[@Zobi_YT]

A couple mistakes I realised. You cannot use junk puppet to revive a gimmick puppet xyz and slap a spider on it because pain gainer requires the xyz monster to have 2 materials present before doing so. This was most likely a balancing option do to the fact that you can board wipe with Ravenous's atk and potentially board wipe a second time with Paingainer's defense on the same turn to clear out any floaters if the restriction wasn't present. Also Ranked up monsters don't free up the extra deck zone infact they do the opposite, if you have a utopia and you want to slap lightning on him and he's in the main monster zone Lightning must be summoned in a linked/extra deck zone moving the utopia material under him and same goes for the spiders and rank-up magic variants. Man link formats just detering me, how am I going to play trains now just sit on Dora until he dies while my other rank 10 plays lay dead in my hand. Its not like links even slowed down the game the fuckers are blue because they are sanic speed and can even clog your opponents extra deck zone through extra linking with great protection under a monster who can bounce at most 4 cards during either players turn. Save me Rank10 yugioh teach me how make trains survive link format.

[@rank10ygo]

Oh snap I knew it I made some mistake I overlooked with the spiders, thanks for pointing that out

[@Kuribohdudalala]

Zobi wait, when was that ruling about RUM announced?!

[@Zobi_YT]

beyondtheduel.com/master-rule-updates-special-summoning-extra-deck-monsters/ It's not an official ruling yet it is just questions answered from Konami’s ruling help desk. But it is pretty sad though and I'm going to miss playing Tzolkin. I honestly think only proper extra deck summons should be limited to the extra/link zone but eh Konami is Konami.

[@Kuribohdudalala]

Zobi the Tzolkin thing was confirmed, but I don't see why that applies to RUMs

[@Zobi_YT]

Did you read further down the link I posted? If not here is the bit to save you the trouble. (Q. If my Extra Monster Zone is empty and there are no Link Markers (pointing to Zones) on my field, and I have a Number 39: Utopia on my Main Monster Zone. If I were to overlay Number S39: Utopia the Lightning over it, must I summon it to my Extra Monster Zone? A. In this scenario, your Number S39: Utopia the Lightning must be Xyz summoned to your Extra Monster Zone. Additional note: When ranking up your Xyz monsters, they must go to an Extra Monster Zone / Linked Main Monster Zone regardless of which zone the original Xyz monster was on.) It does make a bit of sense because rank ups technically summon a new monster to the board and just use the xyz under it as material.

In the anime, the two leos were significantly more efficient.

Zexal had a weird fascination with over-balancing the number cards even though they weren't that broken in the anime.

It´s funny, how they nerfed both Leo´s so much, that they became worthless :/ The Anime Leo just needed to detach all Xyz Materials, you could still attack and no limitation on Spell/Trapp Cards and Chaos Leo was one of the most absurd Burn Cards, since it was unaffected by other Monster Effects and could burn the opponent for 4000!! per detach, also you would win, if he has no materials. I like Gimmick Puppet´s for theis design and they could OTK, if the planet´s alligned right, but most of the time, you would pass your turn, since this Deck can brick - hard.

Even Kite's partners kept their original names (Droit and Gauche) in the first half of the anime but were changed to Dextra and Nixtro in Zexal 2.

As a long time Gimmick Puppet player who's also aware of IV's deck list (or for you dubbers, Quattro), I've come to the conclusion that the name "Gimmick Puppet" doesn't refer to the cards individually, but the combos that can be made with cards featured in IV's deck. One of the combos I found accessible after reading his deck list would be Overlay Dark Reincarnation and Gimmick Vengeance. I'm not saying these are good combos.

[@petercross1879]

What konami should have done to slow the game, rather fhan links: you can only special summon frome each location (hand, deck, graveyard, and extra deck) once per turn, unless an effect says otherwise. Also, more draw power, but only be able to activate one search out 2 cards per turn (one from the deck, one from the graveyard) unless a card effect says otherwise.

Honestly Rata, your under rating gear changer. It is a major "cog" (excuse my pun) in many gimmick puppet deck.

Anybody who has played gimmick puppets would probably agree with me.

[@sablonanime650]

I disagree, the card can’t be machine duped and starts as a level 1 that’s basically useless if you don’t have another puppet on board. your best bet is playing one for one, which feels like a waste. Now the one I think is underrated is des Troy, the reason being a little card called desperado barrel dragon, it’s a strong level 8 with removal and draw power and all it requires is the destruction of a dark machine. which des Troy does for free.

Also, since you mentioned super-cheesy combos with C88: -Summon 88. -Get 88 killed somehow. -Revive it with something other than Xyz Reborn so that it has 0 Material. -Swing for 3200. -RUM Quick Chaos for C88. -Swing for 3500. -MP2, detach its lone Material to burn for 1000. -Either they died of battle damage, burn damage, or are in C88's Victory Condition zone.

Sure links are beyond intrusive to the game and a few decks are officially extinct with the extra deck ruling but most decks can add link monsters or focus less on the extra deck. Either way the anime has its work cut out for it after links were leaked. I still don't fully understand links.

You could always Junk Puppet Leo then Rank up into Disaster Leo To burn for 1000 and end with no materials... All we need to figure out is a way to deal 5000 more damage

[@faisalashour8866]

Gimmicks Puppets are in Duel links

[@eclipse_4066]

I wonder If Yubel will ever get any support cards

[@GatorRay]

I can see a Fusion retrain of Neos Wiseman coming out in the future. But that's about it.

[@Spywaredev]

@@GatorRay this comment aged well

[@GatorRay]

@@Spywaredev MAN you can not BELIEVE how happy I was when I found out that Neos Kleuger was a thing.

[@gtdfg4594]

Fun looking back on this when Yubel's meta. I wonder what can we say that won't become true about this game in 7 years. Dark Scorpions will receive really good support? Lol

[@moesirwan4307]

everytime i say "hey did ratta forget about us ?" he somehow uploads a new video... weird huh ?

[@allovertheworld5048]

Hope Kaiser93 hey look it's an anime noob

[@thorscape3879]

The year is 2023. People are using Gimmick Puppet Nightmare with Branded Banishment to floodgate their opponents for a turn. Most useful Gimmick Puppet of all time.

[@Steggoleaf]

Are Earthbound Immortals Considered an Arctype ?

[@TheMaz878]

RANK10, will you ever re-evaluate the archetypes from Legacy of the Worthless that have gotten new support added to them?

[@blerg3011]

you should do gladiator beasts next, those guys were awesome.

[@WildMike48]

For some reason, I fricking LOVE Gimmick Puppets. Goes really well into GE Prime Photon Dragon. Hope they get more support in the future!

[@chaisab7]

Well I used to play gimmick puppets (last time... Today... Confidence?). All I have to say is, I am not running any lvl 4 except the egg (because they slow the game and beicks) and ofc I don't run any ranks 4 xyz. I am able to produce like 2 xyz in one turn without big problems... Also Kaiju engine works great. Nobody care but thx for attention xD

[@brandonmedina9527]

chaisab7 no problem

[@RainbowSpark2411]

can you give recipe? I have the gimmick base, I played it for sometime but...

[@vujadinradovic9998]

Try Beating Blue Eyes Without losing LP and thats the second duel i used Gimmick Pupets

[@garchompdude]

This video has aged horribly and you can’t even blame Rata for it. Who would’ve expected that almost a decade later the deck would get a wave of support that would make it an insanely consistent FTK deck that can do so in MULTIPLE ways

[@BurningAzure]

6:23, HowToBasic would be proud.

[@BurdenofTheMighty]

And yet again, rata memes support into existence

[@dbzloverxl]

You missed the chance to say Gimmick Puppet Nightmare is a real "Nightmare" to get out! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA- okay I'll leave...

[@ShanaReviews]

if leo had maintained his anime Numbers effect of "cannot be destroyed by battle, except with a Number monster than i would argue Leo is somewhat decent since he has abuilt in protection, but since Konami thought Number Cards would be OP as F if they kept that effect, i agree, leo is bad

[@TheWrongDMs]

*Laughs in S39*

[@TheNoMoreHero672]

There are way better ways to play this archetype that you just can't see at a first glance. Calling humpty dumpty a staple is probably the biggest red flag you could have in that regard. Humpty dumpty is one of the shittiest cards in the archtype and any halfway decent Gimmick Puppet player (All 4 of them) knows it's garbage. Sure, gimmick puppets are mediocre now, but they're definitely not bad enough to the point where summoning your shit out of the hand with a shitty 0 atk level 4 that you can almost never use rather than a trade-in or an allure is going to be more preferable. You want inferno reckless for rank 8 plays, gearspring spirits, or swordsman of revealing light, and use your rank ups for better cards like neo tachyon or ultimatrainer, whos seriously just obelisk with 200 less ATK and a better effect.

[@jollyjojo1137]

I know he was playing foolish burial of good to send the rank up magic and not simply play other rank ups and upstate goblin and one day of peace

[@vujadinradovic9998]

You can play also dark world dealings it helps with bricky hands and recycling is good with gimmick Puppets

[@RocketGruntJesus]

What do you think about running machina fortress or cannon and also number 77 the seven sins to attack after you summon dark strings? I've been trying them out

[@vujadinradovic9998]

Dont run Machinas at all as someone who played gimmick puppets all year and playing all builds a pure gimmick puppet deck will help you more than any machina cards and run 2 77 the seven sins and 2 84 pain grinder.

[@SerDrayden]

Johhny Lol Eh. I find Machina Cannon to be really good

[@AlluMan96]

One of those archetypes that has very high potential for easy summons. Being Machine-type monsters of considerably low stats and focus on special summons, they are very compatible with deck searching in the form of Inferno Reckless summon, but more importantly Machine Duplication. Both are solid choices from my experience, but worth only 2 copies each. Inferno comes with the risk of helping your opponent set up a wall or counter-measure and Machine Duplication is solid, but at it's best as an early-game grab, because drawing into any number of Dreary Dolls or Magnet Puppets means less of them to summon from the deck.

[@ragnaricstudios5888]

FTK ALERT!!!!

[@crystal6675]

Came back to this after managing to make the Gimmick Puppet FTK

[@willsweeting1676]

"The One Who's Shape was Snathced" and Rata are my OTP

[@magolor3219]

sorry to move rata's comment out of the way, but I love how when he gets to Disaster Leo, he mentions the burn and says "it is outclassed by *DA BOI* " and flings Gustav Max across the screen... I laughed a lot at that.

[@dreadknight2439]

I'm pretty sure Shapesnatch had enough of Rata at the end and decided to say that just to piss him off.

[@micro3090]

I wish disaster leo kept the anime effect of INFLICTING 4000 DAMAGE

[@DarkCT]

you know, i just looked at the actual international artwork for "Dreary doll". i don't know what pisses me off more from international releases, the names or the art modification. replaced the coffin for a generic box (with a frikkin bow on it), AND removed the stains. they sent her to the cleaners so heavily.

[@anayos6726]

And they changed her name from "Necro Doll" to Dreary Doll. Doesn't make any sense.

[@Schrix3]

To think, one day he will be begging Rata to talk about link summons.

[@williambaxter941]

(Relatively new player opinion incoming) Been experimenting with Gimmicks for some time, and I have some some-up points. 1. I think I used Nightmare effectively once or twice to reload my Xyz's (undo effects set on them and give them new Xyz materials). 2. This deck would be useless without Dreary doll. 3. When you are about to Xyz summon, 90% of the time it's best to go with Giant Grinder. 4. Giant Hunter is god. (But beware summon traps!) 5. When your opponent is about to wipe you out with 3-4 monsters, and you happen to have a Rank-up in hand. only then should you use Puppet of Stings... just to then summon Dark Stings... 6. Leo (and CLeo) have been mostly pointless in my time. 7. Scissors will die... ALWAYS! (how I usually get Twilight joker working) 8. Gimmicks pair well with Machina Cannon, and Machina Fortress. If you are concerned about the idea that your monsters are your friends, and that they feel fear. Then prepare to become a fucking Sadist, because these things were born to be scrapped into the GY, over... and over... and over again..

[@ShuraEssays]

What about possibly doing Heraldic Beasts? They aren't that bad, but they are fairly unique, and the even have a miracle fusion for xyz and an archetypal monster reborn, as well as a rank up monster who is a walking mirror force to detter your opponent's attacks. Not that bad, not amazing, but interesting.
