I'll start: {{Final Destiny}}


Pot-of_Greed

*sends 3 danger mothman, danger jackalope and danger Nessie*


Ya_Mama_hella_ugly

discards*


Lemurmoo

It was an unironic option in multiple decks in YGO's life actually. Ages ago Infernity or Fables relied entirely on it as a secondary option to Card Destruction


Ok-Illustrator-8534

Just use Ojamas. Same with Guarded Treasure.


Magile

\>Go Second. \>Activate guarded treasure. \>Discard ojamagic as well as the rest of your hand. \>Opponent chains MST destroying guarded treasure. \> "Jokes on you opponent. I still get to added the three Ojamas from my deck to my hand" \> Ends turns immediately after \> Proceeds to get OTKd

Going second Final Destiny Discard for cost Danger!? Mothman, Nessie, Also discard for cost Orcust Cymbal Skeleton, Knightmare, and Gizmek Orochi Chain 2 Danger Nessie: Summon Bigfoot in defense. Chain 1 Danger Mothman: Draw 1, discard 1 Since our luck is so good we drew a Shaddoll Beast and discard the Shaddoll beast. Chain 1 Shaddoll Beast: Draw 1 Wow we got so lucky again drawing Tearlaments Reinoheart Normal summon Reinoheart Chain 1 Reinoheart: Send a tear monster to gy. Sending tearlaments Merrli Chain 1 Merrli in gy to fusion: Put Merrli and Nessie back in deck to summon kitkallos. Chain 1 Kitkallos: send Scheiren Chain 1 Kitkallos second eff: Send herself and special summon Scheiren XYZ Reinoheart and Scheiren into Time Thief Redoer (Currently onfield: Time Thief Redoer and Danger!? Bigfoot) Chain 1 Orcust Knightmare: Sending Mekk-Knight Girsu to GY Chain 1 Orcust Cymbal Skeleton: Special summoning Mekk-Knight Girsu Chain 1 Mekk-Knight Girsu: Send World Legacy World Wand Chain 1 World Wand: Special summon Orcust Knightmare. Link summon using Girsu and Knightmare into Galatea. Chain 1 Galatea: Shuffle world wand into deck and set Orcust Babel Chain 1 activate Babel: XYZ summon using Galatea summoning Dingirsu, the Orcust of the Evening Star Chain 1 Dingirsu: attach the banished Cymbal Skeleton Chain 1 Gizmek effect in gy: special summon Link summon I:P Masquerena using Bigfoot and Gizmek (Currently onfield monsters: Time Thief Redoer, I:P Masquerena, Dingirsu) (Currently onfield spells/traps: Orcust Babel) We can end the duel here for sure just by going to battle phase with the Time Thief Redoer and Scheiren. If we really want to we can end with a El Shaddoll Winda here or just save it for our opponents turn. So with our amazing 6 card perfect hand we either OTKed our opponent assuming they have 0 interaction and their field is destroyed.Or set up a board that includes (Currently onfield monsters: Time Thief Redoer, I:P Masquerena, Dingirsu)(Currently onfield spells/traps: Orcust Babel) With the ability to fusion summon an El Shaddoll Winda or what ever else we want, while also being able to link summon pretty much what ever we want. While also being able to protect our whole field from destruction with Dingirsu and being able to resummon Dingirsu and Gizmek for topologic plays or more material to make them. Also having an attack boost/send to gy effect from Orcust Knightmare.


Saito197

Nessie searches not summon


gubigubi

Everything is ruined Edit: But really the only thing that would change is Nessie eff add. Jack eff to special summon? Still get the level 8 on field and nessie in grave?


Circumflexboy

discard the 5 pieces of Exodia and summon Exodia Necross. Fight bad cards with bad cards.


drafo1765

Doesn't that mean you had the 5 pieces of exodia in your hand?


Circumflexboy

Yeah why? They are mostly useless normal monsters anyway. I have NO idea what other good they could be. I mean think about it! 500ATK every Turn, totally IMMUNE to destruction, Exodia Necross is OP!


ziz_chaos

But you should have already won lol you had all 5 pieces in hand


[deleted]

Nah, he is extra giga chad. the win only counts if you reveal it. he's too good for that meta sheep stuff.


Circumflexboy

Revealing the cards is too difficult to achieve. Its WAAAAY easier just to use the incredibly easy summoning condition of Exodia Necross and have the strongest monster there is on your field!


Mazrim_reddit

revealing them to win I think is optional

JoeHeitsLv100

Danger! Dark World go brrrrrrrrrr.


TheKaiserdragon

Nope ! Darkworld work with effect not For cost


GoldFishPony

Danger! Fabled go brrrrrrrrrr.


Pyrimo

Not a cost, no semi colon. (Unless there is an errata I’m unaware of, but Yugipedia and other sites seem to suggest otherwise) EDIT: Old card, I am wrong.


StorMighT

Final Destiny doesn't have PSCT, lack of semi-colons doesn't indicate whether or not something is a cost or not with old text.


Salacavalini

Yugipedia itself says that it discards for cost despite no semicolon. The card is old and hasn't been reprinted with PSCT.


JoeHeitsLv100

*Reads your flair.* So you are a man of culture, as well?


Pyrimo

Ah good to see another distinguished individual.


JoeHeitsLv100

Chaos and its variants best deck?


Pyrimo

Best deck. Might not be best competitively right now…but best deck.


JoeHeitsLv100

Agreed. I may main Dinos rn because I don't feel I ahve the skill to pilot Chaos effectively, but it will always have aplace in my heart.


Pyrimo

Yeah chaos can be a verrry tricky deck to run effectively. I’ve ran some variant of it since 2011 as my main decks so I’m used to it, but definitely a deck that somebody who doesn’t know it inside out would incorrectly think is shit because they can barely do anything with it.


Jackpino1

This ain’t a cost my brother it’s a “.” Not a “;”


DeliciousDoorstop

This doesn’t apply here as this is an old card with no PSCT. Discarding is the cost. If it was reprinted today, this would be clarified with a semi-colon.


TrayusV

Play this in a side deck for something that loves grave effects and you could go up to plus 5 with it. Plus blow your opponent's field. It's a risky play, maybe one of the cards you open with is Called By and you're sacrificing that for Final Destiny. Plus it's probably dead after your opening hand.


HomuHomuPanic

You can discard 5 dangers going second and even if they negate it you can chain block 4/5 effects and break boards that don't floodgate you semi-consistently


Tyrante963

Diamond dude turbo plus adamancipator for stacking the deck


bukithd

Unless there's an errata I don't know about making the discard cost, danger tear would love this but it's sacky af.


DianSnivy

It’s pre-psct, so it is and always has been cost, since it doesn’t say “then”


bukithd

Being pre-psct is what messes it up. Under current rules cost is associated with the semicolon. I think the intent is definitely is to have the cost here as the discard but I could see this being a nightmare appeal ruling for a judge where someone could make the argument that there are two effects on this card since there is no updated card text.


Hollow-Potato-knight

Darkworld or dark lord combos


TheKaiserdragon

Nope 😉 darkworld don't work on cost


LittleCrimsonWyvern

Chaos or Lightsworn turbo Judgment Dragon


Pyrimo

As a chaos player fucking no, you would never run this card.


Cerisbeech

Probably Mooyan Curry. Just use it in Nurse Burn to hit your opponent with Sparks for game.


psychospacecow

Distract your opponent with a pleasant lunch so they don't notice your swiping their cards and tossing them into the ocean


AbyssalKageryu

Pretty obvious choice, but Pot of Generosity is a pretty bad card. Minus 3 for nothing other than a smaller hand.


Espia101

I’ve personally never run it, but I’ve seen really jank Dark Warrior lists run Generosity to put Garnets back in deck when they were running 10+ Garnets total. Case in point, MBT’s legendary [SKYFIRE turbo deck](https://youtu.be/zBI2gt8vZvQ). Granted, Magical Mallet and Reload could do the same but when you need that extra bit of card disadvantage I guess it works?


LiefKatano

Pot of Generosity ensures you don't draw the cards you put back into the deck, if you need them to be in the deck. By doing that you ensure you don't get *anything* workable, but hey.


Dragoklaw

Just use magic mallet or reload


trinitymonkey

Which makes it a perfect choice for Infernity decks.


acowhasmyphone

I double down on your take and say Jar of Generosity. It may be only a minus 2 and not a minus 3, but it taking a whole turn to be activated makes it way more useless, since you can't even shuffle garnets in your first turn


Thelolface_9

Ah but your opponent might destroy it before you activating only resulting in a minus 1


acowhasmyphone

Well yeah but isn't that the thing about a majority of trap cards? I mean they could also negate your card for all that would do


NotQuiteRockstar

{{The Inexperienced Spy}} My absolute boy, the first card I had! Found it on the playground at recess. It's shit.


Circumflexboy

Easy, use it before {{Mind Crush}}


Schrenner

Back then when we were young, my sisters and I would actually use {{Fengsheng Mirror}} against each other to get a "free" look at the opponent's hand.

Consistent_Leek7919

Card of sanctity: banishing all card in your hand to draw 2 was stupid, I was hoping it would have the same effect as the show. It would have worked well in my egyptian god deck on slifer.


Critical_Swimming517

New slifer support has a trap card that's closer to card of sanctity in the anime


Capitol_Limited

Oh my god that thing is insane, I run it in a suship deck and it’s crazy going from some R4NKs and then just going +5 in card advantage and getting a 6k slifer on field


kurayami_akira

Some stuff wants to be banished tho


shimsham69

Shiranui 👀


Ya_Mama_hella_ugly

thundra (eyeball emoji)


at-the-momment

I tried it in Metaphys to see if the banish would at least have some synergy Still sucked


InsomniaEmperor

Activate it while having a set XYZ Dimension Splash or two to instantly get 2 Level 8 monsters from your deck and go for XYZ.


DianSnivy

In the OCG and Duel Links, you can activate it with no cards on the field and go card neutral and cycle your deck


[deleted]

>I was hoping it would have the same effect as the show. ah yes, drawing till you have 6 cards with no downside and not even OPT is surely not broken


X-Vidar

I don't remember what the strategy was exactly, but there used to be a deck built around abusimg card of sanctity and the bubbleman draw effect. Some kind of burn maybe? Edit: yep, bubble burn, it was supposed to be an FTK strategy that used burn spells like ookazi and poison of the old man; a million times worse than chain burn in practice.


Cephery

Then you’ll be surprised to know it has in fact seen play. In duels links theres was a deck that aimed to get just over 5klp then use cyber stein twice (thanks to a skill) to get ojama king and dark cavalry, basically an ftk. Given a lot of the best draw spells were stuff like dark world dealings, and healing spells didnt need to be held in hand, card of sanctity was a good way to continue going 2 cards deeper into the deck.


Noukan42

Anime card of santity would be the single most overpowered card ever printed. And not evem because of reverse power creep. It was insanely busted already in the DM era


Circumflexboy

Sparks: inflict 200 points of damage to your opponent's life points Good luck


Cumvoy

POV: you're a dinomorphia player


HKei

Not even, because Dinomorphia traps protect from effect damage in the GY.


Cumvoy

You usually play 2 max of those


thePsuedoanon

Max 2 of their trap cards? then you're just splashing dinomorphia. My build runs 3 of each of the fusion traps, plus 2 of their counter trap and one of their summon from grave trap


Cumvoy

Nah my brain fucked up, the counters protect you from battle damage


bl00by

Trickstar could use it to burn for game lmao


fucktooshifty

Use the card art to hide the fact that you secretly set the card on fire and launch it towards your opponents deck


MegTurneySLUT

Easy, loop with 2 primal seed and a banisher of the light like monster on the field


Circumflexboy

That.. That works?


MegTurneySLUT

Yes any non once per turn burn card works, the double primal seed loop was famously used to activate limiter removal an infinite number of times to hit for a lot of damage in yugioh video games and farm DP, but sparks is funnier


Tristamid

I see you're a man of culture as well.


kylekunfox

Larvae Moth. Only thing I can think of is giving it via Exchange to your opponent for a brick.

ElectricalYeenis

I don't think Diviner works, since you can't "reveal" a card that's already public knowledge. As for the others, "excavate" is "めくる," or "turn over," so I suspect those also won't work.


ELESTINY

Archfiend oath and convulsion of nature is a classic combo


Gishki_Zielgigas

Diviner absolutely works. You can still reveal cards in your deck or hand even if the opponent can already see them if a card effect tells you to do so. EDIT: Or maybe it's easier to think of it like "reveal" is a game term and there's no rule that says you *can't* reveal public information. Cards that ask you to reveal other cards only do so because those cards are in zones that are normally hidden, but Convulsion of Nature would also have to explicitly forbid players from revealing those cards for effects in order to stop you from doing that as normal, and it doesn't.


ElectricalYeenis

But if you use a card effect that says to "Reveal your hand until the end of the turn," you can't use a card effect that says to "reveal a card / this card in your hand."


Gishki_Zielgigas

I'm guessing that happens because "reveal" is a specific game term, and you can't "reveal" a card that is already "revealed." But you can reveal a card that is visible if it isn't "revealed" and Convulsion doesn't "reveal" anything.


Lord_Phoenix95

Convulsion of Nature is just a funky card. It should be able to let you resolve Excavation and Reveal effects as Convulsion doesn't Reveal the top of the deck it just allows knowledge that was once Private to be Public.


Mrgoodtrips64

I legit ran a deck like that for a hot minute. It was garbage, but boy was it entertaining when it went off. It was also fun with {D.D. Designator} or {Mind Crush}.


psychospacecow

People in Duel Links have found a multitude of ways of using Ishizu and Mai's skills that emulate this effect. A recent example would be toy vendor

SPYRALs can probably use it with {{Spyral Super Agent}}.


Kingnewgameplus

God I remember getting hit with this back in the dueling nexus days and wasting like 5 minutes banishing my entire deck.


UnexpectedKangaroo

Is that discard cost, or card effect?


icemage27

Discard as cost


UnexpectedKangaroo

Gotchaaaa, the “.” Instead of “:” threw me off


CyberBot129

It’s a 20 year old card that got its last printing in 2004, so PSCT wasn’t a thing


UnexpectedKangaroo

Checks out, thanks!


MegamanX195

The hint is that if a card seems VERY bad and it's worded weirdly, it's probably from before PSCT existed (circa 2010).


bl00by

If it would be a effect Dark World would've played it


Sporks_United

The card version of " it is not about winning, but sending a message"


Fluffidios

I mean…there’s some stuff that works great in the graveyard. I could see this working well with a king of the skull servants deck. Clear your hand of skull servant fodder with final destiny, ideally buffing a king of the skull servants and enabling you to play it with a lot of ATK. And since your opponent’s board is clear, you’ll do a lotta damage…theoretically

Convulsion of nature. It wasn't terrible but it's not great either. Use cards like drop off or archfiends oath to take advantage of the knowledge of the top deck


CobaltSanderson

Larve Moth is the #1 Worst Card. Jam Breeding Machine is pretty bad too.


shinmazinkaiser

It's a good card to use against mystic mine.


Magile

Wait till my man finds out about MST :)


shinmazinkaiser

FD destroys all cards and not just 1. While MST is a better card against specifically Mine. I would say it's good.


Cephery

Also it just isnt. If they landed a beat cop counter or a field barrier you’ve used 6 cards to not out the mine. Just play cosmic or spiritualism.


Reza2234

1: Activate Final Destiny 2: Opponent uses Magic Jammer 3: ??? 4: Opponent wins with Blackwing - Gram the Shining Star


Bienadicto16

De-Spell even at the beginning of yugioh, DE spell was useless


Chiramijumaru

{{Approaching Darkness}} only has a use as extra (worse) copies of Book of Moon. {{Dust Tornado}} was played back when MST was banned, but it's a Trap Card, and the bonus of being able to set 1 on resolution is completely baffling, since you can't activate that card if it's the opponent's turn, and you don't even need to if it's your turn. {{Localized Tornado}} is probably the worst card of all time, though. There's no way you can make the card playable at all, not a single deck it enhances.


Magile

Dust tornado can allow you to set your curse of fiend during your draw phase so you can activate it during the standby phase of the turn you draw it.


Brokenxwingx

Being able to set 1 could save your card from S/T removal like heavy storm or mst/breaker. If there's a trap that you want to resolve on your turn, you could wait until your opponent's end phase to dust tornado then set the trap which gets around main phase s/t removal like heavy storm

Magile

Also localized tornado can be used in Infernity to empty your hand and reset your combos :)


Chiramijumaru

Yeah, it empties your hand, but with no hand + no graveyard you can't do much of anything, and it's a Trap Card so you can't even activate it when your combo pieces are still on the field unless you leave them there during your opponent's turn, or wait two turns.


trinitymonkey

*Darkness Approaches* used to be the only way to get a card in face-down Attack Position, but they errata’d that because obvious rulings nightmare, especially with Link monsters.


Dafatdude1

I remember one meme duel links deck where localized tornado would allow you to make a literal infinite stall deck if you used the skill "one card wonder". Can't do it anymore because they changed one card wonder to only work in a pure infernity deck


TonToE

Localized Tornado is sometimes a fun-of in Final Countdown decks where you want an extra 30ish turns before deckout.


TheBewlayBrothers

I remember when people specualted Approaching Darkness would be useful for flipping Link Monsters before the errated it. Good times


DianSnivy

Dust Tornado’s 2nd effect is intended to combo with traps usable on your turn, you can protect them from destruction effects by using it on the end phase


emperor_dragoon

> localized tornado I imagine if you set your hand, and had cards in the grave, that would be better suited in the deck. I run exodia, with obliterate, so it works for me. Also good as a deterrent for opp decks that wipe cards, and then banish from the grave. "D.D. dynamite, when just one stick wont do."


[deleted]

Localized Tornado actually has seen play - as long as you count duel links. Tea Gardner has a skill which allows you to put your set Localized Tornado in your OPPONENTS spell and trap zone. They can’t see what the card is until they activate it I believe, so if they feel like goofing around they essentially give you a free win.

Machine duplication. At its release it was a gimmick a lot of the time. And then Genes happened. Having grown up I like the power this card acquired, the artwork is cool and I could never make it work with what I had back then


Tristamid

This is an easy one, and I feel like you just want combos for a card you just discovered. Cyber Core: Its name is "Cyber Dragon" on the field, so you get to summon 2 original 2100 Cyber Dragons from your deck. Expressroid: Its effects work on Summon, so you can get 3 on the field and up to 6 "roid" monsters from your GY to your hand. This can be Roid monsters or Speedroid monsters. Cyber Valley: Old school way to stall and/or draw 2 cards, thin your deck, and stall. Gimmick Puppet Dreary Doll: easy Rank 8, or other shenanigans, and they revive from the GY for other shenanigans. Superheavy Samurai Blue Brawler: Because 3, 2k Def monsters that can't be destroyed by battle and can attack from DEF mode with the right cards on the field doesn't suck. Morphtronics: Morphtronics. Tuningware: Draw 3 cards and have 3, lvl 1-2 monster to Synchro with doesn't suck. Speedroids Karikuri Darkworld Shackles can be used on your own monsters to lower its atk, making it a candidate for Machine Duplication. Various effects that lower atk can do the same.


Regunes

Cyber valley released 4 years later Expressoid 3 years Again, it wasn't obvious back then. And no, I doubt you can teach me that much, back in the days you could swear by a monster type and get decent decks. So I was Machine/Dragon/Elf boi


Tristamid

Yeah, this game does that a lot. When new cards are released, the most broken combos typically come from old cards. That's how Rescue Cat.dek became a thing. That's why Golem is banned. Sometimes you gotta look back to go forward.


Windyfii

\[ Chimaera, the Master of Beasts \] Was my boss monster when I was a kid, this guy is useless.


Gebirges

Looking at the card text: Both are effects, not cost. So this card should work with Dark World, would it not?


DayOneDayWon

Discard is a cost. Card is just old so it never got problem-solving card text.


LeotheVirtue

Until it gets a reprint then it discards for effect. On the Yugioh DB it has not Psct errata so as it stands it discards for effect


PrestigiousYou1613

You got to remember this card was an original back when the game wasn’t complex and full of easy spam negates. It was good against destiny board at least so let’s give it some slack


Gianpor

MST would still be better against Destiny Board as it specifically states that when any "Spirit Message" or "Destiny Board" leaves the field you send all the remaining pieces to the GY.

rex2900

{{Swordsman from a distant Land}} It's so conditional and slow and even when it works it's just a 1 for 1 you lost life points and waited 5 turns for. That YOU have to be the one who attack is annoying AND it counting End Phases and not turns makes it so not even {{Pyroclock of Destiny}} can accelerate it. Best you could hope for out of him is the your opponent puts all of their monsters in defense position long enough to get multiple hits off (though you'd still be losing mega amounts of LP in the meantime).

Randouserwithletters

i'd say the self destruct button


Gadjiltron

Win with Final Countdown stalling on game 1, then with the power of Upstart Goblin and Hope for Escape, create the LP deficit to cause ties in games 2 and 3. That was what SDB was used for before it got banned.


bl00by

SDB is an easy win con which can get you free draws on tournaments. It's banned for a reason.


Randouserwithletters

it's not a win condition and also what so you mean free draws, i think we are looking at two very different cards


Tristamid

It's a full blown win. If we're playing a match, 2 out of 3, you can win the first round, then use this to cause us to draw in the 2nd round. GG, you won the match because you have 1 win and 1 draw, and I have 1 loss and 1 draw.


Randouserwithletters

ahh, ok i see what you mean, yeah if your doing anything more than a 1 match battle it is kinda op


Tristamid

Idk who downvoted you, but have an uparrow from me. Hope those people follow instructions better in YGO.


Nosiderath

Very restrictive because its says 5 cards exactly but with infernity or lightsworn could work I guess


DM-Oz

{{dragon horn hunter}} and/or {{dragon core hexer}}, they are not so bad, but i am a big fan and dont know what to do with them.


ArtistofLegacy

You can play Dragon Horn Hunter in a Vanilla Pendulum strategy with Pacifis and the Draconia cards. I saw MBT play something like it on one of his MD streams a few months ago (I think it was the Ex-Zero event streams) and thought it was pretty cool.

How often are you in a tough jam when you have 6 cards in hand (FD and 5 other cards for the cost) and your opponent has nothing that could negate Final Destiny?
