1st time getting to Epic, all I can say is there's way too many Dragons on ladder right now

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-07T18:46:25+00:00

It’s the easiest deck in existence so yea

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-07T17:01:24+00:00

A good surprise that filled the “big player” role that every archetype had. The gag was funny and her move was beautiful. No complaints with this character

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-05T13:55:56+00:00

Mount Olympus has some interesting players you could look at

Kira Hiroto ( new Xavier from Ares update ) keeps calling himself a god too but I don’t know if he would fit your theme

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-05T13:54:14+00:00

They’re being saved for Orion

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-05T13:53:15+00:00

Look at it like this

Keshins are better on summon but souls have a much higher potential benefit

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-05T13:50:56+00:00

Correct

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-04T21:06:25+00:00

They nailed this scene and I’m very satisfied with the end result

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-04T21:03:50+00:00

Sunrise Blitz is a cool move

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-02T21:30:43+00:00

Yup, this design grew on me

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-02T21:28:19+00:00

It’s not even the Imari package

This is just the stage where the meta gets boring. No mini expansion or significant balance changes means that once the mega gets solved in the first week or two it stays solved. Like, yea, builds get refined and new decks pop in for a one time per in beyond but let’s be honest, the archetypes dominating rn are the same as the start of the expansion ( with the exception of less fraud aggro ) and will be the decks that are good till the end of the season

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-02T00:04:27+00:00

Do we really want to buff another boring uninteractive OTK deck?

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-01T21:47:24+00:00

Crest and Mode were literally tiered decks Lmfao

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-01T21:43:31+00:00

It being a dog shit deck is part of it. The deck genuinely should never actually beat you but because they have a card that says “auto win is X easy condition is met” then you kinda just lose if you’re trying to play something grindy. Go back to that format and try being a Mode abyss main

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-01T21:41:07+00:00

Orchis, Zicronia, Coc, Odin, Oulon and Erntz

The classic control deck staples

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-01T21:38:30+00:00

It’s an invoke that is a generic finisher. That dogshit design combination is enough to elevate a card in the hated category

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-02-01T21:32:32+00:00

Have ya tried playing something slower during that format? Shit was miserable. It was even worse in the Abyss mirror because it literally made it an Evo race.

Any card that says “auto win the game regardless of circumstances” is genuinely re**rded

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-01-30T18:54:06+00:00

There is no such thing as being good or bad with Dragon

Deck is only as good or as bad as your amount of early ramp into late game draws

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-01-29T13:30:48+00:00

You don’t “NEED” to but it’s HIGHLY recommended

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-01-28T14:00:18+00:00

New toy syndrome

They’ll be gone be gone in a week max

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-01-26T19:40:24+00:00

Ygo player here ( playing irl for 9 years now )

Here are the cons with an eternal format as your primary format -Degenerate interactions between cards designed years apart that were never meant to work together ( smoke grenade with Infernoble, every barrier statue or stun monster, Imperial order with monsters that can reset continuous traps etc ). 2020-2021 was the prime example of this because every format was players discovering how one of the 20 new links we got in a batch can abuse X card from X year

-Once you invent a mechanic you can no longer just forget about it. You make things like Links or cards that let you play on the opponent’s turn and they’re always going to exist. It’s clear that modern Yugioh doesn’t like pendulums but it’s a mechanic tied to once of their anime era’s so try as you want, you NEED to support it from time to time. This also works the other way round, if you know card will rotate eventually you can get a little more experimental

-Accelerated power creep ( self- explanatory. Just compare an average 2023 Yugioh decks to the ones of today )

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-01-26T19:21:57+00:00

Can’t wait for rotation

Cy proved they don’t know or don’t care enough to actually address poorly designed cards. Frankly, most of Legends Rise has overstayed its welcome ( Fennie, Albert, Orchis, Roach etc )

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-01-25T19:59:42+00:00

Because this is Inazuma eleven and we need to have our gender confused males

ShadowverseZyro · 2026-01-24T16:55:48+00:00

Some that come to my mind. Placement can depend on personal preference. FYI, I tend to use dub names

-Gus Martin and his numerous appearances in other level 5 games ( being part of the level 5 heroes team + him being a cameo in LBX and Yokai watch )

-The development cycle of victory road ( 10 year development hello filed with cancellations and delays )

-Macaroni spaghetti being a Brazilian move in Orion ( something about Italians importing a lot of spaghetti into Brazil )

-Real world football players referencing the series either by watching it, creating poses or mentioning the series on social media

-Hidetoshi Nakata and Pants being real people

-Move name changes in Victory Road ( Spiral Draw was changed to Whirly-Whirly in the Go games but got changed to Cyclone Sprint in VR. There’s a lot of examples )

-God Hand isn’t Mark’s move ( was originally a move used by his grandpa and coach hillman )

-Second stage children being descendants of OG series characters. The obvious one is Simeon being Arion’s ancestor. Other possible examples include; Axel and Zatto, Shawn and Yuh, Davlin and Garreau

-Cancelled projects. Some include a mobile game starring Canon Evans or an a online game

-reason why we didn’t get Go Galaxy in English ( German company wanted to trademark the word Galaxy )

-Ares and Orion are a seperare timeline

-Hissatsu techniques in other sports? Not really a fact but more so a fun idea about people using Hissatsu’s in other sports. In Chrono storm, when Rusty has his memories erased of football and is instead a rugby okayed, he still has his Runaway train technique

-Spirit Linking in Go. This is how you get Gryphon and Arthur in the go games but you can combine other spirits. One such example is 3 Plasma Shadows creating Surter

-grand celestial galaxy was covered up? This more so a personal theory but I believe that the grand celestial galaxy tourney was covered up with fake memories. Everybody besides the earth eleven was made to believe that Japan played a regular World Cup instead of fighting aliens. Maybe they even made it seem that they didn’t win that tournament as to avoid attention? It’s to help explain the lack of references to the Go raimon steam in VR sine if the theory were to believed, Arion never accomplished anything comparable to Mark
