Discuss. And 1 thing : when I see someone commenting on anything by "5-card combo. Exodia is better" I'm going to hit him with the nearest hard thing. Sure, when Exodia gives instant win, it's MUCH harder to get in hand than any other combo. Unless it's really ridiculous and requires like 10 cards...

tl;dr = 5 card combos are better than Exodia

Exodia Stall is irritating as hell at school. The guy that plays it is infuriating.

Dragodia is stupid.
And Sangodia is pretty lolzy.

[Giga Hand]

When I use exodia in WC 2010, I use search cards. Deep Diver, Emissary of the Afterlife, Sangan and Gold Sarcophagus. Also stall/draw cards as filler, like Card Trader, Cyber Valley and Defense Draw.

The first ever alternate win condition, and finding a duelist with a full set in the old days was nearly impossible, since all 5 pieces were ultras, and there were like...10-15 ultras in LOB.

If Exodia was unlimited, the claim that Exodia > 5 card combos would be more realistic. Unlike most 5 card comboes, Exodia must exist only in the hand to be viable, and most combo pieces are allowed in 3s.

Works better than Lightsworns (as in it can reliably beat even the most annoying foes [as in I've tested it and it works very well]), and I didn't post the whole deck.

So, yes.

[MrCodyPwns]

The best Exodia deck i've ever played againist was not a Stall version, but an Offensive one.

It was amazing, and very consistant. If I can ever remeber the build i'll post it.

WOW STOP WITH YOUR PSYCHIC POWERS.

Seriously, I was about to make this exact thread.

OT: Exodia decks are fun for 1-2 turns. If I don't autowin from Dragodia within 2 turns, I rage quit. (:

[-Berserker-]

This guy at my locals run Saberxodia. With Final Countdown added for spice...

[s]Requires a 5 card combo. Exodia is better.[/s]
I remember when I got the set for christmas. I was really happy lol. I think I got the complete set around the time labarynth of darkness came out. I always beat my friend with it.

Man, that was back when you could have pot of greed AND witch...good times, good times.

[Zeppeli Gyro Supreme]

I tried to use an Exodia deck twice, and failed in both attempts. My friend's offensive-based Exodia deck beat it, and his Psychics decimated it. And in a local tourney, it was beat by E-Heroes.

Make a FTK Exodia deck. Everything else just seems slow after.

[Zeppeli Gyro Supreme]

I don't own a sufficient number of Spells that let me draw. And it probably didn't help I was running an Ojama build.

[Wrathos]

The most important reason that Exodia is inferior to 5 card combos is that on there own the 5 Exodia pieces are useless. Unlike other combos where the cards have individual merit. Also, certain cards can participate in more than one combo. This gives you a greater chance to draw at least one winning combination. Exodia is part of exactly one combination.

[Zeppeli Gyro Supreme]

Plus, combos can also become simplified later on in the duel, where both players have likely lost a good amount of Life Points.

[Sephiroth_The_Legend]

Exodia is only viable if it wins within Turn 1 or 2.

Any later and you will often be overpowered by the much faster, much more aggro decks

[Father Wolf]

Gustodia only needs 3 cards to win and all 3 are searchible

This basically!
Also, Gustas make it easy as said FW.

......So, in Regionals on Saturday, game 1 the dude pulled Exodia on his 2nd turn.
Game 2, I only won because he did Trade-In on Blue Eyes, I Reborn'd it and he didn't get it in time.
Game 3, he went first. I never got to have a turn. T_____T

[~British Soul~]

this is hard to pull of since all of the pieces are @1 (lols at the fact that those vanillas are limited)

[sebihp2007]

If I feel like making an Exodia Deck just for fun, I use D-Hero Plasma and Dogma, Trade-in, Allure and D-Draw; also, 3 Mallets, Broken Bamboo Sword + Golden Bamboo Sword and Magical Library. Some stalling cards to get to 40 cards.. Then, it works like this: you get Library on the field, then activate as many spells as possible. Ordinary, you either FTK (~40% of the time) or you lose

Either way, your first turn will be everlasting and it's fun to see my opponent look at me as I activate Spell after Spell and ask me "Are you done?" every time, just to tell him "Yeah, I'm done now ... Oh, by the way, here's Exodia in my hand" in the end

[~Nightshade~]

Heart of Exodia best Exodia.
