![]() Sure there were cards that had crazy effects and had judges called over for questions constantly, but it was also a much slower game that it is today. Card Advantage and THE TRINITYĬard advantage is the core conceit of the format. The reason this bastard card’s release is the cut-off for the format is due to Goat Format having a heavy emphasis on the game’s tempo, that is both players trading blows and cards top maximize their card advantage until one player out resources the other, or one player stops having answers to the other’s threats. Cyber Dragon completely redefined what a Yu-Gi-Oh! card could be. Cyber Dragon literally changed everything. You may think that is an arbitrary cut-off date. In that same turn (if TER hasn’t already attacked or if it is not the same turn TER was summoned) you can flip TER into face-up attack position allowing you to equip a new monster to TER! Tsukuyomi will bounce back top your hand in the end phase and you can just keep this loop going! What is Goat Format?Īs I stated previously, Goat Format is a version of Yu-Gi-Oh! using the card pool and banlist existing through Augwhen the Cybernetic Revolution expansion was released. This will send the monster equipped to TER to the graveyard. Now if your TER has equipped an opponent’s monster, you can summon Tsukuyomi and flip TER face-down. ![]() Whenever Tsukuyomi is Normal Summoned it targets one monster on the field and puts it in face-down defense position. This may seem like a disadvantage, but when you consider it’s actual effect you’ll see how strong the card is. Tsukuyomi is a spirit monster, which means it cannot be special summoned and in the end phase it returns to your hand. Getting this beast onto the board is simply a matter of baiting your opponent into attacking you while you have Scapegoat set, nullifying their battle phase with chump blockers, then activating Metamorphosis using a token as tribute to summon TER. This is a phenomenal form of removal that few cards can avoid. In addition it can take one of your opponent’s monsters and equip it to itself. TER is a powerhouse as it shuts down your opponent’s aggro deck, stopping all monsters except for itself from attacking or changing their battle position. The real reason is because of the best deck of the time: Goat Control. Well that’s just because it’s the greatest of all time! Some duelists may say this. I bring to you, the Yu-Gi-Oh! format using cards and ban lists through the summer of 2005, Goat Format. Duelists were playing this format long before Time Wizard was officially sanctioned by Konami. What I am about to show you is one of the most popular varieties of Time Wizard Format that duelists play. ![]() ![]() If you recall from my Getting Started article I discussed a variety of the card game rules called Time Wizard Format. I come to you today with one of the most elegant ways to play our beloved card game of Yu-Gi-Oh. Time is a flat circle back off.), my dear duelist. Good evening (or morning, or afternoon, or whatever. Still, it is a good option in an aggressive meta and is flexible enough for a skilled player to compete in any environment.Did you play Yu-Gi-Oh! on the playground with your friends? Is new Yu-Gi-Oh! too complicated for you? Do you just want to relive those old school yard days? Then have I got the format for you! The deck primarily uses quick play spells like Book of Moon and Scapegoats as a means for disruption and protection, meaning it is well-positioned to run Royal Decree in the main deck in certain trap-heavy metas (though in others it may be running more traps).ĭespite being the format’s namesake, Goat Control has been outclassed as the "best" deck in the format due to its often reactive nature. Along with this, Goat Control plays powerful flip monsters as well as a small number of tribute monsters (mainly Airknight Parshath, Jinzo, or a Monarch). When combined with Tsukuyomi, Restrict can take full control of the board and chip in for damage until the game is won. The summoned tokens can be used to steal opponents’ monsters with Creature Swap or Enemy Controller, and while not tributable for a tribute summon, they can be tributed for Metamorphosis to summon Thousand Eyes Restrict. The classic control deck of the format, Goat Control is named after its use of Scapegoat as means of defending life points and gaining advantage.
