But bro, it’s the ultimate wizard in atk and def. it is once said that you can just normal summon it without tribute fodder 👀👀

[@Ruxin34]

So the legend is true??

[@benjaminvalencia1017]

And it can attack your life points directly

[@2FINE4YOUBABYGIRL]

And it gets a field power bonus at night

[@TeamAPS]

Big mistake. Big win, though.

[@Ruxin34]

At least the cards look nice

[@juliandominguez4866]

It wasn't all bad though, Dark magician is my favorite deck.

[@lamp6909]

@@juliandominguez4866 unfortunately this “competitive, meta” dark magician deck isn’t that

[@lieusden6365]

-.-

[@Intrepid_Explorer]

With no Monsters left on the field, I summon Dark Magician and declare a Direct Attack.

[@Ruxin34]

Best commercial ever

[@TheArchfiendGuy]

TOLD you I was the master

[@TheGamestars]

Yes that terraforming is playable in tourneys without issue. The konami policy documents addresses even worse missprints (name completely gone), etc

[@Ruxin34]

TY!

[@marcosluna4282]

Time to spend some $$$ on a HERO deck next! Those ultimate rare cosmic cyclones look soo good!

[@Ruxin34]

I was thinking about that…

[@oldskullgccitalia2833]

How is this supposed to be meta when it has no Dark Sage, no Sorcerer of Dark Magic, no Dark Magician Knight? You wasted 4k bucks man

[@Ruxin34]

And no Skull Servant!

[@RyanAtlus]

Solid decklist, seems familiar. ;) I've been playtesting different things since that event and I'm actually feeling more confident about my current build, but this one is still an excellent starting point. Hope you have a lot of fun with it.

[@Ruxin34]

I Appreciate it😎 I like how unique this one is, not just straight DM!

[@reygartv9184]

Hey ruxin, I have a question for you, can you tell me how I can make the new cards I get to not bend when I open the packs?I mean the Commons cards remain normal but the super, ultra, golden, etc. get bend after few hours(I tink is because of the temperature in the room)

[@floridamankyle5461]

And Here I am spending $18 on the Alt Art Winged Dragon of Ra and thinking that was a lot, Ruxin has me getting on TCG everyday looking for the cards in my childhood deck, and getting the ones I couldnt get back in the day, I have a new addiction, thanks Ruxin, lol.

[@shadowofthemoon8766]

If you thought this was expensive, try paying for MTG cards XD

[@sadwilddogs783]

I really like these videos! Watching the deck getting built is fun. Would be cool to see you duel with this or the Blue Eyes Deck

[@user-vz3cn8eh8c]

Do you usually keep cards that are slightly damaged or return them to the seller?

[@loutec9891]

Which sleeves are you using for the deck? The clear ones

[@marcobotha02]

Haven't watched it through yet, but calling that rux will analyse the cards with his collectors brain again! And not player brain🤣

[@kevinodinson]

Its up to judges discretion but the general rule of thumb with damaged cards. As long as u can still "read" the effect and can at least make out the card name u can play it. Foreign cards u have to have the english translation on hand

[@10easilyamused]

Saw a dude on tiktok who set his entire deck as not English so his opponent is less likely to search what everything does 💀

[@therealsilentHIL411]

You know, with all the pack openings Ruxin does you would think he can just make any deck he wants

[@dpham8907]

We're definitely going to need to see some live duels at your locals with this deck!! Also, the amount of hesitance when you give the deck to your opponent to cut xD

[@yerboipatterson4066]

Whats the elder entity nyss for is she viable in the current meta and how does she fit with dm's

[@nathanellis6218]

Do you have any extra numbers cards

[@damiano_barbato]

I'm not into meta but I would like to watch you sometimes dueling with this deck and the blue eyes deck

[@Melffy_X]

At 9.02 there ist a Bend or is it an Illusionen?

[@GrimAdventurez]

Good looking deck man, would definitely consider returning some of those "near mints" lol

[@danklek4889]

So are yoing to replace magians souls with the reprints ? But honestly with most cards that aren't valuable, there isn't really nothing to bother with when it comes to condition when it looks good from the front since it doesn't really matter when you play and use deck sleeves.

[@yannickostermeier]

Hi, I just found my old cards and im wondering what its worth but when i watch ebay i don't really find something like that i have. I have 2 blue-eyes white dragons 1st edition but the are played.. what would they be worth in pretty bad condition? Some one would like to take some time and watch my cards with me. Im from the netherlands but iff you can talk english its fine

[@grayzonenews5494]

I always watch these videos to decompress thanks man

[@AlexanderMichael87]

Very excited that you're finally getting into competitive Yugioh. It's so much fun if you can keep up monetarily with the meta or just have fun in the mid tier. I'm also glad you're doing this because that'll mean you actually know what you're talking about when you say a card is good or not XD.

[@Ruxin34]

HAHAHA true it should help there😂

[@kuyagoldlink7563]

I love how you have different shirts for the different packages!! 😆

[@xdHyperz]

Question, is there a reason people dont like to run Dm the dragon knight in decks like these? Imo its one of the best ones if you already have at least 1 negate on ur field so u dont have to waste it on protecting a spell/trap

[@ChrisCaine]

I can tell you put alot of thought into your deck so I actually don't know what to tell you. I just really like it!

[@another1397]

I've got cards that's been sleeved or in a binder since 96, that's all the print dates. How would a non collector go by getting them graded and priced.

[@brandonsoto2403]

Hey Ruxin that Kagari looks bent. I saw a line going across the the bottom there and idk if that is normal or if the card is actually bent.

[@roarkepartridge1991]

Awesome deck and love seeing some of the mac rarities of the cards to

[@justinp.4758]

Really nice Video, I love that deck and my favorite Cardbis actually El Shaddoll Winda (I just love Shaddoll). And I wouldn't change anything from your Deck 👌

[@BANlKS]

do people play with the expensive 1st edition cards to be a baller and de value the condition? or do you just collect the 1st editions and then play with the 2nd edition card cheap cards??

[@nicks3240]

On my 15 min work break but you know I got to check out that new video!

[@grmthmpsn]

Those ghost rare Dark Magicians look so epic. Fav card here has to be Droll and Lock, I just love the artwork and looks great as an Ulti

[@turquoi8274]

We're do you buy all of it

[@cjbeaudry8325]

I do really like dark magican trying to build a eygiption god deck that has a dark magician engine.

[@darkiplier3502]

That’s much worse lmao

[@gokusensei0076]

I run dark magician tenyi I top at my locals or second place with it

[@CardFox37]

Very nice man! I would've added a couple copies of Magician's Navigation to the deck and skipped out on the Dogmatica.

[@surfnskatedude0]

Ruxin, what do you think of the mass amounts of misprints coming out of max gold El Durado?

[@nisfornoble4861]

I think Konami needs to get their shit together by not printing ass quality that people pay for it's a disservice.

[@kevin.c1126]

magician's rod is such a cool card. the artwork is crazy!

[@radovanokilj9696]

Awesome video my man and it is nice deck not so bad as I think my man and those droll lock bird are fire bro

[@PKMNmasterJuice]

Insane purchases! I use the DM deck and yep looks solid.

[@BLZRDD]

Super slick and clean tho, bro bro! 😎

[@johannesstorck8601]

Magician souls is just the greatest card for every spellcaster related strategie, I need 3 for my endymion deck and might be able to get them now!

[@d_tony]

pend best deck lets gooooo

[@TheDasErdinger]

Busted in SPYRAL until they banned Master Plan.

[@tj1106]

The " The Dark Magicians " not a good card for the deck? I wanted to pick this card up as a collector ( I dont play - I just buy cool looking cards for collection ) but its like $100. I didnt see this card in your video, wondering why its so expensive if not played?

[@felixro5884]

Cards are considered playable if 2 out of 3 of the "important" parts are visible and not altered. These parts are: Name, Picture, Cardtext. Also for that Terraforming, I see those all the time like that.

[@yungcobalt]

would love to see more deck profiles

[@yugiohBXR]

Sometimes I get a card from TCGplayer at “near mint” with an obvious corner ding and not sure if I can complain and return.

[@johnthetactician]

Always complain because you didn't get what you paid for; if they give crap, give them a 1 star review and contact support

[@WillTNFmusic]

Awesome stuff! Those ghost rare dark magicians are so beautiful!

[@christinetran4114]

Hey Ruxin! Love the video/channel like always! Keep it up stay safe hope you reach 150K subscribers and have an amazing day! 😁👍

[@ritchiefails8234]

Now you have to have a video of your blue eyes vs dark magician deck!

[@rjtothed3794]

the ultimate cosmic cyclones are so good looking, that's some attractive cardboard you have there

[@Billy_Wyatt]

Most of those cards will definitely hold their value. Great choices you have made Ruxin.

[@southparkgangsta100]

Some of those conditions are borderline disrespectful 😂

[@Twofirmfeet1024]

“Buy the singles” But literally nothing beats having a card you want *PACK FRESH.*

[@cameronblake2003]

My favourite card of the deck is definitely the Magicians' Rod, such nice artwork.

[@calebajudd]

The nicest and most expensive deck on the market that still struggles in comp. Haha but awesome video again dude the deck looks awesome!!

[@LOZA-DM]

Lemme jus say its SUCH a relief to see someone build a decent Dark Magician Decklist! The ghost DMs had me on the floor lmaoooo thats so epik bro Thank you for basing the list of Ryans. He's a fellow DM king and im so glad he is getting recognition for the build.

[@Ruxin34]

It was a really cool, so it was exciting to put together a similar one!

[@loganweirich1928]

The ghost rare dark magicians are definitely my favorites in the deck. I got the gold secret rares in my deck but I’ll eventually get the ghosts

[@TheoJay615]

With no monsters left on the left on the field, I summon Dark magician and declare a direct attack.

[@awknerdy]

Wait which set is Red Eyes Dark Dragoon being reprinted in?

[@mattc4893]

Brothers of legend but it's starlight rare

[@egycollector]

Interesting deck Ruxin. The UTR "Sky Striker Ace - Kagari" is my favorite card in the deck

[@TheArchfiendGuy]

It would have been awesome if your Dark Magician art choices were the Bandai one and the Red Dark Magician. Those are probably my favourite

[@jbrown465]

I love dark magician. I'm no professional, but I rock a dark magician and exodia incarnate/obliterate deck and have a lot of fun with it!

[@Mr.Jasaw13]

Cosmic Cyclone looks so good,also the galaxy cyclone or what's it called. Really love to see that card in ultimate rarity.

[@maccamayer06]

Now let's see some duels with the Deck!

[@miguelmoya7167]

Favorite card is definitely Magician's Souls. I'll wait for the reprint on it before I get my hands on one. 2nd Place goes to Cosmic Cyclone. I've been getting burned by it on Duel Links so it has my respect.

[@Ruxin34]

It is NICE in Duel Links

[@jasonalderete6054]

Cool deck! I enjoy the artworks of magical circle and dark magician girl but man those dark magicians don’t look sick!

[@joeycrosby167]

What I'd do: Sell everything. Build Cyberdark/Cyber Dragon and use the rest to build a MTG deck

[@BarbaricUmbra]

I've seen a ulti terraforming at my locals with similar name wear. with it being the same card and rarity I would recommend looking into it. either a huge coincidence or possibly "hopefully" a factory missprint. also to answer your question, it is legal to play in tourneys

[@Ruxin34]

Ty sir!

[@fudabi7850]

Daaang I thought ruxin only did Pokémon openings and that was all. Cool deck bro

[@wisedigitaldesigns1193]

Awesome deck profile! Definitely a huge budget hit, but so cool!

[@heyitsthatdude17]

Favorite card is easily Dark Magician, just since I'm such a Yugiboomer. The SDY art is my personal favorite, just cause it looks like the anime.

[@matthewreinking7853]

Cosmic cyclones and those 2 dark magicians look so cool!

[@javarisjamarjavarisonlamar4637]

Now we need more like this

[@AlxDayken]

Alot of big cards in there , no wonder the price is so high :p Good stuff ruxin

[@drewdavid18]

I would add premium gold rare raigeki! Those premium golds are gorgeous! Love the extra gloss layer, makes it feel more durable!

[@th3gl4di4tor4]

I love these ulti Droll & Lock Bird, is it just a beautiful looking card and also really good competitive.

[@Skyrimlizard]

Eternal soul- “destroy all monsters you control “

[@slickone1100]

gl on the pull tomorrow

[@LouisBlogs]

WOW!!! That's a lot of money!! 💰💰💰 The rarities do look really nice and I agree with the justification for the Staples being a high rarity.

[@orlandomontana4770]

The droll and lock bird look so cool

[@scottversoi4727]

The secret village of the spellcasters is an amazing card. To bad it looked so beat up

[@cousinmartin]

Nice vid Ruxin! I'm a Blue-Eyes player myself, so for favourite card I would say skill drain since I run that myself. Absolutely unfair to get out 3000 Blue-Eye beaters while oppenent can't activate effects haha. $4000 is a lot though...not surpising considering YGO prices, but if you are able to spend it have fun haha. From personal experience, TrollandToad has better record for quality control, cards are usually NM when listed as such.

[@michaelbevan1081]

Agreed

[@inkthebrigand9462]

Those Ulti Cyclones look sooooooooooooooooooooo good

[@johnamielobediencia2593]

I know that how painful buying cards that are hard to find & expensive but looking all the cards for the dark magician deck was pretty solid

[@fabiown689]

Oh man you really gotta pray for these cards hold the value for a long time

[@stiller4657]

The red eyes fusion looks amazing

[@TK69392]

Great video and deck! 🤟🏻

[@ageofmich]

the ulti cyclones locked really sick

[@wioshirakiin]

When I read the title my first thought was "oh no..." I mean, it could be meta if you take out everything DM related and just make it Sky Striker lol. Very pretty deck for fun play tho. Btw you can play cards if part of the name is missing. As long as the effect text can be read, any card condition is fine

[@nathanwalpole8149]

I do like those magicians rod and cosmic cyclones!

[@steffenbrick3996]

@ruxin when are you gonna play on team samurais duel night you would smash also epic deck

[@austinfair23]

sweet deck man, looks awesome

[@jeremynolan8090]

Oof I like the dedication tho and at least you got cool prints of the cards!

[@1rmfrk]

I believe the next thing to be added would be a YCS title followed by the obligatory YCS crown and sceptre

[@DeathLacooda]

Now you can play the deck. Unsleeved

[@sp1derbites]

Missing ink like the name of that ult you bought is listed as Heavy played per Tcgplayer standard guidelines.

[@WarriorofZero]

The reprint for Souls def hurts the investment, but honestly I’d still say it was worth it. It’s a great card not just for DM, but a lot of Spellcaster decks in general. Also those ulti Cosmic Cyclones look amazing!

[@kalmisgod]

the cosmic cyclones are so nice! definitely a favourite
