Media Yu-Gi-Oh discussion

Went and played in Pittsburgh for my first ever regionals and got rocked. 3-5 overall haha. I ran Machina Gadgets and drew pretty badly for my first couple duels.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2-0 loss to Tour Guide Zombies (semi deaf guy who almost day 2'd at nats this year...tried to duality with t-king up. These guys try to push just how much of a new player you are, sheesh.)

2-1 loss to Lightsworn (topdecked JD for the win, but it was a friend I drove down with so I wasn't too salty)

2-0 loss to Gladiator Beasts (I honestly wasn't sure how to play this matchup)

2-0 win vs Elemental Heros (guy straight just shuffled my deck with my cards up so he could see them...had to 2-0 him)

2-0 win vs Dragons (felt bad for beating this guy since he drove up 2.5 hours by himself to play and didn't do too well. Hope he keeps playing though!)

2-1 loss vs Relinquished (I actually beat him when he ran relinquished but lost when he sided all 15 cards in to make a geartown/Gadjiltron Dragon deck)

2-1 loss vs Dragons (This match was the saltiest I was all day. Dude topdecks Different Dimension Reincarnation on me and brings back red eyes darkness metal dragon to bring back blue eyes and win the game. Guy carried around a toolbox for his deck...embarrassed to lose to him lol)

2-0 win vs Karakuri (9 year old kid but I wasn't going to go easy though! Finally got to pull out Chimeratech in this duel so that was fun!)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So all in all I scrubbed out pretty badly but I had a bunch of fun. :) Pulled a leviathan dragon out of the packs I got so that was pretty cool I guess...
 
so with the unwitting success I had in the tin, I decided to buy my first ever booster box today. with all the hype around, I bought a box of photon shockwave.


3rd booster pack in, I pull a zenmaines and think to myself "ok this is a pretty good box." the rest of it is pretty bank until, I bullshit you not, the very last pack, in which I pull the grand-daddy of all money cards this format (well, behind tour guide), mr. rescue rabbit himself.

I'm not sure what to say. I thought the chances of pulling a secret rare were about 1 secret per box. I also heard that rabbit was short-printed. to pull 2 secret rares, one of them being rabbit, I'm in sort of a mind=blown state right now.


yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
 
congrats!

i remember one time a friend and I went in and bought all the booster packs in a box of TSHD in a store and didn't get one secret rare
turns out some guy had went there before and bought five packs for a friend's birthday party and he must have gotten it. >.>
 
Just started getting back into the game thanks to Loco/KD/Atticus/Faint and I must say I am loving it again. I started just using Exodia and Toon World for the troll wins, however my record on Dueling Netowrk was like 4-20 so I made a blackwing deck which I continuasly make improvements to, but it's gotten me to a positive record even after that 16 loss defecit, so I must be doing something right :P

Stone, I can help you too! :D

I also have a Blackwing deck, although I don't think they are very good.

Nice pulls Stathakis. Nice try to you too Max. I went 3-4 at my first regionals in 2006 I think, so don't worry. :x

A deck I made recently that uses the new Psychic monsters. Any tips on improving the deck will be accepted.

Im not ultra competitve yet, much like Pokemon, I don't care if it's a winning team as long as I can have some fun w/ it. But id love some help. Winning matches isn't as hard as I thought it'd be, ive finally brought myself up to pace and my record is getting better and better, however my biggest problem is knowing how my opponents decks work and when to use certain cards. But that just takes experience I guess.

I learn something new with blackwings everyday and I am getting better and better at using them, it's one of the easier decks to use so I might try something a little more complicated a bit later.
 
Monsters:
-1 Hushed Psychic Cleric (creates bad hand advantage, and not as useful without Mind Master around for the loop).
-1 Glow-up Bulb
-2 Time Escaper (only use in this deck would be to dodge Effect Veiler, and even then, it's dead in the hand quite often),
-1 Space-Time Police (really bad card, trust me on this one)
-2 Mental Seeker (Esper Girl will always be a better target for Witch, since she always nets you pluses)
-1 Doctor Cranium (Destroyed by battle effect isn't that good with all of the removal, but having 1 around isn't a bad idea).
-2 D.D. Telepon (Bad card is bad)
-2 Reinforced Human Psychic Borg (IMO, you should try to avoid removing from the graveyard.)
-2 Prime Material Dragon (doesn't really fit, dead draw, not as useful with all the alternative means of removal around)

+1 Overdrive Teleporter
+1 Serene Psychic Witch (You NEED 3 for this deck)
+1 Wizard
+1,2, or 3 Wind-Up Juggler (deals with Krystia mostly)
+3 T.G. Warwolf
+1 or 2 T.G. Striker

Spells:
Just to save time, I'm gonna say erase everything except E-Tele, 1 Power Well, and 1 MSF.

+1 Monster Reborn
+1 Heavy Storm
+1 Dark Hole
+1 Pot of Avarice
+1 Mind Control
+2 MST
+2 Enemy Controller / Creature Swap

Traps:
Like with spells, erase everything and start from scratch

+1 Torrential Tribute
+1 Solemn Judgment
+2 Solemn Warning
+2 Dimensional Prison
+2 Bottomless Trap Hole

Extra Deck:
Go with this-
1x Ally of Justice Catastor
1x Magical Android
1x T.G. Wonder Magician (if you go with Warwolf. Esper Girl + Warwolf = this)
1x Naturia Beast
1x Naturia Barkion
1x Brionac
1x Orient Dragon
1x Black Rose Dragon
1x Ancient Fairy Dragon
1x Stardust Dragon
1x Scrap Dragon
1x Thought Ruler Archfiend
1x Trishula
1x Hyper Psychic Blaster
1x Ultimate Axon Kicker
 
what do you guys think about creeping darkness , the new spell card in Order of chaos !

banish 2 dark in grave , Add 1 lvl 4 dark to the hand .

nice! in general it seems like the plus out of photon shockwave are really good. i've seen people pull all sorts of crazy shit

edit: it also seems like a really good set to scale, if anyone knows that that is. every single secret rare, even shard of greed, is worth some money, as are most of the supers and ultras.

yeah, it's definitely worth busting a couple boxes probably. My friend busted a box and pulled zenmaines, ultra laggia, and ulti laggia lol...
 
Started playing again two days ago and I'm loving Six Samurai. Six Samurai and Twilight are the only two archtypes that I've bothered to play so far, but I want to try out a Blackwing Turbo deck before the new banlists arrive in the future.
Monsters: 16
3 Elder of the Six Samurai
1 Enishi, Shien's Chancellor
2 Grandmaster of the Six Samurai
1 Great Shogun Shien
3 Kagemusha of the Six Samurai
3 Legendary Six Samurai - Kageki
3 Legendary Six Samurai - Kizan​

Spells: 18
3 Asceticism of the Six Samurai
1 Dark Hole
1 Gateway of the Six Samurai
1 Heavy Storm
1 Monster Reborn
2 Mystical Space Typhoon
3 Pot of Duality
1 Reinforcement of the Army
1 Shien's Dojo
1 Shien's Smoke Signal
3 Six Samurai United​

Traps: 8
2 Bottomless Trap Hole
1 Dark Bribe
2 Double-Edged Sword Technique
1 Mirror Force
1 Musakani Magatama
1 Solemn Judgement​

Extra Deck
1 Ally of Justice Catastor
1 Black Rose Dragon
1 Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier
1 Colossal Fighter
1 Legendary Six Samurai - Shi En
1 Mist Wurm
1 Naturia Barkion
1 Naturia Beast
1 Scrap Dragon
2 Stardust Dragon
1 T.G. Hyper Librarian
1 Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier
1 Number 17: Leviathan Dragon
1 Steelswarm Roach​
The entire idea of the deck is to, as soon as possible, get either Elder or Kagemusha of the Six Samurai onto the field and then use Ascetism of the Six Samurai to summon the other. Synchro Summon Shi En and then spam as many Special Summons as possible. United provides a good amount of drawing power, with Gateway of the Six Samurai and Shien's Dojo helping me to pull Six Samurai into my hand/onto the field, respectively. So far, I'm thinking about dropping Pot of Duality down to either two or one instead of running three. I never seem to pull them at the right time, always having them in my hand when I need to Special Summon for that turn. The Warrior Returning Alive would help in pulling Kagemusha back into my hand for another Synchro, or maybe another Magatama for more defense. Six Scrolls of the Samurai is also something I would like to test in the future, just for how difficult it can be to draw Great Shogun Shien when I need it (i.e. when Legendary Six Samurai - Shi En is on the field, so as to create a lock on my opponent's Spell/Trap cards).

Oh, and feel free to add me to the OP. DN = Program
 
DN = Ninja#13

I don't make really competitive decks, especially since most of my DN decks have physical copies, so don't expect much of a challenge if you use Plant Synchro or the like. Also, I'm not on especially often, especially not weekday evenings/nights.
 
So I haven't played Yu-gi-oh in a while. Though duelingnetwork sounds really cool and I plan on making an account. Just wanted to ask what archetypes are good right now. I know Chaos decks are gunna be really strong again with BLS-EotE being legal again. Man I don't know like any of the new cards. Like these xyz summons haha
 
Chaos is strong, considering that Chaos Sorcer is semi-limited and Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the End is limited. Synchrocentric is also pretty popular, being 16 out of the Top 32 decks in YCS Kansas. Dino Rabbit, which I've started running recently, is pretty strong as well. Being able to, in one turn, get out a valuable Rank 4 XYZ (probably Laggia or Dolkka to negate your opponent's cards) is pretty awesome, considering it's essentially costless with Rescue Rabbit. Dark World recently got a buff with Grapha, Dark Smog, Snoww, and The Gates. Master Hyperion (or Agent) decks are great as well, since they've Special Summons out the wazoo, along with Synchros and XYZ Summons and, of course, Master Hyperion.

Nah, it's unlimited lol. I haven't seen many people run more than two though.

So what do you guys think of the format so far? I like it for the most part, but Tour Guide Tengu Plants are way too good and hard to counter at the moment. Konami probably needs to hit that deck as well as spell/trap destruction by the time the next list comes around...too many constant pushes for game for my liking.

I've been playing Rescue Rabbit Harpies and doing well!
 
Tour Guide/Reborn Tengu won't be hit by the banlist because they're TCG exclusives.

I'm liking the format so far, but Wind-Ups are so fucking busted and Inzectors are up there too.
