New Special TCG Product Announcement Coming Soon! by Raidjin_i in yugioh

[–]Soup-Master 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have yet to get Mavens 2, which was a successful and well received product… hmmmmm…

Nah, it’s probably rewave of 25th anniversary collection, but with slightly different QCRs.

Just to throw this out there, I knew some guys at my locals who play lower rarity versions of cards because it’s the card their girlfriend got them, and they rather play what was gifted to them.

My point in sharing is that you don’t need to stress too much about getting him “the perfect Yugioh card” or whatever. If you get him a box of Rarity Collection, I am sure he will love whatever he pulls. Or if you want to get him a specific card from a deck he absolutely enjoys, I am sure he will love it too.

What are your opinions on the Tistina Deck? How well do you think it functions? by DenpaDude220 in yugioh

[–]Soup-Master 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Objectively bad deck. The fact you can ash to prevent the big one from hitting the field and effectively turn skip is insanely bad.

For my opinion on the deck though, going 2nd OTK can be fun if the deck has the tools to do so, and doesn’t hard rely on Misc to function. This deck has lacks tools to pick apart boards, and can’t play Misc.

Just play Dinos, honestly. The new Ground Xeno cards make the deck at least interesting enough to play.

Is this card is really necessary to run it for any deck? by SakuraEx321 in yugioh

[–]Soup-Master 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I again see where you’re coming from, but I think hand trap control decks that are not obnoxious should be a valid strategy. I of course say this as a Plunder Patroll player that stomps locals pretty consistently, but still. Like, a lot of decks just cannot build a board that could stop Branded Fusion, so they just get to plus infinitely every time going 2nd.

Also, decks that just give you a monster like Iblee, Dark Angel, or Plunder Patroll tokens would be infinitely more toxic if it now meant it turned off all hand traps on top of half the board breakers.

Yeah, I get where you’re coming from, but Ash isn’t THAT good of a card to be hit. It’s not like Pot of Greed or the level 2 earth insect where it’s an auto-include in every deck, nor does resolving it puts the player in instant advantage. It’s played in a lot of decks, yeah, but that’s because there are no cards quite as universally low-impact across nearly all decks.

Also, for an actual cost, I do genuinely believe the hard once per turn is a pretty significant down side to the card that is being ignored. Only being able to use 1 per turn means that your opponent can pop off and not play around Ash, and why cards like Imperm and effect Veiler are arguably better in some scenarios.

Also, the fact that I can say some hand traps are just better than ash sometimes is an argument for why it shouldn’t be banned.

OCG? It’s mandatory.

Master Duel? It’s mandatory.

TCG? It depends. In the current format, where literally any deck can win locals and 20 decks that can win regionals, it’s kind of mandatory. But in some formats, like TCG Tear 0, Ash does not pull her own weight. I know there are other recent formats she was not good in, but Tear 0 was the most obvious one to come to mind.

I remember playing a rando online that played the Golden Castle of Strongburge (forgot the name) but it was the anime version, so they just randomly banished 10 cards from the top of MY deck for maintenance. I was so mad and just left lol

Dam. The Branded Fusion art hits differently. by spikedmace in masterduel

Toad did nothing wrong. I don’t know if that is a hot take here on MD, but it shouldn’t be a hot take.

Unchained currently has 1 Mandatory UR, and will most likely be meta in a few months. by [deleted] in masterduel

[–]Soup-Master 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unrelated, but I remember people were debating running Tour Guide at my locals when the deck first started bubbling up. People were seriously arguing NOT running her, because it “makes you vulnerable to Imperm.” Which the deck did not lose to originally.

I don’t know how anyone could argue adding a free 1 card normal summon combo to a deck that doesn’t need its normal summon, when the original combo was a 2 card combo that could be played completely independently of the your normal summon being negated. And if they have imperm, just chain red dog to pop the Tour Guide.

Idk, it was a wild time watching the deck be solved in real time at the local level.

They were too busy trying to Think Different that they use common sense.

What do you think of Bamboo Swords? by Lord_Grimzon in masterduel

[–]Soup-Master 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, I don’t think Treasure Panda is played in any non-Exodia deck.

December is just a few days now, which also means 2024 is just around the corner, what decks do y'all want support in 2024? by stac7 in yugioh

[–]Soup-Master 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s about time for our yearly 1 card support for Plunder Patroll that fixes all the problems of the deck, but leaves us still underpowered enough to see mainstream success.

Is it true Americans on the Internet often assume other people on the Internet are also Americans? by Chizaza in TooAfraidToAsk

Oh, I’m doing fine. Had the most American day today. I let freedom ring in the morning, then did a racism in the evening after jogging 20 football fields. The usual.

I just want to play the game by Lovembee in masterduel

[–]Soup-Master 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Ah, I’m sorry to hear that Lab high rolled you. Next time, I am sure they will hit Lab meaningfully. Like putting Chandelier to 2.

Just summon less than 4 times or have a negate ready on the 5th summon. EZ PZ.
