Zombies are the undead deck after all 💪

For me, little beats the joy of skull servant OTK's

​@@u.r.a.🔥🔥🔥

No matter what I year I decide to come back and check on the game, theres always new Zombie Variations and support. Gotta Love It

Zombies are a TYPE. You don’t need to type arch

I know! you really felt as if her favorite deck was zombie punk despite the fact that zombie punk has 0 players on a good day

I remember playing zombie back in 2019-2020 and cooking up some evil shit, I'm talking like solitaire plus banshee/zw to make a buster locked doomking (halq and carrier legal) and I made a version that wind barrier locked because you could make reproducus over ride the zombie type I to winged beast and make simorgh to summon barrier 😂

@@totallynotareptilian3453 When Chaosruler, Halq, Scythe were legal... With one ze-amin, I was able to Scythe lock my opponent, depending on the mills, have Balerdroch, Rivalry-ZW lock, etc.

@@koni_yt I was doing that type of evil shit with pure, but I swapped decks because it just couldn't keep up

Look at zombies in master duel. Zombies absolutely have enough interruptions and extenders (mezuki isn’t once per turn?!), what they lack is starters, things that fill the grave, ways to live after your normal summon is negated.

@@aethersomeuni-zombie and Gozuki are the mainline starters. Unfortunately they don’t do much by themselves tho.

At this point, I am convinced there is a punk line to do anything you could ever want. If Last Turn was legal, I'm sure there would be a punk line to make it work turn 1 every time.

Using Punks to go into AFD and then Baronne after pivoting field spells is unironically one of my favorite things

The other really interesting part of the extended punk line is that you dig so deep in any direction. My favorite thing to do is in vw punk which goes through the punk line with the field spell to ultimate search lulu and either drawing a gate or zombie vampiring to make a gate

​@@pablorosada9788When you can summon Bish off a single E-Tele, there is nothing you can't do. You just have to find the right architeype to pair it with

punks can let inzektor ftk

This is a lot closer to what I was looking for. Really want to play with the new zombie stuff, but the PUNK engine just doesn't look my speed.

I'd really love a version of the deck that focuses on midrange and consistency options instead of pushing the endboard, but that seems like its biggest strength.

@@fortidogi8620 It seems like it should be VERY possible, but there are so many zombies to read...

@@thighhighsox830 Its like, do I really want to sacrifice any one part of this line? And when you do, and you go to test it, *woops*, looks like the opponent had the one out that would have covered in the 1% chance of it coming up.

Maybe you just have to look at which punish hurts the least to allow? But whatever you pick could be a boardwipe or lethal depending on the matchup and meta. Man, I am NOT cut out for deckbuilding.

While I like his content and his insight, I don’t think he’s a great deck builder

Decks nowadays either lock or put 15+ negates. If you want to put 15+ negates, just play something else.

@@UrabraskYGO you know if you hate fun, you can say so

​​@@UrabraskYGO..no they don't all do that? They lock you, or have like 1-2 negates and n-number of other interactions that you must painstakingly account for. Like yes, the most popular decks are the ones that turn your opponent off, fucking side-deck feels relegated to that with some of the choices I've seen as of late, but there's also a bunch of other decks that just bet on being able to grind you down with a resource loop that usually let you play but makes it so you can't get cards to stick to the field. Without them all being negation.

@@jamaaldagreatest2748 except MBT doesn't build all his decks. Some he has gotten from people who are known players of said deck. This deck originally came from a dude named Spenstar

that would be such a cool bit to do

He should have, yeah. What he detaches first is irrelevant, so he might as well keep Garura for later

Um I’m also a theater kid, the falling over at the end was my idea and it caught Joseph off guard

The assault synchron stuff sounds neat. And the second part...I mean, tearlament cope, but regardless it sounds way more interesting than locking your opponent out with krystia anyways. Though with extra deck space being tight I guess it might not be that viable.

Uni Zombie and Shiranui Solitaire?

@@gowiththeflow363 I think they mean starter that doesn't take the normal summon. Either that or they mean free extender, Lord knows we need some

yeah apparently i deleted the word 'normal summon' somewhere. But even without it, Unizombie is an unironic inferior version to Punk's starter for zombies.

They play Diabolantis???

losing Chaos Ruler and Halq at the same time destroyed the deck. Konami hates Zombie players so much :/

​@@buddbrown4910and I personally hate both cards for enabling so many degenerate stuff by being so exceedingly generic (don't even play Chaos Ruler in MD RN because of that, and waiting for it to hopefully be banned). Sorry if by proxy that makes me hate zombie players.

Spell canceler would mess with Doomkings effects as well as Red Eyes

@@thaaqibabrahams4095 this is true, but it still might be worth doing if you're going up against something like Striker or runick

@@vergilrules1616 fair point, I guess it depends what negates you value more for the specific match up. Punk Ghost Zombies are really testing my deck building patience, the deck has too little space for going 2nd and somehow needs all that space to play enough bricks to build a chimney. I think zombies need something more. As it is now, the best version of this deck can put up a decent end board, but the combo is way too fragile, and there's almost zero follow up if your board gets cracked. Also going 2nd is almost nonexistent. Its below rogue in this state and I'm mad about it lol

Oh I completely understand that view. I've been playing combo zombies since before uni zombie got released. And that's been their problem for a long time. Best thing I can recommend is that if you can't find a reliant one to two card combo, to just shove as many extenders into the deck as possible. My goal was always if I can't stop you from setting up your ideal board, I'm just going to play enough extenders that I can play through it. So I've never played hand traps in zombies really. And it's actually that mentality that I don't play hand traps in like 70% of my decks, although I've gotten a lot better about it in the recent years.

@@vergilrules1616 I haven't played handtraps in my zombies either, its always been go with gas or go home, but it just rubs me the wrong way that a deck with space for bricks but none for handtraps or going 2nd options is the symptom of a fragile combo deck where there's more fragile than combo lol. Its a weird place to be, because Punks in a vacuum are just a great addition to any deck, and the new Ghost fusion stuff is a good extension, but core problem seems to be that zombies need a starter that doesn't take up the normal summon, or a normal summon that's better than the ash magnet that is uni-zombie. The deck was at its height when halq was alive, and that's just showing me how little zombie is in almost every version of a zombie deck. Shiranuis and Skull servants are like bottom of the barrel haha, and Mayakashis and Vendreads are six feet under that barrel. Vampires seem okay I guess, but they're missing something too. Zombie World really stunted the growth of zombies as a type, because now all cards released are either some random way to interact with it, or just wack zombie support. Eldlich is the closest zombies got to greatness, and that's sad because Eldlich is only really a zombie deck by technicality. Once Konami realizes that not all zombie cards need the field spell, maybe we'll actually get a meta-relevant archetype, instead of more generic half-assed support lol. Anyways reveal Nessie, chain link 2 E-telly

It more of makes up for losing Chaos Ruler (in that you can banish Changshi again and get the revive plus foolish) and if you run Assault Synchron you can make room for Darkrage Dragon for a mill 5. That said, zombies are always a good rogue or anti meta option... unless the meta is stuff like Kashtira. Due to Konami's fear of giving more than 2 good zombie cards a year that usually just replace a generic card, the deck is always rogue.

Eh, their effects are mid if they get splashed into zombies. Changshi is the best target by far, 2nd best is Wyvern for the Bloom send into DK in end phase
