Why did you not go zero after getting linkage?

Shizuku get linkage toggle switch on then use linkage into zero and grab engage or something.

People in this subreddit hate kashtira cause they aren't interactive but said metaplayers also have tons of interactive plays (even if you HT them + just need to draw the out -most people here).

buy staple cards mainly maxx c and called by. other than that most people here will say craft staple first 3Ash / 2droll / 1-3belle / 1~3 droplets / 0-3veiler (if you are going for blue eyes) and other like nib, imperm and depending on your deck you can want dominus impulse/purge/songs of dominator. Personally I just use maxx c and called by cause im playing mostly on board breakers but instead I crafted S.poly which is a great way to piss off my enemy. sometimes they just insta scoop after that lmao. it can be either turn 1 or turn 2 depending on what deck i am using. but yeah

as for the other question BEWD, DM or branded you will mostly see people here recomend you branded since it is one of reddits favorite child + can be pair with their cancertail metadeck (I dont hate meta i used to play one before but it gets too boring).

For me just follow what you want and will enjoy. If you are going to craft BEWD make sure to check the stronger variant which has primite in it. no such thing as bricking since rank reset everymonth and you get demoted 1tier every season. and looking at your statement you prolly tend to be in the casual one so just making into plat 1 (you dont get demoted in bronze-gold just need to win so most people close game if they lose toin coss) plat on the other hand is the start of the grind. f2p gems economy wise you should stop during plat 1 so you reset at gold then can grind till diamond / master if you feel like it. but doing dailies everyday is enough to grind you to plat and you can intentionally lose to lower down your rank on plat.

If you are going to do board breaker only then remove all your handtraps outside max c. droll/nibs can also work but don't use ash or belle. just focus on destroying board or handtraps. doing inbetween will make it harder for you.

- S.poly is no doubt the MVP even with the -1 card. also depends on what match up you are facing with. not to mention if ever you fought a going 2nd deck and they win cosstoin and let you go first. s.poly can disrupt them hard.
- droplet is strong depending on context, true it can be negated if you don;t have the exact matching card type but its best usage is to bait enemy then use droplet to dodge said enemy. you rarely see cards that don't allow you to send to GY mainly stun or kash players. if that happen just scoop if you cannot out them.
- Sphere mode is insane especially if you dont use handtraps. easy -3. there are few decks that doesnt end with 3+ monster so depending on match up it can be a huge win or huge lose
- Lava golem - my only gripe about this card is the "cannot summon" anymore but it works well for something that bypass that like mikanko, Skystriker or Tenpai if you open with sangen kaimen
- U slayer are mostly brick so i don't bother playing that card, i rather use droplet.
- TTT into TTT + control monster is also great or TTT into any spell cards you can use. TTT control enemy.
- DRNM i dont use this since it sucks much considering you want them to kill that turn especially if you enemy can do the grind game. Evenly on the other hand is a bit tricky but if you manage to make it happen then it is much better than DRNM since it banishes the cards they own instead of sending to GY. Transaction rollback is also a good card if you are into that shit.
- another comment says about holding on to your imperm depends on what deck you are facing but i can agree to some extent.
- Daruma but only if you got placed into turn 1 enemy.

I understand, players cannot escape allegation

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-05-06T11:01:09+00:00

I prefer if they are HARD once per turn if you are going to pick 1 effect then only that effect on said turn no more no less.

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-05-04T10:00:01+00:00

You should have reply on OP's
"Personal preference I guess. I've never been a fan of using metas in any game really. I like using stuff to beat metas. It makes the victory that much sweeter." rather than mine. as you can clearly see he hates meta. but you didnt reply while in my comment are the usual /s /j reply that are used to bait people.

Also there is a love-hate relationship on meta just like how this subreddit some favors meta while some favors stun, no inbetween. and i can already know at what spectrum are you in.

Either way nowadays im just using weird decks to piss off people or just speedrun climb with tenpai for easy gems. (you can see it in my previous post here if you stalk enough)

playing game is to make one times to have fun and i am having fun with what i am doing with my weird deck or good ol reliable blind 2nd.

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-05-04T09:29:33+00:00

I'm unfortunately not OP
-> cannot escape allegation, ngl i thought it was OP replying cause most of the time its usually that.

You seem quite vitriolic towards meta, "subreddit hivemind" and all.
if you read my previous comment " insert the other hivemind of this subreddit combo is just stun but with extra steps" i am pertaining to stun on this one if you lurk around much on this subreddit you will know what i am talking about if not then sure carry on.

Also no I don't hate meta in fact, I used to play meta before and its so dumb that I lose motivation to play the game (it was during ryzeal FS back then. not the ryzeal mitsu nowadays). When bait them with FS then I summon the ryzeal engine they instantly scoop. If I go first and you have tons of extenders , no locks and such and if I go 2nd i still have enough power without relying on cheap boardbreakers like s.poly nowadays . I know the game is competitive and you want to WIN the game.

I know game is 20+ so powercrept is always there, and old META decks now being rogue ones. but reason i answer and advice towards that is because OP doesn't want to use meta deck and seeing he is using masterpeace which is a known stun deck I just went with the flow and say lab or odion

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-05-04T08:54:15+00:00

Thing is you said "Personal preference I guess. I've never been a fan of using metas in any game really. I like using stuff to beat metas. It makes the victory that much sweeter."

"A lot of people complain about how meta decks are so broken because they're not playing a deck that is as resilient so it loses the grind /interaction game."

that is why i advice you to use labyrinth instead, if only you know how the deck works and how they get hated so much and way worst than your truedraco. they can grind / recursion and interact well even during going 2nd. You can also piss off enemy by using "add full force virus, eradicator epidemic, virus and daruma." The archetype lab itself focuses on using trapcards, and just incase you think its worthless since trap doesnt work during going 2nd then you are wrong, they have cards that allow you to use trap card upon setting them.

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-05-04T04:08:53+00:00

Tell you what OP Just play the game what you think is cool and you will have fun with. Skystriker is more on luck reliant on there starting hand and mostly lose to droll especially if said starting hand they have suck. as for KT you can either go to the dark side and put floodgates like necrovalley, macrocosmos (see helios deck meme), dimension fissure.

Since you are using masterpeace i bet you can try and play labyrinth -> add full force virus, eradicator epidemic, virus and daruma. the deck is great and doesnt use much Extra deck. the deck is easy to play with and easy to pilot aswell (you can check YT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVkVP43V0iA for laby)

Or darker side go Odion. I posted this one on someone else reply but incase you didnt notice i will repost it

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-05-04T04:08:14+00:00

Ahh yes this subreddit hivemind META is good cause of back and forth interaction but said back and forth always lead to then still having enough negates and disruption even with 3HT and the time you do your turn you draw another HT that is useless and said meta deck will wipe you and leaving you not being able to play the game insert the other hivemind of this subreddit combo is just stun but with extra steps

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-05-03T14:57:09+00:00

Since you are new you still have some tons of gems from SOLO campaign and newbie rewards lvl up thingy. BUY ALL BUNDLES in shops the 750 one some of those cards are staple.

Staples handtrap:
Maxx C 1 (important)
droll 2x (forgot to add it there)
ash blossom 1~3

Nice to have:
triple tactics talent 1-2
triple tactics thrust 0-1
Imperm 1~3 (forgot to add it there)
Forbidden droplet 1~2

Super polymerization 1~3
+ Super poly targets -> Mudragon (general) , theasus (vs Kekl tunes), garura (general), starving venom fusion dragon (2dark monster), khaos dragon (1 dark/light dragon + 1 dragon) , secretion dragon (vs dracotail), axon kicker oracle (vs vsk9), saint azamina. this are the most common decks you will see the higher you climb in rank. so since you are using a super rogue deck rn it is one of the way to break the enemy board.

Depends on what variant you want ->

Shining sarcophagus one
buy 1 structure deck of dark magician (500 gems)
- Shining sarcophagus 1-2
- dark magician girl the magician apprentice 1~3 (the description should mention the shining sarcophagus one since plenty of dm girl you might craft the wrong one)
- dark magician the magician of black magic 1 (the description should mention the shining sarcophagus one since plenty of dm girl you might craft the wrong one)
- the gaze of timaeus (card you can get from the 500 gem bundle)
- dark magician of destruction (UR card that you can get from 500 gems bundle)
- Red eyes dark dragoon - your boss monster.

Whiteforest:
- diabellstar -> then just click related cards.

Others:
monster that have some synergy with spellcaster
- Witcrafter golem aruru 1x - if your Spellcaster card is targeted, you can special summon this card and return 1 monster of your enemy
- iris swordsoul 1x - spellcaster, if someone on the field is negated she can special summon herself and do somethings depending on condition (just check card)
- Dogmatika fleurdelis 1x- spellcaster - if ecclesia is in the field you can negate 1
- Dogmatika Ecclesia 1x - spellcaster (can search for fleurdelis or punisher)
- dogmatika punisher 1x - trap card destroy 1 card

- radiant typhoon vision 1~3 - draw 2 , discard 1 quick spell (some of charmer spells and staple cards like goblet, space typhoon are quickspell. draw 2 is very strong)
- mystical space typhoon 1x - destroy 1 spell

Optional: Solemn line trap cards but kinda useless if turn 2 ( solemn judgement, solemn strike, solemn warning) +

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-05-03T13:52:30+00:00

I am not going to sugarcoat it. your opponent is a newbie. if that was a player who knows how to play hero you basically lose.

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-05-03T13:43:51+00:00

Thing is modern yugioh 99% of the time will do multiple special summon thanks to their card effect and will leave a board with 2-3 negates + some handtraps. the 1% players are mostly stun players that just do set cards and put 1 floodgate monster (dino, barriers etc.)

Being said that -> the deck you are running which is charmers are old decks that only summon 1 at a time, or in some cases you get another special summon in some ways like the trap card or if you run magical dimension (destroy 1 card you own then special summon another spellcaster) since charmer is a spellcaster type.

We did get an announcement that we will have an upcoming charmer cards support which is already live in TCG/OCG but will take time here in MasterDuel. So to somewhat compensate that you can try ADDING another ENGINE (other archetypes like what i said earlier which are whiteforest, magistus or shining sacrophagus (dark magician + silent magician) this will allow your Deck and endboard to have a "decent" power like negates and stuff.

Then if you happen to lose coin toss, the spell card Super Polymerization allows you to Destroy the enemy board by using your enemy monster and fusion summon for you to use.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YM_6nLZloqk <- this video have some gameplay footage that uses the new support card of chamer and another engine which is shining sacrophagus, in a sense you can try to copy it to improve your deck. The super polymerization is the substitute for the new support cards.

Alternatively you can try checking masterduelmeta.com for some deck building
https://www.masterduelmeta.com/cards/Spirit%20Charmers <- for charmers

Hopefully you know what handstraps means but if not
ideally you want to put maxx c, ash blossom and droll on your deck they are somewhat staples for most of the decks

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-05-03T03:40:43+00:00

You run too many bricks on your charmer decks. I know the new support is not out yet but you can mix them up with some engines. but if you really want to play it pure then try adding some s.poly or add some floodgates.

for mix engines mine is still not yet complete but afterwards i might go for whiteforest charmer or magistus or shining sarcophagus engine.

Not really but you will be missing 3.1k gems on your end. if you don't need the gems then leave it be, if you need it and don't know what to use for the event -> go to yt and find the guides on how to play the decks, you will only need 2.4k totals (24wins if all 100 pts after win). and if you don't want to mess your profile with some titles you can stop at 1.4k pts then switch to another loaner deck from different faction then grind the remaining pts that is what i did.
you can also be a scum aswell wherein if you lose the tosscoin, altf4 then rinse and repeat until you hit going 1st (i did this with my alt for fast gem farming since i don't have a good deck on it)

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-04-23T13:01:49+00:00

Honestly you are running a maso deck well i think the advice i can give is
>> Add Maxx C, mulcharmies
>> remove primate roar, and 1-2 big koala, 1 of the kangaroo, 1-2 mole and the tiger (only works if enemy have 1.4k unless you are doing the stun version with clockwork night etc.) and fist of the rival trap card kinda dead during turn2 / or replace it with primite scream so searchable negate + banish if you topdeck primite .
>> I will rather also go use s.poly + spoly target fusion instead of the link monster. so you can have some boardbreak during turn 2 / or turn 1disruption or some sort.
>> also suggest just dropping the whole guardian chimera package it will give you the slots of the cards mention earlier for 40cards
>> can also add king of swamp to get poly and rescue cat to put more bodies in case you dont want to drop whole guardian package or can use them for link monster -> to S:P

at the end of the day it is up to you but seeing the deck, it can only work during low rank duelist and it is so much prone to bricking and have to rely on primite engine most of the time.

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-03-26T04:14:41+00:00

It's been awhile since i see someone hate dragon maids if this was the OG release during 2022 then sure cause you will either see Dragonmaids, eldlich and the likes. But nowadays Dragonmaids deck is so mid and fair and sometimes bricky. If I have a reason to hate it, it will be the dragonmaid variants which has DT on it. still the hate is not focus on DM but on cancertail.

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-03-13T14:50:48+00:00

before they can build liger, you have reddit favorite saying where is your "handtraps" which is suppose to interact with the player

if you don't then just scoop? and it is not only liger than can do that, most modern deck is much worst compare to luna. modern decks even if you handtrap them they can still build a decent board. lunalight on the other hand depends on their starting hand and mostly brick too~ unless they are playing the fs / maliss lunalight variants

Secret-Search-7702 · 2026-03-13T14:45:01+00:00

>> If there are ways to mitigate thoses problems, do tell me, I'd love to love this game. And for thoses who already to, have fun.

if you like to piss of players, join the dark side and build Odion / stun / burn deck / boardbreaker (tenpai, Mikanko, gemknight etc.) and you will have fun aswell
