Hello Everyone! GoldenNova here! Today, we're taking a look back at Gem-Knights, a series of monsters that got support recently in POTE that just LOVE to Fusion Summon. And also FTK, but we don't talk about that.

@netter11 Год назад

Armadillo is second best normal summon the deck can have (beaten by RESCUE RABBIT ONLY) And if you can start with Unexpected Dai followed by Armadillo for search Lazuli/Obsidian/quarts and because its GEM-Armadillo you can go for Phantom Quarts with it for second search effect. Also Unexpected Dai is one of the best ways to bait out hand trap as it ether eats the hand trap so you can Rescue Rabbit or lets you have a free special summon of Lazuli or *insert gem-knight normal monster you run here*(usually tourmaline) and with Gem-Armadillo or Rescue Rabbit follow up, you can easily start going off too. Good video otherwise :) Next can you do Dragunity? :3

@jacobheindorf172 Год назад

Thunder dragon fusion is also a really nice card for the theme, helping you recycle more banished knights while making a Prismaura. And then it can search you a monster on your next turn. And any tearlaments you splash in can be used to make Amethyst, which is really fun if you make one off of scatter fusion, then summon another one of the tearlament you used and immediately shuffle back the materials. That can even give you a completely free Lazuli trigger.

@Ironiclast1312 Год назад

Gem-Knights are such a fun deck and as a fan of them its been fun to see all the forms the deck has taken over the years. From classic beatdown toolbox to ftk to actually good ftk with Adamancipator. They even had their time in early Duel Links where they would use either Volcanic Shell (Citrine) or Thunder Dragon (Prismaura) in tandem with Fusion Recycling Plant to fuel their fusion plays. And personally my favorite Gem Knight is Zirconia. I once made a "Gem Knight 8 Axis" deck that revolved around constantly summoning Zirconia and using him for rank 8's and big synchros

@KaganeInugami Год назад

The use of Undying Resolve is such a quality touch. Considering that the only place that this plays in Vesperia is an island/cave of crystals. Fantastic job Nova.

@GreatBigPillock Год назад

@SorenFE93 Год назад

Awesome video as always, Nova! You are a man of great knowledge and virtue! Also I can always appreciate hearing Tales of Vesperia music during the fusion section.

@jacobwashington7658 7 месяцев назад

Fun little card to include is "Piercing The Darkness" You draw a card when summoning a normal monster, and most of your Fusions become SUPER POWERFUL BEATSTICKS when you use a normal monster as material. Favorite target is topaz. Beating over My friends chaos max Dragon and burning them for 4000 then attacking again for game. Hell, you can use Master Diamond to fit the bill for battle phase fun craziness with this card. You don't necessarily need it, but it works well when you play with normal monsters.

@naruceleste3591 Год назад

Okay it's funny seeing the Adamancipator For Synchro Options mentioned because I've considered attempting an Adamancipator Gem-Knight deck off and on a few times now. Something about playing Gem-Knights in Over the Nexus once made them stick in my brain since. ...my partner having a random Seraphinite in their older collection happened to be an ironic cherry on top

@EthanKironus8067 Год назад

My favourites are Topaz and/or Master Diamond; even just Topaz is pretty terrifying with Particle Fusion, and I've churned out so many OTKs in World Duel Carnival with them that I've lost count.

@Nameless-ln5mr Год назад

My favorites are Master Diamond and Ruby. Ruby has two things going for him. One, piercing damage never hurts… me! Two, he’s got 2500 ATK, so he gives me “protagonist ace monster” vibes.

(6:00) Update: 4 ( 3 since one's banned). Over Future Fusion now exists and is also a continuous fusion card. (11:29) Gem Merchant notably works with Ancient Gear Knight, boosting its ATK/DEF to 2,800/1,500. (20:45) Gem-Knight Quartz (my personal favorite) can 1.) Serve as the "Gem-Knight" material for this card or 2.) serve as the fairy-type material for this card, AND can do so after having set the fusion spell to bring this card out herself. ... she can also set Future Fusion/ Over Future Fusion to in turn send Ancient Gear Golem from the deck to the grave. This doesn't help traditional AG decks much since the Ancient Gear archetype doesn't have relatively much GY support rn, but I digress. (21:55) & (22:31) The primal being token brought to the field by Nibiru should count for these IIRC. Pyroxene Fusion (35:27) might be able to pull this off.

@23gameoverlord Год назад

Ah Crystal Knights, my old confidant how love using you and your brutal combos. Though I feel Nova did miss in not talking about the Rank 4 monster Cairongogon, sure it's not a Gem-knight by name it's made out of Gem-knight monsters but it can also provide protection for key cards by spending a xyz unit to change to a new target.

@tempestgreen1125 Год назад

I think the coolest thing is it’s not made out gem knights, but gem knight. Crystal Zinc and Master diamond are all the same person, with this corrupted monster being a malformed being of all 3

In addition to Dark Calling, tossing in Evil Hero Adusted Gold with it gives you a Dark Calling searcher, the Fiend for the Dark Gaia material, AND a Light attribute for Seraphinite.

Crystal Rose, a symbol of Julia and Zuzu's "Friendship". That Julia's story and she is sticking to it. Which is funny because the Gem-Knights archetype was meant to symbolise Jaden & Jesse's "friendship".

@maaoruzketo Год назад

Easily my 2nd favorite archetype, just behind Monarchs. Both decks just suffer from consistency issues. Gem-Knights have no on field protection and can burn through your own hand without replenishment, while Monarchs suffer from bricking hard and Ash Blossom/veiler/impermanence stopping their turn

@Robbbbinator Год назад

@pokeperson1000 Год назад

@Y0sh1no5am 5 месяцев назад

Gem-Knigh Ruby just an awesome Ace monster as it's piercing damage and gaining atk points from a gem monster in the graveyard. U can do up to 6500 piercing Damage. Its huge, Its like Flame wingman but more devastating. I love Topaz too even its 1800, doing Flame wingman's super effect and get to attack twice. Hell yeah.

@Yunglex313 Год назад

I forget which Tales of theme that is, but big ups for using it... I feel like it's a remix of one of Tales of Vesperia's battle themes.

@josephdull2248 Год назад

My problem with the gem knights support is that it made the deck worse. They were so scared to make the FTK better, they restricted the support to only going second. Then they gave the fusion Cross eyes because it doesn't know if it wants to go first or go second. They didnt enhance the decks going second ability at all. And now your decks LESS consistent because you are nearly 100% relying on black garden. Before you could manage without black garden with some hands,but not anymore. The new support takes up valuable resource space where they're bricks without black garden. The deck is actually more consistent in doing it's FTK with pre support lists. But that's beside the point ig

@tempestgreen1125 Год назад

I totally agree with you. It’s funny how the best card imo (brilliant rose) is literally a shitter unexpected dai. I do think you could be more favorable to gem quartz setting a fusion from deck IF block + brilliant were unbanned. Those are some crazy cards but scatter is just so bad

Hey, quick question cause I’m a bit confused. You link to the gem knight vid in the description, but in the video it seems you’re mostly talking about the gem knights from an in-game perspective instead of lore like you are in the short, is there a video where you go over this part of the Duel Terminal lore like in this short?
