Yu-Gi-Oh! *COMPETITIVE* In-Depth Mekk Knight Invoked Deck Profile + Combo Tutorial! |August 2019|

[@thecalieffect]

Working on adding more graphics! Let me know what you think!!

[@smurex5363]

It's pretty good

[@theofficialk.a.m...p4760]

I like the way it is now honestly

[@static-5232]

I like it the way it is.

[@LeChampionPodcast]

The graphics are amazing. Its very creative and can't wait to see what you do next

[@MRawesome202]

i like the deck a ton, but how do you not play borrelsword in a mekk-knight deck? going 2nd with almost any opening hand its an otk

[@natoriousthehopeful2786]

It amazes me how some decks stand the test of time; by all logic Mekk-Knights shouldn't even be rogue, but they have so much potential it's CRAZY! Thanks Cali!

[@patirck024]

Guru bodies them

[@JoeVO24]

ive been playin mekk knights since they came out and this is definitely a new and interesting way to play em! i gadda say, i love the energy and passion you put into your explanations, as well as the whole video. I'm glad i subbed, keep it up!

[@SimplementeRene]

Time to spend on this! Mekk-Knight for life

[@liamjones2131]

Great video, but there's something irking me about it... At 15:48, you use "Aleister the Invoker of Madness" for the Fusion Summon of "Invoked Elysium". This would be fine, if "Aleister the Invoker of Madness" was an 'Invoked' monster and their monster was 'Special Summoned from the extra deck'. Overall a very great video. Apologies for being a nuisance. Love the deck, and the Mekk-Knight combo was really something neat.

[@theofficialk.a.m...p4760]

That play is correct.

[@SolarFlareWings]

You can't Super Poly with the Aleister Link to make Elysium. Elysium requires an "Invoked" monster.

[@sweeney7163]

You’re right. He could still superpoly using his Mechaba instead (preferable after Mechaba activated its effect), that way you’ll even be able to search for another invocation or book the law, should you choose to run it, with your link aleister.

[@LaowzyBoi]

He also couldn't send the aleister in his hand as material for super poly

[@SolarFlareWings]

@@LaowzyBoi That was sent as the discard cost for Super Poly, not Fusion Material.

[@tophatowl6724]

Bro I just wanted to say thank you for helping me out find some good decks that arent too expensive as someone thats starting out with yugioh. Ive been looking for some good decks that are fun and look cool, so ty

[@InquisitorEx]

Cali always dropping fire ass deck profiles. You’re a goat man!

[@babyyoudaman8204]

Yo thanks for the profile Cali just watched the duel and this deck looks hella fun! Would like to see how this does against Crusadia Thunder and Pendulums

[@BlueSkyYGO]

Let me side 3 Ra Sphere and Kaijus 😂🤣

[@theofficialk.a.m...p4760]

The only decks I've seen to have problems with are true draco, statues, monarchs and all the normal summon decks that abuse solemns and ss stoppers, skill drain monarchs erupt are all problems so I side or even main red reboots for the imperms also

[@kingfredmar6514]

I was thinking about making a cyber dragon/mekk knight deck

[@Lockon_Stratos]

I run the Sky Striker engine in my build as well. It's mainly to have another way of getting into Aleister and/or Morning Star.

[@Adrecool]

I was wait for this :D tanks cali

[@marief1942]

I got a question why do you run three gama when you run one driver

[@kazeinu0151]

I'm confused, Aleister isn't an "Invoked" monster, he's "Invoker." So how can he meet the material requirements for Elysium, unless you meant using him and Mechaba? Good profile though, Monstrosity is something I didn't think of but True King of All Calamities is totally worth it.

[@sweeney7163]

Don’t be confused, you’re right. He’d have had to use Mechaba in that scenario :)

[@GixMTG]

I didn't even know how easy it was to make a first turn VFD board. Thanks Clali this has boosted my Invoked deck's potential immensely. *EDIT Note: If you play on a budget like I do & don't own and Idlee you can just use True King Agnimazud the Vanisher which is easily obtained since its a common in the Salamangreat Structure Deck.

[@zikadobrosavljev7656]

2'nd combo doesn't work, 1'st u can't use super poly targets from hand, and 2'nd you can't use invoker of madness as the invoked part of the elysium fusion because it's invokeR not invokeD

[@Nyartatouille]

Yes indeed. Thanks for pointing it out :)

[@awhellnawteehee2622]

you sure wanted to point out the D lmao

[@testchannel-mn8ef]

Interesting but i dont like play mekk knight like this , prefer keep playing mind control and pankra for magellanica !!

[@alvinlachhman5405]

The second combo with super poly, aleister, and a mekk knight can be even better. Summon aleister and go into almiraj. You can end on mechaba, purgatrio, and invoker. During battle phase, you can book of the law into the second mechaba after purgatrio cleared the field then super poly into Elysium.

[@YGOPD]

I can just see all the times I am going to open 1 of those level 9s...

[@von254]

Making monstrosity and the other level 9 in your deck major bricks. This build looks like brick city to be honest

[@Bismillah101]

4 magical melt downs?

[@ZahmbeesFGC91]

Are you going to do a live duel with this deck?

[@MegaNumberXIII]

....You just LOVE breaking my bank account, don't you Cali?

[@roguewarrior8187]

How would you make Borreload Savage Dragon?

[@sweeney7163]

Any of the ghost girl hand traps (here it is only ash, but still...) + either Invoked Raidjin oder Mekk-Knight Blue Sky. That isn’t really worth it tho.

[@theofficialk.a.m...p4760]

Hey Cali can you explain the pay frame plays in this deck for me? I got my regional August 31 and I really don't understand the play? Edit: NVM. I didn't read lambda well enough

[@alexandermorel3151]

Can you plszx do Shaddoll profile deck competitive

[@theofficialk.a.m...p4760]

Invoked shaddolls are pretty good

[@toonflash855]

Hey guys I need your advice on this, should I run invoked, or pure? I’ve been running invoked for a while, but idk if I should build pure, or upgrade my invoked any help appreciated. Ps: Cali thanks for the meek knight profiles, they’re pretty scarce nowadays.

[@CARxRIM]

Thanks for this dawg

[@rocklee8135]

You’ve gained my Sub for this.

[@tate668]

Not sure if you knew, but you cant summon elysium like that. It takes an "invoked" monster. Not an "invoker" monster

[@BlueSkyYGO]

Need a Fusion as material :)

[@tate668]

@@BlueSkyYGO thats correct. Only the fusions carry the "invoked" name :)

“Ah-list-er” the Invoker my dude.

[@thatrandomfailure9208]

Wait why do you play 3 invocation? You only need 1 since it can shuffle itself into the deck and add aliestar to hand.

[@osdetstreams3715]

2 is fine, not 1

[@thatrandomfailure9208]

@@osdetstreams3715 Why is 1 bad?

[@hoangnguyentien4313]

That Random Failure Because Aleister is way too easy to be negated, and with decks playing so many handtraps, it is unlikely that your opp would let Aleister go through

[@sobervision1049]

Is running a copy of book of law too much?

[@zachns]

SoberVision while book of the law is a great card, not only dodging targeting effects and to push for otks, it doesn’t necessarily help going first. You can orient this deck to a blind second deck like it used to, but that might be risky especially if you don’t know what you’re playing against. I used to run book of the law, but took it out since it wasn’t helping my plays first turn.

[@sobervision1049]

@@zachns I understand that but would running one copy be bad? Invoker of Madness can search it so its like you will only see the card when you want to.

[@zachns]

@@sobervision1049 indeed, but just saying there will be games when you open it and would rather see literally anything else. It's player's preference though, perhaps test with it and see how you like it.

[@sobervision1049]

@@zachns Im okay with that. Sometimes book of law is good for helping get out different attributes especially when all you see are Light mekk knights and aleister.

[@Nopulu]

It's a good card for blind second. Just expect to side it out when being forced to go first

[@oak3785]

how old is this archetype because it looks cool as FUCK

[@cw_dc]

This just looks too bricky through a long day of regionals.

[@tommymoodie2157]

It's nice to be able to put up a board full of negates when you are going first with mekk-knights. But yea the true king combo is pretty bricky. If you draw one of those level 9's you are pretty much screwed and have to use it as fodder. Unless you can use monstrosity to summon it from your hand and then use one of your fusions as material.

[@cw_dc]

Tommy Moodie Agreed I just prefer to use this deck to break fields especially with super poly now. Also I prefer the sky striker engine because it makes the deck really consistent

[@tommymoodie2157]

Use jizakiro instead of the mardark because he isnt a brick!

[@gaminginteriorhd9709]

Jizakiro is level 10 if you want to have a kaiju use either of the thunder king kaijus the mecha one would probably be better if you know your opponent plays kaijus also marduck can be discarded for morning star like cali said edit: actually you can't even use either of them because mechaba is light but any other deck that has a level 9 non light monster summon one of the thunder king kaijus

[@Harmonic14]
