Holy shit... Black lotus is purrely engine...

Ancestral Recall is awful. Requiring your opponent to draw cards first is just awful in Yu-Gi-Oh. Especially since the conditions cannot be met during normal matches.

For Black Lotus there is a problem. Tokens cannot be used as material for an XYZ summon. That’s a game rule.

You definitely did not have to go through the effort to try and balance these cards, it’s appreciated though

Well the black lotus in ygo suffers a lot of restrictions.

if we're being lore accurate Blac Lotus would just be a continuous spell which can send itself to the grave to draw 3 cards. Since there's no mana system, cards are the resources of yugioh, and thus black lotus would give you free resources same as it does in magic. Yes it would probably be banned immediatly, but that's kind of on brand for what is MTGs most rare and powerful card that's banned forever.

Shouldn't the Ultimate Nightmare be a legendary demon dragon horror token instead. That would prevent Terror Incarnate from popping up another version of itself by specifying a legendary demon dragon horror which is the Ultimate Nightmare. It also kinda goes with the evolution of Yubel starting out as a demon then becoming a demon dragon and ending up as a demon dragon horror. Also what about the Yubel fusion monster?

I figured that field spells would become enchantment lands and artifact lands because that kinda sounds like what a field spell is. They are more often than not physical locations.

what is absolutely crazy about the black lotus is that a its a one card 3 tokens that are any type u want and b it allows you to cheat out any monster from your deck that can still activate their effects in grave AKA BETTER HALQ (tho not being able to use the monsters as links could be a bit troublesome tbh). time walk and encestral recall are both unusable garbage tbh (i mean it could be a maxx c/mulcharmy counter but even then thats kinda ass). and time twister is pretty broken provided you can activate shifter or play a pendulum deck, the requirement of no cards in grave is pretty much irrelevant (you could also play this in a trap deck where you only set floodgates and then just refill your hand.)

I can't wait for the ABCs and their combinations to be done as this would make the first white construct deck as constructs are usually a blue or colorless thing. Though a couple of cards do have to lightly tap into blue and black to use their effects. Black is weird since these cards don't really align with any of the asthetics or traits of black. Wouldn't Union Hanger be a land as that is essentially what field spells are? What about Union Carrier as well since it is a link monster? You are probably going to have to use the meld, transform, and equipment mechanics a lot for this archetype.

If i remember correctly, Continuous Spells cannot have Quick Effects on them, only trigger effects. Why not make Black Lotus a Continuous Trap that can be used from the hand with some requirements (Like the opponent controlling more cards than you)? I think that would solve a lot of issues. Otherwise, I really like how it turned out!

So infernitys is a vengeful Grixas deck. Shame that they don't have more blue in them given their use of constructs.

You shouldn't have added stuff for balancing, the entire point of the power nine is that they are unbalanced to a cosmical point

You worded Yubel as a Transforming DFC, but you used the frame of a Modal DFC.

dnt think it really makes sense for black lotus to be a continuous spell outside of flavor reason given it technically does nothing but exist to remove itself from the field like that, being a continuous spell also means its unable to function at spell speed 2 too outside of possibly having its effect be categorized as trigger effect but this then means it must have a trigger condition too rather then something you can manually do on your turn and that it would fail to resolve on principal since as a continuous spell it requires the card to remain faceup on field at resolution to even be able to resolve at all the grave’s saying “quick effect” alos shouldnt be there too since its exclusively used for monster to grant their effects a fast effect timing which is only natural to quick play spells and all traps by nature and as other have mentioned it will miss timing every time since going to grave isnt the last thing to happen but not that this would even function as a balance in the first place since the player can simply make sure to always only use it as chain link 1 so it wouldnt miss timing makes more sense for it to be probably a normal/quickplay spell or a normal/counter trap instead and just have the second effect start with “and if you do: you can banish this card then apply one of these effects” so that the banish is part of the effect on resolution while its still resolving on field and not a cost giving the opponent a way to prevent the 2nd effect by destroying it before it can banish itself from the field

You can give mox jet the ability to be counted as 2 monsters for an xyz summon, like how the new shark and heraldic monsters do. And pearl could have a destrudo-esque effect to level manupilate. Reduce a monster's level(maybe your opp's even?) by an amount of your choice, summon pearl as a tuner.

We do sorta have time twister and ancestral recall. That are fiber jar and graceful charity.

I dont think making black lotus able to miss timing changes much, since its going to be sent to the gy by its own cost. I am not that polished with the minute details, but it may be unactivatable if you tribute and then summon the tokens, since the tokens being summoned is the last thing to happen. But Im not sure.

From my understanding, the power nine are the most powerful cards in early magic. They’ve been translated into modern Yugioh. I personally don’t think many of these would see play as they are. That’s absolutely fine. It’s a neat idea.

Original Gatewatch planeswalkers conversation would be interesting to see

You cant use tokens for xyz summons

if we had mox emerald in yugioh , rituals would actually be viable. you could turn one 2 mox emeralds into any ritual monster, as mox emerald uses monsters to ritual summon it can use the other mox emerald to ritual summon

So unfortunately I didn't catch this earlier and I'm not super confident on my knowledge with missing timing but black lotus might cause itself to miss timing because the last thing that happens is the tokens being summoned All in all pretty good errata of your previous video on this the difference is incredible

I Like how Black Lotus, Time walk and the Moxes turned out. Time walk especially seems fun to try to make work in a deck. Great video as always

What a year it's crazy how many cards you've gone through I'm excited to what comes next

This is really cool! I will note though, the way you narrate does sound pretty unnatural, I’d just stick with one intonation the whole way through, or just not keep rising and falling throughout the sentence. Still, really cool video and I’d love to see what you do next!

you can have 2 field spells, they dont destroy each other anymore

Hot. Keep it up🗣️🔥

You should convert the Signer Dragons into Magic cards.

Anarchronos has to either banish face-up or only banish face-up monsters. Banishing face-down monsters face-down temporarily is way too ripe for cheating.

Should have flying not reach, you can see the wings on all the cards

I don't play mtg, would this card be good in today mtg's meta?

I'm not sure how it works in Magic, but the fact you are preventing all damage done to Yubel, could mean it only ever deals 0 damage back to that creature's controller. Instead it could maybe be "If Yubel would be dealt combat damage by an opponent's attack or blocking creature, deal that much damage to that creature's controller instead". This also puts in the combat damage protection by default, as combat damage is never dealt to it. Should also have Flying, Haste and Vigilance.

Convert Pendulums! Are they MDFCs with the back face being an enchantment subtype? Is the Scale indicated in the upper-left? What does the Scale flavorfully mean? Is it a supertype? I must know!

Make Stardust cards next (I dont think you did )

Should probably increase it's toughness to 10. In YGO defense is arbitrary compared to how toughness in MTG works. It just seems unlike Yubel to die to getting hit by a -1/-1 effect or another for of ping

I like the episode but hate your voice.
