Konami saw all those branded players using Gimmick Puppet Nightmare and concluded that what players really wanted was Gimmick Puppet support that is also a consistent FTK.
I mean IV’s strat was burn and alternate win cons by using his Xyz Effects to destroy monsters. It was always going to be an FTK if the strat was given support
@@mrbubbles6468even in bis first appearance I think IV still used the bp to end the game also it doesn’t need to be an FTK when cxyz IV can burn on the opponents turn
Ehhh in defense of Konami, Misc is a lingering effect so once it's been activated it's just a f you to your opponent while you can actually pop the field spell to make them being able to be affected again. Edit: changed continous to lingering
Chimera honestly deserves a couple more fusions that are actually illusions. Ignoring the battle trick part of Illusions, they should really get a good end board piece that can 3 times per turn banish your whole field and bring it back to dodge removal.
They’d probably make a link 7 first, since the highest right now is 6. Could be something like 5 monsters in your main monster zone, and 2 from opponent main monster zone. Would be really sick if it were untargerable, and gained the attack of everything. That would be like super power creep Underworld Goddess, but I honestly see no issue with printing stupid busted cards at this point. Like if it’s really that bad they can just ban it but why not just let everything be stupid.
You realize I:P exists, right? This would force players to only ever play with less than 3 monsters on the board until they can out it. This does not sound fun.

@@LadyTsunade777 With Yu-Gi-Oh, more so than in other card games, cards do not exist in a vacuum.

@@user-jk7vp7vn2kyou want to mill at least 1 bloody doll or baby without normal summon, even then you want to use your extra normal summon for consistency tool like pathfinder or even another baby. Remember that bloody doll doesn't lock you from summoning gimmick puppet entirely it's only lock you into extra deck puppet. That's a dilemma for your opponent because you can bait your opponent before committing into your puppet show.
i don't care if you're a fan of the puppets or not, giving any deck a one card FTK as well as a field spell that not only acts as another starter for that ftk but also makes it difficult to interact with, is objectively poor card design.
It's great card design if your goal is to ruin the game for however long it takes to ban. The people at Konami trying to tank the game are doing a convincing job.
I mean thats kinda how the overall game design has gotten, decks not considered viable unless it has broken support making it a tier 0 threat until its banned, and 6 months later happens all over again.
Gimmick puppet going from completely irrelevant to a possibly tiered threat is not something I thought would happen today. Or ever. But as a long time puppet fan I'm happy to see it.
If Yubel found a way to be viable, I doubt any deck would ever surprise me if it got support now. Freaking Jinzo or Thousand Dragon Turbo could suddenly get a card that turns their deck into a one card FTK and I wouldn’t bat an eye.
@@otterfire4712I was fucking flabbergasted when I heard MBT say Superheavy Samurai when discussing the past format. Like... the attack in defence guys??? (They were not being used to attack in defence.)
Astral World Tree is a mandatory effect, so "simply" get 5 link material worth of bodies onto the field, make it, get another 2 link material, put something on the opponent's field, Transverser it, somehow get Darklord Nurse into play, and then special summon a bunch of times to FTK them. Easy!
The main issue I see with Puppets is having to interact with your opponent. Gimmick Puppet doesn’t have any in-archetype negates or really any way to interact during your opponent’s turn outside of Puppet Parade. Imperm, Solemn, any number of Traps can do things to it as well. It’s scary, and will definitely make an impact, but it’s also a glass cannon. I’m curious to see how it will do and what that impact looks like, and how it is hit later on.
I'm genuinely so happy they're printing non-fusions for a heavily DM-coded monster type but let's not forget the only actually competent illusion deck right now fusion-locks you
Veidos for the field spell, Shifter, Droll, Bystials, D.D. Crow, Gnomaterial, Relatiating, Flying and Contact "C" and hilariously enough Spooky Dogwood As far as I'm aware these are all realistic handtraps that would stop gimmick puppet as an FTK without having to side in some random anti-burn card
Unless Konami doesn't hit the tier 0 fire deck thats lining their pockets right now. Then wtf are you doing? You lose to FIRE if you play those and lose to Gimmick Puppet if you don't.
The Trickstar Tears cards reminded me that cursed bathwater craze which was going on 5 years ago. I imagine people would pay good money for idol tears.
No, no. Gimmick puppet IS part of the light support - because it's played by an arcLIGHT brother. That's why the new xyz monster is quattro - the new cards focus on bringing out the edgy arcLIGHT and making your opponent experience his fanservice.
I am becoming convinced that Konami’s goal is with every new release or support they want to create a 100% play rate deck so they can make every card omega collector rare and force the competitive community to mortgage the next 5 generations of their family to play the game for like 2 months
Bob the World Tree! Bob the World Tree is real!!! Anyway, the Rank 4 Illusion monster seems really good, and Chimera decks can use it because Rescue Rabbit is a level 4 Beast that can be searched off of Big-Winged Berfomet.
They haven’t played the deck so they don’t know about the choke points or the consistency but it’s not great and we’re stopped by some pretty generic hand traps
While I agree that isnt bad card design, the Gimmick Puppet ftk is just not good. It dies to Ash unless you open field spell plus 3 extenders, it cant ftk without Field spell, it loses to random cards people are siding anyways like Spooky Dogwood, it dies to Shifter, Belle, DD Crow. And if it doesnt go first and ftk, it loses 100% of the time
i love mbt's slow realization that this new gimmick puppet support is not just silly fun support for a bad petdeck but actually broken support that elevates the strategy to highly playable FTK material
Chaos Giant Grinder isn't even needed for the FTK, there's a different-ish combo that does it without him. It's a one card combo, by the way. You just need the field spell.
I know people don't like Trickstar, but it sucks as someone who enjoys the control aspect that it is just terrible for a long-term strategy. Especially when an FTK deck was made off the press; I don't particularly appreciate seeing good control decks get turned into the mid-range combo, I'd have loved to see Trickstar get more for the deck that helped control how much the opponent can do while keeping the advantage most decks have in the current state of the game. I loved Altergeist and I feel the same thing happened then as it is happening now. I love the support though, it's okay and mid at its best, but it is still a fun and interesting playstyle that feels different from the older styles of decks.
Consistent FTKs is not good for the meta. Having a card that just says "it's all towers" is not good for the meta. Just because an archetype has been dooodoo before does not justify extremely toxic support for it.
@@ragnaricstudios5888 Tier0 Formats are also unhealthy for the game, you are correct. I do not know why you think this is a gotcha. Did i indicate anywhere that I think the current format is fine?
@keinkanal7382, while i don't play meda, so i can't say for sure, but from what i can see it's basically an easy dead counter that any meda deck can get rid of quickly so i don't see why people care it's archetype only so it can't work with anything else and gimmick puppets for the longest time couldn't do shit so this new support fixes every problem besides alt wins have always failed so of course it would become an ftk as a result
I mean there's Ningirsu with the blade he yoinked from Avram right after Ib dies (the blade that Galatea uses). If there's a Mekk-Knight Avram, there should be a Mekk-Knight Ningirsu but I'm gonna guess it's also going to be an Orcust card if they ever decide to print this since shortly after is when he starts to learn about the World Legacies to build Orcustrated Babel.
To all the babies complaining, droll, d.d crow, shifter, imperm, spooky dogwood, ghost ogre, ghost bell, all stop the ftk. Nibiru also stops the ftk as tributing the gimmick puppet they give you is still a way you can mitigate damage by making giant grinder miss. Ironically veidos the eruption dragon also stops the ftk. Lancea stops little soikders modulation making the extra normal useless and blanks dreary doll, Phantasme stops lines that didn't start with the field spell by blanking chimera doll. Yes if you open nothing and your opponent goes first and has full combo you will lose, but let's be honest it's not too different then losing the dice roll to most meta decks anyways. This deck will pretty much just lose going second and idk if id consider this better than volcanics. Both can ftk consistently but volcanics can actually go second very well and has a back up game plan. While it is toxic it's not much more toxic than runnick and pile decks running around so honestly I'm not phased. While I agree it's not fun, let's be serious here and not complain it's unstoppable and going to ruin the game just because you don't want to run into it every now and then
Nah, I think they can win going second they just need to go all in on boardbreakers. They are basically Gem-Knights, but also able to go second and chew the board.
@@jayduel7897 Lets say its SE. How many ways does snake eye have to break their field which they have 7-10 copies of btw (terra, field itself, thrust, pathfinder). Only S:P or Kirin if its SE-FK since the other paths negate or negate and destroy, so they can activate another. Maybe Cosmic if they opened it, which would be a weird card to have sided in. GPs by themselves can just break the board between strings into chaos strings, grinder and hunter, and the mind con r4nk. Then be able to endure follow up with the mind con trap. If you add both TTTs, droplets, maybe even evenly you can deal with an established board. Of course, if they can't get to their field, they might do nothing unless dreary and terror baby are activated. Which should be feasible because puppet parade has text and sends more names going second unless ypur name is floo or vv
@@RNGHater dont know what your abbreviating with SE, but the argument is that going second the deck sucks. If you want to compare it to snake eyes even though hopefully by then it won't be tier zero, we can. Cards like sky burn and ip masq can check bodies before the puppet play can xyz summon. Of course getting terror baby or bisque doll especially can help, but reliably getting them in the GY will be difficult. Ash on any negate n bloody doll will hurt immensely, the field spell will be singled out by any means and the obvious play would be to takeout the bodies before they can xyz summon. It will need to open starters+ multiple kinds of non engine to beat any kind of layered interaction. Now if your opponent has no interaction and you have full combo yes you can otk pretty easily. So can most decks if you don't have any interaction. That's not special that's basic
As an Illusion/Chimera player with Infinite Forbidden we are also getting new level 4s so we don't have to overlay 2 copies of Mirrorsword Knight to make the rank 4

If there's a Mekk-Knight Avram, there should be a Mekk-Knight Ningirsu but I'm gonna guess it's also going to be an Orcust card if they ever decide to print this since shortly after is when he starts to learn about the World Legacies to build Orcustrated Babel.
They could also pull a Duel Terminal and go, "Try to put these in the lore timeline, bozo"

The way the field spell reads also means that you can't Ghost Ogre it upon activation... or am i wrong?
Im regretting trading all my gimmik puppet cards back in the day😢
To all the babies complaining, droll, d.d crow, shifter, imperm, spooky dogwood, ghost ogre, ghost bell, all stop the ftk. Nibiru also stops the ftk as tributing the gimmick puppet they give you is still a way you can mitigate damage by making giant grinder miss. Ironically veidos the eruption dragon also stops the ftk. Lancea stops little soikders modulation making the extra normal useless and blanks dreary doll, Phantasme stops lines that didn't start with the field spell by blanking chimera doll. Yes if you open nothing and your opponent goes first and has full combo you will lose, but let's be honest it's not too different then losing the dice roll to most meta decks anyways. This deck will pretty much just lose going second and idk if id consider this better than volcanics. Both can ftk consistently but volcanics can actually go second very well and has a back up game plan. While it is toxic it's not much more toxic than runnick and pile decks running around so honestly I'm not phased. While I agree it's not fun, let's be serious here and not complain it's unstoppable and going to ruin the game just because you don't want to run into it every now and then
Nah, I think they can win going second they just need to go all in on boardbreakers. They are basically Gem-Knights, but also able to go second and chew the board.
@@RNGHater they just need to go second vs a non competent deck, maybe open some hand traps and non engine and pray. Basically every non tiered deck
@@jayduel7897 Lets say its SE. How many ways does snake eye have to break their field which they have 7-10 copies of btw (terra, field itself, thrust, pathfinder). Only S:P or Kirin if its SE-FK since the other paths negate or negate and destroy, so they can activate another. Maybe Cosmic if they opened it, which would be a weird card to have sided in.
GPs by themselves can just break the board between strings into chaos strings, grinder and hunter, and the mind con r4nk. Then be able to endure follow up with the mind con trap.
If you add both TTTs, droplets, maybe even evenly you can deal with an established board.
Of course, if they can't get to their field, they might do nothing unless dreary and terror baby are activated. Which should be feasible because puppet parade has text and sends more names going second unless ypur name is floo or vv
@@RNGHater dont know what your abbreviating with SE, but the argument is that going second the deck sucks. If you want to compare it to snake eyes even though hopefully by then it won't be tier zero, we can. Cards like sky burn and ip masq can check bodies before the puppet play can xyz summon. Of course getting terror baby or bisque doll especially can help, but reliably getting them in the GY will be difficult. Ash on any negate n bloody doll will hurt immensely, the field spell will be singled out by any means and the obvious play would be to takeout the bodies before they can xyz summon. It will need to open starters+ multiple kinds of non engine to beat any kind of layered interaction. Now if your opponent has no interaction and you have full combo yes you can otk pretty easily. So can most decks if you don't have any interaction. That's not special that's basic
“Give’em a circular”
I'd like to order one gimmick puppet circular with extra cheese please
More time to shine for cosmic cyclon, ghost ogre and imperm
As an Illusion/Chimera player with Infinite Forbidden we are also getting new level 4s so we don't have to overlay 2 copies of Mirrorsword Knight to make the rank 4
LIMBUS COMPANY SPOTTED Though admittedly I'm unsurprised that the bussyman himself has Limbussy in his youtube recs.
Plant bros, i regret to inform you mbt underestimates another plant w on first look.
