So the plan is for you to branch out a bit now, right? In that case can I just ask politely, or do I have to donate to your patreon to have you make a video on those slavic gaming magazines you talked about during your first podcast with Cvit?
The lore of this archetype is absolutely insane. The short version is that Noellia and Natalia (back then as part of the Ice Barriers) tried to kill Steelswarm big b0i and Natalia got killed. The Steelswarm then poisoned Noellias mind which turned her basically in a combination of Lusamine and the evil mom from Kill La Kill. She then killed her own daughter to create Gustkraken for the sake of being a terrible mother and flooding the world. Psychelone is a version where she is completely posessed by the Steelswarm (but she can still step on me anytime). She then ressurected the three Ice Barrier Dragons and turned them into the Evilswarm b0is known as Bahamut, Ouroboros and NOphion. Somewhere along the lines she was saved from the swarm, ressurected her daughter and sacrificed herself to kill Tierra with the power of Zealgigas (who is Steelswarm big b0i but kinda dead). Her daughter Emilia then fucked Gishki pretty anime boy and Shurit was born. Yes, this is the short version. I fucking adore this deck.
I love Duel Terminal lore but at the same time hate the fact that it puts such a limit on possible future support. Sure, we might get the occasional random support like Neo Flamvell Lady but due to lore restrictions we're probably never getting another bigger wave of Gishki (or any Duel Terminal archetype) support ever again.
It's so weird seeing this Archetype,I'm just going like "so this is where Nekroz came from." I mean it makes sense since Gishiki Avarance is Shurit's dad but still,seeing the sword and the mirror.
Noell and Natalia aint tried to kill steelswarm They try to revive and control them instead of releasing ice barrier final dragon, in which they think it would be enough to wipe the Worms instead of freeze the world altogether Noell corrupted Declare war against gustos Do stupid advanced ritual on Emilia which gets her killed and separated her soul and body Then do more advanced with ritual with the body (gustkraken, merrowgeist) and the soul (levianima by using avance body)
Gishki taught Konami a valuable lesson about hard once per turns (If u listen carefully u can hear Firewall dragon is dying of laughter in his jail cell hearing that)

@@JinwooYoon1217 So I just have to take their word for it that they don't have whatever card was called unless the graveyard is empty of that card and it's not face-up on the field? That sounds really stupid.
@@theoryoftheinnocent It's definitely a non-perfect solution. However, knowing the opponents hand has only gotten more and more potent as the game ages, due to power creep.

In a deck aiming to cycle it with water support, its possible to ridiculously easily loop her 5 times. Its bonkers, especially if your opponent thinks negating the effects will actually stop anything. Takes a perfect hand of Shadow, Vision, 2 Salvage and a ritual spell tho.
To be fair ARC-V had one ritual user (Prediction Princess deck if I remember correctly), and Yuya used Odd-Eyes Gravity in that one duel soooooo... yeah at least they mentioned it
Still waiting patiently for some Chess Archfiend retrains. The only deck I held onto when I quit YGO was my Chess Archfiend deck so they kind of have a special place in my cold, dessicated heart.
@@lordkrauser me too. I tried, really hard to make them work in the modern era with synchros. They kind of worked, so long as the opponent didn't blow up Pandemonium. Though it was mostly Red Dragon Archfiend and up turbo-

skullking119 one card that’s outside of the archetype, with the only relevant searchers being limited and semi limited, wouldn’t be enough to put it above 1.5. Add on that Rata felt he was kind with the power and it wouldn’t have changed anything. No, metaverse and Demise don’t matter, they’re too slow. One is a trap and one literally waits for your opponent to do shit
The best part is they just unbanned both so Gishki is at full power. Though really you only need 2. I like to run a bonkers Gishki Ritual deck whose main game plan is normal summoning Deep Sea Diva, summoning Atlantean Prince and getting a bonus search, then looping Gustkraken and finishing on a Trishula. (Cause lvl 6+2+1 is 9 lol) It rarely happens so I run a Synchro toolbox with the deck about 1/3 gishki ritual stuff, including Forbidden Arts cause so many boss monsters nowadays are lvl 10 or lower Synchro or Fudion monsters. It is endlessly entertaining to bait a Red Eyes Dragoon negate with a phony search and then tribute them for a Zielgigas.
@@amberhernandez Now that's a binder I'd like to have. Along with it's counterpart Nightmare Fuel binder, which contains scary, eldritch, outlandish, lovecraftian cards.... ....mainly Gen 1 Normal monster + Ojamas.
The fact that you gave love to the best card in the world, Convulsion of Nature, makes me want to fly to Montenegro in Corona time and kiss you in forehead
gotta love when konami makes an archetype that messes around with the opponent's hand without a once per turn clause, only to immediatley regret it afterwards.. "cough" wind up/ junk speeder'n'omega "cough"
Eh... I don't think they quite regretted it. I think I heard that the Wind-up handloop was actually featured by Konami on their website to promote their sales, and followed by the March 2013 list that completely ignored the playbase complaining about the loop in favour of killing off anyone who might still be thinking of playing Synchro's in XYZ era.
So after watching this video again, I was curious to see if the Yugioh Wiki had lore details on the trivia entry for their pages. What I found was a lot of "this card may depict a specific scene in the lore", but the thing that I found most hilarious was the line "The effect of Gishki Emilia that negates Trap card effects could be like her trying to stop this card". It's like some TV Tropes "GUYS WHAT IF" wild theories that try to connect game mechanics to lore in bizarre ways, and it also implies I guess that Emilia, the card, is aware of the card that depicts her death? Like, if I have Emilia on the field, and my opponent activates this card, is Emilia watching herself die? So she's trying to stop it? That just raises more questions than answers.
As crazy as it sounds, is the way Konami makes lore related cards, this is reason why we get INCREDIBLE sinergies like search Albaz with Nadir Servant 😐
6:25 : Gishki Emilia actually negates ALL traps when they are on the field (i.e. does nothing to cards that activate in the graveyard) not just continuous traps. I had a Gishki Deck in Duel Links when we only had Ariel, Emilia and Natalia (first Water DD event). It used to really trip up people and it was GLORIOUS! With Shinobird Shrine, Yami and that spirit monster mirror equip card on Natalia it made for some powerful beatdown fun. It wasn't top tier but I just LOVED to surprised people with these ladies! Ariel's defense was MASSIVE in the days.

@@megamegasamx1014 It's more that Aqua is supposed to be anything in that would be aquatic but is not either of the other two, e.g. amphibians (frogs), molluscs, crustaceans, and of course slimes.

After Nekroz, Gishki, and even Demise cards, along with the casual prevalence of the Blue eyes Chaos dragons, I am anticipating another ritual deck to become meta in the near future. Would be nice to see a different play style with the cards, maybe at the end of the link era.
Word of warning to all Gishki players: Do not be like my one YGOPRO opponent who went first. He made a Zielgigas turn 1. He paid 1000. He drew a Gishki. Zielgigas promptly peaced out of there back into the deck. The shuffle effect is not optional.
@@black97_0 last I heard of he got the shit kicked out of him by a sociopathic alien from another dimension then got turned into a literal puppet by said sociopathic alien from another dimension

@@runningoncylinders3829 We do now... And a Zefra that tributes himself to Ritual Summon. Now we are missing a handtrap and from the Graveyard... Oh, right Super Soldier Ritual! Does it count as Ritual Summon?
The best thing about Gishki is the lore! It's by no means super-original, but it has a really satisfying arc, and for once, the cards involved present the story coherently enough to make sense of without unearthing the lost tablets of the Duel Terminals.
Gishkis are still my favorite deck to play. Consistency without being degenerate. Also a great lore-related successor to my poor neglected Ice Barriers.
9:26 Isn't there going to be some movie with the literal child of Sharkboy and Lavagirl? If that happens to be the case then we can officially say that Rata is a fucking prophet.
This was one of the Archtypes I had been waiting for you to reach. I first dealt with them on the 2010/2011 championship yugioh video games, and loved their crazy looping turns. Sorry for stating any you have done before, but I also want to see a Gusto/Laval... I guess just those 2, I was thinking there was an Earth archtype that showed up around that time but I cannot think of it. Check out Dueling book custom cards I made some referencing various Yugitubers; the designer is Ziro Katsuya... I think you will like the "Rata the evergoing Espada" and the "Ojama Will Smith" and the ones I made for Slaydra and "Hard Leg Joe Master of Yu-Gi-Oh!" cards. I made them as references with effects or odd stats in the case of Joes.
when playing the Zielgigas (lvl 10) variant you sould play "mount of the bound creator" for its protection and burn. Belive me putting two monsters with protection on par with "Chaos Max Dragon" is really strong and can save your from being killed turn 2.
Vlad Velasquez nothing is save from the borells unless they are immune to monster effects. But being save from targeting, effect destruction and monsters with less than 3100 atk protects them from 80% of commonly played removal options Your argument is essentially: it isn’t a towers, so it’s shit. Which just shows a bad understanding of this game.
As a Gishki/Nekroz Player, I am honored to see this video! Now make my other favorite Archetype please! Scraps! Edit: Also just pointing this out there, the idea with Noelia is to dump your Ritual Monsters along with Aquamirror into the graveyard so you can use Aquamirror's secondary effect to bounce the Monsters to your hand while sending the Mirrors back into the deck. Then you drop a Shadow to get the Mirror back to your hand and then shenanigans go off. Noelia is devastating if used right.

He lives! The golden child lives! And he brought fish!
I remember getting some random Goshki cards in a box I bought once; Diviner, Aquamirror, and Mindaugus. The art really is badass on this archetype.
You did Red Eyes and Blue Eyes. Still waiting for the Dark Magician Archetype Archive to finish up the 3 DM Poster cards
It's a bit of a biggie depending on which cards fit the theme of Dark Magician vs. being direct DM support.
I suppose the latter is all you need for an Archetype Archive, but so many additional cards would be worth the mention.
@@runningoncylinders3829 maybe oly dark magician support with some minor mentions of dark magician girl and when she directly supports, or force dark magician to include her, when doing spells. and just saying her "gang of Magical Girls won't be included for now, but they will have their own Gig later" , and neither the "Pendulum Magicians of fake publicity, who will need to wait until we dissectionate their archetypes from the performapals, and odd-eyes to do 3 videos"
@@ianr.navahuber2195 Of course, I meant stuff like Magician of Black Chaos, Sorceror of Dark Magic, Dark Eradicator Warlock, Mirage Knight, Timaeus, Skilled Dark Magician, Palladium Oracle Mahad, and even Magi Gal because DMG is still part of DM's Archetype.
@@runningoncylinders3829 Maybe he could do liek with Six Samurai. briefly mentioning the and why they aren't worth running and mentioning WHy you should rusn the others like Timaeus. and Mahad
Maybe he should do it as a big 100k subscriber extended episode.
After Nekroz, Gishki, and even Demise cards, along with the casual prevalence of the Blue eyes Chaos dragons, I am anticipating another ritual deck to become meta in the near future. Would be nice to see a different play style with the cards, maybe at the end of the link era.
But after the link era come gimbit summoning
Maybe Zombie/Vendreads, if they get some really good support or a new boss monster, unaffected by fuck all.
Megalith: allow us to introduce ourselves
Drytron: Allow us to introduce ourselves.
Well you were right, Drytron and to an extent Megalith became things and have/had some meta relevance.

Seeing with Drytrons. The weird kid’s knees are healed and now he’s summoning the power of god to prevent the others from playing
The plural would be "Zielgigantes"

Man, that hurts. I love those flippy bugs.
Do you also feel the pain from them getting most of their swarming abilities neutered by MR5?

Yes...

What a coincidence, I just opened my fridge and saw that the fish in it had gone rotten.
Word of warning to all Gishki players: Do not be like my one YGOPRO opponent who went first. He made a Zielgigas turn 1. He paid 1000. He drew a Gishki. Zielgigas promptly peaced out of there back into the deck. The shuffle effect is not optional.
Okay this is my absolute favorite Yu-Gi-Oh video of all time, solely because St Joan appeared for about 2 seconds in it.
1:48 - "Its a Level 2 WATER Fish" Card is so badly designed your brain misfired trying to read it. LOL
Well to be fair it looks like a fish so I understand the confusion.
Saw Gustkraken was back to 3 and came as quickly as I could.
Hm? Oh don't mind me
I'm having frog legs today
They are toadally delicious
Are you the brother of Number 96: Dark Smoke us Vendread monsters heard about? We are proud to meet you, Black Fog.
@@finedandys1340 you mean Number 96: Dark Mist?
Yeah he's my brother.
Haven't seen him in a while.
How's he doing?
@@black97_0 last I heard of he got the shit kicked out of him by a sociopathic alien from another dimension then got turned into a literal puppet by said sociopathic alien from another dimension
@@DMDarren oh no, aniway
So did anyone else notice that mind augus has the clause that it ‘can’t be normal summoned or set’ as well?
Why does this need to be stated?
What I find weirder is that they chose to make the new Shaddoll Fusion from the structure deck a reimagining of Mind Augus at least in terms of design.
They cant even be special summoned by means other than Ritual. Any summon restriction is utterly redundant
@@clayxros576 they can. If summoned properly, they can be revived from GY.
Now it's revealed that best mama used to be an ice barrier which explains why she tried to revive trishula
I don't even know why but I've always had a soft spot for the ritual mechanic...
6:25
Last I checked Ritual builds weren't big fans of Anti-Spell. So there's at least one.
We've had Fusion Traps, but have we ever had a Ritual Trap?
@@runningoncylinders3829 Urgent ritual art and renewal of the world
@@Effrenatus Thanks
There is a nekroz ritual trap i think also vendread have one
@@runningoncylinders3829 We do now... And a Zefra that tributes himself to Ritual Summon. Now we are missing a handtrap and from the Graveyard...
Oh, right Super Soldier Ritual! Does it count as Ritual Summon?
The best thing about Gishki is the lore! It's by no means super-original, but it has a really satisfying arc, and for once, the cards involved present the story coherently enough to make sense of without unearthing the lost tablets of the Duel Terminals.
Flameveil *Lore Man* is the reason why I watch the Accel Sag- I mean Rata
Me: Time to go to sleep
Rata: *uploads*
Me: What is sleep
What is sleep? Rata don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more~
Never clicked on something so goddamn fast, Gishki is one deck I wanna see more of
0:13 this music belongs to one of the best bossbattles in gaming history 🤩
Psychologist: Gishki Sebastian is real and is waiting under your bed for you to fall asleep.
Me: Dude... uncool.
I always liked the gishiki designs, good mixture if fish features and human parts.
Gishkis are still my favorite deck to play. Consistency without being degenerate. Also a great lore-related successor to my poor neglected Ice Barriers.
9:26 Isn't there going to be some movie with the literal child of Sharkboy and Lavagirl? If that happens to be the case then we can officially say that Rata is a fucking prophet.
This was one of the Archtypes I had been waiting for you to reach.
I first dealt with them on the 2010/2011 championship yugioh video games, and loved their crazy looping turns.
Sorry for stating any you have done before, but I also want to see a Gusto/Laval... I guess just those 2, I was thinking there was an Earth archtype that showed up around that time but I cannot think of it.
Check out Dueling book custom cards I made some referencing various Yugitubers; the designer is Ziro Katsuya... I think you will like the "Rata the evergoing Espada" and the "Ojama Will Smith" and the ones I made for Slaydra and "Hard Leg Joe Master of Yu-Gi-Oh!" cards. I made them as references with effects or odd stats in the case of Joes.
8:14 I can't breathe
It goes it goes it goes it goes *GISHKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII*
*BYAH!*
Death grips AND homestuck? 😎
Guess who’s back?
Back again!
this was easily the best archetype archive yet, with great analysis and plenty of humor. each one is better than the last, i love this channel
Also why is deep sea diva still at 1
**Demonic Chanting** UNDER DA SEA
the reference drinking game
take a shot everytime rata makes a reference
stop drinking if you start seeing ojama lee outside of the video
#thingstonotdo
hospitals are busy enough
Here because Gishki got new cards announced
Same here
The mini edits you have always make these even better. Love watching your videos
no handtrap no hand
Oh, im sorry
The existence of nekroz and the way they hit the scene as a tier 1 powerhouse is an inside joke against the guy who designed the Gishkis
when playing the Zielgigas (lvl 10) variant you sould play "mount of the bound creator" for its protection and burn. Belive me putting two monsters with protection on par with "Chaos Max Dragon" is really strong and can save your from being killed turn 2.
Most people run Borreload or Borrelsword so it does nothing tbh. Orcusts are particularly nasty with Longirsu.
Vlad Velasquez nothing is save from the borells unless they are immune to monster effects. But being save from targeting, effect destruction and monsters with less than 3100 atk protects them from 80% of commonly played removal options
Your argument is essentially: it isn’t a towers, so it’s shit.
Which just shows a bad understanding of this game.
Should I run it at 1, 2 or 3?
Dr.Nakisey at 5. It’s your only real form of protection aside from big numbers and rarely a train.
The wrath of Krawlers and Tindangles will sweep across the board, destroying your feeling of safetyness as you will not dare attack even one card.
He has no idea...
Emilia negates all Trap Card effects... she's basically Trap Stun
Really surprised people in Duel Links with that effect hehehe. Oh, you have a battle trap? NOPE!
with all the Bloodborne References am i the only person who would love to see Rata play it XD
RANK10BOI. If you don't give me the Gladiator Beasts archetype archive I'm going to reinstate the SFR Yugoslavia.

*KIMOCHI*
As a Gishki/Nekroz Player, I am honored to see this video!
Now make my other favorite Archetype please! Scraps!
Edit: Also just pointing this out there, the idea with Noelia is to dump your Ritual Monsters along with Aquamirror into the graveyard so you can use Aquamirror's secondary effect to bounce the Monsters to your hand while sending the Mirrors back into the deck.
Then you drop a Shadow to get the Mirror back to your hand and then shenanigans go off.
Noelia is devastating if used right.
Ive always loved ritual monsters and I dont know why but yeah thanks for doing a ritual deck you made my day
Rituals are just really cool and flavourful. Makes you feel like you're an actual wizard doing wizardry, that's how it feels for me hahaha
they could have gone with Magishki instead of evigishki
ma=dark
so MaGishki would be a fun little pun
Ma menas dark in what language?
Not sure it means dark, more like evil, or demonic.
sounds dumb tho
Or since the corruption is the Inverz (Evilswarm) InveRitual?
That would have sounded even dumber.
"What about Krawlers." ouch, man.
What about krawlers?
Don't you DARE diss on my favorite bug bois!
Ah, my favorite archetype of all time! Loved the video, it was a fair overview of Gishkis with some great jokes.
I had to stop watching promised neverland to watch this. Time well spent.
The lime bits are incredibly funny, always great to end a video on such a high note.
Ocean man
Loop my entire hand
is this the closest we'll get to an another episode of the Dual Terminal series that's in permanent haitus? the lore is there. rata basically is telling us a story lore in an _animated_ video. .. guess so..
Hell yes, finally we're getting new Gishki support!
I love the editing as always, even the random calculator joke got me haha
What about the other water ritual archetype, Cyber Dragons?
It sucks, Cyber Dragons are my main deck but I can't afford it now that Fortress Whale is a 3-of primary playmaker.
No matter how many times i watch this vid the 'what about crawlers?' part makes me laugh every single time
Your lucky I'm still awake Rank10. Ill give you a view
Honestly rata never disappoints. You're a funny dude, and the Ariel bit made me laugh out loud. Kudos dude. Looking forward to the next thing ya got in store
