In this Episode:
A light, pre-bosh podcast where we talk about what yugioh efforts we’ve been making over the past month. Kyle’s been experimenting with his pendulum build, Matt with his Dinomists and Blue-Eyes, and Justen with his Kaijus.
We also discuss the games current state, and some highlights and anticipations from the upcoming release of Breakers of Shadows.

heylo guys! so many times in the past 6 months i was like ya know, imma comment on ycg, but so much stuff just kept coming out and things just keeping breaking further and further. first it was clowns, norden, then magicians, majespecters, monarchs, bosh, kozmos, blu ii, draco’s, amorphage, and now felgrand stuffz,
soon you’ll even be able to pendulum an amorphage nortes, majespecter unicorn and apex avian with performapal odd ii unicorn, for the ultimate you can’t play first turn kyle! monarchs still desperately need a way to search out a tribute tho (at least the super quantums help) or a way to protect their dominion set up from twin twister.
matt the blu ii stuff is incredibly fun and even pretty competitive now that you can splash felgrand support and arkbrave. with where arf thou, it’s easy to set up the blu ii synchro first turn, semi blocking pendulums for your opponent and letting you go into a protected azure ii should they try to destroy it or just during their end phase so that you can sp summon a blu ii next standby and go for the next blu ii spirit.
justen, um yeah (sorry ghostricks, you’re not even under the rug anymore), you should try using the magician or ppal engine with melodious or amorphage.
i think cyber dragon infinity is a bit over rated, it costs a lot of resources to bring out, it’s easy to bait out, clogs up the extra and it lets maxx c go to town. naturia beast is far more important for turn 1. if they give us outer entity azathoth before they ban ptole, it’ll be the better turn 1 play. really naturia beast is just insane this format, in general. i predict all the ycs/arg tops this format will be running it and/or are running answers for it like eccentrick and ghost ogre.
have you guys seen card of demise? it’s basically a super pot of greed in a deck like the old school trap heavy qliphort deck. set your hand/summon/place as scale, play card of demise, draw 3 and set more traps/scales so you don’t end up discarding.
how about raidraptors nowadays? with their new rank ups, zapdos xyz and lastrix, the deck can go into a 3500 towers(ultimate falcon), hope zexal s0 or even cyber dragon infinity with ease.
do any of you still use devpro and if so, what are your usernames?
so i’ve been listening to the podcast for a few years now and judging from some of the things i’ve heard you guys say, i think one of you guys either listens to/watches skeptic podcasts/youtube channels or has a friend who does. can you confirm or deny your illuminati involvement? why was itunes trying to silence you?
bug, flying, rock, steel, ground, fighting, poison, ghost, dragon, and normal -which type do you want to see the next eeveelution be?
anyways, thanks for the great content guys!
I’ll have to look into the felgrad stuff, I haven’t seen any of it yet. Card of demise seems hilarious. Looks like something that will become a problem eventually.
My username is Mattcarterwa.
I don’t listen to any skeptics podcasts! I’d be curious to hear what we’ve said that sounded like we did. Maybe Kyle or Justen does, idk.
Bug, definitely bug.
this is the third time im trying to reply, it kept telling me my previous replies were spam.
arkbrave is all you need to know. it jumps in and out of the grave banishing scales along the way.
i believe kyle is the one who’s said skeptic phrases but i can’t remember any off hand and i’m too lazy to listen to old episodes for specific examples. penn and teller, neil tyson degrasse and bill nye are all famous skeptics. anyways this has become much more tangent than i ever intended.
i’d like to see a steel type or a ground or hmm it’s hard to choose, people have done so many great designs. i don’t know enough about the meta to actually say which would be useful, but i heard that there’s only like 3 mono flying types in the game, so there’s that.
see that, i finally comment and already more changes! the banlist has pwned pepe. personally i only care about luster going to 1. it makes getting ignister out incredibly annoying, i wish they had only semi limited it.
everything else, i think everyone completely expected sooner or later. keyboard to 1 kills all the silly decks made possible by the 1 card scale set up but oh well, magician pends can fill the gap.
people seem to be rallying behind secondonkey as a replacement to joker because it’s easy to set up temporary-ish scales with stuff like lizardraw and master pend. for example set guiturtle then set lizardraw, summon secondonkey to fetch monekyboard, then use lizardraw effect to draw and open the scale for monekyboard to fetch sorcerer. master can replace lizardraw here and use its effect to pop itself.
i’ve been playing against a few dinoster decks lately and that deck too, could benefit from running card of demise if you ran a trap heavy version, since the pends all have sweet protective effects and you can search your monsters relatively easily. it’s worth a try if you get bored.
Sorry about that, every time I think the issue goes away, it comes back. It must be a problem with the site’s plugins or something.
Second donkey seems like a good fit. I need a lot more experience with the Pendulum mechanic though. I’ve been rummaging around the Pepe back stock and came across this card.
they jus released info on the next set and we get our dark magician retrains/new support in it. they look pretty pretty good.
I don’t even know what you mean by skeptics podcast, unless that’s actually what it’s called.
I play on YGOpro mostly just against the bot. For some reason DevPro stopped updating on my computer and I’m too lazy to fix it.
I’d say Bug too because I made one of my own of Bug-type on my DeviantArt ;), but I actually would want Fighting-type because I say a really cool concept someone made called “Brawleon” that I liked a lot.
