So sad that Megas got cut in a tax off. Such a great show.
Qliphort towers waking up from a 5 year coma, “So you ruined Pend summoning… and then made an entire summoning mechanic that just beats me..?”
That deck has more problems than "what outs" Towers, I dont think it can ever be viable again without modern support or Vanities Emptiness coming off the list.......and going to 3.
That deck wins by forcing the other deck to slow down to its pace, but it just doesnt have a good way of doing that without overpowered floodgates. Also, it relies on Scout to get going which loses to damn near everything under the sun these days.
No, they didn't make a summoning mechanic that beats Towers. They literally just changed the rules to be objectively worse in every way to push a product. And then changed it back once they sold enough product. Also like, Kaiju exist.
@@krullachief669 I think he was referring to Link Monsters which get around Towers' Protection. Yes they also changed the pendulum zones to nerf that and help push Links, so its both of what you guys said.
wait you guys are summoning towers nowadays? XD
@@kindklan8020 I brought it one week a couple months back to a locals. Had it loaded up since I never off'd the deck. It was terrible lol. Won a single Match by the end of it because my opponent bricked both rounds.
-Ive officially retired that deck since, but I still have it. (Normally I play Machina)
Nice to see that Maxwell Frost is a recurring character in the MBT universe. One tiny step closer to governing with trading cards
He is the catalyst for JJ to save the world
The pure psychic damage of Cup of Ace always heads makes it far superior to a measly Pot of Greed
It's a shame couple of aces has a hard once because I draw into my other copies so often that it could be "better" cup of ace!
Just win the coin toss, it's that easy
@@AwesumVloggin see but then it’s just plus 6 and that would break the “this lets me draw two cards” anime rule
@@nathanmurillo1767 Except the anime literally had cards that drew 6.
@@Merilirem and we have Ursarctic Radiation
I like how Borrelsword is just like Borrelload but with gunswords instead of just regular guns and that just makes him so much better.
Same.
Revolver had good taste in dragons
never really thought about it, but it's true. borrelload is a dragon with guns, and borrelsword is just a dragon who's in RWBY
When you run outta gunsauce, you have a capable back up plan.
Sparks to Hinotama is the OG powercreep
My personal favorite is the entire Noble Knights archetype being replaced almost entirely by the Infernoble Knights (save for Isolde, which was banned in the newest list).
One of the few French wins
Isolde doesn’t even really count as a noble knight, also what does it mean for the actual noble knights
Maxwell Frost responding to the tweet with an absolute banger reply gotta be one of the funniest things ever
Twitter thread idea: So far, every (edit: not every one, but the thread idea still works) Illusion-type monster has a shared effect, similar to sub-types like Toon and Spirit monsters. If you could give the other types a shared effect, what would it be?
Give targeting and negation immunity to all divine-beast monsters.
Reptiles suck so just give all of them a rota as an activateable effect because why not
Almost every Illusion. They’ve already broken it and made a monster without the effect.
This one is good. Free content Joseph!
@@Dexiekun Its a normal monster tho it *barely* counts. Plus, Toons have Toon Aligator, and Spirits have both the spirit pends and Yamato-no-Kami. A few exceptions are allowed
veiler is a level 1 tuner, it's a spellcaster that can be used to link climb with Selene, and it's a small world target. Imperm is better in most situations, but there are uses for veiler.
Veiler is also better if you play Fantasmay as its actually live if you draw it off it.
@@Eiji475yeah for real in any deck that draws during opponents turn like Purrely Veiler can be better than Imperm in a lot of situations
Anyone remember the Selenecode Talker engine where Veiler off of a Halq got you to Accesscode Talker? Good times.
3:36 secure gardna kept seeing play w/ Almiraj even after Artemis came out, because you needed an extra deck monster in grave to bring out Maximuss in the invoked dogmatika decks
Beast King Barbaros is like they combined Moisture Creature and Gilford The Lighting, then made him better.
Of course, nowadays, if you ever see Barbaros, it's usually as a normal-summonable Big Chungus beatstick under Skill Drain, or a quick material for Rank 8 plays.
A Megas XLR AND Eric Andre Show reference???
Most excellent.
RIP Lance Reddick
I used to be huge on cards like underclock taker and pentastag. They were link 2s that required basically generic materials in an era when that wasn’t common, and the effects they had were just practical enough that it felt so good when they came up. Def the goats of the early link era.
Those cards are still good in Lunalight actually, Underclock especially.
The best way to win in general with the deck is to get out Leo Dancer, and you're almost assuredly going to be able to reduce an opponent's monster to 0 attack with Underclock's ability combined with Leo Dancer's 3,500 attack.
With her 2 attacks plus Underclock's 1,000 attack and her ability to destroy all special summoned monsters after an attack; just those two monsters together are quite often an OTK.
Pentastag my beloved Utopia OTK on a facedown enabler
@@windchimes8764 literally the best fucking feeling in the world.
Me coming back to Duel Links after 3.5 years last week and throwing Pentastag in my Machina deck to give Liebe piercing.
Played pentestag in Dino’s yesterday at locals still a great card
Rank 4 decks nowadays feel more like „what do i endboard together with abyss dweller“
I know that Gold Pride is like the 25th best deck, but they got a searcher with The Crowd Goes Wild and it was fine, since it was better than nothing, then they released the most custom ROTA for the deck that even draws you cards in the very next wave of support.
Reinforcement of Da Army?
Secure Gardna still saw play on Dogmatika builds because ppl noticed that they wanted to summon Maximus. Also Dinos still play it till this day.
Pretty sure some still play it in Invoked just cuz it gets you a FIRE monster for Purgatrio
You don't even see Accesscode anymore, now its all SP Little Knight
Tbf those are entirely different use cases
That’s because the big OTK enabler is Zealantis nowadays
Veiler can be used as link material and therefore is also an extender. Also doesn't lose to S/T removal.
I remember when Halq legal Striker use it as a target for link climbing into Accesscode because Selene need Spellcaster monster
Dire killing it as usual with that Megas XLR opening. That was such a fun show
Another card that DPE replaced was Dystopia. Once DPE was released there's almost no reason to play Dystopia in HERO decks.... unless you need Dystopia for the burn effect for some reason?
I'll have you know that Borreload Dragon still sees play... as the best Generic Link-4 in Common Charity...
I will say that when my blind second deck gets hit by Maxx “c”, I dread Veiler far more than Imperm… since the latter is dead while my opponent controls cards, and Veiler isn’t OPT, so they can just keep drawing into them and impeding me.
Impermanence is also not once per turn.
I just love my veiled because its a light. Chaos loves light/dark hand traps.
@@yasharthpandey6317no one is gonna remember that ,unless they are on a simulator
@@yasharthpandey6317 they explicitly said "my blind going second deck" because if the opponent draws Imperm and has something on their field it's dead, while Veiler can be freely used. A good example is in Marincess where they can draw with Bubblereef or Heatsoul decks.
You can still use infinite impermanence even if you control monsters. You won't be able to activate/use it in hand, but you can still set it and use it like a traditional trap card if you do.
Gonna push back on the Knightmare Unicorn segment; I think Unicorn is still pretty valuable when laddering into Accesscode for an OTK, and can spin something that you may not want to hit the GY back into the Deck on the way.
That is too specific for a tech card. SP is better in 99% of bored states cherry picking a few doesn't mean it didn't replace it.
@@DrAiPatch I'm not saying Unicorn can or should be run over S:P; I just think the two cards have slightly different utilities; S:P can be used defensively, whereas Unicorn is used for big pushes.
I'm playing both in my SS Fire King deck.
@@UshiUshiKakuThe2nd
I mean SP is a blatant example of power creep, but let’s be real, she doesn’t really replace a lot of these cards. DPE is still good as removal because it doesn’t come back and it’s destruction can cause degenerate game states (looking at Scythe still banned), but SP is just generic and easy to use it every deck going first or second.
Surprised they mentioned D. Shifter & not Magnamhut for the D.D. Crow comparison.
Sure, Crow can hit ANY card in grave, but if it’s a light/dark deck, why NOT ALSO get a 2500 beater & tutor a dragon (potentially ANOTHER D.D. Crow+)
For me it's gotta be Castel, completely replaced both Diamond Direwolf and Silent Honour Ark in rank-4 toolbox decks
TRUE!
The only other card with the same magnetude of cards that it powercrept like this is S:P Little Knight
Funny enough, honour ark is kinda better again as the destruction protection means you can punch something big and then go into zeus.
Black Ship Of Corn!
You absolutely still played silent honour ark after castel came out. Yoinking a one of means it's place in rank 4 toolbox lasted a while after castel
Multiple of these are just incorrect. Like yes sp is crazy but with unicorn it's more like how when castel came out and people still played a copy of silent honor ark too. And the all the most retraines one is wrong too, like people used cosmic cyclone and twin twisters for different types of things and twin twisters got powercrept by lightning storm and the return of duster but like cosmic cyclone is still entirely playable depending on what's in the format
Yeah this video really missed the mark imo.
OH MY GOD, I can't believe you used my favorite childhood show for the intro to the video, not many people know about that show🎉🎉❤
Funny enough Exciton Knight when it just came back to the TCG was great in my Go 2nd Dino list.
Speaking of Dinos, Borrelsword still has a valid spot in that deck! If you're running xeno meteorus and you lock yourself with it's effect, you can still link into borrelsword, where you wouldn't be able to with accesscode!
Seeing Max Frost comment at the end was the icing on the cake. Justice for my man Borreload 😂
Feral Imp completely replaced Celtic Guardian.
Not in my heart
Main problem with these cards is the generic nature of them. By that I mean the summoning requirements.
Yes and no. I think the great thing about having powerful generic cards like these is it gives more options for rogue strategies to close the gaps between their and their opponent's deck. The biggest downside is too many decks ending on similar boards. I think it's great that many decks can run 2-3 generic boss monsters out of a pool of 20-30 in addition to their own though
@@ImSumGuy That's true, but what I would really like to see is Decks that rely on engines instead. Engines add a small piece of a deck that fits well into another decks strategy or share a similar attribute or removes their weak points. Like adding in the branded engine or dpe engine if you bricked. Or the Adventure engine to gain an additional negate that doesn't require a NS. Most of the time these engines have 2 flaws that I think is fair: consistency and garnets.
Who remembers Crimson bladder being in every single deck for about a year and a half. I still look at it and just go. This might be a cool card in Swordsoul. Still hilarious that SP little knight is mandatory for almost every single deck but swordsoul does not run it not just because we don’t have the space but also because the synchro monsters they can make can be at times better than SP. still surprise how much the ice Jade level 10 synchro does
If you have a Crimson Bladder you should go to a doctor.
Literally because that Lv10 Ice Synchro ended up being splashable in Swordsouls, almost every Lv10 Synchro that came out afterward started REQUIRING a specific, non-wyrm type tuner for their summons. It was so funny.
For swordsouls little night goes to much minus to benefit from both of her effects cause the token locks you into synchros aslong you Control them so you need to synchron them 1st summoning some other Guy Link into her but without having a token on your field. If you Run Appledragon you could Run little knight in swordsoul but linking chixiao away still feels Bad i guess. Only the tenyi Limes get her Out pretty easy but ashuna does Lock you into wyrms only so its Not really good too
I forsee a lot of non link decks in the immediate future coming with "Cannot Summon from ED except Fusion/Synchro/Xyz" depending on the deck.
@@lilsunny7399 Or just „cannot summon monsters by Link summon“.
Borrelsword still has a niche in Dragon decks that dragon-lock you, like the Guardragons did, for example.
You can search veiler to hand more easily than you can Imperm, but that only matters if you are a go-first combo whose combo ends in searching some number of Veilers (or drawing them like Synchron did pre-Chaos Ruler ban).
Veiler is also a tuner, which can be a big deal for some decks.
Borrelsword did not fully powercreep Borrelsword, it was an agressive variation, but if a monster had destruction protection, or had an effect that you wanted to use, Load was the play, and I'm pretty sure most people ran both before Accesscode Talker.
Utopia Double replaced poor Utopia the Lightning (anyone remember that card?), which itself replaced our boy Diamond Crab King 😂
In my locals (when I still played physical), people on a budget used to Mirror Force their opponents to our borrelsword because unlike Accesscode, it didnt pop backrow before battlephase.
To be fair, Borrelsword Dragon cannot out Avramax.
But Borreload Dragon can, and thus Borrelsword is more of a (very good) sidegrade just as the theme implies.
I feel like Ash is starting to lose its spot to Droll
NOT THE MEGAS XLR 😂😂😂
Fun fact: The main character was voiced by the dad from Wizards of Waverly Place.
@@xatuyou8045 welp, that's a funny image,
I have came back to this video and have thought of 1 very specific one for the one deck I play, Insects! For a while you would play Aztekapede as it was a level 4 insect that summons itself and banishes one in grave, then they printed Beetrooper Assault Roller who does the same exact thing but can be normal summoned and also floats into a name if destroyed in battle which can come up
There was that short period of time where Mirrorjade replaced Destroyer phoenix enforcer, mostly because albaz on its own could be used if you drew him.
Albaz requires a lot of ED space, though, so I can see why that didn't last.
@@xCorvus7x they banned anaconda
@@xatuyou8045 ha, that too
I used to run borrelsword in a stupid blind second orcust deck because ding+sword is at least 8600 by itself, ding+accesscode is only 7900
3:07 “Great fly never really saw play”…
Unless you were doing the Galaxy tomahawk link climb.
Here’s an insignificant power creep: Pilgrim of the Ice Barrier is a slightly stronger Obnoxious Celtic Guard.
The craziest one for me is dragonic utopia ray and Leo utopia ray. Leo came out a month later, so it makes you wonder why Konami made 2 cards with near identical effects instead of making two distinct forms.
There's some evidence that dragonic utopia ray comes from an older Zexal anime script and was replaced by Leo utopia, so that may be why.
I still play Lightning Chidori in my harpie deck as one of my extra deck strats. Though, I don't often use him.
Not zerofyne?
Can't believe nobody mentioned cyber harpie lady which is literally the exact same card as harpie lady but has better stats.
harpie lady is currently better than cyber harpie lady, by virtue of being a normal monster and thus having access to normal monster support.
But nowadays you’d probably prefer the original for use with stuff like Unexpected Dai.
This is false. Harpy Lady got replaced by Harpy Lady 1, but by the time it was a playable deck, the original was played because of Unexpected Dai.
Going old-school I could point out that the advent of Jinzo completely obsoleted the former long-standing king of one-tribute monsters: Summoned Skull. Why run a 2500 vanilla when for 100 less attack power you could also permanently negate all traps?
That background music takes me back. Wario land: the shake dimension was such a good game!
MST retrains? I’ll stick with my three copies of nightbeam thank you very much
Gotta respect the nightbeam
how could my BOY LANphorhynchus not make an appearance here THE STAPLE link 2 monster during master rule 4 with bottom left/right arrows easily a main stay in almost every deck that needed to link lcimb
Chu Of Ace is literally POG, in Duel Links. I mean…They eventually nerfed Sartorious’ skill, but it really is basically the same card.
Since I can’t really think of other comparisons right now, this will have to do: Superheavy Samurai Gigagloves is the best battle trap for singular targets (It can make Quintett Magician useless. That’s always a plus in my book.).
Amazoness Fighter and Swordswoman. Neither are very good but one has a better statline and reflects battle damage while the other just prevents it
Hey, terminally addicted Invoked player here. Almiraj/Gardna is still being played in the Dogmatika version of invoked (which is the only competitive version atm). Being able to put almiraj in the graveyard allows you to make mechaba while also having something to banish for Maximus.
I did not expect a reference to the Lance Reddick skit, but it was a pleasant surprise, well played.
Veiler can be used on a field with cards on it, and its a Light for your chaos material.
Guess what, Imperm can be used on a field with cards on it too.
You see trap cards have this interesting property where you can “set” them, and then use their effect on the opponent’s turn.
Crazy huh.
@@jk844100 unthinkable. get out of here with that nonsense
About DPE vs SP, DPE is still much stronger, the issue is DPE requires a Fusion Spell and 2 garnets (you could argue these offer great followup though). Now imagine if SP's 2nd effect was a quicky like DPE, that card would be banned really fast while now you can somewhat play around it.
I actually can’t believe you didn’t realize it was Iblee on Unicorn…. Until I remembered that I’m the YuGiOh lore nerd who actually knows the lore and knows about the World Chalice crew and their entire story because I hyper fixate on shit that doesn’t matter and forget that people are actually normal.
based autism enjoyer
Yugioh has lore?
Pot of duality powercrept by desires, extravagance, and prosperity
the secure gardna thing is kinda incorrect. If youre playing Dogmatika engine its actually better to go for the almaraj and gardna line as it gives you another extra deck monster in GY to banish to summon maximus where the artemis does not. This is assuming you dont open nadhir servant. It also gives you a fire for follow up next turn to summon Purgatrio.
Well, yes. But also: Who plays Invoked in 2024?
Another good one is saveage, as powerful and widespread as he was, has been completely power crept by baron
Sword is not better than Load, they serve very different functions and there are many situations where Load is better.
With an extra deck so tight you're better off just accesscoding in anything without a dragon lock
5:02 As far as I remember, Salad chose Veiler over Imperm when they were meta because Imperm conflicted with Phantazmay. Personally, I see Veiler as an additional Small World Target if you also play Channeler for your attribute to get a starter.
I use Greatfly in one of my decks. Was basically the only way for me to get both Recital Starling and Assembled Nightingale on the field during MR4, and the attack boost actually was impactful in that scenario.
Zaborg was the big man on campus until Caius transferred in
I'm with Maxwell: I will never craft Accesscode, because I stand for Borrelsword if I have free Extra Deck slots for the boy and I can spam my field enough.
People still used Borreload Dragon after Borrelsword. It was really good at breaking Pure Thundra boards.
It was Avramax/Underworld Goddess that powercrept it. Avramax did what it did better with excellent synergy with IP and Goddess was a better link 4 for beating Towers type monsters.
It's very odd to claim one is better than the other when their applications are so different and situational.
Borreload saw a small amount of play in tear format as well. Wasn't consistent to make avramax in tear.
Max Frost taking time out of his busy schedule of cozying up to the GOP party line to let us know he's still on Borrelsword, how lovely
This might be anecdotal but remember when Thousand Eyes Restrict could reasonably be called a staple card but then Millennium Eyes Restrict came out and completely overthrew the predecessor? I don't know if I'd exactly call MER a strict upgrade since TES has some uses in burn or stall, but MER being able to clear your opponent's hand traps one by one and on either turn was kind of nuts.
dire just does better and better with the intro cut
The Megas XLR reference is so GOAT'd
Did DPE replace Dragoon? I mean, maybe when Verte was legal but now I still see decks use Muddragon to make Dragoon with a Bystial.
I guess the Meta just fell out of DPEs favor but it's still a really strong card. I don't even see it in Master Duel anymore where Verte is legal.
Dragoon didn't get replaced because it was actually never in the meta since there was no real meta from March 2020 to about March 2022. Even then one of the best decks ran dragoon because the other card can prevent you using from using your drytrons
Celestial was a big part of the power of the DPE package. He dropped off when Celestial got banned. Then there were like 3 or 4 metas in a row that hard countered him.
Things that didn’t happen in the tcg…
In terms of Decks its gotta be either Swordsouls or Spright, both of them are still very strong and consistent decks that just got swept to the side the moment the next sets got released and now they sort of just exists without any real hits other than Elf for Spright
that happens to every older meta deck. only issue is konami is making so many new busted cards at an increasingly high rate
Well elf is Just a Problemcard in General and Not only for its archtype wich is why elf is banned i think
swordsouls has protos banned or it could ftk pretty much and spright has the toad line banned
@@andreabuzzolani7205ygo, by this point, not taking the "x and y are banned WITH each other. meaning x nor y INDIVIDUALLY are banned, but only when in the same deck
In a way every summon mechanic besides pen . Is an upgrade in its self😂
i still occasionally play borrelsword in some decks depending on how much damage i need or what the board state is sometimes i jusnt need the extra damage
Based Megas XLR reference
All this taught me is that Yugioh has an immense power creep problem.
To adequately show just how power crept out dragoon is by DPE, I was playing against a dark magician player the other day. He established a sort of board, then went into anaconda, I thought for sure he's going to make dragoon. Nope, outcomes DPE. He had to add in extra bricks when he was already playing the dark magician stuff!
Okay but taking a DM player as the standard for "good cards" is kind of counterproductive 😂
That megas intro was so good!!!
I kinda miss early Master Rule 4. Every deck that used the extra deck needed Links in order to operate so we were in a weird moment in power creep where every "good" deck was running some of the most busted cards from the previous era like Trish and LANphorhynchus in the same deck
Ariseheart eclipsing Drident. Like whoaaa a quick effect pop was crazy in 2017 and then we got a quick effect banish something facedown and also be a Macro.
Although i guess Ariseheart isn't truly generic and Zeus allows the Zoos to stay relevant.
You know what else eclipsed Drident? S:P
Tbf when everyone and their mother was splashing Kash cards in their main deck, you can argue that it was functionally just the Zoodiac engine 2.0
Least that was sorta the case in MD
4:08 Kuribandits Jumpscare
SP Little Knight and Accesscode Talker are the biggest offenders of this.
That Megas xlr intro brings me back. loved that show.
Like if you remember Megas xlr.

With the Spell/Trap hating spirals I can appreciate that they each at least have their own niche so any of them could be the pick even if some are clearly favourable more often than others. MST is basic, has nothing "extra" but also is without costs or conditions. Galaxy Cyclone can be used twice, once normally and again from GY, but is a hard opt and cares about whether the target is face up or down. Twin Twisters is 2 MST simultaneously but it costs a discard. And lastly (for now) Cosmic Cyclone is an MST that banishes instead of destroying, but has an LP cost to activate. Each has a niche where one would be meaningfully more useful than the others, where some other direct creep examples don't have that dynamic.
I beg you can we get an all intros compilation. It would make me so freaking happy
I think it's interesting that we've got a handful from DM/GX (Mechchaser, Dimpris) and a ton from the past 7 years, but what about that time in the middle? Anyone have examples for "this card is just better" from the 5Ds or Zexal eras?
The Fiendish Chain>Forbidden Chalice>Breakthrough Skill example is that, the first 2 cards are from 5Ds, the later is from Zexal. I guess a broader example would be the synchro 6/7/8 pool being replaced by the rank 4 toolbox.
Most of the stuff around 5ds was still konami trying to figure out what they wanted the extra deck to be, so a lot of cards had wildly different effects, that could feasibly fit different situations, even if 1 card was better than another in most of them.
Crazy how no one mentioned the oldest one, dark hole and raigeki
In the last year dark hole has been played more than raigeki though
Well they came Out in the Same Pack so it
doesnt really Count nowadays darkhole IS more playable than raigeki wich is kinda funny to be honest
Magical Android being the only playable Lv 5 synchro and was like 20 bucks then like 4 months later catastor came out
I can't believe I'm saying this, but Dire deserves a raise for that Lance Reddick reference
5:11 There is a difference though. You can chain vieler to vieler and you can't do the same with imperm. Comes up more than you think...
did nobody talk about how Broww - Huntsman of Darkworld completely powercrept the famous Electric Snake? I mean, when was the last time you saw Electric Snake seeing play?
Dire you have fucking outdone yourself with the intro today. Megas XLR is so unbelievably goated. Chicks dig giant robots.
Clara & Rushka still see play to this day in meta topping decks thanks to S:P.
How many of y'all even recognize that opening?
i dont please enlighten me
just wanted to thank dire for the Wario music on this one
Megas XLR intro is fire
