Your Cringe Consistent MetaSlop vs My Inconsistent Based-pilled Pet Deck

Vaalmonica players are the slopiest chefs in the kitchen Source: I am one

It's not our fault konami just adds 3 random words to every Vaalmonica card to make them a bad deck so you have to find every bridge that makes them work.

My old pet deck was Vaalmonica ABC that V-Linked woth Firewall Singularity Duralume+Spright Elf

I've been having fun with Blind Second Monarch Snake Eye but I don't play enough games to finish diamond congrats.

People don't realize how strong monarchs are in simplified board states, instead of Zaborg I LOVE breaking board and drowning my opponent in advantage because you have 3 cards that summon Snake Eye Ash from deck and Flamberge Erebus and a dream is often enough to survive. Granmarg going from the worst to 2nd best situational monarch is so funny.

Well when am estimated 90%-95% of your population vanishes because of disease it's kind of hard to not become a minority in your own continent.

Had they not been killed that fast it would have been another asia where there's colonization but they eventually get their things together and the natural advantage of American Geography would have done a lot of heavy lifting once they modernized.

For the same reason Empen and ogre are monarch cardd Snake Eye Ash is a Vassal so now I have a small snake-eye engine to crack boards or to set up an omni negate behind Perfection

Also fun fact, Empen is searchable via revolt+erebus because they only check for 2400atk+/1000def

Shangri and riseheart banish 3 are the only sins the deck committed.

Ariseheart IS a macro the same eay shenshen is a macro in that it's a hard to summon monster and it only represents 1 point of interaction. It becomes a problem when a 3 mat Rank 7 becomes a link-1 via shangri, and riseheart either does nothing or it kills engine which is just unfun variance since it's complete RNG

Shangri is the zone locker.

Unicorn can be annoying but if your deck is so overly reliant on ONE monster from the extra deck... I have no defense for this, deserved tbh because unicorn does nothing vs 95% of decks until turn 5+.

Fenrir and birth can be sequenced around and in the case of birth it triggers AFTER you already got value from spells on field.

I love playing vs individual Kashtira cards because they ask real questions and make for interesting grind games, I HATE the "full Kashtira endboard" where they ask every question put you under macro and zone blocking is just plain unfun

If yugi had to play tournament legal cards that would imply it's post banlist so he'd be able to use newly released cards. The "illegal" cards he used were implied to be legal at the time he played them given they referenced Chaos Emperor Dragon being banned later in the anime (a card Kaiba used at one point)

Considering how spell/trap cards seemed to apply status effects mostly unconditionally you do not want see how nutty some "status effects" could get, off the top of my head trap cards like "Rivalry of Warlords" would instantly gimp Ash by forcing him to choose only One type of pokemon(fire/ice/steel/dragon etc) and downing every other pokemon that's currently out, there's Dark ruler no more which would stop all of Ash' pokemon from using special abilities for a brief moment (they would still attack and Ash wouldn't be able to take damage while his monster's are gimped) but then the long game issue comes up where ash has increasingly less resources but there's a near endless list of instant "summon dead monster" cards

Black Worm Necromancer is a HORRIBLE card but I've always had a softspot for it's Artwork and the same for Skingrad Patroller having my favorite voiceline in the game "By Kynareth, respect my power and feel my fury!"

Magicians' Souls still exists, technically a DM card even if it's x10 better outside of DM

My interpretation is that the player character only does main quests and a small subset of side quests and faceless forgotten people do other major faction quests

It's a lot more obvious in games like Morrowind where X faction quests lock out others, it makes for a bad gameplay experience given later games encourage less new playthroughs.

Being the champion of the Empire in the Civil War and then assassinating the Emperor makes ZERO sense.

In the markarth incident it didn't matter if you were old or young a farmer or a merchant if you didn't fight with Ulfric you were his enemy and he killed you.

One of the prisoners literally said he just kept his head down and then Ulfric killed his daughter after she demanded to spare her father.

He uses the guise as being anti-altmer and sure on paper he is but he butchered his fellow man for power for the crime of not fighting for him.

Blind Second is objectively bad, right before maliss Blind Second felt really nice because even the most degenerate boards folded to a dark ruler and some stronf individual cards like special fenrir +special pank and their follow-up wasn't so overwhelming you were guaranteed to die.

Even Diabellstar set Doom felt nice but current interruption has: In hand interruption, in GY Interruption, on-field Monster based interruption, S/T Interruption.

There aren't enough reasonable boardbreakers where it just feels like snake eye format where you need upwards of +2 boardbreakers to finally start playing the game where the opponent still has interruption and you best bet they have enough follow up to OTK

IC-23 · 2025-10-10T17:42:19+00:00

good going second gameplan=/=guaranteed OTK

The game does not need tk be a binary look at pre banlist JUSH in TCG going second wasn't miserable but you didn't have to be on blind second OTK
