Anime Decks that DON'T SUCK!!!

Ok, the crystal beast part felt directed at someone.

as a marincess player, it’s upsetting that the main boss monster (Aqua Argonaut) still doesn’t have an animation. And i have it as a Royal finish! and playstyle wise, I still have alot to learn from it but its so fun to play

Sad part with Trickstars is that they got support recently in MD, there is a normal spell called Angel of Blue Tears, however here's the kicker: It's not treated as a Trickstar card, the effect does nothing crazy or game changing, it's a UR for some reason, AND it's better in a stupid FTK strategy as it can search any normal trap in deck by banishing it after your opponent takes burn damage... like did we play the same deck Konami?

9:10 NEVER MENTION THAT MANGA TWIST AGAIN

As someone who played synchrons as their first deck in high school, around 10ish years ago, kinda disappointed how the archetype ended up. When J.Speeder first came out, i was excited that it encouraged synchro summoning as hard as possible. Now i realized that lead to most variants of the deck being solitaire-style "win on the first turn, cuz you'll never recover if you dont." Leaves little room for any back-and-forth in the game.

Sunavalon I'd say falls under the same umbrella as Dragon Link (if we're counting that as Rokkets), sure there's Rikka Sunavalon which is moreso Rikka than it is Sunavalon, but Sunavalon enables Plant Piles of Rikka, Aromage, Therions (sort of), and even Predaplant if you want The Rikka variant is the popular one for having powerful recovery, but leaning into its Sunavalon side hands you so much endboard power (though added fragility) that its other variant doesn't have, I don't even think Sunavalon combo is solved yet, the Plant pool that Sunavalon can abuse has barely been experimented with

I've been playing with heroes since I was in middle school so I guess it's a deck I'm just very attached to and will not let go of.

Can't wait for the new galaxy support in the next pack

I have a strange relation with Pendulums, is a I like them as a mechanic, but can't pilot them properly. I still made a Pend Magician deck and was fun for a while. I also own Salad and Marincess. Haven't played them in a while, but I know they still work so I'll revisit them later.

The sad thing about Zexal is it had the potential to create so many new decks, but they just printed like 5 cards for said archetypes and then never touched them again Star Seraph, Umbral Horror, Battlin' Boxer, Butterfly Assasins, the Hands, the one Mosquito guy I forgot the name of And even the decks that did receive a substantial amount of cards (Chronomaly and Heroics come to mind) are still lacking in terms of power level when compared to modern standards

I weirdly have a ton of fun with sigfried's deck from the last season of classic yugioh. The valkyrie's they don't win too much but its still just generally fun to play with. I agree with your picks, I've tried most of these decks and they are still pretty decent. I weirdly still win with dark magican and get my arse kicked by blue eyes too often. Lol.

Red-eyes player here. I don't care if my deck is bad. I'm super proud of it.

Arc V has so many good decks with waves of supports after their initial release... and then there are battlewasps

Arc-V has a character that plays Gladiator Beast, can we consider it as anime deck now?

Anime fan:But where is cyber angels oh dragon rose they are very good and go to top tier. Is no a deck is a engine oh when you used black rose dragón other that destroy the field

Egyptian gods are loads of fun to play! Nothing is more fun than using Soul Crossing to tribute all of your opponent's monsters to summon Slifer! (Yes it's easy to brick if you don't draw your Egyptian god, but hey...)

Dark world is gx archetype btw

I thought i was the only one who really wanted the armitos legio deck to be real 😭

Ok gonna be blunt. Top 3 decks I have used so far in master duel. Blackwings, Superheavy samurai, and salamangreats. I used Superheavy samurai before we got the new support and I loved it. It’s a literally spell deck punisher. If it tells ya anything I was able to stop shut down and destroy Sky Strikers with it.

Code talker player here. The moment people see Accesscode in my Extra Deck they always try to banish it first, as if the rest of the crew couldn't OTK them anyways. Also I have two little cards that nobody uses, Firewall Dragon and Firewall Exceed Dragon.
