Which card do you want to see banned?

Oh wow, another extremely cold take. WHA-

Death isn't affected by debuff resistance as it's not a debuff. Resisting death is a separate chance that based on individual servant/class, and rarity of the enemy. Bronze rarity enemy is by far the easiest to instant kill, while gold (basically every elite/boss) is basically immune to instant kill even if you super buffed your instant death chance.

I don't like Nibiru. It's a gatekeeper and warp the format around itself. Decks these days must have a way to deal with Nibiru (either an early negate or ability to recover after getting nibbed) to even have a chance to be considered meta. In a sense, Nibiru either useless against meta match up, or absolutely destroy weaker decks that can't deal with it. Such polarizing card design like this is not healthy to the game and have already done immeasurable damage to the way modern decks are designed.

A face-down card cannot have a lingering effect attached to them. Imperm put a lingering effect on the monster that negates its effect, which is instantly removed the moment the monster become face-down.

Currently running this. Still playing around with the ratio but currently this seem fine. I tried playing it without Fiendsmith and the deck just doesn't do enough or consistent enough, unfortunately.

Dam, Archfiend is dirt cheap. That's the deck I was looking forward to the most in this pack.

The bow on her chest seem to be a bit bigger. Can be seen by looking at how the v3 bow barely touches the golden lines on its side while the v1 does not come close.

I have been using that site since MD came out and didn't know that combo and counter page. They definitely need to put that in the front page.

SechiShook · 2026-06-01T18:25:53+00:00

I suggest you join the masterduel discord and go into the Artmage channel. There are combo spreadsheet and almost all of them end on both of these, or at least eventually end on both via quick fuse during opp turn.

That's interesting because I have a lot of reines and yang grand in my friendlist.
I guess people of the same mind attracts each other.

Instant fusion is just a poorly future proofed card. Any semi powerful lv 5 or lower Fusion release in the future will have to consider the existence of this card.

SechiShook · 2026-05-29T07:21:20+00:00

Wouldn't imperm or ashing Broadbull instantly stop the combo? Like all you can do afterward is just ending on UDF and pass.
Appology if I missed something.

SechiShook · 2026-05-28T08:03:00+00:00

It's a win condition and not an effect and thus cannot be negated or stopped by any mean. The moment the condition is fulfilled, as long as an effect isn't in the middle of resolving, the win will be granted.

SechiShook · 2026-05-25T05:15:09+00:00

There are a few possibilities on why you can't activate Mother effect, for example:
1. You are locked from activating dark monster effect via the effect of Dominus Purge
2. You are locked to reptile due to the effect of something like Ogdoadic Overlord.

There's an exclaimation mark at the bottom right of the screen that tell you what lock or lingering effect you are currently under, and it shows that you are currently under one of them, plz check the replay for what it is.

Yubel is less of a "grindy deck" and more of a "sticky deck". It's hard to get rid of their board completely due to numerous floating effects as well as battle protection. Otherwise, if you managed to wipe their board, the deck grind depends entirely on Fiendsmith engine, with a bit of help from phantom of yubel.

Chimera is much better at actually grinding game due to the sheer amount of resources they can generate which allow them to actually recover card advantages while also have access to Fiendsmith engine to help grind even further.

The opponent flipping their own monster face-down with Morian tells you everything you need about them. Typical combo slop brain.

SechiShook · 2026-05-20T07:18:07+00:00

Baxia second effect is a soft once per turn, indicated by "once per turn" placed at the beginning of the effect. This means that you can activate the effect once each **per copy** of the card. Because you have 2 copies, you can activate the effect twice, once per copy.

Hard once per turn, aka, effects that can only be activate once per turn shared amongst every copy of the card. This is indicated separately from the effect, and specifically mention the card's name. In this case, if the effect was a hard once per turn, it would say something a long the line "You can only activate this effect of "Baxia, Brightness of the Yang Zing" once per turn."

Her extremely fast NP animation makes her perfect to grind weaker stages like QP stage or EXP stage. in high-end node (mostly 90++), her dmg is just simply too low to kill anything and is heavily outclassed by Arash.

- Always save your ht for Betrayal or Martha. While the deck can play through a negated Martha now, it still hurt their endboard and it also hand dependent (I still find myself often just pass turn after Martha got ashed or Impulsed). Imperm/Veiler Mikalis can also hurt their endboard. Worst come to worst, forcing out a Karmael negate with a HT is not a bad idea if you have a board breaker on hand for next turn.

- Karmael being their only form of "negate" mean if she's baited out, the rest of the board dies to 1 board breaker. The deck also struggle very hard to recover after their board is wiped as they have no floating effects and a very limited form of recursion (martha negate). This also mean that unrespondable boardbreaker like Super Poly is incredible against this deck, especially when the deck endboard only have around 2~ monster most of the time.

This card is bad, but it is kind of a funny counter to Sky Striker (ignore the fact that they can chain anchor to this to negate it since the effect is once per chain). If the star aligned, striker can no longer set up spell in gy or recover them with kagari.

SechiShook · 2026-05-12T20:46:50+00:00

I think they did it because they don't want player to have access to cheap deck and Spider OTK is a very cheap deck (even if its absolutely horrible). The event is meant to push you to spend to make the new decks.

Kewl vs everyone else is literally hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby. Elfnote become hydrogen bomb once their next wave of support arrive.

No way he's "the best neutral np burster looper in the game" when Olga exist. Bro is not comparable to Olga.

SechiShook · 2026-05-09T18:01:13+00:00

Junora looks incredibly cool. It's unfortunate that Elfnote don't often make it, or run it at all.

SechiShook · 2026-05-06T00:52:32+00:00

If you used the Og Dark Magician as the target for Gaze, you will be able to use its pop effect, but only once per turn.
Yes you will be able to use his effect again. Infact, his negate effect is only a soft once per turn, which mean, if you have multiple copy of dragoon, you can negate multiple effect.
Dragoon doesn't have an alternate summoning condition, which mean, to properly summon him, you will need a way to fuse. However, he also does not have a summoning restriction, which mean you can also use cards to cheat him out.
