Top 10 Best Cards with Raigeki-Like Effects in Yugioh

Ойындар

The ability to destroy all monsters your opponent controls is an extremely powerful effect that more often than not wins games on its own - Either by turning the tide of a duel by clearing the field of all of your opponent’s boss monsters, or by getting rid of your opponent’s last lines of defense and ending the game more quickly - And is the reason why Raigeki spent so much time on the Forbidden and Limited List.
Even in the modern era, wiping your opponent’s monsters off of the field is a premium effect and in this video we’re going to focus on the best cards with the ability to destroy all monsters your opponent controls.

    Fun fact to those who haven't kept up with the anime. In Yugioh VRains, which began around 2018-2019, the main villain of the first season is hyped up to have an amazingly powerul card that can wipe the field and the characters spend multiple duels being cautious and figuring out what it is, and they find out that god-tier card is... Mirror Force.

    Honestly, I'm surprised Obelisk made this list over Machina Citadel and Starving Venom. Citadel when combined with either Super Dora or Infinitrack Goliath makes it a one-side board wipe. And then Starving Venom though being a more conditional Dark Hole, is still a Super Poly target meaning it's a layer of protection on top of interruption that can't be responded to.

    Heya Mr. Logs from the TheDuelLogs channel, could you make a top 10 list of archetypes that have effects that "break the rules" of the game because they have card text that says they can i.e ones like Zoodiacs Xyz summoning with only one monster, Ursarctics synchroing by subtracting instead of adding levels and Blackwings synchroing with materials in the GY, Drytrons ritual summoning based on atk instead of levels, Madolches shuffling themselves back into the deck instead of going to the GY, True Dracos tribute summoning with continuous spells & traps instead of monsters etc. I think that'd be an interesting video since we get to see the history of Konami introducing new mechanics to keep the game fresh and insteresting.

    With “umi” and sea stealth attack you can turn elemental hero absolute zero into a raigeki every turn. I’ve messed around with it in master duel as a troll deck. It’s hilarious but not too competitive yet bc it’s just too hard to setup quickly. Even with 3x warrior of Atlantis and 3x legendary ocean and 3x ssa, you’d still need poly, a hero and a water card. Might be more viable when the new sea stealth support comes to the tgc in the future.

    I personally believe Machina could be in Obelisk’s or Mirror force’s place. Obelisk requires to tribute 2 monsters and locks you from attacking with it that turn, where citadel destroys a monster of your choice (potentially helping you to special summon citadel from the grave of there’s another one there) but also doesn’t restrict you from attacking. Mirror force only destroys attack position monsters meaning that it’s not rocket science to switch your monsters in defense position to secure them as well as having to be activated during the battle phase making it even more situational comparing it to citadel’s quick effect that can be used at any time.

Of the old school "staples", Foolish Burial had the most copies present, 4, all mainboarded.

    Minor correction, it has 2700 attack (I'm assuming it was a typo lmao). And has archetypal ways of destroying itself via card effect. Circle of the Fire Kings is a quick play spell card that allows you to destroy one fire monster you control and special summon one fire monster from the graveyard. Also Onslought of the Fire Kings allows you to special summon any Fire King monster from your deck if you have no monsters but it is destroyed during the end phase. Another thing to note is that if you managed to get a second Fire King High Avatar Garunix on the field during the same turn that the one summoned via onslaught was still there before being destroyed you would make an infinite loop unless one was banished or destroyed by battle. On top of other fire kings being able to destroy other cards you control or in your hand or via the same effect as onslaught but instead when it is sent to the gv this effect is easy to do without cooperation from your opponent.

    It isn't like Raigeki in that it nukes the whole field instead of just monsters. It does require 4 different Lightsworns in gy to summon; mill top 4 cards of your deck, has no self-protection and only 3000 atk with 2600 def. Far easier to beat with both card effects and battle while being harder to summon. Paying more than 2000 lp can be detrimental as well. It is far more powerful an effect at the cost of protection and summoning: no protection and can only be special summon and with specific cards.

    Best cards that revolve around helping normal summon monsters, or best cards that prefer to be normal summoned (like Breaker the magical warrior). Also, an idea for such a support card: _Normal Summon Cascade_ Quick Play Spell _Once per turn you may banish at least one monster you own with a level in your hand or field; until the end phase of your next turn you may conduct three additional normal or tribute summons per turn of monsters with the same level, type and attribute as that monster(s) you banished. When you activate this set card, this cards effects cannot be negated, and you gain LP equal to the combined levels of monsters you normal or tribute summon X500 until the end phase of your next turn. Monsters you normal or tribute summon after the activation of this card cannot be used as material to summon extra deck monsters until the end phase of your next turn, and until the end phase of your next turn your opponents cards are unaffected by their card effects._

    Thunderclap Skywolf definitely should have been on this list. If you use it as the main boss monster in a deck along with Thunder Seahorse to search Batteryman Solar which, on normal summon, can send skywolf to the GY, you can easily setup multiple raigeki effects for your opponent's turn. The cool thing about Skywolf is that its effect is arguably easier to activate than Torrential or Mirror Force given that its only requirement is being summoned from the GY. Several trap cards can bring your monsters back like Back to The Front, Call of The Haunted, and Oasis of Dragon Souls. It has a myriad of other supporting cards as well. Unlike Torrential or Mirror Force, Skywolf doesn't suffer from backrow removal that will stop you activating the effect as you can just chain your trap cards to bring back skywolf and still activate the raigeki effect on resolution. Skywolf decks (at least the one I play) are hyper consistent. Because you don't special summon on your first turn but your opponent's turn, you're able to get to your setup cards like Batteryman Solar and revival trap cards with other cards like Thunder Seahorse, Card of Demise, or any good "Pot" cards except Desires. Also, the drawback of Demise is actually a benefit for Skywolf decks because you need it in your GY to interrupt your opponent. Now, the drawback of Skywolf's effect and probably the reason that you didn't include it in the list is because it specifies "Face up monsters". But I think that drawback is less bad than potentially destroying your own monsters as well like how Dark Hole and Torrential Tribute can. The fact that it doesn't destroy your own monsters is even more valuable because of how Skywolf interacts with Batteryman Solar. Because Batteryman Solar will summon a thunder token whenever a thunder monster is summoned, you can start your plays with Batteryman, send Skywolf, pass turn, summon Skywolf, get the token, wipe your opponent's board, and probably have two thunder monsters when you start your turn because you've interrupted your opponent so much. Even if you don't have two, you can probably get another normal summon on the board via the plethora of draw spells at your disposal or the overpowered effect of Thunder Seahorse which searches not one, but two of a monster from the deck. If you have two thunder monsters and you've run out of revival traps or have dead cards in hand, you can use those two monsters to link into Some Summer Summoner which has an effect that allows you to, on your opponent's turn, discard one card to special summon a thunder monster from your GY to a monster zone it points to. Alternatively, if you start your turn with Skywolf on the field and need to get rid of it, you can link it and two other monsters into Soldier of Chaos and gain its additional effect which gives it Towers-like protection. By the time you get to Soldier of Chaos you've probably drained your opponent of resources to deal with such a threat which makes it a great way to close out the game. There are some obvious counters to Skywolf, though. If your opponent targets Skywolf with Called By The Grave and its effect resolves, you might lose the duel. This is why you play cards like Solemn Judgment, Dark Bribe, and Imperial Iron Wall (the most important). There's a trap card I like to tech in sometimes called Thunder Dragon Discharge which is a part of the Thunder Dragon archetype that prevents your Thunder Monster's effect from being negated. However, it doesn't prevent your revival traps from being negated and drawing multiple is really bad. TheDuelLogs, please play Thunderclap Turbo on stream. You would love it. TY.

    Another Good card with a Raigeki like effect could be "Gandora X: The Dragon of Demolition" Who is a level 8 Dark Dragon Monster with the effect of destroy all other monsters on the field and inflict burn damage to your opponent equal to the Hightest attack of a Monster destroyed by this effect and also gains attack equal to the damage inflicted by this effect with the only downside being that if you used it's effect your Life points are halfed at the end of the turn, and It was so good that It was banned for a while.

You can do it as much as possible and a lot of cards name them selfs umi. You can do it as many times as you want as well. I guess it probably wasn't used in competitive for whatever reason.

    Idk if it would really count as a "best" raigeki effect but I'm a little surprised to see no mention of Aslla Piscu. Granted they nerfed him with his very first errata but considering he nukes face up monsters and burns, I would've thought he might've been mentioned. Ignoring, of course, the fact that earthbounds don't really see play due to their rather glaring weaknesses. :(

    I know earth machines are nowhere near top tier but man it’s sad not to see Machina Citadel on this list, even as an honorable mention. It has such an abusable and easily-recyclable Raigeki-like effect on top of providing a fat body and easy recursion. Any time I’ve managed to overcome a top tier deck with my earth machines, Citadel was always a critical piece of clearing my opponent’s board or getting combos going along with Anger Knuckle during my opponent’s turn, on top of the fact that it’s another easily accessible rank 10 piece for your BIG TANK TRAINS

    Question: What made you pick Absolute Zero over Evil HERO Malicious Bane, since Bane can destroy all your opponent's monsters with lower ATK once per turn, and can't be destroyed? Not disagreeing (or agreeing), just curious.

  • @nichidoushiro

    @nichidoushiro

    2 жыл бұрын

    I think the main reason is that absolute zero's effect triggers no matter how it leaves the field (unless sent back into the extra deck), which means most forms of removals and even your own card effects can trigger the nuke (which also means you can trigger it actively during your opponent's turn), and also, given the pace of the current metagame, you don't usually need a second nuke to establish a strong enough board presence to win, so Malicious Bane's once per turn is not highly necessary.

This would be different from the absorb effect with Relinquish & Plasma because those take the opponent's monsters. I'm thinking of equipping your own monsters. Cyberdark cards that used to grab Hunter Dragon & 5 Headed Dragon from the grave. (I used Rainbow Dark Dragon with Foolish, B. myself.) Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword. The little dragon's for Buster Blader. Dragunity cards. Monsters that usually performed better attachment to another card than solely just themselves.
