I have to say, this archetype has some Top Tier artwork.
Sylvans: "He does exactly what i do"
Adaman: "But better"
Not really. Adamancipators don't actually utilize the excavate mechanic for them it's merely a restriction for their bonkers tuners, if they could remove the excavation from them and change nothing else they would only be better for it and their playstyle would be the same. For Sylvans on the other hand, excavation is integral to how the deck works, you could not simply "remove it".
@@spyro2002if you removed excavation then they literally couldn’t work because that’s not a restriction it’s their main mechanic for why they’re so good. Both of their excavations are integral and can’t be removed.
Hermitree’s design is really interesting to me: I don’t know what it’s called, but that rope and tassels around the trunk of Hermitree is from Shintoism and denotes a place or object that is sacred or blessed. However, in media, these ropes also act as a sort of repellent for evil spirits and things like rocks and trees that are believed to house evil spirits will have one tied around them to keep the spirit at bay.
So, either Hermitree has one because its a sacred object, OR it has one because its possessed by an evil spirit.
I love using Princessprite in Vampires. There's a combo with Retainer, Familiar and Desire to summon this which keeps Retainer and Familiar from banishing themselves since they become XYZ materials. Plus, if you excavate a Zombie, it gets sent to grave. Then there's Zombie World turning Princessprite into material for Sucker.
We need sylvan support it’s such a fun deck to look at and excavation needs more love in general
You can also play chaos ruler synchro since its mill effect triggers sylvans
Oh no, I TOTALLY OVERLOOKED THAT AND IT'S SO GOOD YOU'RE RIGHT thank you for sharing!
Risky but potentially useful tech card: Top Share. It's a normal spell that requires both players to pick a card from their decks, reveal it, then place them on top of the deck.
Sylvan is one of my favorite archetypes it's card designs are so 🤌🤌🤌 chefs kiss
I'm not saying I hate sylvans but the fact that they won over nephthys, lunalights, and weather painters has shown once again that its the deck that you least expect that will most likely to win in fan polls
Lunalight a are my babies 😊
Lunalights and sylvans are my favorite decks
Lunalights and sylvans are my favorite decks
This deck is one that I hold to my heart because its my first actual “deck” ive ever made.
Such good times
Heck yeah, I'm so glad to hear! I hope I was able to do it justice for ya!
Yes finally, my favourite archetype is getting covered
Thank you for the varied background music!!
No problem, thank you for the feedback! I'm hoping to get better at it as time goes on.
A good card for sylvans is chaos ruler because you can practically excavated for 5 and use the mulch effects of the sylvans and adding any light or dark extender to your hand
Oooooo that's a good one!
I cannot wait for Konami to make all the ignis deck's real especially Windy's
The rose archetype meshes well
Xyz summon alsei, declare "better luck next time", swing for game
Sylvan! My babies!
Remember the good old days of using spore to synchro Shooting Quasar Dragon
Ok Nova. 3 things. 1.) Great video. I haven’t made a Sylvan deck in a while so this will be a go to video when I remake it. 2.) When does quasar commander become available? And 3.) DO A D/D/D EXPLAIN VIDEO. D/D/D and Dark Magician are the 2 archetypes that I have been waiting for you to do since I first discovered your channel. I would love to hear your takes on the decks. Your channel always gives me new deck ideas to try. So keep up the good work.
Both those archetypes will get their day in the sun eventually! I know DM will definitely be a milestone video, but DDD will be at my future discretion.
As for the Quasar Commander, there's not really a schedule for it. As long as the person with that role holds it, they can make a request every month, but if it ever becomes available, I'll be reaching out to the Discord to let everyone know!
Would it be possible to mix this archetype with Shaddolls? Both sets of cards want to be sent to the graveyard and Sylvans have a decent variety of attributes. What could go wrong?
It's got some synergy! It sucks that you won't get the Mulch effects off of sending material right to the grave with Shaddoll Fusion, but plants in grave means easy revival targets for Miracle Fertilizer!
This archetype is like a twin of Naturia/s... they're good in excavating required resource for your strategy needs... in my opinion, it can be combo with Sunavalon/Sunvine, Rose Dragon, and other Plant related decks...
tbh plant decks are just very very powerful in general
@@ZR_-mj6yu one of the greatest monster type with a good staple effects involve GY and Banish...
Sylvan still has a lot of potential, there's a lot of tech cards that can be used in the deck and a lot of different styles of builds, i have been testing the deck a lot and the build that looks most promising is Orea Fertilizer (basically focused on using Miracle Fertilizer and Archfiend's oath, alongside Orea which can return those cards to activte again)
some tech cards that can be used include :
-Therion engine
-Predaplants engine (which includes adding instant fusion with darlington cobra and then using Ambulomelides + chlamydosundew + predaprunning to summon Dragostapella)
-Mardel (can add any plant monster)
-Evil thorn
-Living Fossil (can revive evil thorn or lonefire and still resolve their effects if they tribute themselves)
-Top Share (can place any card on the top of your deck)
-White Rose Cloister (personally i think this card is a lot better than mount sylvania, mount sylvania is a -2 to place 1 card on the top of your deck, it's not a good play at all)
-Reasoning (if excavated, good, if summoned, good too)
-Parallel exceed + Rikka strenna
-Rose princess (adds White Rose Cloister but it's still a plant, better than running terraforming)
-Spore
-Fengli the Soldrapom
-Rikka princess
-Snowdrop the rikka fairy
Of course i don't recommend running all of them because then your consistency will just go to hell, you have to make some choices yourself
You, my kind sir, are so fun to listen to. Gosh I wish I could become a patreon member...
Every pledge counts, but please know that, regardless, I still appreciate that you find my videos entertaining and you give them a watch! I don't get to do any of this if I don't have an audience, so thank you for being a part of it!
@@GoldenNovaYugioh 🔥
Sylvans are actually insane if you run spore with the predaplant engine
Mulch mulch mulch mulch that's all I can hear now.
what about Rose Lover? with carrotweight in the grave, discard rose lover to special summon, banish rose lover to special hermitree or guardioak AND they're unaffected by traps
YESSSS
Early, and great vid!!
Thank you so much!
I wonder when Performalpal and Performage cards will be on one of these videos?
Someday! There are a lot of them, so I'd need to have a lot of time to put them together, but I shall someday!
KONAMI NEEDS TO BUFF SYLVANS
Let's go in the garden
You'll find something waiting
Right there where you left it lying upside down
When you finally find it, you'll see how it's faded
The underside is lighter when you turn it around
Everything stays right where you left it
Everything stays
But it still changes
Ever so slightly, daily and nightly
In little ways, when everything stays
Great video I've always liked Sylvan I just wish Konami made them more relevant, also are you planning on making a nekroz video?
No plans in the immediate future, but I want to one day!
I used to mess around with Sylvans in Duel Links all the time. Either way, I love this archetype! Since Special Summoning and working off the GY has become more crucial in this game, I feel Sylvans have some synergy with Plant Synchro. Along with Carrotweight, Plants like Rose Lover and Rose Girl can work off of the rigjt Plants hitting the GY.
Totally agree, I would argue it's one of Sylvan's biggest strengths! Any good generic plant support gets easily folded in, it's only a matter of time before their return!
I just remember the fun nonsense of Hardleg Joe's Rank up the Seventh One Sylvans, which is probably more plausible now with Barian Shark. Sylvans have so many fun gimmicks they can do!
Ah, memories.
Sylvans I've sucked with these effects because I've never was good with my luck especially in duel links heck my lightsworns always mill my dragons judgement and punishment but question Nova how you feel about Card art which is your favorite and wish was animated I love Gizmeks
Favorite card art has to be Summon Gate. So much personality goin' on there xD
Do you have any plans for an Abyss Actor explained video? They are one of my favorite archetypes out of the pendulum era with great design and play style. Plus I'm an actor too and it gives me great validation.
I don't have any immediate plans to cover them, but I DO want to cover them.
@@GoldenNovaYugioh Tight. I look forward to other Explained videos in the mean time.
I don't want to sound repetitive(if anyone has asked b4) but I gotta ask since I didn't read any comments like this... Where is the utopia explained video? sorry to bother but I was kinda looking out for that...
Understandable! I was hoping to have an update video about it, but other videos ended up taking too much time xD
Short version is, Next week (8/29-9-4) is a break week for me, so no videos. But I'll be taking that time to prep for Utopia Explained. Part one SHOULD be out the week after that, and Part two just after that.
@@GoldenNovaYugioh Wow... thank you for taking the time to reply that ^^ hope you can have a nice rest!
I wonder if you could also do Naturia deck
Eventually!
Rose lover would be great for sylvan
Are you ganna cut the gagaga dododo achacha nonono utopia to parts like heroes or is it just one huge take
Yeah, it's gonna be two videos, one for Onomats and one for Utopia proper!
Give is a sylvan link 1-2 that tributes one plant monster too mulch eqal too level that whoud be pog
Naturia Sylvan
Daniel The cooler Daniel
If anyone makes this edit, please @ me on twitter, I need to share it xD
There was this guy who made an otk without hermitree... im still trying to find it
I mean, if you can spam enough trees, an otk doesn't sound too hard.
Rose lover... Summoning and reviving lonefire
@@ulkimion i finally found him and i remember i added the rose csrd as well from his decklist, his name is kogarasho unfortunately he stopped making videos 3 years ago... so sad
10:38 was so important, it had to be said twice lol
I hope konami will release more xyz sylvan in duel link
Not only does Halo have an Arbiter, but also Yu-Gi-Oh.
*Orea pulls out a heckin' Energy Sword*
Excavate and reveal are never the same thing.
I hope this deck gets revamped or something, it's pretty fun to play.
But using orea sacrificing heemitree makes my brain crash xD
Just say excavate.
I've been dying to find a way to replicate this (czcams.com/video/WsaSLCF4yoo/video.html) in a Yu-Gi-Oh! fic, and Sylvans are perfect, especially since I was looking for Xyz archetypes for OCs! Mount Sylvania is the only archetypal card that'll interfere with the deck stacking, and that's easy enough to account for when scripting duels.
This video really helped (what do you and Delilah [did I get her name right?] think of Cardfight!! Vanguard, especially the scene I'm linking to? Curious how that game comes across).
I WANA SEE DUKE TERMINAL PART 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
13:26 Protector*
Fingers crossed for some direct support in the near future!
PLEASE!
Can you do six samurai next
Sure it's gonna be a long ass one😀
It sure will, which is why I'm gonna need to add a lot more time to my schedule to make it happen xD It won't be any time soon, but I WILL cover them! Eventually.
I am starting college this week…. I need a break…
Oh goodness. I hope college goes well!
@@GoldenNovaYugioh it going weell
please do next black luster solider
One day, I shall do so!
@@GoldenNovaYugioh
thx dude please do also red eyes and blue eyes if you can
I am disappointed the first excavate archetype is not the fossil archetype.
It wood be great if they could grow to become a meta deck :)
the low level sylvens so adorable !!! do you think they related to naturia somehow?
Not in any official written Lore.
Yeah, not officially, but their aesthetics certainly mesh very well!
You owe me 12 bucks for your use of terrible puns
Honestly in my experience hermitree hasn't been all that good and gurdioak has been amazing
Nice job! But... where "utopia explained" ?!
sooooooooon
I REAAALLLY wish sometimes that he would calm down with the puns.....this arch-type has so much fun trivia, even in their GREAT artwork... it is almost a crime that he passed over it. So much fore-shadowing was placed in a lot of the cards for later cards in the arch-type.
I AM NOT SAYING STOP THE PUNS BUT....COME ON.......one of my favorite arch-types was just done dirty.
I overall wish People would apprecaiate that more.
I am a huge sucker for Lore Related things. For Big Universes like Duel Terminal or even in Archetypal Stuff like Geargia for example.
The Main Reason why i am more of a collector than a Player.
