as far as the episodes go, I just really loved the whole dungeon crawl aspect of it. incidentally, its why duelists of the roses is one of my favorite yugioh games to this day. it doesn't run on dungeon crawl style mechanics (its more like yugioh mixed with chess), but the idea of mixing other games into yugioh is always interesting to me.

[@akiraishin7141]

I mean, that Jirai Gumo trap is actually really good against Link plays. If you set up your Extra Monster Zone then you're forcing your opponent to go into the other one, which is in the Colomn of Jirai Gumo. I'd say it's an incredibly good interruption card and I wouldn't be surprised if it was used in some funky ways in the future

[@xdarkangerx7601]

I mean, Broken Line saw actual success as an Imperm out because players have column habits, so while not being limited to columns would be better it's by no means a deal breaker.

Riryoku Guardian is based on the YGO Duelists of the Roses Riryoku spell the boss duelists uses, which is awesome.

[@pikachufantastic]

The anime episode more so

[@bobbysimpson2084]

I'm surprised you didn't mention Elemental HERO Prisma and A HERO Lives. As, A HERO Lives sets up an OTK by making your LP lower than your opponent's for Riryuko Guardian AND Prisma helps set up the fusions by sending one of the trio to the grave and Prisma itself can be used to make one of the smaller fusions. Honestly, aside from a Souls package, I can see some people running a small HERO package to setup for a Riryuko Guardian OTK and to set up summoning two fusions.

[@DarkCT]

rechecking the cards and yes, thats a stellar suggestion. Lives allows a bypass so you even still get the normal summon from a tank on hand.

[@F2PAlius]

The labrynth wall field spell is a labyrinth wall card, meaning it also can be searched with ghoul and activates tank's monster destroying effect

[@filipvadas7602]

What I love about this support is that they managed to remake Gate Guardian while keeping it in line with what the original card was going for. GGC is a proper boss monster that protects your field up to 3 times. And when your opponent makes it leave the field, it floats into an incomplete version of your choice, which then floats into ine of the materials. In reference to how Gate Guardian in DM could protect itself and attack using the powers of its 3 materials and had to be destroyed 3 times in order to fully get rid of the monster. The retrains of the other Paradox Brothers' monsters are also welcome, especially since their effects play into the main strategy of turboing out GG by fetching the materials from some faraway places, while also providing occasional disruption. The Spells were also a nice suprise. They're not *amazing* but they're agressive and provide a good bit of consistency with their shared GY effect. Also, for anyone wondering, Sacred Sword of 7 Stars and Fusion Deployment are great generic support. For the former, banishing a Level 7 to draw 2 is a non-issue since this archetype seems to specialise in recycling the materials for GG from the Banish Zone. As for the latter, keep in mind, all the materials on ALL of the GG variations are mentioned by name.

[@Bezaliel13]

Have to appreciate how the LV9s use the same "half of the total stats" thing from Gate Guardian. Honestly, the Crystal Beast thing was just genius

[@hafizyb]

If even Gate Guardian can get new supports/retrains, I guess hoping for those main deck Masked HERO from the manga to also be created isn't just a dream then. One can only hope.

[@aaa1e2r3]

Nice thing about the wording on the fusions' second effs is that they should still trigger when sent via Kaiju.

[@dakotastein9499]

how do you feel now that dark gaurdian and its spell is in the game now?

[@ZEDEX252]

Yes! Been waiting for this one. Glad you covered it. Honestly, the deck is a lot better than what people gave it credit. The targeting protection absolutely still comes up even in modern days and deck is surprpsingly somewhat consistent and doesn't brick as much

[@DarkCT]

Im usually not one for Dm nostalgia (unless it involves toons or the armor cards) but this gate guardian stuff is slick. a detail i think you forgot on Jirai Gumo. it's better than it looks simply because while it's the most restrictive trap monster yet, it's destruction effect doesn't target. i always take special notice of non-targeting destruction, and this one has that going for it. I do think suggesting burial goods and grave tactics is a clever move, plus dropping Berth in was a wise idea as well. the game plan is to get as many of the big ones out and crush the board, so it adds up well. the wording on the new Shadow Ghoul also implies we could do some fun non-targeting destruction battle tricks during our own battle phase as well unless i misread it, so thats a great way to go here.

[@jtwatts7990]

This has probably already been said but I noticed last night that Asernal Guardian and The Labyrinth Archetype can search some of these cards

[@chrisshorten4406]

The art for the Fusions look so unique in style. I wonder who created them?

[@Sta_cotto]

Legacy support like this fuels my dreams of a Digimon Adventure 2020-style remake of the original Yu-Gi-Oh, complete with 8000 LP duels, more close-to-life rules (but not exactly so we can still have fun things like decking out Strings with Card of Safe Return or the busted anime Card of Sanctity), and character having access to a variety of modern (non-synchro/xyz/pendulum/link) support and retrains. Like, could you imagine the Duelist Kingdom arc but instead of arbitrary "field power bonuses" it's just that the duel fields all have static field spells in play? Joey still using a kitbashed deck during DK but once Battle City rolls around, he has a more focused Red-Eyes/gamble deck? Tea using a coherent angel-themed deck probably made of a mashup of every archetype tied to Sanctuary in the Sky? Of course, it's not like they'd play like IRL players, no 3-ofs, splashable engines, and cheesy staple cards; obviously things like Monster Reborn and Change of Heart but like, everyone plays 60 card decks with mostly one-ofs with exceptions (like the 3 Blue-Eyes and that one rare hunter that had counterfeit 3-ofs for Exodia and Graceful Charity) so duels still have this element of randomness to them; i.e. Yugi still has supplemental engines like the magnet warriors and the face card knights but also has things like buffed ritual retrains of BLS and Magician of Black Chaos.

[@Bezaliel13]

What would be the point without the new ED monsters?

[@leojamesquiambao1047]

Happy what Konami did to Gate Guardian here. The deck is playable but not broken to the point that it feels as if the one who made them had a boner for the one who used them in the anime (cough, Ishizu cough)

[@anthonythomas305]

[@Puffzilla777]

I appreciate that nearly everyone that discussed Gate Guardian makes their introductions rhyme

[@jpaesch8380]

One thing you didn't mention in the video is that you could probably use Elemental HERO Prisma, alongside A Hero Lives to get an extra material onto your field (since Prisma can mill one of the elemental trio and copy it's name) while halving your life points (likely putting you at lower life points to activate Riryoku Guardian).

[@thewave-qz9lt]

another good use for magician souls is also sending the GG pieces from the spell and trap zone for its draw effect since they also count as continous spells.

I'm slightly peeved that the Gate Guardian cards don't have synergy with the Labrynth archetype due to the spelling. It would've been choice to give that archetype actual bosses in the labyrinth like an actual dungeon. But that's just a personal thing.

[@filipvadas7602]

Never thought I'd seee the day that Gate Guardian is a functional and actually fun archetype. But here we are!

[@RedDragonForce2]

I would add these two cards to compete the support package: Parajin Level: 4 Attribute: LIGHT Type: Spellcaster Atk: 1850 Def:1500 Effect1: Once per turn, you can special summon one “Doxjin” from your hand, deck, or GY. Effect2: If you control this card and “Doxjin”, you can discard one LIGHT, WIND, or WATER Monster, special summon 1 Sanga of the Thunder, Kazejin, or Suijin respectively from your hand, deck, or GY. You can only use one of these effects per turn and only once that turn. Doxjin Level: 4 Attribute: Dark Type: Spellcaster Atk: 1850 Def:1500 Effect1: Once per turn, you can special summon one “Parajin” from your hand, deck, or GY. Effect2: If you control this card and “Parajin”, you can discard one LIGHT, WIND, or WATER Monster, special summon 1 Sanga of the Thunder, Kazejin, or Suijin respectively from your hand, deck, or GY. You can only use one of these effects per turn and only once that turn. These two would help spam the field with the pieces, and allow you to run 3 of each monster since your continuously rotating them in and out of the Banished Zone.

[@snowboundwhale6860]

It might have taken years of memeing to get there, but now that Gate Guardian support exists ngl it was worth the wait, not sure they'd have gone as hard as this a couple years ago even if it is nostalgia support. I love it.

[@gap9897]

I looked at the artwork of all the gate guardian adjacent cards and Suijin's eyes are black but in it's own art its got blue eyes. Perhaps an alternative artwork of Suijin to more look like the gate guardian monsters is in order.

[@ffjj3964]

Personally, I think it would be more interesting if Konami did a Structure Deck on small Archetype. Like the “Star” Warriors or the “Umbral Horror” or the “Puppet” Chess Archetype. Mainly because could flex its creative muscles more.

[@gustavo-fy8tc]

i wish the level 12 fusion could also use the original Gate Guardian on the field as the whole material, not just the separate 3; this would encourage players to summon the original one, then 2 copies of the level 12. Also, i hope they do a Dungeon Worm retrain, gotta love that boi and I have an original copy of it, bought in 2011 lol

[@Justme-rt4gj]

3:12 I Find it interesting because it says any "Labyrinth Wall" card and while its obviously meant only for the Field Spell it still says card insted of specificly the name of the Field spell, other monsters exist that are discarded to searsh a field spell like thie Sanctuary in the Sky and a Legendary Ocean, but say the specific name. So that may mean Konamy will print other "Labyrinth wall" cards that will also be searchable by this one. Maybe a retrain of the Original Vanilla Labyrinth Wall monster, would be interesting since I always liked the disign of gate Gurdian and its 3 components buet they had trash efects so this support was good and would be great if more is printed eventually.

[@letmerapwityou3845]

[@nerazim1110]

You can use prisma to get two names at the price of one: one on the field and one in the gy

[@OBrienMagic]

Getting the 3 pieces in the S/T zones is similar to when they placed the pieces on the board in the chests too!

[@OBrienMagic]

In fact, A spell that just simply does that for free would be excellent as well.

[@pleinairzawarudo9381]

I think the new Riryoku is a reference to Duelist of the rose, since that's the effect i had in that game.

[@macieceballos3051]

For a retrain of dungeon worm & monster tamer, i feel dungeon worm (dungeon worm of the labyrinth or prey of the dungeon/labyrinth worm) would work as another jirigumo where its spell or trap card that targets a monster zone & destroys a monster or back row card too, monster tamer (monster tamer of the labyrinth) could work as a continuous spell that recycles the big 3 back to the spell&trap zone (once per turn you can target 1 sanga, suijin, or kazejin that is banished or in the graveyard & place it face up in the spell&trap zone as a continuous spell once per turn) or maybe a monster that special summons itself & while its face up on the field, the opponent can't target any cards that list sanga, kazejin, suijin or gate guardian with card effects & they can't target this card for an attack if one of them is on the field

[@thekrispiestkreme5609]

Could you imagine if these really were just made as a union archetype? That would’ve been cool

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

11:02 Personally I would like a “Labyrinth Wall” pendulum retrain (since we now have it in monster and field spell form, having a third that splits the difference sounds cool). I’ll brainstorm one now: _Paradox Labyrinth Wall_ (EARTH) Level 5 Pendulum Scales: 8⬅️➡️0 Pendulum Effect: _If you control a “Gate Guardian” or “Labyrinth” monster or a level 7 WIND, WATER or LIGHT card on your field, you can place this card from your extra deck into your pendulum zone. While this card is face-up on the field, Level 5 or higher monsters need 1 less tribute to normal summon/set, and Facedown cards you control cannot be destroyed by card effect. You can activate 1 of the following effects each time you summon a “Gate Guardian” or “Labyrinth” monster or level 7 WIND, WATER, or LIGHT monster:_ ⚪️ Target 1 monster you control: It can attack again in a row this turn. ⚪️ Special summon from your hand or deck 1 level 5 or lower monster with 3000 DEF in face-up defense position. ⚪️ Add 1 “Labyrinth” card or level 7 WIND, WATER or LIGHT monster to your hand from your deck. Rock/Tuner/Pendulum/Effect _Once Per Turn, (Quick effect) If you would take battle or effect damage from an opponents card, and you control no effect monsters on the field; Special summon this card from your hand or deck in face-up defense position. While this card is in face-up defense position: Monsters you control can attack while in defense position (using their ATK for damage calculation), and deal piercing battle damage. While this card is in face-up attack position, all face-up monsters with 1600 or less ATK or DEF your opponent controls are destroyed. Once per turn, you can shuffle 1 card from your GY or banish zone into your deck: Add 1 “Labyrinth” monster or level 7 WIND, WATER or LIGHT monster to your hand from your deck._ ATK/1700 DEF/3000

[@FnnyAzn]

Another good tech pick is Elemental HERO Prisma! foolishs a name and gets a name on field!

[@BramLastname]

This could be combined with the upcoming Superheavy Samurai Support, As they can set up a 1 - 8 scale without using your normal summon, Giving you a way to get your monsters onto the field under the protection of a Stardust Dragon.

[@MissFortune1000]

I’m happy old cards are getting love I always wanted the Cyber Girls to get re-trains in a way that makes them compatible with the cyber angels.

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

0:46 the text is just flabbergasted

[@TowanTalks]

So this archetype works really well with Phantom Knights as a package with it, Torn Armor let's you drop the searchers to set up a Cincada. Also the P.U.N.K can get you the same with holding your normal summon, so you can use the Tank. (Potentially set up the double spell negate with a baronne or the Lvl 10 swordsoul that can trigger off activating the searcher s/ts in grave)

[@demonkingsparda]

[@theHedgex1]

Oh my God they're definitely making me want to get this and regret that they didn't do a horus retrain

[@darkstalkerknight63]

Keeper of dragon magic, magical's soul and illusion of chaos. If you have illusion of chaos and 3 of the spell and trap card, Use illusion of chaos, add magical's soul, return any card you don't need, summon magical's soul, send 4 cards, add 4, use the 3 spells/trap in your gy, place all 3, summon gate Guardian combined. All of that without a normal summon which you can use on keeper of dragon magic or heavy tank But if you have keeper of dragon magic, you can still get all 3. Summon keeper, send any of the spells/trap, add fusion de or fusion con, use keeper of dragon magic second effect, revealing gate Guardian combined. Summon 1, use the spells/trap in the gy, place another, use the fusion to get the third one, send all of them for gate Guardian combined So you could do both and get all 3 gate Guardian combined out in 1 turn of you draw return from a different dimension or any of the other cards that allow you to place them back in your gy or desk

[@karetsu889]

While I know it's not the thing people wanna hear right now, Kashtiras can def help here. Having LV7s that can swarm can really help. And you could get Shagra-Ira and Arise-Heart on the field. And since you can pitch from the hand for the fusions so you don't need to really worry about controlling them on field. And if you do, and I misread, then Tank is still the best normal summon in the deck when Labyrinth Wall Shadow is on the field.

7:20 Is genarlly agree this is the weaker of the new GG fusions though still can definitly help to OTK the opponent. Still I think Konami could have gone a little more with this like also changing the Defense to 0 and maybe being able to inflict piercing battle damage.

[@23gameoverlord]

Where's Dungeon worm, monster tamer, and other Labyrinth card restrains. Aside from that little tangent, I NEVER thought that Gate Guardian would get its own archetype! That is wild! Though I think we should've gotten retrain versions of the element trio as well.

[@VampireDragonover900]

I personally would've wanted support for the OG GG, maybe a ritual retrain (like Summon Skull got 1 of almost every extra deck card type)! Adapt the Paradox skill cards from the speed duel format (maybe just parts of their effects) especially for the ritual retrain and have it otherwise benefit from using the OG GG as tribute fodder! I'm glad Labyrinth Tank got a retrain but wish the OG fusion got support; perhaps in the form of retrained fusion materials; yes im aware cannon solider has an evolution in cannon solider mk-2 but mk-2 is an EARTH attribute not dark so maybe a labyrinth version of cannon solider mk-2 as a dark so "Labyrinth Cannon Solider", same with Giga-tech wolf but DARK maybe "Labyrinth Tech Wolf". As for what they would do; retrains treat themselves as the originals when not in the deck, they would have the OG tank gain effects (when the retrains are used as fusion materials) as well as a floating effect that summons the retrain tank and the OG fusion materials, but the retrain materials can special themselves by sending the OG fusion materials to the GY! As for Shadow Ghoul, Magical Labyrinth, and Wall Shadow, im glad labyrinth wall shadow exists but "manifested labyrinth wall shadow" as a retrain for wall shadow is my idea; use Shadow Ghoul's BANDAI ATK points of 2200, keep the 3000 DEF, summon it from hand or GY by sending the OG shadow ghoul and magical labyrinth to the GY from anywhere else, when it leaves the field have it float into Wall Shadow with perma-gained doubled ATK and cannot be destroyed effect. Also give these aforementioned card ideas i've typed out general Gate Guardian synergy!

[@garrettsmith4034]

Been waiting for this support since MRD release.

[@brandol75]

a retrain for worm and tamer i think would be labyrinth worm and labyrinth tamer which have the stats of their vanillas, an effect where if you control 1 of those 2 you can special summon the other (ex. if you control tamer you can special summon the worm, same thing for worm but in reverse), you can only control 1 of each and you can only special summon them this way once per turn and for seperate effect, worm can destroy the monster that is summoned to the same zone the worm is and tamer would take control of the monster that is summoned to the zone he is, both as hard once per turn.

I love retrains for 3 reasons Nostalgia New awesome art And a fun deck just build

[@VampireDragonover900]

I know a lot of people here in the comments want the element trio to have retrains; my idea is more de-evolutions that treat themselves as their bigger originals in name when not in the deck in a E-Hero Neos Alius way (Just not a Gemini) BUT! Cannot be tributed except for Gate Guardian (the effect monster) but gives the summoned Gate Guardian additional effects (like Beginning Knight & Evening Knight for Black Luster Solider Ritual monsters). As for using them for the fusions, I would say they shouldn't be used as material themselves but rather act as a De-fusion and then immediately fusion for Gate Guardians combined! I.E. if you control a "Gate Guardian of Thunder and Wind" and you have the Suijin "retrain" in your hand or on your field, send your fusion monster back to the extra deck, send the retrain to the graveyard, and banish the original Suijin and boom! Gate Guardians combined on your field!
