Top Ten Yu-Gi-Oh Archetypes Based Around Trap Cards 

Don't teach Judgement Meter how to play Yu-Gi-Oh. Something pure and good will be lost forever if that happens.

One thing I really like about Paleozoic anomalocaris is the ability to just destroy a monster reflects how dominant it was in it's time being one of the first super predators in history.

Evil Arlekino is how the amuzement park guide that just pops up behind you when youre just looking around. Hes scary at first, but then you realize its just Arlekino.

Eldlich in his alternate art is unfazed, he is like the golden sun, he is unbothered, he is flourishing, he is in his column, he is loving life !!

I love the aesthetics of phantom knights, it's like they're "combining" the armor and weapon pieces for their extra deck monsters

As an Amazement player in the TCG I adore you for acknowledging that we exist. I feel seen! 😭

I just always figured the amaze cards were just literal tourist traps. Each pulling in customers in different ways

I love traptrix so much easily my favorite deck to play

Thunder Dragon is still my favorite deck, but Labrynth is the only deck I've tried completely maxing out its rarity. I've got ten Collector's Rares, two Quarter Century Secret Rares and one Starlight. It's just a very aesthetically pleasing archetype. Hope the furniture monsters get foil upgrades in the 2023 Mega Tins.

Judgment Meter says the oddest things and I love it! "I like the one with the skulls. She's just like, this is where I nap. I murdered 7 people to make my pillow." She said it with such joy 💀💀💀

Never realize Traptrix sd came with those. Those are some respect to legacy

*"You just Activated my Trap Card!"* Truly gotta love that Line whenever I hear it.

Top 10 Yu-Gi-Oh weirdest attack names - Axe Slash Bash (Dark Guardian), etc.

Paleozoic just needs it's own Holeutea like card to be a more "modern" trap deck. it's effect just summons itself with discarding a paleo as "cost" to activate the turn it was set. triggering the paleo you just discarded

I love the mirror force cards.

I always viewed Paleozoic as "What if Phantom Knights never had Main Deck Monsters in their lineup?" and still do to this day.

Hooray, Phantom Knights represent woot woot

Traptrix lore is fairly hilarious, and a bit of a commentary on how Konami saw their players. The 'characters' are really just lures used by carnivorous insects and plants, much like how some real life plants have parts that look like food or even breeding mates. Yes, Konami wants you to lure in your opponent with lolis.

25:58 I can't unsee the toast now. Bottom left of the original art, the "negative space" of his cape and the border of the card art kinda looks like a single slice of toast/bread. Seeing how the archetype is based on alchemy and the turning of objects to gold, I can't help but imagine all of the Golden Lord's food turns to gold too. Though, he is a zombie, so not sure how much that'd actually affect him.

For those who just wanna know the list Amazement Apophis Counter fairies Paleozoic Altergeist Dinomorphia Phantom knights Eldlich Traptrix Labrynth

Clearly Amazement went to the various worlds of Yu-Gi-Oh for his ride inspiration and found one of those creatures in the remains of the Ojama's homeland.

Labyrinth is actually quite meta right now as well as traptrix

I feel like the deal with Arlekino is that he’s normally devious, which is why he’s Dark, but his alt form is Light, because that’s when it’s time to stop jerk’n around and protect his friends…or something.

Quick Yugioh rules, then: -On your turn there is the main phase 1, where you can play monsters and spells/traps from your hand, then the combat phase where you can choose attack targets for your monsters, then main phase 2 where you may play cards from your hand again if you want, then you end your turn and the opponent does their turn and so on. -Every turn you're only allowed to play max 1 monster card, unless you do it by an effect saying it's a Special Summon which means it's free and you can do as many of these as you want in addition to your normal card. -The number of stars on a monster is the level. If it's level 1-4 you can play it without paying anything, level 5-6 can only be played down by trading a monster you already have alive and discarding that to play yours (if not using Special Summons, this can take one turn to place it then wait for your next turn to play the upgrade), level 7+ needs to trade 2 monsters instead of 1. -Spells can freely be played on your main phase 1 or 2, traps must be laid down for one turn before you can activate them at all but after that can be activated in anyone's turn anytime you want. -Monster cards with special colors stay in the extra deck instead of the normal deck. Fusion monsters need a card that specifies how to summon it, but the others are Special Summons that just need to trade from specific monsters and are ready to use from the extra deck anytime as if you always have them in your hand: Links just need X monsters to trade for it, Xyz need a combination of monsters of certain levels, and Synchros need a Tuner monster and another monster.

I’d love to see a list of Top 10 YuGiOh archetypes/decks that revolve around a field spell!

Something i love about your Yu Gi Oh videos is the fact that you show a lot of "modern" cards (i'm still in the GX era😁 ) and most of them has really cool art. It means that when you show them, i'm actually searching for an image of those cards on google so that i can save it and maybe later buy them.

Judgement meter its so funny😂😂😂,its a great co host😊

I can't immagine J.M. sitting on anyone in an unfriendly way. I just picture her floating up above them using a Kuriballoon and gently floating down on her words. Glad you joined in J.M.! You are the peanut butter in these top ten sandwiches! Or perhaps the jelly..no..no..you definently make the others jelly with how awesome you are! You stick these ten layers together and make them just sublime to consume! Rich, slightly sweet and lightly salty! I'm gonna stop the peanut butter metaphor now..💛

i think a video where you talk about the most unique yugioh playstyles would make for a fascinating video, like how cardians make you play hanafuda, or super quants emulating the sentai/power rangers franchise.

the only trap id fall for is Judgement Meter

The Traptrix seems interesting.

I now run a traptrix deck. Never thought id run a trap based deck before, but now its easily my favorite deck to play.

I love Traptrix so much. They single handedly made Trap Holes relevant again, and they were always my favorite type of traps. Plus they are all based on insects and plants. Sundew, Butterworts, Tree Ants, Gloworms, Praying Mantises, and the good ol Venus Flytrap just to name a few.

This is how you play Yugioh... You draw a card. You sit there for 10-20 minutes doing nothing. You lose.

“How to Yugioh” It’s like Dungeon Dice Monsters, so you should be able to handle it 🎲

I used Shapesister when I was still playing like 10 years ago XD

Altergeist was my first competitive deck when I returned to the game and got multiple tops with it. I have max rarity on the deck including the core and the traps and with new cards including Malwisp and Adminia, it is pretty competitive again.

5:37 OJAMA LIME LIVES! Also, you aren’t making the Paleo XYZ with your Trap Monsters, you’re making the Toad.

My personal competitive deck is Virus control, which uses both the Lair of Darkness archetype and the Labrynth archetype to supplement the Virus cards.

I had fun playing with Labrynth in Master Duel event and I have fun playing with Traptrix in real life . Both are awesome decks.

I still make use of my Traptrix deck. Mine is more of a swarm control build. I make use of monsters like Parallel Xceed and Lord of Heavenly Prison. I have also found that Exoton Knight make for a nice disruption for my opponent

Hey love your videos on top 10, and was wondering if you had done a top 10 Magic users in fighting games, if not I would be really interested in seeing that in the future. Thanks again for another great top 10

Love the video as I am also a fan of Trap decks. It's like you were born to narrate!

These traps deserve appreciation!

Okay I've watched it a few times and it's pretty good This has been one o the best weeks for Bradley Network ever acutally new MTTL vid, Software agents video and Shorts returns and the Lost Archives and a new Rae Marcel Joint. Good week guys.

Oh yeah, the legendary shipp of Eldlich Golden Lord and Dragonmaid Laundry

I like the traps that act as monsters, that’s useful

these are some interesting sets

Lol never mind I see you did a top 10 sorcerers in fighting games already

No honorable mention for fang of critias. Spell card + trap card = fusion monster. One the only fusions that require non monsters to summon. Or pre-errataed Makyuua as it could let you activate trap cards from the hand which led to mischief and got dark scorpion yellow chick semi-limited....lol traps were great

Lore-wise there are so many creatures/archetypes that live in the Sanctuary in the Sky

You should have included Uria, Lord of Searing Flames in this list. It's one of the most iconic trap-focused monsters of all time and was a viable OTK strat back in the day. These days, it even has its own Continuous Trap, Hyper Blaze, plus the one that gets better with each Sacred Beast you have out

i love playing traptrix but i never noticed the 2800 total until it was said in the video xD

Judgement Meter have beautiful voice, i could listen to her all day, every day, all day every day, all day every day.

The Royal trap archetype I still love to this day! If they can just let traps be more powerful like they used to....

We need to make goblin attack focus in to a full a archetype and at lest one or two boss monster plus a good story show in the cards lots of card

Top equip centric archetypes/series. Ie. Noble Knights, Bamboo Sword, Eye of Timaeus, Evil Eye, Marincess, Inzector, etc.

The second deck I ever played was Traptrix so I was doomed to love this style of play. Hell my favorite deck right now is Dinomorphia (if you need more reason to play it by the way read Ferret Flames, and know it effects Towers monsters) Also does anyone know how Atrax interacts with Jinzo? Which effect wins out?

Um hi mr top ten I love the videos you made and I had a idea maybe you can make a video about the top 10 or something duos with opposite views of things something like Malcom X and dr Luther king jr. and number one has to be professor X and magneto from X men

But what would be a cool list is a top 10 psychic users in fighting games, not sure if you done that yet, but either way thanks for the top 10 videos

MrTopTenList, can you do a top ten of your favorite yugioh characters in the anime?

my best and i most loved deck is eldlich its so cool i wish more support xyz work with banished cards also i love kashtira

Huh, these were very interesting.

Hooray for Dinomorphia

Wait, wait, wait, wait, Dinomorphia has a Counter Trap monster negate?! *WHY* is that card not in Master Duel when we've had two waves of Dinomorphia support?! Dinomorphia is one of my favorite decks because it's goddamn mechs and dinosaurs and because it was one of the only decks I could use during the hyper cancerous Tear format. Plus it can turn off the Kashtira main deck monsters. I feel no remorse using Labrynth

Awesome!

Please don't get confused! The "Lady with an Axe" is Lovely Labrynth of the Silver Castle. But there are still three monsters to come after Arias the Labrynth Butler.

A big like from a Counter Fairy deck pleyer

The main issue holding dinomorphia back is the issue that you have to run bricks to fusion summon

Trap card monsters are great for tributing for Uria

i miss the Old times

I'd explain Yu-Gi-Oh to Judgement Meter

"Minerva Scholar of the Sky"..... any relation to "Minerva Lightsworn Maiden"? :) Loved this video btw

MTTL, you are my trap king

As a Labrynth duelist I only have to say:"I see no god up here, except me!" Also, the figure with the Axe is Lovely. The one we don't know who it is yet, is the red sort on with what seems to be scizzors. Since we are in the garden she is probably the gardener.

I'm happy to hear that Konami supports Traps, I love traps, I'm just disappointed that Astolfo in YGP is a Monster rather than a Trap

I love judgment meter

Thank you Labrynth best deck

Funny that when you were explaining traptrix i got beat by them in master duel 😅 Edit: I played against lab right after that 😮😂

It is a shame that you didn't talk about if any of these decks work with Uria, Lord of Searing Flames.

Top 10 squids - Squid Girl (Squid Girl), Volt Kraken (Mega Man X), Bloopers (Mario), etc.

Who is this voice artist? I hear him EVERYWHERE

Probably gonna regret commenting early in the video but maybe the negative effect of the Amaze trap cards are just because the opponent's monster doesn't like amusement parks. Like they get queasy or nervous or something

Hmm... 2 oddies: (1) VERY awkward that Lair of Darkness, Ladies of Lament + Virus not in the Top 10 Trap decks... any reason why? (2) Hmm... not played by many but Eldlich the Golden Lord, Eldlixir and Golden Land cards works VERY well with Statue of Anguish, Tiki Soul/Curse, Abyss Stungray, Slime / God Slime etc; esp when used with Angel Statue and other Floodgates + board wipes like Dark Hole (Eldlich can be indestructable by card effects), it can easily out any Traptrix boards. Maybe few may know it, but Armory Recall + Moon Mirror Gates are pretty fun with Golden Land and other Trap monsters. SIDE: Best versions of Labrynth and Eldlich are actually both floodgates deck types :^P SIDE: kinda weird that Uria, Lord of Searing Flames is not mentioned in the Tiki section >_< Regardless, cool video on Trap decks :^)

Take a shot every time he says trap

Apothis/Paleozoic 🤙🏻🤙🏻

We need to come up with some decks tbat basically play themselves so Judgement can boot up Master Duel and just click wherever she sees yellow As a fist deck I propose Floowandereeze

J.M. is the traptrix lure for M.T.T.L. that we always fall in for. 💛 Hey J.M.? Is M.T.T.L. a carnivorous plant, insect or arachnid?

I was expecting mirror force to be in here because iconic card in yugi's deck.

Apophis negate face up cards, that include trap and magic cards

So how many times did he say "trap" or "traps"

Light is not good, Dark is not evil. Season 1 of the anime establishes this.

Oh there are definitely friendly ways to sit on people 26:22

Kinda surprised Ninjas wasn't brought up with all their Transformation trap cards.

Also why are the Amazment Assistants Machines? Are they robots or something?

Lol i would like to imagine judgement meter normal summon aleister the invoker and...

Love Dinomorphia

Im currently building altergeist

1:43 Should we teach Judgement Meter how to play Yu-Gi-Oh?
