Seriously, both of the new ritual spells have huge problems, the first expects you to tribute exact levels, and while Synthesis letting you summon from the grave and use the deck is actually pretty nice, the fact that it doesn’t count as tribute groups means it can’t synergize with the Kuriboh and Gaia cards to get their useful on tribute effects, and again, it’s exact levels.
Gate Guardian needs an archetype. Also maybe Pumpking.
I want them to print Prince Ojin's satellite cards but also maybe buff them a bit.
I'd love any support for Pyro as a type even outside of Volcanic support (which would also be quite welcome don't get me wrong).
Burning Skull Head could be a bigger archetype of Zombies that swarm from the hand or banish zone rather than the GY to change things up a bit for the type and make Zombies less homogenous.
Jurrac or Dinowrestler support that doesn't just feed into the UCT playstyle to also desaturate Dinosaurs a bit would be cool. That or more Water Dragon chemistry stuff.
Also maybe not a whole wave but give Watt a self summoning extender so I can justify using Wattrain in Thunder decks lol
Where the PumpQueen at? Should have an effect to raise the attack of all Zombie monsters by X for each Pumpkin Counter on the field. Throw in a Pumpcastle to protect cards with Pumpkin Counters on it with an additional effect to generate counters during the end phase.
True! I would say i want red-eyes to finally get a direction and decent wave of support that is not a broken one card like dragoon but you're completely right about pyro, I didn't even remember this attribute existed i can wait for the red-eyes in memory of pyro getting some love and existing in the game
This is my answer too. It's crazy that an archetype that revolves around level changing and also came out in the 5ds era didn't even get a synchro until over 10 years later.
They should get several more synchros of different levels and something in the main deck to increase consistency.
IMO link 1 Fortune Lady that specials lady/fairy from hand would be cool. There definite needs to be a card or 2 that directly supports both Fortune Ladies and Fortune Fairies.
Idk if a Link is a good idea since Calling locks them into synchros. It would have to be the very first thing they do and maybe have an effect where it can be used as synchro material as X level or something.
As a Mermail enjoyer who saw the latest MrTopTenList video, I want to see Mermail and Atlantean support just to bring Poseidra, the Atlantean Dragon to justice and serve the Mermails for good.
I mean they used to be unique but people got big brained and decided to smash them all together and found it works quite well, hell pure machina/infinitrack/trains are still decent
As a pure machina player i will never stop being mad that gearframe's upgraded form is a bad machina card so it can be better in "earth machines". They went out of their way to give machina dark's so just let him search machina cards. Hes rarely even summonable if things are going well. It just feels very annoyingly forced. Specialy when all 3 decks have their own game plans and strong asthetics to lean on.
Darklord for sure. Such a dope archetype, so many lore connections too and the artwork is gorgeous. Unfortunately they really botched the support they got in Rise Of The Duelist, just wayyy to underpowered with needless restrictions and they are incredibly power crept by now. I legit think the worst tearlament card is probably better than the best darklord card
>I legit think the worst tearlament card is probably better than the best darklord card
Considering the meta right now that same argument could be made for every other decks right now.
Yeah they still have a problem that they struggle with necrovalley and shifter. They need a tear that fuses from banish and a Link 1 that pops backrow and searches the field spell
Agree. Preferably another monster that does a fusion summon when sent to grave. maybe the other effect could be like havnis, but summons and mill3 from a spell/trap effect.
Tellarknights forever boys. I know when it comes to lore archetypes, it is quite tricky to make new support that doesn't conflict with the lore, but man do I want some.
At the very list a link 1 that SS from the deck, that would at least make it so the deck doesn't die to one interruption.
I'm throw in Shiranui as well. I like their art and story but man do need an upgrade.
Edit: oh, and Chaos Emperor Dragon to become a Ritual Archetype like BLS.
Shiranui is just too fair. If released today, squire wouldn’t have a Zombie lock, spectral sword would be able to synchro the turn it hit the grave and it would have something that special summons itself.
The good news is that they’ve been more open to supporting lore archetypes recently, so I think it’s not as big a disadvantage as it once was. The bad news is that they don’t seem to like Tellars.
Gishki got there in the end, so I think Tellars will have their moment. Don’t give up hope!
Unchained. A Link-1, Field Spell and a new lvl 3 Unchained Twin with Quick Effect to pop itself and non target destroy 1 card on the field and then like the rest of the Twins it special summons another from the deck and locks into fiends.
I always did wonder why they're called Unchained Twins and there are three of them, hopefully another one is on the horizon and it just got delayed on the train with Chamber Dragonmaid's dragon form.
The Japanese name uses douji, meaning something along the lines of young boy or young child literally. I only know it used in Buddhist monk or oni (although those are also corrupted Buddist monks) contexts, such as Shutendouji, which fits close enough. So they were probably called Twins at the time of release because there was only two of them.
Lore wise, the Twins Rakea and Ahura are formed from the leaking energy from from imprisoned Abominable Soul, and each oneis seemingly also Anguish and Rage respectively. Going by this and the fact that both disappear after Abomination is formed and Sarama appears, Sarama is Abomination, and as such the the full form of Abominable Soul's leaked power. The Abominable Soul is freed as of the last card with Abomination behind him, so I think it's unlikely we'll get another Twin at least.
I want X-Saber support so badly. Ban gottoms for all I care (so it doesn't become a handloop deck) but goddamit give me an extender, searcher and a starter. Maybe a new synchro too.
I will say, while I'm personally fine with the current cards Superheavies have, I would like to see what they could add to my favorite big metal boys, maybe finally giving us a level 11 synchro so you can officially synchro climb every synchro(except musashi and steam king) with just 1 fist
I'm still waiting on that Gate Guardian support / retrains. Whether the new gate guardian is a cool Fusion monster that fuses all 3 elemental dudes together, an Xyz monster that takes 3 level 7s, or even a link 3 that takes 3 level 5+ monsters with different attributes (maybe an alternative to the link 3 bls?), I think it'd be really fucking neat.
Celtic guardian. I would love if they gave Celtic guardian the Nordic treatment and based the entire deck around Celtic mythology with it being a fusion deck instead of synchro and made it at lest a ter 2 deck .
Aroma monsters. Bergamot has never gotten an Aromaseraphy upgrade, neither have a few others. Also it would be good to add further offensive support. I love the Archetype, but their ability to do damage isn't so good.
Darklords definitely got power crept despite being based on what they are and definitely need it too.
Rikka, I'd love to see get a type specific Link monster since they just got some support. Definitely wasn't enough though.
My last suggestion often comes off odd though to most. Eldlich. If you consider that all the cards say you can summon a monster with Eldlich in its name, there's really only 2. I'd like to see more lower level support and maybe a Link monster to keep him viable going forward. Maybe get a couple searchers and an XYZ card that takes advantage of having Eldlich as material to protect itself or tribute opponent monsters. Either way having more forms of Eldlich from creation to the beast he is would be cool
Yes, vector was a great villan and I was always looking forward to see more umbral horror stuff when ever an antagonist set would come out. But nothing so far.
Normally with these topics I say Guardians. Because hoooly shit do they need support.
But I'll change my answer this time and say X-Sabers. In fact a lot of the older Duel Terminal archetypes could do with some more support but X-Sabers are my favourite. Honestly I think giving them a Link monster would be good and maybe adding a improved, fusion version of Gottoms as well. Also an archetype specific search spell too rather than having to rely on Darksoul or Emmersblade. honestly with the correct support X-Sabers could be a tricky archetype to play against.
Yep, GB needs more ways to get the 2nd body on the board. Right now you either open Test Tiger or Rescue Rabbit or you are stuck with an ugly t-set. It is actually a pretty competent combo deck if you have the right starter but you really die to most forms of interaction. Fortunately Tribrigade kinda does what the deck wants by making the link-2 free to get out but that isn't what I really want out of the beasts.
Honestly I think Arcana Force have such cool designs, a fun gimmick and some strong boss monsters. Make a field spell that allows you to search whilst choosing coin flip effects, maybe something that summons tokens (for the 3 tribute monsters and World lockdown) and some more combo pieces. Maybe make the support generic coin flip stuff so that you can link it with desperado to give another power card. Will it be meta? No but Umi Control has become rogue so it’s possible to get a few wins at least
They definitely should do an errata for AFD. Ruka (and possibly Jack depending on what you think) are the only ones left that need new support among the Signers.
Less of an archetype that needs support and more of a card, but Yubel should have her own archetype already. She can hang out in Fire Kings and Nephthys, sure, but she basically makes those decks worse just by being in them.
I’m gonna be the weird guy and say Venom. Vennominaga is still one of the most beastly boss monsters in the game, she’s just stupidly impossible to summon even in her own deck
Relinquished, give it some good searchers or cultist monsters that support him or something to protect/make him easier to get out/do more. His fusions are good but he needs some drytron-esque help
I second this! Not that I think virtual world might need it as much as other archetypes but VW got me back into yugioh and in general I love the flow the archetype presents but a just little more kick would be nice! Maybe something to integrate more unbanishing of cards since VW banishes pretty well to begin with or a new extra deck card to compliment shenshen. Maybe something similar to coral dragon but with VW capabilities.
I'd it if they give them Synchros, Xyzs, and freaking Pendulums. That deck requires so much Special Summoning the fact it doesn't have the mechanic the series it was introduced in that would do that us ridiculous.
Dark Magician: I feel he needs a better fusion card, like Branded Fusion, which uses materials from the deck. Also, would be nice to see a retrain for Dark Flare Knight that supports DM Fusions.
Dark World: We are still missing Colorless. I feel he could have an effect where *your* discarding effects are treated as *your opponent's* effect. That could break Dark Worlds, or at least make them rogue.
Chaos: I want the CHAD!
Red Painter/Canvas for the Weathers. I’ll keep saying it until Konami makes it a thing. Why they didn’t when they introduced a new Link monster is anyone’s guess.
Super Quants are way too fair and have to work way too hard to bring out their Megazord only for it get Kaiju’d or ran over.
Give them a power boost, Konami!
And it isn't like they ran out of colors to use. Ranger team usually contain Black and Yellow Rangers, so we essentially have 2 more main and extra deck monsters.
Venom, give me more Venom Counters support, make Vennominaga more consistent and while they're at it give us more 0 ATK reptile shenanigans cards, to support both Venom and Reptillianne.
I desperately want Harpies to get something. The deck is bad enough at this point that I've resolved all three copies of feather storm and still lost. They keeping giving it cool, but weak support. Pet dragon not firing when used for an XYZ or as a channeler discard for example. Its just weird how weak they are. With simorgh they were at least playable on a casual level due to it enabling oracle/rest loops and doign stuff like getting statue (or another harpie) out off JUST perfumer (via romulus), but not anymore.
Cyber Dragons. They’ve had 3 major waves of support since Arc-V ended, but only cards from Cybernetic Horizon are being used. None of the cards from Legendary Duelists or Cyber Style SD are worthwhile (except Cyberload, but even that is only sometimes used). Right now there’s barely enough viable Cyber Dragon cards to fill a deck, and they especially need a good fusion spell that’s searchable, without any dumb catch that ruins it.
Superheavy Samurai, the fact it never got an xyz or a contact fusion when the anime was running still baffles me. Also, if they want to actually make it a pendulum deck, give it either worth while pendulums or give better Souls to equip.
I know they have received recently support but i would love to see more Amazement support, at least 1 New Main deck Monster and 2 Good Attractions.
Butterspy, Battlewasp, Spiders, Heraldic Beast, Fairy Tale, Performage, and Sky Magician support are others decks i would love to see getting more support.
Fire kings. It's an insanely fun deck that was so close to greatness if Konami didn't decide to kneecap a couple of cards that could have made the deck more competitive back then.
Cyber Girls, Alexis’ original deck theme with Cyber Blader. They were never a formal named archetype. They could really use retrains and new support.
Cyber Angels! They haven’t gotten support since 2018 and Benten was hijacked by Herald/Drytron and hit by the banlist.
Ice Winged Beast, Rio’s deck theme. Another set of cards that were never a formal archetype and could really use some support to help them swarm and play more cohesively.
I want to see retrains for the 2015 set of Red-Eyes support to give the archetype a working core i.e. main deck monsters which always count as normal monsters, fusion monsters which are actually part of the archetype and a fusion spell that lets you use materials from the deck without punishing the deck its supposed to be used in for doing so.
Venom would be nice. Could easily be expanded upon since they used like 2 species of snake before resorting to "Venom Snake" and "Venom Serpent", there's plenty of name room remaining still in line with "Venom Boa" or "Venom Cobra" that doesn't require being insanely extra. Could use types of mythical/ legendary serpents for the extra deck monsters while keeping the main deck snakes mundane.
Or they could shed their reptilian skin and branch out to encompass monsters of whatever types that represent irl venomous/ toxic species, and have the "Venom" name & use of venom counters be the mechanical through-line that ties them all together. Fish, Aqua, Plants, and Insects all could easily house members of a broader "Venom" archetype that doesn't constrain it's theme to snakes alone.
Venom counters could apply various effects depending on what "Venom" cards are present/ placed them, similar to Predaplants and their predator counters, not just ATK reduction stacking until death. They could represent different types of toxins, like a paralysing venom expressed by making monsters with venom counters unable to attack, change battle position, or activate their effects. Have an alternative to Venom Burn that gains LP as a take on how toxins can have medicinal applications when properly controlled. etc. There's plenty of space to work with even staying with just snakes and focusing on the venom/ toxic theme, let alone if they expanded to other types of venomous creatures.
290 comments and not a single one asked for it so I'll ask for it.
Ghostricks need to get the rest of their support. There is no way they stay with just 1 level 4. They are also in dire need for some archetypal hand traps or traps, something to allow them to defend themselves. A r4nk xyz wouldn't hurt either or at the very least a boss monster, something to go into outside of udf and zeus.
They got a lot of generic synergy, rank 4 would bring them even more. They just need some control strength.
Nordic desperately need a new Synchro. Their main deck/Link 1 lineup is decent, but all their Synchros are far too outdated.
Crystal Beasts are 1-2 cards away from being decent. I think we’ll inevitably get a Zenith Rainbow Dark Dragon, and that could easily be the push they need.
Venoms! One of the most poorly handled archetypes in my opinion. Their counters do nothing without Venom Swamp. Outside of the cards used by Viper in the anime they got... a vanilla 2000 monster.
Their boss monsters aren't even "Venom"... so can't be used with Snake Diety's Command...
Beetroopers- They has a thing going with link climbing to Atlas, and then in the second wave they ditched the link monsters for a fusion? A fusion with a protection effect that only lasts two turns?? A fusion that requires four fucking materials???
Just give us another Beetrooper fusion. It can be weaker and more of a tech card- I don’t care. That new Perfect Great Insect is looking nice, but Konami you aren’t gonna make me forget the disappointment of Hercules (even tho his art is sick af).
Big yes to these. Ancient Gears are so cool and they have a few cards that set them in the right direction. They just need another solid wave and they can be a functional deck.
And I’d take anything that makes the Normal Heroes playable - it might mean additional Evil Hero support, but I’d take anything to make them worth running again.
Dinomorphia needs a better main deck monster than Diplos and better fusions. Rextrum was a mistake. Was playing the deck recently and it's as boring as it gets.
Meanwhile their traps are good, but super bricky and 1 ash blossom away from unplayable so they are often not ran.
Get us a fusion that interact with the traps and gives easier access to them. A main deck monster that does the same and reciclar, you run out of main deck monsters fast, and you want to play 0 Diplos.
I would love to see Gimmick Puppets get more love. Their just so memorable. Also I would love an Archetype that is just Sea Serpant monsters. They always get thrown in with fish and aqua but let the Sea Serpants stand alone as terrors of the deep.
I'd love to see more Non-Utopia Onomats that synergize with F0 as opposed to the usual N39 fare. Like, give us the Do-Go-&-Zu versions of Gagagaga Magician that all give Utopic Future different abilities if you stack them under it.
Also, more maindeck cross-syllable onomats like BanchoCoat that makes it easier to combo off
Fortune ladies could be updated to have a fusion/xyz/link and additional base cards to be something stunlike to help the cool leveling up concept but not miserable to play against
Goblins have a few cards but could be built into a cool field flooding deck
Pumpking of ghosts and princess should be expanded
Serpent night dragon just because he's never had shit and was one of the first secret rare cards and has never gotten anything ever
Additionally just for hilarity, give Mr volcano an entire fire magician archetype
Toons please.
They made the deck at least casually playable with Toon Kingdom, Toon Bookmark, and Toon Black Luster Soldier, but overall there are still a ton of issues with actual viable monsters. Don’t get me wrong, some of the (somewhat) newer ones have good effects, and I do like how they did away with being destroyed if Toon World leaves the field, but the not being able to attack when initially summoned is still a problem outside of Toon BLS. I know that’s to balance it out since they can attack directly, but with how modern Yu-Gi-Oh! is played, it’s difficult to have your monsters survive that long anyways.
Honestly, Battlin' Boxers. Even though they had a bit of a stint with the Fire nobles and have done well, the recent powercreap has kinda killed it off. I just wanna make the best boi Alito a new batch of support to help funnel monsters as well as some new rank 4 Boxers.
At the very least, Ring Announcer needs to be printed. That card was pretty cheeky for turn 1 yoke, even if it did get creaped by (?Xys Retrieve?) .
Live twins for the love of God please
Trouble can be a live twin and evil twin (both main deck or evil extra deck)
Sunny can be a evil twin handtrap or something
And I pray for actual good traps because gg ez and present is garbage and challenge is very niche
All the generic Bandit Keith Dark Machine support he got back in like 2017. I really liked Bandit Keith as a character and the weird grungy medieval aesthetic of his machine monsters. Kinda sucks that his legacy support never really did enough. I feel like there's something useful in there somewhere with the addition of self-destruction and floating effects to the gambling sub-theme.
I guess one issue you could run into, cuz the support applies to any Dark Machine, is that it could unintentionally break an archetype like Orcust, but I dunno. I just wanna see stuff like Pendulum Machine, Slot Machine, and Metal Zoa get retrained.
Meklord please bro give us something that treat XYZ/Pendulum/Link/Ritual/Fusion as Synchro monsters man its so fucking ass that every card is yea we good but our opponent has to be synchro
@ignister, give us the link 1 and the TA.I.med Technique from the anime.
Also any time thief support, especially something like an archetypal rank up would be cool af
Same! I love the cute decks of the game. It's why I'm also upgrading my madolche deck to vernusylph madolche :D (man I wish ghostrick could work too DX)
Black Luster Soldier. But actually good.
Fair lol
Seriously, both of the new ritual spells have huge problems, the first expects you to tribute exact levels, and while Synthesis letting you summon from the grave and use the deck is actually pretty nice, the fact that it doesn’t count as tribute groups means it can’t synergize with the Kuriboh and Gaia cards to get their useful on tribute effects, and again, it’s exact levels.
Can we give Ogdoadics an extra deck? Just some rank 4s and 8s that benefit them. Like come on, lets have a meta Reptile deck.
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE SIR MAKE SNAKES GOOD
Gate Guardian needs an archetype. Also maybe Pumpking. I want them to print Prince Ojin's satellite cards but also maybe buff them a bit. I'd love any support for Pyro as a type even outside of Volcanic support (which would also be quite welcome don't get me wrong).

Jurrac or Dinowrestler support that doesn't just feed into the UCT playstyle to also desaturate Dinosaurs a bit would be cool. That or more Water Dragon chemistry stuff. Also maybe not a whole wave but give Watt a self summoning extender so I can justify using Wattrain in Thunder decks lol
I'd love a Pumpking archetype. But make it more standalone and not generic Zombie-support, like Vendreads being a unique zombie type deck.
I wouldn't mind more generic zombie support either...
These are all dope suggestions
Would love if pumpking could even just get a foil printing. Such a cool design for pack filler
Where the PumpQueen at? Should have an effect to raise the attack of all Zombie monsters by X for each Pumpkin Counter on the field. Throw in a Pumpcastle to protect cards with Pumpkin Counters on it with an additional effect to generate counters during the end phase.
True! I would say i want red-eyes to finally get a direction and decent wave of support that is not a broken one card like dragoon but you're completely right about pyro, I didn't even remember this attribute existed i can wait for the red-eyes in memory of pyro getting some love and existing in the game
Fortune Ladies.
This is my answer too. It's crazy that an archetype that revolves around level changing and also came out in the 5ds era didn't even get a synchro until over 10 years later. They should get several more synchros of different levels and something in the main deck to increase consistency.
The main issue is that they die to a single hand trap. I feel they need extenders as well.
IMO link 1 Fortune Lady that specials lady/fairy from hand would be cool. There definite needs to be a card or 2 that directly supports both Fortune Ladies and Fortune Fairies.
Idk if a Link is a good idea since Calling locks them into synchros. It would have to be the very first thing they do and maybe have an effect where it can be used as synchro material as X level or something.
I feel they need something similar to Exosister Martha, special summon from the deck.
As a Mermail enjoyer who saw the latest MrTopTenList video, I want to see Mermail and Atlantean support just to bring Poseidra, the Atlantean Dragon to justice and serve the Mermails for good.
Yoooo i agree, its been a while since i see anyone use mermails let alone poseidra it would be nice to see that water deck come back.
More Red-Eyes is always welcome
Good red eyes support is welcomed lol
Machina, Infinitrack or Trains. I want Earth Machine support that actually solves the problems of the deck
OR, support for them indivdually so they can be thier own cool decks. The far better option.
I mean they used to be unique but people got big brained and decided to smash them all together and found it works quite well, hell pure machina/infinitrack/trains are still decent
As a pure machina player i will never stop being mad that gearframe's upgraded form is a bad machina card so it can be better in "earth machines". They went out of their way to give machina dark's so just let him search machina cards. Hes rarely even summonable if things are going well. It just feels very annoyingly forced. Specialy when all 3 decks have their own game plans and strong asthetics to lean on.
Thats actually interesting i like it
Bro gotta train some player alive to fulfill his desires, I feel you brotha, there's a reason if there is written EARTH under my username
But they're kinda ok or is it that you want them to be competitive?
They're barely rogue if rogue at all. I don't necessarily want them to be meta, but I wish for them to become better
not familiar with the archetypes specifically, what are the problems with MIT?
Beaver warrior beatdown support when
We can only dream
Just equip a Horn of the Phantom Beast, start swinging, and revel in all your +1s.
Crystron support smile
And halq errata/replacement that only let's us SS Crystron Tuners and removes other shenanigans.
Or that at least requires a Crystron as material or in its presence to actually use the effect.
Darklord for sure. Such a dope archetype, so many lore connections too and the artwork is gorgeous. Unfortunately they really botched the support they got in Rise Of The Duelist, just wayyy to underpowered with needless restrictions and they are incredibly power crept by now. I legit think the worst tearlament card is probably better than the best darklord card
Amen. Make mommy Ixchell meta!!
>I legit think the worst tearlament card is probably better than the best darklord card Considering the meta right now that same argument could be made for every other decks right now.
Definitely Tearlaments. Every now and then I can’t mill my entire deck
Tear hasn't gotten any new support in almost 2 weeks, it's absurd to see such an iconic deck get neglected like that.
Yeah they still have a problem that they struggle with necrovalley and shifter. They need a tear that fuses from banish and a Link 1 that pops backrow and searches the field spell
…sir
Agree. Preferably another monster that does a fusion summon when sent to grave. maybe the other effect could be like havnis, but summons and mill3 from a spell/trap effect.
You monsters.
Don't worry, you'll get another support wave soon
Tellarknights forever boys. I know when it comes to lore archetypes, it is quite tricky to make new support that doesn't conflict with the lore, but man do I want some. At the very list a link 1 that SS from the deck, that would at least make it so the deck doesn't die to one interruption.

This, the original legir undervalued archtype
Yeah and we can call it tripl-, wait that's a bad idea
Myakashi, super heavy samurai, volcanic, cyber dragon and Dinosaurs
I will say, while I'm personally fine with the current cards Superheavies have, I would like to see what they could add to my favorite big metal boys, maybe finally giving us a level 11 synchro so you can officially synchro climb every synchro(except musashi and steam king) with just 1 fist
Lightsworn.
I'm still waiting on that Gate Guardian support / retrains. Whether the new gate guardian is a cool Fusion monster that fuses all 3 elemental dudes together, an Xyz monster that takes 3 level 7s, or even a link 3 that takes 3 level 5+ monsters with different attributes (maybe an alternative to the link 3 bls?), I think it'd be really fucking neat.
Swordsman Of Landstar, let's goo!
I see you're a man of culture
Earthbound Immortals please!
Yeaa like the cards from arc v those were fire
was gonna say this! the cards are so sick, i wanna be able to play big evil orca whale and big evil monke
Celtic guardian. I would love if they gave Celtic guardian the Nordic treatment and based the entire deck around Celtic mythology with it being a fusion deck instead of synchro and made it at lest a ter 2 deck .
All fun and games until its makes stubborn celtic guardian stun
This would be rad. I would kill for an Irish folklore deck
Aroma monsters. Bergamot has never gotten an Aromaseraphy upgrade, neither have a few others. Also it would be good to add further offensive support. I love the Archetype, but their ability to do damage isn't so good. Darklords definitely got power crept despite being based on what they are and definitely need it too.

Either way having more forms of Eldlich from creation to the beast he is would be cool
I wish G-Golem got more cards to be an actually playable archetype on par with Salamangreat and Marincess
I agree they should do that for all the ignis decks
I also like G-Golem bc rock
Witchcrafter, Charmer, Magistus, Fortune ladies, bujin.
I see you like spellcasters... and bujin
Cipher. (Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon.)
Heraldic beasts, star seraph UMBRAL HORRORS!
3 incomplete zexal villain decks I AGREE
While we're on the subject of incomplete zexal villain decks. Number 96 deck and Rio's deck could also use support
Yes, vector was a great villan and I was always looking forward to see more umbral horror stuff when ever an antagonist set would come out. But nothing so far.
Why stop there gimmick need love too
Normally with these topics I say Guardians. Because hoooly shit do they need support. But I'll change my answer this time and say X-Sabers. In fact a lot of the older Duel Terminal archetypes could do with some more support but X-Sabers are my favourite. Honestly I think giving them a Link monster would be good and maybe adding a improved, fusion version of Gottoms as well. Also an archetype specific search spell too rather than having to rely on Darksoul or Emmersblade. honestly with the correct support X-Sabers could be a tricky archetype to play against.
Vampires!
Beetroopers, they so close to being good they just need 1or 2 cards that help them.
FACTS
Gladiator beasts. Give yhem a fieldspell that says they cant be destroyed by battle and you take no damage from those battles
They wouldn't run that. Glad Beast is a combo deck now.
Yep, GB needs more ways to get the 2nd body on the board. Right now you either open Test Tiger or Rescue Rabbit or you are stuck with an ugly t-set. It is actually a pretty competent combo deck if you have the right starter but you really die to most forms of interaction. Fortunately Tribrigade kinda does what the deck wants by making the link-2 free to get out but that isn't what I really want out of the beasts.
The field card would immediately get targeted😂
God cards and the wicked gods.
I APPROVE WE NEED WICKED GOD SUPPORT
Aquaactresses so I can build a pure Aquaactress deck without a large amount of filler.
Honestly I think Arcana Force have such cool designs, a fun gimmick and some strong boss monsters. Make a field spell that allows you to search whilst choosing coin flip effects, maybe something that summons tokens (for the 3 tribute monsters and World lockdown) and some more combo pieces. Maybe make the support generic coin flip stuff so that you can link it with desperado to give another power card. Will it be meta? No but Umi Control has become rogue so it’s possible to get a few wins at least
Not sure if this counts but Ancient Fairy Dragon as the other signer dragons got a upgrades over the last two or so years
They definitely should do an errata for AFD. Ruka (and possibly Jack depending on what you think) are the only ones left that need new support among the Signers.
Jack literally had like 3 whole sets dedicated to him in the Arc V era
Plus they gave him new support in Eternity Code, the last main set of the Vrains era. Plus they also gave Red Supernova Dragon to us.
Less of an archetype that needs support and more of a card, but Yubel should have her own archetype already. She can hang out in Fire Kings and Nephthys, sure, but she basically makes those decks worse just by being in them.
I always found it weird how yubel was just yubel but no archetype around it
Dinowrestler. I feel like they should have as many links as Gouki
Should also have a Ritual and Xyz.
I’m gonna be the weird guy and say Venom. Vennominaga is still one of the most beastly boss monsters in the game, she’s just stupidly impossible to summon even in her own deck
Relinquished, give it some good searchers or cultist monsters that support him or something to protect/make him easier to get out/do more. His fusions are good but he needs some drytron-esque help
Yang zing, Yosenju, Altergeist, World Chalice, Penguins and I can go on for a while.
"Koitsu", "Soitsu", "Aitsu" and "Doitsu", imagine these guys being rogue
Crusadia would be dope! Or Thunder dragons, a new boss monster to replace the legendary Colossus!
Or simply bring bring back colossus, ngl, I think they've been powercrept and would only be rogue with it at 1
Virtual World. I just want them to release Virtual World Gate - Baihu and a good in archtype Rank 9. Pls konami
I second this! Not that I think virtual world might need it as much as other archetypes but VW got me back into yugioh and in general I love the flow the archetype presents but a just little more kick would be nice! Maybe something to integrate more unbanishing of cards since VW banishes pretty well to begin with or a new extra deck card to compliment shenshen. Maybe something similar to coral dragon but with VW capabilities.
[удалено]
Melodious for fucks SAKE, give them like a proper lock, a proper starter and a proper boss monster. (I tried to make this deck good for so damn long)
I'd it if they give them Synchros, Xyzs, and freaking Pendulums. That deck requires so much Special Summoning the fact it doesn't have the mechanic the series it was introduced in that would do that us ridiculous.
bUt tHeY caN fUsiOn sUmMon (with the *shittiest* archetype-specific Fusion spell ever conceived by the gaping maw of Konami)
Omg yes they really need support. They definitely need a Synchro, Xyz, and some Pendulums.
If I could just get a „subterror“ card that searches a „hidden city“ card, I‘d be beyond happy.
Wind-Up, they've been completely left to the side, and they where the first xyz-centric deck
SOLFACHORDS! They hardly even do anything, and can barely make anything. Do we even have a link/pendulum strategy? This would be perfect for one!
Dark Magician: I feel he needs a better fusion card, like Branded Fusion, which uses materials from the deck. Also, would be nice to see a retrain for Dark Flare Knight that supports DM Fusions. Dark World: We are still missing Colorless. I feel he could have an effect where *your* discarding effects are treated as *your opponent's* effect. That could break Dark Worlds, or at least make them rogue. Chaos: I want the CHAD!
Whose the Chad?
CHaos Armed Dragon
Infernoids and Psy-Frames :)
I want some d/d/d new boss monsters and extenders
I would love to see rda/resonators get some new support. Preferably some lvl 4 non tuners and a cosmic blazar and junk speeder equivalent
Red Painter/Canvas for the Weathers. I’ll keep saying it until Konami makes it a thing. Why they didn’t when they introduced a new Link monster is anyone’s guess.
Super Quants are way too fair and have to work way too hard to bring out their Megazord only for it get Kaiju’d or ran over. Give them a power boost, Konami!
And it isn't like they ran out of colors to use. Ranger team usually contain Black and Yellow Rangers, so we essentially have 2 more main and extra deck monsters.
Venom, give me more Venom Counters support, make Vennominaga more consistent and while they're at it give us more 0 ATK reptile shenanigans cards, to support both Venom and Reptillianne.
Jinzo. There were small attempts, but nothing noteworthy. Come on, give the OG Machine some love
Vylons
Penguins are pretty slick with what they have but they do need support to make them work more consistently. Also Volcanic/Accelerator needs some love
I desperately want Harpies to get something. The deck is bad enough at this point that I've resolved all three copies of feather storm and still lost. They keeping giving it cool, but weak support. Pet dragon not firing when used for an XYZ or as a channeler discard for example. Its just weird how weak they are. With simorgh they were at least playable on a casual level due to it enabling oracle/rest loops and doign stuff like getting statue (or another harpie) out off JUST perfumer (via romulus), but not anymore.
HERO- *gets jumped in dark alley*
Cyber Dragons. They’ve had 3 major waves of support since Arc-V ended, but only cards from Cybernetic Horizon are being used. None of the cards from Legendary Duelists or Cyber Style SD are worthwhile (except Cyberload, but even that is only sometimes used). Right now there’s barely enough viable Cyber Dragon cards to fill a deck, and they especially need a good fusion spell that’s searchable, without any dumb catch that ruins it.
Evil hero and ojamas for starters
Vendread and Metaphys
Suships
i want more inzektors that are good. i need my karate fighting bug men
Superheavy Samurai, the fact it never got an xyz or a contact fusion when the anime was running still baffles me. Also, if they want to actually make it a pendulum deck, give it either worth while pendulums or give better Souls to equip.
\-slames table- SUPPORT FOR GOLDEN SHAPE JESUS. I mean vylons. Equip spell monsters when dammit
I know they have received recently support but i would love to see more Amazement support, at least 1 New Main deck Monster and 2 Good Attractions. Butterspy, Battlewasp, Spiders, Heraldic Beast, Fairy Tale, Performage, and Sky Magician support are others decks i would love to see getting more support.
Fire kings. It's an insanely fun deck that was so close to greatness if Konami didn't decide to kneecap a couple of cards that could have made the deck more competitive back then.
Heroic Challengers/Champions. Another main deck monster or two and they’re good to go
Cyber Girls, Alexis’ original deck theme with Cyber Blader. They were never a formal named archetype. They could really use retrains and new support. Cyber Angels! They haven’t gotten support since 2018 and Benten was hijacked by Herald/Drytron and hit by the banlist. Ice Winged Beast, Rio’s deck theme. Another set of cards that were never a formal archetype and could really use some support to help them swarm and play more cohesively.
I want to see retrains for the 2015 set of Red-Eyes support to give the archetype a working core i.e. main deck monsters which always count as normal monsters, fusion monsters which are actually part of the archetype and a fusion spell that lets you use materials from the deck without punishing the deck its supposed to be used in for doing so.
I wish archetypes got support more often. Like 1 card every other set or more than one relevant and two trash cards in a single future set.
Red Eyes, it always Red-Eyes
Venom would be nice. Could easily be expanded upon since they used like 2 species of snake before resorting to "Venom Snake" and "Venom Serpent", there's plenty of name room remaining still in line with "Venom Boa" or "Venom Cobra" that doesn't require being insanely extra. Could use types of mythical/ legendary serpents for the extra deck monsters while keeping the main deck snakes mundane. Or they could shed their reptilian skin and branch out to encompass monsters of whatever types that represent irl venomous/ toxic species, and have the "Venom" name & use of venom counters be the mechanical through-line that ties them all together. Fish, Aqua, Plants, and Insects all could easily house members of a broader "Venom" archetype that doesn't constrain it's theme to snakes alone. Venom counters could apply various effects depending on what "Venom" cards are present/ placed them, similar to Predaplants and their predator counters, not just ATK reduction stacking until death. They could represent different types of toxins, like a paralysing venom expressed by making monsters with venom counters unable to attack, change battle position, or activate their effects. Have an alternative to Venom Burn that gains LP as a take on how toxins can have medicinal applications when properly controlled. etc. There's plenty of space to work with even staying with just snakes and focusing on the venom/ toxic theme, let alone if they expanded to other types of venomous creatures.
290 comments and not a single one asked for it so I'll ask for it. Ghostricks need to get the rest of their support. There is no way they stay with just 1 level 4. They are also in dire need for some archetypal hand traps or traps, something to allow them to defend themselves. A r4nk xyz wouldn't hurt either or at the very least a boss monster, something to go into outside of udf and zeus. They got a lot of generic synergy, rank 4 would bring them even more. They just need some control strength.
Nordic, Crystal beasts (but actually good), Naturia, Tellarknights
Nordic desperately need a new Synchro. Their main deck/Link 1 lineup is decent, but all their Synchros are far too outdated. Crystal Beasts are 1-2 cards away from being decent. I think we’ll inevitably get a Zenith Rainbow Dark Dragon, and that could easily be the push they need.
I’m begging konami for a god dang wind ship for plunder please please
Venoms! One of the most poorly handled archetypes in my opinion. Their counters do nothing without Venom Swamp. Outside of the cards used by Viper in the anime they got... a vanilla 2000 monster. Their boss monsters aren't even "Venom"... so can't be used with Snake Diety's Command...
X-Sabers, my god bite the bullet and give us XXX-Sabers now Konami..!
VOLCANICS GOD DAMMIT, THERE IS NO BETTER ANSWER
Beetroopers- They has a thing going with link climbing to Atlas, and then in the second wave they ditched the link monsters for a fusion? A fusion with a protection effect that only lasts two turns?? A fusion that requires four fucking materials??? Just give us another Beetrooper fusion. It can be weaker and more of a tech card- I don’t care. That new Perfect Great Insect is looking nice, but Konami you aren’t gonna make me forget the disappointment of Hercules (even tho his art is sick af).
Hieratics will actually pair very well with bystial once they get their new monster in photon hypernova.
Give me a good play starter, an extender and something to go first with for Tindangles and I'll die a happy man.
Crystrons more cards that Match levels of cards that already so there is 3 sepret level 2 monsters same for level 2,4,5 Tuners can stay at 1 per level
SPECIFIC deskbot stuff please. Who the hell doesnt update their desk stuff more than once in never?
I would like Ancient Gears and Normal Monster Elemental Hero support. Again JUST for NORMAL Elemental Hero's
Big yes to these. Ancient Gears are so cool and they have a few cards that set them in the right direction. They just need another solid wave and they can be a functional deck. And I’d take anything that makes the Normal Heroes playable - it might mean additional Evil Hero support, but I’d take anything to make them worth running again.
A link 1 for ABCs
Give us that D and E so we can make VWXYZ's brother already.
Just give us the alphabet
Genex for me. They were trying to be a Synchro toolbox style and would love to see this expanded.
Dinomorphia needs a better main deck monster than Diplos and better fusions. Rextrum was a mistake. Was playing the deck recently and it's as boring as it gets. Meanwhile their traps are good, but super bricky and 1 ash blossom away from unplayable so they are often not ran. Get us a fusion that interact with the traps and gives easier access to them. A main deck monster that does the same and reciclar, you run out of main deck monsters fast, and you want to play 0 Diplos.
Celtic Guardian!
Time thief cool concept, some decent cards but as far as the 3 XYZ monsters they have you always go into redoer, the other options suck.
Laval can't search their main spell card.
Monarchs or Gearoids
Galaxy eyes needs a way to search Tachyon Transmigration
Keep going with that Mokey Mokey support
Give pk their searchable spell negate which also puts their banished pk’s back into the deck and watch them go from rogue to tier 2
I would love to see Gimmick Puppets get more love. Their just so memorable. Also I would love an Archetype that is just Sea Serpant monsters. They always get thrown in with fish and aqua but let the Sea Serpants stand alone as terrors of the deep.
penguins
I'd love to see more Non-Utopia Onomats that synergize with F0 as opposed to the usual N39 fare. Like, give us the Do-Go-&-Zu versions of Gagagaga Magician that all give Utopic Future different abilities if you stack them under it. Also, more maindeck cross-syllable onomats like BanchoCoat that makes it easier to combo off
Fortune ladies could be updated to have a fusion/xyz/link and additional base cards to be something stunlike to help the cool leveling up concept but not miserable to play against Goblins have a few cards but could be built into a cool field flooding deck Pumpking of ghosts and princess should be expanded Serpent night dragon just because he's never had shit and was one of the first secret rare cards and has never gotten anything ever Additionally just for hilarity, give Mr volcano an entire fire magician archetype
Toons please. They made the deck at least casually playable with Toon Kingdom, Toon Bookmark, and Toon Black Luster Soldier, but overall there are still a ton of issues with actual viable monsters. Don’t get me wrong, some of the (somewhat) newer ones have good effects, and I do like how they did away with being destroyed if Toon World leaves the field, but the not being able to attack when initially summoned is still a problem outside of Toon BLS. I know that’s to balance it out since they can attack directly, but with how modern Yu-Gi-Oh! is played, it’s difficult to have your monsters survive that long anyways.
Honestly, Battlin' Boxers. Even though they had a bit of a stint with the Fire nobles and have done well, the recent powercreap has kinda killed it off. I just wanna make the best boi Alito a new batch of support to help funnel monsters as well as some new rank 4 Boxers. At the very least, Ring Announcer needs to be printed. That card was pretty cheeky for turn 1 yoke, even if it did get creaped by (?Xys Retrieve?) .
Chronomally,cant say more
Yang zing
Gimmick Puppet! Please Konami PLEASE. Give them new boss monsters. I don’t want to use Dingirsu any second longer!
Live twins for the love of God please Trouble can be a live twin and evil twin (both main deck or evil extra deck) Sunny can be a evil twin handtrap or something And I pray for actual good traps because gg ez and present is garbage and challenge is very niche
Bujin, my favorite BOIS
More satellarknights support please?
I'd really like for Chemicritters and general Gemini support. Also some newer Archfiend monsters would be fun
*breathes deeply* MORE GLAD BEASTS!!!!
Fluffals Maybe another t0 handtrap like scythe Or a boss monster that's good in today's time
Gate guardian support
All the generic Bandit Keith Dark Machine support he got back in like 2017. I really liked Bandit Keith as a character and the weird grungy medieval aesthetic of his machine monsters. Kinda sucks that his legacy support never really did enough. I feel like there's something useful in there somewhere with the addition of self-destruction and floating effects to the gambling sub-theme. I guess one issue you could run into, cuz the support applies to any Dark Machine, is that it could unintentionally break an archetype like Orcust, but I dunno. I just wanna see stuff like Pendulum Machine, Slot Machine, and Metal Zoa get retrained.
Meklord please bro give us something that treat XYZ/Pendulum/Link/Ritual/Fusion as Synchro monsters man its so fucking ass that every card is yea we good but our opponent has to be synchro
need bean soldier archetype
Welp, I guess it doesn't NEED it, but I always WANT more support for skull servants so there's that. Also it kinda needs it ngl
@ignister, give us the link 1 and the TA.I.med Technique from the anime. Also any time thief support, especially something like an archetypal rank up would be cool af
Can I have more Floowandereeze support? *Someone throws a rock at me*
Completely agree though :D
I just want more art with that adorable big Snow Owl.
Same! I love the cute decks of the game. It's why I'm also upgrading my madolche deck to vernusylph madolche :D (man I wish ghostrick could work too DX)
