That’s how I felt when I saw Shinato on this list. It was the first Ritual Monster I fell in love with back in the 2000’s when I was trying (and failing) to build a good Fairy deck.

@@TheTrueLeafless Really, the problem is that the new Demise and Ruin can't really use Impcantations that well, given the whole "use Rituals in their Ritual Summon" mechanic.

@@misterbadguy7325 I only offered as an explanation, why. Also they were able to run the original 2 pretty well. It became a bit of a size problem, when suddenly there were more Impcantations. I played Demise & Ruin a bit after they got their stuff. Was lucky enough to still have the old package right upon release.

@@misterbadguy7325 I disagree. They can still OTK even without their bonus effects. You just have to extradeck the railcannon xyz. Ruin first for effect protection then Demise to nuke the field. Attack with both and in MP2 bring out the Railcannon and pop them for 2k.

@@misterbadguy7325 That doesn't really matter for demise since his bonus effect is just not having to pay life points, with this deck you wanna get a r10 Ruin with the bonus effect of attacking twice (which is a lot easier to get if you use the impcantations to search the monster you're gonna use as a material) and a demise on field, either the r8 or the r10 works and you can use the impcantations as materials for him, using the r8 version of demise is even marginally better because he can use the effect multiple times to destroy cards that come back after being destroyed, you can pull the otk off pretty often and through a single disruption depending on your hand, but if the opponent doesn't let you search or has a destruction immune monster with more than 3000 atk it's over for you (unless you're a weirdo and run honest and dark honest to beat over monsters in this very specific situation).

Yu-Gi-Oh usually gives its best ideas to its most original ideas and they usually half-ass anything that was already an idea that they decided to incorporate for some reason usually just because the idea is popular :-/

like the whole archetype based on Norse Mythology :-/

The supports are good though, the problem is within Ruin herself

That's only a 1/6 chance of happening though + there is a card called That Six that is a continuous trap that allows you to manipulate dice rolls: 1/3/5 get treated as 6 and 2/4/6 get treated as 1. So with this trap in effect you go from having a chance of blowing up your own monsters to having a 50/50 of blowing up all of the opponents monsters.

You can also use it as fodder for xyz summoning rank 3 xyz monsters

@@twilightstar9973 Why on Earth would you do that though?

Not really. At best you could argue that it should be ahead of vendread chimera. Every card on the list after that is just worse. Shinato has a similar effect and more attack, but i'd still say emerald eagle is better because it automatically destroys the monster and doesn’t care about battle position like Shinato does. And this is the default effect of the card so you don't have to summon it twice to get it. The part that requires you to summon it twice is the nuke effect. Plus it has the salamangreat archetype backing it where as half the cards on this list don't have an archetype at all.

Emerald eagle is not that bad because pre preparation of rites exists and it works on emerald eagle because of the last effect of rise of the salamangreat

they future proofed the salamangreat ritual to say any salamangreat ritual. people only think it works because 1: it's the only salamangreat ritual 2: the ritual spell has a clause if it's negated to summon a emerald eagle

There's absolutely no way that thing is worse than Elemental Mistress Doriado, it belongs to a meta archetype that can mill required cards easily and a lot of searches.

there are some ritual monsters that do stuff without ever hitting the field (Sauravis, Benten, all the Nekroz)

you haven seen nekroz in action do you? Especially when djinn made them tougher with their special summon lockout combo

@@isaacvitela5131 I mean the OP isn't saying there are ZERO strong ritual monsters, but that on average the entire mechanic should bring out the strongest monsters on AVERAGE. And it's a fairly good point. Ritual summoning is the most difficult and punishing summoning mechanic there is (by itself (as in ignoring the monsters who add harsher conditions onto their Simmons)). A broken Ritual monster is inherently more balanced than a broken link monster (or any other extra deck) because it takes that much more effort to summon a ritual monster. Worse case scenario if it's decided a ritual monster is TOO broken, all Konami needs to do to slow it down is ban or limit the archetype specific ritual card. It kinda just makes sense if you're making a trading card game. For that same matter, I'd say the strongest (on average) monster effects should be on Gemini monsters because that inherently makes broken effects slower. I mean in neither case would the broken effects necessarily fix the inherent problems with the mechanic, but I am 100% sure that having so many mediocre monsters is helping neither mechanic.

@@vullord666 when you realize the best ritual is a searcher rip benten

@@isaacvitela5131 The problem was most likely djinn, a generic ritual support more than the archetype itself. Yeah, nekroz where strong as hell but still with djinn banned they lost a lot of their power.

@@selenerahman4586 oh thank you

Team APS does this as well.

Making "playable" decks is not toooo hard, but making "good meta decks" is kinda impossible. If any given person is smart enough to make old stuff viable, then that same person should be able to make completly broken stuff with new cards, which mean someone else can too, and then the meta advances and the old stuff is almost worthless again. On the other hand there are cards that have amazing combo potential with new cards, and one could always be the first to notice that.

I know he does custom card reviews like that

I think it was used by Noah in the origin series. It was mostly just a pun/allusion to Noah's name (that being Noah's Arc). Other than that, if you find a way to control your opponents monsters' attack position monsters--and shift them to defenses mode--I can see a gimmicky Shinato deck working :')

Its not even a real gimmick, its just an effect that lets you still cause damage if all your opponent is doing is setting and passing while you have nothing else to summon because you spent all your resources on a shitty ritual monster.

@@mateusrp1994 If you run impcantations and use Creature Swap, as Impcantations all havd zero attack and defense, you can do 8000 damage with Chaos Max. Though, Shinato's effect won't apply; he was an old card, after all

@@nintendolife25 That’s what I was thinking!! Imagine if royal magical library said that

Wow, that’s even worse. Ritual summoning is already a hefty cost to begin with. Why demand more for only one good effect?

You can actually use it multiple times. The wording just makes it confusing. The problem: good luck getting 6+ spell counters on a ritual monster, keep that ritual monster on the field long enough to do so, and quickly rack up spell counters without the use of decks that use them, since those other spell counter decks devote so many other cards to effectively include Legendary Flame Lord. So yeah, they might as well have just said “you can only use this effect once per Duel.” And I say “once per DUEL”, because who the hell is gonna bring this shit back from the grave!?

Actually, it says "When there are 3 Spell Counters on this card", which means if you have some way to add/remove Spell Counters on it then bring it back to 3, then you can trigger its effect again. Although the text shown in the video does imply that it's mandatory.

same.

Especially when there’s a FAR easier to summon Ritual monster that can quasi-do the same thing as it’s own effect repeatedly, plus possibly inflict burn damage (I’m talking about Relinquished, if nobody caught on).

@King of The Zinger I just realized that Reshef The Dark Being is even worse than I thought due to the fact that you have to discard a spell to use an effect that only lasts FOR THE TURN THAT YOU USE IT.

Reshef is very lackluster but not as bad as some other cards here. It essentially turns every spell card in your hand into a potential Change of Heart, which is actually a good effect. It's not worth the effort of going into a ritual summon for it, but it's just not bad enough for top 10.

Nekroz already happened years ago, and that was probably as good as Rituals are ever going to get

@@ExeloMinish what about drytron?

The problem is speed. The moment that game would move in the same direction this one did, the Ritual support would need to be bonkers in an environment where everything else is not. At this point in time, Rituals themselves need hyper consistency and hyper effects to keep up. Things like this and Fusions are disadvantaged by the card requirements. Syncro are easier, xyz are even more so. Links are super easy. So you need hyper focused archetypes and great effects. Dragoon is not good because is a fusion, is good despite of that. Bypass the inherit limitations. Rituals themselves are at another level. So Neckroz, but earlier.

​@@dancorneanu9144 Impcantations: "I guess people just forget about us unless they are doing Creature Swap into Chaos MAX for an OTK." Gishki: "Remember when we were considered a problematic FTK and put on the banlist?" Nekroz: "If only you all had hand effect privileges, like us." But yeah, even with Impcantations - Ritual Monsters overall are just too bricky to be viable. Nekroz monsters having hand effects is nice, I wish more Ritual Monsters had them. More experimental Ritual Spell cards like those of Nekroz and Gishki would also be welcome.

The deck with my best win rate is my ritual blue eyes deck. It’s extremely consistent thanks to the Impcantations.

Just to correction *can be tribute itself to special summon 1 lvl 5 or higher cyberse from your hand or deck It is actually not that great outside getting high lvl cyberse or using cyberse ritual spell that you mentioned. Possibility good at niche rouge deck and that's all

If ritual monsters worked the same way as masked heroes, they probably would have been, like, at least a known monster type back in the old days of yugioh

Relinquished/thousand eyes had a shit ton of play back in the day..but besides that ritual monster have cam and went my favorite that almost got me to regionals was gishki...got unlucky in last 2 needed tournaments.

That's actually how they balanced Ritual and Fusion Monsters from the early days of YGO; Fusion Monsters need a specific Spell Cards and Materials to Summon a Monster that is readily available everytime (due to being in the then-called Fusion Deck), whereas Ritual Monsters require a certain Spell Card and any materials as long as they meet the level requirements with the risk of not having the Ritual Monster on hand, or vice versa. They have roughly the same amount of risk and reward, thus balancing (to the point that they were overbalanced) these monster types, at least in the early days that Tribute Summoning were far more desirable than either.

@@elijahcruz6633 you also didn't have a plethora of hand traps in every deck that could negate said summons or summon components.. utility wasn't as common or as strong in the older days...(excluding pot of greed, monster reborn, and mirror force)

Interestingly, that's how they originally were in the anime. When Yugi first summoned Black Luster Soldier he just had to draw the spell card for it, implying that like Fusion, Ritual monsters came from outside the deck. Unfortunately, at the time the ability to special summon a high attack level monsters with just one card and generic material was seen as too powerful. Heck, in the early days of Yugioh, Ritual was still seen as a step above Fusion, as they needed two specific cards from the main deck, as opposed to Fusion that required at least 3. That's why you would see decks based around Ritual summoning in the early days of Yugioh, where a player would use a deck with 3 Sonic birds + 3 Senjus + Sangan and Witch of the Black Forest to search through their decks for the required cards (it also helped the one of the early Ritual monsters was Relinquished, which was one of the best early boss monsters). By comparison, Fusion based decks didn't really become a thing until Hero decks. Of course in the end, the fact that Fusion monsters were in the extra deck meant they could evolve to keep up with the game in a way that Ritual monsters couldn't. Nowadays there are so many cards that can summon a Fusion monster using materials from the deck or graveyard if not bypass the material requirements altogether (eg. Instant Fusion). By comparison, even if you have a Ritual spell card that can use materials from the deck or graveyard you still have to draw it and the Ritual monster. Heck, even a Ritual spell card that can bring out a Ritual monsters AND its materials from the deck may still not be appealing these days due to the risk of drawing that Ritual monster and then having a Garnett in hand.

That would mean a weird hybrid of Syncro and Fusion. Specific target levels and dependent on deck spell. Maybe if they kept a proportional power to ease of summon between cards.

Baring just staple cards like Raigeki and Dark Hole. Maybe a trap heavy deck? Combine this with Jinzo. Oh, boy.

That was how Rituals seemed to work in the early video games, and even the manga to some degree, which makes it weird that they went "nah, in the hand bro."

@@misterbadguy7325 In early Yugioh, as in the original manga and games, the cards that change (Fusions and Rituals, Dark Sage) were not actual cards. The idea was the cards actually changed or fused. The actual entities. Based on charts. It was supposed to be translated that they come from an infinite deck of cards with cards for every combination. So the only thing you needed was the target material and the spell. Konami wanted to make it into what we got today. The same way we got Fussion Flame Swordsman and Dark Sage in main deck. Dark Sage with only Dark Magician and Time Wizard would be a little easiear to get to. And with a free spell search... Any spell. That would be... decent at that time with a little more suport.

​@@dancorneanu9144 the thing is, aside from Relinquished and Demise, I can't think of any other early Ritual monsters that would see play, even with that change. A big beater like Shinato would still require two tributes, and that's STILL a lot of resources to ask. Maybe Paladin of White Dragon would actually be okay? in Goat format, a special-summoned 1900 attacker who blows up troublesome set monsters is pretty good, and since he'd only require (usually) 1 card tribute, that's pretty manageable.

@@LazurBeemz Yes, but think with wah the other guy has. Fussions. That do almost nothing for weird cards. This guys, with no specific cost, you just need the spell and any card you have in your hand.
