Actually there are a few monsters that are missing that are staples in Mario Games like the Bullet Bill (which can be reworked into an Spell card that Spawns them) and Paratroopa/Paragoomba (whose wings could be a equip spell) and Dry Bones as well as Equip Spells that changes the Atribute of the Hammer Bros (changing them into Fire Bros and Ice Bros) and one that gives the Koopa Troopas Spears (like how we see them in the Movie) And not forgetting a Field Spell representing Bowser's Kingdom and another Link-4 representing his favored son Bowser Jr

@@alpha34098 Yeah, I had enough monsters as it is, and I went out of my way to make every monster a different Type. Bullet Bills are the same Type as Bob-Ombs, so it wouldn't work. I do like your ideas, though.

I've heard of it, but I've never played it. It sounds a bit like Majistus, though.

I only plan on making videos for my own creations at this moment. The time may come when this may change, but with my new full-time job, it's not today.

Ah, you're right! I just looked at one of them - only targeting a monster is a cost, but banishing it is part of the effect. My mistake! 😆

Tri-Brigade's a good hybrid with this!

@@gmaster1991 Deck Profile and Test hands plz!!!

​@@aboundingvampirekiller2048 I only post one sample Deck per video. If I did a sample for every possible combination of custom hybrids, the videos would be too clunky and take too long. I already have a full-time job, so these videos are churned out slowly as it is.

@@gmaster1991 understood.

Hmm... I don't know. When I was still new at making customs, I designed a Majora's Mask themed archetype that centered on Ritual Summoning the titular Mask itself. It had an effect that summoned a Moon Token, and if it or the Mask wasn't removed from the board in three of your opponent's turns, you would automatically win. Then again, you mentioned the hero's side, not the villain's side. I'll consider your suggestion.

Yeah, I imagine Sonic being that annoying to his adversaries like that!

@@gmaster1991 just made an account for Duelingbook, is there a way to see public decks or find correct ratios? So far I haven’t been able to find anything on that

Thanks! You're right - Droll & Lock Bird is a good answer against Greed. Called by the Grave may help against it, but the emphasis against low leveled monsters makes Crossout Designator a risky proposition.

Good combo! I should specify that the Mobius Genesis monsters can quick attack during the opponent's Main Phase, not the player's Main phase.

Thanks! All of my custom archetypes utilize real cards in their Decks in some way, so players don't spend every turn reading custom card effects.

There's a custom card maker on Duelingbook. You can play customs on a special unrated Dueling Room.

That makes sense. Most of the lords came from different worlds, and most of those worlds are in different games entirely.

Hm... Good question.

Maybe Mega Man copies the effects of each monster he destroys by battle

@@williamdrum9899 Coincidentally, I thought about how Mega Man could work in Yu-Gi-Oh!. The main card should be a Continuous Spell that can summon a Mega Man token in any turn you don't control one (as a reference to players having multiple lives when playing the game). If a Mega Man token destroys an opponents monster by battle, the Continuous Spell gains an effect based on the original Attribute that the destroyed monster has (as a reference to the Robot Masters - six main Attributes outside of Divine is like six Robot Masters from Mega Man 1). Since this is reliant on your opponent using certain monsters, there should also be another Spell that summons a Robot Master token on your opponent's board with whatever Attribute you want. The endgame goal is to have all six Attributes in effect, and certain Attributes have an advantage over certain Decks (like how certain special weapons give Mega Man an edge over certain Robot Masters). What do you think?

@@williamdrum9899 That's too busted, and that's asking players to memorize every single monster that it destroyed in battle throughout the Duel.

@@gmaster1991 Players have to memorize lots of things already that other card games consider "bad card design:" * Whether a search card has a valid target in your deck * Level/Stat increases * Whether a monster in your gy was "properly summoned" * Have you used a hard once per turn yet

I never played Undertale, so I don't know if I could do it justice.

Boons, huh? They sound a bit like Skills from Duel Links, but I like the idea. It could certainly give some lesser Deck types like Gemini or Spirit a way to shine without messing with card balance itself.

@@gmaster1991 The best part is that a bunch of boons could be designed around being lifelines against the most unfair and degenerate strategies in the game, which would in turn potentially allow a slew of cards to come off the banned/limited list since player can opt into pre-installed soft-counters for them. The boons themselves don’t need to be much in that regard, just enough to give the otherwise hopeless deck some breathing room.

Uh, never played that game before. Sorry.

@@gmaster1991 No I mean creating a Deck based on the anime Madoka Magica.

@@siphemanana2551 Never watched it. Sorry.

@@gmaster1991 What a shame🙂‍↕️. You should give it a try when you have the chance

@@siphemanana2551 Between my weekly articles and my CZcams channel, I don't devote much time to watching anime. I'm not sure when that will happen, if ever.

You mean like "White Rose" or Bumblebee"? I suppose that might work, but the Fusion wouldn't work - the Petal Burst Semblance specifically only allows Ruby and one other monster.

Yes the pairing names, something that represents the teamwork of RWBY. Maybe the extra deck monsters can also be treated as the two Huntress monsters. That way the extra deck monsters can also uses the semblance cards.

@@9starcirno I suppose the Extra Deck monster names could also be treated as its components. That's all that's necessary to use the Semblances. I'll consider this idea.

You're quite welcome! I agree - the show is very enjoyable. It wouldn't have lasted nine volumes otherwise. If the show doesn't come back, I'd like to this this archetype is a worthy tribute.

RWBY's whole gimmick revolves around coming up with whatever Extra Deck monsters you want. There's no archetypal restrictions, so you can just use anything. My Deck example includes Ultimaya Tzolkin, for example. It's supposed to be a generic toolbox/hybrid Deck. It's a reference to how the show's writers just do what they want without any real planned endgame.

​@@gmaster1991Yeah I know you can use anything, but "anything" is not explicitly designed to be used with it. That's what I'm getting at, if I wanted to build pure Huntress I literally can't or I will lose because they support a bunch of cards that they don't have It doesn't matter how generic you intend for it to be, if you're designing an archetype, running it generically to be able to access its effects should be an improvement, not a requirement You could've made the Extra Deck upgraded forms of the originals, such as Weiss commanding her ice knight, or Yang with her red eyes. Ruby and Yang could've been Fusions, each needing specific material so Red Semblance has a reason in archetype to substitute for material, with Yang's being a non-effect monster to give her the benefits from the main deck Yang, leaving Weiss and Blake with having a Synchro and Xyz respectively Again, I don't hate the effects, I hate that half of the effects don't work for *them* and *only* work generically, basically the opposite of how cards are designed nowadays, which is done for good reason. I love generic decks, my favourite deck is Spright, but I dislike it when an archetype is generic *for the sake of being generic*

@@cdgames69 I was given an idea for Extra Deck monsters involving two Huntresses at once being named after the group names: "WhiteRose", "Bumblebee", etc.

Thanks! Yeah, I think I've fixed the audio issues for future episodes.

JNPR + O will come out later. I just didn't want too many cards in a set.

Let's see here... I've only played Kirby among any of these franchises, so my knowledge of the others is limited. - Runicks do Deck outs better than your Sly Cooper suggestion, so that wouldn't stand out competitively. - I don't know anything about Yakuza to even try and you didn't leave a Deck suggestion. - My DOOM Slayer archetype already does a single monster with a myriad of Equip Spells, so your Dead Rising suggestion sounds too similar. - Your Kirby suggestion sounds a bit like Relinquished, but better - so I expect Relinquished support to someday cover this gap. - Enormous Fusion Decks have already been done - Shaddoll and Invoked are just two of them, and your leveling mechanic sounds exactly like the LV monsters. As fun as it is to represent multi-media series into card form, I try to make their play style original, so they don't completely overlap with existing archetypes while keeping the spirit of the series itself. That's actually the most challenging part of Gaming Custom Cards.

​@@gmaster1991 I look forward to seeing your interpretation of a Kirby Deck! i like the idea that kirby would absorb th emonsters, and ddd would just be crushing them to both spite kirby and does damage to the oppenent. maybe deeddd could be like 2600 defense level 6 monster that reads like "while this card is on the field, your oppoent cannot attack(or target?) any other [kirby archetype] monsters. You can target/tribute/destroy/remove(however you wanna word it) one card in your spell and trap zone(field spell included incase their needs to be special wording for that) and if you do, your opponent losses 300-800 life points." and meta knight can be "while this card is on the field your oppenent cannot attack other [kirby archetype] monsters. once per turn if there is another [kirby archtype] monster on the field, besides metaknight, you can lower the attack of an opponents monster by 300-800" my rationale is that metaknight is scary and he can intimidate an opponent and "lock in" to protect a fellow star warrior. and if there's mulptiple metaknights you should be able to use all 3 of their effects. so imagine 3 metaknights(lvl 4), a ddd, and a kirby(level 3?) on the field together via pendulum summoning. fighting a blue eyes. with 600 attack and 1800 attack meta knight could cut it down. but again do whatever you want. i just hope the suggestions help! i really look forward to your interpretation!

@@justjunk3268 Okay, I think we're getting a little ahead of ourselves. I haven't even conceived an idea for Kirby yet, let alone an archetype.

@@gmaster1991 when i say achertype i mean like how you called sonic "mobius genessis" or "mushroom" cards. like here are some suggestions kirby, the star of dreamland metaknight, the warrior of dreamland dedede, the king od dreamland waddledee, a servent of dreamland etc.... or like kirby, the star warrior the star rod(magic card the warp star so in the card text if could be like "you can search a card with "star" or "dreamland" in the text

@@gmaster1991 you could ever make metaknight "the star warrior" a level 5 warrior monster and could incorporate cards like "shura the combat star"

I never played Elden Ring before, so I'm not sure I could make it.

VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon already did something like that. While some liberties are taken to make an archetype work, I try not to rip off an existing archetype's boss monster if I can help it.

Yes, those tactics might work. Ruby and Weiss can make a Garden Rose Synchro pretty easily. And yes, Silver-Eyes is a Dragon that's also a rose, so making it a Rose Dragon just made sense, even though it doesn't really help the Huntress archetype.

Thanks!

Team JNPR and Oscar will likely be treated as additional cards in the Huntress archetype in a future episode.

@@gmaster1991 I wouldn't forget about an additional archetypes of RWBY, like a Beacon archetype with the teachers (Glynda, Ozpin, Bartholomew, etc), and the students (both the already created cards and maybe CRDL and CFVY teams added to the mix. Maybe even have an archetype of each school of Hunters and Huntresses! (Beacon, Atlas, Haven and Shade). And don't forget the enemies! Grimm archetype have LOTS of options, and the White Fang archetype... Yeah, you really got LOTS of options to make, and want to see more if you want to do them!

@@grothnackblodmir4039 That's too much for a single archetype. I can see the Grimm and Salem's cabal being a separate archetype, though.

Would Pyrrha be treated as a zombie type monster while on the field or graveyard?

@@thegreenguy4666 I doubt it would be a zombie type. I see her more that by summoning her, she lets the player bring an equipment spell. Also, another spell card that protect the rest of the table by sacrificing her

I only post my own archetypes on my channel. I've made every single card myself.

I use the Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Maker. ygopro.org/yugioh-card-maker/

@@gmaster1991 Ah. I just tried that, but for some reason trying to use "Export As" just opens a blank page for me, and while clicking on the card itself does let me save it, it's not in the size that I need. And it's also missing a card type I wanted to use that isn't exactly a custom card type, but also isn't currently in the game (Link Pendulum). Thanks, though.

@@BurstFlare The first problem can be rectified by right-clicking the card itself and opening the image as a new tab. I don't have any idea for the Link Pendulum, though.

@@gmaster1991 Just tried that. It does work, but it's in the same size as what I get when I click on the card. But thanks for telling me about that.

@@nesmario123 Sorry, but I have a job that takes a lot of my spare time.

ohhh i'll look at them for fun

@@DarkSymphony777 Well, they are pretty fun.

Millennium-Eyes Restrict and Gaia Prominence, the Fierce Force can work with Ruby and any other Huntress.

There are certain formats like GOAT and Edison that provide more balanced player experiences like you describe.

@@gmaster1991 I do think those are close to what I've been looking for, but I do think those formats have some issues if using the "official" rules and banlists for those formats. I'm looking for a more custom format that fixes some of those issues and also introduces a few things from more "recent" YGO (pre-Pedulum and only the early extra deck monsters from those formats). I don't expect anyone to make such a format more official, it would just be fun to play with a small community or perhaps in a fan-made game using such a format (maybe even with some of the other fixes I mentioned such as ruling simplification and text reduction).

This was only meant to show off a concept, so I wasn't intending to make an entire series of this. (Although, I could've probably justified an Energy Card that could Ritual Summon a non-Effect monster.)

I never played Elsword Online, so I don't know. Also, I'm undergoing training for a new job, so videos will likely be slower than they were before.

@@gmaster1991 Gotcha.

I've been trying, but I could never find the right balance between the intro and my voice.

Yeah, Engage's Anna broke the trend of young women. Li'l Merchant is more than just adorable, but a reusable Level 1 Tuner that veterans could appreciate.

Okay, you have my attention. Do you have any ideas that might fix the rampant '10-minute turn/unbreakable board' issues, aside from just banning every single card responsible for it? That was my biggest reason for featuring the Energy Card concept.

@@gmaster1991 hello. well, that is how we think differentely. you see, designing cards/sets that fuel the current state of the game, "10-minute turn/unbreakable board' issues", as you put it (but there are many more problems, design wise ad other) will not solve the problems, rather just add more of it to the mix. I believe yugioh needs a year 0, reseting the game, banning all cards as you put it. A new design philosofy will never work without said reset as the direction i would take ygo design clashes with everything the game has done for to many years. To solve a problem you need to see the whole picture -easier said tham done. you cannot think of banning cards as a solution to op cards, you need better card and game design. if both your game´s threats and asnwers go hand in hand in how op they are add ing more of them solves nothing.

@@goncaloferreira6429 I hate to admit it, but you might be right. Konami already crafted something similar to a "Year 0" with Rush Duels, so they may have already considered an idea like mine. Ah well... Energy Cards were still just a concept in the end.

@@gmaster1991 ruah duel is close to what i envision in the sense that it breaks from normal ygo. it is a sucess in japan with the demographics it is intended to, somewhere close to the 10th most bought tcg in japan. still, it is a simplifcation of the og game. the energy idea is ok but this type of analysis depends on how serious you take these card design exercises.

@@goncaloferreira6429 Gotcha. If a Concept Episode 2 ever comes around, I should consider the implications first, then the potential benefits, instead of the other way around.

The potential to attack during your opponent's first turn and interrupt their strategy is their raison dêtre. That's what makes it such a good go-second Deck. Even so, each Mobius Genesis monster's Quick Attack is once per turn, and the strongest one's ATK is 1800, which doesn't touch certain archetypes like Kashtira. Indestructible monsters or monster negation can also cut a potential interruption short. Finally, Escapin' From the City is the only card that can actually get a Mobius Genesis monster on the board in an opponent's Turn 1, and it can be shut down by Ash Blossom.

@@gmaster1991 By "opponent's first turn", I meant the first turn your opponent takes, not the first turn of the Duel. If you're going first, you can Summon some Mobius Genesis cards you happen to get in your starting hand, then end your turn and attack your opponent during their Main Phase 1 before they even get a chance to play a single card. Sorry for the late response, reply notifications got turned off somehow.

@@BurstFlare Actually, Escapin' From the City is a Trap that can be activated from the hand to tech out a Mobius Genesis monster from the Deck, so this archetype truly can interrupt an opponent's move on Turn 1.

@@gmaster1991 Okay, let me try to explain where I was coming from. When I posted my original comment, I, for some reason, thought that because the card text specified "During your opponent's Main Phase", it meant that you could activate the effect any time during that phase, even at the start of it. This left me concerned that, if you took the first turn, you could potentially Summon a bunch of Mobius Genesis monsters and have them all attack your opponent before they got a card on the field, which if you managed to get out three Knuckleses and two Sonics, would likely end the game then and there. Or in the case of a Speed Duel, just one Knuckles and two other non-Tails Mobius Genesis monsters would be enough. But as I was trying to type up this reply, I decided to dig deeper into it, and it turns out that's actually not the case. The turn player always has priority, meaning the opponent can't activate anything until the turn player does something that can be responded to or the card being activated has some hyperspecific timing like "at the start/end of *insert phase here*". So they would still be able to Summon a monster to try to stop the incoming onslaught before it actually happens. I understood this ruling to some extent, but clearly I still had some misinterpretation of the game's rules because of my earlier assumption.

@@BurstFlare Yes, the turn player does have priority, so a Mobius Genesis monster can activate its quick attack effect on an opponent's monster only after your opponent has an opportunity to do something.

It referenced how players were initially only able to summon multiple non-Link Extra Deck Monsters by having a Link Monster point to multiple zones.

Huh, I didn't know somebody else already did something similar to this. You do make a good point about certain Energy Cards being absurdly expensive, so they should probably be relegated into more common rarities. That would fix the financial issues. And there's no reason that Energy Cards couldn't have other costs along with room in the Extra Deck. Auxiliary Typhoon could have an additional discard 1 card cost, for example, along with the no S/T clause (so it doesn't completely outclass MST). I appreciate all the feedback! I've begun to think of this concept from newer angles that I haven't before.

VERY interesting But having "Intrigue" already in card names, maybe Stratagem could be better?

@@Ramsey276one Oh. Hadn't really though about the card type name being already in some cards. That could be a minor issue. And sure, Stratagem works well too. I was using Intrigue because I imagined the card-type being used in some kind of "Noir-themed YGO Season". Kinda like Detective Conan/Lupin/Persona 5 but YGO.

@@abyssal113 I see...

I should point out that it shuffles any 'card', not just 'monster', plus it can't be responded to AND doesn't require any resources from your hand or field. Its main purpose would be to take off an omni-negate, provide S/T removal to a Deck that doesn't have any, or just do some weird Generaider and/or Appropriate shenanigans. The card's design would likely go through fine tuning in the event that Energy Cards go past the conceptual stage. This video really just exists to show off the concept itself, not really the cards themselves. So yeah, all in all, there were bound to be a few stinkers in there.

It is cool ngl, would be interesting to see but i just feel like the cards would need to be so broken to keep up. Its gotta be worth picking a great interaction over, if done right could be really cool nice idea and video mate
