Disaster Leo's instakill effect is actually somewhat easy to trigger if you do it right. Summon out 88, Link it off, then revive it and rank it up into Disaster Leo, then use his effect to burn for 1000. Then you just need to drop your opponent to 2000 LP or less with him in play, and you win.

For the record, Holactie is a really weird spelling of Horakhty. Which is pronounced "ho-rock-tee." It's one of the names of the god Horus, meaning "Horus of two horizons." Horus is the Egyptian god of kingship, and he was also often conflated with Ra, the sun god. Re-Horakhty (Ra who is Horus of the Two Horizons) was basically the fusion of Ra's status as an all-powerful creator and Horus's status as the true heir and ruler of civilization. Hence why the Yu-Gi-Oh version is so amazing - though funnily, she gives me more of an Isis vibe.

As someone who used to run a Venom deck for the fun of it a while back, I will say...that one of the most annoying things about Venominaga is actually her own protection effect.

All your opponent has to do is play defensively and you can't do anything unless you can clear their entire board and get in a direct attack

[@stevenceja4706]

Plus there's also the fact that your opponent could just remove reptile monsters from your graveyard in order to decrease her attack points and make her really easy to beat over and because of her own effect you can't increase her attack points again.

Worth pointing out for Exodius is that it was clearly made/designed to be an exodia deck backup plan. If your opponent was targeting your exodia cards for destruction in hand or deck, then you could use Exodius to replenish your deck and give you the chance to regain them. In addition, since exodia cards are THE win-condition archetype, his job was supposed to give you a back-up win condition if your opponent continued to destroy your exodia cards. The only issue is, of course, that even when Exodius was released, the game was far too fast paced and there was far too great of a focus on the graveyard essentially being another resource (as opposed to just a graveyard). If you weren't running an Exodia FTK, you were playing Exodia wrong. And if you were running Exodia FTK, then Exodius was useless as it didn't contribute to your win condition. Clearly just a card designed/released for an era that had already passed (like many boss cards, it seems).

[@PrototypePlatform]

yes, BUT his win condition is only activated if he was summoned with 5 monsters, it says "if this card summoned this way..." hes still best used for just attacking. but using an eidos the underworld squiere's graveyard effect to summon an eada the heavenly squire from the grave, who summons a mithra the thunder vassal from the deck, who lets you summon another eidos from hand and use his field effect, then use a monarch stormforth to tribute an oppanants monster, thats 5 monsters and at the very minimum, a calculated 800 x4 (3200 atk) + your oppanants monster, you have both a power house beatstick, with his win condition armed and ready. however repodocus is a terrible idea. a better card is a pre-set DNA surgery + lair of darkness. so simply put. wanna use master guard easy one turn kill? use monarchs.

[@BmanTheChamp]

But Master of the Guard is 10 stars so you'd still need 3, not 2.

[@thatman666]

In short, it's a Gren Maju with a win condition.

[@PrototypePlatform]

no. level 7 or higher is only 2 tributes and that was a change made over a decade ago lol. infact it was probably one of the first master-rule changes

[@braindeadporter]

@@BmanTheChamp the only monsters with an effect that states that you need 3 tributes are that way, like the god cards.

Sad to see vennominaga so high considering I lost to it multiple times. Also I'd love to see a deck with that 5 tribute exodia card. That looks super clowny

[@knightshousegames]

That Flying Elephant card could be a decent deterrent to board wipes maybe? Like you put it out alongside your boss monster, so if your opponent tries to blowup the board to get rid of your boss monster, they have theoretically set up an instant win condition for you, so they'll maybe think twice?

[@juri101]

Exodia Master Of The Guard is like a better version of RA And it requires 5 monsters and gianing their ATK and DEF Its something The downside its the win condition which you may activate it since most of Fiend monsters are Dark

[@joehayes9933]

Isn't there a Dark World Monster that when discarded can summon itself to the opponents field?

[@shekargarvey8330]

Reprodocus can make opponents monsters fiends

[@ads1021]

@9:50 What about using DNA Transplant for the attribute and DNA Surgery for the type? Don't have to link summon so saves you some monsters and makes it easier to keep things hidden until you have it all ready to go. Also, both affect all monsters where as Reprodocus only affects the one it is pointer to. Plus, Reprodocus's effect needs to be activated the turn you want to make the play. So unless you are going for a OTK, your opponent has some time to get a card that negates activation. In comparison, the DNA trap cards activate once when you play them. So your opponent has only one chance to negate their effects.

Gimmick Puppet of Leo was the easiest for me. I was playing Gustos at the time long ago and my opponent summoned Leo and had 2 Destiny counters on him. Then I used creature swap, took his Leo and activated its effect to place the final counter XD will never forget that moment whenever I see that card hahaha

[@RaymanRocks822]

My problem with Vennominaga always was the "do damage three times" part. Whenever I play that I always try to get its ATK as high as possible. So I'd usually empty my opponent's LP long before I could get the instant win.

[@sonicgen20]

Relay soul isn't really an instant win card, more like a last resort card if you're cornered and have no choice but to summon a monster from your hand to protect you. Preferably a really strong monster or one that can't be destroyed by battle like Marshmallon.

[@MemeL0rd13]

Deary doll makes gimmick puppet easy to summon. Sword of revealing lights can be beaten by it's evolved form.

[@AdmiralUnterhose]

At 4:47 There is actually a Flip monster called Crawler dendrit (i think) whose Flip Effect allows you to send a Monster from the Deck the gy so you could technically get obelisk and slifer Into the gy in One turn since the crawler Field Spell Card allows you to Special summon any lvl 2 insect Monster in Face-up attack or Face-down Defense Position. So what you would Need is to have Two copies of that Card in your hand and the Field Spell Card on the Field in order to summon both of them face-down and then wait One turn to Flip them (unless your Opponent attacks them or you use a Spell or Trap card to Flip them instantly. Plus the crawler arc type has actually some pretty decent Search Effects Edit: Yes i know there are other arc types that would Work better i just pointed this one out because i have most of the cards for that One arc type and have actually built some Decks around that arc type that got my friends sweating heavily

[@cassandracastro2759]

I really like the theme of Relay Soul, for a similar reason to My Body as a Shield. WHen you're about to die, you transfer your soul to one of your monsters, and hence now you're alive as long as that monster is. Another reason is that it reminds me of a certain Magic (MTG) joke card that thematicaly turned you into a squirrel (you put a squirrel token 1/1, and if the token leaves the field you lose).

[@nihilvox]

As I recall, there was also an Enchantment that turned you into a dragon. Something like, "You now have 10 life, and do five damage to Target player or creature at the end of your turn", I think. Basically the Disney Villain Gambit of turning into a giant snake.

10:00 you could use DNA Surgery instead of reprodocus, which would turn all you opponents monsters into viable attack targets

[@PrototypePlatform]

6:21 lol you can't use oni-gami combo on disaster leo because the "cannot be targeted by card effects" includes your own cards too. HOWEVER you CAN use oni-gami combo on number 88. which is funny because it says you can only detach materials from it by its own effect if you have no spell or trap cards in the zone. but if another spell card detaches the material, ruling states that you can remove them, the destiny counters are added when the materials are removed by any circumstances, not just his own effect. the only thing you cant do with number 88 is add counter to it because it has unique counter just for itself. also 9:50 repodocus isnt the "easiest" way to do it because both a) it can be avoided by your opponant not summoning into its arrow and b) requires 2 monsters to summon, in addition to the already 5 spent on exodias summon. the BEST way to win with him is lair of darkness and a pre-activated DNA surgery. which is easier to both search, set and activate when accommodating exodias summon.

[@PrototypePlatform]

the only controversy about number 88 and oni-gami combo is that some rulings say that detaching all materials will only give 1 destiny counter. and some rulings say he gets all 3. and as a result its always down to the invigilator on duty at the torniment or legal play event to decide. his effect stops you using his own effect to detach if you use oni-gami combo. but oni-gami combo still removed the materials, and number 88's effect adds the destiny counters when a material is detached. regardless of whether its his own effect that detaches it or not.

[@nolongeraperson]

Couldn't you just summon Radian on your opponent's side of the field? Or does that not count as "originally owned"?

[@PrototypePlatform]

its your card, controlled by your opponant. master guard only win conditions if the victim card comes from your oppanants deck. i have a hunch theres gonna be more field manipulation cards (like zombie world) coming soon, because i doubt they wanted people to use DNA surgery in competative decks, a card thats nearly 15 years old.

Number C88 can be dropped if your opponent runs Rank 8 monsters. If you can get it and Number 88 in the GYs, you can summon this using RUM Admiration of the Thousands. Number 88's auto-win is a really bad one for one other reason: If your opponent chains Enemy Controller to the effect giving it its 3rd counter, *_they get the auto-win._*

[@lpfan4491]

3:50 I did not even know this card got an english release. edit:The monster was actually kinda busted in the anime funnily enough since it was explained as a fusion of the gods, meaning neither itself nor the gods have to actually hit a summoningcondition except for the gods being drawn and a poly. The concept is so broken actually that it was only used once and not even as a card in the actual game.

[@MrGhosta5]

Spirit board should be number 2 on this list as it both takes 5 turns and the cards themselves do literally nothing except fill up your spell and trap card zone. All of the monster cards are by default better then spirit board because you can always just use the monster as a beat stick. Flying elephant defiantly has potential as you could set it in face down defense postion so your opponent doesn't know it's a flying elephant and then when they try to destroy it they instead activate it's effect.

There is another Relay Soul gimmick which effectively locks the game.
