I'd like to think Joseph took up cello lessons again around the subathon just to do this TMT.

[@TofuofLight]

At first i was gonna doubt this comment by saying “he really bought a cello and look up lessons for a 5 second bit.” But then i realized who i was watching so it checks out

[@tanklett]

When was the subathon?

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

This kinda feels like a "passing of the torch". Years ago it was "Orcust full combo" being splashed into everything, and now it is Horus (with the Bystials guest starring)

[@galaxyvulture6649]

If they everbring back mermaid I would cry so badly since that was so toxic. The amount of negates you could get was ridiculous and with better cards it would be morr annoying.

[@antman7673]

@@galaxyvulture6649 Harp alone is a big step. -Maybe mermaid can come back in 5-10 years. Depending how the power creep goes.

[@jayman445]

Ehhh no. Horus is only really ran with low rouge decks. It’s not splashed into a majority of meta decks like orcust was

[@andrewfirth9858]

they basically remade knightmare mermaid with the fiendsmith stuff :(

[@RenSako]

@@jayman445This aged poorly

[@tootsie_]

I wondered for a second why MBT was reading out the Orcust effects like they were some brand new shitter strategy when this was a tier 1 meta deck but then i realized the last time this archetype was playable was like almost 4 years ago.

[@Lulu-dc4zq]

The banlists was on 2020 my friend, I don't know how you count your years, but that is not the human metric I tell ya. Orcust was the strongest at the January 2020 banlists as it was then where people started tinkering with orcust sky, the strongest version for the deck. So dunno how "the last time it was playable it was like 6 years ago" ever came from.

[@tootsie_]

I thought it was late 2019 and I felt it was kinda falling out of favor but I'll edit my comment to say 4 😅

YESSSS MEGALOVANIA IS BACK!!!

[@KingRoni1222]

Rise, orcust sweepers! RISE! I BID THEE! Rise from your graves of brass and string! Relinquish yourselves of the chains of the yard and summon forth your brethren! Return to the deck from whence ye came and bring upon us the grand crescendo! Bystials be damned as we march forth to harken a new age of strife!

[@BoBnfishy]

It's wild that Armageddon Knight is still practically an auto include in dark decks

[@Ragnarok540]

Orcust has been a fun option in a few master duel events, but in the current format it feels really underpowered, even with three harp horror in the MD banlist.

[@TheJiminatorHS]

great job on the trumpet!

[@zacharypayne2903]

The opening....that was the first few notes of Megalovania you sneaky bastard!

[@RayquaSr.]

Always has been.

[@TheBaldingPied]

I'm gonna be real i totaly forgot photon lord had effects that weren't dependent on having photon/galaxy as material lmaoo. I don't think i've ever used the negate without detatching a galaxy.

[@forgeree]

thats pretty much only you, its been a staple for any rank 8 deck for a minute

[@PIetroPortugal]

The Longirsu comparison closing the video did it for me.

[@cashcloakburmy]

I am SO sorry about that best of 3, crowing the imsety was the worst decision I’ve made in my life

[@RedRune9]

It happens to the best of us

[@shen.daniel]

Damn, that introduction made me realize mbt wasn't even making all the ussy jokes before harp got banned. It really has been this long huh

[@honeyham6788]

honestly, it makes me annoyed that orcust look so long to get unbanned. if they had come off the list a year ago i think orcust could really have slotted well

[@DKODA97]

Last time it did anything in OCG was nearly 3 years ago... Its just not what it used to be. Mermaid made the deck busted and splashable, searchable engine...

[@fieldoflettuce7091]

Could've come back some time in 2021 when they started lifting restriction on the other TOSS format decks and the deck would've been fine. Instead Konami TCG decided for whatever reason it should rot on the list for almost 4 years... Ridiculous, Orcust felt like it was gonna be one of those archetypes like Infernity where it has cards on the list for years when the deck wouldn't have done anything for a while.

[@DKODA97]

@@fieldoflettuce7091 that format was Fair, they could've kept it untouched and newer decks wouldve started to dominate on their own accord... But we all know Konami is just a cash grab.

[@EnemyMango]

That poor harp will get eaten alive when he first squares up with the bystials and modern yugioh.

[@rinpg3333]

You know the engine is bad when even I don't wanna brew orcust with it

[@DeathMetalDuelist666]

People keep trying to run orcust cards like an engine when it should be run as a deck (I have been testing this deck since harps ban). Horus runic orcust or Horus scrap orcust is the wave

[@darksphere4679]

do you think theres any way to bring back the old Orcust Lunalight strategy in any capacity now? or is that still dead in the water

[@go2it566]

Remember when harp horror went to 2 in Md and then 3 and still nobody cared? I remember that

[@dearickangelonej.legaspi6686]

As someone who played Orcust in Master Duel at "full" power I'd say its not the best but in a sealed or a day to day friend group duel its one of the more fun decks with lots of interactions and vulnerabilities so more "hype" moments can happen

[@larhyperhair]

[@JPitt1070]

🙏🏻 Dear god please don’t let Orcust ever be meta again so I don’t have to hear MBT say Babel wrong

[@imth3nutr8ntyt97]

Babel is pronounced Bay-Bell, not Bah-Bal. The pronunciation coming from the tower of babel. I think he's saying it correctly, but he probably said it both ways in the video.

[@Smeik2901]

​@@imth3nutr8ntyt97 Babel is obviously a reference to the biblic verse about the tower of babylon and theoretically in hebrew Babel or בבל is prounced Ba-behl.

[@marque_iii]

I like how he never forgets the U in "OrcUHst"

[@Deadzme]

I took Horus Orcust to locals last night and went 4-0. I’m still iffy on adding the bystial engine

[@shine-ub6eb]

God, how much I miss this deck. And now all they need to do unban Colossus and we got all 4 decks out

[@TaylorLeprechaun]

"did you miss us?" Yes. Yes I did

[@Rain593]

I think Orcust will find a home as a Runick variant.

[@samarlow3497]

Seems fun, but conflicting field spells plus locking yourself to dark on the opponents turn seems kinda annoying.

[@duelme1234]

I suggest watching Joshua Schidmt's vod on testing the new format and the part where he explains the problems of the deck.

[@Rain593]

@@duelme1234 i saw it. Honestly with how tcg players are someone is gonna find some nutty combo that'll make Orcust viable. I've seen Orcust Tear being talked about too.

[@zigzag321go]

Scheiren+orcust is probably full combo.

[@DKODA97]

​@@Rain593 I could see that if Mermaid was unbanned, but its not a searchable consistent extra combo for decks anymore, and there are much Better Midrange Strategies. I could see a small engine in a Tear Deck, but Honestly, it seem like it would be awful draws...

Just for that's sans theme intro you my friend have earned a like and a subscriber

I don’t think this deck is super amazing but because it’s so loved I feel like it will get a top here and there.

[@codycarney2311]

I'm glad to see the music demon boi free again.

[@holmborn]

Crazy how Ib doesnt earn a spot in Orcust

[@astercat49]

For some reason Orcust doesn’t have any “World Legacy” cards, besides World Wand, that you’d want to search. However, Lib at least is an integral part of the Scrap engine if you play that Orcust variant.

[@gubigubigubigubi]

She does if Knightmare Mermaid gets unbanned. But without having the generic way to bridge the archetypes theres really not much between them.

[@animationtv426]

World legacy succession ​@@astercat49

[@ashikjaman1940]

Sadly Girsu functionally can't become a Tuner on your first turn and the only other Orcust Tuner is Brass Bombard. Also adding another garnet seems wack lol

[@gubigubigubigubi]

@@ashikjaman1940 Its actually not too hard to make him a tuner really. You can do it pretty easily with Runick and also with Sky Strikers. Pretty much any runick spell lets you turn him into a tuner. Then Hornet drones or engage also let you turn him into a tuner very easily. Problem is then you can't make the token in either of those situations.

[@abrahamtorres4474]

Add two or 3 orchestrated return like sky orcust

[@esrohm6460]

after a million years people have finaly figured out how to play my favorite musical instrument, the common brick. have you considered simply not having bricks in hand in orcust

[@midn8588]

Orcusts are best used as extenders on a long combo that can bin one of them at the end of the base combo for extra extension and grind power. They're less good in midrangey type decks like this one, and sadly most of the ways to bin a harp are now banned. Maybe some sort of synchro strategy that can make shooting riser wants them now, or if dark warrior ever becomes a thing again they'll be good, but I don't think they line up great with the current meta.

[@nonadqs]

You know shooting riser has text, right?

[@BGriffin_UK]

Nice violin work

[@SloopYGO]

ive been thinking about this since horus released, but isnt just leaving the 4 guys up with the continuous spell insane? i guess its not consistent enough but everytime i see horus being used only to make rank 8s i think of this

[@Wyrmi]

they serve a good wall but they don't really do anything on their own without being interacted with so the opponent can just go full combo ignoring you and then get rid of all ur stuff once they're set up

[@ahmadidrees127]

I like how mbt is reading the orcust monsters for the 4 people who came to yugioh after 2019

[@halyoalex8942]

Hi i started playing cus of master duel so this was genuinely helpful

[@pableitor2009]

I hope that people realize that "full orcust combo" in 2024 crumbles to against a single fenrir. Harp could've come back years ago

[@metalmariomega]

"Orcust Combo" was never really a full board, more like something you throw up after setting a bunch of Fog Blades/Widow Anchors. Which probably do more nowadays than a single Crescendo or a Dingirsu loop.

[@danielhertz1984]

@@metalmariomega verte is the only reason why people don't say orcust combo anymore. it took it's place as the last option when you go interrupted

[@masenhopper5247]

Orcust combo into PK rusty gives an extra interruption in fog blade and with the newer rank up you can banish 2 darks to go into raidraptor ultimate falcon using dingirsu as material. Summon ultimate falcon after using dingirsu and other interruptions to at least give you another turn to pop off. Uneffected decent big stick could be all you need in some scenarios to push through some things, plus fog blade is still pretty good.

[@albotski1253]

ORCUST GAMING LETSGO

[@obskewerd3992]

MBT, Try my deck. I tried to show it to coder but he told me I was bad or something. Vanquish Swordsoul. No Mo Ye (thats why Coder didn’t like it I think) Longyuan at 2x Emergence at 3x Jiaolong and Longyuan are both Fire + Wyrm. Jiaolong is a ROTA on steroids for VS. Can pitch her for longyuan. Choose between Barrone, Chengying, Augerine Icejade or Sinister sovereign. Chengying- Combos insanely well with snow devil Icejade - Protect stuff Barrone - negate Sinister sovereign (my fave) Combine his burn banish, With borgers 1500 every standby, plus the longyuan 1200 burn. It comes up a lot and has won me games. Its my favourite SwordSoul Auspice Chunjun. Progides a dodge and an earth attribute in hand. Jiaolong and Longyuan, can essentially make you a way to razen as well, through things like revealing Ash blossom, Longyuan, Abyss dragon swordsoul. Its the most consistent version iv played to get to razen. I dont even use madlove because Jiaolong can search so frequently and easily for ANY VS CARD. You can mix and match your attribute targets all you like but longyuan Emergence Auspice Abyss dragon swordsoul Pretty much do the job as they are.

Yeah, there is. Orcust doesn’t have any World Legacy cards other than Wand, and that’s not a card we want to search. Ib just doesn’t do anything for the deck.

[@danielhertz1984]

@@CountofBleck my man be serious no one wants to run a monster reborn anymore

@CountofBleck we do run that in the Scrap variant, but that’s so we can loop Scrap Recycler an additional time. And we grab that off of Lib, since it a lot easier for Orcust to summon than Ib.

@danielhertz1984 Plenty of decks still play a reborn spell, at least as long as it’s searchable. But yeah, OG monster reborn doesn’t see much play outside of being the 40th card in some decks.
