Its kinda sad that the first wave of support for this archetype is already better than the entirety of Tistina

[@Senshi00]

No one cares about Tistina

[@Marcioknight]

@@Senshi00 thats the point, the archetype released last year, got 2 waves of support and it did absolutely nothing, while Fiendsmith hasn't even been released and it is already miles better than it with half the amount of cards

[@markburns2621]

It was actually weird that it had an actual set strategy of kill by 9k through an upstart and then the second wave came out and made everything make less sense.

The fact they don’t have restrictions really is gonna be a problem eventually. The level 6 searching the token spell sanctus gives you an 1 card high king caesar and neither card locks you into fiends

im having the feeling unchained is going to love this engine.

[@jimtsap04]

Unchained yubel and now fiendsmith, year of the fiends much?

[@kcguardian]

It'll be interesting, though with this archetype as a starter you can't search for your other fiends since it limits searches to light in particular. Unchained is multiple attributes and none of them are light.

[@wren5413]

I really like this trend of the searcher being a fusion spell in gy, probably the best thing they can do for fusion decks without having it becoming another branded style dies to ash deck, but with infinitely less support

[@jacobwoodard818]

You can combine the Magical Musketeer with Fiendsmith and a small Yubel package designed to bring out the Yubel promo so we can negate Ash Blossom and force Max to go off.

[@reservationatdorsias3215]

This is nice and all, but there were announcements recently that Musketeers and a couple others are getting high rarity reprints. And now they recieved indirect support. Guess who else got those reprints: THUNDER DRAGONS ARE BACK BABY, LETS GOOOOOOO! (but please keep colossus locked up).

[@Ragnarok540]

The funny thing is: Colossus at 1 does absolutely nothing. Source: I play MD.

Finally, new support for my Magical Muskeeter

[@Sorahx1]

One card Caesar on ANY DECK for free is just too good. You can also do fun stuff with Beatrice but i think Caesar is definitely the star of the show.

[@SupaSneech]

Beatrice with the traps goes crazy but as a d/d player I agree

[@erie4237]

This magic is support fabled, add fabled grimro discard any card, grimro search any fabled, in runick fabled search cerburrel or kruz to use from hugin extended cerburrel or kruz from spam summons.

Magical Musket support

[@hfforge5383]

Fiend link just dropped

[@employment2349]

Pretty epic

[@lun-gi-oh1556]

Josh. With the Fusion monster. If your opponent stacks a chain with multiple face-up cards you can add the Fusion to end of the chain to negate multiple cards. It will definitely come up when you play into fields or when your opponent is trying to break your field.

[@M.Y.D96]

I was testing a small engine of this in purrely for the lols. 3 Fiendsmith, 1 sanctus, 1 requiem and 1 wave high king caesar. 2 extra interuptions on a normal purrely endboard. Edit: Can side a beatrice, transaction rollback and the shiranui trap for a turn skip. So they stop the turn skip and you just play normal purrely.

[@lmr4403]

I am already afraid of 1 card Beatrice-transaction rollback lock.

[@karuptedninja2000]

The trap is solid just because it's 2 interrupts by itself cause both effects can be used in the same turn

[@PyckledNyk]

Plus Rollback

[@flyingchicken973]

Any deck that can make a rank 3 or 4 or any deck that can make a synchro 5 can get access to the link 1 which could be interesting

[@6210classick]

Once Moon Goddess is released in the TCG, it'll be any 2 Effect monsters

This is a magical musket and Fabled supports, more into fabled since that single spell card become one card starter for fabled.

[@Reallynotabot101]

Magical musket support?

[@qazaq25]

Assuming you can reliably make and equip the big fusion I'd say the trap is perfectly fine. Its searchable so you don't need to play multiple if you don't want to, its high impact when activated and if you are able to hold the links negation it should be fairly reliable as a board wipe. Alone thats not quite there for a trap but the graveyard effect being able to function as removal or a different means of equipping the links kind of gets it there

[@FujisakiChihiro55]

Problem is most of the time you kinda have to search for another cards like the token for the combo instead of the trap so even tho it's technically searchable it's not the thing you would search for unless you already opened your other 2 target.

[@FaolanKitekaze]

Fiendsmith fabled chimera sounds fun

[@RGARDL]

Going 2nd Fiendsmith/Musketeer might be nuts , link into the vrains ,then go into max , then max effect , then u can use max as the material for Fiendsmith Link, then go into fusions , not bad

[@HIMMBelljuvo]

First since old Yubel and Evil Eyes that I've been so excited for a fiend archetype

[@RGARDL]

Light Fiends , all effects and fusions are also for Light Fiends , is this Magical musketeer support ???

Quite promising yes. It's basically tier 0 now.

[@davidwilkinson5512]

I mean I think the traps fine in the current format especially, wiping the field with fire king island up is huge, island will pop any floaters that recur which seems good

[@FujisakiChihiro55]

Problem with the trap wasn't that it wasn't good, the problem is that you only have 1 spell/trap searcher which you'll used to search for another cards to do the combo so until we see another searcher the trap will probably not see play.

[@davidwilkinson5512]

Thats true but I imagine thrust or traptrick in the maindeck could help alleviate the issue

[@FujisakiChihiro55]

​@@davidwilkinson5512you aren't gonna play Trap Trick just for the trap it aren't that impactful.

I think magical musketeer is the bes deck for this cause u can target 1 magical musketeer monster with the trap, cann trigger the effect and still keep cards in hand an use them from hand. Its rly cool the deck with magical musketeer and maybe this deck go tier 1 depend on banlist

[@FujisakiChihiro55]

The trap target level 7 or higher, you aren't gonna play the high level Musket.

[@aksshaggy2100]

I like the Fiendsmiths, I just feel there aren't a lot of good Light Fiend cards to play this with. You could play Magical Muskets and the board could look like the big fusion, Beatrice (Transaction Rollback and Ghost Meets Girl sent) and a Magical Musket plus however many spell/trap cards you draw for turn, but I just feel thats kinda inconsistent even with the Light Fiend ROTA. As for Live Twin, the banishing and shuffling of cards hurt the main strategy of keeping the Twins in grave. Fabled sadly aren't all Light Fiends, so yea. Overall, I like these cards. It's just an issue of finding a home for it.

[@FujisakiChihiro55]

1 card rank 6 make King Caesar for Nib protection without normal will see play anywhere that can slot in just 7 main deck and 2 extra deck.

[@aksshaggy2100]

@FujisakiChihiro55 you might be right, I just feel that's such a shame for an arguably cool deck to just end up as an Adventure 2.0 engine. Also, I messed up reading the spell, it doesn't banish the material, just the spell card. It's actually a lot better.
