bro where's ritual beasts

Chimera is probably underrated because piloting it is difficult, yes. Also excited how Fire Kings would cook after new support.

About Fiendsmith in Snakes, you missed the point in my opinion. They directly replace the Kash package, and potentially "One for One" (was in the finals useless on Leblanc's hand) and Jet in order to keep the exact same ratio of Engine/Nonengine, then they offer 3 alternatives: - Early Apo (just like Kash and Draccosak) without using your normal summon or requiring Diabelstar, then you perform your normal combo - Early Ceasar in case you have Crossout in hand to safely perform your normal combo, while having protection from Nib and a powerful interruption - In case of brick, make Beatrice and get your full Snake Eye combo instead of an IP (into SP) pass, or Apollo pass, or Fenrir pass that would otherwise be your options. On top of that, the engine can infinitely grind by shuffling the extra deck monsters, so at the cost of 1 extra deck slot you can also have Irae as an omni negate (imo this is better than Caesar in snakes since it's untargetable and offers removal similar to Promethean) making your board extremely hard to crack. TTTalent take Caesar cooks IP and Promethean for example.

Tenpai can play Fiendsmiths as well. They offer removal/protection, don't clash by taking the normal summon, allow plays for Chaos Angel (chundra + fiendsmith) and even unbrick the deck the same way by Beatrice + Sequentia going for Promethean. My favorite (although extremely gimmick) is using the new Tenpai trap + 1 Rollback instead of the "Heatwave" bs or Necrovalley wombo combo, Seals + Beatrice can turn skip both opponent's MP1 and MP2

Yubel would be better without the Link 2 making Fiendsmiths accessible to every deck. While it makes every engine float to each other (the only way for Unchained/Sacred Beast bodies to reach Yubel is either through Beatrice or Summon Sorc), Caesar can be a huge pain to deal with, same with Irae. So hot take, Yubel is at its best currently (Phantom legal) and requires a Snake hit to be tier 1 post-info. With a Snake hard hit (like banning Flam) + Closed Sky, it has the potential to replace Snakes as the dominant deck of the format.

@@togder it didn’t fit the top 16 decks for me. Reason: 1. Most people that play it do not not how to bring out their full power. 2. It’s great vs snake eyes, has a really bad time vs rogue. 3. You are free to play it but crows, bystials etc make it a rough time game 2,3 post side. Based on what we saw even on feature and back up feature, that deck gets your hopes up game 1, and becomes a struggle 2,3. 4. Is it the deck? Or the player? I respect the player and I want to see it do well. I think for a playoff deck, it will be a solid choice because I doubt the people going in there will b deferring from Snake eyes.

Gimmick Puppet might be a deck to watch out for.

Question, is “Double Iris Magician”, an applicable material for “Soul of the Supreme Celestial King”, to use for the summoning of Z-arc. I was under the impression it was (I even had judges at my locals confirm it was a correct material) but on master duel it’s not, so what is the correct answer

Wth Double iris magician doesn't have 2500 atk... of course its not an applicable (it also isn’t a dragon for zarc lmao). But the conditional effect should still work if you have a banished double iris, ie zarc wouldn’t be negated.

On a serious note i hope it does NOT come out before 1 (but even better 2) banlists because it will prolong the Snake Tier 0 meta. Fiendsmith as an engine is already tier 0, it would just have a tier 0 deck as home. However I fear this is great cash-in opportunity, and bumping Closed Sky to Secret Rare (it would be ridiculous to make it exclusive QCSR) will make it reach SP level of price-tag

Gimmick puppet for the win

Well, you won’t tell because you would be under an NDA scenario. So, the secrecy is expected.

“Card advantage” will only be used if it can generate actually card advantage. If we talking burying the opponent in card advantage like sheer number or hand rip, like dark world or resolving ostinato sure end with a +7. Positional advantage, one card combo and tempo seems relevant for modern yugioh.
