Invoked Engine Explained Very Quickly and Easily - Yugioh

[What the engine does]
Normal summon Aleister The Invoker and use its effect to search Invocation from the deck. Then, link off Aleister into Salamangreat Almiraj and that into Secure Gardna. Activate Invocation to fuse away Gardna and the Aleister in your graveyard for Invoked Mechaba. Finally, use Invocation’s graveyard effect to shuffle itself back into the deck to bring you Aleister back to your hand from the banished zone.
For turn 3, you can then use Aleister to go into either Invoked Purgatrio or Invoked Augoeides to clear your opponent’s field and attack for game.
[What are the ratios?]
The most common way to run this engine is with three Aleister The Invoker, three Magical Meltdown, one Terraforming and two Invocation in the main deck. For the extra, you run two Invoked Mechaba, one Invoked Purgatrio, one Invoked Augoides for the fusions and one Salamangreat Almiraj plus a Secure Gardna for the links

[@adriannaranjo4397]

Probably bc they are gonna turn it into a short

[@Pr1est0fDoom]

The Invoked-Dogmatika-Shaddoll amalgamation was peak Yu-Gi-Oh! for me. Cards that were initially designed as separate archetypes ending up working really well together years later is what separates this game from other TCG's.

[@Necroxion]

And now, Despia and Eldlich can also be splashed into it

[@renaldyhaen]

Invoked Dogma Shaddol and the bosses only use boss from their arctype only. It is a good combination but still keep the value of each arctypes.

I'm loving the idea of this series ...please send make more engine vids. Helps keep casuals like me in the loop. appreciate ya fam

[@livingalife8879]

Ive always ran it with spellbook. Its not op but allows for constant fusions. Only downside is relying on the enemy to have attribute monsters (easy to draw poorly early game and struggle though)

[@travis51killer01]

with my mekks and invoked i also use super poly, so if they get through mekaba, i can take their first or more important extra deckk summon to make an Elysium

[@GobTheSnail]

Everyone always forgets Omega Summon is a card that exists. Sure, it’s definitely not the best trap card, but it’s good/ decent against a deck that banishes their opponent’s monsters

I have an idea for a video that I would love to see...I was wondering what would happen if Konami unbanned Sixth Sense, would it destroy the game or just make it interesting ( and alot faster than it already is )? My first thought was Dragon Rulers are still banned so I'd like to see them try it, then I considered its interactions with Tearalement and that would definitely be crazy 🤪 I hope so see a video soon hearing your opinions on this subject

I swear the editors always get confused with the different borrel dragons.. its probably because they dont play ygo themselves but whenever logs talks about any borrel dragon the wrong one is shown on screen...

Fun fact: Aleister is related to the Prophecy archetype (where Spellbooks come from), which is also related lore-wise to the Endymion archetype (the Spell Counter one).

[@CrnaStrela]

@@zaleww5824 yes, all 3 of the ultimate spellcasters (Endymion, Verre, and Aleister) were part of Magistus where they found book of law and attempted to summon the deity to enhance their power. Zoroa, their leader and seemed to be Crowley/Aleister brother figure, nominated himself to be the first one to try. They planned everything including fail safe plans in the case of something happened, but on the day of the summon, things got out of control really fast, Zoroa burnt into ashes with the deity he summoned. This event basically split all 3 of them, Endymion created a whole new magic society to collect and seal dangerous magical artifacts so there wouldn't be any other accident like Zoroa, Verre turned herself into younger looking girl and formed the society of magic craftsman where they made golem and magic tools. Crowley went to steal the book of law that turned into a staff, he named himself Aleister the invoker, it was unknown what was his goal is, but from the alt art of invocations, it seems that he was experimenting a way to invoke Zoroa's soul and resurrect him.

Unchained archetype! Not sure if that’s really an engine even though it kind of has the ability to function as one

[@safeandsound712]

Yo your editor put borreload Savage in the part where you mentioned borrelsword dragon. Simple mistake but their functions are very very different

[@joshuahadams]

Artemis, the Magistus Moon Maiden is a nice way to slim down your extra deck since she just needs a level 4 or lower Spellcaster

[@joaopedroribeiro1483]

Purgatrio is way to good to give up

[@lemlem35]

It can be really nice to have the artemis in decks that cant fit the 2 links

[@renaldyhaen]

Play all Artemis, Almiraj, and Secure Gardna. Artemis is good for go 1st to make the summon faster and less than 5 summon. But in 2nd, Almiraj sometimes better to close the game faster.

[@thedramapt2]

wait mr. Logs, you forget to explain how to alway get Aleister or Invocation on the opening hand by manifesting it through thin air

[@bishopcole6723]

Hey quick question. I understand cards like upstart goblin are arguably good. But why? It gives you plus one. Which is awesome. But if you didn't have that card in your deck, wouldn't you have just drawn a different instead?

[@CrnaStrela]

It slim down the size of the deck, instead of playing 40 cards like others, you play 37. This is why pot of greed would never be unbanned, you are basically playing 34 cards deck with it, making it super consistent for you to get your keycards and combo pieces.
