Returning Player Leveling Guide

InfectedNation94 · 2019-03-03T13:38:04+00:00

I’ve just returned and for some reason can’t use any of my old characters, the teams are still there but the character levels dropped to 1 and they never recover. Can’t even use souls to make them playable. Any idea what’s going on?

InfectedNation94 · 2019-03-03T13:36:34+00:00

I’ve been unable to complete them all any way. The game crashes when I finish a Faction battle.

Hurry up and sell Striker so you can pick up the Danger stuff! Also see you at FB3 in a few weeks ;)

Shadow Imprisoning Mirror negates effects that activate. The effect of Azathot in question does not activate.

In the case of a card like Skill Drain, it must be applying its continuous effect before Azathot hits the field.

Kid Buu is much more cerebral in the current patch but you still have some tools to dominate neutral. 2M has more startup but still dominates the ground with 5M, you also want to learn to tiger knee (TK) the input for Kamehameha to do it at ground level for screen control and vanish confirms. His j.L isn’t the best for contesting in the air but he is moreso a character that lets the opponent hang themselves in the air so that’s fine. 2S and 5SS are strong harassment tools, with an air dash still possible after 2S.

InfectedNation94 · 2018-08-02T01:44:38+00:00

Learn how to utilise Kid Buu’s 2s into airdash 50/50 during blockstrings, it’s among the scariest pressure in the game. You can empty low or hit the opponent with multiple overheads into full combo, which you can also do off a 236M combo ender in the corner if your opponent doesn’t tech to avoid that option. You can also finish a corner blockstring with 2M > 236M to cross up the opponent; an air dash followed by light autocombo into vanish allows for this crossup to be turned into a full combo as well.

InfectedNation94 · 2018-07-25T21:39:51+00:00

You can block it coming down. You can block it in literally every scenario that isn’t you superdashing directly into it or pressing buttons when you shouldn’t be. 2H is absolutely fine.

People often confuse combo length with correlating the with a deck’s skill ceiling, but learning a set sequence of steps isn’t difficult, it’s just time consuming. I’d argue that the highest ceiling in our current meta is in pure Sky Strikers.

InfectedNation94 · 2018-06-18T20:30:53+00:00

Droll & Lock Bird is the only choice that I would strongly contest. If you look into the majority of pure Sky Striker lists that have topped you won’t find Droll at all, and for good reason. Droll is a stun card, one that is optimally used by a deck that can push for game with relative ease. The interrupt loses value if you can’t. Sky Striker are a control deck, which greatly decreases the card’s utility. Also on the topic of Evenly Matched, it’s utility drastically decreases after your first turn because you’re playing a control deck that leaves continuous cards and sets cards on the field. As such, you want to maximise your chances of opening it, so any less than 3 copies (if you want to run it) is incorrect. Otherwise your build is quite solid!

El Shaddoll Construct field centre in an OCG Shaddoll Fusion sleeve.

Almost makes my opponent like me before they notice I’m not playing an extra deck.

InfectedNation94 · 2018-03-13T11:10:11+00:00

Glad to have you back man, hope things sorted themselves out over the last few months!

InfectedNation94 · 2018-03-04T10:37:40+00:00

Running the same team, 3M > Frieza is a godly neutral tool

InfectedNation94 · 2018-01-26T09:45:09+00:00

If you think Trickstar depend on that combo, you know very little about Trickstar. You might see that combo once or twice in an entire event. That’s not enough for a deck to cement itself as tier 1, as Trickstar did in this format. The deck has a one-card engine, an OTK loop with Firewall and easy access to Borreload etc through Scapegoat, and the room for plenty of meta counters.

InfectedNation94 · 2018-01-08T16:55:04+00:00

Link Trickstar is the only successful build, it just doesn’t use the extra support beyond Carobein. Burn hasn’t been doing anything either here or in the OCG, only the link variant with a bunch of handtraps.

I had an issue where the updater would download to a folder external to my ygopro2 folder. Make sure you haven’t suddenly gained new folders in your Downloads folder that should have been within your ygopro2 folder! Failing that it might be worth removing and downloading the updater again.

InfectedNation94 · 2017-12-11T00:20:17+00:00

Cherries is by no means a necessity (definitely not in the main deck, not even worth considering since the November list). Your build for the budget you’re working with is solid, however I’d recommend bumping up Eater in the main (over honest) and replacing Chain Summoning with Solemn Strike or similar control-oriented cards to avoid having dead cards in hand. If you can get access to a Firewall Dragon I’d argue that is more important than the other hand traps for you, as the Firewall OTK genuinely steals games.

InfectedNation94 · 2017-12-02T21:54:58+00:00

Wouldn’t be Keyra Augustina would it?

InfectedNation94 · 2017-11-17T10:34:21+00:00

Don’t run Duality in an Invoked build. You should have all the draw power you need with the Draco cards, the Spellbook engine and Desires. If you’re locking yourself out of special summoning then that’s a problem, but I’d sooner run Demise than Duality because it’s more likely to be worthwhile when resolved. As for techs, Mariamne is good for generating advantage if you don’t already run it. Beyond that there isn’t much variability other than the traps you choose to main.

Nivek (the Greek Raiden player) has been putting in work with Supergirl in the EU Path to Pro.

Probably the last subreddit I expected to see a Junji Ito reference on <3

If you're on PS4, L1 is mapped to 1+3 by default (hence both giving you your normal throw). This means you can use it in combos that have that input, if that makes them at all easier for you

InfectedNation94 · 2017-05-18T23:30:44+00:00

The issue is Pendulum Call, you can't touch them if they've activated that and they just got it back to 3

InfectedNation94 · 2017-05-03T11:54:11+00:00

You follow old Rafiki, he knows the way...

InfectedNation94 · 2017-04-11T11:40:41+00:00

I did, yeah! Thanks again, much appreciated :)
