I think it is still a bit sad to see that Konami didn’t give Ancient Gears anything to do going first. A new Fusion Boss could have been really interesting now that we have Duel.
A cool addition I play is Therion Discolloseum and any floodgate fieldspell you want. If you combo with Sargas and Revo. you can search discolloseum , search regulus. Later pop the fieldspell with Ancient Fairy dragon to search a fieldspell. You can give your opponent Secret village + Enlightment Pala. Or just Zombie world or Necrovalley. At full combo you can before you Search with gear gigant X,you can summon regulus equip Anchor drill you linked away for balista. Then use Gear Gigant search Revo activate sargas to bounce your Anchor Drill. Now you can special summon anchor drill with ancient fairy to into another Rank 8 or Rank 4.
One additional tech card for ancient gear: Magical dog. What the dog do? Its Hand/GY effect of bouncing an open faced spell/trap from your opponent to special himself is neat and since it is an earth machine (with 500 attack, so Box-Searchable) it can be used for Ballista. It is neat discard fodder for Dark Golem or Gearframe. Bonus: It is a tuner, which in combination with Reactor Dragon turns Urgent Scedule into a 1 card Baron (1 + 9 = 10) which sets up dog for the GY. [NOTE: As Froque17 pointed out: Baron is banned.] More of a Budget-orientated tech card.
@@Froque17 Huh, dang you are right. How did that one go completely past me? Well there is allways Borrelload Savage Dragon ... hold on let me check. Jup banned aswell. Well I can only say: I am actually glad. Despite having used these cards, they produced so many samey endboards so not even mad I can no longer use them.
@@SpeCiiaLAssAss1N13 Going first: It is mere discard fodder, but it sets up Turn 3, as it acts as an extender to summon ballista. Going second it is some nice flood-gate removal and additional body. Either way: It is worth putting in one Dog (and only one Dog! Because it is once per duel). Just because the deck tends to lack Backrow Hate.
44:55 I think it‘s important to activate Fortress because when Howitzer is getting destroyed in opponent’s turn, he summons dark golem and so on…, and our opponent cannot react at all those effects and he can’t destroy Dark Golem with effects, and not every meta deck can destroy a golem by battle, who can’t get target because we summoned it in opponent’s turn
I think the secret is...just keep throwing things at the wall until something sticks If nothing sticks then store it in a place where you can revisit it later when you think of something else😅
what I've noticed is that even if you don't have Advance in the game, you can still use Sargas effect to return to hand Regulus's equip monster, if you equip a tanker/frame/wyvern you got follow up just from that.
random thing I noticed, on the ancient gear advance combo going 1st if you wait to use the gear gigant effect until you have sargas you can add back the regulus equiped monster
so i see the gameplay is so much better if your opponent has a mosngter on board. maybe some side deck cards are liek the "gen" and ken" cards, and we would draw cards in addt. to them. And i was wondering: you play sargas in this list, wouldnt be aboslute insane to play then discoloseum. Its another field spell, which makes ancient fairy life + set rotation. its another non monster card which you can pop with catapult + it gives you grind game an extra plus + it protects your monster destroyed by battle. lets say, you opp ss diabelster, ativate eff to set, you negate with apo, they will attack over you apo, and you easily protect apo and they wastet they battle phase.
Crazy what this deck accomplishes going 1st, cause one of my issues with the deck, it just couldn't go first without outside archetype help. And then if I didn't push for the OTK, you'd be in an awkward spot where you have zero interaction and watch your opponent sweep up. It's nice that the new support ties a lot of stuff together (and this is without Statue). Anway, solid combos mate! What are your thoughts on Thrust in the main?
I’ve really liked machine decks. I remember playing mecha phantom and it was pretty fun summoning level 10 beat sticks. I recently did machina/infinitetrac and thats been fun too. Again, just summoning big beat sticks that is hard to destroy. Now I’ve been itching to try ancient golems with the new support. So this videos helps me a lot to see what I want to play and what to run
bit late to the party but ancient gears work supper well with number XYZ cards. I've got an OTK out of this deck ON FIRST TURN. thought its very tight to do.
I understand wanting to summon Megaton because it floats but since you are using Duel anyways to summon it, theoretically wouldnt it be better to summon Ultimate Golem since its much bigger and does piercing which is great for getting past for example snake eyes walling up after flamberge resolves. 3 swings with 5k (if you used tanker) and attack position doesn't matter.
So basically they don't want want ancient drill drill to be broken so whenever they make a searcher they make it prevent setting. If you see the only cards with the set restriction are the ones that search. It's kind of annoying tbh that they won't just ban drill preemptively instead of having to handicap all the searchers but it is what it is
There isnt a single ancient gear with a quick effect and the spell set off drill cannot be used that turn. I cant imagine there being many useful drill targets. If labrynth can get multiple cards that set any normal trap in the game, I think giving ancient gear this wouldn't be terrible, especially when we all have thrust access now.
Which is incredibly disappointing because one of the new support cards, which you can specifically search with Advance, Wyvern and Dark Golem is a TRAP CARD, meaning you can not activate it this turn, can not set it to activate it the next turn, but rather have to search it, wait 1 turn, then set it, wait ANOTHER turn to activate it. It is Ultimate Moth levels of slow. Which is rather sad because the new trap is rather amazing. Overcompensating for Ancient gear drill is also rather silly during times where you can face a deck that sets 3, passes and during your standby phase clears your entire hand and goes +3 (looking at you labyrinth). Basically: They stick to a restriction for silly reasons only to release 1 card (commander) that circumnavigates it, while other decks are not even restricted to making combo plays only during their turn.
@@TCGNistro spells tend to be stronger than traps, and im pretty sure it doesnt restrict you to set a quick play spell too. It isnt really good, but the potential gives konami a headache
I'd have to say, I don't know enough about supporting archetypes to have any sembolance of criticism over your going first idea, but your going second isn't polished enough. You give megaton too much credit because of its floating effect. It has 1100 less attack than Ultimate, meaning 3300 less damage, which is a whole 4th attack from megaton. The floating effect is far too situational, to be viable. Anything getting rid of it tends to be send to grave, bounce to hand, banish, etc. Very rarely have I come across a deck destroying it with a card effect. Also, ancient gear duel can be used to fuse during the battle phase, so after you attack with ancient gear golem/ancient gear dark golem, is when you should use ancient gear duel to fuse into ultimate ancient gear golem. On the other hand, I enjoyed the use of revolution synchron and I think I moght side in the synchro package.
This video was recorded almost a month ago at this point but I do admit ultimate is better in practice and megaton isn't necessary in the deck, so you can save the Ed space.
"also reactor dragon has a sword" that random observation killed me😂
Here to say congrats to ancient gear on cooking fiendsmith snake eyes
I think it is still a bit sad to see that Konami didn’t give Ancient Gears anything to do going first. A new Fusion Boss could have been really interesting now that we have Duel.
Well we do have howitzer
But thats just not that good of a turn 1
True, we do have howitzer and we are getting the once per turn s/t dragon negator too.
Let's hope we eventually get the arc v dog fusions and the chaos and scrap fusion spells that fixes this problem.
I wish we get an Ancient Gear Dragon Fusion.
I don't want to see Ancient Gear with multiple feets or an Ancient machine dog with many heads.
As a strictly ancient gear player who has been running proxies of the dragon and statue, you're really nailing all of this on the head. So accurate

I dont have time to watch rn but anyways commenting for algorithm lol. Love anything that fusion summons, hope the new stuff makes it usable
I think you'll find gear somewhat adequate in strategy and ability to go for game just lacking in versatility

ancient gear based

Yeah in practice Ultimate is always the preferred summon off duel especially since it'll have 3 hits anyways
First off , I love the videos. Favorite sport... Baseball.
Might play either galaxy eyes or gears when their support comes out (probably galaxy)
Ancient gear is crazy

this....this will be my guide tocthe deck! 😅
Anceint gears actually have a decent match up against tenpai. And they just are really fun
If there was a consistent way to summon Chaos Giant during their battle phase we'd never lose🤣
Do you think Ancient Gears will become a strong rogue deck once Statue comes out?
I believe Statue solves the decks consistency issues going 1st and 2nd and could optimize our lists to give us more space for non engine

what do you think about the new ancient gear statue? can it fit in the deck?
When statue comes out we can remove ancient gear frame altogether
Going 2nd becomes so easy we might have a chance against meta
> hoping the opponent has no handtraps
my brother in christ, almost half of any deck is handtraps...
That's where Fortress comes in, but we're just going over the lines.
@@TCGNistro ok
Does Veiler or Imperm make a difference? Isnt Imperm better since it can't be Called?
@@TheFizio Imperm is the better card overall since it can be used overall going 1st or 2nd, as a go 2nd deck that's the priority
