Oh man I didn't think of this when the post went up, but Thunder Seahorse was potentially the most powerful searcher ever printed EXCEPT that they hard OPTd it in an era when that wasn't standard, and locked you out of special summons.

[@snowboundwhale6860]

Reading that card, it is absolutely a play on sea dragons and Thunder Dragon, which is pretty fun. Setting aside the restrictions it basically is a Thunder Dragon but for 1 level lower & more generic.

[@nolchannel4950]

That's not a bad card though. Until Shock Master was banned, the resulting Hunder deck was a good antimeta pick to Dragon Rulers, able to reliably drop Rank 3s, sealing monster effects and winning on tempo. Montreal also topped a YCS.

[@TheMightofDab]

My favourite example of this is Crystal Abundance; non-targeting non-destruction board wipe, then you get a full board of material with no restrictions. The downside? Playing Crystal Beasts and getting 4 in the backrow before you can activate it. Oh and if it gets negated, you auto lose due to losing so much card advantage

[@joanaguayoplanell4912]

Well, with the new boss monster, Rainbow Dragon Overdrive, it has become outright obsolete. Overdrive uses resources from the GY, doesn't need to be searched, can either be a nuke or a 11k beater, is a quick effect, spins back to the deck to stop any floating, and always gives you 5 materials. Also because of the rest of the structure deck, the Crystal Beast archetype no longer qualifies as bad.

I'll just mention the oldest card that might fall into this list: Fuh-Rin-Ka-Zan. To activate it, you have to have a Wind, Water, Fire, AND Earth monster(s) on the field. Then you can either Raigeki, Harpie's Feather Duster, Delinquent Duo, or Pot of Greed. All on a normal trap with no once per turn in sight. There are a small amount of monsters that can meet its requirements on their own, the only ones off the top of my head being Doriado and E-Hero Electrum. And there are plenty of archetypes that could use this card. Why don't they? It's too slow. If it were a spell with those same requirements, it would see play in every multi-attribute deck.

[@SicilianAmericanDreams]

I remember struggling to make that card work back in the day, but actually with new Ancient Warrior spell coming out in DIFO that deck can consistently pull that off now

[@Phantom_of_Black]

Sacred Beasts have a few cards that fit on this list. Awakening - 3 floodgate effects on 1 card. One name on board and you have a permanent superior version of Ghost Sister and Spooky Dogwood's effect. Two names and you have basically a one-sided Skill drain. Three and you get a one-sided Dimension Fissure. It's just that you need to play more than 1 name to make use of it's actual good effects. Fallen Paradise - If you have a Sacred beast on board and you activate this card it gives them targeting and destruction immunity and it is a Pot of Greed that on the next turn is just a free +2. Cerulean Skyfire - Not the best by a long shot but it is kinda nuts that Konami kinda invented Spell Speed 5 negation just for this not very good card in a really not good archetype. Its negation is not an activated effect and it doesn't negate effects or activations but the resolution of effects so it can stop Solemn Judgement and Super Poly and its negation cannot be responded to at all.

Superheavy Samurai cards. Sure you have to either banish all your spell traps, or not play any, but: Soulpiercer is a non-opt rota for the deck. Wagon searches the Soul cards.

[@antonemy6973]

A friend and I have been trying to make Solfachord moderately competitive for the past year, and we have some pretty good builds that can stand up to tier 1 strategies. The deck is honestly good in the purest context. It is not overly strong, it is not embarrassingly weak, it's just standard good. However, when modern Yu-Gi-Oh demands a lot of disruption to just stop your opponent from playing the game, a deck that doesn't do that just doesn't hold up to ones that do. Solfachord honestly needs some more link monsters that have quick effect disruption of some kind, a couple S/T cards, and slight reworks on the monsters due to their effects and stats just not making sense and begging the question, why? Small World would have been the best support for this deck, allowing you to go from any Solfachord into any Solfachord, since they don't share any levels, are all fairy, share 4 attributes through the archetype, and don't have the same attack. Sadly, the four "starters" (I'll talk about this later) all share the same defense for no reason. I just have to ask why? Out of the deck's "starters," of which I mean can be normal summoned and do something, only 2 have an effect that let's you do something. Cutia searches a Solfachord monster, but if she is negated, if you don't have the right hand, that is most likely your turn. Dreamia is an extender to go into a good link-2 like Musecia, but not a real starter herself. Eliteia bounces a S/T which is TOTALLY useful going first, so again, not a real starter. Finally, Fancia let's you add a Solfachord to your extra deck face up, which is a starter. Gracia has a starter effect of adding a S/T, but she is a level 5, why? Why not give the bounce effect to Gracia and the S/T search effect to Eliteia? It would make the deck quite a bit more consistent going first. It doesn't make sense why the majority of monster effects are hard once per turns. Coolia is not that good of a boss monster due to her effect having destruction of a monster that has activated its effect that is hard once per turn. Why? I understand that Konami doesn't want every Pendulum archetype to be negate spam, that' not the issue, the issue is that the destruction of only ONE monster ON THE FIELD is usually not enough to truly disrupt your opponent. Formal is purely defensive, but a hard once per turn (I don't think it would be too strong having no once per turn restriction but maybe not.) On the flip side, only Beautia and Coolia have legitimate quick effects, most of the rest are on summon effects, which is SO useful during your opponent's turn, the turn where you can't summon but once, ONLY IF you have Musica set with a valid target in your extra deck. Finally, you have effects that have better forms in other decks, I again just have to ask why? Both Gracia and Angelia (Named every single one 👍) have text that reads "While you have an X Pendulum Scale in your Pendulum Zone, if your 'Solfachord' Pendulum Monster attacks, your opponent cannot activate X (cards or) effects until the end of the Damage Step" for both monsters and S/T respectively. I can't for the life of me think of why they would make these say ATTACKS instead of battles. Th second would be so much more useful and other cards already have this kind of text, so why can't the pendulum waifus? So, I'll restate, Solfachord honestly needs some more link monsters that have quick effect disruption of some kind, a couple S/T cards, and slight reworks on the monsters. But it's pretty fun, Pend best deck, I have done my duty for the Waifus. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk against your will

Because galaxy literally requires every card in your hand to make a combo and if you just dont have a strong galaxy eyes it's a brick

[@BandannaBread]

With the Blackwing Simon the Poison Wind, the normal summon doesn’t actually take up your normal summon for the turn. It just summons it to trigger the effect meaning that you have another normal summon still for however many black whirlwinds you have (let’s go with 2 for this example). If you manage to get out Nothung then you have a third normal summon that turn meaning you get to add a total of 6 cards off of black whirlwind. One black whirlwind is destroyed during the end phase of course, but you can get around this by returning it to the hand with Zephos the Elite (I’m not good with the first names for these things). It’s a pretty good combo overall, but blackwings don’t have much in the way of negates so they’re not going to be anything amazing. Just wanted to say something to clear up that bit.

[@GRSZiik]

Mostly because the actual monsters themselves are kinda terrible. I messed about with Ogdoadic Aliens in Master Duel though, and Slicer + Kid is insane - and Slicer can search Kid on summon - and then summon it. Any special summoned monster on your opponents field cannot activate it's effects. They're negated, but they also can't, like, tribute themselves as cost to get around it.

And it’s a continuous trap you can use every turn, it’s legit an entire archetype in one card. But you have to play 1 or two Gemini monsters ( pheonix gearfried + evocateur) to make it live 🤢 It would prob be better if it was a fucking normal trap so you could get to it from trap trick and not have to run 2 for 3 play set of dead cards.

i loved DAMA support for gusto, but if you notice all of those 3 new cards require you to have resources in hand, vedir summons a gusto from hand, laplam needs a gusto in hand, tailwind's search needs another gusto in hand. This forces you to play a more pure build if you want to use them all. It would fit better if gustos had a reliable way to generate advantage and they don't (sphreez is a good one but not enough IMO) Now, i know that the plan is not to use every single Gusto card effect every turn, nor make it more engine-like (i personally like pure gusto builds), but i think it's a bit weird that konami gave support cards that have the same needs also laplam's role is a bit underwhelming synchro monster for the time it was released

[@MasterQuestMaster]

Laplam would be much better if the summon from hand was optional. I rarely have enough gustos in hand.

I swear U.A. has so many decent cards that once they actually become a good deck they will be busted af. Kinda like spyral, actually exactly like spyral.

Fortune lady really hurts, cause the theme is so good and yet the whole archetype is crap. As for Bujins it's classic case of power creep.

their gimmick is crap now because of how fast the game is

fluffal cat + wings + toy vendor combo is honestly incredible. It just sucks that the deck dies to anything resembling interaction

Personal gripe, revolving switchyard is potentially game breaking. But why does it PREVENT BATTLE DAMAGE when you use its amazing effect Or infinitrack dozer locking me into earth when it gives me cyber dragon infinity turbo

[@thelegendarybrosif9595]

I love that Crystal Beasts have some of the best spell and traps for searching, negation, revival and Consistency but is held back by having 2 1/2 good monsters to use them on.

I actually did pretty well with Simoon in my blackwing deck.

[@xem2476]

Simoon is the best card in the deck after all it should always be played at 3

[@izukazephoenix]

@@xem2476 simoon has some of the silliest things to happen. esp. if you end up drawing one of your other black whirlwinds in your hand before you use him.

@@izukazephoenix it is one of those decks where you're either drawing the nuts, or just suffering though. But Blackwings/RR can make some disgusting boards going first

[@scootlaboot9666]

@@Arbal3st yeah, my blackwing deck has raidraptors splashed in for that reason. The deck OTKs consistently enough, but if it bricks, it bricks hard.
