RYZEAL - Ten Minute Testing

THE RHYZLER!!

[@7thHourFilms]

THAT'S THE GODDAMN RHYZLER BUILDING!!

[@Gixel_]

Not running the trap is certainly a choice. The deck appreciates a third search for Duodrive yes but MORE IMPORTANTLY Plug-In needs a target to equip from deck. Equipping Plasma Hole means you can XYZ summon on their turn, in hands with more extension this can turn into a reactive XYZ on their turn, this acts as a way to make the Ryzeal board FAR more layered and less 2-dimensional. You are doing a lot of guess work without the trap for who to go for, options like Dweller become really hard to use game 1 without info on who you are fighting. It also allows you to remake Detonator if they have the out for him. For example, at 10:24 you could have instead sent Duodrive with Node to bring back a Ryzeal, made Detonator, DON'T draw, and then set Plug. On their turn this gives you the ability to comfortably flex between a lot. You won that fame cause of a Nibiru play, but if played well you could've gotten through with far worse luck on the engine, and with the ability to play through a lot more blow-out board breakers. Also it's in the thumbnail come ON

Hand traps used to be ok when your could only play like 6 of them total...... but the fact that one card combos have made it so over half your deck can be just different ways to tell your opponent "No" is getting ridiculous.

[@r3zaful]

konami is succesful in ocg on trying to stop these handtraps overload, ryzeal is weak against board breaker and floodgate, but simply unstoppable vs whatever handtraps you have. you want to bring board breaker and stuff like d barrier against ryzeal you want to bring handtraps against snake eyes azamina and so on. if you dont like the direction then there is nothing i can say.

[@TheProgenitor]

Instead of ending on duodrive and detonator you can end on detonator and a stray level 4 body. That way if they are on ultimate slayer, you can chain plug in to the slayer, summoning another level 4 and attaching plasma hole from deck. Detonator gets shuffled, which sends the plasma hole to GY, which you can then immediately banish to just...remake the detonator.

[@rei_lyy]

this is a standard ryzeal list, if you think people are going to be doing anything interesting with this deck from the average list you are very very very very wrong

[@munchrai6396]

That is the best part about Ryzeal. Its incredibly high flexibility can lead to a lot of versatility, just not in a format where you need to run as many handtraps as possible. Been playing around with them in Time Thieves, as Plug In is easily the best way to get a trap under Redoer

[@LunaDachi]

You can look at any results from the OCG, and this is what the topping builds look like. RoTK said there was like one Toy Ryzeal that topped in the past two weeks, with all the rest being pure. Sauceless is just the most effective way to play the deck it seems, can't really fault him for showing off the version you should expect to see most often. That's really the point of the meta TMTs I do agree its unbearably lame from a gameplay and deckbuilding standpoint, cause the only "interesting" things in the different "builds" I've seen are some people running Seventh Tachyon + Masquerade as replacement bonfires since its limited there, and flex slots in the ED choosing between Ragnazero, Bagooska, Malevolent Sin, and the previously mentioned Masquerade

[@dhanyl2725]

​​​​@@LunaDachiThe most competitive way to play has always been as little consistent archetypal stuffs as possible and as many generic stuffs as possible (whether they're powerful traps back in the day, hand traps, and/or board breakers) Yes it drains all fun from the deck, but if you prioritize fun deck building you wouldn't be topping

[@SparkSJH1]

This is basically just Zoodiac and MBT consistently creams himself over how epic and skill intensive zoo formats are lol

[@EmersonCRVG]

I also don't get it. And I bet that he will love Maliss.. that is just another shift deck that spams links...

[@munchrai6396]

I do love Ryzeal Plug-in for being easily the best way to put a trap under Time Thief Redoer. Was playing the two archetypes together and its incredible how much gas this archetype gives to any existing Ran 4 archetype. Now we just need a format where half your deck doesn't have to be board breakers and handtraps

[@Heroism4499]

Now that decks are designed to have the same 15-20 none engine and 15-25 engine pieces; what is the best deck mash up? Like how many keywords can we shove in a deck profile title before it buckles under its own weight?

[@Freebird1994]

This deck really is just the confluence of every design mistake. Every other game you’ll open 1 name + 4 non-engine and look at your opponent like “I didn’t even go yet and I’m already at 4 negates”

[@alexbaccaro8578]

The deck isn't the issue, it's the format Ryzeal in the ocg is playing like half the number of hand traps The deck is actually healthily designed because filling your deck with 20 hand traps isn't the right answer for it

[@marvynjeanbaptiste3206]

@@alexbaccaro8578this. I don’t get why people would rather fill the deck with 20 HTs. I have a centurion build that can still run 15-18 hts

[@chaotixthefox]

​@@alexbaccaro8578That's because 20 HTs are no longer necessary in the OCG. Previous formats Ryzeal was indeed on 20+ non-engine and so was everything else. TCG is still in that phase.

[@milto2269]

​@alexbaccaro8578 In a way, yes you are right. But at the same time, an engine being this good and having this many non-engine slots isn't fun. I mean even if they replace hand traps with breakers, it isn't fun getting the Tenpai experience and getting "board broken" to death.

[@base64man89]

she ry on my zeal until i deadnader

[@Chris-rn2dm]

I'm gonna play devils advocate and say i actually like the deck. A big thing i like is the redundancy on all the cards acting both as starters and extenders separately which i think is really neat and interesting. Problems are no other engine plays too well with it currently and the amount of main deck cards the deck wants to play is limited so it ends up being hand trap turbo. I think the boss is cool and interesting but the deck does lack options for diverse endboards. The deck feels like it would be really cool once it gets its second wave but the problem is the first wave was already too good. Overall i like the direction of decks being consistently able to play through 2 handtraps or boardbreak and still make a decent board it makes the game more fun and interesting than the garnet fests that die to 1 interactions the game used to be rife with.
