  • In the ecosystem of Yu-Gi-Oh, certain cards have their time in the sun. Among Monsters, Traps, and Spells, monsters have enjoyed constant success in the competitive TCG, OCG, and Master Duel landscape. But some monsters did not transition to the modern card game so seamlessly. Today, we look at flip monsters, monsters in the past and playground and how they fare in 2023.

    Krawlers would've been a good flip archetype that punishes the opponent for beating over your monsters outside of battle.... except that their floating effects dont work except when face up... you know, the flip deck, famous for having face up monsters..

  • @snes90
    @snes90 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    I think the easiest way of thinking about it is simple math. Flip monsters always need *at least* one other card to help trigger their effects faster or on demand. A dude like Kashtira Fenrir doesn't need any additional cards to do its thing.

    An issue I find is that the many different flip archetypes have cards that would work fantastically as support, but are split across archetypes.
    Notable is World Legacy Pawns. A card that allows you to flip up or flip down any monster you control OPT… but only when you control a Krawler.
    What sucks is that generic flip support is great, but flip decks can’t really run generic support due to how slow they are unless searching and summoning is involved. If cards like Terror in the Hidden City (technically a Subterror card, but it’s not searchable) and Junk Sleep had cards in-archetype for flip decks, things would be a lot easier for them.
    People can argue against this for “homogenizing” the playstyle, but Synchro decks usually have the same endboard no matter what you play, so it’s no excuse. Plus, each flip deck has different end goals, so things’ll remain varied.
    Of course, if Master Rule 6 allows flip monsters to be treated as Trap Cards during the opponent’s turn, that’d help a great deal.

    • @Spinwizard196
      @Spinwizard196 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You dont need to control a Krawler for World Legacy Pawns! It's Pawns' second effect that needs a krawler to activate, and you have to shuffle it into the deck from the graveyard, so it doesn't have to be on the field.

    I would love to see a big Yugituber make an hypothetical format or series like Junior Journey where Flip Monsters worked the way trap cards do, and you could flip them up whenever you wanted after the turn they are set. They would still not be powerful enough to be relevant in the modern day IMO, but I feel like if Konami officially made that change, they could design cool ideas and archetypes involving that.

    So i have been a FLIP player for years. Played WORMS when they first came out, switched to Subterror, Tindangle, and the Krawlers. Ive told my friend this before....DEUS EX Krawler is the greatest Flip monster ever created in the history of Flip. He is the only card in the entire game that can Activate its effects in facedown position and also has a Built in "Applied Effect" so he cannot miss timing when he flips faceup after beting targeted. If other flip monsters had this mechanic, they would no shit be Meta

    I've played a lot of Edison, and flip was still good there. You HAVE to respect Ryko, as well as Snowman Eater and the Hamster who sets up ryko from deck. The last time a flip monster was viable was with Geargiarmor in 2014 who is basically a once per turn with delay; no, Shadolls are not a flip archetype, is a mill archetype who has flip as backup.
    I would say flip kinda started to die with synchros, because flip monsters are not useful as extra deck material, and their best support being Hamster, a level 4 who brings up level 3 or lower AKA not an XYZ card. Another problem is the "Battle phase no longer matters", which flip monsters relied on.

    Ok, first of all, Konami should unite those wanderers called "flipped face-up" under the flip banner, Subterror Link (Wait, they have a link?) not interacting with classics like Snowman or Ghostrick is discouraging...
    Second, where's my waifu Tindangle Angel? Being an anime deck during link era no less, yet managing to make such hype duels shouldn't be forgotten... Unlike Meiru (Prediction Princess) Akira Zaizen was more relevant to the story, so at least they deserve those sweet anime cards still on hold (Salute for any Armatos Legios / Hydradriver / Battledrone fan out there)
    Third: Konami should be aware of odd balls like Guard Dog if they ever release Flip support... Prediction Princess was the prime example of it, yet they're a ritual (Bruh...) who must run lots of bricks and struggle against a single, well placed handtrap; and Subterror succession can virtually search any (Earth for now) monster with proper deckbuilding
    Who knows, several of the Duel terminal monsters are flips (Shaddoll, Krawler, Worms), and even fan favorites like Penguins made a comeback (...) by giving coherent support
