0:25 You thought I was witch crafter verre, but it was I Dio

Random yugioh fact. >Endymion, Verre and Aliester actually knew each other since they have a history of working together in the past lore-wise, as seen in the introduction of Magistus archetype. >Endymion created his magic citadel later, where verre also chose to stay and also establish her shop and the witchcrafter guild. >sometime later genni got recruited for endymion, becoming the servant. Endymion is waging war with the spellbook tower. >invoker continued his invoking and created spellbook tower, where he's also being kept after his corruption as invoke calligula. >endymion vs spellbooks, blue boi of prophecy got corrupted, and invoker was freed from the tower, fusing him with the tower itself. Based KONAMI

I like a lot these archetype trivia, this one even more since it gives more life into the citadel of mages.

The only reason why I even know about this archetype is because Tea uses it in Duel Links.

The lore behind this seems like it could be its own stand-alone anime....and I would watch it lol. That COULD be an interesting twist on a new yugioh format, telling the tales of the cards and their origins before someone else learned how to summon them to a battlefield and compelled them to fight for the summoner. Maybe even go into how the "cards/monsters" feel about being forcefully dragged to a different dimension and forced to fight a fight that is not their own or previously involved them in any way.

I just noticed that there are some similarities between Aruru and the magician depicted in the giant portrait in Patronus. Coincidence? The witchcrafters might have wanted to create a magical golem in the form of their founder.

7:06 Furthermore, "Edelstein" is german, combining the words "Edel" (same as dutch: "precious") and Stein (Stone), meaning gem stone

I want a slice of life anime with all of them right now. I can even hear most of their voices in my head. Potterie is heart meltingly adorable, Edel is goddamn fab-u-lous, and Genni strikes me as a slightly mad scientist. You know Verre doesn't actually blow glass with her lungs, she just looks like she's allergic to physical effort.

I absolutely LOVE when my smug Loli says NO to my opponent's effects

Dark Magician Girl: Are you challenging me?

Something I found funny: Pittore is actually the male italian word for painter. In the italian version she's correctly called Pittrice which is the female counterpart

Hi! French viewer here, just wanted to confirm that it is pronounced "jeh-nee" and not "geh-nee", you got it right the first time!

I feel Yugioh America Censorship department have dirtier minds than us cause i would think some of this censorship is unnecessary. Or I am just to gay to comprehend.

Witchcrafter Draping is my favorite card art too, it looks like she's striking a JoJo pose AND if your field is full of Witchcrafters you can bounce you opponents entire backrow to their hand. So striking a JoJo pose followed by an intimidating effect are what makes it my favorite. Haine be hitting them with the "Yare yare daze..." and the "Muda da!" at the same time.

Black Pendant is actually my favorite spell card to use and I’m so happy to know who’s which maker of it now. Lol

As your life points hit 0 the last thing you remember is Smug Loli face laughing at you. Mocking you. All this mention of endymion has me wanting to see an Endymion video

Please do a d/d/d trivia please.

I like them. The artwork for them is amazing, and they're fun to play. Smug loli is great. Haine and Schmietta are pretty great too.

The mural in the Patronis trap card seems to be the inspiration behind the design of Aruru. I wouldn’t expect the 6* card to be her, more likely a different craftsman trade or another collaboration. Then again, she could be part of a whole extended set down the road.

7:06 As i checked edelsteen is the dutch word for gemstone. Also the german word for gemstone is Edelstein, so it could also be the origin for the name (german and dutch are very similar languages) And edel (german) or edele (dutch) as single word, means noble. Or it can mean high-quality in terms of goods.

OMG I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE! ONE OF MY FAVORITE ARCHETYPES!

At 10:10 i'm pretty sure there are 7 witchcrafter monsters without golem, so having 7 shops isn't a mistake ^^

How convenient you’d upload this after the archetype was released in Duel Links and subsequently tiered

I was slotting cards today and came across my Witchcrafter cards and got curious about them, so thanks for the video

I LOVE these cards. You can completely throw a wrench into someones play with Haine's effect, then combo summon your entire field full of monsters and OTK with spells like One Shot Wand, Seal of Orich, Black Pendant and Witchcrafter Collab.

Alone they are powerful but together they are unstoppable, Watch out when these witches come together.

Looking at Patronus painting: So, that's where Mima disappeared to after Mystic Square

I've only learned about the existence from this archetype due Duel Links and i was instantly in love with it. Went to my next Comic and Card shop and bought some of them.

The witchcrafter is my second female archetype the other being is dragonmaid

Definitely one of my favourite archetypes. I’d really like to see some more support for them, but what we have right now isn’t bad either.

Seriously, these achetypes need their own anime. Invoker + Spellbook + Endimion + Witchcrafter = A full lenght good story anime.

Wow... Black pendant was created by Edel. This means Black Pendant, a card we've had since forverer actually had a creator. I guess that means that it reinforces the idea of the unites world and the 12 Dimensions. Since we always had access to using the pendant but a "Dimensional Barrier/Portal" and or the power pf Duelists themselves was yet not strong enough to be able to use the strenght of higher more powerful beings as the Witchcrafter guild. I support this because Yugi had Breaker and surely other cards in his deck that used spell counters. And Genni collaborated with Spell Counters. All of this leads me to think that whatever number "x" dimension the human world is in. Is slowly consuming the Spirit World and or Duel Monster world. Gaining control over higher more powerful beings and crafts. Such as the witchcrafter. When in the past yesteryear duelists only used golems, zombies, items/creations and warriors/personas not so strong or relevant to have an impact on an overall Role and Lore. All of this only leads me to think how cool would be a good adaptation of Yugioh using all of these elements and returning to the original Mysticism that characterized this franchiese before it turned into Techno. Basically adapt Duel Terminal and Master Guides but without forgetting of the duelists and the Human dimension.

The fact that the live in the citadel makes me Idk extremely happy because I find it so genius that the people at Konami have so many cross overs in mind I mean endymion/Witchcrafter/spellbook/mythical beast and some other archetypes I just love it Now I need to build an Endymion/Witchcrafter/Spellbook/mythical beast deck

The missing crafter belongs to the allegiance of Crowley, a Prophecy.

I just read Genni moved from the Citadel (Endymion) to the guild (Withcrafters) and not the vise - versa. On I think official Yu-gi-oh facts from Twitter, not sure though. 0:28 "Kono Dio da". 10:26 Silent Magician.

man the censorship in yugioh is so lame

I myself never was a yu gi oh player but I love watching your vids anyways! I find the archetype vidoes interesting and I love learning about yu gi oh♡ Lovee your content man!

I feel like the witchcrafters and the aromages would get on well

Hammer and scissors are just the euphemism of hammer and sickle. Lmao. 😂

It's Fitting that this Video was Uploaded now because I've just Recently Unlocked Tea in DSOD and that I'm Currently trying to get the Cards need to Construct a Witchcrafter Deck in Dual Links. And on a side Note it's kind of a pin going up against the DSOD Tea but at least I'm still able to beat her even on Lv 40. In the Current Event in DSOD of Dual Links

I can't be the only one that thinks Witchcrafter Haine is dressed like Jotaro from JoJo's.

I got the perfect name for the level 6 Witchcrafter based on the Bystreet card. Witchcrafter Lady Talladora (Woodshaper, Spanish) Level 6 - Earth - 1900/2450 - Spellcaster (duh) (Quick Effect) Discard 2 to 3 Witchcrafter Cards, and choose one of these effects: * Special Summon 1 "Witchcrafter Marionette" monsters from your Extra Deck for each discarded card (Level 4/Plant/0ATK/3000DEF) * Special Summon 1 Rank 4 Spellcaster XYZ Monster from your Extra Deck using the discarded cards as XYZ Materials (XYZ Material requirements must be met) If this card is in your GY, banish 1" Witchcrafter" Monster in your GY, Special Summon 1 Rank 4 Spellcaster XYZ Monster from your Extra Deck or GY with this card as its XYZ Material, as long as "Witchcrafter Lady Talladora" is attached to that monster, it is treated as a "Witchcrafter" monster. Lady Talladora could be a defensive card and be a cornerstone of XYZ Summoning/Swarming for the archetype but have the caveat of if Spells are used as a Material and they aren't discarded immediately, that's potentially one less spell in hand to use. Cards like Downered Magician and especially Alchemic Magician could see more play due to the effect of discarding materials back to the graveyard and even sending Witchcrafter cards to the graveyard just to get them back and they can set a Spell Card with Alchemic, like Unveiling.

They look cool. I don’t know how they would fare in competitive but their artworks are so gorgeous!

Hey i c that madame verre's 2nd effect is a watered down version of plasma's 1 sided skill drain effect, cool. Also madame verre is the best waifu out of all the witchcrafters, the smug face is just icing on the waifu.

2 Quick little fun facts I'd like to add: 1. Haine has the the same attribute, type and level as dark magician, and the same Atk and Def as the base form monarchs. 2. Scroll has both a spell counter and what appears to be the nekroz mirror in it's artwork

You earned my sub. As a duel links player I am so glad you have made this.

Clay maker, painter, blacksmith, dresser, knowledge, jeweler, and glass blower

You man you should continue your series on old structure decks, really enjoyed those!

This is one of my new favourite decks - can’t wait to get more cards to complete it!!

I kinda like the Witchcrafter archetype in Duel Links. I use them with Magician Girls. Although it isn’t complete, it works great.

"International version has the drool completely removed" Yeahh boi they better remove it before we get to it

Master duel players: meh DL players: AHHHHHHHHHHH!

I actually have a couple of these cards in Duel Links, and they're honestly quite good to get a two tribute monster out quite fast. I don't have the full set of the archetype so there's ton of room for improvement in that department.

0:32 it’s smug aura mocks me

And here I thought that Madame Verre is a glass cannon of a monster because of her name but it was more of a cannon than a glass cannon.

Love the video and would love one on crystrons but I can't write a script for you

This is my primarily best deck I've built with the help of the Spellbook spell card engine for draw power and extra spell card usage for Verre's effect. I Love that I could also recycle the spellbooks with spellbook tower so I could stay in the game as I draw into more spells to make either my defenses better, or get my offensive tools for my final big blow with the combo of Collaboration's double attack and Spellbook of Power to add a spellbook card to hand for Verre's effect to boost my double attacker for game.

At 0:25 its kinda ironic and funny cuz witchcrafter users used arkana(voiced by dio) as their main chara.

I always thought Servant stepped down to become a Witchcrafter but in retrospect it makes more sense that she stepped up to become an Endymion.

Loving these vids. Love the mix of lore and mechanics. Wish there was more! Lol. Also, I’d love to see the Empire from this video covered. They’re involved with the Witch Crafters, the Spell Book peeps, and by association, my main man, Aleister.

7:30 she also looks like Jotaro from JoJo Part 3... very much so, I think she might be a jojo-reference

This archetype is the most evil and hilarious deck I've played by far and I love it

I like The Withcrafter,s But that dam smug look on Madame Verre!

Witchcrafter decks are my personal favorite deck. Madame Verre has triggered a few of my friends so bad as I prevented him from using his recoveries for his banishing gran Maju deck.

Nooo Konami TCG, stop censoring pretty girls like that!! 😖☹️ That's...a true crime

I pulled a Golem aruru out of a pack once and it made me build a whole deck. It's seriously one of my best if not my best deck.

I love the witchcrafter archetype in fact I actually have a deck that has endymion, mythical Beast and witchcrafter in one deck. It's so funny to beat all of you're opponents monsters with one Monster by using diffusion wave motion activated while witchcrafter madame effect watch your opponent completely just be dumbfounded that they got destroyed by one moster lmao 🤣

0:25 You’re giving me nightmares

Witchcrafter Bystreet and Witchcrafter Scroll seem to have the symbols of both Spell Counters and Spellbook/Prophecy in their artwork. Perhaps the Prophecy archetype is also related in some way?

Every member of the witchcrafters also use a different anime girl trope in their design. Such as madame verre is a smug girl, and the pottery one being a loli, genni being the nerdy one, blacksmith one being tomboy, etc etc.

*I was just gonna request witchcrafter after new support was added in TCG and more importantly they were added in Duel links... Thank you for making this video*

Literally my first archetype I use when I played Master Duel for the first time At first, I use this archetype because the artwork is gorgeous especially madame verre. And I never expected that this archetype carried me to gold and after that, changing my deck to either skystriker, dogmatika, or traptrix

There will be a new archetypes in the ocg, releasing this saturday. I think that system is somehow related to the invoked alester endymion and witchcrafter

Didn't realize this archetype was kinda related to Endymion lorewise, thought it was just a loli deck, might give them some play

I don't like her *points to Madame Verre* Her smug appearance is mocking me

Madame Verre's face is the only thing that brings instant rage to me especially after dsod tea

yep I have used this arch type before In dual nexus is archmage and so my to favorite decks are witchcrafter, endomidome, and aromamage.

It would be crazy if they went deep into the lore if DMG was the 6th level Witchcrafter but they never replaced her.

Said 6 witchcrafters not including the creation but if you count the cards there are 7, not including the creation. All shops accounted for

I kinda want to see the orcusts tbh. But great vid btw, I'm gonna make a deck from these :D

Could you maybe make a video one day about the qliphort or metalfoes archetypes? ^^

They are still kinda a resource sink with specific resources only usable from the hand that don't reset that often

The Golum looks afully similar to the Patronus. Do you think the Patronus was a member of the witchcrafters, maby theyr master and original founder since they all seem to be very young, who is now deceased? It could explain why a creatin using all of theyr skills combined looks like that.

The artwork depicts 7 shops on the street, each store in this card's artwork has different crests that refers to every 'main' "Witchcrafter" girls, which could also probably belongs different group of Spellcasters series/archetype. The most identifiable ownership of each store is as follow: Blue crest ("Spellbook" crest): "Madame Verre" (she is the only predominantly blue "Witchcrafter".) Yellow crest: "Pittore", there seems to be several paint buckets stored in a rack Green crest: "Poterie", there's clay symbol and housing Red crest: "Schmietta" (she is the only predominantly red Witchcrafter".) Brown crest: "Haine" (she is the only predominantly dark colored "Witchcrafter".) Purple crest: "Edel", (she is the only predominantly purple "Witchcrafter.") Spell Counter crest: “Genni”, (she is adorned with the Spell Counter emblem and later becomes “Servant of Endymion.”) I love this video but I think you may have miscounted with the Monsters, as there are 8 (if you include Golem Aruru, who doesnt have a shop as you said shes a creation, but the other crafters are accounted for) I think the image in patronus is Verre from the newly introduced "Magistus" archetype.

2nd Thx Sam, great job, nice to see you still do these types of vids!!

I FREAKING LOVE THESE

Nice. Since you did Spellbooks and Witchcrafters who all are related to Endymion, you should do Mythical Beasts then Endymion.

I don't even know how many times I've asked right now(may be 13 times?): SYNCHRON AND JUNK ARCHETYPE TRIVIA gosh darn it.

8:56 This Big Bae is my Bae Construct !! before she got corrupted i guess O.o

I use Golem in my Fortune Lady deck, such a nice card for quick removal or recovery

i wish someone would make a video about the history of the vagabond character, it's kinda sad he's appeared throughout the entirety of the Tag Force yet no one talks about him, not that there's much to talk about.

we need a good level 6 witchcrafter and a link monster. a returning field spell would be cool but secret village is good enough

0:25 i litereally almost choked on my drink i had to spit it out idk why but that was hilarious lmao

I was looking through the playlist Sam and realized you hadn't done a blackwing archetype, so blackwing video soon? please I love those cards

I love when something comes in Duel Links 'cause there's a TGS video about it... know time to the Fossil Archetype men just because Jim Crocodyle

I love the endymion lore that goes with the witchcrafter cards

5:03 No you said it (almost) right the first time :-) 8:15 Per-fect 👌

Man such a great video I love witchcrafters so much this just made them so much cooler. I also really really hope and wish one day they get a new main deck boss monster that can negate one spell or trap by discarding a spell card 😍😍 because that will just make them perfect and them them alot.

Thank you so much! I was just asking for it on one of your videos last week lol

Gotta love witchcrafter genni 5:24
