now, to be fair: revolution, vortex, and maybe performapal synchron are the only odd-eyes names worth remembering

@@armorparade what about monkeyboard EDIT: for some reason my mind replaced Odd-Eyes with Perfomapals, lol.

​@@davidjimenez3822they work together.

Well tbf, Lunalight is a fusion strategy, but it can be used as a great xyz spam deck so you can cut it both ways its either which cards the deck predominantly ends on, or which ones it uses to make its board

@@armorparade I mean, there is also Gravity Dragon, who goes from Tax Dragon into the best Floodgate in the game.

also ddd does have main deck pend bosses theyre just pepe bad

​@@beegyoshi1685 They come from the anime where the Boss monster trait is BIG NUMBAH!!!

Prior to the release of the Link they definitely weren't. You never pendulum summoned. You would use Xyz, Fusion, Synchro, and Link, and the deck was filled with pendulums, but you didn't use the pendulum mechanic in the sense most decks do. It was as much a pendulum deck as Masked Heroes were a fusion deck. So depends on how you define it.

​@@mophead1666but they are now and were represented in the show as such

Dommy/Demon/Daddy Deus is also a pend monster

funnily enough, while it is less efficient, a pure rikka deck can play around extra deck locks like dimensional barrier and scythe, the high level main deck monsters have high enough attack to contest a lot of monsters and have strong enough negates with princess and hellebore/tytannial plus konkon and sheet, obviously it's not as strong as the sunavalon variant, but it's decent.

this, while it is optimal to play Sunavalon Rikka, I refuse to use ugly trees with my flower spirits waifu deck.

​@@kurokagutsuchi67agreed! Rikkas do not need the silly seed to be good

​@@kurokagutsuchi67the trees are pretty what are you talking about

The question is can we play in in TCG and master duel yet? If not that would be why

@@Omega_1306 TCG yes, MD not

NOUVELLEZ goes hard when your opponent doesn't read. All they have to do is not attack, not target monsters, place things, and negate.

Archetype is so sick, has some very decent value potential and is actually surprisingly good at making chaos angel 😂

I did, but i'm not in the video xD

The other pend isn’t bad… because it’s miracle fusion.

That's a really good argument, but unfortunately Lunalight Wolf is inside your walls

Wolf is a 3 of in CC tho How else would I make Leo dancer?

There's a simple answer to this, if your deck consistently pend summons in it's combos, you're a pend deck. Lunalight does not pend summon, Plunder does not pend summon, D/D/D however does.

@@Capta1nTD ^ this. the lunalight scales can be continous spells and barely anything changes

I mean I never liked it, but they do look cool, its the matter of "do you actually play Drytron or Herald turbo?"

Clueless

Frankly I'd prefer to get Heralded or Bongo'd then Block Dragoned

Tellarknight gang pogchamp, Tellarknight gang pogchamp. normal summon Danny set 3 is the only way!

Ritual = Demise/Ruin Fusion = Lunalight XYZ = Constellar (i see you are a person of good taste) Synchro = Fabled Link = Unchained Pendulum: May try Qli

Ritual=IoC>Soul>Masterplan Fusion=Runick Synchro=Timelord Xyz=Numeron Pend=5-Rainbow Magician Link=Tri-Brigade :)

Gonna jump the bandwagon here. Ritual: Nekroz (I never played Ritual) Fusion: Ancient Gear XYZ: Traptrix Synchro: Speedroid Link: Sky Striker Triff: Qliphort

Ritual = Vendread, the coolest archetype that would be stronger with less text in the cards. Fusion = Alphabet Dragon Cannon and friends XYZ = Traptrix, 😭 [Redacted] it's just labrynth but fair which is unfortunate... Synchro = AFD Field Spell Roulette Link = Knightmare Phoenix, Knightmare Unicorn, Accesscode and a 3k Beater Pendulum = Anchamoufrite

You Mean Prior to their Structure Deck.

@@danielramsey6141 No I mean what I said. When the structure deck came out, Copernicus and Kepler were your high and low scales. The issue is, you almost never end up using them in the scales because their on field effects are much better. The other scales (Oblivion King, Thomas) are basically useless for the deck as scales, and you're usually popping them or summoning them from the scale (Oblivion King with his own effect, Meteorburst Dragon, or Thomas popping). This also means you rarely have two monsters in the scale, because they don't have the floating in the way pendulum decks do when they're popped. Basically the only time you would pendulum summon is if you were making an extremely suboptimal play, or you somehow got into some insane grind game where you have get Kepler back with Thomas Effect, which can theoretically get you a free Oblivion King... You know why that never happens? Because Oblivion King is usually in the grave because you use him for Rank 8 plays, so... Yeah. Hope I made my point. Structure Deck era D/D/D is one of my all time favorites, but no, you never pendulum summon.

Drytrons enabled the stupid Herald bosses. They weren't a problem until their cards were printed. It's 100% Drytron's fault.

@@julianchrobak-prince1915 Heralds had no futureproofing whatsoever and are a nearly Infernity-tier case study of why once-per-turn is extremely important in card design. Rituals do not deserve to be permanently useless as a mechanic purely to excuse Heralds' mistake.

Megatron is Yu-Gi-Oh crack and I'll never forgive Bystials

Drytron Cydra is a hilarious deck to run. Comboing like crazy with Drytrons, then dropping a truly colossal Eltanin followed up by Cyberload Fusion into Overdragon for Unga Bunga is great fun.

Must be hard

smartest farfa enjoyer.

Indeed, I mean, the main boss IS a pendulum monster, and works surprisingly well as a pendulum card, There's been times when it's pendulum effect actually saved me.

anime enjoyer

I think the problem is Farfa kinda misunderstood his own prompt. He was looking for your favorite decks that use x mechanic but got all tied up with the point that decks listed didn't have that mechanic as their core identity. Its just people's favourite deck that uses that mechanic, if there isnt a pure pend deck listed it's because they dont like/play those archetypes obviously.

@@david21216 it's pretty dumb to say "he misunderstood his own prompt", he was looking for decks centered around those mechanics. People submitted something different. if someone says their playing an xyz deck, it doesn't mean they're playing a deck that *can* xyz summon as part of their mechanic, it means they're 100% going to go into xyz monsters as their core strategy. It's like getting mad he said Dark Magician wasn't a fusion deck. the DDD take was wrong, bc of their combo with the link monster now, but yall were the ones with the who got the prompt wrong.

Lol, what do you think which circles Farfa hangs out at 🤣

​@@reservationatdorsias3215I miss the old Farfa

He cant overargue theatrical boys, says a lot

Thats not how it works. Bunch of those pendulums are beyond saving capabilities pack filler cards.

​@@Poske_Ygobrother the best card in the archetype sets 2 scales from deck for free

@@Poske_Ygo Actually D/D plays one of the higher variety of their archetypal cards among most other archetypes, in MD alone they play around 16-20 1 offs (including both Extra and Main deck) and IDK many other archetypes that do that, that arent super old or like Albaz or something

@@amethonys2798 Thats a link2, not a Pend. Also you only really benefit from scalling Ragnarok everything else is not that insane in terms of value. One of the things D/d/D PLAYERS want the most is a scale 1/0 on the same level of Ragnaron in terms of quallity. You can also play D/d/D without the LINK2 because D/d Lock is what dampens that deck super hard.

@PoskeYugituber If you are going to argue that Gilgamesh isn't pend support then Electrumite and Beyond the Pendulum somehow also aren't right? Like what even is this argument?

isnt it easier to say "pend deck is deck that uses its pend summon more than it doesnt" or a pend deck is deck that has more than a high and a low scale because they gave that to almost every archetype made in that certain timespan

@@nbassasin8092 that also true.

I was expecting Thundra (Day 13059, still waiting for any playable support)

@@reservationatdorsias3215 we wait together brother, we wait together

@@mgdplayz5727 Salad got their new cards, Striker got Linkage and 2 new Links, fingers crossed Thundra is next and not Orcust.

I notice a pattern here

Now I think about it, there's not a plant ritual moster right?

​@@chrisb.2028now u mentioned it, it need to get plant ritual archtype

@@chrisb.2028 you are 100% correct

I never thought of it until now but a ritual would probably be perfect. The summoning goes hand in hand with their tributing playstyle

BAAAAAAAT

Nah, galaxy eyes photon dragon equip beatdown is best

I casually slap galaxy decks 😂

@@mattialinari9310 HELL YEAH!!!! WE WILL RISE UP FROM DRAGON LINKS SHADOW!!!!😼

@@bonzey9895 Just assimilate into dragon link like everyone else eventually will. Do it. 🙂

Cool

Unchained Twins is a based strategy. you just reminded me I need to try out that deck again with the new unchained support.

Tellarknights is the objective choice

Nah, galaxy eyes photon is just a watered down version of gAlAXy EyEs PhOTon dragon beatdown.

I hate links with passion, but I cant argue, after my Synchros they do have the most bangers out of all the summoning mechanics

sorry forgot 1 argument: they have a link 2 that literally sets the pendulum scales from 0-5 for you or if you want to be ballsy go with the 0-10
