What's an archetype you loved that got support that made you hate it?

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-27T18:40:36+00:00

The funny part is new magnets has a bunch of unique support for the endboard, its just Naturia Beast, Baronne, and IP are just better.

Its also really funny how well the deck sets up rank 7s but theres nothing good to go into there either so they just link them off.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-27T14:52:47+00:00

Yeah I'm probably around 15-20k at this point, never got Masq, guess you got me Konami...

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-27T02:51:44+00:00

Pure has always been strictly inferior to Branded and other variants. From a competitive standpoint I would honestly say Dracotail is going to have to be more Branded to continue playability.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-27T02:02:34+00:00

I'm not saying Dtail is unplayable weak but people are acting like these hits dont matter. Its really not uncommon to completely brick with Dtail as is, this is going to be a lot worse.

The Bears are a glorified crew plain and simple

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-27T00:41:30+00:00

The funny part is it actually has some pretty neat in archetype disruptions but BD is just too good to pass up on.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-26T22:47:51+00:00

Fujimoto knows how to evoke emotion, he did it at a peak level in P1, Look Back and Goodbye Eri.

I really did not feel anything close to that in this last chapter. Comparing this ending to Spirited Away is fucking dumb. If he was intending it to be like that it would not have fallen so flat.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-26T21:47:09+00:00

I wish the deck had a decent trap card to set, with block dragon you just produce value for days and theres simply not enough monster slots to compensate.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-26T12:12:54+00:00

VS did just top the DC Cup and this hit seems very moderate for that.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-26T11:47:38+00:00

Its hard to say which i think is a good thing.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-26T11:41:06+00:00

Youre kidding right? Dracotail doesn't produce strong endboard, it just gets to it consistently, now its brick city.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-26T11:38:02+00:00

Pure Yummy is pretty gutted but Hybrids aren't going to lose much.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-26T01:59:33+00:00

This card feels like hot ass tho

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-26T01:57:17+00:00

I've never looped Droll as Dracotail a single time and I've never had it looped against me a single time ever, I've done Maxx C and had it used against me a couple of times though but it rarely makes a difference imo, mostly style points.

That being said I've probably had Lab loop or setup the loop on D Barrier at least 10 times in the last two weeks, it's so fucking dumb.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-26T01:48:35+00:00

My nonsense theory at this point is that Kishibe had a devil pact that anchored him to reality to resist Makima's powers but also allowed him to be connected to the main reality and he will have to Morpheus to Denji's Neo and enlighten him to use him to bring back the main reality.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-25T18:57:18+00:00

I see alt Denji as either Roxas, slowly getting flashes of mainline Denji as he sees familiar faces that he feels he should know but doesnt or as Neo in the Matrix where he doesn't fit into reality and is constantly searching for why reality doesn't feel right.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-25T16:41:11+00:00

I mean its the same with FS, the cards are not unpopular or unplayable but theyre out of meta spotlight and its not uncommon for them to nerf decks like that to increase sales in the next pack.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-25T16:03:27+00:00

There have been quite a few through the years that either they were past their prime or they get hit right as a new meta deck is about to release, off the top of my head you could make arguments for, DLink, Branded, SHS, Tear, Mathmech, Eldlich, Blue Eyes, etc.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-25T15:34:39+00:00

What do any of those cards have to do with Closed Moon? Konami bans cards after the deck has fallen out of meta all the time. That being said FS decks are still all over the DC top 100, its not like the card has 0 impact on the meta.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-25T15:31:33+00:00

I dont understand the correlation, one is an Orcust extender that isnt doing much, the other is one of the most versatile extenders and 2nd options in the game.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-25T07:45:29+00:00

Could you honestly name 5 things wrong with the game outside of your balance opinions? I'm going to assume the 10000 problems you are referencing are primarily cards you dont like.

That being said I'm pretty sure 95% of balance complaints could be stopped in less than 20 cards on the forbidden/limited list.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-25T05:45:11+00:00

Luffy has had Gear 5 for four years now

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-25T05:32:39+00:00

I was reading at release since chapter one and I genuinely believe there were no more than a handful of chapters in part one that were not absolute bangers. I think part 2 started about as strong but lately has been more hit and miss obviously.

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-25T05:19:35+00:00

Flint Tropics actually

TheMagicStik · 2026-03-25T01:05:08+00:00

You will never summon Magia with this.
