Hello everybody and welcome into today's episode of the Top of Cut Yugio Podcast. Of course, I am Sunny here with my co-host. Caleb is always. So what is going on, dude?

Nothing much. Just getting ready for Sincra's form this weekend. Ooh. Well, let's before we get too far into my Sinckerel umbrella.

Before we get too far into it, let's say that let's get them quick with a couple of pieces of quick play news. Yes. So first we have next month's OCG promo card. This is the VJump promo comes to the magazine.

It's a generic like water support card. We don't know the effect. We just know his name, which is made in of the Aqua. Oh, it's a retrain of, um, can't think of that old girl's name.

Old old card. Probably a vanilla, right? No. Yeah, she was vanilla.

It's an Aquamade. Aquamade, that's it. I feel like that one should kind of like jump out at you. I couldn't remember if it was them, but then my brain kept going Aquamadore.

I'm like, no, that's a different monster. I think there was an Aquamade. Yeah. But anyway, yeah, we know nothing about the effect.

We just know that it's a four star water monster. We don't even know stats. That's all we know. Shark support.

Ooh, hah. We'll get to that later. Next piece of quick play news is the Yugio Funko Pops have been revealed. These are to celebrate Yugio's 25th anniversary.

So the main generic ones that you can get pretty much anywhere you can buy Funkos supposedly are the Blue Eyes White, a tune, Blue Eyes White Dragon. It's got him coming out of the tune of the. So base. So cool.

My Valentine, Yami Bakura, Silent Swordsman and Pharaoh Atem. He's sitting on the little throne. It's amazing. It's got his little middle-end crown.

Yes. Very cool. If anybody wants to buy one of these for me and send it to me, I will accept this. This is very cool.

Let's see. And then the more exclusive ones. You have the target exclusive, Stardust Dragon, the hot topic exclusive, Blue Eyes Ultimate, and the GameStop exclusive Wing Dragon of Raw. Those are jumbo.

Yeah, these are more expensive, but they are a little bit harder to find and they are bigger. They're exclusive. Mostly, they're bigger. Yeah.

They're like, I think one box of the jumbo ones can fit like four to six of the regular size ones. Yeah, yeah, they're a good bit bigger. Yeah. That'll go for quick play news.

I think it's also pinned on our Twitter page. And it's also in the description below every episode, right? Oh, yeah. OK, so please be sure to do that.

And let's go ahead and get on into some of our main conversation, which today's first main conversation is we're going to talk about some of the reveals from the content creator reveals. So basically what Konami does is right before a big set about to come out, they do like they come out and contact these creators, give them all the information they could possibly need to make a video on whatever Konami wants to make a video on. And then they're given a schedule of when you're supposed to release your episode. Right.

Yesterday, which would be Tuesday as of recording was day one with Kelly Kelly, thanks, King of Games, right, right, right. Where he actually revealed the sword soul archetype, what their TCG names are and their rarities. Right. So we do have some incredibly difficult names to get through here.

So the first card we're going to talk about is Sword Soul of Mo Yi, which is a secret rare. You're going to notice a theme here, folks. Yeah. So the Mo Yi is the level four water one.

Right. It's the main deck one, right? Yeah. She does exactly the same as she did in the ocean.

Like all of all their effects are the exact same. Just names really in rarities. So Mo Yi is a secret. The other one, which was Sword Soul of Taya is called Sword Soul of Taya is either a common or a super.

The main thing that you need to know about this particular strategy is that. So Mo Yi and Taya are normal summons, they're level fours. And when you're normal, some of them, you can act as an effect to get a token on your field. The token is a level four tuner.

Sometimes it's level six. Sometimes it is level six. Or are they all level four? I think depends.

Yeah. I don't exactly know what levels of tuners are, but there's all I guess there's all four and there's level six tuners. But the ones pumped out by Taya and Mo Yi are level four though. OK.

And then you have the Sword Soul strategist, Long Wan, which is a level six fire attribute monster. And he also pumps out a tuner. He's he has a way to special someone's self from his hand. You have to discard another Sword Soul monster or worm or worm.

And he strikes with your hand and then you get a Sword Soul token. OK, they're all level four. OK, cool. So that allows you to hit level eight on the same grows or level.

Yeah, but you can hit eight and 10 right like that. OK, cool. So Long Wan is an ultra rare. So then you have Sword Soul Ospis, Chun.

Chen Jin is either common or super, we're not sure which yet. Yeah, he's the other at level six. Right. Let's see.

Does he pump out a token? He does not pump out a ton of token. OK, yeah, but he's still I think he's still play on. He's still pretty solid.

Oh, yeah. Let's see. After the mittaculation, if a worm battles opponents, mod is not something they actually act to show you both that opponents monster in this card. So he just pops action at monsters.

Right. You don't use these falling effects. Once we're turned to the main phase, quick effects, you can contribute a monster special in this card from your hand. If this card is sent to the graveyard as synchronous.

He really can target one car on the field and I or neither graveyard banish it. So if he gets those, yeah, so if he gets you to sync up to your goal, he gets to target banish, not like which is neat. Yeah, it works. Yeah, let's see.

And then for the synchros, you have the secret rare level eight sword soul, Grandmaster, Chizhao. He's level eight and then the level 10 is sword soul supreme, sovereign, Qing Ying, who is the level 10. OK, so secret, ultra secret, super or common, super or common. And then your primary and then the spell card you want to run is TCG name is sword soul emergence, which is road of our sort of soul.

Pretty much, yeah, I want to source a monster from your deck to your hand. Or if you control a sinker, you can add a worm monster instead. So I guess like if you're running the 10 years, it gives you a little bit of versatility. Yeah.

And then if it's if this card is banished, you can target a sword soul monster worm and you can troll an increase or decrease it's level by one. So like if you banish it, it gives you a little bit of versatility to where you can decrease one level and maybe go into like a virtual world Shenzhen or something along the lines. Well, it only does one. Yeah, so you can target the monster and decrease it's level by one and Shenzhen is level nine.

So if you're something a little six, you can decrease it's level five. I think I've him and his level four tuner and then you can sink or nine to make Shenzhen. Yeah, yeah, you technically good. And then Shenzhen is also a worm.

So there's like incidental. Yeah. And then when and then if you activate another one of these, oh, you can also hit then he automatically banishes when you leave the fields and then you can. Yeah.

Oh, we can also hit levels of sinkers with that too. Yes, you could. Yeah. But I mean, I can't think of any in particular off top of my head outside of literally Black Rose Dragon, but I'm pretty sure there's better level sevens.

You know, there are better level sevens. I just can't think of a single one at the moment. I want to say. OK.

And then of course you also have while he's looking at up, you also have the new ecclesia. Her TCG name is incredibly ecclesia. The virtuous. He has a secret.

Level four spoke as her tuner. You can specially your performance roles were monsters in you. You can only control only special one. I was just taking it yazzy, but yazzy is banned, I think.

So yeah, if the Yang Zing. Yeah. Um, during the main phase, you can this car special money sword, solar, phone, alabas from your hand or deck during the end phase. If you do monster, you're going to turn at this card from the graveyard to your hand.

So she's sword, soul adjacent. No, he's not banned. I know one of the young Zing is banned. Dang long first of the young Zing.

Okay. Yeah. You got a Z is seven. Yeah.

Isn't a boxy of seven too? Boxy is eight. Okay. Yeah.

So you can just say boxy like inherently. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. You can also hit. Yeah. You can also hit yazzy.

Right. Yes. Um, so I say cliche is a secret. Um, all the rest of the spells and traps are common.

You know, we're looking at sword, soul, sacred summit, sword, soul, blackout and sort, sort, soul assessment. I have a feeling like one of them will probably be a super rare, but like maybe I wouldn't be honest. It really doesn't matter. I mean, at this point, I wouldn't be shocked if literally every single car in that entire archetype is full.

Yeah. Yeah, I could see it happening. Uh, I'd say what though, even at its high rarity, I think this deck's going to be very good. If personally, probably not right out the gate immediately, but that's mostly due to people not really what's wrong looking for.

I don't think the deck can necessarily compete with dry, strong, driver, gate, yeah, but once those are out of the way, it's going to, it's going to absolutely curb stomp everything that's way. Um, a lot of people will flu under ease might be up there as one of the better decks coming out and it is. But personally, I view it as a little bit more format dependent. Oh, absolutely.

It's because it, it's very weak to a lot of very common hand traps right now. Yeah. Like normal summon, Rabina, uh, just is, is your combo start is immediately shut down and ended by effect, valor, infinite permanence, ash blossom, bro, stoker, the deck hurts. There's a lot of things that hurt that deck.

And if you don't have the follow through and the extender, it's really easy to shut the flu under ease deck down, in my opinion. Yeah. And I know that people's first thought is just run cross that doesn't get her, but the issue you run into is that you have, well, first off, what if your opponent has two? It's not only that, but especially in a format where you're going into it, where your opponents are going to be playing tri brigade, rank.

It's still a deck that some people are playing for some reason. The Yang Zing, I mean, not Yang Zing, um, sort soul. Yeah. Sort soul and tri brigade are each going to run like 14 hand traps.

Like you're going to run into a dozen to 15 hand traps in each of those decks. So the idea that your opponent would only have one hand trap is kind of rough, but people say run cross out, right? But it's not even an issue of people having more than one hand trap. It's an issue of that deck is very banished focused and well, a deck that banishes a lot.

What's the first thing you run? Oh, the shifter. Right. The deck runs the shifter, which means you cannot run what?

A lot of things, certainly not hand traps. Certain hand traps, you just can't run like a fact. Really? You can't run a fact.

Yeah. Um, I think Ash Blossom, you can still run no problem. Yeah, because Ash Blossom lets you just as you have to discard this card doesn't seem to the graveyard, but a good chunk of hand traps, say send them to the graveyard. Yep.

Yeah. So most hand traps like, like not most, but there's quite a few that are very rough. I don't think it goes over her. That by the way, but I mean, they remove something off field and I guess they can't tribute, which is wrong.

Yeah. But that was the idea is, you know, they can't tribute it, but it was just the first thing I came to mind. Look at that. Now thinking about it.

Anyway, we're no experts though. We, I'll be honest, we haven't read all the cards in depth. They haven't done the flu boundaries release yet. So we're going to have to take some time to go through the cards really and like go through them a little bit better than our initial read through.

Yeah. Like, cause I'm going off what the OCG text was back when they were first announced, which is going to be completely different, probably from the TCG text. Right. Um, particularly we'll get the problem solving card text, which gives a lot more information on specifically how it works against timing, how, you know, is this quick effect is an amount to be quick effect, stuff like that.

And sometimes something just gets like lost in translation here too. So yeah, so moving on day two, we just, um, just a whole bunch of old archetype upgrades. Yeah. Um, so let's start with, uh, actually, let's just start with the two new desk via cards.

Oh, we have a masquerade at the blazing dragon. Right. Um, he's the level eight. That's a fusion of a desk via monster and then a light or dark.

He's an ultra and then add a little bit of a desk via, uh, who is the, uh, level eight main deck fairy. Um, probably either common or super. Yeah. Yeah.

So we have the common super, uh, then we have a mock you know, a room and force for all you mock you know, players. Yeah. This card's really interesting. So I'm, I do want to read through some of these, because these guys are like single outs.

Yeah. I'm going to read through a couple of these effects while we have them here. So this card can't be known. I know we've already done this before, but I'm just going to reiterate.

Especially with mocking a room force. Yeah. So it's 4600 attack for 100 defense, which means it's top five main deck monsters in the game in terms of attack. Um, and defense just about.

Can I be normal? So understand must be special something from your graveyard by banishing machine monsters from your graveyard, which totals levels equals 12 or more. When your opponent activates a card or effect during the battle phase, quick effect, you can pay half your life points negate that activation. And if you do have your opponent's life points, if this card is destroyed by battle or card effect, you can special it up to three of your banished machina monsters whose total levels equal 12 or less.

You can only use each of the effects of machina room force once per turn. So you can only use each effect once per turn. Yeah. Same thing.

So if you're going in for gaming, you summon this guy, it's game because if they try to do something in the battle phase and try to do something a little funky, they lose, they lose, they lose. Yeah, they lose half their life points and he will too, but more importantly, they lose half their life points. Um, that's. Well, considering he has a four thousand attack that can literally end the game.

Exactly. So, um, and he's an ultra, another ultra is evil twins. It's trouble sunny. Uh, this card also will well, we'll get into that later.

Yeah. Like I said, it is a, it is also an ultra two monster. It's fact, it is materials, it's two monsters, including an evil twin monster. Right.

So two plus including. Yeah. It's a link for yeah. Quick effect trip this card, summon up to one kiss a kill monster and up to one little monster from your graveyard.

You can banish this card from the graveyard and send in and send one evil twin monster from your hand deck or face up on the field to the graveyard. So one card on the field to the graveyard. It does not target. Yeah.

This is, this is a very good card for the humans. I can only use each effect once per turn. Also, it's three three hundred attack, thirty three hundred attack. That's beefy.

Yeah, it's going to be a very good card. Oh, absolutely. Um, the next one I do want to talk about is destiny here destroy Phoenix and Forcer is a level eight dark fusion monster. It's, it's the boy.

Everyone's been talking about. Yeah. He is a secret. Yeah.

He is a secret rare one level six or higher hero monster when destiny or monster. Um, monsters, your opponent controls lose two hundred attack for each hero card in your graveyard. You can only use each of the following effects of destiny. Her own to store Phoenix and Forcer once return.

Quick effect. You can destroy both one card, you control and one card on the field. If this card is destroyed by battle or card effect, you can act as effect, special one destiny or monster from your graveyard during the standby phase of the next turn. So basically it gives you a quick effect pop that you can use every single turn.

Because you can just keep special on him back from his graveyard with his own effect. Yep. He's not particularly big because he's only 2,500. Yeah, but you can just summon him and just let him sit there, negating things.

Yeah, pop negate, pop negate. Um, the next one is Zorroa, the majestic conflagorate calamity. Well, no, I think he doesn't actually have any negates, but you know, just yeah, still just constantly getting stuff pop that your opponent like the only way to stop Phoenix and Forcer is absolutely banishing. Did he Christ, stop some?

He Christ, stop some. Anyway, so Zorroa, the majestic conflagorate calamity, it is a level eight synchro, requires a spellcaster, two hundred and one or more non-tunar monsters. It says secret rare one here, but I really, the text on a secret air versus the text on this card, it looks more like a rare to me. I think it's because it's on a synchro.

Probably. Anyway, if this card is synchro, you can equip him a justice monster from your actually act to this card just straight. All right, nice. You know, your opponent cannot activate the effects of monsters with the same card type, fusion, synchro, exceed or link as a majestic monster card in your spell and trap card zone.

So just off that effect, if you know what deck your opponent is on, they only perform one type of summon, you make this guy and equip that type of card because magistus have a card, actually a monster for every single summoning type. Right. So you equip like a synchro if your opponent is on source zone, they can't do their synchro summons. Yeah, or they're in Triargape, you equip an, you equip like Artemis, magistus, moon maiden.

Right, they're link monster. They can't shut off or vault until they out it. Right. And they also can't make their, and that also makes sure I really can't make their number one out to stuff.

Yeah, because it got links on it. Just for example, I mean, they can still like do exceed plays then unless you've somehow also equipped one of the exceeds. But here's the thing, because it doesn't have you equipped to him, it just has to be in your spell and trap cards zone for any reason. Right.

Which is really cool. And really it's kind of cool. Yeah. And that's kind of what the whole magistus deck is all about.

So continue his effects. He's got more. He's got more. If this card is in your graveyard, he can target him in justice card, you control, destroy it, and then smash some in this card.

Okay. Yep. And what I really like is he's like, he's like a dude who's like exorbed. What a dude.

Yeah. He's just some dude who's exorbed fire king high avatar, go runics. So he's got like his wings in the crown thing he had. Right.

Right. Super cool looking. Let's see. And then lastly, we have Borlod Riot Dragon and his ritual spell card Heavy Interlock.

So Borlod Riot is an ultra dragon ritual monster. He's dark like all the other Bora ones. You can only you hear something this card with heavy interlock when you're opponent, special monster quick effects and gate to special. And if you do destroy the monsters and destroy this card or one rocket monster, you control.

Very good. The only issue is that he's a ritual monster. This gives this means it's another toy for a dragon. For no, not for dragon link for dry.

I guess it's kind of sub optimal to summon him. It absolutely is. There's better things to summon, but it does give them making some infinite gate with what you call it. Yeah, but but it gives them something to fall back on.

Should that ever get banned that they still have a plate to make? Yeah, I guess that's true. Granting only gives you one to gate. It's crushing a great party.

You can start a Boral rocket monster and a great card. Show one card you control in your hand if you do add a target to your hand. Oh, so you can destroy card that you control at him back and then just re-smart something again. Yeah, using a medium and strike on.

So it is infinite gates, but it's very, very slow and way more resource intensive. It's much worse than what they can do. Overall, it's a good card if you can ritual summon it. Yeah, if you can summon, it's great.

But it's a ritual card and only there's only one deck that can do proper ritual summoning right now. Oh boy. That's really about it for now. We were recording on Wednesdays and only have days one and two that all that information is coming out today.

There'll be more information tomorrow and Friday, I believe. Right, right. Yeah, we'll get more information. I'm sure on flew under ease and.

And it probably the new feature support. Oh, yeah, you're probably right. Actually, it probably will be the feature. Which did get leaked, but I'm, but I'm waiting for the official release for it.

You know, probably make my opinion on it. Yeah. The only other person that I want to talk about before we sneak out of here, we do have some spoilers for the Starlight Rares for the set. So if you don't want to know what the Starlight Rares are until it's like 100% confirmed day of then, you know, well, we do know one of them has been confirmed by Konami.

Yes, which I say we start with that one. I say confirmed by Konami, actually, it's not actually Konami, but it's a site that puts a Konami sticker on their stuff. Anyway, yeah. So we do for sure know, uh, incredible, ecclesiastical, the virtuous starlight.

Yeah. The one we know also for sure is Stratos is a starlight. Yep. That is the retro starlight, which is cool.

Yes. That is the legacy starlight that we get. Uh, it from the leaks we have, it appears that the evil twins, sunny, sunny, sunny, no. Yeah, it's evil twins.

Evil twins, sunny. Yeah. The evil twins, uh, link four is also going to be a starlight, which I suspected as much. Do to literally every other one also being a starlight just about.

Yeah. Uh, we have the flu wanderees level 10 water, uh, bird, whatever, the big water. Yeah. Yeah.

That's, yeah. If it's a water one, I think that's something in snow. I thought that. Okay.

That's not in pen flu wandere something and snow, like the snow owl one. That's, that's the one I can read the name. Um, and then the level eight, um, sort. So yeah, uh, yeah, the secret lung fat lung chung or something like that.

Like what I don't remember. I already exited that tab. Yeah. Uh, we are, we just read it.

The hotdog and going out. I don't remember. Uh, yeah. Uh, cheese, yow.

Cheese, yeah. Yeah. That one. So that would be the other one.

And then, uh, I do also want to take a moment to talk about the, we did have one new card that got released. It's from the dualist pack for make us tsunami. So this is a base form of Nash's new ace monster. Um, who's a shark?

We don't miss shark or original castle. Okay. The name of the dualist pack, by the way, is dualists of the abyss. Yeah.

Uh, this new card is named a fill asylum. Hethnite or a national for short. Yeah. Or a national for short rank five.

One is water, aqua, exceed monster materials to level five monsters. You can only use this cards to effect once per turn. One, it cannot be controlled by battle if a number monster is on the field. Mm hmm.

Uh, two. So this is the once per turn effect during the main phase, quick effects. You can detach two materials from this card, take a number, a number exceed monster that has a number between one and one and one and seven in the same from your extra deck and attach it to this card as material. Then you can attach one of their face up monster on the field to this card as material.

Right. Because it doesn't destroy it. It doesn't, you know, it doesn't even send to the graveyard. It just attaches material.

Right. I mean, it's really interesting. I don't get the one, no infinitely replenishes itself. Not not definitely.

You're limited by the number of number of number monsters on your extra deck, but who who have one to one to one, seven. So it's supposed to be a play on chaos, shark drink, vice and the sea, whatever. The shark drink, vice and all that. Well, it was shark drink and then see whatever is number was shark drink, vice.

Yeah. Yeah. This is kind of a spin off. Yeah.

Well, it was cool. Yeah. I mean, it's a very cool looking card. I just don't know that it'll actually see any play, even in shark decks.

I mean, I mean, they would probably play it if we also most likely weren't getting stealth cragan in there too. Yeah, probably because self cragan's so busted. I do want to take a moment to thank our sponsor, ETB Games from Alexander, Louisiana. They are a huge, huge help to us here at the podcast.

We do do monthly UDO days every month on Saturday. And now that they're registered, it's yes, we do get OTS pack for entering on those UDO days. So if you're anywhere near the Louisiana area, I really recommend you coming and checking it out. It's really not a bad drive from basically anywhere.

So if you can make it, I do recommend checking it out. And if you cannot make it, I, they have a link in the description below to get to their website. It has ETB Games.com where you can go on and order everything you need to play all the card games you love, as well as all of the tabletop games, right? D&D, Pathfinder, etc.

Warhammer, whatever. Yeah. They're, they're really are a wonderful resource to get into basically whatever you need to get into. So thank you again to ETB Games and please check them out.

So speaking of card shops and shopping and talking about things like that, I do want to take also a minute to show that I want to talk about the product release calendar. So back at the end of September, we had the 2021 Tenement Chain Battles, which released and then October here about a week ago, we had the Cyber Strike Structure Deck that came out, which had the impermery brand. Yep, really nice. Yes.

Overall, cool deck. I really like the design. I really like the strategy of the deck employees. It's just not very good.

It's not particularly good, but it's fun. Right. Right. It's best use if you're going into if you're going into a terminal with your friends and you're all just using structured X.

Right. So do be sure to check that out. We do have this weekend releasing on October 28th. That will be legendary dual sync roast storm.

So it doesn't release until the 28th, which is next week, next Thursday. But I think you can do pre releases and things of that sort this weekend at your local OTSs. Yep. So your local OTSs check with them.

They might be doing a pre-release tournament or something of the sort. Yeah, or bare minimum letting you like by the product early. Yeah. So be sure to check with your local OTSs and check that out.

And then in November, just in the coming weeks on November, the fourth is when Bursa Destiny releases. That's just one week after synchrostorm. Exactly one week. It's right.

It's rough. So I know that some places are doing their case tournaments for Bursa Destiny Halloween weekend. So if that's something that you're going to be looking at, again, check with your local OTS, see when they're doing the early product release for that. And then you have Max Gold Eldorado just a week and a half later on November 18th.

Max Gold Eldorado should be another large shit with a lot of reprints. Oh, my wallet hurts. Yeah, it really is a lot to take in. And then if you look at it just on December the 2nd, another two weeks later, you have Brothers of Legend releasing and we still have any information on Eldorado or Brothers of Legend.

OK, we have we have more information about Brothers of Legend than we have for Eldorado. Yeah, we don't know anything for Eldorado other than there's going to be an Eldorado and it will have house drag made in Mask of Marina. And I'm a unicorn. And I'm a unicorn.

Altar, Mask of Marina. Not house drag made, Chamber of Dragon. Yeah, Chamber. Yeah, regular part.

Chamber drag. And then Altar, Nightmare Unicorn, Altar, I can ask for you. Super cool. Brothers of Legend, we know it'll have the Kreebros in it.

And that's about it. The Kreebros in it will have Forbidden Droplet. And Forbidden Droplet and Kreebablon. Right.

So and some other generic Kreebos support, which is why Kreeborns are kind of expensive right now. Yeah, it's worth it's worth being aware of for sure. But the next time, good. So don't don't be too worried about the Kreebos stuff coming and then just I mean, and impacting the meta.

I mean, it's a rank one spam. You know what that means, right? Oh, they can just make the layerless cards and go to Zeus and go into a big stack Zeus Zeus turbo. Actually, yeah, they could very easily make a six stack Zeus with one card.

I mean, they could technically do it. Yeah. I mean, but it's a six stack Zeus good enough. I mean, it's pretty good.

It's pretty good. Yeah. So and, you know, depending on what cards in their hand, I could roll. No, they don't have, they wouldn't have access.

No, if they may, if they could pump out two of the layerless monsters, they could also run a layerless bird. Bird call. Not bird call bird sanctuary. Oh, yeah.

And make like a 12 stack Zeus. So just to stupid, just to be clear, the next set releasing on October the 28th is legendary dualistic storm. Now out of that set, what you have to look forward to is Baron of stuff, which is renamed Baron of Flair. For some reason.

Yeah. Baron of Flair, then you have all of the speed word stuff and most notably, probably, in my opinion, besides the Baron, Baron of Flair is probably actually the most notable, but past that you have the, um, the all the layerless stuff. Yeah. Particularly the new layerless monsters.

Yeah. Barrel Canary on some blue Robin and I know when it's something night and gal, I think. Oh, not know. It's not.

I don't, I don't remember off top. I had, yeah. But the two big ones are bell canary and on some blue Robin. Yeah.

Which are both stupid, good. Yeah. They're great cards. Absolutely.

So yeah. So on some blue Robin being an ultra, but this is also where you can get little list bird call. Yes. And I'm going to be honest with you.

I think that the layerless stuff is going to be best off in a tri-brage engine. Oh, definitely. Because, um, man, layerless tri-brage is such a good day. Particularly considering that, um, one of the layerless just search a, just search as a level one winged beast.

Guess who's a level one winged beast? And then the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the tripod guy, nervel. Yeah. It's so literally if you don't open your tri-brage engine, just playing through your normal layerless combo will give you access to your tri-brage engine.

Right. And then if you don't open your layerless engine, that doesn't matter because you're still playing tri-brage. Yeah. Yeah.

You can just, you can just do tri-brage stuff or technically your tri-brage engine can't access your layerless engine because if you link off your shurag or your shurag leaves the field, you can use him to search out your layerless engine and put your entire layerless engine online. Oh, yeah. I know, I know that it's definitely a lot you can do there. Um, like I said, Bird Call is absolutely one of the most broken search cards in the game at this point.

Yeah. Absolutely. It's so good. So here's why.

So when you activate it, you either rota or full jibberial, a layerless monster, pick one, and then you special a different, a different, a layerless monster with a different name from your hand. And that's really, really good. As a separate effect. So here's the thing, one of the layerless state, and when it's special from your hand, you can special summon a layerless monster from your hand or graveyard.

Right. So if you have, it's a cobalt sparrow, you have a coal sparrow in hand, especially on itself, if you don't have any monsters, but but a separate line is when this card is, if this card is special, some and, well, some sort of a layerless. Right. So you can fully spare you all the one that searches special that one, special that one out search.

And in one card, you've plus two. And then if you have a sapphire on that search, you search out a sapphire swallow and then because you control a wing of beast, you just summon a sapphire swallow. You have to have another level one wing to use your hand to do that. But yeah, but I mean, you run like eight of them.

So hold on. So, so you don't, so with that search, though, you don't search the cobalt sparrow and say you search a nerve all right. You overlay into crystal starling, recital starling, detach one for its effects, search for the cobalt sparrow, cobalt sparrow, special summons out itself and nervous. Yeah.

It really is so good. That honestly might just be the best techniques format. Yeah. Like I said, on some blue Robin is a ultra, the other new one whose name escapes us as an ultra bird calls an ultra.

Yeah. Um, it really is like spectacular. Yeah, but on, but Bail canaries are rare. Right.

She's one of the, she's one of the more powerful literalists. Thankfully, I mean her, I don't know why they're the one who I'm not a super. Probably to make, give the decks an actual shiny main deck monsters because it doesn't have hair. Well, so I said, why not make a super?

I guess. It is what it is. Unfortunately, I didn't see bird strike in there, which is unfortunate. To be fair, the people that were opening synchro swarm on the videos were pulling like six ultras in a box.

Yeah. So it might not, that means it'd be that bad. Like, I'm all disappointed we didn't get a bird strike yet. Um, so what was bird strike is that if you control a little response, just make it all your puns sponsors.

Yeah. And we also didn't get the feather card that if you control wing and be struggling guards. Yeah. Yeah.

That would be nice to get. Yeah. Which I don't know. I think that might be like a battles of chaos card or maybe brothers of the legend.

Yeah. Well, yeah, because like it was for the OCG, I think that was in a sight set. So we should probably get that brother's legend. I thought we were going to get it in synchro swarm because like they got it in their version, they got it in their version of synchro storm.

Did they really? Yeah. But, you know, whatever, that's whatever. Yep.

So I think the thing to think to think to get though out of this is the lerilics stuff and one like one or just have one or two barons for yeah, or you know, if you decide you want to play, um, speedroids, which is a good deck. It's a fun deck. I wouldn't call it good. I mean, I wouldn't call it great.

It's it's a day. It's playable now. Yeah, it's absolutely playable, especially because the roulette wheel. Right.

The roulette will fix the good chunk of the issues ahead. Yeah. Um, as far as burst of destiny, I'm going to try to pick up as much of the sword soul stuff as I can that I can pick up for a decent price. Um, pass that.

It'll depend on if I get my barons, but yeah, pass the sword soul stuff. I am also going to be looking to pick up. I'll pick up the flu undery stuff if it's not insane, rare. I mean, some of it's going to be secret and stuff, but yeah, only because like right now we know of one secret one ultra.

Right. So that's it. Yeah. You know, I'll pick it up depending on the rarities and stuff, but we'll just have to wait and see on that.

Oh, yeah. I mean, like bare minimum, uh, the flu undery's will give you something fun to play, particularly if, uh, uh, Linda Tarbo becomes a big issue. Well, and the other thing about flu undery's is that it's to me, it's really just a huge medical. I don't think it'll actually be quote unquote, the best deck in the same way that I don't think that I think it's like it's a very similar deck to my Dolce.

It's very reliant on the D shifter. It's very reliant on being stunned and floodgady, which I'm not saying it's a bad strategy. It's a good strategy. It's a good, you know, it's a good deck and things like that.

And that's some wins. Yeah, definitely. Um, but yeah, it's, I don't know. I just, I don't know what the deck, I'm not too confident in it, but I mean, I think it can just macro your opponent anytime is really good.

Trivia, your points monsters and rise. I mean, it's good. Um, Maxwell, El Dorado, I'm not going to be looking for here. I might pick up chambers just to have them.

Yeah. I mean, the, I mean, because if you're having an iron unicorn, if you just want that is on a rare chance, I'm getting it for the iPad. I mean, I'm not going to be looking for a master. I really like the all dark.

Yeah. That's my big reason for getting it right now. Cause like I said, all we know is those three cars. Yeah.

Oh, I'll be out of budget, the legendary one card. I'm looking for a forbidden droplet. I might try to, I might try to dump my secrets for like, because I think like 160 right now and just go and dump them now and pick up the. Probably an ultra, I think, maybe.

No, I think it definitely reprinted as a secret. Ah, fair enough. Another secret printing. Yeah.

Yeah. Ooh, maybe a parallel secret this time. Yeah. I mean, they're 150 right now.

So. Oh, hold on. You know what would be absolutely chaotic economy. What printing it as a common?

Uh, no shot. No shot. There is no shot at that. But if they did, that would be absolute chaos.

I'm down along the lines of a ratting Alastair, the invoker into a Gemini monster. That'll never get old. So we do have the next, um, the next major, uh, the next major, a bit of a news is they have announced a new remote dual YCS. They will take it.

Yeah. Yeah. It will be taking place December 11th and 12th. So mark that weekend off on your calendars.

Um, it's interesting. Uh, I'm excited. I'm really excited about this. Oh, yeah.

Uh, I mean, you, I mean, you under the previous one, didn't you? I did. Yeah. Was it fun?

Um, I had a good time. Uh, I get to enter. Or I only entered the main event for a couple of days because I had like, or for a couple of rounds because I had actual family coming in town. Yeah.

But I had fun when I played. Yeah. So I, I won a side event, which is cool. That, that, yeah.

Oh, yeah. I mean, overall, yeah, my overall, it's, it's definitely fun. Um, it's the best we got right. Right now at the moment, I mean, until later.

Yeah. You want to tell them? Um, yeah, sure. We can go ahead and jump on into it.

So we got an update from Konami saying that, um, the best, the U. TCG is all about dueling and the best way to do it is to compete in events. Players of all ages and skill levels can compete together in tournaments to make new friends, see new cards and show their best strategies. There's no better way to experience the U.

Get a training card game than to compete in events with your friends. Very events for every type of duelist, blah, blah, blah, blah, from small tournaments at your local store to massive international events where the top those go around the world to play for big prizes. No matter what type of event you're playing, you'll always get prizes for taking part. Nobody goes home empty handed.

Um, well, we have an announcement. That's actually what am I doing? That is not the correct announcement. Um, so here we go.

We got an update from Konami saying the road to the 2022 U. TCG world championship begins this November with regional qualifiers and OTS championships. Whoo. So this is an update from Konami.

They have a picture of their in their tweet of the flu wandaries cards on a world championship qualifier, regional 2022 play mat, as well as a nice purple regional world championship qualifier deck box. Very nice. So what it is is essentially this is the return of regional play. Um, they haven't made it super clear if it is a regional remote duel events or if it's live in person events, but I'm thinking that it should be live in person events.
