Do you have what it takes to become a "Goblin Biker"? | New archetype discussion - PHANTOM NIGHTMARE (PHNI)

Long ago, a theme called "Purrely" was created. Everything was fun and light until "Purelily" became "Expurrely Noir". Your heart is suddenly filled with rage as you're unable to get rid of it. It gets even worse as your friend tells you "just draw the out". You tried searching for answers on the internet and it ended getting negated by "Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring", just like your hopes and dreams.

A few months later, an elite group called "Goblin Biker" was formed which specializes on stealing XYZ materials. Filled with determination, you decided to join the group and pay the miscellaneous fees. "Do you have what it takes to become a 'Goblin Biker'?", said Goblindberg. "Aye aye", you uttered. The training begins and your first task is to meet your squad. 

Welcome to your journey on becoming the newest "Goblin Biker" in PHANTOM NIGHTMARE. Please head to the meeting room!

[SR05] Structured Deck Rawwrrr!! : The Review

                Hey, Guys! Arcknight here and man, it's been 3 months since I wrote my last article (I'll check later as it's probably two xD) but I'm back and will share some of my thoughts regarding the new cards that caught my interests and for sure yours as well. 


Been busy with work recently (top performer lol) but I still managed to keep up with the meta by reading card game news and weekly decklists. One way I do to stay in the loop is playing the famous mobile game called "Duel Links". I've been playing this game since it started during my free time and I must say I'm pretty hooked right now and I know that most of you who plays this game know the feeling especially when you pull up a shiny card by using the gems you gain with all your sweat (Yeah, I know the feeling F2P. It's worth it!)

Going back to the cards that interests me, what do you think of the new 6 cards that will release in the upcoming September Structured Deck R: Surge of Divine Light [SR05] ?

Well for those who are left by the last trip of train, here they are:

(RespectYGOcardOFtheDay) "Shining Shimmering Purple Centaur" and the decks you can use it with-"Shinki Saintorea" card discussion

             (ArcKnight) Hey! Arc is back! Today,I am going to feature a new card on "The Secrets of Eternity" booster pack(SECE) that is bound to be released next week!

             Set 904 will give us another reason to love our rank 2 based decks(or whatever deck that can make rank 2s).This time,Konami brought us a new Flying centaur that everyone will surely love!
Here is the card:

SECE-JP052
Shinki Saintorea
Light/Beast-Warrior / Xyz / Effect
RK2 2000/0
2 Level 2 monsters
(1) This card with Xyz Materials cannot be destroyed by battle. (2) At the end of the damage step that this card battled an opponent’s monster: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; return that opponent’s monster to the hand.

 Oh! This is a sweet 2000 attacker that can bounce a monster?
What else can you ask for?And besides,this is the first 2k attacker rank 2 monster and we don't have that much.Looking closer,this monster is indestructible by battle.Meaning,you can battle your opponent's monster on your turn then you can now remove a threat like "Evilswarm Ophion".This is also one of the strongest rank 2 monster that is not only focused on pure offense but also on defense!

Here are some of the decks that you can splash "Shinki Saintorea"

1.)Frog Monarch
"Des Croaking this 2014"
Frog monarch is a popular deck way back 2008 and one of the top picks of usual players on a budget because of its versatility and surprise factor.Before,the focus of this deck is to farm your "Treeborn Frogs" and "Ronintoadin" then tributing them to summon the very powerful "Monarchs" such as "Caius,the Shadow Monarch" and "Raiza,the Storm Monarch".Now,even without your "Monarchs",you can make an offensive move by using "Shinki Saintorea".You can use your "Swap Frogs" and "Ronintoadin" as the main materials for this xyz monster.This new xyz monster will serve as another boss monster for this deck.

2.)Baby Raccoons

Did you miss them? Or should I say,"Did you ever played Raccoons before?" .Do you want to turn your baby raccoons into beastly flying centaurs? Oh yes! definitely! With the advent of "Obedience Schooled" and "Valeryfrown,the Mythical Beast of the Forest",you can get your engine going faster.With "Shinki Saintorea", you are now entitled to have your monster removal after establishing your "Sandayu,Beast lock".Just be warned,you cannot special summon "Shinki Saintorea" after you use the effect of "Obedience Schooled" because it only allows you to summon "Beast" monsters the turn you used it so you better use your spent "Tantan,the Baby Raccoon" or "Ponpoko,the Baby Raccoon" so you can summon Saintorea.

3.)Prophecy

"Hey! I have a magical idea!" -Spellbook Magician of Prophecy

Your favorite spellcaster deck has a new toy to play with! Sometimes,you opt to use your "Spellbook of Fate" to eliminate your opponent's pesky monster that is hindering your play and with only "Spellbook Magician of Prophecy" sitting on your field doing magic tricks,you are susceptible to attacks therefore you are prone to heavy damage.Now,you can overlay your spent Spellbook Magicians to summon a monster that cannot be destroyed by battle at the same time and bounce an opposing monster.This is a good counter vs. Thunder king Rai-oh or Big beaters.But before you make your shinka plays,be warned because it is a beast-warrior and not a spellcaster monster.Still,it is a good card to pile on your extra deck.

4.)Malicevorous

"Now we have something to cook"-Malicevorous

Oh! Malicevorous! Our master "Dark Mist" would be so proud! Have you ever thought about them? Honestly? Well,let me just remind you.Malicevorous is a Fiend-type archetype composed of all level 2 monsters that can swarm using their effects.Before,their main focus is to summon "Number 96:Dark Mist","Gachi-Gachi-Gantentsu" and other know rank 2s.Today,they can now do some killing.(using their knives?).Interesting deck to use our powerful xyz!

And last but not the least!

5.)Agent Fairies
credits to Fanboygaming.com for the photo
There's a new reason to pay 500.Your "Mystical Shining Balls" and "Agent of Mystery-Earth" can now be utilized to produce this new rank 2 xyz monster.Other than "Master Hyperion",they don't have other sources of monster removal in a form of monster card.Now,they can summon "Shinka Saintorea" if their "Hyperion" plays fails.







Nonetheless,this card deserve some love due to the usefulness of this card.Definitely it is a card worth using.Actually when I saw the art of this card,I have a feeling that they will make a "Shinka" archetype.Isn't it cool to have a deck full of different colored flying centaurs? for me it's amazing and whoever conceptualized this card is eloquent!
Stay tune for more exciting news and reviews about the game we love!
Together,let's all RespectYGO!!

"Are you willing to take the Risk?"-Single Card Discussion featuring "Cyber Stein"

(Arc Knight) Hello! Time for some interesting article.Today,I am going to tackle about a card that has recently been released from the banlist and returned to its unlimited status.Without further ado,I present to you "Cyber Stein"

Cyber Stein
Dark/Machine/2
700/500
Pay 5000 Life Points. Special Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Fusion Deck to the field in Attack Position.

At first,this card is a very strong card until you realized that you need to pay a measly 5000 life points and leave a weak 700 attacker behind.Well,your probably right but the great thing here is the monster you will summon by its effect and that makes him great.
This monster is also prone to negation(Effect Veiler,Breakthrough Skill,Fiendish Chain) so be warned.





Here are some of the monsters you can summon with this card:

 Naturia Extrio

-This beast negates every Spell and trap card as long as it stays.That means no Qliphort tool,Necloth rituals etc. This practically end games if you manage to protect your life points due to stein.












 Last Warrior from another Planet

-Use Stein to summon a monster that destroys your stein so you won't be open for heavy damage at the same time,prevents any kind of summon!(Though players may still normal set).You know what that means.











Overall,this card is very great if you can use it correctly.
I just wanted to ask you a question.Are you willing to take the risk?

What does "Valmonica" need to become Meta? | Future Support Discussion

Heya~ Arcknight here! I was reviewing some of the new themes that came out recently and I came across one of the most interesting themes I still couldn't figure: that is "Valmonica". I figure that I need to tackle this archetype and I always wonder, what kind of support will it get that can maximize its potential?

Join me in this journey while we cope all together on what "Valmonica" could get potentially in the future sets!
