I feel that the last Yu-Gi-Oh! thread went really well, so it's time for a new one. Yes I know Secrets has been out for a while now, but I haven't been able to pick up any packs so I decided to put this off until (hopefully) everyone had a chance to pick up a pack or two.

If you don't know what comes in the new set, or have been putting it off because you don't know if there's anything you want in it you can check it out here: http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/card_search.action?ope=1&sess=1&pid=11114000&rp=99999

The Yu-Gi-Oh! website always has that info on it but I'm gonna post it anyways for anyone too lazy to get to it themselves.

So let's look at what came in this set:

Not a whole lot. Well, Burning Abyss and Qliphort got LOTS of love with all that support.

Infernoids, Nekroz, and Hermit Youkais are finally getting into the TCG which is nice. What bothered me though is they added a bunch of the Infernoids, but when it came to the Hermits, or Yosenju for their TCG name, they got Magat, one of the best cards, and Tsujik, the worst card in the deck. Nekroz didn't get too much either but there's always next set.

I don't really feel like going too in-depth for this set, honestly there isn't much worth talking about. There were a few little gems in it but for the most part it was all about Qli's and BA. If you're not playing those this set was pretty disappointing.

Let's move on to the fun part, for anyone who did pick up some packs, what did you get? I pulled a Magat which I was excited about, even though he's a common. The Gem Knight Lady... I didn't really care about that. Lightning Rod Lord was a nice pull, but I quickly traded it. The last card worth mentioning was a Superheavy Samurai Trumpeter. I don't feel like going into commons but if you want too you can. A buddy of mine pulled a Wendigo and Caius the Mega Monarch. I only bought 5 packs though and I'm happy. I only run one Magat in my Hermit deck on DevPro so getting one was good enough.

So, what did you think of Secrets of Eternity? Were you happy with it? Did you get all the cards you wanted? Frankly, I thought it was a let down.

I don't really play yugioh (except for on the yopro android app every now and then) but I do like gathering cards for no other reason than for fun. I bought some SoE packs the other day and I did like what I got. My favorite has to be the Rune Eyed Pendulum Dragon. I also got Gem Lady Lapis, Raidraptor-Rise Falcon and Performpal Trump Witch. I can understand not liking Gem Lady. It is a lot of setup to pull it out and its main funtion seems to be adding cards to the graveyard to fuse from the graveyard.

Pretty jealous about that Rune Eyed, I got Trump Witch and Rise Falcon as well. Blackwings might see a bit more play with Falcon but I doubt it'll change the meta at all.

Well, this thread was a bust... maybe the next one will be better.

I went to the sneak peak of this set, bought a few packs. Pulls weren't great though, actually they were awful.

However I have been working on an Infernoid deck, I can say through testing on ygopro I like it. The concept of the deck is to just send cards to the grave. The summon the Infernoid boss monsters in order to create a one turn kill.

I'm almost done with the deck just need 3 Infernoid Antra which is the level 2 guy. and 1 of the level 10 Infernoid Onucncu.

Also for anyone curious on Infernoid here's the build I will be running, it took much trial and error, but I've settled on this one.

Yes I am only using 2 kuribandit, it's weird but the card can be the worst thing to draw into. I've tested it at 3 and hated it.


No side deck yet haven't really given it much thought. But Kycoo the Ghost destroyer is thee number one card for the mirror match.

Unfortunately I don't own a Dante, card isn't completely necessary in the extra deck but it would be nice to have.

Also I don't actually play on Dueling Network, it's just easier to send deck lists of this site than it is on ygopro.

I have to admit. That pack has some amazing support for all of the archetypes there are. I see some fusion, ritual, normal and even monarch support cards. I really need to play some more yu-gi-oh!

I have not bought Secrets of Eternity, and I have no plans to do so. It doesn't have any new cards I want, and overall it just looks like a mediocre set to me. I'd rather just grab another box of Duelist Alliance.
