Shining Sarcophagus - Decks Explained Very Quickly And Easily

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

You notice how a lot of earlier anime decks were chaotic in composition? Yugi alone had Spellcasters, Fiends, Machines, Warriors, Divine-Beasts, etc…? This Shining Sarcophagus approach sounds like a great first step to uniting those all, but we need equivalents for other characters (Like Kaiba, Joey, Pegasus, Chazz, etc…)

[@mr.wonderfulwisdomouswonde2991]

blue eyes has basically consumed all of kaibas cards joey it depends since red eyes is seen in a way as the joey deck but i could see them making a gambler deck just for him Pegasus is easy make a toon relinquished that helps cheat out thousand eyes

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

@@mr.wonderfulwisdomouswonde2991 Kaiba is easy… Just give all of his older cards “Blue-Eyes” or “Eyes of Blue”. Blue-Eyes Saggi, Blue-Eyes Swordstalker, etc….

[@thatman666]

So unite Toon World with -Eyes Restrict monsters.

[@melvinshine9841]

Both the Yugioh anime and actual card game didn't really have archetypes then. You just threw whatever the hell you wanted in a deck because there wasn't a reason not to.

[@ked49]

We have one for grandpa, technically speaking.

[@JosephHk743]

Yugi’s ceremonial deck has managed to be a fully fledged deck archetype with the Shining Sarcophagus which, as a fan of the DM anime, makes me happy to see. Thanks for explaining the deck Logs!

[@Gebirges]

And it's not even fully done since it can expand its support with more cards like the Knights.

[@henryhardfoot]

Bigtime. I've been out of the loop for /ages/, and have never wanted to try getting back into the game because there's so much new learning to do.

[@Red-mg4ro]

I find it funny how since Gold Sarcophagus in the manga negated whatever card was put in there, the final DM era duel was decided by an omni-negate. For real though, watching Yugi beat each of the gods one at a time with different strats was so hype.

[@diinouhothead9362]

Manga & Anime Gold Sarcophagus is just floating Crossout Designator...

[@danmakuusou9348]

It make sense why Gold Sarcophagus is an omni negate in manga/anime, since its a coffin afterall. With the meaning behind the final duel, it really make more sense than the actual card eff

They need to add the magnet warriors along with valkayron. One of their boss monsters should either be a one sided macro cosmos or one sided necro valley to symbolize those that goes to the GY needs to stay there.

[@arielcevallos8188]

Yes, the Magnet Warriors were at that battle, and beat the Egyptian Gods, but Konami forget them. 😢

[@dearickangelonej.legaspi6686]

I'm fine with that as long as the floodgate is locked behind actually playing the deck and cards like needing Shining Sarc on field to actually use it.

[@The_Glazer]

And the poker knights. They need a serious retrain

[@dearickangelonej.legaspi6686]

@@The_Glazer more like support and end bosses, the engine and playstyle is okay but theres just no end board other than maybe the first fusion card and the link if your lucky but your going to lakc a hand to use the negates well. The Slifer side of the deck is nice but theres not enough search power in the deck to actually get it going without throwing in the God support and Zlifer on its own is a simple floodgate to answer

[@KHuyPh]

There's some more subtlety to Archfiend's Advent that needs to be mentioned. It doesnt necessarily compete with Gadget Trio, but rather serves as a secondary option. If you have access to GT, you're probably always gonna prioritize that as your normal summon. But the thing is, once you've used GT, there's really no point in summoning a 2nd, and that's where AA comes in. If you've enabled all your plays thanks to GT on YOUR 1st turn, then AA is a good ns on your 2ND turn. In addition its board breaker ability is a pretty essential backup option for Gandora G. Normally Gandora is enough end your opp, but remember it destroys first, then banishes. Some decks have destruction protection, so Gandora wont work. AA's ability to steal an opponent's monster instead is an awesome backup that can also enable link plays like going into an S:P Little Knight for another banish (2 if the monster you stole with AA is an extra deck monster)🤯

[@LegendInMotion]

Just wanted to give a huge tech tip for my shining sarc players. Since recursion can be a problem with this deck, I suggest trying to make 2 slots in main deck for Gizmek Makami. It can normal summon itself without tribute if you have 6 cards banished. You can discard 1 monster and search for another monster with the same ATK and DEF (Gandora.G). Then special summon out Gandora.G and DM, Activate Gandora's effect and special summon silent magician. Trigger DM and Gizmek Makami as when Makami is destroyed it will shuffle back 6 cards from your banished pile back to the deck.Then Set secrets for the Dragoon Follow Up.

[@mostafaahmed9430]

wouldn't that conflict with normal summoning gadget trio just like Archfiend's Advent? Or is it an extra normal summon?

[@LegendInMotion]

@@mostafaahmed9430 it would indeed take up the normal summon for the Gadget Boys, but you ideally want to prioritize normal summoning the Gadget Boys before Makami if at all possible. Makami can make an incredible normal summon to search out Gandora and recur your banish pile on its destruction with Gandoras effect.

[@futhedude4848]

Gizmek Makami is a huge brick, it's need 6 cards in your banish zone to normal summon him. If you draw him on first turn, it's really hard to summon him that way. Beside, as @mostafaahmed9430 said, it will waste 1 normal summon and conflict with the Gadget. His effect allow to search Gandora-G, but need to discard 1 card, which is not really good.

[@MrSlushee22]

Not gonna lie, I’ve been struggling on deciding when and how to play this deck at locals. This videos helped a lot. Thanks!

[@MagicalGirlContractor]

Something I like about Moremarshmallon is that is another way to enable Ties That Bind as a level 4 Monster that would make your deck less reliant on normal summons, and lets you play around your Gadgets getting negated.

[@maxedoutvibes]

Two good (in my opinion) cards that work in helping start the Shining Sarc engine is to run a copy of Gold and Silver Gadget, which can both search out a lvl 4 Gadget monster on destruction. Which ups the number of cards in your deck that start your combo from 9 (3 Shining Sarc, 3 Gadget Trio, and 3 Future Silence) to 11.

[@KHuyPh]

That's a good thought. I think it may be a good side deck option. I've played the deck a lot and I've found that essentially having 9 copies of Shining Sarc has been more than enough to get the deck started and I'd typically rather use those 2 slots for non engine and handtraps

[@futhedude4848]

i think they are too slow.

[@de606returns6]

I just recently pulled these cards so this guide is super appreciated since I'm willing to have fun with this new deck and experiment with it

I like how the game has made each Yugi card into its own deck, but I do wish it was easier to play the game with a varied deck. Yugi's mishmash of cards always worked for me in video games, but obviously they wouldn't be winning any tournaments in real life.

[@juangarciac06]

Hi DuelLogs! Great video! I am new to the deck and am wondering after seeing some videos if I should run one or two Silent Magician Zero on the main. Do you think is OK to only run one?

[@melvinshine9841]

Despite like the Extra Deck, I might try these cards whenever they hit Master Duel, if for no other reason that Dark Magician has sick artwork. Though, it makes me sad Summoned Skull's been retrained like 9 times and it still doesn't have a really good card.

[@diinouhothead9362]

When do you think it will hit? Finished my Utopia deck there and now I also feels like building Shiny too.

[@nah750]

I wouldn't be surprised if we got a second wave with Buster Blader, DMG, Valkyrion, and Blockman retrains. Maybe even Magnet Reverse as an in-archetype reborn.

[@jaykettavong4109]

Any chance you do the Horus sons monster gold saco as well

[@DragonKingRyu993]

Funny enough, these isn’t even the full power of the deck, they have yet to make many other cards into the shining variations, swords of revealing light, the magnet trio, the mirage traps, buster blader, even kuriboh was in there, so these archetype has a lot of room to grow

[@ixiahj]

After using the deck for a while, I think that hidden fortress is under rated. Sometimes you don't have an option but to beat over an opponent's monster that can't be destroyed by effects or targeted out. Hidden Fortress does it easily. Most of the time, its easily 5k ATK when it comes out and its just a one time battering ram that you're smaller monsters can use to get past that one monster that's seemingly unmovable.

[@rainbowdragon168]

I like the whole theme of the Shining Sarcophagus archetype and it’s really cool

[@7thRoseHalo]

I clicked on this video because of natural curiosity. And then 2 minutes in I asked, "why the fuck am I watching this? I don't play, nor am I gonna buy these cards to play.

Magnet Warriors, Curse of Dragon and Buster Blader got those already with archetypes more focused around them.

[@herohut725]

@@D-Havoc I know, so did the Silents. So it would be the same here. Just retrain them for this archetype

[@D-Havoc]

@herohut725 "Silent" isn't an archetype. For something to be classified as an archetype, or at least an official archetype, it needs to have cards that support it by direct association such card text listing the archetype or linking the memebers together. You have a card that supports "Silent Swordsman." You have a card that supports "Silent Magician." You do not have a card that supports "Silent." Manget Warriors have "Magnetic Field," a card that denotes the archetype "Manget Warrior" in its text. Curse of Dragon is associated and is supported by "Gaia The Fierce Knight" archetpe by the fusion monsters, Galloping Gaia, and Artillery Catapult Turtle. Buster Blader is supprted directly by its self-titled archetype Buster Blader. And all of that aside, some of these monsters aren't linked to the Ceremonial Duel between Yugi and Atem/Dark Yugi. Others, like Curse of Dragon, aren't even in either of their decks after Duelist Kingdom.

[@herohut725]

@@D-Havoc you should probably watch the duel again. I wouldn't mention Curse of Dragon if it wasn't in there. Yugi used it. Okay, the Silents have a few cards as support but that would've been just splitting hairs. I just meant that it wouldn't be so strange to make the cards I mentioned to also have different retrains for Sarcophagus archetype.

0:24 So these days we have multiple “Sarcophagus” cards… “The First” “Kings” and “Shining” (which is in itself a redo of “golden”) are some examples, on top of having many MANY Egyptian themed archetypes in general… _So MY idea is to make a joint retrain of a bunch of these “Sarcophagus” cards:_ _The Chosen of Horus - The Sarcophagus Supreme_ Continuous Trap _You can only control 1 “The Sarcophagus Supreme”. Unaffected by the effects of other cards while you control a face-up "The Second Sarcophagus". While in your hand, face-up on the field, in the GY or Banished, this card’s name is also treated as “The First Sarcophagus”, “King’s Sarcophagus”, and “Shining Sarcophagus”. You can shuffle 1 card from your hand, Field, GY or Banishment who’s original name was “King’s Sarcophagus”, or “Shining Sarcophagus”: This card gains that shuffled card’s effects while on the field. Once per turn, during the end phase of each player’s turn: Place 1 The Second Sarcophagus" or (after you've done that) "The Third Sarcophagus" from your hand, Deck or GY in your Spell/Trap Zone face-up. Once per turn, if you control "The First Sarcophagus", "The Second Sarcophagus", and "The Third Sarcophagus", you can special summon 1 Special Summon 1 "Spirit of the Pharaoh" from your hand, Deck, GY or Banishment._ _The Chosen of Horus - The Sarcophagus Subservient #1_ Continuous Spell _(This card is always treated as “The Second Sarcophagus”.)_ _This card can only be placed on the field by the effect of "The First Sarcophagus". Once per turn, you can apply 1 of the following effects:_ _⚪️Excavate 2 cards from the top of your deck, and if they mentions “Horus” or “Shining Sarcophagus” in their names or text, add them to your hand, otherwise shuffle them into your deck._ _⚪️Special Summon 1 “Token Soldier of Horus” (Zombie/Tuner/DARK/Level 1/ATK 500/DEF 500)._ _⚪️Send 1 banished card to it’s owners GY._ _The Chosen of Horus - The Sarcophagus Subservient #2_ Continuous Spell _(This card is always treated as “The Third Sarcophagus”.)_ _This card can only be placed on the field by the effect of "The First Sarcophagus". Once per turn, you can apply 1 of the following effects:_ _⚪️Excavate 2 cards from the top of your deck, and if they mentions “Horus” or “Shining Sarcophagus” in their names or text, add them to your hand, otherwise shuffle them into your deck._ _⚪️Special Summon 1 “Token Soldier of Horus” (Zombie/Tuner/DARK/Level 1/ATK 500/DEF 500)._ _⚪️Send 1 banished card to it’s owners GY._ _Spirt of the Pharaoh - Chosen of Horus_ (DARK) Level 6 Zombie/Effect _(This card is always treated as “Spirit of the Pharaoh”.)_ _Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must be either be Special Summoned by "The First Sarcophagus", or by its own effect. Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can special summon any number of “Royal Soldier of Horus Tokens” (Zombie/Tuner/DARK/Level 1/ATK 1500/DEF 1500). While you control this Face-up card, “Sarcophagus” Spell/Trap cards you control are unaffected by your opponent’s cards or effects. If this card leaves the field: Add 1 Card to your hand from your deck or GY that mentions “King’s Sarcophagus” or “Shining Sarcophagus” in it’s name or text. If you Summoned a “Spirit of the Pharaoh” this duel using the effect of “The First Sarcophagus”, you can tribute 3 monsters you control: Special Summon this card from your hand, GY or Banishment._ ATK/2500 DEF/2000
