Swordsoul Master Duel Guide: Playing and Beating It

- čas přidán 3. 08. 2024
- This crash course guide is intended for people unfamiliar with Swordsoul or are seeing it for their first time in Master Duel. Keep in mind, this is only a basic guide. The skill ceiling on this deck insane, and the ways you can combo the Tenyi cards with your Swordsoul cards are way more complicated than this video makes them out to be.
To see real advanced Swordsoul gameplay, check out Pak, one of the best players in the game, in this and his other videos. You will see things you never thought possible with Swordsoul: • HOW TO PLAY SWORDSOUL ...

I'm dumb, this one should have Chaofeng over Crimson Blader in the Extra Deck.

Swordsoul Halqifibrax: ygoprodeck.com/swordsoul-halq/
There is one Swordsoul variant I didn't talk about, the Denglong variant. I wasn't familiar with the variant when I made the video, but it didn't seem like that version took off anyways. Here is Pak going over what that version does here: • TIER 1 MASTER DUEL DEN...

This is an EXCELLENT video! To the point, gives you different lines and options, and doesn't assume people know all the monster effects especially since SS just came out in MD. I would welcome any other archetype breakdown in this format and hope to see more!
Is there any in particular you'd like to see?
@@LamesAMA There's a lot of despia dpe atm you could do one on that.
Otherwise I'd happily watch one for any meta deck such as drytron, tribrigade, eldlich etc. For returning players which is a lot of masterduel viewers, there are a lot of combos to learn how to use or break
@@hiimroo3120 I'm absolutely gonna do Despia, but I'm waiting until they get the rest of their new cards like Branded Fusion. I've already started working on that script.
Drytron is definitely on my list of decks to cover. Inshallah Eva gets banned soon and I don't have to make the video.
@@LamesAMA First of all thanks for this video, really helped my understanding of the cards and the deck! You have one more subscriber now :)
Is there any chance you are going to make this sort of video about Cyberdarks? I understand it's nowhere near Swordsoul in terms of meta potential, but I would be insanely interested in that
@@LamesAMA Lately, I've been seeing a lot of Sky Striker and Virtual World. I'm a returning player so I'm not familiar with either. I'd especially like to see VW since I always seem to lose against them.
As a new player who got into yugioh due to Master Duel and bought my very first TCG deck, comprehensive vids like this are a blessing. Sure it's hectic learning the different engines and dismantling them with the hands given are a hassle but that's the charm I find with this game. Thank you and earned a sub from me :)
wow this video was exactly what i needed thank you for your dedication, you explained everything without having the video being too long.
Such a clear video! Really appreciate your detailed explanations on all the nuances and interactions between cards!
I've said this in other comments, but since this video is doing insanely well, I'm going to be making more guides of this type.
I primarily want to cover meta stuff that you're likely to see on ladder. I'll be covering Floowandereeze, Despia, the Adventure package, and BASED as these decks become playable. Until then I need more content, so what decks already in the meta would you like to see videos on in the mean time?
While I'm sure most people know how to play these decks, videos at least covering how to beat the current meta decks like tri zoo, drytron, etc would be really cool!
I think a very interesting deck to cover would be phantom knights. They have so many ashable cards and effects and a lot of the times when you dpe their links they still end up building a decent board.
Also, IDS is an interesting option to cover. I play it right now, but it looks like I'm changing my deck every day and have no real grasp of what I need the most. Some people play el shaddoll fusion, some don't. Some only play 3 shaddolls and rely on dogmatikas to give them access to shaddoll fusion, but to me winda looks like their strongest win condition against the meta and if you can't reliably make her turn one then what's the point? So, I would really appreciate input from a more experienced player.

This was literally the best structured and informative Video Guide I've ever seen about a deck. Great Work and that's definetly worth a subscribtion. I hope to see more videos like this!
Awesome video! This was so helpful and extremely well crafted. Would love to see more videos like this for other archetypes as well as more Swordsoul vids
Finally Thank you. someone that explains the cards and interaction. this is a guide! not like the other videos that just play the deck and dont explain anything. love you man. subscribing.
Because those arent guide ubdumb
Amazing video, haven't seen a deck or archtype breakdown of this high quality anywhere else for anything. Definitely earned a sub and can't wait to see more content like this!
Small note, you should have mentioned the hand trap that kills this deck, token collector. It's a combo piece in dinos for bad hands so some players main deck it, and some sword soul decks play 1 for crossout, or to send it off shooting riser dragon for the mirror match
I just finished my Swordsoul deck 2 days ago and have been loving it. This video is extremely helpful because now I know how to deal with the mirror match plus I’ve learned combos and effects I wasn’t aware of. It’s also shown me how I’ve been misplaying myself into bad situations or into combo enders without meaning to. All in all great in depth video.
The way you explain things in your videos in brilliant 👍🏻 one of the best I’ve seen in understanding decks 👍🏻
Damn man. This is some quality stuff we needed, I hope you keep content like this
This vid really helped me understand all the different cards and lines very well, I'd love to see more videos like this and also would love to see some gameplay videos of this archetype!
Fantastic video my guy! I love playing this deck and I still play it in the tear meta. I love finding out new ways to play it
I'm late to the Swordsoul deck but still have to say this is one of, if not the most detailed and understandable deck and archtype breakdowns I've ever watched. As an old school player who just recently got back into modern yugioh, the slow explanations and combos really helped. Looking forward to watching your guides on other decks like this, cheers!
This video is amazing. I particularly liked the hand trap guide. I wish more guides included something like that.
great video, especially the part about what to handtrap/negate is insanely helpful

I appreciate the detailed explanation of the deck and the classic FGC bangers in the background 🤘🏾
Amazing video. Very good guide. The community needs more of such videos.
A video so good that after 2 minute I've liked it and subscribed. Hope to see more in depth analysis like this. Keep going!
You're the goat for this amazing and comprehensive breakdown, hope you do more breakdowns like Despia for example in the future. You earned a new follower !
Hey Lames, I just found this video as I'm trying out the Loaner in the event and your video was instrumental to understanding it. On top of that, now that I kinda want to build it I also see you went the extra mile of posting the different variant builds as well so it gives players who are new to the deck style an easier place to start. Cheers friend!
I love the counter section at the end. It is so difficult to find watch choke points some decks have that I just often lose due to lack of knowledge. Tyvm and subbed.
As a new player, I THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. I am indebted to you, I subbed so hard. Keep up the good content!
This is the best yugioh guide I've ever seen. Amazing work man
Now THIS is a guide video.
straight to the point
no BS!
subbed!
Well, this is what I call quality content. Very well explained, alot of work has been put into this video. You earned yourself a sub.
i had searched a few swordsoul halqi combo deck, i just easily forget most of their explanation. But ur explanation is different that I actually able to remember it, thanks man
Awesome vid and effort on this vid, this is the first video I've watched from you and it was so well put together I'm shocked to see you don't upload regularly, great job. 10/10
Great video! Looks like you put a lot of time and effort into it! And it REALLY helped me out! Thanks again!
I LOVE this Video my man. Especially seeing what to ash/negate helps out so much. I wish there would be more videos tht show stuff like this, as it's sometimes very difficult to know what exactly to negate
This helped immensely, would love to see more videos likes this.
Very nice explanation, looking forward to more deck breakdowns like this!
Great video! You sir are a gentleman and a scholar. You just got yourself another subscriber.
The background music was nostalgic! Great video.
This very well may be the best video I've seen on this deck so far
A quick note: If you're against the halq version, a good card to Ash is Vessel of the Dragon Cycle. It's a Rota for tenyis+ a foolish burial for any wyrm. With any tenyi + vessel you can quite literally do anything, although ashing halq is more safe.
Ashing Vessel can be huge, but you get crazy punished if they have another Tenyi on hand. Feel dumb that I didn't talk about Vessel more tbh. Crazy cracked out card
This video is insanely high quality with tons of easy to understand information. You should make more of these =o
If you keep doing these this will be the beginign of the blowing up of your channel.
Amazing video! Thank you!
Looking forward to more breakdowns like this.
Wow, great video mate! Thx 4 your passion to make that 🙏🏻
This is extremely helpful! Thank you for the thorough explanation s and providing visuals
Thank you for the shoutout! Love this video
Dude, this video was clean, well edited, crisp audio. Keep making content you will no doubt succeed
This video is VERY good, my lord. I saw this deck in the TCG a lot and wanted to finally play it since MD is really the only way I can.
Awesome video bro.. Definitely one of my favorite decks outside of master duel 🤺.. you should definitely do more videos like this with different decks.
insane video man. good stuff!!! super helpful. would def like to see more how to counter videos. eldlich, drytron, phantom knights, virtual world, true draco. i’m fairly new & run a Madolche in Master Duel that i’m extremely comfortable with but i’m frankly oblivious to where to negate/trap most of the meta decks. currently stuck at gold 1. appreciate it. keep it up!
amazing vid. i always forget how to do my SS plays and screw it up but this vid help me understand alot more. thx youre a living legend lad.
This video is really informative, thanks for the good content!
Certainly shows that the deck is going to get stronger just after a few days once people start getting used to it, I am torn about it still but this video has been a nice eye-opening learning experience.
This should be the standard for videos. Great job!
Subscribed! Holy crap this is the first 'explainer' video for yugioh that's clearly scripted and understandable without weird tangents! Thank you, and please continue!
I'm definitely appreciating all this fighting game music in the background.
Love the Infinite Azure in the background! I love Tekken so it was nice to hear the music while learning to beat swordsouls.
The SRW name is a huge throwback! I remember playing Alpha Gaiden translated waaaay back in the day.
@@LamesAMA Agreed. Not enough people know about those games. I randomly borrowed SR Taisen: OG on GBA from a friend way back in the day and got hooked ever since. Working on Moon Dwellers now.
@@FOOLK1LLAH I've been out of the series for a while, but I played OG2 and the translated ones way back. J, Alpha Gaiden, and I think either L or K on the DS? Still try to keep up with the new series they're adding. Stuff like Cowboy Bebop and the Netflix Ultraman being added is super cool!
Thank for the in depth guide to play around it and how to play it.
Oh man, I'm going back to ygo after 1,5 year break and this video is super helpful. I hope you can cover the most of the format.
This run down is very good .. if there weren't any other content I I would've turned on the bell .. looking forward to how to beat meta decks break down part two
Very well presented and easy to understand video, definetly subscribing and watching this channel going forward. As for cool videos on MDs meta I think virtual world could be an interesting one, especially with PUNK being out now and giving them even more options for builds.
Such an underrated channel well done
nice work
keep going we need more videos like this
I went from being a noob playing with a strictly trains deck to being able to play this to a very good degree. . . Thank you 😊
Really good content. I wish there were more yugitubers with this format. Keep up the good work
Your video breakdown is very helpful good explanations and good layout
My man using the blessed fighting game music for this video, I love it
There's one more thing you can add to make this great video become more awesome, add good and bad matchup against current meta decks analysis. Keep up the Good work
I wish I had the analytics to do this and have it backed up by fact SOOOOOOOO much, otherwise I don't feel confident making those judgments on my own.
This is great, most guys don’t do the how to counter on their deck guides. It would be great if you could do a video on what to blossom/imperm/call of grave using those infographics u made on this video, on specific decks like: sky striker, virtual world, adamcipator and ignister etc.
Very informative video well done. you talk super fast but not to fast to where I can't understand. Right to the point and yet thorough. Please do other meta decks like Drytron and tri-zoo ect. Feel like pumping out videos on those will help a ton of players out, then pump out counters on meme decks and ftks.
Thank you very much for this, I'll use this to refine my list and strategy
Great video and really helped me learn more as a returning player from just after synchros we're introduced. Even though it isn't meta, I would like a video on Ignisters. I really have made a pet deck around their versatility leaning toward Code Talkers.
This is a great video, waiting for your guide on how to beat magician's force burn though
Important to note that Blackout MUST target EXACTLY 2 cards on the opponents field. You cannot target just 1. Also important to note Baronne's omni negate is once while summoned but she can tag out during either standby phase into anything level 9 or lower.
Chixiao can also negate Barrone to reboot its omni-negate for the next turn 🙂
what a great video, can't wait for more
Super good Video. Keep Up the work.
A truly incredible video - keep this up and those subs will sky rocket. +1
If u make gameplay i hope u consider giving your thought process through out the gameplay! not many people do it even tho it help noobs like me learn new decks
Liked and Subbed :D looking foward to new vids!
That's absolutely my intention! Hopefully my pulls are better soon and I can actually make the deck lmao.
@@LamesAMA sending u some of my lucky cause iits been insane while pulling for this deck lol
Oh wow excellent guide, u earned a sub :)
Appreciate your video. This must have taken a couple of days to record and edit. Thank u for your time
Great explanation 👌 as a beginner this is really useful 👍
Another common way to Access Yazi is to Pitch an Ashuna for LongYuan effect from hand and then use the Ashuna in grave while LongYuan and the token are on field to summon an Adhara from deck. You can then use LongYuan(6) + Adhara(1) to make Yazi. Mind you, you are wyrm locked after Ashuna's effect.
The advantage of this line is that it wins vs Infinite Impermanence like effects.
It plays well into ChiXiao, Infinite Impermanence and Effect Veiler while also Forcing out a Blackout if they have no other way to deal with your LongYuan from hand.
Yazi can then pop a card, summon a Tai-A from deck. Your opponent still cannot Infinite Impermanence your Tai-A because you still have the token on a field from LongYuan.
To extend even further use Tai-A effect to banish LongYuan from grave(optionally from this point onward you can use Adhara to Add LongYuan from Banish). Summon Baxia using Tai-A and one of your tokens. Chain link 1 Tai-A mill Mo-Ye, Chain link 2 Baxia target two cards. Then summon Mo Ye from grave using Baxia to 2nd pop the Token or Itsself, reveal the LongYuan you added from banish and summon a token. Then go into any synchro 8 or ChiXiao, chainblock draw with MoYe and add a Blackout or Emergence for follow up.
You now destroyed 1 card while untargettable by imperm like effects, spun 2 back from the deck, recursed LongYuan back from hand. Add any Swordsoul card (or Wyrm by using Emergence while ChiXiao is on field) and got a free draw.
Many more lines like this out there, enjoy your wins bros!
In the gameplay video, youll be seeing the most powerful Yazi line of all; Longyuan into normal summon Deskbot 001.
@@LamesAMA Hahaha, don't forget about Special Vishuda, normal summin Deskbot Chixiao pass.
Also you familiar with the 3 card Dark Chaofeng lock combo? It's not nearly as good as others but a really cool showcase of some of the edge cases.
@@eNRiskmc I think I've only dark locked someone with Chaofeng once in my life. It was so headass, I was still running Sacred Summit (terrible card) that I got with Chixiao, brought back a Yazi, normalled Taia > Banish for Token, increase Tazi level > Get Adhara with Ashuna. It was like game 3 vs PK or something, Desires hit my Protos lmao.
Swordsoul is a deck full of edge cases, imo the rep it has for being simple and easy is really undeserved.
Holy smokes, great work
Definitely do more how to beat videos even a series would be much appreciated and surely very popular!
Excellent Video!!!
Great video!
just wanted to get DPE, but ended up getting quite a bit of sword soul cards, so this helps alot, thanks!
Bruh thats one of the best "how to play a deck" I have ever seen, new players gonna love it also do play DPE since it locks you to Hero monsters so if you not feeling confident with this deck this can screw your plays
Thanks just what I needed to know
Very informative! Subbed!
Instasubbed.
I much prefer this style of learning over just memorizing combo lines. Great job and thank you.
Thank you for this! I want to build a swordsoul deck so this was insanely helpful. Though besides that, I run into them a lot and generally lose myself in thinking what to destroy or ash. I am now playing shaddoll dogmatika invoked deck and winda once again seem to end their turn immediately, if they don't have an appropriate hand trap ofc or chalice.
I'm also running IDS until I get the crafting material to finish my build. There are some hands that out Winda (Vishuda+Adhara) but its generally really tough. It's a fun matchup imo, Chengying is insanely hard to out though. Usually have to make Verte, turn Chengying to dark, and send a Superpoly to make Starving Venom.
@@LamesAMA Yeah, I can see that being an issue, especially because he is water so not even schism will work on him lol.
Really good video!!
Very nice job !
You forgot about the best combo of the deck, teny --> monk --> pass turn, still very fine video Bro! Congrats!
Lotta FGC music, hearing that MVC3 theme at the end was neat.
Great video, really nice to know when to interrupt Swordsoul combos. As for recommendations, maybe Tri-Brigade (specifically beating it)? Since it's a lot of sending things to the graveyard, I have difficulty preventing them from continuing their combos.
Thank you for the guide; especially the "how to beat" section.
Your video format is awesome. Do you think you could make one for the other meta decks?
Love the background Tekken music
Denglong is legal in master duel, definitely worth considering and crazy that it wasnt mentioned
best video on swordsouls
