Seeing actual games in full is really really helpful for showcasing the deck. You're also doing a good job narrating. I typically listen to these videos while driving, so the fact that I can follow along without actually seeing the screen is wonderful.

Super good vid Matchie! You're slowly convincing me to play this build!!

Dude, this is probably the most innovative DM build I've seen in years. I wanna try this out so bad. You've just gained another subscriber!

Loved the commentary, I would love to put a magician souls into my shaddoll builds but it's still quite a bit. At 4:08 you can't dump winda off of granguniol. One card that I'm wanting to test in all of my shaddoll builds is enemy controller in the main deck. It can help protect winda like crazy, it helps dodge negates and can steal problematic monsters. Overall great vid!

you can make this experience better, by posting more of these! I love watching actual games of yugioh to learn from! :)

4:50 At that point he could have not gone for Chimera since it needs at least 1 monster from Field. Also Bystial Dis Pater cannot negate the effect of The Dark Magicians (To summon DM and DMG) if it activates during the Damage Step (If it was destroyed in Battle) Since it negates effect and not activation. Great video.

I don't like Dark Magician but this content is what I live for I just love seeing somebody play their favorite deck to the best of their ability and the best way possible

Wow! This is such an amazing build. Currently trying out the Dogmatika engine with the Dark Magician, but this was such a great video! So amazing!

I love this series as well as your way of explaining your plays. Sending you the best vibes on this Dark Magician adventure!

This was awesome! My only suggestion would be timestamps and your decklist/any side decking you did. It looks like some cards you were running were different from the original deck profile so it'd be useful to know if they were sidedecked in or not and what cards they replaced

Absolute CHAD

Always really cool to see people really dedicated to their favorite decks that want to keep innovating on them, finding new lines and combos, etc. Just some thoughts on the series as a whole since I watched the various videos you have back-to-back after algorithm pushed this to me: Definitely interesting ideas and directions to take with the deck (talking about both this build you've used for the past few videos as well as the one in the original video). I assume some people would take issue with how tight the DM package has become in this build either due to their playstyle preference or semantics on how it's "supposed" to be played but it looks like it's working for you (and sounds like the correct direction for what you're trying to do here) and your commentary on these videos throughout shows that you've definitely put a lot of thought into the theory behind this and it's very fun to see. Couple things on the content itself since you asked, like others have mentioned I think seeing full Bo3 matches and discussing your siding patterns would definitely be a good addition. Aside from that, could be nice to have an LP counter or something off to the side? Not always necessary but could be nice to keep track for viewers if in a grindier or more back-and-forth game. Overall great stuff, looking forward to seeing more videos and your future ideas, and rooting for you to do well - the way you discuss everything definitely makes me think you have the right mindset for going about this!

amazing performance, love to see the deck in action. good stuff man! that dlink player is an actual beast. the dharc to counter village into breaking double goon is actually crazy

A bit late to comment but, once again i can't tell you how much i'm happy to see someone make that kind of Dark Magician quality content ! Keep it up Matchie! i'm really looking forward to see you top at your YCS!

Hands down best ygtber ive ever watched. Your effort is insane bro. Best of luck best of luck cuz you got the skill down😂😂

The matches were very engaging to watch and the commentary was well done. Good job with the video and editing.

16:26 yeah you can obvs do that lol. Both cards are sent to the GY, new chain winda gets the chance to activate.

16:34 ruling should be in your favor, coz you can just stack the effect to have the shaddol trap hit grave, winda effect to add back.

loving the content man! really looking forward to more of this

Damn your content is so damn good! How do you not have more subs 😭 instant sub to the channel ❤

Incredible video, really love your quality

Amazing video!!! deck looks amazing

Amazing vid man! Like how you are playing DM and the explainions and thought prosses all in the vid, if you could also include what you side in and out in certain matchup would be nice

Love the list and the commentary. Dm best deck

Yoo you were in my recommendation very nice content upload more often left a sub

I love this game play! Branded DM is really good. Cartisia is a powerhouse for DM. Branded, providing all the dragons needed for dragoon, seems like a perfect match. Quem is also really good card to keep Cartisia or even fallen of albaz live! Would love to see a deck list, as i have a similar deck built. It would help me see any potential cuts or additions for my list. Keep up the amazing work. Fyi, i just got back into the game, its been almost 15 years since ive played and its definitely not the same game i remember. Although its been fun getting to know the new cards and meta. A more brutal game than it use to be.

Loving your videos! Any chance you can make a video showing what cards you have been using at locals?

Godspeed match man

AWESOME

Nice deck. I love it. Oh BTW Guardian Chimera needs a monster on the field as material

Can't wait for another day at locals with DM 🧙‍♂️

Yooooo shiet the kingggg u’re nuts

Hell yeah~

Damn, these are high effort commentary

full 2 outta 3 matches would be rad! include what you side in/out

Interesting situation: The activation of your Branded Fusion gets negated by a Dragoon stolen from you. And since it was the activation that was negated, you are not locked into fusions, which means you could summon Accescode (which is an interesting card to have in the extra, if one plays Branded Fusion and Fusion Deployment in the main). Usually the Branded Fusion gets Ashed, which only negates the effect, which means usually one is still locked into fusions. So, you were kinda "lucky" here.

Lost this series, glad I found it again

Great video! Nice to see how this deck plays out in locals.

Ok, I desperately need a deck list for this. 🥺 I play traditional Dark Magician, but the archetype is horribly outdated for the current metagame. This build actually interests me to change it up!

I’m a new viewer and subscriber, I like how you set up your camera pov from above. Also how you did a voice over when showcasing your duels and giving us insight on what’s going on and what your game plan is. I can’t wait to use this type of deck in locals, btw what engines do you run in here besides DM?

That last duel was something else.

Been playing branded dm in MD and it is actually very consistent. Cartesia is very good.

Man loving your content any chance of getting a more up to date deck profile or is there many changes from the previous one

I would like to see how you innovate these decks for Master Duel format. Would be a good pastime in between YCS videos. Maybe even a Draft Series :)

Not me watching this for the 4th time waiting on another video😅

i want to use blazing cartesian and the shaddoll package but what would you replace the branded package with?

What’s your side board? Btw huge DM guy best of luck to ya bro

Awesome video. Why didnt you use granguignols summon effect when your last opponent summoned druiswurm?

​@MatchieYGO Hi Matchie, will you be featuring a video of the decklist you used in this video? I found cards you used differently from the deck profile you introduced in your previous videos. Hope you will post a video of the decklist you used in this video. Thank you for this great video it was a treat for DM lovers! Hope you make more DM videos 😊

Does "The Dark Magicians" activate in damage step when it dies by battle? He still negates your dharc with dis pater, but you could have done that line.

I'm currently building the deck I've been thinking a lot and I'm starting to find solutions to the problems the deck is having

What did you remove from the previous deck list to add secret village??? X

Can we please get a deck list? I love DM and want to make the best deck i can with him, im relatively new to Yugioh

How do you record it exactly? With a GoPro strapped to your head? I’m interest in doing such stuff myself

where do ppl play locals in vancouver...cant find a single shop

half of fifth game has no sound, i was wondering how the opponent could activate dark ruler despite the secret village ..? anyways, nice video! :)

how do you get the shaddolls out? is it just by schism?

On Game 2 , Soul Servant banish for coast and draw 1 card . Do you not banish this card and draw Dark Magician from your Deck. You can't actvste the effect like this, you must first banish soul servant to draw one . Nice Video:)

Why not just take dragoon with the TTT?

Can I get that granguignol you pulled at the end of the vid?

Man how can I get some affordable singles online?

at 11:07 Why didn't you use your other banned dragoon to return it to your extra deck to fuse dark magician for the other Dragoon?

DM best Deck! I just took a Going 2nd Deck to locals. Top 7 out of 26 Duelists. 💪🏽🧙🏽‍♂️

How was the last opponent activating spell cards with village active?

Were you maining Secret Village? Any thoughts on baronne or chaos Angel given Cartesia and the bystials? (Or does the albaz fusion restriction make it not worthwhile) Granguignol can’t send winda to grab back schism. Would need to be construct or another shaddoll fusion. Is that the main point of double winda or is it to make the second one if the first gets outed?

when we can see the deck list ?

Is Vancouver the next ycs?

Can we get a updated deck profile please ?

Also we NEEED this list

Been running this deck list, ngl it’s been fun. It’s something then full core dm with floodgates lol

Would love to get a side deck profile for this deck from you, would be super super interested to see your thoughts

Still miffed about master duel banning dragoon

You cant send Winda to grave with Granguignol. She is lvl 5 and Granguignol requires lvl 6 ore more

I dont think grangeniol can send winda in 4:08 because it sends a level 6 or higher and winda is 5 Correct me if am wrong

Used a version of this in master dual winda does just mess people up if dragoon was in the deck that would be it shame it’s not

Re: winda adding back schism when they're sent at the same time, I can't imagine this not working. Shouldn't this just be the same as Colossal fighter being able to summon itself since they're worded the same: as a trigger in the GY?

I think you misplayed in the second game winda being a lvl 5 and not 6 granguignol can’t send it to grave.

Decklist?

Deck profile?

isn't dragoon banned?

Where's the deck list?

when you go to the YCS can you do a video on the updated deck list please

Finally someone who knows how to play dark magician. Out of 10 thousand you get 1 good dark magician player ❤️🔥👍

Dark magician is such an interesting deck, it wins by flipping skill drain, rivalry, gozen and summon limit or makes dragoon. Such an interesting strategy

You can't send winda with the effect of Granguignol because it has to be level 6 or higher. Apkallone is your fix for this. Love the deck man

4:53 He couldn't summon Guardian Chimera as Chimera requires at least 1 monster on your side of the field to be used as material.

No audio

Deck looks ass how come I didn't see you at the NAWCQ with dark magician I was there trying my best to make day 2 with it.

i rather not play a deck relying on field spell to play...

Deck profile?
