THE SILLIEST CARD EVER JUST GOT PRINTED! [Yu-Gi-Oh! Archetypes Explained: Earthbound Servant]

[@vinnythewebsurfer]

As someone that’s always loved the concept as unfortunately underdeveloped as miracle synchro fusion, these dudes are sweet.

[@michaelnelson1127]

16:35 Actually, cards like Lubellion are off the table because of one key aspect of Harmonic Synchro Fusion: it doesn’t properly summon the monsters; it only special summons them from the extra deck. So any effects that activate when a monster is Fusion or Synchro summoned (such as Lubellion’s) won’t be able to activate.

[@omarhatem5424]

no you're using mudragon to go to lubellion, mudragon counts as fusion summon which I'm realizing you can't do because muddy mudragon must be properly sync'd to use this effect

[@michaelnelson1127]

@@omarhatem5424 He was talking about using Mudragon as material for HSF since he mentioned summoning out RDA Abyss alongside it, so yeah, Lubellion wouldn’t be able to go into Mirrorjade in that situation.

[@aaronredding1574]

@@michaelnelson1127 Aren't Ritual, Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, Pendulum, and Link Summons are all considered Special Summons?

[@michaelnelson1127]

@@aaronredding1574 Technically yes, but if they’re just “special summoned” without using their proper summoning technique, then not only can they not be summoned from the GY if they leave the field, but they can’t activate any of their effects that activate when they’re [Fusion etc] summoned, such as Lubellion.

[@julianadams3710]

@@aaronredding1574It’s a bit confusing, all of those are counted as a type of special summon. But a generic special summon doesn’t automatically count as any of those types. That’s why cards like the effect of Stardust Warrior say “this summon is counted as a synchro summon.”

[@patdav56]

Big limit to Harmonic Synchro Fusion is that they are special summoned, not treated as a fusion or synchro. As such, you cant get out cards that must be fusion summoned (like some EHeroes and shadoll), but it still checks for whether they can be regularly fused or tuned as well (so no monsters that would be Contact fused or Tzolkin)

[@Hanmacx]

Sad Buster Blader noises

[@gloryofpopo5184]

12:24 Problem with the shaddoll fusion monsters is 1 line of text that would stop them from* being used, The 1st line of text on all the Shaddoll fusion monsters is "Must first be Fusion Summoned" and seeing as Harmonic Synchro fusion is not a fusion summon and it doesn't ignore the summoning conditions they cannot be summoned from it. (*Was Form)

[@sharkshread]

Harmonic Synchro fusion sounds funny. Let me use a Buster Blader and a Whelp to get out my Buster Dragon and Destruction Sword Master onto the field.

[@master_yugen7278]

oh yeah, Geo Gremlina is now revealed to be in separate set, Age of Overlord

[@DJGlaceon991]

Nova proceeded to go back to the Orbital Platform with sledgehammer in hand, looking for Deskbot 5.

[@Trekkie46]

Being able to search Resonators was something I realized right away when I saw the reveal and I started partying.3 more Resonator Call is so welcome, especially with Soul Resonator searching a non tuner. I seriously can't wait for the Jack Atlas structure deck to come out.

[@rex19797]

here's the funniest thing i found out while thinkering with them, the earthbound immortals are great small world bridges for the prisoners (with the exception of ccapac apu which is also a fiend) the only thing they share is the dark typing

[@Holdendave1]

Apparently, we might be getting all of the new Earthbound cards in Age of Overload in a month from now.

[@christinepearson4972]

Note that this set of earthbound cards are a sub section of the earthbound immortals archetype

[@TaosoftheVoid]

Now to save up for when this hits Master Duel

[@tickleberrypie8662]

Surprisingly enough i found these can actually work pretty well in a destiny board deck Geo kraken can search dark sanctuary well the materials used to summon it can help bring out necrofear

[@shadowoftheearthbound5225]

My favorite servants are grasha and kraken. I am planning on combining mythical beast or maybe red dragon archfiend with earthbound.

[@genesis4322]

I am still confused as to why the last Earthbound fusion monster still hasn't been printed. Where is my Gremlina Konami?

[@mofumofu9648]

I have waited for 4- no, 5000 years for this!

[@DerekBackofen]

I can’t wait too build this deck I love earthbound immortals this deck is gonna be really fun

[@skyslasher2297]

Ive wanted these guys in the game forever

[@thatrandomsquad1418]

Can we just talk about how cool like walker and stone sweeper are? Personally stone sweeper just looks rlly cool to me with the blue lines in its mouth, making it seem like it has something going on like an echo location/echo attack, and like walker is cool with its lines and makes it look like it’s pulling something/has pulled something with its chains like it rlly was a prisoner

[@blazingblackness4442]

Yeah, Geo Kraken is prolly gonna be Limited ot maybe Semi-Limited due to that non-Once per turn Field Spell search.

[@helioizer3366]

Its gonna get banned, just watch

[@comradecopperbottom2327]

Thank you Nova for making this I love the earthbound monsters and I couldn't find good translations for these cards.

[@Actionfan19]

I too have been salivating over harmonic synchro fusion for years. It'll be just the boost I need for my cyberse decks.

[@jamessamedy6319]

Geo Grenlina: “Am I a joke to you? “

[@daezondario]

Gremlin kinda reminds me of those creatures from the episode of teen titans where cyborg got sent into the past. The green guys or the dark spirits from legend of korra.

[@Otaku_Love-c3r]

I remember seeing these cards along time ago but I never thought they would get made into cards.

[@RenegadeStriker7]

The fusion boss is not baphomet, he's the leader of an army id demons if remember correctly

[@micha-elhorus5799]

Basically lucifer/satan , no baphomet

[@patdav56]

Glasya-Labolas

[@aleksynowik3055]

Now a question arises. Is Earthbound Spirit an Earthbound monster? I mean, if we go by kanji (like the effects do), then yes. But if we go by katakana, then no. Are we gonna get an archetypal condition, or another except Frog the Jam situation?

[@nathansmith5738]

yes, they all have "except earthbound spirit' whenever they mention earthbound cards in their effect text... if MasterDuelsMeta's translations are correct

[@Ramsey276one]

Frog the Jammed it is... XD

[@hexmaniacdio248]

Isn't spirit a normal monster? I doubt they will

[@jeremybosworth2275]

Man, if they keep converting former anime cards, I hope they make the C/C/C line-up eventually.

[@aldrinflores4531]

1:53 don't remind me. Still feel very sorry for Yuzu

[@kasaitsuchi9750]

I like how Great Big Pillock was ACTUALLY in the video this time, talking and intereacting with Nova

[@Ariaofeffect]

I feel that synchro harmonic fusion might become a spicy tech in branded, since one of their fuions has a named material that is a tuner and the other others are generic enough with the second material, and the few synchros are either 8 or 10 which works with the ecclesia evolution line (and bystial aluber) being level 4tuners in a majority level 4 and 6 main deck (6 being most bystials and half the good swordsouls)

[@aaa1e2r3]

I can't wait to use Harmonic Synchro Fusion in Plunder Patroll, as long as you have either a Whitebeard or a Goldenhair on the field + one of the other trolls gets you both Lys (monster negate) + Jord (Token generation + recycling). You can easily set yourself up with 2 ships + Blackbeard in one turn

[@BabyDuckKaspar]

Nope. Can't summon Blackbeard the entire turn you activate it. Reread it

[@SnowyGrass]

kinda wish this was actually support for the immortals rather than a loosely connected archetype.

[@Arachobia]

Cats will eat earwax if they find it. Apparently, human earwax smells like food to them

[@kingmuizz708]

No way that's true dude

[@karetsu889]

Also, funnily enough, you can just call Chacu Challua to end the battle phase(if Challua works like that) if Griffon gets popped first. Challua is just a walking floodgate and if your opponent HAS to attack over it, they have no choice to deal with the big whale.

[@alexandersavage305]

I adored the Immortals as a 5ds kid, and even though these support cards aren’t the most faithful, I love them too.

[@riroufudo]

I had a good chuckle about the intro gg golden nova

[@BluePhoenix_]

They probably had a bunh of beta sketches lying around and just made them into a thing in Arc-V

[@puppetmon9687]

I love all the Earthbound Servants, they are so much fun

[@pokeperson1000]

Why was Gremlina the only one excluded from the upcoming animation chronicles? I feel like even if Konami was planning on expanding the archetype later, why print everything introduced in the anime and then just leave one off the list? The card itself requires a decent amount of setup to actually deal a decent amount of burn, and you’re nuking your own board in the process, so unless you’re in a scenario where you’re blowing out your opponent or about to go time in the round, it isn’t as though it is particularly worth much. Konami why.

[@anthonythomas305]

Sergey: BEAUTIFUL video Nova!

[@motutaressanressan8902]

The ten is fine because of the level six synchro

[@riroufudo]

The earthbound servants are from arc V

[@user-ex1jg4ph8v]

Sorry gremlina just came out I am a dumbass

[@thebakerofgaming9725]

Btw I just wanna say as I am a fan of these cards. I believe a reason gremlin has the life point bit is for when they print its fusion counter part gremlina. Who in the anime burned jack for keeping his red dragon instead of destroying it.

[@FranciscoRamirez-nb4uu]

It wasn't thay, in the anime Gremlin lock your battle phase if you destroy so it's more tempting for the opponent, them the other monster destroy all monsters 7f one was destroyed by effect and deals damage. Jack chose to keep his monster so Sergey strategy didn't work

[@dely9999]

Gremlina not being released is Bullshit it literally breaks the gimmick of Deck that is being able to summon a Fusion and a Synchro Monster with the possible combinations of Earthbound Prisioners With the same level of course

[@walterlopez5054]

combo idea for Harmonic Synchro Fusion: use any 2 Zombies for the Synchro. while also fusing for Underworld Dragon Dragonecro

[@wolfboy414_lac]

dragonecro must first be fusion summoned, so you can't use synchro fusion for it, since it doesn't actually fusion/synchro summon

[@owlhex]

Omg i heckin love 5b's

[@elijahcooper9361]

Am I tripping or does this spell card work for busters blader as well?

[@Emmanuelboyd]

I need this to come to master duel I'm all about the anime decks

[@AcroxShadow]

The V in "ARC-V" is a 5

[@AntiVectorTV]

4:42 Am I reading that last effect right? It sounds like it shuffles the Extra Deck monster into the MAIN deck, completely neutralizing one-ofs.

[@spicynyaa7948]

That can't happen. It's a core rule that "shuffle into the Deck" always shuffles ED monsters into the ED without clarification. Otherwise ANY "shuffle into the Deck" effect like Erebus would shuffle them into the main Deck.

[@ffjj3964]

Earthbound “Servant” probably link to the ”Immortal” so Konami could keep the sweet artwork-theme. Serious the Dark-Gray blobs of mystical Monster with bright colorful line is too good to waste.

1* Can summon the 5* even from Deck.

[@zaleww5824]

@@u53r12 yes but 5* can search resonators as well since it says level 3 or lower tuner. It's basically once per turn 4th to 6th copy of resonator call at worst. For real the deck performs well enough but needs like one good normal trap for archetype that also works in gy so it can be used for ariane effect if needed. I tested enough with weird profile and it honestly surprised me how well these works with rda. I played 3 5* and 2 1*
