Deck Description
Special thanks goes to gamba for sharing this deck with everyone, and to Lorelei for writing this article. I would like to show you one of the decks that I call punk fiendsmith. This is a meta deck. When you want to become competitive in the world of Yu-Gi-Oh, meta decks are the way to go: they feature strategies and certain cards that allow players to go against the most common cards that most players are using. This deck uses the April 2025 TCG banlist. This deck was first shared on 2025-05-14.
This deck is better at going first at the start of the duel. This is a Hybrid deck. Hybrid decks feature traits of various deck types. They exist to compensate for an inherent weakness of pure typings. Hybrid decks may present significant match-up problems. This deck is moderately easy to play.
You can see the full deck on this page. 40 cards are in the main deck, which made the most sense when building this deck.
I have many yugioh decks and I built most of them using the Dueling Nexus deck editor because its my favourite one. The shuffle button can be used to quickly see your opening hands.
