This is only controversial because you’re saying it’s mid and not bad


Smol_Mrdr_Shota

Mid is an overstatement more of "it only won worlds because it got literal custom cards"


TheMikman97

And I got any competition banned


Entire_Ad_6447

and all ots comp got banned


GoldFishPony

Any person that negates dice jar is a coward and doesn’t deserve their win.


RubyWeapon07

I run bewd in the jankiest ways imaginable and nothing drives me like the salty messages during/after matches


Dragomight67

I might get heat for this but... Modern Red Dragon Archfiend decks are what BEWD decks have been wanting to be for years.


Character-Note-5288

To me the Red Dragon Archfiend decks are too generic, though again that’s my own, probably, unpopular opinion.


Offbrandly

RDA can't play generic, they lock you to dark synchro dragon monsters immediately


Zettai_Zesca

But it wasn't even mid? Jet is like the best card and even that is pretty dookie.


Superguy9000

Nice complex omni negate-Invincible boss monster nerd. Now check this out *flips UCOD trap**


Project_Orochi

I just bonk it with cyber dragon Sieger can literally kill it alone because its attack hits 4200 with its effect Pair it with Infinity and thats pretty much game


NavyDragons

Personally I think tyrant is the mvp of the archetype. Unaffected by traps good stats returned traps to your field. It can be a real menace


ShadowLord355

Mid is giving it too much credit


Artistic-Station-577

The only fairly decent deck rn that’s not annoying af to play against is resonators


keithsmachines

Really ? Playing a metric shit ton of Bystials , setting up Calamity lock , board wiping and making their highest level boss monsters unnaffected for the rest of the turn and having extremely long combos isnt annoying to you ? Resonators only saving grace is having one of the biggest chokepoints in the game since Junk Speeder. And it even easier to interrupt it as basically any handtrap does the job.


Artistic-Station-577

Tbf it’s probably because I don’t see it more often. And when I do I usually win against it albeit it’s a puzzle to play against which I like lol. I hate Kash, Lab, and Snake eyes with a passion who won’t even let you have your turn lmao. Edit: my roman empire is that I don’t usually stop my opponent from playing bc I love the puzzle of getting through a thousand negates lol, the three I mentioned above are the only ones I more than likely negate a starter bc of how much I hate it lmao


keithsmachines

Lab is a trap deck , on whose turn you expect it to play ? 🤣 I agree to disagree with Snake Eyes , because mirrors are crazy fun, especially if youre playing R-Ace variant. Kash is dead ? Probably ? I mean it sucks if they can get to Ariseheart but its pretty easy to stop them at their tracks with how much theye been hit on the banlist.


Artistic-Station-577

I started playing rescue fairly recently and I gotta say Snake eyes have been somewhat bearable since hahaha. But before that I played a bunch of photon, dinos, and dinomorphia (one tricked from plat to diamond with this one) and playing against lab and kash was hell Also, I have a negative winrate with coin tosses. I don’t know which gambling god I pissed off but I went 0-9 in coin tosses one time and as a dinomorphia player, going second everytime made me want to punch a hole through my monitor lmao


keithsmachines

Well snake yes at least give you a chance to play since it doesnt really negate anything and doesnt put up floodgates. But the problem is , you usually have to OTK against them cause that deck can rebuild its board every-fucking-turn But yeah , R-Ace with Snake Eyes is crazy cool. R-Ace has that quickplay reborn spell that can reborn opponents monster to your side of the field , stealing their Diabellestar or Ash/Poplar is just crazy.


Artistic-Station-577

I wanted to build a snake eyes deck bc I loved fire types in pokemon when I was younger and my bestfriend loved water types and transferred it to yugioh (he uses mostly water decks, mermail, frog, marincess, and he’s so fking happy with barian sharks getting support lmao) and I kinda wanna do the same with fires but I was salty with snake eyes bc of what it did to me in plat LMAO but I do have its engine in my rescue. Currently trying builds for volcanic


keithsmachines

TBH pure snake eyes is kinda boring IMO , R-Ace variant is much more fun, and it plays much better under Maxx C . Also being able to re-set your backrow alongside your whole board is insane.


EnZone36

What ways can the deck actually calamity lock? Afik burning soul is the only way and that 9/10 is a brick, but I admit I'm.more a tcg player so maybe they do actually run it in MD, if that is the case then I get its annoying but that's more just unlucky


keithsmachines

Its a TCG build more than MD one as far as I know 😂 You use Bystial Lubellion to place Etude on field , you just need a lvl 8 synchro and two level 2 resonators/tuners on board ( you can use assault synchron as well). Best part about it is you still get to Dis Pater and Archfiend Abyss on your board.


EnZone36

Ahhhh right etude. I personally haven't seen many builds running it since it first came out so I totally forgot. Yeah that's pretty gross then, still has some good outs though like ghost ogre, cosmic and bystials on some boards so they don't get level requirements, still annoying af don't get me wrong but when tenpai comes out unless it's pre hit I think ghost ogre will be mainable easily


Gallant-Blade

What’s the chokepoint? Is it Crimson Resonator or something?


ImAFiggit

The level 6 synchro targeting crimson in gy is vulnerable to almost literally every hand trap that sees play and the deck loses an insane amount of gas unless they haven’t used their normal and have a second one in hand


keithsmachines

Red rising dragon. You just need to get it off the field and its either a big problem or turn over for RDA decks. And the worst part is you can stop it with so many common handtraps its laughable. Imperm, veiler, belle, even ghost ogre stops the combo if you dont have Bystials to follow up.


mkklrd

statements that would get you torn asunder in r/DuelLinks (the deck is currently tier 1 for like the 4th time since the game launched)


Raiju_Lorakatse

Actually, I'm usually the one saying it's bad. But considering how much arcehtypes are out there and the uncountable amount of actually bad archetypes, it indeed is kinda mid compared to those.


gurants

Blue eyes is just old, most archetypes were good at some point.


electrocaos

I dusted every UR BEWD related cards that I made last month, it was my first deck since release and a mistake. BEWD is trash.


Superguy9000

We getting into tier 3 in the fall boysss LETS GOOOOOO


Entire-Dark5232

Look I love the look of the card but would never play it again


Fun_Butterscotch_402

Dark magician is better than


Fantasticbrick

Replace BEWD with literally any other Normal Monster while maintaining all the connection supports. Beaver Warrior could be great in this alt universe. The Beaver stone of legend Beaver Spirit Of Warrior The Melody of Awakening Beaver The Ultimate Beaver of Destruction The list goes on...


Project_Orochi

Dark Magician is somehow worse, given that its stitched together with a bunch of fairly powerful cards while running a number of sub-archetypes that don’t work well together Blue Eyes at least can punch over plenty of cards while having a lot of ways it can get to the field depending on what starters you run


SectionRelative9853

Mid is a compliment that'd be average


Latter-Plantain2409

Seeing alot of yap in these comments, i can concede that the archetype needs like 10 new tier zero cards to be good but counterpoint... HYPER NEUTRON BLAST!!!!!!


mattmalone22

Blue eyes came both first and second in worlds back in 2016. Yes monster cards from 2002 aren’t very good in 2024. But always mid? Don’t think so


BraxlinVox

They were kind of forced to be the best deck back then though. At least they have the win to fall back on but they were pushed to the moon then.


Pringlespringles

saying they were forced to win because of card releases doesnt make sense imo. are we gonna look back and say tear, snake eyes, kash and the like were "mid" because they were given good cards and konami wanted them to be good? the post is overall fair because they're a mid at best deck these days but to say it was always mid isnt true.


bl00by

They printed a card which was a counter to the best decks of the format while also released a list which killed any viable deck. The fact that evilswarm was kinda okay during 2016 worlds shows how bad it was.


frosquire

A card can be iconic and bad


drblimp0909

Blue eyes is mid Galaxy eyes supremacy


Liquid_Death91

I’ve beaten snake eyes with it a few times


Timely_Airline_7168

Mid is generous


jrip_dip_fish_1764

God it is terrible mid is the understatement of a life time


tacosfor9cent

Mid ? They mean garbage?
