● Read the cards
● Lurk and read the archives
● Google your deck before you post it here. If your deck is/was competitive it will probably have topped an event
● Most games have single rounds or a best of three match; matches are encouraged as they teach you to make use of your side deck for tournament play
● If you want to improve take advice and improve by playtesting constantly.
● Don't dismiss suggestion you haven't tried, you never know what cuhrazee tech might work. You do NOT know everything.

>cherry-picking gay art

'no'

Yuya is more about Yuzu than anything though. Sora is like their pet.

Judai liked Johan more than Asuka.

Not even a mention of Overdrive Teleporter?

I didn't actually notice that they were gladiator beaats until 120. I think I may be retarded.

Yubel is a GIRL

More homos =/= homoerotic
A good looking straight guy will always turn gays on more than an ugly looking gay guy.

>none of the ABC runs Galaxy Soldier
So where do people get the idea that's it's a staple?

B-B-Boys aren't supposed to have such great hips!!!

I wish LV monsters were good enough to make a Silent petdeck.

isn't Mystic Swordsman good with ghostricks?

As I search Metal tops in ygodr, I also stumble upon 2-3 Galaxy Soldier ABC.
Maybe I'll post some when I see it later.

He might be okay.
I didn't see any of him on OCG tops though.
That's why I'm asking if there's other spicy tek that I missed.

>that hungry look on Soras face
Take me now fluffal boy! I'll be your candy~

It's not a staple, it's a variant. I wouldn't call Card of Demise a staple in Kozmos but you can still build a deck around it to some success if you so please.

this picture got me all hot and bothered

Any weebs care to translate?

Is Lightsworn still viable

I could tell from the first silhouette, but maybe that's just because i use them

No, clownsworn was viable until the damage juggler ban but that's it.

Care to post the full engine/tech?
3 Box of Friend, 1-2 Driver, etc? 2 Ultimaya?

>Gladiator Beasts were the most obnoxious deck of 2008-2009
>it was also expensive and running it would destroy friendships
>now it's 2016 and the deck is not even a petdeck, it's just complete shit.
What other decks are an example of bad aging?

Every deck made before Arc V

>Yuuya: It's twitching and twitching inside my pants...
>Sora: It felt really great, Yuuya. Yuuya: You can't hold it in anymore?
>Sora: You have such a cute voice. Let me hear it lots...

That's it, really.

x-saber

Thanks

Friends!

Atlanteans are still alive and kicking.

I don't see them top though.

2 tops in the last 3 months, more than any other pre-arc v deck.

leaks when

inzektors?

well they're focused around battling to get their effects so it's obvious they'd age bad when all other decks are just
>pop entirety of opponents board
>attack directly for game

>Arc-V has almost ended
>We still don't have a single card whose red and blue scales differ from each other

Inzektors are still good, the issue is that Hornet and Dragonfly are on the banlist.

Maybe that'll be the whole point of Genesis Omega Dragon and its anime counterpart. Scales that go from 1 to 12.

Ojamas?

I'm glad that stupid meme was BTFO. Pendulums as a mechanic are already confusing for retards, and yet more retards want to make it MORE confusing

Blackwings

I'm still mad over how fucking ugly Pendulum Dragon is.

Fuck off. Oddo Aizu is best dragon.

Not digging the whole archetype m8, just the default guy.

The upgrades and manga universe counterpart are much better looking than the classic main version.

That's not Crystal Wing.

It's not that bad. Rune-Eyes is worse.

Old and busted, Starve Venom is the new hotness.

>digging the whole archetype
*digging on the whole archetype

Starve Venom looks like ass.

Odd-Eyes Speed Dragon and Odd-Eyes Predator Dragon when?

So if your playing psy-frames and dont open the field spell do you just auto lose?

Supreme King Black Dragon, Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon

It also fucks Crystal Wing hard in the face.

>that ring on his back
Who started this trend with dragons? It just looks stupid on anything which is not Winged Dragon of Ra.

Most of the new Blue-Eyes look stupid anyway, except for Spirit

I can't argue with that.
The Spirit Dragons were the only rightly designed dragons and it also helps that they're the best dragons.
>we lost Ultimate Rares before this guy was imported.
TEWART

nah, the only good deck that really pulls that off now is mermail. This is the era of who can have the most negators on the field turn 1 (solemn, crystal wing, treatoad, siegfried etc) so their opponent can't play during turn 2 so you can kill them on turn 3.

>which is not Winged Dragon of Ra
Winged Dragon of Ra looks like shit though. That's some real nostalgia bias and genwun faggotry you've got going there.
That said I am pretty sure it has something to do with Shinto/Buddhist connotations to transcendence or something. And thus the ring on the back thing is something the Japanese often employ in one form or another when they're conveying the whole "ultimate" schtick of something. Or the "further beyond".

Can't blame the designers, to be honest, it's like the trillionth varation on the same fucking monster. Good luck making them look meaningfully different and not dumb.

dayum, i miss playing inzektors

>"The disciple of the ultimate wizard, Apprentice Illusion Magician!

I wonder what it's effect will be.

Instead of actually being good somehow, it will instead try to support the other DM/DMG cards that are already shit. And thus it itself will also be shit.
There is no saving them. But nostalgiafaggots will try to argue otherwise.

>Winged Dragon of Ra looks like shit though.
Wrong.
>And thus the ring on the back thing is something the Japanese often employ in one form or another when they're conveying the whole "ultimate" schtick of something. Or the "further beyond".
The Japanese have some weird beliefs in the superstitious.
Red-eyes Retro Dragon 2.0 all but confirmed.

>That's a blue eyes
What the fuck? I thought it was another form of Stardust Dragon for a second. It looks like BEWD got on a diet.

>not ZeXal

>If you have this card and "Palladium Oracle Mahad" in your hand, you win the Duel.

It's not a Blue-eyes, It's a Deep-eyes.
And yeah, Kaz just ripped Stardust's design and made into a whole new dragon for the movie.
Shame it's not as good as Stardust was.

The are pretty good imo they just need a small push I hope this card is it.

Zexal had Yuma hugging Astral while saying he loves him.
It's cool though, since Kaz designed Stardust.

>The are pretty good imo they just need a small push I hope this card is it.
It's an archetype of decoy dragons.
It was DoA with Lightning and Meteor Burst existing.
Not only that but Dark Magician himself loses to Twin Twister so unless this card protects S/Ts or does something to stop Armadeus effects those decks are staying shit.

Stupid effects that nobody will fall for and only one of them is Dark,making it even harder to fit them into the deck. What were they thinking with these girls?

What was the last monster that Kaz designed that isn't a DM, DMG or Blue-Eyes?

>Symphonic Warrior ABC
What.
How the hell they summon CDI with only 1 level 5?
Why have CDI and Nova in ED if it's only for Cherry targets?

It's top 8 from 91-man tournament. Pretty much legit.
ygodr.blog.jp/archives/1059356097.html

The Cubics.

Cubics.

>that nobody will fall for
You overestimate people.

Add Dark Doriado and it can be a good waifu deck like Possessed.

cyber-stein into chimeratech

Those girls were made to counter Kaiba's inability to read and to teach him about MUH NAKAMA.
Not their fault that they came out with ZA LIGHTNINGU existing.

If those people play like anime characters and do not read their opponents card effects they deserve to lose. There's no excuse to fall for any of the magician girl's tricks. Especially with all the removal in the game now. If this had been the Summoned Skull beatdown era they might of been a threat

That's just 1 scene though. As a whole ZeXal had the least homoeroticism going on.

ARC-V has zero to none.

Did Kaz design Neos or any of Judai's cards? Neos looks very bland and boring compared to the other aces in the franchise
