Top 10 Fusion Monsters With Alternate Summon Conditions

[@nacl4988]

Before I even watch the video, Number 1 is gonna be Thunder Dragon Collosus right? Unless I'm missing someone.

[@royalcamel8167]

Love Colossus. My favorite end board in Master Duel ends on Colossus/Dark Law pass. Sometimes if I get enough gas, I can get Titan in there too.

[@siftheadsdude]

I was about to say the same thing lol

[@DoubledeckManwhich]

@@royalcamel8167as a thunder dragon main in master duel, I never thought of that. I usually just end with DPE and colossus. But yeah if you manage to draw mask change 2 one way or another you can get all three actually. Just activate mask change on chain to andecondas effect and you get two floodgates and interruption

[@babagryva5954]

Its gyzarus because glads are goated

[@royalcamel8167]

@@DoubledeckManwhich Yep. I straight up built a pure Thunder Dragon list with 40 cards, and sprinkled 2 Mask Change 2 and Dark Law on top. It isn't the most consistent, but it's very fun when it goes off. I recommend. Lol

[@anarki4717]

Gyzarus is one of the reasons I love the Gladiator Beasts to this day and while no longer competitive they are to this day my go to deck

[@stevedave8415]

They are still use them beat branded and reap decks easily also help now combing with tri bridge

[@fruitlion8]

The Gladiator Beasts will always be my favourites. Tamer Editor deserves a mention - it's practically our ace monster!

[@Deathmare235]

Even dominatus should’ve got a mention

[@stevenceja4706]

Nerokius too, being able to bypass battle traps was really good in its day

[@musti4972]

Those monsters never had any meta relevence tho. Gyzarus is from a time where gladiator beasts were one of the top meta decks and that's why you usually see Gyzarus in those top lists instead of cards like Tamer Editor or Domitianus (even tho they are technically better). also glads rule!

[@stefansimonka]

Thank you for your continued hard work. Really, really enjoying your videos. Much love from Croatia.

[@stevenceja4706]

You're forgetting the all powerful Armityle The Chaos Phantom 😂😂😂

[@tiagogestosa6147]

There is a new one called Phantom of Fury that allows you to summon the original.

[@stinkyroadhog1347]

I feel Colossus should come to 1 in the TCG. It's at 1 in MD and isn't that oppressive

[@MrDonBesoffski]

I know its dumb, but i had to Smirk a little when he said "Alarmduke" instead of Almarduke haha

[@KaiserRika]

Always happy to see Glad Beasts get a mention.

[@lamronjr8785]

One of the greatest decks of all time and held on to their power for nearly 2 years

[@joshuarivera9668]

It is something to be glad about!

[@kaizerhakim1129]

Eventhough they could still pull out a decent board these days, still hoping they'll get more support Where's my Wolf Gladiator Konami?

[@totalwartimelapses6359]

You should've said "always glad to see"

[@KaiserRika]

@@totalwartimelapses6359 I did think about it but I didn't want to say glad twice in one sentence.

[@DoubledeckManwhich]

Here’s my favorite part about colossus. Since it is a fusion monster, that means you summon it with a face down thunder monster. That means that you can dodge nibiru (since it doesn’t count set cards) and the point of cards like book of moon. My favorite way to use this effect is to get colossus even through zombie world. Thunder dragon monsters are still thunder monsters when they activate in hand, and zombie world only affects monsters face up. Which means you can still 100% fulfill colossus alternate summon. I also sometimes dodge maxx c in master duel since sometimes they don’t have it on so a set doesn’t trigger the response window and then I can summon colossus without feeding a draw.

[@TheChipmania]

Little sad not to see this, but anytime dragon link pops up to by the best deck, I have 2 words; Alba-Lenatus.

[@alialluaibi3008]

Please do Top 10 archetypes with multiple different extra deck monster, they need to have more than 2 types because almost all of the archetypes in the game received a link monster !

[@azuredragoon2054]

Cyber Dragons ought to take a spot simply for Chimeratech Fortress/Megafleet since those two cards are contact removal.

[@Bigparr43]

Dude, what is with your pronunciation on some of these cards?

[@TearsofaMermaid]

Another thing that makes Thunder Dragon Colossus OP is that its protection effect is not an active effect so it can bypass certain negates too.

[@l3oogle]

1. Top ten generic >insert type/attribute< support. 2. Top weird 'tricks' e.g macro cosmo+grave keeper = opponent can't attack

[@shapular]

Starving Venom can't cheat hard once per turns since it copies the name. Also Aloof Lupine came out after the Thunder Dragons. Synchros that can treat non-tuners as tuners next?

[@quattrokerbecs]

Gyzarus: *is a dark attribute* DL: "So this is a WIND Winged-Beast type monster..."

[@cptrevenant4088]

Love the T-Dragons. Colossus is so stupidly busted in terms of summon abilities that its ridiculous.

Why has there never been a D E F fusion monster that is a wall? It jist writes itself

[@drgonserpent]

I still play ABC I recently made a 60 card ABC pile it's about as good as you think it would be

[@RedDevilVR]

1:20 Gladiator beasts. Lots of good points however I do remember Elemental Heroes being pretty good at this time as they had a ton of cards that let them fuse and they also had plenty of extra deck monsters to use by this time

[@alexford779]

you can't fusion summon dark law so is mask change a alternate summoning condition? I don't think so

[@OwenLeBlanc-l7h]

Honestly Gladiator beasts can still occasionally do well in best of one formats like the master duel ladder. Sometimes it can catch some players off guard.

[@sebarsht12]

Elder Entity N'tss' summoning condition is Konami's way of preventing it from being abused like Norden. - Requiring a synchro and xyz specifically and not any combo of the 2, was to answer Zoodiacs - Requiring a contact Fusion instead of normal fusion was to answer Zoodiacs playing fusion substitute to summon Nordon...... Zoodiacs nerfed N'tss

[@relicking9207]

Dark Law is good until you're playing against a deck that wants to banish anyways

[@tiagogestosa6147]

How nostalgic the Glad Beasts, i had a deck with them. I must build another one. As for the others i have one Thunder Dragon deck, the only ones that i haven't played with are Vicious Astroud and Masked Hero. I have one Evil Hero deck. I'm playing with the spiders and ants deck right now. But today i'm going build a new one, i don't know wich one yet. Recently i had fun with Traptrix deck.

[@PipePlazaStudios]

Very funny how you mentioned ariseheart as a machine to contact fuse off for chimeratech fortress, since under its macro cosmos effect you can't actually do the contact fusion (chimeratech stipulates sending to gy as part of the summoning condition)

[@faereman]

Colossus my beloved. This guy practically summons itself, it's pretty nuts.

[@stevenceja4706]

I wish it could just be unbanned already

[@dometalican1990]

You're mispronouncing Astroud...(there's no 'L')

[@okita_souji_alter]

Hey how about top ten decks with unique strategies like the weather monsters with their canvases, tearlaments for milling and fusion summoning in the GY and Ritual beast with theor banish and tag out effects

after having my fun with EmperorStove's AFD ABC Therion deck i'm hype for Konami's next attempt to give ABC meta relevance (pls don't make the link generic this time :) )

[@KiteHacker]

Noob question: Do these monsters with their effects count as being Fusion summoned?

[@akmalfakhruddin7285]

Not all of them.

[@raystarchester3762]

Astraloud? Why?

[@kennyrobbins5657]

I assume that people correct Duel Logs’ pronunciation pretty regularly, so is the mispronunciation of words like Wyvern (WHY-vern and not WAY-vern) intentional? Kind of like “screw you pronunciation police; I’ll say what I want!”

[@melvinshine9841]

As far as I know, there's only three Synchro monsters that can be Synchro summoned without a Tuner, those being Chaos Angel, Ultimia, and that Visa Starfrost Synchro, so I don't think a list like this is even possible for Synchros.

[@trollninja904]

chimeratech fortress dragon plus clockwork night is the funniest shit ever.

[@emanuelegennari1112]

btw you made a little mistake with ulti cannahawk, because it searches a ritual beast card not monster

[@paulstokowski1466]

I ran Supereme King Dragon Starving Venom in my Odd-Eyes pendulum deck - very useful card indeed. Suprised no one actually use it nowadays.

[@NoelTinDragon]

Because Supreme King Dragon Starving Venom and Heavymetalfoes Electrumite are banned in the TCG and Pendulum decks aren't popular to use in the current TCG meta. If they weren't banned, Pendulum could be a solid rogue option

[@jamiehughes3754]

i use starving venom in my MD deck and getting two metalfoes a turn + being able to use it the next turn is crazy

[@shauntmw]

I keep hearing you say "Alarm duke". Isn't it Almarduke?

Top ten extra deck monsters that require extradeck materials

[@mitchellslaughter2963]

You call this a list of "contact fusion" monsters, yet don't include a single Neos fusion monster on it? that was a HUGE MISTAKE on your part, consider the term "contact fusion" wouldn't even EXIST in Yu-Gi-Oh without Neos. You CLEARLY don't know anything about Contact Fusion because you said Gladiator beasts pioneered it, which means you basically ignored Neos even existing, and that makes this entire list a travesty.

[@alexwithsauce2556]

It’s a list of the best, all of the Neos fusions sucked ass. And plus they even mentioned that they didn’t create contact fusing, but Glad beasts were the first GOOD contact fusions

[@JoaoGuilherme-uk3xe]

The strongest deck in toss format was Orcust imo

[@brotherhood7596]

Top 10 cards better in real life than in the anime/manga

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

Let me come up with 1 of these… I’m thinking a Five-Headed Dragon retrain, BUT you can fusion summon it by using Dragon or “Dragon” monsters you control with different attributes, and it gains immunities and effects based off of the 5 different attributes used for its summon. _Five-Disasters Dragon_ (DARK) Level 12 Dragon/Fusion/Effect 5 Dragon or “Dragon” monsters with different Original Attributes. _Must either be Fusion summoned, or summoned by its own effect. (Quick Effect) You can fusion summon this card from your extra deck by using the above cards you control as fusion materials. This fusion summoned card’s original attribute becomes the attributes of its fusion materials. Cannot be destroyed by battle by, and unaffected by the effects of, monsters with the same attribute(s). (Quick Effect) You can apply each of the following effects of “Five-Disasters Dragon” once per turn, depending on its original attribute(s): ⚫️AIR: Shuffle 1 card from either players hand, field or GY into their deck.⚫️EARTH: Add 1 Field Spell from your Field, deck or GY to your hand. ⚫️FIRE: Destroy 1 card from either players field or hand. ⚫️WATER: Add 1 card you own to your hand that is banished or from the field or GY. ⚫️DARK: Target 1 card from the field or GY: Negate that target’s effects for the rest of the turn. LIGHT⚫️: Increase or Decrease the ATK/DEF of one monster on the field by 5,000 for the rest of the turn. ⚫️DIVINE: Special Summon 1 monster from your hand, deck or GY, then increase your LP by that monster’s total ATK/DEF._ ATK/5000 DEF/5000

[@BoilingMetal65]

While I know this is an idea for a fusion card, they already made a retrain similar to this with Five-Headed Link Dragon. It’s very similar to what you’ve said, but the most notable difference is of course being a link monster.

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

@@BoilingMetal65 Yeah I know what you’re talking about… But I wanted to lean into the “Elemental Heads” thing and make the monster more attribute focused and modular.

[@dudono1744]

"Dragon" isn't an archetype and might need a shit ton of clarification text because translation. In Japanese, would it be "Dorago" monsters or "Ryu" monsters (both mean dragon) ?

[@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire]

@@dudono1744 I mean _anything_ with “Dragon” in it’s name, even if it isn’t a dragon type. Like “The Winged *_Dragon_* of Ra” (hence the inclusion of the DIVINE attribute in any of its effects).

[@musti4972]

Didn't you already make a video like this?

[@yasharthpandey6317]

You cannot make Chimeratech Fortress Dragon with Kashtira Arise-Heart. This is because Kashtira Arise-Heart's effect banishes all cards that would be sent to the graveyard, and you must be able to send the materials for Chimeratech Fortress Dragon to the graveyard to Special Summon it. Under Kashtira Arise-Heart, you cannot even Special Summon Chimeratech Fortress Dragon or Chimeratech Megafleet Dragon at all using any monsters with their Summoning conditions.

[@cerberos1]

For the other summoning mechanic there is 5 pendulum (7 if you include the 2 fusions 9 if you include the 2 xyz) 6 synchro (4 of them are ursarctic) 0 link 0 ritual There is also 1 pendulum, 2 synchro, 1 synchro pendulum and Z-arc who count as both pendulum and synchro in the anime

[@Punmaster9001]

By the time you got to #2 on the list I was thinking that people didn't think Thunder Dragon Colossus compared to the others on this list and my poor banned boi will never see love. Oh boy was I wrong! I'm an old school player who dipped out right before Synchos made the scene. I only got back into it in the last few years because of the Legacy of the Duelist game being super cheap at a video game store I go to. I was struggling with the new to me cards and decks (which is a lot of them) and decided to change my focus from trying to power through with limited knowledge, and start with a fusion monster I remembered being the fastest at the time (Twin-headed Thunder Dragon) to try and learn more about the game. I was shocked to see it had become an archetype and even more so when I found myself suddenly beating almost every computer deck with relative ease. Even then, still going off of old school thinking of LP being precious, I didn't appreciate Colossus for his abilities because I still didn't understand the deck that well, and comparing Titan's attack to Colossus's, I thought Titan was the ultimate boss of the Thunder Dragons. That is untill I started watching these videos and realized how much I had underestimated Colossus, and started to understand much fundamentally changed in the game while I was away. After seeing so many of the other cards and archytypes that have come out, I realize not only has Colossus been power crept to the point that he could come off the banned portion of the list, he is also the lynchpin of the deck. Also of note, the two monster supports that have come out, Thunderstormech and Dragonlord are both Light monsters. Including Twin-headed, that creates an imbalance of light and dark with in the archetype. Matix, OriginalTD, Hawk, Titan, Twin-headed, TSM, and Lord, vs Dark, Duo, Colossus, and Roar. Even if we ignored Twin-headed, that's still a 3:2 ratio of light to dark. I can only hope they make another dark monster or two to even things out a bit. And that's my rant.
