    I by chance watched one of your videos and absolutely loved your voice, how you explain cards + their viabilities, and animation. Being a retired duelist since xyz (I watched zexal last), it made me reminisce a lot and got me teary-eyed when you mention some of my favourite cards in your videos (Nurse Reficule for one).
    Anyway, I have a deck of my own that I would love to see again. It involves these 4 cards
    -Anti-Spell Fragrance
    -Dark Simorgh
    -(that one ritual spell that involves sending Normal monsters from deck to grave)
    -Demise, King of Armageddon* (I think it's called)
    Back when Spellbooks ruined everyone's games in DuelingNetwork, this deck was a literal godsend and I really want to see it again if you're up for it.

    • @HazeEmry
      @HazeEmry 6 років тому

      Btw, I almost got drafted into an online tourney team BECAUSE of this deck too tbh. This, / my Lvl 2 Aqua + Wetland field spell + (the card that doesnt allow cards above 1500atk) + (the card whose effect = no cards level 4 and higher can attack) / and one other synchro deck I sadly forgot but still remember the mechanics of demolished another duelist and her teammates. They were so impressed I almost joined their team but couldn't because I was a broke kid and was playing at a cyber cafe most of the time lol.

    @SashaWS 6 років тому

    I agree that the Artifact archetype is good. If you combine with the Superheavy Samurai archetype, which requires you to have no spell and trap cards in your GY, you have quite a sweet combo for surprising your opponent. That said, a good duelist knowing the main thing about both those archetypes can easily see through this strategy and know well enough to not pop any S/T removers. Just thought I would share this info to show one use of the Artifact archetype.

    I like Chakram for saving my face downs that I don't want popped. I actually made a few versions of a BLS deck with the artifacts for the lights, and a few interesting dark monsters. I don't remember which ones but I think Breaker the Magical Warrior and Breaker the Dark Magical Warrior were in some versions, mostly because breaker is an MST that can attack, and 1600 ATK isn't bad for a lv4. I don't remember some of the other darks I ran but they were interesting picks.
    I basically play a ton of weird decks online and I'm thinking that if I had the money for it I'd buy all the cards for the decks irl and they'd be a lot of fun... But that's also more money on sleeves and deck boxes, so that's not great.
    I've never really played the hands, mostly because they never appealed to me. Virus decks are fun when running Lair of Darkness, but rely heavily on getting Grave Grinning Virus off, and using Doom Virus Dragon over Crush Card Virus. That's kind of a problem, but it's a disgustingly satisfying deck to pull off

And seeing as the monster cards in in the Archtype cover all attributes except divine I can summon every single one of my Extra deck monsters

    Top ten gimmick/rogue decks with the weird Legacy of the Duelist: Evolution, last updated March 24, 2020. I enjoy playing gladiator beasts, but would like to hear more about other rogue/gimmick decks as it's the only yugioh I play and have to tailor decks to it's weird banlist and cards. Definitely niche videos, but if they never update the game again the video content will always be relevant.

    And if you happen to run High level Dark monsters with your Predaplant engine, you can go into Greedy Venom Fusion Dragon, who on destruction, nukes all monsters on the field, and can banish a high level DARK monster (like the other material you used for it) to ressurect himself

    Some other good spashable options are Darkwurm + gates (quick lvl 4 and/or scales), Symphonic (7 scale, lvl 5 mon with extra normal, plus can work with Witches), and Dinosaur (problem being that it could overshadow a gimmick deck easily)

    As a person who heavily plays the Relinquished pantheon, I'm a particularly big fan of Kaijus and even Lava Golem (a combo that is as old as...Lava Golem). "Ha ha ha ha...I have Apollousa with 3200 Atk!" "I have Gamaciel and Pre-Preparation" "What! This cannot beeee!". I can't really emphasize how many times this exact interaction has gone down on YGOPRO.

    When I saw the title I thought you were talking about Gimmick puppets? lol

    Kuribohs are fun to play with Chaos/Envoy monsters. Need light and dark monsters in your graveyard? Here's a whole archetype of light and dark monsters that specialize in sending themselves to the graveyard.

    I bet you could make some interesting decks by combining these archetypes, too. Wonder how many you could fit into a single deck and still be good.
