Cyber Dragon Ruling You Should Know 2022

Breaking down a lot of cyber dragon rulings you should know if you are going to play this archetype. I do intend on creating a video like this about once a month where we go over everything we need to know about the deck. Let me know what I missed!

I made some errors in this video however there have been many great people in the comments below who shared some wisdom! Appreciate everyone for helping out. I made an error about Dimensional Barrier. You still cannot summon the chimeratech monsters if your opponent uses that card. I also just realized the part with Drei's second effect to banish is wrong. You would not banish Drei with Cyberload Fusion, it would be with Overload Fusion. Also Drei with Rampage Dragon update: You CANNOT target Rampage Dragon with Drei's banish effect.

[@RafSanzio666]

Great and informative video! Looking forward to more highlighted interactions.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

thanks! Let me know if u think anything should be added

[@emiyashirou3135]

great video, I leave some cyber rules _If you add Cyber Emergency from the GY to the hand with its secondary effect it can be activated in that same turn _You can use a face-down Cyber Dragon monster for the Chimeratech Megafleet Summon, in the case of Fortress it must be a Cyber Dragon, also the Fortress Summon and Megafleet Summon do not start a chain _After using Chimera's effect to add Power Bond to the hand, you won't be able to use monsters on your opponent's side of the field to Summon Fortress and Megafleet unless they are Cyber _Megafleet and Fortress cannot be used as fusion material under any circumstances, this is not an effect and cannot be negated.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

THANKS! awesome tips I will add them. Also I just finished the Fate/Stay like 2 days ago. SO GOOD. Will watch Zero soon.

[@poisonlyrics.]

You cant activate cyber emergency by its second effect. You can only activate it once per turn.

[@MrZowieso]

@@poisonlyrics.you can if the activation was negated, because then it won’t count as being activated

[@jamesbracebridge4590]

On the core and veer activation they activate Simultaneously on Summon That’s how it chain blocks and you use Vera as chain-link two core chain-link one

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

thanks for the clarification!

[@nerdynord4315]

When XYZ Summoning Infinity on to Nova, you do keep the materials you used for Nova. Infinity's card description clearly says in brackets that Nova's Materials transfer to Infinity.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

Yes you are correct. I believe the part you are referring to is when i was mentioning the other infinity effect to suck up another attack position monster. If that XYZ monster has materials on it, those get sent to the grave. I might have been unclear which infinity effect I was referring too! My bad

[@kagemushashien8394]

I always imagine that when that ability where Infinity sucks up a card, I imagine Infinity just eating that monster regardless of size. Bone Apple Tea Infinity.

[@sonnymoonshine]

Pretty good video. I'd also add that chain-blocking with vier is purely a tcg thing. If you're playing ocg format or masterduel, your opponent has the ability to chain to core before you can chain vier

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

ok im not insane because that happened in MD and i was like WTF? LOL Weird how OCG different. Will add to notes

[@osvilagiszafari]

Another interesting thing about the Chimeratech fortress dragon is that you can use a cyber dragon to summon it that is in the spel, trap zone (for example: because it was equipped to another monster)

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

ooo yea so like a cyber dragon herz equiped to cyberdark end? I can add this to the list of rulings

[@osvilagiszafari]

@@nostalgicnighthawk yes, but it only works with the Cyber ​​Dragon if it's equipped to something (at least that's all it worked for me)

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@osvilagiszafari oo only! I will actually test this out a bit and see. Cards like core and herz do say when on the FIELD they are cyber dragons so i would assume if in the spell and trap zone that counts? But maybe not

[@osvilagiszafari]

@@nostalgicnighthawk yes, at first I assumed that too, but when I tried to summon it, I couldn't summon it and it only allowed me to summon it when the cyber dragon was equipped

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@osvilagiszafari interesting! Def a good thing to know

[@doctorcranyugioh]

You can't summon chimeratech fortress and megafleet after the resolution of dimensional barrier, since it states that neither player can *special summon* a certain monster type such as fusion.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

my bad! Thanks for the input. I should have read Dimensional Barrier once more before making my comment.

[@nawid8122]

Very helpful video man👍🏼 maybe for beginner players like me it would be also helpful to show which monsters I should (for example) search with "cyber emergency"... I know it depends on the situation but what should be the "go to" cards/monsters with cyber emergency or ANOTHER EXAMPLE which cards should be searched when activating "cyber dragon core" (i mostly search cybernetic overflow since I can pop several cards of the opponent by banishing several cyber dragons)

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

good idea! Like you said its situational but there are def times to go for certain cards and the though process behind which to search, I can do into that sometime

[@DannyDoomLord]

This might be late but he actually did make a video regarding this topic with test hands

[@jobejacobs62]

Core and Veer can only chain block cards like Ash because it says "When" in the text since its mandatory but if it were to say "If" or not directly responding to it in its text as its optional, then cards like Veiler or Imperm cannot be chain blocked since its not manadatory.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

thanks for the clarification!

[@TheReal_InkwellGaming]

It has nothing to do with when vs if. It is how you build chains Turn player manditory triggers (core) then opp, turn player optional triggers (vier) then opp, then you go to quick effects like ash, imperm etc. Veiler and imperm dodge chain blocking because they just target a faceup card they dont respond directly to it. Nothing to do with being mandatory

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@TheReal_InkwellGaming that makes sense! thank for the clarity

[@jobejacobs62]

@@TheReal_InkwellGaming basically it's because of the semi colon. If it has that, it cannot respond in a chain block.

[@TheReal_InkwellGaming]

@@jobejacobs62 nope it's trigger vs quick effects and how chains are built

[@superphishal5724]

Awesome video! 👍🏼 keep up the good work. I’m not sure about the dimensional barrier vs chimeratech fortress/ chimeratech megafleet though. Are you sure that dimensional barrier doesn’t prevent you from summoning chimeratech fortress?

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

thanks! And yea i messed up about that. I forgot D barrier specifically says special summons of the monster type! I used D barrier as the example but forgot the wording on the card. My b!

Hey brother, great video. Been trying to get a friend into yugioh and cyber dragon is his deck of choice. This will definitely help him out. But I got a question. Can you do a similar video for exosisters? There are a few things I'm still kinda confused on. Thanks, you've earned a sub.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

awesome! I am trying to get more friends into the game too XD. I honestly dont know much about any other deck other than cyber dragon. I know some stuff about red eyes and dino decks but other than that I am still trying to learn all the others! I will slowly try and brand out to other archetype but anything I say about that deck would be probs wrong haha. Whats your fav deck? Thanks for the sub!

[@yertius]

@@nostalgicnighthawk despia is my favorite, but exosister is what I'm playing rn cuz of tears and splight

@@yertius cool! So i am guessing exosisters has some small natural advance over the meta decks?

[@yertius]

@@nostalgicnighthawk yeah! They can shut off the graveyard and they can banish like no tomorrow. It's a pretty fun xyz deck.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

@@yertius ooo that spiccyy

[@HairyBear555]

So banishing Core from GY allows you to special summon ANY Cyber Dragon from your deck... I have a question about Machine Duplication and Core. If you use Machine Duplication on Core, it states "Special summon up to 2 monsters from your Deck with the same name as that face-up monster". Does this mean you can Special ANY Cyber Dragon, because most all become "Cyber Dragon" when on the field and you're summoning them directly to the field, not adding them to your hand, or can I only summon Cyber Dragon itself?

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

Remember, core's banish from GY effect says "cyber dragon MONSTER" however machine dupe says monsters with the same name. The only valid targets are cyber dragon, not a cyber dragon monsters. however if cores effect is negated its no longer a cyber dragon, its a cyber dragon core, so if you use machine dupe, you can only summon 2 more core's from your deck. LMK if that needs more clarification.

[@lawrencemelia2724]

With machine dupe, as long as the cards effect isn’t negated it will bring out two cyber dragons if it is negated you can bring it two of the monsters machine duped.

[@Jake-mw4cn]

Tell us about cyber emergency

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

cyber emergency is LITTT BROOO haha like what to search off of it and when? Someone asked that too so I might conjure up a video soon

[@Ruisu4]

hey I've been playing cyber dragon for about 5 years and I'm a official Konami judge some things you say here are correct but others arnt you should really make sure your not spreading misinformation even if unintentional

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

whats uppp. Ive been working on an updated version of this with the correct information. Also been adding everyone's comments with corrections in a Google Doc in case anyone wanted to double check. I have that in the description. Been meaning to film the updated revision of this but just didnt have time.

[@angelomadul1d]

Hello there! Is it true that chimera conflicts with the jizukiru-fortress play? In that chimera says you can only use machine cyber as fusion material?

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

hmm GOOD question but I think the answer is you can still summon fortress. This is because fortress isnt a fusion summon. Its a special summon of a fusion monster

[@angelomadul1d]

@@nostalgicnighthawk right!! I missed that part out. I got too focused on the possible chimera restriction. Cheers mate!

[@neshahagane2165]

With the example of Core and Vier doing Block-Chain, does the same thing happen if I do it with the other Cyber ​​Dragons like Drei or Nachster?

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

Yes it has the ability to chain block it, more specifically block Ash's effect.

An alle anderen Deutschen hier: Rollen sich euch auch die Nägel hoch wenn jemand "wir" statt Vier sagt? Bei Näschster, Swei und allen anderen störts mich nicht aber dieses wir, vor allem wenn es ohne Cyber Dragon davor gesagt wird, triggert mich hart.

[@joshuajray]

Hey, I was wondering, you said that if you banish core you can special summon ANY cyber dragon from your deck, could you sp summon cyber dragon laser or barrier ? Maybe you could make a « fun » deck around them and show us a few plays

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

Ok so Cores effect reads: "You can banish this card from your GY; Special Summon 1 "Cyber Dragon" monster from your Deck." So lasers name is "Cyber Laser Dragon" so i dont think its a cyber dragon since the ordering is off?? I am going to try this in MD right now cuz if thats the case thats the dopest sheet ive heard in weeks XD.

[@nostalgicnighthawk]

doesnt work :(((((

would’ve been pretty cool 😭 maybe you could do a deck profile on cyber laser ? with a negate summoning condition cards to make it usable ? An only cyber/ cyber dragon deck with proto, valley, larva etc
