[@dancostello4872]

Josh is nowhere near based enough tbh.

[@bass-dc9175]

A few one-offs to consider: Magical Dog. It bounces an enemy permanent spell/trap/fieldspell and special summons itself from the hand or GY. It is an earth machine, level 1, tuner and has 500 atk, so it is a box target. Gizmek. Earth machine, lvl3 and can be used in the GY to special a monster with equal atk and def from the GY. (Like Dark Golem and Tanker) A good urgent scedule target and nice discard fodder. Infinitrack Anchor Drill. 500 def so it is a box target. Special summon on summon, which can chain into tanker, commander or Dark Golem. Iron Wolf. You can easily make this alongside a Duel-Summoned Ultimate. Giving you a 4400 tripple direct attacker. Gets around most walls, except for Yubel. ::: Tech cards for going first: Machina Citadel. Urgent scedule target, gives good interaction in the enemy turn. Regulus + Sargas, since you can hard-make Sargas you do not need marymaker. NR 90, which can give you Nib-Protection.

[@sauvereaper6981]

as someone who's played AG since S1 of MD, this was a treat and just a great Video in general. this deck is Simple, fun, and has many cool tech options for it's strat. if want to try AG, please just keep 2 Things in mind. 1. AG chaos Giant is a good card BUT DON'T JUST TURBO IT OUT, it's only immune Monster effect's during BP only and unaffected by your Spells & Traps too. so it's more fragile than it looks. it's also a Dark monster, so it's bystiel food if it hits the GY 2. Don't sleep on AG Megaton Golem. using 3 AG Golems as Material let's attack 3 times in BP, (this effect is built into Megaton golem) it can float into Ultimate AG Golem. ( Megaton has to be a fusion summoned monster and won't float if returned to ED) you can make armoured train iron wolf, use it's effect on Megaton and attack 3 times Directly for game.

[@theteemotaunt6538]

Do you have more tips on getting AG Megaton Golem out with 3x attacks? AG Dark Golem only counts as AG Golem if it is on the field or in the GY. However, AG Fusion does not fuse from the GY, so you need to have 2 AG Dark Golem on the field for it to work. That's not an easy condition to meet in the face of disruptions. Then, you also need 2 Lvl4 Machines for Ironwolf Xyz to be able to 3x attack directly.

[@sauvereaper6981]

@@theteemotaunt6538 mostly you will have to try Baiting out or play into interruption for that strat to work, (it's more of a cheese strat) for the most part getting a Golem on field isn't the hard part. it's usually resolving tankers effect that fails. that being said, if it fails but you still have a LV4 you can normal Summon. go for it. finally if iron wolf is negated but not destroyed, AG Ballista only needs 2 Machine mosnters for link Material and Geartown summons from hand, deck or Grave. again direct attack Megaton is cheese. mostly meant for taking a game by ignoring the board when you can't OTK otherwise.

[@monsterousninja50]

⁠@@theteemotaunt6538the only way I could see is if you turbo out 2 Dark Golem on field and then MAYBE use AG fusion to send the original AGG as a garnet card.

[@bass-dc9175]

My additions: Megaton is kinda redundant if you go for a commander-duel fusion line. Ultimate will also be a tripple attacker then. Tho the Iron Wolf suggestion is one I would also use. It is a good wall tho, to build if you need to go first and have to go the Duel-Fusion line (Since howitzer does not mention golem) Chaos is even worse than you'd think. Because Duel protects your AG monsters from monster effects ... the problem is: Chaotic is immune against all spells and traps. Including your own. Only on-summon lingering effects like powerbond work with it. Card suggestions (One-Offs): 1. Magical dog. Bounces backrow, revives itself from the GY, is a lvl 1 tuner, good urgent scedule target, box target aswell. 2. Anchor Drill. Chains into commander, tanker or Dark Golem. Good ballista / Iron Wolf fodder. Box target. 3. Gizmek Taniguku. Good Urgent Scedule target. Can revive Tanker or Dark Golem. Good discard fodder too for DG. Use for each: Magical dog: if your opponent has a floodgate, you can use this to clear the way while in hand. Wyvern search for box, box search dog, dog special and bounce backrow, wyvern and dog into ballista to continue. Anchor Drill. Any search with an open normal summon: Box into Drill search. Drill summon, special tanker, summon Dark golem or commander. Continue based on enemy board. Gizmek Taniguku. Scedule, summon Taniguku and Dark Golem. Do not activate Dark golem. Go into ballista, search. Use Taniguku in GY, special Dark Golem. Activate for search. (One card Ballista and Dark Golem on board, without Normal Summon and a +1 in hand advantage)

[@sauvereaper6981]

@@bass-dc9175 Bud is COOKING here I like Megaton because it gains the 3X attack Without needing AG Duel. but you know your sh1t. thanks for the Card Suggestions too.

[@TrisagionCarter]

Ngl, I'm a recent fan but find that I enjoy Jesse's laid-back but methodical explanations and gameplay way more than other overly hype Yu-Gi-Oh KZbinrs. This one in particular was really fun for me as a guy who only really knew Duel Monsters for a while before trying to get back into it. Exactly like the memes, I was beyond lost and had never watched GX, but Ancient Gears looked mean, and I figured they'd be one of the better archetypes. Lo and behold, here they come, back to show me I shouldn't have changed up 🤣 Also, if you're still taling requests, I'd love to see an episode based around Galaxy Eyes. Since hitting Master Duel as my first real competitive scene for Yu-Gi-Oh, they've been my trusty companion up to Diamond 3 but no further. I'd love to see what a YCS league player could do with them, or even any quick advice. Stay awesome duelist!

[@JMW10o0o]

Wait so you don't like titles and thumbnails about THIS UNBELIEVABLE UNSTOPPABLE ULTIMATE BOSS MONSTER!!!!!! I remember guys making videos about Chaos Angel and Kurikara Divincarnate and thinking.... dont these just lose to Dark hole?

This deck actually looks really fun to play and the tools available to the deck shown here really feel like they genuinely belong here and are not tacked on just because they are good general cards. great duels bro

[@creepygamercom]

Gizmek Tanigkuku is missing for Urgent Schedule. It revives Dark Golem from the grave.

[@altoid3453]

Urgent schedule into tanigkuku and dark golem. Link off for balista which will search, then tanigkuku to revive dark golem for +2 and discard

[@michaelglynn7010]

Would that not work considering Urgent Schedule negates what it summons?

[@creepygamercom]

@@michaelglynn7010 Read the cards bro. You link both negated monsters off into ballista. Taniguku GY effect to banish itself, target dark golem to revive and resolve dark golem unnegated.

[@bass-dc9175]

I know it's not an archetype, but a deck centered around classic weak normal monsters would be awesome. Things like Celtic Guardian, Silver Fang, Giant Soldier of Stone that you could find in almost every schoolyard deck.

Actually one of the decks that I do believe has quite a bit of potential for play. The deck is weirdly solid when having all the pieces out in front of you. AG has 1 card combos, solid extenders, can make use of generic support for both its typing and attribute, has a solid and consistent way to otk on turn 2. Am really struggling to see what they’re missing.

It's funny, I think that 3rd player passed because they thought you were on Mikanko, and Mikanko typically has a hard time killing on an empty board (although it still can with the right hand)

[@Spyko-]

some AG deck also can't, there's version running around that doesn't run the duel package so chaos giant is their only OTK tool

[@theteemotaunt6538]

​@@Spyko- Without the Duel package, you can (1) use Dugares to double Chaos AG Giant to 9000, (2) use Verte Anaconda to dump Overload Fusion and summon a second Chaos AG Giant, (3) you can often get 2x AG Dark Golem and some other bodies on the field for 8k. Having an open field makes it harder for AG decks because (1) you can't activate Urgent Schedule, (2) you don't have a monster for Ballista to target so you can pop Geartown, and (3) you can't activate Duel without your opponent controlling a monster. Also, Triple Tactics Thrust is not useful.

Evil Eye. No cap. I often end up with 4 to 6 points of interaction, from Serziel's effect to Zerrziel's, to the searchable counter trap I havent even STARTED messing around with Unchained stuff yet which already had some incidental synergy Like popping a facedown Gorgonieo so you can use its GY search effect Eradicator virus and Thrust are fun and easy to throw in and use Allure bc Ive found you just need names sometimes so you max on the two level 3s that arent catoblepas. Unless you run Tour Guide. Deviser King too, just need 2 of those lvl 3s, and his effect puts them back in the GY where you want them anyway

[@LikeTheBirb]

Its my fave strat but Ive been cookin with it so long its time for me to share the sauce Ive been cookin up Tiamaton and Gizmek Orochi are also great interaction if you arent running Unchained, as well as Allure targets, and a useful Foolish Burial target if you already have the Evil Eye names you want, or just a free body. Foolish burial goods obviously I CONSIDERED Popperup for a bit and its still fun sometimes but you find you just would rather it was a better card xD Artifact synergy cannot be overstated, except for Allure usage. The Artifact MST can destroy a Gorgonieo for a search, and Sanctum needs no introduction.

[@LikeTheBirb]

As far as non-engine goes Called By obvi Crossout, Ash Blossom, and a Nibiru are nice. Imperm obvi, also great for Tiamaton usage Forbidden Droplet, which sets you up for Lightning Storm Dark Ruler No More Evenly Matched The deck is best at stunning and killing quickly, since it doesnt have much in the way of renewable resource generation. Thats also why Gizmek is good, you only search the stuff you need turn 1, hes a free body on turn 2 and a pop on 3.
