I Built Kaiba’s Deck BUT If He Played Modern In Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Similar to the Yugi video I did recently, this is what I think Kaiba would play if he was into the MODERN Yu-Gi-Oh! of today!

[@primalwarriors8526]

I feel kaiba would still use a lot of blue eyes extra deck cards

[@StarPlatExe]

Kaiba would play blue eyes with a little seasoning blue eyes till death

[@bigred212]

At least tyrant and twin burst imo Then one copy of ultimate the 1 out of 10 duels he gets to active that 😂

[@loganbates3578]

At least one of either twin burst neo ultimate or tyrant

[@byson8880]

Yea your right I feel he would run at least a few

[@Ghostytheone]

I disagree. if kiaba was around with the card pool available now as a meta player I don't think he'd see a use in playing them and would stick with his 3 base blue eyes

[@RoyalBlue93]

Probably would not play linkuriboh since Kuriboh was always a Yugi card. Maybe striker dragon would be better as a link 1 since its a dragon. I also think he'd be more on a link dragon vs branded since link dragon is, imo, a better engine.

[@zerofang009]

Guard dragon pitsy or hiedratic seal. He wouldn't touch link kuriboh

[@Goldenswagger359]

Yes i do agree, funny enough i think bro would still use Obelisk in a modern deck.

[@ZeothTheHedgehog]

So what Rhyme is saying, these aren't modernized variations of the character's deck, this is a what if the characters rebuilt their decks to work in the modern day.

[@iconica9516]

​@@davidali7664tf do you think kaiba would be running?

[@ahmednaka3562]

​@@iconica9516it's not about what he would run, it's that the video is basically a modern blue eyes deck, nothing special from any past video. If you wanna know what I mean watch Seereax do a yugi deck which has Arcana knight and some cool stuff.

[@ZeothTheHedgehog]

@@davidali7664 again, this is what Rhyme thinks Kaiba would use to be competitive today. By all means, if you think he can be competitive in a different way, go on ahead and tell us.

[@iconica9516]

@@ahmednaka3562 what seereax is doing isn't modern decks he's just making authentic decks on the characters with a modern twist what rhyme is doing is actual modern kaiba would run a generic modern because he is fucking Kaiba

[@ZeothTheHedgehog]

​@@davidali7664to shift this thread from the negativity, I would like to see Rhyme doing ABC for Kaiba.

[@AlphaOutlaw]

I think Kaiba, early on in a series, would run Chaos Max. As time went on, I'd expect something like this, but with cards like Chaos Emporer, the Dragon of Armageddon over Albaz and Striker and Seals over Linkuriboh. He'd never use a Kuriboh

[@ThePhantom555]

I agree about the Kuriboh. For gameplay it absolutely fits (I run it in my modern Kaiba deck too) but after Duelist Kingdom that man hates Kuriboh with a passion.

[@dudeguy8686]

Linkuriboh, Relinquished Anima, or Striker Dragon. Kaiba's really only got one choice

[@ericbreese3071]

Also, Allure of Darkness was semi-limited at one point (not sure if ever limited, most likely never banned)

[@Kaos9696]

Looking at the number of UR, I feel Kaiba would have them all in Royal rare. For Joey, I want to see him utilize budget options as much as possible

[@marceloflausino349]

I would love to watch you doing a modern Bakura deck! Great video as always, man!

[@occheiciemp317]

Wow fantastic how kaiba uses chaos and bystials, and also yugi uses chaos and bystials, AND ALSO EVERY DECK USES CHAOS AND BYSTIALS

[@HigureHokousha]

I like this, but I feel like he'd still be running Blue-Eyes fusions and support to some degree...and probably not as much non-Dragon Chaos. Feel like Branded's and Bystial, being "big dragons," are right in his wheelhouse, though.

[@TLBreezy]

I cannot wait to see the characters through 5Ds edit: I think he woulda used ABC Buster Dragon as like homage to his XYZ Dragon Canon

[@wastelandcloud4355]

I hope this series keeps going to the minor characters. Rex got that strong dino support and Weevil has many bugs to choose from these days. Even Tea got real angels (fairies) to work with.

[@thiefthearcher9907]

I’m digging these modern decks, and it’s been inspiring me to make new decks in Master Duel to experiment. More of a theme than a strategy. So far I have Synchron Warriors and Cyberdark as one. And War Rock/Amazoness as another. And I’m looking forward to see your modern Joey deck, since there’s so many Red-Eyes cards now.

[@101Sonicninja]

For the Joey deck, may I recommend a combination of Red Eyes/gambler's deck. Since Joey was taught by Solomon who was a legendary gambler I think incorporating gambling would be good, plus Joey and Red Eyes go hand in hand like Seto and Blue Eyes and Yugi and Dark Magician.

[@Rose-eo3tg]

Let Doto play the deck

[@mikeytuns]

Seeing a rhymestyle video pop up on my feed makes me so hype 😁

[@narutokiubissj2]

IMO, if you ever do a Joey video, he would try to pull off the Red-Eyes burn FTK. Only Red Eyes Fusion and 2 Inferno Fire Blast. It is a sacky luck based strategy AND it needs Red-Eyes so it fits him.

[@Concerned_Custodian]

Joey is fun

[@realpatriot1769]

Replace 1 inferno with trap track, destroy comet dragon and set red-eyes burn

[@kyuurogane6254]

In terms of cards that Kaiba would probably play in modern day Yu-Gi-Oh (besides Blue-Eyes obviously) it would have to be the XYZ, ZW, and ABC Union monsters. Yes, I know that the ZW monsters are Chaz’s cards, but they actively support the XYZ Dragon Catapult Cannon as a whole.

[@twizted_goblin]

Holy Im on Time as Someone that cant play this game in My country it seems im Stuck with Legacy of Dualist it always Blast to See u play , hell yeah !!!

[@amadeofan1]

Man. Wasn’t expecting this so soon. I ain’t complaining though!

[@eddienieveslugo9666]

Kaiba definitely playing chaos max, and he's pulling out an ultimate dragon for the flex alone

[@steezie]

I get that chaos max might not be that good, but I think he'd definitely have it especially with all the chaos cards

[@bowerful1]

That weevil underwood deck boutta go hard

[@itachidattebayo]

I was playing a Chaos deck and I learnt about the Chaos Witch rule the hard way too.

[@heroman3259]

Im kinda excited for the joey wheeler dice/coinflip deck!

[@Adamame93]

I can’t wait to see how you would do Joey’s. Not cause I need a net deck or anything 😌

[@the_swoletariat1621]

I like what you did with both this and the yami deck man, I think people just get way too mired in nostalgia for their own good sometimes.

[@LegendaryKwandaleDingle]

I love this series already, I can’t wait for the rest. My idea still stands and I will continue to put it in the comments. I think u should do a wheel of characters with The Idiots, u guys spin a wheel and u create a modern version of that character…this will be entertaining because each of the idiots thinks differently and each can come up with different ideas so it doesn’t matter if both pick the same character.

[@Ribbonzarkuraspear]

Remember my friend and I stayed up all night trying to build a Celtic guardian deck in legacy it was so fun xD

[@trevorbrooks274]

That was a good Kaiba deck. I hope next is Joey

[@jasonherbo2148]

Joey playing a red eyes luck deck the red eyes support is actually pretty good feel like Joey would have a mix of red eyes dragons with flip this coin or roll this dice red eyes don't have a lot of luck draws but Joey's cards withe the red eyes support would mesh really well

[@hybridthe0ry1]

I think he would use Blue Eyes Tyrant Dragon still, i use it as well and recycling traps or battling an entire field without worrying about mirror force or other traps goes kinda hard sometimes. Works pretty well with my branded/bystial blue eyes deck

[@kipihamazaki9207]

This is a lot more accurate to how kaiba is then the yugi one which had several issue's in it

[@navrayat8002]

I would agree with your deck but I would also add tyrant dragon and chaos max. I think Kaiba also has a plan b and c: Plan b- abc union dragon buster Plan c- all the crush cards.

[@williamk4920]

"Kaiba's always playing meta." The man had Saggi the Dark Clown in his deck as recently as the Dark Side of Dimensions movie

[@pringleman6932]

That allure logic can extend to discard cards with dark world. Unless the archetype is broken, there’s no reason to ban accidental support

[@Pythonthymo]

I wanna see you duel against the odds ...a 4+ round duel that really got you thinking about your next play

[@ZeothTheHedgehog]

That entails what? Playing pure Blue-Eyes?

[@Goldenswagger359]

I would love a Yugi Muto modern version.

[@TheTerminator8397]

You should do a series where you and seereax duel using the single player decks in master duel.

[@mustabindawind]

Damn Red Eyes +Dark Magician ...mans didn't want just a brick house...he wanted a whole brick mansion 😂

[@user-zp7lw1sd1u]

this is cool, are you going to do Bakura anor Marik?

[@icetrey8662]

If anyone still trying to play Dark Magician (or Buster Blader) in this Meta then you should add Ghost Belle to your deck. Or Chaos Hunter if you feeling spicy.

[@derickleal6829]

You should do this with friends but do 1 of everything for the challange bc its what they would have done except kiba with his 3 blue eyes

[@jalenbrown7239]

I’ve been watching your videos and you a real one rhyme! 🔥

[@tylerbuckland9786]

I like the chaos package in the deck, tho personally. I think he would play a more pure Blue-eyes deck just because of how his deck was in dsod. I still love how the deck looks

[@user-fy8yk9pp8v]

Kaiba would definitely play a small package of ABC, x3 galaxy soldier, and maybe thunder dragon package if colossus came back. I have been working on this deck for a long time. Konami really needs to make a light type, Dragon or Blue Eyes Virus Card whose name is treated as crush Card virus (get fang of critious in there). Or eriata the others. A new “Dark clown” that works with either searching for blue eyes or a virus Card would be nice as well. Kind of like they did the the new lord of D variant

[@RevolverTheory]

I feel like they'd run the modern remakes of the old cards they use to use. Chaos emperor, mystikal elf etc

[@jake-vt5xb]

Man I rlly think that yugi and kaiba would both play 60 card decks so u should be playing 60 card decks. Also with Joey I think that he would run a mainly red eyes deck with a jinzo thrown in there and maybe some bystials. But something fun that u could do with Joey is run only monsters cuz for like the first season of yugioh he had only monsters in his deck

[@luminousxii]

This is supposed to be optimal, 60 cards decks that don't have absurd draw power/milling power just aren't good unless they have a crazy combo engine full of bricks they don't want in hand

[@seedfan8548]

I reckon Kaiba would definitely be playing, Dark End Dragon and Hot Red Dragon Archfiend Abyss; maybe Light End Dragon & Light and Darkness Dragon, though he may forgo them, strictly for room for more Blue-Eyes cards in his deck.

[@red_back5382]

If you run omega and dis pater you can hand loop your opponent for 2 with the right combo

[@shadowX2121]

I feel like Kaiba would run Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon and the supports along with his Blue-Eyes cards as well as the XYZ cards that go with it.

[@xxwhite_zekromxx5566]

Nah at that point its as if you fused him and kite together like how arc v was

[@Matwolf365]

I feel like the only changes I would make would be adding striker dragon instead of linkriboh, have some more blue eyes extra deck cards and maybe Chaos Max

[@kevinearnell8619]

@Rhymestyle I think you should actually do a series where you recreate their decks using today's cards. The 2 idiots playing iconic characters with up-to-date cards. Not like a blue eyes deck or dark magician deck but a yugi Joey tea kiaba. Every character.

[@jmctrd]

And this is without all the banned cards

[@johnfairweather7012]

Kaiba really has the most flexible options. Though I feel like kaiba is also the guy to put the OG BEUD just to use bystials to get 3 blue eyes and then fusion summon the OG ultimate dragon just to flex

[@ThePhantom555]

I’m actually really curious to see what rhyme comes up with for Joey. He’s the only OG main character I haven’t built a deck around and it’s because I have no clue what he’d play. Red-Eyes? That’s more Atticus in GX, Gearfried/generic warriors? Maybe but it wouldn’t be good, Chance? Also possible but also wouldn’t be good. Maybe the updated Baby/Thousand Dragon cards? I don’t know but really curious to see Thinking about it more maybe it is a pile deck but it’s just a pile of really good cards with no true direction?

[@beasty7063]

Love how blue eyes white dragon becomes support cards for its own archetype. 🤣

[@KaiserOnCrack]

I really love the blue eye cards, but I need them to make a structure deck for it. I need the cards, but there are a bunch of UR cards

[@rhymestyle]

agreed! I bet they're waiting for the next anniversary for that

[@tylerrodgers9313]

You should make an ABC kaiba deck that would be fun to see

[@jamcivale6310]

Dragonite should have the final atk animation like dark magician does because he counts as a dark magician

[@Twoin21]

WHERE IS THE CHAOS MAX?

[@rhymestyle]

in the garbage where it belongs

[@pokestevers71]

kaiba the type to have evenly match in there

[@kennethbrommer4433]

Nah I think that with all the support blue-eyes has he would run a blue-eyes bystial deck with the bystial cards splashed in so that they support blue-eyes but blue-eyes would still be the center of the show

[@gamerxandy1701]

OK this is awesome

[@nazato1307]

I’d give a try of the A to Z Dragon Buster Cannon

[@kt_mastaru8767]

RHYMESTYLE, BUILD A "ABC DRAGON/OBELISK DECK" (it works like the kings, queen, and jack knight/slifer deck, but it's for Kaiba which is pretty cool)

[@tiredandangry2480]

I'm not knowledgeable of modern mechanics at all because I played old school yu-gi-oh and then eventually stopped paying attention to it around the time 5D's started up. It's cool to see videos like this even though I'm ignorant to how modern yu-gi-oh is played. Like I feel like I understand it a little better because it's based around a character I grew up with. Lol.

[@user-ko8vz7de2p]

I for one would like to see the strongest magician vs the strongest dragon..if its possible 😅

[@SanguineQuest]

Branded is a good call for modern Kaiba, but I think Kaiba would run some serious traps. Nix the Chaos and go with some kind of Lilith/Lair of Darkness setup? I think it'd be pretty cool if you could make that work with Blue Eyes. Maybe you could even try Fang of Critias fusions with that concept! Zeus is a solid Kaiba pick, but ain't no way he would allow Linkuribo in his deck, ever. Last note: Kaiba NEEDS some big honking Boss Blue Eyes. If you don't want to put Chaos Max in the main deck, run Ultimate Fusion. 2 Twin Burst and 1 Neo Ulimate in the Extra just feels right.

[@wqewqe2292]

I can't see Kaiba ever banishing away one of his blue eyes for bysials or chaos.

[@Dragonmatic]

Initially wasn't sure about Bystials, but thinking about it more in card lore they are past kings turned into dragons and Kaiba himself DID use Chaos *Emperor* Dragon against Yugi. Altho also do feel like what cards are used would depend on which Kaiba we are talking about, Anime Kaiba mentioned earlier does obviously always go for what is competitive, but Manga Kaiba was never shown to use stuff like CED so feel like that version would focus a bit more on Synchro Blue Eyes and generic dragon support which would lean more towards OTKs.

[@ZeothTheHedgehog]

If anything I think he would use Chaos Ruler.

[@fluttershy1234]

Only thing I'd add is he would def play maiden of eyes of blue and still the og blue eyes ultimate

[@SamuraiXKdubs]

If lubellion and bystials come up again, chaos space can search it in a chaos deck,

[@Crowsinger]

A version of the Blue eyes ultimate dragon would probably be used by him.

[@CorrinQuest]

Honestly think he’d play the abc stuff, it’s pretty good

[@thedarknight307]

I made a modern Yugi Deck(had obnoxious Celtic Guardian….I was still working on the deck) but was actually able use it to stall against someone who summoned BLS:Soldier of Chaos It helped my get the W 😅

[@EricMorettin]

I bet Kaiba would also have a deck based around ABCXYZ and Bystials at some point

[@WILLPLAYINGGAMES]

Hi, Rhymestyle that was me at of the end video. I drew a bad hand man. I was trying to make A dark magician and red eyes deck. My deck does suck, i was trying some new with my dark magicians. If, I get duel again. I will be ready with a better deck. It was nice to duel against you.

[@rhymestyle]

It was fun dueling you! I dont think your deck sucks, could just use a few adjustments and make it just right!

[@chrisader8215]

I feel he’d still run some of the blue eyes fusions

[@djrican94]

Please do a Yugi Muto MODERN deck. (Not Yami) Really wanna see this one!

[@714deadpixels1]

allure does not need to be banned just cause its not a minus for specific decks. they might seems strong but more meta decks and hand traps are in play and can easily neg whatever + you get

[@RollinsFN]

We ain't on Kash meta. This is cute cat meta, and I'm loving it...I'm gonna cry when Ariseheart releases.

[@devilchris5628]

I liked this deck👍🏼

[@mike17701]

Rhym I'm speaking in friendly banter way seereax would find a way to crush your modern kaiba deck with a modern dark magician/yugi pharo deck and I would love to see a three idiots kaiba yugi joey face off. I love how you built both the yugi and kaiba decks they both fit very well

[@ultraomenmurat9937]

Kaiba is probably the only person i can see still using monster reborn

[@delusional_rain]

Dino and comment section. I hope you guys and gals enjoyed your day/evening:)

[@allelujah1210]

I feel like he would still use chaos max, he likes a beat down with a blue eyes so him knowing that they can't use defense against him would be his style

[@VisheshPratapSingh]

Dino i got a question to ask for you as you are the most knowledgeable about these things out of the three idiots what does dions ultra ego transformation do like your ultra instinct has no stamina consumption and doto's beast has crazy stamina and ki recovery what does ultra ego do? Because it would be crazy if you could give something like Recoomes pose which gives type of super Armor which stops you from leaning back but you will still receive damage??

[@diablo_exp9296]

I love running into other dark magician players with bystials at that point it comes done too , if i use rod/circle will i get negated then its whoever has more bystials in their hand gets the lead lol

[@Jigundus]

Kaiba would absolutely be a D-link player who somehow tries to fit a blue eyes package in there. He would play the two chaos twin dragons for sure which is the main thing I feel is missing from this.

[@darianmoye6558]

Kaiba would def run a dragon link floodgate deck with blues eyes support.

[@johnalexander5930]

Kaiba would for sure play the abc dragon package

[@johnalexander5930]

The modern xyz cards

[@sadbxi0357]

Man put Zeus on the thumbnail I'm sick😂😂😂

[@Animeguy347]

You guys should try the Seto Kaiba mod for xenoverse from thatguyfrombehind!!!

[@cyrusgraves.1858]

Probably wouldn't have run Linkuriboh and would run Striker Dragon instead since Kuriboh's a Yugi card. Dingirsu, though is a good generic lv 8 thing, I don't really see him playing and Zues is like 50/50. He'd probably have commissioned a blue-eyes version first if we're being honest. The chaos stuff was an interesting addition and I agree it's possible, but technically can also be considered a Yugi thing to some extent (much less so than Kuriboh however, whiich is why I think it's possible)

[@bradygoldsberry7303]

I am pretty confident that Kaiba would still play his Ultimate BE or Neo Ultimate BE.

[@FunAtStreaming]

i'm not that familiar with modern yugioh but imo Yugi would play a mix of Dark Magician and Black Luster Soldier theme. Kaiba on the other hand obviously would play blue eyes and i think he either mixes it with the whole ABC stuff or goes full on Dragons. Joey would simplay play Red Eyes and pushing his odds with all kind of luck cards like coin flip, dice toss and other minigames. Weevil and Rex could play modern insect/dinosaur decks using all the modern support and hope to get a win or two... I would LOVE to see modern Toon/Thousandeye mix for Pegasus! Also remember Marik would not play a Ra themed deck because in the future Marik doesn't got Ra anymore. This could be a great chance to try for playing stall/burn in modern YGO?

[@adriangarten2146]

So i am not to invested these days in YuGiOh but what about Dragonrulers & Blueeyes deck? If The rulers are still usable.😅

[@AloneTheorist]

He'd probably play mysterion the dragon clown and have peten the dark clown to act as a guaranteed fusion material. Cause kaiba wouldn't waste something as valuable as a tuner for a fusion summon. He'd probably also play saryuja skull dread and world legacy awakens as a battle phase combo.

[@nastalgiahood]

Do esper next with psychics

[@austinwood874]

Mound of the bound would help chaos angel because it protects lv. 10 monsters then you need to protect mound with negates.

[@brickbreaker3]

I'm curious, how come you keep putting your chaos synchro monsters in defense mode? Wouldn't it be better to put them in attack mode?
