Bringerofcake Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 This thing vanished off the face of the game. It's got its niche in Scraps and Fire Kings and I've seen it run in Burning Abyss, but I feel like it got power-creeped out. Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 It is getting worse and worse as non-destruction removal gets better and better. Also, you forgot to mention how sweet it is in Yang Zing, post yazi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Polo Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 For some reason yang zings are no longer played, despite the fact that they can easily win duels. (unless matched against Shaddolls or Qliphorths) This can lead to amazing pluses with yangzies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slinky Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 For some reason yang zings are no longer played, despite the fact that they can easily win duels. (unless matched against Shaddolls or Qliphorths) This can lead to amazing pluses with yangzies. They were never played to begin with. Their match-up ratios are absolutely horrendous, and cry to a single Abyss Dweller. Baxia and Yazi are really the only reasons to play them (because as I said before, Abyss Dweller is near-instant GG). And Baxia is difficult to get out without the usage of Jiaotu (a monster that is literally just asking to be BTS'd/Veilered). Yazi suffers the same problem but is used differently than Baxia, but unlike Baxia, Yazi can actually protect himself AND deal with threats at the same time. If Yang Zing actually manage to go off, they have a high chance of winning, but with the current decks in the meta, a defensive playstyle deck that near-fully relies on your opponent's actions isn't going to get far especially since non-destruction removal is getting abundant again. So actually going off is significantly harder than it was when they were first released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
玄魔の王 Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 The otherr day I went against a Yang Zing Deck and he got 3 of these out early game. I won by making him deck himself out. Though he made it happen by using Yazi's effect when he had 2 cards left in his deck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So actually going off is significantly harder than it was when they were first released. 1) "asking to be veilered / BTS'd" you are reffering to those cards as if they live and return to the extra deck for random use. In case you run veiler, you run it at @1 or @2. The chance they'll veiler it is slim, if you run it at all. but you don't. the same retarded argument can be said on any card. On the other hand, jiaotu is a very easy combo to pull off, granting you a Trap proof synchro that spins the field when summoned. pathetic right? 2)Cry to abyss dweller, that's correct but still, I've played Yangzies against so many abyss dwellers, they don't win anyone a duel and if you try hard enough you can just wait till they waste their materials or ya know, same argument as before just solemn them right? (if that argument still works for you.) Non-destruction removal is common but not that much, every duel you face it a little but it's not so bad.

(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted October 27, 2014 Report Share Posted October 27, 2014 Yes, in regards to Yang Zings, the dweller argument is silly, since it dows similar things to shaddolls. In any case, I was not mentioning yang zings as a competitive deck. I only brought them up as they are a commonly used deck, at least in the DN scene. Much more commonly used than the already mentioned scraps and fire kings. Tl;dr: yang zing aren't good, but that fact has nothing to do with why I mentioned them.
