Oh and about that Mirror business and why Ice Barriers would have something to counter their boss monster. The whole point of the Ice Barrier tribe is to keep the three dragons sealed forever. Worlds tend to end when they're free, especially good ol' Trish. Funnily enough, this might even explain why they're so bad at summoning their Synchros : with the exception of Dewloren because fuck if I know where he fits in all this, IBs never intended to bring them out in the first place.

Daniel Ramsey Sheesh man, stop being so cold. Ice Barriers are cool, even though they have glacial speed, they are pretty chill. Snow some respect. OK, puns aside, I love me some DT Archetypes, but it's clear they were designed kinda like teams on a vacuum for the DT videogames. Ice Barriers are an interesting idea of an Archetype that slows the game down to make its plays, and the real payoff is on making the Archetype's Bosd Monsters instead of the monsters themselves, which totally works if your opponent is Allies Of Justice or some shit, but not all cards were made for the DT Games, and they totally dropped the ball on the outside support. Worms got Nebula Meteorite, Flamvells got Rekindling, Mist Valleys got Divine Wind, Ice Barriers got... Medallion and Triangle. Ugh.

In duel terminal lore what was left of the Gishki became the Nekroz. Besides the 3 cards that the Ice Barriers had that did "become" the Nekroz were Gungir, Trishula and Brionac who need no redeeming due to how good they are.

@M9Seradon 6 жыл бұрын

Heckels of Sheckels You do realize Gishikis were descended from the Ice Barriers right? Hell, if their overall theme didn't make it obvious enough the game spells it out for you by having all 3 generations based around the use of shamanic/ritualistic spells channeled through the good, old IB Aquamirror. Nekroz are quite literally Neo Neo Ice Barriers

@heckelsofsheckels326 6 жыл бұрын

It isn't obvious, because not only do Gishkis and Necroz (Ritual spamming) have a much different play style compared to the Ice Barriers (Lockdown with Synchros), thus implying difference, a ritual theme is only prevalent in a couple cards of ice barriers out of a total 18-20 Ice barrier cards, and in terms of what does connect them when it comes to lore, its mostly just a bunch of crappy to decent cards that aren't connected to any archetype which you would overlook and forget about as a result.

@heckelsofsheckels326 6 жыл бұрын

I also forgot to mention a single tidbit of information that connects them to the Ice Barriers whilst not outright stating they are descendant from them, this is also considering that the final event in the first duel terminal story line was Trishula freezing the entire planet. Which presumably caused immense casualties, as you never hear of several archetypes from the first story ever again. So forgive me if I didn't think that the Ice Barriers became Gishki.

@kintsuki99 5 жыл бұрын

@@heckelsofsheckels326 All lore about the gishiki and the necroz says they use the relics from the ice barriers to mutate themself in distorted monster, gishiki, and to use the power of legendary monster with enfase on the ice barriers dragons, necroz.

IT'S HAPPENING, MY FELLOW RUFFIANS! A structure deck was announced in 2020. But my suggestion for how to get Ice Barriers to work is just 4 cards: 1) The big thing it needs is an engine that makes sense. What I came up with is a Continuous Trap where up to twice per turn, you can return an Ice Barrier card from your GY to your Deck, to special summon one Level 6 or lower Ice Barrier monster from your deck in defense position. -- This works for: Raiho, Dai-Sojo, Dance Princess, Warlock, Defender, Secret Guards, Geomancer, Cryomancer, Strategist, Spellbreaker, and Prior. -- It's set up by: Strategist, Spellbreaker, Prior, Gungnir, and Brionac. 2) A once per turn Trap that negates any effect or summon, either from the field or by discarding itself, if you control an Ice Barrier card. 3) A field that makes it so you don't have to Tribute for the big monsters. If the field is sent to the GY, you can special summon one Ice Barrier monster from your hand. 4) A Link 1 that requires ANY Tuner as material (they have 4: Geomancer, Defender, Cryomancer, and Dewdark), that searches 1 Ice Barrier Spell or Trap when it's summoned. The overall strategy is to swarm monsters, and play defensively but not overwhelmingly, combining cards for a variety of defensive options. Remember that Trishula is the enemy they're holding back (see Medium, Mirror), so the playstyle is to form a barrier. Or as Or as Stan Van Gundy might say, "Form a ... WALL!" Based on the monsters' stats and playstyle, they also work with Salvage, Surface, Aquarium Stage, White Howling, or Spiritual Water Art - Aoi.

The sad thing is that Ice Barriers are just 1 or 2 monsters or spells away from being a legit good swarm/synchro spam archetype due to their graveyard setup and bounce effects which suffer simply for being too slow to pull off. Just a spell that allows for easy summoning of Guntala and a monster that has a beneficial low level monster special summoning effect for discarding (since a lot of Ice Barriers discard as their effect) would make them a formidable Trish and Brionac engine. That doesn't stop like 90% of their monster lineup from being completely useless, but Prior and Strategist with some kind of support that allows their effects to be spammed is all that's needed to make up for so much of the archetype's horrid problems.

Reason they can't easily summon the ice dragons is because they were never meant to be released since they were pretty much flying WMDs that would end the world if they were released. Same reason why mirror hard counters the ice dragons because it is what they used to keep them sealed. Mirror is actually supposed to be a hard counter against a player who you know will be summoning the ice dragons.

Good episode on Ice Barrier. I would love for other Duel Terminal archetypes to be covered. Since Flamvells were done LOTW, it would be cool to see their (arguably) successor Lavals be covered. As well as Dragunity.

I love these videos. They're great to have on while multitasking (making food, folding laundry). Could you do a video about Watts? They're pretty unique as the only direct attach archetype to see play (Earthbound's never caught on), they have a collection of double-attackers, and the Watthopper lock used to be infamous during the days of the Samurai and Inzektors.

I had sh*t loads of fun with a hybrid ice barrier/frogs lock down and Wetlands beatdown deck. If I remember correctly, it had a fair share of direct attack options and 'nope' cards.

Surprised that you didn't bring up Water Hazard helping with swarming and Synchro Summons, but as someone who played Ice Barriers, I agree with what you said. They're largely obsolete, but still better than the LotW archetypes

Give them pendulum summoning support and problem solved. A scale of 1 and an opposite scale of 9, this way you can spam the field for their synchros and use their mediocre effects more effectively.

I play ice barriers casually, mostly bc I love the artwork. With the new Graydle Slime and Eagle, Aqua Spirit and Undine, they're actually fairely decent. Obviously nothing near any Tier 1 (or even Tier 3) Decks but fun to mess around with with your friend. It's fun to pull of a complete lock with the dog, dai-sojo and guards.

And then the Arcana Forces did eat that medallion 3 years later. Until it promptly turned upside down and made them spit out whatever their opponent needed at that very moment.

The mirror's bizarre effect was another case of lore theming. The mirror was the magic item used by the ice barriers to entrap Trishula. That is why it seems to counter its effects despite being an ice barrier card and having Trishula designs in the card art.
