There was supposed to be a 3rd Foolish Burial Goods in the profile, I somehow missed it and just kept going, my apologies!
Appreciate this fully
Nice combos :) thank you for doing this video, such a shame the fiendsmith engine so hella pricy
It is, there is some cool stuff you can do with ready fusion though because of the level 6 access
Sick deck.
What’s the combo with sapphire Pegasus? U said him alone gets u to your whole exodia deck, confused as to how it works
I’ll showcase the combos if we get to 25 likes :)
@ZButlerYGO I also have a friend named Zach butler who plays yugioh 🤣
Have you thought about using Kali Yuga in your extra deck?
Not quite sure how you’d reliably get to that
Nice profile but wrong rulings. The passive effects of the millennium monsters only work when they are monsters. The only effect thy have as spells is to summon themselves getting you more cards by showing or paying 2k. So Sengenjin dies to Ogre in the S/T zone.
Yeah I was mistaken haha but thankfully it never came up, but good to know in the future. I should’ve known that but somehow just blanked on basic knowledge lol
First view and comment
9 months later, how are these sleeves holding up? any issues, like the sleeves sticking together, the corners getting bent or splitting easily?
I’ve used em all pretty extensively, I also don’t use a pack for more than a month unless it’s for a casual deck, but they held up incredibly well. I would absolutely recommend them, they’re among my favorite of all time
@ZButlerYGO hows the double sleeving when it comes to fresh new sleeves
Thoroughly enjoyable. I always prefer the matte finish outers to the classic ones, but they’re fantastic
The silent swordsman adds the little extra interaction you nees to survive sometimes and slow them down from being able to break your board. Also i run the deck with a small branded package so when i go into dragoon off of branded fusion and wither draw secrets or search it off black magic anyway i can use swordsman and black magic to go into my favorite card of all time... Dark calvalry
Yeah I’m testing swordsman I’m just not particularly fond of it
Staff my A** don’t tell us how to play a card game 😂😂😂😂
What?
17:26 u can’t SS Dragonling because u have no LS In the GY. Just could don’t ban Raiden before
Pretty sure I was discussing different lines, and mentioned that, but I haven’t watched it back in ages.
@@ZButlerYGO for sure !!
I love this hand test video with LS !
Me recomiendas quitar la impermanence por forbiden lance?
I don’t know that I would do that, impermanence is really important
Great deck, love the Exosisters, BTW have you tried Photon Delta Wing? It's a one card combo, really great.
I considered it, however, the fact that it conflicts so heavily with Martha as well as the removal trap cards is a major detractor
At 16:18, you mentioned you activated martha's effect and went into bagooska, after martha got ash'd. Isn't that illegal, since she has the "the turn you **activate** this effect" wording?
Yeah I misplayed and didn’t realize it until after since ash negates the effect, my bad 😭
@ZButlerYGO, hey, it happens. For sure, you didn't mean it. I, too, made a mistake when I recently played the deck. Like illegally activating returnia, after getting lava golem😂 i misunderstood how returnia worked
How much does this deck cost with all budget options
Probably about $100
I would diffs play grave of the super organsim
Oh yeah that’s gonna be a good one going forward
#superrich🤑🤑🤑
It's Latin, said in English like Carp Ay Dee Umm. The V is a U.
Well now i know! Thanks
Im sure by no means it's original, but my fav deck to play on master duel is a Rokket/ Bystail/ Red Eyes deck. By no means is it perfect. It has 48 cards, lol. But i enjoy it because i created it on my own with no help and so much trial and error. It initially just started as a Red-eyes/ Blue-eyes/ chaos deck. If anyone is interested in hearing about the deck list, I would love to share it so I can keep improving it.
The deck box looks great, do you know if it would hold triple sleeved cards?. Would only need it to hold 55 cards as there’s a new angewomon deck that I’m eyeing 👀😂
I imagine it would!

The issue is the deck suffers heavily in a handtrap format. Theoretically, it’s great against the meta a bit (mostly SE, but doesn’t do much against Yubel, Tenpai or even Voiceless to an extent). However, it’s very fragile. So much so that off Kaspitell, an ogre can kill you. Handtraps hurt it heavily.
Very true! It’s very hard to deal with, it’s a delicate balance. It’s something I think that you have to be aware of, and except as a risk when going into an event. Although with infinite forbidden and the increased size of engines, hopefully it is a weakness that can be somewhat mitigated.
I mean it could have a good match up against voiceless voice, but it depends on the die roll.
@@snaker_574 And that's the issue. It has to win dice roll. It cannot play going second. But even winning die roll, still dies to handtraps
@jumpiestaman100 or to a board breaker/staple. Game 3 I drew shifter, but he had dimensional barrier😢
@@jumpiestaman100Isnt way better going second? The only boards going 1st, the Best they can do is Magnífica with Returnia, it's meh.
Why playing exo and not tenpai? I might have missed a step
There’s more toolbox options theoretically available for a rank 4 deck, that’s all. Plus I really don’t enjoy Tenpai lol
@@ZButlerYGOno ok, i see. I don't like it either but since I understood the vid was about the pick for a big event, i was wondering if Tenpai would just be more solid, as shifter and flood deck too
What’s the ruling with Princess and that spell (like prohibition)? Very curious! Great profile!
If you called princess, then once the chain resolves it can no longer be activated.
This deck is crazy slept on. The floodgate exo’s are a turn skip in themselves. I decided to take out the pot of P and go for 2 thrusts and a talents just bc you always want your traps on the field and it’s been working out so well 😵💫
Just bought the max rarity core of this! I have my Nats deck now! Thank you, Zack!
😂 how did you manage to misspell my name when it’s IN THE CHANNEL NAME
Thoughts on running a second freezing chain? I know it’s a brick, but the though process is you can search the second one out when you detach mirror mage from toad on your opponent’s turn for followup
I don’t think the brick is worth it, the deck suffers from consistency issues already so I’d be aiming to minimize them
I still have one of each.
Congrats! That’s a super cool piece of history
@@ZButlerYGO I was looking to see what the limited edition misprint was worth. I was seeing $50-550 on various sites so who knows.
Just lost to this in bracket, can confirm that this deck pops off 🎉
Ritual 👏 beast 👏 nemesis 👏
I think you have a error in there: Swap Frog can‘t send Nimble Angler to grave because it‘s a Fish not an Aqua monster.
Sprind sends angler not swap frog
The only time swap sends angler to the grave is from your hand to special summon it. Otherwise you’re sending it to yeh grave with sprind, no error here :)
@@ZButlerYGO My bad, I thought you said from deck! Great profile though! :)
Reinoheart looking really weird
Lightsworn is a lot of fun to play
Would enjoy to see a combo video
Im so happy you posted this and to see you have a channel, i love spright very close to my heart as it got me my first top 4 finish playing iblee spright in pote regionals. I gotta ask is the cyberse package not needed anymore as i still see few lists on it
It could probably still be played, though it’s not nearly as strong as it was prior.
did ice barrier get a buff?
There’s some cool new cards!
@@ZButlerYGO Im waiting for more gusto so i can build a busted pendulum deck
Something I’ve been testing is Melodious Spright. The end boards are nuts. It’s a good substitute if you like playing the adventure engine in Spright. Ostinato on its own was like a Apo for 3, vortex dragon, toad, sprint, gigantic, and an angel statue from top hat hare once that comes out.
I’ve tried this too, it’s nuts
@@JordanBonanza-eu3or yeah its nuts. like same amount of cards in main deck as adventure but crazier end board, Only issue really is you end up using the majority of your ED turn one lol
@@lankeysob yeah, also not drawing ostinato is an issue as well
Playing 1 ice barrier monster does not make this ice barrier spright lmao. Nobody is playing the proper package
From my perspective, it’s an engine that changes the trajectory significantly, hence my putting it in the name. Even if small, if it’s integral to the design and philosophy of the deck, it’s worth putting in the name. That’s how I did it in coverage, though I understand where you’re coming from. If you’re bothered by it, dislike the video and don’t watch any more of my content, I will understand completely. That said, I’d love to hear the proper package and I’ll try it out!
As somebody running a Water Pile deck I'd love to hear about your package, mine for testing in Water Pile right now is 1 Georgius, 2 Revealer, 1 Speaker, 1 Mirror Mage, 1 Hexa and 3 Medallion which I considered the minimal package but I only play IRL and I'm still waiting for my IB's in the mail so I haven't tested this package yet.
Melffy Spright is also only two cards: Catty and Pinny. Unchained Labrynth also only has two main deck cards: Shavara and Escape of the Unchained.
I always laugh at people being upset about the name of a deck, when that is literally the least important thing
What is the aledged "proper package"? Every decklist I've seen of this build is on 3x Swap, 1x Mirror and 1x Chains
Is nightmare unicorn still a S:P replacement for a budget Spright deck
You could probably get away with that yeah, obviously it’s going to be less efficient but you’re almost never going into SP when 2 locked
@@ZButlerYGOwhy can’t you make SP while 2 locked?
@@Shinde425 it’s not that you can’t, it’s that you don’t. Usually you’re making SP on their turn.
@@ZButlerYGO Oh okay, I get what you’re saying now.
nice list! might I recommend if you have room adding Salamangreat Almiraj to the extra deck in the rare cases you are going first and open Mirror Mage and 4 hand traps/non extenders, you can turn a normal summon Mirror Mage into full Spright combo by bringing it back with Freezing Chains and linking it and Almiraj for Sprind!
Yeah, that was something I considered, however, I feel that the odds that happening are solo that I would rather not add a card in for that one scenario, when you want to have as much of a toolbox as possible but it’s probably worth the try!
@@ZButlerYGO also to add on to that if they iblee you you can always almiraj to keep on playing. I would add a almiraj. Always expect the unexpected.
You cant use iblee into almiraj when your opponent locked you, sice she was not normal summoned@@KingAnubis21
Turn iblee to almiraj...? @@KingAnubis21
@@DatsuJSB yea I confused it for balelynx my bad. But it's still possible if he normals iblee 🤣.
Hi, what cards can replace the horus cards?
