In previous videos we discussed all of the coolest and strongest monsters that evolved into Fusion, Synchro and Xyzs monsters and how their particular upgrade fared in the competitive metagame, or how they managed to reference or callback to their original counterparts.
So now it’s time to cover the best Pendulum Evolutions in the game, the ideas and themes they represent and why they managed to see competitive play.

I can't emphasize enough how much I love that these lists not only cover how the original differs mechanically, but also anime, lore, or aesthetic reasons as well. Makes it so much more entertaining than just explaining the text on the card, as let's be honest, a huge portion of the fanbase got into it for the visuals, so they deserve some examining.

@SoxUnleashed Год назад

Great video DuelLogs but one correction for sure needs to be made. Endymion the Mighty Master of Magics Pendulum Scale Effect doesn't destroy cards up to the total of spell counters used for its summom (IE 6) but rather based on how many cards you currently control that can have spell counters placed onto them (IE with a maxed out board would be 11) [6 monsters including Endymion, 4 Potential Spells and Traps (5th one was where Endymion was in scale) and 1 for the Field Spell. Other than that amazing video!

@YasserDjoko Год назад

And it's a non targeting pop, which is another great perk. Endymion doesn't get the praise he deserves as one of the most useful boss monsters in the game.

@@YasserDjoko "Also probably because of how generally non linear a Mythical Endymion deck's play style can be" definitely this, I was just watching Lithium's old video from 4 years ago, when Endymion debuted in the OCG, and a lot of people were shocked that the deck had apparently flopped, but then you would check out the one list that Lithium showed in that video from some random OCG tournament and it was dreadful, absolute garbage that only someone who doesn't understand the mechnic would come up with.

As a Yuya-based pendulum player (yes in this hellish meta) I love this! I play performapal, magician, and odd-eyes cores but am updating to Z-ARC centered when overlord comes out

@darryljack6612 Год назад

I think what i like most about pendulum evolutions over all other evolutions. Is that there is an in anime reason as to why a monster might be a pendulum. With the rebirth of everyone into the pendulum dimension at the end of Arc-V. Not only that but it seems that a lot of pendulum evolved monsters even have in lore reasons as to their evolutions like in the case with Endymion. Also i love how you made this list not just with playability in mind, but also taking into account a card's lore and or relation the anime.

@Tuskor130 Год назад

Honestly card evolutions is one of my all time favorite aspects of Yugioh. It's always such a delight going to my local shop and getting like 8 packs of the newest set just to check out the new cards and seeing stuff like Mimicking Man-Eater Bug, Dark Dimensional Soldier, Fierce Tiger Monghu, and Maha Vailo, Light of the Heavens. I like how this game has gone on for long enough that iconic old cards can just be given modernized evolutions, and it's always fun seeing how antiquated effects get redone to fit the standard gamestate. Hell, we just got an archetype that supports HUNGRY BURGER. This game is so cool.

@mateusrp1994 Год назад

One cool thing about Endymion is not just how better and stronger at manipulating spell counters he became, but how he became more efficient as well. Whenever he uses his negate, he has to return a monster you can place spell counters on to the hand to do it, but he gets any spell counters that monster might had, meaning there's no waste of spell counters with him.

@alfhifauzan4307 Год назад

Unless you return endymion himself with spell counter. It will be wasted

@hexyboo2796 Год назад

And then you can just re place the card you returned, which will likely be pendulum, meaning you just technically used a spell for more counters

It should be noted that Benkei was based on a real historical person. The real Benkei was a warrior monk who served the samurai lord, Minamoto no Yoshitsune, who is represented by Prodigy Warrior. Benkei was said to have died standing after fighting to the end, defending his lord and stopping their enemies from claiming his head. Gong and Yuya's bond mirror Benkei and Yoshitsune's friendship.

@ianr.navahuber2195 Год назад

It lets me feel at peace with SuperheavySamurai's playstyle became like infernity's extra deck vomit machine playstyle. it at least fits with gong's character arc. now the only thing remaining to bring it full circle is support that rewards you for going back to the original SHS playstyle of "attacking in DEF Position" as a "the style may change, but the tradition still lives own" (besides just handcapping you by not playing S/T)

@daniel1004x Год назад

@cdg670 Год назад

I loved how you explained each card's evolution and the functioning of their respective engines or archetype while also pointing out the relationship between the lore and the mechanics and how the actual characteristics of the cards reflected the story of the characters and events implied. I'd love to see you do a series in which you narrate and explain the stories of the archetypes and different cards involved in said stories, while showing how those events and characters are portrayed in the actual mechanics and way the archetype and cards work, just as you dis here. I don't know if you have done something like that already, but I don't see that others have done it in such a detailed way as you did in this video; so, if would be awesome if you consider it as a possible idea for a new series. Thanks a lot for the videos. ❤

@ianr.navahuber2195 Год назад

Seing DuelLogs talk about the lore / flavour / anime / manga reasons for the card design, is so fascinating to see and hear 24:50 I really wish Retrain Big Benkei AT LEAST had the Pendulum effect: " "Superheavy Samurai" monsters on the field can attack while in face-up Defense position, and if they do, apply their DEF for damage calculation." So it at least let you have the option of the original SHS style. As even if it completely powercrepts Big Benkei, it's legacy still lives on

Found it really odd that you didn't mention at all that Archfiend Eccentrick also synergizes with a lot of Archfiend monsters (including Heiress) by triggering their "when destroyed by card effect" effects.

Endymion doesnt destroy cards up to the spell counters removed. After being summoned it counts how many cards you have that can have spell counters then destroys up to that many. Also it needs at least 1 spell counter on it for its targeting and destruction immunity

The last time Zefra was actually good as an engine was shortly after Swordsoul came out. I topped a couple tournaments with pendulum swordsoul using the Zefra engine. Since the scales were Wyrms they allowed me to reveal them for the swordsouls. It edged out the mirror match against Tenyi Swordsoul quite often due to the backrow the Zefra engine could snag. Chixao and Baronne backed up with Divine Strike and Nine Pillars was just gross.

And yeah, I would personally consider Accesscode to be an evolution of Decode Talker. Not by way of effect (Though the ATK gain can kinda be generic among the Code Talkers), but because of the Skill that the main protagonist uses, Storm Access. Storm Access to access Accesscode is a neat way of referencing the bond that the main protagonist and Ai had, as it encapsulates the evolution of the Code Talkers, especially since it's one Link Rating higher than the other more traditional Code Talker monsters.
