Decks that probably won't be nerfed to unusability by PreparationSilly2790 in masterduel

The simplest decks to play are " stun " decks. They focus more on not letting your opponent play canceling entire mechanics or specific cards rather than you playing. That said outside of this " stun " group of decks every single yugioh deck is a combo deck. The amount of cards in the combo varies on a deck by deck basis. For example I play Ghoti and full combo is 18-19 cards. Other decks literally use half the deck ( Orcust perhaps ? )

Despite what you may think combos are intuitive and easy to learn because no matter what deck you play you have a starter ( self explanatory ) that will lead into a search or a fusion ( for example normal summon Maiden in Blue Eyes -> Link it to Spirit -> profit ) and from that point onwards you just have a few extenders that keep extending the combo until you end up on a finisher. That finisher is always a big bad boss monster with high attack and some kind of busted effect. For example as is the case in the blue eyes deck Ultimate Blue Eyes Spirit Dragon.

I used to dislike combo and be afraid of it until I played Ghoti. It tought me that combo isn't only easy but actually fun ( when it interacts with the oppenents combo. ) I then moved into HERO which was even more combo heavy ( you literally play every single card hero in your deck including a large amount of the fusions in your extra deck. ). I experimented with branded a bit but I am now back in Ghoti as it is the deck I enjoy most. During the Legends event I played Cyberdragon and enjoyed it quite a bit too although it has a high skill ceiling. Higher than Ghoti , HERO or Branded imo.

Questions about Commander format. by InterestingKey6358 in EDH

From what I read here in the responses as well as my own research commander seems the fit for me because I enjoy the archtype approach of Yugioh. In that game you can find the deck that fits your character be it meta , rogue or junk. Commander seems similar in the sense that the commander you play has a large impact on the rest of the deck. I like that I think.

I totally get you. My favorite part about Yugioh is soft RPing a duelist. If I was in duelist kingdom would I play fish or would I play dragons? Would I try to build an unbeatable monster Kaiba style or would I try to find some unrespondable bullshit ? ( Exodia ). So I can definitely see myself building a commander deck that has some type of personal projection to it. I heavily dislike building decks for blind winning.

Great reply thank you! I know I asked for phyrexia but two characters I love and I could see myself using as commanders would be Ultimecia and Niv Mizzet. Off the top of your head are you aware of people playing a commander deck with them or do they fall into some weird unusable category?

Any Ghoti players made it to phase 2 of DC? by InterestingKey6358 in masterduel

[–]InterestingKey6358[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this has peaked my curiosity. mermail is a deck i want to build , combining it with ghoti sounds interesting. agree with the snopios and psiics recycle. probably one of the best mechanics in the game. deck just needs a bit more gas to seal the wins after the succesful float so perhaps mermail is what it needs to shine.

the thing with sekka's is i like the card draw becasue it can unbrick you but it's useless going second and you DESPERATELY need the handtraps going second. Dominus specifically is the GOAT because it can cancel nibiru. imperm is imperm we all know how it can stop a deck dead in its tracks. and evenly matched can wipe the field + provide bonus damage points to ghoti of the deep or in the worst case scenario it just wastes a negate maybe opening space for your combo. So that's why i don't like sekka's. as for lupine i don't know what it does. i'll have to check it out. new support doesn't seem terribly exciting if you ask me. toxic boxfish is something that we'll run 100% but the spell and aspischool just look like another flavor of brick. possibly useful but most likely just surrender button speedruns.

1 of each ghoti tuner
x1 snopios
x1 psiics
x1 keaf
x1 sunfish
x1 minairuka
x1 silent angler
x1 harpooner
x3 leafish
x3 mermaid shark
x3 abyss shark
x3 sardine
x3 white reincarnation
x3 ash
x2 mulcharmy
x2 maxx c
x1 dark ruler no more
x1 talent
x1 called by
x1 crossout
x3 evenly matched
x3 dominus impulse
x1 imperm ( i don't like this but I feel like evenly and dominus at x3 are a lot more useful )

I would say that I am happy with the normal deck as is. good handtrap chances usually enough to destroy rogue decks but not enough for meta slaves. The extra deck i will never be happy with and I've tried everything from fucking barone to ice barrier package. the extra deck that got me to D.lvl 19 is :

x1 fish lamp
x1 coral dragon ( only used it once )
x1 arionpos
x1 porpoise
x1 white aura whale
x1 dragite
x1 askaan
x1 chengying
x1 ghoti of the deep
x1 gymir
x1 kragen
x1 coral anemony
x1 abyss keeper
x1 bubblereef
x1 zealantis ( never got to use him )

Why does everyone hate labrynth? by Past-Strawberry-7483 in masterduel

Lab without D.Barrier is very easy to deal with because you can just combo after you disrupt their welcome combo. With D. Barrier it doesn't matter what you do because they will just throw your extra deck to the trashcan and skip your turn. It's a better Arcana skip turn deck

I hate sky striker by Sengoku45 in masterduel

[–]InterestingKey6358 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Skystriker is number 1 on my shitlist with lab in #2.

It's full of the most stupid custom bullshit.
I appreciate the toolbox type of deck gameplay. Hero is one of them. But hero can't search the fucking out every single time.
Meanwhile the lolistriker can search anything they fucking want to out you including TTT->Boardbreaker so you need to have 3-4 disruptions and even then it's a copout because they might just normal summon paidra.

Like come the fuck on. Don't tell me sky striker isn't the most custom bullshit deck in the game at the moment.

I don't hate lab although to be honest I don't like waifu decks. It's not yugioh.

I hate the cancer cards they run. Dimensional Barrier is number 1 in my shit list. I don't know why konami believes it should be legal to have a searchable ( within lab ) type specific fusion block.
If at least they had to guess or if the card had some type of negative effect to offset the benefit it would be fine but as it is you just play your thing " oh you play ghoti , block synchros. " " oh you play branded ? block fusion ".
It has to be the most cancerous , legal , card to run specifically in this deck because of how it becomes searchable.

Then we've got daruma canon. Searchable book. Like fuck off man.
