In this part of the video, the host introduces the second archetype from the new Duelist Pack, Duelist Brilliance, highlighting it’s a light-based pack featuring three different duelists. They discuss the new card, Galaxy Eyes Tachyon Primal, which is a light dragon effect monster and compare its potential synergy with existing archetypes like Blue-Eyes and Galaxy. The card is noted for its quick effect that allows it to be summoned from the hand if a dragon XYZ monster is on the field, and its ability to search for Tachyon spells or traps when summoned. The host also mentions the card’s third effect, which attaches it as material to a dragon XYZ monster when it declares an attack, although they point out the requirement of already having a dragon XYZ monster on the field as a potential drawback.

In this part of the video, the presenter reviews a series of cards, focusing primarily on “Tachyon Cloud Dragon.” They discuss Konami’s trend of creating “baby” versions of larger dragon monsters and appreciate the dragon’s design. The “Tachyon Cloud Dragon” is a light Dragon, level 4, with multiple effects: it can be special summoned when added to the hand (except by drawing), it can be tributed to summon a Tachyon monster from the deck or graveyard, and it can attach itself as material to a summoned Dragon XYZ monster. These effects make the card versatile and valuable for certain strategies. Additionally, “Swar Child Infinity Dragon,” a dark Dragon level 8 card, is reviewed. While it has a strict summoning condition, it can special summon another level 8 light or dark dragon monster from the deck, though with negated effects. The presenter notes the potential play strategies and limitations due to the card’s specific conditions.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses strategies around summoning and utilizing level eight monsters in a deck. They highlight the benefits of having an opening card that can summon two level eights without a normal summon, allowing for strong starting positions. The segment features a card named Dragion, which, when summoned from the extra deck, can add any Galaxy or Tachon card from the deck to the hand. This facilitates the summoning of additional level eight monsters and searching for more Tachon spell or trap cards. The speaker explains the effect of Dragion, which can special summon a rank eight Dragon XYZ monster with 3,000 attack by detaching two materials and attaching a Galaxy monster as an additional material. They also ponder the potential targets for this effect, indicating that if suitable monsters are available, this could be a highly powerful card. Additionally, they mention the card’s ability to search for a cloud dragon, which can special summon itself and contribute more materials without using a normal summon.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the card “Tachyon Spiral of Destruction,” a Quick Play Spell with three different effects, which can be used once each per turn. The first effect destroys all face-up cards controlled by the opponent that have already been negated, the second effect adds a Tachyon card from the graveyard to the hand, and the third effect special summons a Dragon Number monster from the graveyard in defense position. The speaker finds the card interesting but not overwhelmingly powerful, expressing curiosity about its situational usefulness. Additionally, they touch on an alternative artwork for Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon before analyzing a Normal Trap card, “Lord of the Tachyon Galaxy,” which allows for activation from the hand under specific conditions.

In this segment of the video, the speaker evaluates various cards, with a focus on their potential and limitations. A specific card is discussed that would be extremely powerful if its effect could be activated during the main phase rather than the battle phase. However, as it stands, opponents can clear the board in the main phase, rendering the card ineffective in the battle phase. The speaker labels this card as a dud for this reason.
The discussion highlights that a card enabling the use of Dragon XYZ Monsters could make certain decks, like Galaxy Photon decks, more viable. The speaker finds it exciting that the card restrictions only apply to the extra deck, allowing flexibility with main deck cards.
Lastly, the speaker speculates on the introduction of a new spell card that could enhance the accessibility of certain cards early in the game, enhancing the overall synergy of the deck. He concludes that while the monsters introduced are strong, the spell and trap cards are only adequate, contingent on existing Galaxy or tachon support cards.

In this part of the video, the speaker wraps up by expressing enthusiasm for the content discussed and highlights the anticipation for upcoming card releases in the Duelist pack. They mention a light-based archetype and a final Trickstar card yet to be revealed, suggesting that Konami will likely save a significant card for last to boost interest and sales. The speaker encourages viewers to stay tuned and subscribe for more updates on Yu-Gi-Oh news, particularly with the upcoming ban list season which could impact the game format. They sign off by expressing their excitement for future content and developments.
