I have been playing ignis phönix so I can pend summon out the kirin without lockinh myself into majespecter with the link 2. It also helpd with handtraps. Iam also playing 3 luster pendulum alongside with it.
Konami keeps giving me the cards I want when I want to make new decks. Scrapped an ashened deck only for them to get new support. Was wishing for a way to search the tach trap only to get the tach searcher for galaxy a day later. Tried to make a majespector deck wishing for kirin only to get it after this banlist. 2024 is a great year for yugioh.
Idk if this is a hot take or not, but imo kirin is not only not a good card by 2024 standards, but actually pretty bad. It's a pendulum scale with no effect, not a starter or extender, you can't normal it, and all it does is add one interruption to your end board. Now that interruption is fairly good, a targetted bounce is solid, but it's for all intents and purposes... kinda just a brick? Like even in pure majespecter you basically need to summon it off of the rank 4, you can't even pendulum summon it. If you draw it, it almost has to be used as a scale.
this deck seems consistent enough that prosperity is cuttable IMO, running 1 of ignis phoenix the dracoslayer also enables kirin to be pend summoned, giving you a better grind game. Majesty's pegasus seems better than necrovalley also since it can act as an extender
Doesn't really seem like Kirin adds a whole lot to the deck unfortunately. It still lives or dies by setting up the floodgate field spells so getting Kirin on board isn't all that amazing if you can't set it up. Still really cool that he's finally free though.
Took them long enough. Kind of silly the TCG decided to bring back Protos and Colossus but decks are getting MUCH better at playing through those so it is what it is.
The thought process is we are going to release more decks that are advantage engines, meaning you can just stuff the decks with lots of handtraps, its the argument cause you can combat it means you will be fine. But we all know just because you can doesnt mean you should.
Savage and baronne are banned so it's not as bad as before, but apo is still rampant and rogue decks like orcust, horus decks etc can make other negates as well, but the best deck doesnt make many negates to my knowledge
Only apo and stuff like photon lord for horus decks, although those can also make sanaphond which no one plays for some reason Salamangreat and voiceless have the only omnis this format, and mannadium if they remain playable without baronne I suppose Talents, evenly and other board breakers are projected to be really strong now
Noooooooo :( Instead of being an interactive deck that can control with bounces, spells, and traps, it just became another floodgate deck :( Branded with puppet feels the same. You take a really cool deck and make it boring by turning it into floodgate turbo.
Play white wing magician instead of luster. Luster is absolutely useless as a card. At least white wing can be summoned by Ryu and can be a tuner that can actually be used to synchro summon.
Adding more to the endboard doesn't do anything. The deck dies on Link 2 and always will. If you went uninterrupted you already had a decent chance at winning due to the insane advantage you generate.
That's always been the problem with pendulum. Like yeah, the turn one boards are insane, but they just don't have the redundancy and recursion that lets modern decks play through or grind out interruption.
One possible card you could add to counter Nib for this deck, at least see if it’s a viable option, is Bamboozling Gossip Shadow
Generic rank 3
Hmm, not so sure about that card.. 😅
Why lithuim look like a kid who found his favorite toy lol 🤣🤣
omg 😭😭😭 i love comments like this he’s so cute tho
He's missed Kirin....
might get back into the game for these guys, idk why but i always loved their design
NONENGINE IN A PENDULUM DECK
Man's busy today
He's had the craziest 6 hours lol

Bro, we knew ashened was getting a second wave in LEDE ever since the FIRST wave was announced. Thats how the TCG exclusive archetypes always work
@@alexanderbrown3501 The point is videos and support came out at a convenient time for me when I was interested in playing them already at that point.
Its a spellcaster too, so endymion is gonna have fun!

Yeah tbh I don't know why it was banned for so long when we have Fenrir
@@fukou_dabecause TCG SAYS “PENDULUMS ARE LE BAD”
Perfectly said, even if it came to 3 people would play one, as a one of brick that can be an extra interruption.
Illusion of chaos souls dump from deck into graveyard and special summon from graveyard with selene as quick effect seems solid to me
Lotta cards for 1 bouce dontcha think? @@幽霊船-o4h

What do you think about the Vaylantz field spells, they help you play through nib
Eagle booster instead of crossout to protect single link monster plays
crossout is much more versatile imo
yeah, no
The eagle booster idea is not so bad actually, however Cross out being able to negate Nib is more flexible

Always the beast
One of my Favorite Pend Decks is not such a Neagte Pile 😅
Oh no more because of the Banlist 😊
Kirin back is nice, it’s card is fair now
card have been fair or even for 5 years
I feel like Kirin will be meta but idk about majespectors

There is no playing through Protos though. Only preventing it, unless your deck has a lot of attributes.
@@babradOr they just don’t have the right attribute.
@@strangevol5264 You can't play through Lingering effects

@@strangevol5264swoso can easily call any attribute except for wind
What does the current meta look like? Is it still full of negates or is it actually playable?

Noooooooo :(

It always was a floodgate deck.
any potential control type playstyle with Majespecter died along with the og pend rules.
I blame that on mr4. All pendulum decks are forced to play link monster which is suck . It means u need -4 just to set up your regular control board.
alright time to see if Kirin is actually still a problematic card that even OCG won't unban
Play white wing magician instead of luster. Luster is absolutely useless as a card. At least white wing can be summoned by Ryu and can be a tuner that can actually be used to synchro summon.
Need a new ancient gear video brooo
*PENDULUM*
None of the snake eye did the correct combo :(
try it with metalfoe, makes for a better deck imo
Those are bricks..
Yeah but show us a game where the opponent goes first and you don’t have 3 ht
Oh sorry for running that many ht 😂
Can you make a Pendulum Magician with kirin?
Pendelums lost their synchros… Need to see how they adept
Good video, as always. But this is not impressive. Adding Kirin does nothing realistically to improve the deck.
Yeah exactly he won all games because of the field spell
Even more reason why it didn't make sense why they didn't bring it back last list. Konami...

@@Kumo-s6f If they were free to pendulum summon unrestricted, then there would be a conversation.
Draco face off, is a good card for this deck
