Want To Build RDA - What's More Cost-Effective?

I have a decent amount of store credit I want to spend building a Red Dragon Archfiend deck, but I'm torn between buying three of the structure deck and just junking what I don't want/won't use (Assault Mode, etc.) or just buying the singles from the structure that I'd actually use and tricking it out with other singles. In terms of extra stuff that the structure doesn't include, I already have Dis Pater and Red Lotus King, Flame Crime but what else should I be looking at? And what are some good ratios for this deck anyways?

Egyptian God Deck…. Help?

So I’m mainly a casual/for fun Yugioh player That enjoys deck building and I thought I’d try to make an Egyptian god deck that Could Comfortably (Not necessarily consistently) Use all three Egyptian gods. So I’ve collected them and all the support cards I think I’ll need into a deck list, but the thing is I think that I’ll probably need another engine in the Deck to help with Summoning them. I was thinking maybe Horus or Yosenju because of Easily summoning a bunch of monsters for Tributing. But I’ve seen people use mill strategies to Dump the gods in the Grave and use the Revival cards to bring them back, so an engine that could help with that might work. I’m mainly considering Dark World at the moment cause it can kinda do both, but is there a better Engine I can use that would work better? Also, A bit of help with the deck generally would be greatly appreciated, I’m not too big on all the Egyptian god support so I’m not sure which is better and which I should leave out. I’ll put the deck list (So far) since it’ll probably help

Main Deck monsters: •1x Slifer the sky Dragon •1x Obelisk the Tormentor •1X The Winged Dragon of Ra •1X The Winged Dragon of Ra - Sphere mode •1X The Winged Dragon of Ra - Immortal Pheonix •3X Gaurdian Slime •3X Ra’s Disciple •1X Reactor Slime

Spell: •1X Ancient Chant •1X Blaze Cannon •1X Divine Evolution •1X Millenium Revelation •1X Monster Reborn •1X Mound of the Bound Creator •1X Soul Crossing •1X The Breaking Ruin God •1X The True Sun God •3X Tokusano Shinkoyojin

Traps: •1X Metal Reflect Slime •1X Soul Energy Max •1X Sun God Unification •2X The Revived Sky God •1X The ultimate Divine-Beast

Extra deck: •3X Egyptian God Slime

It’s probably bad cause, as I said, not too familiar with all these cards but any help with the deck would be appreciated. Thank you and have a great day!

If a card effect does not target, but instead is a non-targeting removal/banishment…

Does that mean I technically don’t declare what I want to send until resolution of that effect?

Example is Mirrorjade’s banishing effect.

What box sets are good to buy for a draft mode?

I mistook what to expect from Bonanza.
I wanted to do a draft mode with my brother. Do you guys have any suggestions on what 2 boxes I can buy, open and play for a draft mode?
A set with more generic cards, less archtype based cards, but also a good mix of summoning types if possible.

Can Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon be Pendulum summoned?

I know it can't be Special summoned, but I've been getting mixed info on pendulum summoning. I've been told that Pendulum Summoning is a specific type of special summoning like Fusion or Link summoning, but I've also heard that it's counted as it's own thing separate from Special and Normal summons.

So which is it?

Hand traps that negate a spell or trap activation. Let's make a list... if there are any...

I have been looking for a hand trap that negates a spell or trap activation (Both with one effect. Not like Red Reboot.) for freaking hours to no avail. Maybe I'm wording it wrong, maybe Google is too saturated and doesn't point in the right direction. Now, why do I want to find these cards? Because I'm evil and I want to stop people from getting rid of my Cook. I am really trying to make a consistent (Win rate > 51%) Cook deck and this is the main way people get rid of Crooked Cook. It's like Kaijus don't exist anymore. Having a hand trap like this would stop Transaction Rollback, Daruma Karma Cannon, etc. Now before any of you sweet sexy nerds points it out, I KNOW IT IS A MEME DECK. I'm just bored of stunning people in Master Duel so let's not get our panties in a bunch. That said, thanks for any help and input on this list. I'm sure it will help a lot of people. Hand traps that negate a spell or trap activation... Go!

Preorder Bonanza?

I've been collecting vintage for a long time and think it'd be fun to branch out and open 1 box of Bonanza. I've never bought a box of yugioh cards before so I don't know if it's better to preorder or wait until it's been released.

Help me resolve this impasse in DB

The tough situation is as follows: I have on my table geri, dimensional fissure, synchro zone, rivalry of warlords and skill drain . I tribute the three monsters on my opponent's field and summon ra sphere.

When resolving the summon effect of the sphere, my opponent says that I have to take control of it. I say no because the rivalry does not allow me to control two types. He says that I have to I say no to sending the sphere to the grave because the effect resolves it but due to rivalry it remains on my opponent's field.

Which of us two is correct?

Where can i find detailled ressources on combo ?

Hi,
Im playing a new omni hero deck and i already know a fair bit of combos but I would like to know if in general there exist a place with detailled explained combo, like maybe a spreasheet or something. There are some videos but not enough in depth for me.

In general, even for other decks, where do you guys find detailled/explained combo ?

Thank you !

tributing a targeted monster

What if I activate a trap card in the moment my opponent attacks my monster and the effect of a trap is I can tribute a monster (for example the one is being attacked) and special summon a monster from my GY. Can I special summon it to a zone the attacked monster was in ?Does the attack now targets this summoned monster or it is canceled? Maybe attacks me directly now ? :/

Do you need an open spell or trap card zone to activate the effect of a spell/trap from your hand on your opponents turn

Basically if a card effect like Makyura the Destructor, does that still require an open spot on the field to activate the card or do you get the ability to just activate from hand and send to the GY
