Shinato was absolutely amazing in playground yugioh. It had pretty much the highest ATK available among any reasonably attainable cards. In those scenarios, once you brought out a boss monster, your opponent would just set a defender every turn until they drew removal, but Shinato defied that by being able to damage them anyway. One of the people in my school would brutalize everyone with Shinato if they couldn't answer it in a few turns.

[@vullord666]

@@isaacvitela5131 I mean the OP isn't saying there are ZERO strong ritual monsters, but that on average the entire mechanic should bring out the strongest monsters on AVERAGE. And it's a fairly good point. Ritual summoning is the most difficult and punishing summoning mechanic there is (by itself (as in ignoring the monsters who add harsher conditions onto their Simmons)). A broken Ritual monster is inherently more balanced than a broken link monster (or any other extra deck) because it takes that much more effort to summon a ritual monster. Worse case scenario if it's decided a ritual monster is TOO broken, all Konami needs to do to slow it down is ban or limit the archetype specific ritual card. It kinda just makes sense if you're making a trading card game. For that same matter, I'd say the strongest (on average) monster effects should be on Gemini monsters because that inherently makes broken effects slower. I mean in neither case would the broken effects necessarily fix the inherent problems with the mechanic, but I am 100% sure that having so many mediocre monsters is helping neither mechanic.

[@dustinvance243]

Not really. At best you could argue that it should be ahead of vendread chimera. Every card on the list after that is just worse. Shinato has a similar effect and more attack, but i'd still say emerald eagle is better because it automatically destroys the monster and doesn’t care about battle position like Shinato does. And this is the default effect of the card so you don't have to summon it twice to get it. The part that requires you to summon it twice is the nuke effect. Plus it has the salamangreat archetype backing it where as half the cards on this list don't have an archetype at all.

[@mattiatasselli2815]

Emerald eagle is not that bad because pre preparation of rites exists and it works on emerald eagle because of the last effect of rise of the salamangreat

Syncro are easier, xyz are even more so. Links are super easy. So you need hyper focused archetypes and great effects. Dragoon is not good because is a fusion, is good despite of that.

The good thing about paladin of white dragon is that the face down monster you attack is destroyed immediately by its effect instead of by battle, so it completely bypasses flip effects (unlike drillroid) while also not activating floaters such as mystic tomato. If you're playing stuff like goat format, it's got some utility.

Reshef is very lackluster but not as bad as some other cards here. It essentially turns every spell card in your hand into a potential Change of Heart, which is actually a good effect. It's not worth the effort of going into a ritual summon for it, but it's just not bad enough for top 10.

[@Zeekfox]

I think the explanation of Shinato missed out on a bit of history. Remember how early Yu-Gi-Oh was about pure beatstick potential? Summoned Skull wasn't played because it was a fiend or a dark attribute. It was simply a 2500 attack monster with one tribute. Back in those days, you never would ever want to play Magician of Black Chaos or Zera the Mant because they only had 2800 attack, unless you specifically wanted a dark attribute or spellcaster/fiend typing, which served almost no purpose. Instead, you played Black Luster Soldier, because it had the higher attack value of 3000 while also being an 8 star ritual monster. Shinato basically eclipsed Black Luster Soldier by having an even higher attack value of 3300, while still having the exact same summoning condition, aka a generic level 8 ritual summon. While ritual summoning was inherently weak without secondary effects on the ritual spell and/or incredible effects on the monster, Shinato was the best you could get before any of that was added. In fact, it had a 3D summoning animation back in the Nightmare Troubadour game on the Nintendo DS because of that honor.

[@tespenkr9924]

14:11 though i quess it should be pointed out that there is a retrain of this card in the form of Ruin, Supreme Queen of Oblivion, which not only can attack twice if you use a ritual monster as one of it's tributes, not only can it inflect flame wingman burst damage, but protects your ritual monsters from card effects, hitting the final nail in the coffin for this card.

I have got a theory that I can't prove about ritual monsters.. Maybe during the early stages of yugioh(before it was released in the maeket) they were originally intended to be placed in the extra deck but they had to change it since they would overshadow fushion monster by a lot. Why would anyone use a fushion monster which requires a fusion card and 2 or more very specific monsters when the ritual monsters required a ritual card but could be summoned with pretty much every other monster? Probably the synchro monsters are a recycled and improved version of that rejected idea.

[@elijahcruz6633]

That's actually how they balanced Ritual and Fusion Monsters from the early days of YGO; Fusion Monsters need a specific Spell Cards and Materials to Summon a Monster that is readily available everytime (due to being in the then-called Fusion Deck), whereas Ritual Monsters require a certain Spell Card and any materials as long as they meet the level requirements with the risk of not having the Ritual Monster on hand, or vice versa. They have roughly the same amount of risk and reward, thus balancing (to the point that they were overbalanced) these monster types, at least in the early days that Tribute Summoning were far more desirable than either.

[@cowkingkiller]

@@elijahcruz6633 you also didn't have a plethora of hand traps in every deck that could negate said summons or summon components.. utility wasn't as common or as strong in the older days...(excluding pot of greed, monster reborn, and mirror force)

[@DukeSkylocker]

Interestingly, that's how they originally were in the anime. When Yugi first summoned Black Luster Soldier he just had to draw the spell card for it, implying that like Fusion, Ritual monsters came from outside the deck. Unfortunately, at the time the ability to special summon a high attack level monsters with just one card and generic material was seen as too powerful. Heck, in the early days of Yugioh, Ritual was still seen as a step above Fusion, as they needed two specific cards from the main deck, as opposed to Fusion that required at least 3. That's why you would see decks based around Ritual summoning in the early days of Yugioh, where a player would use a deck with 3 Sonic birds + 3 Senjus + Sangan and Witch of the Black Forest to search through their decks for the required cards (it also helped the one of the early Ritual monsters was Relinquished, which was one of the best early boss monsters). By comparison, Fusion based decks didn't really become a thing until Hero decks. Of course in the end, the fact that Fusion monsters were in the extra deck meant they could evolve to keep up with the game in a way that Ritual monsters couldn't. Nowadays there are so many cards that can summon a Fusion monster using materials from the deck or graveyard if not bypass the material requirements altogether (eg. Instant Fusion). By comparison, even if you have a Ritual spell card that can use materials from the deck or graveyard you still have to draw it and the Ritual monster. Heck, even a Ritual spell card that can bring out a Ritual monsters AND its materials from the deck may still not be appealing these days due to the risk of drawing that Ritual monster and then having a Garnett in hand.

[@anasazmi8554]

The card text in the Legendary Flame Lord card you showed in this video sounds like its monster destruction effect is mandatory and only triggers once the number of Spell Counters on it reaches 3. Doesn't seem to be the latest erratum, though, since the last erratum it had seems to be the Dark Revelation Volume 1 pack, which was before Problem-Solving Card Text, and the text shown here uses the PSCT format.

Really wish rituals would be changed to where the monster is summoned from the deck or hand. The busted ones can say specifically from the hand or something, like herald of ultimateness.

@@OathOfRevenge I can agree but they wouldn't be rituals at all at that point.

That would mean a weird hybrid of Syncro and Fusion. Specific target levels and dependent on deck spell. Maybe if they kept a proportional power to ease of summon between cards.
