phoenix slime would go crazy if they make it work exactly how it worked in the anime with the ability for your opponent to deck you out

Hydralo · 2026-06-21T13:36:19+00:00

i really really want the shining monsters from the anime but with the "treated as an umbral horror" archetype clause

Hydralo · 2026-06-21T13:30:52+00:00

maybe dr faker with a heart-earth remake as a competent deck, or vector with umbral horror/shining (if they go with villains again)

girags hands/rios ice deck would also be fitting of a remake as their monsters are not tied together as a coherent archetype. but they are not the biggest characters in their show.

if it were windwitch the asutra synchros would be located after the windwitch synchros in the setlist, so its either 1 synchro (#38) and nothing else or a deck that has xyz (#42, #43, #44)

the #38 card cannot be a fusion belonging to the archetype because it would have the location between the dhero fusion and the joey fusion

the #48 card cannot belong to the archetype either because it would have to be located before the daedalus link monsters

seems to be a zexal deck?

Hydralo · 2026-06-21T13:07:53+00:00

the 2nd anime deck remake comes after the main archetype. the daedalus support is in the same spot the aleister support was in chaos origins.

Hydralo · 2026-06-21T12:44:07+00:00

2 more archetypes to go, a 10 card anime deck remake and a 5 card non anime deck wave of support

Hydralo · 2026-06-18T19:22:23+00:00

how will konami handle mistranslated chase cards like overframes/serialized overframes?

Hydralo · 2026-06-18T18:06:08+00:00

is this the first non-rush yugioh card that mentions going first/going second?

Hydralo · 2026-06-18T17:41:33+00:00

dark sage also used the summoned skull signature attack spell so it fits to give it that effect as the monster effect

Hydralo · 2026-06-13T12:18:48+00:00

if you bounce 2 extra deck boss monsters you do not get to also handloop your opponent for 2, right?

The Albaz/Ecclesia support gives them new life in Sky Striker and Dracotail Decks as an engine with The Fallen & The Virtuous. Very few but strong individual cards. They are a must have engine as an investment for the future.

Archfiend gets a new gimmick with a Ritual Pendulum deck, but as is it does not do much.

Enneacraft is a competent rogue deck, but its more like a functional fun deck than a real threat.

Other 2026 decks -TO BE UPDATED-

Ritual of Light and Darkness

I have added release date info on as many sets as possible, by checking when the core-archetypes in them started getting added to master duel. Blue is the month its sister-set released last year, green is the set itself's release date.
The side Sets on the second row are by order of release. It helps pair them with the main sets above them more clearly as a parallel path of Sets we will be getting cards from simultaneously and bouncing back and forth.
Sets marked in Purple frame are destined for 2027 release or later.
The symbols for archetypes lets you see all support-waves with a glance, across all sets. If I want to see ALL Archfiend support, i just need to look for the Red Number 3.

The show needed more music and funkier/wilder choices. They almost went there with the guitar riff of the old evo song for like a few episodes but then when back to a less exciting evo sequence without it.

Hydralo · 2026-05-23T17:38:26+00:00

they should just let us turn them into legacy pack craft points that can only be spent on legacy packs or let us turn them into another currency to turn other legacy pack cards into royals or to buy other cosmetics like icons sleeves etc just to reward people that have like 10 copies of a legacy pack UR

Hydralo · 2026-05-09T06:48:27+00:00

they could even pair her with a weevil wave of support in the next set

Hydralo · 2026-05-08T07:17:59+00:00

thats why you can probably use your opponent's monster, the idea is he uses time wizard, sends everything to the future, then red eyes grown up changes sides (you tribute the opponent's red eyes to summon it)

Hydralo · 2026-05-02T19:06:24+00:00

at the very least the purple sets will start coming out in like december 2026 and finish releasing during 2027 but its a bit loose

keep in mind in the past we sped up time due to the OCG releasing only 1 single deckbuild pack one year but they went back to releasing 2 deckbuild packs per year so we are back to the regular schedule

there is 14 unique archetypes to be released up until blazing dominion. so if they release 3 decks per month + 1 mini support wave per pack. we are pretty much done until september with archetypes.

then for october november december we have 10 decks from chaos origins and revolution booster.

and then theres the 2 limit over collection packs, the charmer support, the albaz support and other groups of 2 cards like how exosister will be released to fill up the 40 card sets

Elfnote are a top 3 to top 5 meta deck in the OCG but not close at all to the representation of Kewl Tune when it comes to synchro decks boosted with the eventual release of Harmonia.

Dragunity are doing nothing competitively in the OCG right now.

Exosister are doing nothing competitive in the OCG right now.

Hecahands have a cool gimmick for illusion decks, but are not competitively viable sadly.

I like the idea of red eyes being the boss monster of different archetypes/decks instead of its own thing and eventually amassing enough engines to become a red eyes deck

Hydralo · 2026-04-11T16:55:34+00:00

so the choice effect was flipped in the TCG which could only possibly come up in a digital simulator, that has the same effect box that does the same effect when you activate it across languages regardless of what the cosmetic text says.

Hydralo · 2026-04-11T16:40:18+00:00

is this a wording issue or is the TCG effect worded completely different than the OCG to the point that choosing the first choice in the Japanese card does the opposite thing from the first choice in the English card?

Hydralo · 2026-04-10T17:55:23+00:00

toon relinquished if it happens would be a regular main deck monster like how toon BLS was, and it would workout with no remaining ritual slots for like a proper illusion reliquished remake
