I am so glad that it says "the turn it was set" instead of "from your hand". It would be so frustrating if they were just quick play spells but the fact you have to set them means they're telegraphed enough that your opponent has options ijstead of them being jumpscares.

[@alfian4653]

But you can just set a random spell and mindgame them

A couple elements of this that I really like are how the arrows of the links are set up so that one benefits from the main deck effect before being banished and the other after, also if build around using the field spell to otk trap trick becomes an interesting/funny tool for the deck where the banish is an upside but you want to resolve as mush as you can on that chain to avoid being locked out of other traps

Really cool archetype and theme. To me it feels like an inbetween of Lab and Tenpai, but in the good way.

[@kirbyale7948]

This new theme has very interesting effects, but some of these makes me a bit worried. This archetype has consistency tools that can't be ashed since they banish and set from deck, and the traps make so that the monsters can dodge imperm/veiler. These kinds of effects are not unheard of, but I fear that future themes will follow and they will become more common, and at one point ash and impermanence won't be viable anymore or even powercrept...

GWC is actually used for the OTK line. In Battle Phase, You attack with 2500, banish 1 body on board. Use GWC and banish the link 3 and summon another body back. The link 3 summon itself back with 5k and you also now have another body to attack for lethal. The deck is more focused on going second instead of going first.

[@mrharvy100]

Here is an idea: TCG stops doing the asinine shared clock timer. Everyone has their own timer so the whole “scam time for win” factor gets thrown out the window.

[@theimpostorafungus1213]

How exactly would they calculate that making up for thinking time on the opponent's turn? Do you want there to be a chess timer that each person presses when their opponent is thinking? That would never work in a game with handtraps and - fuck it - even just regular traps in it.

[@peterzelaya9948]

Yeah. Master duel is the only format that does this. I don't see that changing. Ever.

[@ApollousasBear]

No way they make a Link 1 that adds the fieldspell when the Link 3 already only has 1 target.

[@ViperTCG]

I love how the 2 traps he didn’t like are the two that you use the most XD the code GWC with the new link is one of the key cards for interaction on your opponents turn.

[@nightknight498]

I think we need to differentiate a little between what it actually means to be a "Shifter Deck". You have decks that don't care about their own GY, like Floo and Exosister. They play Shifter because it doesn't hinder their own gameplan, so there's no reason not to in a GY centered format. There's not really a cost attached for them, so they are your typical Shifter Decks that kind of coined the term. Malice if anything is an Anti Shifter Deck. You still want to use the GY for generic Cyberse climbing, but you also don't mind being under Shifter. So while you're still on a mostly GY centered deck, Malice as an engine turns Shifter into a liability for your opponent. You'd rather not run Shifter yourself though probably, but as long as the rest of the format dies to it, it's a sacrifice you kind of have to make if your basic lines under Shifter are enough. It's the same with Ritual Beasts currently, Shifter means you sacrifice Nochi access, so you're more vulnerable to targeting and Nib, but on top of winning 90% of matchups it also protects from Veiler and Droll, so it's a necessary evil. There's a difference between playing Shifter because you can, playing Shifter because you have to, and just having the ability to play under Shifter. I like the way Malice is designed, if we have enough decks like this around, Shifter will finally end up in the Side Deck where it belongs.

[@theimpostorafungus1213]

This deck seems really cool on the surface. A link based control deck with a variety of interesting traps and a pretty solid boss monster. However it suffers from the fact that it cannot make that boss monster without sacrificing the trap and vice versa. The deck can shoot firewalls out the wazoo but it's own boss monster is impossible to reach without using up White Rabbit's 1 trap search per turn. I have to agree with Josh that this deck would be really cool if it wasn't Cyberse. Id even be willing to put up with secret village just for this deck to be better at doing it's own thing. It's not like the deck needs splash mage since Haggard Lizardose exists now, functionally being a splash mage for this theme specifically.
