My favorite Master Duel moment was staring down a Skull Servant player with a deck that was just a bunch of Trap Cards and pulling off the Macro Cosmos + Toll Hike combo. 10/10 would suffer the ladder to do that again.
From Skull Servant beats into the dark pit of despair known as Becoming a Theatre Kid... Zombies truly were the Progression Playoffs of arche-Types... And now I guess I'm gonna go listen to some Dashboard Confessionals since that musical section towards the end was very moving, 10/10 Thank You For the Music.
The steamer luck on these pulls was awe inspiring lol. It's fun to see Joe so pleasantly surprised and happy. This series is one of my favorites. I love the concept and the execution is top notch.
Even though he still won, it was funny how he said he was locked into only attacking with zombies and had Banshee in grave that couldve made Chaos Dragon a zombie.
Oh right, Ash Blossom and Ghost Belle are tuner zombies, running at least Belle to avoid getting blown up by Called by the Grave might be useful. Eldlich can also turn them into indestructible 1000/3800 walls temporarily, which is funny when that's enough to close out a game.
You can also dodge Called By with Jack o Bolan but that's less open an option. I may do that since ZWE is one of my personal construction projects. It was fun to figure out on my own
Zombies are my favorite monster type, this is going to be good! BTW Hardleg if you ever do a N/R format challenge with zombies, you can get a very decent vampire deck with those restrictions (it gets even better with URs and SRs, vampires can easily make Beatrice so you can ensure both banshee and balerdroch hit the graveyard).
Another banger joe. I appreciate your hard work. I've gotten into master duel and you've inspired me to build a deck that can utilize the large repertoire of cyber dragon and cyber dark fusions. I'm sure it's dumb as hell to put them together but God dang it I want to fuse all the stuff! Including the probably not worth summoning Cyber Dark End Dragon! Wish me luck.
a thing I like about zombies is that because it is a type focused playstyle you can also pair it up with archetypes that are also zombies which makes it a lot of fun to find good synergies between cards
Loved those transitions here and the editing like with this random singing intermission while the opponent combos off for 10 minutes. I'm sure you could have reached the D1 if you e.g. went for the branded zombies from the start. But I prefer how you mess around with completely different versions of a deck. Even if you don't reach the final goal due to lack of practice with one thing, it's more entertaining to see a bunch of different approaches. Maybe some of the best moments when playing Skull Servants: When you basically go "ho? You can deal with one 10k skelly boi? How about a second one?" This here also shows the thing about Grass. People often cry about how this should be banned because "muh, 20 cards advantage". Sure, if it resolves, it's "often" a "guess I win" button. But Grass decks always are a gamble with a couple problems... - Good luck resolving Grass in a world where Ash is glued to everyone's hand (or Maxx, which also f's you) - it's inherently inconsistent, since you basically have to run 60 cards. You gotta draw those 3 cards out of 60, idealy with your 2-off called by....AND your own handtraps when you need them. - You can boost your chances of drawing Grass with Left Arm Offering. But this gives your opponent a prime Ash target. If you can't kill after giving your left arm, you lose. - You might just hit exactly the wrong things. Best moment when you mill all your Zombie Worlds while Banshee comfortly hides in the deck. - On those regular MD ladders you surprisingly often see some jank decks or even "meta" decks that run ~50 cards, because they for some reason have to include a bunch of Mirror Forces or other random one-offs.
IMO the reason this deck couldn't cut it is because two things: First off Zombies are simply too slow in setting up strong presences, meaning that while they can put up solid difficult to deal with boards you have too many moving parts necessary meaning that disruption or simply poor draws drastically drops the potential of this deck. Second, the end boards this deck makes simply aren't very impressive, yeah they can shut some things down and really interrupt play they simply don't get the payoff that really just equates to the POWERFUL bullshit this meta churns out much faster. Its a cool deck but its simply not potent enough nor efficient enough to make that jump to real meta contention.
1:59:22 You haven't seen the worst yet. I've once seen some one go through a full Rank 4 spam combo cycling through a dozen monsters (half of which were Samurais, of course) again, and again, and again, all to end on a four-material Rhongo _after having searched Sales Ban with a four-material Primathmech Alembertian,_ which they then activated choosing Rhongomyniad so that it couldn't detach any material during their opponent's End Phase.
It's nice that most of the best Zombie stuff is in 2 Secret packs that both have really good stuff, and Shiranuis have some starter stuff obtainable from Solo Mode if you want to include them too.
I feel like zombies needs a way to retrieve zombie world from grave and maybe some other form of protection for it and zombies could be pretty damn good.
I run a 40 or at least close to Z world Eldlich deck using Lich as an enabler over the main focus and it's actually kind of fun. There's some good room for personal tweaking and it has some rather interesting interacts with some common cards like Called By
10:40 For the curious: You removed one Glow-Up Bloom, the Shiranui Spectralsword, and the Pot of Prosperity from, and added one Necroworld Banshee, one Gozuki, and an Eldlich the Golden Lord to the main deck. In the extra you replaced the Shiranui Squiresaga, the Skillsaga Supremacy, and Baronne de Fleur with I:P Masquerena, Knightmare Unicorn, and Yuki-Onna, the Absolute Zero Mayakashi.
As you played the Skull servant variant, Almiraj is insane in the deck because than wightbaking is a 1card Combo starter for your normal summon. i myself play the GrassServants way to much on MasterDuel. But my Variant has the Shadoll's as Engine in
I love zombies, my first ever deck I ever cared about was a zombie pile. Also, my favorite skull servant tech, phalanx pike. Who said you only have three kings? WHY NOT SIX?!
Hi Mr. Leg can we get a vrains tag duel. Where you and your friends use different vrains decks against each other. This can include codetalke, gouki, altergeist ect
Maybe? At the moment the DBC is going through a string of N/R Tribal duels. And when that's over I'll probably start the Chaos Draft again. I'm not against the idea, but if I do it, it won't be anytime soon.
What's good about this series is the more he progress the less amount of gems he needs to spend to make decks as he's getting UR cards in the progress for other decks in the future *unless he just dismantle those cards without a care*
He usually does consider whether or not a card would be useful to him in future before deciding to dismantle it or not, so they are dismantled with *some* level of care.
I'm pretty stingy with what I dismantle. If it's an archetype I think is even possible to play in the future, I'll usually hold onto it. I've got a bunch of blue-eyes stuff and even some IceJades, for instance.
I just discovered you and subbed straight away. Love your vibe. I have a challenge for you sir, climb the ladder with Mermail/Atlanteans or Merlanteans for short. If you take up this challenge and need help deck building let me know lol. Merlanteans are a D tier deck that I managed to make Plat 3 consistently but have never managed to make it farther. I dare you to do better.
Surprise early video. Was building zombies the other day on my 40th account. Yesterday i accidently deleted it! Forgot to link it to another burner email. Luckily it is F2P, so it cost me time, but not money.
Would’ve made it further if you’d committed to Baller D Turbo or Zombie World Eldlich but I’m not in your chat so you know whatever gets you the bag, man.
50 card grass deck didn't work because of 45-46 card deck, but the problem is Joe always believe that 40 card is better than 45-46 when imo there are some cases where 45-46 is better, particularly if your deck have enough starter/extender but have hard garnets. You reduced the chance to draw the hard garnets and there is enough starter / extender that the ratio and chance of drawing starter doesn't change much in the 45-46 card deck. This is the philosophy of the tenyi halqdon pile deck and why they play above 40 even without grass because they have some hard garnet and a lot of starter.
It's the theme song to The Price is Right ua-cam.com/video/G8iOmVd1W_g/v-deo.html My mom used to watch it a lot when I was a kid, so I associate it with getting lucky and winning stuff lol.
What a great video mr hardleg, zombies are my favorite deck and man you really opend my eye for making some more zombie decks but i have a question for your 60 card zombie and skull servent deck do i add 2 fairytail snow cuz i have got 2 or 1 is enough?
Too bad you didnt' do this after the Zombie Structure dropped, you could have saved LOTS of UR and SR with it, since Zombie World, Uni-Zombie and Mezuki, Glow-Up-Bulb and stuf are all in it.
One of the best master duel series on youtube hands down
Remove "one of"
Oh for sure.
Hardleg is probably the best Yugituber
True, it definitely is :)
Ladder Climb is the yugioh version of those 5-hour iCarly video essays (and I mean that as a compliment)
Quinton x Hardleg collab when?
That honestly sounds like an insult.
The fact this guy did 100 duels just for one video is a hell of a lot of dedication. You sir have gained a subscriber and earned my respect.
Thanks! Glad to have you on board :)
Can't say what I love more: Hardleg's dedication, his shirts or his singing
the duel vs the D/D/Ds was sick. im glad hardleg could defeat his past self (from a different/dimension)
Different / Dimension / Djoe

I've made it surprisingly far with Skull Servant. It's cracks me up just slapping out a big ol' doot doot and attacking for game.

This is the best master duel show on UA-cam and the only flaw of it is that there are just not enough episodes to watch
I'm glad that after the misery of Kozmo Joe's been able to play actually good decks 2 months in a row
Also swapping out Yuki-Onna for Yoko is hilarious from a lore perspective
Even though he still won, it was funny how he said he was locked into only attacking with zombies and had Banshee in grave that couldve made Chaos Dragon a zombie.
I would have been salty as hell if I lost that 60 card birds deck too

Zombies have been fun for over a decade and their still going strong. This was alot of fun. Thanks hardleg and happy Halloween 🎃

Midway through the video rn, but it's still funny to me that so far, the only deck that has hit max rank is Egyptian Gods
The fact Civit puts in the effort to edit cut-ins and gags into a video that's over two hours long deserves mad respect
Ooph that MK3 Zombie deck looking mighty expensive with all them UR’s.

ok I'm only 30 minutes in but this episode has been such a wonderful time
Skull Servants are my favorite archetype, and the archetype that got me into yugioh, thanks for the vid.
Those fools don't stand a GHOST of a chance!
I feel like zombies needs a way to retrieve zombie world from grave and maybe some other form of protection for it and zombies could be pretty damn good.
Your intro is golden and gets golden-er every time
i feel like hardleg, out of all yugi-tubers, has had the worst encounters and is rendered a scarred man since floowonderies came into being
I'm glad someone recognizes my suffering.
I run a 40 or at least close to Z world Eldlich deck using Lich as an enabler over the main focus and it's actually kind of fun.
There's some good room for personal tweaking and it has some rather interesting interacts with some common cards like Called By

Hi Mr. Leg can we get a vrains tag duel. Where you and your friends use different vrains decks against each other. This can include codetalke, gouki, altergeist ect

Did rivalry of warlords change I thought it was a delcare a type. I used it a long time ago with zombie world
Hey, nice vid, for your information, "Guardian" is the same in spanish, not the same pronunciation tho

At least you got revenge on those birds.
but with the right deck (branded fusion appears) and a bit of skill (i expected maxx c to show up)

Vampires look pretty fun, I want to build them next even if they're not meta.
They are pretty neat.
Have you done Weather Painters yet? They're not too pricey, underrated, fairly competitive and, in my experience, great fun to play.
40:39 Guardian is in spanish too.
It reads wuardian instead of gardian
Spooky deck and does not go Ghostrick? Well as long as he plays Skull Servant.
Does get me to wonder what deck would be best for Christmas.
No idea. Probably something janky to make the Patrons happy. Blue-eyes maybe?
@@HardlegGaming How the heck did we forget? Starry Knight is 100% Christmas AND Jank.
Mans says he can only attack with zombies with the card in the gy that searches the card that turns everything to zombies lmao
