    • @frig7014
      @frig7014 Před 5 měsíci +4

      it now has 3 bentens and 3 orange lights (if you really wanna play them), so now as it stands its only hits are not having eva & union carrier, and since most drytron players have pivoted to different win conditions (chaos max & amorphactor) the eva ban is meaningless. Also orange light was hit for tear not drytron.

It has to be a multi-player game with competition like a fighting game or a MOBA or some other type. Which those games can be anywhere from Free to maybe $60-70, assuming you already own the console, which can gives you free access to everything the game has to offer. Where yugioh struggles is that if you dont have access to everything because they are all stuck behind multiple paywalls. If I'm playing Ryu in street fighter but want to play Guile or Dhalsim I can pmay them for no extra charge since i already own the game. But say if you spend X amount if money on let's say a Tearlament deck but then decide later you want to play Rescue ACE, you have to spend more money to get the cards. The only thing that stays constant are potential staple cards that can fit into multiple decks.

    My Crystal Beast deck is pretty budget friendly, the only expensive cards on it are Zeus, Talents and whenever I manage to find one SP (wich currently I do just fine without, Unicorn is just about as good 99% of the time. The only real reason I want to replace it is that SP doesn't mess up the Chidori locks).

    I think I paid under 130 for the complete vaylantz core with ALL the collectors rares
    total price of the deck is kinda impossible to calculate though considering you can just put whatever you want in the extra deck
    I recommend the otk strategy. The stun build is literally just introducing a ton of chokepoints for an endboard that dies to more things than if you just shoved every stun staple into a big pile. The blind second build on the other hand is resilient enough that I once managed to otk tear 0 despite all my fields getting milled through gas and brute force alone.

    Springans never saw its time in the competitive lime light because it's a deck compromised entirely of 2 card combos that needs to open well to play through a single well placed handtrap and lacked a unique and unfair endboard payoff aside from cyberstein, which was something shs did better anyways. The deck also lacked room for more than like 9 non engine spots as well

    MBT: "Why did this tier 0 deck that was probably the best deck for several consecutive format just become completely unplayable when one power card got banned?"
    Because the only reason anyone played those decks is they were tier 0 meta threats, no one actually liked playing with or against them so as soon as they stopped being the undisputed best pick people either migrated to decks they actually like or decks that do the same thing but are the new undisputed best at doing it

    • @nsreturn1365

      the thing is, spright was or still is the closest thing we will ever get to modern BA, and as far as toolbox enjoyers goes, we have exactly 3 decks to play rn, Spright(s variants), Rank 3 axis goblins, and exosister( rank 4 toolbox). In my locals its still popular cause the people who play them like me really like them, elf ban hurst, and roninban is super bad but we just splash another rank2 thing in. Its just the classic meta hoe shit. trust me pre snake eyes diverse formats there where around 40 decks viable most people don't know about cause its buried in discord channels. then tier 0 hits and welp , no wonder people just don't care to experiment.

    Its really funny, i left a swordsoul comment on the thread that wasn't used, but i think i highlight how crazy bonfire's price is, i bout Swordsoul about 2 months ago for $128, with drolls right before the reprint was announced... With Ty-phon. It wouldn't be doable now, because i caught Ty-phon at $18 where its currently over $30 (mo ye is also up $2.50-3.00 and emergence is up $2.00-2.50). But literally just replace ty-phon with a filler synchro of your choice and its pretty at about $115, with all the staple handtraps and board breakers.

    Surprisingly, if you still insisted on playing Fire Kings this format, you could play Fire King Dogmatika. Every main deck card in there is pretty cheap with the exception of Imperms and a single copy of Maximus being anything over a dollar (barring the structure decks themselves). In the extra the most expensive cards are Garura, Linkuriboh, and Masq, and you can build a pretty competent side board with the most expensive cards for my build being Super Polys. if we were to work around TCGplayer's tax factor, the deck is $110.

    Until you reach the best of staples and extra deck. Tactics thrust $90, Baronne $50, Accel Stardust $30 are the three main expensive ones I saw
    But many of the other supports that work with it are cheap, such as Synchro Overtake into Deep Sea Diva combo or XYZ sharks for N.As.H. Knight, Number 4, 101, and 103 combos. Could also use Kaijus where you use waterfront field spell for the points with Gameciel on your side of the field for multi use omni-negate + banish.

    Respect to the man Matpat. So if you wanted to build Fire Kings, you can still build Fire Kings and run a small amount of Sinful Spoils techs and get same result of running the Sinful Spoils package...well not really, it ain't as consistent but if I was able to play Yugioh, and I wasn't paying for all that expensive ass card board, I would just run more of the Fire King Beast Warriors, 1 Coach King Wolfbark, 1 to 2 of Original Snake-Eyes, 1 to 2 Populus, One for One, and Infernal Flame Banshee to get to the Populus. I just said this on Distant Coder's video about the price of card board being too damn high, but I will say it again. It is crazy, how many people will pay so much money, to consistently summon a level 1 Fire Monster, when cards like One for One exist. I wish it were at 3.
