thats great but havent hear any yogituber speaks about it unlike eldlich , infernoble knights and adamancipator
"How much money are you willing to invest in your deck?"
"Up to 200$"
"Casual it is!"
@shrankTheFirst how much will I have to invest for competitive play
@@jasonmcdaniel2506 Most decks featured in "yugiohtopdecks.com" have prices ranging from 500$ to over 1000$, though a significant portion of that price goes into staples and extra deck cards that can be used in several decks. The core of most competitively viable decks will run between 100-200$, the rest of the price tag are staple power cards and generic extra deck monsters.
@@ShrankTheFirst thanks for the info I started playing duel links to get the feel for it again thought I would do competitive play sometime down the road

All these questions but forgetting the most important one: Budget.
In most locals you’ll find friendly ppl willing to lend you cards for an afternoon or just a tournament
Most people picking up a deck will play online. Only an idiot would buy a deck without knowing if the play style suits you or is fun.
Oskar Evans lol I did that, luckily I lucked out-I chose prank kids a few months back, by far the favorite deck I’ve had

the no.1 question I always ask anyone around me who wants to start playing any TCG ever: "what's your budget?"
gotta know how deep they're willing to sink their wallet into this, then we work from there and see alternatives around the budget, its pointless to spend hours talking about super meta and powerful decks that could win or their favorite decks if their budget couldn't cover it
Heh, biggest example is me🤣

I'm happy to hear you take casual player interests into consideration. It's easy for seasoned players to write off a lot of decks because they can't compete but I feel that you can have fun with suboptimal archetypes and strategies, as long as you don't get your hopes up too high in unfavorable matchups. It's a game so have fun with it
I, just today, decided that i wanted to try out yugioh again.
So I bought some cards to try and prepare for Phantom rage this November because I decided to build a Phantom knights deck.
I'm a huge Fan of Darksouls and knights in generall and I really like the Design of the Phantom knight cards.
I can't wait for the New support and to open some packs again to try and build my own deck with a mix of singles and product.
I've also never been to a tournament before since i played more casually back in the day with my friends mostly.
The last time I played with actual cards Was back when the Six Samurai deck released; so at the Start of the xyz era.
I've definetely got a lot of catching up to do and I really want to thank YOU Cimoo and other Yugitubers like Mbt Revz and Nymhnymh for peaking my interest in the game again and making interesting content that even someone who doesn't play the game can enjoy.
Sincerely thank you :)
Phantom Knights are available in the "Legendary Heroes" box 2018, which also contains the Destiny HERO & Nordic decks. In Amazon, the decks can be sold separately if you just wanted "The Phantom Knights".
I highly recommend that you buy singles ,instead of trying to get all the cards you need by pulling them from packs. It's way cheaper (in most cases), but if you want to open some packs for the fun of it, go ahead.
You should play the deck online first before deciding to buy any of the cards
Thanks for the suggestions^^
I bought the baseline of the Extra and Maindeck today as Singles (so cards like Phantomknight blade, cloak, silent boots etc.).
I held off on some cards since i bought a couple tins of lost memories.(mainly because i wanted to open some packs since I haven't scratched that itch in years xD)
I got an Appulousa from the first 2 tins which was super lucky but there are still 2 cards for the planned extra deck in there and I'm waiting till weekend for my other 2 to arrive.
But other than that I don't plan to buy too much sealed product; mainly just Phantom rage when it releases to get the satisfaction of finishing the deck with opened packs instead of complete Singles.
I'm aware it's a lot more expensive but i think the joy cancels it out for me at least in this situation^^
Concerning the side deck:
I want to have a budget setup at first so the list i've got is:
3x cosmic cyclone
3x forbidden chalice
3x gamciel or radian (thinking about Putting allure in the deck)
3x called by the grave
1x imperial order
2x ghost ogre
I've got 3 ash in and 3 darkruler in main. I know it's Lp restriction doesn't really play well with the arc rebellion otk but since droplet is expensive it's the only other option.
Kaiju for Dragoon, Chalice as budget Imperm, cyclone as backrow hate, called by because Handtraps are a thing.
Imperial and ogre are more filler but i can't really think of something else besides droll/lancia which apparently aren't really that good in the meta right now.
Any suggestions?
Maybe D/D crow?

I'm a returning casual player and while I don't think I'm competitive by any means, I feel like my understanding of the game is expanding by getting back into it and having fun. Right now I'm using a Monarch deck and while I don't play an extra deck I've been having a blast playing with friends again.
Some of my favorite cards, based on their artwork, are pitch black warwolf, dark blade, and the noble knight series of cards.
I still love Noble Knights. I don't play them much anymore but I still have the deck made and I still enjoy using it on my more casual friends when I can. The recent support for it has helped
Pitch black Warwolf is definitely one of my favorites, what's that you use a trap on my card, *laughter intensifies*
I am 24. I am Christmas.
I love Dragonlink and im gonna play it till the very End. Always go along with the Dragon Veins.
Or just play weird Spellcaster decks that have lots of pricy cards wasted in the deck.
I've been playing Yu-gi-oh for 4-5 years and I still found this video valuable! Answering the question asked for years
Nice pfp.
The reason why I picked up D/D/D, a friend of mine was helping me build a deck with a bunch of card I had, and I saw lamia on the side and figure I should play the archetype
Determine your play style, the archetype's concept, potential, consistency and power. Personally, I take artwork into account, as well.

@@CGTradez I'd be maining that deck if it was real
Great video dude, I love it!! I've always hovered somewhere in between casual & competitive, because I enjoy competitive players & their environment, but I never choose decks depending on atmosphere. I've always chosen decks based on what I like playing & what speaks to me, I'm basically that guy that brings Exodia or whatever to locals knowing he's going to lose possibly every game. But I also tend to gain spectators because I play a lot of anime strategies. If you want friends, play anime decks & be an awesome dude all around. That's my advice anyway lmao.
Im a simple man,I see yugioh with enthusiasm, I click.
Cimoooooooo: "Instead of winning by smashing your opponent to zero...."
Me: wait, there is another way!?
mill, lock, card advantage ect
You two must be loads of fun at parties... 😅
Strangle them, punch them in the face, stab them, etc.
Seal of orichalcos but for real and also
Whoops theres no also
Gotta say, I appreciate that you chose a Goat list for your thumbnail. 👍
My buddy got me back into the game, it's taking a while for me to try and learn so this video does help me understand a little more.
Back when i use to play, that was six samurai. I loved that they benefitted from eachother and that some of them gain new effects when there was 2 others on the field. I also use to have a grave keepers deck because I thought it was silly fun, but that was 5 years ago. I still have the 2 decks from back then, but these days I just like keeping up with the tcg through looking at videos like yours, to see how the meta is these days. As far as playing tcg's go though, I play pokemon now, helps that I like collecting the cards. Also helps the boosters (and all products really) have code cards to redeem in the online app. So playing digitally while collecting physically. Kinda wish they would make a game like the old gbc pokemon card game or the old battle city yugioh game on the gba. Or the old MTG pc game back on DoS. The walk around on an adventure style game. And make a deck with a default the game gives you and then upgrade it with the packs you get ingame.
When you’ve been playing for years and you still watch these😂
I got salad, shaddoll, synchro, herald, and dino. From those my heart is for synchro because 5D is great and junk speeder is better than needlefiber. and my favorite is herald because it's so unexpectedly viable especially if we get some OCG cards.
That 3rd question is definitely pertinent in casual/local playing. A few years ago, a number of players at my locals were using the Dark Scorpion Burglar OTK, and it got kinda tedious to play against. To deal with this, I started teching Gentlemander (Lv 4 Reptile that can drop itself onto the field when your opponent attacks, and is the only monster they can attack, which thwarts the DSB strategy entirely).
This eventually evolved into a Reptile/Heraldic Beast Rank 4 spam deck, which was my favorite deck for months even after the DSB decks dropped away.
These vids are exactly what I was looking for. Trying to brush up on my rules as I get back into playing
I've been trying to upgrade the Invincible fortress structure deck as much as possible and after adding $200 to the deck.. it's still trash LOL
But I have been able to clutch a few wins and the look on my opponents face when he loses to flippy rocks is priceless
Fuck they gave the Simorgh structure deck support and retrains in Rising Rampage. WHERES OUR EXODD RETRAINS
I love this! I'd never thought of the idea of Combo and Stun being the extreme versions of Aggro and Control. Super solid content!
Another thing to consider for casual play when it comes to what decks other people are playing is matchups, especially if you play with the same group of people regularly. You want to make sure the decks you're playing with that group produce enjoyable matchups when playing against their decks, with gameplay that is not one-sided or uninteresting. For example, albeit a rather unorthodox one, my friend who plays extreme aggro decks like Cyber Dragon actually enjoys playing against more grindy stun-oriented decks like True Draco, Trickstar and Shaddoll as they provide a unique challenge for his decks to overcome.
I just got back into yugioh but combo decks appel to me so much. They look so much fun to learn and interact with.
Well with all the information in this time to build the perfect deck for me
KURIBOH FTK

Mood
I’ve played a bunch of decks since I’ve gotten back into this game and I definitely enjoy control or a mix of combo and control. In terms of my favorite decks for control: True Draco and Sky Striker. Combo being Orcust or Salamangreat (or rather a mix of the two). But there is something satisfying about playing a stun or control deck like Traptrix or Altergeist that makes me feel like I’m the one dictating the pace of the game and that my opponent has to find a way to stop me from snowballing my advantage.
How I found Madolches was basically seeing Magi and Pudding and that's it. Saw dessert waifus and knew it was for me. Made it even better once I realized how fun the deck is as well
Personally I love Combo decks (especially like World Chalice, Gouki and Fur Hire) because I feel these decks have multiple directions they can go into in order to have an out for something your opponent might be playing. I'm more of a casual player and theyre typically the cheapest
Combo i either cheapest or most expensive depending on what it needs.
I've been waiting for good Plant extradeck for long time, There are just snowflower and jasmine which can Do really good stuff. I Would say good Plant-Link Monster Would Do so much for the Plant-Player the only plant deck is "predaplant- engine with snowflower" other plantdecks like rosedragon or something like this are to Bad in all things u Must have when u Play a deck today and want win 1/5 games
I loved this. I always had trouble getting back into this game with all the deck types/archetypes out there and not knowing what I wanted to play. Is there anyway you would do a future video that lists out staple cards for these deck types? Like a top 10 list of the best stun cards would be cool.
Me, choosing a new deck: "Huh, these look pretty cool, and I like their synergy with their own gimmick."
Yu-Gi-Oh-community: *BEST DECK TOTALLY BROKEN WITH THIS ONE UNRELATED CARD THAT DRAWS YOU 40 ALSO UR MOM GAY*
Ban List: *Yeah buddy you can play the best card of your new deck only once, if any.*
*COUGH* TRICKSTAR *COUGH*
Whenever I select a deck to play, the first thing I do is set criteria for myself, based on what I find fun, then I select a deck that optimizes for that criteria. For myself, those criteria are
1. A deck that is not too combo focused, and not too stun focused
2. A deck that can go second and break boards/ bait out opponent's negate effects
3. Has versatility; does not do the same exact combo every single game
The decks that best fit this for me are Mekk-Knights, Shadoll, and Dino
Seems fair
So midrange, essentially.
Honestly, I love those criteria as a Dino player. A base strategy so flexible it has the tools to fight anything in anyway (Combo with Synchro/TK, Aggro with Pure Go 2nd, Control with Paleo+Survival’s End, etc.)
HEROs fit perfectly
Was feeling really discouraged about getting back into the game, this made me feel better
This is actually a perfect video to watch because i stopped playing on XYZs but i bought 2020 mega tins and might jump back in for casual fun with friends
I recently got back into the game and the first deck I picked up was Shaddolls. Theyre not to complicated and has come control stun elements which what i played alot before i stopped playing years ago. They're also splashable and can have other archtypes splashed with them, along with them being fairly cheap.
But the real reason is because my waifu, Winda, is a boss monster.
I'm very easily swayed.
How to choose a deck in 2020:
1: Can you summon Red-Eyes Dragoon?
2: Do you have an out to Red-Eyes Dragoon?
If you answered no to either of these, then choose a new deck
Disagree, mister likes his own comment

@@codynelson7575 lmao no
Time for cydra
Every example you gave for stun cards spoke to me. Good to know, thnx!
I remember when I started to get into Yugioh, I was watching the anime(I was 8 or 9 and I’m 15 now)but I didn’t know how to actually play but I would sometimes see people play and it was fun.Then when I was 11 I started to get some cards but I didn’t really play I just liked how the cards looked.Now I came back into Yugioh and started to play the mobile card game and now I’m confused af cause there is so many new cards and I can’t keep up but your videos really help me out and I might actually try to collect the cards again and play!!
The end of the video must have been cut of, cuz I think there should be : "Fifth and most important question guys : what's your budget?"
"Combo decks are an extreme version of aggro decks" man yugioh is such a weird card game. At least that is how I feel coming from lor
Bro im playing both of them and aggro decks are the otk deck in yugioh. Yugioh is in itself aggro and fast but thats the normal here
@@periklisperperis6868 I guess when games lasts so few turns, every deck is an aggro deck. And when there is no resource buildup, aggro is achieved through comboing summon effects
@@ceresgc the resource buildup is either made by draw engine to set up a bigger board or used by othrr engines which self recycle
aggro is a bit different from combo, you don't really need to combo during 5 minutes to do OTK, ancient warrior is quite agressive and is in just a sligh way combo, but nothing compared to adamancipator, infernoble ect
He said combo decks were an extreme version of aggro decks, not the other way around.
I like decks that have a focus on battling but have an aspect of control to them. Decks I play include Dinowrestlers, Salamangreat, Tindangle and Karakuri.
I’m building Raidraptors thanks for the advice!
Easy. Pick Pendulum because IT'S THE BEST DECK BABY!!!!! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

But what if I can't read?
BE QUIET TRIF
I picked it 1.5 years ago coming back from the game and i have a really good deck since then and in total maybe spent 200€. Only thing left is souls but that is Over my budget. Still enough to set up 20 negates tho 👊
PENDULUM BEST DECK!
Don’t know about you, but my favourite deck is a destiny board exodia aggro combo control stun deck that wins by decking out my opponent

Mesaka. R6 you can find it on my onlyfans for only $50
All jokes aside, how would you build a deck like that.....

@@Osindileyo Believe me, in the underground there are many strange mashups.
Mesaka. R6 I’ve just thrown one together, still want to see it?
For me it was a friend handing over an old Dragon Type deck that I built and rebuilt with a good blend of various archetypes that created a really solid dragon engine. My only missing piece was good effect removal. If I wanted a monster gone, I had to beat it in battle because I’m poor and I only have one Burst Stream of destruction.
Edit: I mean, I have Armed Dragon up to LV 7 but that doesn’t help against things like Lunalight
At first when I returned to the game I just picked up Dark Magician again then I scoured the game for decks that looked cool and had a strategy and play style I enjoy.
Ah yes I love oppressing people in a children’s card game

These are great questions I am a beginner and I like to understand more and like to to know more and I’m like to get started on building a deck to get started
Lore is nice. And I like flip, burn, and recently interupts via psychic
so to make friends i shouldn't play my mystic mine exodia deck. lmao
Not in my case, i like to play against mine decks with my control exodia volcanics. The problem is that often mine players ragequit when i make mine self destruct with obliterate or chain twister on field barrier to lock a new mine. Without forgetting people who declare exodia with prohibition... it just doesn't work.
Forgot when i make rank 4 with wobby ti remove the hand limit
How I choose a deck:
Liking it :D and being playable looking at you genex
Genex... playable...
Are you high?
Alibey Bal i meant the opposite in traditional they are (the Orcust combo)
Wait they can’t put 2 monsters on field 🙂
I have the feeling I have a very unique mindset when it comes to casual vs. competitive. I care a lot about winning and optimization but only for the specific deck I'm playing, not for me as a person. So I always try to optimize my deck as much as possible but I don't care how strong the archetype is compared to others. So usually I'm too strong for casual play but too weak for competitive play.
When Cimoooo talks about aggro decks and reducing opponents life to 0 as fast as possible, first deck that popped into my head was dino. Called it! But thanks Cimoooo for i have chosen dino to be my deck, all thanks to u

Since lockdown I've been wanting to prepare for getting competitive and would like to start making a few combo decks but I have no idea where to start
You could start with D/D/D, they are a pretty old combo deck.
@king zaxa you sicken me. Don't infect this youngling with cancer.

Pick a card, Any card..
Incredible Break Down Of Deck Choices & Gameplay Styles!!! I Feel Much More Secure On My Chosen Journey. I Just Wanna Defy All Odds & Create A Deck That Eternally Endures Both Short And Long Term & Can Execute All Levels Of Aggro, Combo, Control, & Stun Avenues. It Is Very Possible; And Being Able To Literally Maintain Control Of The Game Using Your Favorites Is Essential. Before I Get To Work On Any Other Deck, I Want My Main Deck (And All My Decks) To Be That Force With Which To Be Reckoned
Shaddolls are a fun deck that can try to stun with Winda, but with the Unlimit of Construct and the release of Wendi, ariel, and cross-sheep, it can be a fun combo deck too
The real question: How big is your bank account?
attacking hard with a combo deck. Solitaire and card effects like crazy in M1, then swing with a bunch of beaters in Battle. Can I get a more offensive Combo deck.
Cimo you are one of the purest person I have ever heard
I found Paleo frogs quite a while back and it just feels so good to pilot, but damn if I ain't to competitive to not just shove Dragoon in it because that works lol.
This whole comment section is either people hyping up their own decks or people, for some reason, trying to give their own advice for picking a deck
I have always played what ever deck I like. I enjoy learning new play styles my favorite deck is Blackwing I also enjoy Cyber Dragons, Elemental Heroes, Genex, generic Warriors, and generic Dragons.
Such a mature and educated view on the topic
Best click bait:
How to build a deck, well thats not for me to answer. *end of video*
Also I play melffy.
You legit missed a whole group of people. The competively Causal people like myself. I love competition but I'm not some meta deck loving person. I play what I want and I maximize it to its fullest capabilites so that I can beat the top decks. It's why I side deck and find out where the holes are.
Also you're okay with combo decks setting up 7 negates but you hate Stun decks? That's hypocrisy of the highest order lol
I just find them both depressing. Mid range or control are the best imo. They actually reward skill in the grind game etc.
The second part: yes, because stun is not a combo ecc... Is just activation of a stun card and that's it
because there's actual work involved with putting up 7 negates. Its much easier to just play Inspector Boarder or Mystic Mine and that's why people hate these cards
First: you are casual, don't say Competitively Casual you're just serious about being casual. Second: combos are mildly difficult, have multiple steps and are easier to stop. Stun is I summon Torrent or i activated Mine. Those are entirely different
@@adambe1126 even some combo decks are quite difficult, but yeah, control and midrange are more skillbased (except for floodgates)
Very informative, thx Alex!
I've been playing casually and at locals sometimes since the original starter decks were released. I currently have 16 decks built but I have the potential to make many more. Just because a deck isn't meta doesn't mean you can't have fun and win. A lot of structure decks are pretty good for casual play and it doesn't hurt to pick up 3 of your favorite and edit it with hand traps and counter play cards as you go. Knowledge will come with experience. Just my opinion for beginners.
How to choose a deck: Pick Salamangreat or Dinosaur. The end.
Ps: Pendulums suck
Thank you! Pend suck
you suck
Why?

My favorite way to pick a deck is to select something that is definitely not meta, but still make it formidable. My friends and I like to casually play with things that probably haven't seen play in years such as ghostricks, and sort of just have fun with out dated yugioh. Personally I like to build 1 of every kind of deck so I can switch it up depending on the day, whether it is my Fairy Nope deck, or my high destruction Dark Magician Deck.
The most fun deck I had was a Law of the normal/Amulet of Ambition deck. But now it doesn't work anymore because link monsters and xyz monsters don't have levels.
When going into this, I literally said "I want a damage deck with ultimate conductor tyranno and dinosaurs". Your first example was literally Aggro and it had Ultimate Conductor Tyranno. Well, I at least now know what deck I want.
GX was the first show I really watched when I understood what was going on, so I always use Neo Spacians.
I’m nailing down a good Shiranui build. Relies heavy on alghoul and ash blossom, but she fire zombie type so she makes sense.
They also kinda taught me syncro summons. And they work well from graveyard and banish pile which is where most peoples decks will send half your cards before you even draw.
Ojama is hilarious and fun.
Melffy is confusing I have only won one game with them.
So Shiranui. And skull servants are my mains. Also because they can share some cards from the structure decks
My current deck is Shaddoll-Invoked cuz the Shaddoll structure deck was the first thing I bought when I got back into YGO this year, and I will strive to make that thing competitive as best I can. I wasn't playing when they were meta, but damn are they a cool archetype with great card art and a lot of versatility. I also really like taking casual strategies and trying to find a way to make them competitive--Marincess is a good example.
Like you said though, the first question I ask anyone I'm trying to get into the game is whether they want to play control or aggro/combo, and then we build from there. I think that's the most important, cuz there's no point playing a strategy you don't enjoy just cuz the cards look cool or the deck is powerful; there's no fun in that.
Hey Cimo could you possibly link me your mic or tell me what it is? Interested in starting youtube/podcasting. Thanks for all the content!
Man Best Tips and Tricks thanks cimo
Gren maju garzett with gadora, dark crystal dragon, and te pot that allows you to banish 10 cards was an insane combo I omce made
I just build it around a card or cards i like. It wasn't competitive but I ran a Fire attribute backfire deck led by my Tyrant Dragon back in the day. Sprinkled with either Giant germ or nimble momonga to assist. Also had several 'Ordeal of the Traveler' it was a great removal like fairy box. Also having my opponent remove a high level attacker because he couldn't guess the 3rd card in my hand was such a crazy win.
Also as a side note, I always thought Joey in the anime should have been more trap focused then chance focused. Would have made for some more clever turnarounds relying on strategy rather then luck.
