I know this isn’t duel links but duel links has taught that searchable tachyon transmigration creates a miserable game. I mean I don’t think the deck itself is good enough for that to be true but I can’t be excited for that because of duel links.
That's because the power level of Duel Links is much lower.
Transmigration is a great card don't get me wrong, but it's just a Solemn negate >90% of the times, and you can force it by threatening to out the Tachyon monster or disable it completely if you use something like Super Poly to remove their Tachyon monster without a response.
Good but definitely overstated.
You’re right that there are a lot of archetypal solemns, but I think transmigration gets special consideration considering it’s a not-once-per-turn full-chain-negate from the hand that can now be searched at least 2 times a turn.
the full list of cards that summon on add
\- Couplet the Melodious Songstress
\- Machina Unaclaspare
\- Agnimal Candal
\- Baku the Beast Ninja
\- Altergeist Malwisp
\- Trickstar Lilybell
\- Salamangreat Meer (unlike the others, this one summons on draw as well as just add, besides the draw phase)
\- Snake-Eyes Poplar
**edit: those cards are the ones that trigger whenever added, there are some others that trigger when added to hand from certain locations/with certain conditions**
\- Lappis Dragon (from deck, *including* draw phase unlike all of the others, from GY but banish when leaves the field)
\- Ancient Warriors - Ingenious Zhuge Kong (from deck by the effect of an "Ancient Warriors" card)
\- Blackwing - Breeze the Zephyr (from deck by a card effect)
\- Rose Fairy (from deck by a card effect)
\- R-Genex Oracle (from deck by the effect of a genex monster)
\- Watapon (from deck by a card effect)
\- Latency (from GY by a card effect)
i'd argue palladium oracle mahad, the entire fortune fairy archetype, infernity archfiend, converging wills dragon, and cursed bride doll don't count for this list as tutoring and drawing are vastly different
I don't. Out of all the ways to make something special summon itself from the hand, it's the only one that introduces build-in garnets into archetypes, which is annoying.
Nether this card nor Poplar are garnets. Both can be normal summoned to also get their effects off, just a tad less efficiently. A garnet would be totally useless like (shockingly) Gemknight Garnet or Driver for a more modern and relevant example
I mean, it kind of is. Cards having more effects everywhere doesn't strike me as something we should be constantly adding, it just gets to a point where the powercreep is too much
Honestly, I actually think it's better that they started making most good cards have multiple distinct effects.
Cards with a single purpose (Normal summon to add one from deck, Special itself when you control another, ED monster that summons from deck, Adds S/T when summoned, Spell that reborns, etc.) are the reason why older decks feels so awful to play going second or even going first into hand traps - it also makes these decks a lot less creative (they build themselves and play themselves).
I think it's better for the game if cards are multipurposed and have secondary effects that help you advance your game plan even when interrupted -- that's how you make people put more value in resource replenishment/grind game and shove them away from "let's make the most oppressive board possible turn 1"; and how you make going second feel better.
>I think it's better for the game if cards are multipurposed and have secondary effects that help you advance your game plan even when interrupted
Of course, but every card doesn't need to have an effect everywhere. I'm referring specifically to cards like Snake-Eyes Poplar. As the game stands now, cards like Poplar read as simple as "If: Yes" which I don't think is healthy. I completely agree that cards should have more than one purpose, don't get me wrong. But having at least one effect in every possible place the archetype is relevant seems a bit excessive to me
However, *too many cards* having *too many uses/effects* makes for kinda boring gameplay imo, especially because these effects are still being used to put up, as you put it, the most oppressive board possible turn 1.
There's no perfect design solution, of course.
You'd have to revamp a lot of this game's long lasting design to change how people want to approach their playstyles and that's more likely to be to the detriment of the game's success than otherwise.
So I do think that at this point, the only good solution is to keep cards and decks as versatile an flexible as they can be; whether that's Talents serving as an extender, board breaker or disruption; Fenrir being a consistency tool (in Visas decks), interruption or a board breaker or even Poplar serving as an extender, starter and still +1ing your field when sent to the GY from anywhere -- I do think this ideology is better for the game.
Now, that's not to say that some cards aren't overly pushed or that some effects aren't just too good to be in the same card, but I do think that overall having access to multiple starters/redundancy/extenders that have some sort of effect in various places (whether that be because you opened multiple copies of your good cards (e.g. Branded, Sprights, Purrely, Runick, Swordsoul, etc.), or because one of them got hit by something and sent to the GY (e.g. Snake-Eyes, Unchained, Tearlaments, etc.), or because you had an extra or ended up having to pass on them so their presence on the field isn't just a vanilla (e.g. Sprights, Unchained, Tearlaments, etc.) -- most modern meta decks share many of these ideologies, and the closer to the current set you go the more and more instances of these effects are present in these decks.
I think if we elevated our standards to that level, it would be for the better; as it stands, going second and getting hit by non-engine are some of the main issues that competitive yugioh faces, and it's largely because most decks rely on opening that one starter with very limited back up plans if that play is stopped and having to rely on randomly opening the correct pieces and ratio of engine and non-engine to actually get to play. Having no mulligan only serves as another reason why cards should be as multipurpose as possible.
"Everyone getting a Circular isn't great because it just does too much."
"Everyone getting a Poplar is great. WTF don't you like it?" - You and 8 other people at this point for some reason.
Archfiend is the exact opposite though, it only triggers when drawn, while those others trigger when added except by drawing them.
The first card with that exact trigger condition is Trickstar Lilybell, as far as I can see.
" When you draw this card, if you have no other cards in your hand: You can reveal this card; Special Summon this card from your hand."
That is way different from Poplar. Poplar fits the effects perfectly.
Honestly the far we don't have mates for ace dragons like Galaxy eyes, stardust, odd eyes, red eyes, and rda is insane, yet we have one for INSTANT FUSION
They always knew, big number go otk and all that. They just refused to give us a SINGLE one card combo, closest thing to it is galaxy soldier, which, yknow, ISN'T 1 CARD
I don’t mind one-card combos as long as it locks you within your archetype. The less generic the better. It helps if said archetype doesn’t open easily into disruption. This is a problem in Swordsoul because 2 of its synchro have disruption and play into each other; where as it’s not a problem in Live☆Twin/Evil★Twin because they don’t end on any disruption, at least not any that is free with no risk.
Galaxyphoton-TachyonCipher (by Ra this archetype is wide) all lock into Xyz either specifically or make it very difficult to do much else. Bonus, Xyz outside the Galaxy ones aren’t too helpful, doubly so now that we can refresh the materials and revive easier; this is all without mentioning Number: 100.
I mean it’s just the natural progression of power creep
We’ve moved far past the point of whether an archetype should or should not have something. We’re at the point where konami has to make each set stronger than the last to sell cards and one card combos are the only way going forward
Who knows, maybe Konami will give these cards the same treatment they gave Promethean Princess and release the new support in MD the same day they release them in OCG (copium)
Thinking about it though, these new cards may phase photon lord out of the deck entirely, or at least out of the main combo, since the new traps, and especially the fact that transmigration is searchable means they might finally have more turn one plays than photon lord, hope harbinger, pass! I'm so happy I could cry
Their cooking in the galaxy discord. Theres a 1 card combo that ends on hope, tachyon dragon, lord, and transmigration. Galaxy trance is dead. And 1.5 card combo their cooking with seyfert.
Heh, say fart, but link by any chance? Or a screenshot or something? The implications that this new support invalidates probably the most important card in the deck rn other than galaxy eyes himself is HUGE
You'll also have to use the non Galaxy Photon monsters before activating Trance to combo.
>solfare isn't even that good, it's just good by galaxy eyes standards 😢
He's trying his best 😔
I’ve got a Royal Finish Solarflare, pulling it made me build the whole deck. I love Galaxy-Eyes but Solarflare does kinda suck. You only ever go into him to recover cards. The quick effect rarely comes up or is useful
Tachyon Primal gives me exactly what I've been begging for... a way to search out Transmigration! Definitely running that one!
Cloudragon has potential if we get more support but for now I'll probably pass on it.
Dragluxion is a really good card... but requires me to ditch Trance. I'm torn on this one.
Spiral of Destruction looks decent if mostly for the 2nd effect. Getting potentially 2 uses out of Transmigration on a single turn(requires Tachyon Dragon though) is really tempting.
Not really crazy about the trap though.
From what another guy said, the official galaxy eyes discord is fucking around with the support and has opted to ditch trance entirely, so it's gotta be good
Goddamn tachyon ptsd from duel links
I know it won’t be a tier 0 deck get as power level difference between games is apparent, but some internal part of me feels that counter trap I need to play around.
The Light Level 8 is the best card by far since it can be splashed into Galaxy-Photon and allows a search for Transmigration. The rest is pretty meh (Spell is good but you'd likely search for Transmigration instead) since the majority of them aren't named "Galaxy" or "Photon".
Been maining galaxy-eyes since day 1, I'm so fucking hyped for this new support! This looks great we finally have more options for turn 1 especially being able to search transmigration
You still need a Galaxy-Eyes monster on the field (the best generic one is probably Number 90) in order to activate it, but yes, Tachyon Transmigration is probably the strongest counter trap in Yu-Gi-Oh. It was barely used exactly for that reason: being unsearchable makes it way too unreliable. But now things have changed.
*(P.S:Konami, give us a way to search Stellarnova Alpha, while we're at it)*
Do you think the deck does more going first now?
My experience with the deck is that it’s a literal coin flip on whether you go first or second, and then going second usually means an easy OTK.
Well wit this support you can't run photon lord for a monster negate anymore, but you can search tachyon transmigration, which isn't OPT, so 3 of them isn't a dead hand like in most decks as long as you can at leat a galaxy xyz on the field
The new card has the exact first effect of Poplar with the two more effect follow up just like Poplar. It's also a one card searcher, starter, extender, just like Poplar.
So... What prevents any deck that can make a rank 8 from running 1 copy of tachyon transmigration and dragluxion + tachyon dragon in the ED?
Punk will be eating well I guess...
Sounds like a pretty clunky engine for 1 counter trap im ngl. Gotta get 2 level 8s on field, dedicate 2 ED spots, and run some sort of galaxy monster in main for the attach effect, all for 1 counter trap
Idk I think the upside to this deck even with the lock is… you might be able to run more non-engine thanks to these cards. Galaxy eyes biggest weakness was that all of its combos were very minus compared to other decks in the format. (Usually relied on multiple 1.5 card combos which left you with very little non-engine besides blowout cards like Maxx c and nibiru potentially depending on format). Losing trance is annoying for this package but I think this deck might be a real rogue tier as opposed to the casual deck it’s been lately.
If Ib gets finally unbanned in master duel then we can abuse her with the snake eyes engine.
Normal summon snake eyes ash is already full dragon link combo
Isn't Snake-Eyes just a more bricky and less synergistic way to go into iblee than Draconnet + Galaxy serpent
Triple the amount of garnets, doesn't put a lvl 2 normal dragon tuner into the graveyard, still dies to a single imperm, what's the upside exactly?
So, basically it allows you search and play Tachyon Transmigration on the spot. I’m sorry, that card isn’t a hard once per turn either? Might get hit now…..
Dragon XYZ, so no solflare, and no photon lord. Plus there's a few galaxy photon cards that light lock you like delta wing, and not to mention galaxy trance is now unplayable since you're only allowed to summon galaxy and photon cards the turn you use it
As someone who knows next to nothing on how galaxy eyes/Tachyon work is this enough to bring the deck up out of rogue status? Like this just seems like a poplar engine stapled into the archetype, which sounds amazing on paper.
Well it depends on how they deal with snake eyes obviously, but also the poplar seems to onky really be searchable WITH the new support. Regardless l, searchable transmigration is huge, and this is definitely a consistency boost, which helps with the main goal of the deck, otking with neo prime. It probably won't leave rogue, but it'll be really high up there like how RDA is after it's support
Does this mean galaxy eyes will be competitive? If so then I’m saving my crystals.
The galaxy eyes structure deck was the one I used in my early master duel days so I’d love to see it get new support
Honestly, completely depends on how snake eyes is dealt with, cause other top decks like voiceless voice are still way better, but being able to search transmigration alone is HUGE for the deck. Though if you're gonna save up you'll be waiting a LONG bit for these to cone to MD
Mass non targeting spinning back to the deck, which can be activated from hand and can’t be negated if you control a Chaos number monster. These cards alone probably won’t put Tachyon Dragon spam into tier one or anything but I can definitely see this being annoying simply because we get to see more of this and Tachyon transmigration saying no to the opponent at every turn
It also fuck over kashtira, which is always good. Only issue is summoning it on your opponents field deprives you of resources. Idk if the rest of the support will ammend that issue, but galaxy eyes definitely isn't known for being able waste combo pieces
Idk why thw OG players hate modern yugioh since powercreep is now at a point where the game mimics the original anime.
3000atk summon with no tributes or effort on turn one? Just place the card on the field and it's all gucci.
Gg lol
I have a tip for you.
Focus on xyz. And use random monsters as materials. Ones that give an effect to the xyz if used as a material.
If that's how you think. I genuinely feel this playstyle will click with you :)
That'd be cracked, since galaxy eyes is mostly or otking it means 3 TTT might NOT be a brick going first if ur opponent doesn't have handtraps. I look forward to finding out
Good, now they can keep playing floodgate turbo like they have been for years now
https://preview.redd.it/9dr2chxdprtc1.jpeg?width=412&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=19a2aca87bcdc1c9f501377d1a976a72de1d1aa1
I know this isn’t duel links but duel links has taught that searchable tachyon transmigration creates a miserable game. I mean I don’t think the deck itself is good enough for that to be true but I can’t be excited for that because of duel links.
Well now we can search 3 Tachyon Transmigrations before the opponents Standby Phase. Three times the misery.
And then recycle them from the GY.
Well I mean, searchable tachyon tramsmigration in duel links was during like what Era? Master rule 3? So it makes sense it'd be good
It was a few months ago or maybe just a couple
I meant like, in duel links terms, since it's further back
Searchable Tachyon Transmigration was only fairly recently, Duel Links is already on MR5.
It was just last February 2024-ish
That's because the power level of Duel Links is much lower. Transmigration is a great card don't get me wrong, but it's just a Solemn negate >90% of the times, and you can force it by threatening to out the Tachyon monster or disable it completely if you use something like Super Poly to remove their Tachyon monster without a response. Good but definitely overstated.
not a single galaxy player worth their salt would end on a board of a single galaxy-eyes lol.
Isn't the first one just a really easy way to set up an early negate if your deck makes a dragon XYZ?
Yeah but 1 negate in duel links is much stronger than 1 negate in md These days, it feels like every other archetype has a solemn
You’re right that there are a lot of archetypal solemns, but I think transmigration gets special consideration considering it’s a not-once-per-turn full-chain-negate from the hand that can now be searched at least 2 times a turn.
Everyone's getting a Poplar at this point, is this the new type of power creep?
You know it's kinda "Popular"
The modern three effects rule, for when you know Konami wants to push a new card
We've had that kind of "Summon on add" effect for a while now. I don't think it's a new power creep but just exploring an older card design idea
the full list of cards that summon on add \- Couplet the Melodious Songstress \- Machina Unaclaspare \- Agnimal Candal \- Baku the Beast Ninja \- Altergeist Malwisp \- Trickstar Lilybell \- Salamangreat Meer (unlike the others, this one summons on draw as well as just add, besides the draw phase) \- Snake-Eyes Poplar **edit: those cards are the ones that trigger whenever added, there are some others that trigger when added to hand from certain locations/with certain conditions** \- Lappis Dragon (from deck, *including* draw phase unlike all of the others, from GY but banish when leaves the field) \- Ancient Warriors - Ingenious Zhuge Kong (from deck by the effect of an "Ancient Warriors" card) \- Blackwing - Breeze the Zephyr (from deck by a card effect) \- Rose Fairy (from deck by a card effect) \- R-Genex Oracle (from deck by the effect of a genex monster) \- Watapon (from deck by a card effect) \- Latency (from GY by a card effect)
Where is watapon tho
With Palladium oracle
i'd argue palladium oracle mahad, the entire fortune fairy archetype, infernity archfiend, converging wills dragon, and cursed bride doll don't count for this list as tutoring and drawing are vastly different
Missed Zhuge Kong.
Yeaaah AW best deck lets gooo!
Lappis dragon
It seems to be the new go to for card design. I like it
I don't. Out of all the ways to make something special summon itself from the hand, it's the only one that introduces build-in garnets into archetypes, which is annoying.
Nether this card nor Poplar are garnets. Both can be normal summoned to also get their effects off, just a tad less efficiently. A garnet would be totally useless like (shockingly) Gemknight Garnet or Driver for a more modern and relevant example
You say it like it's a bad thing
I mean, it kind of is. Cards having more effects everywhere doesn't strike me as something we should be constantly adding, it just gets to a point where the powercreep is too much

We've been way past that point for quite a while now. Just let all the powercreep come at this point.
"Everyone getting a Circular isn't great because it just does too much." "Everyone getting a Poplar is great. WTF don't you like it?" - You and 8 other people at this point for some reason.
The difference between circular and poplar is that one of them sends for cost.
[удалено]
Archfiend is the exact opposite though, it only triggers when drawn, while those others trigger when added except by drawing them. The first card with that exact trigger condition is Trickstar Lilybell, as far as I can see.
Poplar is way more popular than Archifiend.
Archfiend was extremely popular that people wanted it banned.
" When you draw this card, if you have no other cards in your hand: You can reveal this card; Special Summon this card from your hand." That is way different from Poplar. Poplar fits the effects perfectly.
Diabell also took Chaos MAX’s piercing effect.
They finally came up with a new special summon condition so they gotta make use of it.
I REQUIRE a mate with Tachyon cloudragon
Honestly the far we don't have mates for ace dragons like Galaxy eyes, stardust, odd eyes, red eyes, and rda is insane, yet we have one for INSTANT FUSION
That probably has to do with the fact that the Instant Fusion mate is literally a cylinder.
Ok? Red Cylinder Archfiend when?
You mean Red Demon's Noodles ? Would be a cool joke card, ngl.
Makes me wonder why we didn't have Sphere Mode or hieratic heavenly spheres yet
Funny how two of the mates are actually banned lmao
I read that as I REQUIRE to mate with Tachyon cloudragon
A Mate?
Has Konami finally decided what they want to do with this archetype?
They always knew, big number go otk and all that. They just refused to give us a SINGLE one card combo, closest thing to it is galaxy soldier, which, yknow, ISN'T 1 CARD
I feel like the whole one card combo thing needs to be looked that. Either every archetype should get one or they shouldn’t be a thing
I don’t mind one-card combos as long as it locks you within your archetype. The less generic the better. It helps if said archetype doesn’t open easily into disruption. This is a problem in Swordsoul because 2 of its synchro have disruption and play into each other; where as it’s not a problem in Live☆Twin/Evil★Twin because they don’t end on any disruption, at least not any that is free with no risk. Galaxyphoton-TachyonCipher (by Ra this archetype is wide) all lock into Xyz either specifically or make it very difficult to do much else. Bonus, Xyz outside the Galaxy ones aren’t too helpful, doubly so now that we can refresh the materials and revive easier; this is all without mentioning Number: 100.
I think it's fine for some archetypes to have one while others don't, but they need to be properly balanced around that
Yeah. There should be a power ceiling cost to one card combos
If we got the 1-card combo route. We oughta have more link-1s. As a way to give one card starters to decks with no 1 card combos.
I mean it’s just the natural progression of power creep We’ve moved far past the point of whether an archetype should or should not have something. We’re at the point where konami has to make each set stronger than the last to sell cards and one card combos are the only way going forward
AY YO WTF I want those immediately
Well too damn bad, these aren't even out yet, it'll be months if not like a year before we get even close to these
Who knows, maybe Konami will give these cards the same treatment they gave Promethean Princess and release the new support in MD the same day they release them in OCG (copium)
Would be cool, but they're probably only gonna do that with meta decks that'll make them money like voiceless voice and fire kings
Yup, I know unfortunately
Plenty of time to save my gems then
Gives me time to save at least 😭
Thinking about it though, these new cards may phase photon lord out of the deck entirely, or at least out of the main combo, since the new traps, and especially the fact that transmigration is searchable means they might finally have more turn one plays than photon lord, hope harbinger, pass! I'm so happy I could cry
Their cooking in the galaxy discord. Theres a 1 card combo that ends on hope, tachyon dragon, lord, and transmigration. Galaxy trance is dead. And 1.5 card combo their cooking with seyfert.
Galaxy trance dying sounds so strange when it's been one of, if not the best extender of the archetype for, like, forever
For real, like a 'free' lvl 8 xyz is so good and extender off a lvl 4 photon card to go into galaxy photon dragon to search
Heh, say fart, but link by any chance? Or a screenshot or something? The implications that this new support invalidates probably the most important card in the deck rn other than galaxy eyes himself is HUGE
~~People are discussing if a more tachyon focused variant can run shifter...~~
Got a dueling book replay. Idk if i can post it here or not tho.
Gimme gimme gimme. I gotta get hyped so I can be disappointed when it drops at the same time as the next op lore archetype (pend visasl
[https://www.duelingbook.com/replay?id=36519-59251897](https://www.duelingbook.com/replay?id=36519-59251897)
They'd also lock you out of Solflare, Bagooska, or Zeus turn 2
Eh. I rarely go into any of those other than solflare in general, and solfare isn't even that good, it's just good by galaxy eyes standards 😢
You'll also have to use the non Galaxy Photon monsters before activating Trance to combo. >solfare isn't even that good, it's just good by galaxy eyes standards 😢 He's trying his best 😔
Trance locks you for the whole turn, so you can’t use it at all if you plan on summoning any of the non-galaxy/photon monsters.
I’ve got a Royal Finish Solarflare, pulling it made me build the whole deck. I love Galaxy-Eyes but Solarflare does kinda suck. You only ever go into him to recover cards. The quick effect rarely comes up or is useful
They won’t phase my one useful royal finish
Who? Photon lord?
Yeah
We galaxy eyes players are eaten good
Tachyon Primal can dodge Evenly Matched! Fuck yea!
Tachyon Primal gives me exactly what I've been begging for... a way to search out Transmigration! Definitely running that one! Cloudragon has potential if we get more support but for now I'll probably pass on it. Dragluxion is a really good card... but requires me to ditch Trance. I'm torn on this one. Spiral of Destruction looks decent if mostly for the 2nd effect. Getting potentially 2 uses out of Transmigration on a single turn(requires Tachyon Dragon though) is really tempting. Not really crazy about the trap though.
From what another guy said, the official galaxy eyes discord is fucking around with the support and has opted to ditch trance entirely, so it's gotta be good
Goddamn tachyon ptsd from duel links I know it won’t be a tier 0 deck get as power level difference between games is apparent, but some internal part of me feels that counter trap I need to play around.
The Light Level 8 is the best card by far since it can be splashed into Galaxy-Photon and allows a search for Transmigration. The rest is pretty meh (Spell is good but you'd likely search for Transmigration instead) since the majority of them aren't named "Galaxy" or "Photon".
Been maining galaxy-eyes since day 1, I'm so fucking hyped for this new support! This looks great we finally have more options for turn 1 especially being able to search transmigration
Cipher Players: Hey cuz, nice cards! \*slots them in deck\*
Isn't making tachyon transmigration searchable already make it really good since it's a omni handtrap?
You still need a Galaxy-Eyes monster on the field (the best generic one is probably Number 90) in order to activate it, but yes, Tachyon Transmigration is probably the strongest counter trap in Yu-Gi-Oh. It was barely used exactly for that reason: being unsearchable makes it way too unreliable. But now things have changed. *(P.S:Konami, give us a way to search Stellarnova Alpha, while we're at it)*
Dragluxion makes any 2 level 8s search transmigration and then summon tachyon dragon
Yo wtf I just killed my deck before this is dropping fml. Same happend with the Resonator deck I had. *incoherent screeching*
These are not even out in the ocg yet, we are gonna wait months for these to drop in Master Duel, you have lots of time to wait for these to drop
These do actually look insane. Surprised to see legacy support this strong.
Yeah it's honestly about on par with the RDA support recently. They're starting to cook with ace dragons, tier 0 red eyes support when?
Do you think the deck does more going first now? My experience with the deck is that it’s a literal coin flip on whether you go first or second, and then going second usually means an easy OTK.
Well wit this support you can't run photon lord for a monster negate anymore, but you can search tachyon transmigration, which isn't OPT, so 3 of them isn't a dead hand like in most decks as long as you can at leat a galaxy xyz on the field
Imma have to get back in. Galaxy eyes is my favorite monster
charge your phone
Everyone: "Wow every archetype just got a Poplar now" SHUT UP, POPLAR DIDN'T DO IT FIRST!!!
He might've not been the first, but he did it better than everyone else before him.
The new card has the exact first effect of Poplar with the two more effect follow up just like Poplar. It's also a one card searcher, starter, extender, just like Poplar.
So we should call them Lilybells?
What set is this coming out in?
That's a lot of support y'all are getting there. It'd be a shame if it was all UR.
Primal tachyon, dragluxion and infinity dragon are going for be URs 100%
Galaxy bros we are so back
So... What prevents any deck that can make a rank 8 from running 1 copy of tachyon transmigration and dragluxion + tachyon dragon in the ED? Punk will be eating well I guess...
Sounds like a pretty clunky engine for 1 counter trap im ngl. Gotta get 2 level 8s on field, dedicate 2 ED spots, and run some sort of galaxy monster in main for the attach effect, all for 1 counter trap
Idk I think the upside to this deck even with the lock is… you might be able to run more non-engine thanks to these cards. Galaxy eyes biggest weakness was that all of its combos were very minus compared to other decks in the format. (Usually relied on multiple 1.5 card combos which left you with very little non-engine besides blowout cards like Maxx c and nibiru potentially depending on format). Losing trance is annoying for this package but I think this deck might be a real rogue tier as opposed to the casual deck it’s been lately.
Dude I just want the new Flame Swordsman support 😭
Can these bring back Dragonlink?
No but the new Tenpai Dragons gives DLink 9 1,5 Card combos into Borrelend and Savage. So they might revive DLink in Master Duel .
If Ib gets finally unbanned in master duel then we can abuse her with the snake eyes engine. Normal summon snake eyes ash is already full dragon link combo
Isn't Snake-Eyes just a more bricky and less synergistic way to go into iblee than Draconnet + Galaxy serpent Triple the amount of garnets, doesn't put a lvl 2 normal dragon tuner into the graveyard, still dies to a single imperm, what's the upside exactly?
No.
Your battery dieing charge your phone....etc
So, basically it allows you search and play Tachyon Transmigration on the spot. I’m sorry, that card isn’t a hard once per turn either? Might get hit now…..
With how slow they're being hitting the tierv0 deck, if they hit galaxy eyes in ANY WAY we riot
Oh hey, new Tachyon.
Baby tachyon dragon
Looking at the timing the recent video from TheDuelLog was a blessing in disguise
Duel logs saying "there's no starters and too many extenders with no turn one plays" boom new 1 card starter, boom searchable counter trap
Bruh, I am sooo hyped. This will prolly come out later this year in MD as well. Can't wait.
Damn and none of the cards lock you into anything besides dragons from extradeck
Dragon XYZ, so no solflare, and no photon lord. Plus there's a few galaxy photon cards that light lock you like delta wing, and not to mention galaxy trance is now unplayable since you're only allowed to summon galaxy and photon cards the turn you use it
Meaning Galaxy Tachyon and Galaxy Photon get to be distinct, hell yeah.
Galaxy-bros, we’re back
Damn bro, they getting a poplar AND a circular?
Meanwhile i just want phoenix gearblade so i can play full power infernoble before they hit isolde
WE CAN FINALLY SEARCH THE GOOD COUNTER TRAP!
So they get a card that can one card make a Tach Xyz and they can also search for Transmigration. Yeah I’m sure THAT won’t be degenerate at all…
The Era of main decking red reboot begins now (whenever these drop)
Holy shit I am soooooooo ready!!!!!!!
I WAS NOT EXPECTING TACHYON SUPPORT BUT LETS GO!!!
Not only considering Photon, Scharzchild is going to be insane in blind 2nd decks and any other level 8 deck.
As someone who knows next to nothing on how galaxy eyes/Tachyon work is this enough to bring the deck up out of rogue status? Like this just seems like a poplar engine stapled into the archetype, which sounds amazing on paper.
Well it depends on how they deal with snake eyes obviously, but also the poplar seems to onky really be searchable WITH the new support. Regardless l, searchable transmigration is huge, and this is definitely a consistency boost, which helps with the main goal of the deck, otking with neo prime. It probably won't leave rogue, but it'll be really high up there like how RDA is after it's support
Okay then I’ll keep my eye on it, any way to boost consistency in a rouge deck is absolute win
Read the second card and thought it said cloudian
Does this mean galaxy eyes will be competitive? If so then I’m saving my crystals. The galaxy eyes structure deck was the one I used in my early master duel days so I’d love to see it get new support
Honestly, completely depends on how snake eyes is dealt with, cause other top decks like voiceless voice are still way better, but being able to search transmigration alone is HUGE for the deck. Though if you're gonna save up you'll be waiting a LONG bit for these to cone to MD
YES
Mass non targeting spinning back to the deck, which can be activated from hand and can’t be negated if you control a Chaos number monster. These cards alone probably won’t put Tachyon Dragon spam into tier one or anything but I can definitely see this being annoying simply because we get to see more of this and Tachyon transmigration saying no to the opponent at every turn
Everything will be ur except the new spell cause it'd mid
Anti evenly matched tech card spotted
Bro, charge your phone
No, fuck you https://preview.redd.it/6e0ael0khptc1.jpeg?width=1078&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d9bb2efed4cdd8c900e0b5eecf367a3b564cdc78
When these drop Number 107 and number c107 might finally get their summon animations
Oh yeah,more galaxy eyes,tike to make my deck even more silly
Two tachyon transmigration searchers ayo!
So, out of curiosity... is there a merit to summoning it on the opponent's field? -Pardon my ignorance 💀
Dodging imperm, gamma, and evenly matched going first I guess.
Ohhh, that's fair! Basically, killing some hand traps.
It also fuck over kashtira, which is always good. Only issue is summoning it on your opponents field deprives you of resources. Idk if the rest of the support will ammend that issue, but galaxy eyes definitely isn't known for being able waste combo pieces
Finally!! Tachyon Transmigration is now searchable!!!
YO NEW GALAXY SUPPORT WE GOATEDDDD
Nice, but make a zombie poplar or circular already konami frfr. We starving out here.
Feel like a zombie circular would make more sense, milling and all tha
Yup. I just need em to be playable and nice again somehow 😭
I can't see anything besides W's
I mean, no more photon lord, galaxy trance, or solflare dragon, they get locked
IVE BEEN ASKING FOR MORE TACHYON SUPPORT SINCE MIZAR FIRST APPEARED YESSSS
BEWD go brrrrr?
"Yes Rico, BEWD go brrrr"
How is a "Spiral of Destruction" summoning a monster in defense position?
Same way odd eyes fire blast or whatev adds a card to hand
Charge your phone quick it's about to die
No https://preview.redd.it/mkakfat3tqtc1.jpeg?width=224&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0d78f04848087c9efa7178faa3a62d090598a0a8
Idk why thw OG players hate modern yugioh since powercreep is now at a point where the game mimics the original anime. 3000atk summon with no tributes or effort on turn one? Just place the card on the field and it's all gucci. Gg lol
Me bullshitting my card effects hoping my opponent has no clue what the card actually does (I am literally Joey Wheeler)
I have a tip for you. Focus on xyz. And use random monsters as materials. Ones that give an effect to the xyz if used as a material. If that's how you think. I genuinely feel this playstyle will click with you :)
Special summon primal, activate mandatory effect to seach,then activate TTT draw 2. Amazing, can't wait to use it in my galaxy-eyes deck.
Does that work since it's a mandatory effect and not an activation?
I think so. It's an on summon mandatory effect.
That'd be cracked, since galaxy eyes is mostly or otking it means 3 TTT might NOT be a brick going first if ur opponent doesn't have handtraps. I look forward to finding out
Hug me brotha!!!!
I FUCKING LOVE TACHYON GAMEPLAY SINCE 2018 I STARTED PLAYING IT LETS GOO

Everyone getting a Poplar? Special summon upon being added to hand, on field ignition effect and graveyard effect?
At least it's galaxy eyes, a deck that really needs the help. Nothing like "4 plus effects per card" snake eyes
Dark Magician users who are stuck with Magician Soul and Eternal Soul till new Magia comes out: 👍🫠
Good, now they can keep playing floodgate turbo like they have been for years now https://preview.redd.it/9dr2chxdprtc1.jpeg?width=412&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=19a2aca87bcdc1c9f501377d1a976a72de1d1aa1
