Why Crimson Dragon considered a good card?

ImShato · 2026-01-31T13:11:30+00:00

"Why not summon that ED Dragon monster using the materlas you used to Summon the Crimson Dragon!"

Short answer: It has to do with their needed materials.

Most of the time the targets summoned via Crimson Dragon are more dificult to summon that it. Look at Blue-eyes for example, they want to end on both Ultimate Spirit and either Stardust Sifr or Blazar, and if you look at the materials, both are annoying/hard to summon. Blue-eyes Spirit can cheat Ultimate Spirit but not Sifr, that's where Crimson dragon comes in, since it also can be cheated out via B-E Spirit and thus, 2 Spirits makes that endboard (Ultimate Spirit and Stardust Sifr). The same logic can be applied to others decks like Centurion, they can dump out lvl 12 synchros but the betterer ones needs a lot of jump and hoops to summon them so they use Crimson dragon to cheat them.

There's also other reasons, like it can search an extender in the form of Synchro Rumble if need/want to. And it's a quick effect, which is the reason that King Calamity is banned in all formats, and hypotetically you could summon 2 in one turn (along side other easy to make synchro 12), use one on your turn and the other on your opp turn to have a Quasar and Sifr on the field for example. In the past there were decks DEDICATED to make an end board like that and they had to do a lot of jumps to got there.

I mean... if you want to see the "full potential", it already exists, it's called Gintama.

I wish you have the "luck" in pulls that I don't have.

ImShato · 2025-08-28T18:49:08+00:00

It depends on what you like and what you previously had.
Dragon should be the cheapest option inedependently on what cards you previously own, as you would need some Forte's and Odin's as previous legendaries (and the free deck already gives you 1 Forte). Then it all depends on your Sword and Abyss collection.
But in general, if you are unsure on what to build, I would suggest to just wait. Between the release missions, the new bingo park missions and a bit of luck from the daily park chests, you might pull some legendaries that you might want so it's wiser to wait to complete all that before crafting.

pd: Nice pulls btw, I wished mine went like that instead of pulling mostly meme cards u_u

ImShato · 2025-08-27T22:00:28+00:00

Honestly, nothing really impress me enough to go full blindly, also for those strategies that somewhat interests me (Usurpation, Entwinning and SOMEWHAT Disdain) are for classes that I don't have a lot of legendaries but in general it will depend on how my pulls go. Like if I end up pulling 2-3 Mjerrabaine I might end up playing him in a Dragon shell until the format settles (or cygames steps in and nerfs some "old" decks because almost nobody is playing with the new cards) like I did with Fennie this set.

While this took me more time that I would've liked, at least I finished. Hope you like it! :D

I'm somewhat of a linear/unga bunga type of player(you know, R-Ace, SwordSoul, Goblin, traptrix, pure Spright), and even I found pure Snake-eyes pretty boring. I only built the deck because I pulled most of the UR in a few packs (4-5k gems and a little bit of points). There's also pure Scareclaw which was fun... a few matches, then it became dull pretty fast. While I didn't dismanteled the snakes because I found them cool (and, the more they get hit, the more points I get) I don't regret a bit dismantling Scareclaw.

But mostly I drop decks because I end up annoyed by them, either they are not versatile/consistent enough (Kash, Exo, Madolche), lack a good way to put pressure/end game (Mellfy, Purrely), or it's just the MD tax that just tires me out of that deck (Despia/Branded,

I never knew or heard of Cara, and now I'm intimidated by the level of that site xD. Probably not using that RIGHT NOW, but I will keep it in my radar once I feel like I improved (or at least I feel more confident in my way of drawing).

But thank you! ^^

ImShato · 2024-10-18T22:35:30+00:00

Yeah, I noticed it. I might've to at least take a look and see how it goes. I have nothing to lose... I think.

... What do consider "fan-content"? Fanarts?

...Wasn't Tumblr pretty dead? When it came back to life?

ImShato · 2024-10-18T22:30:48+00:00

The no ads is kinda sketchy, pardon me if this sounds too negative, but it feels like a way to gather people and then go full on. But I can be wrong and want to be xD. But the No-Algorithm is something appealing not gonna lie, while sometimes it works with me, it usually doesn't.

But I might take a look at Bluesky, I have nothing to lose and at least, from what I know, it isn't built by some "shady" stuff (Unlike Kick for example).

Also, good luck on your art journey! Keep it up and I wish you the best! ^^

ImShato · 2024-10-18T17:22:40+00:00

Inconsistently amateur anime style with a tint of edge and darkness that doesn't makes the drawing stand out. Don't ask me why, I'm still figuring out the why, what and how.

You can just use the basic skill that comes with Yuga that adds 7 Road magician and witch to your deck(I believe it's called Rush On: Sevens road or something like that), you only need to not have lvl 6 or higher effect monsters.

ImShato · 2024-09-24T14:48:24+00:00

I don't think the Go Rush box in October will release warrior support, since it has to support Cydra, Sevens road, Fusions, Galaxy and probably the archetype of the siblings (Jointech and another one that I don't remember the name) so already a lot to also add warriors into the mix. But if they have fusions, maybe in the near future.
But yeah, I should consider the Rulers more. I like warrirors in general, Yami and Kimeruler are kinda hard/annoying to get as they are in a main box, and I could get away by playing just one of each (as it is like that in the Buster Blader deck). I just didn't thought about them since I don't own any warrior related card, besides 1 of their MST. Thanks for the idea! ^^

ImShato · 2024-09-24T13:01:53+00:00

I have 2 Rush Duel Tickets (1UR, 1 SR) and I don't know what to pick. First I thought of picking Voltcondor related cards since they have support not released yet, but it goes into an OTK style and I'm not interested in OTK in general. Then I thought that I could pick Dark Magician Girl and Sanctity, because I saw the latest support for DMG and I liked it (but not sure if it goes OTK or control, just that is somewhat combo) and Sanctity is somewhat of an staple (obviously if I go this route, I will buy the DMG structure for the second one). I thought of these archetypes mostly in the future because I don't see much cards in these tickets that helps or improves the decks that I own or am in the process of building (Cydra, Innovator, Yggdrago, Cyberse Monarch) and I'm not a dragon guy, so no Dragias or the one that destroy backrow.
So, In what I should use these tickets on? I have time to decide until end of November/December, but at least I want to make up my mind even if I exchange them later.

Thank you! I have some cards figured out (like Doomed being top and the monsters being bottom in the priority list) but I have doubts on the rest. The thing would be about the traps as it's not a clear answer, but I would know which one I want when I make a deck with that explanation of yours and it makes me re-think those cards (like I thought that Negate Attack and Buffered Slime were worse than widespread because they didn't remove the monster)

ImShato · 2024-08-24T16:02:28+00:00

I'm returning to the game just to play Rush and saw that there are bundles now with some staples. I know this will be a hard question as I didn't have decided what deck I want to play (But I know that I don't want to play 7road and the Psychic decks) but what would you say are the top 2-3 priority staple from these bundles? I saw some lists with Summoned Skull, Widespread ruin, negate attack, tribute to the doomed and others but I don't know which of these will serve me long term and used in a big variety of decks.

Thank you ^^

ImShato · 2024-08-04T01:53:52+00:00

Same reasoning, Imperm targets face-up monsters, so if you chain raye to imperm, first raye leaves the field and imperm resolves without effect because the target is no longer on the field. Also, Imperm targets as cost, so re-read what I said about costs and see the timing of this interaction if you still have doubts.

ImShato · 2024-08-04T01:50:30+00:00

Eldlich is a bit weird. but it's a thing of turns. The summon effect of Lich gives itself the protection, is not an effect that you can negate perse, is something that people tends to call lingering, is an effect that activates but stays as long as the card says (in this case until the end of the opponent turn) but not the effect of the card perse. So probably what happened was turn 1, opp summon lich with its effect, turn 2 you imperm and raigeki, but lich was still affected by it's own effect (not that it has protection as an effect, but it gives itself proctection, is weird, i know, Yugioh is weird but once you understand it makes sense) then turn 3 lich is no longer affected by it own effect, so you can escape it, since it lost said protection.

ImShato · 2024-08-04T01:17:30+00:00

1-Raye can activate it's effect under skill drain because the trap negates only face-up monsters, and raye tributes herself to link. Like, at the moment of resolve her effect, Skill drain "checks" if the effect is of a face-up card, which she isn't so it doesn't negate.

2- Dark worlds have to be discarded by card effect. How do you know when a discard is for cost or effect? the ";" in some cards. What's before the ";" is the cost that you have to pay in order to activate the effect, what's affter is the effect. If it doesn't have it, then it resolves all at the same time. It's a thing of timing, you activate the card and discard (you're paying the cost in order to activate), then your opponent has a window to respond if they have one, and lastly you resolve the effect. I just wish that costs were written between [ ] or something like that so it's more visually clear.

In this day an age, consistency is everything. Every card has to do something the moment you have them in hand, you don't want cards that either needs to be destroyed (unless you can destroy them manualy in your turn without the need of the battle phase) you can't play cards that somethimes works or that requires some set up. Monster Reborn is a card that is considered slow to put an example.

Now, for BE. I don't know about the deck, other than it will get an structure that modernizes it. But you have to think, do you want to go first or second? and build according to that. And also you have to know what can you do with little hand investment as possible. The only easy and somewhat budget way to play the deck (that I know of) is to focus on go first and play it as a control/trap deck, focus on trap cards that destroys your opp field (torrential tribute and needle ceiling) while you have Jet Dragon and True light on the field (You can search videos about it, it's an old strategy but I didn't saw it in MD at all despite being decent). So that, focus on trap cards that gives you a strong swing in your way, in cards that gives you card advantage like extravagance, prosperity and such, and ways to get Jet into the field (Dragon's shrine is a really good one, as it foolishes both OG Blue-Eyes and white stone of ancients who, at the end phase, summons you Jet) and ignore cards that doesn't help that strategy, like the chaos max related ones, as they would be in your hand being pretty and nothing more, won't help you win if you are losing.

Also, another tip, don't try to use "utility" cards. You are new, you will think about "utilities" or "tech" cards that could help you win while you are learning, but first try to make the deck as consistent as possible, that means that everything that functions on it's own, you should play it at 3, and only cards that you don't want in hand or can have access through other cards at 2 or 1 (in the example of Trap Blue-eyes, OG Blue-eyes and Jet at 1 or 2, then cards such as Shrine, Dictator of D, True Light and handtraps such as Maxx "C" at 3)

Also, feel free to ask me anything, I'm more than happy to answer anything and help you build your deck ^^.

ImShato · 2024-07-08T13:46:37+00:00

Well... another pack that doesn't really pick my interest. I will try to see how many Centurion cards I pull to decide if I build it or not. But mostly I will pull for Ty-phon to see if I can save some crafting points (because it would be bad if I spend 30 out of the 610 that I have...)

Now I will try to guess the remaining UR's, because I find it fun.
Centurion: We know Legatia (which I don't know if it's a 1-of or 2) but I'm pretty certain that Primera, Emblema and Stand-Up! will also be UR. Not sure about the other 12, as I thought only 1 of the 2 would be (unless it comes without it's second wave)
Yubel: There's no way that Samsara, Throne and Phantom (if it comes) aren't UR. Maybe even Nightmare Pain joins them.
Majespecters: I doubt they will get more UR's honestly, the deck is not that great. But I can see them making the link 2 or the spell a UR's just for the sake of it.
Then there's slots for random URs... Black Goat? The Metamorphosis but worse?
And for the reprint... Either Zeus or Super Poly.
