$90 BUDGET!!! Competitive & Fun Decks for 2024!!! | Digimon Card Game & TCG

[@AVAULT]

Hey guys! Keep in mind that the prices are based from TCG Player at the time of making this video. Prices of cards may change depending on the market. I totally did not expect HeavyMetaldramon to shoot up when I worked on the video!

[@Noojtxeeg]

It'll probably drop back again if we're being real with ourselves. The deck has major issues and a new wave of support probably won't be enough to make it relevant competitively.

[@SheruMuko]

D-Brigade, Hunters, Blue Flare, Xros Heart, D-Reaper, Sakuyamon, Aquatic Pile, etc. I could go on and on here.

[@jakehollingworth4226]

Please more of this!! Love it

[@crushingon4791]

To throw in my two cents: Cendrilmon can be built pretty cheap. You just need two starter decks, 3 or 4 of the EX7 SR Cendrilmon and the EX7 shoemon pack. You can fill up the rookies and level 4s with the white Chessmon or the decoy rookie that inherits barrier and the level 4s with the Tobucatmon or inexpensive level 4s like BT8 Rapidmon, BT13 GeoGreymon, or even BT6 Bulkmon if you wanna be spicy. I personally prefer the EX7 Kyaromon because it gives Chaperomon and Shoeshoemon rather crazy attack power to security. Getting a single copy non foil versions of Cherubimon Ace, Valkyriemon Ace or Shinegreymon Burst Ace should be great as one offs in the deck, and the options can be filled with the memory boosts trainings from the ST, wonder stomp is a fantastic choice and the Noble Family Arts is a powerful card many sleep on.

[@numnut154]

Of note, the 2 copies of bt4 AncientGreymon is basically over half the deck's cost, so if you wanna build it more budget just ignore them and go for 2 bt12 Emperorgreymon instead, not as explosive but really effective nonetheless.

[@AwesomeRhombus]

@@numnut154 Thanks for this, they shot up since then and I subbed Emperorgreymon as you suggested!

[@numnut154]

​@@AwesomeRhombus no worries 😊

[@afletra]

love the old intro music! remind me the first time I got into Digimon Card Game! ❤

[@EWSnell]

Now that this video is out, prices of these cards will skyrocket, and be sought after as thousands watch this video and race to their LGS. It will be anarchy. Only the strong will survive

[@maroo172]

Thanks for the Video! Im a beginner and this helps me find new cool decks and mechanics! I really wanna build AncientGreymon now!

[@hazzaismyname]

Another comment had a really good idea. The bt4 ancient greymon is the most expensive. Bt12 emperor greymon is a cheaper option. Still decent too

[@jamarpressley5958]

I had built malo and consider it cheap hes a for fun deck I deconstructed it recently to take some of the cards out and sleeves to use for heavy metal tho but its was a fun deck

[@altinbitri3341]

A budget deck I would recommend would be puslemon I got mine for 50 bucks and I have been enjoying it quite well but since we don't have shivamon ace yet you won't be winning alot of games but it will be really fun

[@villon5821]

Got the eosmon deck (except promo morphomon) for 20€ and it's really fun

[@icespacer2012]

the main deck i use is wargreymon, and it does very well when i dont get super unlucky

[@CEOofExamon]

I would actually consider Zephagamon to be a decently budget friendly green deck that can also holds it's own against some of the meta.

[@TheDan14]

You can build pure dark masters (4 of every archetype card) for less than $10 and it’s super fun just throw in some level 6 aces and a couple white level 7s. It’s not bad either I’ve gotten second at locals with it

[@skullwolff9442]

considering your 1 day off of this post. i would say purple hybrid, bt18 gives your core, your top end and lower end can be as expensive as you want. double merva and double venus is the best choice, if you drop venusmon, the deck cost less than 90 bucks. and specual booster 2.0 is only a week away from release. go for grankuwaga ace to save cost on venusmon. yeah, specual booster 2.0 will have a triple hybrid deck meta. red/blue/purple. and if you want to invest for specual booster 2.5 in februari, go beelzemon. still very powerfull deck, and new support in 2.5. you only need 1 blast mode ace, 2, bound of love, 1 AI& MAKO, 1 beelzemon and 4 impmon from booster 2.5. it's a good investment to do right now. and if you want to go crazy, 4 st17 impmon, 2 ex6 beelzemon in purple hybrid. vellgramon will take care of your 20 cards in trash.

[@AVAULT]

Thanks for sharing! I definitely will keep that in mind for the next update video in early 2025 as well!

[@skullwolff9442]

@@AVAULT it's not that i got something against heavymetaldramon, i bought 54 cards just to play it. not knowing what the new support is going to be, when we get new support, and how it will preforme against that future meta. it is better to recomand a stronger deck to newer players. as current heavymetaldramon is a fun tier deck. and it is a fun deck, with allot of potentional. but it needs more support to do anything against meta decks. if it can do anything at all when new support drops that is. another good investment, would be fenrirlogamon. though it is more expensive. or leviamon, with protoform reprint in december, will bring down the cost. pick up 4 protoform, and the scramble cards, if anything from the december LM set.

[@michael_wn]

I would love to see the Eosmon deck profile*, currently just waiting to get more copies of the morphomon promo, not rushing it though, waiting for some fair prices

[@ruikarma]

Dorbickmon and Hunters deck still fun and competitive with a price under 40$

[@miguel0deltasq]

I want a video: under $30 budget decks. Why? cause i want cheap decks i can gift to my friends to slowly bring them into the dark side jajaja

[@AVAULT]

@@miguel0deltasq I definitely plan on making one some time down the road! Be sure to stay tuned!

[@SuperChucknorrisman]

it sounds crazy, but you can honestly just take any two to three of the same starter decks, there about $10ish a piece, take the good cards, and combine them to make them more consistent and playable.

[@miguel0deltasq]

@@SuperChucknorrisman yeah but 2 starters its usually already over 30 and giving all my friends 1 of the same 2 starters at the time... i dont thik that be a good idea, itll create way to little variety. Now getting old starters can be way more expensive and hard to achieve, especially in my country where you get your stuff on pre-order and its not common to have stuff avvailable all the time, especially starters. Now, advanced ST is already way over the 30box budget and 2 regular ST tends to be way weaker than cheaper decks like rosemon, mother control, etc. So... thats what im looking for: Variety of cheap decks for fun, yet stronger than most starters. 3 Starters always go over the 30 budget, so: NO.

[@SuperChucknorrisman]

@@miguel0deltasq My bad, I thought you lived in the states, were having a huge sale on them 10-12 USD

[@gachagamer4549]

My friend, let me preach to you about Darkknightmon...

[@a.block.of.tofu.]

Sad that a year ago, budget decks were more in the $40 range. Prices keep going up

[@railroadverdigo1665]

i did not pay 80 + for my blue hybrid and im running most of this. i payed roughly 60 for everything

[@TealVelvet]

damn, it's almost as if... prices of cards fluctuate based on time, availability and from person to person

[@sakulugh]

Crazy that DragonLink deck even from Yugioh can jump up to Digimon TCG :D :D Tlalocmon looks amazing I really like that Maya / Mesopotamia cards hope we see a bit more from that. I am new to the Digimon TCG and only saw 2 colour cards so Tlacocmon is a ThreeColour version??

[@MrNovascar]

Yeah, very few cards have 3 colors. Besides that one, only MagnamonX(bt16) and Imperialdramon Paladin(bt17) come to mind. Also Vortex Resonance is a 3color Option Card in ex7

[@sakulugh]

@@MrNovascar how do you summon is card than? I need to summon a threecolour lv6 ti summoon it right?

[@MrNovascar]

@@sakulugh I try to explain it. Lets take Tlalocmon at 10:10 as example: In the top left corner are two bubbles with numbers. The big one on top is the "play cost". You pay that much memory to just slam it on the field. No evolution or color required.(15 in this case) The second number below that is the "evolution cost". You only need ONE of the mentioned colors to digivolve from a digimon of the mentioned level. The color of the card you digivolve into doesn't matter. Its usually the same for thematic reasons, but doesn't have to. So Tlalocmon can digivolve from any Lv6 green, yellow or black. Then there is the "alternative requirement". This is the black line above the effect text. You can use that requirements and ignore any other regular criteria. As you can see at 10:20 all the cards have like "Digivolve: Lv3 w/ [NSp] in trait:1". That means Monochomon can digivolve from any NatureSpirit(NSp) that is Level 3 for 1 cost. Everything else doesn't matter like color. So despite that the deck doesn't have matching colors, you can evolve just as normally anyways. Back to Tlalocmon: his black line says "DNA-Digivolve" That means you can fuse 2 Lv6 Digimon on the field into this card. The orbs tell the color but again, you only need one if its seperated by a "/" . So you can make him out of any combination of: Green+Black, Yellow+Black, Green+Blue or Yellow+Blue

[@sakulugh]

@@MrNovascar mh okay thank you yeah playing normal not really an option with 15 :D but with the digivolve requriement i thought it needs a 3colour digimon to digivole because doenst ne got 2 seperate circle a blue circle for blue digitation and a red circle under it for the red evolution or is it just in one digi cost circle?

[@MrNovascar]

@@sakulugh older cards had different circle for different colors, but they changed the layout around a year ago in BT14. Now its one circle and the segments of the border are colored. But its the same thing. You only need 1 color. The change was likely made for color blind people, since the color was nowhere stated besides the background.

[@Tillallare1]

I can safely say as a Gallant player, it cost me more than $90 for the deck hehe (Totally worth it though!).

[@winslyargentum508]

Gallant and omni player are getting curse from bandai by making their deck expensive

[@Tillallare1]

@@winslyargentum508 it’s okay, my wallet will be fine 😭

[@winslyargentum508]

@@Tillallare1 incoming another SEC for gallant tho

[@MDogman5]

Tyrant is cheap Bout 40 bucks for everything most expensive card is bt15 tentomon which you can replace with bt10 kokuwamon

[@AVAULT]

I thought about that as well. But the Promo MegaKabuterimon and Kuwagamon make it super pricey. I guess I couldo made a budget version without those cards.

[@scotty_yata]

The "t" is silent in debuted, so you know

[@PaladinfffLeeroy]

Maaaaan, why does Bamco Nandai have to screw us over with stupidly strong promos? :( I really want to play Eosmon but the promo is holding me back.

[@wolfhorn9418]

Yeah, as someone who plays eos, it's unfortunately a must have. The inherit is too good that you just can't run without it.

[@scoop92]

I’m not gonna lie I hate that. It’s annoying that some cards are just overly expensive especially for some of the non- meta decks. Bandai trying to be like yugioh prices slightly

[@PaladinfffLeeroy]

@@scoop92 I am used to that kinda treatment because of Konami but I don't want to play another cardgame that can cost that much. I already have Yugioh and MTG... It's why I set myself a barrier of about €50 per deck. I have Legend-Arms and Sakuyamon atm. I bought an old deck core of Sakuyamon from a friend for about 35. It lacked the promo Plug-in, but luckily that was only €5 and not... *Looks at Morphomon*... €30 and a 4-off.
