My OP question: What do you define as a budget deck: a deck largely composed of commons, or something that on the second hand market is cheap to assemble?
Right now im putting together a ghostrick deck because the monsters are cute and cool and getting back into the game i want a nice Xyz deck to play with friends and that archetype theme is nice, Alucard seems to priciest at £9.99 on average but i'm thinking of adding Tourguide from the Underworld x2 and that can be reaaaaal pricey depending on where you look.
What are you building?

After getting back into the game the last few months i thought Pendulums were fun and Xyz was confusing.
Now i think Xyz is the most versatile and fun and Pendulums seems largely pointless until Konami really starts to push them.

To answer your question: I'd go with definition number 2
Ghostrick probably isn't the best XYZ aggro deck.
I'd say Ghostricks are a lot better as a mill/control deck using Ghostrick Skeleton as the main milling tool (unfortunately Morhping Jar is out)
or a burn deck that relies on keeping your opponents monsters locked down and using cards like Just Desserts and Ghostrick werewolf.
Both make extensive use of XYZ (and on occasional synchro if you like that stuff)

Themed monsters are the cancer that killed Yu-Gi-Oh! as a game, and they make decks incredibly standardized.
In the past, you had a few cards that were monster-dependent as spells, like for the Blue Eyes White Dragon and so on. Your decks were made up as you desired; if you wanted dragons, then you went with them; if you wanted fairies, with fairies. You didn't pick a specific them like "Six Samurai" or whatever.
The game just plays itself nowadays, instead of requiring skill and the Heart of the Cards. Or, rather, it plays itself if you have the money to do so.

No.199885
>>199883
You need it for Odd-Eyes Rebellion, snd it's effect allows you to Xyz Rank 7s with spent Rank 7s, allowing them to have use even after losing Overlay units. Mixing it with Creation Magician basically lets you bring out any Xyz with other spent Xyz, or let you combo to give the powerhouse ones extra Overlay units.
No.199892
>>199883
As >>199885 said, it's for Odd-Eyes Rebellion. Don't bother with the Xiangsheng/Creation Magician counterpart. She's totally unnecessary and has an unreliable scale. Just have Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon out with Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon out by using Dragonpit and Xiangke as your scales. Activate Xiangke and target Absolute. Bam - instant Rebellion.
Getting Rebellion out successfully with his full effect can be a devastating game finisher. If they survive their own creatures burning them, you've got three more attacks from a massive 3k body.
Rebellion dies? Shiiiit, at least you can burn down your scales, throw him in there and then search for whatever Pendulum monster you want to go alongside him in main phase 2.
Even ignoring Rebellion, Xiangke is a nice, meaty level 7 in a pinch.

I used to collect yugioh cards when I was younger and eventually sold em all off. I never really played the game, but as I am feeling a bit burned out on MTG I wanted to try my hand at it. So instead of buying a BFZfat pack I bought both 2015 mega tins. After going through the cards, I want to make a good Performapal deck with what little resources I have everything else was incredibly low in overlap barring maybe heavy samurai and artifacts
Here's what I have so far:
Monsters
X2 Performapal sword fish
X2 Performapal hip hippo
X2 Performapal fire mufflerlion
X1 Performapal Skeeter Skimmer
X1 Performapal Whip Snake
X1 Performapal Spikeagle
Spells
X2 Pendulum Shift
X1 Pot of Riches
X1 Illusion Balloons
Traps
X2 Last minute cancel
X1 Chain Dispel
X1 Performapal Revival
X1 Wall of Disruption
X1 Performapal Call
It's only 19 cards and if I were to throw in a few Fluffals, I'd get 23.
Should I just go out and buy a pre-built deck or just try to get more Performapals?

i got a question
can steelsworm roach stop the summon of multiple monsters at once?
yesterday 2 guys at our locals were arguing if steelswarm roach could negate a pendulum summon of more than 1 monster, since his effect said "monster" and not "monster(s)"
No.199961
>>199934
No, due to the rulings. It can only be activated in response to summons of Level 5 and up monsters that don't form a chain link. If your opponent summons several monsters via pendelum summon, you can respond if at least one is of a level Roach can hit, but only one can be hit because Roach's effect can only be used once per chain.
No.199964
>>199961
As I typed this up, I doublechecked the rulings.
Roach vs Pendelum:
"If your opponent summoms a Level 4 and a Level 5 monster via pendelum summon, you may activate Steelswarm Roach in resonse to that summon. Like Chaos Trap Hole, the summon of the Level 5 monster is negated, but the summon of the Level 4 is not"
The difference between Roach vs a card with "monster(s)" in the text is that Roach only affects designated targets while ones with the "monster(s)" text hits everything summoned at that time. An example is Bottomless Trap Hole destroying monsters below 1500 ATK if they were summoned alongside one with 1500 ATK or more
No.200009
>>199964
point is that bottomless specificly says monster(s)

Note that in Yugioh the original Nipponese wording takes priority. "Monster" and "Monster(s)" are both creation of English text as Nipponese doesn't have pluralized words and will always use "モンスター"+a specified quantity if needed.
Steelswarm Roach doesn't give a quantity like say… Book of Moon (1体) or Dark Hole (全て), but I'd need to check a card that can, but doesn't have to, effect multiples to be sure and I can't think of one off the top of my head.

I had to scrap the Performapal deck, not enough overlapping cards to boost it to 40. Decided to go with a cluster fuck deck.

It's main gimmick is the use of Strike of the Monarch (I just need to clarify that if a monster is destroyed or tributed, it remains as the declared type in the graveyard until the turn is over right?)

No.200147

I will explain some
1. Dark Simorgh Lock: It's all about getting Dark Simorgh out as fast as possible with Hanzo and Transfomation. With Dark Simorgh your opponent can't set cards, add that with anti-spell fragrance and it's GG most of the time.
4: New Gagagas: Gagaga Head is a level 6 with a Cyber dragon effect which makes it a Level 4 monster when it's summoned that way. When this card is Normal Summoned: You can target up to 2 "Gagaga" monsters in your Graveyard, except himself ; Special Summon them, you cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except by Xyz Summon using only "Gagaga" monsters. An Xyz Monster that was Summoned using this card on the field as Xyz Material gains this effect: If it is Xyz Summoned: Draw 1 card. Gagagas can make almost any rank easily by level mutilation.
5. Heroic HAT: With pendulums becoming more popular Scythe puts in more work than ever now and since you only run a little set of cards there's more room to add things to counter your opponent. I made the deck to try and stop any kind of summon to buy me time to finish the game. I forgot to add Warning and a another Coth. And Traptrix Traphole Nightmare is amazing.

Nice Reptier tech. I'm a fan of that one as well. I side it though since I deal with a few other pendulum decks at my locals, so it tends to be a crappy thing to draw into against them.
Any particular reason you run three Dragonpulse? The card is only decent. I think it's good at 0-1 copies. I honestly only ever summon it with my Ebon Illusion Magician or discard it off Pendulum Call.
I really recommend you get Avian and Odd-Eyes Rebellion as soon as possible. I finished two games with Avian today and OTK'd three people with Rebellion. You have a copy of Xiangke Magician? I know those kinda shot up in price cause of Magician hype.

So ive had some good fun with my new Ghostricks deck. Its missing a few things like another alucard, tour guide and two lanterns but on the whole its very enjoyable albeit right now i have too many 3 stars i think that just arent worth it with only 1 alucard when i should aim for dullahan more since that wins my duels almost 100% of the time so far.
What i've got so far:
Monsters
[Effect Monsters]
>3x Ghostrick Mary - 1*
>3x Ghostrick Spectre - 1*
>2x Ghostrick Jackfrost - 1*
>3x Ghostrick Doll - 2*
>Ghostrick Nekomusume - 2*
>3x Ghostrick Jiangshi - 3*
>Ghostrick Ghoul - 3*
>Tour Guide from the Underworld - 3*

>2x Ghostrick Dullahan - Rank 1
>Shining elf - Rank 2
>Ghostrick Socuteboss - Rank 2
>2x Wind-Up Zenmaines - Rank 3
>Grenosaurus - Rank 3
>Ghostrick Alucard - rank 3

Magic Cards
[Quick Play Magic Cards]
>2x Magical Space Typhoon
[ContinuousMagic Cards]
>3x Swords of Concealing Light
[Field Magic Cards]
>2x Ghostrick Mansion
>Ghostrick Parade
>Ghostrick Museum
So far i think i will just replace a doll, and both mummies for lanterns when i get some and a jackfrost for another tour guide plus 1 more alucard and dullahan for my Extra Deck. Its probably no good competitively but with friends its a really fun deck to lockdown shit. My friend was super pumped that he summoned out his best synchro turn one only to have it spend the entire match locked faced down as my ghosts powered up my Dullahan -all the more so thanks to Ghoul and hammered his life points directly. This kind of thing happens a lot and i think on low skill level decks an early jiang shi into spectres into dullahan can wreck people way harder than alucard reportedly can.

OP Ghostricks are okay if you can stall long enough to set up. Faster decks aren't going to give you much of a chance to do so but once you get rolling using neko another face up to trigger neko and a facedown with ghostrick night like witch and ghostrick-go-round would be more than sufficient to lock most fields. protect the shit out of your spells and traps and spells they are your life blood.

The fact that people really aren't playing a whole lot that can stop effects from going off (outside of some Pendulum builds with Apex Avian) only helps the deck. They're also able to utilize Wavering Eyes, one of the best cards in the format, as well as having cards in hand to not feel bad about discarding for stuff like Twin Twister and Divine Wrath.

Hey you know what used to be fun? Talking about what kind of bullshit deck youd run if you were an anime character.
I'd like to run a deck focused on turning your opponents monsters face down. It would win using piercing damage and effects like continuous traps that deal damage to the opponent each time their monsters change battle position or maybe each standby phase deal 500 damage for each face down monster they have. It would be themed on the curse of the mummy and each mummy would have a different covering material. So one would have the standard bandages, but others might be rope, chains, book pages, trading cards, brightly colored ribbons, snakes etc.
Though if i had to use an existing deck type, i would probably use Generation Fish or Huge Revolution.

BLS and all his support, Buster Blader, Gaia, Curse of Dragon, now Dark Magician support? They're like 5 different decks if you count the God card stuff. Good luck getting that to flow. But if you want a BEWD deck? Every. Single. Card is like: "Here, whip out a BEWD and reck face." Much easier to deal with. Not only that, but each individual card stands on it's own. From the Maiden with Blue Eyes who can deter attacks to the White Stone cards… Dark Magician doesn't have anything that really impresses by itself. Everything is a combo card, and when you fight meta with that you lose all your resources to one or two backrow cards. And god forbid someone play anything that remotely locks your plays– you'll be boned.

I think the premade structure decks make these kinds of players, they dont think creatively themselves and cant deal. I mean shit they kept screaming "you just followed a guide!" when not one GT guide says to ever use doll, mummy or ghoul and often disuades from them.

No.209277

You're right to an extent. Sometimes Structure Decks make lazy players. Other times, people just want casual, entry-level play. Doing research on a deck, picking out cards, buying them and actually building a deck can be a lot for some people.
Competitive or not, your Ghostrick deck is not a SD and is on a different level. You should find players more on your level or deal with your friend's bitching.
Also, I don't know which ones you're looking at, but I've seen plenty of guides recommend Doll, Ghoul and Mummy. Doll alone is a key component of the Ghostrick Mill deck. Mummy is constantly recommended for it's ability to bring on easy Xyz Summons. Ghoul is just good for hitting hard when you need the win.
No.209278
>>209277
Most nowadays recommend using tour guide instead of mummy since mummy relies on another monster in your hand while tour guide is a searcher for the alucard engine.

Me and quite a few of my buddies look at structure decks for getting a general idea of the archetype and getting a lot of the support cards for cheap. Considering most SD's over here are only like 10-12 bucks a pop it's usually a better idea to just buy 3 of them for 30 instead of paying for the individual cards. It makes getting a playset of certain cards easier and cheaper most of the time. On top of that most SD's, at least nowadays, have pretty good foundations right out of the box and allows for a sturdy platform to build a strong custom deck. However I will agree that most people don't use SD's like this and they end up just being crap tier players because of it.

Depends on what you're selling. 100 commons go for about 5 USD when sold in bulk, not accounting for shipping and handling. Rarer and more sought after cards of course vary from price anywhere between 5 and 80 USD. Just check online for individual prices as there are so many cards it'll take forever to list all of them.
If you want to go the extra mile instead of selling commons in bulk you can instead build decks with them akin to structure decks and sell them for 8-14 bucks a pop, depending on the build quality and cards used of course. You should also make sure these decks have staples of their archetype as well to ensure that people would actually buy them, otherwise you're just looking at the prices for bulk selling as listed above. 10 bucks for 40 cards is better than 5 for 100 cards.

because otherwise you're gonna get 1 booster with a chance to get something decent or to simply lose your money
if you get them in bulk like a booster box, you have a few guaranteed good cards. and if you're getting them when the set releases, they're worth even more. this is why you always want to also go to sneak peak events to get the new cards as early as possible, since thats when they could be worth up to 4 times their later price

I sell common deck cores for around $10 as well, but they take a lot of time to put together and sometimes they don't even sell.

Dark magician decks aren't difficult to defeat with this. Basically you want to either get mask of restrict down to keep them from summoning dark magician (girl), or hit their dark magic attack with a cursed seal (or dark bribe, or chain imperial custom to it so all your face up continuous traps survive). Shadow Imprisoning Mirror also stops Breaker.
I had some problems with D.D. decks, so I am considering putting Imperial Iron Wall in, however D.D. decks are really few and far between.
The beauty of this deck is that a lot of people have no experience working against heavy stall/control decks, so they'll end up setting cards that'll never see use (e.g. Dimensional Prison, Mirror Force, etc), which ends up with them cluddering their backrow, and even if they draw what they need they can't activate it since they lack the space for it.

Definitely doable.
Attack of the cornered rat lets you deal with opponent monsters that are too strong.
Another option is Mecha Phantom Beast Hamstrat (level 3, summons 2 tokens if flipped face up, cannot be destroyed while there's any token on the field).
Scapegoat and Fires of Doomsday work too, especially if you have Stampede (or more) down on the field. Can work for a defense in a pinch.
Also, Mini Guts, great card for a token deck. Tribute one monster, target one monster your enemy controls, drop it's attack to 0. If it's sent to the graveyard your opponent takes damage equal to its attack in the grave.

I took these cards and started building the deck, on top of that I've even added Pixie Rings and a single Scrap-Iron Scarecrow(I'll probably be removing this later as I refine the deck but I need to put something in to reach 40 cards for now) for added opponent frustration. Going to go test this deck on some hapless folk online and will come back with results later. Thanks for the advice, fellas!

Gravity bind, Level Limit Area B for stall, though they won't stop XYZ summons. If you want to focus more on tokens then skill drain is an idea.
Creature swap is a card I can recommend. You can always trade the opponent a scapegoat for something juicy.
No.210231
>>210230
Oh, forgot, Flying "C". Special summons to enemy side of the field when he summons a monster. Controller of that card cannot XYZ summon. You can protect it with a safe zone, though he can still synchro it away.
Overall it's kinda hard to cripple enemy's summoning without giving up your own.

If you can give him Acid Golem then he can't special summon and takes 2000 dmg per turn. But that's really something for another deck.

Playing online is great for testing decks. I suggest YGOPro. The automation will save you from so many retards claiming ridiculous shit.
Dunno how others feel about it, but Pojo is good for reading up on decks and strategies. Each thread in the TCG Strategies section is dedicated to one deck and finding the optimal builds to take on the meta.
I'm sure it doesn't have to be said, but stay the fuck away from Reddit. Just like in everything else, almost everyone there is behind the times and never knows what they're talking about. They make the shittiest suggestions for decks and all criticism is frowned upon.
As for YouTube, Cimoooooooo has a great segment called Tech Tuseday which discussions interesting cards that could affect the meta.
Team APS has good general discussion, openings and various other things.

AznEyes is a general moron. He's legitimately bad. Watch any livestream he puts on and it'll quickly become apparent. He's more of the Yugioh class clown than a useful learning tool.
GalacticGod just has low-grade material that won't help anyone improve. He's not bad, but his content is better suited for casual viewing, not learning. He's also really cringe worthy.
MegaCapital G is AznEyes on crack. Not only is he bad at the game, he touts his opinion as law only to put out a new video a couple months later saying, "Well, I was wrong again. You guys were right." While it's admirable that he admits when he's wrong, the number of times it happens is awful. He successfully gets terrible opinions stuck in too many player's heads.

I'm a new player and saw this thread, or maybe one on /v/ like a month ago and bought 3 of all the non expensive ghostricks and 1 of the expensive ones, They are a fun deck and pretty good for beginners, also a good deck to test stuff against, as if you dont run removals you will just get FLIPPED TURNED UPSIDE DOWN and lose.
always in the market for easy to play decks, if you know any please mention them, I have pretty bad ADD and I struggle with the more complex text heavy decks, so shit like ghostrick and dinomists where they all have the same effects give or take makes it a lot easier for me, It's more to do with the setting I play in (at a pub with friends) so it's hard to concentrate 100% on the game.

Did your BLS deck have any of the new Gaia Knights in them? Because Charging and Arisen Gaia can bring a BLS into your hand and Special Summon it respectively.

I think a lot of Pendulum players are currently terrified of Naturia Beast and Anti-Spell Fragrance as well. They try to get their whole hand on board before they get locked down.
But those cards are just why a lot of OEM players have started running a Speedroid engine.
My BLS deck did have Charging Gaia, who flip-flopped between a one-of and two-of. He wasn't all that great, honestly. Arisen Gaia would've been much better, but I sold the deck before he was officially announced to be in BOSH. Can't complain, though. Someone way overpaid for it in an ebay auction. Nostalgia for old creatures is a hell of a drug.
Even with Arisen, it's still a really inconsistent deck.

So far, my next change is putting Pendragon up to three and dropping two Leonidas. Leonidas already isn't the greatest card in the deck, but he's gonna be near useless when the SD comes out. Pendragon puts in so much work, especially in this Spell-heavy format.

As a joke I decided to create a Deskbot deck to see what these little bastards could do. In all honesty I didn't expect much from them with their tiny attack and cute bobbleheaded design.
After setting up my field with my pendulums and getting 4 deskbots up to 2000 attack and 1 deskbot up to 3000 attack on my second turn I decided to rethink my first impressions on them. For a few moments I felt absolutely unstoppable… then my opponent played Raigeki and cleared my field. I thought all was lost until I drew this beautiful, glorious, card in pic related. Because of all the Deskbots in my graveyard due to the Raigeki my opponent inadvertently gave me a game winning card with 3000 attack points. Next turn I play Deskbot 003, special summon 002, Machine Duplication Deskbot 003, use 003's effect 3 times and buff 007.
Before I had any time to finish adding up my final attack value for 007 my opponent scooped and walked away without a word. I thought Madolche players would love the cute little robits but I think I may have accidentally scarred him. Either way Deskbots are Fun/10 would recommend.

i'm questioning whether i should put daigusto emeral in the extra deck. if i do, i'd either have to get rid of master diamond or zirconia.
i'm also not sure if i should side deck starlight road (it really helps against twin twisters right now, + it stops people from using wavering eyes, even if they're only doing it to themselves) and if i do, should i run stardust dragon (my extra deck is already in need of space)
i've also got a third lapislazuli, but i'm not sure if she's worth the space, considering her once per turn summon limit. it's pretty rare that i'd manage to run through all three of them

No.215332

and another question, i've got brilliant spark and crystal rose, are either of them useful enough to put in the main deck?
No.215391
>>215329
Daigusto Emeral is good for recycling your cards but it's not a card that you want to play immediately. He's a card that's meant to go for the grind game. I would personally say play him at 1 and remove 1 Zirconia since all Zirconia has going for him is that he's a beat stick with no effect.
Starlight Road is good a good choice for side-deck. Remember when you activate its effect you DON'T HAVE TO summon Stardust Dragon if you don't want to. While the effect of Stardust Dragon stops any mass destruction of your field that isn't much of a worry to begin with since you're playing Starlight Road. It can be useful if you want a negate for future turns but in all honesty the game may not last that long for that to be an issue. If you do decide to go with it put it in at 1.
Keep Lapis at 2 or even reduce it to 1 if you find you're just not playing her enough to warrant the space.
>>215330
De-fusion has it's uses but I don't think you should main deck it. Side it and use it when you feel it's necessary.
>>215332
I can't honestly recommend Brilliant Spark. It burns your opponent for some damage but it doesn't actually solve the problem at hand of clearing away the creature that destroyed your monster to begin with. I don't even think you should side-deck it in my opinion. There are better traps and spells to be using that space on.
As for Crystal Rose I think you should probably play it at 1. It adds consistency to the deck as it can act as any Gem-Knight card that you need for that instance. On top of that the card recycles itself so there's no need to play it at more than 1. You can also use the effect of Daigusto Emeral to recycle any Gem-Knights you tossed into the grave via the Crystal Rose so you never really lose the monsters.
Please note I am not a master of Gem-Knights in any way, shape, or form. This is just what I've seen to work for me personally. As always test out your deck with every adjustment to see if it's to your liking.

so i went with my gem-knights this week
went 2-2
lost 2-1 twice against monarchs. i almost always lost either because i was locked and wasn't able to summon anything or because they tributed my strongest monsters. + i forgot to put effect veiler in my side deck
i won against 2 kids with toon/random yugi cards. kind of a shame, i even lost 1 game to the toons since they stole one of my monsters.
if i had better side deck vs monarchs i might have done better, but generally gem-knights were probably my worst choice to play right now

i'm trying to make a six samurai+x-saber deck, since i lack some cards to complete either deck
right now i'm using goblindbergh because a) boggart knight only works with x-sabers and can't be used for most of my synchros and b) i don't have more than 1 six samurai kizan
i haven't put saber hole or musakani magatama since either rely on having one of the archetypes on the field
i'll probably replace temtempo if i find a better rank 3 at my locals. preferably zenmaines or leviathan

Alucard is a generic Rank 3 whose ability is that he can pop a set card your opponent controls once per turn. Basically it's just another tool that allows you to put on some backrow hate that can be used in most decks that have at least 2 level 3's. It's especially good in Burning Abyss due to the fact that the entire main deck is made of level 3 monsters.

No.219582

I'm actually thinking of having you go pure. Because as-is, your cards trip over each other: You get Saber support with hands full of Sams and vice versa. There's some new generic synchro support that can basically fulfill the idea you have of synching like crazy using your traps, but I don't know how many monster you have to fill out the deck.
I'm looking at everything tbh. Ideas so far:
T.G Striker
T.G Warwolf
Destructotron
Reinforce Truth
Skill Prisoner
Breakthrough Skill
Fiendish Chain
Forbidden Lance
Forbidden Chalice
Galaxy Cyclone
Reinforcements of the Army
Supply Squad
Horn of the Phantom Beast
Soul Charge
Backs to the Wall
Solidarity
Rivalry of Warlords
Gozen Match
Besides that, your deck faces some other major problems:
2) It doesn't plus. It's a deck that relies of minusing the opponent, but if its initial moves get wrecked, you're pretty screwed. I.E: No draw power/engine.
3) The monsters you have are lucky if they reach 2500 attack. Any monster that's 25+ will give you issues. You're gonna have to reach to take it out, since you run a soft lock deck, rather than a beatdown. Even if you main things like the Forbidden spells to get over it, you'll have to be able to do ALL those things and have it work or you'll lose.
4) The standard trap lineup you have won't scare anyone. Most people destroy backrow long before they attack. Basically think to yourself, if BRD or Scrap Dragon would wreck your backrow, it isn't going to get off most of the time. You need to play things that can chain easily to destruction. Grab a Book of Moon, or something else along those lines.
5) Your deck relies on special summoning, which the current meta is shitting all over.
I suggest you play mind games with the opponent. Try making a hand destruction/nuke deck. Main a Robbin Gobblin' and some Airbellums, maybe a Dark Hole or 2, Raigeki, and Torrential Tribute. Then, your opponent will have to choose between keeping things in their hand where they're not safe, or the field… where they're not safe. Debris Dragon will help you nuke and nuke hard, Hyunlei too if you ever get him. Once you find yourself at a card advantage you win, cause they can't spam through your negation.
Failing that, get more negation cards. The other Solemns, or Breakthrough Skills/Fiendish Chains/Effect Veilers. You have to keep their monsters down so your monsters can stay in the game and prevent s/t usage.
Lastly, definitely increase your s/t destruction. That's why I recommended the Destructotron + Reinforce Truth combo. Because if someone gets a Vanity's off on you, you lose.

To be fair a good ghostrick deck has very, very few spells/traps you only have one of. Destroying one isnt getting rid of the effect for more than a few turns in the long run, and like most pendulum deck problems if you blow you shit early you are fucked.
And most pendulum players love to blow their wad early. Ghostricks play a looooong game by comparison.

What does it matter if a Pendulum deck overextends early on against Ghostricks? Ghostricks don't have much that will properly deal with a massive board combined with a Pendulum player's S/T hate they likely run.
Ghostricks play the long game, yeah. That's the problem. They win slowly. Unless they Solemn or Bottomless a full Pend summon they're going to be at a major disadvantage against any half-decent Pendulum deck. Even then, they're going to be winning so slowly that the Pendulum player will be regaining resources too fast for the Ghostricker to deal with.

It's not that complex or special but it has a relaxing quality to it. They're also dirt cheap right now so that's a bonus.

Cyber Dragon Infinity is great in decks that can make it. Don't get too excited cause the price has been steadily tanking since the Adjusted List screwed PePe, which was the main deck that used it. Now the best decks that can make it are Deskbots and Raidraptors. You can also throw it in Dinomists and actual Cyber Dragons.
If you're not gonna use those decks, get as much money as you can out of it now. I expect the price to keep dropping unless Ptolemaeus miraculously gets unbanned when we get an official ban list.

We're getting the D/D/D OCG support in July. The only things we won't have by then are Temujin and Alexander, but those could get imported in SHVI. They better get imported in SHVI or I'm gonna flay Konami alive.
D/D/D MAY be Tier 1 once Pendulum Domination hits. It's hard to tell. Personally, after tons of testing, I think they'll be a high Tier 2.
Either way, D/D/D don't currently have a Structure Deck, which is what >>222993 was asking for.

Welp, finally had someone actually try and choke me over the table at a local as they sperged out.
They ran pepes, i ran pure ghostricks and i pulled 5 traps/spells and put them down and he was so paranoid he refused to attack. by turn 4 i had 2 dullahans and 2 angels of mischief and ghosttrick mansion and revealed my spells/traps were things like ghostrick break, ghostrick night and vanish and only then did i pull a swords of concealing light and play ghostrick mansion and took him out when it was clear if he attacked earlier he could have won turn 2 and he went fucking nuclear.

reporting from locals
i did surprisingly well for once
won against ignister-pepe 2-1
won against darkworld 2-1
won against heroes 2-1
lost to monarchs 0-2
lost to kozmos 0-2
in 5/6 of the duels i won i did it via naturia beast/barkion/shi en
lost to monarchs because i bricked/misplayed and activated asceticism when my kizan had 2100 atk (and i don't run grandmaster)
lost to kozmos because i have no clue what to do against them/they managed to run through all my side deck/they veilered fucking trishula
i finally found myself a norden though, so that's nice. i also got a gagaga cowboy, but i'm not sure if i need him

Not particularly. The Buster Blader cards barely work in their own deck, let alone others. That anti-Extra tuner will get blown up crazy easy by both currently relevant Pendulum decks. Even the non-relevant ones will have tons of outs to it.

Possibly. Buster Blader wasn't always that popular. Well known, sure, but not on everyone's mind. I think it was a surprise we got the Destruction Sword archetype at all. Based on Konami's typical treatment of things, I'd say Buster Blader is done for a while after TDIL, and there is no real reason to think it'll get Pendulum support.
Konami has been shaking things up lately, though, so I suppose there is a chance.

I rate it 6/10 - it's functional. I'd take some stuff out and put some stuff in, but most importantly, you should get Glow-Up Bulb, Foolish Burial and One for One in there. Taking out a couple Leonidas for Pendragons wouldn't hurt either.
There's some other stuff I'd swap for stronger versions, like getting rid of the MSTs for Twin Twisters, and a Dark Hole for a Raigeki, but I know those cards are kinda expensive, so I'm not sure how you feel about them.

Foolish is more reliable than Fiendish Rhino Warrior. You might not always be able to push that thing into the grave. You might not even be able to get it out onto the field to then get it to the grave. You can't search Rhino. You can't use it for any of your extra deck D/D/D monsters.
Play Foolish and you've got an instant whatever you need in the grave at that exact moment. Rhino is subpar in D/D/D.

Just throw in shit like royal magical library and Miracle restoring or Fusion Conscription and call of the haunted and you get a pretty solid little archetype that isnt god tier but definitely not the shit tier everyone seems to think it is.

locals are a bit funny
right now, half the club is playing draft pick tournaments (mostly including the oldfags)

2-0 against battlin boxer
1-2 against monarchs (couldn't draw my side deck if my life depended on it)
2-1 against yosenju
i got the new gold pack, which was indeed a waste. only decent things i got were mask change 2, bahamut shark and abyss dweller
i borrowed a masked hero dark law for the tournament, and used him with mask change 2
sadly nobody else wants to sell/trade their dark laws, unless i'm buying their entire fucking hero decks

You're crazy. They have no reason to hit it with the banlist after nailing Ptolemaeus to the wall. CDI is now difficult to make except in the few decks that can run it (Deskbots, Dinomists, ACTUAL Cyber Dragons, etc). PePe has no reason to run it anymore. No top tier deck does.
The few decks that DO still run it have a harder time keeping it on board. With these decks, CDI is likely the only major issue on board you need to deal with. Bait its effect and then get rid of it from there. The problem with CDI in PePe was that you had to deal with CDI, Rafflesia and Solemn Strike all at once.
