He’s one of the first “normal”people in terms of his presentation, while being extremely good at the game, to not make yugioh look like a bad game. 😂 like he’s never making things into a bigger thing than they are, which Konami does a good job of hiring people like this already, but these older employees are just not gifted at the game like Josh. He just feels like someone you’d like to know at your locals, who wouldn’t shark you or rip you off. He’s too busy being great!!!

It's scary as hell. The deck is busted. Konami has a method to there madness tho. Foresight and hindsight 20/20 where they nerf snake eyes before fire king comes into the game lol.

I mean there isn't much powerful decks that can rival it in MD most of the decks got hit by the banlist

Doesn't help when every other relevant deck looks like it's playing a singleton format MD and ocg banlist looks retarded Maxx c makes this worse too lol

It was my snake-eye deck of choice for md

I started labbing Snake-Eye in MD with separate Rescue-ACE and Sky Striker builds and Immediately saw results. Going to need to craft Linkuriboh and/or Relinquished Anima for all those Level 1s(Linkuriboh since it works on tokens and allows for easier Heatsoul access, Anima because you can actually steal monsters with its SUCC if you run enough Snek engine to summon them out). Also tried to do some Infernoble stuff but I don't know the Isoldeless lines thoroughly yet so I need practice with those in case I have to run a TCG variant of the build. Poplar allows for some complex options, especially if you run any searchers for it(mainly Where Arf Thou and 1 for one until Bonfire gets added to MD). Maxx "C" complicates things in MD though since this engine can do a lot of special summons, enough that you can actually get hit by Nibiru and want to set up potential countermeasures for that by placing certain monsters in the Spell/Trap zones or using certain floats/backrow like Diabellestar, Reinforce, or even the Tribute Immunity of the Hornet Drones token to brute force through it(assuming you don't get a Barrone/Apollousa opening early enough, which is unlikely with all the hoops you have to go through just to get to Jet Synchron/Renaud).

"vibes"

Hypocrisy at it's finest

Josh is a Konami employee confirmed

Maybe in like 5 years

@@Delir1umTremens when it will be limited

Ridiculously broken decks that power creep the whole meta are always expensive until they get hit. Konami needs to just release ban lists with the new set every time they make a game changing card in high rarity.

Stay optimistic find a way to make more money grind it out ask for a miracle never believe b can't get it !!!I believe u would be a snake eyes specialist sooner than never u legend!

Budget is very playable.

Wtf pay wall much .. Guess that's one way to get money from the players

Recently Konami has been bumping rarities more and more, guess I'll keep using branded and swordsoul

By the time bonfire come, i expect it to be limited just like rota, powerful yet 1 is enough

​@@foxblackbirds777you can easily get all of them for free if you've played for a while. As opposed to the tcg where this deck would cost 800€+

I'm OK with Diamond and Master Rank being a shitshow. I don't really need to sink a ton of time and money on an engine. Even when it's ostensibly cheaper in MD, I can't say it interests me. I'll play fire decks to try stuff out, but I am not married to a deck just because it's popular.

I could see Poplar beeing banned 2-3 ban lists from now.

It will be banned eventually, or maybe othe core snake eyes cards. Tho not anytime soon, maybe half year more lol

Nah you meant L in the chat

Lmao poplar is like a half circular

Poplar is not as good as circular

Well, there was also the option of Set Feast-Pass. Having a real play on turn 1 is nice.

Break their board, I think hand traps are officially dead this format.

​@@Saixjacket I wouldn't say completely dead. Droll and shifter are decent.

@@createrz8433 you are right, actually. I think droll is being designed for with all of the “put a card from your deck in the st zone” but d shifter is so good decks that don’t play well under it are using it 🤣 point being is hand traps are losing a lot of impact as long as Konami is on this “st zone placing and summoning” centurion I’m looking at you with mixed feelings for starting a trend 🤣

Super poly if your deck can side it. Droll isn''t enough

I'm calling it right now when the Tenpai Dragons come out in the TCG/Master Duel the snake eyes engine well be used in it and it well pop off.

Sorry for a rant there, but amazing video showing the combo! It's fun evolving to look at how some 1 card combo's can actually strengthen any deck rather than complain about how it breaks the game. I think it's evolving and in a very fun way!

@@GalaxyGrubzFun? Hard disagree. When you say “so many decks” you literally just mean the top decks in tournaments. Branded, Snake Eye, Labyrinth, Tear, Kashtira, etc. And it’s not a matter of “hype if it benefits me”. There were one card starters in the past (Tour Guide, Speedroid Terrortop, A Hero Lives, Mathmech Circular, etc) but it’s almost always become a big enough issue down the line that Konami has to respond with a hit. The issue me and others have atm is that rather than being an occasional occurrence, Konami is making this a pattern they’re intentionally steering into for profit. Print some stupid one card starter, hit it when it’s time to release the next stupid one card starter (see half the Ishizu engine and Kashtira Unicorn, and I guarantee you Poplar, Sinful Spoils or whatever is next on the chopping block). We’ve been in like 4 back to back tier 0 formats over the past year. This isn’t a Yugiboomer issue (I played the most during Arc V and Vrains). It’s the fact that Konami seems DESPERATE to relegate staple cards to obscurity, to the point of making decks which laugh at Ash, Droll, or Nibiru. And one card starters are part of the issue as they compartmentalize entire engines to the point where it’s never “figure out what hand traps are most reliable for the current meta”. It’s become “what’s the least amount of cards I can run before shoving my entire deck full of generic disrupters”. It has just made the decision making and deckbuilding lamer. Your “upside downside” performative fairness is just a smokescreen to brush off genuine concerns people have with the game.

Jet Synchron was already played in OCG, especially in the last weeks bc most players switched to the synchro version bc it has the better end board

One reason I run it (in MD) is the option for Formula Synchron, which lets you make Borrel-Savage or Baronne on your opponent’s turn

@rand0mlyhere I see that, but that's so simple as to not even constitute an actual explanation. "I added 1+1 to make 2" okay, but at what point did we decide 2 was necessary to make or that addition here is the most axiomatically correct thing to do? These are the interesting questions at hand that simply pointing at the cards cannot answer. I can come up with my own reasons why these synchros are interesting in the upcoming format, but I have no idea if I've seen every angle nor do I have the practice to see what's better in practice than on paper.

Jet Synchron is already played a lot, there are a bunch of DB duels you can watch

@@DaedricSheep I see. Unfortunately: it would seem I’m not the internet stranger to answer this question. Though, perhaps, this could start an interesting discussion. A few other benefits, not including Formula Synchron shenanigans, that could come from the use of Jet: Extender, Searchable with Snake-Ash (and Original Sinful Spoils) if you’ve run out of in-engine targets, helps discard (which could be used to draw through the grave effect of Seeker of Sinful Spoils. Maybe there’s more, but this is just what comes off the top of my head. Maybe this should’ve been my initial comment to begin with. Maybe I’m blowing smoke? Ultimately, I’ve just found the card to be a convenient/comfy as a 1-of in my current list.

What I'm here to find out also
