Quick update! I should've clarified, but more trap heavy Labrynth builds are going to be fine against Tenpai! More monster heavy lab deck are going to be weaker. My bad! EDIT: Other cards that are also good and have been brought to my attention 1. Simul Archfiends

Other good option for siding against this deck is Black Goat Laughs. Can use it as a set card to limit their damage output and keep them from special summoning. Calling Chundra is generally the best option since that keeps them from getting a tuner, or if they've already normal summoned it, you can call one of their synchro monsters and limit the damage output. Grave effect allows you to banish it and negate a monster's effects with that name for the turn. Multiple targets that vary depending on game state. Can't use the on field and grave effects in the same turn, so pick your poison, unless you're a Lab player and have rollback in the graveyard.

Another counter that no one seems to be considering is Zombie World or Clockwork Night, as long as your deck doesn't care about types. Bident Dragion, Transcend Dragion, and Trident Dragion all require dragons as materials. Bident can't target a dragon in grave, Green can't target a dragon in grave, and Red can't use its hand eff to summon if Zombie World / Clockwork Night is active. They would need to open LS/Duster/Cosmic to beat them or it forces them to make something like Kuibelt which is a generic Lvl 7 synchro that pops a card on summon, but they would still need access to Kaimen to continue extending and OTK there.

Nightingale is interesting. The other thing about Snake Eyes is their common endboards, assuming they get that far often have a way of answering the field spell whether that’s dis prater popping it, or hot red dragon archfiend negating it or if they can pull it off SP can just banish it…then Tenpai has to compete with a large array of hand traps themselves.

Lyrulisc assembled nightingale is better because the top meta decks ALL make at least 2 level 1 monsters and you don't have to worry about starting with it in hand or hard placing it with Beatrice and transaction rollback, which is still 4000 damage just to use to avoid damage. Lyrulisc is a simple card to make, pass turn, in draw phase activate its effect, and unless they have an effect vieler or imperm on hand, you live that turn, and can even activate some gy effects like that of snake-eyes cards hitting the gy.

@jeanpitre5789

Just a curse. This literally happened within a year. Purrely is less than 2 years old and it was considered top meta on release and was a deck core of 21 cards, and that was considered insane, and even then there was still a fair bit of luck involved. Purrely can only add a purrely spell and Trap from the top three which is always a gamble. Now, enter modern format, we have 5 meta decks that have 12-18 card deck cores and can combo off with even half a card's effects, none of the effects have costs (for comparison you constantly have to discard for Purrely), none of them are based on chance (they always pull specific targets, drawing/excavating is near obsolete), they have handtrap/gy effects baked into the card to interact with anything turn 0, and they ALL have massive grindgame level recursion. It's 100% a plague and horrible game design. I'm all for promoting skillful gameplay but there is nothing skillful about decks that are functionally layered interruption on all phases of the duel and functionally unrespondable as the effects activate in areas most cards can't prevent them

@@jeanpitre5789You're right, Konami is going too far too fast. I hate the miscellaneoussurus like field spells, they are so braindead. Just perform this combo to win and don't worry, your opponent can't do anything about it. It's just the opposite of the yugioh that I love, the grindy back and forth, the interactive gameplay, until you both are down on resources and just depend on the top deck, like 2 boxers in the 10th round. That's great, this is boring. We're reaching the point where we could show each other the hand and then determine the winner. It's sad.
@jeanpitre5789

@jonanderirureta8331 it's sad because you basically need an equally braindead floodgate/stun strategy to compete against the top decks, which is why besides snake eyes the next 2 top decks are voiceless and RUNICK STUN (props to the one guy who made top 32 with runick plunder without stun. Solid gameplay). It's not fun. I started playing competitively like 8 months ago and even then the game was fairly more balanced outside of your floodgates. Multiple decks made a diverse format. Not it's not even remotely close or competitive

@@jeanpitre5789 very well said. I’m a boomer. I got back into yugioh 6 months ago, after GX ended when I was in middle school. It’s insane how this game has evolved. I completely agree that this design takes a lot of skill out of the game. Also, it’s almost like you’re punished for running non-engine, different type/attribute. Maybe this is why so many ppl run the exact same 40 card profiles. My thought was smaller engines could create more variation, but…..hand traps, like you said
@jeanpitre5789
4 ай бұрын
@cgt3rs446 I'm fine with non-engine being very niche and few between decks. It'd be ridiculous if every deck could essentially be dragon links, which evolved from dragon rulers, which was predated by dragon turbo, which was then predated by dragon beat down. My point is archetype specificity is supposed to keep certain powerful mechanics in check. The problem is these modern archetypes require fewer than 18 cards in the deck to complete the engine so the other 22+ could be literally anything and in most cases that's handtraps or related engines to double up on the toxicity (fire kings and snake eyes for example). And generic boss monsters. Promethian princess is just the newest one but many other cards predate it like accesscode, Baronne, Appilousa, and Borreload. Imagine if just ANY archetype could make Expurrely Noir and use its quick effect? That'd be broken because many decks can spam level 7s. You can still make it without purrely, but it's effect to spin cards would no longer be a quick effect which means it's hardly functional outside of archetype. This SHOULD be how cards are designed.

Would ghost mourner & moonlit chill be good against them? Seems like she could ruin a few of their combos especially if a target is destroyed. As their player would take big damage if the target were a synchro monster. Ghost mourner can't be used in the damage step, like ash blossom,etc but any time they special summon a monster is fair game, like a post attack synchro summon. All that has to happen is that the target of ghost mourner leaves the field, so synchro summoning using a target would also trigger mourner's damage effect.
