Hieratic, but yes. It was pretty much the exact same as the Wind-Up loop, but instead of ending with a 1500 ATK body or two on board, you ended with enough ATK to OTK your opponent next turn. It was basically draw Dark Hole or open Maxx C, or you lost.
@@Brawler_1337 Yep, that's what I meant. The level 6 dragons that get effects on being tributed. The names are too similar, so I get the two mixed up all the time.
Of course, Ogdoadic Daybreak in AGOV is basically Bishbaalkin in a busted Quick-Play that might as well be a custom card, so... Not exactly sad it's been phased out
Man, the reptile adequatestuff pile is just sad. The least terrible of EVERY reptile archetype (except like... worms) huddling together for warmth in the desperate hope to accomplish anything. Shoutouts to the bois: Masked Chameleon Performapals with bad scales. Alien Kid, Amonite, Stealthbuster, Link 2 , Link 3, Synchro 5, and that one spell Various Reptilianes that special summon and the Link two that adds a bunch of cards by looking at 0 atk monsters (hence the Bishbalkin chaperone.) King Of the Feral Imps Kagetokage That one snek that special summons when sent to grave. Snake Rain And those that should have been named Abysss.
Rose Maiden/Black Garden Gigantic Sargas/Tally-oh Auroradon Isolde Reprodocus Saryuja Alembertian for more than 2 Transverser Bethosbuster(who doesn't spell disaster anywhere else,but RedMage appears and cooks every week)
Shoutout to Gilasaurus, back in the day when you saw that card you KNEW some bullshit was about to happen because whatever deck your opponent was playing was so uninteractive they didn't care if you got a free summon. We have way better extenders nowadays but I still get flashbacks every time I see that card.
Mr. BT, I would love a Twitter thread for a "what if we had a duel links style ban list" with limit 1, 2, and 3's to see if it could fix certain interactions to take cards off the banlist or balance the metagame And if it goes well you can get even more content out of it with discussions with other top players and even a special masochist duel links style banlist tournament
First thing for Master Duel: Limited 1 for Verte and DPE. Just…why is DPE even a card? HERO-archetypes aren‘t that interesting to begin with, unless you‘re talking about the artwork.
I often think that having a supplemental system like this could help a lot, or one where you need to have a certain number of cards from an archetype to be able to play them, e.g. 5 main deck Heroes to play DPE
Why do you guys hate DPE? HERO isn't even relevant much anymore, and I quite enjoy whenever anyone is brave enough to even play archetypes like HERO, Abyss Actor, and other non meta archetypes
I think mass driver and any mass driver replacements did nothing wrong. Those cards are absolutely dogshit and would see no play in todays day and age. If a deck exists where it can summon 20+ free monsters to sack for free to kill your opponent the game has a much bigger problem, and should focus on banning enablers rather than payoffs.
@@robertbauerle5592Banning ftk enablers is a security net against FTKs, sure the enablers will probably do something else unfair but at least they won't ftk, you can put infinite monsters on the field and make an incredible board but Yu-Gi-Oh at this point has board breakers for almost everything so it will at the very least be manageable
I hold a particular grudge against part of the Vaylantz community because of all the Cyber-Stein/Fossil Dyna/Secret Village turbo they've been doing. There are so many other things this deck could do.. and they decide to turbo out the worst ones. In the meantime, I'm having a blast playing Vaylantz Synchro. And then we have the Dual Avatar community using Law of the Normal as "the only way of playing the deck". Even Despia Dual Avatar has more interaction than that, come on.
I thank god for Hardleg playing that deck because it showed me where the biggest choke point of the deck was and have been able to ruin their Total lockdown combo ever since.
It's just an issue of Vaylantz relying hard on generic Extra Deck monsters to even be worth a damn, their intended boss monsters might as well be a joke given the amount of effort needed to summon them
When the last support dropped a few years ago, I made a pure Rose Dragon deck for fun. It was bricky, but when it went off, it popped off. I ran Black Garden because it's genuinely essential for it, but a lot of people scooped upon seeing it, thinking I was about to ftk them, when in reality it was probably gonna be the only time the card was used for something fair. I'm still sad about it
There's a lot of singular cards in the modern day belonging to meta relevant decks that as soon as you see them without the out you're like "Oh, it's gonna be one of those days." but the worst for me is Mannadium. that deck does one thing and only one thing. set up King Calamity for your turn to shut you off from doing literally anything. so seeing one mannadium monsters sets off the Abyss alarm bells.
Machu mech looks like a prison because if you’re using it you’re probably committing some sort of federal offense and it’s just more convenient to have the prison on field already
Would like to see a thread about cards that fundamentally changed how people played yugioh despite how much play they actually saw just by existing. Some good examples are how cards like Transverser, Imperm, Mekk-Knights, and Anima all effected what zones you play your cards into. Malevolent Catastrophe making players set in main phase to. And the classic Gorz influecing the attack order players in his format use even to this day; long after he saw any kind of remote play.
It's a shame that despite the fact that he's a really cool card, I've been FTK'd by him so many times that I just tense up every time I see one (1) Utopia by my opponent.
It did. When Cyber-Stein showed up, he said they could’ve also mentioned Reprodocus and Telekinetic Charging Cell. As another example: Call “Winged-Beast” so you can combo into Link Simorgh and an Apex Avian infinite negate loop.
Just off the top of my head: Super Poly. It’s only ever used by evil characters in the show and it’s only ever used to break your hard made boards (aside from the times you use it so it’s ok). Only half serious.
When everyone else uses Skill Drain it's a toxic card that everyone hates. But, I use it the right way to fight the bad people that use it in a bad way.
Basically every floodgate. No, floodgates do not make your tier 4 deck into rogue because you can play under one or two. No, floodgates do not make weaker decks meta competitive. The meta decks will use any floodgates they can whenever they can themselves even. Especially in MD, where floodgate and stun decks exist _solely_ to sack, and to cheese the best of 1 system. Floodgates, especially generic ones, are entirely indefensible, objectively bad for the game in every conceivable situation, and they should all be banned. Boarder, Pachy, Amano Iwato, Skill Drain, TCBOO, Gozen, Rivalry, Lose 1 Turn, Anti-Spell, Summon Limit, Power-Sink Stone, Dweller, Bagooska, Village of Spellcasters, Mystic Mine, DBarrier, EEV, Macro, DFissure, DShifter (yes, Shifter is a floodgate, not a hand trap), etc.
Yeah but theres no other use for it, by that logic you can slap any floodgate or floodgate-like effect on this list the thread was meant to showcase cards that arent broken or toxic by design, but people abuse them most of the time
@@nbassasin8092 well I guess it's more VW then. Since after it got banned VW didn't really done much afterwards. Other than be like the 3rd best deck you could use the adventure engine for.
I'm going to add Acid Golem on here, mostly because yesterday at my locals, my opponent locked me twice using Gen and Ken from AGOV to lock me using Transverse and Acid Golem
Personally Vaylantz are most interesting as a blind second OTK strategy with no dyna or floodgates in sight. Did my Kaiba cup climb with them this format.
FR. Once you actually know the deck some of the lines you can go through with OTK vaylantz can just chew through so many interactions and still get the victory. Meanwhile the going first floodgate nonsense falls apart vs a stiff breeze.
YCS Indy round 1 I sit down next to Runick Fur Hire vs MORPHTRONIC FTK, and for the first time in my life I saw someone die of boredom as well as seeing Saryuja in physical form. The highlight being Runick scooped game two by saying “you’re at 40,000 life and I have no battle phase, game 3”. Three of four judges also came over because they were getting a kick out of seeing this and wanted to know who won. I never found out since I got up for breakfast after my round and couldn’t sit and watch any longer.
Man, it's always sad when a cute card gets abused into being an FTK enabler. Like, unironically I ran Biish in my Scared Beasts brew. If I had one of the three on the field and still had a One for One, I'd use it to get Morph King, and then summon Biish just to say that I could.
I think I'm the only person in the world who has used chthugua without it being for evil purposes. I used the deskbot halqdon tetherwolf line to make it and a properly summoned ntss in a rank 4 spam deck featuring chocolate magician girl and fortune fairy swee and jigabyte and even with all of that the best board I could make was like megaclops, utopia draco future, toad, and then a dweller with the ntss attached.
Beatrice Lady of the Eternal? It has a few legitimate uses but is Lavalval Chain that you can use in your turn and the opponent's... Maybe being a rank 6 is what keeps her safe from the getting forbidden, but since is also soft once per turn, it will probably stay limited.

Bishbaalkin could be used in a fair way by the Reptile Pile, letting you add 5 and draw 5 but locking you into the type. The most evil thing a bunch of sneks could manage is Vennominaga. Cosmic Slicer PPP? Never heard of it.
For me it's gotta be seeing your opponent get out runick fountain and then set 4 backrow pass. You just know that you're about to see some of the must unfun dm era floodgates ever printed that make you wonder if yugioh really was a mistake
Performapal Seel Eel. Which is only played because it's the only Pendulum Fish monster, therefore summonable by Coelacanth. What will happen is that they will be linked into Electrumite, they'll search Antihuman Intelligence ME-PSY-YA (another card for the list) and proceeds into banishing their deck with Cyberse Clock Dragon and do whatever flavor of the month Primal Seed loop is on the table.
Gateway of the Six is basically I summon Kizan to summon Kizan turbo that ends in a Trishula loop. It is also the closest you will ever get to performing Electric Wind God Fist on Master Duel.
th outro played, i clicked on my home feed, rememered dire always puts a post outro joke, went back to the video, scrolled to the end, no outro joke. thanks dire
7:00 God do I miss my three copies of gateway. And I know it will never come back to three and be relevant at three ever again, because if they did, all it would mean is that somehow the card had been power crept into oblivion.
I vividly recall locals back in college had a soft ban on FTK lists. You got one run with whatever solitaire vs you had cooking but then couldn't bring it again. It just led to a series of increasingly more fucked up lists being brought until they started carrying LotTG and everyone dropped that shit for Ruler Mirrors.
Black Garden was the first card to pop in my mind. Interesting topic is if burn cards should exist in the game. It's hard to find a burn card which isn't either useless or part of some FTK/stun. Only cards (besides Trickstars) I could think of are Cowboy and Ring of Destructions, but would love to hear another example
Power Tool Braver Dragon. In Master Duel at least, if you saw him, you knew the opponent was about to search Rod of Silence Kay’est and Smoke Grenade of the Thief.
At a Locals I brought a deck inspired by Playmaker from Vrains. It had Cyberse Clock Dragon in it. I was still trying to figure out how to use it, so after I lost my tournament round I passed the time with my opponent playing a fun game. My opponent went easy on me so I could practice my combos, linking off monster after mnster and even summoning Cyberse Magician. And then I got Cyberse Fusion in my hand and JUST as I was about to summon the Clock Dragon my opponents eyes grew wide and he immediately Ashes me. I asked him why he did that and he said "if that clock dragon got out on the field I would've lost." I'm still scratching my head as how that could have happened.
Yugioh really is the game of two extremes, sometimes you have the game i had this weekend with me playing Purrely vs Tear with a 45 minute game 1 that only ended because time was called and sometimes you just see a board with more interactions than you have cards to use and you just lose.
I have tuned in to exactly several Peeps streams and don't recall seeing Ruinforce (I think they Earth lock too early?) so I can only assume it's sole purpose is to FTK with that silly R10 Dora loop. Actually, Monster Gate and Reasoning are probably the bigger offenders, though they're occasionally played just as Grass stand-ins.
I say this as a Buster blader player. But dragon buster destruction sword, especially when union carrier was still legal… No one is going to have fun absolutely nobody even the person who attached the sword.
I play the lock in Dragunity because for some ungodly reason Levyaten can equip ANY Dragon from the GY, and I absolutely agree. It sucks and anyone who uses it is a bad person That being said, nothing will ever be funnier than seeing the opponent go: Normal Summon Sunseed Genius Loci, Surrender
Even though destruction sword was a broken floodgate I would say union carrier, its enabler, was much worse. It can work as a foolish burial and remember when people were attaching Buster Drake to herald of ultimateness in drytron to be immune to DRNM? Union carrier was madness
Who else remembers the darkest time in Buster blader history when people would link summon union carrier and immediately ruin your life by attaching Buster sword to stop you from being allowed to play
7:27 i fucking love the person who put this in and im glad its being brought up now by someone who isnt circle jerking over blackwings or the new raidraptor support. i tried this out with blackwings for. 3 weeks cause i love BW and wanted to see how good i can make them. and fucking HATE this line so much i swapped over to mellfy spright and i swapped right back to a pure synchro varient for the deck. in summary. fuck kali yuga turbo
Master Duel example. You see someone with a 6 card extra deck summon ZS Ascended sage and you have no handtraps, prepare to die (these are bots that run a program to always have mystic wok in their opening hand)
Mine is Worldsea Dragon Zealantis + a WATER lock.🐉💧If you use Marincess Blue Slug, Marincess Coral Anemone, or Marincess Coral Triangle effects beforehand, you WATER lock yourself with summons. So if your opponent isn't playing a WATER deck, you can play Zealantis and only summon back your WATER monsters, wiping out their entire field of monsters! I got judged called for this play because it was such a clutch game-changer 🥰
I'm a Mayakashi player so of course I have to add this one: Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower. It's a level 3 zombie that mills 2 from the opponent's deck whenever you Special Summon a zombie. There is basically no use for this card that isn't FTK bullshit, but good luck playing it these days while Tearlaments yet live!
I remember milling someone out on yugo pro back when Mayakashi was 1st released my opponent sat through the whole thing because he was so amazed to see someone actually pull it off.
@@DrAiPatch New FTKs can be kinda mystifying like that, yeah. It's kinda hard to believe that Maya can kinda just full mill you with this rando pack filler card, but it's not -that- hard lol
Any card having to do with the Egyptian Gods, I know they’re not playing an Egyptian God deck. They’re playing a lock with Ra’s Disciple and then summoning out Baronne + an Egyptian God, just to say that they won using an Egyptian God card.

Joseph, it's the middle of the night. This has better be good.
Performapal Seel Eel. Which is only played because it's the only Pendulum Fish monster, therefore summonable by Coelacanth. What will happen is that they will be linked into Electrumite, they'll search Antihuman Intelligence ME-PSY-YA (another card for the list) and proceeds into banishing their deck with Cyberse Clock Dragon and do whatever flavor of the month Primal Seed loop is on the table.
0:52 ah yes, the original prime heart
Gateway of the Six is basically I summon Kizan to summon Kizan turbo that ends in a Trishula loop.
It is also the closest you will ever get to performing Electric Wind God Fist on Master Duel.
Gotta be manticore of darkness for me. Nothing that creates an infinite loop with itself has even been used for normal purposes.
I remember Symbol of Heritage! I was using it as a revival option all the way back when Reborn was still on the list.
th outro played, i clicked on my home feed, rememered dire always puts a post outro joke, went back to the video, scrolled to the end, no outro joke. thanks dire
7:00 God do I miss my three copies of gateway. And I know it will never come back to three and be relevant at three ever again, because if they did, all it would mean is that somehow the card had been power crept into oblivion.
I vividly recall locals back in college had a soft ban on FTK lists. You got one run with whatever solitaire vs you had cooking but then couldn't bring it again. It just led to a series of increasingly more fucked up lists being brought until they started carrying LotTG and everyone dropped that shit for Ruler Mirrors.
Black Garden was the first card to pop in my mind.
Interesting topic is if burn cards should exist in the game. It's hard to find a burn card which isn't either useless or part of some FTK/stun. Only cards (besides Trickstars) I could think of are Cowboy and Ring of Destructions, but would love to hear another example
Surprised no prediction princess, only ever used to flip guard dog on the opponents turn
Power Tool Braver Dragon.
In Master Duel at least, if you saw him, you knew the opponent was about to search Rod of Silence Kay’est and Smoke Grenade of the Thief.
At a Locals I brought a deck inspired by Playmaker from Vrains. It had Cyberse Clock Dragon in it. I was still trying to figure out how to use it, so after I lost my tournament round I passed the time with my opponent playing a fun game. My opponent went easy on me so I could practice my combos, linking off monster after mnster and even summoning Cyberse Magician. And then I got Cyberse Fusion in my hand and JUST as I was about to summon the Clock Dragon my opponents eyes grew wide and he immediately Ashes me. I asked him why he did that and he said "if that clock dragon got out on the field I would've lost." I'm still scratching my head as how that could have happened.
Back before the errata "I activate Future Fusion to send all 22 of my machines and 1 Cyber Dragon from my deck. Set 1, go. Gg"
It was only in History of Jank, since the combo was so complicated and time consuming, but say the line MBT.
Oni for Oni
Yugioh really is the game of two extremes, sometimes you have the game i had this weekend with me playing Purrely vs Tear with a 45 minute game 1 that only ended because time was called and sometimes you just see a board with more interactions than you have cards to use and you just lose.
one of my favorite war criminal applications of summoner monk is using him to summon out ZS-Ascend Sage and doing the Utopia FTK
Seein Cherubini in Master Duel with no handtraps in hands was a signal from the heaven to just go outside and touch some grass
Magma in Bishbaalkin a while back was one of those "aw fuck" cards
I remember using Toon Table to search for itself and Toon Cyber Dragon in Striker Train to fuse into Megafleet and set up Engage.
I have tuned in to exactly several Peeps streams and don't recall seeing Ruinforce (I think they Earth lock too early?) so I can only assume it's sole purpose is to FTK with that silly R10 Dora loop.
Actually, Monster Gate and Reasoning are probably the bigger offenders, though they're occasionally played just as Grass stand-ins.
3:56 [pukes], and I didn't bring my bucket.
Now that YCS Indianapolis happened, we can add Neo Space Connector to the list.
2018 when the pendulum plaayer activates instant fusion and you had no hand traps
I say this as a Buster blader player.
But dragon buster destruction sword, especially when union carrier was still legal…
No one is going to have fun absolutely nobody even the person who attached the sword.
I play the lock in Dragunity because for some ungodly reason Levyaten can equip ANY Dragon from the GY, and I absolutely agree. It sucks and anyone who uses it is a bad person
That being said, nothing will ever be funnier than seeing the opponent go: Normal Summon Sunseed Genius Loci, Surrender
Even though destruction sword was a broken floodgate I would say union carrier, its enabler, was much worse.
It can work as a foolish burial and remember when people were attaching Buster Drake to herald of ultimateness in drytron to be immune to DRNM? Union carrier was madness
Fitting release timing given what happened at the recent YCS
Surprised to not see blaze fenix tbh.
Who else remembers the darkest time in Buster blader history when people would link summon union carrier and immediately ruin your life by attaching Buster sword to stop you from being allowed to play
Intro caught me off guard. Didn’t expect TADC
I know it’s more of an engine than a proper deck but if I see any evidence that my opponent is playing Predaplants my soul just exits my body
7:27 i fucking love the person who put this in and im glad its being brought up now by someone who isnt circle jerking over blackwings or the new raidraptor support. i tried this out with blackwings for. 3 weeks cause i love BW and wanted to see how good i can make them. and fucking HATE this line so much i swapped over to mellfy spright and i swapped right back to a pure synchro varient for the deck. in summary. fuck kali yuga turbo
Joseph seems like the kind of person that would be Jax if he was in the digital circus ngl
My face when my opponent summons bone tower and I didn’t open any hand traps:🗿
These intros are causing me to climax sooner! Keep up the good work Maestro Big Turbulence!
Honestly surprised Telephon wasn't on here.
I've not once seen anything fair that damn card is doing.
As a Morphtronic player I'm sorry, but it's not my fault that konami doesnt give us links nor synchros, so we gotta adapt
Master Duel example. You see someone with a 6 card extra deck summon ZS Ascended sage and you have no handtraps, prepare to die (these are bots that run a program to always have mystic wok in their opening hand)
If you remember symbol of heritage being on the list you qualify for senior discount
"He does not need a non-Tuner." H... how did I never realize that? What the fuck??
Mine is Worldsea Dragon Zealantis + a WATER lock.🐉💧If you use Marincess Blue Slug, Marincess Coral Anemone, or Marincess Coral Triangle effects beforehand, you WATER lock yourself with summons. So if your opponent isn't playing a WATER deck, you can play Zealantis and only summon back your WATER monsters, wiping out their entire field of monsters!
I got judged called for this play because it was such a clutch game-changer 🥰
Guilty as charged for using Cupid Pitch into Corridor in my Tomahawk Turbo deck in Master Duel
Was thinking Darklord Nurse and the continuous trap that does the same thing.
You could make an argument for Union carrier used outside of ABC's
No normal monsters surprised me. Was expecting to see Jerry or some equally shoehorned vanilla
S.Monk is slept on
Special Grinder Golem, bounce Grinder golem, Special Grinder golem, bounce Grinder golem...
Unrelated to anything, when I saw Bishbaalkin in the thumbnail, I thought it was a pizza.
Bro you should do a ten minute testing over plunder patroll + chimera fusion, I think it's decent and really fun
1:36 and as of this weekend, Acid Golem
I'm a Mayakashi player so of course I have to add this one: Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower. It's a level 3 zombie that mills 2 from the opponent's deck whenever you Special Summon a zombie. There is basically no use for this card that isn't FTK bullshit, but good luck playing it these days while Tearlaments yet live!
I remember milling someone out on yugo pro back when Mayakashi was 1st released my opponent sat through the whole thing because he was so amazed to see someone actually pull it off.
@@DrAiPatch New FTKs can be kinda mystifying like that, yeah. It's kinda hard to believe that Maya can kinda just full mill you with this rando pack filler card, but it's not -that- hard lol
that hippo will never roll a nat 20
the hippo:
Any card having to do with the Egyptian Gods, I know they’re not playing an Egyptian God deck. They’re playing a lock with Ra’s Disciple and then summoning out Baronne + an Egyptian God, just to say that they won using an Egyptian God card.
1:45
Hot take: Master Duel is unironically healthy for the game.
i am losing my mind
Even MBT has been affected by The Amazing Digital Circus
I was surprised to not see Silva on the list here
Seeing Gale Dogra reminds me when people were using it in Shaddolls of all things?
"i summon The Last Warrior from Another Planet"
