CYBER DRAGON IS THE BEST DECK IN RUSH!? | Rush Duel Links Deck Profile: Cyber Dragon (Fusions)!!

[@prestigedDL]

I’ve been out of touch with rush duel, but this video actually has me excited! I’m hyped cyber dragon is in the format. Keep it up!

[@Adam-mh2yc]

Congrats on second place - deck looks super fun :)

[@WortsUsernameEver]

Aside from this deck being everywhere, rush duels have been quite fun, honestly I'm considering switching to rush duels focus in my main account. Galaxy (both versions), Heros, and Dragias are the decks I've been using and I have had a blast. Cydra tho its everywhere, I get that it's a new deck and konami wants to sell it but it's way too over tuned, its current existence leads me to think that whoever is in charge of the balancing of the game must have the ojama trio for brain cells... It's quite telling that Konami seems to enjoy that only 1 deck be the best deck in each format rather than have more variety. Lyrilusc in Speed Duel (although to be fair you also see a lot of Seraph and Borrel, so at least is not the same 1 deck every time), Cydra in Rush and soon (very likely) Tenpai in MD... anyways, hope that they nerf cydra soon because I was really starting to like rush duels only for all the sudden every duel being against this deck (with the occasional non-cydra deck every 6 duels or so)... At the very least, when cydra was meta in Speed Duel we had cards like system down to deal with them... Maybe it's time for cards like Quaking Mirror Force to hit Rush Duels to stop so many otk strategies, idk.

[@red_spect3r833]

The deck is solid from some of the ones I’ve faced. The only thing is that some will overcommit into Cyber End Dragon, whiff, then lose on the crack back

[@Tomatosaurs]

Yh End can be really hard to out, but it can also just be a bunch of resources down the drain if your opponent has the out.

[@h1_hru]

Its funny that ancient gear is somehow rouge to meta in every format

[@rstada8]

With how cheap and competent the Cyber Dragon deck is, it feels like the new Harpie

[@Tomatosaurs]

Yeah I can see that, although hero is also very free to play friendly so could fall into a similar camp. Cyber Dragon is very strong without having to put much effort it and in my opinion is very simple to pilot, both of which are attractive especially for ladder players.

[@brunosanto3488]

Seeing how popular Cyber ​​Dragon is on Ladder and the moderate success the Deck has in Tournaments, it's time to kill the Deck (Speed ​​style) /s - Cyber ​​Twin Dragon limited at 3. - Cyber ​​Entry limited at 3. - Barrage of Steel limited at 3. - Additional Skill's Restrictions. That way, we'll save the Ladder. All joking aside, Rush's Cyber ​​Dragon feels strong, but at the same time there are situations where it feels uncomfortable to play. Still, this was also said about Psychic Deck and it ended up being a powerful Deck despite those "problems". Honestly? I feel like the Meta needs to adjust before making a judgement on whether Rush's Cyber ​​Dragon is strong or not: it's still too early to judge. Still, I think another Box that comes with stuff or strong support for other Decks (like Mother's Storm) would help balance Cyber ​​Dragon. Anyway, I'm curious when you do the Profile for Metarion or LIGHT Galaxy: I feel like these Decks are the most underrated in the format right now since they are overshadowed by Cyber ​​Dragon and HERO.

[@jhonnymoiseszarategomez6128]

Skill one per duel = balanced . No more

[@Tomatosaurs]

I don't see a point in doing metarion before Yuo, because i'll just have to make another video post-yuo and effectively the current build is only relevant for 5 days, but it has been performing quite well from what I've seen.

[@GrumpyCat7]

Awesome video dude! Are you gonna do a one on sevens palladin ? I've been tinkering with it a bit but can't really get any list of mine to work

[@Tomatosaurs]

Of course!

[@GamersXnostalgia]

My Psychic deck is fast and strong enough to fight back against Cybers, but not consistently enough due to their backrow removal and super consistency with their OP skills that just hands them their materials, or fusion. They messed up this game so much with one update, and Rush Duels was my FAVORITE part of duel links, I still love it. But damn, they need to nerf this deck NOW.

[@Maestro..]

There's *no way* Worker Warrior is more useful than Aim Eagle! C'mon man lol

[@Tomatosaurs]

@@Maestro.. sometimes you just need some attack points to end a game

[@Monkeylighthouse]

The main problem I've noticed with this deck is that it's extremely easy to overextend and very damaging when you do. And god help you if the game goes longer than 6 turns.

[@Gilgamesh77200]

heros always win 😂😂😂

[@puore]

Epic

[@reinierlara5421]

Hey do you think those new Beast support cards from Galactica rush minibox are very useful?

[@Tomatosaurs]

I think we are still waiting to find out what is the best home for secret order, and those beast support cards might just mean Ms Mutton wins out atm, but both Machines and Galaxy are still front runners. As more cards release, I would imagine beasts will fall off as they don't get much good support in the future outside of a card or two.

[@wallacetay2036]

whats the problem i just use a similar list but keep slap hard by overlord... like they can reduce my attack and boost seven road magician attack to overcome me.. while i jz relying on that 2 traps...

[@Tomatosaurs]

Overlord will always just be "that deck". A lot of top players (including worlds competitors) would tell you that in some matchups you just have to ignore the chance of overlord and if your opponent hard draws it, well gg move on. It's not a nice experience, and it's a big reason players have started to hate Overlord, but without more defensive options there isn't much we can do. We could play Majesty + Earthbound like the old Noodle list, but those are both limit 3, majesty requires fiends and 3 deck slots and both cards are very weak into a lot of the meta right now. What makes things worse is Metarion basically being Overlord but better!

[@brunosanto3488]

@@Tomatosaurs Metarion: The Cooler Overlord. Now, unlike Overlord, Metarion was built that way, especially if you use a Warrior Deck: you will end up losing since Metarion will take advantage of any Warrior Monster you bring out.

[@ivanjoanlisciotto7882]

hey tomato what do you thinking is the optimal number of spells/traps to avoid bricking?

[@Tomatosaurs]

9 seems to be the upper limit in general if your deck doesn't have some sort of gimmick (such as this deck or a deck on the ether package for example) but to really really safe 7-8. In the physical game we would play 40 card decks with 12 spell/traps on average (before we starting playing a bunch of consistency tools like trade-in and similar cards) so if we chop off 1/4 of the deck down to 30 cards it would also track that we'd cut off 1/4 of the spell/traps down to 9.

[@francoenriquej3493]

The skill is ridiculous man, the game needs balance or things will go out of hand as the speed format.

[@brunosanto3488]

I don't know if the Skill is the problem here. I say this because Sevens Paladin Deck and HERO Deck are mostly driven by their Skills. Rush's Cyber ​​Dragon's problem is its own cards and the lack of Trap Cards.

[@GamersXnostalgia]

​@@brunosanto3488they can run more traps due to their skill. That isn't fair for other decks that have to compromise backrow removal for consistency

[@Sunvaar45]

negate attack is really powerful. but you mentioned not being able to out huge beaters sometimes so don't you think widespread ruin would be nicer?

[@Tomatosaurs]

That's not a bad call, but it depends in boards are going tall or wide. In the current meta we typically do have tall decks that make one giant guy (cyber dragon is sort of an exception, but since twin attacks twice it's basically the same thing) so I could see ruin seeing a bit more play.

[@emblemwarrior11]

It's very popular, and the mirror is a lot of fun. It's no wonder everyone is playing it.

[@angelherenu8606]

I don't know how to feel about Cydras right now I LOVE them (Heroes and Cydra introduced me into YuGiOh) but after playing it I feel like meh Heroes are way funnier than this 😕

[@Tomatosaurs]

Cydra is more unga bunga, heroes has more interesting plays but can get walled a bit easier.

[@ProphecyPhrase]

I'll be honest with ya'll this deck is making the game not fun for me. It's so frustrating to play against, as even playing Cyber Dragon myself there aren't enough tools to deal with it. Buffered Slime + Negate Attack isn't enough, especially with every deck now getting backrow hate. If this game is going to speed up, we need more ways to slow it down so we don't just die turn 3/4. In 10 games, approx. 8 of them were the mirror match and every time the game screws me over, I'm playing this exact same list. Don't know if it is the game hating me or not and I may get hate for this but I don't care... This deck ruins Ranked for me. I'm just gonna come out and say it.

[@jhonnymoiseszarategomez6128]

Skill need nerf once per duel..

[@ProphecyPhrase]

@@jhonnymoiseszarategomez6128 Either it needs to go back to it's old effect to only grab Proto so players need to play more copies of Fusion to risk bricking. Or just give us more backrow that helps us not get blown out from the get go.

[@jhonnymoiseszarategomez6128]

@@ProphecyPhrase It is the only deck that with 1 tribute can eliminate any lvl 7 boss with less than 2500 attack. That is very strong and on top of that it is a special summon. No other deck has something similar. Another option would be to make it much easier to have bosses. 3k attack monsters

[@Tomatosaurs]

I think you've hit the nail on the head when you said our traps aren't enough. We knew this was going to happen when it was announced that we would have 6000lp, and there are still a ton of traps that we have yet to receive. I know Konami don't want the game to "slow down" but we need more defensive options, otherwise the game will boil down to who draws their wombo first and who finds / pops the only 2 trap cards (and in some cases only the legend matters)

[@ProphecyPhrase]

@@Tomatosaurs I agree 100%. In the game currently we have most if not all the typal backrow hate available (if we don't have them all we have least all the relevant typal ones anyway), Hammer Crush if your deck doesn't mind the discard and Ghost Cyclone if your deck can play the limit 3. I think this is plenty of backrow hate available to start drip feeding us more backrow designed to help the user survive the turn. I understand Rush Duel as a format is more luck-based than TCG/OCG which I think is a fair statement to say here, and I get that games will be decided from the most part, like you said, 'who draws their wombo first' and 'who finds/pops the only two trap cards'. In my opinion, I think this leads Rush Duel Links to an experience that is not fun and not enjoyable. It wasn't too bad when decks needed time to get up and going and find lethal so you wouldn't just die out of nowhere. The only decks we had that could OTK were Rebels and Overlord but that was sort of their gimmick and appeal to being played. But Cyber Dragon is that and so much more. It puts so much pressure on the opponent from as early as turn 2 in addition to an insane grind game and comeback potential that even if you do survive the early turns, it may not be enough. It sucks to say this as a massive fan of Go Rush and Rush Duels in general and as someone who was so hyped for Go Rush World that one deck ruins the experience. Can't think of what Traps we could get to handle this issue but there has to be some at least, right?

[@Total.drama.fan.forever]

Could u do Miss Mutton or Galaxy next👍

[@Tomatosaurs]

They're on the list, but won't be the next video i'm afraid.

Can u link the deck list please

[@PollexLLC]

3 weeks from the future here, i am so fucking sick of facing this deck i want to puke, all my vagabonds, almost 70% of my ranked duels, it needs a hit just because its killing variery and devaluing the otherwise very varied and fun tush metagame in duel links.

[@thelastofgus_1]

Bro, I love this deck and I'm winning a lot with it. My only problem is the mirror matches, I'm having a lot of trouble. Any tips?

[@Absol125]

From my own experience after reaching King of Games with this deck, you can't really do anything about it. Just try to play against your opponent and that's it unfortunately. But I understand your problem, yesterday I was stuck one entire day on gold 5, and three days ago I was stuck on gold 4.

[@Tomatosaurs]

Cyber Assault mvp in the mirror, also you'll just have to accept that you can't win them all and go again i'm afraid :(
