Extra Zeus tips: Dont make Gilgamesh on the same turn you plan to make Zeus, because Gilgamesh locks you into DDD If you have 2 level 4 bodies, go into Caesar, Tell, Machinex, and then Zeus. Will get you a 4 material Zeus even after using Tell's effect
Yo Gustavo, wassup :D That's a fair way to go into Zeus too, but its match up dependent. You can actually go into Zeus with Gilga, since Gilga's D/D lock is only live, if his scaling effect resolves. So you can simply choose to not resolve his effect. And it's better to not resolve the scale effect too, since you clear both boards either way, if Zeus resolves. Then you can just overlay into Machinex, crash, and boom overlay into Zeus. A 4-mat Zeus is very good in certain matchups, but it's super resource heavy for us, since we will loose the conventional ways to OTK with Tell lines, or all the conventional lines to go into Big Caesar. Especially since Ty-Phon is out now. So if you see that the match is gonna be grindy and you have a follow up turn, a 2-mat Zeus with Gilga could be a better call.
I'm not really the commenting type, but I gotta say your dedication to this guide is top tier! I'm super new to Yugioh, not to mention D/D/D, and your videos are a tremendous help to learn both the game and the deck. Thanks a million and look forward to this series and your upcoming other videos!
Something about D/D/D that I love is that there is actual balance to the deck. There are costs, locks, and crucial hard "once per turns" that mean you have to be prudent about your plays. Edit: food for thought, I run LaPlace because he inflicts piercing damage.
Hey Joel! :D I 100% agree. I think it‘s such a pity that other archetypes don‘t lock as much. Because that‘s when these decks become generic boss spam and the deck identity gets lost completely :/ The thing that never gets boring with D/D/Ds are all these crucial OTPs and the high skill ceiling, really miss it from other decks If you like Laplace you will like my deckbuilding theory coming up soon lmao he is so goated
Another excellent video! I’m really surprised by the way you play the combos with the different hands you get, one thing is true, we D/D/D players should be allowed to run 20 cards in the extra deck. Not having High Alexander, Caesar Ragnarok and Kali Yuga really breaks my heart since they’re so good and sometimes needed. I know one could replace D'Arc, Baronne and Zeus but it’s hard to play without them… either way, great content, keep up with the good work! 👑
Thanks Walther! :D glad you‘ve enjoyed this video and 20 cards is straight up facts. Would increase our chances for having an out to anything by A LOT. Sometimes I found myself in the situation were piercing damage would come in handy too with beowulf (crooked cook is so cringe)
@@DifferentDimensionDreamer Absolutely! Sometimes I get stuck with Vice Typhoon when I've already summoned High Genghis, would be nice to have another name to summon and the piercing damage would be lit. By the way, have you seen the new Aerial Eater? It's level 6 so it can be material for High Caesar, however it can only be summoned with Contract with the Swamp King since both Slimes can only bring out D/D/D. It also gives you the opportunity to follow with Slime and then Small Genghis but since it's so limited I don't see any further play. 😔
@@walthermeza7197hey walther! sorry for the super late replay, my week has been really stressful. I see the vision with aerial eater! Really cool option to go into big caesar too! but loosing a swamp fusion for it is a big cost especially since we have to do it before going into gilga. Maybe Aerial is not meant as tech choice for a pure D/D/D deck but as an extender for a hybrid fiend pile deck with D/D/D splashed into it🤔🤔
I realy love playing Kali Yuga in my Extra Deck for all those backrow heavy Decks. I will remember what you said about Stun Andys and try to keep my cool and enjoy a nice round of Edison again :D
Kali Yuga is such a hidden gem, sadly way to overlooked in our own archetype :( basically an insta win against lab if it hits the field lmao And stun is such a chill match up if moon mirror shield is not involved
@@DifferentDimensionDreamer i’ve come close to mastering DDD and been using a long time. My favorite and only deck I use. I think only foolish new ddd players would actually Overlook Kali Yuga. It’s a powerful card.
Also since yubel came out i think you should splash in a small yubel package since it compliments d/d with 0/0 synergy and early negate access without having much of a package with 3 throne 1 yubel and 1 spirit with 1 negate fusion on ed
Hello again, playing DDD in this format no matter what is going to be difficult, I have managed to play through 5 interruptions and still combo however there are situations that are simply impossible
Hey Dante :D glad to see you again! Definitely! Playing through 5 interruptions and going full combo afterwards is very very impressive, but sometiems you just don‘t draw enough gas :/
@@DifferentDimensionDreamer it ain’t even about gas sometimes, some boards are literally impossible to break if they go first, if your opponent summons Protos and they put Dark what are you going to do?
Yo Alan! Good Point but in the case of Typhon, I‘m always worried that he gets sent to the GY on the opponents turn, making me loose the access to the fuse from the GY. With Thomas, it‘s kinda risky since he is our only recursion piece if they manage to beat over him
@@DifferentDimensionDreamer i do agree on this point but also disagree at the same time. it all depends on the context, the situation, duel. in my case i would not use them at the start to make my opponent waste some of its ressources but its also risky to let them gain some time . also typhon is a practical way to summon high genghis yet it isn't the only way and there's a lot of ways to access fusions and contracts so it's not a big deal imo to let it die during the opponents turn. but once again it all depends on the context situation and duel
@@HakAIan really true Alan! Super context and game state dependent as always with our deck. It‘s just a weird feeling to loose my typhon without reaping the benefits of it yk? sometimes it could really be the right play if nothing else is left
You could have negated your own summons and have both big ceaser and deus x machina on field to attack over 5k, couldn't you on 15:40 replay? I don't play pure d/d/d bu i use big ceaser as my psuedo big stick along with deus x machina for otks
Yo Ozi :D Yes that's the other way to do it. But the big caesar line to beat over anything is quite complicated to do. Since the atk boost can only work if the card that got negated is destroyed as well. So the only D/D cards which meet this condition are swirl, lamia and gryphon and all of them must be in hand. And you usually need gryphon to gain access to big caesar, so this special summon could not be negated. This only leaves us with lamia and swirl and I did not have either in hand and since his end dragon had 5000 atk, I would have needed to negate both, lamia and swirl. This set up would take at least 2 turns, if I don't hard draw them. And since 2 turns is enough so that I can set up my damage boost with gryphon as scale, I went with that instead. Especially since big caesar would not be of great help, when end dragon is on the field already and considering cyber dragon players are notorious for contact fusing the board away.

@@ethanjones926 no problem :)! the standard decklist is very consistent and rarely bricks, but the handtrap density is quite low on this one, so you might up the numbers of handtraps or switch them out for boardbreakers. Around 12 non engine cards is good
