A year following the last article about a TCG-Premiere archetype on Noble Knights, I decided to get together with the other U.A. fanboy on the YGOrg writing staff (UltimateKuriboh) and work on creating a comprehensive guide to the U.A. (Ultra Athlete) archetype! Click below to read about the sport freaks in all of their glory, and learn how you […]

In the story of the Duel Terminals, there was a peaceful tribe named the Gem-Knights… They were resilient, they had fought off the invaders time and time again. However, now smoke descended upon the peaceful village, rendering them unawares of those emerging from the depths of the restless ground beneath. The assault from the Firey Woodlands had begun! […]

The World was changing. Against the invasion of the Worms, no tribe of the original Terminal World could stand alone. And none could ignore the fight, even the most peaceful of the Duel Terminal Tribes. Hiding in their Forest, the Naturia tried to avoid getting caught in the conflict; but now, the fight had come to them for […]

In the story of the Duel Terminals, the Constellar left behind a series of machines to watch the seal they placed upon the Steelswarm prior to ascending into the stars during The Ancient Era. From the high heavens, these holy machines watched and waited. Now for the first time, the Vylon were finally entering the fray… […]

Welcome to my next CDS article, and this week, we are going to be discussing a theme that never really got its time in the spotlight for what it was intended. I’m sure you’ve guessed it by now, but the Tech Genus monsters never caught on for a variety of reasons; mostly that the Synchro […]

This edition of the Casual Deck Strategy articles features an archetype that began in the GX era! And no, before you guess it, I’m not talking about Aliens, my absolute favorite archetype (and my first IRL deck). This archetype doesn’t even share common effects or trends, and they may have one of the largest number of almost […]

Welcome to another addition of the Casual Deck Strategy articles, and this time, we will be visiting an Archtype comprised entirely of Spell Cards! While the “Bamboo Sword” archtype definitely did not have a strong origin with a grand ‘useless equip’ in Tactical Evolution many moons ago, the archtype is definitely coming into its own […]

Hello everyone, welcome back to another installment of my Casual Deck Strategy articles! This time, instead of focusing on an underused archetype, why don’t we spend some time on some unusual applications of the brand new Mask Change Second and the new Masked HEROs recently released in the new Structure Deck in the OCG! Let’s suit […]

Welcome to another Deck strategy article, but this time I am going to be writing on something a lot more competitive than those covered in my normal Casual Deck Strategy articles. This TCG-premiere archtype has seen many packs go by with many cards of various power levels, each introducing a brand new ‘gimmick’ into the game. […]

Welcome to the next edition of the Casual Deck Strategy articles here on YGOrganization, and yes, the electricity puns do not stop with the title. I’ve wanted to do an article ever since one special Thunder-type monster was revealed, but I just couldn’t get the numbers to work right… until now! Watt card am I […]

Welcome to the first Casual Deck Strategy article on the brand new cards bursting out in the Japanese OCG version of The Duelist Advent! While most of you probably jumped on the awesome new Heroic support, like I did at first, there’s another Anime-derived archetype that got some awesome World Premieres! Of course I’m talking about the Star Seraphs!

New card revealed from Dragons of Legend, Blackwing Support is on the rise!

Welcome to the next installment of the Casual Deck Strategy articles, and this round we have another amazing card from PRIO that helps make a brand new deck even more of a reality! I’m sure you’ve heard of Counter Fairies before, using Bountiful Artemis to draw your way to heaven as you interrupt everything your […]

The Fisborg are eternal, Fish Master Race! We love our Fish (sticks) ! That being said, in all seriousness, following the release of PRIO in the OCG, it is time to begin discussing a few awesome decks that have gotten turbocharged from this amazing archtype-boosting set! Let’s ‘Dive’ right in, all puns intended.

If it came down to a vote, I am positive that a majority would pick WIND as the least impactful or successful Attribute in the current metagame. WATER got their Mermail, FIRE got their Fire Fist and Fire King, EARTH got Madolche (which get Anjelly on the horizon), LIGHT got Agents and Bujin, and DARK […]

Spellcasters have been one of the most supported types from the beginning of the game, due to Yugi running a Spellcaster, Dark Magician, as his ace monster. Also, the type has received 2 themed Structure decks, in tandem with tons of awesome support in Starter Decks. Now after tons of support has piled up, the scene is set […]

As I’m sure most of you know by now, in almost exactly 1 week week we will be seeing the start of the first-ever January Format. And quite frankly, I can speak for most people when I say that a ton of things were switched around that weren’t quite expected. This article will be diving […]

Bobby Pickett said it the best when he wrote the following in 1962: He did the mash, he did the monster mash The monster mash, it was a graveyard smash He did the mash, it caught on in a flash He did the mash, he did the monster mash

Ever since the reveal of the Normal Spell, Dragon Shrine, I’ve always tried to make interesting deck variants combining it with Eclipse Wyvern in order to toolbox out whatever Level 7+ LIGHT or DARK Dragon I want at the low cost of using something to banish Wyvern. There are many ways to abuse this toolbox potential, from Hieratic builds […]

Introducing the archetype that holds a special place in my heart, the Chess Daemons! I’m positive you’ve heard of these little fiends before, I mean, who hasn’t? Introducing the only archetype to include multiple cards without the archetype name in their title, in addition to being one of the handful of archtypes released in the […]
