Gladiator Beast is BACK in 2025! Competitve Budget Build In-Depth Combo Lines

[@chibigohan925]

For combo 1, make sure you DO NOT SEND NOXIOUS!! Comeback requires that the sent monster be a type that you don't control, here being a Beast and a Beast-Warrior, and since Noxious is also a Beast-Warrior, it would not be able to be summoned by Comeback.

[@MSTTV]

Yes DO NOT send Noxious, BEAST WARRIOR< i mention it throughout in the combo about typing restrictions

[@121071b]

Holy shit. Ive been waiting and wanting to play glad beasts for so long but thought they might be a bit too slow and this relly made them pick up the pace. Im going to play them so much now

[@ItzukiTheDemon]

Please do a full power GB list where budget is no concern

[@chibigohan925]

Also, a Tri-Brigade engine has paired extremely well with Glads since they came out

[@jay8443]

Yeah i’m looking for an updated Tri-Brigade and Glad deck. Haven’t really found one that’s decent

[@ItzukiTheDemon]

So glad to see this. I have been trying to figure out how to build it over the last week

[@timbahr1792]

Fire deck just wish they’d get ONE more main deck monster to make the deck feel meta relevant

[@Themajin972YGO]

Oh yeah ! can't wait to play them this week ♥

[@Jantonio2912]

Old School archtypes with some spice. Love it

[@vampireguy92]

The most unfortunate thing from GB is Konami didnt make "test" cards be considered GB cards. Rejection is powerful in its own right, but obviously, ppl can play around it these days amd it gets you an additional body from deck. Its crazy hwo old school cards arent OPT

[@MSTTV]

absolutely agree. I think they can just have the (This is considered a Gladiator beast card) Test Panther is the best one still by far as it adds you a card and GIVES you the tag. Bear double tag and summon condition is just tooo hard without eating a disruption and getting a hard minus off. I think the deck needs.. like quick play spell that special summons a TEST card from the deck and can choose to immediate do a GB Tag so you get alike a true double tag.

[@vampireguy92]

@MSTTV Yeah, that would be great. What if they made a card that said your opponent can't negate the effects of test monsters while you control a glad beast and could set a glad beast s/t from deck or GY.

[@Lorcanada0]

Tom says: He doesn't like Test Bear for the following reasons: - 1: If you open test bear without Unexpected Dai or Primite Roar = Brick - 2: Bricks get worse (can be hand full of andals) - 3: Awful top deck, Even test tiger is better. - 4: It is a NEG 2 when ashed.. - 5 Special summon requires set up. Why can't it just be better test Tiger..

[@lucaderighetti7653]

Any recommendations on the side deck?

[@LowellLucasJr.]

Im Goad to see Goad Beasts in acrion. Lets see how these new cards turn out!💪🔥

[@uberdueler2990]

My biggest concern is drawing an excessive number of GB combo pieces, so my lineup is only 1 Attorix 1 Augustus 1 Noxious Is all that’s needed to have access to the two-card combo, while at the same time avoiding bricking with multiple copies. If you have Attorix or Noxious, you are good to go, if you draw the Augustus, you’ll need Attorix or Noxious to salvage the combo

[@MSTTV]

3 Attorix and 3 Gistel is all I want. I only want 1 Augustus for name, But I do want Vespanaus for it is water and not Druiswurmable.. playtest has shown Bystials will hardcore disrupt combo.

[@uberdueler2990]

@@MSTTV If you are running the Bystials yourself, do you think it's worth running Crossout Designator? I assume you would have Nibiru in the side-deck, right? I like Vespasius as well, I think he would be even better with a supporting Kashtira engine (2-3 Unicorn, 2-3 Fenrir, 1 Birth), instead of using the Tenyi core. While not budget to use, Kashtiras are good at putting pressure on the opponent without needing to dedicate extra deck space to them, but their ability to SS themselves while also getting a +1 search can double as giving you a discard fodder for Arena and a non-GB material for the Links. Edit: If you are looking for some more flexibility to deal disruptions to the combo, I've also seen some good combos with just Rescue Cat.

[@AaronB22387]

Do you have a build without budget constraints? I own the expensive stuff and want to try and make this work for YCS Orlando.

[@MSTTV]

Fuwalos in the Main, Swap Remove the Vishuda, and add in Fiendsmith Engine Triple Tactics Talent in the Main Possibly Crows as well. Siding Purulia, Or Main purulia/Meowls if you choose to focus on Blind second.

[@AaronB22387]

@@MSTTV Thanks for the reply Tombox! I'll try to do GB players proud at Orlando

[@lmabchop98]

I believe gyzarus will miss timing if summoned off of Claudius

[@babrad]

It's a trigger effect that will activate in a followup chain, so it can easily go as CL1

[@CC-kp7ge]

Claudius is like Fenrir in that the effect activates on a new chain, so Gyzarus won't miss timing as long as Claudius is chain link 1 in the new chain

[@lmabchop98]

Ok I misunderstood the fact that Claudius was on a new chain

[@MSTTV]

Always CL1 Claudius

[@Bird-person00]

Looks like a better deck if it goes 2nd

[@MSTTV]

thats the direction i went back in the day in blind second GB 5 years ago. because having access to Gyzarus turn 1 was great, but now, so many negates on everything.

[@timbahr1792]

Primite best engine for glads no contest

[@MSTTV]

its really good, IREALLY WISH TEST bear was more playable, during play test, ITS literally the deck every time i see it it bricks or gets ashed and I feel so aweful, I could play crossout, but then the deck will now reli on die-roll on going 1st or 2nd. Then siding becomes extra tight.

[@lolsucks3599]

Is Arcana Force good or troll?

[@dakotahorner537]

If they could find a more insolated way of turn skip or finding something else to do that isn't just turn skip, the deck could be a real rogue contender.

[@KokujinHibiki19]

Its troll

[@GGallade]

It's troll but you can go full Dio and say "ZA WARLDO!!!!"

[@MSTTV]

ITS TROLL!!!, I will admit, I got "FTKed" Twice by them.. They have a turn skip loop! if you get sucked in you lose. I think they just got lucky coz I bricked with only 1 hand trap each game, but it feels like playing against dark world. No hand trap prepare to lose and get "FTKED"

[@don945646]

I doubt it's competitive

[@WolvesTrainingCo]

I would cook you with it

[@MSTTV]

I’m definitely gunna to put it to the test in a local vs Tom episode,

[@WolvesTrainingCo]

@ you need to change it to going second board breaks and mix a second engine. Right now I have tenpai glads and kash glads going second side going first cards and we can use feather storm then a better pure build to the one you posted is the tribirgade engine. Food for thought kash and tenpai build have held strong against ryzeal

[@darkolos5836]

Idk I cant play decks like these that are just filled with custom cards and also used to have a really cool mechanic but just completely lost it.

[@Xarobas]

second :)

[@ficchidylan7079]

Can’t believe people still play this, thank god I sold me collection from the beginning, before rarity collection. Absolutely destroyed all the loyal collectors from the beginning. Pokemon is the way, they hold value, and don’t get printed in 7 different rarities. The sad part is people listen to these influencers, that are sponsored by komoney and get free cards and sell them for profits. Crazy world

[@junglezone7323]

Crazy that you're getting into a card game solely for the resell/collection aspect

[@mhz3317]

Cry harder

[@Frido19]

People play the game more than collect and invest like it's stocks.

[@kouvue9830]

Not everyone who gets into the game is wanting to get a quick buck and spends like no tomorrow hoping to resell later. Crazy world…

[@ficchidylan7079]

It’s call a trading card game, good on komoney for brainwashing you, the banlist is the ultimate money grab once they have made their money, everyone scuffles around to get cards and spends 1,000 on a deck to have it worth 120 in a year and a half … scrubs lol, not crying trying to help people realize that these yugitubers have all of you wrapped around their fingers
