Can somebody name a more pointless to use card than this?

>>145856554
Draw two more Formula Synchrons with Stardust Charge Warrior, erase Junk Warriors and Junk Berserkers, where the fuck is your Soul Charge, get only one Quilbolt, replace all Traps with all Solemns, draw the Solemn Strikes since you are being budget, just make sure they aren't ugly and the proper fucking color unlike a certain flower. Maybe Left Arm Offering since you're going to end up with a giant hand anyways if you et the correct Synchro Summoning Line up

>>145856994
It will become better when there are fewer viable decks that top. For OCG they have a rogue friendly meta but for us where the only relevant shit we have is Kozmos and Monarchs, it would definitely be more powerful right now. Cant say for sure in the upcoming months though.

>>145868031
>>145868309
On turn 1 with the field empty you can summon it as a level 3 to make Ancient Fairy Dragon (ABCs float when used for synchros) which pops your chicken game or hangar and adds another field for more searches and pluses, and special summon more of your unions and gadgets from your hand.
If you're going up against an established field you summon it as a level 4 to make a field wiper like Scarlight.

Makes sense to me.

>>145869442
Both effects are pretty good

>>145869023
>Even Blue-Eyes can run Dark Magician if they really wanted to
Not only Dark Magician but Ritual Blue-eyes can also use BLS since Chaos Form is generic and Blue-eyes fits the BLS ritual requirements better than Gaia + Kuriboh.

Yugi has got to be the most cucked MC in existence, even Anzu has cucked him throughout the anime storyline and post canon.

>>145869442

The immunity effects are really good since you can effectively make towers.
Draw and special summon effect is very good too. Hand to graveyard is whatever.

They float when you use transmodify though.

So why are people still complaining about ABCs not floating in certain situations when they are already clearly strong?

Do people just want full helmet decks?

No it isn't, drawbacks should emerge naturally through gameplay, not be built into the fucking deck right out the gate.

>>145872139
>Isn't it good that a good deck has certain drawbacks?
>Isn't that what makes for more interesting plays?
If by interesting plays, you mean getting sacked by shitty petdecks because your deck has a flaw then fuck no.
All Tier 1 decks should guarantee you complete victory when you play against something not tier 1 or be so oppressive, people scoop when you play it.

Except ABCs only floating when being sent from the field isn't a significant drawback you retard. Again, most decks are running Transmodify and Cockadoodledoo for a reason, and the only ABC that really even floats well is Buster Drake, quit being fucking retarded and play the game

>>145872321
>Why do you not want good cards?
Promoting powercreep just makes other decks shitty which isn't what we should aspire to. The deck is already good while being able to interact with other decks in a non oppressive way. That should be the ideal

>No it isn't, drawbacks should emerge naturally through gameplay, not be built into the fucking deck right out the gate.

>>145872524
>Promoting powercreep just makes other decks shitty which isn't what we should aspire to.
Why not? The game is at its best when few decks top. Just rotate out the 1-2 tier 1 decks every 6 months or so. Enough time for the meta to develop over time but not so much that shit gets stale.
>The deck is already good while being able to interact with other decks in a non oppressive way.
YGO is not about interaction

>>145872683
These decks never deserved to get banned, Konami just needed to print better cards and to match them instead of banning them and then printing cards which are shit so people stop complaining.

I think a large variety of powerful decks is best.

So you're being such a fag about this that you're now arguing about Yugioh NEEDING near Tier 0 decks in order to be good because you realized you lost the point about ABCs somehow being shit when they can only float from the field to the grave, DESPITE the counterpoint I keep bringing up with Transmodify, Cockadoodledoo, and the Symphonic Warriors?

You should be more clear about what you are trying to say. You left out many steps in between reading my post and making your comment. There seems to be no relevance between the two.

>>145873769
Are you suggesting we make Yu-Gi-Oh into a MOBA?

Literally untrue you incredible faggot. Variance means being skilled enough to prepare for a variety of outcomes

>>145873886
I think he's suggesting everyone should play with stacked mirror decks

>>145873886
No, I suggest to stop kneecapping decks and just embracing the tier 0 bullshit. When a deck can out nearly anything and is consistent enough to never brick and access any card in the deck at just about any time, you eliminate nearly all random chance from the game, and only leave it to the players to build and play their decks properly. Leave the possibility for players to add techs to give themselves an edge as well, but leave decks the ability to answer those as well if you're prepared for it. Techs should be an advantage, not a guaranteed win even if the opponent anticipates them.

Damn that Phantom Abyss fag should just give up, it's pathetic.

>>145873769
Only a small portion of the topping decks are build to counter the opponent's strategy. (Talking about portion of a given deck, not of all decks as a whole.) The majority of the deck is dedicated to it's own strategy. And often the part of the deck which is for the opponent is just some twin twisters and some solemns. Each deck is built to be able to handle a variety of situations. This can be seen in the choice of extra deck options. Main deck solutions to opponent's problems are very versatile. Sure there is not enough side deck space to prepare for imaginary format. But no one is playing imaginary format matches.

Shut-up Tewart, your BE deck sucks.

Resonator Combos
Red Resonator + field + any A/B/C
If you have A in hand search B or C if you have B or C in hand search A.

Red summon B attach C synchro into Stardust Charge Warrior Draw 1 Search with B and Summon A with C.
Summon ABC. End with a +2 ABC + Charge Warrior. (If you have Instant Fusion you can go into a 2200 dweller Crystal Wing and ABC)

Red Resonator + feild + Galaxy Soldier.
Field search B. Summon Red summon B attach A. Synchro into Charge Warrior draw 1 search C with B add B to hand with A. Discard C+B with the Galaxy Soldiers. Summon Infinity + ABC. End +2 with Infinity + ABC + Charge warrior.

Galaxy + field + Gadget
Field search C. Summon Gold summon C attach B overlay into Geargigant. B search A gear detach C search Any light machine Discard A + what you searched with Gear Gigant with Galaxy Soldier. Summon Infinity Summon ABC. End +1 ABC + Infinity + Gear Gigant. Also you have exact 8000 on board to attack for game.

Transmodify + Union Hangar
Probably the most basic combo in the deck.
Union search B, Summon B attach C.
Transmodify B into Galaxy soldier, Galaxy Soldier search another copy of himself and seach A with B.
Galaxy soldier discard A then summon Infinity and ABC.
End +1 with Infinity and ABC on field.


Basically open Field or Terraforming and you can do some good shit. There are more combos, but these are the most common.

>soul charge

What's your ranking in Checkmate?

I loved Nekroz and DRAGONS format. This is the first time I actually completely disliked a format.

>>145897519
Last I checked it was around 1200. I haven't played Checkmate or checked my ranking in like a week. If I liked the current meta I would play TCG ranked on DN desu.

>>145898169
I'm willing to play if there are more people willing to play.

No
>Scapegoat
No

>>145898429
Yeah you don't actually play anyone good until you hit top 1000 at least. I'm around 600 and all I see are Kozmos, Monarchs, SMRIII and Pendulums ad nauseum while I'm just chillin' with PSY-Frames
Also I didn't like Nekroz format at all because Trish ;) just made me so salty when I first encountered it. Loved D R A G O N S though.

Do you have to banish your hand if you use Left Arm Offering with Diamond Dude?

>>145898975
You're activating the card's effect without paying the cost or even meeting the activation condition

What do you think?

>>145899221
I don't know, that's why I asked.

>>145899330
>without paying the cost
Protip: Any clause that comes before a semicolon is a cost

>>145898610
3 Quickdraw clogs hard though

Holy shit, that match was awful. I can't believe people STILL run undyne and controller in mermails......

Petdeck time? Petdeck time.
I've never seen a deck generate as much insane advantage as this. By the time the duel's over you'll have a full board of monsters and S/T and like 10 cards in your hand if you open well.
Problem is the deck dies to Titty Twister and Dank Law. Also it can brick if you don't open any draw traps.

You do realise that Atlanteans got 1st (FIRST) Place at Straya Nationals less than a week ago while running the Undine/Controller engine right?

Ever hear of Raigeki?

>>145901079

as i said

A FUCKING JOKE

>>145901107
I side Breakthrough Skill for the HERO matchup as well as random rogue stuff. I would play Raigeki but it's absolutely awful against the meta this format unless you can bust out a Dweller (which this deck obviously can't). Also my 3 mained Quakings get rid of most problematic monsters.

AW SHIT MEMES CONTINUOUS


Performapal Le-Bellman
Level 6 LIGHT Fairy-Type Pendulum Effect Monster
ATK 100
DEF 2600
Pendulum Scale: 1
【Pendulum Effect】
(1) Once per turn, during your Main Phase: You can increase the Levels of all Pendulum Summoned monsters you control by 1.
【Monster Effect】
(1) Once per turn: You can declare a Level between 1~{?}, then target 1 “Performapal” monster you control, except this card; until the end of this turn, this card’s Level is {decreased} by the declared Level, and then the target monster has its Level increased by the declared Level.

>literally le bell man
Why do they keep letting redditors design cards?

>>145902701
Konami couldn't care less about Reddit memes. Reddit shouldn't be a reason for them to stop using French words in their card names.

>>145902487
>of all Pendulum Summoned monsters
They ruined it. Bellman could have been great but they ruined it.
Why did have to nerf it?

Literally how is this a nerf when the only fucking decks that would have played it were Pendulum decks anyway? Shut up empolemew, Madoclhes are going to be shit forever, you had your chance during HAT format but you fucked off, now shut up

I shitpòst on purpose without even noticing and don't even give a fuck about how I'm dragging down the quality of the thread

I think that's enough, I'm gonna stop posting in /dng/, it's for the best

>>145903248
>Literally how is this a nerf when the only fucking decks that would have played it were Pendulum decks anyway?
You're stupid. If they hadn't nerfed it then that wouldn't be the only decks to play it.
And it's still a big nerf because a legit pendulum summon is a much bigger commitment and carries much larger risks than merely using a pendulum effect.

Using Bellman you could have done simple things like summoning Infinity like it's nothing in Gadgets or ABCs.
Or easy R4s in Phantom Knights or BAs or whatever.
Not to mention what it could do to enhance synchro plays.

But now it can't do anything outside of pendulum summon plays.

but you can already do that AND get a dragon buster out in the same play

good job konami

>>145903995
If you have Galaxy Soldier, sure. But you can't do it with your actual gadgets or abcs or whatever.

>>145904175
Galaxy and/or transmodify. Point is you want your ABCs on the field or in the grave. Keeping your ABCs locked in as material would just slow you down.

>>145903748
>Using Bellman you could have done simple things like summoning Infinity like it's nothing in Gadgets or ABCs.
Are you seriously pretending that this is difficult to do by just splashing LeBell man in your shitty deck and just....PENDULUM SUMMONING the monsters anyway? Your complaints are so insignificant holy shit, this doesn't stop you from summoning Infinity at all you dumbass

Wait, I'm confused. A guy at YCS origins used two draco face offs, am I missing something or is it not limited to one?
