Blue Angel was done SO dirty! Seriously, the one archetype that actually works better with 4K LP and the writers did everything in their power to make her lose. I honestly believe she could’ve beaten Revolver if they let her duel him since her deck works great against his Rokket control deck.
Ironically enough- literally every duel she was in she had a way to win, but the writers intentionally wrote her to misplay, so she could lose. She literally could’ve FTKED Playmaker in her first duel, and that was enough to show how they were gonna treat her for the rest of the show.
@@tarikkash4282 I hate that guy. Not only does he play white knight. (All are cringe) This standard is never applied to all girls. Blair Tori Anna Lulu/Ruri etc. Only to characters that Elitist like myself laugh and ridicule. I wish more animator do that to female characters out of spite. Cause I loathe white knights like YGO Everything Im amazed anyone takes him seriously. Elitist mock him.
But i think the trickstars fortè, burn damage, is quite poetic Basically just like real life idol, if you matched up against them, its like being a hardcore fan. The trickstars will allure you, make you attracted to them, buying their merch, live concert, sacrifice time for autographs, etc etc All seems like "minor entertainment" in beginning, not knowing its chipping you financially, just like the burn damage.
Especially since, with trickstar bloom, it *makes you draw cards* to enable most of their OTKS. Just like an idol group, it seems to be a net positive to your life... until your bankrupt.
@@monmusumasterI tried studying it, and honestly, it shouldn’t work. He chains Dark room of Nightmare with Dark room of nightmare, which shouldn’t be possible.
@anishshirodkar484 looking at the chains, I believe it was a max c interaction on a double chain summon lycoris that for some reason caused the opponent to draw three times in the same chain making the chains on the dark room of nightmare happen after lycoris and the field spell triggering a few times before it even kicked in.
Combo your cards right and you can create a questionable number of OTK decks with Trickstars Still a solid archetype though as its not completely Unstoppable but strong
Yep this deck is strong. I believe Blue was soo much defeated on the show because that was what she wants to be, not what she really are... Or a thing like that.
One of the things I appreciate about Skye/Aoi is that ,despite the hardships through the series, she was get up and tries again, avoiding becoming bitter and still tries to help people. I remember one theory that people had when Vrains was on, was that the reason they shifted the focus away from the Trickstar and Gouki was because the sheer bumber of representation that these decks had.
I do love Skye/Aoi Zaizen along with the Trickstar and Marincess archetype a lot but saddens me dearly of how they treated and botched her character because I personally love her duality, aliases and how relatable she can be to hundreds if not thousands or even millions of people across the globe. I even found her interesting than Yusaku overall and I always adored decks that tend to center around burn effect damage, even the artwork is aesthetically appealing to me. ☺️💧🫧 #yugioh
I can’t stop seeing the the skull-heart design anymore since you pointed it out, also in the bouquet card, you can see the flowers of the other trick stars around the edges
Those who play Duel Links if you're not prepared when you battle against the Trickstars with Blue Angel at Lvl 30 or 40. you're in for hurt cause she is a nightmare to fight against sometimes. in one duel, she managed to link summon Holly Angel, Divaridis, Bloom and Catbat in one turn
She was fun to cheese though. Almost nothing she could do vs a blue eyes deck, as her strongest monster is still weaker than a vanilla BEWD. Some of her combos can get over one or 2, but not all of them, esp once I synchro azure eyes and keep bringing them back. Was fun lol
After winning a WCS, Konami was like "you know what, I think I won't print the rest of the Trickstar cards... just in case" It's been 4 years, I think the game has powercreep them enough.
Just have a continous spell that reads like this : "can't activate effect in response to trickstar summon and effects and add burn 200 as well for the lols" You know how terrifying it could be.
@@r3zaful well, we still haven't got the standard omni negate counter trap, as well as monster or spell removal inside the archetype, so time will tell
At the very least they should print the other trickstar depicted in fusion, an actually good fusion monster and a good link. Also maybe the level 6 from the anime, just make it a little better.
Aoi was done horribly when it came to duels. Her first duel was pretty great honestly until it came near the end where her mind went berserk simply because Playmaker had to read out his effects and use up the time she had left, so she was then placed into a coma for a little while. Then the ending bit against Spectre where she was lifted into the air via violent winds and slammed into the ground was pretty brutal when its compared to previous duels. I skipped her little duel with the AI which was...nice since it was a face-off against another burn deck. Duel against Baira was okay, more or less a closure for her since she got to beat the woman who made the code that put her in a coma and helped other people out in the end. Then her duel against Soulburner I don't like as much since it was just to hype up Soulburner and they even gave him a card to turn off her burn. She got to duel Haru after that...and that was purely to give her a win but also try and connect her to Bohman through their sibling bonds...which was done okay. But her facing Bohman before his final boss stage was DIRTY. Felt like they didnt know what to do with her so got rid of her to also buff the final boss. And her last ever duel with her brother vs AI was another good one. Kinda wish we saw her acting more like the celebrity duelist she was first described as, or even a fun duel against Playmaker or Go Onizuka. Her dynamic with Emma and her brother were pretty great though.
I did the math, and assuming she didn't play significantly differently, she still would've lost to Soulburner regardless of that godawful anti-burn card (seriously, I've never seen the one-off cards be so blatant). I don't like that she lost, but that card itself wasn't the problem. Fusion of Fire was the real problem, even if its effect is admittedly sensible for Vrains (if still OP).
It quite a werid but powerful effects Burn effects on most of the card punishes opponent in a different way It's very damaging as those effects that need life points to pay will be affected That's quite interesting effects
I love Trickcstars!! It was the second deck I got to Platinum in Master Duel (I haven't gotten it to Diamond yet, and honestly don't think I really can). I built it slightly differently than I've seen, instead taking advantage of Trickstar Festival and Live Stage to get a bunch of their Links on the field. While some of them may not be very good, I think Bella Madonna, Foxglove Witch, Crimson Heart and Holly Angel are pretty decent. My version is a mix between normal Trickstar, and Trickstar Burn, cutting back on some burn cards to have more copies of Corobane, Festival, Live Stage. Overall, I think Trickstars are really fun to play, but I never want to face them again.
I feel like the Number Archetype should be reserved for when the Number cards aren’t also in a specific archetype. For example, if he does a Utopia archetype or a Galaxy-Eyes archetype video, he would not have to do Numbers 39, 93, 99 ( both), 62, 90, 95, and 107 just to name a few. For the record, I too want to see a video on it as well.
About the heart shaped keyhole removal, its coz the hand cuffs with that keyhole design are usually used on love hotels, so yeah, they are the kinky type but by removing the heart shape they can just say they are regular hand cuffs
Seeing this archetype was got me to go back to the game after not playing for a while. I honestly wish we saw her use the deck more since she had some cool anime only cards on it or even have it eventually appear alongside her Marincess card as to say she hasn't abandoned her identities from the past.
2:25- Not any more unfairly than the supporting cast in any other series before it. This franchise almost always does this. There will always be a point where the supporting cast gets the shaft, be it early on, nearing the end, somewhere in the middle, or in the case of the friends Yuma started with in Zexal, the entire runtime. Funny enough, they didn't start really giving the supporting cast great treatment until Sevens. It's the one thing that series does better than any other YGO show. It keeps the supporting characters relevant from start to finish, even giving the female lead a proper arc.
I remember dueling Blue Angel in Yu-Gi-Oh Legacy of the Duelist, and this Trickstar monsters were annoying to deal with. Especially when I used an Exodia deck. She always had a way to have me get rid of a piece of Exodia, or a card a needed to help me win the duel.
Taxstars is suprisingly easy to use. I recently got into Master Duel and it is probably the first deck I built from scratch (I got a Candina in my first 10 packs and the rest is history) and the only deck I use in ranked matches. Lycoris is really that annoying. She with Lightstage and a Darkroom deals 1k per draw.
Blue Angel/Girl/Maiden was treated so unfairly. She lost too many duels, was severely underused, and always had a damsel in distress kinda vibe to her. Idk if the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime has a thing against female characters (primarily in Vrains), or genuinely do not know how to create a fulfilling arc with them, but it is really apparent that they had a disdain for them in Vrains. The character herself had a really good premise too, with Aoi (Skye) being this outgoing and charismatic duelist in the virtual world, but being this reserved and shy person in the real world. Kinda providing commentary on how our social media presence contrasts our real life one. Such a shame she did not get the treatment she deserved.
Sexism is rather prevalent in anime, especially shonen. Consistently capable female protagonists that aren’t overly sexualized, while they do exist, are few and far between. More often than not female characters tend to fill traditional gender roles or are very “male gaze” oriented. This isn’t the fault of any one creator, more like society as a whole.
@@CaptinHavoc1 Sexualization and sexism are not related ideas. For example, male protagonists are also often overly sexualized, but you wouldn't find anybody calling that sexism. Your sexually repressive mindset pointing ONLY toward women is more than a bit sexist though... I'm not a fan of your anti-women agenda.
#cope. Also like how the opposite is true in shojo yet no one calls out Shojo. Hmm. Almost like A) Double Standards. B) If you pull that on Shojo anime you will be met with heavy criticism and ridicule. While it's accepted to rip on Shounen.
@@dontmisunderstand6041 the two ideas are related. They aren’t one and the same, and it’s not like where there’s one the other is guaranteed. The other commenter conflated the two. That said, women tend to be sexualized more and tend to face sexism more than men (neither statement means men don’t deal with either).
@@dontmisunderstand6041 That is true, sexualization is not *inherently* sexist. However, women are sexualized far more frequently and to a far greater extent than men, and those sexualized women often (but not always) have less character outside of their bodies than the sexualized men. The original commenter also touched a lot on how women in Yugioh were often damsels in distress and lost very frequently on screen in comparison to men with similar screen time. While those in a vacuum aren’t inherently sexist, having it happen in a consistent pattern to women at a far greater frequency than men shows a wider opinion of women in society
Ironically enough, there's a theory that Konami made the Marincess deck as a way to copy Bushiroad's Bermuda Triangle clan, which is a clan full of Mermaid idols
Let’s hope the number archetype come sooner or later, I also like trick stars but the effect damage gets only worse as the duel continues, but overall good archetype
TGS is right when saying that Trickstars are a good archetype, cause they are! But the one thing that Blue Angel suffered from was 2 things, 1. Bring a side character in a yuguoh show and 2. Her first duel was against the Mary Sue himself, Playmaker, the duelist incapable of losing lmao, she was destined to lose
Trickstars don't have strong extra deck cards? Interesting. This is news to me. Though my only experience with them is through Legacy of the Duelist, I found that it was essentially impossible for me to win without establishing a board of trickstar extra deck monsters and then shutting down the enemy with battle phase shenanigans. The only point of Lilybell is to mass produce extra deck monsters, and Lycoris is the only main deck monster you really want on the field more than any of the links.
Funny how you showed clips from zombie land saga when talking about the dark side of idol culture. That show is very good at protrating that. I don't know if you've seen but it's really good
Tbf I'd say this brutal defeat of Blue Angel was kind of a grand finale to this psycho game Spectre played with her. To show how he basically destroyed her not only in duel, but also on a psychological level. Might have been a little over the top, but it fit the context. What is sad however is how she kept on losing. With every loss Aoi stood up again and tried to learn from it. She deserved some wins as a payoff for growing so much as a character. With that said...how about a video on Sunavalon? Spectre probably was my favourite character of this show. And I love this concept of growing a tree and spawning weird spirits and soldiers to protect it.
honestly, i think blue angel was treated a bit unfairly, but only on the ground of every other character running a theme deck meaning she should not have been countered that hard. were the decks more fluid, yeah burns can be easily dealt with, but she did not play to the level her video game counterpart can.
Skye/Aoi was done SO dirty by the VRAINS anime that it's kinda frustrating, to be honest. Despite running what was, at the time, considered an extremely competitive deck she kept losing. The most frustrating loss for her was against Soulburner because like it or not, she had him dead to rights and would have won if not for him pulling a very spell designed specifically to counter Trickstar's burn damage.
Actually Aoi/Skye does go back to the trickstar archetype, Duel Links is Canon to Vrains lore, since the end of vrains sees Ai waking up, which is how the commercial for DL starts up and how Playmaker finds Ai in DL. Aoi returns to Link Vrains DL as Blue Angel and she uses the Trickstars again.
A friend got me into Duel Links... hadn't played since the start of XYZ monsters and the anniversary packs gave me the most of this Archetype, so I've been using them to learn what I've fallen behind on... they're fun to use and are a stall deck's nightmare 🤣 They may not be the strongest, but the summon spamability reminds me of the 6 Samurai archetype XD that being said, it looks like Duel Links doesn't have all of them yet...
Reminded of my mother's devious Doll deck she loved to utilize in Magic the Gathering years back. Purely an Artifact deck using the various Doll cards, her ace being a card called Creepy Doll, designed to tick away at the opponents life one at a time each turn while being borderline impossible to remove, just playing the long game, death by a thousand cuts. Showed her this and she gleefully agreed with the cutest and most devious cackle I've ever heard. XD
Oh they definitely treated her terribly and was up against characters that could specifically counter her deck not to mention faced the main bosses of 2 seasons 2 times and only lost those because they made her misplay in both of those simply due to plot cuz she’s not the main character and isn’t supposed to defeat them
I have used it with melodious. It gets a little bricky though, but the extra fusion monsters really help your defense a LOT with Ostinato. They can both synergize for Foxglove or the melodious link. Cards like Elegy and Sonata can give Trickstars extra punch in battle too. Right now Im trying to adjust to find the sweet spot in a purer build with Athena, time thief redoer and Avramax as tech cards.
Wanna hear about a crazy cool card for Trickstar decks? Appropriate. It is a continuous trap that lets you draw 2 cards whenever the enemy does. You know like what Trickstar Bloom, reincarnation and Crimson heart do. I adore Trickstars. Have them in Duel Links, Master duels and in real life. 🥰
They did Trickstars so dirty in Duel Links too You would think they would at least give Blue Angel a skill to let her inflict 200 damage points BUT NOPE. Only holly angel... they didn't even gave her say, the field spell searcher as part of the skill or as a 1 off as her level 30 reward (even though her debut event showed the card is indeed programmed in the game)
Fun fact: I came up with a ditch 9 card banish combo for this deck. First get a way to summon two Blooms. This can be done several ways. Trickstar festival, Nightshade's effect, light arena, any way to get it. Use 1, summon a bloom, have your opponent draw a card. Do it again a second time, have them draw another card. Next link those two into Crimson Heart. If you have a Trickstar card in hand, you can discard it and have you and your opponent draw 1 card each. Next is the part that requires more luck, but less luck if you have more cards that can do it. Place down a card like Present Card or play Card Destruction if you have it, which will nearly double how many cards get sent away. Next you end your turn, and your opponent draws a card, bringing them up to 9. Now this is the final move. Play the face down and ditch all of your opponents cards. The cherry on top? If your face down card is Reincarnation, that's 9 cards banished. Which can a lot of times, ruin your opponents whole game. It does take a small bit of luck, but with the amount of cards that can pull off the first move alone, you'll have an easy time pulling this off.
You forgot to mention that some Trickstars are also named after Popular Women. Trickstar Bella Madonna and Bloody Mary are named after, you know, THEM.
trickstar:" me and the girls will have endless combos our opponent cant do anything this turn" trick star(trickster and binary stars):" PREPARE FOR TROUBLE, and on the double, TO control the world with tricky cards, to cheapen the cost of only one card, announce the zombies brainy and crazy, witness the valkster deck that will drive you to insanity, BINARY and trickster Team Brainstorm, blast off with final mission, concede now and prepare for a bonus attack conclusion, monument fusion .
For the next archetype video, please make one for "Gaia the Knight"! This legendary warrior should be honored by making the archetype video regarding of his lore and evolution.
This archetype seems like fun. I’m getting back into this via Duel Links because it’s easier to grasp the concept. What I don’t get is how they determine how many arrows Link monsters get and where they point to. Like Trickstar Crimson Heart has such random arrows with one always pointing right and the other bottom-•left. Same with Trickstar Bella Madonna. The asymmetrical design when you’re thinking about the game board makes it a bit odd and off-putting even
I love trickstars and this video I’ve watched this video so many times it’s not even funny o im still watching it to this day. Well to be more precise im watching now lol
Curious fact. And bit of an oversight with card design: Bella Madonna cannot benefit from Corobane or Sweet Guitar's effects. Corobane cannot be used unless Bella Madonna is pointing to a monster (which wont let her use her effect). If Bella Madonna points to Band Sweet Guitar she cant burn. Sweet guitar on paper doesnt seem bad, but has bad synergy with the extra deck monsters, besides Holly Angel. Catbat loses an arrow for burning and has tricky arrows to use, FoxGlove witch has bad arrows and relatively high effort to bring out in the main monster zone, BellaMadonna cant use it, Crimson heart and Delfiendium cant burn and bloom would only have her effect in the event your sweet guitar was destroyed. We really need another fusion.
I just saw someone's video on the same day this video went out of someone showing a replay where someone else got out 3 of the burn draw Trickstar and the Field spell then played 2 Traps that shuffled back their deck do draw new cards which caused a bunch of burn damage to the point where the duel was over yet they were still getting burned.
I cannot tell you how surprised I was to discover foxglove witch is actually really good in trickstars with a good hand...and it's floating effect into divardis is also amazing, got me game quite a few times so I'm happy with this deck, although if you didn't get to diamond with it, I may have forgotten about it for longer
I usually pair Foxglove witch with Holly Angel for the attack point gain, can either prevent the opponent from a second attack, or sometimes I'll destroy witch, summon angel, then use the boosted attack to take out a monster
Can you please make character profile videos again please because you still haven’t made character profile videos about the Yugioh vrains,Yugioh sevens and Go rush series.

Idk if the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime has a thing against female characters (primarily in Vrains), or genuinely do not know how to create a fulfilling arc with them, but it is really apparent that they had a disdain for them in Vrains. The character herself had a really good premise too, with Aoi (Skye) being this outgoing and charismatic duelist in the virtual world, but being this reserved and shy person in the real world. Kinda providing commentary on how our social media presence contrasts our real life one. Such a shame she did not get the treatment she deserved.
Sexism is rather prevalent in anime, especially shonen. Consistently capable female protagonists that aren’t overly sexualized, while they do exist, are few and far between. More often than not female characters tend to fill traditional gender roles or are very “male gaze” oriented.
This isn’t the fault of any one creator, more like society as a whole.
@@CaptinHavoc1 Sexualization and sexism are not related ideas. For example, male protagonists are also often overly sexualized, but you wouldn't find anybody calling that sexism. Your sexually repressive mindset pointing ONLY toward women is more than a bit sexist though... I'm not a fan of your anti-women agenda.
#cope.
Also like how the opposite is true in shojo yet no one calls out Shojo.
Hmm. Almost like
A) Double Standards.
B) If you pull that on Shojo anime you will be met with heavy criticism and ridicule. While it's accepted to rip on Shounen.
@@dontmisunderstand6041 the two ideas are related. They aren’t one and the same, and it’s not like where there’s one the other is guaranteed. The other commenter conflated the two. That said, women tend to be sexualized more and tend to face sexism more than men (neither statement means men don’t deal with either).
@@dontmisunderstand6041 That is true, sexualization is not *inherently* sexist. However, women are sexualized far more frequently and to a far greater extent than men, and those sexualized women often (but not always) have less character outside of their bodies than the sexualized men.
The original commenter also touched a lot on how women in Yugioh were often damsels in distress and lost very frequently on screen in comparison to men with similar screen time. While those in a vacuum aren’t inherently sexist, having it happen in a consistent pattern to women at a far greater frequency than men shows a wider opinion of women in society
I've always loved Trickstars, I really wish they were playable
Blue angel got done so dirty and that los to specter my gosh I live how crazy he is
This reminds me. Yugioh character profiles for Vrains?
Trickstars is an interesting archetype where you can burn damage to your opponents. They're cute, but deadly idols
Lmao
Like how liking idols is the death of your wallet
Cause most idol fans do buy idol merchandise for their favourite idols
I’mma need that Madolche Archetype lore.
Yes please!
Yes
He already did that
@roninwarriorsfan No, he didn't make a Madolche Archetype video.
@@anonymousxiii4780 okay, what do you call this then? czcams.com/video/XVQp0ZVJvdk/video.htmlsi=IHHikrIrQZQuvj7B
VRAINS absolutely did Blue Angel dirty. She deserved more wins, and Trickstars deserve more support.
Ironically enough, there's a theory that Konami made the Marincess deck as a way to copy Bushiroad's Bermuda Triangle clan, which is a clan full of Mermaid idols
The real rules of Kiba' s spin disc dual system & the spearfield
Let’s hope the number archetype come sooner or later, I also like trick stars but the effect damage gets only worse as the duel continues, but overall good archetype
Dude, I must admit, Blue Angel is treated so wrong that it blew my mind. Even some anime antagonists aren't treated THAT badly.
TGS is right when saying that Trickstars are a good archetype, cause they are! But the one thing that Blue Angel suffered from was 2 things, 1. Bring a side character in a yuguoh show and 2. Her first duel was against the Mary Sue himself, Playmaker, the duelist incapable of losing lmao, she was destined to lose
"her unique item is a gun" sounds so funny considering this is supposed to be a children's card game
Trickstars don't have strong extra deck cards? Interesting. This is news to me. Though my only experience with them is through Legacy of the Duelist, I found that it was essentially impossible for me to win without establishing a board of trickstar extra deck monsters and then shutting down the enemy with battle phase shenanigans. The only point of Lilybell is to mass produce extra deck monsters, and Lycoris is the only main deck monster you really want on the field more than any of the links.
Omg! You still make these videos! Thank you so much. I really enjoy watching all your archetype videos especially Shiranui/Mayakashi saga
the logo is more of a skull-butterfly, with goes with the butterfly wings they have
Also what he also failed to tell ya is that reincarnation also go nastily with yata, with this you also complete the yata lock in modern yugioh
12:28 you won't be burnt from using Desires because this card only burns when you banish from the GY.
Funny how you showed clips from zombie land saga when talking about the dark side of idol culture. That show is very good at protrating that. I don't know if you've seen but it's really good
Also the I haven't seen the dub but it has a lot of talent from CZcams like ama lee
I have seen it, thought it was great!
The Rap battle was so good
19:09 Trickstar Bloom of Broom!
Tbf I'd say this brutal defeat of Blue Angel was kind of a grand finale to this psycho game Spectre played with her. To show how he basically destroyed her not only in duel, but also on a psychological level.
Might have been a little over the top, but it fit the context.
What is sad however is how she kept on losing. With every loss Aoi stood up again and tried to learn from it. She deserved some wins as a payoff for growing so much as a character.
With that said...how about a video on Sunavalon?
Spectre probably was my favourite character of this show. And I love this concept of growing a tree and spawning weird spirits and soldiers to protect it.
honestly, i think blue angel was treated a bit unfairly, but only on the ground of every other character running a theme deck meaning she should not have been countered that hard. were the decks more fluid, yeah burns can be easily dealt with, but she did not play to the level her video game counterpart can.
Skye/Aoi was done SO dirty by the VRAINS anime that it's kinda frustrating, to be honest. Despite running what was, at the time, considered an extremely competitive deck she kept losing. The most frustrating loss for her was against Soulburner because like it or not, she had him dead to rights and would have won if not for him pulling a very spell designed specifically to counter Trickstar's burn damage.
Ever since watching the -roid archetype video, I am now waiting for the speedroid archetype.
Half the time you'll be playing a Trickstar deck the other half you will be playing Brickstars.
17:25 ish link monsters are everywhere tho
TGS: what is she blowing?
My mind: HER MANAGER!
Ah yes, the deck that gave us cards to punish Maxx C” and hand rip the opponent
Actually Aoi/Skye does go back to the trickstar archetype, Duel Links is Canon to Vrains lore, since the end of vrains sees Ai waking up, which is how the commercial for DL starts up and how Playmaker finds Ai in DL. Aoi returns to Link Vrains DL as Blue Angel and she uses the Trickstars again.
it's the other way around, Vrains lore is canon to Duel Links, but it's the closest to an actual sequel to Vrains.
Lilybell’s torso shows a skull heart with blood underneath it.
Light stage at three feels so good after so long
A friend got me into Duel Links... hadn't played since the start of XYZ monsters and the anniversary packs gave me the most of this Archetype, so I've been using them to learn what I've fallen behind on... they're fun to use and are a stall deck's nightmare 🤣
They may not be the strongest, but the summon spamability reminds me of the 6 Samurai archetype XD
that being said, it looks like Duel Links doesn't have all of them yet...
Reminded of my mother's devious Doll deck she loved to utilize in Magic the Gathering years back. Purely an Artifact deck using the various Doll cards, her ace being a card called Creepy Doll, designed to tick away at the opponents life one at a time each turn while being borderline impossible to remove, just playing the long game, death by a thousand cuts. Showed her this and she gleefully agreed with the cutest and most devious cackle I've ever heard. XD
In before more trickstar support suddenly gets announced
Yu-Gi-Oh vrains greatness
And cue them announcing a LIGHT Duelist Pack.
If Trickstars get in, and not Star Seraph, even though they were on THE SAME SD POLL I would be mad.
I suggest…
Next archetype video: @Ignister
Next Duel Analysis: Yugi and Kaiba vs Noah
‘Naughty tune handcuffs’ 😂
As much as i lile your content, thruth is.i never cared to continue playing beyond the sinchro era. Fun video as always
Oh they definitely treated her terribly and was up against characters that could specifically counter her deck not to mention faced the main bosses of 2 seasons 2 times and only lost those because they made her misplay in both of those simply due to plot cuz she’s not the main character and isn’t supposed to defeat them
Yep it really pissed me off
Also Hydradrives are a garbage archetype.
A pure Lightsworn deck destroys Hydradrives lol
Dynasty of the Useless: Hydradrives
I knew it! I predicted it on your twitter 😁
🎉
I love this archetype! So pretty! I want to make a deck with it and Melodious or Windwitch!
I have used it with melodious. It gets a little bricky though, but the extra fusion monsters really help your defense a LOT with Ostinato. They can both synergize for Foxglove or the melodious link. Cards like Elegy and Sonata can give Trickstars extra punch in battle too.
Right now Im trying to adjust to find the sweet spot in a purer build with Athena, time thief redoer and Avramax as tech cards.
Wanna hear about a crazy cool card for Trickstar decks? Appropriate. It is a continuous trap that lets you draw 2 cards whenever the enemy does. You know like what Trickstar Bloom, reincarnation and Crimson heart do.
I adore Trickstars. Have them in Duel Links, Master duels and in real life. 🥰
I honestly think that the reason they didn’t keep going with the band themed cards is because they would get compared to the Melodious monsters.
@@togaprentice9927 I think they would be so pretty together I mean like Aoi and Yuzu would be like a great tag team.
@@qorv4973 that sounds cool I run a Trickstar deck now and Melodious is great for me. I have yet to figure out a combination of both I like.
8:16 Lily of the Bell/Valley
XD
8:20 Jesse we need to play trickstar
They did Trickstars so dirty in Duel Links too
You would think they would at least give Blue Angel a skill to let her inflict 200 damage points BUT NOPE. Only holly angel...
they didn't even gave her say, the field spell searcher as part of the skill or as a 1 off as her level 30 reward (even though her debut event showed the card is indeed programmed in the game)
Fun fact: I came up with a ditch 9 card banish combo for this deck. First get a way to summon two Blooms. This can be done several ways. Trickstar festival, Nightshade's effect, light arena, any way to get it. Use 1, summon a bloom, have your opponent draw a card. Do it again a second time, have them draw another card. Next link those two into Crimson Heart. If you have a Trickstar card in hand, you can discard it and have you and your opponent draw 1 card each. Next is the part that requires more luck, but less luck if you have more cards that can do it. Place down a card like Present Card or play Card Destruction if you have it, which will nearly double how many cards get sent away. Next you end your turn, and your opponent draws a card, bringing them up to 9. Now this is the final move. Play the face down and ditch all of your opponents cards. The cherry on top? If your face down card is Reincarnation, that's 9 cards banished. Which can a lot of times, ruin your opponents whole game. It does take a small bit of luck, but with the amount of cards that can pull off the first move alone, you'll have an easy time pulling this off.
You forgot to mention that some Trickstars are also named after Popular Women. Trickstar Bella Madonna and Bloody Mary are named after, you know, THEM.
trickstar:" me and the girls will have endless combos our opponent cant do anything this turn"
trick star(trickster and binary stars):" PREPARE FOR TROUBLE, and on the double, TO control the world with tricky cards, to cheapen the cost of only one card, announce the zombies brainy and crazy, witness the valkster deck that will drive you to insanity, BINARY and trickster
Team Brainstorm, blast off with final mission, concede now and prepare for a bonus attack conclusion, monument fusion .
Next duel scenario should be was Noah about to beat kaiba/yugi
3:07 I was not aware they were named after-
Heart-shaped SKULL EMBLEM? I didn’t realize THAT o_O
10:30
RACIST FLOWER!!! RACIST FLOWER!!!
the 5 not yet made trickstar cards could be printed in Animation Chronicle next year! I want it with all my soul!!!
PLEASE do a video about the D/D/D archetype soon !
For the next archetype video, please make one for "Gaia the Knight"!
This legendary warrior should be honored by making the archetype video regarding of his lore and evolution.
This archetype seems like fun. I’m getting back into this via Duel Links because it’s easier to grasp the concept. What I don’t get is how they determine how many arrows Link monsters get and where they point to. Like Trickstar Crimson Heart has such random arrows with one always pointing right and the other bottom-•left. Same with Trickstar Bella Madonna. The asymmetrical design when you’re thinking about the game board makes it a bit odd and off-putting even
Blue angel was done incredibly dirty
*Duel links:*
Trickstar archetype! Burn half of them.
That was amazing as always thanks for your work I like to see Reptilianne next or my be my favorite thunder dragon
I’ve lived and died for this video
the one who treated very badly in yugioh vrains was actually ghost girl instead of blue angel
you should do a video like this for the predaplant archetype
1:27 Divaridis is the only extra deck monster worth leaving then
1:40 BURN BABY BURN! 2:25 Yes it is. REALLY unfair
Freaking Amazing observations here man! Really brings new personality to this archetype.
God I wish this deck got more support
I love trickstars and this video I’ve watched this video so many times it’s not even funny o im still watching it to this day. Well to be more precise im watching now lol
Still waiting for that playmaker/AI profile video 😢
Curious fact. And bit of an oversight with card design: Bella Madonna cannot benefit from Corobane or Sweet Guitar's effects. Corobane cannot be used unless Bella Madonna is pointing to a monster (which wont let her use her effect). If Bella Madonna points to Band Sweet Guitar she cant burn.
Sweet guitar on paper doesnt seem bad, but has bad synergy with the extra deck monsters, besides Holly Angel. Catbat loses an arrow for burning and has tricky arrows to use, FoxGlove witch has bad arrows and relatively high effort to bring out in the main monster zone, BellaMadonna cant use it, Crimson heart and Delfiendium cant burn and bloom would only have her effect in the event your sweet guitar was destroyed.
We really need another fusion.
I just saw someone's video on the same day this video went out of someone showing a replay where someone else got out 3 of the burn draw Trickstar and the Field spell then played 2 Traps that shuffled back their deck do draw new cards which caused a bunch of burn damage to the point where the duel was over yet they were still getting burned.
I cannot tell you how surprised I was to discover foxglove witch is actually really good in trickstars with a good hand...and it's floating effect into divardis is also amazing, got me game quite a few times so I'm happy with this deck, although if you didn't get to diamond with it, I may have forgotten about it for longer
I usually pair Foxglove witch with Holly Angel for the attack point gain, can either prevent the opponent from a second attack, or sometimes I'll destroy witch, summon angel, then use the boosted attack to take out a monster
Ohhhhh I'm loving this Archetype omg I hope to start wielding this Archetype soon. ❤️❤️❤️
Can you please make character profile videos again please because you still haven’t made character profile videos about the Yugioh vrains,Yugioh sevens and Go rush series.
The way she ate shit onto the pavement got me wheezing man
Poor aoi she just couldn’t catch a break 😅😅😅
Man the artist's wife must of been in a sour mood when he made crimson heart
I still dont understand how a take 200 ok take 2 duelist can be a popular idol
Love this series
