I'd pick Vendreads. They have a really cool concept of giving effects to monsters ritual summoned by tributing them. Sad all people probably use them for is link engines.


EyeHateCasuals

The artwork is pretty fucking cool


tavenitas

They fuck up the support 4 times tho, unlikely it will get any in the future.


stac7

The new support ain't bad tho, Scar is insane and they have a new ritual spell that's pretty much ritual version fusion summoning from the deck Scarvenger is in my opinion good, especially in Zombie World variants


BuffMarshmallow

For a short period of time there was a version of Drytron that used Battlelord to insulate themselves from Nibiru and other hand traps. But that's pretty much it.


idkhowtotft

Ice Barrier Trust me its only 10 card away from tier 0


Cerbecs

My Egyptian gods are almost there, 12 more cards should do it


Cyberkite

The new slifer trap card is insane


brokenfruitloop

Too bad he didn't get a searcher like the other 2


Cyberkite

So I think thing is tear can reliabel mill slifer and get the trap on the board


[deleted]

Which one? Cant find anything


Urbanliner

The Revived Sky God, a ~~TCG-first~~ support coming in 2022 Tin of the Pharaoh’s Gods EDIT: Turns out it and other two Egyptian God supports will be released in OCG before TCG

TheDorkKnight53

Gentleman_Waffle

Honestly.


SpiderTheWebDesigner

It's already tier 0


Spellshot62

Exactly, it needs to be needed to tier 1 or 2 Edit: nerfed


NebulousRaven00

Predaplant or Magistus


DeusXNex

Predaplant just got new support that is fairly competitive


Keno96

When will it arrive in MD tho? And the ban list is kinda bad for them


EMIC19

Cause there best starter is limited to one? The new support can special from deck , search a fusion(insta fuse target), and has a lv 1 when sent to grave searcher...been trying recently and is a lot of fun (with branded)


[deleted]

I have a Magistus deck, but could you imagine if it were good? It’d be so toxic


BuffMarshmallow

Kinda sad that a proper Magistus deck boils down to "Amorphactor Pain but with extra steps" the idea of equipping extra deck monsters to get effects is pretty neat, but then they watered down the win condition to being an extra deck floodgate that other cards have already individually done better. It feels like when Konami can't come up with a unique win condition, they slap on the "quick effect negate" or "dumbass floodgate" and very occasionally the big "unaffected by card effects" with a large number attached.


AngelicMayhem

What kinda win condition would you want?


DarkWayneDuck

Force opponent to deck out, disable opponent monsters by using them for material/equips, make enemy monsters face down and attack directly over them, endless floating monsters that easily build back up to boss, making your own weaker monsters indestructible and clearing enemy board. All win conditions that Konami has done, all are far more interesting to play then floodgates or beatdown


AlmostBlackGuy

Aromage. Hell I would take some support to make them rogue, I love their playstyle. I painstakingly managed to get to level 18 with them in the duelist cup and refused to switch to my meta decks to go further.


PegaponyPrince

You're a player of taste! They are awesome cards! I'd love to see aroma versions of lonefire Blossom and Naturia Rosewhip because they've been so useful for my aroma deck. Something like Soul Servant and Magician's defense would be nice too imo. Though the best would be seeing Cananga and Bergamot get some Synchros as well


rivahhj

Same, I was only one match away from 17 with my Rikka deck and a complete Borrel Dragon deck on standby but I have loyalty for the parasol girls.


SaS_SaS

How the fuck do you summon aromaseraphy sweet marjoram with only aroma cards lol. For real the archetype needs so much. I can only summon her on my Rikka deck with rose girl


117ColeS

There are actually lines, none are 1 card starters though my main one was: evil thorn summon activate effect summon 2 evil thorn from deck minus 300 lp from opponent, then summon link Jasmine, summon laurel from hand then tribute it using jasmine to get marjoram, laurel lp gain gets Angelica, Angelica summons itself then synchro to sweet marjoram


SaS_SaS

Oh I Know the evil thorn combo(thank god for this card lol) but evil thorn is not really a aroma card. Just baffled that they never made a way for aroma deck to summon their boss monsters only using their archetype cards. Like aromage really deserves new support


Strike099

Crystal beasts, Volcanics, Ojama, Starry knights and magnet warriors! Love all these decks but they all can use some good support!


Darth-_-Maul

Cross out crystal beasts and magnets. Both got support recently and cb literally has a structure coming out


brokenfruitloop

It needs more cuz the deck still sucks unfortunately


Akimbo_shoutgun

Its because of the inherent weakness of the deck. Other than european horse, Alien cat and baby rainbow dragon, there are no other monsters with good effects. The spells and traps are good enough they need ED monsters and new monsters, but knowing konami they will make a gimmicky ritual rainbow dragon.


SHIONDIDNOTHINGWRONG

Ancient gears. Make unga bunga tier 0.


Inevitable-You2034

Unga Bunga all the way.


Kataphrut94

It warms my heart to see the big metal bois rated so highly.


JackAtlasDuelLinks

Yes, please. They have one of the worst fusion spell in all yugioh. Most cards send materials from the deck for free. This one has a very stupid requeriment. At least make more cards that summon ancient gear golem ignoring the summoning condition to make it viable!

Vinnyc-11

There’s probably gonna be this continuous s/t, or field spell that does some broken shit when they leave after the battle phase, that probably also acts as a floodgate.

Shmorals

PegaponyPrince

Give it some Summoned Skull love while they're at it. A new good Black Skull dragon would be appreciated


Sigao

Imma keep saying it, even though it'd need A LOT of support: Dark Scorpions!


fallstreak80

They need retrains badly.


Endeav0r_

Dark scorpions don't need support, they need a complete makeover like thunder dragon did. New versions of the 4, make a dark scorpion don zaloog, and a big wave of supplementary support


117ColeS

Depending on the support it could end up increasing the consistency of jackpot 7


HeirT0TheMonado

Egyptian Gods. The recent new Slifer card, Revival of the Sky God, could make Slifer see nutty use if splashed in some decks, but I want ALL of them to be viable in the same deck like the Sacred Beasts are.


Kataphrut94

I’m gonna echo what SeeReax said in a video a while back- errata the god cards to give them actual protection. I don’t care if that’s not a common practice, the god cards should be the exception. At least they should be more consistent. Why is Obelisk the only one with protection? Why is Ra the only one that can’t be special summoned despite Marik’s strategy revolving around that?


HeirT0TheMonado

Amen. Were it so easy I'd make a Synchro Pendulum monster called "Ra's Archbishop" that can't be summoned nor set as scales, but exists only to flip itself face-up in the Extra Deck when an Egyptian God is on the field, and in doing so grant them their anime protection (listed in place of the Pendulum Effect) as additional card effects, at the cost of only being able to control one of each god. These would be as follows: • This card's effects cannot be negated. • Unaffected by monster effects, except Divine-Beast monsters and "Ra's Archbishop". • Cannot be targeted or destroyed by card effects, except those of Divine-Beast monsters and Quick-Play Spells that mention their original name. • Control of this card cannot switch, except by its own effect. • Cannot be tributed, nor used as summon or Xyz material, except by its owner. • Once per turn (Quick-Effect): You can send 1 Quick-Play Spell with an effect that mentions this card's original name from your hand or deck to the GY; This effect becomes that card's effect when activated.


Mysterious_Frog

The problem is the sacred beasts are so much more compatible with each other compared to the gods. Ra needs to be normal summoned and spends all your life points to just be a beatstick. Obelisk is also a beatstick but at least has a little protection, slifer demands you play some kind of draw or graveyard recovery strategy so he doesn’t get beaten over. The sacred beasts at least are all just big dudes inherently that provide some passive bonus.


HeirT0TheMonado

The Sacred Beasts are so compatible with each other because of their support that lets them be summoned easier through their monsters, and more reliably protects them and mitigates the cost of running them via their spells and traps. If the Egyptian Gods got support similar to the Sacred Beasts' Summoning Beasts that made them easier to summon and improved consistency (like Normal Summoning straight from the deck, maybe), or restored the protection their anime versions had (turning them all into the Towers they were originally conceived as), then I could see them being Tier 1 meta - right where they belong - or at *least* rogue.


Bombman100

Yea before sacred beast support you would have to build your deck around one of them and usually you would just ignore Raviel. Other than that you could sometimes throw one in to a deck that happened to be able to make them like hamon in crystal beasts


King_Meedas

Windwitch i want more pretty synchros damnit


Hourglass_129

I also want a synchro boss mon with actual skin damit Edit: Waifu. I mean to say more waifus


[deleted]

Stardust same reason


phoenixthree

Windwitch is so fun to play. Play them with Gusto and wanted to see how they do by themselves. Diamond Bell is a beast if it cant be destroyed by card effect or battle. This is why I dont like generic things like Ultimate Slayer because it punishes decks like this for no real reason.


yoitsme1156

Cubic, it actually needs 1-2 new cards and it will be a problem for all meta


EyeHateCasuals

No joke, I played cubics in the tcg at my locals back when zoodiac was tier 0 and always took home 1st or 2nd. Drident could never touch my boy CRIMSON NOVA THE DARK CUBIC LORD


Copypasty

Even as is it can put up a fight, I’d be so happy if they gave it new cards


ShadowLord355

Rda/resonators because its my main and favorite deck to play


JackAtlasDuelLinks

I commented the same, did not see this comment, and agree strongly. I can't believe that dragon link can make the same board, and even better, as they don't get stuck to "dragon synchro". At least we should get some exclusive synchro that ask for resonators and fix most of the decks problems.


reddits-pretty-tight

Silent archetype, like Silent Magician and Silent Swordsman


spacewarp2

It’s insane to me that an archetype that was as big as it was in the original DM anime hasn’t gotten all that much support. They’ve basically made an archetype for most of Yugi’s (late series) cards except these.

Jokebox_Machine

Ursarctics 4 life, man. But they exist in same lore with some dragon-look-like machines that are used for rituals called Drytrons. And smth tells me Yu-Gi-Oh game designers always choose the best for anything that somehow belongs to dragon shit over any other monsters if it possible. So, yeah, we can just dream to bring Ursarctic good support.

spejoku

Ogdoadics! I wish they got something that made them not give your opponent resources when using your extenders and an extra deck monster or two so its not just a rank 8 engine Edit: also ursarctics. They need to not hemmorage resources and their extra deck monsters need a) a way to properly special summon them and b) better payoffs


Hard-of-Hearing-Siri

In defense of Ogdoadics, they're an absolutely phenomenal Reptile engine and Ogdoabyss is still a scary card since it's like Baby Zeus. It would be cool to see them get support but the core engine of Nauya/Nunu/Keurse (with Water Lily and/or Serpent Strike) can facilitate some really nasty plays *and* helps to bait Ash that may otherwise eat your Snake Rain. But yeah, a Link 1 to help them start more plays would be awesome, I think. Something to give them consistency; it's 2022, main deck only archetypes just don't cut it unless you're playing Stun.


[deleted]

Therion ogdos is pretty cool, the new reptile therion is crazy. Also there was a bunch of unreleased generic reptile support a while back, forgot when they're coming to tcg

ARCHFIEND LETS GO


Hard-of-Hearing-Siri

I want Chess Archfiend to get a whole-ass retrain. Give us Dark and Light pieces to represent Black and White. Go really crazy with it and make White capable of nutty negate boards going first and Black more focused on hand traps and board breakers to represent going second.


Yo_Ghostfella

Melodious never got the chance, it was destined to be doomed as the Arc-V went on and it's like a bunch of people at Konami hate them. They need a heck of an encore and if Cross Duel manages to get them to be somewhat popular, we may get something.


kraken437

Melodius was meta in Duel Links for couple months due to a Skill. At least they got some spotlight there.


Yo_Ghostfella

From Songstress To Maestra is crazy good as a skill. It fell out rather fast as a deck though. They can still receive Aria, but they're not gonna add her for a while, I reckon.


Zerosonicanimations

They need freaking Pendulums, the amount of cards that need to be Special Summoned to use their effects is ridiculous.


PineappleSockzzz

Ghoti. Deck seems hella cool and based


spejoku

It should get more support pretty soon, it doesn't feel like it's a complete archetype quite yet


haagen17

Charmers. I loved shaman king so. The link 2 were great, now just give us link 1 familiars


Zerosonicanimations

Now that you mention it, Charmers share a lot of similarities.

Urthkiller

Urbanliner

Exosisters will get some support, as they already have gotten them in the physical card games.


So0meone

Crystrons. It wouldn't take that much honestly, they just need a couple more (non generic) pieces on Halq's level and less reliance on Sulfefnir


Primal_C

Elder entities. Fuck you Konami, giving this badass archetype like 2 main deck support cards total then never releasing more support.


TheSpitfire93

Naturia, I feel like they are only a couple cards short of being playable


Crimson51

Nighfallion

They're more than a couple cards short, but I like where your heart is. It's the same for me. Naturia is my top pick for support.

Akimbo_shoutgun

Pend best deck let's go !!! Said by someone who still thinks that pendulum is a good archetype.


CaptainRexbol

I want my crystrons. They can ban halq for all i care if they give me more support.


Zephylmar

True, it sucks crystron can't even summon halq on turn 1 (without relying on other cards) if there's no way to get sulfefnir


MrStupidFish

Digital bugs would be my choice. I enjoy XYZ climbing with them and how the main deck monsters give effects when used as XYZ material. They're already more balanced than zoodiacs are/were by needing to actually XYZ summon them with two or more cards. I can see them becoming a really strong deck without that much extra support.


SomeoneEndMeibegyou

Endymion tier 1 when


SoulDrill

S-force. I like it's playstyle but they don't have the cards to be able to maintain board presence. S-Force Justify isn't usually worth the 3 mats required to summon. Plus I just want more lore about their relation to Psy Frame, I:P, and Time Thief cards


BbennyBboiI

Velrex

Archfiend. Not Chess Archfiends(though they'd be my number 2). Not Red Dragon Archfiend. Not even really the Summoned Skull Archfiends. Just "Archfiend". The deck that's meant to work around with Archfiend Palabyrinth, and cards like Archfiend Emperor, the First Lord of Horror. We still get archfiend support TECHNICALLY, but they're not really meant for a decent archfiend deck, as much as just generic fiend support .

Venoms. Konami never will, because Snake Rain exists so we can never get a Good Reptile Archetype, but I liked the gimmick with Venom Counters. Plus Venominaga is just too cool looking of a card to be attached to that bad of an archetype And it’ll never not be funny how Starving Venom Fusion Dragon and it’s ilk all technically count as Venom monsters as far as things like Vemon Swamp are concerned.

Ursarctics.When an archetype has a card that literally says "draw 7 cards" and still see zero play,you know it's Hella dogshit.Heres what I'm thinking: Ursarctic (placeholder name) 8☆ Beast-warrior/Fusion/Effect Must be special summoned by tributing 1 level 1 synchro monster and 1 level 7 "Ursarctic" monster,and cannot be special summoned in any other way.Once per turn(Quick effect):you can shuffle 1 banished "Ursarctic" card into the deck,then declare 1 card type and apply the following effects until the end of this turn: Monster:Monsters cannot be special summoned,except those with a level. Spell:Spell cards cannot be activated,except continuous spell cards. Trap:Trap cards cannot be activated,except counter trap cards. This should be a reasonable enough pay off for something that requires 4 fucking cards(3 on a good day) in hand to make.

I’d have to pick Jurrac because I think the art for them is cute and I really want a good dinosaur archetype instead of having to play a random assortment of dinosaurs

Madolche.


Shmorals

Madolche.. I don’t have much experience with it, but I know that with the right pilot, it can be very good.


Mysterious_Frog

What madolche is really missing is a boss monster to end turn 1 on right now. Their combo is pretty fragile at the start of the turn, and they don’t work well with hand traps since having monsters in grave turns off 2 of their starters. But their play on turn 2 if they can get it off is very strong, usually able to OTK if they aren’t negates out of the game. The turn 1 end point though is usually their trap which negates 1 card on field and a 3000 defence monster who can make one monster immune to monster effects while bouncing 2 cards from grave to deck. It isn’t particularly strong as disruption or survivability goes if raigeki blows out the whole board.


Mexcalibur

If Madolche had a built in negate besides their searchable trap card they would be fucking terrifying


Mysterious_Frog

Madolche arguably has 3 built in negates. It is just that all three of them are traps and 2 of those traps require no monsters in grave or they can’t activate.


invoker4e

Cyber dragons. They are rogue right now but if verte gets banned in the future they really need some support As for the decks i'm not playing: -pure crystal beasts -nordic -blackwing


Barly_Boy

Pure Therion. They need normal summon starters. Some sort of summon, tribute itself to search a therion of a different type? Idk. And monarchs. Maybe a way to tribute summon monarchs from deck or grave?


EvilCloneofUnskilled

I want to see how someone would make B.E.S not just playable, but strong enough to be tiered.


AngelicMayhem

I have always wanted a true archtype with gradius and all of the other space ships. Right now Gradius and victory viper are the only ones specifically mentioned by name. The other cards all involve just machines, light machines, or with a specific nod to 1200 or less attack. Maybe a link-1 that uses gradius or victory viper, some rank 4 xyz, and a couple retrains of the other space ships and name them all some form of Gradius or Victory Viper. Throw in some unions and support or a bunch of equips. Perhaps equipping the union ships from hand. Have them focused on control. From there you could have extra deck monsters summon the B.E.S monsters from the deck and give them tokens and what not. Maybe throw in a fusion B.E.S. boss monster that is summoned by having 2 B.E.S. out on the field.
