That 60 card 3-axis dragon link deck from Utrecht was actually really sick. It’s endboard was Apollosa, Gryphon, IO, Savage, and Hope Harbringer. It still maintained the ability to play through multiple handtraps including Nibiru as well as had the ability to go second rather well.

That got to a point that in the last regional, they assigned a permanent Judge just to make sure he wasn't cheating, and when he was back at the tops when people asked the Judge how did that happen, the judge couldn't answer either and just said that all of his win were actually legal and that my friend had some pact with Gren Maju or something...

See, this just gives me hope that I can one day actually win with my REBDS, The Shining, and Super Quant decks... all I need to do is figure out how to make them either _much_ faster, or make them tanky enough to stall for time. Right now, I usually need at least 4-5 turns to win with any of them, if I can survive that long (assuming I didn't go second with an absolutely perfect hand while player 1 got absolutely hosed... in those games, which happen maybe 5-10% of the time, I can win turn 2). Unfortunately, all three decks' boss monsters lack solid protection, so if I don't win on my first turn, I might as well forfeit, and while both the Red-Eyes and Elemental HERO decks can get out some absolutely absurd beatsticks by abusing their main mechanic (having lots of dragons for Red-Eyes Sword's pseudo-Buster Blader effect that would actually be _way_ better than the actual Buster archetype, if it wasn't attached to an equip card that has no protection; and banishing lots of E HERO cards for The Shining, plus Favorite Hero, since it's an extra 2k basically for free; both decks can get out 10k+ beaters within a few turns, but "a few turns" is still _really_ slow), the only _reliable_ way to get Super Quantal Mech King Great Magnus out is cheating it out with Dreadnought Dreadnoid, and that takes at least two turns to pull off, _if_ you're lucky enough to be hitting something with lower stats than Dreadnoid's 2200 ATK, since the special summon takes place during the End Phase. Using the field spell takes _way_ too long, since, even if you magically drew the Red, Blue, _and_ Green Layers in your first hand, you can only get, at most, two of their mechs out on your first turn, and there isn't a lot of good support for the archetype to even make sure you can draw them out. The later support cards help, but not enough to make the archetype viable in the current meta, and said support cards plain don't exist in Duel Links, where you literally only have the field spell and an equip trap. But goddammit, I want my fucking Power Rangers deck, and I'm not willing to accept that the archetype just sucks. I just wish that using the cards and summoning mechanics that I _like_ didn't mean that my decks seemingly _can't_ be competitively viable.

I played constellar in the dragon rulers format and it was an amazing matchup. Tons of fun.

If u think these are unbelievable, don’t look up the top decks from the 2020 Australian WCQ

[@RainniteGaming]

Gren Maju going second is always a threat. Best deck let’s go!!

Six Samurai only won in Guadalajara because the head judge ruled that Shi En could negate Hornet in the final.

[@DustyGlandon]

@@jk844100 That's even worse.

[@jk844100]

@@DustyGlandon yeah, they got away with it because the opponent didn’t know to call a judge. I guess they just assumed “well Hornet is considered and equip spell so I guess Shi En can negate it”. Which isn’t how that interaction works.

Lmao jeff jones 2012 psychic deck is still my greatest deck profile memory

[@ArchangelJuicy]

[@AriAtlas225]

Final countdown winning I think the conti from latin america and I remember a Machina gadget deck winning nats in Argentina in chaos dragons format

The madolche player at 2016 worlds was actually the only one to take a match from the then world champion, who would also go on to the world champion that year

[@Daver14X]

it's almost like Yugioh has unaccountable deck matchup variance so these weird builds can just slip by in what was previous thought of stable metas
