The fact that Dracoback was not included in the engine until people figured out that it can bounce any card back just proves that Yugioh players can't read.
It would be worth mentioning that Fateful + Gryphon is still full combo since you use Fateful to search Enchantress and just discard her for the Risemara
@@ryuunishikawa and yet it's super used somehow. Wow, it's so surprising so many people are using such a useless engine. It really makes you wonder, huh?
Worth noting that the shuffle back of Gryphon Rider is actually part of the effect and NOT a cost, and the negate requires that to happen in order to negate.
So if you chain a destruction card to its negate effect and destroy it before it shuffles itself would that prevent the negate or would it shuffle itself from the GY?
Every time I see the Adventure engine in action, I'm torn between "that's so cool, it's so emblematic of how simple engines can take any deck and make them competitive" and "that's so annoying, it's so emblematic of how Konami just keeps printing cards with less and less restrictions and challenges so we have to keep buying new cards to keep up".
I really appreciate this series! One criticism is I hope in the future more “combo” interactions with the engine is included (like in the Dogmatika Shaddoll explanation )
Ash and Maxx C still needs an animation. I’m floored that called By, triple tactics got one before them. Also, the animation for Forbidden droplet is kinda disappointing.
The normal summon effect isn't the only reason not everything is on Adventure. It demands 7-10 slots in your deck unless you have a better way to access it, like Cherubini. A deck with "Frog" in its name is usually running 8 frogs. Running Adventure is running an entire archetype, and many decks aren't on it because they need to resolve their normal summon, but because they don't have the space for it.
I really love the idea of you making this a series of videos you do, some engines are hard to understand without someone who already knows how they work
I play a pure Adventure deck on Master Duel, and you are right that you rarely would ever summon Water Enchantress. However, that said, it is so satisfying when you actually do summon her, especially since she has a summoning animation. 🧙♀️💧💙
This engine somewhat reminds me when DPE got introduced. Easy to use, a lot of decks can use it, both are annoying as hell to go against and the only way to completely shut them down is by banishing their core piece, in this case it's gryphon and dpe.
@@arrownoir You need 2 sources of removal bc the gryphon will not allow you to do smt with the first removal and you need to summon a 2000 ATK monster without using an effect that would completly stop you in your tracks. I have also seen it being played alot with DPE, so you need even more stuff to deal with it. This is the definition of fun.
After reading some of the comments it made it somewhat easier to understand how to deal with the adventure token engine. Obviously when i said about it reminding me of DPE i didn't meant it that it was as difficult to deal with as DPE but the whole feel of the meta shifting towards those cards and being included in every deck. It's like MD every 2-3 new packs they introduce a quite generic engine or boss monster that impacts the game a lot and potentially giving a rough time towards those players that want to play something older cause of nostalgia or simply not wanting to follow the meta and pick always the best cards. Not long ago we had DPE doing that, before that we had Baronne de fleur, honestly if it wasn't about the events i prolly would play less.
Definitely want more videos like these, when Adventure was about to debut in MD I watched most of the explainer videos on YT and most of them sucked. Either not actually talking about the individual cards or rattling off how the engine works quickly like they're tired of explaining it. This is the perfect mix of showing why it's so good and how each individual card works.
I've been playing this in my pendulum magicians deck and I have not even read a single card so this video was great. I just sorta figured out what they did by clicking buttons when cards started glowing
5:47 guess calling fateful adventure "journey of destiny" was a slip also gryphon going into the deck is not a cost, it is part of the effect, so if you can prevent it from shuffling itself during the chain (via a target negate or other means) then gryphon's negate doesn't happen
He also "misnamed" dracoback a few seconds later, so I assumed it was just either a different translation or a play on words due to having to pronounce all the card names so many times
Well, I like that name more honestly, but I get it they want to make it sounds more "rpgish adventure" so they go with fateful adventure, but man I miss Journey of Destiny
Directly equipping Dracoback from the deck feels like something you don't really often need to do unless you're trying to play around something specific. If you add it to your hand first, not only can you use it as discard fodder for Fateful Adventure, you can also use it as such for other cards such as The Phantom Knights of Torn Scales or similar. And if not, you can always just equip it from the hand anyway.
I found a bit more consistency with phantom knights adventure when I remembered that you actually CAN summon the enchantress. Lol. Her and an extender get you to cherubini as well as put her in the grave for aremesir. And as your normal summon she won't be using an effect. You wont be able to bait an ash before revealing what sort of deck you have, but that gives you Griffin in time for nibiru. Also, it took me so long to recognize this was isekai themed. As a fan of a lot of isekai trash, I'm really tempted to make a full adventure deck.
@@mbrusyda9437 It's isekai-themed. A pure Adventure deck is supposed to simulate the Enchantress summoning an adventurer from another world, who then gains allies and equipment as the story continues. Rite of Aramesir is also lightly gacha-themed: Aramesir backwards is "risemara", or "reset marathon", the gacha ritual of making new accounts until you start off with exactly what you want.
POV: You have been isekai'd into a Duel Logs video by TheDuelLogs and must now sit down and watch as your new friends explain to you how (with YOUR help) they will take over the world. ♪┌|∵|┘♪ Not so USELESS huh?
Would love more videos like this. As someone who doesn't know the modern game. I am still interested in new cards. My knowledge ends with the Synchro era. So learning old and new engines would. Be neat
As someone who wants to come back to the game after 15 years, I would LOVE to see more of these, since trying to follow along modern gameplay is basically like listening to quantum physics explained
It’s worth mentioning that you can summon anything with Fateful Adventure on the field that way you can add Dracoback and discard it to search for Griphon and immediately equip it to the Token, essentially you’re getting the same result without needing to discard anything
After seeing your post in the Facebook group I’ve been watching this video and messing around in solo mode. Now I’m beginning to really understand this engine and when I have the cards in hand I definitely make use of it.
I greatly support this kind of explanatory videos. Engines are such an interesting part of the games which compliments plenty of rogue strategies and meta deck alike. Also, for people that want to try them out to their full potential, it's awesome to have this kind of feedback
I'm mainly a purest at heart when it comes to deck building, and I feel more decks should be like this. I'm tired of all decks I make needing to have an engine of some sorts that's not its own fucking archetype.
A "fun" gimmick worth mentioning for pure is abusing the fact normal summons cannot activate their effects that turn to keep something broken like Amano Iwato on the field. This forbidden knowledge will likely make you the ire of your peers if you use it tho.
fun fact: magic has an engine with the same name its centered around adventure creatures, who can be cast as an instant/sorcery with the adventure subtype and then go into exile, where they can be played as creatures already a 2-for-1 but wait... theres more lucky clover is a card which copies the adventure side if adventure creatures, not once per turn, you can have up to 4 of these a single lucky clover is a 3-for-1 but wait... theres more... edgewall inkeeper draws u a card whenever an adventure creature enters the battlefield so with one clover and one innkeeper, you get a 4-for-1 off of a single spell now lets look at the adventures used in the classic build: bonecrusher giant: deals 2 damage to any target at instant speed, and is a 3 mana 4/3 on the creature side hes ur main removal spell beanstalk giant: searches up a basic land onto the field *untapped* as an adventure for 3 mana (with 2 clovers, he becomes mana neutral, this is a major point), as a creature he's an X/X where x is the amount of lands u have brazen borrower:adventure side lets u for 2 mana to bounce a nonland permanent ur opponents control at instant speed, creature is a 3/1 flier with flash (aka can be played af instant speed), can only block fliers, but u aint gonna blcok with him fae of wishes: a 1/4 flier ehich can be bounced to ur hand at instant speed for 2 mana and discarding, adventure side lets u put a card from the sideboard to ur hand (a main asset in the deck, lets u jave answers for every matchup at your fingertips with no downside, plus its a great blocker), a wish effect with recursion, which is the best kind of wish effect there are many other adventures, but they werent part of the meta build this was basically mtg's zoodiacs, (hyper consistent, every play gave u card advantage, extreme meta dominance in late eldraine era, killed UW control by outgrinding it), even after clover (the centerpoint of the engine) was banned, a gruul stompy variant was still viable later when zendikar rising came out, they splashed white for omnath, locus of creation (the point where wizards realized their mistakes and fixed standard to the point its an actually balanced format nowadays), who is a whole nother beast i play a version of adventures in modern
@@DarkSymphony777 Yep, I am the main Blue-eyes and put two Dracoback. Because Blue-eyes white dragon is non-effect so they also can help adventure token as well.
An archetype based off on the "Isekai" genre in anime. Basically archetypes within archetypes, and Enchantress is Aqua from Konosuba, all the while the Token is the Isekai'd dude. I'd like to see more concepts like this in ygo.
Also worth noting is that rite of aramesir prevents you from activating an on-field effect of a normal summon monster, that means prank kids can still activate its effect. Also amano iwato effect to send it back to the hand is an activated effect, so do what you want with that information.
It's not worth it. You would ended up ngeating your own Gryphon Rider. I mean sure, if you play like 3x Fateful it could work as a mini stun. But Amano are not immune to removal and still also can be destroyed by battle if for example battled with opponent's Adventurer token
It should be noted that you can also special summon enchantress from your hand with an adventure token on the field and it is level 3, which can come up if you ever draw multiples, draw one with rite, or manage to recycle it from the banished.
Dunno if you missed it, but I do like to summon after activating Rite, to add Dracoback to the hand and then search for Gryphon to discard Drackoback and equip it to your token, via it's effect.
Honestly seeing how used and hated this engine is in Master Duel, do not be surprised if we see a few cards being banned or limited, I include also DPE on that thought.
Sadly, with konamis track record for banning, it'll be a couple of years before any of the adventure cards get touched, if at all, especially in master duel, as it has the worst ban ideology ive ever seen
@@DirtyDan1203 I think that after the Duelist Cup event is over there will be a new ban list. Because MD is online so they can implement ban lists very quick. Why their ban list is messy and all over the place? who knows but I blame the single match format that doesn't happen in TCG or OCG.
I only play Virtual World but I absolutely hate adventurer and everyone who plays it so I don't. I ff everytime I see someone play it to let them have no fun with the game. And absolutely love your videos keep it up I watch them all + really enjoy them! :D
I tried the dogmatika engine with invoked and shaddoll. Wasnt bad just was decent. I took the adventure package for a test drive online, and i loved it. Ditched the church package for the isekai package and got a illegal knight with IRL at locals from the shop all blinged out too. 😅
The field spell linked to Moonlit Papillon has drawn enough removal and negates while I tested it that it could be worth running one of each, mostly as the field spell can deny targeted effects. A tech choice for certain.
When the deck is run in more "full" variants, they often use it in conjunction with Stun shenanigans, like using Rite to leave certain Spirit monsters on the field to continuously apply their effects. The last monster not mentioned in the video is basically just a big beater(it can set the Adventure Traps from deck after a battle and the Revival one is kinda okay since it can bring back 2 monsters and an equip, but you need the token to stick around to use either one) but as an easy to bring out level 4 Fire Warrior it can work well in Rank 4 plays and Isolde Turbo shenanigans(which can dump all 3 of the archetype's equip spells to stack onto the token).
I got triggered each time you said you activate fateful from the deck. It gets placed in a s/t zone not activated. That matters because it can't be negated by effects that negate activations
No? Even if rite said "you can activate a fateful from deck" you could not respond to the activation of fateful. It's the same reason you can't strike a monster summoned off poly The only difference between place and activate in this context is preventing judge calls/complaints from clueless people who thought they can solemn judgment fateful
3x Ash Blossom 3x Maxx "C" 1x D-E Dasher 1x D-E Celestial 2x Destiny Fusion 1x Dracoback 1x Fateful 1x Gryphon 2x Rite of Aramesir 2x Water Enchantress 2x Call of the grave 3x Crossout 1-3x Lightning Storm So here we have a standard MD deck. There are 15 to 17 skill slots left. No wonder the game loses so many players a month.
I am not the only person who hates the adventure archetype in Master Duel. I rage quit so many times against this deck, I think I I popped a blood vessel. Master Duel seriously needs to update and make the ban list better so decks won't be so broken.
Even with the decks I have that want to go second, I won't even bother with the frustration unless I've Token Collector in my hand, which I have to run in *everything* now. Nibiru's useless because they've got a negate for it ready in two summons, Maxx C is pointless because I can never resolve it anyway, and they're going to end on more negates than you can really play through, unless you've got a Sphere Mode.
It's not even that the decks are broken. There are always powerful decks. The problem is that they're all literally running the same cards. Adventurer, DPE+Verte, Halq+Auroradon, and then you finally get to face their actual deck.
You also don’t need to lose advantage when you discard, since you can discard Dracoback by summoning anything, after you summon the token off Rite, forcing Fateful to search out an equip, before you activate its effect to search Gryphon Rider. Dracoback equips itself to your token off a discard anyway.
I used to hate the adventure engine, but now i like it because I'm able to see both its strengths and weaknesses. In EDOPro I've only been forced to see its strengths because i lose the entire duel to this alone, without ever even seeing what the opponent's deck is actually all about
you dont have to discard if you normal or special summon before activating adventurer and searching griffin since youll search the dracoback and then discard it and equip it straight away from the gy. useful in prank kids for example since you normal and just use gy effects so aramesir doesnt affect you.
It's funny how you included Aleister in the explanation since I was looking for a side engine to boost my Invoked Deck. Now I know not to use this one thank you
Got back to master duel and saw a bunch of these combos (alongside DPE). Really sucks that decks have to utilize these cheap engines just to survive enough to get their "win condition combo/hand"
Very nice video, but i must say it was a bit confusing, that you seem to have used different names for the cards from time to time? Those were probably just alternate translations, but i would still watch out for calling it different names in the same video, especially if show the card (and it's title) while calling it somethig else. From what i gathered, you often called "Dracoback the Dragon Steed" "Dracoback the ridable Dragon" and i think i heard you call "Fateful Adventure" "Journey of Destiny" once
(sigh)....it sucks that I actually like playing this as a deck and because it is played as an engine, they are gonna get limited...and as consolation, I get those two terrible cards that I have to play otherwise it literally ceases to function. Not two new GOOD cards that actually elevate the deck (Like Punk and Exorsister got), no just two cards that make the deck FUNCTION after the limiting of two of its must have cards...feelsbadman.
@@JABRIEL251 eh, they would, but they lack any kind of boss monster at this point. Dark Law has no protection, and Malicious Bane isn't very difficult to out.
Would live to see other videos in this style, explaining other engines/ meta strategies would be neat.
He has Tenyi and Dogmatika engines on the clip channel
The fact that Dracoback was not included in the engine until people figured out that it can bounce any card back just proves that Yugioh players can't read.
They saw it was an equip card and went "nah".
I would say Master Duel and Duel Links players don't know how to read, TCG/OCG I play against at my locals know how to read
@@kekidakid TCG players spend like hundreds of dollars building their deck every season. THEY BETTER KNOW HOW TO READ
TCG/OCG players can read yet digital media players refuse to read, that's why you'll find the exact same card composition in a similar deck
It would be worth mentioning that Fateful + Gryphon is still full combo since you use Fateful to search Enchantress and just discard her for the Risemara
And you don't even have to discard dracoback so you can either keep it for another turn or discard it for another card.
That engine is trash and useless.
@@ryuunishikawa and yet it's super used somehow. Wow, it's so surprising so many people are using such a useless engine. It really makes you wonder, huh?

It will fail to shuffle back, and because it will not have been shuffled back, it will not negate.

(happy "Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit" noises)

Imagine not playing Halq in this deck smh
Time to add Labrynth, Snake Eyes, Rescue Ace, Abyss Actor, Supreme King Z-ARC, Solfachord, Sky Striker and Fossil Fusion.

Definitely the latter, considering this engine is already powercrept out of the game.
This is probably the best way I can articulate my thoughts on how yugioh is for me in 2023
I really appreciate this series! One criticism is I hope in the future more “combo” interactions with the engine is included (like in the Dogmatika Shaddoll explanation )
As I'm sick and bored with nothing to do. This is just the video I wanted to see pop up on my feed. Thanks Duel Logs ☺
Water enchantress has a summoning animation in master duel, while the griphon does not,and that tells you everything you need to know about Konami.

Best YuGiOh videos out there by far
fun fact: magic has an engine with the same name
its centered around adventure creatures, who can be cast as an instant/sorcery with the adventure subtype and then go into exile, where they can be played as creatures
already a 2-for-1
but wait... theres more
lucky clover is a card which copies the adventure side if adventure creatures, not once per turn, you can have up to 4 of these
a single lucky clover is a 3-for-1
but wait... theres more...
edgewall inkeeper draws u a card whenever an adventure creature enters the battlefield
so with one clover and one innkeeper, you get a 4-for-1 off of a single spell
now lets look at the adventures used in the classic build:
bonecrusher giant: deals 2 damage to any target at instant speed, and is a 3 mana 4/3 on the creature side
hes ur main removal spell
beanstalk giant: searches up a basic land onto the field *untapped* as an adventure for 3 mana (with 2 clovers, he becomes mana neutral, this is a major point), as a creature he's an X/X where x is the amount of lands u have
brazen borrower:adventure side lets u for 2 mana to bounce a nonland permanent ur opponents control at instant speed, creature is a 3/1 flier with flash (aka can be played af instant speed), can only block fliers, but u aint gonna blcok with him
fae of wishes: a 1/4 flier ehich can be bounced to ur hand at instant speed for 2 mana and discarding, adventure side lets u put a card from the sideboard to ur hand (a main asset in the deck, lets u jave answers for every matchup at your fingertips with no downside, plus its a great blocker), a wish effect with recursion, which is the best kind of wish effect
there are many other adventures, but they werent part of the meta build
this was basically mtg's zoodiacs, (hyper consistent, every play gave u card advantage, extreme meta dominance in late eldraine era, killed UW control by outgrinding it), even after clover (the centerpoint of the engine) was banned, a gruul stompy variant was still viable
later when zendikar rising came out, they splashed white for omnath, locus of creation (the point where wizards realized their mistakes and fixed standard to the point its an actually balanced format nowadays), who is a whole nother beast
i play a version of adventures in modern

Also worth noting is that rite of aramesir prevents you from activating an on-field effect of a normal summon monster, that means prank kids can still activate its effect. Also amano iwato effect to send it back to the hand is an activated effect, so do what you want with that information.
Had someone normal summon Kerass twice after he used his rite of aramesir. Probably confused why his Kerass wasn't highlighted.
It's not worth it. You would ended up ngeating your own Gryphon Rider. I mean sure, if you play like 3x Fateful it could work as a mini stun. But Amano are not immune to removal and still also can be destroyed by battle if for example battled with opponent's Adventurer token
So this is the archetype that's been locking me out of plays in Master Duel... gosh, do I hate it.
It should be noted that you can also special summon enchantress from your hand with an adventure token on the field and it is level 3, which can come up if you ever draw multiples, draw one with rite, or manage to recycle it from the banished.
I didn't understand what made this archetypes so powerful until I read Griffin. Thanks
Up to date content Pog
Man’s really described how I hate fighting this deck at the start of the video
great vid indeed...
would love to see other engines explained~
Dunno if you missed it, but I do like to summon after activating Rite, to add Dracoback to the hand and then search for Gryphon to discard Drackoback and equip it to your token, via it's effect.
Great Video, can we hope for more explanations on different engines or even decks?
A little too late lol, but I hope you do more of these in the future at the time when certain engines become relevant
Honestly seeing how used and hated this engine is in Master Duel, do not be surprised if we see a few cards being banned or limited, I include also DPE on that thought.
Sadly, with konamis track record for banning, it'll be a couple of years before any of the adventure cards get touched, if at all, especially in master duel, as it has the worst ban ideology ive ever seen
@@DirtyDan1203 I think that after the Duelist Cup event is over there will be a new ban list. Because MD is online so they can implement ban lists very quick. Why their ban list is messy and all over the place? who knows but I blame the single match format that doesn't happen in TCG or OCG.
@@DirtyDan1203 A lot of their cards are limited in the OCG
Thank you for the clear and concise explanation. Subbed for more :)
I only play Virtual World but I absolutely hate adventurer and everyone who plays it so I don't. I ff everytime I see someone play it to let them have no fun with the game.
And absolutely love your videos keep it up I watch them all + really enjoy them! :D
I very much like and welcome this type of video, keep em coming
Very good video keep these comming!
oh great timing, just pulled the pack, and got some, want to try it but I'm too lazy too read lol
I keep seeing this shit in Duelist Cup, glad to see what it's doing it explained so well
I don't even play Master Duel anymore, I just like it when I know what the fuck the others are talking about.
I don't play Yugioh but your videos (particularly this type) make me just want to brew whatever garbage I can and try it hahah
I tried the dogmatika engine with invoked and shaddoll. Wasnt bad just was decent. I took the adventure package for a test drive online, and i loved it.
Ditched the church package for the isekai package and got a illegal knight with IRL at locals from the shop all blinged out too. 😅
I didn’t even know about her third effect to search equips. It’s never been used in my presence.
Thank you for this!!!!!
The field spell linked to Moonlit Papillon has drawn enough removal and negates while I tested it that it could be worth running one of each, mostly as the field spell can deny targeted effects. A tech choice for certain.
When the deck is run in more "full" variants, they often use it in conjunction with Stun shenanigans, like using Rite to leave certain Spirit monsters on the field to continuously apply their effects.
The last monster not mentioned in the video is basically just a big beater(it can set the Adventure Traps from deck after a battle and the Revival one is kinda okay since it can bring back 2 monsters and an equip, but you need the token to stick around to use either one) but as an easy to bring out level 4 Fire Warrior it can work well in Rank 4 plays and Isolde Turbo shenanigans(which can dump all 3 of the archetype's equip spells to stack onto the token).
I got triggered each time you said you activate fateful from the deck. It gets placed in a s/t zone not activated. That matters because it can't be negated by effects that negate activations
No? Even if rite said "you can activate a fateful from deck" you could not respond to the activation of fateful. It's the same reason you can't strike a monster summoned off poly
The only difference between place and activate in this context is preventing judge calls/complaints from clueless people who thought they can solemn judgment fateful
So that's how the 2 minute combo that cleared my board at locals works
3x Ash Blossom
3x Maxx "C"
1x D-E Dasher
1x D-E Celestial
2x Destiny Fusion
1x Dracoback
1x Fateful
1x Gryphon
2x Rite of Aramesir
2x Water Enchantress
2x Call of the grave
3x Crossout
1-3x Lightning Storm
So here we have a standard MD deck. There are 15 to 17 skill slots left. No wonder the game loses so many players a month.
Forgot foolish
Celestial being banned will make DPE less annoying.
I am not the only person who hates the adventure archetype in Master Duel. I rage quit so many times against this deck, I think I I popped a blood vessel. Master Duel seriously needs to update and make the ban list better so decks won't be so broken.
Even with the decks I have that want to go second, I won't even bother with the frustration unless I've Token Collector in my hand, which I have to run in *everything* now. Nibiru's useless because they've got a negate for it ready in two summons, Maxx C is pointless because I can never resolve it anyway, and they're going to end on more negates than you can really play through, unless you've got a Sphere Mode.
It's not even that the decks are broken. There are always powerful decks. The problem is that they're all literally running the same cards. Adventurer, DPE+Verte, Halq+Auroradon, and then you finally get to face their actual deck.
Exactly this. Why make such generic cards that can be added into any deck? It's just killing the variety in the game.
This also explains 90% or MD decks
You also don’t need to lose advantage when you discard, since you can discard Dracoback by summoning anything, after you summon the token off Rite, forcing Fateful to search out an equip, before you activate its effect to search Gryphon Rider. Dracoback equips itself to your token off a discard anyway.
Thanks for this. "Why has everyone been losing their shit over Adventures? Seems meh." Now I get it.
And I just met a player in master duel playing this engine in flundereeze deck
Reading is hard.
@@Ragnarok540 yep but better than know how to read
Love these videos
I used to hate the adventure engine, but now i like it because I'm able to see both its strengths and weaknesses.
In EDOPro I've only been forced to see its strengths because i lose the entire duel to this alone, without ever even seeing what the opponent's deck is actually all about
So stop Water Enchantress when possible and get rid of the token when possible. Got it. Lol
you dont have to discard if you normal or special summon before activating adventurer and searching griffin since youll search the dracoback and then discard it and equip it straight away from the gy. useful in prank kids for example since you normal and just use gy effects so aramesir doesnt affect you.
Additionally, Gryphon + Yokai-Tuner with a brick hand can still make Baronne.
It's funny how you included Aleister in the explanation since I was looking for a side engine to boost my Invoked Deck. Now I know not to use this one thank you
3:33 didn’t know this was related to Noble Arms
God bless this channel
Got back to master duel and saw a bunch of these combos (alongside DPE). Really sucks that decks have to utilize these cheap engines just to survive enough to get their "win condition combo/hand"
Or you can normal something else first and grab draco before gryphon.Then when you search gryphon , discard draco and requip from gy.
Aqua actually being a useful goddess
Love this content more please
I wish i had this engine in MD instead of 3 Apex Avian 4 Ruinforce and half an enchantress.
Can you please make a video on the invoked and branded engines.
why did it take me this long to realize that i wasnt subscribed
This a good engine if you know how to do all of it properly. Also what other engines are the best ones to use in Master Duels?
Dangers, Invoked.
@@arrownoir Any others?
@@rainbowdragon168 Tenyi and Gizmek
@@arrownoir ok
Verte+DPE
Halq+Aurora
Probably going to try it with fire king I know is very strange but I just want to don’t ask why
nice style video handsome lad
Have you ever considered playing Adventure engine to play more than 3 Vishudas without the overpowered omni negate?
I now want to build a pure Adventure deck
love this comtent
Very nice video, but i must say it was a bit confusing, that you seem to have used different names for the cards from time to time? Those were probably just alternate translations, but i would still watch out for calling it different names in the same video, especially if show the card (and it's title) while calling it somethig else.
From what i gathered, you often called "Dracoback the Dragon Steed" "Dracoback the ridable Dragon"
and i think i heard you call "Fateful Adventure" "Journey of Destiny" once
Exactly what I needed to try counter this thing
I would like a video about a viable Huge Revolution deck (or at least a not bad one).
(sigh)....it sucks that I actually like playing this as a deck and because it is played as an engine, they are gonna get limited...and as consolation, I get those two terrible cards that I have to play otherwise it literally ceases to function. Not two new GOOD cards that actually elevate the deck (Like Punk and Exorsister got), no just two cards that make the deck FUNCTION after the limiting of two of its must have cards...feelsbadman.
Yeah I love the cards but most people only know it from the 5 card engine
It’s how I feel about auradon because I had a mecha phantom beast deck
As a HERO player, I fear for DPE for the same reason.
@@scottbecker4367 At least heroes would still function and not need two terrible cards to make it function.
@@JABRIEL251 eh, they would, but they lack any kind of boss monster at this point. Dark Law has no protection, and Malicious Bane isn't very difficult to out.
