Top 10 Alternative Win Conditions in YuGiOh

[@mqfii8992]

Sacrificing the 3 Egyptian Gods to summon Holactie has got to be one of the biggest power moves you can do In Yu-Gi-Oh. Especially if you already used Sphere Mode to get rid of 3 of your opponent's cards. I mean, how much overkill do you need?

[@haterreplicator4868]

When they put Holactie in Duel Links it would be played. You can summon all 3 god cards in one turn if you got the right deck set up. Hell, there is a video on KZbin of a deck that can summon all 3 god cards in one turn and get the win.

[@Kralex121]

Same man. Sadly had to remove my one-off winners I played for fun when my friends got into meta decks, but I still stick with F.A. It's a very entertaining deck, even if I lose most of my duels. It's also extremely funny playing someone new who has never seen the deck before and seeing them lose their shit witnessing some of F.A.'s more annoying effects.

[@catisreckless4647]

@@Kralex121 As someone who got into F.A. recently, I really feel like they're one of those archetypes that are one or two cards away from being very good. They already have in-archetype negates, tons of searching, and they can become a nightmare to deal with if your opponent allows them to stay on the field. Just need more main deck monsters and something to help iron out the few consistency issues that crop up from time to time.

[@garymcginnis8511]

For the F.A. players, I hope they unban Ancient Fairy Dragon

[@Kralex121]

@@catisreckless4647 I feel one of the main things about F.A. is that they are a bit too fair for lack of a better term. They just lack the ability to establish a big presence in the first few turns, and it's the kind of deck where your starting hand can really make or break your duel. The core of the deck is the balance between spell/traps and monsters. The Spell/Traps all need F.A. monsters to be effective, except for Deadheat, which is a really slow and unreliable way to special summon and pretty much all of the F.A.s want starting setup from the spell traps. It's also not that easy for them to special summon or search without some kind of setup or restriction, so they have to rely on outside cards to get on the field more consistently. Test Run's special summon isn't life turn 1 and needs you to have an F.A. on field for it's destruction effect and the field spells need something to pop them before you can search. If they could get some support that can help them establish themselves more consistently turn 1 I think they could actually do a lot better. If your opponent can't deal with your board turn 1 they usually have it really easy special summoning off of test drive, searching off of their field spells, quickly replacing their field spells and having Motorhome Transport + City Grand Prix can actually be kind of nuts if your opponent has no way to deal with it. Getting such a positive feedback loop where everything just clicks is one of the most rewarding experiences. I still feel like they wouldn't be meta if they'd up the consistency of the deck, but it would really help. They certainly have most of the tools they need, but even with outside help as they stand they are just a bit too slow to compete.

Jackpot 7 is currently really easy to pull off Summon 2 warrior monsters -> isolde -> isolde effect -> slap 4 equip spells into the grave to summon burglars -> give to your opponent -> isolde link summon to linkross -> attack burglars with 2 tokens and linkross -> win super fragile since you basically lose to any interruption, but it works :D

[@noamrothman6412]

Was gonna update my jackpot 7 deck but linkross got banned :(

[@jet_set8648]

*laughs in banlist* You could probably still pull it off with the Auroradon combo (minus Coltwing) using Infernobles to get Isolde and Halq on the field. It's more difficult, but on paper it seems do-able. Get 2 Warriors (Sublimation Knight with Squeaknight work here) -> summon Isolde -> Use said Isolde to mill 4 equip spells for burglars -> give said burglars to the opponent -> summon Halq using Isolde and Renaud (probably the best option considering you can use its effect to summon from the hand while you have Sub Knight on the field) -> Use Halq to summon 001 -> Use 001 and Halq for Auroradon -> Auroradon summons 3 tokens which you use to attack Burglars and win I've seen Infernoble variants use 3 of each of the Igknight pendulums for searching, so you could utilize that to search Sub or Renaud. You want to summon Renaud from the hand though so it's treated as a tuner. Thank you for listening to my TED Talk.

@@teodagreat No problem! I play Destiny Board regularly. To help get out messages faster, I just use Sentence of Doom. For stalling I use fiends like Cassimolar and Battle Fader. Lava Golem's also searchable with Mastery. Kuribandit's another good dark fiend to use too. Backjack and Cyber Jar aren't bad for the deck either. Radian's a good kaiju fiend that's dark. With a decent amount of dark monsters in there you can easily run some allures, and fiends can be recycled from grave or banished thanks to Sentence being awesome. Also running 1 set of messages (I, N, A, L) and 3 Destiny Board's what I normally do. Other good draw options are Upstart Goblin and One Day of Peace too. As for shutting down the opponent, all of those monsters except Cyber Jar work with Skill Drain too. Not sure if you were interested in building a Destiny Board deck or not, but ironically I find it works better without the Necrofears and Dark Spirits. Dark Sanctuary's a must for my variation too.

A note on Ghostrick Renovation If you summon Angel of Mischief on top of another Ghostrick card, you can use Ghostrick Renovation on Angel of Mischief to rank it DOWN, then use another copy of Angel of Mischief from your ED on that new monster, giving you five materials. Also, her effect to attach a material from your hand is not a HOPT, so if you summon Angel of Mischief, attach a material, use the effect of GT Renovation to rank it down, then summon another copy of Angel of mischief, and then once again use her effect, you can end up with 7 materials pretty quickly

The thing about Last Turn is that if you can use it with Blue Eyes Twin Burst Dragon, it’s a guaranteed win thanks to Twin Burst’s battle protection and banish effect. Not to mention the plethora of guaranteed draws with anything with generic battle protection or a kamikaze, like Exploder Dragon. To unban it, it’d likely either need to be changed to grant the win to the monster with higher ATK at the start of the battle step, or be more heavy handed and negate all monster effects, which would kill the fun of the card.

[@CodeRedDamax]

A fun fact about tournament yugioh: You technically cannot surrender the duel unless you are the turn player. Nobody follows the ruling however because since Victory Dragon is banned, there’s no reason to prevent your opponent from scooping. But if Victory Dragon WAS allowed, players would probably not allow their opponent to scoop, so they could carry out the attack, and if players scooped anyways you’d have to get judges involved. I think the card is just a ruling nightmare so they just banned it for good measure

Small correction with Angel and Rennovation. You would actually have FIVE materials before using Angel's effects (2 used for the jnitial XYZ, then the original XYZ, the first Angel, then the XYZ you summon with Rennovation, which is then used to summon a second Angel). If you had two free Ghostrick cards in your hand you could use each Angel's effect to get two more... which still only leaves you at 7' materials. It would take another Rennovation and one more Angel eff to get to 10 - not impossible but it would take at least one additional turn, so you'd better hope your opponent doesn't kill Angel in that turn.

This would stop continuous monster effects preventing special summons without disabling the ability to use a monster effect to negate the card itself and those are the only effects that can be applied during resolution anyway.

(give ur opponent the turn, activate 2 traps) if I remember correctly nercovally had a flip effect monster that places a trap card on top of your deck (to your hands if valley was on the field) you get the gist

[@tohothewriter8002]

I think if Last Turn would negate the effects of the monster on the field so that Jowgen can't just force a loss on the opponent, it'd be enough to see it return to 1 at the very least. Negating the effects of BOTH monsters would make it even more balanced out I think, because there are cards that get ATK boosts when attacking or are battling an opponent's monster(during the battle/damage step)

It bugs me it’s called Holactie instead of Horakhty. One of Ra’s titles was Re-Horakhty, “Ra, Horus of the Two Horizons”

adding honorable mentions to your videos would make them so much better!

[@TheDuelLogs]

I feel like honorable mentions cheapens the list. And I see it too often used by other people to just add everything so people wont get upset at them. A good top 10 (imo ofc) should exclude a whole bunch of things from the video to give more weight to the 10 that did make the list. That being said I do occasionally have honorable mentions anyway when I think its appropriate lol, I think I had one last week even.

Top 10 TheDuelLogs "Top 10" Videos

[@harryf9885]

Fun fact: As a duel links player I often think about what would happen if they added duel links skills to the main game and I think the destiny board skill would actually be pretty strong. They made destiny board a skill in DL because of course we only have 3 spell and trap card zones and it just requires 2k or less life points when activated and dark necrofear in your graveyard, at which point you win after 5 turns if it doesn’t leave your graveyard. It is fine in duel links because we have very few cards that allow you to stall out turns easily, but in the normal game it would basically be a 5 turn version of final countdown that can’t have its activation negated(skills are all spell speed 4), but can be stopped part way through. Though for a lot of decks stopping it would require specific side deck additions that can remove cards from your opponents graveyard and you could probably play a hybrid deck. (edit: I thought final count down was a continuous spell card, DL player lol).

[@harryf9885]

It would have stiff competition though, Destiny draw lets you search literally any card for the low cost of 2k lifepoints and your draw phase, without needing any card in your hand to pull off the search. It is barely okay in a game with 4k lifepoints and 20 card decks. With 8k lifepoints and 40 cards? Plus a bunch of stupid powerful cards balanced by not being easily searchable? Yikes

Top 10 signature cards from each of the Yugioh main characters? Like Yugi's Dark Magician etc etc

[@ronneemazukin]

I wonder if they errata last turn by adding that the special summon by the effect of last turn can not be prevented or negated by card effects.

[@miroheartech4231]

late to the party but angel of mischief is way easier than you make it out to be: first if all renovation doesnt make start out angel with 4 instead of 3, because you can just summon a ghostrick xyz->summon angel-activate angel effect->activate renovation to summon a ghostrick xyz on top of angel->summon another angel->reactivate angels effect, making it a 7 material angel in 1 turn by using 2 monsters with same level between 1 and 3 and renovation. not a 1 turn win, but potentially 2 turn win if you got another renovation in the graveyard and you can keep angel on board for that turn, tecnically possible considering the stalling nature of the archetype, even if too hard in this day and age. is it viable? absolutely not, angel main purpose is to summon on top of alucard and dullahan to use them as material to search a magic/trap card from the deck while using the material effect to get a ghostrick from the graveyard. thats pretty much it. does it even matter? no, because the main win condition of ghostrick is to bore to death the enemy until they give up. does this win condition work? yes, if you are smug enough about it. tl;dr have i thought too much about ghostricks? absolutely, but i love this archetype and one day it will be made great again goddammit!

[@Fuzzy_Barbarian]

The Ghostrick Angel of Mischief strategy is the Yugioh embodiment of that conspiracy wall meme

[@Bomberman204]

Just always been curious; why are you allowed to activate Last Turn while Jowgen the Spiritualist is on the field, while rulings are different on cards like Protector of the Sanctuary and you can’t, say, play Card Destruction? Or send Anti-Spell Fragrances to play Magic Planter? These inconsistencies are really why I’ve stuck to casual play in Yugioh. Agreeing upon rulings that make sense amongst your friends is just easier..

[@Hc2p3n4t4rp]

question about the God cards, one of their effect is When Normal Summoned, cards and effects cannot be activated Since their normal summon itself cannot be stopped, if you normal summon them this next effect will come into play my question is, how far does this effect goes to, it does not mention of where it is working, nor for how long, my guess in time is for the turn it was summoned, but where the effect reaches is what I question, if it makes all cards basically become normal cards with no effect regardless of where they are at, normal summoning one could be a win condition in itself, if you can get the conditions to win (having enough attack to go for the kill), since neither you nor your oponent would be able to activate anything, forcing him to eat the attack, at least thats my current understanding, I tried to search for rullings but it didnt mention the part of my question of, where its effect start and end regarding negation also if there is a way to normal summon in your oponents turn, Slifer could be far better as an engine stopper since the effect deny all effects of all cards, but not game mechanics, in theory, the only thing the oponent can do is Normal Summon, Trubite Summon, Syncro Summons, Xys Summons, Pendulum Summon and Link Summon, Fusion monsters got the short end of the stick in this deal since they either require their own effect or a spell/trap effect to be activated, but that also means that if the monster effects require them to be summoned in a specific way the God cards deny that part too, making some summonings easier... in theory (you can set up all the needed effects before summing the God Card you can still reap their benefits, as long as they are lingering basically)

[@awesomesauce_3516]

What it means is that you cannot activate cards such as solemn judgement when that card is normal summoned.

Question for people who make custom cards: what website do you use and where do you get the artwork? I'd love to submit cards to DuelLogs for review; I've spent days balancimg the cards I've made and errata'd them many times to ensure they weren't broken or overpowered. Any help will be appreciated!

[@Katsu9058]

A fun counter to Last Turn even if they have Jowgen the Spiritualist on the field: Side in Regenerating Mummy. It was easy to do in GOAT format. Last Turn adds a special Battle Phase, but doesn't get rid of your Main Phase or Battle Phase. They activate Last Turn, Regenerating Mummy adds itself back instantly to your hand, and then you kill Jowgen the Spiritualist.

[@javierfavela2255]

Hey DuelLogs, u can also special summon "The Winged Dragon of Ra" using "The Winged Dragon of Ra-Sphere Mode"!

[@ei-on1956]

he's mentioned that previously. it's just not as good as just using the new support though.

[@LootDaddyNekros]

I like your content thank you for having an easily digestible format.

[@cyberend1863]

I feel like Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes should be on the list instead of Exchange of the Spirit. She may be hard to get out, but her effect does win you the duel. I know that inflicting battle damage with 1 monster three times isn't the best win condition, but it's better than some of the other auto win cards. Not to mention she's more than just an auto win, she can become a strong beater and she's unaffected by other cards, so that alone makes her better than some other auto win cards. Also, you can use cards like Battle Mania and Savage Colosseum to force your opponent to attack into her so she'll gain her three counters since she just has to inflict battle damage and doesn't have to be the one attacking.

You can combo Marshalling Field with F.A monster to get them to level 9 instantly, this is a good use of the architype effect but also kinda bad since if you go above level 10 then you activate Marshalling Field it winds down level to 9

About the Victory Dragon, what if the opponent uses Magic Cylinder and turn the controller of Victory Dragon's LP to 0? Would the effect apply to the opponent, granting him a victory in a match, or does the effect only applies if the opponents' LP turn to 0?

[@4P_sALT]

Victory Dragon specifically requires that this monster attacks the opponent directly and reduce the opponents LP to 0. Magic Cylinder negates the attack and bounces the damage (now effect damage) back to Victory Dragon’s controller, thus averting a Match win for either side.

[@King_of_Antisemites]

@@4P_sALT I see. So, if you use V Dragon to attack me and turn my LP to 0, but I use Magic Cylinder, I'd win the match

[@4P_sALT]

@@King_of_Antisemites no. Magic cylinder deals effect damage. If it happens to reduce the opponents LP to 0, you only win the game. Victory Dragon’s attack (necessary for its effect) is negated, which means its instant win can’t activate regardless.

[@King_of_Antisemites]

@@4P_sALT oh, ok

[@zeridoz4464]

It is the appropriate generaider. I regularly deck my self because a lot of the effect cause the opponent to draw cards. And appropriate draws 2 cards whenever your opponent draws outside of their draw phase

[@kcmisulis425]

One of my favorite combos using Last Turn was to Tribute Summon for Winged Dragon of Ra using Scapeghost, then, with its Tribute Summon Effect, I'd go down to 100 LP, then I'd use Last Turn to force the opponent to put up anyone in their deck against the Winged Dragon of Ra with 7900 ATK, which I would always win. Even if Last Turn wasn't banned, it wouldn't work so well nowadays, given the amount of potential draws and workarounds, but it was oh so satisfying.
