Ranking every Synchro in Edison Format

[@seeker606]

The hate on Gaia Knight is real, perfect 6 to make when you're hitting into an empty board but not killing so you don't lose your Goyo to the crack back

[@Blackraptor1234]

Thats the biggest reason zombies play it. It preserves goyo for the otk

[@OmniNero]

Agreed. It’s a level six that’s not Goyo that also kills Ab Zero, Stardust, Armed Wing, Chaos Sorc, and all the Monarchs. It’s quite solid.

[@OmniNero]

Yeah, it being a warrior to bump up Colossal Fighter’s attack is pretty important to hit for 8k exactsies.

[@Jobbaz]

Gaia>Uruquizas in almost any case.

[@Luzbel809]

@@Jobbaz The value I see in Uruquizas is doing great damage to the opponent if it has a monster in defense with low stats, better if the opponent is trying to stall with something like Spirit Reaper.

[@Jeppe_P]

Karpath be like: All the best monsters for their level should be in staple. Anyway, Mist wurm is situational Also Karpath: You should run Mist wurm, it comes up a lot for me.

[@trafalgarlaw9700]

Makes a tierlist of all synchro *didnt read the effects*

[@firemage8874]

@@trafalgarlaw9700 I think hes just trusting that everyone else has read the effects, and if after all these years nobody has found a way to use/abuse it then its probably bad and not even worth reading

[@shadowdraqon2479]

Stardust and colossal being immune to skill drain is busted. Colossal losing the attack gain can even be beneficial becuz u want it to be 2800 to crash into other common 2800 monsters like tytannial/REDMD/DAD/Goyo so that colossal can revive himself and attack again

TCGPLAYER AFFILIATE LET'S GOOO

[@ducky36F]

I lost a game because someone milled future fusion off the top of my deck with Iron Chain. So mad 😂

[@shadowdraqon2479]

Also comes up vs lightsworn when they mill the majority of their deck and their main deck is like 3 or less cards, iron chain dragon becomes a win condition

[@shadowdraqon2479]

And also ofc vs dragon turbo when they draw thru their entire deck with super rejuv/trade in/cards of consonance/upstarts/etc

[@SquibbyJ]

Gaia seems bad until you play Zombies and man. Having two Goyo would be so nice. The lethal lines it enables are too common to cut it in a good list, you have too good access to level 6 plays.

[@Jobbaz]

Android deserves to stay in the same tier as Catastor. Sure, the latter has some matchups he does help a lot against (Machina, Fairy, LS) but Android is way more generically useful. -2400 atk is huge in any case, while 2200 is mediocre vs Darks. -You do not go -2 if your opponent drops Cydra. -Light is a great attribute to drop from your ED in case you run Chaos. -600 lp is free value in any case and it can matter in a game. It becomes busted in a tournament setting where it can win you rounds. Doom Kaiser is at least "situational" since Plaguespreader is a pretty generic card. When you resolve Kaiser on Plag is a lv8 synchro ticket you don't want to miss. Or rather another Goblin trigger.

[@OmniNero]

Zombie Master --> steal their Plague --> Sync into Doomkaiser is such a power play.

[@ma.2099]

Super agreed and then some. Android is great. Two turns on board or more and that 1200 lp actually starts to matter big time. Between android and brio, this is what will keep most burn decks out of a top meta which is always a great thing. And being honestable is very real.

[@Cyber_Elf_Elpizo]

While there is no reason to ever make Sun Dragon Inti or Moon Dragon Quilla, an Oracle of the Sun package with 2 ascator 2 supay and 3 herald of orange light opens a lot of easy synchro doors, including Arcanite

[@MasouShizuka]

"Lifetrancer bad" "Your opinions are now invalid."

[@Ryanide_]

exploder dragonwing is actually perfect for iron chain dragon tier considering you usually make it with iron chain + white stone lol although with that logic trident should've been there too

[@ma.2099]

Iron chain plus debris makes trident iirc for levels. I would think more players would play it for the fact that it can randomly otk in qd decks for example.

[@shadowdraqon2479]

Exploder dragon wing actually has a perfect effect for dragon turbo, it auto kills battle recruiters(pyramid turtle and mystic tomato etc) kills spirit reaper, kills grand mole without triggering his effect, kills dd warrior without triggering her effect, auto kills before the opp can drop honest or kalute, and its a lvl 7 dark so it enables dragon turbo to make dark end dragon(white stone+exploder dragon wing) then dark end infinitely sends the opponent’s shit to the grave forever cuz even if dark end’s attack gets too low, u can revive it with redmd back to its original attack

[@OmniNero]

I think Tempest Magician deserves a higher spot. For meta decks, it’s good in Dragon Turbo. In a vacuum, it cheeses wins. What more could you want from a Synchro?

[@shadowdraqon2479]

Problem is its only possible to run in that deck. And it forces u to play musician king which is a light fusion monster so u cant use instsnt fusion if your koaki meiru drago is on the field, also musician king has over 1500 attack so it could die to bottomless. It would be better to play a water/fire/wind/earth fusion with less than 1500 attack as your instant fusion target

[@shadowdraqon2479]

There are a few benefits to it tho, it discards cards so it has synergy with super rejuvenation and since its a lvl 6 spellcastor it can enable the dragon deck to go into arcanite magician(white stone+temp mag), popping cards 1 at a time so it wont trigger the opponents starlight road unlike the blackrose dragon play with debri dragon

[@AquaStockYT]

Plaguespreader Caius is why D.E.D. is a staple

Are these all monster that we could use? if there is a comprhensive list of sycro allowed in Edison, could you share it?

[@williamgiguere1184]

Go on Formatlibrary in the Cards section. You can look up Edison legal cards and filter synchros

[@ColgateVT]

If underground arachnid was more generic, it'd be way too good

[@grupposportivoaikidoitalia1518]

Armor master situational? Depends on deck, not on situation... if the only tuner is Gale is the perfect... he can kill Stardust and most of others. Weaknesses? Dark End, Brionac, Black Rose (also Golgar, but hey, who plays it?)

[@curtisw0234]

i only play iron chain dragon cuz i need it with debris dragon to pop out a trident dragon

[@ultimatedbz2]

Think Armor master should be higher. You only need a BW tuner to make it and Gale is such a good generic tuner it sees play in a ton of strategies who aren't even playing other maindeck BWs and some even play Gale as their only way to make a 7. And since Gale plus a 4 goes into Armor Master a ton of those decks have access to it and when you do you're almost always going into it over Urbellum and AFD.

[@OmniNero]

I’d argue Armor Master gets summoned more often than BRD. As good as BRD is in theory, you usually don’t need to drop it. And when you do, you’re in dire straights and likely…somehow…they’ll have the Solemn or Starlight Road or Stardust for it.

[@shadowdraqon2479]

Black rose is definitely better than armor master, dark hole is banned in edison, so people generally feel safe leaving multiple monsters on their board, and ofc when heavy storm is used and in the grave, the opponent sees heavy storm in the grave, cracks a smile 😃, then sets all their trap cards knowing they are safe from heavy storm, that’s perfect for black rose dragon to net a plus 10 on their betch ass(nuke their 5 monsters and 5 traps)

[@ultimatedbz2]

@@shadowdraqon2479 but you only have 1 black rose and you're not always in a position where it's sensabile to blow up a board. In those situations Black Rose is a glorified 24 beater with a very rare position change effect

[@lukirioh]

Isn't Trishula in edison ?

[@Karpath_]

No

[@mitchc802]

lol i love the incredibly specific tiers

[@mitchc802]

Also it's time to learn how to make Stygian Sergeants. It's a fiend tuner. I put a Stygian Security and One for One in your chaos fairy list over ryko trooper and its super easy to make with all the lvl 4's. Honestly it's kinda cracked. This card is a 2200 Lord British Space Fighter that also gains 800 atk every time it runs something over. Security also allows you to make Arcanite Magician, though not sure yet if it comes up enough to warrant play.

[@trafalgarlaw9700]

"Level 8 monsters are so good" no way man i would never say that a level 8 have highter stats than a lower star monster thanks to that you can place an almost useless monster like archfiend highter

[@meetRS268]

the 1/2 deck synchros are weird af. hyunlei would be a wild generic and armed wing is a better ulqorza but has 2 tiers of separation cuz its in 2 good decks. Dont think there is a better way of doing it tho, being generic has to be a +, but it also turns the synchro tier list into a deck tier list.

[@PistisAdelphos]

Oh yeah 6 and 8 is the best I agree. And yeah You have to run catasor cause he's op, but other then that goyo, brio, stardust, colossal, thought ruler red dragon, are the best. Typically 2 stardust is the best because a lot of decks run starlight but even if you don't run starlight 2 stardust can be clutch Incase your stardust gets hit by chaos sorc ect. And I usually run double black rose for lack of good 7s to be honest cause it does come up where the 2nd black rose takes them off guard and can be broken because you can use the first one and make your opponent think you used your black rose already, so you can kind of throw the first one at them and they may over extend after the first one. And power tool is only good in morph which is actually a good deck with the right build to spam synchros with remoten and scopen, and that deck can actually run ancient fairy dragon too helps you win field spell wars of you wanna go that route although morph doesn't need the field spell just need cyber valley mind control and machine dupe.

[@shadowdraqon2479]

Black rose is limit

[@nakinock5684]

Hating on my man zeman the ape king 😤😤

[@Nemo00013]

Armory Arm is Broken but in certain situations. I'd have a tough time ranking it

[@Jobbaz]

That's why it is not in "broken" But in staple. It's really hard to justify running 0 AA in Edison so the tier fits it well.

[@OmniNero]

I used to think it was optional in decks with level 2 tuners. But when I started thinking about using Brain/Mind Control on Dupe Frog (breaking dupe lock) and set Ryko's (esp. when Hamster is also popular), it becomes a staple ED monster if you run level 2's.

[@Jobbaz]

@@OmniNero same thing when I started Edison. When I had some space issues in my ED I'd always cut AA and Android cause they looked super mid. Then I have realised how good they are to solve specific game states.

[@iceemperormobius]

Mist Wurm not being staple but being the only generic and best lvl 9 😩

[@shadowdraqon2479]

Pretty much no decks can make it except for cat(summon monk into rescue cat into air bellum and ryko) monk(lv4)+ air bellum(lv3)+ryko(lv2) = 9

[@shadowdraqon2479]

I guess technically black wingz could make it too, blizzard revive kalute, special bora, and since blackwingz is one if the best decks in edison, that automatically makes mist wurm relevant

[@YaGirlGumption]

Yo idk who you are or how yugioh even plays. But hey! The algorhythm decided that I should watch it and i do need the background noise lmao.

[@Zytalos]

Underground Arachnid deserves better, should be next to and below Gol'Gar, played in like one deck but is a really obnoxious card.

[@Blackraptor1234]

Yep, if it was generic it would probably be a staple. Hell even tuner + insect would make it super playable.

[@Miss-Alexis]

Is it weird that I know all of these? Though the ones he didn't know were mostly just bad tbh

[@leoz7244]

Uruquizas broken
