This is probably one of the most comprehensive primers to the infernoble knight strategy that I've ever seen, and it's entertaining to boot! You've earned a subscriber!
I’ve had my flaming knights sitting in a pile for a while cuz I wasn’t sure how to approach this. Your video and advice inspired me to pick them up and finally build a deck! Thank you!
Mark tends not to give out specific lists, so you can go off the combos in the video and add the necessary cards, then adjust ratios yourself based on what you’d want to see! He leaves the actual deck building up to you.
dude this is the first video we've come across on your channel. Love it! you did amazing! made our day and for sure looking forward to seeing more of your content! :):)
Omg this was an amazing video, i passed through a lot of infernoble knights video seeking something that really sparks me from inside and then after almost losing all my hope🎉 tan dan here i am haha thanks man for the video cheers from Brazil
i really liked your video it was well explained and i discovered a lot of techs that i didnt know , i love infernobles , your video was really fun i was laughing a lot
My favourite archetype of all time! Infernoble knights kick ass! I personally prefer a going 2nd approach with the deck; focusing on the OG Synchro boss and its board breaking abilities :D
Noble knights and infernoble knights build the castle gameplay is just so much fun and reviwing the things i knew and the things i didnt know made me go back and finish my noble knight catalogue because well You never know when more fun support shows up for our knights
Although, is it really "protect the castle" gameplay when the castle is now so powerful that the game ends in one round? Gearfried and Charles the Great do EVERYTHING.
This video was hilarious and now I know more Infernoble plays outside what I play. May we get a deck list in the future? That way we can get the $60 deck or attempt to make it in MD?
The cards in this video are not all one build or main deck. These themes have so much search power that you can run whatever cards you like (or all of them) and the deck will still work just fine.
Hi Mark, amazing video as usual. I would really love if you could take a look at the fiend link deck. Its best cards (the fiendsmiths) release in the next core set in July I believe, but i would love to see your crazy take on the deck. Currently most of the strategies used are: Yubel, unchained, sacred beasts, and the fiendsmiths. I know its a big ask, but I would love to see if you could make it viable without the fiendsmiths. It’s a ton of work, so you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to, but i’d love to see it. Thanks for your consideration, keep up the awesome work, we appreciate everything you make for us!
I don't know anything about those Fiend decks, sorry. I avoid popular combo piles because they're more expensive, lack the element of surprise, and most importantly, they require trudging through vast card pools which those themes' veteran pilots will know far better than me. Looking at a list using those four engines... YIKES. I've never seen a deck with so many random cards which were never reprinted! If somebody wants a budget Fiend deck, just hand them Dark World and call it a day!
NK are my favorites and I hate I can't play them consistently. I guess I have to sell my loyalty to the French. Thanks to this video I will bite the bullet. Thanks! You made me a traitor!
I remember getting (and still have) both my Galactic Overlord promo Noble Knight Artorigus and Cosmo Blazar promo Noble Arms - Caliburn back in the day when card shops did Sneak Peak events. I even pulled a Noble Knight Medraut from my sneak peak Cosmo Blazar which I promptly sold at the time, as Fire Fists was the theme I was more interested in and my wallet wanted 60$. Fast forward many years I picked up an Infernoble core cheap after Linkross got banned. New players would be shocked at the laundry list of past honorary Noble Knights like various Mecha Phantom Beasts or Deskbot 001 that we needed to accomplish the wild boards the deck used to end on. Even now its still my pet deck that Ive been blinging it out with the high rarity love Infernobles have received. Not familiar with your work, video was a youtube recommendation but will definitely check out more.
I also sold my old CBLZ Medrauts back then, when it became clear that Noble Knights would stay far more expensive than they were worth. But let's not call O-lion or Deskbots honorary knights--I do not miss the days of checking out "rogue" deck profiles that were actually just vehicles for the Halq combo of the month. I also appreciate what Infernobles have done, but at the same time... I wish the original cards hadn't gotten so totally abandoned. So many cool designs that will never find a home in any format. :'(
I still have trauma from when Lightsworn was allowed to dominate local tournaments for 2-3 years, so I'd rather tear up every Lightsworn card in existence. UM, ANYWAY... the new LS cards feel much more insular to me--they've moved away from generic milling because of the Ishizu card. There are probably countless LS/Chaos veterans with creative decks to show off. I would only have authority on CB hybrids. LS/CB has been attempted throughout the ages, with Crystal Blessing, Ayer's Rock Sunrise, and Rainbow Dragon, but I never heard of a consistent build, and CBs have little use for random milling anymore. I'll look into it but I've found the new cards clunky so far.
medraut is nice for making infernal flame banshee with ogier bif your willing to run poplar. also using flame swordsman vs medraut at the moment though.
Oh woah, this is the guy who did the outstanding Crystal Beast video. I hope the algorithm helps push your stuff more, such a shame this is the first thing to show up since the Crystal Beast video
He's at it again! While I can't completely blame the algorithm because my channel is all over the place, it's definitely been... interesting to see how inconsistent it can be. Humanity is increasingly deferring our socialization to machines which not even the developers fully understand.
You can run the super heavy engine (3x prodigy, 3x motor bike, 1x soul horns, 1x monk) and that can get you to angelica or ip if you’re running it and won’t take up your normal summon plus can get you a pendulum summon. And prometian princess can be helpful
I see... Someone once mentioned Superheavy but I had no idea what they were talking about. (My only experience was somehow beating it at an OTS which I didn't expect would be allowing CYAC early--those couple of weeks when it was an absurdly consistent FTK deck. So I've tried to purge it from my blissful little mind.) I can see that engine being really useful in more link-focused builds. Probably ones which use Flame Swordsman to trigger Cross-Sheep. But I'm not using S:P so there was no point in looking into that stuff. Is it stronger than these budget options? Maybe, but definitely not $130 stronger.
@@MarkThePage you don’t need s:p little knight, and the main thing i use the engine for is just to go into angelica and chain blocking angelica with prodigy so that they can’t ash blossom the angelica searching the card that mentions charles.
After looking through deck profiles and videos to see if there's anything I'm missing out on in my own build and play patterns, I'm beginning to feel like I'm the only straight person that plays this deck. Maybe there's something wrong here.
I enjoyed the video enough to forgive the disrespect to my Brit-knights, great video, the hit to Isolde while I still grieve has just cut my deck size from 60 to 45~
Isolde's ban knocking the Brits out of our decks was because Konami knew we weren't going to play good cards until forced to. Being Noble Knight fans meant taking pride in our denial, because it was the only way to numb the pain.
Is there something I am missing about Camelot / Round Table? Camelot banishes itself until the next standby phase, but also places a field spell. Does that mean when the standby phase comes up, it replays itself and sends the Round Table to the GY? At 11:14 you show it going to your hand, but is that just a visual error? I've loved IKs ever since they came out and have decided to go back to the silly frenchies after all the Fiend Pile investments never paid off, because I love my dudes with swords. Thanks!
That's correct--when Camelot returns during the next standby phase, Round Table goes to the GY. Then when you activate Camelot's search effect again on your next turn, it'll put Round Table back into the field zone (from anywhere). The idea is that you'll continually loop them.
I'll actually add the vanquish soul engine with the main monster who is a fire monster summonable with stake your soul, who can basically grant you 2 extra monster for free.
I'm trying this out now! Razen and Mad Love can get 2 level 4s, without a normal summon if using Stake Your Soul, plus they have some removal options for going second. Interesting stuff!
15:19 Actually, junk connector can be used to synchro summon the card you're summoning with the trap card. Clunky, but i don't see any other mean to do it lol.
How did I not think to look up link monsters for synchro summoning! I think the best Junk Connector could do is to summon Lavalval Exlord. But at the cost of 2 materials and the EMZ, it's too expensive. Best alternative I've come up with is that Formula Synchron is possible in a Snake-Eye build and can summon Baronne in Master Duel.
Was using the eka combo for a while before isolde ban Recently learned Razen is also a noble knight Also I've been teching the vaylantz field spells recently too. They're tight
You were already using Vaylantz World!? And Eka!? If you were also using it to summon Great Shogun Shien then I don't know if it's safe to let you walk the streets freely. There's genius, and then there's insanity. (TELL ME MORE.)
@MarkThePage here's a funny 2 card combo Snake eye ash+any vaylantz field/search Ash is 1 card combo to double charles + gearfried or any link 2 or lvl 10 synch If you add in the vaylantz cards, you protect yourself from imperm and you can do the following: End on gearfried with double charles, use Shinra bansho to summon charles again and overly for Hyperyton (rank 9 omni neg) In EP, you'll activate charles to equip and hyperyton will chain to add a monster as material. That monster will be Flamberge. Guarantees follow up. Even more so if you linked into promethean
Konig wisson being a strong board breaker is a neat discovery as well. Potential 2-4 for 1 in card economy. A good example I remember is against snake eye, I opened vaylantz, got rid of their field spell, placed their flamberge in s/t, popping their set imperm and cutting them off from I:P and princess. Something ive also been testing is the sky striker engine. Engage going to 3 makes for a lot of board breaking potential. Drones being a lvl 1 is nice with Oliver. Shark cannon is strong in this meta. Also I mentioned vanquish soul. Razen being a fire warrior has good synergy but is a one card apolousa into full combo and has going second implication with razen and mad love secondary effects, depending on your build. Also stake your soul is cracked. It's good ash bait too I love infernoble man
I did NOT know what I was getting into when I replied to your comment. This is a LOT to think about as I reconsider my cards and also life choices. My combos are stale white bread compared to what you've been cooking.
I'm gonna be that weird guy that defends Noble Knights You can actually make a cohesive deck using both British and French knights Medraut is a great starter, being able to tag ou Borz, which can search Camelot, Museum and Durendal, granting you basically Angelica and a lvl 4 body on the field Also, Borz can send "Until Noble Arms are Needed Once Again" (or OA to simplify) to the GY, which means that if you reveal 2 by his effect, you'll have one for your opponent turn and one for your next turn, making it amazing on grind Also, there's Custennin, that locks you on Noble Knights if you use him to summon a extra deck Noble Knight. Since Angelica isn't a Noble Knight, Custennin and Durendal is free real estate (especially going second when you can equip Durendal to an opponent monster These are the best 3 for me, but you can use the other knights for some silly interactions. Brothers being soft once per turn makes you grind basically forever. Bedwyr can pass an equip to other monster on field, so if you pass Hauteclere to and opponent monster, you'll trigger Charles, that will pop that monster and then, Hauteclere pops another one. Drystan can be another pop, Eachtar is a recurring extender, and Gawayn can be a extender even if the only monster on your side of the field is the Nibiru token I really love Noble Knights, and its a shame that the deck have a lot of cards that essentially do nothing or simply makes you lose (I'm looking at you Merlin). I hope someday Konami give the deck the love it needs to at least be somewhat playable if played pure, and give us the damn Morgan searcher
By Merlin's beard, he really did it--he found some use for Bedwyr! I doubt it's optimal (especially compared to setting up Angelica's Ring) but I'm excited to have an excuse to try Bedwyr again! One of the best-looking cards ever printed (and never reprinted). Medraut getting Ashed is brutal since it leaves him at level 5, and his Borz combo requires either a suboptimal Noble Arms or two Infernoble Arms. Not sure how you'd get to Angelica from there, since Borz keeps his Arms and 5th star. A Boxer combo would take far less commitment, from the hand and the deck. Also, another commenter has pointed out Medraut -> Ogier -> Infernal Flame Banshee -> Snake-Eyes Poplar, which means Original Sinful Spoils -> Ricciardetto -> Angelica. Sounds better than Borz. Regardless, your kingdom acknowledges your deeds. Continue to bring honor to the crown!
@MarkThePage the idea to use Medraut is to summon Borz, pass the equip, then reveal 3 Durendal, use Durendal ro search Oliver and send the equip on Borz to gy to summon Oliver, so now you have a way to summon Angelica, a lvl 4 body and Oliver on gy to equip on Angelica And yes, the Boxer engine is better, I can't possibly deny that, but if someone really wants to use their platinum cards, that's a really good way (and probably the only good way) About Ash on Medraut: yeah, that sucks, but honestly, with the amount of ways to get Durendal here, this is not that big of deal, and I usually suffer more when they leave Ash to Angelica And lastly, the combo to Medraut>Ogier>Banshee is really good, but I feel that if you're committing to that, it would be better simply not to use the Arthurian cards. Also, even if you want to use both Arthurians and Snake-Eyes on Infernoble, you can summon Banshee later in the combo to make a bigger board Also, your video is amazing. You got my attention on that video about Tri-Brigades, and now you got a new subscription. Keep up the good work
Ah, I forgot about Oliver there! He was important in my old, mixed build, but now I never take him over Renaud. And yes, above all, the #1 strategy is whatever makes your favorite cards as good as they can be. When I'm hard on them, it comes from a place of never settling until finding plays which only those cards can pull off.
Sorry, I can't for the life of me get Chazz stuff to function outside of Speed Duel. I was trying just last night! I'll just watch some other people's carefully curated replays of finally hitting an Armed Dragon Catapult combo. :P
That's by far the most popular way to play Knights, so I didn't see any need to give my take on it. You can find lots of videos from other people who know those cards better than I do.
Awesome video congrats you deserve that like! One question for you tho, have you experimented with the IB engine Rudy Torres plays with? I want to understand if actually playing IB + battlin boxer is better than flame swordsman
Link-based Infernoble decks are so cool and interesting. They probably play through disruption better even after Baronne's banning, but Sparrer costing your battle phase going second is ROUGH. Considering that Flame Swordsman already sets up remarkably strong opening boards and is $500 cheaper... I'm gonna play the deck that's $500 cheaper.
@@MarkThePage those are my thoughts exactly! However, I didn’t mean the snake-eyes package, instead I meant the Ib the World Chalice Justiciar package as an alternative to flame swordsman… there is no space in the deck for both so you have to choose what works best. If you’ve tried both can you tell me what are your thoughts on that?
I haven't tried Ib, but it looks like that engine works because of Diabellestar -> Original Sinful Spoils -> Ricciardetto consistently enabling a second level 5 synchro summon, then providing material for links or Baronne. Without the expensive stuff, you probably either can't summon Ib often or can't do much with it. Flame Swordsman still has synergy with link builds for triggering Cross-Sheep and fueling Diabellestar's discard cost. I think you could run everything together. This deck has more than enough search power to comfortably go over 40 cards.
@@MarkThePage yes agreed.. the Snake-eyes engine makes everything more consistent and enables more plays or lets you play through more disruptions. The only problem? It’s way too overpriced and even if it’s reprinted it’ll still cost than the whole deck combined… plus, it’s most likely getting banned/ limited by the time it’s reprinted
What I showed in the video is exactly what I run. You can also swap the spells and traps between the main and side decks if you want--not every player uses them. Try everything to see how it fits with your personal style!
On the next turn, Salamandra the Flying Flame Dragon can equip itself from the graveyard again. When it's sent back, it can search for Salamandra Fusion.
The video was great! Glad to see Astolfo show up in a deck profile (i genuinely think its an underrated card in the archetype). Are there any future plans to stream yourself playing the deck, or a variant of it on Masterduel (I think all the infernoble knight stuff is out, but not the new flame swordsman stuff)?
Astolfo is hard to judge, as a level-changing special summon with a cost. I got to resolve the second effect maybe once a few years ago. I don't have this deck on Master Duel and would prefer to wait until the new support is added to the Infernoble pack, but I probably will end up playing this on stream next weekend. Without Flame Swordsman :'(
Hey, I just found this video. Do you have any sample decklists to share? Because while the combos look really awesome I would like to know how many garnets this deck has to include
Very few. Just Artorigus, and Ring, Eka, Shien, and Flame Sword traps if trying to break a board going second. Entirely dependent on what engines/combos you want to include in your deck.
I've been sticking to one Yugioh video per month so they don't completely take over my channel (or myself). The next upload on May 31st will be about Thunder Dragon Colossus. At this rate the dedicated video about side decks won't be until August. Sorry that feels like a lifetime away...
RIP isolde I loved this deck so much but it aint ever touching an ycs top 8 again, infernoble and mikanko got slaughtered so unfairly while all the top represented decks got slaps on the wrists
I think people are overreacting about the Isolde ban, just because the Easy button is gone. From personal experience with my Sapphire Surprise deck (featured in my first guide video) built around Verte, Verte's ban pushed me to innovate harder and find plays which were actually FAR stronger than Verte's easy but comparatively low power ceiling.
@@MarkThePage I actually really enjoyed your sapphire surprise video, so props there man! In my opinion the thing about isolde ban is that unlike verte where it homogenized a format by making any two effect monsters into a Dragoon, rainbow neos, mirrorjade etc, Isolde was first off, not nearly as generic and was actually the innovation point of infernoble because there was so many different lines, end boards and tech options that the card allowed people create. for example accessing the mikanko package which got you to nini + herald of arc light, D.D.R phoenix blade loops, Shogun shien lock etc. The deck also lost its best normal summon (and one card combo that let you play around hand traps) in neos space connector, you're also hard pressed to add anything useful off of Renaud special summon, playing around nibiru/droll is also way less consistent as well and makes your ceiling even lower and if you can't make angelica ( Which also far more specific to make and easier to stop than isolde) you basically just lose now. With all that said I still think infernoble is a fun, ok deck and it can still win if it goes first and makes it's full set-up but theres no world where it can compete with the current top meta and it only gets worse for the deck when terminal world and infinite forbidden come out. It’s unfortunate but losing 50-70% of your viable options just doesn’t leave much room for innovation.
I think if you try to play Knights as just "Isolde turbo, minus Isolde" then it's definitely going to underperform. I really like the Flame Swordsman cards because they play through disruption going first or second.
I probably overestimate how difficult Yugioh is to learn, but there are definitely MANY easier decks than this. Noble Knight isn't the trickiest combo deck (at least if you have Master Duel executing the effects for you), but it is very mechanically complex, with an overwhelming number of options. I would recommend it only if you really love the cards and don't mind a long learning curve.
If you know plant synchro and this video made sense to you, then you'll be fine! The synchro plays here are linear though--if you're pining for the more open-ended style, check out Synchron/Stardust, T.G., and Speedroid. I miss Reborn Tengu. He did nothing wrong.
I've been all-in on Noble Knights since the very beginning and I STILL can't believe how bad those cards are. It was with a heavy heart that I removed the last Medraut from my deck. Unfortunately I don't think even a Rainbow Bridge of the Heart could salvage the likes of Merlin and Peredurp.
Charles is such a safe pick. He's the name you blurt out when your classmates ask which Infernoble Knight you have a crush on and you're too afraid to tell them you're not actually attracted to Infernoble Knights.
This was a great video, always nice to see the fun and passion coming even from the more casual side of the Infernoble Knight players. Awesome Video - Rudy

I've loved IKs ever since they came out and have decided to go back to the silly frenchies after all the Fiend Pile investments never paid off, because I love my dudes with swords. Thanks!
That's correct--when Camelot returns during the next standby phase, Round Table goes to the GY. Then when you activate Camelot's search effect again on your next turn, it'll put Round Table back into the field zone (from anywhere). The idea is that you'll continually loop them.
@@MarkThePagei didn’t know about this thank you for this tech essentially your looping the 2 field spells
cover the vanquish soul engine next 😈
I'll actually add the vanquish soul engine with the main monster who is a fire monster summonable with stake your soul, who can basically grant you 2 extra monster for free.
I'm trying this out now! Razen and Mad Love can get 2 level 4s, without a normal summon if using Stake Your Soul, plus they have some removal options for going second. Interesting stuff!
15:19 Actually, junk connector can be used to synchro summon the card you're summoning with the trap card. Clunky, but i don't see any other mean to do it lol.
How did I not think to look up link monsters for synchro summoning! I think the best Junk Connector could do is to summon Lavalval Exlord. But at the cost of 2 materials and the EMZ, it's too expensive. Best alternative I've come up with is that Formula Synchron is possible in a Snake-Eye build and can summon Baronne in Master Duel.
Was using the eka combo for a while before isolde ban
Recently learned Razen is also a noble knight
Also I've been teching the vaylantz field spells recently too. They're tight
You were already using Vaylantz World!? And Eka!? If you were also using it to summon Great Shogun Shien then I don't know if it's safe to let you walk the streets freely. There's genius, and then there's insanity. (TELL ME MORE.)
@MarkThePage here's a funny 2 card combo
Snake eye ash+any vaylantz field/search
Ash is 1 card combo to double charles + gearfried or any link 2 or lvl 10 synch
If you add in the vaylantz cards, you protect yourself from imperm and you can do the following:
End on gearfried with double charles, use Shinra bansho to summon charles again and overly for Hyperyton (rank 9 omni neg)
In EP, you'll activate charles to equip and hyperyton will chain to add a monster as material. That monster will be Flamberge. Guarantees follow up. Even more so if you linked into promethean
Konig wisson being a strong board breaker is a neat discovery as well. Potential 2-4 for 1 in card economy. A good example I remember is against snake eye, I opened vaylantz, got rid of their field spell, placed their flamberge in s/t, popping their set imperm and cutting them off from I:P and princess.
Something ive also been testing is the sky striker engine. Engage going to 3 makes for a lot of board breaking potential. Drones being a lvl 1 is nice with Oliver. Shark cannon is strong in this meta.
Also I mentioned vanquish soul. Razen being a fire warrior has good synergy but is a one card apolousa into full combo and has going second implication with razen and mad love secondary effects, depending on your build. Also stake your soul is cracked. It's good ash bait too
I love infernoble man
I did NOT know what I was getting into when I replied to your comment. This is a LOT to think about as I reconsider my cards and also life choices. My combos are stale white bread compared to what you've been cooking.
Video was amazing! Do you have a deck list of all the cards you mentioned for "research purposes"
I'm gonna be that weird guy that defends Noble Knights
You can actually make a cohesive deck using both British and French knights
Medraut is a great starter, being able to tag ou Borz, which can search Camelot, Museum and Durendal, granting you basically Angelica and a lvl 4 body on the field
Also, Borz can send "Until Noble Arms are Needed Once Again" (or OA to simplify) to the GY, which means that if you reveal 2 by his effect, you'll have one for your opponent turn and one for your next turn, making it amazing on grind
Also, there's Custennin, that locks you on Noble Knights if you use him to summon a extra deck Noble Knight. Since Angelica isn't a Noble Knight, Custennin and Durendal is free real estate (especially going second when you can equip Durendal to an opponent monster
These are the best 3 for me, but you can use the other knights for some silly interactions. Brothers being soft once per turn makes you grind basically forever. Bedwyr can pass an equip to other monster on field, so if you pass Hauteclere to and opponent monster, you'll trigger Charles, that will pop that monster and then, Hauteclere pops another one. Drystan can be another pop, Eachtar is a recurring extender, and Gawayn can be a extender even if the only monster on your side of the field is the Nibiru token
I really love Noble Knights, and its a shame that the deck have a lot of cards that essentially do nothing or simply makes you lose (I'm looking at you Merlin). I hope someday Konami give the deck the love it needs to at least be somewhat playable if played pure, and give us the damn Morgan searcher
By Merlin's beard, he really did it--he found some use for Bedwyr! I doubt it's optimal (especially compared to setting up Angelica's Ring) but I'm excited to have an excuse to try Bedwyr again! One of the best-looking cards ever printed (and never reprinted).
Medraut getting Ashed is brutal since it leaves him at level 5, and his Borz combo requires either a suboptimal Noble Arms or two Infernoble Arms. Not sure how you'd get to Angelica from there, since Borz keeps his Arms and 5th star. A Boxer combo would take far less commitment, from the hand and the deck. Also, another commenter has pointed out Medraut -> Ogier -> Infernal Flame Banshee -> Snake-Eyes Poplar, which means Original Sinful Spoils -> Ricciardetto -> Angelica. Sounds better than Borz.
Regardless, your kingdom acknowledges your deeds. Continue to bring honor to the crown!
@MarkThePage the idea to use Medraut is to summon Borz, pass the equip, then reveal 3 Durendal, use Durendal ro search Oliver and send the equip on Borz to gy to summon Oliver, so now you have a way to summon Angelica, a lvl 4 body and Oliver on gy to equip on Angelica
And yes, the Boxer engine is better, I can't possibly deny that, but if someone really wants to use their platinum cards, that's a really good way (and probably the only good way)
About Ash on Medraut: yeah, that sucks, but honestly, with the amount of ways to get Durendal here, this is not that big of deal, and I usually suffer more when they leave Ash to Angelica
And lastly, the combo to Medraut>Ogier>Banshee is really good, but I feel that if you're committing to that, it would be better simply not to use the Arthurian cards. Also, even if you want to use both Arthurians and Snake-Eyes on Infernoble, you can summon Banshee later in the combo to make a bigger board
Also, your video is amazing. You got my attention on that video about Tri-Brigades, and now you got a new subscription. Keep up the good work
Ah, I forgot about Oliver there! He was important in my old, mixed build, but now I never take him over Renaud. And yes, above all, the #1 strategy is whatever makes your favorite cards as good as they can be. When I'm hard on them, it comes from a place of never settling until finding plays which only those cards can pull off.
Deck profile, please! 😂
Great vid men tks !!!!! Hey do you play master duel ?? Could you do a vid plz plz of infernobles in MD ❤❤
Since you talk about Chazz at the end
Armed Dragon thunder deck profile when😂
Sorry, I can't for the life of me get Chazz stuff to function outside of Speed Duel. I was trying just last night! I'll just watch some other people's carefully curated replays of finally hitting an Armed Dragon Catapult combo. :P
Could we get a version with diabellstar as an engine cause original sinful spoils can summon riccardeto and Renaud
That's by far the most popular way to play Knights, so I didn't see any need to give my take on it. You can find lots of videos from other people who know those cards better than I do.
Awesome video congrats you deserve that like! One question for you tho, have you experimented with the IB engine Rudy Torres plays with? I want to understand if actually playing IB + battlin boxer is better than flame swordsman
Link-based Infernoble decks are so cool and interesting. They probably play through disruption better even after Baronne's banning, but Sparrer costing your battle phase going second is ROUGH. Considering that Flame Swordsman already sets up remarkably strong opening boards and is $500 cheaper... I'm gonna play the deck that's $500 cheaper.
@@MarkThePage those are my thoughts exactly! However, I didn’t mean the snake-eyes package, instead I meant the Ib the World Chalice Justiciar package as an alternative to flame swordsman… there is no space in the deck for both so you have to choose what works best. If you’ve tried both can you tell me what are your thoughts on that?
I haven't tried Ib, but it looks like that engine works because of Diabellestar -> Original Sinful Spoils -> Ricciardetto consistently enabling a second level 5 synchro summon, then providing material for links or Baronne. Without the expensive stuff, you probably either can't summon Ib often or can't do much with it.
Flame Swordsman still has synergy with link builds for triggering Cross-Sheep and fueling Diabellestar's discard cost. I think you could run everything together. This deck has more than enough search power to comfortably go over 40 cards.
@@MarkThePage yes agreed.. the Snake-eyes engine makes everything more consistent and enables more plays or lets you play through more disruptions. The only problem? It’s way too overpriced and even if it’s reprinted it’ll still cost than the whole deck combined… plus, it’s most likely getting banned/ limited by the time it’s reprinted
can we get the flame swordsman engine decklist?
What I showed in the video is exactly what I run. You can also swap the spells and traps between the main and side decks if you want--not every player uses them. Try everything to see how it fits with your personal style!
She shien my great shogun until I fire warrior
What about Mirage Swordsman
That card is unbelievably bad. I was never able to summon it, but even if I could, the only reward is that it can destroy one monster it battles.
1:39 😂😂😂
So during the "example turn" of the video. How did you Special summon Ultimate Flame Swordsman with the two trap cards again?
On the next turn, Salamandra the Flying Flame Dragon can equip itself from the graveyard again. When it's sent back, it can search for Salamandra Fusion.
@@MarkThePage Thanks boss
The video was great! Glad to see Astolfo show up in a deck profile (i genuinely think its an underrated card in the archetype).
Are there any future plans to stream yourself playing the deck, or a variant of it on Masterduel (I think all the infernoble knight stuff is out, but not the new flame swordsman stuff)?
Astolfo is hard to judge, as a level-changing special summon with a cost. I got to resolve the second effect maybe once a few years ago.
I don't have this deck on Master Duel and would prefer to wait until the new support is added to the Infernoble pack, but I probably will end up playing this on stream next weekend. Without Flame Swordsman :'(

Still don't know YuGiOh but I heard my name a lot. -Charlemagne
Oh no, you watched another Yugioh video! I would've given you a jumpscare warning. I promise I've had that Charlamagne card since before we met.
Wait? This deck does stuff without isolde?
I don't know what it does WITH Isolde! :D
@@MarkThePage mostly makes non noble knight stuff in MD?
there's a few 1-card setups that allow for bamboo sword turnskip stuff with isolde+renaud
Hey, I just found this video. Do you have any sample decklists to share? Because while the combos look really awesome I would like to know how many garnets this deck has to include
Very few. Just Artorigus, and Ring, Eka, Shien, and Flame Sword traps if trying to break a board going second. Entirely dependent on what engines/combos you want to include in your deck.
What about Merlin :?
The less we speak of Merlin, the better... Disabling Angelica and Charles the Great make it totally unplayable.
Could you point me to a deck profile?
Where is the crystal beast side deck video? 😢
I've been sticking to one Yugioh video per month so they don't completely take over my channel (or myself). The next upload on May 31st will be about Thunder Dragon Colossus. At this rate the dedicated video about side decks won't be until August. Sorry that feels like a lifetime away...
The monty python refrence
RIP isolde I loved this deck so much but it aint ever touching an ycs top 8 again, infernoble and mikanko got slaughtered so unfairly while all the top represented decks got slaps on the wrists
I think people are overreacting about the Isolde ban, just because the Easy button is gone. From personal experience with my Sapphire Surprise deck (featured in my first guide video) built around Verte, Verte's ban pushed me to innovate harder and find plays which were actually FAR stronger than Verte's easy but comparatively low power ceiling.
@@MarkThePage I actually really enjoyed your sapphire surprise video, so props there man! In my opinion the thing about isolde ban is that unlike verte where it homogenized a format by making any two effect monsters into a Dragoon, rainbow neos, mirrorjade etc, Isolde was first off, not nearly as generic and was actually the innovation point of infernoble because there was so many different lines, end boards and tech options that the card allowed people create. for example accessing the mikanko package which got you to nini + herald of arc light, D.D.R phoenix blade loops, Shogun shien lock etc. The deck also lost its best normal summon (and one card combo that let you play around hand traps) in neos space connector, you're also hard pressed to add anything useful off of Renaud special summon, playing around nibiru/droll is also way less consistent as well and makes your ceiling even lower and if you can't make angelica ( Which also far more specific to make and easier to stop than isolde) you basically just lose now. With all that said I still think infernoble is a fun, ok deck and it can still win if it goes first and makes it's full set-up but theres no world where it can compete with the current top meta and it only gets worse for the deck when terminal world and infinite forbidden come out. It’s unfortunate but losing 50-70% of your viable options just doesn’t leave much room for innovation.
I think if you try to play Knights as just "Isolde turbo, minus Isolde" then it's definitely going to underperform. I really like the Flame Swordsman cards because they play through disruption going first or second.
As a newcomer/ returner, woudl you recommend this deck to a newbie? XD
I probably overestimate how difficult Yugioh is to learn, but there are definitely MANY easier decks than this. Noble Knight isn't the trickiest combo deck (at least if you have Master Duel executing the effects for you), but it is very mechanically complex, with an overwhelming number of options. I would recommend it only if you really love the cards and don't mind a long learning curve.
@@MarkThePage months old video and a reply. Earned a sub
@@MarkThePage to answer your concerns. I stopped right before pends and loved combo decks that were dumb like synchro plant and such so we will see
If you know plant synchro and this video made sense to you, then you'll be fine! The synchro plays here are linear though--if you're pining for the more open-ended style, check out Synchron/Stardust, T.G., and Speedroid.
I miss Reborn Tengu. He did nothing wrong.
@@MarkThePage Know it might be a bit much... ahha I was definitely carried by Tengu/ Quasar.
Don't disrespect the Arthurian Knigts, it hurts my feelings 😢
I've been all-in on Noble Knights since the very beginning and I STILL can't believe how bad those cards are. It was with a heavy heart that I removed the last Medraut from my deck. Unfortunately I don't think even a Rainbow Bridge of the Heart could salvage the likes of Merlin and Peredurp.
Charles is the hottest noble knight
Charles is such a safe pick. He's the name you blurt out when your classmates ask which Infernoble Knight you have a crush on and you're too afraid to tell them you're not actually attracted to Infernoble Knights.
@@MarkThePage yeah but I can't just outright tell people Astolfo or they'll think i'm weird
OOF yeah you gotta ease people into that freaky stuff
