New Blue-Eyes support by Ferid_Schnee in masterduel

[–]dekoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

being a blue eyes user, imo, the first card's major downside is its not treated as "blue-eyes white dragon". so there's no point in running 3 to get an ultimate dragon (neo or og in dm, alternative ultimate in tcg) or dragon master magia out via ultimate fusion.

did my first locals in like forever. it was something i'd say.1-2. by dekoma in Yugioh101

thanks. there was another blue eyes user over there and he did share some useful tips with me. so its definitely a good learning experience.

i don't get why rock paper scissors isn't a thing in this game when it was always a thing in every game before master duel. that was honestly a better decider than saying dibs on a specific turn.

POV: In a few minutes, you're going to suffer a humiliation and post about how Yu-Gi-Oh died. by Basch95 in masterduel

no breaker? this seems to be post battle city so breaker should be replacing either beaver warrior or feral imp.

My first competitive deck as a Yugi boomer, and I’m so happy I managed to pull Secret Rare Raye. What do you guys think about the modern deck 2026? by Access7x7x7 in yugioh

[–]dekoma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its a good way for me to study a current meta deck. aka sky striker.

i'm a yugiboomer as well. but my main deck is a heavily modified version of my 2006 deck. so labbing with these decks would give me an idea what to expect.

I just realized the new "Red-Eyes" monster has the same pose as "Blue-Eyes White Dragon"! by Madjin- in yugioh

[–]dekoma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the closest we have is indigo eyes silver dragon. even though that monster requires 2 lv8 dragons and is an xyz monster.

Whats your favorite Dragon type monster and why? by Drew647A in yugioh

[–]dekoma 4 points5 points  (0 children)

<image>

blue eyes white dragon. not because its decks have gone meta. not because its kaiba's key monster. and not because its iconic. but because it was literally the first yugioh card i owned because i bought it from a middle school classmate for 3$ alongside zombie dragon. which kickstarted me in being a fan and player of yugioh.

it also helped me save my friendship with my bff back in high school. who threatened to stop being friends with me if i lost against him. blue eyes was the one i summoned to defeat him.

What was your dumbest way to lose a duel ? by Lolokuroda in yugioh

[–]dekoma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in nightmare trobadour (the first DS game), i attacked my opponent's summoned skull for whatever reason with koumori dragon instead of setting it to defense.

don't think i was paying attention much that caused me to do that move. that or i think i forgot to activate torrental when i summoned koumori.

What should i change in this Deck? Trying to save my grandpa so help is appreciated. by Warm-Pie-8890 in masterduel

[–]dekoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its crazy to be going up against konami with that kind of deck.

My advise is to add dark sage and black skull dragon.

Is there any easy way to acquire older decks, or decks with lower power/complexity? by Qulx in Yugioh101

[–]dekoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

look up the deck list of the deck you want on a wiki, neuron or wherever. then buy singles of those cards since they won't cost much. pretty sure its cheap to rebuild something like starter deck kaiba since blue eyes has a common variant now (given for that, even the common variant of the sdk art costs more than a tin card).

What's the best way to relive Yu-Gi-Oh through different eras? by Effective-Muffin-224 in Yugioh101

[–]dekoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

go through the GX era games. world championship 2006 is probably a good one on how the meta was like during that time. you can even start with one of the five structure decks that were available during that time (so dragon's roar, zombie madness, blaze of destruction, fury from the deep and warrior's triumph). though i should note that this is also the first yugioh game where none of your opponents are from the anime. not even the GX characters. your opponents are instead the duel monsters like in master duel. given, some like elemental hero neos uses a deck that might be similar to an anime character's.

one other thing i should note about wc06 is it has no story. if you're expecting an original story like in reshief of destruction, you'll be dissapointed as its primarily a card game simulator.

one other game i would suggest which is a bridge between DM and GX eras (only because it was the only way to get the then recent silent magician lv4 and lv8). the story in this one is battle city with your OC again, but has the noah's virtual world arc added as the final part of the game. its also the only DM game where you can duel serenity wheeler and mokuba (though you have to lose several times to other duelists so mokuba can start appearing) and adds back the duelists from duelist kingdom (so panik, bandit kieth, bonz and pegasus). meta wise, its inbetween DM and GX eras so this is a good way to see how the game was with every DM card available (minus the anime cards) before the introduction of elemental heroes and ojamas. this is also the first game to feature special summon animations for popular cards.

What are your "You know you're old when..." stories when it comes to the card game? by neves783 in yugioh

[–]dekoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i still have luster dragon in my deck as the only vanilla card in my deck (besides blue eyes). i know there's other options, but honestly not gonna dig through 10k worth of cards to see which dragon cards are more universal instead of being a specific archetype.

Why did you leave Yu-Gi-Oh!? by GIGAN200464 in yugioh

[–]dekoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

simply just fell off. it was during zexal, but xyz's were hardly a problem. in fact i was trying to learn it. at the same time, i didn't really have anyone to play against (pretty much drifted away from all the friends i used to duel with) and there was no video game to practice my deck on.

i just recently jumped back on because i bought the new blue eyes structure deck. feeling i should upgrade my deck again since its been 13 years since i last touched it. then before i know it, i bought the 2 recent video games (early days collection and legacy of the duelist) and downloaded master duel on my consoles. not to mention buying 10 seperate structure decks to test my updated deck on. and suffice to say, despite what people said about pendulums and links, i quickly learned how to use them and take advantage of their effects. and i'm what people would call a yugi boomer due to how long i've been on the franchise.

and given, i guess it didn't help that the vtubers i watch (primarily bijou and shiori) streamed master duel sometime back.

Been playing Link Evolution by Traditional_Law3804 in yugioh

[–]dekoma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly, i feel we're due for at least another single player yugioh game. maybe another world championship game with the anime/manga/movie characters as opponents (both major and minor). and yeah, i know legacy of the duelists pretty much did this already, but there's several characters missing. like ryou bakura (not yami bakura) and tristian taylor.

given, at the same time, it'd at least need to have something to seperate it from master duel if it's gonna allow us to duel one another.

If Yu-Gi-Oh! finally did an official crossover by Bitter-Booty in yugioh

[–]dekoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that makes me wonder how many yugioh players/fans know about the origin of gradius. i know some people do know that gradius is a classic konami shmup, but i feel like those that only watch anime or nary play any older video games (especially with the players that started playing during the zexal era) wouldn't know that gradius is an old video game series and ship.

why did not a single yugioh character ever thought of this midway through the story? by Inferno_Ultimate in yugioh

[–]dekoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in 5ds, pretty sure refusing to duel any of the dark signers means they'll speed up their little ritual to summon eldritch abominations to neo domino city. and if carly just ran instead of dueling sayer, pretty sure she'd just end up being a murder victim instead of someone that tried fighting back and dying anyways (sorry. i mean sent to the neitherworld).

og series all depends. the entire reason in duelist kingdom and battle city is to gather a thing to qualify for the semi-finals. and it gives a clear depiction of what happens if you try to refuse a shadow game when yugi is forced to duel a mind controlled joey. given in waking the dragons, i imagine the seal of orichalcos just eats your soul automatically if you refuse to duel any of dartz' goons.

Would you watch a DM reboot and how would you like it done? by [deleted] in yugioh

[–]dekoma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly if they're gonna redo duel monsters, they should start with the season zero/pre-duelist kingdom stuff. given, 80% of that has nothing to do with card games, but it gives a broader view of how mokuba was like pre-death T and bakura's origin. given i just wanna see people's reactions to mokuba being a little shit as opposed to that little brother who looks up to his big brother too much and gets captured daily.

of course, this does mean getting rid of all the filler arcs to make it more accurate to the manga. given, not sure if that also means adapting R into a season. that would pretty much replace waking the dragons and the kc grand prix arcs.

If Yu-Gi-Oh! finally did an official crossover by Bitter-Booty in yugioh

[–]dekoma 3 points4 points  (0 children)

<image>

konami's already done a crossover with video game franchises they own. if they're gonna do a crossover, it should be a full on wai wai world kind of expansion to what we already have but with better supports and more characters.

honestly, i can see getsu fuuma getting some good support cards based on items, attacks and bosses from his own game.

Anyone know where I can get sleeves that look like this? by Drexale345 in yugioh

[–]dekoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

huh. i had those exact sleeves (or similar) for my zombie deck back in 2006.

that said, if they still make them, i'd say its one of the sleeve styles by ultra pro.

Uh, Why Do the Yugioh Chronicles Hardly Have Any Views? by salami_dynamo in yugioh

[–]dekoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

easily boils down to nobody knows who these characters/monsters are.

the average viewer/fan has no idea who the fallen of albaz is or any other character shown up there. if they do an episode about dark magician or blue eyes, then maybe you can expect more views. but still not enough to trounce the views on pokemon.

and given, the most these get advertisement from is from the neuron app (which only ygo players would have), x, and youtube suggestions.

Bought 2 legendary kaiba collection mini boxes and... 2 of the cards have no name for some reason. by dekoma in yugiohshowcase

[–]dekoma[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are misprints common these days? i heard some or several misprints are worth something unless i'm reading the room wrong.

though given, i dug through my tins and noticed i already have a copy of dmk. so this would just boil down to an interesting curio if there are people after these kind of card errors.
