Oh no 

Usually love watching josh but the nonstop paleo games have become unwatchable for me 🥲

In a format where link decks are the dominant force, setting 5 backrow and flipping Karma Cannon might not be the worst idea.

​@@rezzytheskyguyI mean it's that or summon snake eyes ash

@@BlackBeartic229 nah. theres plenty of viable decks that arent snake eyes.

Paleozoic Circular (Level 2 Aqua Water) - Once per turn, you can special summon one Rank 2 Aqua monster from your Extra Deck; special summon this card from your hand and one copy of “Paleozoic Circular” from your hand, deck, or graveyard, and if you do, add up to 3 “Paleozoic”traps from your deck to your hand.

I mean hey There were plenty of enablers prior Example: the light rank 3 djinn monster We just didn't have *the best one*

I hope so, the whitewood cards are so cool

I feel that white forest runick is really really powerful, probably the best runick variant we've had until now, but realistically it's just not gonna compete with fiendsmith snake-eyes. That deck is a beast, and it might be even stronger than full power tear. It's almost guaranteed to be a tier 0 and unfortunately we won't get to see how the new decks perform in the competitive scene until it's gone.

​@@kuroneko687Is this a joke? Snake Eyes Fiendsmith is at the same level as Yubel and Tenpai in the INFO meta, unless multiple decks can be tier 0 somehow

Yubel is good but you can stop them decently easy snake eyes is a bunch of one card combos and there all extenders it can play through multiple interruptions and still set up a hell of a board and with fiendsmith it gets worse yubel is easy enough to stop and tempi is a going 2nd deck

@@victortinoco5207 Tenpai dragon will be noticeably worse than the other two decks, but I could maybe see the fiend link deck keeping up with snake eyes.

Link Monsters are definitely the most ridiculous mechanic to be put into the game. No levels, tuners, any two random extenders becomes a monster that can end up creating an entire board by itself.

Link 1 was a mistake

​@@chittasticchitta1164 link monsters in general were a mistake

​@@fakerererererertraptrix Sera isn't a mistake. What is a mistake are generic links that climb you for free at link 1 and 2

Little Goddess isn’t broken. Hell it’s not even good as Underworld Goddess because her actual effect leaves a lot of room for interruption. Fiendsmith is the one that is broken.

Damn fiends

tbh it's 3 monsters, summoning engraver from deck doesn't do anything on its own

I mean yes, but tbh as someone who played during that time full Orcust combo was so crazy because you either established Babel or Crescendo with a Ding, and that dramatically was far and above the ceiling of what every other deck would consistently do, especially in MR4; Fiendsmith is nice but offers less technically in what it brings to the endboard relative to the power level of the format. It's more so it gives you a ensured, very large consistency boost for very low card investment while being flexible enough to convert in various things for your endboard.

I'm bout to make Fiendsmith Orcust 😎

​@@AzzyRealCaesar is kinda busted, tho. If you already have snake-eyes combo you just play through nib for free and have a summon negate.

this is ironic

this is 10x better than Adventure engine, no normal summon effect restrictions

@@GrandChaseHotStuven For real, it's going to be wild. There's so many ways to have two monsters on the board, and Fiendsmith seems to be able to combo with nearly everything. Like, even Halq needed a tuner.. Edit: Thinking about it, 1 Bonfire = Fiendsmith combo. Bonfire search Poplar, Poplar's Special and search for Original, Linkuriboh, Poplar effect, Original send Poplar for Oak, Oak revive Poplar. Oak Special Flamberge, Moon your opponent, and start Fiendsmithing, with 2 extra level 1s to play around with.

@@GrandChaseHotStuven card for card though, the adventure engine generates more card advantage for the normal summon restriction. - Omni negate that shuffles itself back to deck - free equip spell that protects by battle and also returns something to hand - activates another spell from deck that generates the engine all over again on the next turn At the end of the day, fiendsmith pretty much really only gets you a link 2 and a beatrice or a caesar AND takes up 3+ valuable extra deck spots and a maindeck brick (lurrie).

Me too these last few years Konami has been making the most unfair broken archetypes ever. Literally from ishizu tearlaments, to snake eyes, and now fiendsmith,

​@@jordanduran859yeah ocg brainrot design at its finest. But don't worry guys Maxx c will balance these decks~ocg player/idiot

People are hyped but nothing comoares to tearlaments. The fiendssmith are op yeah but now decks plays into droll really fast or a kashtira unicorn shuts down like 5 extra deck monsters and 5 main deck

@adrizay5320 Yeah bro just go first or hard draw droll, skill issue

Just play Cherries. In a deck that doesn't care about extra. And open it every game. It's called Hearth of the Cards. Or cheating.

And shifters:D

@@armadeyaShift will hard carry that deck.

@@darknessnaxxion Watch them ban shifter when it starts fucking over fiendsmith.

@@bobby45825brother shifter fucks over everything that card must go

I’m thinking they’ll ban the link 1

Ban mini Goddess would be the most stupid ban of all time

but in SHS case they banned the link 1 which was a old card at CYAC's release

@@Animexdraco No, it wouldn't especially if we get a LIGHT Fiend TCG exclusive high rarity archetype. Honestly I was betting on that instead of importing Goddess as a Super/Commom (but the outrage would have been real)

@@VenatorXVenator if they do that, the deck just dies. They can’t do that for at least a year. If they ban Closed Heaven, that stems the bleeding a little bit. It would be weird to release this card and then ban it instead of just…. Not importing it at the same time as Fiendsmith comes out. Those boxes of INFO won’t sell themselves, I guess. 😔

so is link-2 kisi-kil

Melomelody the Brass Djinn is also a light fiend. 3 Axis Fiendsmith combos??????

So is the entirety of the non "The" fabled monsters

@@Raminator243 SNAKE EYES IS FINISHED, NEW TIER 0 FORMAT UNLOCKED -- TIER 3 AXIS??

Thats 2 level 4s tho, new white womean is any 2 effect monsters (a thing that matters in snake eyes)

Ocg didn't. Doubt tcg does.

​@@rezzytheskyguyI don't tcg banned the link 1 for SHS and also took the initiative to ban the omni negate synchros.

Or limit engraver

@@fasce Nah that's the OCG hit 1 month before the TCG list.

Just make a rank 3, a rank 4 or a synchro 5.

Me and my friend were just talking about this, I think that will be the underrated build this format

Very true, they are Light Fiends good idea *{::>_

I mean, yea you can access fiendsmith whenever you want, but my guy, the deck sucks so hard and fiendsmith alone ain't too problematic. Don't get me wrong it's still a pain in the ass but without something around it supporting it it's "just" a problematic 1 card combo

🤨🫵 😵‍💫💨

It works but isnt needed for going second and doesnt make going first that better. So probably you wont add "useless" card

It works but at the same time with Tenpai you want to otk,and Fiendsmith is good to establish a board,a thing you don't really want to do with Tenpai

Probably but why would you do that?

Da muss ich heftigst widersprechen 😊

@@thesecretagent3443 ähh.. ja gut.

@@denisaveri9833 will ich auch hoffen 😏

Uh... No. You must be new to Komoney's intentions.

@@flawless1237 wait what new Omni negate?

​@@Raminator243 my mistake, it negates face up cards on the field which isn't quite as good but still broken for a deck which already does so much

@@dhantefranklin336 I started taking an interest in competitive yugioh right after kash format. I knew what they were like but hoped they would do better, disappointing but hardly surprising

Judging from the picture it's a Common or Super (Has plain white text for name). Definitely leaning towards Super

@@dailupwarlord ty

Regardless of how many copies of Fiendsmith Engraver you play, You will likely still need the Fabled Lurrie as a brick so 3 is likely still the best. I might try to get away with 2 tho lol

Drawing more cards means you'll see your breakers and sideboard cards more often. Also there a MUs where you'll draw more than 2 cards.

That means that lack of interest isn't reaching a new high. Thats a wild and oxymoronic statement bordering on dropping the "oxy" entirely. Ya'll need to stop being such melodramatic little children

@@rezzytheskyguy it feels like you are overreacting to what you consider an overreaction. Where I live, if they don't want to play, they don't. That's fine. In other places, people feel compeled to play this game, even if they hate it.

@@PatricioMarino if by every metric the numbers are going up (attendance, sales, etc) then by every metric that objectively says that *interest* is not going down. Interest is rather going up. Capische?

@@rezzytheskyguy not true, as explained above.

@@PatricioMarino my guy your local scene or "where you're from" is not indicative of the game as a whole. You're absolutely tripping. I could counter-argue by saying that "where im from" there are 3 different shops that run locals on 3 different days and there are 20+ competitors at each who are all motivated to compete and play the game. But i didn't use that argument because your statement is objectively wrong and easily disproved by every metric, number and data point.

The format is fine

​@@rezzytheskyguyis not fine the 1000 usd tier 0 deck got another 300 usd upgrade

Ofc they need to ban Flamberge and limit Ash and Bonfire

@@lucasalarcon3230 ya'll need to stop with the $1000 bs. The deck isn't even half that let alone $1000. Cut it tf out

​@rezzytheskyguy Yeah! It's A LOT MORE than $ 1000!

It’s patterns. Right now the problem is snake eye has been: around for too long, has a playstyle that necessitates quantity over quality of answers, has a potential grind game a control deck would kill for AND IS GETTING BUFFED because the engine in the next set is so blatantly overturned. They have power creep (positive) like pote format and then power creep (derogatory) like phantom nightmare and infinite forbidden

Damn brat ruining my game. Errata is needed 💢💢💢

Its not that it "ruined" the game it's just not a fun format plain and simple. The formats between ariseheart's ban and the release of snake-eyes weren't complained about almost at all for example cause they were fun to play in. The thing with mulchummy isn't about the card being "too good" the reason people complain is because it's a secret rare when it's a generic staple that you might want to play in your side deck but it will be too expensive for a lot of people.

Bro must love another tier 0 format for the umpteenth time in a row.

@@spyro2002 look here is the things i see Because tcg players hype bad cards and want cards that are not the main problem to be banned Thats lead to where they are now Multchumy for example is a rare in the ocg however tcg players were so loud in saying its another maxx c and its good and will be played ( when its so obvious you will probably side deck this against floo only ) konami see them hyping such terrible cards and make its rarity high No its not a stable there is no way you playing this going 2nd cards that will probably give u two random draw over playing board breakers and hand traps The other thing look at tcg (banlist predictions )its so horrible and bad Lets talk about snake eyes alone They want to ban oss , which ja funny af because banning this mean you want play diabellstar package and your main combo with ash is absolutely not affected but it just affects other rouge fire decks that use diabell oss Banning oak or flameberge is the best to kill the deck since tcg players will never stop complaining about a deck unless it’s actually dead like kashtira losing their ace

The format may not be doomed, but people's wallets are.

Lmao, we're currently at an Tier 0 format for more than 7 months with the best deck by far being untouched by banlist and Konami is delaying the lista on purpose to force people to deal with Snake-Eye for longer. But yeaaah, people shouldn't really complain right 😂
