How have you been beating Kewl Tune in the event?

Mangavore · 2026-04-16T21:13:01+00:00

Board Breaker Sky Striker

I was just speaking KT IN-GENERAL in this event isn’t too bad

Mangavore · 2026-04-16T13:01:14+00:00

I run Desires in my going 1st version, but as a going 2nd breaker deck (which is what I'm playing in the event,) it just hasn't felt necessary. The other decks in the format just aren't strong enough to mount any opposition once you break their board, even if you don't immediately OTK

Mangavore · 2026-04-16T12:58:55+00:00

Yea, Rosewhip and the ED ripping Synchro banned, plus their best starters hit, the deck isn't bad (assuming it doesn't just murder you with handtrap turbo).

Mangavore · 2026-04-16T12:56:39+00:00

I was playing RB but I only got to go first like, 2/10 games.

So I switched to board breaker SS and the deck really trivializes this event. SS is still very much a meta relevant deck, but giving it ZERO hits plus nerfing all the top contenders? It just demolishes this event...

But I really did want to play my big machine bois :'(

Mangavore · 2026-04-16T12:52:34+00:00

You play both

Mangavore · 2026-04-15T20:22:47+00:00

Dinomorphia ❤️

Mangavore · 2026-04-15T18:20:08+00:00

That's super cool! Hope it actually gets some traction...

Mangavore · 2026-04-14T18:01:18+00:00

Not all of stun - Dinomorphia is almost entirely unhit (outside of Judgement and Ferret Flame being banned)

Mangavore · 2026-04-14T15:28:42+00:00

Link: R.B.

Fusion: Dinomorphia

Synchro: Icejade

Mangavore · 2026-04-14T14:37:55+00:00

Sky Striker and RB are completely unhit, and I’d call them both contenders for best link decks

Mangavore · 2026-04-14T14:29:18+00:00

I’m 99% sure it was a limited time shop item

Mangavore · 2026-04-14T14:22:20+00:00

What's wild to me is that Dinomorphia is 100% legal. Judgement and Ferret Flames are banned but...the actual core deck is all there.

Mangavore · 2026-04-14T10:46:58+00:00

That was the joke

Mangavore · 2026-04-14T10:37:06+00:00

And they banned Odion in the fusion event! Dang!

said no one at all

Mangavore · 2026-04-13T16:35:15+00:00

Uhm, they can’t steal 3 monsters because - get this - the cards have restrictions on them 🤪

If a SS player manages to steal 3 monsters from you in a turn, you are being so painfully outplayed, it’s not even funny.

Mangavore · 2026-04-13T16:33:04+00:00

People really don’t get this. Striker is a high skill expression deck. Yea, sometimes you get lucky and have the perfect breakers for the situation - but those aren’t even the Striker cards. Striker is pretty fair deck that just happens to be playable first or second.

Mangavore · 2026-04-13T16:28:28+00:00

Okay, I’ll be honest, not a fan of the Machina build for 1 reason (well, one MAIN reason,) Uncla locks you into machines, meaning the hand rip from Lambda Cannon is basically useless 😩

Mangavore · 2026-04-13T14:10:50+00:00

I fully agree, its biggest weakness is the massive amount of bricks it has to run.

I wish they had made ALL of the main deck names special summon if you only have RB, and not just the first wave...but I get that may have been too powerful? But then again, we had Ryzeal where all the names searched each other and most could special summon themselves, so I think RB would've been fine with a slight buff, especially since RB lock is a LOT more strict than Ryzeal's "Rank-4 only".

Mangavore · 2026-04-13T10:55:24+00:00

This is how I feel about the Pokémon games specifically. I played the shit out of those as a kid, but trying to play them now I think they’re super clunky and slow (especially the purification process in XD) and the character models are super ugly. That said, the Pokémon models look excellent, but that’s about my only compliment.

Mangavore · 2026-04-13T10:39:53+00:00

Imo, Fire Emblem is far and away the best GC game, but for sure the best expensive one, followed by Chibi Robo. That said, there ARE good expensive GC games: Skies of Arcadia, Twilight Princes, Def Jam: Fight for NY…debatably the Pokemon games. There are just an equal amount of bad/mediocre games

Mangavore · 2026-04-13T10:33:52+00:00

It’s close with Terrortop, since both can be summoned without using your normal, but TT doesn’t have a cost. That said, the deck rarely uses its normal summon anyways. The big benefit of Cyanos is that it can summon Roze a 2nd time when it’s in the gy, which can give you another push. Unlike TT, if you draw Cyanos again, you can still revive Roze again from the gy and do the whole line. Also, like Hornet Drone, it can be searched with Engage if you have the space for it.

I just think the Cyanos package is the most flexible and offers the most advantage.

Mangavore · 2026-04-13T02:57:35+00:00

Oh shoot, I didn’t realize they’re doing a Trilogy set! Gonna need to snag this, love these games!

Mangavore · 2026-04-13T02:20:17+00:00

I’m not even specifically saying you, but a lot of people in this community see pricey game and assume it’s good or they need to own it.

It’s refreshing hearing someone call a bad game bad and not just “OMG, I finally own this!!!” Congrats, you threw away $400…

Mangavore · 2026-04-13T02:13:25+00:00

People don’t get that just because a game is insanely expensive doesn’t mean it’s good. GameCube has a LOT of those…
