*Nekroz of Colossus* Level 8 Water Thunder / Ritual / Effect You can Ritual Summon this card with any "Nekroz" Ritual Spell. Must be Ritual Summoned without using any Level 8 monsters. You can only use each of these effects of "Nekroz of Colossus" once per turn. ● (Quick Effect) When a card or effect is activated that would destroy a monster(s) on the field: You can banish 1 "Nekroz" card from your GY and discard this card; negate the activation, and if you do, destroy it. ● If your opponent adds a card(s) from their Deck to their hand (except by drawing or during the Damage Step): You can banish 2 random cards from your opponent's hand.

@@gargravarr2 cool idea. U can dump 2 heralds, 2 Ntyss or one of them each for his summon which is kinda neat👍 Imo the part with the "banish 2 cards from hand" is kinda broken imo. So this monster should be able to banish just 1 card from the hand, field or GY. Otherwise this effect is pretty good

ivan gucek then there’s consecrated light , which is a last warrior for dark monsters. good tech for going first against orcust

[@M3G4T3RR4]

The problem with Last Warrior is that it’s a fusion monster with specific materials that can’t be cheated out. The effect is great, one of the best effects a card can have, but the summoning condition kind of overbalanced the card. Edit: Not sure why I said it couldn’t be cheated out back then.

I play Kristya over Vanity’s in Shinobirds. Its inherent summon is important since you want to save your normal summon for Manju/Senju.

[@boraaksitozgun9912]

@shadowdraqon 1) mind control is a good point, though usually negated by sauravis in nekroz. 2) a nekroz deck topped recently with vanities, not with kristya so Ruler has statistically proven more successful 3) you also can't play under kristya so you hit and hit until opponent draws multiple infinite impermenance...vanity first game, then OTK is better. That was a side deck option though in the last nekroz deck. 4) you auto lose to purple magician since even if they can't beat over kristya, after boost, magi pops itself, then pops kristya anyway.

With Royal Oppression, it wasn't really destroyed or turned off on your turn. Basically people would do all of their plays, set up a good field, and then flip it up on the opponent's turn and that would basically end the game right there.

The way to use royal oppression is you set up your full board and then flip it on your opponent meaning it doesn’t affect you

[@onadaTotihotiH]

I find it hilarious that Artifact Scythe was seen as a relatively weak card back when it were first released before HAT format, yet here we are. NGL though, I do wish Artifacts were more playable as an actual archetype, I’d love to see them get a Field Spell that allowed you to summon/activate their effects on your turn and couldn’t be destroyed at least by Artifact effects.

[@Clear1]

To correct, iirc Oppression got banned around the time during the Tele-DaD format, where people just make one of those first turn-1 "Break my board", where the field ends with a couple of boss monsters, and a Stardust to protect the Royal Oppression, and then during the opponent standby phase, flip up the royal oppression and lock the board. It is not so much a trick, but rather how power creep made that Oppression that much better.

[@andreafantin9567]

no, it got banned much later in september 2011

[@RNGHater]

Wasn't Iblee used in Gouki format when Gouki Extra Link was a thing? I would say that it was more relevant in that case.

[@mycreativeandgamerschannel]

You got really nice voice You do story telling your voice br great voice overs

[@BlazeMain]

I would have put in shiens advisor since you can choose one type (dragon, spellcaster, etc) and lock them out of attack and special summoning but not normal summoning and he’s rather vulnerable as well, not much protection on his own. But pretty decent for his effect.

Since traps cards are considered slow for been trap cards and you mention trap cards in a lot of your videos, how about a top 10 most used or useful trap cards?

[@ultraatari9298]

Carlos Hirujo You mean the ONLY ten trap cards used Infinite Transcience Solemn Strike (I would actually say it's better than judgement cause 1500 is less than half typically and most likely you'll negate a monster) Torrential Tribute (trap rageki not at one) Metaverse (because Terraforming is at one. So is this but wasn't for a while in the tcg) Evenly Matched Heavy Storm Duster (comparable to twin twister in efficiency) Rippling Mirror Force (Storming Mirror Force also could've gone here, but shuffling shit back into the deck is way worse than returning anything to the hand) Fairy Box (the only one you won't see a lot of play on YGOPRO or competitive which is odd as it's a 50/50 chance of making your opponent regret attacking. Its life point cost is negligible. Problem is all those immune to card effects or targeting cucks) Blazing Mirror Force (it's like ring of destruction but doesn't target. Problem is destruction is poo poo pee pee in Yugioh effects as is most everything) Lose 1 Turn (Great in Time lords and i can use it in my gren maju decks too, it can shut down a lot of plays. Problem is it effects you too. Its a great stun though) Ironically players I knew didn't know about a lot of these and we were running a GX sorta RP and they said I should be like a teacher for trap card curriculum which ofcourse is underfunded and you end up with mean Snape sorta teachers lol
