Diaper Network General crying their irrelevant game is dying lmao

>>531675479
That's a really severe drawback if you don't have a trap in GY. It didn't have to be that harsh but you'll probably just have to use it early.

I just realized that it's good when first against handtraps. I'm a dumb

Dem Niggas Gay general will tell you the game was not always shit then use a dogshit format as an example of a good time to play YGO.

Almost 25 slots left.

>>531675479
It's shit. Like what do you want me to do with this shit

>>531675772
>2 Main Deck
>2 Synchro
>1 Spell
How the fuck would that help Plant Synchro.deck

>>531675479
its a good card that doesn't fit in any of my decks. I'm just waiting for chaos to get their own dominus trap in the future.

Holy fuck this is genuinely terrible

>Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must be Special Summoned (from your GY) by banishing 2 monsters from your GY with 2500 ATK or DEF. You can only Special Summon "Regenesis Demiurge" once per turn this way. If this card is Special Summoned: You can target cards in your opponent's field and/or GY up to the number of your banished monsters with 2500 ATK or DEF; return them to the hand. Monsters your opponent controls lose 2500 ATK during the Battle Phase only.

>>531675772
Im guessing no more new archetypes

Dracotail needs a another fuse from hand effect and a real boss monster.

>>531676319

There's usually:
>about 10 packfiller slots
>about 10 cards revealed during tomorrow's stream(black rose, albaz, and chase card)
>there's still the JUHU support
So thats about it, maybe one of the remaining pack fillers might be a one off legacy support and thats about it

>>531676571
And you play AIDS

>>531676639
>>about 10 cards revealed during tomorrow's stream

how many hours until the stream? I'd love to wake up to some new lab support

nuh uh

that's cute

>>531675479
Is that the unchained doggo?

>>531677337
nah its just a white woman and a dog

This set is BORING

>>531677557
Those proportions tho

>>531677506
I like Magnifistorm, the new Dominus and hopefully the Justice Hunter support us good

Super Quants are so cool
Glad they're truly functional now

>>531677437
Zexal uniform SEXOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>531677506
I kinda like the doomz gimmick of xyz with equip cards as mats...but thats about it. It's impressive how many times in a row they've made sets with so littlest offer. No wonder no one is buying these things

The gang's all here.

Should I be happy they don't rush the pacing or should I be worried they will end it on a cliffhanger at this rate?

>>531679958
>or should I be worried they will end it on a cliffhanger at this rate?
The Sky Striker ones ended abruptly so yeah, expect the worst.

>>531679958
Wouldn't be surprised if they leave it incomplete as a "Please buy the Valuable Books and other art books" type of deal

>>531679958
>half
Unless something was stated recently, Story of White doesn't have a set episode count

>>531681001
They said it would have six episodes after the Striker short ended
At this pace, we will end the short right when Despia clowns attack the Tri-Brigade

>>531681001
It was this.

This gives me enough copium that one will be springans along with a springan bandaid. I can feel it.

Boi

Why did Konami recently make a half good archetype like Regenesis which is one card away from being tier 1, only to give it 3 dogshit slow bricks in two "support" waves that do not fix the deck issues while decade old archetypes are getting supports left and right which make them into tier 1 decks. I bet if archetype was full of little half naked girls they'd give it a good support

>>531682349
Dont rile up the british anon

>>531682696
Don’t kid yourself
Nekroz has little girls (hags) and the new support is still ass

>>531676037
It's literally over for the archetype, this was the last monster attribute they were missing and that's their gimmick, they will not give them normal summon monster, Konami destroyed this deck on purpose with bad support, printing spell speed 1 board breaker, normal instead of continuous trap, and another brick that needs multiple round setup, the game is too fast for this deck to be competitive

>>531683358
Emilia doesn't really look like a little girl though.

>>531682696
>promising first wave, followed by garbage waves that cement it as a packfiller archetype to be forgetting within months
It's more common than you think. Regenisis simply wasn't chosen to be a contender, thats it. It's weird because they fill the sets with so many of these garbage new archetypes and also bump their rarity, and are surprised when no one wants to waste money on their sets.

Materiactors needing more engine pieces and then they make a shitty vanilla and a shittier field spell

It's the DUAV rarity changes. It was talked about various threads ago.

Why does /dng/ seethe about older formats?

Do we talk about anime here?

I'm trying to remember a show. Potential spoilers. I feel like there was some crockney/australian guy who died in a duel. It was a hero battle that went on for like 5 episodes, then at the end he ends up getting meteor'd to death, or something. I think the duel takes place in a desert. I tried looking up Australian yugioh characters but I don't think Crockodile died.

Unban ariseheart

>>531693737
That sounds like season 3 of GX.

>>531693737
It has to be Crocodile in S3 GX.

>>531692393
I don't give a shit about imaginary formats. I am just happy that Konami is finally shutting down the retirement homes and sticking it to the faggots that hate ygo but haven't got the guts to walk.

>>531692393
I don't. But I'm still gonna laugh at people flipping out about this.

Nothing is stopping them from being able to play the old way. They're just whining about not getting official tournament support.

>>531694872
>playing an older format means you dont like the game
wat

>>531694495
>>531694631
Thanks. I guess I was being retarded looking it up, I don't know what was confusing me. I was trying to be a bit cautious when googling to avoid spoilers for a show I hadn't seen.

Guess I'll watch GX to relive that, since when I saw it as a kid it burned into my brain so deeply I remember it clearly literally like 20 years later (jesus) so it must have been peak.

>>531694967
He must be a tourneyfag.

>>531695181
Just remember they never dubbed the last season so it ends on the S3 cliffhanger.

>>531695260
I may have watched it dubbed as a retarded 12 year old but I surely will not watch it dubbed as a wise weeb adult. That's funny though. Get fucked, youth.

I want to try a new shitdeck.
What does Performage look like nowadays?

>>531696448
Loses to Generaiders. It's like half a deck rn without anything actually good to end on.

>>531694134
no, unless you're willing to take all the OCG main deck hits with it

>>531675772
Doom-Z and MST have a lot of potential but Regenesis's support has made me skeptical. Other than that the only thing I'm looking forward to is JUHU
>>531676004
If it's meant to help at all. Luna's deck ended up being a nothingburger

>>531706430
>DMG to be a material for Destruction whilst also providing a Spell that also provides discard fodder for Dragoon
neat
Though I wouldn't exactly describe it as "Shining Sarc" when the focus point is accessing Dragoon, a card from a different archetype

>Fucking Aizen’s VA for this nigger

>>531706602
You should
Shining Sarc DM already searches DM backrow
It’s always intended for Sarc to use DM cards

>>531708090
Isn't he also that Despia guy with long nails?

>>531708197
Except they aren't using Shining Sarc DM, they are using DMG as a generic DARK Spellcaster access point that nets another card in hand and activates the condition of Dark Magician of Destruction.
This is just an engine with a Shining Sarc skin, not exactly an actual Shining Sarc deck. It shouldn't get equal billing. If they used Diabellstar to get Deception of the Sinful Spoils to net the same endboard, I wouldn't go around calling it Diabell Sinful Spoils Azamina Dracotail. It is Dracotail with a Dragoon turbo engine

>>531708423
Still baffled that the ARC-V manga didn't give out a Fusion Pendulum to Frightfurs.
Honestly the fact we have a grand sum total of 30 ED Pendulums across 10 years is pitiful considering how much of a slam dunk concept it is.

Remembering when Clear World didn't get any follow up support after AC

>>531708650
>pendulum fusion
I remember the diaperfag mentioning some fusionist pendulum

>>531709702
The worst part is it still has stuff unprinted

>>531709973
There's a Fluffal Fusionist but its just a Fluffal with a Scale effect to fuse.
There's also Frightfur Bone Diver and Frightfur Claw Pirate, but those are all Main Deck stuff too
I would've thought Nightmary would've been a Pendulum due to being the ultimate boss of the Pendulum-focused Frightfur manga deck but nah.

>>531710905
>Targeted negate

When was this printed? 2007?

The Artmage Story

Artmage, the Academy City State that prospered through the power of Nerva the Power Patron of Creation, was raided by some mysterious group. In order to protect his friends from this group, Medius gains the power of Nerva and transforms into Diactorus.

The ones that raided Artmage where the Special Assault Squadron “Doom-Z”: The pride of the armed nation “D.O.O.M.D.U.R.G.”.

The Power Patron Machine Doom-Z, introduced to this era by Jupiter the Power Patron of Destruction, seeks for a champion of the battlefield, then transforms into the “Doom-Z System” in order to grant it even further power.
D.O.O.M.D.U.R.G. succeeded in the mass production of Power Patron Machine Doom-Zs, although they were incomplete. These mass-produced, incomplete models wield red lightning, unlike the green from the original model.

“Medius” evolves through the power of the “Power Patron of Destruction“!!

In a desperate situation, held at gunpoint by Drastrius, Graflare rushes in to protect his friends. In his hand, he holds one of the mass-produced Doom-Z System machines, which only the Doom-Zs should have.
The two Dragonewts confront each other. At that moment, what appeared in Medius’ “eye” was an image of Graflare being consumed by the power of the System, going berserk.

—-
TL note: “Dragonewt” is common Japanese fantasy parlance for “a human with partial dragon ancestry”.

>>531676004
98% positive it's going to be Rose Dragon support masquerading as "Plant Synchro".

Konami should make more Super Poly targets

>>531717379
good. they are not rushing it that much

>inb4 the short will end where Ecclesia named the boy Albaz
To be honest that would be a good point to end but it would mean screwing over Swordsoul, Icejade, Therion, Spright, Despia and Bystial in terms of main set support

>>531722821
Despia and Bystial don't need the support, arguable if Swordsoul does considering the last Tenyi wave was made for it. The only decks that really need it is Icejade and Therion and they're probably treated as jokes by the team so you can probably guess they never intended to give these any real attention

>>531723229
>Bystial don't need the support,
I disagree, the concept of a bystial deck has been a complete failure. People just use them as D.D. crows with upside or as a synchro engine (which now is hit in order to sell new product).

>>531722821
>>531723229
I'M LORE TOO OKAY, WHERE'S MY SUPPORT

>>531723656
Nigga, Springans appeared right after Tri-Brigade

I was about to make a malice deck on edopri and then add three copy of crossout designator and one copy of lancea so I don't have to deal with bullshittery that tries to break my ascent but then I completly forgot crossout was limited to 1
>mfw
and I KNOW OH YES I KNOW that konami will never free desigantor

>>531723229
>Despia and Bystial don't need the support
they got skills in duel links and are non-meta, that guarantees support

>>531723794
You deserve to be impaled by Lancea.

>>531723229
I hate how much of a "nothing" deck Icejade feel like. It's like they wanted it to be generic WATER support, then some weird control gimmick, and then finally a Synchro deck.

>>531724084
I love how Icejades trigger when targeted but then then none of the effects help playing through imperm and veiler.

>>531723794
It's the current meta on Master Duel.

Decks for this feel?

>>531726287
yeah I know but I don't play md, but thanks

>>531724084
icejade's schizophrenic effects and gimmicks are exactly the reason why i like the deck so much
most modern decks are way too streamlined, it can get boring to have every card do or achieve the same thing
if only it was a little better

>>531723978
This.

hosting

It's weird to think every new Icejade wave introduced a random new gimmick and almost all of them riffed on Marincess schizophrenically adding a new gimmick like banishment and equips for each one of their waves

>>531724084
It's one of those decks you just know had 3 or 4 people working on it but they never sat down and decided where they wanted the deck to go so you get schizo garbage gimmicks
>Generic water support wannabe skill drain turbo synchro deck
There's no way 1 person thought this up and thought it was gonna be fine

>>531726873
Generic searchable endboards are the problem. If they at least limited decks' search power and gas, they would have to make decisions on what to summon instead of just summoning everything.

>>531727342
I want whatever schizo made Aegirine to keep making cards. It's some genuinely interesting design that doesn't get replicated right anywhere else
>Mass protection, but on a Quick Effect

>>531675343 (OP)
Idea: Shitdecks, but instead of tourneys we make a tierlist.
Shitdecks are gonna have a huge range of powerlevels, so why not match up decks from the same tiers up against each other.

hosting eu casual

>>531727489
yeah, icejade having like 6 gimmicks rolled up in one deck means you can really use 2-3 at a time at least in the first turn or so
makes the deck weak but very interesting to play

>>531727850
Suffering from Red-Eyes syndrome means you can't really know who made it even
>Hey this card is kinda good we should make more of it
>We had like 800 people working on that archetype so good luck finding who came up with that
Also I just noticed but Icejade is a cousin to the DBP trap control waifu archetype trope the designers love doing

>>531727489
Generic searchable endboards aren't even the problem, its that those endboards have way to high stats.
It causes the eternal problem that you can't just remove the problem cards, because the problem cards are too strong, so you need to use effects to get enough stats on board to remove it.
But needing to use effects to get rid of the things that stop you using effects is the exact problem.
There is legit 0 balancing attempted within Konami. In an ideal world, generic powerful endboard pieces would have to give something up to have that power, likely stats. It would enable them to retain their strength whilst not be overwhelming and require the player to provide additional support for them to make sure they remain on field.
Instead Konami can and will put as high stats as possible, give them targeting and destruction protection, 5 other effects and add it all into a nice compact generic engine with no locks, then suddenly get surprised when it appears everywhere and they have to hit it.

>>531728410
icejade isn't a trap deck though
its playstyle is extremely schizophrenic, i'd hardly say it's a control deck since the only 2 actual interruptions are the cont. negate and the synchro, then it has curse as a floodgate and that's it
it's like a midrange deck that tries to be good at going second but it's also extremely reactive instead of proactive like most second decks are, really weird deck

I hereby curse the Aki support to have some of the most punishing locks known to this game
>But why?
Hate plantslop. Simple as.

>>531729379
aki support is likely closer to dragon than to plant

>>531729379
She's dragon slop.

>>531729379
Aki's deck is Dragon/Plant/Fairy/Spellcaster slop, you don't have to worry about it supporting Plant Link.

>5ds re-airing coincides with lots of 5ds support
i wonder if they knew it'd do so well

>>531727850
It's really funny how Swordsoul Longyuan can easily make it considering their relationship

>>531730572
i think it's on purpose thematically, like
>you are the reason i ended up like this

>>531729379
>You cannot Summon monsters the turn you activate this effect, except "Rose" monsters.

>>531731102
today i learned that kozmoll wickedwitch is part of the "rose" archetype for some reason

>>531730980
Lewd

With the amount of Turn 0 play, Konami should unironically unban Azathot with an errata
>After this card was Xyz Summoned DURING YOUR TURN, your opponent cannot activate monster effects for the rest of that turn.
I know what you are thinking
>but does that stop handtraps too
Yes, but blame turn 0 for requiring something like this

>>531731384
how's that lewd

>>531731381
The "Swallow's" cards are funnier.

>>531731381
Because Wicked WItch of the East is NessaROSE Thropp. Each OCG name is a fucky version of their actual name
>Goodwitch = Glindol (Glinda the Good)
>Dark Lady = Elphaiber (Elphaba)
>Farmgirl = Dorothel (Dorothy)
>Wickedwitch = Dark Rose (Nessarose)
Even Kozmotown is "Kozmo - Emeraldopolis"
TCG seems unironically scared to actually reference anything, whereas the OCG really don't give a shit

>>531731381
>Wickedwitch is a psychic psycho just like Aki

Swordsoul in Chronicles, please

Need more cards with implied capabilities of turning women into disgusting mindless monsters, like Jawzer and Chakra.

>Only had 4 onscreen duels, one of them was using her brother's deck which means she only had three duels of displaying her own cards.
For a main cast member, this is a really low amount of duels and people complain about Aki getting benchwarmed.

>>531735664
Jawzer?

>>531735664
>Chakra never got a retrain
Horseshit mate

>>531733556
All women are obsessed monsters hellbent on vengeance for things that typically did not happen.

>>531735918

It probably doesn't help that both Psalms and Purge are shit

why did they make ahashima so much worse than verte, halq, and electrumite?

>>531733543
dragon tail because konami hate them because they're too good for them to make them more powerful because theyre sons of bitch

>>531735664
lore decks strangely have a good amount of this (azaminas, tetrogre)

You know it's funny to think that the OCG metagame was Dracotail as the best deck above Yummy with one big play being Altharion recycle Maxx C every turn and we'll never know if Dracotail would have been able to translate here without it because DUAD released here before JUHU and VSK9 fucking dumpsters Dracotail like nobody's business

>>531675343 (OP)
Any ideas on how to thin this deck a bit while keeping the identity? I wanna mix Exodia wincon so drawing / scooping power + Obliterate floodgates are there, but I also want to make good use of all those cards to punch with Slifer, so there's Tribute fodder.
Destinies are there as Allure Fodder and a valid target for Future Fusion, also they could be tribute fodder or summon Plasma if I haven't drawn Slifer. And Dragoon is just the safest play.

I like all the branches and it does thin the deck quite quickly but it could be better.
This is for fighting a Sky Striker novice learning the game so it doesn't have to be TOO powerful, but I still want some consistency...

>>531758734
This is an example of an optimal board I think but it took 11 turns against the AI

>>531758734
Exodia decks (focused on the Exodia wincon) come in two forms, deep draw or stall. Neither of those is looking to attack or summon monsters for that matter. All they care about is getting all 5 pieces to hand as quicky as possible. My advice would be to drop Slifer and focus on lost of floodgates or draw spells. If you want to play a deck focused on Slifer then you should build around him using the Divine Beast support. Your deck as is an old decrepit mess that will get you laughed out of a local.

I like 5D's.

>>531758734
>>531758932
Playground yugioh lives on. Beautiful.

>>531761014
It was the most fun 2 months of dueling I've had n a long time, but just recently some dudes at the local took a look at how the Sky Striker new girl was playing and started giving her advice on how to use it.
I'm sure we were the people having the most fun summoning 1, attacking, setting 1 or 2 and passing (she didn't know you can quick effect Raye during the battle phase, or how you're not meant to sit on one link forever and should be linking them away for various effects), but now that she learned some little combos she can destroy the fun decks I was playing, SS can basically search whatever spell or monster they need once per turn to just get rid of my most troublesome card.
But maybe a little floodgate can hold her back and let me hit back without going Meta, I don't wanna add handtraps and just negate everything. Not yet.

>>531753747

>>531746317
How good we had it when revolt was the biggest of our problems

>>531764384
Remember when he tried jumping ship from YGO and going hard on Elestrials but no one gave a shit about Elestrials so he came crawling back to get views?

About 3 years later and the powercreeep got to places we didn't think possible back then.

>revenge just breeds more revenge

>>531766981
I don't know why he thought he could escape being a yugituber, especially with a nothing game like Elestrals.

>>531767162
He got stuck in an echo chamber with people apparently supporting him in their circlejerk but then they instantly ignored him once he actually tried to take the leap.
He's stuck in this shithole regardless of if he likes it or not.

>>531769906
I literally posted one of my decklists going undefeated there here the other day

My hope for the Aki cards-
Rose Dragon's taken into consideration for the support, but I want the actual plant portion of her deck to get the spotlight this time. We've had the rose witch (humanoid-esque) portion get its support wave a while ago, then Rose Dragons themselves, let's now support the actual plant monsters specifically, of which she had many.
I'd be happy with a bunch of retrains of old and iconic plant monsters she used.
Give me those Dark Verger/Phoenixian/Wall of Ivy/Evil Thorn/Lonefire Blossom/Revival Rose/Thorn of Malice type of aesthetic.

Fuck I hope she gets a good number of cards.
7 is not too much to ask for, right? RIGHT?

>forced drama general

>>531771016
Its british hours, after all

>>531771016
Welcome to /vg/.

>>531771013
Lunalights got 5 new cards. That's probably what you should expect. I don't know if they've ever given more than 5 on those streams.

diapercord acting uppity again

>>531771013
Lunalight, Gimmick Puppet, TG, and all other anime decks on the streams got 5.

>>531771013
Majestic Rose Dragon

>>531771013
Can her deck even be fixed and made to be good?

>>531675479
That's one hell of a drawback, but it's manageable if you use another Dominus card first. Still the attribute resurrections of 2 Dominus cards in one game would stop you from running it in a lot of decks.

>>531771797
Konami can make any deck "good" if they wanted.

>>531771013
>Give me those Dark Verger
Dark Verger Verga EARTH Plant 0/1000 level 2
This card starts the game in the GY. You can only have 1 "Dark Verger Verga" in the GY this way. Cannot be used a Synchro or Link material, except for the summon of a Plant-type or Dragon-type monster(s). If a Plant-Type Tuner monster is Normal or Special Summoned to your side of the field: You can Special Summon this card from your hand or GY in Attack Position.

Unban Glow-Up Bulb

>>531771797
Anything can be fixed and can be given custom cards to get around whatever issues they have. Konami just needs to feel like it.

Doesn't Akiza have a good chance of not only getting this support wave but also getting another one right afterwards?
Isn't Yusei and 2 other Signers getting support waves in that product which I can't remember the name of?
I wonder how likely it is that Akiza could sneak into being one of those 2 we don't know of yet.

God I'm getting too excited, they wouldn't give her 2 support waves in a row, would they?
Holy shit that would be amazing.

so whats up with son and maze being obsessed with the diaper shit for like 3 years now?

>>531773216
Do not try to understand diaperfags.

>>531773216
They think they can gaslight people about it.

Meanwhile, no one will actually forget about what they just did April Fools this year.

>>531773131
>God I'm getting too excited
Your wetness will only hydratate the plants more
stop now before they'll grow too powerful

>>531773131
Legendary 5Ds Deck and yeah theoretically she could be one to get support. Yusei got a SD and he's getting support in that product too so it might happen.

>>531773131
>Doesn't Akiza have a good chance of not only getting this support wave but also getting another one right afterwards?
You the new Legendary Decks right? Nothing confirmed but there is a very good chance since Legendary Dragon and HERO decks had new cards back then.

god this board fucking sucks

>>531773216
they must coping with rape or something, either way don't bother with then

>>531773131

Just a reminder that this was 7 years ago. They really did just shelve this product line for ages and brought it back out of the blue.

>>531773748
Another anon brought it up a while back, but the product page mentions chibi Tokens. The only 5D's characters that have Duel Arena art to use are Yusei, Jack and Akiza.

>>531774323
Please be true please be true please be true

>>531771576
>Gimmick Puppet, TG

>crow support
letfs fucking BLACKWINGOOO

>>531773485
the problem is that over here jimblo is real, he's just the british

>>531774323
Based.
Hopefully this is what happens. 8 new cards for each signer chosen is fucking HUGE and those 3 are who I'd pick if I had the choice.

>>531774397
I wouldn't get too excited. Watch a new Aki card just be Majestic Rose Dragon

I will laugh if the cards suck.

>>531775097
The other two are probably only gonna get one at most, if at all. They're just using this to import the new Junk SD which is why Yusei is getting so many.

>>531775392
Are you sure? That seems very disingenuous to advertise 8 new cards and for them to just be the SD ones.

I normal summon Wattgiraffe

>>531775560
are you braindead? it's the same thing they always do

>>531775305
I won't because I expect them to.

Do you have a webm of Yuma losing to Mirror Force in episode 44 of Zexal?

Judge, I will proceed to activate an infinite loop that will last till we go into time, now I will win with cowboy for game

>>531772635
Yes, daily reminder some guy a year before had posted a custom red eyes metal card that allowed you to activate Metalmorph traps the turn they were set, people in the comments were
>they'd never do that
>that's why fans shouldn't design cards
>if Konami wanted that effect to exist it would have been printed in one of the cards already
Lo and behold 10 months later Konami released red eyes metal claws doing exactly that to fix the archetype

Or all the other times they randomly change an archetypes playstyle by printing new cards with stuff you'd have never imagined, blue eyes went from Yolo beatdown to "set stone and pass" synchro in 2016 to turbometa in 2025 with one-card starters not running any of the old stone, "with eyes of blue", guitarman or spells from before. Konami can make stuff up on the spot and outright print cards to fix old cards for example
>If this card is in the Graveyard, you can special summon the same turn you use Red-Eyes Fusion
Or
>If Tablet of Legend (or whatever the DM cards is called) leaves the field, your opponent's monsters are destroyed instead of your own

>>531775560
>to advertise 8 new cards

>>531776271
you can't do an infinite loop that doesn't advance the gamestate, fool

>>531776296
blue-eyes is excusable due to duel links

>>531775930
Some idiots on this general claiming the White Forest and Branded decks kicking my ass at "casual" locals weren't Meta, and here they have more rep than Primite Blue Eyes

You guys don't know a thing

>>531775745
The Agents SDR, that the TCG skipped and added to a pack

>>531776801
>anon that actually plays
>versus /dng/ - unplayer central
i mean

>>531775930
>Sky Striker and Lunalight have more representation than Dracotail
DOOD support better be clutch

>>531776645
The gamestate is advanting, I told you I'm doing the loop till we get into time, that's a change in the gamestate is it not?

>>531776801
unless you're a jap this chart is irrelevant to your situation

>>531775930
Why did they kill Ryzeal but not Maliss?

>>531777186
Doing the same thing over and over to no meaningful change does not advance the game state, and is recognized as stalling. Which results in a match loss.

>>531777186
Each loop has to advance the gamestate, you can't repeat a loop without advancing the gamestate.
It's pretty easy to get around this by just involving a burn or lifegain effect somewhere in the loop before you repeat it, or you can play out the loop if it isn't actually a guaranteed loop and it's only a 95% or so percent chance of actually succeeding like some old "infinite" loops like the Gishki loop were.

>>531777291
Because Ryzeal clearly the better deck.

>>531777291
waifu privilege
if ryzeals were cute anime girls they'd still be alive

>>531775930
Liger thighs uoooh

>>531776801
They're correct, Primite Blue-Eyes isn't meta either.

>>531777883
That's absurd, it was incredibly powerful when it released less than 5 months ago. I hate it here. My deck doesn't even have Primite yet, it's too expensive. You're telling me once it gets reprinted as Super / Common cards it won't be able to compete, that's scummy

>>531778016
Ignore the retard, he probably doesn't play outside of imaginary format on sims.

>>531778016
If you just want to play it at locals its fine but don't expect to be beating tier 1 or tier 0 decks consistently.

>>531778016
If it's not Mitsu or Maliss its irrelevant.

>>531778137
Shut up Maze. Put the trip back.

>>531778563
Isn't Maliss the weakest archetype to prep time ever? All they do is banish, we have Lancea, Chaos Hunter and Imperial Iron Wall

TCG meta

>>531777291
Remember how OCG leave Tearlaments alive for an entire year?

>>531778604
Not maze or son. Just saying that claiming Blue-Eyes or White Forest aren't meta is probably wrong

>>531778924
>Mitsu + Maliss + Ryzeal is 75% of top decks
this format fucking sucks

>>531778936
Thank god TCG didn't avoid hitting decks this year after last year letting Snake-Eye just run rampant all year. Its actually learning.

>>531778924
but /dng/ said blue-eyes, white forest, and branded are meta?????
why can they not even get 3% and why is branded/despia at 0.54%????????

>>531779103
But what do you actually see at your locals?

>>531779452
Mitsu, Maliss, and Ryzeal at the regular tables, but I play goat format at locals nowadays so I see chaos and warrior toolbox instead.

>>531779345
Blue-Eyes and White Forest were in the tops at the NA Nats

>>531775930
>Grass HERO
What?

>>531779686
1/64 at a single nationals doesn't make it meta

>>531778604
Why would Maze care? Maze doesnt play the game.

>>531779686
despite making a 5% of the population...

>>531779824
they really want to mill malicious

>>531780117
*mills all three malicious*
Alright, now what

>>531779686
Blue-Eyes is not meta. who keeps saying otherwise?

>>531775930
dracotailbros, what happened... the yummychads and K9gods are laughing at us... we were supposed to be the top dog...

erm acktually it got top 128 at YCS Chernobyl so its meta

>>531779679
I go to two different, and Ryzeal has pretty much vanished at them save for one hold out. Other than that, Mitsu is common at one while only one at the other. Blue-Eyes is super common at one.

Honestly, compared to last year, its a lot easier to get by with rogue stuff, barring some unfortunate "It goes first uninterrupted, there's nothing you can do" in some. Been playing with Evil Twin Fiendsmith, Dragonmaids and now Super Quant lately. A lot more bearable than last year.

Konami won. They are alchemists. They have transmuted data to gold. They have transmuted carboard to gold. They are selling things which cost them practically nothing and it's made them billions.
They will never stop, and they cannot lose. It simply is not possible.

>>531786742
>MD is without question killing the TCG
TCG is killing the TCG, MD just becomes the path of least resistance. It used to be MD didn't exist and therefore TCG was killing the TCG but they had a captive audience who either had to give up Yugioh's unique gameplay or continue forking over hundreds upon hundreds of dollars each year just to keep up with the horrible business practices.
Not to mention ease of access to gameplay. If I want to play the TCG, I have to wait until the weekend for my locals to host an event, travel all the way out there, sit down and get handtrapped to death 4-5 matches in a row before leaving.
Meanwhile in MD, you can queue up upwards of 10 or so games in the time it takes a single round to pass in TCG play

a good analogy for that would be that TCG is like Paintball and MD/DL/Edopro are like FPS

>>531789957
I mean you can say that about a lot of creators but MBT literally did attempt to make an alt format centered around set rotation. He fucked it up badly (letting Salamangreat exist in the evergreen set despite being massively powerful compared to everything else) but he did at least try

>>531790143
>He fucked it up badly
Because he's retarded and set rotation is and always was a dumb idea.

Hasn't he stopped mentioning it as much because he realized first hand how it doesn't fix anything?

>>531784098
Edison and GOAT don't cover nearly enough, there should be way more eras.
For example if you want to play Inzektor, Nekroz, or early Zexal with Utopia and Galaxy-Eyes you're freaking out of luck because those go way beyond Edison but not nearly strong enough for current game (maybe they are with the latest techs, but aren't how the game was played back in 2013).
Swinging with Neo-Galaxy Eyes for game negating the enemy cards and attacking multiple times like a hydra was my dream as a kid and I never managed to, now he has no place in the game probably.

Print more guardian cards.

>>531790336
They are not pretending, they are genuinely that clueless

Sometimes i wonder if this is just ''my locals stopped supporting YGO, millions must die'' shitass logic or if people just want to look at things to get mad of.

>>531790461
I could see him as one of the potential characters to get support in the TCG side sets, like the Gate Guardian brothers and Odion.

>>531790371
He stopped mentioning it because he completely fumbled the bag (and also encounters the problem with a fan-made set rotation format where the card strength is harder to keep restrained when more and more possible choices already went through non-set-rotation powercreep).
Set Rotation would absolutely rein in the sheer levels of powercreep by not requiring each deck to beat everything before it wholly and absolutely. Problem is, Konami will be retards and just powercreep everything as per usual which makes the exercise pointless.
VS didn't get a Turn 0 card because Konami thought that would be neat for them to have, it got that because the prevailing powercreep demands that gameplay (or a massive retardedly strong power boost).

>>531790336
if simulators couldn't kill Duel Links, what makes you think they could kill Master Duel?
If MD dies, it will be due to the devs retardness
edopro is clearly not the experience their userbase cares about. it is not a threat

>>531790143
nobody but Rogue Hero is calling for set rotation because it's a retarded idea that runs contrary to the spirit of Yugioh

what people want is to be able to play "midcore Yugioh" where obvious high tier "meta decks" are banned in such a way that everyone can agree upon

it'd take nothing for jacob and paul to organize a council that puts out an edict saying "There's a Yugioh format you can player for this format where everything but Ryzeal, Maliss, and Mitsurugi cards are allowed". But we're coming on a year of the problem being discussed and they have done nothing but bemoan how Konami isn't doing it. It's so simple and they themselves have the pull but are convinced this is out of their hands.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xD6U668um7E

>>531790740
No, I think MBT just hates YGO and resents he's "trapped" as a yugituber now.

Like many before him, he has to keep doing something he hates for content because an audience won't follow him to anything else and it makes him hate it. And he's not an actually good player so he can't really do anything with the TCG.

>>531790624
point is that literally doesn't matter because the point here is for duelingbook and other simulators to intentionally not be popular lest their existence be threatened because Konami feels threatened

>boxes cratering in price a week after release is totally normal

Set rotation would fix nothing because rotating a set does not actually stop them from doing power creep. Every argument for set rotation pretends their idealized version of it will happen and not the reality.

I want to play GX, which would essentially be Gladiator Format, but it's got to have a selling-point when it could be portrayed as Edison with a worse card base and no real deck variety

Even Edison has left GOAT in the dust because the perception is that Chaos Turbo and Chaos Warrior are several times more prevalent and ubiquitous than Blackwing and Vayu Turbo; nobody wants to see the same old shit most times they play.

>>531790991
>There's a Yugioh format you can player for this format where everything but Ryzeal, Maliss, and Mitsurugi cards are allowed
That removes the current meta, but what about the next layer? And the next? And the next? This game is built upon layers of shit and shaving the top of is a good feeling temporarily but quickly becomes just as stale as it was before as different, just as cancer meta-wise, decks take their spots.
It's the same as any event in Master Duel, neat ideas at the start but then you face the same decks over and over again and it gets boring.

>>531791126
The problem is that he's stuck as a CARD GAME youtuber. Allow me to remind you that Rata's most watched video right now is not a fucking YGO video, it's a [pretty well made] review for fucking Ultrakill that gave him an audience that has fuckall to do with YGO but liked Rata's video format enough.

MBT isn't trapped as a yugituber, he's trapped as a mediocre slop-making faggot without talent.

It ultimately makes any suggest in any way pointless because Konami will just fuck everything up again.
Increase the starting LP? Get ready for 6000 ATK ED monsters that negate, pop cards and multi-attack.
Harsh limitation on gameplay? Get ready for "the card that does one billion things sequentially so its actually "1" effect".
Adding a damage cap per turn? Get ready for the decks that just happen to burn up to the cap turn 1, so they can kill turn 3.

etc.

Where we play with only mechanics up to that series but with a banlist that allows for new cards but reigned in. Some things will need to be hit because they are too strong, like Voiceless for example might be too strong for a format with just Fusion and Rituals and would need restrictions. Arc-V could also play Pendulums with no Links.

>>531791540
>That removes the current meta, but what about the next layer? And the next? And the next?
You tell me? You don't know. Your assumption is that there would just be another Tier 0 or Tier 1 deck to fill the vacuum but you do not actually know that. Look at Edison; that currently has well over 5 decks that could conceivably win tournaments right now. Your mindset is horrifically outdated and disproven.

>>531791837
It's Yugioh Speed Duel.

Master Duel is garbage.
Doesn't matter how big or how popular it gets, this will always be true.

>>531792303
I don't quite follow what you're proposing. And community run banlists are typically offensive additionally. Modified Goat for example is a flop. Nobody wants to be beholden to smogonfaggots who tell you what is and isn't fair.

>jew may be posting right here right now
ew

>>531792472
The only reason a hypothetical "no Ryzeal, no Maliss, no Mitsurugi" list would even remotely be different to the prior format is that Konami double-tapped Snake-Eyes and Tenpai to ensure that Ryzeal and Maliss would thrive. Without that, the strongest decks of the format just become the strongest decks before.
And when the next batch of decks come out, will we suddenly be fine playing Ryzeal, Maliss and Mitsurugi format we previously banned outright because they aren't as bad as the newer stuff?

>>531790740
>Sometimes i wonder if this is just ''my locals stopped supporting YGO, millions must die'' shitass logic
Pretty much

>>531792815
Yes, you just continue using the main format's banlist.
Do you not understand that the entire point of the proposed format is to hit the proven current best decks in the main format so that every other conceivable deck can compete amongst each other without the oppression? There is no catch, there is no gotcha, this is a simple and unproblematic premise.

>>531791521
whats the implication?

Fuck off with all your shitty rotation ideas.
If we segregate old archetypes to the era they came out in then Konami will stop making new support for them, which I do not want to happen.
No form of rotation is needed.
If you want to play meta Yugioh you play the newer decks which eventually get phased out until they get support again years down the line.

This system works fine, what doesn't work fine are things related to game mechanics and rules regarding the games themselves aka things like the dice roll for going first, dying in 1 turn if you brick or get handtrapped/charmied, life points being too low and outdated for the current power of the game, side deck being cancer filled with silver bullets that needs to be done away with, bo3 being trash, time rules sucking.

>>531793191
>can compete amongst each other without the oppression
Except the core problem with the format concept is that the oppression is replaced with prior oppression.
VSK9, Yummy and Dracotail get removed.
Now Maliss, Ryzeal and Mitsurugi take their place. You just entered the prior format, the format that people ALREADY deemed problematic enough to require a format to ban out those decks.
It's just nostalgiabaiting for a format from a few weeks-months ago

Support soon.

>>531792794
Community run banlists are stupid. People just amount to "Hit what beats me" 110% of the time.
I mean something organized by Konami or people not beheld to the whims of the mob.

The thing that makes time travel or wizard and such boring to me is eventually, they get stale. Things stagnate when stuff can't be added or taken away and eventually they will just become solved. Take the retard above, talking about there being 5 decks for Edison now. Because once upon a time Edison was sold as a format with so many different decks. But now time has gone by and things got solved and reduced the viability of others.

>>531793498
dude you already admitted konami nerfs top dogs to a reasonable level going into a new format; you are being a schizo contrarian for inertia and the status quo even though you're well aware it would play out differently

>>531793498
Except the thing you are ignoring is that there are other new cards now and previous decks have been hit. You won't go back to previous format because Tenpai and SE are hit and things like Lunalight or Super Quant are around, or there are other decks that are viable beyond the top ones.

>>531793669
retard? nigga you're the one who doesn't know fuck all about the format
there are dozens of playable edison decks and an entire popular channel dedicated to that premise
hopefully one day you grow up and stop talking out of your fucking ass

>>531793669
People running vayu turbo for RBETs because it has a 5% higher chance of winning than something else is irrelevant unless you're competing at the absolute top level. There will always be a best deck but you can top with a bunch of different decks.

>>531775984
Unfortunately, I don't have any Zexal episodes with me. I only have GX completed and working on 5D's (about to clip episode 51 later). Sorry.

>>531793379
>This system works fine
It doesn't though. It's a constant stream of endless powercreep.
The reason why die rolls are so important is because decks have been normalized to be so strong that letting them play unopposed just shut down the opponent, because meta-intended cards for the current format need to outright beat the stuff from the prior one.
The handtraps exist because going first is outrageously unfair.
The LP being so low is only relative to the heavy powercreep in accessing powerful stats, paired with endboard pieces going first.
The silver bullets need to exist because powercreep has resulted in powerful going first decks getting shut down by handtraps so they need to pivot to dodge or tank several handtraps so the only way to counteract them is to shut down their core gimmick.
Time rules suck ass because as a result of powercreep, combo decks have to spend a lot of time developing their board for several minutes to access all the shit they need to. This makes going first and in some cases going second take a huge chunk of time.
This all stems from this constant stream of powercreep firing on all cylinders, this stream which is unopposed by any system currently in place by Konami. Konami needs some form of restraint to prevent further powercreep or just generally rein in the game's speed, power and gameplay so that all of the above isn't just endlessly spiraling.

I love how Japan has YouTube channels dedicated to compiling forum shitposts.

Playing into VSK9 is a bitch

Just make a format where any deck that's topped consistently is banned. It is that simple.
Stretch it back to the start of MR4 in terms of tourney results because for the most part anything before that has been powercrept into the ground. D.rulers being the most perfect example here.

>>531794336
Powercreep is inevitable and isn't an issue in games that update their rulings to account for the changes that powercreep brings with it.
All of those things can be fixed with simple rule changes to update the game.
>B-but that's crazy!
It isn't, we're in MR5 now, we've had these changes many times in the past, it's time for a new one which addresses those problems directly, all of which have had multiple valid suggestions on how they can easily be resolved all without any shitty rotation garbage being necessary.

>>531794702
What changes would you implement to resolve the issues you've given?

>>531794497
>Just make a format where any deck that's topped consistently is banned. It is that simple.
Like AMC?

>>531794702
Its inevitable but its controllable.
Powercreep should be 1-2-3-4-5.
Konami enjoys making powercreep like 1-3-6-14-19.

>>531794834
we can start by implementing a chessclock
shared time is bullshit

>Just make a format where any deck that's topped consistently is banned. It is that simple.
thank god these mentally retarded thirdies dont actually have the power to affect anything

>>531794878
AMC has too many spite bans and "pre" bans where people would ban cards that countered decks that they planned on playing in future AMCs.

>>531793669
>5 decks
BW, Vayu, Glads, Heros, Frog variants, Machina variants, Lightsworn variants, Zombie variants, Dragons, Amaryllis, Quickdraw, Fairies, gigavise, there's all sorts of shifts going on. Edison is nowhere near solved, unless you're a braindead shitter unplayer

>>531793669
> Take the retard above, talking about there being 5 decks for Edison now. Because once upon a time Edison was sold as a format with so many different decks. But now time has gone by and things got solved and reduced the viability of others.
Sphere of Chaos just topped the latest RBET and you're saying this.

>>531795172
like >>531795141 said he's an obvious unplayer

>>531794834
NTA, but I'd add a new section to the banlist where decks can only use a single copy of one card in the section. Putting a new restriction on deck building would be good.

Decks for this feel?

>>531794834
Remove the side deck completely
Bo2, both players get to choose their turn order in 1 of those games so both get their ideal turns, no more coinflips determining the victor.
Implement some form of safeguard against just instantly losing if you brick and have to pass turn of get handtrappped and don't have any follow up or mulcharmied and don't want to give your opponent a billion draws which is basically an otk anyway. Either put a cap on the number of damage you can inflict in 1 turn in the first few turns of the duel or half damage from direct attacks or something.
Time rules will be solved by this too since you'll be playing 2 games instead of potentially 3 and no side deck means even less wasted time.

Downsides of this?
>Muh tournaments will have more matches end in a draw (literal nothing burger btw)

>>531795092
Chess clock is already a dogshit choice. The reason chess clocks work in chess is each action isn't checking for a response before, during, and after each move. You have definitive YOUR TURN and MY TURN which each pulls from.
But like, my very first turn starts
>Draw Phase
>start of Standby Phase SLAP
>SLAP
>Standby Phase SLAP
>SLAP
>end of Standby Phase SLAP
>SLAP
>start of Main Phase 1 SLAP
>SLAP
>Normal Summon my monster SLAP
>SLAP
>Successfully summoned my monster, I use my trigger effect SLAP
>SLAP
>Do you have any Quick Effects? SLAP
>SLAP
>Resolve my trigger effect SLAP
>SLAP
All this for a single Normal Summon immediately done at the start of the game. Never mind doing shit to dodge Droll like chaining stuff in Draw Phase.

>>531795141
>BW, Vayu,
So Blackwings are the first and second best decks but its totally different here.

>>531796052
>i dont play the game BUT let me tell you all about it
Why do you do this?

>>531795748
Buffing stall is not the way to fix the game

>Best of 1
Coin flip determines the winner
>Best of 2
Higher skill expression, the better player will win more often than not
>Best of 3
Coin flip determines the winner

The choice is simple. Just embrace it.

>>531796352
More like
>Best of 2
>Tiebreaker score determines the winner
A vast majority of decks will be simply built for going first, will win going first and will lose going second. This results in a draw. That's fine for the starting rounds but as you start to get into top cut you are just having people draw on stream repeatedly, and the winner just arbitrarily being decided because of some RNG numbers behind the scenes.
>the better player will win more often than not
The player who opened the out will win more often than not you mean?

>>531796256
So Mitsurugi and Ryzeal Mitsurugi are totally different then

>>531796352
the correct answer is best of 5.

>>531796703
Can you tell me why you're trying to discuss a format that you don't play?

>>531796812
Can you tell me why do you shill an outdated format

>>531796812
I said I don't want to play it. Why are you arguing from a perspective like you want me to play it?

>>531796645
>The player who opened the out will win more often than not you mean?
Well, it is a card game, there's always going to be an element of luck involved but at least in that case it will come down to either just outright getting unlucky (which will always inevitably happen eventually) or a deckbuilding issue if it's happening too often.

I believe people would build their decks very differently to how they do now if all of the changes I laid out were implemented and it would affect the game in a positive way.

>>531795748
so you want to get rid of side-decking because it forces better deck-building but then you want to coddle main decks that brick; that's inconsistent

>>531797041
>this format sucks because (something that is objectively false)
>wtf are you arguing with me?

>>531796870
>Glow-Up Bulb is actually an Akiza card
It's all coming together.

>>531797072
Players will design their decks like Best of 1 decks, since they have no control over alternative game choices. They already plan (or decline to plan) for going first AND going second.
If Best of 1 causes the coin flip to determine the winner, then Best of 2 is ultimately going to result in a draw. It is fundamentally 2 Best of 1s where each player "wins" the coin flip that determines the winner.
It results in draws, draws are bad for bracketing, game feel and tournaments in general.

>>531795760
this is based you dummy
it literally eliminates time-stalling via ambiguity and punishes unpreparedness

>>531796052
they *were* considered the best decks when you knew something about the format but now are only arguably so and in contention with at least three other decks right now which don't run Blackwings at all

>>531795760
if no chain then no slap.
this wouldn't have been an issue if clocks were implemented since the beginning. clocks would have prevented a lot of shit

>>531797368
It does do that, but it also requires procedure and setup from Konami or locals to provide and operate chess clocks, as well as their replacements in a fast pace game like Yugioh.
Not to mention, imagine how crucified Konami would be in press when they implement a rule that disparages the disabled.

>>531797241
My perspective if is what I want from alt formats is to play new games, not old ones. I don't want to go back to previous times where nothing changes, I want new matches that would not happen otherwise. Hence why I want something that can evolve with new cards and banlists.

If you think I am wrong about Edison, why are you arguing like you are trying to get me to play Edison?

>>531796352
The Yugioh universe is based on Best of 1.

>>531796870
>Akiza support about to be announced
>Glow-Up Bulb posted
Yeah, I'm thinking I called it >>531772473

>>531797168
>but then you want to coddle main decks that brick
Life points were set at 8k 25 years ago when it was very difficult to put that amount of damage on board. It wasn't designed for the modern day game where every single deck can shit out multiple 3k attack boss monsters like they're nothing. 2 Bystials and a 3k attacker is instantly game on an empty board.
It has very little to do with coddling any playstyle and more to do with stopping non-games from occurring where someone does something or opens poorly, passes and then instantly scoops when they see the opponent drop a starter because they know they're getting otk'd, which every deck can do now.
It doesn't make for fun matches and the game was not initially designed to be played that way. It's played this way now because life points can't be increased due to balancing issues on certain cards, so the way around this is to limit damage in some way whilst retaining the 8k starting LP we have.

>>531797673
your complaint is that edison is solved and it's just vayu+niggerwings and we are trying to tell you that what you're saying is incorrect

>>531796352
best of 5 is the actual correct answer.
with the first three games you're both familiar with each others decks and side decks and playstyles, final 2 games are pure skill expression.

>>531796812
4chan emboldens a lot of insufferable (don't)know-it-alls who feel entitled and compelled to an opinion on anything no matter how little they know about it, especially if it initates an argument with someone that they can try to win via attrition, because misery loves company

>>531797638
I can already see the arguments over "You didn't hit it quickly enough, you missed your opportunity to respond" and "You motherfucker you had a response but didnt hit the clock so now MY time went down because you didnt hit the fucking clock".

>>531796995
Edison isn't outdated. It has better principles than most if not all 2020s Yugioh formats, which are a degeneration and flanderization.

>>531797804
You are fundamentally missing my entire point because you just see a slight at Edison by someone who said they don't want to play it.

>>531797643
do you want to try to fix yugioh or not?
ever heard of the concept of trying whatever it takes?
that edge case isn't a good argument when most players aren't so disabled; accomodations can be devised afterward

>>531798169
Ok is this your post?:
>The thing that makes time travel or wizard and such boring to me is eventually, they get stale. Things stagnate when stuff can't be added or taken away and eventually they will just become solved. Take the retard above, talking about there being 5 decks for Edison now. Because once upon a time Edison was sold as a format with so many different decks. But now time has gone by and things got solved and reduced the viability of others.
Because "things got solved and reduced the viability of others" is wrong.

>>531798059
If its not outdated, why can't I run anything past its arbitrary cut off point?

Who is the best yuginigger?

>>531796870
Can we just stop and talk about this for a minute.
Why would they post Glow-Up bulb if it wasn't alluding to an unban?
Think about it logically. They posted a picture of Glow-Up Bulb and nothing else. No text, no context, nothing, just a picture of the card art.

If you have a better reason for them posting it then I'm all ears but this sounds like the weirdest most random unban hint of all time.

>>531797885
That sounds more like twiggers if anything. Although there's a disturbing amount of overlap these days.

>>531797673
I can tell you have never actually engaged in any competitive metagame before, because you believe that a frozen pool of options automatically means stagnation and no internal development.

Nobody is trying to convince you to play, we're trying to show how you're posting false information.

>>531797913
>You didn't hit it quickly enough, you missed your opportunity to respond
that wouldn't fly
>You motherfucker you had a response but didnt hit the clock so now MY time went down because you didnt hit the fucking clock
pfff. the manga already solved that. it's the turn player that gets the clock. it stops when the opponent has a response. stalling gets you a loss regardless of whose turn it is.
5 minutes on the clock.

>>531798059
>It has better principles than most if not all 2020s Yugioh formats
Read this as:
>"My favorite decks are viable"
And it summarizes any and all alt format shilling. Not just edison

>>531797845
duels take too long for best of 5 to be logistically feasible even if it's the only truly competitive match-count

>>531798364
Could be a new version of it or card tied to it coming soon.
>>531798203
The answer is not. "Fixing Yugioh" as a topic is just an easy way to drum up thread engagement of mostly the back-and-forth argument variety.

>>531798364
People are saying time wizard but there's no fucking shot konami wants to draw attention to time wizard when they're phasing it out and getting backlash over it lol.
I just checked their feed, there's no other mention of time wizard anywhere and why would there be?
This seems completely out of whack. What a strange post especially at this time.

>>531798312
So you prove my point about being upset about your format being slighted over anything else.

Why do you want me to play Edison? Whether or not I am wrong, it is not what I want from the game.

>>531798842
Holy shit, are you esl or something? Can you not understand the posts you're responding to?

>>531797913
good, pay attention and have one hand holding your cards splayed afront your face and the other hand on the lever

>>531796870
unban? lmao, no. they will retrain it... powercreeping it in the process
and when they ban that card then they will unban glow-up

>>531798798
being able to make proper time for bo5 and then lock in for 5 games is itself a skill, the fact it's not the standard simply means the playerbase as a whole has a colossal skill issue.

>>531798329
I have some issues with all of them.

>>531798364
retrain

>>531798668
Untrue. You just don't understand game design.

>>531798935
Can you not understand anything I'm saying or are you just that blinded over a slight at your precious format? Its not that hard to move on, you do not need to get so assblasted over people not liking it.

>>531799061
this game has no formal time control outside of Master Duel; that's not a skill issue, it's a game design issue

Duelingbook doesn't even have a Pokemon Showdown style timer despite Pokemon games themselves lacking it natively; the necessity was recognized and implemented

I understand the YGO playerbase to a t. after decades of playing the game and one constant issue is that everyone is a selfish jackass, no exceptions. Seen it with herofags, seen it with blackwingfags, seen it in droves with goat players which is how that format keeps getting played and it's not like it's an issue with anime-themed decks, shaddollfags, brandedfags and skystrikerfags are a god damn loud crowd that truly encapsulates that "My favorite format is how the game should be played and anything after is brainless powercreep'' retard mentality.

I won't apologize for keeping it real when it comes to this unfixable mess of a game, and game design has never co-existed with YGO. Trash Banlists, incompetent judges, kike'd up prices and broken cards have existed across all years.
I'll give you an alternative, if you or anyone else don't like YGO, the worst thing you can do is try to like YGO by adding arbitrary rules, in this world you either like or don't like something and if you don't like something, just don't play it- You can more by not playing ygo

>>531800213
>if you or anyone else don't like YGO, the worst thing you can do is try to like YGO by adding arbitrary rules, in this world you either like or don't like something and if you don't like something, just don't play it-

>>531800213
Curious how in all of your seethe you left out Edison.

>That MBT video was posted at the same time in the MD thread on /v/
Not even the first time someone here drags MD shitposting here

>>531798431
No, I've been playing for a long time. The Synchro era is when I got into playing competitively.

The thing is, I don't really want to go back the way some do. Nothing really will change in the way I mean.
Since you want to compare, why do you think some move on to new fighting games as opposed to sticking to one?

Just play the Digimon TCG instead. Its the closest you'll get to YGO but not irredeemably degenerate

The page is up, and I'm working on the spreadsheet and banlist now.

I've been thinking about things, and I'm considering ending AMC, or at least stop hosting it. Ever since the shutdown, my drive has been much more lax, and I've totally stopped updating the deck list section of the spreadsheet. If someone else wants to take over, they are free to do so and I'll even support them, but I think I'm ready to take a break from hosting so I can work on other projects. AMC 31 will be the last thing I host for the foreseeable future.

>>531802956
>With fanfic formats you can stop giving a shit about nu product and stop consooming it.
MTG's most popular format uses the new product. So what was your point?

>>531803052
keyword is "can"
nothing compels you not to freeze a cardpool deemed suitable
and popularity isn't the end-all-be-all; if it was, then by definition nothing could or should grow

>>531803220
and the major point that dismisses what you said is 90%+ of the playerbase plays that most popular format. You're pretty much trying to go "heh house rules exist" to handwave anything.

>>531803385
True Or False: Commander was the most popular and widely played format upon inception.

figured as much. only four people consistently join at this point and of them, only 3 actually use real decks. i still definitely have a lot of fun, but i could tell it's been winding down since april. i'm gonna miss it, but i think i'd be lying if i said the prospect of banning whatever i wanted has started to lose its luster now that all the really egregious stuff has been banned. still, it was fun not having to play against shifter. or charmies. or fiendsmith.

>>531804617
I blame the shutodown more than anything. It killed our player numbers and threw off my groove. Honestly, I'm fine with 4 people, but when I sat down to make the banlist this time, it felt like a chore, and that's when I knew that the end has come.

All and all, I expected this to last 5 weeks at the most, not over 30. This has been an overwhelming success. I'll take a month or two off, and then come back with a new gimmick series. I was serious about chaos progression when I posted about it last weekend.
