[@alicepryke6766]

In the OCG, you never have to pick between hand traps and board breakers. Maxx C existing means you always pick hand traps as they are relevant to draw. However, In TCG we often have to decide if we want to break a board or hand trap it, and examining what Tenpai should be doing is something we for sure have to think about

[@jovannyhernandez6530]

🐐 answer

[@FGj-xj7rd]

TCG > OCG 🗑️

[@LS-qs9ju]

Tenpai play BOTH handtraps and board breakers in the deck. Guess what, Maxx C also helps you draw the board breaker lol. Except DRNM for obvious reason.

[@tabbune]

The other half of this equation is that if you want to play against Maxx C, you're going to put in Ash Blossom anyways, so you're already 6 cards into being a handtrap pile

[@zerochill4096]

Snake-Eye is a symptom of the egregious focus of the evolutionary war between generic Extra Deck disruption pieces/OTKs and the handtraps that stop your opponent from playing the game. Even without Snake-Eye in the equation, Tenpai Dragon will still play the same way and be a top Deck because all they need is 1 of their 18 cards drawn to OTK the opponent and they can fill up the rest of the 22 with Handtraps to shut every possible play your opponent can do down. Tenpai Dragon represents the evolution of Battle Phase Deck in this evolutionary war of stupidly good generic Extra Deck monsters and Handtraps and it unfortunately leads to the situation of "I win the turn you let me play" even more

[@xCorvus7x]

But doesn't the viability of handtrap-heavy decks depend on how much handtraps affect the other decks in the format?

[@yaminegira9239]

its kinda why as much as people hate on it, kash format was great cause most people just ran board breakers. sure it was a 'draw the out format' but imo it feels a lot better than 'who has enough extenders'. like even josh's boardbreaker snake eyes at the end of the day is still snake eyes. i honestly cant believe theres people that hate on circular but look at snake eyes and say that theres a difference.

[@zerochill4096]

@@xCorvus7x There are more Handtraps than Ash and Imperm tbf, and the variety of Handtraps that are playable each format varies a lot. Droll is an excellent example of this since it's either unplayable or the most broken thing in the format. D.D. Crow and Ghost Belle can also end up being the best Handtraps of the format if there's a lot of Decks that have key GY interactions that they don't want interrupted. And if Boardbreakers end up being popular, Tenpai Dragons can add more of those in too because the core engine is flexible. Either way, the range of Handtraps existing shows that there will never be a format in where Handtraps are never good. Weaker than other options yes, but never a bad addition if it stops your opponent from achieving certain plays

[@Sparda51]

@@yaminegira9239nah, tear format was the best format. It was skill based and the way the deck worked you couldn’t stop it with a single handtrap(except shifter in most cases but not all) and or board breaker, you had to break the board with engine. Board breaker formats arent that great imo because it doesn’t feel good to just win or lose from one or two drawn board breakers and tearlament format didn’t allow you to focus hard on one way or another, it was interactive all the time, every game.

[@chaotixthefox]

​@@yaminegira9239I wil be admitting you into the asylum.

[@josephcourtright8071]

You have to play a billion hand traps, because every deck plays through one hand trap. And if someone manages to combo going 1st, then they put up so many interactions that its basically an FTK. Boards are just getting harder and harder to break with each format.

I love how the viability of modern yugioh decks literally boils down to how many handtraps you can squeeze into a list and nothing else. It doesn't even matter what the deck does as long as it can one card combo and can run 15+ non engine.

[@masterh2o2]

I wished @Ignister was meta because of that.

[@PyroniumZ]

Not always, but some formats yes

[@Exisist5151]

The thing with these decklists is sometimes they’ll just win, that’s a fact. It’ll happen. They’ll open crazy and you won’t open enough. That won’t be a majority of games though. If the format continues to look this way, we’ll see a rise in Crossout, Called by, as well as Talents & Thrust to punish the number of handtraps being thrown around. A lot of the innovation going forward is going to be in deckbuilding and not gameplay. This is going to be for making the deck that is most resilient to handtraps. On your end what you should do is: Decide what non-engine cards are common in the meta, if you’re going to play around them, & how you’re going to address them.

[@jasontu2636]

@@masterh2o2ignister always gets random tops in ocg

[@traplover6357]

That's because even if you run board breakers, you still need to have an actual deck engine to build towards and the remaining cards in your opponents hand will be handtraps. So handtraps are more economical cars advantage wise than board breakers.

[@delta3244]

1:12 - The year is 202x. Yugioh has grown so fast that handtraps are the only possible response to every deck's speed, and a perfect mix of engine and non-engine is required to succeed. Because of this, the winner of a match depends solely on opening hands and the coin flip. Players have grown ridiculously skilled at manipulating their decks perfectly, watching their opponents shuffle, and flipping/predicting flung coins all without sleight of hand due to them being the only remaining factors in deciding matches.

[@septimus5729]

Depending on what you are willing to spend extra deck slots on you can actually go first with this deck. Going first any 2 card combo except the two spells lets you go into Ancient fairy dragon and set up necrovalley. Using AFD and the lvl 7 Tuner Synchro you summon Tzolkien which summons Black Winged Dragon. Make seals with Black Winged Dragon and one of the maindeck dragons that got revived by the Tuner. Finally banish Black Winged Dragon and Bident Dragion from the grave to summon Black Winged Assault Dragon This way you end on the Tax Dragon, Seals and Necrovalley. On top of that Seals will summon Baidora from deck on your oppoenents turn, which then will set a spell to your board, triggering Tzolkien again. You can then Summon Shooting Riser Dragon to quick synchro into any lvl 10 (usually Baronne). Not bad considering you only really have to run the 1 necrovalley in the main to make this board possible. All those snychros do make your deck weaker to D-barrier however.

[@ItSpooling_]

Doesn’t necrovalley stop some of their summons in battle phase?

[@septimus5729]

@@ItSpooling_ yes but you wont ever enter battle with nercovalley up. you simply activate another Brimming Sangen Manor turn 3 and otk as usual. The quickplay spell you set off Baidora during turn 2 searches another Baidora, which in turn gets you the field spell.

Pendulum summoning was so busted when it was released, they were forced to change the master rules for pendulum summoning from the extra deck. So yeah, Konami decides how the game is played 90% of the time. The other 10% is player creativity.

Nope, they were able to reborn it somehow and do their standard combo. I like that they're making the battle phase relevant but it doesn't feel play against something that has a field spell that discourages interaction, few once per turns and then hits you for 30K damage

Still, it's one of the few decks that can run D. Shifter which is basically a blowout against majority of decks.

[@tristianmeganblagoueakajay9174]

I think voiceless voice may actually have a decent match up against this. My issue is voiceless does not play well in to real hand trap situations. Idk I think this deck is tier 0 if it opens the field spell. Good thing we don't have Maxx c and have no since like 12 years ago. However, this deck being able to kill you and Shifter you is nuts. Even without those options this deck is insane. 22 hand traps without snake eye opening perfect makes it the better deck. It is the equivalent to voiceless vs snake eye. If snake eyes will have a chance to beat this they will need to be at full power. Making it go first is not enough as they can play the black goat and ht you out the game with seal pass. And basically play off 1 extra card and still win. Plus it's next turn draw. So you loose regardless. The best way to beat this deck with snake eyes honestly is to build very heavy go first builds but the issue with this is you become weaker to loosing the die roll against decks like Voiceless Voice. I think a deck that will be able to handle this deck decently is one that can put up enough bodies to get to the next turn through hand traps. Snake eyes can do this so there may be hope. Fire king will be it's worse match up. As the deck has to deal with too many pops for it's field spell, arvata and the rest of the board. This deck is probably more susceptible to hand traps than fire king and snake eyes. That is it's weakness. Cards like ogre will be fantastic against it because it needs all its bodies early in its combo.

Lol, probably won't be a teir 0 format for much longer. And ngl, an extended fire format dosen't seem too terrible as long as theres at least 3-4 different archetypes up top

[@ayham613]

Is this a re upload?

[@markchang2964]

22 handtraps is cursed!

[@goobiehome3235]

Scrubbed raid is now a floodgate

[@OlgaZuccati]

Konami should seriously increase the limit per card to 4 so I can Kan my dragon cards.

[@FleetAdmirable]

every deck even the snake eyes you like does the same thing playing 50% staples and 50% engine

[@NewtBannner]

Tenpai Dragon Link is the way to go, it can go first and second

[@user-em6iu8ej3c]

I think some of their cards prevent you from summoning extra deck monsters other than synchro

[@NewtBannner]

@@user-em6iu8ej3c the black metal one-line-combo (first turn uninterrupted) gets you, Dis Pater, Savage, and Borrelend, and worst case is a seals pass … TCG is probably the best build going first since we don’t have Kaiser

[@soundgreyhound]

Mekk-Knight Invoked was a chad going second strategy. This is a chode.

[@tylerwylde4100]

It seems like maybe Tenpai might be fun. It seems like it doesn't hard lose to maxx c.

[@galaxydragon8326]

if only we had a certain level 4 cyberse mathmech monster

[@fellowinmate109]

Time to play mirror force again

[@satellarknight9476]

Cute,ghost ogre says hi

[@XxHygherUpxX]

since i do run a blue eyes deck ill put super poly in my side and put in five headed dragon so that sould mess up there strategy lol

[@katzuma7641]

What if they made a card “if the opponent has summoned five or more monsters last turn, add one card from your deck to your hand.” As a hard once per turn obv.

[@therobloxmonkey6704]

Should I be happy that I get to play with awesome FIRE dragons or scared because we now have an archetype that can do so much with little cards lost and the fact that newer decks are getting filled to the brim with handtraps, thus neglecting room for a web of strategies? Hmmm........

[@beowulf04]

what website is this 3:35 ? anybody got a link?

[@DoctorMckay101]

So, does this mean playing scarecrow/fader or even threatening roar could be viable?

[@andrejv.2834]

How accurate is road of the king data though? I heard they largely use locals data, and ygoprodeck's ocg reports don't have tenpai performing as well Ygoprodeck shows ocg pure snake eye barely having more tops than voiceless, whereas they're way better in the tcg and largely plays branded in the tcg, unlike in the ocg So yeah formats are usually very different, which made for some really funny meta predictions in the past, like saying adventurer phantom knight would be the best deck or the spright would be tier 0 takes

[@Hotrod3097]

OCG can’t surrender

[@Sorahx1]

Unironically considering siding Waboku because of Tenpai
