0:00the number one most accurate meta tier
0:02list right here, right now. There's
0:04going to be zero bias and I'm going to
0:06be super indepth with a lot of these
0:07choices. I'm not going to BE TELLING YOU
0:10PIN BEST DECK, BRO. I'M GOING TO GIVE
0:12YOU REAL answers here. People have this
0:14tendency to say, "Wow, this deck got
0:17banned. It must be horrible." Or, "This
0:21deck had no hits. It must be the best
0:23deck now." When quite frankly, there's a
0:25reason why a lot of these cards that
0:26didn't get banned didn't get banned.
0:28because they maybe suck. So, this will
0:30be super analytical and actually
0:32in-depth and give you a real answer. Not
0:34what the world wants to hear, but a real
0:35answer. So, let's get started on this
0:37tier list. Before we do though, make
0:39sure to get your medius masterass. Now,
0:41it goes without saying the elf note was
0:43barely touched on this list. And I'm
0:45actually going to be posting a super
0:48upto-date extra chapters. In fact, I'll
0:51be posting 10 extra lessons over here
0:54for you guys to master. I already
0:56included my exact Houston update before
0:59Houston. In fact, if you got this
1:01before, you could have been you could
1:02have got top four YCS yourself if you
1:05got this before. And yeah, I actually
1:07got about $3,000 worth of prizing. Uh so
1:11yeah, I mean it's pretty damn good. And
1:13I'll be updating every single YCS and
1:16every single ban list. So with that
1:17being said, let's get started. These
1:19will be the decks that I'll be
1:20mentioning. And I'm even going to add a
1:23little bit of Magnificent Maestros
1:25included as where I think they're going
1:27to be post list. So, let's get started.
1:30Oh, also get the Angeli masterass down
1:32below, which is obvious, as obviously
1:36everyone knows, it's going to be a
1:37pretty damn good deck. So, actually, I
1:39want to start with Angeli right now. So,
1:41Angeli is uh one of the decks that
1:44people think is going to be like tier
1:47zero
1:48postb list. Let's let's talk about this
1:51a little bit. People think Angeli is
1:53going to be tier zero.
1:56Guys, listen. I'm actually, you know, I
1:58took a long time to really master Angeli
2:00because you got to really master a deck
2:01to destroy it. So, after my Medius
2:04master class, I thought to myself, let
2:05me really master Angeli, do a master
2:08class on it, and learn how to really
2:09destroy it. Let me tell you guys
2:10something. This deck does have issues.
2:12It does. Where Angeli thrives is the
2:15number one counter to heavy combo decks.
2:17That's where Angelichi really, really
2:18thrives. I even made Angeli a tier one
2:22like like low-end tier one deck before
2:24people were even remotely thinking of
2:26that it's a real deck because Angeli
2:29before the new support was [ __ ] dog
2:31[ __ ] but with the new support it's
2:33really really good. So where do I put
2:36Angeli? People would say it's the best
2:38deck and a lot of tier lists are putting
2:39as the best deck. Now I have a master
2:42class on this deck. I would love to tell
2:43you guys that this is tier zero best
2:45deck. go buy it now. But quite frankly,
2:48it's not. It is tier It's tier one, but
2:52it's not the best deck. Angeli
2:54specifically thrives in being a counter
2:57deck to what the best deck is. It's a
3:00stun deck with some gimmicks.
3:03It's very good going second, 20, 24 hand
3:05traps.
3:07But at the end of the day, if the entire
3:09world knows the Angeli is the best deck,
3:12it can never be the best deck. There are
3:14so many very specific counters, Dan
3:17Gilletchi, that it can never actually be
3:19the number one deck of a format. It's
3:21made specifically to be the number one
3:23counter. It could be the number one pick
3:25of a format, assuming everyone is on
3:27heavy combo, but if everyone is
3:29respecting Angeli so much, it's not as
3:32broken as you guys think. The biggest
3:34hit to Angeli
3:37is having no hits at all. Mic drop.
3:40Angeli arguably was the most hit deck in
3:42the whole band list. When a target is on
3:44Angeli's back, it becomes hyper dog [ __ ]
3:48because everybody will now be playing
3:50all sorts of anti-angelichi hate because
3:53anyone with the brain understands how
3:54broken this is. What happens when Elf
3:57Note plays every single extra deck card
3:59you could possibly fathom to never lose
4:01to this deck?
4:03As well as every single possible non
4:05engine that you could possibly think of
4:06to counter this deck, it becomes way
4:09worse. I'm still going to put Angelia at
4:11tier one because at the end of the day,
4:12you're going to be dueling absolute
4:14[ __ ] with this deck that you're
4:15going to get a bunch of free wins
4:16because they just don't prepare for how
4:19metas are supposed to be like. So, it's
4:20still tier one due to that purpose. But
4:22if you play a good player in this
4:24upcoming format, they absolutely know
4:26this deck was unhit, meaning that
4:28they're going to prepare their deck
4:29entirely to destroy it. That's where it
4:31lowers its value absolutely
4:33tremendously. I'm going to go ahead and
4:35put some cards immediately into your
4:36Farfa, such as Lamyrinth. I understand.
4:39Cool. Everything gets less. But guys,
4:41listen. Everything is just got like the
4:43the crazy floodgates are gone. It
4:44doesn't make the meta like weaker.
4:47Merlin Antion is officially I brought
4:49this. Originally, I thought this was
4:51tier farfi and it is. But now I'm going
4:53to put this to tier two. In fact, let me
4:55even add
4:58let me add a tier rogue. Okay. This is
5:01decks that could surprise you.
5:05Uh, let's make Rogue Far From. Okay,
5:08decks that could surprise you. I'm still
5:10putting this, you know, I'm going to put
5:11this at Rogue. Okay, you know, my buddy
5:13Rayhon, I saw his list. He put Mermail
5:15pretty high up. Guys, at the end of the
5:17day, Mermail is still Mermail. I
5:19understand we got this massive list and
5:21there's some decks like this that, you
5:23know, kind of went under the radar. Uh,
5:25not even touched on the list whatsoever,
5:26but
5:30there's a reason why Murmale hasn't been
5:32touched. It's super mega hyper ass. I'm
5:35sorry. I'm sorry. I understand, you
5:37know, and I get every deck has its own
5:40shooters, but by saying every deck is
5:42good. No deck is good. You cannot
5:45conflate like like this is a thing of
5:48the past. There's a reason why they they
5:49did this. Okay, Brandon. Now, let me
5:51tell you something, okay? A lot of
5:53branded players, now I'm Brandon's
5:55number one up. Okay, the hate of Branded
5:58uh all fusion decks of Branded and
5:59Branded Drago Tail versus Yummy. This
6:01hate goes for life. You know, this this
6:03is a hate. Like, this is a this is a
6:06serious hate for life. Like, this I ride
6:07out for Yummy. Period. RIP Yummy. And
6:10I'm not just saying this guy don't like
6:11Branded, but I mean, Brandon without
6:13Albon is [ __ ] laughable. I don't care
6:14what what the I saw Josh posted, you
6:17know, he took Pure Branded without Albon
6:20to uh to locals or something and is
6:23doing okay. Yeah, if I took insectors to
6:26locals, I'll do pretty okay, too,
6:28because the difference of me and my
6:30friends at locals is quite astonishing.
6:33I would consider that like me versus
6:34Farfa. You know what I'm saying? Like,
6:36there's just such a high level skill gap
6:38that I could take [ __ ] windups and do
6:40all right. So, you know, even though
6:42Josh is taking Branded to locos and
6:44doing okay with it, the deck is [ __ ]
6:46dog [ __ ] right now. And, you know, I'm
6:47Listen, I'm telling you all you fusion
6:48[ __ ] out there. I could tell you
6:50it's good. It's not. Okay? If you want
6:52to play this for fun, you'll do okay. If
6:54you want to take Mermail for you're
6:55lucky I'm even putting Branded at rogue
6:57actually but I will respect Branded at
7:00where it could be. I'm putting branded
7:01at rogue not at tier four farf but I'll
7:04put it at rogue. Azamina white forest
7:07is also rogue. Like it could do okay at
7:10the end of the day but I mean it's also
7:12here but let me tell you immediately
7:14though. Msuruki is tier fara. Delete all
7:16your decks immediately. Lunalite is not
7:18rogue. There's too many kaiju style
7:20cards in every single deck you could
7:21possibly think of. And with the release
7:23of Gallant, which gets slightly better
7:25postb
7:27Ludite is just insta dead, insta
7:29unplayable. Someone's going to gallant
7:31you for all your ligers and you're going
7:32to sit there looking crazy. I would just
7:35adi uh advised to just outright not play
7:39Lunalay. I guess you could say in like
7:41like obviously you know the thing with
7:43these breakers is breakers become
7:45slightly better if 20 uh 20 negates get
7:48banned randomly in a in a ban list,
7:50right? But
7:54like I guess if you want to put this
7:56rogue we could discuss. Okay. Maybe we
7:58could have a discussion maybe. But like
8:01I'm taking yummy I'm taking yummy t
8:04yummy tri brigade before I take Luna.
8:06It's like I just can't do it.
8:10Yo Digub. WHY DON'T I SEE DIGUB? WHERE'S
8:13YUMMY?
8:14I'M JUST KIDDING GUYS. Yummy is
8:16absolutely tier Va right now.
8:17Unfortunately Sky Striker. This is a
8:19deck that's seeing a lot of addition to
8:22these tier lists. Let me be abundantly
8:25clear right now. Strikers is absolutely
8:27unquestionably unplayable. Period.
8:31Absolutely unplayable. It's not even
8:33like a question. Engage could have been
8:35a five and it's still unplayable.
8:37Striker will always have its shooters.
8:39This is uh a common thing. But you let
8:42me know a singular striker player that
8:43has even a remote chance against my elf
8:46no board postb list. So, if you guys saw
8:48my last video about how to play with elf
8:49note, you guys let me know. Like, you
8:52guys let me know if Sky Striker could
8:54still deal with 10 interruptions.
8:56Nothing changes with elf. It's just the
8:58only thing that happens with the ban
8:59list is Elnot's half boards when you're
9:01just playing with Regina Turbo uh become
9:03significantly worse because there's no
9:05Tina for Regina.
9:08Striker is not stopping you. any of
9:10these board breaker decks that don't
9:11actually stop the full board is getting
9:13super omega destroyed by every single
9:16medius variant in Yu-Gi-Oh. The only
9:19thing that the balance did crystal wing
9:20and dragster might as well it was
9:22irrelevant. It was nothing. I'm telling
9:24you that all it did is made elf note
9:26players rely on trip gaming more not to
9:28do their combo but other than that it's
9:30still ending on the name set name same
9:32net amount of interruptions and negates
9:35but sky strikers are not stopping that.
9:37What the ban list did is made Regina
9:39much worse because it can't ta. Regina
9:41is still a good double interrupt hand
9:43trap, but it's not Tina. So that's all
9:45it did. But if you're playing a deck
9:46with mini hand traps like Mitsurugi or
9:48Striker, you know, relying on breakers,
9:51you're going to have an incredibly bad
9:52time against Elfno or any variant of Ars
9:55Magnamedius making this rogue. You can
9:58still take strikers because you know
9:59what? I also understand when it comes to
10:01Yu-Gi-Oh, there's a lot of people that
10:03want to take a deck that they enjoy
10:04because of how it looks or because they
10:07want to go to Striker cards. If that's
10:09their prerogative, who am I to judge?
10:11But if that's what they want to do,
10:13sure. But if they want to take Sky
10:15Strikers to a format or a tournament and
10:18do well with it because they like how
10:20strik they think Striker's good, they're
10:21going to have an incredibly rough time.
10:24Respectfully, it's [ __ ] dog [ __ ] in
10:27this format.
10:29Uh, I know strikers have intruders, so
10:31there's going to be some total bozo
10:33whose hard drive needs to be checked
10:34immediately. Going to be in my comments
10:36saying some stupid stuff like, "No, bro.
10:38Actually, I beat full combo deck on y
10:42Omega and I defeated him with striker,
10:45so that means THAT AND I ONCE ALSO got
10:4919th place at my locals. So striker must
10:53be best deck." Don't listen to them,
10:55guys. What I'm telling you is what's
10:56going to happen when you're dueling me
10:58on the other side and I'm playing some
11:00actual meta deck that's going to see on
11:01best deck or tier one and you're going
11:03to have an incredibly rough time. In
11:05fact, a lot of these decks could also
11:07destroy hyper destroy sky striker when
11:10those decks go first. So, it's striker's
11:12power is breaking half board like mid
11:16range boards such as cool tune or cool
11:19tune with just the ultimate mid-range
11:20deck of all time or yummy. Sure, if you
11:23want circuit to have a good match up on
11:24those, sure. But you're not playing no
11:25mid-range decks this man. Branded Draco
11:28Tale Tier Rogue. I want to put these a a
11:31few of these I want to put on tier
11:32farfa. But again, at least these have
11:34some potential that could be like
11:36salvageable.
11:39K9
11:41[ __ ] like this could at the end of the
11:42day these can you know what like all of
11:44these rogue decks are they could still
11:47do some damage
11:49at the end of the day. Exoisters Farfa
11:51Magnet Warrior is also Hey, wait. Darus,
11:58do they care about Darus? Let me think
11:59about this.
12:03No, I'll put I'll put this at Rogue.
12:06None of these are tier two. I'm telling
12:07you right now. To me, what tier two
12:09means is it's almost tier 1.5. Like like
12:12it's in some capacity. You like I know
12:15tier 1.5 doesn't exist. Like any of
12:18these decks you're looking at, if you
12:19take them and let's say you play
12:21perfectly and don't make a mistake, you
12:23can have some form of like
12:26you can have some potential to win like
12:30like okay, you know what? Tier 1.5 is a
12:32madeup name. Like it's not real. This is
12:35a rogue. Okay. like like these rogue
12:38decks at least have some like nice
12:41potential to them that hey may maybe
12:44like there could be something there
12:45really like tier one you know there's a
12:49whole level above and then the tier 2
12:50decks like we'll see what we put up here
12:52trains is for sure copium doomz have
12:55some potential at the end of the day
12:57they do because people are not
13:00remembering you know when I say dooms I
13:02really mean arch magna dooms and any
13:04deck with arch magna in their deck
13:06there's some form of potential there. If
13:08you throw in Ars Magna in any of these
13:10rogue decks you're looking at, they're
13:12probably going to do a little bit better
13:14than Pure Version because of the ability
13:16of Ars Magna cards that are still barely
13:19even remotely touched in the sense that
13:21they're barely even remotely like like
13:26what's the word I'm looking for? They're
13:28barely even remotely create like the
13:30creativity of what you could do with
13:31Arch Magnet cards. No one's even going
13:33number uh zombie vampire with them yet.
13:36what you can do with these cards. It's
13:37one card for four. It also gives you an
13:40instant no matter what OTK at all times.
13:42And the fact that Doom Z could outright
13:44search them. When I say Doom Z, I really
13:46mean Ars Magna Doom Z. It is absolutely
13:49respectable. This is not here. I'm
13:51seeing people put this here. There some
13:54of these rogue decks if you want to put
13:55in tier 2. I also don't totally hate it.
13:58I understand this rogue idea here that
14:00I'm putting on these rogue decks are if
14:03you take one of these decks here like
14:05there's some nice factors of if you take
14:07one of some of these decks here they
14:09could absolutely win if you let's say
14:11you play perfect
14:13they could win a regional absolutely
14:15absolutely if if a good if I take one of
14:17these decks and play perfectly I can do
14:20damage which with any of them it's just
14:23there's a significant level difference
14:25of these and the ones I'm going to
14:26mention
14:28Now I'm going to talk about cool tune.
14:31Now at first thought the average human
14:34will look at cool tune and immediately
14:36put it at tier farfa and I totally
14:38understand. I totally understand.
14:42But if we're putting these decks here
14:45and you think cool is not on the level
14:47with any of these cards,
14:49I don't want to say delusional because
14:51that just means that you don't really
14:52know kind of you're just not aware of
14:54what Culton can do.
14:56But Cool Tune is absolutely on the same
14:58level as all of these decks.
15:00Unquestionably, they're on the same
15:01tier. Which is why when you guys mention
15:04K9VS or something or like Luna Light or
15:07Sky Striker,
15:09I look at you funny if you tell me Sky
15:11Striker is a tier one deck because Sky
15:13Striker could win the role or lose the
15:14role to absolutely any top deck and
15:17still insta lose. Has a great match up
15:19to Angelie. You could get rid of the
15:20level 10 in the middle, but other than
15:22that, to me, it insta loes on the spot.
15:26And now if I tell you cool tune is is a
15:28decent like it has some potential,
15:30you're going to look at me like I'm
15:31crazy. Who's crazier? The person in
15:34their mom's basement that hasn't
15:36showered in 4 days or their person in
15:40their mom's basement who hasn't showered
15:41in 4 days who has won three YCS's.
15:44You know what I'm saying? Like maybe I
15:46trust that guy, the one who won three
15:48YCS's. I'm not telling you cool tune is
15:50the best deck, but if you play cool tune
15:53with 22 hand traps, I have a cool tune
15:55build with 22 hand traps with E4 with
15:57synchro emergency with clip. I'm playing
15:59on your turn more than you are playing
16:01on my turn and your turn. I have like we
16:04are down bad with clip with cool tune
16:06right now. You got to play clip [ __ ]
16:08I'm playing hoppier squadron. Like I'm
16:10down tremendous. If you guys want to see
16:11my updated cool tune deck, you guys let
16:13me know. There's there's a world where
16:14it's tier two. I'm not even kidding. I'm
16:16not even kidding. There's a what's
16:18difficult in Yu-Gi-Oh is going second.
16:20My cool tune deck is almost made to go
16:22second, but you know the go first is
16:24kind of dog [ __ ] But my version at
16:27least is cool. So now we're looking at
16:29Fallen Ritual of Light and Darkness.
16:30This is immediately tier Farfa because
16:32if you're playing Fallen the Virtuous in
16:34your Ritual of Light and Darkness deck,
16:35I'm just going to go ahead and say this
16:36is branded. I'll put the branded version
16:38of this deck at rogue, but it's [ __ ]
16:40dog [ __ ] It's absolutely ass. If you're
16:42playing this deck without without Albon,
16:44I don't know what to just just No.
16:46Honestly, no. Just don't just just let
16:48it go. You cannot you. No.
16:53Lol. Lol. Actually, actually lol. If you
16:57want to put it here, okay,
17:00but it's absolute lol. Azamina ritual
17:03and darkness. Nice Sylvia. No, this is
17:06super lol.
17:09Man, at some point do we respect some of
17:11these rogue decks and put them a little
17:13higher at some point? I'm gonna put
17:15Angeli Elfnode at tier two. I think
17:18Angeli Elno is better than these. You
17:19guys want want to know why? I don't want
17:22you guys to be adding for if let's say
17:23you're playing Angeli Elnote.
17:26You're not adding a bunch of [ __ ]
17:28nonsense. Like you're not playing
17:30opposition and all this [ __ ] in my
17:33eyes. The way Angeli should be played
17:34and let me know if you guys want to see
17:35it down below. Maybe even let me know if
17:37you guys want to see in my master in the
17:38master classes because if you guys look
17:40at this, I made a master class on
17:41angeli. I made a master class on
17:43elfnote, right? Which you should get
17:46down below by the way.
17:49Anywh who angeli elf note in my eyes is
17:54you play three e4,
17:57you play three synchro emergency, you
17:59play three regina. You're just playing
18:01pure elf note with the massive emphasis
18:04on going second turn zero cards. There's
18:07a world this becomes the new way
18:08actually elf note is played.
18:11So absolutely Angeli note needs some
18:13respect right now because with us down
18:15bad not even down bad but with the half
18:17boards down bad of noia you got to give
18:20somewhere when it comes to playing on
18:22turn zero. So, the way I would do this,
18:25and you know, you see Synchron, and
18:26Elnoe here, and I'm going to go ahead
18:27and put both of these here because they
18:28need the respect it deserves.
18:31Why not? Why? Let's combine them.
18:35Why? Why don't we combine them? You play
18:38three E4s, you play three emergencies,
18:40you play three Reginas, you play three
18:41fuas. Those are 12 next level turn zero
18:44hand traps. You mix in some actual hand
18:47traps like ashes and ogres,
18:50that's 18 hand traps that are incredibly
18:53incredibly powerful and not useless.
18:57Now you got a deck. Now you got a real
19:00deck. So there's a real world here where
19:03I would actually combine these two
19:04together. And you guys want to see a
19:06variation of this in my master classes,
19:07you guys let me know. Dark Magician
19:10Rolad.
19:14Let me think long and hard here.
19:18Roll pure pure variations of rolad.
19:24You got kind of got to give it
19:25somewhere. So what does it actually
19:27lose? I don't think the deck needed
19:28dragoon at all. By the way, it lost all
19:32of its link prowess.
19:35It'll just search Dola on turn zero. Now
19:39it can if necessary witch of the black
19:42forest search griefo use griefo on the
19:45opponent's turn to have mind shuffle in
19:46rotation. It's not incredible but it's
19:48not useless
19:50if we're talking about some variation
19:54of ritual of light and darkness
19:57of some deck. I mean I don't I don't see
20:00a world where it's not this one. The
20:02pile variation of roll out is insta dead
20:05permanently. Any
20:08Dark Magician card is a pseudo starter
20:11for Rolette. All Rolette wants is to
20:13play the grind game with you. If Rolled
20:15can get to turn three, four, five, six,
20:17seven, it gets so much [ __ ] plus off
20:20of the trap card that you almost cannot
20:23come back. It's like branded in that
20:24sense.
20:26So any dark magician card as a worst
20:28case scenario summoning especially in
20:31witch of the black forest if worst case
20:33I'm saying in these simplified game
20:34states the witch of the black forest at
20:37the end of the day could just search
20:38griefo you don't use it on your turn you
20:41use griefo on their turn and now you get
20:43the mind shuffle and rotation is that
20:45slow yes but it still uses it pretty
20:48well the deck is down bad in terms of
20:50starters I'm seeing people coping on all
20:52starters they could play of this deck
20:55If you ask me which variation of Rolad
20:58is playable right now, I would say this
21:00is the highest one because despite no
21:02souls, which absolutely by the
21:04absolutely tremendously hurts,
21:07you're just playing curtain turbo.
21:10You are playing curtain turbo. I will
21:12not be surprised if this becomes the
21:14number one variation of this moving
21:15forward. You don't even need to play the
21:17You don't need to play the dragoon. I'm
21:19abs I'm telling you, you don't need to
21:21play the dragoon. The dragoon hurts. It
21:23would have been much better if they got
21:24rid of gaze of Tomias maybe, but these
21:26decks, you know, just so pure dark
21:28magician could do something. But these
21:29decks got to be respected.
21:32Synchron
21:34has potential, but it's not far. I'm
21:36putting a tier rogue. Now, none of my
21:38tier rogues are in order here at all. If
21:41I did, we're putting I don't care. Put
21:43respect on my cool tune. I don't give a
21:44[ __ ] I'm telling you, it's better than
21:45you guys think. Maybe strikers here, you
21:47know, but it's not in order. But
21:49Synchron can do some damage for sure.
21:52Rise Automat despite capability of doing
21:55some damage. We haven't seen [ __ ] I
21:57almost want to put this at your Farfa.
21:59I'm going to have to think about that.
22:01Synchron guys, let's discuss this a bit.
22:03Synchron is it does a lot of damage. The
22:05capability of playing emergency is like
22:07a next level hand trap, but at that
22:08point I think I'd prefer to just play a
22:11full elf. No engine.
22:14Like the way I'm viewing it is this.
22:16Emergency and E4 both say that you
22:19you're stuck with synchros, right? Like
22:21if you're playing in like if you're
22:23playing Synchros, if you're playing
22:25Synchrons, too much [ __ ] says Synchro
22:28Lock. If you're playing uh Angelichi,
22:30same thing. If you're playing alpha, I
22:32guess same thing. To me, they go hand in
22:34hand. I would prefer at that point
22:36rather than playing Pure Synchron, which
22:38I think is just too flimsy. I would
22:40rather you play Angelry Synchron elf
22:44note. Capitalize on the best that
22:45synchrons have to offer of emergency.
22:48Still try to fit in speeder somehow,
22:50which I'm sure you could do the best you
22:53possibly could with Angeli. You see, the
22:55best e angeli has to offer is E4. The
22:57best Synchron has to offer is emergency.
22:59The best that Elfma has to offer is
23:00Regina. You're playing a deck with nine
23:02next level turn zero hand traps. And
23:04that is the way that Yu-Gi-Oh is kind of
23:06trending towards. So, at that point, I
23:08would consider Synchron a rogue
23:10strategy, almost far strategy. And I
23:12would much prefer that it's that you
23:14just add these here. What tier rogue
23:16implies to me is that the deck has
23:18potential. There's something if some
23:20absolute crazy mad scientist where will
23:23we find one of those
23:25that decides to spend some time like a
23:27few days to master one of these tier
23:28rogue strategies here. There's serious
23:30potential. Now I understand train has
23:33its shooters and these decks and I hope
23:34Exo sister doesn't. Even Labyrinth,
23:37okay, shout out to Kai who's the
23:39Labyrinth goat. But if I know all these
23:42decks have their shooters, but to me
23:44there's no like unless something else
23:47gets announced nicely to me there's no
23:49like cool fact like there's nothing to
23:51me that shows potential in them.
23:53Respectfully if you're playing the
23:55Azamina version of this I don't even
23:56know what to tell you. I don't you can
23:58just put in fact like at least these
24:01have some defining factors that
24:02something could be like hey maybe it's a
24:04it's a insta win turn one maybe there's
24:07some capability of it going good going
24:09second like cool tune or striker have
24:11real potential going second cool could
24:13just play 24 hand traps and they could
24:14play E4 and emergency and like clip
24:17becomes crazy in it and you know like uh
24:20hoppier becomes crazy because you're
24:22putting bodies in your field which they
24:24which now you're clipping hopp like
24:25you're playing on your opponent's turn
24:26so much these have ser like I I'm like
24:29that's the way I'm building this and
24:30viewing this. It's a real Yu-Gi-Oh
24:32players. The days of, you know, whatever
24:34does the best deck, what combo on
24:36dueling book solo mode, those days are
24:37over. This is what actually gives you
24:39the best chance of winning. Dark time
24:40wizard has potential. I don't care. Now,
24:43with the ban of habibi, I almost want to
24:45put this at tier farfa.
24:47And you know what? Now that we've had
24:49some time of seeing how dark time wizard
24:51can go, I will put this at tier farfa.
24:54But I want to emphasize that there is
24:56some potential of Dark Time Wizard
24:58because if you read the cards, they
25:00actually read kind of broken. If you
25:01just sit down and actually read the
25:03cards, they're actually rather good. But
25:07now that we've had a whole YCS and Sam
25:10almost did well with them. Uh, and hey,
25:13someone got top 32 with them. Actually,
25:15uh, Shafuan, he did really, really good
25:17with them. Actually, he got top 32,
25:18which is crazy with Dark Time Wizard.
25:21Um, to me though, I just don't see this
25:25as a solid uh version, like a solid
25:27deck. I don't I don't I want to, you
25:29know what? [ __ ] it's close. Like t I
25:31almost want to put tier potential
25:34almost, but it is rogue. The real
25:36definition for Yu-Gi-Oh is that it's
25:38rogue.
25:39I want to put it there, but logic is
25:42telling me that it that it's it's in
25:44tier farfa.
25:45I'm going to do the same with risat. Why
25:48is the owner Matt also to me there shows
25:50some potential
25:53[ __ ] we draw that one and probably way
25:55less play we could we could probably put
25:57that there
26:00like it has at the end of the day it
26:02does a bunch going first but I'm pretty
26:04sure any generic Elno hand breaks it
26:09now that some time has passed we could
26:11have more of a tier four I'll put this
26:13[ __ ] there's potential we'll talk Umbra
26:15horror hear me out I tried I actually
26:17tried. I theoried a lot with it. Until
26:19the new support comes out, I'm putting
26:20it here. One day, it could have
26:22potential. I'm going to do the same with
26:23Atlantis. Time has passed enough for
26:26these new decks to have some bit of like
26:29like let people cook with it to see if
26:32there's something and enough time has
26:33passed in my eyes that I'm I'm able to
26:35put them on tier five. Rising ornament
26:37at the end of the day could put up 10
26:38negates going first. That shows me some
26:41rogue potential where if someone plays
26:43it perfectly, they could do well. If
26:44there's one of these three decks I could
26:46put at Rogue is Dark Time Wizard. If
26:48it's one of them. IF IT'S ONE OF THEM.
26:50I'LL KEEP IT THERE. I'LL KEEP IT THERE.
26:52OKAY, I'll keep it there because I know
26:53I could cook with Joey's deck. I just
26:55[ __ ] know it. I know it. The cards
26:56are actually read. You got to combine it
26:58with something though. Is it K9? Is it
27:00Is it something else? I don't know.
27:03Astra,
27:06I'm going to put it here.
27:08Yeah. Let Let me tell you something. You
27:11want to know the only people that would
27:12put it here? People with zero YCS wins.
27:14Astra is immediately tier two.
27:16It's not no potential cuz the potential
27:18is solved when I re released the Astro
27:20files. Has you got Have you guys seen
27:22the best Astra card?
27:25Astra, especially in the new support is
27:30[ __ ] With the new support, it might be
27:31tier 1.5. Astra is a deck to be reckoned
27:34with. I haven't released my files yet
27:36because I'm actually intending to take
27:38Astra to a regional. People sleep on
27:40this deck like crazy. They actually
27:42sleep on this deck like crazy. They
27:43remind me a lot of elf notes. Astra
27:45summon themselves for free like elf
27:47notes
27:48and are interruptions on the opponent's
27:50turn like elf notes.
27:54They literally remind me so much of it
27:56and they're meant to be a synchro deck.
27:58Astra is so much better than you think.
28:00If I take Astra and you watching take
28:03any of the videos on tier rogue and you
28:05duel my Astra deck and we just play 10
28:07matches, I'm probably beating you seven
28:09or eight times out of 10. Astra is to be
28:12reckoned with. You guys want to know
28:14why? Because no one knows what they do.
28:19No one knows what they do.
28:22And you could use that to your
28:23advantage. The new support for Astra is
28:25so [ __ ] broken that it will
28:26immediately be up there on the tier
28:28list, even higher. But Astra is no
28:30longer a deck with potential. It's
28:32there. I just haven't released the Astra
28:34files yet. Let me know in the comments
28:36if you want to see them. Ars Magna Art
28:38Mage. Now, it goes without saying
28:42that every Arch Magnet card needs to
28:43immediately immediately on the spot be
28:46tier one. Unquestionably, the question
28:48is where does it go on tier one and is
28:51is it the best deck
28:53in my eyes?
28:57I think Arch Magnar Mage is tier one
28:59behind Angeli here. Angeli is a great
29:02like like you know what I could even put
29:04I I think I'll put Angeli right there.
29:07like they're close but the thing is this
29:10angel even though the top players will
29:11be next level prepared for it next level
29:14hence it can never be a best best best
29:16deck because of the nature ars magna art
29:18mage still does a lot and I'd say
29:20probably at first glance you would think
29:21this gets the highest uptick and it does
29:24where I'm going to put ars magna power
29:25patron below angeli and I'm putting ars
29:28magna alfno and I'm telling you right
29:29now it's not a debate it's the best deck
29:32and I'm telling you this for one reason
29:34a lot of people look and I know some
29:35comments are going to say this without
29:36listening to me. So if you maybe some of
29:38you even I know what tier list goes. You
29:40guys fast forward to see where your deck
29:41is at. Okay, so for those players that
29:44just heard me discuss mage or pop patron
29:46or angelleti or elf note, hear me out
29:47here. Listen closely. Ars Magna Elf Note
29:51plays better into every big hand trap
29:53even right now to this day. What makes
29:55Ars Magna Elf Note so good is that it's
29:58not Ars Magnet Elnote anymore. When I
30:00say arch magnet elf note, it's takes the
30:03best of arch magnet power patron
30:06and arch magnet elf note and combines it
30:08in one deck.
30:11It takes the best arch mage cards, the
30:13best power patron cards and the best
30:15elf. In fact, if you're playing pure ars
30:17magnet note, I'll put this [ __ ] right
30:19here.
30:21Ars magnet elfnote power patron
30:25is tier one.
30:30period.
30:34It's tier one unquestionably,
30:37but the thing is that no one's going to
30:40do it and and it's not on the list. So,
30:42we're going to put ars magnet elfnote
30:43power patron tier one. If you're playing
30:45pure magnet elfnote, it's here. Not
30:48playing the power patron cards in your
30:49elf note deck is literally crazy. And
30:52when I say power patron, I don't mean
30:53vidoleium. I mean, you not playing pen
30:54treasures in Nvido is ridiculous to me
30:57because this is our spa page
31:01is is by far the best way to play it
31:03because it plays through every
31:04interaction so well and you don't want
31:07to be stuck playing Regina control
31:10anymore. That's what makes this here
31:13[ __ ] It might even make it here.
31:16When you're stuck playing Regina, Elf
31:18Note control is where you're gonna have
31:19a bad time in the new format. Elfnote
31:22got destroyed on the ban list, not Ars
31:24Magna, Power Patron, and Elf Note Medius
31:27decks. The idea that you got to start
31:29structuring your thinking is that you're
31:31basically taking the best of art mage,
31:35nonfenito, and Nvido. You're taking the
31:37best of power patron, all the power
31:40patron cards. You're taking the best of
31:42elfnote all the elf note cards all the
31:45medius and you're adding it in one deck
31:47which is ars magna elfnote power patron
31:51that takes capitalizes on all the best
31:53cards of each of the medius lords
31:55combining it just the ugly cousin Doomz
31:58that you're not including in here we're
32:00not you know that's all but you know
32:02every family has like an ugly cousin you
32:05know what I'm saying and that's uh in my
32:07family it's me I'm the ugly one the rest
32:09of my family is very beautiful. I'm the
32:11ugly one. But in the media's family,
32:13it's dooms.
32:14So that's the way you going want to look
32:16at it. I'm This thing right here is Ars
32:18Magna elfnote power patron. Ars Magna
32:21note is here. It just plays through
32:24things so well. And I just played a
32:26whole YCS with it. You don't How much
32:28How many times do you think I stopped
32:29Ars Magnelf note with my hand traps?
32:32Plenty. This is with with Tina.
32:37On top of that, how much do you how how
32:39do you think I know this? I play more
32:41Yu-Gi-Oh than anyone else. That's why
32:44our smile power patron is
32:46unquestionable. You put pendulum
32:47treasure in your deck
32:49for one locals and you'll know
32:51immediately. I don't I don't need to
32:53tell you this. Just do it. You tell me
32:56which starter you prefer.
32:59You tell me. Do you prefer Medius or do
33:02you prefer pen treasure? You tell me.
33:04put it in your deck
33:06and ask yourself throughout the
33:08tournament, [ __ ] which one do I love
33:10seeing more? And if if you remotely just
33:13think for yourself, you'll have the
33:14exact same answer that I have. That is
33:16absolutely broken. RS Magnum Malice.
33:20Look, just let it go, guys. These decks
33:22have been around forever.
33:25Okay, shout out Rico for keeping the
33:27deck alive. But these decks at the end
33:29of the day if if you know what do what
33:32deck do I fear more between these
33:33probably Malice
33:36but just let it go. These decks have
33:38been around for so long and they have
33:40not been touched on the list for a
33:41reason.
33:44I'm inclined to put Ars Magnum Malice at
33:46tier two.
33:48Does want to know why? Because of the
33:50first line, not the second line. But at
33:52the end of the day, Ars Magnum Malice is
33:53still, you know, it's a combo deck you
33:55don't want to go first for
33:58I probably put it there. But some we'll
34:02see as the list continues. Maybe I'll
34:03lower it. Destiny Hero is is not [ __ ]
34:06It's rogue. It's not [ __ ] It's not tier
34:08far, but it's definitely not up there.
34:11It has potential. This I want to see
34:14more. It's not here, but I want to see
34:16more. Emancipator. I need to see
34:19something before I increase it. I need
34:22to see something with an emancipator
34:23otherwise it's tier Farfa. But the new
34:25cards are definitely very good. Invoked.
34:27This is a deck that people are
34:28overrating like crazy. Tier two, maybe
34:32tier rogue. Like I understand, guys,
34:35it's a newer deck that hasn't been hit.
34:37But if I'm dueling against some, let's
34:39say, you know, let's say I sit down at a
34:42YCS, I'm shuffling my deck before my
34:45round. My opponent sits down. Would you
34:48rather duel against an invoked player or
34:51arch magnamelis player? I'd rather duel
34:53against invoked
34:56[ __ ] I don't think it's close. I think
34:58this deck is incredibly overrated.
35:00Actually, it's a new deck that's
35:01incredibly fair.
35:04Hence, it's a fair is another word for
35:06ass.
35:08We could put it here, but Ars Magnamelis
35:11Invoked and Astra are pretty close to
35:13going to your rogue. Please do not
35:14underestimate Astra, by the I'm telling
35:16you, if I play Astra, you'll be
35:17surprised at this power. Blitz Click
35:19stick to Genesis Fairy Tale and Demian
35:22is easily up here. [ __ ] maybe right
35:24here. Fairy Tale and Demian is as close
35:27to tier one as any of these decks. This
35:28is arguably one of the decks that uh got
35:31the biggest boost in the list because it
35:33does so much crazy combo stuff and the
35:35negates are within the engine, which
35:36means it wasn't reliant on all the cards
35:38that got banned. It's literally its own
35:40engine is the negates, which is an
35:42amazing thing. Clown Crew has potential
35:46for sure because it draws six and you
35:48know has good cards, but I'm gonna put
35:50in Rogue because he could do some
35:51damage. I don't expect Clown Crew to go
35:53around or Blitz in advance format. I
35:56don't expect these decks to go around.
35:57In fact, I could very much even put
35:58these here too, but with a massive
36:01emphasis that you know these first five
36:04of the rogue could very much very much
36:06be tier two. I just think these like
36:08Invoked is seeing too much like it's
36:11showing too much on people's uh tier
36:14lists for no reason other than it being
36:15a newer deck. It it's [ __ ] ass cheeks
36:18to me.
36:20Now, I am content
36:24I am content with this exact tier list
36:26you're looking at for this exact format.
36:29You can pause the video right here if
36:31you're trying to figure out the exact
36:33how it looks like for this format. I'm
36:35going to do a quick one now on the new
36:37decks, but the new decks I'm mentioning
36:39right now, my training, I made a
36:41decision to sacrifice my duelist cup.
36:45With all this Yu-Gi-Oh coming so fast
36:47back to back to back to back, I just
36:49went through multiple sleepless weeks to
36:51master medius before the decks came out.
36:54In order to do that, I had to sacrifice
36:56YCS Ecuador and YCS Paris. So, I had to
36:59sacrifice two YCS's to put in hundreds
37:02and hundreds of hours to master medias.
37:05Everything to do with the last format
37:07for Medias. I sacrificed two YCS's for
37:09that. What came as a result? 500 people
37:13that got the media master class mastered
37:14this deck to the next level. People that
37:16take intake my YouTube information for
37:18free mastered it. I hope it helped. I
37:21hope. And what else? I got top four out
37:24of 1,150 players at the Houston YCS.
37:29Great. It worked out, but job's not
37:31done. I'm still going to win Orlando
37:32through that sacrifice. Now, when it
37:34comes to magnificent maestros, well,
37:36after after my medias, I have to master
37:39angelry. So, I sacrificed multiple I
37:42sacrificed my health actually for that
37:44whole month. I didn't sleep. It's not
37:46good, but I did it. Now, it's done. You
37:48know, that was good sacrifices.
37:51Now, we got this super mega ban list.
37:54Then I have D there's duelist cup in a
37:56few days.
37:58Then there's YCS Orlando in a two two
38:01weeks.
38:03Then it would tunes and all the
38:06magnificent maestros gets released the
38:08the upcoming few days after that. So
38:11something needs to get sacrificed for me
38:14to master tunes and this whole format,
38:16this whole set to the high level because
38:18you guys see these cards. All of these
38:20decks get massive power boosts for
38:22magnificent maestros. All of them. So,
38:25I've decided to sacrifice my duelist cup
38:29to master this for you guys. I hope you
38:30guys appreciate it. But this is my way
38:33too early
38:34uh opinion on the decks you're going to
38:36see down below. Come back in a few weeks
38:39for a better update on where these decks
38:41rank when I've actually mastered it over
38:43the next two weeks. What you're looking
38:46at here, I am comfortable to to to lock
38:48in. If you want to put these over here,
38:52we can have that discussion.
38:55But the decks that are rogue, I'm
38:57keeping. The decks that are tier four,
38:58I'm keeping. Okay, this is my very
39:02confident, happy discussion. And my
39:05exact definition of rogue is if you take
39:08one of these decks in rogue,
39:11take it to a tournament,
39:14play perfect, you could win a
39:16tournament. But you but the other decks
39:18are just better. And my Astra version,
39:22this is not pure Astra. So maybe it's
39:24cheating. So if it was just pure Astra,
39:26I'm putting at Rogue for sure.
39:29But my version of Astra,
39:32I don't want to tell you.
39:36Let me look. Okay, I'm a Synchro
39:38Truther.
39:39I'll tell I'll just give you a quick
39:40hint before I go to the next one. It's
39:42Astra, Elf Note, Angelry Synron.
39:48It's just these decks, they go hand in
39:50hand together. They're the same deck.
39:52They do the same idea, but the Astra
39:54cards are so high quality when mixed
39:56with any tuner that is just utterly
39:59broken to insert with these. Also, all
40:02of these are trap cards. So, Astra can
40:04add back synchro emergency. Astra can
40:07add back E4. It's just broken. It's just
40:11literally meant to go hand in hand with
40:13all of them. SO, THE EXTRA FILES WILL
40:16GET RELEASED SOON, BABY. BUT ANYH WHO,
40:18let's go to the Magnificent Maestros.
40:20The Blue Eyes support is legit. I'm
40:23putting it at Tia Rogue. I will not be
40:25surprised if it gets here one day. I
40:27have been debating creating a a master
40:30class for Blue Eyes. I've been debating
40:32because the these cards are so high
40:35quality. Literally, I'm putting all of
40:36these at Rogue and not Farfa. You guys
40:39want to know why
40:42the card quality of new support of this
40:45whole line, even speedoids, even Phantom
40:48Knights, even Rockets, this whole line
40:50right here, witch crafters, unchained.
40:54This whole third line that you're
40:56looking at, I told you guys that tier
40:58rogue means potential.
41:01Atlantis, Umbrell, Emancipators, I I put
41:04these at tier at tier far last time.
41:08Sorry, I put them at tier rogue last
41:09time because I said you got to respect
41:11these new decks. They have actual
41:12damage. But now that enough time has
41:14passed, I haven't done seen anything
41:16from these decks at at a regional level.
41:18Even this last line, you will be
41:21incredibly surprised
41:24at what each of these cards can do. They
41:27got custom level cards of support in the
41:30upcoming Magnificent Maestro set. I do
41:33believe heavily that the reason why they
41:35hurt tunes so badly as they did is
41:37because they know that these cards right
41:40here, they want more people to play the
41:42third row here. Do not sleep on this
41:45entire third row of tier rogue because
41:48there's something to all of them. And
41:50don't worry, as time progresses after
41:53YCS Orlando, I will do videos on every
41:57single one of them because the support,
41:59if you read the support, they're
42:01actually custom cards. Speedoid, for
42:04example, is getting this next level
42:05Synchro 7 card that with Synchro
42:08Emergency could be made easily. And then
42:10that one synchroso into something else.
42:12Like, it's just neverending of what you
42:15could do with Speedroids. And if you
42:16read the speedoid cards and for my
42:18flight, I took a picture of every single
42:20speedoid card so I could study it for
42:22the flight. There's something to every
42:24single one of Photon especially. Crimson
42:27King gets a lot. Cyber Dragon gets a
42:29next level retrain of future fusion.
42:31Like leg all of this whole row needs to
42:34be respected in the upcoming format. And
42:36I think that's why they did it. Now up
42:39to tune. It's the last one here. Tune is
42:44this is the big question that a lot of
42:46you have probably been waiting for.
42:47Where does tune rank up with these
42:49decks? I'm going to comfortably for now
42:53for now just for now I think ton will be
42:57the best of these.
43:00I think there's a world where the best
43:01deck will be between elf none and turn.
43:05I do. I still need to test it more
43:08because all these new decks that I put
43:10up I I put these into your rogue. Why?
43:12because I said it as row is potential to
43:14be higher. Unchained probably as the
43:16highest of them. I'm not putting these
43:18in order because I haven't duled hundred
43:20times with them. I only give educated
43:23answers through backed with real
43:25testing, not just words, which is a
43:28difference between me and a lot of
43:29content creators. By the way, this is
43:30backed up by actual tangible information
43:33in my mind of how I've seen through
43:35theory and videos and duels and testing
43:37myself.
43:39Tune at the end of the day lost four
43:42very high quality starters. The deck had
43:4520. It now has 16. But the thing is the
43:48deck could still play rise tune. It
43:50could play tribgate tune. It's not like
43:52these cards are just it's not like it
43:55loses all of its starters from the face
43:57of the earth. It could still be
43:59incredibly consistent if necessary. I do
44:03believe at first glance this will be
44:05interchangeable with Elfnote as the best
44:08deck of the format. I think so. And I
44:11could see a world where these two are
44:13the finite number one. Angelichi becomes
44:16even higher when tune gets released
44:18because I pretty sure Angeli is a good
44:20matchup to tune but I have to confirm
44:22through guess how multiple testing. So
44:25over time I could see a world where elf
44:27node and tune become the best decks. and
44:29Gelati becomes a number one counter to
44:31them are like these are just up here and
44:34like these are just the five decks but I
44:36think there's a level there's a slight
44:38tier difference between these slight
44:40tier difference with these I think as
44:42time goes down you guys see the tier
44:44rogue area I think out of these tier
44:46rogue out of these the third row we're
44:48looking at here I think two or three of
44:50these cards bumped to tier two I think
44:52they're going to be that good the rest
44:54goes to tier unplayable I think maybe
44:56one of these tier rogue decks some
44:58potential rises from one of these tier
45:00rogue decks jumps a tier two and I think
45:03that's how the format will shape as far
45:05as the maestro cards. We'll see when the
45:07for format comes out. Hope you guys
45:09enjoy this whole super in-depth tier
45:11list, you know, from a three-time ICS
45:14champ and a twotime top four
45:16semiinalist.
45:19Job not done in Orlando. Get your media
45:22master class right now. get the angelry
45:24class as well.
