Rituals are so inherently bad that they need absolutely busted effects to be good, but that’s exactly why I love them. They have utterly cracked effects you can’t find in many other places. As for list ideas, how about top 10 N/R/SR/UR cards obtainable with tickets in Duel Links?

[@Noobie2k7]

Yeah its an inherently terribly designed mechanic that's only ever been good when a tier 0 deck uses it. Who would have guessed a mechanic that requires you heavily minus yourself would be hard to balance. It was the same with Fusions and still is in a way. Just we've gotten so used to jist cheating out Fusion monsters now we've forgotten. Like when was the last time we got a Fusion deck thst actually relied on you summoning the Fusion monsters properly? Ignoring things like contact fusions or generic support like Super Poly or Instant Fusion etc?

In Over the Nexus, there are four Ritual Speed Spells in case you actually want to use Rituals in your Turbo Duel deck. Advanced Ritual Art Contract with the Abyss Earth Chant Dawn of the Herald So if you wanted to use that new Gishki archetype in the game, then tough cookies. Over the Nexus is my favorite Yugioh video game, but every set the Speed Spell line up becomes less and less usable for deck designing.

I want to mention Ritual Foregone, is kinda like an instant fusion, pay 1k, summon a ritual from hand but can't attack and is destroyed at the end phase, the effects aren't negated and you have to tribute nothing so that is awesome

the issue is that " from hand" if it was from the eck it would be on par with instant fusion

You can see that because it says "Ritual Summon any "BLS" MONSTER", not just "Ritual Summon "BLS"". Therfore I think it cannot be searched with pre-prep, but I could be wrong

[@Masahane]

I always thought it was a missed opportunity that Ritual monsters were main deck monsters in the old days instead of extra deck. But now with these insane effects that's kind of a moot point. Even still, I wonder if it would break the game to allow Ritual monsters to be placed into either your main or extra deck these days (and deal with "return to hand/deck" mechanics somehow). Considering newer ritual cards are balanced around the inherently negative summoning conditions of ritual monsters, I assume it would.

[@Bezaliel13]

No, just NO. Synchros powercrept the game like crazy and they would have been NOTHING compared to ED Rituals being "Fusyonchros" by not needing a Tuner, not needing an exact total, not needing to use a second monster, nor needing them *ON FIELD.* Do not bother trying to say "while Rituals can use generic monsters, _Fusions can use generic Spells"_ because the Fusions that say "you do not use Polymerization" were due to how Poly was originally *the only way to Fuse,* so the three copies of several different Ritual Spells would have had only three Polies to "compete" with *from the start.* I do not care the early Fusion and Ritual Monsters sucked, for you could have made a whole deck of only high LV monsters and Ritual Spells to outspeed everything, especially back before Synchros caused the Fusion Deck to become the Extra Deck with only fifteen cards. _As for doing it now, the basic mechanic would powercreep the Extra Deck by taking the one advantage of Fusions while Synchro, Xyz, Links need materials on Field, and only Links can also be summoned with only one monster, yet a Link-1 could not possibly compete with a LV8 Ritual in power_

[@feder373]

@@Bezaliel13 Dude, you're overreacting a bit. First, fusion spells are always alive if you have materials AND had good searchers and recyclers since the beginning of the game (including a costless spell), while ritual spells got their first searcher later and it ate up the Normal Summon on a low ATK body. And since they only work with specific monsters in most cases, they are inherently more inconsistent apart from the at least minus 1, weaknesses that wouldn't go for most Ritual decks even if the monsters were in the ED. And you should know that in the current game state it's easier to get more monsters on the field than resources in the hand, because searchers and drawing have more restrictions than summoning effects. That's why Maxx C was banned. So, the actual reason the Ritual Monsters shouldn't go in the ED is 1) it conflicts with lots of effects that work with them being in the hand, and 2) some archetypes are already too consistent, and would be even better if they didn't have to run their bosses in the Main Deck, but both of these issues didn't exist before 2015, with the release of Nekroz.

[@Bezaliel13]

@@feder373 I am not "overreacting," I just heard this dumb idea before. Anyway, I see you are also against ED Ritual, bur what would Fusion's searching and/or recycling have mattered in the hypothetical situation of Rituals starting in the Fusion Deck *when Rituals had unlimited different Spells?* I mean, why should someone care about searching Chakra's Ritual Spell when Super War Lion was not that much weaker?

[@feder373]

Well, the thing is that ritual spells are useless if you run out of enough levels to tribute, and at the same time, you may risk being OTK'd if your Ritual Monsters are destroyed and your deck mostly consists of high level tributes that can't be summoned easily. While fusion recycling effects usually let you get at least 1 of the materials aside of the spell (which would be too powerful for ritual tributes as they're generic), and materials are usually low level monsters that can be useful in more cases. I'm not even mentioning the fact that Fusion Monsters usually had good effects, while rituals didn't.

[@Bezaliel13]

@@feder373 No idea why getting "Raigeki'd or Dark Holed" would result in an OTK, but that argument only "works" on my *exaggeration* of a Ritual deck. Not to mention why a little recycling would be better when my exaggeration on needed practically any two cards to Ritual again. Counterpoint; I summon Sonic Bird to bring out Relinquished to steal the biggest enemy. Maybe use the first Effect Ritual to Fuse the first Effect Fusion. "I'm not even mentioning the fact that Fusion Monsters" were crazy early in the game, like Aqua Dragon, Fusoinist, Skullgon, Fusions that needed Fusions,* Metal Dragon, etc. * Rare Fish, it was Rare Fish. Seriously, Rare Fish basically shows how and why Instant Fusion was made.

[@badd7407]

Meteonis Dryton and Impcantation Inception should be golden standard for ritual spell. If Vendread have that spell it be so good

[@nacl4988]

Or just either Dogmatika ritual spell should be a solid Silver. Neither go -1 or 2 when summoning. Kalamity uses a material in the extradeck, Which can often give you a card back to replace the RitualSpell used. (Titaniklad for 8, Luluwalilith for 12, and N'tss or Herald for 4) Macabre can summon a monster from the GY, using materials in the GY.

Best video I've seen so far only because of the Gishki feature. Such an iconic and innovative archetype. Perfect! Thank you ❤️

[@laggalot1012]

Inspired by the Black Luster Soldier series of support shown in this video... Top 10 cards that inherit/bestow effects onto other cards. Such as with Evening Twilight Knight and Beginning Knight. If they're used for the Ritual Summon of Black Luster Soldier (Super Soldier or regular), they can use the effects these cards grant, no matter the state of the materials after the fact. Giving cards new effects they wouldn't have normally is a really interesting perk that a fair amount of cards utilise. I think it'd be neat to explore what cards there are that do this and how they can be utilised. On topic to the video itself, I've thought for a while that Nekroz seemed conceptually very interesting, and that's lead me to assemble a Nekroz deck in Duel Links. Quite recently I've finally completed the deck outside of some minor Extra Deck optimisation and I've been having a lot of fun with them, even if their current state is somewhat limited. They're competent enough right now, at least, in particular thanks to the recent addition of Nekroz of Trishula and Manju. I know that there's a limit to what they can add for the archetype without risking the game's balance, but still do I eagerly await further support to help further round out the deck and improve its currently somewhat shakey consistency. I may try building up Nekroz in Master Duel somewhere down the line as well...

Revendread Origin is also great, allows to ritual summon a ritual monster that is in your hand OR GY and using materials in your hand, field and/or GY and it even banishes itself from GY to protect the monster from destruction.

[@brandendrew2019]

Cool I also have some of these cards on the list you made.

[@gabrielt.harris8885]

There is a slight error with the chapter labeling. 2 and 3 are swapped. I would also say the Nekroz Kaleidoscope should be number 1 and Meteonis Drytron should be 2nd.

[@Joao-lw5pj]

I was going to mention that.

Suggestion: Top 10 Best Fusion Spells in Yugioh

[@Otzkar]

Video recomendation: decks that were top tier in duellinks but got nerfed because komoney thought they where in the metagame too long

[@Priestelar]

not harpies kek

[@Otzkar]

@@Priestelar lol I'm forced to play harpies in this kc cup because it's almost the only deck I own that wasn't nerfed into oblivion

[@Priestelar]

@@Otzkar harpies make me angry cause they were tier 1-2 for almost a year. but phantom knights got hit harshly after only 3 months, nekroz got nerfed before they even had the chance to be tiered. i dont care for any of these decks. im just pointing out that there are double standards

[@Otzkar]

@@Priestelar bro the double standards at komoney are insane.. at the end of the day it's all about money for komoney. They have nuked many enjoyable formats simply with the goal of pushing product.

[@Letso-S-Relaeng]

Top ten cards that debuted in the TCG that went to be mainstays in both variants of the game

[@thepiratedoggo1996]

Shout out to my Gishkis, loved that ritual deck, still play it today.

[@ArcanumSymphonis]

One thing I've been intruged about is top 10 monsters that have something other than "00" for the last two digits of their atk and/or def, since there are both some really good ones and really bad ones.

[@f687sNFM]

Top ten monsters that give effects when used as a material

[@Superson1c5]

I'm pretty sure he's done a video like that already.

[@Sta_cotto]

Top 10 extra deck monsters that interact with different types of extra deck monsters.

[@WaddleDee45]

I remember getting OTK'd by Mako in Legacy of the Duelist with Gishki shenanigans. I had absolutely no clue what was going on and then I lost.

[@alexgrissom3513]

Suggestion: “top 10 types of good effects that will never be banned” I’m thinking of effects like “both players draw 1 card” “banish 1 card to destroy 1 card” balanced effects like that

[@michaelygh]

Honourable mention for Rebirth of Nephthys 😎

[@andres201292]

While watching the video, I was thinking that a solution to make ritual monsters better in modern yugioh, was to have a rule that "every time a ritual magic card is successfully activated, and a ritual monster is successfully summoned" the controller of the card draws 1 card to support the loss of efficiency that ritual monsters have compared to extra deck monsters... but from the top 5 onwards I realized that this would be even more game breaking xDD

[@Dw7freak]

While it's not on this list, there's a little thing about Chaos Form. Because it lists BLS, Preprep let's you search it, but ONLY in the TCG. In the OCG, because BLS is called Chaos Soldier, Chaos Form says it can be used for any "Chaos" ritual monster, which makes it not a target for Preprep.

[@Gilgamesh-em6ru]

I thought Dogmatikamacabre would be a little higher on the list due to how easy it is to fufill it's requiremenst in a ritual dogmatika build The only reason I could see why some of the other ones were put over it was due to past format accomplishments. even if it's secondary effect isn't that hard to pull of and is a lot bigger pay off esspecially since both White knight and White Relic also rip cards out of the extra deck.

[@SaintMorselGrand]

Nekroz pairs beautifully with Drytron, assuming you bring out Unicore last, using the other spells to drop out Nekroz of Trishula and the 33k beatstick negate

[@thomasbitmail7937]

Loses too hard to HT these days and the recovery ain't really that great either. You are just better off with the not once per turn Ultimateness turn 1 than with Areadbhair.

[@robertakikitoudur6989]

It synergizes well, but both archetypes are very weak to handtraps, especially Droll and lock bird which kill the entire deck.

[@anthonyamurri9278]

Super soldier synthesis is able to be used for any Black Luster Soldier ritual monster. There are currently three. I know this video is a year old but I'm pretty sure that Black Luster Soldier super soldier was around when it was made

[@KimoKeine]

I'm a returning player from the time when Summoned Skull was the best and I spent all my starting gems on the most recent pack... so I'm part of the Drytron problem now. that's my boy up there *sheds tear*

[@samueldubois6484]

You can just... actually play Drytron rituals.

[@meatshield_]

I've been running a goofy impcantation/blue eyes deck that's been winning me games (in lower ranks in master duel, I play for fun and to try out older decks that I've never had the chance to try out but always wanted to) and inception is effectively necessary for the deck to get MAX out.

[@williamboehler5119]

Suggestion. Top 10 hard to summon monsters that would be easy to summon if there weren't banned cards. (Sorry but I was thinking about the painful choice exodia necross combo)

[@akmalfakhruddin7285]

Guardian Elma ( can’t summon her as Butterfly Dagger Elma is banned ) Neo bubbleman ( metamorphosis is banned )

[@emred4653]

suggestion: can you make "top 10 fusion deployment targets" video?

[@alphamarigi]

Happy Birthday Yugi!

[@Krokodilius]

quaritis best counter to meteonis, god that was a fun game.

[@alecv3107]

Suggestion for a Video: Top 10 best “Number/Chaos Number” monsters and Top 10 worst “Number/Chaos Number” monsters

[@NeviTheLettyFan]

Glad you explained the Gishki OTK, it's disgusting lmao

[@UndertakerNeverDies]

Suggestion for a video of top 10 cards that became inferior cards once the new summoning methods were introduced into Yugioh. I’m sure there’s loads of cards that lost there play value because they couldn’t keep up with new summoning methods of XYZ, synchro, pendulum and link summoning as they became introduced into Yugioh.

[@abuhassan8849]

Advanced Ritual Art used to be limited or even banned in the banlist a long time ago. A shame TheDuelLogs didn't mention this little important fact.

[@gyeongchankim5423]

Suggestion : Top 10 monster cards which appears in other card illustration (e.g. dark king of the abyss/dark ruler ha des, gagagio, marauding captain...)

[@friesen_m]

Suggestion: Top 10 cards to intentionally lose the duel. Stuff like Garbage Lord, the Cyber Dragon Fusion, White Veil, and Relay Soul

[@rodrigoworlitz4905]

What about the Ritual Spell Card High Ritual Art ? Compared to rest of this list it's a considerable new card but is pretty interesting and might see some play soon.

[@trauma0866]

Question out of curiosity: can you pendulum summon a ritual monster or do you necessarily need the ritual spell? Thanks

[@zawarudogaming3961]

The new Odd-Eyes ritual pendulum can be pendulum summonned from the hand iirc

[@Vrico98]

Nope, they need to be ritual summoned

[@lamronjr8785]

God what a nightmare that would have been if they could summon like that

[@guardian3636]

Bruh their whole thing is they NEED to be ritual summon by a ritual spell

[@akmalfakhruddin7285]

umm no? why did you assume that?

[@toastquest1681]

i'm disappointed you didn't include litmus doom ritual. it's not flashy, but it's very effective

[@batayan_]

suggestion, top 10 cards that steal your opponents cards (not just monsters) ex: centaur mina, relinquished, goyo emporer

[@shaslibe8154]

Suggestion : top 10 check item when a new card release. e.g : check if the new card is a machine type monster with 500 or lower ATK (for Machine Duplication)

[@DHogsett]

♥ thanks for all the content.

[@EldritchBladesgaming]

Gishki was for awhile my favorite meta counter deck

[@adriannaranjo4397]

Should Ritual Monsters have been put in the Extra Deck?

[@Superson1c5]

No as it gives a way to give the main deck a method of good access to boss monsters and in the early days of the game special summoning.

[@noukan42]

You would need to ban a dozen cards to make it work. And i am lowballing a lot because i don't remember a lot of ritual related cards.

[@ultimafire2001]

Let's face it, ever since Drytron was introduced, it's basically the go to for Riturals, except Relinquished for whatever reason

[@Carlet_S]

Pebble rule, you can't ritual summon without tributing at least one monster, but you also can't go over the tribute treshold, since Meteonis checks for ATK, and Relinquished has 0 ATK, you meet the treshold without actually tributing anything, and since you already hit the treshold, you can't keep tributing machines, therefore, you can't summon Relinquished with Meteonis at all. If it makes you feel any better, Relinquished has a buddy in Litmus Doom Swordsman in the "can't be summoned by the Drytron ritual" corner.

[@StiGMaTicKNiGHt]

I don’t think Super Soldier Synthesis can be searched via Pre-preparation of rites. It’s because it says “BLS” ritual monster, and not [BLS] (the vanilla ritual). You cannot search for BLS the archetype with Super Soldier Synthesis and Super Soldier Ritual

[@redmage808]

My brother had a Paladin of White Dragon which usually was his ace monster since he had 3 spell or equip cards that would boost the attack and defense over 4000. We used to joke it was basically his God card, so after a few loses I started putting some trap cards that got rid of equip cards to try leveling the playing field lol Edit: spelling
