I Got Second Place With Earth Machine! | Deck Profile, Combo Tutorial, & Budget Options!

[@thecalieffect]

Hey, everyone! I entered two tournaments with this deck! My first tournament I went X-1 (Loss was because I forget the deck and had to go back and get it.) and then X-1 again (Loss the dice roll in the very last round of swiss decided that the 2 seed didn't really matter and I needed a break so I scooped before we played.) Overall in all of the matches I 2-0'd (Overall 21-3 games record) everyone except for 1 Shaddoll Invoked Player. For my fans: Anything is possible in this format guys! I think when we look back this will be a "legacy format" like Goats and 2011/Edison/etc. Believe in yourself, and keep playing! For the hating ass niggas in the back: You're going to have to find a new narrative about me. It was never true, but I allowed you to think it about me because in all honesty you motivate me to be an even better person, yugituber, and player, so thank you!

[@sacharoux84]

Hey cali, thanks for the vid. Just one thing, u cannot make harvester + anchor level 12 because they will have the sum of the originals level i think. Great video ! Stay stronk !

Great job man! Happy for ya!

[@SicilianAmericanDreams]

I love the deck! I'm working on a Eldlich Train Timelord (Grind burn) deck really fun

[@namison06]

Nice deck and video! If you find ice dragon's prison is underwhelming, swap them out for torrential tribute. Punish the opponent for overextending, or chain it to your normal summon and wipe the board that way.

[@sinner2133]

Wait, YOU’RE A DAD???? My God, I’ve been here for a few months but I just discovered this. Also, two back to back deck profiles? Big, Fat W

haha yessss

[@natoriousthehopeful2786]

That was a wholesome opening, Cali ☺️ And I can't wait for your locals video!

[@harrisonwilliams978]

Machina Fortress is the original reason why I subscribed to your page: I have loved that card since 2012, so I wanted to build a deck around it. Back then, I went to a locals before I really understood the game and saw a guy running CyDra with it, so I tried to invent a deck revolving around them. I never really had success, and my interest in the game waned once Xyz hit. Last November, I found all my old cards at my parents' place and decided to get back into it and teach my wife and friends how to play. I went back to try to build that machine deck, and the best profile I found was your Cyber Dragon Deck Profile, so I built that deck and topped my first 2 locals! Since then, I've been watching your videos all the time. I'm 100% Team Cali, bro! You are honestly the best KZbinr in the Yugioh community, and I appreciate how you make it a fun experience

[@xBrayJay]

Let’s go! This format is so awesome. I’ve actually been having fun playing PK dragon link and invoked Dogmatika Shaddoll (I’ve been building them up slowly for the past year and a half and now that I’ve finished them they are both the top decks... kinda weird) but I agree, this format is so fun and there are a ton of different strategies to play! I can’t get enough!

[@torontotaylor]

Didn’t know you have a son! Such a wholesome thing to see man. I’m a young father myself, who has a 5 year old who loves to play Yugioh. He loves the game and always wants to run duels. Can’t deny that this game of yugioh can be a beautiful thing.

[@jaredwaltman9977]

Man where has this deck been my whole life. This is the deck that might get me into playing again. Thank you so much for the profile, I cant wait to build it.

[@NeroAlphoenix]

Glad to see Infinitrack Train Machina deck is getting more recognition in TCG (I'm playing OCG deck btw lol). I'm using Infinitrack for 2 years and glad to see they got more buffed up with Machina Metalcruncher and Overdrive.

[@TheSandwhichman108]

That’s so heartwarming.

[@babrad]

You should try a second Knucles in your ED, for all those awkward plays versus hard interruption. Needle Ceiling (TT is equally good but has 1 major weakness) because you can easily boardwipe twice in a turn and win some very unfavorable matches (Misc + UCT). You can play with chain links, CL1 NC, CL2 Knucles to pop your Bullet (for resources) and trigger Citadel, or go reverse and clear the entire field but end up with an Earth Machine on the field for an Overdrive play. Also Solemn Strike becomes progressively better the more you face D-link. I swear 2nd Fortress is so incredible for the deck, anyone playing one hasnt mastered it yet. But 2nd Bullet is iffy since you go for this with a search. The only reason i ran IDP was Dragoon. While it is a very flexible card, i can see why it underperformed. Just like E.M.R, an excellent card in theory but very hard to use in practice. Finally, about the Paleo trap, i switched it with PWWB (wind blast). Banishing is great and all, the discard isn't cost, but this card won't target face-downs (mostly backrow) and PWWB can lock the draw or play around Lancea, while breaking the Invoked engine really hard (with Dinomisc they get the Aleister for free, with WB they get it as their draw). It has many nice plays you'll only understand while playing it, with the extra paleo body not making that much of a change.

[@yagami999913]

So glad to see machines still being viable in the current meta. Machina gadget was my deck back then and i still have a Machina Fortress in my wallet as a souvenir (plus a gold Solemn Judgement from a gold series i got as a birthday gift from my wife).

[@nitty287]

Love How You Got The Family involved. And good on Toping With Earth Machine. We Just Too Strong!!!💪🏿

[@kalamander8563]

I love the Machina strategy and I'm so happy you did well with Earth Machines. Keep up the awesome content!

[@The_Real_Ryan]

Love the deck profile! I don’t think the harvester/drill level modulation interaction works that way. They both specify that they become the combined original levels. Their original levels are 4 and 2 no matter what, so essentially the first effect makes them both level 6 and the second still makes them level 6. It would be awesome if they changed the original level though so this could work.

[@Bartz1989]

You are correct

[@jspring9588]

Coming in to comment this...i tried this on EDO and it wouldnt proc...the cards say original levels

[@Bartz1989]

Indeed it would seem that reading the card explains the card

[@cheesyburps5013]

This deck is proper sick, man. Only thing I've personally changed is getting rid of the trap tricks for Crab Crane and Outrigger Extension, so that your xyz monsters can't even be targeted. I also put something very similar together but with a tiny ancient gear package. Much less threatening, but it's fun lol

[@abe1801]

Hey, just found out your channel, i got here because i want to play earth machine in master duels, the combo for the deck is super confusing but because of your video, i now know the flow of this deck, keep up the hard work!

[@dinaberman3529]

That intro is so wholesome. Man I love your channel! Can’t wait for my own kid when I’m older.

Dude you are absolutely incredible, keep it up man

[@WillfromDispo]

God bless man you can tell how good a dad you are in how your son acts. Love the content as always 🙏

[@rosum]

You can't do harvester target drill to make 6 then drill to target harvester to make 12 cause they say original levels

[@user-sp9po5qi9q]

Once the new Retort Fusion card comes out you can make 4 material Zeus that can't be destroyed by card effects with only 2 cards. All you need is Retort Fusion or Instant Fusion + Any of the Infinitrack starters (Harvester or Heavy Forward).

[@javo10ful]

can you explain combo

[@Viticus]

I keep witnessing those unique, cool and innovative deck ideas like earth machine and Lyrilusc-Tribrigade that people come up with and I find it very interesting how players put decks together and make it work. Chaos Thunder is another good example.

[@Viticus]

Just as Cali said, you can play whatever you want rn. Fckng Cyber Dragons topped very recently, like, wtf how cool.

[@cbreezy2449]

Your son is precious. I can’t wait to be home from overseas. He has me missing my kids 😭

[@kenthartig7065]

7:30 Anchor drill+harvester doesn't work here; they say original level, so they just stay at level 6. Didn't catch that until I read the cards myself!

[@beebmuff2011]

Just want to say thank you for making this video have a amazing day! Gave you a thumbs up too.

[@djnickeysm]

I love this video because 1. You played a deck with Machinas in it. 2. I didn't know that you are a father and I wish your kid the best in life and hope he stay TOO STRONG!! and 3. THAT SOMBRA SHIRT!!!!

[@dennisberger7451]

Bro just smash the 100K, tooooooo stronk💪

[@nera4988]

I love the earth machine deck. But instead of leaning on the machina cards, I had a lot of train cards. Mixed with negates aimed at a OTK. Is there a link with all these cards and their prices? I want to give this a try

My brother is gonna love this video

[@deanoor9391]

Such a great channel. I'm so glad we have a guy like Calieffect to keep us going

Glad Cali picked the deck up. It’s gas 🔥. Ratios kinda weird tho. Double bullet, double crane, double fortress isn’t standard.

Yo Cali, what's the name of the background music you use in the deck profile?

[@MajorSteele1521]

Not sure if anybody mentioned it, but the slot where big eye is might be better suited for something like a Gaia Dragon the Thunder Charger, even if you don’t use the piercing to push for game it does give Zeus extra fodder for its effect.

[@kingson569]

I played against a player online yesterday who had this kind of deck. That player won 2-0. Both matches being around 10-12 rounds long against my Paleozoic deck. No matter where you dump the monsters they always get back to either Hand, Field or Deck. This deck can grind so well.

[@gersonhernandez8331]

I enjoy all your content man!!! Will you be updating the invoked mekk knights deck? Your videos are the reason I chose to play mekk knights!

[@CJ-zu9iw]

As a budget option for zues(though sometimes you can't go into it), was number 77. I had it from my original train deck and I thought why not? Especially with dingirsu for the spider engine.

[@TheArtiztikk]

Why aren’t you using the 3rd Goliath before using tunneller’s effect?

Before tributing tunneler and dozer for anger knuckle summon one more Goliath so you have 4 link in grave. So tunneler will return all 4 link and a starter You will want stormer in gy. But yea I love this deck🙌🏼

Bless up Fam keep up the good work

[@alanm.335]

Awesome dad, mate! Strong family! 💪

[@nemanjacvijancevic8349]

I know this is late but for anyone who's just now watching the video I wanted to point out that you can NOT make both of the Infinitracks Level 12 like Cali did in 7:33 as they specifically state that they combine their Original Levels and not their current levels. So in this case both Anchor Drill and Harvester would still be Level 6

[@StaticKaze]

Idk if anyone pointed this out but I don't think you can't climb your levels with both Anchor Drill and Harvester because they both take the combined original level, not their current levels

[@floridaman6982]

awesome deck! earth machines ROCK

[@carterjewell7466]

Wholesome opening cool dad and good at yugioh SHEEESH 😳

[@mircoklein3938]

Never understood why ppl hatin this format so much it is actually really good

[@frostielotr]

Sevens sins is a decent budget option for Zeus

[@johnnywilson3071]

I run both on DB, in some situations Seven Sins is better, especially when trying to push for game or if your opponents cards float in GY i.e. Eldilch.

[@u.a.perfectace7786]

The rank 10 spider package tis a budget alternative to Zeus? Thats really cool thank you. I play on a strict budget and this is first comment i've seen that has a replacement for Zeus.

[@frostielotr]

@@u.a.perfectace7786 in the earth machine deck it works in a similar way, the only downside is that it is not a quick effect like zeus

[@issacvasquez8649]

Wow ur a yugi dad too! Awesome and I see that sombra shirt #overwatch

Cali that was awesome big bro thanks for the awesome videos agian agian you have been my top yugituber since I started watching your videos ! Iam thankful to be apart of team calieffect when I get the extra cash I will be a official member

[@michaelmcdaniel6036]

Say I was dueling against an evilswarm deck with this and they have ophion, where you cannot special summon with monsters 4 star or higher. What would you use to combat it with this deck?

[@kultome]

what do you swap in your main deck for your side deck?

[@richardoglesby2997]

Love seeing this deck have more representation, just work on your niche plays a little. The anchor drill and harvester into zues doenst work as they combine original levels, a second anger knuckle in the extra deck should replace the big eye as it comes up far more often when you use your first but still need the extender for a rank 10 past turn 1. Have you considered sacred tree beast as a decent rank 9 in the deck? Also urgent schedule is pretty decent in the main because if it resolves it's full combo. It can be used if you get gamma or phantasmay since you can use dozer ef in hand tribute as cost to clear the field then chain urgent schedule because your opponent will control phantasmay. It's the really little things in this deck that really add up.

Do you want some advice? I play this deck since months

[@David-wq5fs]

Crazy ur so close to 100k didn’t even realize it

[@gamingfornoons]

You cannot use anchor drill and harvester to make them both level 6 then 12 because the effects read original level

[@salvalence1302]

I feel like making the spiders into The seven sins and going into Zeus after could be very funny.

[@freek-tay6985]

You seem like a great dad keep up the good work king 👑

[@Baby-Blue-102]

Twin twisters is better then cosmic cyclone by default imo. Happy to see it in this deck Looks like I have another combo or control deck to consider next to geist and traptrix

[@jamesragan7495]

This is sweet, but I'm still sitting here hyped up and waiting for the Cyber Dragon deck you talked about to drop👀

[@turtletime1227]

Just a heads up the harvester/ anchor drill combo to make each other level 6 and then 12 isn't legal... they both change the levels to the combined ORIGINAL levels. Other than that loved the profile!

[@Philbatrom]

The most wholesome intro ever

[@rz7179]

That's why they call him Zeus. Great deck man!

[@jameisonmoore]

Dont you not get the effect of material from a xyz when detached?

[@TheStretchStacks]

That battle rap reference tho 🔥🔥🔥

[@abaki4115]

The seven sins is a good lvl 12 budget alternative to Zeus . It banishes all ss monsters

[@ETREDROOMREVIEWS]

The 6 to 12 combo you have reference multiple times doesn't work in that way because the cards specify that they become the "combined original levels" which 6 is not their original.

[@Adjaleva1]

I use E.M.R and that card gave me wins, even you can self destroy your Machines to trigger Citadel

[@nicolovanacore649]

Bruh today you're on 🔥

[@big_daddysho0t7]

Since there are a lot of level 5 machines, is cyber dragon infinity a viable strategy or no?

[@traptrix3538]

You cant make Zeus with Harvester and Anchordrill, cause both take the original level. So if you use harvester target drill they become level 6 and if you then use drill on harvester they become level 6 again.

[@ImUhMayhem]

Run a very similar deck! I love this deck!

[@jaredyoung5230]

I use a scyther card like the gengar you have as my field center card
