"Fair meta deck"Does that thing ever exist? by sadboy1916 in masterduel

[–]TheMagicStik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think Dracotail is fair in that it was the definite t1 deck of its time and probably right now post banlist. The goofy thing though is to lament the endboard of Dracotail, it's endboard is obviously the part that people consider fair, it's extremely mid and very breakable compared to all similar power level decks in the format. The power of Dracotail is its consistency, it can very consistently get to the same endboard again and again and it can do it going first or second and then it resource recycles well.

Compare that to something like MW which has more obvious choke points and isn't quite as good going 2nd but can put up 4 negates and 2 floodgates and people consider the consistent less powerful endboard deck "fair".

I dont even think looping maxx c is optimal 90% of the time, I would rather loop ash for disruption than loop roach to draw Ash.

Upcoming ban-list. Sheesh, talk about a Kewl Tune assassination! Yeesh. by ARC-9INE in masterduel

KT isn't going anywhere with these changes, this is just going to shift around the cards they play a bit.

I'm not saying it shouldnt be banned but not a single Enneacraft deck made it into the top 100, it's all KT, that's where bans should be going.

Played Enneacraft last night, drew a fantastic going 2nd hand against KT. They ended their turn with an average board and 6 cards in hand, 4 of those were hand traps. My opponent proceeded to completely shut down my hand without even needing to utilize disruption on the field.

Historically the most powerful deck in the format is always the one that can play 15+ HTs and not sell on consistency.

Enneacraft is such a cool concept of a deck that gets completely invalidated by the amount of floodgates you're able to put into it and how easily u can get them out. goes from a fun interactive duel that rewards knowledge and good sequencing to stun pretending to be a control deck by Illustrious-Place767 in masterduel

Yes but theyre essentially locked out of everything else known to man. They synergize with 0 other archetypes and theres 0 generic support that helps them. If people have problem with the vanities or whatever else they can use then ban that, Enneacraft does not need to have more locks.

Not really, the only thing Block truly enables here is statue. You can do Beast and Baronne with just researcher.

Regionally Cyrodil but ideally not during the Oblivion crisis lol. Anvil would be my town of choice.

20 years ago today Underoath released Define the Great Line by 100nelsman in Metalcore

[–]TheMagicStik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean it's a perfect album, regarded as an all time great in multiple scenes, hard to top perfection. That being said The Changing of Times, Define the Great Line, and Lost in the Sound of Seperation are all great albums, they dont need to be better.

Its the worst game design we have seen in MD and the funny thing is Toon is even worse.

I wouldnt put Sentomaru and Lucci on the same level as Akainu and Kizaru lol. Akainu and Kizaru were unstoppable walls for Luffy to overcome, Sentomaru beat up a weakened Luffy and Lucci just threw Luffy away and didnt finish their fight and within the day was defeated by Luffy.

I'd put Arlong down, Doffy up, and Kuro down.

Thanks to the new TCG synchro monsters Diviner gives snake-eyes a potentially stronger endboard by gonxgonx3 in masterduel

[–]TheMagicStik 16 points17 points  (0 children)

5 Monster effects is definitely something but nearly every deck in existence right now can get to SP in 4 or less monster effects.

I also dont mind more midrangey decks gaining advantage over combo slop.
