@Calvin it's cybernetic overflow

[@michealtheevilhero2340]

I seriously wish this would eventually a more common event (no pun intended) because this is the closest feeling to OG Yugioh,You legit have to strategize and use what little brain cells ya got left to win

[@chendror872]

Because OG Yu-Gi-Oh definitely wasn't just "set a monster pass"

[@davytalley8737]

@@chendror872 ah yes because the game being decided by a coin toss between meta sluts is so much more fun

[@davytalley8737]

@@LunaDachi I was looking at N/R festival videos because it seemed like a fun mode and I share the same opinion as the person who said I hope they do this more

I'm so gonna main that hahha

[@jayybeezy61]

Yooo That Cyber Dragon deck is spicy af 🌶🔥🔥 Thanks for sharing Lithium!

[@MultiStormify]

fun fact, there is a searcher continuous spell for for Boot-Up Admiral Dynamo called Boot-Up Order Gear Change. Also Boot-Up Order Gear Force is Mirror Force when you or your opponent declares and attack while you control only face-up machine monsters. It's pretty strong for the Gadget deck!

[@AlphaSquadZero]

How is Boot-up Order Gear Force a mirror force? I see no text in that card's text box that does such a thing.

[@OfTheMindscape]

@@AlphaSquadZero The OP is talking about *TWO* different cards, “Boot-Up Order - Gear Charge” and “Boot-Up Order - Gear Force.” The first is a continuous spell and the last is a normal trap. The trap card is the card that acts like a Mirror Force.

[@skulphire3679]

I build Blackwings for this event and I think it might be pretty decent. Here is my Decklist for those interested: Main: Jester Confit x1 Blackwing- Oroshi the Squall x2 Blackwing - Blizzard the far North x2 Blackwing- Gust the Backblast x2 Blackwing - Kalut the Moon Shadow x2 Blackwing - Breeze the Zephyr x1 Blackwing - Pinaki the Waxing Moon x3 Blackwing - Gladius the Midnight Sun x1 Blackwing - Bora the Spear x3 Blackwing - Shura the Blue Flame x1 Blackwing - Kris the Crack of Dawn x3 Blackwing - Decay the Ill Wind x3 Lightning Vortex x1 Wing Requital x3 Mystical Space Typhoon x2 Forbidden Chalice x2 Delta Crow - Anti Reverse x2 Black Return x1 Black Sonic x3 Tri - Brigade Revolt x2 Extra: Assault Blackwing - Sohaya the Rain Storm x1 White Aura Dolphin x1 Hyper Psychic Riser x1 Blackwing Armor Master x1 PSY - Framelord Zeta x1 Assault Blackwing - Chidori the Rain Sprinkling x2 Blackwing - Silverwind the Ascendant x1 Judgment, the Dragon of Heaven x1 Evilswarn Nightmare x1 Photon Papolloperative x1 Raidraptor - Blade Burner Falcon x1 Fire Fighting Daruma Doll x1 Geonator Transverser x1 Tri - Brigade Rugal the Silver Sheller x1

[@honourablemuslim2155]

Yeah ok it can do plays but no actual followup no grind game and we don't have option to otk with these r/n so it doesn't shine ...

[@skulphire3679]

@@honourablemuslim2155 dont say its the best or perfect but I still go a 70% wr with it. To recover I usualy try to set up for sohaya on my second turn to summon back my chidori if they managed to get rid of it. Also Tri - Brigade revolt is awesome for the deck since Rugal that you summon of it can give you a card from grave back to your hand and if you use pinaki from your grave for the trap you get an additional search at the end phase since you send him back to the grave when link summoning.

[@jaiksonf.8295]

I'm having fun playing Paleospiral for the past few days. Really good deck imo, even after the banlist

[@TheDarkLaw666]

Impossible to play it with only one of the trap that pops and one of the machine dude that searches field spells

[@nickching3128]

Isnt phantasm spiral banned?

[@roninzero12]

For the first time in years I feel excited for playing Yugioh, I really hope to see a bunch of different cards and new combos.

[@Delicashilous]

And self-burn decks 🤣

[@EverlastMsg]

@@Delicashilous self burn cards are banned

[@Delicashilous]

@@EverlastMsg good, they fixed it.

[@honourablemuslim2155]

It's Very refreshing and we couldn't request anything better ngl

[@shoaquem]

Big bruh. The event is (eventually) going to get "figured out" (if it isn't yet) and everyone is going to run "the same deck with no creativity" just for the sake of getting gems. "new combos" will get "old" when this happens and your complain of "everybody keeps playing the same deck nowdays" will arise. So quit the game and move on or see what *you* can may possibly *do* to counter other's strategy and keep playing. Bot.

[@toblerone1729]

There's a scuffed version of Shaddolls with Magistus, heavy on the backrow, usable for this event

[@jonathancurl7477]

Yo you got a deck list on this?!

[@zackvenomable]

Can you share the decklist

[@Asch_Ente]

So many good decks to pick from this festival. I'm playing Counter Trap Fairies with Fluffal (Dog/Bear/Wing/Vendor) + Star Seraph (Stick/Chair) engine for draw. Condemned Witch is like playing 3 more copies of Bountiful Artemis, but it also searches Forbidden Chalice/Dress on NS which is nice. Counter Traps available are Seven Tools, Magic Jammer, Forced Back and Negate Attack. Can also play Divine Wrath if you don't mind the discard. End game I just search Forbidden Dress with Condemned Witch and then banish it for CED which is S/T immune because of the Dress so I can reliably resolve the CED wipe. Also a really generically splashable guard this format for going 2nd is Guan Yun. It's Cyber Dragon summon condition and you can OPT pop a card if opponent has more monsters, really nice.

[@chriswilliams4103]

What’s CED? And what’s your ratios? Asking for my dog lol

[@Juicedgodmode]

@@chriswilliams4103 Chaos Imperator dragon

[@eduardotrejo6331]

Hey man we're almost running the same star seraph build. Added the chaos monsters to the deck as well (chaos sorc and ced). Im using the dangers engine to have a bit of extra draw power

[@micky2262]

You have a list for your counter fairys?

[@AlphaSquadZero]

You can't activate CED the turn you activate dress.

[@chaosbug7]

Thanks for the megalith suggestion build. Been trying it out & I’ve been having a blast with it

[@holydiver4988]

havent watched through yet but i hope dragunity or some form of dragon/wyrm deck is on here

[@imikegaming2070]

You are such a life saver.. can't wait until the day where I'm confident enough to attempt to build a deck on my own. Feel we get a bit of everything, unbiased look on the game from your content. Appreciate you. ✌

[@renaldyhaen]

If you play Kaiju, you can use Jester Confit as support. It can bounce a special summon monster back to hand.

[@bruvbruv7504]

Konami is ruinning this game...how dare they introduce a format: with fair and balanced decks, with no blow out cards and where skilled play acctually gets rewarded...THIS IS NOT YGO KONAMI!!!

[@trevornewman3477]

I think I’m going with a Krawlers list because there’s so many good Rare traps

[@osotnasrabka]

yoo, any advice on good trap with krawler deck?

[@trevornewman3477]

@@osotnasrabka broken line is insane and needle ceiling is awesome because it doesn’t destroy any face down monsters. There’s the world legacy traps with some good synergy, TT is always good too and I also play dinomischus. Let me know if you find any other good traps. The deck lowkey takes too long to kill with cause there aren’t many ways to get damage on board so that’s my issue with the deck right now.

[@xFATMAN192x]

There’s a surprising amount of deck variety for this event, but even so I expect to see a LOT of Metalfoes.

[@not-clic]

I'm going to play Burning Abyss this event too probably ahah. Cir, Alich, Lake, Traveler, Virgil are still there as well as Fiendish Rhino Warrior, Fiend Griefing, Torrential, Dinomischus and a lot of great generic rank 3. Any ba, even the less used ones are still great extender But of course I'm going to experiment something different too as I already play them for the xyz event

[@CANWEGETMUCHHIGHERRRR]

What's ur wincon?

[@not-clic]

@@CANWEGETMUCHHIGHERRRR the same ba has ever had. Be more resource efficient than your opponent and end up winning in the long game The resource management that usually is made of Graf, Cir, Scarm and Dante is replaced by Cir, Traveler, Virgil, Cagnaz (pseudo-Scarm sending the ritual spell), Draghig. The deck has also access to a way to deal with any threat thanks to a good rank 3 toolbox (DDD King Stone Darius and Virtual World - Jaja can out altmost any monster and Super Quantal Mech Beast Grampulse do the same for spell/trap). Also, number 48 and mechquipped angineer by having a quick effect can be used to trigger easily Alich in the opponent turn if you have Cir, Alich itself or Fiendish Rhino Warrior as material. Take note that I will also adjust the deck in the future days based on how it will perform

[@CANWEGETMUCHHIGHERRRR]

@@not-clic Without all the sr cards I don't see it having a good grind game, the main play of looping cir and Dante isn't available, also without dante and Zeus I really don't feel like the deck is going to do anything

[@not-clic]

@@CANWEGETMUCHHIGHERRRR I'm playing it right now. The deck is solid actually, not at the level of metalfoes of course but still very playable

[@rizekamishiro6822]

Imma play majesepter cant target and cant be destroyed pretty good and their traps very solid

[@Yaboyag3]

The next event should be a 3-2-1 event. 1 UR, 2 SRs, 3 Rs, and the rest commons

[@The_Rizzen]

Great video! There is a pretty competitive looking Prank Kids Engine I want to try for this event but the Cyber Dragon deck you had looked fun also. Nice to see MST becoming a 3x card again xD

[@DamorahTalset]

I built a trap monster deck with Ibicella Lutea, Scrum Force, Begone Knave, Statue of Anguish Pattern, Tiki traps, etc. Magic Planter is also basically the only draw 2 card available for the event that isn't ass. I think it's gonna be pretty nasty. Scrum Force and Ibicella protect from targeting and protect each other, and almost all of the generic monster removal and negaiton in this format requires a target.

[@Vloire]

can i know your decklist? seems fun to play,, thanks --

[@DamorahTalset]

Sure. This is just for the N/R event. You can replace the hands with more trap monsters and other stuff if you want, I just wanted an excuse to run hands. Extra deck can be whatever you want, Quantum Cat and Swamp Mirrorer give you some flexibility as to what you can put in there. Monsters: 3x Fire Hand 3x Ice Hand 3x Ibicella Lutea Spells: 3x Magic Planter Traps: 3x Paleozoic Dinomischus 3x Begone, Knave! 3x Tiki Curse 3x Tiki Soul 3x Statue of Anguish Pattern 3x Swamp Mirrorer 3x Scrum Force 3x Zoma the Spirit 2x Abyss Stungray 2x Quantum Cat

[@Vloire]

@@DamorahTalset thanks!

[@Kaso229]

@@DamorahTalsetNot gonna lie, your deck shits on people 😂

[@TirasWorld]

As a bit of a gag, I added a Cyber Angel Idaten to my Megalith deck to counter the big attack values. It's hilarious to do cause you can just recure your monsters with portal and emergence and continuously tribute Idaten. I ended a game with Phul at 6k attack.

[@iSearchYoutube]

I wish this format could stick around as an option, building for it is really fun. Obviously Metalfoes is really strong, but otherwise it's such an interesting format

[@danielaston4878]

One card I think gunna surprise alot of people is swords of Concealing light. Its doesn't target and it can break boards so you can play. Biggest problem tho is the set mst or trap on activation.

[@lHypedl]

I play cyber dragons in ladder and love it can’t wait to use this deck in the event

can you pls tell me why he plays Double Headed Anger Knuckle

[@rangeless]

That's a rly interesting cyber dragon list. Dna surgery wowwe

[@RanserSSF4]

Giantball park is a solid deck for this event. resonance insect is a normal rare and the level 8 "C" monster can be searched by it, which synergizes nicely with the strategy.

[@TheFujiwaraYusuke]

Thank you mate. love your content

[@zzZDarKCroWZzz]

Best handtraps for the event? There arent that many but would like to see if there viable.

[@MarioLopez-xs3vc]

I think Retaliating "C" could be pretty useful, it gives a Macro Cosmos like effect when special summoned by its effect, which is a spell cards that summon trigger. So that's everything from generic fusion and ritual cards to making tokens to popping an Area Zero. And when it leaves the field you can search out one of the other handtrap "C"s, though those are a lot more niche, most of them cover specific summon types(and there's no Maxx "C" for the format). A shame you can't also search their 2k beater or bug equipping boss monster with it, but it is what it is. Battle Fader is also pretty nice, depending on what strategy you're running ending a battle phase might just give enough tempo to win you the game(and you can trigger your own Torrential Tribute with it if need be).

[@zzZDarKCroWZzz]

@@MarioLopez-xs3vc Yh i thought of "c" as well but the only cards it hits that might be popular are the generaider field and phantasm field (might be missing a few) and mst does a better job at hitting those. Fader doesnt seem good, the format is gonna be slow and wont have many decks that can otk on first turn.

[@isaacsmith6482]

I would watch out for Majespecters as well, even though they are vulnerable to pendulum zone disruption.

[@thatsunusual6640]

I’m playing appliancers/lefty & righty driver and sphere kuriboh. All targets for jack in the hand and where ard thou. Out Resources grinding like the gadgets

[@ravitegar6582]

Danger Dark World Fabled really explosive but rely on the RNGesus. I include paleo package as well and it's quite good.

[@6701kirby]

Wholly heck first time seeing lithium face 👍 I’m using metalfoes combined with fire/ice hands (wish I could play a version of H.A.T) with majespector lol

[@LunaDachi]

Other than Metalfoes seeming very oppressive, the format seems sick. I’d love it if it stayed as a budget format so you can enjoy the game without heavy investment in staples or UR engine cards

[@DreamerGalaxius]

What is the second target for Draglubion in these decks? I only see Number 92. But you need two Dragon Number Monsters with different names.

[@marval7989]

Another Sub! Saludos desde Venezuela!

[@1BionicPenguin]

I feel as though Blackwing could also be used in this format. Some good Blackwings can still be used and Delta Crow - Anti Reverse just gets me thinking because it's basically a Harpies Feather Duster so long as you have a Blackwing

so i have realized that you can play venderead and this is probably the best environment for it. i don't know how good it is but you have the og ritual and all the main deck monsters that give you the effects and something like samurai skull to get to your ritual and if you get a target protected 3400 atk can banish a monster monster you probably can win with that.

@@Thatoneguy48147 Thank you, I was curious because, I had DNA surgery activated turned my opponents 2 monsters to Machine, and had my Cyber Dragon summoned, but could not special summon Chimeratech Fortress Dragon, so not sure what went wrong. Didn't notice any hindering effects on the board.

[@Thatoneguy48147]

@@Azure_Six it could be that you couldn’t send them to the grave. All materials need to be able to hit the grave in order to summon Fortress or even Megafleet. Thats why if anything would get banish instead (by their own effect or another) they cant be used as material for it

Cyber dragon build you could add power bond and the fusion monster to summon would ve pair cycroid which can attack directly and is also level 5 so not a dead card after attacking
