Now, this was a good treat of duel for us this week! It was surprising to see the two of you decided to play the HERO SD and Blue-Eyes SD as they are from the box. Guess we will have some HERO vs Blue-Eyes content for the forthcoming week. I say you did pretty great playing the HERO SD despite all the shortcomings. As you said, Alex's Blue-Eyes SD has better cards and better offensive pushes compared to your HERO SD and it kinda reminds me the old Yuga and Luke's SD way back from early era of RD's dynamic. I think you two did pretty well in this showcase, with the exception of Alex dominating the 1st round by having Blue-Eyes early on. Ngl, I kinda dig this style of highlander-style of duel like this once in a blue moon. This really feels like an anime-style duel because you two are forced with only one or two copies of cards in your possession. I lowkey love this kind of duel because you get to experience what the duelist had gone through in the anime with their scarce copies of cards. If I may make suggestion, maybe you and Alex can try this kind of duel on special occasion. For example, when Go Rush ends maybe next year and the ceremonial duel will Yudias vs Yuhi, you and Alex may try to duel with this highlander with their decks. So because Yudias only play 1 Oblivion you can only use that card as single in the deck, same as with Yuhi's monsters, Spell, Traps; with the exception of vanillas that they do have multiples copies like Tamabots and Interstellimes. But again, that's just my humble opinions and I don't mean every time and every week you and Alex must play highlander like this. Maybe for some occasional milestones of the channels or big moments in the anime are the best moments where you can make some variations in the duels. Still, this was a blast of duel to watch and can't wait for the next couple of weeks showcasing the HERO decks even more. Hopefully, Alex might get some wins again to catchup the lost victories from the last couple of weeks! I'm always rooting for Alex in this channel but don't get discouraged and keep doing your best in the videos!

About Rush's Blue-Eyes, the Deck still has a powerful core, but the days of Nostalgia are long gone. Currently, the Deck cannot compete much with the Meta, considered a Rogue Deck by many players. It's still frustrating to face, but many Monsters and Cards have come out that control Rush's Blue-Eyes well. Therefore, Rush's Blue-Eyes needs to be renewed or it will remain stagnant forever (as happened with Dragon Decks in Early Rush Duels). Of course, the existence of Rush's Blue-Eyes in the Meta means that Praime Dwarf will continue to bully the Deck. PS: Speaking of Praime Dwarf, the recent Episode not only brings more support for Dark Matter (this is obvious), but out of nowhere, we have more Praime cards. - Dark Matter brought a handful of cards that help facilitate bringing Dark Matter Enigmata to the Field, as well as give it direct support to improve that Fusion Monster. The most relevant thing is that they unveiled a new Fusion Monster that can acquire/change its name to "Dark Matter Enigmata" and take advantage of all the support focused on Enigmata. - Praime brought with it many new tools: that includes a Beast-Warrior member in Shiva, a Field Spell to support the Deck's trick with Tributes, a pretty good Trap Card (with Big Bluefin as representative) and, most importantly, the Beast member in White Panda received an update: it is now a Monster that allows you to change the Attribute of your Opponent's Monsters to LIGHT Attribute (increasing the efficiency of Praime Dwarf)

Oh boy. Here comes the full weeks of pure Elemental HERO variants. In fact, despite only coming out these days, this Elemental HERO's Structure has already led to many variants being created: - Skysavior Elemental HERO - Pure Elemental HERO - Music Princess Elemental HERO - Good Warrior Stuff + Elemental HERO In fact, the Pure and Music Princess version has had good results for Japanese players. Elemental Circulation is broken and easily abused if you have an Elemental HERO's Engine. Miracle Fusion is always nice to have and helps the Deck quite a bit with being a competent Fusion Deck. Lastly, Skyscraper became a very important card in these Decks when it was a mediocre or bad card in the OCG/TCG. In itself, this Structure gives you everything you need to create a competent Elemental HERO Deck if you buy three Structures (something similar happens with Blue-Eyes, where you will only have the competent version of the Deck when you buy three Structures). Not to mention valuable reprints that several players want to have. Of course, it is guaranteed that Elemental HERO Deck will improve a lot with Contact Fusion and the new members for Rising HERO.

Great video the structure deck has promise but definitely needs work. By the way I was recently playing dawn of the battle royale let's go and I found it a little more fun than rush duel in duel links but at the same time it skills help maximum monsters in a great way but the battle royale reminds me why it better for rush to 8000 life points than 6000 in duel links any thoughts on which you would prefer?

I think 6k makes sense from konami's point of view since they want games to be quick (the primary target audience for any mobile game is going to be the Japanese community commuting) but there are so many OTK or OTK-adjacent decks in Rush that 6k just feels too low. Overlord is just the first of many decks that will probably cause some issues going forward.

Maybe limited) or Selection Box - Hardefense Mission: Box Card (SR) - Crisis at the Sacred Tower: Box Card (UR. Maybe limited) or Selection Box - Ancient Barrier: Box Card (R or SR) - Magical Stone Excavation: Bundle (limited to 1) - Word Working: Box Card (SR) - Back Beat: Box Card (SR) - Prison Island - Cell Block 5 & 6: Box Card (R or SR. Maybe limited) or as a Level Up reward (single copy like Romanpick) - Dark Revelation: Box Card (UR) or as Selection Box - Grand Extreme: Box Card (SR) or as Selection Box - Pureglass Spears: Box Card (UR) or as Selection Box - Secret Order: Box Card (SR.

Ah, Staples in Rush Duels. Some love them and some hate them (especially if your mediocre Deck can't beat Meta Decks: things as they are) - Rising Light Angel Essel is the first case where a Monster that was not a Staple became a full-fledged Staple in another format (in this case, Rush's Duel Links). Although well, I don't know if that is also a sign that Konami has refused to give us the good Early Rush Duels cards. - Legend Magician and Legend Strike were also the reason why it was again preferred to carry Legend Normal Monsters (which had been largely forgotten) in various Decks. It is also believed that Legend Strike is the reason why we have the OG Magnet Warrior and Elemental HEROs as Normal Monsters without Legend status. But well, Legend Magician will return with force since it has been confirmed that he will receive a Deck of her own. - Barrier Statue of the Inferno and Mad Rare Aquila, ironically, had the role of weakening Excutie Deck until Excutie Decks themselves started using those cards as well. Barrier Statue of the Inferno was also seen as a controversial ban since Fusion Summon was out of control at the time and Barrier Statue was the only viable way to control those Fusion Decks (Decks that didn't have Fusion were at a huge disadvantage) - Ship of Seven Treasures only became stronger with the arrival of the Deity of Seven Treasures Monsters: which functioned as alternative Boss Monsters that you could carry if your Deck used Ship of Seven Treasures. Many believe that Ship of Seven Treasures will be limited at some point due to this interaction. - Grand Extreme was the reason why Sea Serpent Maximum Deck was so powerful at the time. Likewise, Fish Decks also benefit a lot from that Spell Card. On the other hand, Pureglass Spears was good enough to build a Deck around it: a Deck focused on Monsters that attack many times like Dragias and Mad Rare Aquila. - Gate Order Meta is the only Meta that can be said to have Normal Monsters surpassing Maximum and Fusion Monsters. It was here we also got to see the only competitive version of Noodle Deck in the Rush Duels format: which was basically a bunch of Normal Monsters focused on FIRE attribute. I feel that the following cards were not mentioned as Staples or that they were Staples for certain periods: - Multistrike Dragon Dragias: The quintessential Boss Monster's Staple. Basically, you can put this Boss Monster in any Deck and it will work or help you. It was used in so many Decks during SEVENS and GO RUSH that explaining all the variants would take time. - Rhythmical Performer: Semi-Staple Monster that was used in several Decks in different periods of Rush's Meta. - Heel Healer: Another Galactica Jamais Vu-style Monster. Less used, but still used due to the advantage of returning a Spell Card to the Deck. Cards that are/were Staples that should be discussed in a future video: - Deity of Seven Treasures - Ryozai - Praime Dwarf - Shiny Shady - Ciela the Skysavior Knight - Sunset Rebirth - Animagica Witch

Harddefense is really cool. I made a custom Rush Duel format with friends based around creating customs of Master format cards to be reinterpreted with Rush design philosophy, and we retrained Mirror Force to be Harddefense for 2600+ attackers. The whole format revolves around whether or not its worth it to boost past the golden standard 2500 stat, and when the Limited copy of it is used/milled, go crazy. Harddefense, being 100 atk less than that, would change how Rush Links is played entirely. I think debuff skills would, funny enough, be even more stronger than they are now. Also, a cool thing about Torero’s application is not only could it help take out aces like you mentioned, but was a very strong choice against Barrier Statue. I remember Aura from the Rush anime Entamesubs team teching it in for their Secret Investigators deck in a tournament and doing well with it bc the deck would mill early and get a way to out the Statue going second

Ok, I also think we will have a Super Mini Box or another Mini Box in the next few weeks. Either way, I suppose they will extend all the time necessary to then release Fusion Summon at full potential. - I feel like even Asana's Event itself made it clear that Constructor Sky Wyrm Gantry Dragon is sure to come at some point, but we will get it early. However, with Constructor Demolisher Wyrm Drake Crush I have doubts since I can see it used for Asana's Rerun as a reward (if it is not in the Box, it will be a free reward). I also feel that, in a few months, they might give us Constructor Arsenal Wyrmyard (a card from GO RUSH Era) in a Box since I feel that Field Spell is intended to be brought to Rush's Duel Links. - It is certain that we will have something for EARTH Machine in the Box. Perhaps my surprise is that we don't have Scoop Pitman's Deck despite it being one of the first Decks that came out in Rush Duels. I highly doubt that Fusion Summon will help the Deck since I feel like that Deck has problems that only a good Skill can solve. Although I feel that the best Buff for EARTH Machine Deck is to remove the 3 limit on Shield Boring Kong. - Honestly, I'm a little scared of how Pigeon Burn Deck can bring chaos to Rush's Duel Links just because of the Burn Damage. Let's just say that Pigeon Burn has had a resurgence in the last month as we have very good Trap Cards currently that take advantage of the Boss Monster. Counter Cannonball would be annoying in Rush's Duel Links and not only will it get worse when we have Wicked Shadow Dark Lurker or the Burn variant that Jointech used. Still, I feel that Winged Beast's support would be more support for Rush's Harpie than anything else (Rush's Harpie needs something to improve its current condition). And well it's funny that, in the Rush Duels format, it is normal to receive 3000 Burn Damage or gain more than 2500 LP. - Aqua Deck needs its Backrow urgently to have any chance of being Meta. There are good Spell/Trap Cards that would help the Deck a lot. I feel like if Konami wants to make Aqua Deck a Meta contender, they need to release Mother's Rain: the Spell Card that works as an Anti-Machine Deck. If Machine Deck doesn't go away in the long run, at least give Aqua Deck that Spell Card so it has a niche when facing Machine Decks. In any case, it would be good to have better Skills for Mimi since Aqua Deck will not improve in the long term (not even in GO RUSH Era) - So far, I'm surprised that Nail's minions haven't received any treatment for their Decks. I think the same will happen with the FIRE Pyro Deck and Ant Deck: they will not be printed or receive the Beast Gear treatment (that is, put them as Card Traders or to trade with Tickets). The only Decks that I can see Konami wanting commercially in the future are Chair and Cat Deck. I also feel like it's time to give us some Music Princess's cards if they don't plan on bringing Tiger as a Playable Character. PS: Did you hear the news that the Chinese Version of Duel Links plans to introduce Rush Duels in a rather curious way (and that it should have been that way from the beginning)? Basically, its own Server, with its own Coins and Gems (as well as being able to exchange Coins for Gems)

Based on future support, I imagine you'll say Raidacross or Lightning Voltcondor, but are there any sleeper picks? If I hadn't known about future support from you, I would have just clicked Rightful or something else and not thought another second about it, so thank you.

We might not see Voltcondor support for years yet, or Konami could just drop it next week who even knows! Raidacross' fusion should be one of the first fusions to release so that "should" be playable sooner, but even that deck was never anything special in the physical game.

Now that’s quite a feast of a finale before the forthcoming of HERO Structure deck videos later. This was the kind of CD Extra that I was hoping for you and Alex to bring forth, with you lending Alex your Jointech Rex to fully utilize Hybridrive package and Alex lending you the Dark Matter deck for a spin. This was honestly a really exciting episode with you screwing Alex up with Compulse on his Fusion monster in the 1st round but Alex made a payback in the 2nd round by finishing you off with Magic Cylinder. If it were not for some bricking in the 3rd round, I think this might be one of the best CD Duels that I’ve watched with just sheer back-and-forth and some teeth-gritting moments. Once again, thanks for the two of you lovely people to bring this CD Duels up in the net. I won’t say too much regarding about your two decks because I think brunosanto and even a new commenter that I saw, Ryo-kun, has splendidly covered up the strength and weakness of Dark Matter and Hybridrive Machine Dragon deck. I think as you two have experienced in this duel, these two decks really have some many practicality problems once you started playing around with it. As you said about the Dark Matter deck, the deck can’t quite push for game because it relies on setting your monsters in face-down, thus cutting your offensive push. You also experienced how face-down monsters also not to give some rooms for your further plays in the next several turns. Once you play around this deck, you may realize how annoying the Dark Matter deck not just for your opponent, but it also annoys you as a player with how not flexible the gameplay is. Alex’s Hybridrive deck also suffers quite the same problem but it revolves around filtering your GYs by sending dan returning cards from it. The deck feels more like a high-roll deck once you set up the GYs but in early game where you haven’t filtered your GYs, the deck feels not so impressive at all. Not to mention, the fact that Hybridrive Back Fusion is just very impractical to use and I’m glad Alex knew about this and decide to use Jointech Joint as more simpler Fusion card. I think the deck really needs even more ways to mill your decks at a large amount, cards like Dymanaraja from the anime would be helpful but even that needs some preparations. Again, the Hybridrive deck feels so impractical on play because it relies heavily on your GY, something that your opponent can meddle with with cards like Backbeat, etc., and I feel the deck’s learning curve is pretty high too. PS: It’s also a nice coincidence that you uploaded this CD Duel this week because Yuhi did end up dueling against a variation of Dark Matter in this week’s episode, though this was more of a reference to Yuhi vs Sabyuas, who ironically the user of Hybridrive deck won in that duel.

On the other hand, Dark Matter has the peculiarity of being a Fusion Deck that will easily bring to the heart of the Deck: Dark Matter Enigmata. In fact, it is quite common to end up with Dark Matter Enigmata on the Field. Dark Matter also has the variety of Monsters that can be had in the Deck to face any situation (it is one of the few Decks with a Monster that prevents the activation of Trap Cards during the Battle Phase) The only bad thing is that it depends a lot on Fusion Summon to work. Not to mention that the Deck does not have good Spell/Trap Cards currently and relies on generic support for DARK Galaxy. Not to mention that the face-down card trick can be used against the Deck (I've seen that they wanted Dark Matter to be a Flip Summon Deck, but I think that would make it a much worse Deck) The Deck lacks support which, luckily, it will get in future packs. It is very likely that the Dark Matter variant that uses Contact Fusion and Level 7 Monsters requires another way to play, but that is already a plus for the Deck since it gives versatility when building the Deck (not to mention that there is a lot of support Anime for Dark Matter that would do wonders for the Deck)

- Omega Voyager's effect is to revive 2 contact fused vanillas. - Deadcheer doesn't proc Wyvern. - King Circle's boost nullifies Ocean's damage reflection. The cards actively stomp on each other, regardless of new support or anime support. At this point I'm so convinced Dark Matter is a lost cause, a failed experiment that should luckily be canned if not for anime involvement. The deck not only tries to do everything at once which is a recipe for disaster, but also there are playstyle clashes thanks to anime splitting the deck for 5-6 characters. Rush isn't at the point where an archetype can be so big characters can make certain aspects into separate decks. The requirement of having face-down monsters gimps the deck's ability to play through Traps and be on the offensive side, and the deck is completely reliant on its Fusions to do anything. Contact Fusion does help, but not when those monsters don't help Enigmata also. Parallel Pod and Mimic help with the deck's consistency, but the ceiling is so low, unlike Velgr which can highroll Chrysaor or Gigantomachia.

@@Ryo-kun I'm surprised you put Voidvelgr high when it's also a lost cause since this Deck could never be Meta at any point in its history until now. Voidvelgr has much more obvious problems than Dark Matter despite having a clear strategy: being a Beatdown Deck. The Brick problem, many high Level Monsters in the Deck, do not have good draw power, rely on Fusion to get Powerful Monsters, etc. Ironically, Voidvelgr and Dark Matter are most successful when they work together. However, I think it is very likely that the Level 7 variant of Dark Matter will end up being the most competitive and consistent (This is because Level 7 in Rush Duels is blessed with a lot of support and you don't depend much on Dark Matter Enigmata to win)

@@brunosanto3488 I think the reason why Voidvelg deck can’t quite reach the meta easily because the deck leans to heavily on being a beatdown or aggressive deck. With the current ever-evolving meta, having a deck that just hits hard and aggressive in offense is just not enough to push for the game. As Ryo-kun said, the highroll of Voidvelg deck is big but it leaves the deck felt completely one-dimensional, something like Luke’s Dragon deck was back in the early time of Rush Duel. Back then, we don’t have powerful Spells, Traps or Monsters that clearly punish decks that were aggressive in play. Nowadays, we have cards that can stop your highroll, attacks, fortifying defense, destroying the field on your turns, etc. The Voidvelg deck which just focuses on pure offense just can’t keep up with the meta like this. Even their other strategy, the Dark Hole focus strategy, is now less impressive because we have cards like Ryozai that protects your cards, Sunset Rebirth which counters Dark Hole, or just monsters with innate protection effects. I still think Voidvelg deck is overall a solid deck but you can clearly see this is not going to hold up the test of time with the current meta. Most of the cards are also spread in multiple packs, unlike decks like Secret Investigators or Fish Fusion deck which core engines were in a single product, making the Voidvelg deck is much more expensive and less practical to build.

It's funny that in the last Episode we have just Hybridrive vs a variant of Dark Matter and you could see the Effect of Hybridrive Screwdriver being too annoying and can prevent bringing another Fusion Monster of the same name. However.... Hybridrive: Screwdriver's Effect left you without Fusion Summon. You are done! You will lose! Dark Matter: Nah I'd Win. (Proceeds to bring another Fusion Monster) Speaking of Hybridrive, this Deck has three problems from what I've seen: 1) It has a weird Machine-Dragon combo. 2) Requires you to carry a lot of Level 7 Monsters (where Fusion Monsters are not worth spending much resources on). 3) It requires a lot of preparation for the GY since the Effects that Monsters have cost a lot of resources for something so simple. It doesn't help either that there are so many good Machine-Dragon cards that it is not possible to carry everything since Hybridrive has a main core that is difficult to replace (and, in any case, it would be better to just play a pure Machine or Dragon Deck) Of course, praise that Hybridrive Screwdriver does not have a simple requirement or is easy to bring to the Field. Screwdriver's Master Duels-worthy Floodgate Effect would be much more annoying or frustrating if it were easy to bring to the Field: it's like a Yamiterasu the Divine Ruler in that regard. Despite this, Hybridrive Screwdriver is the highlight of the Deck and makes it a thousand times better than Jointech/High Tech Dragon. Still, Hybridrive needs dedicated support for the Machine-Dragon combination. PS: Speaking of Hybridrive, the Anime finally showed us the first exclusive cards to specifically help that Deck. - Hybridrive Cycle is simply a God level Spell Card for the Deck as it helps a lot with the consistency of the Deck. - Hybridrive Repair and Hybridrive Blaster make a good combo, but I doubt you'll want to put Equip Spells into the Deck. - Hybridrive Shutter can prevent your Opponent from making plays or combos with their Low Level Monsters.

Hybridrive is best played as supplement for other Machine decks. The problem of Machine-Dragon hybrid is circumvented by simply playing 3 Tusk, 3 Lizard, 1 Scale and any number of Screwdriver. It's not that Jointech Rex + Blue Tooth fusions aren't good but Hybridrive Back Fusion is too costly to use as a card (it is even unusable against Maximum). Honestly I am more angry at the anime team for showcasing Hybridrive as a 2022 deck because Yuhi is treating the Hybridrive monsters as tribute fodders or milled cards. His deck is so unoptimized it is making Velgr, a notoriously bricky mess, looks like a genuine threat. Hybridrive Cycle depletes your resources to do something Sevens Treasures can already help with: Consistency. Hybridrive Repair is winmore, you don't run Equips in a deck with heavy resource use already. Hybridrive Blaster is just another case of ORR Traps outshining any form of Equips (The main reason why I despise MODERN Rush). Hybridrive Shutter is so situationally bad I can't believe Yuhi actually runs it. Had he run another Bumper instead of that Trap, he would have won. Most of the time this Trap can be used when a Level 4- monster activates its effect... In which it is already too late for this Trap to do anything worthwhile. Hybridrive is a good deck, and I was having high hopes seeing Yuhi using the Deck (alongside Dark Matter, but my disappointment seeing anime showcase of it is immeasurable). Well, I guess the anime is afraid of another Salad syndrome where the Duel is completely in Yuhi's control because of the complex nature Hybridrive brings.

@@Ryo-kun Nah. Hybridrive does not have a Salad level since it does not search its cards for each other and does not have good game tracking due to the excessive cost they ask for to activate Effects. To be honest, Hybridrive is a decent Deck, but it's not good for the Meta (for some reason, it's not considered a Meta Deck by Japanese players when they made their Tier List a few days ago). However, Hybridrive is still a direct improvement over Jointech and High Tech Dragon (but not a huge achievement)

@@Ryo-kun I think the Hybridrive deck suffers from Konami’s way of releasing new type of decks in a pack before slowly supporting the deck with cards released on the next few packs down the line. The first time I saw Hybridrive deck, I always feel the deck is missing something. The deck felt more like a supporting beam for Jointech and Hightech deck which was a shamble of mess, prior to Hybridrive’s arrival. Because of this, the deck can’t stand on its own. I really wish we have more cards that cover Hybridrive’s playstyle, maybe some Fusions for Screwdriver or every single Spells/Traps that you two gentlemen have said. Knowing how Konami handle things, I can see they might put some few Hybridrive’s cards here and there along with Go Rush’s airing.

@@brunosanto3488 I’ve played several games using this Hybridrive deck and I must say the deck feels quite impractical or annoying to use at times. There are times where I have cards for late game, like Hybridrive Back Fusion and Hybridrive Bumper, in the early game which brick my hand. Other times, you need to be conscious how what cards are in your GY because you can miss HBF’s effects if accidentally shuffle back Rex or Bluetooth back in the deck. Constantly milling and shuffling back cards from the GY doesn’t sound as easy as it might seem. I still think the deck has quite a solid piece of engines with the low-level monsters, but again, the deck needs some high-roll or warming up in the GY before having an explosive play. Case in point, to fully summon and utilize Bluetech Burst Rex’s effects with HBF, you need at minimum 9 monsters in the GY, 4 for HBF, 2 for Rex and Bluetooth wonder Fusion, and 3 for the Bluetech Burst Rex’s effects. Considering how much of a preparation this, I guess it’s no wonder why the deck lacks representative in the meta; it’s just too much of a hassle to play with because the constant control of your deck and GY might be tiresome to play.
