TWO WHOLE NEW CARDS

People like me who missed the event will be able to play AG too. And at least the cards they're giving are playable, Chazz and Zane had 0 good card.

this is the real AG giga nigga

Does this look good for now

...

What's in the mystery box?

Got any king of the swamps?

XOF posted on reddiit that the three new cards where Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem, Biofalcon and Break! Draw!

>Dino control with mindscan
For what purpose?

Maybe Cybernetic Fusion Support will finally be playable ?

>want to use destruction swordmaster
>Emblem of dragon destroyer doesn't search

Literally the only thing stopping me fucking Konami reeeee

Yeah that's a big flaw in the card. It's only buster blader on the field.

Mind Scan

Why is Balance the best skill for gladiator beasts?

Why not just play a standard control deck then? Why dinos?

>Always get a disconect when you're winning against a superior deck
mmmmh

Never starting with a brick hand is nice.

Ultimate ancient gear golem is my wife!

I always hold my backrow as long as possible to the point of getting into low as fuck LPs (150 last combat) before using it. Sure, it seems to pay off very well, because people start ignoring it thinking it might not be something good because I didn't use it so far, but some day I'm going to run out of luck

You're just gonna get fucked over by Mirror Wall broseph, happens to me all the time

Just means you're using pleb back row that can't be used in main phase like WOD / SRH.

>floodgate
>pleb back row
teach me, user

>Vagabond starts with 3 monsters
>one of them is Lava Golem

Super Jaden when? He's among the few characters in this game who could drop cards that can make HEROes tier 1 at best if he ever goes Chad. Electrum, E-Call,Stratos,Winged Kuriboh LVL10, Blade Edge, New fusions, HERO Signal Grand Mole there's many possibilties.

Floodgate is pleb tier though.

You can't level down from 5, 10 and 15, right?

Yes.

Super Jaden will add shining flare wingman. Super Aster will add his shitty E Heroes like phoenix enforcer.

could Japan please do something about their goddamn connection errors?!

Is there any way to get more komodo dragons right now? I only have 1.

>mind scan lava golem GB
classic stinky japanese

Tickets

>When Bakura can only steal a 300/300 monster from your side of the field with his Darknecrofear and that monsters ends becoming his demise when you change his battlepossition
Good lord that was close, we ended with 3 cards on each deck

What does your gb deck look like?

>Gladiator beasts
>One isn't a beast

Fish is fresh.

pretty standard, AMA is a godsend in the mirror

Dark Law when?

Heyo!new player here
I read the pastebin and it told me that i shoul post my id here for the vagabond thing, and i should send the 1 card challenge in exchange, is that correct?
Well, here's my ID:
571-997-292

Which character are you using for Balance? I'm using Aster

Just put in Absolute Zero.

Kaiba too bad chazz doesn't get balance

>Futo poster
Sent

this is the third fucking time in a row that vagabond is using a glad beast deck, it's getting out of control.

thanks
will send the vagabond whenever he start showing up

/dlg/ kc cup when

So, I reached lv10, and here are my experiences so far:
Way more than half the decks I faced were GB and REz, a couple of burn, a single Ancient Gear, a couple of Dark Magician ones. Also 0 dinos.

It looks to me like Destiny Draw is a better Skill for Dark Magician decks than Master of Magicians. Plus I haven't fully leveled up Yugi or unlocked all of his skills, unlike Arkana, so I'm going with it instead.

Oddly enough I haven't faced rez, burn or gear yet
have faced gb, dm & dino tho

also faced exodia & magnets

I want Elemental HERO Shining Flare Wingman. By fusing Sparkman with KotS you get a huge beater than can inflict massic burn damage.

You think it would be fun, but it'd just be the same decks as Ranked

but user that's clearly what he wants
he wants to shitpost how his cancer deck is more cancer than the cancer decks of other players

I'M BRINGIN' DA BOOM

>Espa Roba
>Esper Roba
Oh my God, I'm fucking retarded
Also, Jinzo fucking when?

>tfw you misclick because your opponent is taking forever
I hate third worlders.

>tfw beating p2w fags with six sams

Only decks I get consistently rekt by are Cyber Angels, dinos give me some trouble as well but Ive been pleasantly surprised

Furries fear the samurai.

Post dick.
I can't deal with furries while playing sams. But I have no issues with CA

Skills are removed from the game, how does the new meta look?

>tfw doing Dark Magician and Glads fall like flies to me unless they have 2-3 Floodgates
though Floodgate is getting more common as I rank up

>MOM HE WONT LET ME USE WALL OF DISRUPTION
>I JUST WANNA FLOODGATE REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Can't wait.

>Senjus are all I need to make a Saffira-CA deck, I have everything else.
I... WILL BEAT DSOYED

Well floodgate absolute murders hazy when they use pic related's effect to summon two more hazies. They have very few ways to recover if they get cockblocked that badly early on.

Can't Floodgate not touch Hazy though since it targets cards?

Floodgate doesn't target, also it can floodgate multiple targets at once if they summon 2 or more monsters from the same effect like with peryton.

Boring. No more role playing.

Who here ready to see Silent Magician-Jinzo be the next meta?

I see you are a man of culture aswell.

Shit that is devastating then, considering all the Glad decks running it now.

bring back toons

I know a guy

Yeah if you have a floodgate set, never use it when they summon peryton until after they use its effect.

Is there a mega link or the like for all of these?

The idea against furries is to pick off their back row with yaichi and never attack until you're absolutely positive it goes through, sitting on Zanji with some back row makes things difficult for them as well. If you get floodgated hopefully you'll have a econ to tribute it and steal their monster.

Ive actually mostly been using 2 iroh 2 Zanji, going to experiment with 3 Zanji and see how it goes

Also when I see furries go into Essedarii I instantly breathe a massive sigh of relief.

exodia is dead

Essedarii is usually just a desperation tactic that rarely pays off, you trade powerful effects for a generic beater.

Enemy controller says hello

>just hit level 10
>feeling unmotivated
spoopy

Thank god they dont have Gyzarus

SRH says hello

Yeah any of the other 2 material fusions glads have are better than Essedarii.

The announcement doesn't say whether or not Roba can actually be unlocked as playable. Do announcements like this usually say that? Because I assume they'll at first only give us 1 Jinzo with his starter deck.

>mfw running 3 econ in my GB deck because i have no other staples besides impenetrable attack
>mfw i still make people ragequit disconnecting

>"Regarding known issues"
>I read steam and english.
I really thought they would finally add jap voices to steam.

kek, no fucking way

Never ever

>summon Feng Huang
>opponent scrambles to activate all their S/T

What about Enishi?

lel

>Chazz gets Armed Dragon lvl 7 out on his first turn
>have no way to beat over it since hand was shit
>get an idea
>use Dicephoon and actually hope for a 1 or 6
>get a 6 so take the burn damage
>I can now activate Jaden's skill to play Skyscraper since my LP is low enough
>summon Blazeman, mill Neos and beat over Armed Dragon with 3500

What was your most skilliest play of the day?

Go for the fucking throat
praying you didn't brick

Deck?

>Have only 8 monsters in my deck
>Draw monsters for 5 consecutive turns
Granted the occasion actually called for a bunch of monsters but still what the hell?

Why can they add Jap voices to mobile but not Steam again?

ive had way to many times where i end up with 3 insights/1 spirit on my opening hand makes me wonder if shuffle is rigged
