whenever i see retards dismissing good cards because "it's not a 1 card combo" i smirk a little.
dracotail has 0 in engine 1 card combos and yet it puts your favorite deck to shame.
stop being a retard and learn how to evaluate cards.

Ah yes the great cope play of making Shangri-Ira, set 1 and pray your Opp doesn't have a starter + follow up into a board that you can't break or any kind of double pop.
Are you fucking retarded?

>Yeah, this deck isnt going to be meta out of the pack unlike Yummy
>I believe it will be. Can use loads of handtraps, add them back to hand and reuse them, while also not playing into the bug and charmies as much as Yummies.
>Both will be super strong.
>I disagree, dragon tail just isn't consistent enough to be tier 1 or 2 upon release. The grind game is good, but the deck loses to handtraps more than yummy does, is way less consistent, and really does not play into charmies any better than Yummy. It is better at playing into maxx C, but the effect of maxx c on deck power is always over-exaggerated. The deck has hypothetical turn 0 plays, but they'll happen so rarely that it doesn't really matter. Dragon tail struggles to extend past its normal if it's negated, or if the fusion gets ashed, while Yummy is mostly extenders and can almost always play through two or more hand traps. And in terms of non-engine, Yummy has way more space due to better 1 card combos and a leaner engine.
>>
it's really funny going back and reading the reactions to jush, the usual retards ALL dismissed dracotail because "it doesn't have 1 cards" and "the ceiling it's too low" or "the deck is too fair, grindgame doesn't matter when duels end in 2 turns"
never dismiss a card or a deck because of your narrow minded and short sighted value system of "if it's not a 1 card combo then it's worthless"

I don't know what's required for the deck. Assuming there's no more hits, is this what I should be aiming for?
Also,
>7 DARK
>7 FIRE
>8 EARTH
As for the 10 other cards... do I need to consider the ratio of fire, dark and earth monsters? What should I prefer? I'm assuming fire because Hollie Sue (special summon effect) and Jiaolong (search effect) both need it, but I could be wrong.

>>556016970
you forgot lupis, your izuna doesn't do anything without him, lupis is a mendatory 1 off, you can play more but that's up to personal preference, the guy who won ycs bologna was on 3 lupis despite everyone else only running 1.

Surprised they brought the Borreload support so early(even before the TCG). By usual standards it's about 2-3 months early. The junk warrior retrain from the structure deck is also a surprise.
Them delaying VS + saving K9 for last was expected as this is likely MD's next tier0 deck. And I guess the live twin support is only their to be in a collection bundle
>>
>>556018757
it's cool when stuff releases early but i hate how they keep stuff in the basement.
vanquish soul fans didn't get that timeframe they should have had where pure vanquish soul would be good, now they have to suffer because of k9
>>
>>
>>556018757
>tier0
Not really. Tier 1? Yes. Tier 0? No.
It's hit compared to dracotail so we won't experience it at full power like TCG/OCG.
The hits don't kill them deck, but they hurt it because despite Hollie Sue being the broken card with turn 0 plays, you have 3 less good cards (Razen, Jiaolong, Stake are all semi-limited).
>>
>>556016949
I keep track of reveals and I remember most people hyping yummy as the next best deck, while believing that dracotail was a close second because arthalion and faimena were ridiculous. No one cared much for k9 outside of being able to splash izuna as a handtrap until vanquish soul got their broken support that synergized well with it.
Sounds like revisionist history or dracotail players downplaying their deck.

>Sounds like revisionist history or dracotail players downplaying their deck.
the post above the one your responded too quotes comments from that time, if you want i can share a few reddit comments from the timeframe of their reveals, all jerking yummy because 1 card combo and dooming dracotail because it's too fair and grindgame doesn't matter in yugioh

Funny how they both delay decks in high demand and forget the deck that dont have enough if it. Im looking forward to radiant typhoon and R.B. that were from DOOD, but they likely wont be in the game til spring.

I forgot about the preemptive hit they got. I really hate how they arbitrarily release some archetype with bans. Both the TCG/OCG release everything at full power and limit them after.

the dracotail dominating the ocg is not the same one that master duel got, maliss dominated md after dracotail's release.
dracotail never dominated the tcg, the most dominant deck there was mitsu yummy.
dracotail is healthy, it's not like maliss
>>
>>
>>556020768
Draco on release in paper was hard fed on by VSK9. It was good but was arguably the third best in the triangle format until they did some hits to K9. MDs only real issue is releasing draco without K9 to balance them out in due time. Better late than never really we're finally getting their natural predators. Now yummy might rise again even

if it follows previous legacy release patterns and comes out with future support (onomatokage/alfred) and has breachborrel in this set, they can snipe 1 alba lenatus during their turn 1 now, not sure what branded lists are like these days, you can still technically super poly albaz into a mirrorjade but yea set and nom isn't as realistic anymore

if it comes out with the blazing dominion link 2 borrel, they make that early, get a counter trap/extender, summon this, target and snipe your ed and keep link climbing since the link 2 replaces with another body, also turns on dis pater very early so with some hands you can hard make dis pater before link climbing further to get a ht negate

I'd say only military police (except the firefighter corps) are bastards.
Civil police and federal highway police are kind of okay.
They won't put a gun on your head just because they didn't like you dating their daughters, or bring a gun while drinking at the bar, letting your children pick up your guns and bring them to schools... in short, a lot of things you shouldn't do with guns in a country where gun licenses and carrying permits are very, very fucking hard and/or expensive to get.
>>
>>
>>556028171
Its not too bad.
I do wish one of the little guys could get into a big guy.
Like if we had another eidos that could grab a big guy instead of getting you another tribute summon so you could pick which effect you want more based off what you need. Or ideally do both, but that might be a bit too strong.

What kind of board are you making that it cannot remove a single monster over two turns and also can't stop any effects from going through and still for some reason cares about its cards being turned off?
There's no way this shit is ever happening in a real game against anything that would actually be threatening.

win the coinflip, then don't use effects in the grave or hand, at least not before setting up protection.
if you lose the coinflip then lol, it's an ignorant deck, as ignorant as maliss or onomat ryzeal, if you go second then you have 90% chances of losing no matter what deck you play or what you have in hand
>>
>>
>>556034348
...holy shit
then i guess against dracotail you're better off not SUCCing to leave it untargetable, and either rank up asap to make it immune to pan, or just attempt to go to battle phase (as vanilla nash) to force on-field mululu effect
mululu in hand is a bit harder to handle tho, but even in that case, this guy still eats a fuse+mululu negate

>>556041083
are we really at the point where people assume that any effect in hand or grave equals an automatic loss?
they won't have izuna every game, and you should be equally worried about holly sue because she can jumpscare without you doing anything.
and even assuming they have izuna it's not always an automatic loss.
you shouldn't be worried about your archetype going first, you should be much more worried about going second, since izuna is retroactive, meaning if you DARE handtrap them they can just search izuna and rape you.
k9/vs is a very ignorant deck, meaning that it doesn't care about what you archetype you play or what hands you have, if it gets to play the game going first it wins an unholy amount of times.
you people will understand why k9/vs was butchered first among the justice hunter archetypes, you will beg to face dracotail again.
>>
>>556042843
because yummy going first can play comfortably without triggering izuna (unless you are a monkey that uses marshmao effect for no reason going first), and the yummy interruptions/herald are really powerful against an xyz deck like k9.
untargettable ty-phon isn't really all that, yummy can just run over him.
yummy doesn't auto-win against k9, but it has a much better match up than against dracotail.
>>
>>556042843
Yummy halfway gets folded by clockwork night, can't summon Snatchy and has to rely on their synchros only, not to speak of the lock on Snatchy which is preventing you from link climbing.
Meanwhile K9 has 0 locks(1 pseudo lock on 1 monster but you basically avoid by getting rid of your own monster).
>>556043245
>(Quick Effect): You can activate 1 of these effects, by revealing monster(s) in your hand with the listed Attribute(s);
>●EARTH & DARK: Take control of 1 monster your opponent controls with the lowest ATK (your choice, if tied) until the End Phase.
Lol that card should be limited to 2 or 1
>>
>>
>>556043245
even if k9vs is a cancer far worse than dracotail, I will never "beg to face dracotail"
fucking downplayers can't stop saying "this cancer is worse, so my cancer is ok"
since k9vs will likely get butchered quick just like irl, I'll likely still hate dracotail more since, like maliss, it will continue to live on like the cockroaches they are

delusional retard
fusion summoning 2+ monsters, recycling every material of one of those monsters and setting 3 common traps that do way too much for what they are on turn 1 is not "fair"
it wouldnt be as bad if it wasnt so consistent 90% of the time
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>556045739
none of what you mentionned is unfair, it's just good.
dracotails is fair, and it's easy to verify by looking at what actual unfair decks accomplish.
if even rogue decks like whiteforest can break a dracotail board, then it speaks volume about how fair it is.

>>556015964
Dracotail will eventually be nuked on the banlist into oblivion, worst case scenario it will continue to terrorize the entire game for 1+ year like Snake-Eyes did, best case is that they will be for around as long as Maliss was or a bit longer but shorter than Snake-Eyes... Which will most likely be the case since not only it released at full power but also Yubel and Blue-Eyes being back to full power and releasing archetype after archetype seems like a way of """balancing""" the game instead of hitting the deck.

don't forget that it's immune to everything outside of minor inconveniences
>b-but ash
you can stop 1 trap with ash, and only if you didn't use it on dracotail's brafu, the real brafu, or other searchers
you must draw 2 ash(1 for both turns) at minimum or 1 ash and a VERY good spell for ash to actually matter
maliss downplayers said the same thing, "b-but you can ash white binder" as if it is ever enough
I could go into why negates in the backrow are objectively one of the hardest card types to play around, but instead I'll tell you about dracotail's game plan in general
they fill their deck with a ton of hand traps, set up their board using those hand traps as material(not optimal, but noteworthy because of the next part), recycle those hand traps back to their hand, and next turn draw more hand traps because their deck can never be allowed to go minus(the reason ash works on them btw)
dracotail is exactly the same as maliss, drawing all the hand traps they could ever need, claiming their end board isn't actually that bad, and then crying about how they are being persecuted for being too fair
but at least maliss couldn't use those hand traps as a part of their set up AND recycle them

A fair and balanced deck would not be Tier 1
you can argue with me as much as you want, a deck that is objectively fair would not be good in a game like Yugioh

I have only ever used Edopro/Omega, to test upcoming decks. I remember you could set up an AI opponent playing Swordsoul that knew the basic combos so it was good for testing.
Been a while since I used it tho so idk if there's an AI for more modern decks.
>wait does k9 activate if you special summon from hand or does it clearly need to be an effect?
Nyo, Izuna doesn't trigger if you just summon like a Ryzeal/Kash card (summons that don't start a chain yadda yadda).

If the card doesn't state "While this card is in your hand" or "You can activate this card effect in your hand" it doesn't count.
Pic related isn't an effect, it's a summoning condition same why cards that state "Unaffected by other card effects" get fucked over by Kaijus.

Something like this.
It's basically speed running to get nibbed.
Opening Hand should be something like this:
>Psi-Beast + Senko + Unicorn, Fenrir or Orge in Hand(or Scareclaw + Kashtira Big Bang in hand)
>SS Kashtira monster (don't activate it's effect)
>NS Psi-Beast
>triggers Senko in hand
>Psi-Beast activates effect
>your Opp now has to decide if they want to deny you the Senko free body or wait for your Kashtira card to activate it's effect
>if they don't negate the Senko you will banish 1 Kashtira Monster from deck to make Psi-Beast Level 7 + SS Senko
>you have now 3 bodies on field + 1 Kashtira Monster that hasn't activated it's effect yet
>if they deny you the senko, you still have 2 Level 7 bodies on the field, one is a Kashtira monster, so you can at least make a shangri-Ira if the effect of the Kashtira monster gets negated
And depending which Kashtira body you have on the field, you can extend:
Unicorn -> get Birth to get the banished Kash body from Psi-beast's effect at the start of the turn OR get Theosis for a different body from deck
Fenrir -> get Riseheart -> SS Riseheart -> overlay Psi-beast + other Kashtira card on field into Shangri-Ira -> Activate Riseheart -> bala bla into Ariseheart
Orge -> get Kashtira Prepa -> overlay into Shangri-Ira
Imperm + Ash are still your biggest enemy.
Nib will eat you alive if you don't get birth in hand or from Unicorns effects.
There is a similar version but with DARK level 7 monsters.
Still bricky.

Also the senko has an pop from gy and works only with Baronne, if you don't play a banishment floodgate.
Which is basically:
>Senko in GY and Baronne(preferably after she used her negate) on field
>activate Senko from GY
>target Baronne
>reduce ATK of Baronne by 1,5k
>target a Opp's monster and pop it
>use Baronne's effect to shuffle her back in the ED and revive a monster from GY

You don't need to run Centurion right now, it's just that Auxila is a DARK Dragon that bridges into the Centurion stuff so it fits perfectly
And post-support I don't think people run it at all, you just don't have the ED space anymore because of all the new archetypal cards that are better

Most people just repeat what they hear and never put any real thought into things or bother to gather their own experience. That's why you constantly hear people who clearly have no idea how a deck works talk so confidently about them, or see so many proven rogue decks written off as impossible to do well with.
They'll just hear one small bit of info like "you should try to avoid enabling Izuna if you can help it" and come to the conclusion that VSK9 is unplayable in VSK9 format because you will LOSE if you play Jiaolong in your VSK9 deck thanks to other people playing VSK9.

>Pic related isn't an effect, it's a summoning condition
It is still an effect to summon because it's not a nomi monster. It's just not an activated effect which is what K9 cares about. This is largely just trivia because it will never matter in a real game, but there are a couple niche scenarios where it does.

>bad assault shit
The assault support looked really cool, then I looked up how people actually play it and it's just Double Stardust Assault Mode Turbo. Not too surprising in retrospect but disappointing. It's just a worse version of the double Blazar Centurion Endboard with a worse engine.
>>
honestly I'm curious if there's an archetype that is less make your opponent lose but more make your opponent regret playing you aka something really fucking stupid like limiting interactions but you don't actually have a win condition. just a bunch of making an unstoppable board + LP gain to the max and it's just constant LP gain each round that the few interactions your opponents can do, won't be enough to offset the amount of LP gain you're getting.

The answer is always just stun. Nobody's actually going to get upset over you gaining lifepoints and needing another turn or two to kill them. Nobody outside of completely new players are going to get upset that you played some awful deck with a long combo. They're either going to win because your deck is bad or immediately surrender because they realize they got sacked.
Stun actually does leave them with the chance to Draw The Out as you slowly beat them to death with 1k beaters but they probably will not and will have wasted their time.

The fact that they're pairing it with so many other good cards makes it look cheaper than anyone should've expected.
>Werewolf is taking up a slot as a 1-of
>VS field is likely a UR
>Kisikil Deal could also be one
>Ripper still has a chance of being UR
>Dragonlink likely will be getting another UR since their maindeck is all SR
I would've expected every 3-of to be a UR but with so many slots taken up I could easily see Case or Noroi being SR instead of UR.

But WHY do the werewolf policemen get stronger from effects in the hand/GY? Often the hand gets treated as heavens/sky and the GY as the underworld in Yugioh symbology but that doesn't make much sense here. If it were just the hand you could see it as being a full moon or if it was just the GY you could see it as being the night/dark

Just play Crooked Cook stall and choose not to add a win condition to bully the new players in Gold I guess. Everyone who's played the game more than a month has already encountered that deck though so they'll either have an out to your unstoppable board because just about nothing is truly unstoppable in this game, or they'll just quit.

Sorta. It's not a super easy deck but it's also not an especially difficult one to learn with the last two waves of support. It being a pendulum deck doesn't make it harder as long as you know the absolute basics of how pendulum summoning works.

>An Xyz Monster that has this card as material gains this effect. Your opponent cannot target this card with card effects.
Target protection isn't special. Impermanence isn't that high nowadays, only at 46.8%.
>During the Main Phase (Quick Effect): You can detach 2 materials from this card; attach 1 "Number" Xyz Monster from your Extra Deck to this card as material that has a number between "101" and "107" in its name, then you can attach 1 other face-up monster on the field to this card as material.
>You can detach 1 material from this card; Special Summon from your Extra Deck, 1 "Number" Xyz Monster that has a number between "101" and "107" in its name, using this face-up card you control as material.
>If this card has "Number 104: Masquerade" as an Xyz material, it gains this effect. Once per turn, during either player's turn, when a monster effect is activated on your opponent's side of the field: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; negate the activation, then you can send 1 random card from your opponent's hand to the Graveyard, and if you do, halve your opponent's Life Points.
Look at how complex it is to get Umbral Horror Masquerade off with it's effects.
>When your opponent activates a card or effect (Quick Effect): You can detach 1 material from this card, then activate this effect depending on whose turn it is; Yours: Banish up to 1 card each from your opponent's field and GY. Opponent's: Look at your opponent's hand and banish 1 card from it face-up, until the End Phase.
It doesn't banish face-down, and it's only temporarily. Also, it could provide advantage to meta decks such as Maliss.

The quickie lets you banish all your opponents cards from field and graveyard but I'm not sure whether you can do it on your opponent's turn. If so I could see a world where its part of your end board. Then again nobody uses Supernova so maybe I'm overrating the effect.

I know this isn't really a GOTCHA but I just played dracotails against raidraptors and he decided to play through two mulcharmy and I literally stopped his turn and cleared his board straight from turn 1.
that's a little bullshit desu haha, i mean fuck at least other mulcharmy you'd just infinite pieces or something but i straight out cleared his board before he could fully combo, that's fucked up
>>
>>
>>556084159
Dracotail is bullshit but that doesn't sound much different than stopping him with a Nib.
And he was probably giving you so many draws because he was either going to either floodgate you with Kali Yuga or put up several Rising Rebellion Falcon which most decks can't out no matter how many cards they have in hand. Raidraptors aren't that good but they're pretty bullshit themselves.

How do you define "fun" personally deck wise? Because lets be real, does anyone find just doing the same comboshit on first turn and autowin fun? I haven't experienced the game much but for me the peak of fun is when the deck is able to match its theme with the gameplay or card effects, like jurrac self destructing and just nuking the board. Other than that I like the little unusual weird things, like summoning something on your opponents field with sanctfire and then fusion summoning with albaz, or like making verte and sending brafu. Like I don't really like dracotail but those little things I like for some reason.

>>
>>556089445
For me, fun decks are a combination of
>fun turns(non-linear, not too long, room for skill expression)
>good versatility/toolboxing so you aren't commonly facing down impossible to deal with situations
>cool endboards(unique boss monsters, uncommon interactions)
>have a gameplay pattern that leads to engaging games instead of one-sided blowouts
>cool art+mechanics that work with the theme
>>
>>556089445
>How do you define "fun" personally deck wise
engine heavy deck, games I find fun are the ones where I go second with a full gas hand, let my opponent set up their board and I try to play through and there are no floodgates or handtraps (especially lingering) involved
problem is they're few and far between
>>
>>
>>
>>556089445
It's whatever I like whether it's a deck based on a monster I wanna bang or a deck with glorious art or a deck with a play style I like it ain't deep man. That being said it always amps the neurons when I destroy everything on the board at once so I tend to go that route. Dropping nibiru on a board full of monsters wanting to go further always feels good

K9 is a deck of werewolf police officers. It's a rank 5 deck so it makes rank 5s. The rank 5s are the werewolf forms of the officers, then they have quickplay spells that let you rank them up into their rank 9 forms where they go full monster mode.
They're also very good to support other decks with level 5s like Cydra, Crystron and what will be the most meta, VS.
Also they will take you to jail if you break the law by using a monster effect in hand/GY because their effects get stronger on turns the opponent does that. Izuna is especially noteworthy as a hand trap that can make a rank 5 turn 0 by sending Lupus to the GY.
Live Twin cards are both 1-ofs. Especially if you play fiendsmith since you can shuffle back the link. You could play more of Lilla Sweet but trying to use her as an anti-handtrap isn't reliable enough to be optimal.
VS wants 3 Holy Sue because she's a hand trap, and 1 field spell to turn Mad Love into a great starter.

Live Twin lore is that they're vtubers by day and gem-thieves by night. Lila handles the business side of things and designs the vtuber costumes while Kisikil does the 3D modeling of their avatars. Their streaming career was originally meant to be a way to explain their illicit income, but now it's causing some strife between them because Kisikil wants to focus on their career as thieves and Lilla wants to sellout as streamers.that's why lilla gets a maindeck livetwin and Kisikil gets an evil twin link 1
Sunny is a rival dramatuber who managed to expose the identity of the Evil Twins but hasn't discovered that they're also the live twins. Her partner Luna has been collabing with the live twins recently(Lilla-rap+called by the grave) so she may get a card in the future.
There's a bunch of small gameplay lore things, like Sunny's Snitch taking 200 LP from the opponent being like the viewers making small donations, or Sunny tagging out into the Twins because they're always avoiding her so they aren't on the field at the same time.
I wouldn't suggest the deck unless you're willing to play it with Fiendsmith. It's too low-impact otherwise.

at the very least it seems like they're gonna give Live Twin its own dedicated pack when the new stuff drops so it should be reasonably easier to get ahold of, the deck isn't very expensive aside from the other engines and even if the two new cards are both UR that won't change much since they're both one-ofs

Yeah but you need 4 fucking tuners for it and one of the needs to make the others level 1. From what I've seen/tested you can only summon it turn 1 and even then if the opponent has an interrupt you're fucked.

The other issue is that there's so many non-targetting ways to get rid of cards nowadays. If they just printed it to say unaffected by card effects it would have been fantastic. Give it 2-3 years and we will get Red Ultranova Dragon that requires 5 tuners.

Both Izuna and Start might be UR so there could be even more shit to pull besides Hollie Sue and Jokul. Not to mention I will have to craft other UR cards such as Saryuja.
And I don't even know if the deck will be as good as people say because it's already pre-hit.

Sounds nice, feels like every time they go first against me they always have at least 3 negates between the trap that becomes a monster, the counter trap, Baronne and/or Drillbeam (and all but 1 are basically omni-negates).

It'll BE better. Present tense. Not it'll be better than it was. I am saying it will be better in MD than it currently is in paper. People are still playing pure K9 a bit in the OCG with Jokull at 1 and Izuna at 2.

The anniversary event is in a day and a half so probably. There was a big jump in power creep when Tearlaments released but that's pretty much stopped. Current best decks are weaker than they've been for a while, and there's not really anything stronger slated to come out based on the OCG being 8 months ahead.
Whatever deck you have now is probably pretty far behind but that's probably fine for low ranks, and also newer structure decks are FAR better than the old ones and actually get you full decks.

That's not true for all of them. Raidraptor SD gives you two copies of the maindeck UR, the Resonator SD gives you 2 copies of the continuous and 1 of the maindeck UR which is often played at 2, and Dragonmaid only actually wants 2 of their URs.

I'd wait like 35 hours for the anniversary event. They're going to release a free Spright structure deck you can get if your account is less than a week old or you haven't touched it in more than a month. If you don't meet that criteria you have to get someone else(or yourself on an alt) to put in your referral code to get it.
Personally if I were on a new account I'd build Dragonmaids with the Structure Deck since for crafts it really only needs 1 copy of Ladys Dragonmaid. Especially as a new player, that deck is very simple to learn.

Every single non-official yugioh simulator is able to import YDK and YDKE files.
You don't even need to drag and drop, in all of them you can also copy and paste the file's contents (literal cardnames and/or passcodes) and it will work.
Yet you can't do it in Master Duel for some reason.
Dude, everyone except you does it. Everyone knows how to do it. It's documented how to do it.

"Azamina" is fun and can out problem cards, but usually St Azamina's continuous effect is enough to win in situations where that would work. Just note that Ila Silvia's continuous effect does not work with St Azamina's.

You shouldn't be going for Dancing Leaves over Duplication anyway. Hanzo search Duplication is a better endboard than Hanzo search Dancing Leaves.
The reason people run more Dancing Leaves over Duplications is because Duplication needs a level 3-4 ninja to do anything while Dancing Leaves can work with any ninja, or even a Book of Moon/Eclipse.
But yeah, flipping face down tends to suck vs fusion decks, also a chainblocked Urgula+Mululu is going to shit all over a Ninja endboard. The matchup sucks hard in addition to Ninjas just being a much worse deck.
Dracotail might become less common with K9VS releasing.

I get some good use out of Chimera but Doomed Dragon seems pretty pointless. If you're summoning Poplar off of Vengeance then it's pretty hard to imagine a scenario where you'd actually need the extension of Poplar's trigger effect to win. Also you often want to keep the monsters in your GY in there since Elzette and Silvy both have good GY effects on the opponent's turn.
I can see some niche scenarios where you could get interrupted in a way that leaves you with Elzette+Azamina Elzette on field then properly summon Poplar and combine it with Doomed to make Vengeance but that sounds very rare.
Fiendsmith builds might make better use of it with their equips but I don't want to play that.

pic related. 50 card because its got a lot of bricks lol.

I can see it helping with breaking boards but it's not like the deck has issues OTKing as long as it doesn't have its combo stopped and if you're resolving Diabellstar Vengeance while controlling another diabell monster then you're probably doing pretty well. Maybe I'm underestimating the value in just simplifying OTK lines though.
And Maxx C is getting limited+Fuwalos is both not an issue at all for the deck, and isn't usable with a board.

You could cope on IP/SP instead of Gooska and have alright endboards but it'll hurt your followup and obviously 1-2 disruptions isn't as good as skill drain. IP is cool because she can make a second Zebufera, Duralume, or even Varaar instead of just making SP everytime. SP is good because it fully counters Nib.
It works well enough in events at least.
Obviously doing whatever with Fiendsmith is the better option.

Yes, you can use it to grind the ladder.
In fact, anything can be used to reach at least Platinum.
Though I think you can only reach Master using Dragonmaid if you have egregious amounts of time to grind games until you hit a lucky streak.
>>

>>556215130
It's OKish. Its extension is not nearly good enough to call it actually good, since it's way too reliant on its normal summon resolving. But it's good enough to play in ranked without feeling like you're completely throwing, and for how cheaply you can build it it's good.

Dracotail Dragonmaid has a much higher powerlevel - there's no comparison.

There is no point in playing Ariseheart in a deck that doesn't have recoverbility from banishment you would play a Kashtira deck without Kashtiras except in the ED.
Kashtira is basically dead in the ocg, last deck was listed there on billibilli in august last year.

>>
>>
>>
>>556225356
>last deck was listed there on billibilli in august last year
The point of the Infinitrack package is that the resulting Arise-Heart is untargetable and indestructible by card effects (due to Outrigger and the attached Goliath), so it's harder to out than the Arise-Heart a regular Kashtira deck would produce.
Kashtira as a deck has been powercrept, but if your deck can reliably make River Stormer, you don't really have to play Kashtira
>>
>>556226047
Or you could play a K9 package with 2 lupis and banish lupis either by tribute it while, d-fissure or macro cosmo is on the fiel or banish it with ariseheart to absorb it again and the goliath with pot of ex from ed because the sending is a cost. You don't have to worry about backrow removal cuz all the protection is on ariseheat himself.

I have almost 8k gems and like 500 UR dust, didn't build Dracotail or Yummy, have one or two Vanquish Soul cards
will get the two Live Twin cards even though they're 6 months late and powercrept
then will probably pull K9VS as my one meta power creep deck from this meta, I didn't pull DRACOFAGGOTS or yummy
but I barely even know what it does aside from summon from hand in response to handtraps, then xyz summon

>>556235360
Why not watch some replays? Disregarding the autism and obsession some people have with probability and and statistics during deck building for attribute ratios - K9VS is actually pretty simple to play.
For hand rip, the important plays are:
>N.Ash.H Knight > Masquerade > CXyz N.As.Ch Knight > Horror Masquerade
>Ripper > Forced Release > Werewolf
TY-PHON is included in lists because Lupus can Xyz Summon and make it untargetable.
This is useful if you go second and open him (but no Izuna), or if you are playing against Dracotail, since it halts Arthalion and Gulamel can’t target it.
The Vanquish Soul portion, due to being reactionary when going second, depends on what you open. However, when going first, the plan should be to find a way to set Snow Devil with three different attributes in hand, plus a Hollie Sue on the field or in hand (which can be done using Rock of the Vanquisher) for further plays.
Please do note that despite it having some advantage against Dracotail, you can't outgrind it, so you need to win games quickly.
It's one of the reasons why Horror Masquerade is used, because sometimes it allows you to finish games with Heavy Borger.

Though you need to be careful with timing if you plan to use TY-PHON with Lupus as material against Dracotail.
Pan can out it and Malulu can negate it despite it being practically immune to everything else.

Darks, sue can play with either earth or fire on turn 0 but needs dark for both effects. Not to mention the best non-engine is dark, shifter bystial even phantazmay will prob be better than belle in the mirror (draws sue or Azuna). As for non-monster, only things worth considering are tcboo for yummy (it might be the best deck if everyone is playing K9 and rapes them even going second if you can bait/out surprise), and duster hits all JUSH decks decently.

It's a worse version of pic related.
I guess doing it on your own turn can be beneficial.
