Is worth noting that, unlike almost every other event, Zombie World is at 3 in this one, which cooks most of the Decks in this video, specially important in a format with Beatrice legal ZW is also legal in the Zero Extra event btw

[@NeostormXLMAX]

Sad its not synchros

[@TheShapestofSnatches]

Since it cooks most decks it also means that most decks can't actually play it either

Depends on the deck, I don't rage when it's used in salad, I rage when playing against snake eyes

[@meistalampe8894]

Well, yeah raid raptor is completely legal (if you don't play the Kali Yuga variant, which i do not) and ready to go. The only thing i worry about this deck is, that raid raptor is also a "free" deck in the event, so expect to have a lot of towers stair downs. Or pring something with more than 5300 attack / something that searches Lava Golem/Kaiju, because they most likely will land on 2 towers + omni + field wipe every single game.

[@TheShapestofSnatches]

@@meistalampe8894 I have a feeling the people playing the loaner won't make the most optimal boards

I'm maindecking lavagolem for the event, fuck that

[@notshino]

Recently brushed up my old traptrix deck, with ragnaraika and a mini Therion engine (3xLily, 1xDiscolosseum, 1xRegulus). Love how it’s finally able to play through 2-3 disruptions without too many issues with most hands.

[@mrbondtux4987]

if you wondering why those 2 deck is legal, ppl just simply cook Konami (on survey's) about triangle event that focused to selling synchro deck especially Tenpai and Centurion. Link deck barely playable back then and Synchro deck is unstoppable since no maxx c and ppl easily summon omni negate before 5 summon.

[@WholsShyShen]

Ayo no one talked about Spyral being @ full power! 👀

[@fr0sty_saiyan491]

Im going to play dinos for the xyz-link event, we lose basically nothing besides the fusion that never comes out and synchrps for gamma, its full power.

[@TheUltimateCancerCell]

Salads without Princess is kinda painful ngl. At least we have Miragestallio this time unlike in last month's event. I might have to either deviate from a full Cyberse Salad or find something else to climb to Raging Phoenix xD

[@thefictionalsandbox3065]

im bringing my own machine deck for this event

[@Starslayer-Zeus]

I was thinking about using Purrely but it's been hit so hard I think I will have to mix it with a chunky Kashtira engine. The excavate 3 from Purely whiff so much I really have to do that otherwise I would have to run 3 of the 2 diferent Purrely traps which are bricks. Either that or I run loaners. Ex Zero is such a pain too at least it won't be as bad as Antology or whathever the event that only allowed solo mode gate decks. Loaners were bad and the only deck I could run felt miserable to play against others.

[@catcocaine9698]

Thank goodness they didn't make XYZ x Link into a DC-based event.

[@kapwns]

Another reversal quiz otk format. I could probably do one for the no extra too if Konami didn't ban wall of revealing light.

[@browking8161]

Good thing for me, I have both constructed Plant Link and Raidraptors already, so I don't have to worry about crafting anything. The Ex-zero event tho... I'm gonna have a tough time building for that one.

[@bossanova3292]

Expect the community to be seething about unchained and call for it to be nerfed. That deck flew under the radar so hard cause of snake eyes.

[@bvc5320]

Evil Twin deck was easily fixed. Just had to drop 1 Spright in both main, and extra, and replace Max C.

[@AnotherWindaSimp]

I like the raidraptor loaner ratios, they can be better, yet still enough to work (got my own raidraptor build) coping to complete the gems fast and get out of both events

[@darthdarek7435]

[@gavinbutler6453]

This is the third event in a row that I’m playing @Ignister. For duelist cup, it was fairly cheap so it was the only (at the time) meta deck I had. Triangle was particularly fun. Despite losing “Albert”, Mathmech cards are still useful since Circular is still a +2. You can also search Diameter off of Wicckid, and it was necessary to run without Wind Pegasus and “Albert”. End board was unaffected Terahertz + Arrival + Danmari in grave + 1 extra card because linking off Heatsoul was part of the combo. Was Arrival necessary? I have no idea because most people just scooped after realizing that I made the thing that negates battle phase effects unaffected by everything. Remember all the Tenpai players running around? Very nice of Konami to feed them to the link group 😈

[@frogofdaswamp4156]

Hey man can you make a video on Ex Zero decks? I have no idea what's good or not, or even what's available

[@spicymemes7458]

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't tired of XYZ events, but the gems are nice.

[@detectivefrost1921]

[@TCakes]

[@Marionettadesu]

I'll just try Madolches and see how it goes

[@ExcelSpreadShieets]

Thoughts on Ragna Beetrooper for the event?

[@TheShapestofSnatches]

Yeah it's basically completely legal minus being able to search its boss monster (Maxx C). Don't think it's the best or 2nd best deck to use Ragnaraika cards though

[@zakariaelhimer1325]

I'm either playing unchained or plants, i have vanquish soul also. Also you can play avramax in the spright deck it's very hard to out if made by masquerina. I would play unchain without the D/D/D package to fit in more non engine.

[@Andrito3000]

I was thinking to finally use Salads since I built them a while ago but every event I find something better to play. Previous two times they couldnt use the XYZ and synchro and we're available as pure link spam and now the XYZ is available but no Prom princess. 😑

[@TheUltimateCancerCell]

Yeah it's gonna be quite difficult to go for Raging Phoenix without a good Fire Link 3. But ama try Salads anyway xD

[@GaaraOTD_TTV]

I'm gonna run Scareclaw kashtira for the xyz/link and I think true draco for the other? But im not sure

[@luchocas2]

Darkfluid is 1 monster negate without Pegasus, not 2. I find it funny that you made the distinction for Singularity but not for him.

[@TheShapestofSnatches]

Tbh Darkfluid's been cut recently in @Ignister for Terahertz so I also mentally cut it

[@feelingdeadly1043]

Dino’s will be fun I always use them when I can

[@xenonim]

Asside then dark bacon line, your can also go for live twin unchained deck upgrade version which also can do same combo like unchained normally do and bonus some combo line can end up trouble sunny as additional interruption. Live twin unchained is very underated compared to live twin spright tbh. Spright sprind only useful if play nimble / frog /deepsea diva engine to dump, like i always summon sh@ty click and echo to opponent field, force opponent reveal card in the hand all the time. I wasted 2500 gems for live twin just get alt work I:p which ok i didn't own, and evil twin Kil-sikil which ok. Most people i watch get Lila but some unknown reason i get Kil-sikil alt work

[@jaydee2624]

Prob being playing Traptrix, Shining Sarc and Generaider (Only slighty hit). Could try Gobin Biker but I dunno wtf I'm doing or how to even build it. Not playing Plants I hate that that stuff, except Aroma of which last 2 pieces are hit(1 fusion/Synchro) and Ragna is not fun as the higher links like Stag/Coils are borderline useless most games for me.

[@determinedoolemon1327]

I'm going to cook with Burgers in Ex Zero 🍔

[@alexandergeorgiev74]

Live twins with unchained is good option too

[@CorinLock]

Na lightning storm getting banned is reasonable, tenpai makes that card look like it has hidden effects as well as negating the opposite cards that you didn’t use it effect on(referring to the backrow removal and the monster wipe) hell I keep reading the card but I’m starting to slowly realize that the effect only shows for tenpai which is “when you draw this card and or use either of its effects immediately spawn in a starter in your hand”

[@TheBlueAkumu]

60c plants full power, my ranked build is full power. I'll stick to good old phantasm spiral for ex-zero.

[@LegalLoreClips]

Do you think spright live twin is good in regular rank

[@lezenwell]

I use it a lot, it rarely bricks but you need to bait hand traps first

[@TheShapestofSnatches]

It's fine not tier 1, not unplayable

[@Lambster-d4l]

would you say purrely is good for this event with some kash cards ?

[@CauseImDuncan]

Nope, not with 1 sleepy and 1 of the searcher, that continuous spell card.

[@TheShapestofSnatches]

I think Kash is better than Purrely. You can make Purrely work as a blind 2nd deck potentially.

[@seph2686]

I think purrely is still okay probably not 1 of the strongest but it will still get through the event imo

[@dragkigamer7944]

Not even going touch extra zero when most of good decks that could play without a extra have bans on them to point they cant be played and the one deck could play without a extra(being lab) key cards are banned But the xyz/link i will be playing live twin for that and enjoying that event

This event is stupid regarding all the cards that are banned here. What's the rrason for that? For example if fire deck is too strong here why they dont ban em on ranks?? I suspect events is thete only to boost the pack sale. I'm new player only played event once before (syncro, xyz and link), which coincidentally same time as release of tenpai lol.

[@jabermogwai5996]

this is basically what they always doing, before this they use synchro-link-fusion event to promote tenpai and now they use ex zero event to promoto shining sarc deck

I had the idea that, If I run some swordsoul cards like Long Yuan, Make the Token after my link stuff, And then use “creature Swap” And give my opponent a token somehow 🤔

[@MasterDecoy1W]

The summon lock is not an inherent property of the tokens. The effect that creates them specifically states that "While that Token is in the Monster Zone, the player who Summoned it cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck, except Synchro Monsters."

[@obskewerd3992]

@ Ah poo. Good catch before I went ahead and did and tried it.

No, no wait Plants did het hit, they don't have the Aroma Fusion. So you can only play Rikka Raika Sunavalon. Anyways, there are a ton of options for this event, which is cool

[@chaosinfernoid9008]

That sounds disgusting damnn. But i think its okay.

[@rmiki96]

​@@chaosinfernoid9008 It's balanced by the fact that Infinitrack is really inconsistent when played outside of Earth Machine and our combos are kinda garbage... and also Megaclops, the main deck's monster might as well not even exist since it's essentially impossible to summon consistently. That's why we're forced to rely on garbage strats like Arise-Heart or Cyber Dragon Infinity (this one's kinda based though). This wouldn't even be a problem if Konami released some actual support for the deck instead of just a single card.
