The Not So Bad Meta | Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links 

Some Stray Thoughts Salad: still love it, but it hasn't changed too much I didn't really want to talk about it for the 200th time. S-Force: still recovering from multiple ass-kickings so I'm just not ready to talk about it yet man (Alich solos goin first tho) Blue-Eyes: fun, everywhere, kinda disrespected a little too much, but dear lord it is an awful match-up for Burning Abyss. Kicked my ass so many times it's not even funny, but I know it struggles against most other things, but it had my number bro Ancient Warriors: a little too late for this video, but they look damn good so far Red-Eyes: how much support do you need to continue to be underwhelming? Madolche: GET OTKED BOI Abyss Actor: Sealed Tombs is crazy, AA is one of the best kept secrets in this meta Burning Abyss: still my favorite deck in the game by far

AM I DREAMING? WE GETTING A CHRISTMAS PRESENT EARLY THIS YEAR!!!

The Goat Eagle is back ❤

We’re just glad to have you back man - happy holidays everyone!

When the world needed him the most, he came back 😭❤️ Love the video! I like how you bash 🪓 everything in the meta. Against the system like Eminem 😎😎🙌 Keep it up bro and welcome back🫡🫡❤️

4:49 the easiest counter to it is disrupting the second summon. if your opponent for example summons lil-la with an empty field try to negate it's effect or disrupt the summoning of ki-skil with book of moon, compulse, etc

Glad to have you back man, love your content.

King is back

The Eagle is back, Holy cow 🐮 We should make a sacrifice for the gods 😂

Wait he’s back! Loved your DL vids my dude

Happy to see you back again bad times don't last forever and your opinion on rush duel is 100% valid

I'll always be there when you upload even if it takes 10 years

Eagle man has returned!

3:10 they probably thought "surely it will do nothing."

The one and only long time ghost btw nice video can’t wait for the other one respect bro ❤️❤️

he is back!

Great content

AB is a beast; GREAT VIDEO suscribed!

Welcome back Ghost Eagle

Mama bird is back 🖤

it's crazy looking back at this how not that long ago it was and how drastically power crept the game has gotten since the new year and the ridiculous skills we've gotten lately, gandora and live twins are just fair compared to stuff like mayakashi and tachyon galaxy now

Nice your back! Well my favorite deck right now is rokket. After kogging with them twice. Also evil twins is kinda ok but sad that they are a triple box reset. But anyways glad too see you back uploading again Ghost.! 🎉 Kind regards a old friend 😊

I missed you too much bro, welcome back.

Love the meta (minus tachyon) Love the vid 😂

First vid of yours, and new fan

Is good to see you again. It's been a while.

He's back he's back omg

Dawg welcome back

Bro called himself a sideman RESPECT

The return of the King! Im glad that Ancient Warriors appear, so i can actually play them alongside my everlasting Dinos and War Rocks in DL. As for meta, im just bored by the skills for setting everything. Yes, boss monsters are hard to summon, so they need to see some easy play, but this is too much by my opinion. They have been summoned before, but that looked far cooler

Omg u back

Reached kog with orcust lightsworn a few minutes ago. It was so satisfying to wipe out full Neos or Tenyi boards with no targeting removal.

GHOST IS BACK LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO

Don’t mind me just rewatching ever ghost vid cuz he’s the best ❤

Heck yeah glad to see you back GE. I am expecting a video on Raid Raptors is in the works?

Woah A Ghost Eagle Upload I must Be Dreaming lol

I don't know why konami doesn't want to at least give us some salad support

Missed you bud 😅

Overpowered skill effects aside, I like the skills that let you normal summon ur boss monsters(Red eyes, DM,etc).

Holy shit your posting again

Rokkets is my personal favorite deck both IRL & DL. I don't entirely see the problem with it having access to limit 3 cards, it does have to sacrifice at least 1 slot if you want to counter certain meta choices on Silverokket however i don't own IDP in duel links so there's that. But to me it feels like every single deck needs to run those limit 3s with the state of the meta or else it won't be able to get off the ground. If you think they need more of a hit though, i feel like Furious is probably the best limit 3 hit, however may hurt other decks that run it too. Seems to me that your problem is more so there not being in archetype options to end off on. And i get it, every single game i tend to make void ogre & Draco Berserker first turn, if i can't get Evilswarm Knightmare It's always kinda the same gameplan and same 2 things locking the opponent out of things, sometimes even just being a win right there. I don't understand as much why Draco berserker is just an immediate win to you though? Unless my opponent plays into it's battle phase effect it's not going to OTK on it's own in my experience. I wish we would get some of the borrel extra deck monsters, like i kinda feel like we can get Borreload Excharge at least, or Borrelguard, but currently there's only Borreload and Furious as the in-archetype bosses to make while the 2 i mentioned aren't *that* great but can give more in-archetype options I wonder if borrelcode would be too much or not for the meta game. This deck hasn't gotten in archetype support in DL for like a year and it's still going strong. About the skill; Aside from Dillingerous dragon which can allow for a easier borreload dragon it's literally just if you ran Striker dragon in the real game, except it's not taking up a extra deck slot. I think it's overall fine, especially with the prevalence of backrow removal, plus it does suck to pull your 1 Boot sector. Also about Rokket Tracer: I'm not sure what you mean by it being flawed? When i realized the combo with it blowing up stuff that was already going to the grave i thought it was intended, to mirror Revolver in the anime being a lot more intelligent with his moves in duels and actually skirting around certain ways the game plays. But if it couldn't do this then the deck itself would be a lot slower and not have nearly as much versatility. Overall i tend to find that i wish rokkets/borrel/Topologic would of had more extra deck prevalence outside of Links; there's really only Furious & Savage, Excharge is really meh, and Borrelcode, Borreload, Borrelsword, Borrelend & Topologic Trisbaena are kinda the only other good in archetype options. Although, despite wishing it had more in archetype choices i do like how it can fit so many different options into the deck, but for that perspective i still wish it had more options for customization. But i respect your opinion on the deck, i just overall think it's in a perfect spot with one or two issues. Would love to get even just 1 more card for the deck soon but think Konami's still going to hold off on it.

Alternative title “fuck the meta (again)”

Dude its so weird I just read that community post like 2 days ago and you just happen to come back eh? Not saying I'm not happy :D

I think Tenyi, being the top tier deck, is actually a good thing. It is not a go-first-deck that spam interaction, it just a deck that has good recovery. it requires you to think of resource management and versusing against all other decks and mirror match, you still need to know what you are doing. Rather than like orcust or like Salamangreat, where distinctively, going first basically nets you a win due to the board interaction (because of the powerlevel, as well as starting with 5 cards rather than 6), tenyi only has one from berserker, which isnt that strong incomparsion to something like a omni negate or Non-targeting pop with full recovery (as well as just setting 2 or 3 cards to field). The only thing that i think that is unfair is the skill that gives you mekk-knight crusadia, as one of its "weakness" is the end board and super late game (once you run out of tenyi's and boss monsters), but with the link 4, you basically are given a super boss monster that is impossible to be outed.

Honestly, i feel we're living in such an awkward state where once again an ability makes the deck function like pre-nerf Cyber Style, BLS is an example of that and no doubt about it that Konami smoked a big one with freeing Neos Fusion, it's just really dumb that an ability is what makes a deck functional, gives free resources and not to mention how its very easy for them to run any handtraps or staples. Other than that the only thing that i was really worried and i've honestly been against were Altergeist, because oh god, i've had the most boring ass long games against them, the only good thing is that they can't access to the limit 3 traps if they use 3 Meluseek but even then the games become just plain long and tedious, not to mention the fuckton of traps they usually tend to run, just a complete waste of time.

Duel Links' current meta > Master Duel's current meta Yeah I said it.

DL is all about the Skills, if not it will be tcg and ocg all over again. Is about the characters, anime.

That something that i really dislike with DL when i did try to return and play some deck. I have nothing against skill but i hate dumbassly broken skill that do everything .

after watching this i think im gonna give live twin a shot

Idk if this is intentional, but silly lil ghost rare looking pfp for silly lil ghost eagle 🗣🗣

About rush duel just play Romin SelfTK for... Reasons, yeah. Reasons.

This is why I don't push further than platinum

I understand your opinion but, my love for hero deck( any deck that use hero cards) denied your opinion about the eternal bond. Duel link make alot of deck hard to play and alot of deck easier to play, so an op skill will always be necessary. In the end, it just a game and I want to summon my neos and yubel that all. Nice video thought. PS. I also hate the skill determination to fight

IM FIRST JUST LIKE OLD TIMES

HE UPLOADED!!?!?????

Duel Links Meta Is boothless

Yubel is AIDS encarnated Live Twins is irritating Altergeist fookin snoozzzfest and cancer Tenyi is alright, they don't even need staples Gandora needs a tweak just for gandora cards been used there, i cleaned my enemy's board and he had one card just to summon gandora before he cleaned both boards and Gandora boosted itself up to 8k atk. Trickstars are annoying but tolerable, i get mad when they throw me 2 o 3 consecutive dark holes tho, same as Salamangreat. Lunalight is on its way to become a f2p Gandora Orcust deck but pure Lunalight is okay.

First

wait a damn second how old are you? You learned synchro first??? I am the most decrepit old man of all time holy shit. fr tho i’m only 26 i’ve just been into yugioh since kindergarten so it seems like even longer lol

Neos Yubel is a very Brain dead deck

Anytime I see my opponent playing live twins in ranked I just quit... let's not waste anyone's time here

play Geist

Hot take but we need hey truenade limit 2. These purple cards are so strong and all we have to deal with them are two spell cards.

I dont' understand the arguments on the complaint about Yubel skill. Yes the effect is cracked. But why are you saying it has no cost ? There is a cost : you only need to play dogshit cards in your deck and you have to give up your normal summon. Is the deck strong ? Yes it is. Is it broken ? No it isn't. Evil Twin is far more of a problematic archetype than Yubel Neos. Evil Twin is not even more difficult to play than Yubel Neos. The only difference between the two is that Evil Twin relies on its cards and Yubel Neos rely on its skill. But is this the reason why one is problematic but not the other ? It's not a reason. Skills are a mechanic of this game. It's like complaining that Evil Twin is unfair because... it relies on Link summoning ?? Yes it's a mechanic of the game It's not a reason at all. It's problematic because the effects, the drawing abilities, the interruptions... are extremely powerful and makes it stronger than the other decks. Like you said yourself, Yubel Neos isn't even among the most powerful decks. Yes this deck require 0 braincell to be played (but Evil Twin isn't that difficult either), it relies on a skill and not its cards : but both of these points doesn't make it problematic. It's maybe boring to you, not your playstyle (which we can all agree on) : but the deck at its current state doesn't need to be reworked as it is not problematic. Awesome editing and awesome video anyway, if I disagree with more than half its content

And you like the BA infernoid that can banish everything..talk about whining baby that wants to ban every decks until BA becomes tier 0
