The Tale of the Fiendsmith | Behind the Effect

The Fiendsmith is a merciless demon hunter who turns the demons he defeats into his private weapons. He also is one of the most powerful 1-card combos printed in modern Yugioh. Lore and effects may appear as unrelated in Yugioh, but in Behind the Effect I show how these may be more connected than first expected, starting with Fiendsmith.

I was really looking forward to this archetype, both for it's theme, gameplay and because it's on of the few engines that work with Labrynth. I was really bothered when it was so strong and so generic it made getting them a huge investment. One last thing. Engraver and crimson seem to have reversed hair colour.

I really wish Fiendsmith as a pure deck was more playable too. I really like the cards, but the optimal way of playing them is just as a small engine where you don't make use of their cool mechanics.

[@lefteron6804]

@@hootclesia i know. It would have been best if there was a number of maindeck light fiends and using different ones would give the extra deck monsters different effects.

[@hootclesia]

Another way would be to focus more on the playstyle enabled by Agnus Dei and main deck Lacrima I think. Engraver and Lacrima being the only monsters really dooms it to being an engine. Makes sense lorewise, but gameplay wise it makes the deck pure worse.

I wouldn’t mind if the Fiend Smiths Fought the D/D/D Kings, especially their Lesser D/D fiend Servents!
It would make sense why you thinking about each of them!

The ddd aren't that bad though? Businessmen doing business things
Most recurring theme in yugioh is demon and dark monster aren't always bad.
Ddd are in the gray area because they are simply offering assistance with a cost.

Fantastic video! It's nice to notice all the detail the Konami artists put into the cards and acknowledge it. Really look forward to the next installment in the series!

[@Paradise07]

I hope this can be a game for playable like devil my cry😅😹

[@hootclesia]

That sounds fun! It also would show the dynamic between Engraver and Lacrima more, which is something I like a lot about this archetype :P
