This is too quick of a movement towards defederation. Except in the most extreme of circumstances, it should be up to individual users whether they want to engage with other communities, and users can always block communities they find objectionable. It is not in the best interest of users to treat them as being incapable of making their own reasoned decisions about this kind of thing.
Fortunately, thanks to the wonders of the fediverse, I can just make a new account on a different instance and start engaging with Lemmy that way. Anyone have any recommendations on alternatives to lemmy.world?
Runick Muskets is a deck that has been kicking around for a while - here's my take on it. Morganite is absolutely crazy in this deck. The extra draws are relevant, hand traps aren't missed too much because you have the Musket cards/Runick Fountain, and the Muskets let you get value off the Morganite right away (which is otherwise one of the card's biggest weaknesses). A few notes: - Muckraker goes crazy in this list. You generate so much value that the pitch for cost to resummon a Musket feels like nothing. The protection is useful too. - A lot of lists don't run Magical Musket Wild, but I was always happy to have him, especially in the grindier matchups. Recycling a Max or three of your interrupts can win some games on the spot. - Dweller comes up surprisingly often, as does Chaos Angel.

Thanks for the kind words! It hasn't been much work at all - I'm having lots of fun with it. And I've been really pleased with the level of engagement. The community is basically just a place for me to post yugioh stuff I think is cool, and occasionally people will stop by to check it out or share something that they think is cool.
I'll try to keep on top of YCS results and I've got a few ideas for fun decklists.
Hi everyone! Been having lots of fun getting this space up and running, and I'm glad to see people stopping by. I figured this was a good time to check in with you all and see how I can improve your experience. Is there any kind of content you'd like to see more of? Anything else I can do to make this community better? Feel free to drop a comment or shoot me a message!

It's nothing special, but I love my Immortal Phoenix Gearfried reprint that I got out of Amazing Defenders. The card is only worth one cent, but fire warrior jank is my favorite deck on MD/simulators, and I'm so happy to own my favorite card in paper.

Cute pic! Didn't know we had an MD community
Does anyone have a good decklist and/or guide for R-Ace post DUNE? I want to try and brew some jank with them, but I need to know how the deck works normally first.
Deck I've been tinkering with on Omega lately. Fire warrior is like my favorite theme of monster, so my eyes turned into little dollar signs when I saw that Riseheart is a fire warrior. This is a classic example of making a good deck (Adventure Kashtira) worse by playing junk in it. But a little thing like "common sense" or "good deckbuilding" is not enough to keep me from making Isolde, using her effect to get out Renaud, making Sprind, and dumping Nimble Angler.

A really fascinating and facially powerful card. There are very few decks in the format right now that do not want to be making 2 monsters from the ED. Now if you go second, you have something to go into if your starter gets impermed or you brick. It also turns off the opponent's zeus or baronne, which is very funny.

Hard to tell how good this card is, but I know this: it won't stop Kash from locking your pend zones! Seriously is there any way for pend to be viable while Kash is a thing?

I tend to agree with the idea that MD has sort of cut itself off at the knees by pursuing its weird unique banlist and cardpool. If MD had committed to being "the OCG simulator," then the Bo1 format would be less offputting, Maxx C's continued presence would be less of a war crime, and TCG players would have a way to get hyped about cards coming down the pipeline that they'll eventually be able to play in paper
I think MD's generous monetization model and its delayed card releases reflect a perspective of fear on the part of Konami that MD, if given all the current cards, would make it so nobody played or bought paper anymore. I think that's just not true. There are several very good free online simulators that let people play every yugioh card entirely for free, and paper continues to thrive.
Tl;dr give MD access to all OCG cards in real time. Also where tf is my Edison event

Zero percent chance this isn't a cover to launch something more predatory for monetization reasons.

I didn't realize that the MD WCS had its own special format. The idea of teams and shared cards seems super interesting - can't wait to tune in.

AGOV can't possibly get more based! (clueless) These all look amazing. Yusei vs. Bruno is one of my all time favorite duels, and I'm stoked to see support for this archetype. Also the lvl 1 tuner is a fire so you can search it with the new Snake Eye monster that adds a lvl 1 fire to hand. No idea why you'd want to do that, but the option is there!

I don't have fun at all - when I work out just to "work out," anyway. Then I have to think about it sort of like physical medicine. I do it cause it's good for me.
But if I can find a way to get the heart pumping that's primarily about doing an activity, with fitness just being secondary, I have a lot more fun. I recently got into boxing for fitness because kneee trouble was making high-impact cardio painful. Love it. Training becomes something to look forward to because boxing is fun rather than metaphorical castor oil that I swallow down because I need to.

The amount of generic pyro support in AGOV slaps. I may buy a couple boxes just because I think the set has cool stuff and not for resale

Are these the ones with staples in them? I'd guess maybe something meta-ish that still needs more product to be totally competitive. Maybe like Tri-Brigade and Icejade?

This looks crazy - send ANY CARD from hand to reborn a fire monster. Then after you go through your combo, add your stuff back to deck and draw a card. The first effect isn't even OPT. AGOV continues to ball out so hard
Someone qualified with Exosisters???? Waifu deck players are just built different

AGOV is looking cooler and cooler. The boss monster for these guys has a unique form of removal - it can turn an opponent's monster into a continuous spell/trap.

Hard to rate this kind of card, but it does let you send any fiend or beast to grave. Maybe there are some goofy Tri-Brigade builds that could splash some of the Illusion stuff?

This is like a whole thing with people looking for more environmentally friendly ways to ship stuff - tho rn it looks more like a hobby for rich people hauling their bougie wine and chocolate or whatever. I for one think that having sailing ships come back with modern features would be cool!
And the Rikka player ended up winning the whole thing! Kash is still the best deck by the numbers, though. Interesting to see so much representation from DLink.

Babe wake up, new annoying thing to do with Powertool Braver just dropped Edit: jk, apparently Braver equips simultaneously, so this doesn't work with it. Still an interesting card tho

RIF is still working for me, at least for now. Dreading the moment when it stops. RIF has legit been a part of my life for like 3 years.

Nitter's not working for me, either. Just returns no results when I run a search.
Whenever I play against someone who uses the Dragonmaid/Ash/Galatea mate with the Mayakashi/Raye/Ecclesia profile portrait, I always know I'm in for a bad time, and have reasonable grounds to suspect the person is a degen waifu deck enjoyer.

A few days late, but the increasingly popular Edison Format just saw another successful tournament in Deck Devastators 4. An extremely cool and diverse topcut - I was especially excited to see Flamvell get a pretty impressive result at 5th place. Edison really is just so fun. It makes me wish I lived near an LGS so I could go play in paper, and that there was a bit more simulator support (DB is great but can be tough to use).
Shocked to see this is still at 3 bucks - I haven't heard of anyone making decent use of the effect. I personally will be brewing with this using Magical Musket when it comes to Master Duel.

Hello! I'm not a big branded guy, so I can't say for certain whether better guides than this exist. But MasterDuelMeta recently put out a branded/bystial guide that discusses different combos, tech options, and decklists. Here it is: https://www.masterduelmeta.com/articles/guides/branded-bystial-vector#whats-new.
Hope this is along the lines of what you were looking for!

I love Lemmy, but as others have already said, the vast majority of these signups are likely bots. Pretty spooky.

Another thought: making a community can also be a nice structured incentive to check in on your hobby regularly. I like looking for videos or articles to link to for my yugioh community even though there's not many people subscribed - it gives me an opportunity to interact with and think about the game in different ways than I normally do.
