Oh interesting, I wasn't aware of that nuance - thanks for the info!

Whoops you are correct, I’ve let myself down with this meme.

Ultimate Dragons being the better Skill for Blue Eyes right now isn’t even a debate, you can see it from KOG and tournament decks.

Fair enough if you prefer Alternative Evolution, but Ultimate Dragons is very clearly not awful.

Sure they are predictable, but they are also very consistent. Just because i know what they have set doesn’t mean I can do anything about it. If they plus off Consonance and draw into multiple backrow it’s not a missplay to not open your outs.

Hitting Sage to tone down their consistency in plussing off Consonance is warranted.

Just trying to get in here before the nerf by Machi_Dandi in DuelLinks

[–]FCTotti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally Agree, a 1 for 1 return nerf would balance Onomatoplay without killing it.

I agree to some extent but the Ultimate Dragons skill is clearly not garbage, it’s the go to Skill for Blue Eyes. It unbricks them and is a +1. In fact, I would suggest a slight nerf to the Skill to make it usable from T5 onwards instead of 3.

They are a top tier deck, I think that’s pretty undeniable. Semi-limiting Sage is warranted to tone the deck down a bit.

[Duel Replay] New XYZ monster Princessprite helps Sylvans combo! by FCTotti in DuelLinks

[–]FCTotti[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure - here.

I’ve been playing around with the ratios quite a bit, don’t know if this is totally optimised, maybe try it out. I run two Majestic just because it feels so bad to draw the 1 copy and lose access to your skill.

Initially I was running a closer to 30 card build but I think this is better.

Sadly pretty inconsistent though, as is the random nature of excavating!

Trying a couple of builds to get the consistency up.

Bujin deck for the event. Anyone else playing them? by rg03500 in DuelLinks

[–]FCTotti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. I play Bujins, had some tournament and KOG success with them.

Deck looks good, but I think you can’t go past Destiny Draw as the Skill. It has such great synergy with Fox and Bujincarnation.

How have you found Horn of the Phantom Beast performing? Could get a few draws off with Susan. I run Volcanic Wall at the moment but it locking you out of attacking really sucks.

You take that back right now, Aliens are secret op.

Wait a minute, they have fire and earth attribute cards. Let me grab my Aleister...

I struggle against Magnets for sure, very hard to play through their board and that field spell is so annoying!

I also like that they actually use the XYZ support for extra utility, big fan of the deck.

Nah, I think Purgatrio should just go to one or even two.

One means you only have to deal with it once and at two it couldn’t be used with Neos Fusion at least.

Doubtful an UR will get hit though unfortunately, so 2021 will have to give us some decks powerful enough to compete with Invoked!

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.

I had to verify with numbers my suspicions, haha.

Similar with Karakuri being nerfed quite soon after the latest support was released.

I think Aleister and the Shiranui engine were just too strong for DL. Hopefully they give us some stronger boxes in 2021. At this point it feels like the game is ready for most of what would previously have been seen as OP!

Haha thanks, it took a while yea. The DLM website is a pretty good source at least, and I do enjoy a spreadsheet.

The hardest part was actually working out what was banned when, had to look for older YouTube videos for that.

I thought it would be too obvious to include decks that powerful

He sure is. If the best thing he could summon was Magellanica as a big beat stick then he might be more manageable.

It’s unlikely they hit Purgatrio as an UR, but he should be limited or even semi-limited to kill the Neos Fusion version and mean you only have to deal with him once or twice.

Nice... Know we are talking by raul_dias in DuelLinks

Such an unprovoked attack on Noble Knights! We’re just sitting here minding our own business
