The New Yu-Gi-Oh Thread: Construct Joins Stratos in the Halfway House

It’s literally every single Secret and Ultra from LTGY to LVAL…except for the Noble Knights for obvious reasons. I can only imagine the horror when someone pulls Coyote.

Loving the pure artifacts. Based Durendal causing so many ragequits

Do Deluxe Editions have better pull rates?

Uh…not really. Not from what I noticed. Plus the DUEA Super Edition sucks.

It’s back fellas. A card we thought would never see the light of day again is back.

Raigeki? Lol

HAT will still dominate

No, obviously I meant Magician of Faith to 3. >_> Yes, Raigeki has returned…and it should say something that it’s not even staple status.

There’s too many things out there immune to destruction.

Dark Hole is already a side-deck card, so, really mid-to-low tier decks got screwed.

Glow up bulb and synchro plant to one is pro though. might revive a synchro plant deck

Immune to destruction isn’t the issue. Actually there aren’t that many relevant cards that are immune to destruction. Main ones are El-Shaddoll Winda and I guess you can throw in the Stardust Twins.

The ISSUE though is that everything floats and replaces itself. Shaddolls will go off, Burning Abyss will go off. Satellars will either negate it, or just replace it with Altair. Yang Zings go off. Qliphorts will just go into the Extra to come back the next turn. It doesn’t cause much of a huge change in gamestate.

However something it does decent is clear a field to potentially accelerate a win. Burning Abyss only get effects once per turn and Dante and Vergil don’t replace themselves immediately on the field. The only Shaddoll that replaces itself when destroyed by card effect is Falco…and it only recurs itself, Yang Zing Creation (the main plus machine outside of Path) is only once per turn, Qlips remain off the field until next turn and Satellars aren’t simple floaters.

It’s a decent way to sneak lethal damage if necessary, or possibly force a strategy to burn more resources than planned. It’s certainly nowhere near the staple status it used to be (which again, is certainly telling of how this format has gone) but I can see it getting play, especially with Soul Charge down to 1.

Anyway, the MAIN thing to note about the list is once again, what wasn’t hit. And that’s Vanity’s fucking Emptiness. Still at 3, which means every deck that has to Special even a bit is going to have to run at least double-triple MST (and only double if you have on theme S/T destruction).

I missed mof being at three xD i iust never expexted raigeki being legal again haha

Thankfully, just in case, I already own a LOB Raigeki.

Shadolls got better . . . =\

I love how this format is basically the same, but even faster.

Thankfully, I’m still building my slow, outdated deck lol

Uh…in what universe did Shaddolls get better due to the banlist?

Shadolls in general don’t run a lot of destruction cards to begin with, thanks to graveyard shenanigans. Raigeki basically gives them a new toy. While this is technically a winmoar card for them, I think it benefits them more against rogue decks that could potentially have a good matchup against them.

Yeah, but here’s the issue.

They lost Super Poly to 1, and it was arguably their most powerful card, especially post NECH.

Soul Charge goes down to 1, severely limiting the variants of the deck that can be run making it easier to zero in on them in the Side Deck.

ROTA goes up to 3, which means Satellars got better.

They aren’t massively hurt by the list, but they certainly got no better just because Raigeki comes back. Besides, there’s one Rogue deck I know has a good matchup against them and that matchup only got better against Shaddolls due to the list.

Which rogue deck is that? The only one I can think of is Madolches.

My main deck. Raccoons.

Never heard of them. o.o
