Not very powerful? Eh... Um...

@Ammokkx

Utopia the lightning in the second Vid... My point stands.

None of those float, though. Having big dumb monsters is fine, but being able to constantly summon them off their own effects while getting +1's off of their second effects (popping, summoning more stuff) and having a good chunk of 3rd party support behind them is not.

Quantals are a combo deck focused on one, big fuck-off monster.

Kaiju is two big monster facing off in Tokyo central.

Sub-Terrors is setting big monsters, then hoping the opponent doesn't have removal.

Cubics rely on like, two monsters to be good (Vijam and the purple cube thing)

@Ammokkx

Can confirm This is how super quants are But Its terrrifying that Magnus with the Blade is still run over by Utopia The Lightning and I know I can Pop a Material but that Just Weakens Magnus. Go below 4 and what was the point in summoning it.

Some of N39 was a mistake.

In Other news Aromas are pretty fun granted due to lonefire being powerful. My Ghost Reaper/Ogre deck is working well and Naturia/ Sylan is fun but pointless. And my 13 Traphole deck is doing fine to.

Anyone up for a game of Devpro? need to exercise my yugioh muscle more, if so just pm me a time.

Test 23 of The Alphan Ball card for Super quant.

Rediculously fun.

Meanwhile I'm just here enjoying old archetypes with new cards, like Ancient Gear.

Unfortunately, the decks I build tend to be one-trick ponies. My Ancient Gear deck is almost entirely focused on summoning Chaos Giant, and has very little in the way of backup plans.

@Scarifar

I would say that deck is super super awesome. IF ark or castel didn't exist which is a shame. god dang staples being op.

Suddenly that raises the question of if a trap hole used through raffle is a monster effect or a trap effect. Nevermind. Its a monster effect. Raffle can snipe him too.

The Duel Tower: The first year students. (A Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Academy Roleplay.) [Axed]

In all honesty it's the card art and the aspects of some of the lesser archetypes that keep me playing yugioh. I hate first turn uncrackable boards. Infinity, Buster Dragon, Majespecter stuns, and toadally awesome along with all their respective bull really makes me personally angry. I WANT to play this game. I don't want to auto lose because you have six and a half traps and recyclable monsters that summon back those traps that all stop me from even trying to do ANYTHING.

@vancexentan

Here here. I am in the same boat. but I also run Rafflesia that can basically ruin whatever Summon your attempting. But the deck still dies to destruction spels like raigeki and Dark hole etc. But yea First turn uncrackable boards make me question this game at times. (but I still have a soft spot for first turn Magnus)

The Duel Tower: The first year students. (A Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Academy Roleplay.) [Axed]

Possibly. But I would see them limiting desires as well. Both of them have been big game changes. Especially desires with decks like shiranui. Mill 10? Lol ok I'll just omega them back into the grave.

@vancexentan

True. To be honest I find It a little annoying when the first player, ususally has the much better chance to win due to the fact they have the possibility to combo off first.

But nothing beats ruining your opponents day with a deck that contains 13 trap holes and the will to use them and a sideboard that (now anyways) contains Cherries and the key cards from most meta decks (cough dante) and it works pretty well as an anti meta deck. Sure its not a 100% winrate but that is to be expected.

Honestly sometimes I thick Yugioh is a little rapid for its own good with the new archetypes.

The Duel Tower: The first year students. (A Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Academy Roleplay.) [Axed]

True enough but that means we may see a change in the meta soon. The fact that ABC, arguably the top deck in our current format, was beaten by BA in such a big way multiple times has to mean we'll be seeing an influx of cherries, or BA again. Dante can't escape the ban list forever.

@vancexentan

Or we'll see the relimiting of allure. whichever happens first.

The Duel Tower: The first year students. (A Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Academy Roleplay.) [Axed]

Well Cherries literally snipes out extra deck threats aka The format staples.
Allures unbanning was a mistake. BA was never weak and Allure just massively buffed the dark attribute as a whole.
