@@rhymestyle Shadi's deck definitely wasn't bad but it depends heavily on hitting your opponent hard and fast to prevent them from summoning any strong monsters since a single monster stronger than 2300 almost completely shuts it down. Therefore leaving any monsters around for your opponent to tribute is a grave mistake.
Shadi's deck is definitely OP. The games he played with Yami Yugi in the manga were based on riddles, so I would've thought he'd have a Sphinx deck. (Not the Pyramid of Light Sphinxes, the ones that bounce your opponents cards when flipped.)
@@wolfgod6443 Wasn't really an archetype, just a different win condition. Even Exodia decks nowadays barely count as an archetype, because the cards themselves aren't really synergizing with Exodia, but are just drawing cards stacked together. The only real Exodia archetype was that one weird version where you summoned the alternative Exodia.
@@Modie Even with the rare Hunter who uses exodia, the kaibacorps member who uses exodia necrosis and I think a movie uses an exodia variant. No mention of the exodia archetype used by any of the Egyptian characters. Unless you count the games. (Grandpa/Egyptian Grandpa always uses exodia)
Well he won Red Eyes from a Tournament, so he puts him in his deck as Red Eyes still has really high attack points for a card at that time Red Eyes was my guy's pride before Jounochi got the card from him, then Jounochi just got more cards from other people he dueled with, alongside Red Eyes Black Dragon
There was no game where Shadi used ritual monsters. His deck in Dawn of Destiny had cards like Morphing Jars, Goblin Attack Forces, Needle Worm, and Millenium Shield. He had a deck-out, beaters, and stall. He must have not liked others playing Duel Monsters.
While I do know these decks were googled out I do belive it's kind of weird that "someone" didn't check when Ruin Queen came out - it's from 2006 Shadow of Infinity, which also had YGO GX sacred beasts. Then again cyber dinosaur is from 2008...
The way this videos end is killing me bro, they just end mid sentence and I love it. This roulette duels are amazing. Also, it was Doto's time to shine after getting destroyed every single time
“I’m not a god, I’m a fan of dinosaurs” The funny thing to me about this quote is that a fan of dinosaurs usually doesn’t believe in god so it is actually quite the opposite.
just picture rex raptor summoning a jurrac card. buy jurracs might be a 5d's deck but it feels straight out of GX play jurracs in ranked rhyme, i dare you. or at least summon jurrac meteor
You know a really good duelist I watch on youtube once said "You should never homie drop." This duelist is so smart he even plays Thunder Dragon. If you did know Thunder Dragon allows you to-
@@rhymestyle Well you see it's a pretty big brain play. Thunder Dragon allows you to Discard Thunder Dragon from your hand and draw a Thunder Dragon from your deck and put it into your hand. That's not all, It also allows you do draw a second Thunder Dragon from your Deck and place it into your hand. Very advanced play.
I love the Rex and Weevil decks. I have one called pretty poison that I made up in my head as a fan girl who wants to impress both duelist and it utilizes pretty but dangerous cards with effects. Usually utilizing three luster dragons as muscle, with card like needle worm, combined with magical hats and black pendants and malevolent nuzzlers. When you flip needle worm you take five cards off the top of the deck, choosing malevolent nuzzler or black pendant makes each cards effect activate as on the field, so using two black pendants will deal 500 damage for each one destroyed by magical hats ability and you can equip malevolent nuzzler to weaker monsters as a bonus. Not to mention flipping needle worm or man eater bigger gives you the flip effect again, destroying one free monster or dealing another five cards off the top. With three needle worms and man eater bugs you can devastate your opponent and then put in doom dozer as a deck master to send more cards to grave for every damage done. Throw in some giant germs to thin deck out and again deal that five hundred poison damage for each and skull mark lady bugs to boot it lives up to its name. If you put insect barrier and dna surgery in as well with prickle fairy and the perfectly ultimate great moth cards and cocoon of evolution to match with other tough Dino’s or dragons and you got a nightmare fuel defensive deck that truly lives up to the name poison.
I think that Shadi deck is from Yu-Gi-Oh Forbidden Memories on PlayStation 1. That game was hard af and without a gameshark you had to farm cards in order to win no other way lol And its rng for the card reward based on win rank.
@@tajcrawford6558 I added a ps emu to my phone today literally for that purpose lmao been low key thinking about it since 🤣 and deadass lmao I've never played a game with that much grinding when I that age and even then you can win get S rank and still not get the best card you can win 😭😭😂😂😂 but that challenge and my love for yugioh is the only thing that pulls me back lmao I actually loved and still love duelist of the roses and falsebound kingdom lol
Queen of Oblivion was first released in 2006 in the USA. That's one year after Yugioh GX first aired in the USA, which was 2005. Definitely not a duelist kingdom card, let alone even a "gen 1" era card. Even the mentioned Dark Necrofear for Bakura (battle city) came out prior in 2003. Obviously same logic applies to Rex's deck with things like Jurrac.
Shadi if he was using rituals would use stuff like skull guardian and lycanthrope. Just search monsters with xx50 ATK or xx75Atk. Anything like that is janked boomer era.
@@sasir2013 I mean you could say Gravekeeper's are also Ishizu, Marik and Odion. They're from Egypt and actually were supposed to grave keep for the Pharaoh but only Shadi has seen the end of the world in a sense. I mean, I'm just speculating. I don't even remember Queen of Oblivion being in the original show so I personally think Rhyme was right and whoever made the deck just made it up or pulled it from non-canon stuff. I was just trying to think of a reason why he would legitimately have that card.
I think a fun optional rule for this kind of thing could be to say for any deck with no monsters with 2,000 or more atk in it, they get 1 copy of Megamorph. Just to aid the weaker decks in a way that's mostly fair.
A ritual deck made to quickly beat down opponents before they can summon stronger monster loses after letting the opponent stick around and summon stronger monsters, in other news water is wet and the sky is blue. xD I've never seen a homie drop go as wrong as this one. Throw of the century, or atleast of the Duelist Kingdom! I guess that's why we never saw Shadi duel. xD
Ironically enough, Survival Instinct is the perfect set-up card for Infinity Tyranno, who's ATK goes up by 1000x the number of banished Dinosaur type monsters you have... But Rex doesn't play Infinity Tyranno... 😂😂
