This is too quick of a movement towards defederation. Except in the most extreme of circumstances, it should be up to individual users whether they want to engage with other communities, and users can always block communities they find objectionable. It is not in the best interest of users to treat them as being incapable of making their own reasoned decisions about this kind of thing.

Fortunately, thanks to the wonders of the fediverse, I can just make a new account on a different instance and start engaging with Lemmy that way. Anyone have any recommendations on alternatives to lemmy.world?

Runick Muskets is a deck that has been kicking around for a while - here's my take on it. Morganite is absolutely crazy in this deck. The extra draws are relevant, hand traps aren't missed too much because you have the Musket cards/Runick Fountain, and the Muskets let you get value off the Morganite right away (which is otherwise one of the card's biggest weaknesses).

A few notes:

  • Muckraker goes crazy in this list. You generate so much value that the pitch for cost to resummon a Musket feels like nothing. The protection is useful too.
  • A lot of lists don't run Magical Musket Wild, but I was always happy to have him, especially in the grindier matchups. Recycling a Max or three of your interrupts can win some games on the spot.
  • Dweller comes up surprisingly often, as does Chaos Angel.

Thanks for the kind words! It hasn't been much work at all - I'm having lots of fun with it. And I've been really pleased with the level of engagement. The community is basically just a place for me to post yugioh stuff I think is cool, and occasionally people will stop by to check it out or share something that they think is cool.

I'll try to keep on top of YCS results and I've got a few ideas for fun decklists.

 

Hi everyone! Been having lots of fun getting this space up and running, and I'm glad to see people stopping by.

I figured this was a good time to check in with you all and see how I can improve your experience. Is there any kind of content you'd like to see more of? Anything else I can do to make this community better? Feel free to drop a comment or shoot me a message!

It's nothing special, but I love my Immortal Phoenix Gearfried reprint that I got out of Amazing Defenders. The card is only worth one cent, but fire warrior jank is my favorite deck on MD/simulators, and I'm so happy to own my favorite card in paper.

Awesome. Thanks!

Cute pic! Didn't know we had an MD community

Rescue-Ace (self.yugioh)

Does anyone have a good decklist and/or guide for R-Ace post DUNE? I want to try and brew some jank with them, but I need to know how the deck works normally first.

Deck I've been tinkering with on Omega lately. Fire warrior is like my favorite theme of monster, so my eyes turned into little dollar signs when I saw that Riseheart is a fire warrior.

This is a classic example of making a good deck (Adventure Kashtira) worse by playing junk in it. But a little thing like "common sense" or "good deckbuilding" is not enough to keep me from making Isolde, using her effect to get out Renaud, making Sprind, and dumping Nimble Angler.

introducing Zeus Two (ygorganization.com)
submitted 1 year ago by amcjv12 to c/yugioh
 

A really fascinating and facially powerful card. There are very few decks in the format right now that do not want to be making 2 monsters from the ED. Now if you go second, you have something to go into if your starter gets impermed or you brick. It also turns off the opponent's zeus or baronne, which is very funny.

Hard to tell how good this card is, but I know this: it won't stop Kash from locking your pend zones!

Seriously is there any way for pend to be viable while Kash is a thing?

I tend to agree with the idea that MD has sort of cut itself off at the knees by pursuing its weird unique banlist and cardpool. If MD had committed to being "the OCG simulator," then the Bo1 format would be less offputting, Maxx C's continued presence would be less of a war crime, and TCG players would have a way to get hyped about cards coming down the pipeline that they'll eventually be able to play in paper

I think MD's generous monetization model and its delayed card releases reflect a perspective of fear on the part of Konami that MD, if given all the current cards, would make it so nobody played or bought paper anymore. I think that's just not true. There are several very good free online simulators that let people play every yugioh card entirely for free, and paper continues to thrive.

Tl;dr give MD access to all OCG cards in real time. Also where tf is my Edison event

Zero percent chance this isn't a cover to launch something more predatory for monetization reasons.

 

I didn't realize that the MD WCS had its own special format. The idea of teams and shared cards seems super interesting - can't wait to tune in.

AGOV introduces TG support (ygorganization.com)

AGOV can't possibly get more based! (clueless)

These all look amazing. Yusei vs. Bruno is one of my all time favorite duels, and I'm stoked to see support for this archetype.

Also the lvl 1 tuner is a fire so you can search it with the new Snake Eye monster that adds a lvl 1 fire to hand. No idea why you'd want to do that, but the option is there!

[–] amcjv12 6 points 1 year ago

I don't have fun at all - when I work out just to "work out," anyway. Then I have to think about it sort of like physical medicine. I do it cause it's good for me.

But if I can find a way to get the heart pumping that's primarily about doing an activity, with fitness just being secondary, I have a lot more fun. I recently got into boxing for fitness because kneee trouble was making high-impact cardio painful. Love it. Training becomes something to look forward to because boxing is fun rather than metaphorical castor oil that I swallow down because I need to.

The amount of generic pyro support in AGOV slaps. I may buy a couple boxes just because I think the set has cool stuff and not for resale

[–] amcjv12 3 points 1 year ago

Are these the ones with staples in them? I'd guess maybe something meta-ish that still needs more product to be totally competitive. Maybe like Tri-Brigade and Icejade?

This looks crazy - send ANY CARD from hand to reborn a fire monster. Then after you go through your combo, add your stuff back to deck and draw a card. The first effect isn't even OPT. AGOV continues to ball out so hard

I prefer EDOPro to Omega, but I play master duel way more than TCG.
