Sorry for no TMT today - I know it's a Wednesday, but COVID's still got me good.
Hope you feel better asap dude 👍
Recover, mate, covid really sucks
May i suggest bysstials-spellbook Dogmatika?
Ycs Dortmund had it and i think it's quiet an Innovative deck
@@lukeeszeha5381 Do you have a list? That sounds unhinged I love it
Atleast you don't have an actual serious disease. The overblown sniffles go away without issue.
get well soon! i love watching your videos too.
Would legitimately love to see a retrain of Machine King
This
Bandit Keith already has a few retrains, so that with Slot Machine would work nicely.
New earth machine support
But Jinzo already exist.
Pretty sure he has 2
I've been saying for years. La Jinn archetype with cursed lamp monsters that can be played as face up spell/traps that give random effects while la jinn is on field, or can tribute/banish themselves to summon la jinn. Then the whole deck plays protect the castle style like old school bujins.
la jinn did get anime cards in ARC-V
I remember getting Ancient Lamp as a kid out of a Shonen Jump edition from the book fair at school an I was so pumped to put it in my deck. The attack reflect effect was cool, plus the added bonus of getting to summon a La Jinn for free from your hand. I would totally be down for an entire archetype based on lamps.
La Jinn got an archetype in Arc V it just hasn't been printed. You use a purple lamp to fuse elemental lamps with La Jinn to make elemental La Jinn Fusion boss monsters (only the fusion lamp, fire lamp, and fire fusion were played).
Same story with the "Battleguards" from Duelist Kingdom (Joey and Tristan's Lava and Swamp Battleguard). They also got an archetype in Arc V that was never printed.
a mystical lamp spell that worked kinda like triple tactics talent would be really cool
So Eldrich?
So 4 months later. Battlin' Boxer support. Evolsaur Support. Gate Guardian Archetype and possibly a top-tier Hungry Burger Archetype. I think Konami watches these videos.
*Some time later* ( Horus, mementos , yubel support , silenforce and flipin "DA FWAME SWODSMEN" archetype release) yeah......it, uh..... would seem that way
.
The Masked series of cards was actually fully retrained in Rush Duels! Now they’re Noodle themed Water Pyros
Yeah and I kinda hate it because they're supposed to be scary motherfuckers with demon masks, not goof-em-ups. They need to put the Dark Fantasy back in yugioh already.
As the person who posted for the Masked cards and a lover of both Water and Pyro archetypes this makes me incredibly happy
Rush Duel chad identified
Pretty sure they're Fire Pyro and they're called Noodle Ninja or something similar. Their whole visual and name convention stems from ramen, where some use ramen bowls for pauldrons or kneepads and they'll use ingredients and cooking techniques for attacks.
@@otterfire4712 The first series' Noodle Ninja are Fire/Pyro, but the second series (Go Rush) introduced Noodle Mask cards which are Water/Pyro and based on cards like Masked Beast, Mask of Malice etc
I would like a retrained Oxygeddon and Hydrogeddon, sure they got Duoterrion and the Twin Water Dragon Cluster, but they still need to make the Fire Dragon from the GX opening!
I'd kill for a "Bonding - CO2"
Facts!
I always wanted a full Arcana Force Reboot, tails effects that don't auto lose you the game, no high lv monsters clogging your hand or at least more discard effects like temperance and principally the actual full set of monsters for the archetype
I think someone at Konami is afraid of breaking The World. Like if Arcana Force was good it’d turn into a World psudo OTK.
I just want coin flip and barrel dragon support, like how it was a deck in duel links
I don't think a reboot is necessary: there's enough missing major arcana where they could just print good cards in those slots and basically make a new thematically similar deck.
They did… it was prophecy/spellbooks.
They’re all based on tarot cards too. Except they made all the Majors with Prophecy- and arcana force is missing several.
Not 1 mention for Yubel, breaks my heart. Yubel is one of my absolute favorite decks that deserves way more love.
I think the three Yubel cards work fine but she needs support to make her useful and give her a win condition
if Konami ever decides to make a yubel retrain complete with a *PLAYABLE* structure deck I would cum
Came here literally just to say this ^ give her some love
the issue with yubel is that she inherently combat based so idk what you can do
He went over yubel in the stream
I like how Panik's monsters only had weird stats in the anime because the Castle's attack boosts it gave to mons you controlled were percent based. The monsters themselves should have had regular stats but Konami was like "naw that's too much math, just make them all weird normally"
The interesting thing is in the manga, they had normal stats.
They also didn't know what to do with them in some of the early video games either, so they ended up getting ridiculous stat lines that basically lined up with what their stats would be if they already had the percent boosts. In Dark Duel Stories, Castle of Dark Illusions (called Castle of D. Magic) has a stat line of 1200ATK/2500DEF as a level 4 monster. King of Yamimakai has 2600ATK/2300DEF at level 5 which outclasses the famous "best single-tribute monster" of the era, Summoned Skull. Then they just went ahead and made the field spell boosts use percentages for the whole game anyway, so these monsters were even more overpowered. Castle of D. Magic with the field boost has 3250 DEF and can pretty much wall anything in the game that doesn't require 2 tributes, unless it has a type disadvantage. Also, it's own effect sets the field to dark as well, so it boosts itself basically. There was basically no reason not to play a Yami based strategy in the game if you had enough of the cards unlocked, but you can't get some of them (like Castle) until after you beat the game unless you use the passwords.
Regarding Reaper of the Cards' weird stats:
The ATK digits, in individual kun'yomi pronunciation, can be read as: 1 = hi 3 = mitsu 8 = ya 0 = ma
While the DEF digits, in individual on'yomi pronunciation, can be read as: 1 = i 9 = ku 3 = sa 0 = re
As a complete sentence, [himitsu yama, ikusare], or [秘密山、行くされ] loosely reads as "you are going to the secret mountain". In Japanese folklore, death gods, called shinigami, are known to possess people and lead them to mountains, seas, and railroads where people have died.
I quote:
The card's unusual ATK/DEF values of 920/1930 could be attributed to the fact that in the manga, this card's original ATK/DEF was 1200/2500, but in the anime, it used these different values to account for the 30% Field Power Bonus, bringing the card's ATK and DEF to 1196 and 2509, which is very close to the manga's values.
@@W1ggly1 H-how would anyone get that reference wtf?
if ishizu's monsters got a retrain, Millenium Shield needs one for lore reason. description says its from the pharaoh himself
It could be a ritual/fusion monster that has 4k defense, and has an effect like, "The first time each monster you control would be destroyed by battle or card effect, it is not destroyed."
@@Rahnonymous Or a hand trap with a similar ability. One that can summon itself to the field or something like Lord of the Heavenly Prison but for monsters.
Well. Guess what?
I'd like to see retrains of those metalmorph monsters, think we only had two but it could be cool.
Also at 6:44, I fully expected MBT to draw attention to the facedick Zera has
It'd be cool to get more metalmorph monsters but with actual effects and not just a summoning condition
Based and red pilled. Errata them to shuffle themselves from the hand to deck and add 1 trap card that can be equipped to a monster. Also have the summon requirements be any equip trap not just metalmorph
retrain Metalizing Parasite Lunatite. tie it into Metalmorph somehow. also, make Metal versions of a bunch of random dm era big normal monsters like Cosmos Queen, Senjinjin, and Beast of Talwar.
They are confirmed bro
I would love to see Helios return to the game as an actual archetype, ideally this time their core cards would come with actual synergy within their own archetype.
I love the art, I love the concept and just such a shame that like many of the other GX cards they are absolute ass.
It would be an opportunity to print the remaining Helios spell/trap support from the anime.
I was strangely obessed with Helios in the old video games. I don't know why but I thought it was really cool. They could have mixed them with the Alchemy Beast to reference GX further, naming support to blend the two themes together.
Given the importance historically of its components Sangan, and witch of the Black Forest, I would love to see Sanwitch turned into a small archetype, if not just get a retrain that’s not a vanilla.
Funny enough he appears in so many cards he has a full archetype already if you only count lore
Sanwitch was the first Yugioh card I ever saw in my life. If it got an archetype I do not care if it is the hottest ass ever printed I will play it til the end of time
Maybe something like "Tribute this card and special summon Sangan and Witch of the Black Forest from your hand, deck, or graveyard." Then just make it a bitch to summon lol
Putting aside my wants for bonz' cards to be retrain, I think it'd be cool to see a retrain of Joey's older cards like Swamp/Lava Battleguard, Axe Raider, and Garoozis.
We did just get Battleguard support I believe in either POTE or DABL
@@pokefreakplays we did
But I'd love to see a retrain of the Bonz's cards like an actual Pumpking that does something
Battleguards did get retrains. Arc V episode 1 had a dude with a Battleguard deck (most of his cards haven't been printed), + a new Battleguard support this year
@@jaernihiltheus7817 Ok, so I guess replace them with Battle Warrior or Tiger Axe.
Looking at this year later everything in this list got "Support" in someway 🥴
Given all the talk in this video about the DM-era characters, I’m surprised no one brought up Rex Raptor. Sure he technically counts as a Red Eyes user, but I would love to see his old vanilla Dinosaurs get retrains. Maybe into cards that also become Dragon Type whilst on the field so they have better synergy with Rex’s obsession for having Dragons as his boss monsters. 🤔
I've wanted Rex to get retrains for *YEARS* my dude. I thought they could make a Serpent Night Dragon archetype ala Starry Knights (which retrained Seiyaryu [sp], a card best known for being Téa's boss in Capsule Monsters of all things) that used his smaller monsters (i.e. Two-Headed King Rex, Uraby, et cetera) as the basis for the support cards. Might try coming up with effects for them at some point.
@@nicholasfarrell5981 Serpent Night Dragon got a skill that terrorized Speed Duel format and had to be nerfed, but that's about it.
The evol archetype is basically this. Rex even used them in legacy of the duelist
Well, the Transcendrakes are new retrains in CYAC that care about normal monsters, so maybe you're about to get your wish!
@@amiablereaper And we also got two of his cards from Season 4 recently, and they're not the worst, but certainly not the greatest
they literally just announced the gate guardian retrain like 5 days after this video or something 🤣🤣🤣🤣
White Horned Dragon was used in Yu-Gi-Oh! R. It got even bigger than the 3700 it can get to in the real game.
Yu-Gi-Oh! R cards probably will never get a retrain of some sorts just because not many people knows about it. Sorry Gorz lovers.
Yeah, that was Willa's boss monster I think. The guy that shit-talked Kaiba and then got absolutely wrecked by him.
The best source to find good archetypes to retrain is the GX era archetypes. A lot of those archetypes are really bad but thematically interesting. Cloudian stands out as a good example of this, but there's wway more than just that.
Arcana Force
@@sabeelmakhdoom8415 God, Arcana Force replrint would be so sick! Imagine an Arcana Force card that searched Cup of Ace and another that ensued your effects land on heads.
@@MomirViggwilv Arcana Force is in desperate need for new support, considering they don't even have all of the Arcana cards complete for the monsters LOL
Give me more Cyber Angels to make my Drytrons better Konami
the alchemy archetype played by professor banner, to me its so wildly interesting but the archetype is literally one of the worst to exist
tfw gate guardian support is now already confirmed in maze of memories
can confirm, i like dark blade because it was the widely available 1800 beater when i played as a kid
Surprised no one mentioned the Dark Scorpions. As they were a early form of a archtype and would be interesting to see them work together in a proper way.
Surprised you didn't bring up the original E Heros. Just give them the vendread treatment and let them grant bonus effects to fusions that list them as matieral, that way they don't also need to retrain all the fusions too.
I'd actually love that
I'm really surprised they don't at least have a red eyes fusion to do it from deck so you have access to any combination you'll need
The entire Gemini mechanic needs a retrain. For example, that once per turn you can switch from normal monster to effect monster and vice-versa WITHOUT SUMMONING the monster in order to treat it as pretended (normal or effect monster), but if you do that, at the end of the turn it switches back. In that way, you still keep a drawback because certain cards only work when the Gemini monster is in a certain state (normal or effect).
I would just give them pend-like effects that you could switch between and have atleast one of them say its treated as a normal monster all the time.
I'd say just change it so they're also treated as normal monsters in hand and deck
Retrains of the elemental field spells. Could be interesting.
Besides the ones we got for Umi, right? Which I believe is on...5 now.
@@dannyharrell4818 I know there is enough of them that you can't put one copy of each in your deck because they're all Umi.
@@dannyharrell4818
I think not all of the Umis are field spells. I believe there's only 3 that are specifically field spells excluding the OG Umi.
@@xdragoonzero0 There's only one Umi card that isn't a Field Spell and it's a trap cards for reasons I can't fully understand because it's effect isn't worth it being trap while having a SOPT.
@@dannyharrell4818 The new Sea Stealth II also becomes Umi on field as well. But Umi (Ocean) at least has a fun gimmick to it's many retrains in that they're each based on the oceans of our world or places believed to exist somewhere in the ocean at one time.
That could be a way to handle retrains for cards like Forest and Mountain, basing them off real/ legendary locations. Pacifis was designed w/ Phantasm Spiral in mind and Magellancia w/ Deep Sea so they'd probably come with a complementary archetype.
they need to make an archetype of that monster Bakura used in the final season, Diabound? or something
Diabound Kernal yeah that'd be sick
I'd like to see the Robo- archetype retrained: Roboyarou, Robolady, and their Super versions need a better set of cards.
Fierce Tiger Menghu is really meant to be played with Wanghu. That said, yeah, it would've been better had they tweaked things with its effect.
Duelist pack TRISTAN WHEN KONAMI.
@@hughjass2640 They just came out with Clockwork Night, one of the cards the Big Five used against him, so it would make sense for them to retrain his cards, too.
Other iconic cards I'd like to see retrained: Panther Warrior (make it so that its tribute effect does more than just "attack goes burrrrrr"), more Landstar cards for Joey, Super War-Lion would be sick to see, King of the Beasts (the Moja "boss monster") being retrained to make the payoff for it in Beast decks better would be interesting, maybe Lycanthrope/Cu Chulainn retrain? How about, since they don't seem to be making new match winner cards for prizes, anymore, retrain the existing ones into legal versions with cool effects for the three tribute + Direct Attack combo?
Also, retrains of the "Knight of Jackal" cards would be sick. Give the fans a new Jackal-Lock archetype to work with.
And, finally, while not a retrain per se, some sort of bridge between the beast-warrior Phantom Beasts and the Mecha Phantom Beasts would be appreciated.
i want a retrain for pikeru. Like why are princess pikeru and princess curran so insanely difficult to summon? did they really think those effects were so busted they needed to resort to such difficult summon conditions? They could have made it possible to normal summon the princesses and they still wouldnt have been good.
The Guardian monsters. Fairly iconic and could be am interesting archetype if given some care.
No one mentioned Serpent Night Dragon. Unbelievable. Seiyaryu got its archetype and it's got lore connections. Just imagine a dragon with similar smaller monsters meant to manipulate SND but instead of hand to field and back, grave to field and back.
i LOVE serpent night dragon
This aged well.
I want them to create a Ritual Spell that works on ANY RITUAL MONSTER that has NO EFFECT. This would cover all the old Rituals that were left and forgotten.
The Spell uses your OPPONENT'S Field as Tribute Fodder essentially turning Old Rituals into a Lava Golem/Kaiju that just brings out a big beater instead of Burn. Could also have a version that substitutes your opponents Backrow as Monster Tribute.
These spells could then give the Vanilla Ritual immunity to that card type, so tribute your opponent's monsters and they are immune to Monster Effects, and such.
This would make Vanilla's viable(To a degree) and ensure that rituals still feel like a worthy investment
I’d like an ojama retrain that allows them to work with the armed dragon lighting cards, that way we can chazz it up faster
A lot of the Ojama support cards already do this
@@dewott3754 I’m mainly talking about yellow, black, and green, that still have their original names so they can still be used for ojama king
I think Ojama support that focused more on zone lockdown would be cooler tbh
@@ashikjaman1940you must be loving kashtira then
The paradox labyrinth monsters not having some legacy archetype retrain kind of thing is just mind-boggling to me.
They mostly have level 5 (monster tamer, dungeon worm, labyrinth wall, shadow ghoul) and level 7 (the majins, labyrinth tank, wall shadow) with only Gate Guardian and Jirai Gumo not being of those levels.
They very easily at any point could've been an archetype focused around those two levels and fusions, with Wall Shadow, Labyrinth tank and Gate Guardian being fusion monsters or something. Or make it a rank 5/7 focused archetype or something.
The Gate Guardian could be a XYZ because he is basically that : 3 monsters together
@@JonSJohnny
Xyz or contact fusion. Just anything that's not another link
They could atleast reference it with the Labrynth cards lol.
A Labyrinth Wall retrain that could bei used either as a Monster or a field spell would be interesting where it has different effects similar to a pendulum Monster.
I keep saying a Gate Guardian retrain should be a Xyz monster because he's 3 monsters stacked together, but 2020s Konami is incapable of giving DM-era stuff that isn't Fusion or Ritual related, so I have no hopes for it. Maybe if it was during Zexal or Arc-V era I could have gotten my wish, but I don't see it happening today.
Fun fact: The Masked Beast etc. got retrains in the Go Rush anime
Although they are recent, the Triamid had a legitimately fun deck idea of swapping field spells that sadly wasnt explored more, it would be cool to see some potential ideas for it. I mean we have that one field spell fusion card for Ursarctic and Drytron so
maybe they can do that?
Doesn't Dream Mirror do that but better?
@@sabeelmakhdoom8415 funny power rangers zeo lookalike deck tho
@@sabeelmakhdoom8415 Playing dream mirrors right now. Crying from how their main starter always gets negated
@@sabeelmakhdoom8415 triamid is better no cap
More support =/= retrains. A bit off the point of the video.
Just saying
Gradius and the BES cards could use em
I know it's an odd choice, but I'd like to see retains of the Skull Servant fusions cards making them treated as skull servant cards in the graveyard along with retrains of Skull dog Marron normal monster being able to "fetch" any level 3 or lower zombie monster from your deck as well as a way to fusion summon from your deck by milling cards to your graveyard helping the decks goal.
maybe some Volcanic or Vylon seriously they need something better
And after 19 long years, we finally have 4 gate guardian retrains!!!!
I think it could be neat to see retrains of some of the key cards of the old "Princess Burn" deck, at least the staple monsters of the deck (White Magician Pikeru, Ebon Magician Curran, Flame Princess). It'd be a fun little homage to an older format to make an archetype where these cards all have actual synergy, instead of being held together by DM staples, hopes, and dreams.
In the same vein, they could also do something with the Hand cards from HAT, or Bad Reaction to Simochi.
Huh, it only took 3 months after this video for the Gate Guardian support to come out
Its crazy how BOTH Ultimate Blue-eyes White Dragon and Black Luster Soldier have different versions but we have yet to see a new fusion with both of them.
The Masked Beasts actually received a retrain in Rush Duels to become a WATER/Pyro deck
Still waitting for retrains of Volcanics and Earthboud Immortal - i loved the EI idea of Fusion summon and Synchro summon at the same time. Also the old Elemental Hero Vanillas as effect monsters would be dope
Well this video aged very quickly
5:50 somewhat irrelevant but White Horn was in the R manga, so I assume they could do something else with it if they wanted to. Could be interesting, but not sure how exactly they’d go about it
Dark Blade is remembered probably because he's the best all around Union when that mechanic came out. Everyone had him, Pitch Dark Dragon and Frontline Base so he was actually playable on some level. Not good, but you ould actually do the damn combo.
He can also be grabbed with Reinforcement of the Army.
I just want Kiryu to come back. People talk about Pitch Dark but Kiryu was my Jam. Dark Blade even has captain of dark world or whatever.
Link 1's are such a great use for retrains (requiring their original counterpart as material) that I'm surprised Konami hasn't touched
like... imagine a Yubel retrain that requires any Yubel monster, with her original gimmick but with the bonus that your opponent cannot activate monster effects til after she has been attacked that turn or something
You have to be careful with designing Link 1s since it's so easy to break them but in that manner, it would probably be too unplayable. I'd honestly just make it like a more or less generic Link 2 to Link 4 with the option of Link Summoning using a Yubel monster as the full material like what Salamangreats do with their Link monsters and their Field Spell.
@@ShiningJudgment666 Here is my idea:
Yubel's Descent
Normal Spell
Add 1 "Yubel" card from your Deck to your hand, and if you do, Special Summon 2 "HERO Scion Tokens" (Fiend/DARK/Level 4/ATK 0/DEF 0) to your field in Defense Position, but they cannot be used as Link Material. You can only activate 1 "Yubel's Descent" per turn
Yubel's Devotion
Continuous Trap
You cannot Special Summon monsters, except "Yubel" monsters and "HERO Scion Tokens". While you control a "Yubel" monster, your opponent skips their Main Phase 1. At the start of the Battle Phase: You can activate this effect; monsters your opponent currently controls must attack, if able. If you do not control a "Yubel" monster, send this card to the GY.
Love is Pain
Normal Trap
(This card is always treated as a "Yubel" card)
If all monsters you control are "Yubel" monsters (min. 1): Target 1 monster your opponent controls, destroy it, and if you do, both players take damage equal to its ATK. During the Main Phase, if this card is in the GY: You can banish this card from your GY, then destroy 1 "Yubel" monster in your hand or field
I'd love to see a new Silent Magician just cause it's a favourite of mine
I'd love to see a venom swamp retrain. One of my favourite gimmicks in the game.
Obviously we need to build an archetype around one of Yugi's most iconic monsters that being Winged Dragon, Guardian of the Fortress #1.
For Konami to make normal monsters relevant again. Outside of being a garnet. they should make 1-4 star vanillas with 2600+ attack. 5-6 stars with 3200+ attack. And 7+ stars with like 4k atk.
It would just be a return to how normal monsters were supposed to be from the origin of the game. Effect monsters were supposed to have low stats but good effects. Normal monsters supposed to have superior stats but no effects.
Sadly Konami forgot this and vanilla/normal monsters have been fading into obscurity ever since.
They'd probably still not see any play unless they're Blue-Eyes or Dark Magician or have like 8k ATK.
The sphinx monsters I would love for them to have a new archetype/support 😁😁😁
... who said horus needs a retrain....
You know the four elemental Structue Deck from 2005-2006? It always have feel weird to me how the Boss of the Water and Wind Decks got so much love, with Daedalus having a shit ton of retrains and Simorhg and entire archetype, while Infernal Flame Emperor and Exxod, Master of the Guard get not love at all (I think Infernal Flame Vixen is inspired on Emperor, but I refuse to count that). I would love if they get the Light/Dark treatment like Dark Simorgh and Lightray Daedalus
There's a few from me:
Cyber Ogre: I can imagine a more concrete archetype that's kind of like Gunkan or Skull Servant, where their members can have their names be also treated as "Cyber Ogre".
With the Attribute Boosters getting Link retrains, I kind of want the Attribute Summoners (like Mother Grizzly and Mystic Tomato) to get a similar treatment, like a more advance, stronger version of the old cards.
Finally, with all the talk of the old Rituals in the video, I also want Fortress Whale to get the same treatment. I just think it looks very cool, and I like the name of it's Ritual Spell, "Fortress Whale's Oath".
Fortress Whale got retrained tho, in Citadel Whale
@@Mekmassimochannel Well, I meant more in the sense of making a retrain of Fortress Whale as a Ritual monster, instead of just an Effect Monster.
i want a reaper on the nightmare retrain just because the art goes so damn hard
also all the weirdoes that were "immortal" in dor
we still don't have carat idol
I'm just waiting for them to actually finish archetypes that they only bothered releasing like 2 cards for and at this point you might as well just retrain the originals too. Perfect example being White Night Dragon and White Night Queen.
With the recent Kairyu-Shin card, they also just made Ocean Dragon Lord (known as Kairyu-Shin in Japan, no relation) a series of Sea Serpents focused on Umi.
I just want them to finish the Chaos part of Dark Magician. The fact we still don't have a chaos version of Dark Magician girl is insane to me.
Guardian Eatos would be awesome
Hungry Burger needs its own archetype. Konami get on that!
Its crazy that this video suggested Gate Guardian, Battlin Boxer, Evol, Odion, Hungry Burger, OG Rituals, Horus of which in the last few years we got decent support for all of those. I know RATA memes stuff into existence but maybe MBT has the power to storytell support into existence too
Zoa and Metal Zoa would be dope
I feel this way about the Prophecy monsters. All of them needing to be on the field to (usually) recycle a single spellbook spell is just kind of meh
Give Panik's monsters a retain. I'd love to see an OP Castle of Dark Illusions
Give me a Castle of Dark Truths!
I kinda see Speeder as the potara retrain to Junk Warrior's fusion dance. That being said, I'd kill for a road/drill warrior retrain... or at least a nitro archetype so nitro synchron's text makes sense
I’d die for more Zoa/Metalzoa
Quick question, why does no one use closed forest as a side deck card to use against mystic mine/decks that need their field spells?
It's funny coming back to this video a year later and seeing which cards, like Hungry Burger and Gate Guardian, actually got retrain/support.
I think Pumpking the King of Ghosts would be a nice retrain. Make it so it doesn’t randomly need Castle of Dark Illusion to work.
I like the idea of more Zombified versions old Monsters like Tatsunecro or Glow-up Bloom.
I'd like to see retrains of Sun Dragon Inti and Moon Dragon Quilla. I know their material monsters got support recently, but the synchros themselves could use retrains. Either level 10 retrains like Chevalier de Fleur -> Barrone de Fleur or a retrain that turns Quilla into an actual Dark Synchro like the Ursarctic cards.
Also shocked at no mention of Yubel.
Zone eater retrain plz.
Well the hungry burger didn’t get a retrain but he did get a new archtype around him
things that have been retrained/released since video was uploaded
Gate guardian retrain (maze of memories)
battlin boxer got a wave of support (legendary duelists: soulburning volcano)
evol got a few new cards (duelist nexus)
dark blade retrain (deck build pack: valiant smashers)
hungry burger archetype (wild survivors)
horus adjacent cards (based on the sons of horus)
This video dated so well, most of the mentioned archetypes became playable with their new support.
And they did retrained gate guardian as a relatively playable fusion deck that just floodgates you!
This video kinda aged well
Especially the thumbnail
Retrain the original harpie ladies (to not use the same name) and the freaking JADEN's NORMAL E HEROES.(Avian, burstinatrix and the rest. Its strange that MBT didnt mentionate this)
How about a video on card groups that should be archetypes, but aren't, for whatever reason? I'm still salty and confused as to how Barbaros is an archetype sanctioned by Konami, despite having 3 cards to its name (and only one of them naming the achetype in their effect), while the Moja engine has the same amount of cards, has TWO cards that mention "Moja" in their effect, but it's not considered an archetype, itself.
Thought rule archfiend
He truly deserved even an Assault Mode retrain.
I would buy the shit out of masked beast retrains or new gate guardian cards
KYCOO! It's nostalgia-bait for both the Yugiboomers and the competitive players, it already has the name format set up for an archetype, and there's so much room to work with for banishing effects nowadays because it's so much more common now than it was back then.
Not just Gate Guardian, ALL the cards from the labyrinth episode are totally wasted. The 3 parts of the aforementioned Guardian, Labyrinth wall, Shadow Ghoul, Jirai Gumo, Labyrinth Tank... Instead they give Duke Devlin a strangely high number of retrains, bizarre one-offs like Yowie, but not a single Paradox Brother card?! I really can't think of why, they showed up in DM and GX, it's probably the same obscure reason Tien from DBZ is treated like shit, a secret cabal against bald chinese men.
Coming from the future to say Horus, Gate Guardian, and Battlin' Boxer all got their supports/retrains
Funny coming back to this after a year, most of them _did_ get their retrains!! The gift of prophecy
Zera the Mant has a face on his pelvic area and MBT decided to point out his bottom jaw
Some of the OG vanilla fusions which were also staples in Forbidden Memories would be nice, my particular favourite being Bickuribox.
I'm waiting for a 'The 13th Grave' archetype where the zombie monsters can attack from graveyard
Also I could imagine a 'flame' archetype where they spams a lot of flame counters all around, destroys cards that are not pyro monsters and have enough flame counters, negates some activated effects, give attackboosts for pyro monsters, also there would be one card what burns for the counters. And the main monster would be Flame Manipulator
I would like to see a retrain for Swordstalker. I mean Buster Blader got one, why not him. Hell I'd even just take an Ultra Rare printing of Swordstalker 😩
Oh wow, let’s see
>Gate guardian. Check
>evosaurs. Check
>battlin boxers. Check.
>Hungry burger. Check.
My vote would unironically be jerry beansman, i feel an adorable preschool fantasy archetype with food/ candy characters would be lit
A retrain of old school 5-6 star monsters would be do my nostalgic heart good. A new judgement man? Swordstalker? Trent?? They could be an architype of packfillers past.
There’s a lot that would be cool but Zoa+Metal zoa is probably up there as well as some of the Vanilla DM fusions (Metal Dragon,Fusionist etc)
White Horned Dragon is actually from Yu-Gi-Oh R. But we didn't get it until that weird McDonald's Pack. Would love to see a retrain or archetype for it, and the other dragons in that guy's deck.
Half of the ones in the video and comments almost immediately got a retrain
Conceptually, I love the Cucoon of Evolution idea.
An entire deck with little normal catapillers that grow into different big bugs would be cool!
I have no idea how you'd work it into the speed of the modern game though.
Cyber Ogre seems like an interesting thing to retrain. The series only consists of 1 effect monster, 1 trap card, and 1 fusion monster. In the anime, it's the deck used by the principal of Duel Academy when trying to stop Zane from acquiring the Cyberdark cards. He lost, of course, but Cyber Ogre #2 managed to be quite the obstacle to Cyber End Dragon.
Also, Cyber Ogre is supposed to be related to the "cyber art" of dueling along with Cyber Dragon and Cyberdark. And they are supposed to be rivals with the "psycho art" of dueling that uses Jinzo (Psycho Shocker in Japanese).
There's lots of ways to reinvent Cyber Ogre given the established lore in GX. And it's always great to see the potential of the decks of older duelists in order to actually make them feel like they are veterans compared to the characters within the age group of the protags.
The legendary dragons deserve a retain that makes them more of an archetype
I'd actually like to see actual retrains of the original run of six samurai monsters. The legendary and secret six samurai have a lot of playable monsters, but pretty much every original six samurai is downright unplayable despite having cool lore and aesthetic.
Ever since I was a kid playing the game, I've waited for Konami to release a "Ruler of the Blue Flame" monster to go with "Kagemusha of the Blue Flame." I just knew that someday he'd become fodder for an amazing card.
Someday...
Fun fact that guy is actually supposed to be "Shien's Body Double" (as in the Six Samurai guy), so he technically has an archetype already? He just sucks
The fact no one mentioned the floaters is odd.
Personally I want a labyrinth wall retrain. Maybe make it so it places itself into the field zone when destroyed and has something based off the anime effects when its there.
