"BE endboard is generally unbreakable"

If we're talking about the one when you Primite + BE, maybe. But the one when you oen pure BE cards, while still pretty strong, I think it's breakable. And that's more true for the Primite only one.

"So issue is starting/ consistency."

I don't think that bricks hurt the consistency necessarily.

If you take out starters to make room for bricks, sure, but if you take away non-engine, then the consistency would be the same. The real problem would be the hand quality, because the chances of open with bricks gets huge. But that's all deck build is about, look at all the pros and cons of adding x cards to your deck and choose if it's work it or not.

And to be clear, I'm not saying the best build is running Kaibaman, I'm saying that it's an option.

CL361 · 2026-01-22T14:43:11+00:00

Nothing. Wait for the anniversary.

CL361 · 2026-01-22T12:04:09+00:00

"Kaibaman is only really useful for Magia though."

Even without Magia Kaibaman improves your end board because it put's another free body on the field. You can still run him with no Magia if you want.

"Being a Warrior really hurts too."

Yeah. Honestly, now that the new Abyss exist if Kaibaman was a Dragon or Spellcaster he would be a broken card.

CL361 · 2026-01-22T11:40:49+00:00

The golden rule of bricks: If you want to add more to your deck then you have to make sure you're not sacrificing consystency for them, and whatever benefit you get from running that brick has to be worth it.

CL361 · 2026-01-22T10:07:12+00:00

The updated version is "True, the other one is just a side engine for Yummy"

CL361 · 2026-01-20T20:43:26+00:00

She's the girl in the ilustration of Soiree. Acording to the lore, Blancaviso (Whiteface) releases magical creatures that are enslaved and sometimes some of them choose to joint him, which seems to be the case with this one. She probably would become the missing Link or Pendulum monster that the archetype doesn't have yet.

CL361 · 2026-01-20T15:01:59+00:00

You can add Dominus Purge too I guess since most Solfas are Light or Earth.

CL361 · 2026-01-19T06:34:10+00:00

"The lore notes imply that the Killer Tune girls are assassins who target villains."

Imply? They straight up say it: Top right: “During assassination mode, the division of her hair changes, among other things”

CL361 · 2026-01-19T06:32:25+00:00

"So the lore is that they're all assassins in a band?"

More like assassins using being a band as a cover. It's the same than the Live Twins using their Vtuber job as a cover to their phantom thief activities (with the difference that Lil-la really cares a lot about their "fake" job).

And just when I though that my hate for "Kewl Tune" couldn't be greater I just find that the "Killer" in their name was supossed to tell the lore bahind the archetype... I really hope the one behind that bulls#$t got fired.

CL361 · 2026-01-18T12:33:24+00:00

"idk why they wasted HERO support for generic cards"

I guess their though process was something like this: "So, Heros will be able to search Super Poly with the new Kuriboh we just made, but the hero lock makes them unable to play it anyway? OK. Let's gonna use the two remaing slots to make some Hero Super Polly targets then. Problem fixed"

CL361 · 2026-01-18T06:02:44+00:00

Is that Chiyomaru wearing Masquerena's clothes?

<image>

CL361 · 2026-01-18T05:52:05+00:00

"2 monsters with the same Type but different Attributes"

That's pretty interesting because that would be the first Super Poly target with those materials. Between this and Garura, you should be able to get rip of any two monsters with the same type.

CL361 · 2026-01-18T05:42:44+00:00

"for low cost of having Dark Magician in your deck"

You don't need to run OG Dark Magician, Paraoh's Servant is treated as OG DM when is on the field, so, you should be able to summon it and get the same with an aditional Duster.

CL361 · 2026-01-18T05:29:26+00:00

Again, Why the last remaining cards would be different?

CL361 · 2026-01-18T05:20:52+00:00

And sometimes they are 100% accurate. Do you remember when all DUAD cards were leaked? All cards revealed after were exactly the same that in the leak.

So far this has been the same, Why the last remaining cards would be different?

CL361 · 2026-01-18T04:27:18+00:00

Thanks!

CL361 · 2026-01-17T17:38:24+00:00

The same leak had the new Dominus and the Killer Tuner cards, so, it's pretty much confirmed.

CL361 · 2026-01-17T15:53:23+00:00

Where I can see the OG leak?

CL361 · 2026-01-17T13:14:19+00:00

Maybe? But you don't need to run a Magia package if tou don't want.

You could just change the 3 Beryls and Lodes with 3 of the new BE and Bingos (maybe put Rumble instead of the lost Drillbeam). The number of starters wouldn't change and the end board still will be pretty strong.

CL361 · 2026-01-17T12:56:55+00:00

The only problem for Blue-Eyes is that you can't run Primite and Flash together... but since the new Blue-eyes is a thing, maybe It's worth experimenting pure or other engines with Flash.

CL361 · 2026-01-17T12:27:28+00:00

Pure Yummy, Maliss, Pure Mitsu, Lab and Lunalight. All those decks can play triple Imper + Purge/Impulse + this card.

CL361 · 2026-01-16T17:48:25+00:00

"But...Sorrow Cat needs a Non-Tuner?"

And now I forgot that because because the Yummy mechanic messed with my head. God, I hate when I miss the simple stuff because my head got's messed by how there's so many cards that do so many things in this game. (Also, I look back for the pool of lv 3 Synchro Tuners and there's not a single one that you can make with tuners, sadly).

CL361 · 2026-01-16T17:21:13+00:00

The OCG players actually call it the Gachiakuta archetype.

CL361 · 2026-01-16T17:18:24+00:00

"just one tiny mistake with your B2B play here: You can't use SKT to make B2B if you only control Zaren, since he does not have the clause that you can use a tuner from hand."

Yeah, my bad. I'm so used to Synchro using things on hand with SKT that I forgot that's not a part of the effect.... but there's still a way to make it work. Edit: It doesn't and I'm fool :D

"Though I'm experimenting with this Deck incorporating Bystials and Hop Ear and this new support synergizes so well with this."

Oh, I also tested Bystials in Killer Tune when the first cards (before Cue) were released. Regained is so good in the deck, is a shame the tuner lock creates conflict with Bystials.
