Well, to be fair, Konami had a poll of which structure decks would everyone like to see made, and Ice Barrier and Charmers were in the top 3. So, blame the fandom I guess?
There's already a Pendulum Magician structure deck, what do you mean? Look, Endymion are pendulums and magicians... that has to be close enough, right?
@@MarvelGeekify actually no. Ice barrier was never in the top 3. Shadoll won the poll, sacred beasts got 2nd and charmers got 3rd. 4th was actually crystal beasts.
Dogmatika is definitely a great engine for the Charmers, as you said Ecclesia is perfect as she fits the requirement and while using the trap to summon her, you can search for Fleurdelis and then special summon her on your opponent's turn right away for disruptions
I think what they managed to do with the structure deck is fine. Charmers were barely an archetype before and the new support at least turns them into a functional and playable deck. Not a *good* one necessarily, but I don't think anyone was actually expecting much to begin with. It's perfectly decent
Exactly. Im happy that we finally got more supports for them, even though I would havent wanted more than just 5 new cards since Sacred Beast and Ice Barriers have and are getting about 8-10 new cards which doesnt add up if Shaddolls didnt get that amount either). I think with what we have now and from the two additional cards from Phantom Rage, we will definitely see more Charmer supports in the future and would definitely make the deck more aggresive in its build
True! I have been playtesting the deck (it is my first deck returning to Yu-Gi-Oh) and it can put out 5k attackers and op interruptions. I started my TH-cam Channel with it, check it out if you have the time to see the deck profile th-cam.com/video/WEahyqCj4qM/w-d-xo.html and some games I have recorded th-cam.com/video/lCEA6Z_-4Gc/w-d-xo.html
just bought this as my first deck, barely know how to play. What booster packs should I get to pimp up this structure deck... ?? Help please I am a noob
Honestly this deck along with ice barriers and sacred beasts just proves that your vote really does matter cause Konami will stick to the theme of whatever the strategy was originally rather than make them actually good.
Yep... konami doesnt care. And ya mean shadoll not ice barrier. Ice barrier is part of the redux line of structure decks, like machina revolt, lair of darkness, and the ocg exclusive gemini amd dragunity decks
Konami has really been screwing the pooch this year with the upcoming structure decks. Konami needs to stop changing card lists unless there is a banned card over here. Konami needs to start making the archetype support that these structure decks give, At Minimum, Tier 2-3-Rogue Contender level support. Ontop of that, we need more meta staple and side deck staple reprints more often in these structure decks, instead of pointless reprints of cards that are pennys these days. This worked very well for them in 2019 when every structure deck that came out; Salamangreat, Rokkets, and Endymion, all had competitive success, and 2020 this year with Shaddolls, Machina and Dragunity(which we may or may not get next april) to an extent. Nobody was expecting anything from Sacred Beasts, but they finally gave the deck a playable stratedgy; Which makes me question why the hell they weren’t trying more with Charmers, Ice Barrier, etc. Charmers(considering their waifu bait to some), could have been made the next Sky Strikers for them. But no...
Is this a good product for a beginner? What else should a beginner buy? Yugioh is very daunting to me because it doesn't rotate so I have no idea what to buy if I'm just getting started. I don't even know how to play so it's not like I can buy singles because I dunno where to start with building a deck
I bought 3 copies and got 3 different arts for the possessed charmer's earth, water and fire. Planing to collect them all and use the deck as 30$ deck while searching for every charmer card that doesn't comes in the structure. Then maybe add some cards to build a more competitive version of the deck. Right now I'm using the El exordio del duelista 30$ deck version
there are definitely some useful tech options for the deck to use like Skill Drain, Foolish Burial Goods, Crackdown, and Instant Fusion. Extra deck monster you would definitely need Selene and IP Masquerena along with the 4 Charmer links
@@IamJerf thanks man. Gotta get those also kinda want to try some tech combos for burning if possible by using the new Inari and the fire trap that does pretty much the same That could trigger some good finishing dmg if the otk doesn't come out in battle phase
It's ironic, today I went with my sister to buy stuff and I went and checked the game isle. I was so happy to see yugioh products but like every store only spirit charmers were there. I bought it anyways and got the Rageiki :D
Aye, you got the best token! I do kinda have a bit of a gripe since the website said that the deck comes with one of 5 mats to match the token in each deck, but every opening I've seen, it's the same one every time. Still gonna try and get it though.
Wew that deck is packaged totally different here in Europe (UK) no plastic inner packaging, the token and familiar posessed card aren't in the same wrap as the deck, and the top of the box opens different. I know it's not important, but it's something worth pointing out.
U know what if they took out evenly matched so they can put it in the ice barrier structure deck. After all crossout designator was reprinted in the ocg but we still don't have it in the TCG until Blazing vortex so my theory is they'll replace crossout for evenly.
I bought one. Needed a raigeki and the effect veiler. Subbed those out, gonna play the deck casually for awhile and then strip it further for side deck cards for my better deck. 6 decks is a lot to have for the size of the rest of my collection I reckon.
@@zyro7756 we xould have had mermails or blackwings or hell crystal beasts but nope instead we get one of the best structure decks ever, and 2 of the worst ever.
I think that konami didn't do a great job when it came to making support for this deck, not in terms of the quality of the cards but the quantity. only 5 support cards in one structure deck isn't a lot for a deck that needs a lot to become viable and the two support cards from PHRA which SHOULD'VE been in the structure to begin with got wasted in PHRA, and they're not even good cards. Gagigobyte is incredibly underpowered and a shadow of its own spiritual art, and Rasenryu isn't terrible but fails to create advantage for you to faciliate more plays which makes nefarious the only one worth running. With Shaddolls however it did work because the deck wasn't terrible and pretty easy to build support around, same can be said about dino except the cards before the structure weren't very good, but the support *made* those cards good (like babycerasaurus) I did still buy this deck because i love the theme itself a ton. Day 221 of waiting for Vendread support
I have to agree as well. As much as im a huge fan of this archetype, they really didnt do much in this structure deck in terms of quantity. This type of deck desperately needed as many supports as they can but instead they only gave us 5 and left 2 additional supports in PHRA, meanwhile Sacred Beast and even Ice Barriers were given 8-10 support cards and are just on the same level as Charmers. Rather than giving us tokens, they should have been the additional supports we needed and not only that, the quick-play and field spell arent searchable. Instead of retraining the familiars again, why couldnt they retrain the Charmers/Familiar-Possessed with actual effects that resolves better
I do agree about Raigeki and twin twisters. Raigeki hasn't has as many reprints, but it really needs to replace dark hole when it comes to reprints. Dark hole still keeps coming back in reprints. Same for MST. R and TT need to be the norm from now on.
Konami understands that Charmer/Familiar Possessed I’m a waifu collectors archetype, not something ever expected to be competitive or even rogue. This archetype was meant to be displayed in a collector binder and that’s about it. That’s why the new support feels half-baked and doesn’t really give the deck an actual strategy other than vanilla spellcaster beat down. That’s why you only get 1 random alternate art so you gotta buy multiples, that’s why there’s a bunch of fanservice adorable tokens despite there being 0 token generating cards in the deck, and that’s why all the support card artworks are big display arts with all the charmers striking a pose together looking cool or cute. It’s not inherently a bad thing but I would’ve preferred Konami go back to the original Charmer effects of stealing monsters based on attribute and built the archetype around that instead of a bunch of cards that just give your 1850 vanillas protection and effects that should’ve been on Familiar Possessed retrains.
I got 2 of these as i'm actually putting together a spirit charmers deck. Getting Raigeki, Terraforming and Twin Twisters will be good for my Madolche deck too, but to be fair i think i'd put them cards in any deck. Now i just have to wait for corona lockdown to end before i can find some opponents, and see if my logic from playing yugioh back in 2002-2006 still stands.
They need a boss monster. Possessed Doriado Attribute: Light Type: Spellcaster Level: 8 Atk: 3000 Def: 2000 Effect1: (Quickie) You can change the Attribute of this Card to any Attributr except “Divine”. Effect2: All “Charmer” and “Possessed” cards are unaffected by your opponent’s card effects while you have a Field Spell Active. Effect3: Once per Turn: You can banish one card on your opponent’s side of the field for each monster you control that is a different attribute. Card Ruling: This Card can only be one Attribute at a time, but can change Attributes an infinite number of times.
took a quick image search for the other alt arts and token designs. my favorite token is probably the charmers getting charmed when spying on their sleeping familiars.
Question, can you summon the familiar possessed using the respective link monster as if it was a normal charmer, since they have the same name as the normal charmers just with an extra adjective
This might be late but no. Familar possessed specify the charmer and not the link. It would work if the links had a clause lile "this card's name is treated as wynn the wind charmer" An example of this working is cyber dragons. Cyber dragon core, nachster or herz each have a clause that says "this card's name is treated as cyber dragon on the field and graveyard". Hope this helps
the problem with charmers us that they still don't have a boss monster to end on or anything but how long can we wait for our boss monster Darc/metabat
make Dharc/Lyna together as a link-3 boss monster. Give them similar effects to steal a Dark or Light monster from the GY and have some sort of Accesscode Talker effect to destroy cards by banishing different Spellcaster attribute monsters. Maybe it should have an effect that says "If a Familiar-Possessed monster is special summoned from the deck to the field to where this card points to you can treat its own effect with its summoned condition allowed". Meaning when summoned they can get their piercing damage effect (Lyna and Dharc would also get their search effect too)
I don't really care about competitiveness. I knew it was never going to see competition when I saw the words "Charmer" and "Structure Deck", only for the word "Yugioh" to seal the deal. I'm more in it for the lore. I quit because the game was going from toxic to downright predatory, but before I left, I collected a full playset of all the Charmer cards that existed at the time. Which, yes, included Lynna and Dharc. So I see a bunch of 1850 beaters and I'm thinking to myself how much cooler this deck could've been from a lore perspective if they took all the "charmed" monsters and basically made "Gagagigo" storylines where they all get to turn into 1850 beaters. But instead they make these half-assed competitive-if-they-came-out-twelve-years-ago cards that aren't really competitive because they don't involve ending your first turn on three negates and a hand trap, nor do they do a whole lot to further the story. And to this day, we *still* don't have a definitive word on how / why Gagagigo turned evil (I heard fan theories that Dharc was involved), which is as annoying to me as the Evenly Matched substitution must be to you. This is definitely a "one of" for me. If it wasn't for my tradition of getting Yugioh structure decks for white elephant gift exchange parties and basically rigging it so I walk out with the cards every time, I wouldn't care at all.
Solem warning is OP and underrated for some reason. Like you said it’s unlimited which it epic. This game is a literally then only “Solem” card that can stop anything.
I'll be curious to see how people play this deck. My first thought is splashing Invoker in due to the attributes, but hopefully there will be more creative strategies.
there's lots of strategies to this deck. I myself right now am using Invoked as well but once i've invested enough I will surely be using the Dogmatika engine for them. You have plenty of other options like Crusadia, Windwitches, Fairy Tail, Magistus, Gravekeepers, and Kaiju
@@ThatGreenGuy20i0 yeah main reason it works really well is because of the Fire tuner monster, Zoroa. He fits the requirements as a Spellcaster with 1500 Def and as a tuner he's able to make Borreload Savage Dragon very easily. There's a video here on TH-cam that showcase the deck, having just Zoroa and Spirit Charmers in your hand can give access to a pretty great first turn board with two synchro monsters, Selene, and two Possessed backrow supports
@@ThatGreenGuy20i0 the Magistus archetype won't be available in TCG until December, at least a few weeks from now, so I think I may want to try using them when they arrive. For now I'll stick with the Invoked engine, and I might still think about the Dogmatika if I can manage to get the necessary cards
Kind of wished there wasn't a random chance for what token/alt art Charmer you get. If I wanted to gamble, a structure deck is the least expected place I would look.
I feel like the deck just needs a single native control peice because you would benefit from magicians souls if not the apprentice illusion magicians as well
As a MtG player who has been using Katanas for a long while now, assuming the quality is the same as the standard sizes, the sleeves are absolutely fantastic. Great shuffle, great back texture, nice clear fronts, and durable
@@Nearalias I can only speak for standard sizes, but in my experience, DS Mattes can sometimes be a bit grippy/sandpapery on the backside, and will take some time to break in. Not really an issue for shuffling but can be a detriment for the fanning thing you YGO players seem to do. Katana's have a smooth textured backing which always have a great shuffle/slide. What it comes down to imo is shuffle feel vs. color/art selection. DS has by far the better color/arts since UG only runs with standard colors. One last note, DS Arts have imo the best shuffle/gliding of the entire lot, but for YGO/JP cards they only have 4 art options
I feel like an ideal card for this deck would’ve been a continuous spell/trap or a field spell that the moment an attack is declared, allows you to change the attribute of the opponent’s monster (or monsters maybe) so you can ACTUALLY use the charmers rather than running a bunch of them and hoping your opponent is running a deck with those attributes.
Or something like DNA surgery but for your opponents attribute instead of type, and then a second effect to change which type you made them once per turn
@@Zeral__ and if your opponent has a stronger monster that you can't use your charmer effect on you don't have to worry about them just destroying the monster you stole before you can use it
Its cool, but the charmer strategy itself is only “good” when paired vs old unchanged meta decks. And that is a shame. There is a lot of missed potential in the synergies. Like spirit charmers not being able to be recycled by the trap, the fieldspell needing to shuffle the charmer back instead of just revealing, etc.
Yeah I was kinda disappointed how both the quick-play and field spell arent searchable. There ought to be a support card that would help search these cards faster. There's so many cards still missing in this archetype like having Light and Dark charmer links, their retrained and awakening pets, and a ED boss monster. I felt like they could do like a continuous trap that can act like Magician's Left/Right Hand for negating spell/trap effects when having a Spellcaster with 1500 Def on the field and could even have a quick effect that change's an opponent's monster's attribute from either field or GY. Some other good supports to have would be to special summon a familiar-possessed monster from the deck to the field and give them their summoned effect of piercing damage (in this case also Lyna and Dharc would get their search effect as well).
@@skeletonwar4445 maybe they could do effects to say Spellcaster monsters with 1850 Atk (like how Awakeneing of the Possessed, Fairy Tail Luna, and the new Fairy Tail spell card say)
@@IamJerf They really just gotta retrain like half the archetype to give them a consistent name and just have their good spells&traps be for the new name so they don't get abused in different archetypes. Having to put "charmer", "possessed", "familiar", "spiritual art" in every searcher is gonna get tedious or lead to terrible choices like it already did. The field spell and the search spell both aren't searchable cause of their names...

Im happy that we finally got more supports for them, even though I would havent wanted more than just 5 new cards since Sacred Beast and Ice Barriers have and are getting about 8-10 new cards which doesnt add up if Shaddolls didnt get that amount either). I think with what we have now and from the two additional cards from Phantom Rage, we will definitely see more Charmer supports in the future and would definitely make the deck more aggresive in its build
True! I have been playtesting the deck (it is my first deck returning to Yu-Gi-Oh) and it can put out 5k attackers and op interruptions. I started my TH-cam Channel with it, check it out if you have the time to see the deck profile th-cam.com/video/WEahyqCj4qM/w-d-xo.html and some games I have recorded th-cam.com/video/lCEA6Z_-4Gc/w-d-xo.html
One word:deception
I actually want this deck. Would love to build the broken version of it on Duel Links
just bought this as my first deck, barely know how to play. What booster packs should I get to pimp up this structure deck... ?? Help please I am a noob

Honestly this deck along with ice barriers and sacred beasts just proves that your vote really does matter cause Konami will stick to the theme of whatever the strategy was originally rather than make them actually good.
Yep... konami doesnt care. And ya mean shadoll not ice barrier. Ice barrier is part of the redux line of structure decks, like machina revolt, lair of darkness, and the ocg exclusive gemini amd dragunity decks

Konami has really been screwing the pooch this year with the upcoming structure decks.
Konami needs to stop changing card lists unless there is a banned card over here.
Konami needs to start making the archetype support that these structure decks give, At Minimum, Tier 2-3-Rogue Contender level support. Ontop of that, we need more meta staple and side deck staple reprints more often in these structure decks, instead of pointless reprints of cards that are pennys these days.
This worked very well for them in 2019 when every structure deck that came out; Salamangreat, Rokkets, and Endymion, all had competitive success, and 2020 this year with Shaddolls, Machina and Dragunity(which we may or may not get next april) to an extent. Nobody was expecting anything from Sacred Beasts, but they finally gave the deck a playable stratedgy; Which makes me question why the hell they weren’t trying more with Charmers, Ice Barrier, etc.
Charmers(considering their waifu bait to some), could have been made the next Sky Strikers for them. But no...
Is this a good product for a beginner? What else should a beginner buy? Yugioh is very daunting to me because it doesn't rotate so I have no idea what to buy if I'm just getting started. I don't even know how to play so it's not like I can buy singles because I dunno where to start with building a deck
It can be a good structure deck if you are just starting out. It really depends what type of play style you'd like to have.
I got one of these for Christmas but it didn't have one of the alternate artworks for the Familiar Possessed cards. Has anyone else had this problem?
I bought 3 copies and got 3 different arts for the possessed charmer's earth, water and fire. Planing to collect them all and use the deck as 30$ deck while searching for every charmer card that doesn't comes in the structure. Then maybe add some cards to build a more competitive version of the deck. Right now I'm using the El exordio del duelista 30$ deck version
there are definitely some useful tech options for the deck to use like Skill Drain, Foolish Burial Goods, Crackdown, and Instant Fusion. Extra deck monster you would definitely need Selene and IP Masquerena along with the 4 Charmer links
@@IamJerf thanks man. Gotta get those also kinda want to try some tech combos for burning if possible by using the new Inari and the fire trap that does pretty much the same
That could trigger some good finishing dmg if the otk doesn't come out in battle phase
Instant Fusion+Thousand Eyes Restrict->steal a fucker->Linkuriboh is always a good play. And the charmers definitely need that removal.
I'm sad it doesn't come with the charmer link monsters
Structure decks have come a long way from the times of Yugi Kaiba starter decks

Ah charmers. The worst structure deck ever, that only won cuz waifus
Yeah basically, I can't imagine voting Charmer over Traptrix and if they did they probably didn't read their effects.
It's ironic, today I went with my sister to buy stuff and I went and checked the game isle. I was so happy to see yugioh products but like every store only spirit charmers were there. I bought it anyways and got the Rageiki :D
Brainfart weeb
@@eavyeavy2864 that your best insult?
Why didn't they release the link charmers as well?
6:21 thanks for the shout out! And yes I DO have a copy of raigeki. ;)
So where can i find those sleeves?????? i only found them on standard sleeves 😭😭
If I have 2 Awakening of the Possessed can I draw 2 cards?
Finally some real critique of product. Keep up the great work Cimo
Aye, you got the best token! I do kinda have a bit of a gripe since the website said that the deck comes with one of 5 mats to match the token in each deck, but every opening I've seen, it's the same one every time.
Still gonna try and get it though.
Wew that deck is packaged totally different here in Europe (UK) no plastic inner packaging, the token and familiar posessed card aren't in the same wrap as the deck, and the top of the box opens different. I know it's not important, but it's something worth pointing out.
U know what if they took out evenly matched so they can put it in the ice barrier structure deck. After all crossout designator was reprinted in the ocg but we still don't have it in the TCG until Blazing vortex so my theory is they'll replace crossout for evenly.
I have a six sam and gravekeeper deck, which would be better against this??
I've religiously used Katana sleeves on my full sized cards. Stoked to be able to find these for my ygo needs.
Is one of four alternate art familiar possessed charmers guaranteed in every Charmer spirit structure deck? Cause I bought 3 and only got 1.
I bought one. Needed a raigeki and the effect veiler. Subbed those out, gonna play the deck casually for awhile and then strip it further for side deck cards for my better deck. 6 decks is a lot to have for the size of the rest of my collection I reckon.
Charmer has been my most fav archetype in YUGIOH, I even spend most gems in duel links to collect every charmer cards
i dont know wy we didnt get link forms of charmers in this deck

Idk since I combined 3 of these i havent lost
I think that konami didn't do a great job when it came to making support for this deck, not in terms of the quality of the cards but the quantity. only 5 support cards in one structure deck isn't a lot for a deck that needs a lot to become viable and the two support cards from PHRA which SHOULD'VE been in the structure to begin with got wasted in PHRA, and they're not even good cards. Gagigobyte is incredibly underpowered and a shadow of its own spiritual art, and Rasenryu isn't terrible but fails to create advantage for you to faciliate more plays which makes nefarious the only one worth running. With Shaddolls however it did work because the deck wasn't terrible and pretty easy to build support around, same can be said about dino except the cards before the structure weren't very good, but the support *made* those cards good (like babycerasaurus) I did still buy this deck because i love the theme itself a ton.
Day 221 of waiting for Vendread support
I have to agree as well. As much as im a huge fan of this archetype, they really didnt do much in this structure deck in terms of quantity. This type of deck desperately needed as many supports as they can but instead they only gave us 5 and left 2 additional supports in PHRA, meanwhile Sacred Beast and even Ice Barriers were given 8-10 support cards and are just on the same level as Charmers. Rather than giving us tokens, they should have been the additional supports we needed and not only that, the quick-play and field spell arent searchable. Instead of retraining the familiars again, why couldnt they retrain the Charmers/Familiar-Possessed with actual effects that resolves better
Should I buy this to get "raigeki" and "dark ruler no more"? 3 or 1 copy?
I do agree about Raigeki and twin twisters. Raigeki hasn't has as many reprints, but it really needs to replace dark hole when it comes to reprints. Dark hole still keeps coming back in reprints. Same for MST. R and TT need to be the norm from now on.
Love the new artwork on the cards, definitely gonna try out this deck
Konami understands that Charmer/Familiar Possessed I’m a waifu collectors archetype, not something ever expected to be competitive or even rogue. This archetype was meant to be displayed in a collector binder and that’s about it.
That’s why the new support feels half-baked and doesn’t really give the deck an actual strategy other than vanilla spellcaster beat down. That’s why you only get 1 random alternate art so you gotta buy multiples, that’s why there’s a bunch of fanservice adorable tokens despite there being 0 token generating cards in the deck, and that’s why all the support card artworks are big display arts with all the charmers striking a pose together looking cool or cute.
It’s not inherently a bad thing but I would’ve preferred Konami go back to the original Charmer effects of stealing monsters based on attribute and built the archetype around that instead of a bunch of cards that just give your 1850 vanillas protection and effects that should’ve been on Familiar Possessed retrains.
i'm surprised the links aren't here
Didn’t this deck come out like a month ago
I got 2 of these as i'm actually putting together a spirit charmers deck. Getting Raigeki, Terraforming and Twin Twisters will be good for my Madolche deck too, but to be fair i think i'd put them cards in any deck. Now i just have to wait for corona lockdown to end before i can find some opponents, and see if my logic from playing yugioh back in 2002-2006 still stands.
Why no light and dark
Unironically might pick this deck up for the reprints and for those lost arts
I just bought one of these.
It’s missing the Spirit Charmers spell and Familiar Possessed Hita and Wynn. Unlucky with QC I guess
They need a boss monster.
Possessed Doriado
Attribute: Light
Type: Spellcaster
Level: 8
Atk: 3000
Def: 2000
Effect1: (Quickie) You can change the Attribute of this Card to any Attributr except “Divine”.
Effect2: All “Charmer” and “Possessed” cards are unaffected by your opponent’s card effects while you have a Field Spell Active.
Effect3: Once per Turn: You can banish one card on your opponent’s side of the field for each monster you control that is a different attribute.
Card Ruling: This Card can only be one Attribute at a time, but can change Attributes an infinite number of times.
took a quick image search for the other alt arts and token designs. my favorite token is probably the charmers getting charmed when spying on their sleeping familiars.
Spellbook of knowledge was reprinted in the updated spellcounter deck
Question, can you summon the familiar possessed using the respective link monster as if it was a normal charmer, since they have the same name as the normal charmers just with an extra adjective
This might be late but no. Familar possessed specify the charmer and not the link.
It would work if the links had a clause lile "this card's name is treated as wynn the wind charmer"
An example of this working is cyber dragons. Cyber dragon core, nachster or herz each have a clause that says "this card's name is treated as cyber dragon on the field and graveyard".
Hope this helps
@@ghostsisterspookydogwood4360 thanks
the problem with charmers us that they still don't have a boss monster to end on or anything but how long can we wait for our boss monster Darc/metabat
make Dharc/Lyna together as a link-3 boss monster. Give them similar effects to steal a Dark or Light monster from the GY and have some sort of Accesscode Talker effect to destroy cards by banishing different Spellcaster attribute monsters. Maybe it should have an effect that says "If a Familiar-Possessed monster is special summoned from the deck to the field to where this card points to you can treat its own effect with its summoned condition allowed". Meaning when summoned they can get their piercing damage effect (Lyna and Dharc would also get their search effect too)
I don't really care about competitiveness. I knew it was never going to see competition when I saw the words "Charmer" and "Structure Deck", only for the word "Yugioh" to seal the deal. I'm more in it for the lore. I quit because the game was going from toxic to downright predatory, but before I left, I collected a full playset of all the Charmer cards that existed at the time. Which, yes, included Lynna and Dharc.
So I see a bunch of 1850 beaters and I'm thinking to myself how much cooler this deck could've been from a lore perspective if they took all the "charmed" monsters and basically made "Gagagigo" storylines where they all get to turn into 1850 beaters. But instead they make these half-assed competitive-if-they-came-out-twelve-years-ago cards that aren't really competitive because they don't involve ending your first turn on three negates and a hand trap, nor do they do a whole lot to further the story. And to this day, we *still* don't have a definitive word on how / why Gagagigo turned evil (I heard fan theories that Dharc was involved), which is as annoying to me as the Evenly Matched substitution must be to you.
This is definitely a "one of" for me. If it wasn't for my tradition of getting Yugioh structure decks for white elephant gift exchange parties and basically rigging it so I walk out with the cards every time, I wouldn't care at all.
Solem warning is OP and underrated for some reason. Like you said it’s unlimited which it epic. This game is a literally then only “Solem” card that can stop anything.
why u make that unboxing since the deck came out almost a month ago?
I'll be curious to see how people play this deck. My first thought is splashing Invoker in due to the attributes, but hopefully there will be more creative strategies.
there's lots of strategies to this deck. I myself right now am using Invoked as well but once i've invested enough I will surely be using the Dogmatika engine for them.
You have plenty of other options like Crusadia, Windwitches, Fairy Tail, Magistus, Gravekeepers, and Kaiju
@@IamJerf I hadn't even heard of Magistus until your comment. I could definitely see them with Charmers, especially with the new support cards.
@@ThatGreenGuy20i0 yeah main reason it works really well is because of the Fire tuner monster, Zoroa. He fits the requirements as a Spellcaster with 1500 Def and as a tuner he's able to make Borreload Savage Dragon very easily. There's a video here on TH-cam that showcase the deck, having just Zoroa and Spirit Charmers in your hand can give access to a pretty great first turn board with two synchro monsters, Selene, and two Possessed backrow supports
@@ThatGreenGuy20i0 the Magistus archetype won't be available in TCG until December, at least a few weeks from now, so I think I may want to try using them when they arrive. For now I'll stick with the Invoked engine, and I might still think about the Dogmatika if I can manage to get the necessary cards
Does anybody recommend picking this up? Someone is trying to sell a few to me for $6 each
Kind of wished there wasn't a random chance for what token/alt art Charmer you get. If I wanted to gamble, a structure deck is the least expected place I would look.
So should I buy this for my little brother for Xmas , or a couple Maximum Gold boxes ?? 🙂
I feel like the deck just needs a single native control peice because you would benefit from magicians souls if not the apprentice illusion magicians as well
The Charmers charmed me when I was a kid
As a MtG player who has been using Katanas for a long while now, assuming the quality is the same as the standard sizes, the sleeves are absolutely fantastic. Great shuffle, great back texture, nice clear fronts, and durable
I heard they were more or less similar top quality like Dragon Shields, are they better or about equal?
@@Nearalias I can only speak for standard sizes, but in my experience, DS Mattes can sometimes be a bit grippy/sandpapery on the backside, and will take some time to break in. Not really an issue for shuffling but can be a detriment for the fanning thing you YGO players seem to do. Katana's have a smooth textured backing which always have a great shuffle/slide. What it comes down to imo is shuffle feel vs. color/art selection. DS has by far the better color/arts since UG only runs with standard colors.
One last note, DS Arts have imo the best shuffle/gliding of the entire lot, but for YGO/JP cards they only have 4 art options
I feel like an ideal card for this deck would’ve been a continuous spell/trap or a field spell that the moment an attack is declared, allows you to change the attribute of the opponent’s monster (or monsters maybe) so you can ACTUALLY use the charmers rather than running a bunch of them and hoping your opponent is running a deck with those attributes.
Or something like DNA surgery but for your opponents attribute instead of type, and then a second effect to change which type you made them once per turn
@@zacharywalker9176 that’s a much better idea actually. That way you can use the effect when you flip the charmer yourself
@@Zeral__ and if your opponent has a stronger monster that you can't use your charmer effect on you don't have to worry about them just destroying the monster you stole before you can use it
I think it's better thay lay down the reprints, so that not everyone has to play the same cards but it is based on your budget.
Its cool, but the charmer strategy itself is only “good” when paired vs old unchanged meta decks. And that is a shame. There is a lot of missed potential in the synergies. Like spirit charmers not being able to be recycled by the trap, the fieldspell needing to shuffle the charmer back instead of just revealing, etc.
Really lots of missed potential. Also I would not buy it because it's a shame they didn't include evenly matched.
Yeah I was kinda disappointed how both the quick-play and field spell arent searchable. There ought to be a support card that would help search these cards faster. There's so many cards still missing in this archetype like having Light and Dark charmer links, their retrained and awakening pets, and a ED boss monster. I felt like they could do like a continuous trap that can act like Magician's Left/Right Hand for negating spell/trap effects when having a Spellcaster with 1500 Def on the field and could even have a quick effect that change's an opponent's monster's attribute from either field or GY. Some other good supports to have would be to special summon a familiar-possessed monster from the deck to the field and give them their summoned effect of piercing damage (in this case also Lyna and Dharc would get their search effect as well).
@@IamJerf They gotta be careful making good cards for 1500 DEF Spellcasters though, cause Dogmatika Ecclesia is also one
@@skeletonwar4445 maybe they could do effects to say Spellcaster monsters with 1850 Atk (like how Awakeneing of the Possessed, Fairy Tail Luna, and the new Fairy Tail spell card say)
@@IamJerf They really just gotta retrain like half the archetype to give them a consistent name and just have their good spells&traps be for the new name so they don't get abused in different archetypes.
Having to put "charmer", "possessed", "familiar", "spiritual art" in every searcher is gonna get tedious or lead to terrible choices like it already did.
The field spell and the search spell both aren't searchable cause of their names...
Would be great to watch you play with 3 copies of this set to showcase how to use it
