So with Savage Strike not that far away from coming out for the TCG now am looking forward to getting myself these cards as with Neos Fusion enabling both access to the Neo-Spacian Fusions with Brave Neos it also allows you to play Neos in HERO's where Neos Fusion can effectively let you mill a Neos and Shadow Mist from your deck both getting you a Brave Neos and an additional HERO monster from your deck to your hand. Also Neos Knight can also work in the same way with Neos Fusion where unfortunately it will not gain the ATK boost as it was not Fusion Summoned but Special Summoned through Neos Fusion.

Seeker of Darkness lv 8 DARK Fiend/Effect While you control 2 or more DARK Fiend monsters, you can Special Summon this card from your hand. During your Main Phase: you can banish 1 DARK Fiend monster from your GY; target 1 monster your opponent controls, banish the targeted card. You can only activate this effect of "Seeker of Darkness" once per turn. You can only control 1 "Seeker of Darkness". ATK/2700 DEF/1300 So Seeker of Darkness is DARK Fiend monster thats design is based around Guardian of Order where it could be summoned off 2 Light monsters where this can be summoned while you control 2 DARK Fiend monsters. In addition this card can also banish DARK Fiend monsters from your grave in order to banish monsters your opponent controls. In Decks like Archfiend or D/D/D which mainly focus around DARK Fiend monsters you can utilize this card for its effect, as link material or as Rank 8 Xyz Material.

Spirit Drain Continuous Spell Card Activate this card by paying 1000 LP. Once per turn: you can set 1 "Mind Drain", "Skill Drain" or "Soul Drain" directly from your deck. You activate that card during the turn it was set. During each of your End Phases, inflict 500 points of damage to your opponent for each "Drain" Continuous Trap card you control. You can only control 1 face-up "Spirit Drain". So Spirit Drain is a Continuous Spell that helps quickly set you up with the other Drain Traps where it gets them from the deck and allows you to activate them during the turn they were set. In addition Spirit Drain also has the added effect of burning your opponent for 500 damage for each Drain Trap you control and is also balanced by it only allowing you to control only 1 at a time. In a Stun Deck thats built around countering various effects, this card will be handy for getting your Drain Cards into effect and in addition to that Magic Planter can also work with this card by having you get a Drain Card that you don't effectively need by can use send to the grave for Magic Planters effect in order to draw 2 cards.

So Aquo is a WATER Aqua Link Deck that focus's on swarming to set up your Link Monsters while also acting similer to a MTG Blue deck in the ways of deck manipulation and counter tactics.

So Kingdom Hearts 3 is only at the point this topic was made 21 days away from coming out where I have to say I am excited for what this game will bring. Also I have seen that their have been leaks on youtube regarding this (though it was more gameplay of worlds and nothing story related) though I won't mention any spoilers for them though I will note only this in spoilers...

Level Linker lv 2 LIGHT Fairy/Effect When a you Normal Summon a monster: you can Special Summon this card from your hand, then, this cards Level becomes the same as the Level of the monster you Normal Summoned. You can only Special Summon "Level Linker" this way once per turn. This card cannot be used as Synchro Material. ATK/100 DEF/300 So Level Linker is designed best to go with the effects of Which Starling where they both enable you to summon any 2 material Xyz Monster from Rank 5 to Rank 8 where it allows you to summon various cards from Rank 5 Volcasaurus to Rank 8 Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon. In addition this card is balanced by the fact it cannot be used as Synchro Material so its not abusable in Synchro decks.

I thought Stratos was originally moved to 1 as a result of the Legendary HERO Decks last year where Stratos when to 1 where with all this stuff in 2019 would be a very likely reason for this year have it come up to 2.

looking at this I would of guessed Level Starling based on the art.

This seems like a neat techy card where if you equip it with moon mirror Shield or boost its ATK up by at least 600 it then gains full protection from being destroyed by battle where the effect to steal Spell and Traps to use against your opponent or act as discard fodder for cards as its sent to your hand is a nice touch on it.

Droll and Lock is to keep Trickstar Reincarnation in check so that Trickstar players don't abuse 3 Reincarnation and Droll and Lock so the opponent doesn't end up with no hand and just can't play. Gold Sarcophagus is more so to keep Thunder Dragons in check with their banishing effects. With Gouki/Dark Warrior Decks the combo basically nets you a 5 Material Rhongo that locks your opponent out thanks to Number 75's effect of butting itself and its material onto Rhongo. Sky Strikers having a Spell that can search any Sky Striker plus net a + 1 if you have enough Spells in grave where in addition to this it can be recycled by Kagari. Stratos to 2 is more so likely on a market point of view with HERO's getting support in multiple sets such as Savage Strike with Neos, Duelist Power with Grandman and Double HERO Attack (and may grant Stratos as a reprint) and Dark Neostorm with Destiny HERO's. Launcher is one of those cards that is a free move up for the list to help an old deck.

So were coming to close to no sooner than Jan 21st Banlist so I decided to post my banlist predictions on what may happen with this list. Banned: Divine Sword - Phoenix Blade Gold Sarcophagus Droll & Lock Bird Number 75: Bamboozling Gossip Shadow Summon Sorceress Limited: Allure of Darkness Brilliant Fusion El Shaddoll Construct Harpie's Feather Duster Shurit, Strategist of Nekros Sky Strike Mobilize - Engage! Trickstar Lycoris Semi-Limited: Elemental HERO Stratos Infernity Launcher Sky Striker Mecha - Widow Anchor Upstart Goblin

So am bring back some of the themes I made on the old YCM and revamping them starting off with Accel Androids which is a WIND Psychic Synchro Deck which focus's on swiftly building their Synchro monsters and laddering them up into higher Level Synchro's where those Synchro monsters will gain certain effects if a Accel Android Synchro Monster was used as Synchro Material. Finally the names of these cards are all based on sound and dance.

So as a start to being on NEO YCM I thought I bring my updated Kingdom Neos card on here with its effect updated. This card being a Fusion that can be easily summoned off with Neos Fusion in HERO's makes it a great addition to any HERO Deck as it allows you to mill off a Shadow Mist with Neos from the deck to summon this and get a search of Shadow Mist. In addition this card will gain ATK and DEF for each additional HERO you control excluding itself or any copies of itself where this with another HERO can make it a 3000 ATK beatstick. In addition to this Kingdom Neos is both a offensive and defensive monster where it has protection from monster effects and also can grant itself plus any other HERO monster you control protection from Spells and Traps during the battle phase as to fit in with their play style of beat down. An ideal play with this card is to have both this and Dread Decimator on the field to both give Dread Decimator protection from Spells and Traps during the battle phase while Dread Decimator grants this card ATK through its effect while Kingdom Neos gains 500 through its own with Dread Decimator on the field.

Hi NEO YCM peeps. Am Thomas Zero from the original YCM forum where I was original known as when first starting on the forum as Kingdom Neos. I like using E-HERO's in duels and making various custom cards. I hope you will all enjoy the content I provide to this forum ?
