      @r4nd0mguy99 5 років тому

      If your plan is to level up characters, I‘d rather not use Montage Dragon for that. It‘s too slow, since you‘ll use level 10 duelists for saving keys. You‘ll be better off with a bunch of monsters which can be special summoned easily.
      for example: Red-Eyes, Blue-Eyes or basically any high-level normal monster, so that you can use ancient rules
      I prefer Red-Eyes since it has a lot of draw and discard options.

    • @marceloaugusto633
      @marceloaugusto633 5 років тому

      Montage Dragon is good because you're getting 7-8 chests against a lvl 40 duelist (2x Rewards), meaning that you'll very likely gain extra gems, SRs and URs not only Exp. Yes that's for old school players that have a ton of keys, but I think it's still the most optimal way to lvl up your characters due to the extra gems you gain.

    Montage Dragon was a great addition for my Deck because it happened quite often that I got a bad Hand with either no Malefic World (or Terraforming...) or a bunch of the Monsters required to use their Malfic Counterparts.
    So I used Montage Dragon and got a huge Beatstick with mostly over 9600 ATK. (My Opponents Reactions were priceless!)

    Yeah, I can see why it would be pretty flawed.

As a side note, maybe do Jar of Avarice for a "Why Nobody Plays..." episode?

    I've used Montage (obviously not competitively), in the digital YGO games, and I just want to point out that having multiple copies of Montage is great, solely because Montage has so 8 stars, so you can use other copies of Montage as your sent monsters to boost the ATK of the one you're trying to summon.
    If you have three blue-eyes and any other monster, you've got a hand full of garnets, but if you have multiple Montages, one Montage can use the others. (I am of course aware that Blue-eyes can be summoned from the grave while those Montages can't.)

      Can only be destroyed by light monsters, so that gives it better protection than Montage Dragon. It's not that hard to summon in a Dragon deck if you have the extra deck space for it. Five dragons isn't that difficult for a Dragon deck, BUT that also depends on what Dragon strategy you're running. Then again, imagine 3 5-Headed Dragons attacking directly when you don't have a mirror force down.... it can be scary sometimes, admittedly. Sometimes you need a big beater and well not much is getting over 5k. All in all, it's not that bad. It could be better, but at least it's better than the Egyptian Gods in terms of viability. Let alone Montage Dragon unless you discard the max level monsters you can for like 10800 atk.
      TL;DR: it's not that bad of a card, has better protection than most boss monsters similar to it in terms of atk, and it's relatively easy to summon and if your opponent doesn't have a light monster that can beat over it, they have to hope for an effect that gets it off the field. They won't always draw an out so they're basically screwed if they can't get rid of it

      Because Nordics are required for the Gods, and the archetype is really slow not to mention they each need one of three variants, making them not work together and most likely require three monsters to do it. The Nordic Gods themself unlike in the Anime have to banish a Nordic meaning it will run out of fodder, it also can easily be banished or bounced or anything. Loki only gets rid of a single spell/trap on the feild, Thor only negates one monster effect. Odin is the only one worth anything and even then it quite simply isn't worth the effort and the archetype struggles to make it.
      So no. It has never seen competitive play, mostly because the archetype is required and is pretty bad and even if it pulls it off, it isn't particularly worth it.

    I rarely played Montage (always for fun) for its on-field effects, but rather for the discard (although if the on-field effects won me the duel, oh well). Granted, this was back when Soul Charge was still legal to play. Have a BKB or two, and something else with decent attack plus decent effect such as Jinzo or with an effect that can be activated from the GY such as Dandylion (remember this was a while ago). Montage out, sending the others to the grave, and beat down with Montage for as long as it survives (likely no more than one turn). Then, next opportunity, Soul Charge to get all those beatsticks out of the graveyard. I also used it to get fodder in GY for Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End. Worked well in a Dragon deck with Dragon's mirror. I liked combo-ing Montage with The Creator as well, but again, in just for fun decks.

    Montage Dragon seems like a good card in theory, but in order to use it you have to give up monsters with a strong level multiplied by 300. I don't know about going a minus 3 just to gain a big attack advantage, but people play how they play sometimes. I still remember back to "On Your Mark, Get Set, Duel!" where that beast almost beat Yusei all by itself!

    I'd also like to say that extra deck monsters can also be cheated out much easier than the gods or Montage Dragon as there is level manipulation, fusion substitutions, and resource management meant to cheat out good extra deck monsters that can only make it a minus 2 or even a minus one in rare occasions. Whereas you cannot use this resources for the gods and level manipulation, like a legendary ocean, would in fact hurt Montage dragon.

      burning abyss all float, but they're low level. so you'd also need them to be high level. but then you're better off playing danger instead of this because it gets you draws. making this card's cost a discard would pop it into the danger dark world strategy because it would be a +0 in card economy and prbly give you a 4k+ body.

But it'd be fun to see it happen.

    I completely understand and kind of agree, but I have him in a dragon based deck that relies on monsters of any level being in the graveyard.

    Time for Konami to do what it does and throw a hundred new support cards at an old, dead card and make it worth playing.
    Give it a bunch of weak cards with high Levels to send to the GY who's effects trigger after being sent from the hand.
    If you had support that was all Level 10 (but with Level 2 stats) and you sent three of them things (insert dpYGO clip here), you got yourself a nice 9000 ATK monster, and then all three of those monsters could pop off Graveyard effects.
    Maybe have an Xyz monster that pops over Montage Dragon, using it as Xyz material, gains its current ATK, and then protects itself.
    Give me a couple Spells and a searcher, and suddenly Montage Dragon is in business.

    I agreed with the whole video... till you mentioned that this was a better card then the sacred beasts...
    It's better then Raviel for sure, and it'll win over the two others if they are thrown in generic decks, however Hamon works fine in a Crystal Beast deck as they synergise with eachother. Not really competitive, but still better then Montage. A properly built continuous trap based deck was capable of putting Uria into the competitive scene up until Links summons popped up, as a good anti-meta deck. Not top tier, but certainly much better then you seem to think. The only reason I am not including the Links era, is because it is the only format I am not familiar with.

It forced me to actually think about the consistency of the whole deck.

    Could use it in a deck that loves discarding or using graveyard effects, that way you just get added benefit from using those effects and you're technically not spending as much resources to bring it out. Kinda like Graceful Charity but instead of drawing 2 cards you get a beatstick. Still probably gonna get blown up, but the beefstick was the bonus in this case, while the discard was the actual effect you were fishing for. Not too sure how useful this would be in practice, but I can see it working.
