- I took on the challenge of taking dark magician to YCS Vancouver. Here is how it went. Vancouver is a beautiful city with amazing people and I had a blast!
Thank You for everyone who've supported me throughout this journey! Means so much.
Those who i've met there, it was a pleasure and I hope to see you soon!
Can’t thank everyone enough for the support! And for those who I’ve met in Vancouver, fans of the channel and other players, it was an honour!
Can’t wait to continue making more content for you.
I love your deck matchie you is the goat
Im a casual player but can you try soul servant send pharaonic advent to grave. Send two traps/spells to grave that being magic defense to revive pharaonic advent. either have dugares revive him, magic defense or play chaos phantasm to copy him and use itself as fodder. Then take tyrant throes and use navi to revive 2 dark magicians to lock opponent.. it aint competitive but maybe you can create or add cards that it might.. its fun to lock them and have eternal soul to revive dark magicians and link ladder to tenyi.. add in apophis to negate and have extra normal monster.. add in magical hats to create 2 normal summons for tyrant throes while sending traps like navi, magic defense etc to grave and revive dark magician and lock opponent.. its stylish and fun for content but it aint competitive 😂 add one aremasir adventure cont spell is fun too. Or shadow light magician soul to summon effect veiler to sychro summon formula and get a draw.. with magicians rod negated you can still synchro summon into junk speeder.. deck dont have much space but its nice to pull out 5 synchrons tuner and create something thinking your DM deck is done.
Bro we were all cheering for you represent the Dark magician!
Tough luck man, but it is all about the principle, you went out there and played the deck that you love and that is why we admire you keep pushing for it we are all here to support you.
Thank you! Appreciate the king words! We’ll keep working at it :)
Yooo Matchie, congrats!! You made us proud!! So glad to have you out there representing Dark Magician. I'm sure people were so surprised to see the deck performing so well.
Thank you thank you! Means so much to me! Can’t wait to keep working on the list and top some major events soon!
Thanks for sharing with us this adventure and project, Matchie! You are a great deckbuilder and I am sure that with more experience you can only aim higher with Dark Magician. Well done!
Thank You for the kind words! Just trying my best with this deck haha!
Rogue...Tier...GOD. 🙅♂
hell yea! i just put this together so excited to play and see what else you do with the deck papi
congrats dude!! really enjoyed this series and hoping to see you continue to innovate on the Dark Magician strategy in the future-i've been jamming some games with a build based off of your ideas and it's definitely my favorite iteration of the deck.
So happy to hear that! Thank you! If you have any changes that worked for you, shoot me a msg :)
Way to go dude!! Proud of ya
Dude, you did so well. It ain't over yet, we got more chances to take this deck further.
Dude congrats still a good record! Will stay and support your next journey with DM always you have good takes and explanations on the deck and strats!
Thank you my friend! Means the world reading that
As far as I'm concerned, you're one of the best DM players out there. Oh! I also run the RizerArcain channel. You've been a continued inspiration, my guy! Looks like I may go to the drawing board, again!
Makes my day reading that! Thank you so much my friend! Means the world to me
Was cheering for you heavy , good stuff
It was nice meeting you! I still can't believe you make these videos on just a phone. Insane.
Congrats on the win a mat and beautiful list. Maybe we will see eachother at another event.
Appreciate it man! It was an absolute pleasure meeting you! Hope we cross paths in the future !
I play DM for a long time,now i dont have a lot of time so i play a bit of master duel in my work, your video appear to my like a miracle, because your deck is very cool, the shadoll combo its very good, thanks for playing DM because it make me happy to see more people like me still playing this cool deck ❤
Well played mate :)
Good job man!
Great work Matchie! Glad to hear you had a great time and had a good day two at the side events.
What’s next? Another YCS?
Really enjoyed the series of videos so far and am looking forward to more! Cheers
Thank you my friend… not sure what’s next, taking it day by day :) but I’m very excited for the future
Props to anyone who unironically plays Dark Magician at a competitive level and consistently summons double Dragoon turn one - my favorite Boss monster of all time. I play Branded at locals and I only put one Dragoon in the extra. (The extra deck space is tight in Branded.) So this guy is kinda my hero.
Congrats on winning those mats! And keep them videos coming! Your dedication to this deck it's what could make more people play it and maybe Konami trowing us some much needed modern support !!! PS: I'm still trying to get the 3 magician's souls to play this myself 😢
Can’t thank you enough for the kind words! Means a lot!
congrats on the result man so sick taking dm to a ycs in 2023
I told you about the adding the 3 links to counter the lab matchups 😂!! Great job dude, you killed it
Hahaha the ED is too tight! But I’ll try ‘em
3:32 Mad respect for pointing that out early in the video.
No disrepect to you or your opponents, but even tho it should be obvious sometimes players will overlook how early losses will skew the rest of your matchups.
Anyways, good to hear you had a blast over there (tho ik this was now a few months back😆)
My goat as always
Nice work on side event!! X3 is still big achievement especially with dark magician!! Im sure you will find a way to make it perfect!!
Yup! Work is far fork over, need to keep working hard and trying to make the most out of this deck haha
Godspeed match man
Awesome video, I would say make videos of you updating your deck for the format and dominating the next regionals to YCS! Dark Magician needs a redemption
Will do for sure! Thanks for the support!
Proud of yoU!!!
congrats and hope you enjoyed your stay in Vancouver. Ive been also building my own Branded DM inspired by you.
So happy to hear that! Thank you
Happy that u keep the content up! Hopefuly the next profile is after the dropped banlist xD
Thank You! Agreed, hope we get a banlist soon
@@MatchieYGO Ye but good that u were able to play the branded at full power for this YCS
from one dm player to another, respect brother, you did a damn good job regardless of people saying dm isnt competitive but we both know theyre wrong and you certainly proved it and gave it your all, and plus dude its your first regional and people tend to play very differently and be more aggressive than most, but hell at least you had fun buddybthats all that matters, also what place did you end up being in?
I appreciate it! Thank you for the kind words! I’m actually not sure where I finished :( I didn’t check
I would’ve loved to see the faces of the kash players you obliterated. GGs sir nice attempt for real! And better luck next time, let’s hope they hit lab 😂
Look at Matchie man... so inspirational...
Best of luck 😁
Thanks for all the great videos and analysis on dark magician, long live DM! any ideas on what you switch out nibiru with?
I really like triple tactics thrust, so maybe that. Not sure yet!
Thank you though!
Awesome, I been opening 25th anniversary tin just to get the dark magician, I miss my 2002 yugioh starter set ;(.
Congratulations to you for your first YCS !! 🎉
Thank you for all the good tips and overall strategy you provide. Keep up with some locals results and updating your DM list as the meta evolves
🫡
Thank You for the king words! I love this deck, and I can’t wait to keep refining it :)
The true goat of yugioh
Congratulations to you to win 2 kash in a row with dm😎🔥u’re just unlucky to face lab and not call judge about the VS player u’re the goat keep the content up 👑
Appreciate the kind words! Thank hiu
Congratulations to your effort, i still believe you can get Top Cut with Dark Magician. U gonna play YCS Cancun and/or YCS Dortmund btw?
Thank you thank you! No I won’t be going to those, I am however planning on going to YCS Indianapolis. But we’ll see, nothing is set in stone
@@MatchieYGO Hype! I'm continuing cheering 4 u, people that play his favorite deck with a constructive and competitive mind like u deserves get higher
I know its niche, but without Circle and Soul's removal, i've been running Bond between teacher and student and Dark burning magic. It helps me out with the Lab match up since its a full board wipe for them if I open up Rod and Souls. It's been nice having a searchable board wipe. in a lot of my YGO OMEGA duels and even IRL duels, it does come up where I would search Bond, or if I opened Bond, I'd search Dark Burning if I needed to board wipe that turn and a lot of people don't see it coming so they usually wont Ash Bond.
Ye
Saucy saucy! I’ve tested a bit of bonds, I just don’t like the added bricks especially in a deck that needs to maximize the value in the first 5 cards it sees…
But I’ll look into it again, because with minimal omni negates in the format rn , it could be saucy
@@MatchieYGO im not gunna sit here and say that its the best, because I have opened up with bond, burnig, DM, DMG, and forbidden droplets (which i play to stop Synchrons, and get Rod's eff if people try to imperm Rod) and I've lost that duel. I figured since Im already running Dm, an inherently bricky deck, why not add just 2 more cards into thr deck which could be a huge blow out, and win me games. lol
Remember when Jeff Jones got 34th at YCS Minneapolis 2016 with Dark Magician !?
GOAT 🐐
This reminds me when I played YCS Secaucus back in Goki/Striker format with Mekknight/Kaiju to counter the meta. Then I played 3 True Draco rounds 1, 2 and 4. My worst match up. Felt bad.
It’s brutal. Round 1 game 1, set 5, I immediately knew I’m screwed into this matchup haha
You tried your best and had a great time, that's all that matters! what colourless sleeves do you use to double sleeve on top of your normal white oneels for your dm deck? As a dm player myself, keep it up!
I use dragon shield white for the sleeves and Dragon shield clear mat Japanese over sleeves over them. Hope this helps :)
" I know you're sick of seeing me show this part of the deck " Excuse me?? take that back right now. x
Congratulations my dude 🧙♂️
So if Nibiru didn't really come up, would Droll & Lock Bird be a better choice? So I'm guessing Super Poly is very format dependent? Ohh Yeah! Now that the Ban List dropped, are there any changes you would make? Or would you keep this deck the same? 😯
Let’s bless DM get new support soon.
Congrats mate! I love dark magician and I'll try your decklist...I was wondering why there are 2 winda in the extra deck?
If one winda gets outed, you can make another one. Comes up so often
I would love a rest hand video, more theory if possible
glad to see that DM made some type of mark, even if it was x-3.. love to hear the side event domination..
for more going second cards, I wasn't surprised DRNM and super poly didn't make the side deck per your pre ycs video.
what about utilizing droplet.. or is that too slow or expensive of a resource utilization card to side in?
Droplet burns a lot of resources, as much as i LOVE that card, I don’t think it has a spot right now, but it could see play in the future
The trap card “metaverse” allows you to search a field spell of its removed from play
Hey great video as always! Where do you think this deck places in the meta? Is it better than regular branded or branded chimera? Would you say it’s in the top 10 best decks rn or maybe top 20?
It’s not very high in the meta, I won’t rank it with a number but it’s a D tier deck if I’m 100% honest. It’s success comes from catching people off guard and being the better player
Hey, been using this deck a while now, I got a question. Do you know if there are any other level 4 or 7 light monsters to summon with duality? Having just a rod or DM out with a duality on hand is pure pain. Been thinking of herald of arc light maybe?
I'm in MD, against labrynth, I can win more often than not if I can get the black luster soldier - soldier of chaos (link 3, need lvl 7 to link summon this). Cannot be targeted nor destroyed so make sure you summon this while opponent has a couple of monsters on field (you just need one, but labrynth can recall monsters to hand), give it 1500 ATK for destroying a monster, at this point, labrynth cannot do anything about a 4500 ATK non-targetable non-destructible monster.
Not easy to do because if you do this going first, he'll be just 3000 and can be attacked into; if you go second, it's hard to get it out on the board.
In master duel, what would you play instead of 3x branded fusion? Its limited to 1 in MD
The fact that you don't make excuses like everyone else and you don't live in the fantasy world of fake dark magician cards that don't exist..
Your #1 👍 good work ❤
I appreciate it, thank you!
@@MatchieYGO I don't trust anyone with the dark magician deck...
But you 👍. every one knows labyrinth is dm weakness.... who else can beat labyrinth with dark magician? Keep up the good work
Would you consider play pot of prosperity in the main the instead of one of the blowout cards (maybe nibiru)?
The deck draws 2-4 times per turn, I don’t think you can afford to cut the resource generation for prosp… that being said, prosp is a crazy card
Im sorry but how you summon winda and thr othrr shadoll card if you dont have shadoll monsters?
Awesome deck!!! I was wondering if it’s ok to invest to this deck because i wanna try really bad this deck but the banlist is coming sou any opinion is accepted!! And awesome video❤
Thanks for the complements! With all the reprints, the deck isn’t that expensive right now which is nice.
As far as banlist goes, maybe the branded cards take a hit, but the dark magician cards are safe right now
Matchie, what would you say were the 3 most important cards of the main deck? Thanks
Magician Souls, Branded Fusion, Blazing Cartesia
Is playing 1x aluber + 1x branded lost + 1 branded opening any good? It sounds good to me, but im not exactly an experienced player 👀
What would you consider in place of Solemn Judgments in the side? 3 Evenly Matched?
Not sure yet, thinking about a few spicy things im excited to try. When I come to a decision, you guys will know :)
I LOVE DARK MAGICIAN
Hahaha love you buddy
I was thinking to myself a few weeks ago , that I won’t live to see Dark Magician become a starlight rarity or QCR and here we are 2023 and it’s a tin promo. What a time to be alive
You thought this to yourself weeks ago, yet it was announced months ago that it would be a QCR 🤔
@@tommybarnes1997 yeah I was not keeping up with the announcements 😂 I was shocked when I saw people breaking open those promos open
Hey, what Sleeves do u use?
How do you activate Shadoll Schism? I can't seem to figure it out from your list
There is a combo video on my channel :) I go over it there!
Hope it helps
@@MatchieYGO Ohhh Sweet! I'll check it right now!
Hey, can you explain how to use duality with branded dm?
Check out the how to play dark magician video on my channel, I go over everything there is to know about the list :)
Maciej my goat
Kevin you absolute legend
sorry for asking, but how do you summon winda in here?
There is a combo video on my channel that goes over it :)
I kinda hate that i can test this deck online really. Master duel has a different banlist (and still no Dragoon). It looks really intresting and i would love to play it.
But can someone explain Duality to me a bit more? I dont understand how it works or for what its good for / what the targets u summon are?
It’s a very fun deck to play :)
For duality, there is a combo video on my channel that goes over how it interacts with the deck :) hope it helps
Ty. I watched it. And it makes a lot more sense now. Sadly i cant use Dragoon on Master Duel but damn the synergy of shaddoll, branded and duality with dark magician is insane. But even without dragoon: Duality is such a nice card: Instant Dark Magician dragon knight just with timaeus + duality or the mill effect of the lvl 7 spellcaster light fusion monster > Mill Dark Magician Dragon knight, revive him with soul. How did i never noticed duality before its so nice to have + recycling material and extra draw power.
Can u maybe upload a video how u would build a DM Deck in Master duel?
This video alone was enough to sub u, ty mate!@@MatchieYGO
DM best deck
I like your content a lot and don’t want to be mean or anything but personally I don’t count anything after you lose the 3rd game. Even if you have 2 losses and 1 tie you might not make top cut, so if you lose a 3rd game you are mathematically eliminated from the tournament and everyone knows it.
It’s why everyone drops after 3 losses, and there is an understanding that everyone who is left is playing for fun. Having personally played in a few regionals and a YCS, the quality of opponents were significantly lower and no one was trying anymore at 3 losses.
That’s why I think it’s disingenuous to mention any wins after you are mathematically eliminated, as there is a big difference if you won 4 games in a row fighting for your tournament life at the bubble of 2 losses, versus winning 4 games in a row against for fun opponents (most good players just leave after 2 losses) who probably aren’t trying very hard either.
Honestly the YCS was the deck performance testing, counting may seem a bit odd since you will get eliminate eventually.
But even so, the deck should already bring its light to other player. Consider amount of players, there will be more people recognizing it.
You’re absolutely right, x-3 to start the day, screwed the matchups going forward, but I promised myself I’d play it out, and report on the results regardless of the outcomes :)
But you’re 100% right with what you said
How does Shaddoll Schism work in this deck?
Granguignol sends Apkallone to the GY, Apkallone adds Schism to hand
What about the eye of timaeus it’s the best spell for dark magician I recommend you to use set in main deck
It’s a cool anime card at best. It’s not great in modern yugioh… it’s not searchable, and requires a decent amount of set up. Not ti mention you go neg in card advantage.
For example, rather than setting up DM and hard opening EOT to make a fusion, you can just activate Branded fusion or red-eyes fusion and achieve the same result.
Hope this helps
I expected as much dark magician is too Rouge definitely should have called Judge on the soul player
Agreed, it was a huge hill to climb, but I had a good time, and learned a lot. Take the W’s as they come
The problem with DM deck is put the girl and the mage on graveyard fast
Oof... 0-3... also how are you 0-3 and still being matched up against Kashmoneytira?
wow nothing got hit from ur list nice! how about a little combo/test hand video? I want to buy this deck, but tbh i dont have that big of an idea how this deck functions beside the videos u already did. pretty much noob to the branded stuff tbh
Yup! Deck is just a little bit better now! I’m excited. Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll definitely get on it :)
@@MatchieYGO especially plays with the fusion monsters and the 1 synchro :D
i have no idea what that synchro card is
Matchie you need a Twitter or Instagram brother so I can bother you in dms! Also need your words of wisdom against unchained and all this new fucking aids x
Hahaha I’m thinking about it. The channel isn’t big enough to warrant making a Twitter or insta.
Maybe in the future :)
@@MatchieYGObig enough for me :(
JamTheLad needs advice in new cringe format
@@JamTheLad hahaha love you buddy!
You can find me on discord, you can reach out to me there
@@MatchieYGO1000% Drop them digits x
Congrats on coming out, KING!
I never knew you were a they/them 🥰
He/Him* :) Happily engaged to a beautiful She/her
Dude im trolling lol because you kept saying we.
And yes im nore than aware you spoke as in you and your audience
I want dragoon im masterduel
locals vlog?
Soon! Trying to find the time
Never play 3 nibiru, you only played 1 or at most 2 of it.
I feel like this should be retitled to something else. Less than half the deck is DM, so this isn't just DM
I love following this storyline and hope it doesn't end here.
Definitely won’t end here :) more to come
More matchie, more content. You could be huge if you uploaded more frequently 🫠
Appreciate the love! I really wish I could, life gets busy though. When things slow down, expect more frequent videos ❤️
