[@premejon8300]

When Books, Kaijus and MST's are format staples, yugioh is at PEAK level. Glad you said it!

[@Saixjacket]

Yessir, I am fully on the 3 book in the main gang. It’s so nice

[@REDDAWNproject]

The only way it can get more based is Enemy Controller, and somehow spirit reaper, my beloved.

[@MegaMania91]

@@REDDAWNprojectenemy controller should be a staple. There’s nothing like taking an opponents xyz monster and then making a Zeus over it.

[@BK-wl6hy]

You clearly dont Play on a competetive Level if you think we are at peak yugioh lmao

[@esrohm6460]

I hecking love that book of moon is played. That's one of the coolest utility cards to see play

While I agree with Josh's take on backrow removal, the only reason I run it is so I don't autolose to floodgates.

[@DarkAuraLord]

I find that take on backrow removal to be really strange considering that the formats where people maindeck backrow hate tend to be shit like Mystic Mine turbo or floodgate spam. I get where he's coming from in regards about *this* format specifically, as even outside of floodgate decks, there are decks with valid targets for backrow removal, I just don't know if I'd agree that it applies universally. When I think of people maindecking backrow hate, I don't think of a diverse and healthy format, I think of Mystic Mine being legal lol.

depend if u'r in USA yes but not in EU

[@ytdmongod]

The face he makes when he mentions exosister 😂 he should be talking about Steven taking 2 dubs towards well known players

[@rustinpeece06]

I dunno why he’s so salty about Exosisters. That video was super cringe.

[@ytdmongod]

@@rustinpeece06 frfr its just them getting big headed i even saw something from pak today said he wouldnt play calamity in mannadium because he is a good player but plays runick the comments sometimes are mad weird.

[@eleonarcrimson858]

i mean is it surprising that people hate exosister?

[@rustinpeece06]

@@eleonarcrimson858I'm commenting on the fact that he was just a cunt about it.

How do you use book of moon vs purrely? Which monster do you flip FD

[@Manifest_Destiny568]

Black cat is a HOPT, one of the good places to interrupt. If they get a rank 2 to 5 mat you could book it before they can make noir.

[@WitchVulgar]

Whatever they're gonna use with Leap to get into Noir is probably best

In the words of the msn himself: his deck is "like that" like that

[@Blaze302]

when the top players test against each other aint that a disadvantages giving away all the info about your deck? i mean i guess top players know a lot about the game but you got dudes that dont even know what rikka does so idk, maybe im just overthinking it.

[@usirup]

they need other players at their skill level to test with and there's not exactly easy pickings for that. you're sort of right in that it might lead to bad groupthink if it stays too much inside the testing circle but they have to test somewhere and surely the guu stays within the circle.

[@MrPyroguy108]

honestly by the time you're more than a few rounds into the tourney, and definitely when you make it to day 2 or have a feature, everyone will already know what you're on. better to get good practice than to try and be more secretive for an advantage that only lasts a few hours

[@AstorThalis]

It's not like the chances are that big that you play against them early in a YCS-level tournament. And if it happens it's not that much of a disadvantage as you are also knowing what your opponent is playing.

[@thezestylime0989]

rikka kaijus your monsters and gets to search 2 with one. I hate it.

[@neogalactic1195]

Honestly unless you have some spicy techs in your main deck, most of the top tier decks are pretty figured out and only have slight significant variance between deck list. So practicing against other top level players isn't an issue as mostly everyone knows what to expect for the main deck. It is the side deck that you keep hidden from other players really when you're practicing against them.
