● READ THE OP.
● 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, see the provided links above.
● 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, netdeck and playtest constantly.

First for ABC is tier 1 and by far the best deck in the game while Ancient Gear won't even be rogue. Stay mad shitters

Xth for Replaced ;-;

1st for Ancient Gear fags being so fucking retarded they think that their shitty deck totally shits on ABC, an actual top tier deck

If you wanna touch my giant buddy you gotta go through me

xth for waifus

Just a reminder that Fortress doesn't protect Chaos Giant, it can still die to shit like Dragon Buster, Kirin, Moonlight Rose, Rafflesia and other monster effects which go off on the opponent's turn.
Not really, you can still OTK with it and protect it and it takes less mats.

You rang?

xth for our guy

>he thinks he can get a R4NK out against a deck that runs 3 Solemn Strike, 1 Solemn Warning, 1 Vanity's Emptiness and has ABC Dragon Cucker every turn

Off yourself

Ancient Gear is gonna fucking steamroll Subterrors if they become meta in TCG. All of Tewarts archtypes are getting cucked by armades effs now.

Ancient gear cucks are as annoying as gravekeepers shitters when they got support.

necessary evil in today's world.

Just so you know, these posts are from retards who tried to come up with outs for a Giant with setup, failed and got bootyblasted, and one of them failed basic addition too, and are now trying to change the subject to impact on meta.

I think any AG fag knows that making chaos giant is already less consistent than ABC's answers to it and that AG won't suddenly overthrow the obvious #1 deck in the game, but that won't stop the strawman shitposts of "a-actually I meant" from butthurt failures.

What the actual fuck were they thinking when they made AtoZ Dragon Buster Cannon

>use ABC effect on R4NK
Is this actually considered a good play?
What can a R4NK do against your mighty ABC?

"Legacy support".

TCG Darklords W H E N

Same thing they were thinking when they made Red-eyes, Black Luster Soldier, Buster Blader, Dark Magician, Magnet Warriors, Magician Girls, Silents and Cubics.
Gotta get them Nostalgia bux.

When destiny soldiers comes out, be patient.

>well I striked it!
actually, I striked Dragon Buster first and did a Lord Omega loop to remove your hand :^)

>make it immune to S/T effects and an Armadeus
>it still loses to targeting monster effects.
Jobelisks deserved to be carded.

Is there some kind of list of what episodes are skippable in Arc-V? I heard the qualifying duels for the tournament are shit, and the thread's already said the synchro arc is horrid.

Isn't that how Shun beat it?

>thinks he can save his Strike for Dragon Buster
Have you ever even played against the deck? Unless you're playing stunshit yourself or drew multiple, you're not going to have the luxury of striking the final boss while ignoring the one or two R4NKs that come before it.

>Cubic
>nostalgia
Crimson Nova Trinity's summon is my favorite episode of DM

All of them

>while ignoring the one or two R4NKs that come before it.
I'm pretty sure I can ignore Tsukuyomi and GGX you summon to try putting ABC on field.

Watch 1-53, skip the rest.

yeah abc can totally make two r4nk t1, and always recover when you strike tsukuyomi
just netdeck it if you don't know how it works

Yes.

Arc-V fags deserved to be carded.

What would Ancient Gears need to be meta?

Not anymore ;)
But seriously, how the fuck Jobelisk defeat Xyz dimension when they have Castel and shit.

Anime effect doesn't Meteorburst or pierce, so Shun made it out alive by summoning Last Strix to gain LP before using Soul Shave next turn.

Good cards.

Obviously, they OTK before Castel even hits the field.
If you summoned Chaos Giant but didn't win in the same turn, you either fucked up, or you got outskilled.

>Fortress
>being capable of protecting Giant
ACADEMIA

the anime version did have the meteorburst effect, that's how it got through revolution falcon.

Who the fuck makes Tsukuyomi going second? Seriously, end your lives. Are you even top 1000 on ygopro?

>make Utopia or Castel
>you don't strike it
>it fucks your monster, I set 3 and end turn

>I make GGX because your field is shit
>you don't strike it
>I set 3 for another R4NK next turn

>you have only 1 set card
>Diamond Dire Wolf

I can even make Michael the discount ABC

SS from the graveyard, ignoring summoning conditions
searchable chaos fusion, which would just be a glorified overload

More good cards*
A 4.5k armades that can deal piercing damage and can attack every monster in the field is pretty good in my book

>If you summoned Chaos Giant but didn't win in the same turn, you either fucked up, or you got outskilled.
Or they got Shunposted to death.
I'm pretty sure Kaito also used Cipher Dragon to hijack Chaos Giant and then Cipher Interfere + Cipher Diffusion for game

>make a card hard to get out
>its worse than the pieces it uses to come out

It had an Armades effect, but only for the monster it battled with, not Meteorburst.
If it did, Shun activating Last Strix's effect would've been illegal as all shit.

It'd be a very genuine Shunpost

I thought you said you were making Dragon Buster.
Stop wasting oxygen, failure. Take an order from one of your betters.

>>its worse than the pieces it uses to come out
What are other examples of this?
HARD MODE : Nothing from GX

...

Cipher Dragon negates the effect of the monster you took control of, so Cipher Interfere on it would've been totally legit.

I actually want Kaito to get more duels.
What's the fucking points of Ciphers when right now they aren't even a deck? They're better suited to R4 spam with what little they have now than they are to summon their "boss" monster.
Which needs to have a RUM specifically designed with it in mind as well because fuck yes that's what the archetype REALLY needed

Anime version summoning condition is fucking horrendous.
I'm actually amazed that they can summon it at all. That Ancient Gear fusion to cheat it out is fucking amazing.

Not in anime universe.

Yeah, I'll make it after you panic and use it on the R4NK. Did you even read my post?

It's nostalgia support for a DM era card, so I guess it makes sense why it sucks. Why can Konami rarely make good nostalgia support?

is this card literally only used as extra material for ZA LIGHTNING?

...

>SS from the graveyard, ignoring summoning conditions
>same case as Level Modulation
Yeah. It's a pretty good card, alright.

>What's the fucking points of Ciphers when right now they aren't even a deck?
To give Blue-eyes a bigger rank 8 toolbox.

isnt the ruling on this card that the lv monster had to be summoned before hand or it can be summoned with this?

Literally just for extra stacking, individually it's worse than vanilla utopia.

>wake up
>Chaos Giant confirmed
>requirements generic enough to make it playable
WE'RE ALMOST SAVED LADS

Is this a scoop-worthy situation?

There's also this if you want to be a total manga fanboy since ZA LIGHTNING was meant to be the RUM version of this card.

So ABCs are just Qlis that special summon more often, right?

I think people prefer this in the slim chance you actually need to use the Raigeki effect.

>2510 attack

>more often
Qlis would special summon once per turn, if they even special summoned at all. ABCs are masturbation tier.

>No ancient gear pantheism/trade-in
>Saved

Come back when you have consistency.

Stay dead you jackass.
Pretty much, even if you r4 he'll banish it and then scramble Ball Buster for more r4 and Ball Buster again.

It was 2501 in the manga, Konami are pussies.

>main less than 5 Continuous Trap card
>Qli

oh right, since you opened card destruction and already have grave setup going second without tsukuyomi.
or definitely opened hangar, and gadget/thrasher, and A or B but not C, and A, B, or C meanwhile I opened exodia.
don't even bother with the "actually I meant"

>2501
imagine the memes

Since when do ABCs main traps?

Their traps are the Extra Deck monsters

>people unironically think Exciton SITLL deserves to be banned

Dog turned out to be pretty nice in print.

Actually I think this is the perfect time to return famigila :^)
>Ancient Gears getting draw spells
The only chance of that happening was in the SD but now I guess we have to rely on someone in the anime being more competent than jobelisks and using AGs for the deck to gain such consistency

shitty bait

Not a floodgate.

>Wait which Ancient Gear fusion got buffed

Can we ban ASF?

Can the dead people please stay that way?

Someone please banish Monster Reborn with Gold Sarcophagus and then attack these fuckers for game

>responding to dead guy
Please don't be that guy.

Who thinks ASF needs to stay in the game?

>What? I still haven't been booked for an appearance in Arc-V?

>the days have passed where this was a legitimate sacky comeback option
>the days have passed of Mind Controlling your opponent's Utopia and slapping Ray on it
I want to go back

No.

me because fuck pendulums.

Ultimate Moth retrain when?

ABC and Blue-Eyes players
Or alternatively, just unban Exciton Knight

>register in checkmate to try and play ranked
>3 hours later, confirmation email never popped up
>just now try to change my password to see if I can at least get an e-mail
>"This user is blocked"
WOOOW
I DIDN'T EVEN DO ANYTHING AND I'M BLOCKED?
BUGGED REGISTRATION MECHANICS
THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO

Maybe if you could set cards in your Pendulum Zones.

>only relevant against Pendulum
And people said that Pendulum is the worst mechanic.

No thanks, I enjoy being alive again

>placing cards in your pendulum zones is refered to as "setting the scales"
>you're not actually setting cards
wtf i hate yuya now?

Watch the finals of YCS Rimini and that duel in Worlds and tell me if this card can stay.
It pretty much just wins games on its own.

t. someone who never played Pendulum

Seriously, if you actually go and play a Pendulum deck you'll realize they're not actually that horrible, except maybe Metalfoes and Majespecter, but that's the same with all no YGO allowed stun decks.

It is pretty shit, the only thing it's good for is buffing other mechanics like xyz and fusion, and it doesn't even do that very well.

Have you tried to go into random room before trying to changes the password?

Never.

I never got any confirmation e-mail
