[@ScreenCasterz]

When you were talking about every card on this list, you sounded like you were trying to defend yourself from that card's fanboys. Love it lmao .

[@Aranethon]

*reads the comment section * yeah for good reason... :P

[@ScreenCasterz]

I told you guys that Alien Synchro would be the Dark Gaia of this list lol

[@Aranethon]

If i was given the choice between running Gol'gar or Vulcan the Divine it would be no contest.

[@ScreenCasterz]

Lol exactly.

[@VixXstazosJOB]

it's called feedback and every forum have it... and if he does suck giving reasons on why cards suck then he does suck and it has to be known though XD

[@zak22wolftheultramanzenith35]

I don't think Cosmic Fortress Gol'Gar deserves to be on this list. Considering a lot of Alien spells and traps can be useless either once a-counters run out or if you just dispose of the monsters they steal via xyz summoning or synchro summoning or tributing. Gol'Gar is extremely useful in an Alien deck, despite the deck being bad itself.

[@dragonic22]

Useful in ALIENS is partly why it’s bad

[@FlourescentPotato]

Stop saying bleaurargh please.

[@noahliasam7407]

+Ivo Komitov That's not true! and I think it was a bit funny.

[@andrewnelson1516]

Golgar can be used to add back already used/dead fiendish chains or call of the haunted's. You can also overlay it with seraphnite after you use it's popping ability and seraphnite's double normal effect. It's not used in meta but it's definitely not a bad card. #rogue4life

[@8bitdiedie]

Our lord and savior Gol’gar

[@NoshuHyena]

Gol'gar gives you reusable fiendish chains, free pops with safe zone, adjustable prohibitions, and it turns Swords of Concealing Light from an overlooked crowd-control card into something immensely useful. But most importantly, he gives you a Vanity's Emptiness that only affects your opponent, as well as any super stun cards that might seem detrimental to yourself. And the fact that you don't have to neg yourself to make him means he's a safe play. Definitely not in the bottom 10 synchros in the entire game.

[@Aranethon]

In our defense we kinda missed the "bouncing your own cards" part. However, his material restriction really hinders his use and makes him far to difficult to use.

[@NoshuHyena]

You only need a very small alien engine to spam him continuously, which also means the deck is a rank 4 spam and a lvl 5 synchro spam deck too, which gives you strong options. Forget all the terrible, slow A-counter cards and weak alien support like Grey, and "Gol'gar spam" (not aliens) is a pretty legit rogue deck.

[@Aranethon]

P-Duck Whats the engine? 3 of the tuner and one of the normal monster?

[@NoshuHyena]

The normies for rabbit and the rest is rank 4 spam for King of the Feral Imps. It's up to you whether you want to include Oshaleon or 1 or 2 other lvl 4 Aliens. It's not a high tier deck for sure, but it functions!

[@Aranethon]

+P-Duck Hmmmmmmmm.....what about running it in a Chaos MAX build? ARA can pitch the normals to the grave and Sage searches the tuner.

[@Bengully]

i really did prefer yugioh back when synchro's were the new thing because the game wasn't as broke as it is now, like if any of you saw the deck i play with against my friends im pretty sure you'd laugh at me because it is extremely un-meta. but i like the idea of making my own deck and being a bit more creative

[@GreenHotDogz]

my buddy recently got me back into the game after like.. 10 years and he still uses the same decks he used that long ago. Right away I was able to build somewhat meta decks but he would still beat me sometimes because of the cards he ran (some of which are banned) but those decks for the most part are obsolete and boring to play once you've gotten used to the meta game.

[@Bengully]

+Erik Ramirez I guess I haven't really build/ played that many meta decks that I've felt good about but I know what you mean

[@jordibear]

+Erik Ramirez If you're building current format meta decks and getting beat by 10 year old rogue decks... you have not made a current format meta deck or you just don't know how to play the deck. Or he's cheating... or you suck.

[@GreenHotDogz]

+Jordan Gilbert well when you're running cards like monster reborn, harpys feather duster, pot of greed, change of heart, magic cylinder, and draining shield.. also note how I said SOMEWHAT meta, I run Lunalights and Spellbooks and this decks are trash compared to decks like Nekroz, qliphorts, Kozmos, etc.

[@jordibear]

+Erik Ramirez That's my bad then. I assumed you meant decks like Monarchs, Kaiju/Graydle, PK Fire, Dracopals, Nekroz, Shaddoll, Kozmo, BA (bit old, and nerfed, but still good). Because with those decks, even against Monster Reborn, Change Of Heart, Giant Trunade, Heavy Storm, Harpie's Feather Duster, Pot of Greed, etc... you should still be kicking their ass.

[@gamersiegeplays8803]

Cosmic Fortress Gol'gar is on the list? FALLICY I SAY! Summon Alien Ammonite, 1 card Gol'gar. Activate Swords of revealing light/concealing light/call of the haunted, use Gol'gar to reset them and stack counters on himself to blow up stuff, never lose Swords to turns, re-use the call on Gol'gar when they deal with it.... It's not meta but I'll be damned if it's bad.

[@holyfrostms90]

Well put

[@MrWhaway]

Not to mention plus combo Mist Valley Falcon with Lose a turn, SafeZone, Bing Bang Shot or even Vanity Emptiness

[@FishFosh]

Even better, play shock trooper and ammonite in a pendulum deck and use gol'gar to bounce your own pendulum scales and spent brilliant fusions. The combos it enables are fantastic.

[@ecos889]

Also consider royal decree, anti-spell fragrence, Prohibition and other control traps and spells which affect you as well as your opponent.

[@thenightstalker6165]

the card is shitty and in a bad archetype... I mean I could just use triver and bounce everything and with solemn strike it's a bad card

[@lelouch1990itachi]

the constant "its blehhh blehhhhh" thing is... really really annoying

[@MegaCapitalG]

I agree with most of this list but #4. You usually bounce your Fiendish Chains or COTH/Oasis of the Dragon Souls (which aliens usually run). Overall still good list.

[@sleezus689]

Is it bad that I read this in your voice?

[@Izadochi]

Gol'gar really doesn't deserve to be on this list, and Fish OTk made good use of Gishilnodon.

[@alexisthetransgenderduelis4211]

the alien synchro shouldnt be on this list it has FTKs/OTKS and loops up the butt for days U.U how is that a bad synchro

[@cameraredeye3115]

Alexis The Transgender Duelist Same with number 7. That guy can actually be used in Shaddolls and Lightsworn decks. And it's generic, unlike Leo...

[@bunnyboyking5215]

Kreeeve just looked at your thumbnails ...damn you're cringy kid. Grow up

[@outfit5103]

i feel like you havent looked a lot through the list otherwise you would have seen some way better candidates here is a short list i found -malefic paradox dragon -easy to kill and very conditional effect(ur opponent must play synchros) -beelzeus the ultimate diabolic dragon -why would you play this? harder to summon then beelze but only slightly better -majestic red dragon -hard to summon,first effect is simply red dragon archfiend 2nd effect is pretty decent, but goes back to the extra deck in the end phase -majestic star dragon last point from majestic red dragon -vylon alpha decent effect but its statline makes it too easy to run over in battle -infernity doom dragon too many restictions for a mediocre effect -the 3 unicorns are obviously bad i agree -dark end dragon lose 500 attack to simpoly remove 1 monster from the field? too much cost for that result and it targets -dark highlander too situational unless you play against nobleknights -lightning warrior mediocre burn effect -7 swords warrior i agree with -archfiend zombie skull too hard to summon for that effect

[@outfit5103]

***** scrap dragon is good the upgradesare not great and dark end dragon it simply is not worth it for that effect because 1: you must have no cards in your hand 2: its not generic making it quite a bit worse then other level 8 synchros 3: you have to pay 500 attack points above all this which is losing 500 attack points permanent making it a meagre 2100 attack level 8 synchro and 2600 is already average for a level 8 synchro

[@outfit5103]

***** i mixed it up with infernity doom dragon still its bad pretty costly in my opinion i stated my reasoning that should be enough also many more cards that werent that amazing in my list

[@Effrenatus]

Archfiend zombie skull is excellent in shiranui

[@redblack8766]

In defense of Beelzus, it went really well with Infernity for me. But I don't know what's the state of the game right now so meh.

[@KidKatastrophe2314]

Beelzus wrecks house in Yang Zings, and it can help you over come large monsters without you having to take damage first, unlike Beelze.

[@fatherenricopucci7354]

the anime makes every card look powerful,then you watch videos like this

[@Charziken]

and because you actually have to follow cards effects *cough* original YuGiOh *cough* but seriously, the original yugioh gave effects to normal monsters

[@fatherenricopucci7354]

yeah,that's true

[@bunnyboyking5215]

godinfinite77 Then again there are also cards that seem to do jacksquat on their own in the show

[@MiguelitoJimz]

And because anime duelist don't have Solemn and stuff that negates everything so they can do their plays just fine, also the duels are scripted so in a random duel in the anime most of the main characters would lose because they have specific cards for specific scenarios, specially in ZEXAL and ArcV where Yuma and Yuya uses that convenient effect 1-duel-only cards.

[@alpharabbit2353]

The only reason these cards seemed impressive in the anime is because the duels were rigged with once in a lifetime occurrences. A lot of these cards are painfully impractical

[@JustJustin.]

It's the Davinator1212 Drinking Game! Take a drink every time he sticks his tongue out like a child!

[@bluemethetys9267]

How is synchro summoning "one of the hardest mechanics in the game" ??????

[@bluemethetys9267]

***** Do you seriously think he was referring to big noobs not knowing how to sync summon correctly ? Look, if it's "one of the hardest to be able to do" it would be no where near as that: contact fusing non-gladiators beasts is super hard, nearly impossible. Meanwhile you can make 75% of all synchros that exist in the whole game using a quasar-synchron or Gofu-Sohaya triple Quasar deck. Either ways he should've said "most complex".

[@Aranethon]

Lol...the "he" you are referring to is the one that you are replying to ;)

[@bluemethetys9267]

You know what, nevermind. I just felt like it was unnatural to say that.

[@kevinantony170]

+Davinator1212 look at the dd syncros

[@bluemethetys9267]

Kevin Antony​ Actually, something can be simple and hard and so, not easy, while complex things can't be simple, but they can be easy... So no. They aren't synonyms to the point where you can just replace one with another. (Based on my French definitions... correct me if I'm wrong)

[@bigshap2230]

So everything is on this list just because there are better ones out there😔. This is literally your main reason for every bad card on your lists it is getting annoying that you keep doing it

[@erikliu7455]

+Big shap To be fair, there are always going to be better cards than the ones on the list. It applies to all bad cards. In Yu-Gi-Oh, there are no useless cards, but there are always better ones to use depending on your general play style.

[@erikliu7455]

+Davinator1212 I guess.

[@Alyssthecrow]

If something is better than a card and still not played then the card is bad.

[@CyberRock1480]

Davinator1212 T.G. Halberd Cannon can be a best card in a T.G. deck and it could really come in handy in any T.G. decks

[@milkytank2052]

Rocky Ford yeah T.G Deck have many strategy

[@CyberRock1480]

Milky Tank why did he put T.G. Halberd Cannon on the worst list even though when he should have put that card on the best list?

[@CyberRock1480]

Davinator1212 I do agree but here's the thing you can use T.G. Halberd Cannon and Quasar in any T.G. deck's to have great negation if you agree and also Halberd Cannon has the same summoning condition as Quasar and sifr even Cosmic Blazar dragon And I really think Halberd Cannon should really do well with Quasar, Sifr, and Cosmic Blazar Dragon if you agree and Halberd Cannon can come in handy in any T.G. decks and even T.G. Meta's even in Synchron deck's or Synchron Meta. however I disagree that Halberd Cannon is NOT the best card in any good T.G. build including pure T.G. deck's and even Synchron deck's so yeah I know Halberd Cannon and Blade Blaster will both come in handy in any T.G. deck or even Synchron Deck's. and one more thing Halberd Cannon is a Delta Accel Synchro and Quasar is a Limit Over Accel Synchro and T.G. Blade Blaster and Shooting Star Dragon are both Accel Synchros if you believe in the heart of the cards if you agree.

[@CyberRock1480]

Davinator1212 that's true that people including me should Summon Quasar, Sifr, and Cosmic Blazar Dragon and why wont Halberd Cannon come in handy as well with all of the other T.G. decks

[@CyberRock1480]

Davinator1212 I just know alot of people summon Halberd Cannon on the field and their opponent's next turn when they try to summon a monster on the field Halberd Cannon negated the summon of their opponent's monster

[@promugg]

Everytime you cut from going bleeeehh meeeeh gllllllleh back to talking i imagined you doing that for over five minutes until you realised what you were actually doing again.

[@MrMarinus18]

Some choices are strange. Phychic lifetranser is great in phychic decks because it both banishes monsters and gives quite a lifepoint boost right away. You need life points for psychic and free banishing is great for them. A better level 7 would be X-saber Urbellum which really has no use. Also out of the 3 Aisir monsters Odin is the best one. That's so strange you picked him rather than Loki. Thor has the weakest effect but he is the easiest to summon.

[@hoots1225]

Let's be Honest with ourselves, standard Red Dragon Archfiend isn't very good.

[@lexchal5576]

Sam Hoots HE IS

[@hoots1225]

TehAlez GR Tell me what's good about him besides using him to summon Synchro monsters that require a Dark dragon.

[@nekrozofmokey3881]

Shrek't

[@VixXstazosJOB]

first off all, he's generic lol... second off all, he will just obliteriate all your defensive stuff no matter how meta they may be,simple as that... third of all, he's a 3000 beastick, that's all XD

[@nekrozofmokey3881]

VixXstazosJOB He only destroys defense position monsters, and destruction immunity is still a thing. If it said "send all Defense Position" then he'd be okay, every send effect is pretty competent. But how often are you going to see a big bad in defense position? Also, he destroys your own monsters that didn't attack, which is pretty shit. Unless you want to go for that MLG End Phase Book of Moon. Being generic doesn't really matter if you aren't useful or good. You can get far better monsters and even beatsticks in other decks anyway. So if you're still standing by "generic beatstick" when there's clearly much better monsters out there you can use, that's not exactly an amazing case.

[@logansehy5677]

stop saying blah, it's really annoying

[@mvpmvp3861]

[@ElAbismo]

I finally get what I don't like about this guy! 3 things: his sass, his cockyness and his lack of word variety. He's all about thinking the meta is the only thing worth playing cause everything else is a waste of time. Instead of being articulate and using words he just says "bleah" like it meant something. That proves my point: meta players are dumb as hell because they can't win using anything else. This guy's attitude demonstrates it further.

[@psykopyro]

How does this guy keep putting out videos? Most of his vids have almost an even split on likes/dislikes. Plus a lot of the stuff he says is rather cringy and obnoxious. Guess someone else just has to corner the gap in the Yugioh 'top X cards' market. Waiting for the day, to be honest.

[@TheQuilava96]

psykopyro I like the way he talks in his videos, it feels like he's actually talking to you. A majority of the time we all naturally say "cringey" things, but because we're saying it and not really listening to ourselves we never notice it.

Chaos Goddess Level 8 1 Light Tuner + 2 or more DARK non-Tuner monsters. Once per turn: you can discard 1 Light monster; special Summon 1 Level 5 or higher DARK monster from your Graveyard. This thing's Summon condition and Effect run counter to one another.

[@ryanblack4801]

Good video, but if I could suggest using "blah" less. I know that you were trying to say these cards aren't great, but aren't bad, but it felt like you were using blah to often and before the video was half done I was tired of hearing it. That aside you did a good job justifying your picks, and I look forward to seeing more of your work.

[@juneglave5014]

the trick to golgar is to bounce your own cards. People typically use it in lockdown decks. Bounce your own floodgates, play them again in main phase 2, and only your opponent is affected by them. there are a lot of cards that you can abuse

[@TheNutshaq]

Want alcohol poisoning, take a shot every time he says blah or bleh

[@canvasofgrey6958]

Cosmic Fortress Gol'gar isn't as bad as it seems since bouncing your own stuff is quite beneficial. It's an weird gimmick, but using Masoluem of White allows you to dump the normal alien monster in the grave, then extra normal summon the alien tuner to SS the alien you just dumped, giving you easy access to Gol'gar. Once you add in pendulum scales like Monkeyboard into the mix, then that easily gives you 2 cards to bounce back (Mausoleum of White and Monkeyboard), which then gives you A-counter to destroy a card while protecting your hand advantage.

[@theyoungduelist6991]

awesome Video as always, btw could you make a deck profile for some Kind of hybride cuz those are always really interessting

[@familyguy578]

I love my Naturias. All of them. So, when he said at the beginning there wouldn't be any Normal Synchros, I was really happy knowing it probably wouldn't be here before Leodrake flew onto the screen.

BLEAURGH POWER! The 4 years old will be proud!

[@mcarthurcottam6533]

I used to run a Hero equip deck with Seven Swords Warrior in it, and it made for some absolutely wonderful combos. It was was extremely situational though, so I get why it's here.

[@sleezus689]

Ok, now you have to do top 10 best synchros but with Omega being number 1. Looking forward to it.

[@Teebs1996]

Lifetrancer could set up for banish gimmicks at the very least, and I guarantee you, ever single YGOPro Yugituber has abused Gol'Gar in some way shape or form given how a level 1 Tuner + the level 4 Normal alien is just abuse waiting to happen. The T.G. monster is bad but, c'mon, reviving Hyper Librarian, the best synchro in the game, is absolutely worth mentioning. Your script isn't bad and you made very fair points but you act really obnoxiously so this was hard to watch.

[@Teebs1996]

+Davinator1212 I mean your word choice was fine; your delivery isn't

[@Teebs1996]

Your list wasn't the problem, really. Just work on delivery man, and you'll do great things!

[@ThatRandomAsain]

+Davinator1212 im going to post here where hopefully no one can see my comment 😂 I agree with tronbazzardthereal it wasn't the list it was how you delivered it, the "blarging" was ok once but one too many, as for my two cents thunder lord and alien are better cards than life trancer and archfiend card, bouncing your own cards as a combo is far greater than remove to gain 1200 or flipping atk and def. Jeff from team shockwave

[@RikterSRH]

+Davinator1212 Please repeat blah and bleh 50,000 more times.

[@MrMarinus18]

Lifetrancer is actually quite useful as a level 7 phychic. A better pick would be X-Saber urbullem or something.

[@h3ntaicannon720]

About sea dragon lord gishilnodon, red resonator can play it. It's a lvl 2 tuner with the effect of: when this card is normal summoned special summon a level 1-4 monster from your hand. Also if red resonator Is special summoned it has the effect of: target one monster on the field, gain life points equal to that monsters attack. So you would play red resonator, special summon a lvl 3, summon sea dragon lord gishilnodon and summon synchron resonator which has the effect of special summoning itself when there's a synchro monster on the field. You can then either synchro summon Goyo guardian or a lvl 6 or you could destroy synchron resonator and make sea lord dragon 3000 atk, regardless, when synchron resonator goes to the grave you get to special summon a resonator from the grave (red) gain 2800 life points from goyo guardian or 3000 from sea lord dragon and then if you have goyo you can synchro summon to bring out a lvl 8 or if you have sea lord dragon a lvl 7

[@wolfox7776]

Synchro's have to be my favorite monster frame

[@aragonaut]

I've found that Lightsworns actually can make alright use of Blackfeather Darkrage Dragon, because there's occasionally a time where your opponent can disrupt plays and such (obviously). If you went into a really good Lvl 8 synchro, your opponent would usually use their answer like Strike or Warning on it, but if you go into one they think is meh, (especially because you can often further extend your plays) then they let it go through. Then it gives your field a weird safety net, because your opponent is going to be much less willing to attack into a lumina you left on board if it means you mill 5 cards, which could be things like Wulf or Felis. I was using this deck a few weeks ago and did just that; Summoned this thing, and no response. Summoned Lumina, no response. Activated Lumina's eff, no response, used it to Summon Raiden. Raiden's eff, chained Strike. Had to go to EP cause there wasn't much else I could do. Next turn my opponent did some shenanigans with their Dark Magician deck, wasted their Circle banish eff on my bait backrow, then swung in at my Lumina, killing it but I chained Darkrage's eff, milled 5: Wulf, Wulf, Dawn Knight, Glow-Up Bulb, Minerva. Used Dawn Knight to put a Felis on top of my deck, and Minerva then milled the Felis giving me 4 monsters on board, 2 with 2100ATK, one with 2000DEF, and one with 4800ATK. My opponent had to end with a Dark Magician and some back row. I glow-up bulb'd and made Trish, getting rid of their Magician, and other stuff, did a bit more shenanigans and then OTK'd, and it was all Darkrage Dragon's doing. So yeah the card IS trash in like 99% of decks including the deck it was made for, it does have some niche uses

[@RhyperiorRanger]

I just realized mist valley thunder lord is holding a ripped in half ally of Justice catastor... HOW?!

[@armedweiss5531]

[@Dawesome97]

love yu-gi-oh. loved synchro and xyz monsters. hate hate hate pendulums. they broke the game. the game can literally be over in 2 turns or 1 turn if you have the right cards and draw the right hand to start off. just hate them and hate the fact that now the game is too short.

[@gavinl1565]

Reasons why I will stay with fusions, scyro, and xys.

[@zakyrivers7882]

cosmic fortress bounces your own alien continuous spells to immediately chain an activation and a replay without destroying them

[@lucibatt6694]

Now I want to know about those messy four card combos.

[@bunnyboyking5215]

Lucifer Batt Yeah. I want to see him do a list on them.

[@Burningnewt]

Golgar leads to looping

[@wren5413]

With Zeman you can change the monster you lose so if the card they attack is shutting down their deck (El Shadoll Winda or something else like that) you can tribute a card that benefits from being in the grave and stop your good monster from being destroyed.

[@musa7514]

stopped watching after cosmic fortress. Try reading the card for crying out loud... its mainly to bounce you own traps and re-use :/

[@HalfBloodBrony]

i actually get alot of mileage out of chaos king archfiend in the current meta, there are tons of boss monsters with defenses under 500 that he can just run over, like that blue eyes ritual monster is one example, hes great tech in a synchro based deck

[@ZeonicZaku1-Zeon_Grunt_Suit]

I would love to see top 10 flip effect monsters if that isn't already a thing

[@alexw2570]

Hey man, great content!

[@Begeru]

So an Alien synchro is bad because it's only for Aliens?

[@HuaIs5foot3]

Blackfeather Darkrage Dragon is actually really good in lightsworns though. Since you're gonna be running trickclown, this allows you to mill 5 cards the moment you take the 1000 damage.

[@FinalCooler]

to the alien boss: it worked (long ago :P) with permanent stuff on your side... you bounce your own stuff (min 2) and then use the counter to kill off something. i found it kinda neat, but most good permanents used there were stall cards like lightswords :D

[@thepimppresident653]

This is the dude I expect to be at the comic shops for hours on end.

[@bunnyboyking5215]

Here's a drinking game that can be applied to ALL of Dave's videos. Take a shot everytime Dave gives off the impression that he can't handle criticism in his videos.

[@ecos889]

Golgar bouncing your own stuff can be great with cards like royal decree, anti spell fragrance, Code A ancient ruins, prohibition, messenger of peace, swords of revealing light. You really have not thought of the posabiities that golgar presents you. I have crushed many a duelist in todays meta using golgar control loops

[@XenoFluxRecording]

Cosmic fortress plus swords was great back in the day lol

[@shortmanjon617]

My brother often uses mystical beast oh serket to summon majestic star, that's when I say "I quit"

[@HaydenX]

The one thing to say about Hydro Genex is that it gains more LP than most other LP gain effects. In the event that it ever matters to do so, it might be worth playing casually. TThe other thing that Genex has going for it as a whole is Unexpected Dai...which is a really solid way to go for tuners...and Controller works for it.

[@lassemathisen60]

Cosmic Fortress Gol'Gar's effect to bounce face up spells and traps is to combo with Code A Ancient Ruins.

[@iBenjamin1000]

It's funny, zeman the ape king was the boss monster of one of the antagonists of the dark signers arc in the 5ds anime. The unicorns were also used by a character in one of the last arcs. And Odin was featured with 2 other synchros representing Loki and Thor. The trio who used them were like the last guys to beat before the final bosses of the series. There monsters were made out to be enormous terrifying creatures on par with the Egyptian Gods. And now you're writing one of them off on a list of the worst synchros. These cards' power could be for a couple of reasons. One, they were the focus of the deck. 2, they were built up for the anime and given OP effects to make the duels more interesting.

[@DolphyBlueDrake]

+Davinator1212 The three vanilla Synchros aren't bad cards! Same goes for all vanilla Extra Deck and Ritual monsters with good stats! And here's why: 1. Gaia Drake, the Universal Force is a Synchro-Fusion monster that requires both Gaia Knight, the Force of Earth and another vanilla Synchro to summon it. And Gaia Drake is WELL worth the cost, EVEN in a mostly otherwise vanilla deck, for Gaia Drake is immune to all monster effects that target and/or destroy, AND it has a spread of 3500/2800 2. There are a few cards that support all vanilla monsters (not just normal monsters, but ALL non-effect monsters). One of these is "Non-Spellcasting Area", which protects ALL non-effect monsters you control from the effects of all spells except for itself. That includes ones you play, so if you have one Raigeki and two Dark Holes, guess what? Those two Dark Holes now count as two more Raigekis, effectively giving you THREE Raigekis without having to play in Unlimited format to do it legally. 3. The fact that they lack effects renders cards like Fiendish Chain ineffective against them. In fact, all effect monster anti-support cards are useless against them, likely turning some of your opponent's cards into dead weight. 4. Though it has a heavy cost of tributing two normal monsters to activate it, Tyrant's Throes can become an incredibly potent lockdown card in a vanilla-based deck: It stops the normal and special summons of all monsters with effects. Which make up the majority of monsters used in most decks. There are a few more reasons, but I'll leave it at that, for now. So please stop putting vanilla cards on your worst lists just because they're vanilla. With effect anti-support cards, vanilla decks do a good job of shutting down the opponent, and vanilla Extra Deck monsters give more potency to these decks by granting them monsters with more power than you can get from normal monsters, while still benefitting from the anti-effect monster cards. (Also, The Masked Beast, though not an Extra Deck monster, deserves a mention here because it's the most powerful Main Deck vanilla monster. It's a 3200 atk level 8 vanilla Ritual monster. The strongest vanilla Ritual monster in the game, and a vanilla deck can just use Advanced Ritual Art to summon it with ease, since the majority of the Main Deck monsters will be normal monsters.)

[@williambailey8828]

Rubic can only be used to make Burning Abyss synchros.

[@williambailey8828]

also, psy-frames use lifetrancer. It helps them win in time, or so banish the missing piece for a psychic feel zone.

[@caesar1512]

Whats your most favorite synchro card? Mine would be Ally of Justice Deceive Armor

[@DarthMetool]

Hydro Genex + Axe of Despair = gaining 3000 life off of your opponent's Blue Eyes White Dragon

[@michaelflater3080]

Let play a drinking game... Everytime he says 'Blech' take a shot...

[@Aranethon]

Do you want alcohol poisoning? Cuz that's how you get alcohol poisoning.

[@PrinceGentleKnight]

Cosmic Fortress is specific for a reason. Lockdown decks won't be able to hold against them. And if people played A-counters right, you can have ultimate field control. Never had a problem taking on meta with a properly tweaked Alien deck when I used to play.

[@rexcraptor2761]

Every time he says blah drink lol

[@Waldo_I_Am]

The only thing I liked about using Golgar was bouncing back Swords of Revealing Light and stuff to reset that timer.

[@Omed2009able]

was just checking halberd cannon's effect it says target a t.g. monster when it is sent to the graveyard but it never reads except this card so i'm assuming after its sent there it can just be resummoned again over and over infinitely unless its banished of course i'm assuming im right

[@obadakhalid713]

How many times did he say blaaa

[@RhyperiorRanger]

I refuse to believe mist valley thunder lord beat ally of Justice catastor in a fight

[@MrMarinus18]

The main reason that people were upset about Dark Gaia was because it is the best fusion out of a set. The evil heroes focus on beatdown and he is the only one that can easily get to high attack points. Malicious fiend is there as well but 3500 is often not impressive enough for beatdown. You could have picked any of the other evil heroes like Infernal Wing which only has 2100 atk.

[@kevinstephenson3531]

To defend Gol'Gar bouncing spell/traps during your turn is good

[@suddenllybah]

The Alien boss boss monster lets you bounce your own S/T cards (which combos with fiendish chain and continuous spell that do something on activation)So it's not terrible.However having to stuff in bits of the Alien Engine makes it not great unless you can get a level 4 alien into the graveyard without damaging your decks game plan.

[@jacobmonks3722]

I wish Gol'gar wasn't on the list but I understand why. Needing one specific tuner is a huge issue and having a sub-par backrow removal effect just doesn't quite cut it.

[@sentasuS049]

quasar halberd and sifr: the field of nope

[@michaelkeha]

I want to know what you have against 2 card combos seeing as by default that is the smallest number of cards you need to make a combo so it's the most likely to occur.

[@diegorojas2049]

Chaos King Archfiend is really good against decks like Monarchs, which have high attacks, but low defense

[@maururuteao8752]

Kogarasho would be so happy of seeing Gol'gar on this list. Kappa
