Wouldn't you just be able to ash the halq? Wouldn't that shutdown the deck?

@@jacobortiz7087 That is why i put the "Crossout Designator", is one but some times one card can safe you, also i put some baits to Ash like "Foolish burial". But anyway Yes one Ash can Shut Halq but usually they are not going to keep the Ash, automatically when you use your Normal summon Searcher the Opponent would use Ash and that doesn't matter in much of the scenarios. The real Sh*t is Nibiru cuz the only way to get off of him is with Designator

Lose to hand traps

Does it work even if you Ash halq?

Can't wait for Konami to stop milking halq and just ban it or errata it into oblivion

*surprised Pikachu face*

Go t set boomer

Same with crystrons and ice barriers. Lot of bad decks with a couple of broken cards

@@literallygrass1328 i think ice barrier was built to be this way

I mean, yes, it is? Deskbot 001 is only ever used for degenerate plays. Same for Auroradon. Halq offers a lot of different plays in a lot of decks. Be it for synchro, link climbing, or simply calling out an interupt in ghost ogre. He's just neat. I understand why Konami tries to avoid banning him when they can hit cards that do nothing else but the degenerate shit like 001 and auroradon do.

@@claire6452 problem is that halq is the reason people are able to do degenerate one card combos in the first place. the materials for halq are basically generic so people can basically just put it into any deck without much consequence. all you need is 1 brick and 3 extra deck slots to make a 3 negate borreload savage dragon

Negate Auroradon and the combo just ends and they scoop

@@calumennis4529 just draw the ash bro

Auroradon is responsible for most of the degeneracy in this case, if we are gonna ban anything, it should be auroradon first. MBT's last moron banlist tournament really highlighted this.

He does adress this at the end of the video. It isnt optimized at all so he is confident that it xan be playable through handtraps

@@overlord19980608 ok, play through nib and infinite imperm lol

Ban Deskbot 001. There shouldn’t be a generic tuner that can revive itself multiple times a turn.

@@AshnakAGQ Lowkey you have a point Deskbot resummoning itself into oblivion is BS for a lvl 1 tuner

Evertime I use Halq and Aurora I feel like I'm cheating -.-

Yea but most people don’t know the choke points of such decks

I think The best way to make konami ban the card is abuse it XD

Nah they'll just ban more tuners, and cards that use halq to climb into themselves like auroradon (TCG)

You can run several handtraps and still have a greater than 90% chance, so if you run 3 crossout and 2 called by and solemn judgements, you'll almost always be able to play through handtraps esp with god knows how many starters

@@ValunarTonix auroradon's banned in the TCG

you're a clawn if you build this

Where is the fun with such an deck, just super toxic

I'd say ban Halq instead. It has been a consistent problem card for ages and has gotten a bunch of tuners banned. I don't understand why Konami will go to such lengths to avoid banning it.

@@TheLamartian halq gives rogue decks a chance. Auroradon is a 2-5 negate enabler

@@TheLamartian if auroradon is banned, what degen combo does halq have? I'm just curious

35 special summons off 1 card

So... Max c into deck out?

@@thelastgambler5423 Special summoned monsters not Special summons

@@sadfasdfdfasf5372 off a 1 card starter still pretty nuts

If 001 had a hard once per turn, or even a once per duel effect on its special summon effect, it would not be that bad. Konami was doing everything it can to not ban Halqifibrax. At least I think it is banned in the OCG finally. I know Verte took forever but the TCG just put Halq to 1 and banned Verte and the OCG banned Verte too on their last list. But honestly I’ve seen Halq, summon 001, summon Auroradon so many times it’s just insane. The fact you can continue to special summon 001 because it isn’t a hard once per turn is what really enables a lot of these things but auroradon being banned recently helped in the TCG anyways. I don’t remember the OCG list currently.

The problem is auroradon. Homie summons 4 monsters *twice*, counting your deskbot. Even without the deskbot, it summons 3 monsters twice. It's dumb they printed it

to lose to 1 handtrap?

@C.O.V.I.D. Certificate of Vaccination ID link monsters themsleves are fine. Any mechanic can be fine and balanced, it's ALWAYS about the effects that come with it. Like, imagine if our links were limited to stuff like missus radiant and whatnot lmao. It wasn't link monsters, yugioh has had crazy combo shit before link monsters. Remember magical scientist FTK bud? Frog FTK? :)

Exactly. Modern yugioh is a fucking mess. It doesn't help that the ban list is terrible as well.

no, you dont win after your first turn(going first or second) so the solution is to play stuff that gets rid off handtraps

Halq just needs a ban, that's it.

@@Chestyfriend Nah you would destroy syncro decks, banning auroradon is better

@@juampisito halq ban is 2 birds with one stone

Synchro decks can survive well enough without halq. Ban that crap.

@@juampisito OCG just proved me right, they're banning Halq. Wish MD would ban UR cards, but it probably won't happen sadly.

Nibiru

@@kevinli7473 A single card doesn't change anything, the game itself is f***** up

@@kevinli7473 nibiru doesnt fix stupid card design. It only encourages using equally stupid card design as a counter

@@undeadinside3571 was thinking the same. Also you have to have this card in your first hand (are we playing uno or smt?), it is not a fixer by any means.

@@kevinli7473 and on most occasions nibiru doesn’t even stop a card combo because the cards that get sent to the graveyard have effects to keep the combo going anyway

The more people play this deck and ruin things, the sooner it is until Konami is FORCED to fix it.

Mm Alright

Security by obscurity doesen't work.

Security through obscurity is a wonderful philsophy.

Kinda hard to though cause everyone runs a different amount and variations of hand traps. Like I run only 1 Maxx C and Ash while I had an opponent run 3 of each. And even then the guy said he could optimize with his own handtraps to include crossout desi. At which point the argument boils down to "lol this deck isn't even that bad just open with Ash, Maxx C, Nib, and Divine Imperm every match lol."

Yeah showing the decklist will definitely help ^^

DO NOT PLAY THIS DECK

I’m saying

Konami seems to be watching too

@@Gurkan790 and do absolutely nothing

Hahhahahah, funny that you think Konami is banning any more cards

If they don't then this game should rightly burn to the ground. Master duel has done a great job of showing the world just how poorly made and unbalanced this game really is

In master duel's first ban list they didn't even touch super rares or ultra rares.

@@eonflutehza131 False, they did touch minimum 1 super rare (sekka's light). They should've banned some ultra rare cards for sure.

Clearly the problem card is wizard of tomorrow

3 axis brave?

How many of those use Auroradon? Pretty much every single one. Halqi has a lot unique uses the interaction between deskbot and aurordon is what creates the degeneracy

Banning Auroradon is good enough to be honest.

Auroradon is the problem, not Halq. Halq isn’t the one giving you a +5

i usually agree in going straigth for the problem card, but for this, im not sure halqi is as much of a problem as Auroradon, i think both are equally important and without either of them the comboline just wont work, however, i think halqi is a better card to keep and that its actually useful in strong but not degenerate lines (igknigth is the only one that comes to mind), i dont mind if both of them get banned, but i think Halqi is more of a loss for most decks.

@@TJKuro halq is generic Auroradon is not the only decks that abuse it are machine decks and they dont combo even without it halq can still make scythe lock + barrone so im gonna go with halq being the problem by proxy of being way to generic and having more versatility

No deck can reach 30 negates and also if you’re allowing them to reach anywhere close to that high of negates then that’s you’re own fault. Also, Konami never makes a card with the intention of it causing ftk’s. Also also, Magic has infinites in them that do way worse so Yugioh isn’t even the only offender

They wouldn't, because if this deck is viable it would've seen tournament play.

@@mitsunekolucky671 But the cards Dkayed is using, just released yesterday

@@mitsunekolucky671 what tournaments? Did one happen today or something?

FTK that cannot be stopped by handtrap is broken. Otherwise , it just stay as toxic rather than broken

@@TrueGamer22887 Even more reason why FTK decks on ladder are more meaningless than in tournament. In a tournament, a viable FTK deck can randomly smoke someone and delete them out of top cut. In Master Duel, it's literally just a meaningless loss because any positive winrate will drag your rank up. Losing a random game because of draw is perfectly expected. People see 99.9% of drawing a single line as a big benefit, but it's more like a 25% winrate. 50% chance of going second, 50% chance of your opponent having 1 handtrap if they run 6 (in a world were most decks run more). Literally no FTK deck is scary. They're just a coinflip since if you can successfully disrupt them once, they get wiped because they don't have a single gameplan outside of FTK.

draw the out daaawwgg...TCG moto I guess. :XD
