Yu-Gi-Oh! BEST! 1ST PLACE OTS CYBER DRAGON DECK PROFILE! APRIL 2019 FORMAT! ANTI-META (OTS LOCALS)

[@kelvinhernandez4714]

I bought Cyber Emergency for $4 when it first came out then fell off the game and recently came back and found that the card is valued at $35! Sweet!

[@brittis_n3xus]

another good thing to point out is that if linkuriboh is in the gy, you can use its quick effect to dodge veiler, impermanence, etc on nashter if they try to do so.

[@Richard-sq1ml]

3 effect veiler, 3 ash blossoms, 2 ghost ogres and 3 Thanos Dragons seem a bit bricking.

[@tardis2802]

i've tried it, and it's exremely bricky, i'd draw hands with 1 phantazmay, effect veiler, and ash. in a deck relying on a good hand i'd run 3 phantazmay, 3 effect, and 2 ghost ogre/ ash blossom at most

You can only overlay for Infinity via Nova ONCE PER TURN.

[@DarkStunn]

It's not a hard once per turn

[@YGOLimburg]

DarkStunn it literatly is, read the card lol

[@TJackson736]

It is a soft once per turn. Meaning that you can use it once for each copy of it. So having two CDIs in your ED allows you to rank up twice. It only has soft once per turns as well.

[@adampainter103]

No, it's a hard once per turn. If it were a soft were per turn, it would say, "you can xyz summon this card". But it has the name, "Cyber Dragon Infinity" regarding it's summoning, meaning that you can only summon 1 infinity per turn. So at this point you're arguing that you don't know the rules.

[@tardis2802]

​@@TJackson736 it literally doesn't even make sense if it was a soft once per turn, you can only summon infinity with Nova once per turn, OR you can xyz summon it with 3 level 6 light machines.

[@crimsonphoenix2094]

Nice. Cyber Dragon Deck profile. Been waiting for this

[@nicholaspacini9495]

These are by far the best deck profiles. Rouge/Former Meta Decks have so much potential because of MR5. So many random archetypes (Prank kids/Mermail/Cyber) can be updated. Seeing you go through them is satisfying. Appreciate you doing the work for me. lol

[@KartongBoiii]

[@m7in]

DNA Surgery for that Fortress plays

[@NDtermN8]

...and for countering Zombie World.

[@YGOLimburg]

I think its inferno reckless summon

[@NDtermN8]

​@@YGOLimburg That'd be some nice tech, but it requires your opponent have a face-up monster and would benefit them if they also have multiple copies of their choosing. It's one of the main reasons Machine Dupe is preferred. On the other hand, it is a 2nd turn deck to begin with if OTKing is the strategy. Sadly, having 3 extra Machine Dupes would probably ruin consistency. Remember that you can only use said card once unless you recycle your OG Cyber Dragons back into the deck often. [Then again, everything in GY is treated as "Cyber Dragon", so it is better that it's not restricted to Deck.]

[@YGOLimburg]

John thats why he sides it

[@teamdbake187]

[@DarioJZ15]

Quick note TSX1 as someone that also played CyDra's at the Brooklyn regionals this past Sunday: cut Borreload for Cyber Eternity. I cant tell you how underappreciated Cyber Eternity is as a win condition, also cut Nachster down to 2 and Galaxy Soldier to 2. It's very rare that you actually want to see the 3rd Nachster or the 3rd Galaxy Soldier. Run One for One and another card of your choosing

[@von254]

I've tested both at 3 and the amount of awkward hands were ridiculous. I feel as if nachster and galaxy soldier conflict with each other a bit

[@anastasis2811]

Overload is one of the best cards in the deck. Rampage out of nothing and can destroy so many spells and traps

[@BlueEyesLX]

Overload just wins so many duels.

[@seanfowler3966]

I love all your deck profiles, but the one I've been waiting for is platinum abc's.

[@ClassicDura]

Also you can't summon infinity twice in the same turn by overlaying into Nova.

[@hlzeron]

Why not?

[@demonicfox232]

@@hlzeron because Infinity says so. It literally says on the card that you can only use Nova as its material once per turn.

@@demonicfox232 Damn I was on lunch and didn't see the response but yes that's the reason. It's on the card.

[@TJackson736]

@@demonicfox232 Its a soft once per turn so you can do it once per copy of CDI.

[@adampainter103]

It is a hard once per turn these kids telling you that you can summon multiple via Nova either don't understand English, don't know the rules, or are purposefully cheating. Keep calling out these guys who think they can summon multiple in one turn.

[@TheGaMuSiTa]

Are you sure Overload is not good enough? It can be an extender (use rampage to overlay), it can help you do an extra search with Herz , it can help you OTK, it can help you blow 2 or 3 back row if needed, it can help you waste your opponent's resources, or make them waste their resources and then finish them with Overload. I think it's a one of at least in the deck. I personally play 2 because It's always a good card. I wouldn't play 3 cause it might brick, but with 2, you can even activate it twice on that turn.

[@something12340]

Considering Chimeratech Fortress, I’d say your meta call in the side is DNA Surgery. Makes it so you just contact the entire board and also destroys there can only be one’s strategy.

[@avengerofzendikar]

CyDra was a really strong match-up in my nats. Unfortunately I wasn't up against decks I had sided the most strongly against like Salad, Orcust, Endymion and Mystic Burn.

[@__senjutsu]

Much more impressed with this CyDra profile Sam. A little bit of an oversaturation with the Hand traps but not a bad build. You may wanna revamp the extra deck but that just me. Good video 👌🏾

I have an honest question regarding this deck: I have seen a lot of lists not playing Called by the Grave - why not? Seems strange to me that the deck has such a big power play with Machine Dupe that if you opponent uses Ash on you, that sucks. So why not have Called by to stop that?

Not sure why, but it's not a waste of resources. It's actually quite the opposite, Borreload literally steals games. As long as you can get the materials and find it worth it, you make it. I've had several times where a Borreload Dragon has been the solution to all of my problems. Besides, if you can make the Gryphon, you can make the Borreload

[@P90Expert136]

Why do you play the fortress dragon with no jizukiru?

[@awilli599]

I'm guessing cause you can make fortress with the sky striker link monsters since they are machine monsters. Can use orchust machines as fusion material as well. Also insanely great for the mirror match. Jizukiru probably got cut to make room for the Nachsters

[@williamcronshaw5262]

It's probably more because of all of the hand traps (he's playing 11 of them afterall). Nachster can definitely be cut to 2 for Jizukiru though, Nachster's more of a 1 or 2 of in my opinion. It's very searchable and you don't really want to see it in your opening hand because it can contribute to bricks and it restricts your extra deck plays. Nachster really shines in the mid to late game because it can revive all of your boss monsters.

You dont make a second infinity in the same turn you revive a previously summoned infinity from an earlier turn with nachster as it has 2100 attack then make another one by uping another nova nova can discard material to revive a cyber dragon so if that one is nachster then it can also revive an infinity then the nova you just used can be used for the second infinity
