 sycnros with the level 4 tuners. 6s / 4. Plus their continues spell would be enjoyed for builds that use twilightsworn. Also the evil part with Lumina on that side is that she does not care about level when specialing a banished lightsworn.
@@Jimpipecigarbear Yeah, I also only thought of them because Magnamut could Search JD or PD or any other potential Dragon to play. Same goes with making Dis-Pater potentially.
I am glad some new and better support has come for Ancient gear decks. I have always been a fan of the original one. But like this video said the consistency of the deck was always bad and slow. These new cards will definitely increase its consistency and bring some respect to it. Just like how Red eyes decks got Darkness metal dragon, red eyes fusion and red eyes dark dragoon.
15:00 is this a meme he does where he says feather storm a lot? Aegis is multi target negation with many applications, but it isn't a blanket non-target negation of every monster effect you can do. and the Antique gear trap is mass protection from monster effects, that doesn't hamper the opponent building boards. as to the two archetypes, Im vaguely excited for antique gears getting more consistency. they already had some of the biggest attack stats in the game, but getting more protection and consistency within archetype to make big stomp robot punch the crap out of things is pretty good. the decks identity at this point is march up, beatdown, go home, and frankly more that supports it sounds great to me. the new Lightroad cards fill me with vague hope since i actually do like the playstyle that decks been going for, and the new consistency options this provides along with an in archetype table flip and negation option might provide some more bite.. but I have no idea how it'll actually get used, and if it's good how long it'll be around for.
It's funny that even Farfa- a great Yugioh Commentator in our tournaments- and all our Ancient gear fans still all misinterpret effect of AG Commander as "Mathmech Circular" but it actually only works on the field after summon not from hand like Circular 😅 Modern Yugioh Ruling can be super complicated sometimes, that it's so wild and cool
It's funny to me that Punishment dragon has been bought out because if you actually think about it, it's an Ultra from a 6 year old box now. Feel old yet?
the AG lineup is honestly fantastic for what AGs already do, but more consistent and better. they aren't meta nor maybe even rogue, but they're fun and honor their previous strengths and that's all an old archetype can ask for
I like the Lightsworn cards. Dragon=instant XYZ Minerva. Weiss=fixes hand and searched with Map. New Minerva=makes Enlightenment, Punishment, and Twilightsworns playable. Trap=better skill trap for deck
As a huge ancient gear fan, this is the best day of my life. Now I will probably play nothing but ancient gears until I die. I conclusion: Ancient gear best deck
@snowqueen549 and the fact that you can do pretty much chaos ruler without using your normal summon is really absurd, specially if you have a reinoheart in your hand to mill even more. And that's not even counting the mill power of the lightsworns themselves
I maybe have been 7 days late but the fact that konami did not release another minerva circular with feet alt art on top of all this really shows that they are not willing to try.
Upnext Super Sayian Dante: Untargetable, destroy up to one of each named burning abyss monster from deck. Gain 1k for each destroyed BA monster. Pop 1 card on oppents feild up to number of destroyed BA monster. Some reddit guy: Pretty mid, Dante mill 3 is good enough.
Combining the new AG support with some old and the Superheavy Samurai engine makes the deck pretty decent. Access to Baronne or Gigant X first is pretty good. Especially with Fortress making 90% everything unreactable and protected lol
God damn, who hurt the ancient gear players man? This support is everything the deck was missing! Half of the cards read like reddit customs and people still are disappointed?
Farfa smoking crack thinking the fusion is hard to summon. Lightsworn mills like 15 cards turn 1, so you just use baby dragon to add whichever wasnt milled. If you need some banished to summon punishment, then the synchro does that for you
I was really excited when I saw Ancient Gear was getting new support, but I'm pretty sure they're still strictly worse than the machina engine. Very unfortunate. Atleast they're all Earths, so you can't accidentally attribute lock yourself out of your combo a la Vernusylph.
I mean, they’re alright. Ancient gear especially is just ok. Neither are absurd. Ancient gear actually should’ve gotten an Omni to have something to do turn 1. Like I know you’re laughing at saying that but a negate of some form should honestly be something every deck gets even if it’s like rulukalos negate
Honestly both have amazing potental. I think some sort of shaddol tear lighsworn will go hard. And anceint gears are alit better still not the best at breaking board sit does have a one cards choas giant tho
Lightsworn just fundamentally doesnt work in 2023. We cry for having to play 1 garnet in a good deck and here is lightsworn bringing like multiple wulfs, JD,PD, felis, new trap and wants you to draw none of them.
True, if it’s gonna be playable I think you have to not run both dragons (just one to search), the new trap, and design combos such that you only need wulf or felis (not both)
Weiss + wulf combo: weiss place wulf on top of deck, mill 2 & summon, summon wulf, make the new synchro minerva (or just chaos ruler on master duel), send wulf (or felis for synchro plays) and weiss from deck to GY, wulf revive, weiss revive other wulf, make bujintei kagutsuchi, mill 5, then minerva can banish the 2 weiss to mill 2 more, for a total of 8 mills not including the wulf "mill", without using the normal summon. You can make xyz minerva instead of bujintei kagutsuchi, you mill 3 instead of 5 but can draw cards and since the mill 3 is a detach you mill 1 more later. But I think you can realistically try to make both bujintei kagutsuchi and xyz minerva
Yeah teamsamuraits1x and see reax both have these decks as A tier for a reason. Now that they’ve gotten support all these tearlament, ace brigade and other meta deck users are punching air because are 10+ year old archetype is now powerful enough to compete with S tier decks. Just because it doesn’t summon 5 micro Jesuses like Barrone de fleur with no once per turn quick effect limits, doesn’t mean ancient gear can’t compete with it. With the trap card duel, AG ultimate golem is now unaffected by monster effects and has 4400atk. Please by my guest and try to use monster effects on a monster unaffected by monster effects.
That so called "ancient gear GOD" really doesn't understand ancient gears. I've used ancient gears for years, and the trap is now the best fusion card for ancient gears, and pairs perfectly with ancient gear fusion. Commander is a key card that every ancient gear deck will need in order to full combo. After playing around with the new stuff, I can firmly say that ancient gears will be tier 2 at worst. It beats swordsoul outright, and voiceless voice has been an easy clap. Fire King has been relatively even, but I'm just bad at yugioh. The deck loses to D-shifter and Droll & and lock, which isn't great. I don't believe I've lost to snake-eye, but I haven't won to snake-eye+fire king. I've lost to the new yubel stuff because I lack information on how the new yubel stuff works. Ancient gears with a good hand can play through at least 5 interuptions, and they're immune to niberu due to the continuous trap. I can make galaxy/photon boss monsters more consistently with ancient gears than I've been able to with a galaxy/photon deck, which I find kinda funny. This is information gathered through testing against people online. P.S. watch out for yubel, the new stuff can lock you into a self-tk without you realizing.
You get judgement dragon in your hand with bystial..people have been using lightsworn/bystial in the duelist cup. Did you get passed lvl16???? Dude talks like a know it all but knows nada 😂😂😂
just wait until lightsworn players realize that minerva wont trigger after they summend her as how the frick are you suposed to get a lightworn level 4 tuner and a lightsworn level 4 non tuner on the field with normal summoning passing and thennormal summon again. even back in the day people mostly snychro summoned with uni zombi and then occasionally raiden. i guess you can mill exactly wolf felice with charge
Are you on the spectrum? Are you slow ? Literally THE FIRST CARD he read LITERALLY special summon itself (a level 4) and then sends 1 Lightsworn from deck (flies level 4 tuner ) and then you can summon synchro minerva …. With ONE CARD combo without even using a normal summon …
as an ancient gear fanboy, I also think the deck got exactly what it needed to fix it issues. Now it's on equal footing with copium anime decks
Oh my god. Yes, I love Minerva. I would die for Minerva, Lightsworn Athena. This support card is going to change my life and it's going to be the best card ever.
Please touch grass
@@rushxanthemtcg5607don't worry, we will
Please don't touch grass

@@KitsuneRogue At least it's viable now. But there certainly are new hybrids that are going to appear with that level of support.
Yeah I’m glad you guys didn’t get the Sky striker treatment where Azalea was literally better in any light or dark deck then Sky Striker
Fun fact: Ancient Gear Commander s literally Crowler as an ancient gear monster. You have his duel vest and his coat.
If none of them lock you into ancient gears, earth machine pile might be the play
Tanker is Soldier with Ancient Gear Tank equipped. Tank gives 600 attack so it makes sense that Tanker gives 600 attack.

The way these previously useless Lightsworns/Twilightsworns are getting bought out Konami should make an updated structure and milk it.
Not just a 8 synchro, new Minerva also can set up Bujintei Kagetsuchi for another mill5, which then alongside Minerva Exalted can make F0.

Thank you Tiaraments strongest!

Very hard to make tho
@@kamenlobsternot that much in ls, which is the idea

I mean cheating out punishment dragon from englightenment dragon can put all the banished cards back
For the lightsworns, it seems like you need to open one of the dragons or Dragon shrine to set up the combo.
The 600 atk boost off of tanker puts Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem at 5000 atk exactly :)
I like the Lightsworn cards. Dragon=instant XYZ Minerva. Weiss=fixes hand and searched with Map.
New Minerva=makes Enlightenment, Punishment, and Twilightsworns playable.
Trap=better skill trap for deck
Wow nothing about the DMK retrain???
When the Sworn is light
Ah yes, another addition to my ancient gear machina deck.
As a huge ancient gear fan, this is the best day of my life. Now I will probably play nothing but ancient gears until I die.
I conclusion: Ancient gear best deck
Using tear as a mill 11/8 engine that can end on Rullkallos and can play on the opponent's turn is gonna be really fun on MD
don't forget that in Master Duel , Chaos Ruler still a thing lol. I hope it don't get ban before this release.
@snowqueen549 and the fact that you can do pretty much chaos ruler without using your normal summon is really absurd, specially if you have a reinoheart in your hand to mill even more.
And that's not even counting the mill power of the lightsworns themselves
I dream of the day we get VWX Wing Tiger Catapult Cannon and a way to summon v-z with it
Wish minerva didnt need to be summoned with lightsworns to dump lightsworn monsters
I maybe have been 7 days late but the fact that konami did not release another minerva circular with feet alt art on top of all this really shows that they are not willing to try.

can't wait for tearlightsworn tbh.
How about Branded Lightsworn... seems easy enough to get chaos angel, plus branded regain etc
Does someone know if lightsworn will come in a structure deck or these cards come in an upcoming booster pack (for the ocg for now?)
Its broken in ocg i think because we still have curious that send jd or pd
Combining the new AG support with some old and the Superheavy Samurai engine makes the deck pretty decent.
Access to Baronne or Gigant X first is pretty good. Especially with Fortress making 90% everything unreactable and protected lol
God damn, who hurt the ancient gear players man? This support is everything the deck was missing! Half of the cards read like reddit customs and people still are disappointed?
Farfa smoking crack thinking the fusion is hard to summon. Lightsworn mills like 15 cards turn 1, so you just use baby dragon to add whichever wasnt milled. If you need some banished to summon punishment, then the synchro does that for you
Lightsworn support is actually cracked.
I was really excited when I saw Ancient Gear was getting new support, but I'm pretty sure they're still strictly worse than the machina engine. Very unfortunate. Atleast they're all Earths, so you can't accidentally attribute lock yourself out of your combo a la Vernusylph.

weiss place wulf on top of deck, mill 2 & summon, summon wulf, make the new synchro minerva (or just chaos ruler on master duel), send wulf (or felis for synchro plays) and weiss from deck to GY, wulf revive, weiss revive other wulf, make bujintei kagutsuchi, mill 5, then minerva can banish the 2 weiss to mill 2 more, for a total of 8 mills not including the wulf "mill", without using the normal summon.
You can make xyz minerva instead of bujintei kagutsuchi, you mill 3 instead of 5 but can draw cards and since the mill 3 is a detach you mill 1 more later. But I think you can realistically try to make both bujintei kagutsuchi and xyz minerva
Didn't react to the new blue eyes sadge
its blue eyes lmao
Dragon mafia master? I'm sure he will, trust
normal summon dragon of l, ss striker dragon, add jd and field spell. Intoooooo, rokket...
Yeah teamsamuraits1x and see reax both have these decks as A tier for a reason. Now that they’ve gotten support all these tearlament, ace brigade and other meta deck users are punching air because are 10+ year old archetype is now powerful enough to compete with S tier decks. Just because it doesn’t summon 5 micro Jesuses like Barrone de fleur with no once per turn quick effect limits, doesn’t mean ancient gear can’t compete with it. With the trap card duel, AG ultimate golem is now unaffected by monster effects and has 4400atk. Please by my guest and try to use monster effects on a monster unaffected by monster effects.
gonna play pure lightsworns 😊
Imagine using kelbek and agido on TCG in this deck lol
Konaim is pumping out some of the most busted legacy support in the 2020s
That ancient gear tanker motorbike swagging robot doesn't look that ancient to me, just saying
That so called "ancient gear GOD" really doesn't understand ancient gears. I've used ancient gears for years, and the trap is now the best fusion card for ancient gears, and pairs perfectly with ancient gear fusion. Commander is a key card that every ancient gear deck will need in order to full combo. After playing around with the new stuff, I can firmly say that ancient gears will be tier 2 at worst. It beats swordsoul outright, and voiceless voice has been an easy clap. Fire King has been relatively even, but I'm just bad at yugioh. The deck loses to D-shifter and Droll & and lock, which isn't great. I don't believe I've lost to snake-eye, but I haven't won to snake-eye+fire king. I've lost to the new yubel stuff because I lack information on how the new yubel stuff works. Ancient gears with a good hand can play through at least 5 interuptions, and they're immune to niberu due to the continuous trap. I can make galaxy/photon boss monsters more consistently with ancient gears than I've been able to with a galaxy/photon deck, which I find kinda funny. This is information gathered through testing against people online.
P.S. watch out for yubel, the new stuff can lock you into a self-tk without you realizing.
Tldr Konami needs to ban cards for their new cards to be good.
doesnt minerva stop her own effect,? you cannot banish lightsworns
i mean we talk MD here... why not just summon chaos ruler instead
If you want to read the comments you need to wait a day or two so the comments can accumulate or else you just see a comment or two
Leave it to farfa to not actually read all of commander's effect completely missing the point of the trap
You get judgement dragon in your hand with bystial..people have been using lightsworn/bystial in the duelist cup. Did you get passed lvl16???? Dude talks like a know it all but knows nada 😂😂😂
Ehm, "Fusion Tag"? Just summon dragon, mill punishment, tag it as "Judgment Dragon", go into fusion. 2 Card combo :/
Was thinking of Elemental hero prisma. Copy Judgement. Mill punishment then banish both.
Why not just using mud king for punishment
Yah the deck is going second trubo but eh i rather keep that way
Lightsworn chiquito
just wait until lightsworn players realize that minerva wont trigger after they summend her as how the frick are you suposed to get a lightworn level 4 tuner and a lightsworn level 4 non tuner on the field with normal summoning passing and thennormal summon again. even back in the day people mostly snychro summoned with uni zombi and then occasionally raiden. i guess you can mill exactly wolf felice with charge
I mean weiss and the baby jd help with this alot
did you read any of the other new cards? Like Weiss and baby JD would help a ton with setting that up
Are you on the spectrum? Are you slow ? Literally THE FIRST CARD he read LITERALLY special summon itself (a level 4) and then sends 1 Lightsworn from deck (flies level 4 tuner ) and then you can summon synchro minerva …. With ONE CARD combo without even using a normal summon …
Hey now, I do think OP was being a bit ignorant here but we don't have to bring ableism in here, alright?@@emmarosie7176
Numeron is still better
when the gear is ancient
