Running Barrage and 1-2 Zoo names as a small engine in decks that don't need too much extra deck is definitely going to be the play going forward for some decks I think.
I think it fits in some decks better than others, I'm enjoying tri brigade zoo but I've seen people trying it in other decks as well, the engine is really nice if you would already play tenki but don't need it for main line, just make a zoo
im on traptrix and running a small barrage package dramatically improves the deck. drydent is good going first, and boarbow being a non-effect way to get to zeus breaks a good amount of decks.@@epthopper
There are much better decks that use Bystials. The concept of playing two standalone engines that are good on their own but don’t have strong interactions with each other isn’t gonna give you an end product that’s too great

I'd like to see how a small Zoo package would work in Unchained with the new support. Barrage has never been legal at the same time as Unchained, and Drident and the current version of Unchained haven't been legal together either. I'm not confident it would be better than a more pure Unchained build, but there might be something there. I think Zoo's going to have a place as a splashable engine in decks that can plus from popping and also use the free bodies/xyz monsters the Zoo engine can provide, whether they use it to facilitate an easier UDF/Zeus or even just an extra Drident for the endboard.
Zoo Kashtira goes hard. 3 Barrage, 3 Tenki and 5-6 Zoo names with Planet, 2 Fenrir, 3 Unicorn, 1 Scare Kash, 1 Riseheart and 1 of each spell feels very good. Ideally you summon Unicorn, Rat into Chak into UDF before comitting to Ariseheart. You get to run Shifter too. It's extremely toxic.
And yes, Zoo is absolute butts against backrow, as someone who plays a lot of Lab and Striker I can confirm that you will not have much trouble dealing with Drident Pass, and will probably have set answers to Boarbow. 2-3 LS on top of a Duster is practically a must against those decks and even Rikka.
Any video is instantly elevated by the Chrono Trigger soundtrack in the background. Corridors of Time is my favorite track from my favorite game of all time. I still have my SNES and play the game once a year. Been doing this since 1995. Middle school was instantly changed by this.
That's what I thought it was. Been playing that game on the DS since I was a kid, still occasionally play it. It has to be my favorite game of all time, other than Final Fantasy 7.
....is it worth it to run 1 Daigusto Emeral in Zoodiac in MD in case there's a need to recycle the one and only Zeus they get in the format and Avarice is MIA?
been playing a build with dogmatika and adventure, fenrirs, ton of handtraps, just 3 zoo names 3 barrage 3 tenki. The only thing you want to be normaling turn 1 is ratpier anyway, cause drident pass just kinda doesnt cut it, upping the name count gets to thoroblade + ramram more often but also bricks you with normal summons whereas you can layer the different engines more effectively, Grinds very bad compared to regular zoo but regular zoo often needs like 10 turns to lethal by which point a rival deck has established their most likely superior grind anyway. Idea is more a bunch of cards that are good on their own kitchen sink style, all both good going 1st and 2nd, relatively good into maxx c, try to steal games with big zeus plays and choke them out with handtraps. It's not meta I don't think, but it's doing alright for me in duelist cup. Lots of zoo and handtraps felt awful.
oh btw rtpier is better cause its a 1 card utopic future not sure why josh wasnt going for that. Also why you just dont play the trap, always send ram revive with chak pop with drident revive chak make f0 into draco
this is my all time favorite deck i went to nationals. in 2017 with true draco zoo and it won the whole tournament not me but basically my deck and I still play it today 3 diagram 3 masterpiece 3 barrage is a wild day on the field of yugioh for anyone
I don't think I'd play Pure Zoo even if the unlimited cards were cheaper. An engine in other XYZ decks(i.e. Kashtira) or decks with little to no Extra Deck usage(VS is an obvious one, and True Draco could be funny with all the Tenkis and Barrages) seems much more practical, though as a dedicated going second build you could try Zeus Turbo, cover it with Eagle Booster to preserve extra uses, and close out the game with Linkage or UDF. Seeing UDF builds used by Purrely and Kashtira fall flat have soured me heavily on that card though.
Now hear me out: If you start M1 by special summoning Unicorn and then normal summon Ratpier you can get to F0 before commiting to the Arise-Heart line. Is it broken? No. Is it bricky? It's Kashtira, of course it is. But even ending on Fenrir + Drident in just 4 summons can be pretty strong. Since Kashtira doesn't use half its Extra Deck or its Normal Summon most of the time I bet you that the Zoodiac build of Kashtira is the superior build of Kashtira in MD right now. You can even set up Arise-Heart + Fenrir in exactly 5 summons and if they Nibiru you just do the F0 line afterwards. Pure Zoo is garbage though. Zoo stun might be interesting since you only ever *need* 2 summons and you can play Gozen & Rivalry so that's 5 floodgates you could play just off the top of my head. That's just worse stun though. I have seen Runick Zoo and I like the idea. Barrage clears your EMZ, Geri is a 4 for Dweller or Bagooska and F0 is a good card.

@@ThatOneWeirdFlex Broadbull might add consistency to Tri-Brigade but I'm not sure that's what the deck needs. I spoke of Ratpier at more than one copy and yes, it's a free +x from the deck (x being the number of legal copies minus the number you opened plus whatever ways you have to return summoned Ratpiers to the deck during this turn) but I'm not sure how easy it is to loop Ratpier and how unfair even a single +1 like that really is.

That's how people were playing Dino back in 2017 lol. Every deck that could benefit from Barrage's pop or just a free Broadbull search plus Drident played 3x Barrage when it was legal. I'm sure it still works just as well as it always has, if not better.
Yeah, M-X Saber got added a little while ago, a 3.5 axis build on Terrortop/Taketomborg and a bunch of Ghost Girls could definitely make use of it, just remember Ratpier has to be Normal Summoned to dump so it isn't worth specialing out until Konami gets wild and decides a second one is safe to bring back)

@@FakeHeroFang that is kinda my point, branded doesn't have a big non engine place (at least in MD and ocg since the maxx c package is huge), and against labyrinth you basically lost once they activate d barrier. Purrely is still running wild on the ladder you just have been lucky so far and with the small noir coming out very soon the deck will be even harder to deal with, and branded doesn't have an in engine way of dealing with purrely or even a line to out it consistently enough. And with emergency around the corner too, rescue ace will be way too strong for branded to deal with. Branded is still a great deck, probably one of the best ways to play fusions now since tears are all dead, but considering the other decks, it is nowhere near the top.
@@FakeHeroFang generally branded is "too fair" of a deck, mathmech stops you fully from playing the game, dragon link out resources every deck in the game, rescue ace with emergency is just fuck you turbo with setting 4 from deck and you need on average 2 interactions per monster to stop their effects and Purrely sits on a tower that loops the hell out of all of ur cards (even if sent to the gy noir can still target them there) and it has been tiered with 1 delicious in the TCG, we have 2 legal. I won't say much about kashtira since it is a clunky mess, but vanquish soul also outressources branded and they can consistently negate ur fusion, fallen of albaz and even play around ur fusion effects.
I don't think Zoodiac is going to be the most broken deck again but come on, why are we going first with Zoodiac? Our main gameplan should be to make Zeus. Avarice is also the most cope card ever, idk why you'd ever play that in 2023.
The only good thing about Avarice right now is that it works as a Thrust target, getting you marginally more value than using Talents as a Pot of Greed(and usable in a few more situations), but you almost never want to use Talents as a Pot of Greed to begin with. I unironically choose to run Herc Base over Avarice as my way of putting back cards in Striker nowadays(which has won me games slightly faster in some cases than I would otherwise, but still feels REALLY wonky to run).
The deck is stupid even in its current state. Its bigges strength being that is amazing ging first and second all the while shitting on all major handtraps in the game. He should play more board breakers that are good going first or second in his list. Avarice is crazy in this deck an fit is the right choice to play it.
@@BananenBread The deck isn't good at going first, Drident pass or UDF pass isn't going to cut it in 2023. Avarice is also terrible in this deck because it's literally a turn 3 card and does nothing going first or second. There's a very valid reason nobody plays it, not even good Zoodiac decks.
@robottobor7276 That's because you throw 3 handtraps or board breakers at your opponent, then normal a zoodiac to go into Zeus. Your non-engine is supposed help your normal summon push through and if it's not doing that, you have to go back into the deck building process or Zoodiac is just not good in that given format.
33:45 ”Kash can’t make Tomohawk easily and it’s not that good. Only dragon rulers can summon it with advantage” the other mbt take that is fuckin absurd😂
Go on, explain how kash makes tomahawk super easy? Because where I'm standing you need either unicorn search birth with another name or fenrir search arisheart. Both lines you lose everything else the deck can do and you just pray your opponent has nothing to stop tomahawk. lol
@@phstingray205if your gameplan is to turbo tomahawk you won't just play kash cards you play generic lvl 7 extenders. If we're being fair here what one card combo does rulers have that can turbo tomahawk
They're both wrong, the best deck at turboing Tomahawk is Armed Dragons with Tempest. It's still 'please don't negate my massive chokepoint.dek' no matter how you play it though, so who really cares.
The deck is extremely stupid. IT doesnt care whether it goes first or second and plays under every single major handtrap in the entire game. You should however put in some board breakers that are good going first or second like: econ or book. Even though it doesnt look like much drident pass, backed by a backrow and a handtrap, is more than enought to stop all decks.

33:45 ”Kash can’t make Tomohawk easily and it’s not that good. Only dragon rulers can summon it with advantage” the other mbt take that is fuckin absurd😂
Go on, explain how kash makes tomahawk super easy? Because where I'm standing you need either unicorn search birth with another name or fenrir search arisheart. Both lines you lose everything else the deck can do and you just pray your opponent has nothing to stop tomahawk. lol
@@phstingray205 I mean it worked here. Never said it was super easy
@@phstingray205if your gameplan is to turbo tomahawk you won't just play kash cards you play generic lvl 7 extenders. If we're being fair here what one card combo does rulers have that can turbo tomahawk
@@phstingray205and what does the d-rulers do beyond tomahawk
dracosack ?
They're both wrong, the best deck at turboing Tomahawk is Armed Dragons with Tempest. It's still 'please don't negate my massive chokepoint.dek' no matter how you play it though, so who really cares.
The deck is extremely stupid. IT doesnt care whether it goes first or second and plays under every single major handtrap in the entire game. You should however put in some board breakers that are good going first or second like: econ or book. Even though it doesnt look like much drident pass, backed by a backrow and a handtrap, is more than enought to stop all decks.
Zoo kash is the best way to play it….🤷🏽♂️
24:13 Nah bro you are stupid for this, there are literal one card combos that can FTK...stop the cap 😂😂
We call those decks toxic, point flew right over your head
