People emphasize Underworld Goddess of the Closed World for her removal, which is fair since they usually prefer to go into link-4s and beating over a monster by battle instead of using those 4 monsters and one of their opponents' to make Goddess, unless said monster would actually hurt your combo, in which case she becomes a great removal tool. Her protection is quite strong and synergizes with backrow since backrow is often descent at playing around targeted effects. Getting 4 effect monsters to make a link-4 as Plan A with Goddess as a plan B if an opponent's monster would prevent the combos is how things are right now. If they ever made a fiend archetype that uses backrow a lot (so not Dark Worlds for example since their deck is mainly monsters), then I can see her being used outright as a boss monster. If such an archetype exists, Goddess might be a plan A. You'd remove an opponent's monster, shut down effects of any existing ones, have protection whose weakness is covered by backrow, and almost lock your opponent's graveyard. Not too many decks would take cards from the graveyard and put them into the hand and then special summon from the hand, which would bypass her graveyard summon lock.
I have recently came on the Ignister train and it honestly impressive how versatile the arrival cyberse actually is , the token generation can be an easy way to get Linkuriboh just in case your opponent manages to get something over 6000 attack , which while not common is possible in a good deal of decks I sure as hell hope it never gets banned or anything
Underworld Goddess is even better than implied in this video because it is often summoned with I:P as one of the materials. It's so much harder to get around the indestructible effect when the card has to be targeted.
Bro before this I always thought that i:p into underworld goddess with opponent’s monster isn’t legal. Turns out that it’s just one of the “konami said so” things
Underworld Goddess, AKA "White Woman Jumpscare", is quickly becoming one of my favorite cards in the whole game. She's just so useful for outing big towers that most of my decks have her in them.

Five-Headed Link Dragon is a Link Monster version of the Ritual Monster version of Five-Headed Dragon from the Virtual World Arc used by the Big 5 in the Duel Monsters anime.
In that case, I know exactly how to print Dragon Revival Ritual as a Normal Spell: "Send 5 monsters with different names and Attributes from your hand, Deck, and/or field to the GY; Special Summon 1 "Five-Headed Link Dragon" from your Extra Deck (this is treated as a Link Summon using 5 monsters with different Attributes). You cannot Summon other monsters nor conduct your Battle Phase the turn you activate this card (but you can Normal Set)." Basically this reenacts the scene where the Big Five summoned the Five-Headed Dragon against Yugi and Joey in the Virtual World arc. It's a 1-card board wipe that puts a 5000 beater on the field, at the cost of not being able to summon anything else or attack that turn. It's powerful, but your opponent has a chance to recover from it before it attacks.
How about top 10 monsters that can be made with any amount of material of your choice, like the Worm fusion or various Cyber Dragon fusions or Rongo Bongo?
I think Rongo would be the best by a landslide unless I forgot anybody. Even taking Gossip Shadow out of the picture it's not unimaginable for a deck to play to a 3+ mat Rongo which is why I can't picture it being released.
@@randomcatname7792 That's a full board. 6 Sams have a Trap card for that achievement. Cydra Fusions are capped by your deck. Can't show up with that 1000 card deck from the past anymore since 40-60 became mandatory.
@@randomcatname7792 I'm refuting that point directly. You could likely find a way to make Quasar with 11 total materials, but any more than 3, "a 3-mat", is pushing towards an upper limit of investment. This video above looks for 5 materials which is a hand/board ask. If you can use 11 materials you can use 5 typically, making the option to use 11 as unnecessary as hard making a Cxyz without the Rank-Up. Some materials are listed as 2+ which may in fact be any amount but is artificially capped by the Field, like how these Fusions are capped by the Deck.
Modernly in terms of missed cards for this list, there's Cyberstorm access's mascot Firewall dragon singularity. A link 6 that requires a mandatory 3+ effect monsters to summon, meaning the common way to cheat it out is to use three link two effect monsters as the entire material requirement. Other than that you'll be using 4-5 monsters to link into it.
Glad to see Arrival at number one. I really wish people would give it the respect it deserves. Every thread I see it mentioned all that they talk about is how easy it is to take out with a Kaiju
I was surprised to find out that Cyberdark monsters were considered one of the worst GX era archetypes, considering that was also when Roids and Volcanics came out. I’m so glad Cyberdarks got more support. They’re awesome!
Not surprised by the number of "Towers" on the list. I'll say a monster that requires so many materials is only worth it if the pay-off for summoning it is that good. As an aside, Goddess of the Underworld has saved me more than once when playing Master Duel (including one time against a full powered Arrival @Ignister). I keep it in my Pendulum decks just because it's such a good answer against Towers.
Little fact about ''Barbaroid, the Ultimate Battle Machine'': Machine-type ''roid'' monsters include ''Speedroid'' Achtype, not just ''Vehicroids''. So you Can put 1 copy of ''Polymerization'' into deck as back-up plan.
One Copy of Poly? Sure, Thought Would Suggest also having Necro Fusion as a card for the Deck due to the fact it’s easier to just banish the All the cards in Grave for this Monster! Only thing I hate about speedroids in the Wind-Centric effects of some of their monsters! Thankfully not all of them have that limitation.
*GASP* I was one of the people that witnessed him record this on stream. It was quite a relaxing thing to have in the background. Also, @Ignister mains wya Edit: I just realized that he left in the word "gamers" at the end of his description
Underworld Goddess is the bane of my deck. It’s the most common out people (especially Tearlament players) use on my Code Talker deck. Though usually they waste so much material that they can’t push for game after taking out my Access CodeTalker that’s unaffected by card effects.
I’ll always have a soft spot for the original Five Headed Dragon - I legitimately keep him in my Extra Deck as a Super Poly target at all times, just due to how prevalent Dragons are. It’s made that one guy at my locals who plays Dragon Links almost exclusively Mald a lot…
i thought of the card flower cardian lightflare. the deck can bring it out pretty consistently, it has a negate, negates the effects of things it battles, and can summon lightshower when destroyed. if only flower cardians were better overall.
Technically Lightflare is generic, but difficult to make outside Flower Cardians as it requires exactly 5 monsters whose total Levels equal exactly 10. But it would definitely be a noteworthy accomplishment if you manage to summon it without Flower Cardians....
I use Quintet Magician on my Witchcrafter deck. Because Quintet doesn't have targeting protection, his other protection can be turned off by a single Imperm. Haine has an effect that says, "Your opponent cannot target other Spellcaster Monster you control with card effects". So if I have double Haine on the field, I can make my Quintet Magician cannot be targetted by card effect at all
For entry #5, you absolutely cannot revive “Five-Headed Dragon” using “Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon”; “Five-Headed Dragon” has a Summoning Condition which prevents it from being Special Summoned other than Fusion Summon, even if it was properly Summoned.
Number 6 is one of those interesting cases where the anime used the very strategy that would help contribute to a card’s ban/errata. Future Fusion + Five-Headed Dragon was used in GX (it was in un-dubbed Season 4), similar to how Jaiden used Mirage of Nightmare + destroying it to avoid the negative effect.
I feel like Great Magnus should have been an honourable mention for this list - it isn't always brought out using 5 materials, but it's a true nightmare if it is. Sadly, Quants aren't that great of a deck, but it doesn't discount the quality of their boss monster.
Shooting Quasar has to be one of my favorite cards. I played a lot of Tag Force 6 and that was my win con in Fabled, Plant, Junk, and Zombie synchro decks
Top 10 monsters that have "or more" summoning conditions, aka you can theoretically summon them using infinite materials. Example: Wake Up your E Hero, Chimeratech Overdragon, Zeus, Worm Zero, etc.
Yay! Quintet magician made a list! I run Dark magicians as my main deck (non competitive of course!) and I love that card! If you buff it with Mage Power it can be a good beat stick and if you have Staunch Defender and force your opponent to attack it, I can dish out a bunch of damage
Literally the only way I managed to climb the ladder in master duel with @ignisters last month to a decent spot was because most Tearelements decks have no way of beating a 5000 or 6000 attack The Arrival.
I utilized Quintet Magician in my Branded Shaddoll Pile Grass deck, since most Shaddoll monsters are spellcasters, the QM's board wipe effect can be achieved. To cheat out the fusion materials, I used a Chain Material trap card, it allows you to use cards from the deck to do fusion summon but with the cost the fusion materials are being banished. Going 1st, set up Mirrorjade and Branded in Red and Chain Material, during 2nd turn, activate Red CL1 Chain Material CL2, return any Despia from GY then fuse 5 spellcasters Shaddoll from deck, then see the entire opponent's board got wiped and you got 1 tower-like beatstick :)
I’m surprised there wasn’t mention of a recent link 5 Firewall dragon darkfluid Neo Tempest Terahertz. This card can send cyberses from the GY or ED as a quick effect to give itself protection spell/trap negate from the GY and a targeted monster negate. This card will see play in mathmech especially if link decoder comes out but it’s still playable.
I really enjoy my Shaddoll Quintet Magician deck for casual play. Usually plays like Shaddoll but they few times I am able to make Quintet the reaction is priceless.
One of the most ridiculous ways I see people use quintet magician is when they use something like flash fusion with chain material to summon it and since quintet can’t be destroyed by card effect it just stays on the field
One of my favorite gimmicks in the @ignister archetype is how it can create Accesscode talker in its strongest and unstoppable form fairly easily.( Also is the only deck that can do it) 8300 attack(from using the arrival as material) Unaffected by card effects( using Gatatachi @ignister as material) Can attack twice(update Jammer as material). Can destroy up to 7 cards(if dark infant @ignister is set to divine).
Five headed link Dragon is *extremely* easy to make in Generaids, for two monsters. Since the field spell makes up to 5 tokens on your opponents turn you can use I:P Masquraina to summon Five-Headed link dragon on your opponents turn. And given generaids use a lot of monsters with different types, you may even get to use the board wipe effect. It's by no means a really good interaction, but it is somewhere that Link dragon is VERY easy to bring out. The same with Goddess of the closed world actually, because Generaids very easily get quite a few monsters summoned on your opponents turn, even if you cannot use the tokens. Makes it a quickplay Kaiju too!
To Shawn li: Sorry, youtube bugged out and made me delete the comment. In response to the end Phase maintenance cost, yes it is Iffy. It would more be used as an "Oh god save me for a turn or two" panic button then anything. Or at least this is how i have used it. Though to be fair i have long since removed it from my Generaid deck for that reason.
Built a deck back in the day that could 1st turn a Shooting Quasar 1st turn about 90% of the time. The other 10% it would hit the board 2nd turn. It was a wild time.
List ideas: Top 10 cards that can't be negated/responded to Top 10 cards that could come off the banlist. Top 10 cards that see play outside of their archetype Top 10 cards that don't support their archetypes Top 10 extra deck monsters that require other extra deck monsters as materials Top 10 splashable extra deck monsters for each type Top 10 worst mill cards Top 10 cards that show actual cards Top 10 stall cards. Top 10 generic pendulum cards. Top 10 special conditions in the games. More Rescue Rabbit, please.
I'm offended that the 5 headed link was placed above quintet. I've used quintet in surprise plays a lot in DM, Gravekeeper's, and any other spellcaster deck I've ever run. The rest of the list I agree with, though, haha.
I wouldn't put it on the list, though. Why? Because there's a little monster called King of the Swamp that can help you get it out WAY easier. Just grab the original BLS, KotS, a Poly, and you're good to go. Thanks to King of the Swamp's effect, it counts as a Fusion Material that's mentioned by name (in this case, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon) for a Fusion Summon. Hence Dragon Master Knight can be made with 2 mats instead of 4-5.
This video lacking some of monster like: - Infernoid Tierra - Firewall Dragon singularity - any Expurrely monster - And our most favourite monster Number: 86 Rhongonymiad. Fyi, you can cheat fusion summoning those monster with 5 materials or more with card like "Chain Material".
Funny how quintet magician was “hard to summon” and without even realizing it i was able to make it very easily with a grave keepers deck 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️ all because one of the monsters has the fusion effect if Necrovalley is on the field..won a few games for a while with this deck and basically he was my closer/finisher
Good deck for Arrival other the ignister is the pendulum deck solfachord as most of their monsters are different attributes, can summon a big board with the pendulum summon on top if you scaled with a solfachord monster all Solfachord pendulum summons cannot be negated meaning other monster you have can be also summoned along with them. Leaving for am easy link summon of Arrival
you can use sales ban on 5-headed link dragon and make it so you dont have to pay the cost and you can have an unnaffected 5k beater kinda like with Rhongo
I actually do use Five-Headed Link Dragon in my Super Quant deck. It mostly serves as a backup plan in case Magnus somehow gets beaten, since Magnus gives me three monsters when sent to the graveyard. Since it's not that hard to get two more monsters out in a Super Quant deck, and one of the more common ways to break a tower like Magnus is to use a Kaiju, I have a prety good chance of getting FLD out (even managed to keep it around until the end of my opponent's 5th turn). Of course, in terms of Link monsters that are probably more beneficial to get out, it would be Infinitrack Fortress Megaclops over Five-Headed Link Dragon.
Yeah, but in gx it went back to being a fusion monster. What I really want is an archetype for them. We nearly got something like that with dragon rulers, but they got banned so now the closest we have to an elemental dragon archetype is dragon maids.
Because the requirement would be something ridiculous like "Tribute 5 monsters from your hand or field whose total Levels equal exactly 12". Plus it couldn't attack the turn it was Summoned in the anime.
I wouldn't mind, but I first encountered that Underworld Goddess on Master Duel and found it be a pain! Then I bought one of my many 2022 Tins and pulled one and was taken aback, as you can probably imagine! Then I bought another Tin and pulled a second! I know... And when I saw this video, I immediately thought of Shooting Quasar Dragon! But then it came up and Cosmic Blazar Dragon came to mind, who requires the exact same materials! Then I thought of Red Nova and Supernova Dragons! And, yes, I can't wait for that new Jack Structure Deck, how did you guess!
Me: *Spends the whole turn and all of my resources summoning a six material Arrival Cyberse* The Gamaciel that hasn't been main decked aince 2018 in my opponents hand:
Future fusion can be paired with Quintet Magician & Exodia pieces to do Exodia retrain plays(Necross, Incarnate). However, this is only recommended if you have a way to search the last piece or revive it for the summon of Exodia Incarnate. Also it’s a bit slow.
I actually know a deck that can allow you to summon five headed link dragon pretty quickly. Dragon maids. They have all the materials for it, and can get out fusions quickly as well right after for a full board wipe instant kill.
Underworld Goddes in a Kuriboh deck it's just hilarious......especially after ur opponent just used all it's resources to get read of ur Topologic Bamer dragon linkt to Knightmare Phoenix,Unicorn and Cerberus
Speaking of Link VRains cards, what about Firewall Darkfluid? That's another five material Link Monster with a powerful effect, and one who've played alongside Arrival for some fun.
Problem is, it takes WAY too much setup to be good. You need a setup completely dedicated to getting it out at max power. The main reason why that's a problem is that your opponent knows exactly what you intend to do, and can just sabotage Darkfluid when it drops. Then you're screwed. But it is an honorable mention at least.
underworld goddess was a mistake imho. allowing a "tribute enemy monster" effect on an extra deck monster evne if its justone is inevitably gonna be problematic later on especially whe nthe resulting monster is immune ot everything that doesnt specifically target + it has an omni negate.
The main thing with her is, you need to get monsters for her. Often times it can be difficult to get 4 monsters in field with an established board of your opponent. I think it’s very fair
quintent is pretty easy to get out. magicians rod, soul, dm himself, and dm girl, and then 1 other which could be artemis linked off with rod or mahad.

How about top 10 monsters that can be made with any amount of material of your choice, like the Worm fusion or various Cyber Dragon fusions or Rongo Bongo?
I think Rongo would be the best by a landslide unless I forgot anybody.
Even taking Gossip Shadow out of the picture it's not unimaginable for a deck to play to a 3+ mat Rongo which is why I can't picture it being released.
"Any amount" "Rongo" how are you going above 6 smh
@@randomcatname7792 That's a full board. 6 Sams have a Trap card for that achievement. Cydra Fusions are capped by your deck. Can't show up with that 1000 card deck from the past anymore since 40-60 became mandatory.
@@runningoncylinders3829 the point was that 6 barely cuts it for "any number" when there is a very large amount that can at least use 11
@@randomcatname7792 I'm refuting that point directly. You could likely find a way to make Quasar with 11 total materials, but any more than 3, "a 3-mat", is pushing towards an upper limit of investment. This video above looks for 5 materials which is a hand/board ask. If you can use 11 materials you can use 5 typically, making the option to use 11 as unnecessary as hard making a Cxyz without the Rank-Up. Some materials are listed as 2+ which may in fact be any amount but is artificially capped by the Field, like how these Fusions are capped by the Deck.
I stopped playing this game like 10 years ago but this has become my favorite channel i love your videos
Modernly in terms of missed cards for this list, there's Cyberstorm access's mascot Firewall dragon singularity. A link 6 that requires a mandatory 3+ effect monsters to summon, meaning the common way to cheat it out is to use three link two effect monsters as the entire material requirement. Other than that you'll be using 4-5 monsters to link into it.
Correction about Shooting quasar dragon: WHEN not IF this card leaves the field.
I just love dropping goddes of the underworld using one of their monster feel so good getting rid a combo extender or a boss monster
Quintet Magician is shockingly easy to bring out in Duel Links using a Nekroz/Advanced Ritual Art engine, it builds a really solid OTK deck.
Underworld is such a goated card
Quintet is one of the boss monsters of spellcaster decks in master duel that are good at swarming.
Glad to see Arrival at number one. I really wish people would give it the respect it deserves. Every thread I see it mentioned all that they talk about is how easy it is to take out with a Kaiju
It's utterly monstrous for the fact it needs to be Kaiju'd to be outed. If it can't be outed, it might as well say, 'you win the game'.
'Firewall Dragon Darkfluid - Neo Tempest Terahertz' is another possible spot on this list.
I was surprised to find out that Cyberdark monsters were considered one of the worst GX era archetypes, considering that was also when Roids and Volcanics came out. I’m so glad Cyberdarks got more support. They’re awesome!
Not surprised by the number of "Towers" on the list. I'll say a monster that requires so many materials is only worth it if the pay-off for summoning it is that good.
As an aside, Goddess of the Underworld has saved me more than once when playing Master Duel (including one time against a full powered Arrival @Ignister). I keep it in my Pendulum decks just because it's such a good answer against Towers.
Little fact about ''Barbaroid, the Ultimate Battle Machine'': Machine-type ''roid'' monsters include ''Speedroid'' Achtype, not just ''Vehicroids''. So you Can put 1 copy of ''Polymerization'' into deck as back-up plan.
One Copy of Poly? Sure, Thought Would Suggest also having Necro Fusion as a card for the Deck due to the fact it’s easier to just banish the All the cards in Grave for this Monster!
Only thing I hate about speedroids in the Wind-Centric effects of some of their monsters! Thankfully not all of them have that limitation.
*GASP* I was one of the people that witnessed him record this on stream. It was quite a relaxing thing to have in the background. Also, @Ignister mains wya
Edit: I just realized that he left in the word "gamers" at the end of his description
Ayyeeee!!!
Underworld Goddess is the bane of my deck. It’s the most common out people (especially Tearlament players) use on my Code Talker deck. Though usually they waste so much material that they can’t push for game after taking out my Access CodeTalker that’s unaffected by card effects.
Unaffected? It says your opponent cannot response while Transcode activates its effect.
@@Hcheeza I'm using Gatchiri support on my deck which lets me target one of my Cyberse monsters to be unaffected by card effects.
@@Hcheeza That's Accesscode that has the "cannot respond" clause, not Transcode.
I’ll always have a soft spot for the original Five Headed Dragon - I legitimately keep him in my Extra Deck as a Super Poly target at all times, just due to how prevalent Dragons are. It’s made that one guy at my locals who plays Dragon Links almost exclusively Mald a lot…
The whole 5+ materials stuff reminded me of Super Fusion "God".
i thought of the card flower cardian lightflare. the deck can bring it out pretty consistently, it has a negate, negates the effects of things it battles, and can summon lightshower when destroyed. if only flower cardians were better overall.
Technically Lightflare is generic, but difficult to make outside Flower Cardians as it requires exactly 5 monsters whose total Levels equal exactly 10. But it would definitely be a noteworthy accomplishment if you manage to summon it without Flower Cardians....
@@cameraredeye3115 oh yeah, i forgot that all the flower carian boss monsters are generic as long as you only use level 2s for all of them.
Unknown synchron and agent of creation-venus
Gravekeepers can easily bring out Quintet with Spiritualist.
I run it in mine and it is a powerhouse
I run it in mine in Duel Links.
It's only "easy" in duel links
I use Quintet Magician on my Witchcrafter deck. Because Quintet doesn't have targeting protection, his other protection can be turned off by a single Imperm. Haine has an effect that says, "Your opponent cannot target other Spellcaster Monster you control with card effects". So if I have double Haine on the field, I can make my Quintet Magician cannot be targetted by card effect at all
Always have Underworld Goddess for BS monsters like Arrival 😂
For entry #5, you absolutely cannot revive “Five-Headed Dragon” using “Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon”; “Five-Headed Dragon” has a Summoning Condition which prevents it from being Special Summoned other than Fusion Summon, even if it was properly Summoned.
Number 6 is one of those interesting cases where the anime used the very strategy that would help contribute to a card’s ban/errata. Future Fusion + Five-Headed Dragon was used in GX (it was in un-dubbed Season 4), similar to how Jaiden used Mirage of Nightmare + destroying it to avoid the negative effect.
I feel like Great Magnus should have been an honourable mention for this list - it isn't always brought out using 5 materials, but it's a true nightmare if it is.
Sadly, Quants aren't that great of a deck, but it doesn't discount the quality of their boss monster.
Shooting Quasar has to be one of my favorite cards. I played a lot of Tag Force 6 and that was my win con in Fabled, Plant, Junk, and Zombie synchro decks
Top 10 monsters that have "or more" summoning conditions, aka you can theoretically summon them using infinite materials. Example: Wake Up your E Hero, Chimeratech Overdragon, Zeus, Worm Zero, etc.
Yay! Quintet magician made a list! I run Dark magicians as my main deck (non competitive of course!) and I love that card! If you buff it with Mage Power it can be a good beat stick and if you have Staunch Defender and force your opponent to attack it, I can dish out a bunch of damage
Literally the only way I managed to climb the ladder in master duel with @ignisters last month to a decent spot was because most Tearelements decks have no way of beating a 5000 or 6000 attack The Arrival.
Hence why i run underworld goddess, wins me so many duels against towers type monsters.
@@Big1nz yeah, that and Kaijus are the most consistent way to deal with them.
I utilized Quintet Magician in my Branded Shaddoll Pile Grass deck, since most Shaddoll monsters are spellcasters, the QM's board wipe effect can be achieved. To cheat out the fusion materials, I used a Chain Material trap card, it allows you to use cards from the deck to do fusion summon but with the cost the fusion materials are being banished. Going 1st, set up Mirrorjade and Branded in Red and Chain Material, during 2nd turn, activate Red CL1 Chain Material CL2, return any Despia from GY then fuse 5 spellcasters Shaddoll from deck, then see the entire opponent's board got wiped and you got 1 tower-like beatstick :)
Seeing White Woman Jumpscare in the thumbnail was too damn spoopy, pls be more considerate in the future.
I love to Run Barbaroid in my Speedroid deck with Necrofusion
I’m surprised there wasn’t mention of a recent link 5 Firewall dragon darkfluid Neo Tempest Terahertz. This card can send cyberses from the GY or ED as a quick effect to give itself protection spell/trap negate from the GY and a targeted monster negate. This card will see play in mathmech especially if link decoder comes out but it’s still playable.
Firewall Dragon Singularity is also Link 6 and it's a huge monster despite not being as good as pre-errata Firewall Dragon.
Tbf pre-errata Firewall Dragon was insane...
Never forget a future fusion+dragon's mirror back in 2007 for a five headed dragon before even using a normal summon
I really enjoy my Shaddoll Quintet Magician deck for casual play. Usually plays like Shaddoll but they few times I am able to make Quintet the reaction is priceless.
i love quintet magician! the stars have to align, but when they do, it's a game ender.
One of the most ridiculous ways I see people use quintet magician is when they use something like flash fusion with chain material to summon it and since quintet can’t be destroyed by card effect it just stays on the field
One of my favorite gimmicks in the @ignister archetype is how it can create Accesscode talker in its strongest and unstoppable form fairly easily.( Also is the only deck that can do it)
8300 attack(from using the arrival as material)
Unaffected by card effects( using Gatatachi @ignister as material)
Can attack twice(update Jammer as material).
Can destroy up to 7 cards(if dark infant @ignister is set to divine).
Shoutout to quintent magician, the board wipe tough to pulloff but it can help
Five headed link Dragon is *extremely* easy to make in Generaids, for two monsters. Since the field spell makes up to 5 tokens on your opponents turn you can use I:P Masquraina to summon Five-Headed link dragon on your opponents turn. And given generaids use a lot of monsters with different types, you may even get to use the board wipe effect. It's by no means a really good interaction, but it is somewhere that Link dragon is VERY easy to bring out.
The same with Goddess of the closed world actually, because Generaids very easily get quite a few monsters summoned on your opponents turn, even if you cannot use the tokens. Makes it a quickplay Kaiju too!
To Shawn li: Sorry, youtube bugged out and made me delete the comment. In response to the end Phase maintenance cost, yes it is Iffy. It would more be used as an "Oh god save me for a turn or two" panic button then anything. Or at least this is how i have used it.
Though to be fair i have long since removed it from my Generaid deck for that reason.
Fur hire as well
Built a deck back in the day that could 1st turn a Shooting Quasar 1st turn about 90% of the time. The other 10% it would hit the board 2nd turn. It was a wild time.
List ideas:
Top 10 cards that can't be negated/responded to
Top 10 cards that could come off the banlist.
Top 10 cards that see play outside of their archetype
Top 10 cards that don't support their archetypes
Top 10 extra deck monsters that require other extra deck monsters as materials
Top 10 splashable extra deck monsters for each type
Top 10 worst mill cards
Top 10 cards that show actual cards
Top 10 stall cards.
Top 10 generic pendulum cards.
Top 10 special conditions in the games.
More Rescue Rabbit, please.
Banlust one was already made IIRC
I mean, boarbow is cheating, ain't no one summoning through the requirement
Darkness Metal Dragon can't bring Five-Headed Dragon back from the GY. It says it "must be fusion summoned."
I used to bring quintent magician out in duel links with a gravekeeper deck worked really good
I'm offended that the 5 headed link was placed above quintet. I've used quintet in surprise plays a lot in DM, Gravekeeper's, and any other spellcaster deck I've ever run. The rest of the list I agree with, though, haha.
Dragon Master Knight kind of fits the criteria, as it requires 3 BEWD to make the Ultimate Dragon first.
I wouldn't put it on the list, though. Why? Because there's a little monster called King of the Swamp that can help you get it out WAY easier. Just grab the original BLS, KotS, a Poly, and you're good to go.
Thanks to King of the Swamp's effect, it counts as a Fusion Material that's mentioned by name (in this case, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon) for a Fusion Summon. Hence Dragon Master Knight can be made with 2 mats instead of 4-5.
This video lacking some of monster like:
- Infernoid Tierra
- Firewall Dragon singularity
- any Expurrely monster
- And our most favourite monster Number: 86 Rhongonymiad.
Fyi, you can cheat fusion summoning those monster with 5 materials or more with card like "Chain Material".
Quintet magician has come in clutch before in my DM deck for MD
Funny how quintet magician was “hard to summon” and without even realizing it i was able to make it very easily with a grave keepers deck 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️ all because one of the monsters has the fusion effect if Necrovalley is on the field..won a few games for a while with this deck and basically he was my closer/finisher
Good deck for Arrival other the ignister is the pendulum deck solfachord as most of their monsters are different attributes, can summon a big board with the pendulum summon on top if you scaled with a solfachord monster all Solfachord pendulum summons cannot be negated meaning other monster you have can be also summoned along with them. Leaving for am easy link summon of Arrival
you can use sales ban on 5-headed link dragon and make it so you dont have to pay the cost and you can have an unnaffected 5k beater kinda like with Rhongo
Thx for the info 😤👍
Ah Quintet Magician. Basically a hail mary for Spellcaster decks since you can bring it late game out of nowhere using Magicalized Fusion
I actually do use Five-Headed Link Dragon in my Super Quant deck. It mostly serves as a backup plan in case Magnus somehow gets beaten, since Magnus gives me three monsters when sent to the graveyard. Since it's not that hard to get two more monsters out in a Super Quant deck, and one of the more common ways to break a tower like Magnus is to use a Kaiju, I have a prety good chance of getting FLD out (even managed to keep it around until the end of my opponent's 5th turn).
Of course, in terms of Link monsters that are probably more beneficial to get out, it would be Infinitrack Fortress Megaclops over Five-Headed Link Dragon.
Five Headed Dragon was a ritual in the DM anime which makes me wonder why they haven't made a ritual version of it yet?
Yeah, but in gx it went back to being a fusion monster. What I really want is an archetype for them. We nearly got something like that with dragon rulers, but they got banned so now the closest we have to an elemental dragon archetype is dragon maids.
Because the requirement would be something ridiculous like "Tribute 5 monsters from your hand or field whose total Levels equal exactly 12". Plus it couldn't attack the turn it was Summoned in the anime.
I used to run Magician Girls with Lightsworn for Quintet Magician, was a lot of fun
I wouldn't mind, but I first encountered that Underworld Goddess on Master Duel and found it be a pain! Then I bought one of my many 2022 Tins and pulled one and was taken aback, as you can probably imagine! Then I bought another Tin and pulled a second! I know...
And when I saw this video, I immediately thought of Shooting Quasar Dragon! But then it came up and Cosmic Blazar Dragon came to mind, who requires the exact same materials! Then I thought of Red Nova and Supernova Dragons! And, yes, I can't wait for that new Jack Structure Deck, how did you guess!
I loved having Five Headed Link Dragon in my Black Garden Token Swap deck
I used to cheat out quintet magician with advanced ritual art back in the early days of duel links it was hilarious
Me: *Spends the whole turn and all of my resources summoning a six material Arrival Cyberse*
The Gamaciel that hasn't been main decked aince 2018 in my opponents hand:
Nice link boss monster u got there
* proceeds to special summon cyberdragon and contact fusing into megafleet *
Future fusion can be paired with Quintet Magician & Exodia pieces to do Exodia retrain plays(Necross, Incarnate). However, this is only recommended if you have a way to search the last piece or revive it for the summon of Exodia Incarnate. Also it’s a bit slow.
I remember playing a six samurai 29384 negate build where I also ended on the five headed link dragon. Was pretty fun
I actually know a deck that can allow you to summon five headed link dragon pretty quickly. Dragon maids. They have all the materials for it, and can get out fusions quickly as well right after for a full board wipe instant kill.
How about Top 10 cards/archetypes that could use “Dragon’s Mirror” but doesn’t, like Shiranui or Dragon link
Underworld Goddes in a Kuriboh deck it's just hilarious......especially after ur opponent just used all it's resources to get read of ur Topologic Bamer dragon linkt to Knightmare Phoenix,Unicorn and Cerberus
what about a video ranking monsters that CAN use 5+ materials, but not require 5+?
Speaking of Link VRains cards, what about Firewall Darkfluid? That's another five material Link Monster with a powerful effect, and one who've played alongside Arrival for some fun.
Problem is, it takes WAY too much setup to be good. You need a setup completely dedicated to getting it out at max power. The main reason why that's a problem is that your opponent knows exactly what you intend to do, and can just sabotage Darkfluid when it drops. Then you're screwed.
But it is an honorable mention at least.
I see Underworld Goddess and the Five-Headed Dragons, I click.
Top 10 cards that had restrictions on being used as x material/tribute that became worthless when new cards arrived
The Arrival mentioned.
underworld goddess was a mistake imho.
allowing a "tribute enemy monster" effect on an extra deck monster evne if its justone is inevitably gonna be problematic later on especially whe nthe resulting monster is immune ot everything that doesnt specifically target + it has an omni negate.
The main thing with her is, you need to get monsters for her. Often times it can be difficult to get 4 monsters in field with an established board of your opponent. I think it’s very fair
I run quintet in my dark magician deck, but I usually link black luster soldier of chaos (best card) instead of going for the 5 spell caster summon
quintent is pretty easy to get out. magicians rod, soul, dm himself, and dm girl, and then 1 other which could be artemis linked off with rod or mahad.
Fun Fact: Pre-Errata Five headed dragon had an effect where if took no battle damage from non-light monsters.
Quintet magician is easy to summon in a fortune lady deck 😅 really funny to whip out.
