Yu-Gi-Oh! Red-Eyes Black Dragon 2018 Deck Profile!

[@alecfields1153]

Do you you think Red Eyes will get a link monster?? #AskTheSquad

[@joethedragonking7341]

Alec Fields I thought the organization announced one...not talking bout darkness dragon one either

[@zerocell2154]

Alec Fields honestly, i think darkness metal, the dark steel dragon is the red-eyes Linkin monster, even though it doesn't say "red-eyes"

[@zerocell2154]

Have you tried a red-eyes lair of darkness deck profile? Its mean and can tear down a blue-eyes deck if you play it right

[@Crow_Engine]

Alec Fields Not before Blue Eyes W. Dragon!

[@terratheterribl]

if the past is any indication, it will completely useless in a competitive red eyes deck and will support light spirit monsters or some shit

[@M3G4T3RR4]

I use Red Eyes Black Dragon because i won it from this Dino Dork at a duel island once.

[@jasonyu1150]

I just wanna say I love this format of deck profiles. All of you do the best you can to actually explain your choices and what they do in the deck, as opposed to so many other deck profiles that show the cards and then keep going. Your channel manages to find the middle ground between not explaining anything, and explaining everything in a sort of condescending way. Keep up the good work, especially with these legacy decks, which are some of my favorite to play, and watch from you guys

[@TeamAPS]

*HEY! HAVE YOU SEEN THE RED-EYES B. DRAGON???* If you have, could you Like the video? Maybe if we get 1,000 Likes it will finally appear... 🔥

[@XxWarBirdxX-bv8tx]

Team APS How much did this deck cost/what packs did you buy to get these cards?

[@winter978]

Team APS seen hime in the deck

[@darthdragonborn1076]

Id still use red eyes darkness dragon,just because it looks cool and its not hard to summon

[@augo8973]

"He can be whatever you want him to be" Yeah he can 😈

[@theaverageDon]

Red-Eyes Fusion would be 10 times better if its negative effect was similar to that of Ties of the Brethren

[@MrDavidRicketts]

Red Eyes is my absolute favorite! I would love to see him get a Synchro Pendulum and Link card

[@Gatitasecsii]

Thank you for not being like other YGO MLG youtubers out there, and taking your time to explain each monster. I appreciate it.

[@Maureen_Flanagan]

I loved this video!! I used to run Red-Eyes many years ago (I’m old AF) and it was so awesome to see a modern take on the deck.

[@alecfields1153]

momokoseiya Red-Eyes makes us all feel old

[@Maureen_Flanagan]

Alec Fields you ain’t kidding.

[@DOESITMATTER7734]

Love red eyes too. Ran a bunch of different strategies. Currently I've been useing the 3 fang of critias with the traps needed for the fusions like mirror force d, destruction d, doom virus d, and it works well they're great and come out easy if you don't have the cards you need

[@chrisburns9898]

I’ve been toying around with a PK red eyes deck revolving around stunning the opponent with slash and the pk traps. It’s actually been quite effective.

[@DragonmasterSK]

Red Eyes shoul get support that synergyzes well with everything they have. They do have amazing cards, but their cards consist in sending them to the gy and reviving them... although the payoff isn´t particularily good or broken. I love their artwork and Red eyes is probably one of my favorite all time, but Cyber Dragon has much better support that actually synergizes and that's kinda sad cuz Red Eyes is a fan favorite from the OG series

[@-Cetus-]

If they focused on equip and burn and got rid of the gemini, it'd be pretty solid and unique.

[@DragonmasterSK]

Yeah, I mean... equipping is all Joey. Other than his multiple "luck" based cards, he really emphasized on manipulating monster stats and equiping his monsters with cheesy cards (and we all love that s*) But unfortunately we haven't got proper Red Eyes support. Let's hope we get it along the way

[@diamonshade7484]

@@DragonmasterSK and why does all the red eyes beatsticks not have red eyes in the name

[@NTG360]

Great deck profile! Yeah haven't been able to update my red-eyes deck with the new support since there are still expensive..hoping there is reprints or price drops soon.

[@dynamicdiode1740]

NTG360 facts bro having bread for this deck is insane. Especially for the core build of this deck such as the red stone ,gearfried and black flare

[@tallsmoothie165]

How much is deck building for red eyes?

[@dragon-id5uj]

Yo APS young men: very clever use of past tense with "liked" and "subscribed". Cool camera transition as well; feels like y'all leveled up again

[@spokenanime2991]

The thing i love about the red eyes is that it still can fight on par (or so i assume) with blue eyes still, the support isn't as much there like Red-eyes support though.

[@firewall-pass]

This deck looks like a fun build 👍🏻 I personally only play 1 Gearfried because I want my main normal summon to be King of D, I also play Dragon Shrine at 3 and 1 Darkwurm. If you open King of D, Dragon Shrine and Insight this deck goes off

[@alecfields1153]

Ben Hefford we were discussing darkwurm for the combo version

[@salvagesigh9705]

I......... LOVE IT!!!! One of my favorite decks of all time!!!

[@salvagesigh9705]

(Btw I run a bunch of link 4s

[@justinfrost7970]

I run r.e. archfiend of lightning along with some of the staple cards. I like the usage of him being able to pop front row with his gemini effect if the opponent doesn't have very good defending monsters and if you are lucky, it can even contend with bad boys like blue eyes. It is just a suggestion just in case you don't have the new gearfried card just yet :D

[@LightningDaniels]

Archfiend of gilfer may be decent because it can clear and opponents back row combining it with Gearfried. Being able to pitch with as a discard for certain cards is helpful as well or even foolish burial.

[@aaronramirez495]

Very big fan of red eyes

[@jackslayer9719]

one of my favorite combo ( if it doesn't brick which it can ) is to run 1 copy of xangki magician so when i have flare metal on the field i can use both of them bring out odd eyes raging dragon and destroy their board and attack for game

[@ejaydeyro5432]

I like the KOD with Rhapsody, I might add that into my red eyes build. I use the burn effects that Red Eyes cards offer, like Archfiend Black Skull Dragon and Black Flare. As long as theyre on the field after damage step its 2400 to the opponents face. I also run Red Eyes Burn to add salt to injury.

[@d.e.g.e.3061]

Inferno fire blast?

[@jordanmcdow8328]

This was my first legacy deck and my favorite monster set from the legend himself...JOEY WHEELER!! One thing I've tried and like a lot, take out 1 cards of red stone for an allure or desires and take out one of the gemini red eyes for a blue-eyes spirit dragon. Works so well with pulsar, helps with back row removal, and if you run return of the dragon lords, it's amazing!

[@Altigue]

Alright. Since you asked for different techs and card choices I’ll tell you what I do. My only real complaint with your variant is that you are only running 1 Flare Metal. He’s the best Monster red eyes has and he’s really easy to make. That being said I think 4-5 level 7s is a-okay and is more than enough to get a triple flare metal board. 2 Black Metal dragon?... I say 3 because he’s quite literally never a dead card. Nothing to equip him to? That’s fine. Link him off to linkuriboh and you have a search. But you can equip him to your level 7 red eyes then overlay 2 of them and you have a search. I would say bump him to 3 and drop insight to 2. Black metal dragon is just begging to be abused with that lack of a OPT clause. I never Found myself needing more than 2 gearfried and I never felt I needed to search him (I would rather search REDMD or Black Flare). So I scratched RotA off the list of mine. I don’t really like the King of D/Rhapsody combo. I never had a spell to discard nor did I ever have a spellcaster when I already had Rhapsody. The cards bricked and ended up dead most of the time. Cards of the red stone is really the only draw spell you need. Allure can brick or be unresolvable and sacred swords hurts you a lot. But cards of red jewel is just perfect. And at 2? That’s the best ratio. Silvers cry could be bumped to two helps consistency. Traps? 2-3 fangs is good. What’s your opinion on Return of the Red-Eyes? I’m still not certain about that card. Onto the extra deck. Everything good but I would cut a couple of the link 3/4s because honestly you probably won’t make them that often. It seems like you like them all equally and don’t know which ones warrant being cut. But what do I know? Personally I only do the qliphort-proxy d-link spider- into Saryuja as my 42 combo. When Dark Armed the XYZ dragon comes out in TCG you should add that, it’s special XYZ summoning effect comes out a lot more than you would expect. Are you running a side deck?

[@d.e.g.e.3061]

Return of the red eyes is very good, play 2-3. Also insight at 3 is perfect (a searcher and foolish burial for the deck).

[@Altigue]

Danis González insight at 3 is useless because it can brick hard core, there’s not that many S/Ts that you wanna search anyway (the traps are extras but you don’t NEED them, and fusion is only good to search turn 1 or when you need to Summon a big monster to win), return of the red eyes is great at 2, but cloggy at 3, I don’t know why people insist on using cards that have Hard OPT restrictions on them at 3, it’s overrated and wastes deck space, especially when said cards are already searchable. Return of the red eyes is a good trap, but it’s still a trap, making it slow and unreliable should your opponent kill it before you can use either of its effects accordingly. But IF it does go off it gets you Some decent advantage.

[@farrisbukhari5318]

Your take on red eyes is very interesting, I never actually considered dragon revival Rhapsodys or king of D Being implemented into the deck thanks for sharing

[@animatichunter4906]

i like keeping my red eyes as close to just red eyes monsters as possible so i run things like claw of hermos into red eyes dragons sword which could easily be game ending right there or used for slash dragons effect etc red eyes for life!. always has been my fav

[@Merjedmedia]

I wanna see some meteor b dragon action. Love those old school cards because people be sleepin on em

[@jackslayer9719]

well the one question i have for this is that since you're not running archfiend why not run 2 vanilla red eyes and 3 flare

[@dylantuttle753]

Would have liked if you could show some combos but I know there are few of those and they all involve tomahawk

[@MrMark28]

That’s cool, makes me want to build one like it. I currently am making a blue eyes but slowly

[@alex_fields]

Hey, I'm trying to find the Red Eyes B. Dragon. Have you seen it???

[@dvvartanddesign]

Alex Fields if you are looking for other options to go into for Red Eyes. Me and my bud made a Red Eyes burn deck that focused on using Red Eyes Fusion into Comet Dragon to use with Inferno fire blast. It has FTK potential and we splashed in a small Critias engine. With the new Critics fusion, we found it added to the burn and the other Critias fusions like Mirror Force Dragon were nothing to scoff at.

[@skailerderkonigderdiebe5499]

the prize for not being first ?????? NOT being the last to resolve .

[@Fugo7]

Throw in 2 Lord of The Red and 2 Red Eyes Transmigration, even if he’s removed he can be put back in play with Red Eyes Darkness Metal, anything with a dragon tag does. And having him is just more removal. You can search for the Transmigration with Red Eyes Insight. Lord of The Red Works very well with any Red Eyes deck and I think you should give it a try and see what you think

[@Nyashathe3rd]

I’ve added summon sorceress. She is a spellcaster, can easily pull a lvl 7 out the deck for xyz plays, and is a spellcaster so works with rhapsody

[@Kxng_Ixferno]

Running the archfiend build with summoned skull, and gemini version will open up more draw opportunities with the level 6 draw card in CYHO, probably gonna try that out

[@dynamicdiode1740]

Planet Sniper they've tried it. Check their earlier work.

[@robertt.8629]

Mmm, this build is everywhere. What are you trying to do go first or second? I reckon that baby dragon is actually insane going second it seems. Or if you go first maybe main 3 dragons bind?

[@Maramara13Fly]

Give Buster blader and his destruction swords some love please...

[@sycosi5416]

Keeper of the dragon magic would be a good one to add to grab red eyes fusion or even search a claw of hermos technically. Then if you had a red eyes in the grave yard you can use its second effective to get it from the graveyard

[@flyingchicken40]

Thank for the profile! The only new Red-Eyes support I'm using is Fang With Chain; the rest of my deck is still Gemini/XYZ/Fusion-focused, with a little Synchro sprinkled in thanks to Effect Veiler. I believe the Tomahawk/Kind of D. variant is technically the best one though.

[@BabyMatrix69]

Nice deck idk why I still like your red eyes profile u posted back in 2016

[@MrDavidRicketts]

Red Eyes needs WAY more support. It needs to be able to take on Blue eyes and be able to win

[@handyboy1899]

I like the red eyes archetype

[@jamesyoung2428]

I never understood why Red-eyes B. Dragon's name was never errataed to "Red-eyes Black Dragon"

[@omega5040]

Then you have to reword all the support cards that read Red Eyes B Dragon to read Black. Should of been Black from the begining, guess Konami America thought it was too long of a name to read.

[@Colbrax]

James Young back then, racial tension was high so they didn't. They could pull a harpie where they make a "Red-Eyes Black Dragon" whose name is always treated as "Red-Eyes B. Dragon". You never know

[@jamesyoung2428]

Colbrax 1996 but that doesn't explain why there's a Blue-eyes White Dragon and not a Blue-eyes W. Dragon.

[@jamesyoung2428]

omega5040 they were able to rename Red-eyes Black Chick to Black Dragon Chick or whatever after all these years with no backlash.... Although it probably helped that no one plays that card lol.

[@pearserooney1307]

James Young the reason they renamed chick though was so they didn't have to keep saying on every red eyes card except red eyes b chick

[@omega5040]

I just wish Red Eyes wasn't the experimentation deck Konami treats it as. Every support card that comes out does something completely different than the rest of the other support cards and it doesn't synergies properly. It feels like the unloved middle child while Dark Magician and Blue Eyes get all the love.

[@_Asleep_]

Woah this is pretty close to my build of the Redeyes. I run the divine dragon lords with him like arkbrave and felgrand just 1 of each though. Paladin for search and revival giving some what of a soft loop with slasher. Twin triangle can usually pump out one or maybe even two flare metal first turn occasionally. Although it can take quite a few resources. Id probably look into maybe one Redeyes Retro for extended plays into it with the possibility for a searchable recovery option on an opponents turn, but i never thought of rashpemy. Either way good deal and keep up the unlimited potential!

[@rogerrabbit132]

I would love to see an Archfiend deck profile. Royal archfiend or chess archfiend would be awesome.

[@Airborn218]

Kaiba Disliked this.

[@cyrilmartin5613]

is the new wyrm link, dragon agave, a good option as a finisher ? It can burn a lot with all the dragons in the GY

[@mcbeth5168]

I love red eyes. What i want is red eyes equip spells that do more like attack bost or protction. Or even revival to bring back stuff. Then we need a link that's like isolde that work with the eqiup and dragons

[@sasunouchiha1400]

Hey I really like the deck profile but whats you're thoughts on red eyes wyvern

[@alecfields1153]

Sasuno Uchiha it's a bit dated, but it synergizes so well

[@sasunouchiha1400]

Alec Fields thanks for the reply yeah it's came in clutch quite a bit for me.

[@deltaquarayza]

I mean, dragon shrine it with a red-eyes and passing is WAY better than setting and passing

[@Metalkake]

Extremely well spoken and explained. Thanks sir!

[@Cheeky_Samurai]

Are you gonna do another Red-Eyes deck profile?

[@Hynotama]

You should consider running Archfiend Black Skull Dragon. It doesn't allow your opponent to activate anything when he attacks, until the battle is over.

[@chrissciberras2809]

Such a fantastic card

[@Verum_XXII]

The older videos of the legacy deck profiles got me back into the game. I unfortunately didn't keep playing bro as all these decks suck and I invested lol

[@Exisist5151]

Hey team aps. I’m relatively new so don’t laugh at me but how does cyberdarks x red eyes sound since they both are equip based. I’m thinking a combo play behind having a baby dragon set it gets knocked out by battle (kinda rare) you float it into a gearfried send to grave and then next turn you get it back out of the grave with a cyberdark card to get potentially another black stone of legend.

[@platnimsoap]

So are we gettin a red eyes vs dark magician?

[@Kairnestar]

Veey similar ratios to what I use. Though I do not have the royal house of D. yet on my side

[@jameshendricks6738]

Why not try Red Eyes Wyvern at on there are a lot of plays possible with him and dragon shrine being able to summon Black dragon to the field for the times the deck bricks, maybe try taking out one cards of the stone?!

[@darknova7863]

My favorite deck of all time, l don't really play often, but l always keep m REBD ready. Wish konami gave him more solid support

[@averagenolife6860]

I'm kinda curious, are these builds free for anyone to use for their own? I'm kinda knew to these videos.

[@goalhornfanatic9449]

Can someone answer a question for me? Card text is a little confusing. Red Eyes Black Sword, can I Fusion Summon him with Red Eyes Fusion? I know he has to be Special Summoned with Claw of Hermos, but what about Fusion Summoning?

[@mobilegamer9092]

You may want to run the claw of hermos and red eyes black dragon sword

[@tallsmoothie165]

How much did you spend building this deck? I want to build a red eyes deck myself.

[@melechameleonwarrior7410]

My favorite archtype Why only few people play red-eyes deck in tournament?

[@Crafftyyy]

Would be awesome if for these videos you guys could include a download link for ygopro or dark nexus for easy import

[@Colbrax]

I feel red-eyes needs three things. A rank 8 flare metal upgrade, a way to activate red-eyes fusion during opponent's turn as well as a (Blue-Eyes needs one too) galaxy soldier but for red-eyes that's level 7. Black flare bricks, Blue-Eyes alternative needs bewd, but if they got their own glaxaxy soldier retrains then they'd do phenomenal. Red-eyes one could special summon another lv 7 red-eyes from deck, hand or grave for example while Blue-Eyes could special summon a level 1 light tuner or something. Unique enough to work and differ from each. Picture a red-eyes structure deck and a Blue-Eyes deck coming out in like a red vs blue legendary decks thing but it has 5 promos that help both like a new draw card, purple eyes fusion who gains effects based on who you use. I dunno, just feel like they have potential but Konami doesn't focus on treating them with enough respect to make them competively viable (I main Blue-Eyes and although we won world's, I think it was mainly because most people were playing Blue-Eyes at the time for nostalgia"

[@duskknight8413]

Thank you for this amazing Red-eyes build

[@christopherbouska6779]

The gemini monster doesn’t even have to destroy anything by battle. It just has to battle which is awesome.

[@codyjacoby2577]

No archfiend black skull dragon? Any reason why?

[@voraminfantes5264]

Have you tried messing with the OCG skill drain variant?

[@direhunter7045]

Try using the archfiend fusion and use 3 black metal drag make king of d 2

[@SirKartsAlot]

2:31 red eyes baby dragon kinda looks like Kamari dragon

[@zander1116]

What was the last card you showed? The link card

[@natemitchell7812]

First rare from my 1st 1stEd LOB pack was a red eyes

[@Arashikage-tk8zw]

Where did you get your red card sleeves from?

[@glensullivan5737]

You could have Triple Burst Dragon as link 3, double Darkest Diabolos, Lord of the Lair and maybe Dark Horus and a single Trade-In. As Triple Burst has a tribute effect it will trigger Darkest Diabolos as will the Black Stones. Anyhow love what you put together

[@royoregel724]

This is off topic but in your opinion what happen with no banlist

[@austinbrown3014]

Please do an update to this deck profile

[@Tohfool]

What you think of red eyes/stardust deck?

[@ShadowKing08]

I know this is an older video, but I have a question about the Red-eyes fusion spell if anyone could help. The sentence that states "You cannot Normal or Special Summon other monsters the turn you activate this card." Does that mean that if I have normal or special summoned before using this card then I cant activate it this turn? Or can it be used as a combo ender so to speak, using my summons before it and just not being able to summon after? Thanks for any help!

[@ra-hoor-khuit4556]

Can play with the otk cubic? It not work well

[@mobilegamer9092]

Hi where do you get red-eyes baby dragon

[@RedMew-fg7nz]

1:03 it just has to attack that turn not destroy a monster by battle.

[@frozenflower1239]

Where do you get all of those cards??

[@xXTheriaultXx]

The idea of the egg hatching a gearfried warrior is pre' funny lol

[@anwarhossainchowdhury6670]

That deck is lit but if you want there are some cards that can help the deck like Return of the red eyes, Red eyes spirit, and also Inferno fire blast. So yeah I think it might help the deck, until next time.

[@jaskuri6913]

"Nyeh" translated Joey wheeler approves this deck profile

[@Junol23]

Gearfried doesn't read with, "During either player's turn." I do not think you can destroy spell or trap during either player's turn.

[@lotakudelquartiere]

man, soul charge is banned, how could it be replaced?

[@luke7120]

Making an FTK red eyes burn deck. Using comets fusion effect thing.

[@vagos093]

I already have one FTK red -eyes burn deck..but after links came on yugioh world i lose in 2 turns and if I can't win the first round I lose the next...yugioh is a big mess nowadays

[@raymondbasurto199]

This and Team Sam’s profile are almost identical (Lightpulsar misses timing). The problem I see with Lord of D is if you only get Rhapsody, it’s completely useless and bricks hands since there are no other spellcasters or ways to special summon him

[@joshm5290]

red eyes fang with chain is so good cuz if you time it right you can stop a DPE

[@bossler91]

This is very close to my own build. Great minds think a like.

[@lukeboylan7901]

God I love red-eyes. Lord of red is easily my favourite though and he ain't even good support😂

[@diamonshade7484]

They should remake lord of the red

I got my little sis a starter deck it is time space showdown when she gets good with it what shiuld i do to help her move on wether i get her a structure deck or inprove in the cards she has

Evan Pittinger after she gets used to her deck make her use one that focuses on fusion summoning, then synchro, xyz, etc.

[@evanpittinger6862]

Thanks and what about afyer she learns about all of those

[@evanpittinger6862]

I gave her a link dragon a syncro and xyz monster

[@M1FrankGaming]

Thats a great build man! I dropped red-eyes and quit the game few months ago, came back into it to play Fur Hire. Idk if i will ever fully pick up red-eyes again, based on my knowledge of the deck before thats a great build.

[@Headkrakk]

Can these work with red eyes zombie?
