Top 10 Cards Which Declare Card Names

There are some cards in Yu-Gi-Oh! which require that you declare something in order to activate them and use their effect. More often than not, these activation requirements want you to declare a Card Type, Attribute or even the particular mechanic of the card, but there are also some cards which are capable of declaring a specific card’s name.
This video is going to talk about the best cards and effects which let you declare a specific card’s name, why they’re so powerful, and why card names are so integral to their particular effect.

That Sales Ban/Mystic Mine combo is insidious. Sales Ban becomes protection for MM because the destruction effect says "Destroy this card" (as in, the card forces the player to activate the effect that destroys it) and not "this card is destroyed" (exactly what it says. The card destroys itself, no player involvement required). That's some top-level rules lawyering BS and I love it!

[@leogmg]

@@JJSquirtle Oh, I see XD. Also, just realized an actual Evil Twin card is named that way. I guess it's truly a power move if you do it before you win.

[@RuriMizuno]

@Leonardo Martínez There's a Trap Card called "Evil*Twin GG EZ." I tried using it when I first made the deck, but it's not very useful, which also means it's unlikely to be used in a mirror match. However, you could theoretically run one copy just to troll your opponent with Crossout if you have game on board; that's the joke here.

[@user-hz7tt1ed8d]

In OCG there is a heavily played card called Gravekeeper's trap, which happens to also have an effect that lets you declare a card name

[@MetronaJ]

tbf it's used not because of the declare but more for the grave lock

[@alex_zetsu]

I don't think it would make the list even if it was in the TCG since even if we talked about "top cards which declare a name" instead of "top declaring name effects," it needs a named trap card that isn't splashable to work. I mean if the named card was "Starlight Road," "Boo Boo Game," "Recall," "Mystical Space Typhoon," "Anti Spell Fragrance" or instead of a named card it was "You have at most 3 types of monsters in your graveyard" then it might be good enough to make the list even if it was for the grave lock, but "Exhange of the Spirit" isn't exactly great in a lot of archetypes. True Exosister Carpedivem is not great outside it's archetype too, but I think it's better.

[@user-hz7tt1ed8d]

@@alex_zetsu In fact, decks that play this card never activate Exhange of the Spirit anyway, they just mill it from their deck, so it doesn't need to be splashable. And even if you didn't have Exhange of the Spirit in your graveyard, Gravekeeper's trap still lets you discard a card and search for Agido or Kelbek and works as a pretty good engine for milling cards, and this card itself can be searched out by Mudora. And all these cards get extra benefits for Exhange of the Spirit being in the graveyard, so playing this one Garnet isn't so bad

[@alex_zetsu]

@@user-hz7tt1ed8d Oh, I didn't realize the search function was in a separate sentence from the graveyard lock and therefore didn't need Exchange of the Spirit. I guess this makes it a bit better. It still gets awkward if you draw the garnet.

Ah, Exosister. That's my recent new favorite archetype, aside from Rikka and Valkyrie. I like the design and theme of the cards; exorcist/nuns/sisters, and the fact they can negate GV effects and summons. I've been using them a lot in Master Duel.

[@xrounder1235]

Exosister tcg player here. I liked exosister because having a decent board turn 1, turn 2 technically you can have four banish and some hand traps to interrupt your opponent. For master duel, im still waiting for exosister martha and exosister returnia and magnifica to be released.

[@Disappointed_Philosoraptor]

Surprised that "Cloak and Dagger" didn't make it into the top 10. I recently stumbled across it and am pretty amazed at how well it works. You can usually tell when someone tries to go into halq, anaconda or some other key cards of their archetype and it usually stops them dead in their tracks. Banishing the target is amazing, it completely screws so many decks, for example: live twins, prank kids, yellow boi, phantom knights etc.

[@Sanguivore]

Damn, that’s a pretty cool card! Surprised I’ve never heard of that one.

[@Arial55555]

My favorite Convulsions/Oath strategy is to play a Slifer deck- since Card Advance and The True Name also act as guessing support, give me extra summons, and let me draw tons of cards. Combined with Familiar engine (the 1500 ATK/200 DEF “Summon if you control a Spellcaster” monsters), Dark Doriado for stacking of said familiars for guessing, and Rouge of Endymion/Magical Broker for continuous spell support (in addition to being 1500/200, and thus searchable by the familiars, in addition to being Spellcasters so the familiars can summon themselves). And for fun: triple Peten The Dark Clown, for when I guess wrong with Oath (and again, is a Spellcaster for familiar summoning).

[@alex_zetsu]

That sounds so cool. That said, I don't really see the appeal of Archfiend's Oath. Unless you get at least 4 cards out of it or need your LP below a certain amount, I think the one use Upstart goblin is better.

[@Arial55555]

@@alex_zetsu I like it because it's a soft once per turn- so I can have multiple up at a time. On top of that, in a Slifer deck, Upstart is card neutral (so Slifer won't gain ATK), whereas Oath (as long as it remains on the field) will eventually net hand profit, so long as you are playing deck-stacking cards. And again, if you guess wrong, it's a free mill tool for graveyard card effects- especially so if you stack them on purpose. But yeah Upstart is a way better card for the sake of an always-reliable draw and general deck thinning.

Was working on a 5-headed dragon mega retrain, and this list gave me an idea to merge two of its old effects together and make a new one that declares names, (one that I’ve posted on this channel over and over frankly as I try to get feedback to adjust it to perfection) and I DO want this proofread if anyone has the time: _Seven-Headed Pendulum Dragon_ (DARK) Level 12 Pendulum effect: _During any turn, You may banish any number of Dragon/Wyrm monsters with different attributes from your hand, field or GY; activate the following effect(s) depending on the attribute(s) of the monster banished. You can then special summon this card from your pendulum zone, ignoring its summoning conditions, after this effect resolves (You may only use each of these effects once per turn, and you cannot attack this turn):_ ⚫️: FIRE: Destroy 1 card on the field⚫️: WATER: add 1 card from either GY to either players hand, OR gain 4000 LP⚫️: WIND: shuffle 1 card in either players hand into their deck⚫️ EARTH: Target 1 facedown card on the field; It cannot be destroyed by battle or card effect until the end of next turn⚫️ DARK: Negate the effects of 1 card on the field until the end of this turn⚫️ LIGHT: 1 monster on the field gains original ATK and/or DEF equal to the ATK or DEF of the monster banished for this effect (your choice) ⚫️ DIVINE: both players Flip all their cards on the field facedown; immediately afterwards special summon 1 Divine-Beast monster from your hand, deck or GY, ignoring its summoning conditions. That summoned card cannot be removed from the field by its own effects while it is face-up on the field. Pendulum Scale: *0* [Dragon/Pendulum/Fusion/Effect] 7+ Dragon or Wyrm Monsters _Must either be fusion summoned with the above cards or pendulum summoned. This card can only be destroyed by DIVINE monsters or battle by LIGHT monsters. Once per turn (quick effect), you may place this card in your pendulum zone. Once per turn (quick effect), you can change the type and attribute of any monsters on the field or in your hand. You can use each of the following effects once per turn (quick effect):_ ⚫️ Declare the name of one effect monster on the field or in either players GY; banish it, then special summon 1 non-effect monster from your hand, deck, or extra deck with the same type and attribute as it. That card summoned by this effect gains the name and effects of the card who’s name you declared for the rest of the duel. ⚫️Banish cards up to 7 cards from your hand or extra deck; Special summon 1 pendulum monster to your main monster zones and/or place them in your pendulum zones from your hand or extra deck (face-up or facedown) for every card banished. (Banish/destroy any cards occupying any zone you would summon/place your pendulum monster to.) _After this effect resolves, cards you control cannot attack or deal effect damage to your opponent until the end of your next turn._ ATK/5000 DEF/5000 One thing in particular: I was thinking of changing the EARTH pendulum effect from as it is now to _Declare the name of 1 field spell card in your hand or deck; The field is treated as that card until the next time you activate this effect_ … Would THAT be better? (I’m basing this effect off of _Maiden Of Aqua)_ The first plays into the EARTH motif as EARTH being tough and difficult to damage, the new one plays into this idea of EARTH as the environment around you being terraformed.

As a Dark World player I’m sad he didn’t mention the old Mind Crush strategy in that deck: you play Dragged Down Into The Grave to see your opponents hand and get hand knowledge and discard advantage then activate Mind Crush asap and discard another card from their hand giving you card advantage. Or you can blindly name a card forcing you to discard a card and then you can combo off with that. So either way the card is a win-win

[@alex_zetsu]

I _love_ the Dragged Down Into the Grave followed by Mind Crush tactic. Funny thing I once told someone Mind Crush was a good counter if you knew what your opponent had in the hand. So my friend went to a tournament and he said he was 75% sure the guy's hand included Mystical Space Typhoon, Lucent, Netherlord of Dark World, Anti Spell Fragrance, Dragged Down Into The Grave, and a fiend. I have no idea how he would know this turn 4 on his 2nd duel when they guy didn't search (early on in the tournament, you see people like my friend who have bad decks, hency why some guy with got to turn 4 without search and didn't get wiped out), but he was right. The other fiend was not a Dark world card. So my friend called... Lucent. If you knew the guy ran MST instead of twin twisters, why didn't you call that? Any advice on how to make a decent Dark World gimmick deck? So I know the Fabled Archetype has effects that are easier to trigger, but I just like Dark World. I'm trying to aim for a Dark World Deck that can make Synchro plays and minimize Fableds except their turners (there aren't too many good fiend tuners). The Gimmick I'm going for is having a 47 card deck that includes 1 Royal Writ of Taxation, 1 Deck Devastation Virus, 1 Ominous Fortunetelling, 1 Ambitious Gofer, 1 Summoned Skull, 3 Dragged Down Into the Grave, and 3 Mind Crush. For the Dark World Monsters I so far have 3 Lucent, Netherlord of Dark World, 3 Snoww, Unlight of Dark World, 3 Broww, Huntsman of Dark World, 1X Grapha, Dragon Lord of Dark World, and 1 Beiige, Vanguard of Dark World. I do't know what tuners to use. Just as the Duel Logs once had the gimmick of life point milling (I hope he makes one this month), I'm going to style here. The three themes I'm going for are Dark World discard and swarm, some Synchro plays, and discarding by Mind Crush. I'm not going for maximum consistency here, but I want to make my deck perform as well as possible under the bloat.

You can actually use archfiend’s oath with illusion of chaos

[@tnuhenaj3752]

Doesn’t sylvan use archfiend’s oath now? Not now but when people go back to play the historical format that sylvan’s were prominent in, recent innovation is that archfiend oath is run in sylvan. At least that’s what I was told. I don’t know if it would change its place in the list at all.

Suggestion: Top 10 OCG cards that are banned, but not in TCG (but not limit nor semi-limited, and also vice versa for TCG to OCG for 2 videos), and why they haven't banned.

[@Nocturne524]

Top 10 cards that want their own effects negated Inspired by a certain spider's Crazy Box turbo deck

[@biobroly9324]

Top 10 cards with unique 1 of a kind effects. Examples Convulsion of nature, Yu-jo friendship, Linear line equation and Parasite paradide

[@zaidhernandez4601]

Ooh I like these

[@senyikan3849]

Something that was used at euros with Carpedivem is play it with Mystic mine, Mine your opponent on their turn, and on your turn you declare mystic mine and you play like normal

[@67benn1995]

How about either top sets that had the biggest change in the competitive game or top ten archetypes that changed drastically over the years (either for the better or worse)

[@melvinshine9841]

Not sure if a "Top 10 Cards That Can Type/Archetype Lock You" list could even work. Top 10 Rekindling Targets Top 10 Searchers That Only Search One Specific Card Top 10 Odd Eyes Cards Top 10 Best/Worst That Can Miss Timing

[@DefNotChamp]

Imagine if a Duel Logs card gets printed in the future or a joke type monster called Dueling Logs (just tree monster with sword) 🤣

[@alexanderrobins7497]

Inpachi wood be a good secondary mascot for the channel.

[@Prince_Eva_Huepow]

Akiza be proud

[@naknampucha5236]

Arcfiend's oath seems nice for a zombie deck though, espicially you'll send it to the GY if you called it wrong.

[@cptrevenant4088]

Playing P.U.N.Ks in Master Duel rn and im loving them. Though i need to tune it up abit for it to be really good

[@katzuma7641]

Imagine if psi-blocker was an e- tele target

[@peter-rg9jf]

You can use archfiend oat as a gimmicky mill card as well

[@justinjones7411]

Top best cards that references the anime.

[@benallmon5613]

I wonder how good Lullaby of Obedience would be against a Spright mirror match. Side deck it, play it Declaring Spright Blue, then the 1 card combo is always live. 🤔

[@mfznal-hafidz8592]

Alternative Title: Top 10 cards that are countered by Engraver of the Mark

[@Prince_Eva_Huepow]

Bigger Boot!

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

Doesn’t _Crossout Designator_ have a hard counter in the form of _Engraver Of The Mark_ ?

[@BoardingPilot]

So what you’re saying is top ten targets for engraver of the mark

[@Kawaiisikkusu]

Honorable mention Engraver of the Mark. Basically if opponent activates card that has card name declaring effect, you discard this card to gy and change the declared name to whatever you want.

[@halodragonmaster]

This list is a top 10 list for cards of Engraver of the mark to hit.

[@myon8533]

Top 10 monsters that cannot attack

[@stephbenson7340]

If you play Lullaby of Obedience and you declare a monster name your opponent doesn't have in their deck, wouldn't they have to let you search their entire deck to verify that?

[@howlingwolfart8380]

I know the OCG is a different beast than the TCG since they have some cards that we don't, but I find it so weird that they have Upstart Goblin at unlimited in the OCG and we still have it at limited here.

[@SidneyMosley]

Can we get a top Six Samurai video?

[@sugarsmile7852]

Or you could use sales ban on amano-iwato so it can't return to the hand and have some duel standby flashback

[@juanitoalcachofa4772]

I remember watching a ftk with pay blocker and a loop to gain infinity LP so he can declare every card in the game

[@JIMBO8472]

valkyrie goddess cards. love them. rearange top deck guess type call the name banish
