Instructions for playing Dinomist

Instructions for playing Dinomist

Recently released, Dinomis t - a powerful card line that has taken the TCG/OCG scene by storm, has now appeared at Duel Links with a very promising potential.

A little biography about this article. Dinomist is a prototype line of Pendulum WATER Machine Beasts introduced in Breakers of Shadow , and used by Shingo Sawatari in the spin-off manga Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V The Strongest Duelist Yuya!! . All of its archetype cards are Level 4 or 5, as well as a Pendulum Scale of 3 or 6. Like the Igknight and Majespecter archetypes, they are all connected to the Dracoslayer archetype.

overview




Dinomist is a pendulum dependent deck that plays simply like a beatdown deck (OTK meme), but they come with good protection as pendulum effects can protect them from destruction and damage. targeting effect, at least once.

With the use of Dinomist Charge , we can play around a monster sent to the extra deck to minimize resource loss, allowing us to take several turns in succession.

Since it's all WATER attribute, we can also take advantage of Reginald 's skill to easily achieve some WATER Xyz Rank 4. But this can lead to problems due to lack of trap/magic zones.



Skills

Before going into Skills, you need to note that Dinomist is a line of cards belonging to the WATER system - that is, the skills of characters using the WATER system are always suitable for them. At the same time, because it is essentially a pendulum deck, expanding the field to add a pendulum area is an extremely stable thing.

At the beginning of the Duel, add a Pendulum Zone to your field. This Skill will only activate if you begin the Duel with a Deck that has 12 or more Pendulum Monsters (Extra Deck does not count).


Because it is a Pendulum deck, using a Skill that points towards Pendulum is extremely logical. With this Skill, your field will be expanded and you will only use Dinomists and conduct your match. It doesn't provide anything other than giving you an extra Pendulum area to conveniently set your backrow.

The Level of all WATER monsters you control becomes 4 until the end of the turn. This Skill can only be used once per turn and twice per Duel. This Skill can only be used if you begin the Duel with a Deck/Extra Deck that contains no monsters other than WATER monsters.


This skill can only be used with decks that are pure WATER - that is, there are no cards with properties other than WATER. Luckily, the Dinomists are a WATER deck. Giving you 1 Xyz turn to Rank 4 is also quite useful in some cases. However, the only limitation is that you have to sacrifice going to the Pendulum area in exchange for 1 turn of Xyz, which will limit your backrow setting .

[Flip this card over when you activate this Skill.] At the start of your turn, call 2 numbers and roll a six-sided die. If you roll a number you called, your LP do not get lower than 1 until the end of your opponent's next turn. This Skill can only be used once per Duel.


Grit is less used in competitive builds, so it's still suitable for newbies if you haven't unlocked World Arv-V yet. Grit helps you survive your opponent's massive attack and helps you survive to draw the card you need to draw in your next turn (if you're lucky enough to survive drawing that card).

Can be used after your Life Points are at 3000 or below. Play the Field Spell 'Umiiruka.' If there already is Field Spell on your side of the Field, return it to your hand. This Skill can only be used once per Duel.


This is a pretty good choice when used for Dinomists and I personally feel it is quite suitable for Bastion Misawa. With environmental magic like Umiiruka , the ATK of monsters will increase, giving them a moderate ATK, enough to overcome opponent monsters or enough for you to perform a more stable OTK.



The Core

Dinomists have the same pendulum effects according to their pendulum scale, which is to protect Dinomists on the field from destruction or target effects by sacrificing themselves.

Scale 3 Dinomists protect the Dinomist (s) on your field from destruction, while scale 6 Dinomists negate cards targeting the Dinomist (s) your. If multiple monsters are targeted/destroyed at once (through Treacherous Trap Hole for example), then using 1 of the pendulum effects will protect them all.

Pendulum cards when destroyed go to the Extra Deck, but with Dinomist Charge on the field, once per turn, you can restore a card sent to the Extra Deck. Another way to restore cards sent to the Extra Deck is simply to summon a pendulum.

[ Pendulum Effect ] If another "Dinomist" card(s) you control would be destroyed by battle or an opponent's card effect, you can destroy this card instead. [ Monster Effect ] You can Tribute 1 other "Dinomist" monster, then activate 1 of these effects; ● This card can attack your opponent directly this turn. ● This card can make a second attack during each Battle Phase this turn.


One of the deck's easy win conditions. It can attack twice a turn and attack directly, ignoring all opponent's monsters and having some protective effects from Dinomist pendulum cards.

Summon Pendulum Spinos with other Dinomists and activate Spinos 's effect. If you have Dinomist Charge on the field, the card sacrificed to Spinos returns to your hand. If that card is low level or has a special summoning effect, you can return it to the field to be sacrificed to Spinos again.

Alternatively, you can special summon Spinos from the deck with Dinomist Rush and have it unaffected by everything that turn, but this can be a risky turn. Even if you have Dinomist Charge , you can only recover 1 card per turn, whereas this OTK play requires a lot of cards.

Since the Dinomist monster's pendulum effect is intended to protect monsters on your field from targeting or destruction effects, there is a fairly high chance that Spinos ' attack will succeed. With 2x 2500 ATK, it's enough to OTK for a lot of time, unless your opponent uses "Grit" or has handtraps.

If you have Concentrating Current in hand, you only need to activate the Spinos effect once to perform OTK.

[ Monster Effect ] If another Pendulum Monster you control battles an opponent's monster, after damage calculation: You can destroy those monsters.


  • Pteran is a useful searcher so you can get both scales to perform pendulum summons or to access combos for an OTK round. 1800 ATK for low levels is just decent, but you can increase its attack power with cards in the deck like Abyss Dweller , Dinomic Powerload or Concentrating Current .
  • Ceratops allows you to activate 2 Spinos effects in the same turn quite easily. Summon pendulum Spinos + Ceratops then sacrifice the Ceratops for the first effect. Follow it up by special summoning another Ceratops or using the same Ceratops as it is added back to your hand if you have Dinomist Charge on the field.
  • As for Stegosaur , its effect only works on your other Dinomist monsters and only works after the damage calculation step. This allows any of your other Dinomists to deal with any monster your opponent controls, as long as they can be destroyed by a card effect. It's less of a loss if you have Dinomist Charge on the field because you can bring the destroyed monster back to life.

[ Pendulum Effect ] Once, while this card is in your Pendulum Zone, you can negate an activated card effect that targets another "Dinomist" card(s) you control, then destroy this card. [ Monster Effect ] If this card attacks, at the end of the Damage Step: You can Tribute 1 other "Dinomist" monster, then activate 1 of these effects; ● This card can attack an opponent's monster again in a row, and if it attacks a Defense Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage to your opponent. ● Shuffle 1 card from your opponent's hand (at random) or their side of the field into the Deck, then this card gains 100 ATK.


  • Rex has a strong ability to remove non-target cards or a suitable OTK option if your opponent has at least 2 monsters. But Rex can only use its effect after it attacks, and needs to sacrifice another monster to do so, making regular use a bit difficult. You can use its effect to remove dangerous monsters like Bloom Diva the Melodious Choir , but you will need to sacrifice another Dinomist monster on your field as well as a low-scale Dinomist effect to prevent it. Blocks destructive effects.
  • Plesios helps turn the deck into more of a beatdown deck, but it can only reduce up to 300 ATK due to only having 3 monster zones. Dinamic Powerload will help increase ATK range so you can defeat most monsters with any Dinomist .
  • For decks that don't use banish effects, Ankylos 's effect is quite strong as it will remove them for the rest of the game. But this is quite situational and needing to destroy them with combat only helps a beatdown version of the deck.
  • Brachion on the other hand gives you an extra special summon from your hand to make it easier to get to Rank 5. In addition, the pendulum effect is also used as much as any other Dinomist card, so it is also ranked as nothing special in the deck.

Dinomist Charge (3x)

    When this card is activated: Add 1 "Dinomist" monster from your Deck to your hand. Once per turn, if a "Dinomist" card(s) is added from the field to your Extra Deck face-up: Add 1 of those cards to your hand. You can only activate 1 "Dinomist Charge" per turn.


    Use this card to search for other scales you need for pendulum summoning. If you've got both low and high scale (3 and 6), then Spinos or Ceratops are good options to choose if you want to play OTK.

    Its healing effect makes it possible for you to freely use certain Dinomist sacrifice effects. But since it's only once per turn, you'll have to consider whether or not you need to use pendulum effects for protection.

    If you are using a deck without the skill to create a pendulum zone, be careful with this card because you can clog the field after placing 2 pendulum cards on the field.

      All "Dinomist" monsters on the field gain 300 ATK and DEF. If a "Dinomist" monster you control battles, your opponent cannot activate cards or effects until the end of the Damage Step.


      This card allows you to attack without interruption and also prevents handtraps. The ATK increase is just a pretty good bonus, but it only helps the beatdown version gameplay more so in most builds it is not very important.

      Dinomist Rush and Dinomist Eruption (3x)

          If a "Dinomist" monster(s) you control is destroyed by battle or card effect: Target 1 card your opponent controls; destroy it.


          • The best monster to summon with Dinomist Rush is Spinos . As long as you have any other Dinomist monsters, Spinos will be able to attack directly. With 2 monsters, the possibility of OTK is quite high.
            • The only cards that can stop an OTK from a Spinos that can attack twice directly are cards that prevent damage dealt. Since this trap card will destroy the summoned monster during your End Phase, this is not a good play if you think your opponent has any handtraps that are not Sphere Kuriboh as you will be out of monsters. Which animal is on your yard?
          • But Dinomist Rush is a very good combination with Dinomist Eruption . After 1 Dinomist monster is destroyed (whether from you or your opponent), you can target 1 card on your opponent's field for destruction. Thus, if the Dinomists are destroyed after the End Phase by the effect of Dinomist Rush , you will not worry too much about the empty field because you can now destroy the opponent's field as well.



          Extra Deck

          Dinomist 's Extra Deck depends more on Xyz Ranks 4 and 5 than using Synchro or other Ranks, because the pendulum nature of Duel Links is very suitable for quickly summoning Xyz.

          2 Level 4 monsters While this card has a material attached that was originally WATER, all WATER monsters you control gain 500 ATK. Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can detach 1 material from this card; your opponent cannot activate any card effects in their GY this turn.


          Mainly to prevent your opponent from being able to use activateable cards in the grave. Since Dinomists are WATER-attributed, the Abyss Dweller will receive an ATK boost, making it 2200 ATK, as well as buffing your other Dinomists on the field.

When this card is destroyed by battle or card effect and sent to the Graveyard: You can target 1 other monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it. You can only use each effect of "Number 37: Hope Woven Dragon Spider Shark" once per turn.

          3 Level 4 WATER monsters You can also Xyz Summon this card by using a Rank 3 WATER Xyz Monster you control that has no Xyz Materials as the Xyz Material. This card gains 200 ATK for each Xyz Material attached to it. If this face-up card would be destroyed, you can detach all of its Xyz Materials instead. If this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle: You can target 1 Spell/Trap Card your opponent controls; destroy that target.

          2 Level 3 monsters When this card is Special Summoned: You can attach 1 Level 3 WATER monster from your hand or your side of the field to this card as an Xyz Material. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 WATER monster you control; this turn, that monster can attack your opponent directly, also other monsters cannot attack.


          The cards I then introduce are perfectly usable for Dinomists .

          • Bahamut Shark allows you to special summon another 2000+ ATK monster, to block attacks or just to make a safer first turn in general.
          • There aren't any level 3 Dinomists in the deck so you can't Xyz Nightmare Shark summon with these materials, which also means you can't use its effects to attack directly. Mainly used to rank up to Black Ray Lancer . Full Armored Black Ray Lancer has a one-time protection effect, but it's also a pretty good puncher as it has 2100 to 2300 ATK.
          • Number 37 is a pretty strong monster that may be difficult for your opponent to overcome as it is basically considered a monster with 3600 ATK if it still has Xyz materials. The floating effect is also quite powerful as you will be able to special summon any monster in the grave if it is destroyed. This is a way to restore Dinomists if they are ever sent to the grave.
          • Finally, Number 32: Shark Drake , Number 32 can be the second most powerful OTK in your deck if you play the beatdown version. For 1 turn, it can act as a Spinos but acts as an opponent's monster up to 2 times.

          Number 30: Acid Golem of Destruction (1x)

          SR Rarity
          Number 30: Acid Golem of Destruction
          SR Rarity
          Number 30: Acid Golem of Destruction
          Number 30: Acid Golem of Destruction
          WATER
          Number 30: Acid Golem of Destruction
          • ATK:

          • 3000

          • DEF:

          • 3000


          2 Level 3 monsters During your Standby Phase: Detach 1 Xyz Material from this card or take 2000 damage. You cannot Special Summon any monsters. While this card has no Xyz Materials, it cannot attack.


          What if I said there are still a few good brothers who still love this evil way of playing? Especially for WATER players. Very suitable to play with the Bahamut Shark and Mystic Box combo.

          2 Level 4 monsters Once per Chain, during either player's turn, if 2 or more monsters with the same name are on the field: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; choose 1 monster among those with the same name, and destroy all other monsters with that name. While this card remains face-up on the field, your opponent cannot Summon monsters with the same name as any of the monster(s) chosen for this card's effect. If this card is sent to the Graveyard: You can send 2 "Heraldic Beast" monsters from your Deck to the Graveyard.

          2 Level 4 monsters Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 Beast, Beast-Warrior, or Winged Beast-Type monster you control and 1 other card on the field; destroy them.


          There seems to be no need to say too much about these cards because their power is common enough for most decks that favor Xyz Rank 4. The common point of these cards is to remove at least 1 cards on the opponent's field so that Dinomists can perform OTK turns more easily.

          2 Level 5 monsters This card's effects can only be applied/resolved while it has Xyz Material. This card cannot be destroyed by card effects. At the end of the Battle Phase, if this card attacked or was attacked: Target 1 card your opponent controls; destroy that target. During each of your End Phases: Detach 1 Xyz Material from this card.

          2 Level 5 monsters Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to target 1 face-up card your opponent controls; destroy it.


          • If you no longer have the ability to defend destruction from scale 3 Dinomists , you can Xyz into Tiras to avoid clearing the field. It has the pretty cool effect of being able to destroy a card if it attacks or is attacked, but Rex can provide a more powerful form of card removal if you can afford it.
          • Adreus gives the deck a card removal effect without having to attack your opponent. This turn can deal with dangerous handtraps or other traps that may occur during the Battle Phase.

          2 Level 5 monsters Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; destroy that opponent's monster, and if you do, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the destroyed monster's original ATK. This card cannot attack your opponent directly during the turn you activate this effect.

          2 Level 7 monsters You can also Xyz Summon this card by using a Rank 5 or 6 Xyz Monster you control as material. (Transfer its materials to this card.) If this card attacks a Defense Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage.


          • Number 61 is another variation of the Dinomist mechanical dinosaurs in Xyz FIRE form. In essence, it is also an Adreus but can only deal effect damage corresponding to the destroyed monster. Its limitation is that it can only destroy monsters, is not as diverse as Adreus and cannot attack like Adreus . But the effect damage that Number 61 causes is not small and is quite useful in a few turns.
          • If Number 61 cannot attack after using its effect, you can still rank it up with Gaia . Gaia 's armor-piercing attack also helps in some situations.

          2 Level 4 Machine-Type monsters Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; add 1 Level 4 or lower Machine-Type monster from your Deck or Graveyard to your hand. When this card leaves the field: You can target 1 Level 3 or lower "Geargia" monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon that target.


          Dinomists are essentially still Machine-type monsters, meaning using an Extra Deck that only involves Machine types is still welcome. For example, here, I'm introducing you to Bronk Stone 's flagship Machines.

          • First of all is Gigant In addition, the ATK of 2300 cards is quite high and enough to be able to OTK when combined with the Rank 4 removal options that I introduced in the previous section.
          • And Zenmaioh can completely destroy 2 of your opponent's backrows so you can quickly finish and ensure your OTK turn - a quite useful card.



          Techs

          Sometimes the Techs for this deck are not very necessary but it is still good to have some necessary protection for your LP if your field is cleared after your failed OTK turn.

          You can Special Summon this card (from your hand) to your opponent's field in Defense Position, by Tributing 1 monster they control. If Summoned this way, once, during the End Phase of this turn: You can draw 1 card.


          Of course, new products coming out in new boxes should be in a completely new deck, right? Santa Claws can fix your OTK turns easier. All you need to do is deal with potential backrows and handtraps.

            During damage calculation, if your opponent's monster attacks directly (Quick Effect): You can discard this card; you take no battle damage from that battle. During damage calculation, if your opponent's monster attacks directly (Quick Effect): You can banish this card from your Graveyard; you take no battle damage from that battle.


            You should use these cards to give yourself some necessary protection to survive a failed OTK that clears the field. It will always be necessary to use these leaves, so it will not be redundant or too bricked. In my opinion, Sphere Kuriboh and Book of Moon should still be used more because they are still unnumbered.

              All "Gravekeeper's" monsters gain 500 ATK and DEF. Cards in the Graveyard cannot be banished. Negate any card effect that would move a card in the Graveyard to a different place. Negate any card effect that changes Types or Attributes in the Graveyard.


              Since Dinomist doesn't rely too much on graves, why not turn it into an even more super annoying deck with Necrovalley ? Locking your opponent's grave completely will cause them to no longer be able to use their combos and eventually lead to them giving up the match.

                Target 1 face-up monster on the field; until the end of this turn, that target gains 400 ATK, but its effects are negated.


                It will be a pretty good ATK increase for Dinomists but it will be counterproductive in that it nerfs their effects. But with such increased protection and 1 ATK, OTK is really too easy.

                  If you control a Machine monster: Change your opponent's Attack Position monsters (if any) to Defense Position, also, until the end of this turn, if a monster(s) is Normal or Special Summoned to your opponent's field, change them to Defense Position.


                  Gives you more protection than with Sphere Kuriboh , instead of just 1 target, after you activate this card, all of your opponent's monsters will go into defense position, that's enough. enough for you to turn the situation around next time.



                  Combos

                  Because the deck is purely Dinomists and has no other monsters, you will find it quite easy to use the deck, relying mainly on Spinos , Rex , Dinomist Charge . Below are some useful combos for you to get used to, check them out.

                  Dinomist Spinos, Dinomist Charge and Dinomist Ceratops (Combo 1)

                  • 1800


                  [ Pendulum Effect ] If another "Dinomist" card(s) you control would be destroyed by battle or an opponent's card effect, you can destroy this card instead. [ Monster Effect ] You can Tribute 1 other "Dinomist" monster, then activate 1 of these effects; ● This card can attack your opponent directly this turn. ● This card can make a second attack during each Battle Phase this turn.


                  SR Rarity

                  Dinomist Charge

                    When this card is activated: Add 1 "Dinomist" monster from your Deck to your hand. Once per turn, if a "Dinomist" card(s) is added from the field to your Extra Deck face-up: Add 1 of those cards to your hand. You can only activate 1 "Dinomist Charge" per turn.


                    R Rarity
                    Dinomist Ceratops
                    R Rarity

                    Dinomist Ceratops
                    • ATK:

                    • 2100

                    • DEF:

                    • 400


                    [ Pendulum Effect ] If another "Dinomist" card(s) you control would be destroyed by battle or an opponent's card effect, you can destroy this card instead. [ Monster Effect ] If all monsters you control are "Dinomist" monsters (min. 1), and none are "Dinomist Ceratops", you can Special Summon this card (from your hand).


                    As mentioned in the previous section, this combo will help you avoid wasting useless resources but can also continuously recycle resources to continue your OTK turn.

                    • Activate Dinomist Charge first to bring 1 more Ceratops to your hand (whether or not you have Ceratops in your hand, but ideally you should have 1 Ceratops card in your hand).
                    • Summons pendulum Spinos if scale 3 and 6 are available on the field
                    • Using Ceratops 's effect, summon it and using Spinos 's effect, sacrifice Ceratops . After being sacrificed, Ceratops will return to the Extra Deck.
                    • Now that Dinomist Charge is activated, you will need to bring Ceratop s back to your hand.
                    • Continue special summoning Ceratops and use Spinos to activate its second effect, Tribute Ceratops .
                    • At this point you will be able to use both of Spinos 's effects without wasting too much resources. Your best field setup right now might be Spinos and another Dinomist monster, for example.

                      2 Level 5 monsters Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to target 1 face-up card your opponent controls; destroy it.


                      This combo will be more diverse and help you get 1 Xyz Rank 5, better than combo 1 and will only be suitable if you are behind your opponent, your starting hand will be Spinos , Dinomist Charge, Brachion or Ceratops and another level 5 Dinomist .

                      • Activate Dinomist Charge to bring Ceratops or Brachion to hand (any card already in hand, but usually Brachion as it is quite unlikely to be drawn).
                      • Surely your opponent will summon a monster before you and to take advantage of that, you should summon Brachion first. Then normal summon Spinos , this time don't activate Dinomist Charge because you definitely won't need to use the Brachion that just returned to the Extra Deck.
                      • Special Summon Ceratops , Spinos will sacrifice Ceratops to activate his head effect.
                      • Activate Dinomist Charge to return Ceratops to your hand and special summon it to further tribute Spinos 's second effect.
                      • At this time, you have not yet summoned the pendulum, pendulum 1 level 5 Dinomist from your hand and 1 level 5 Dinomist from the Extra Deck to the field. Xyz has a Rank 5 like Adreus for example, use their effects to clear you of backrows or enemy monsters to ensure Spinos can OTK straight away.

                          [ Pendulum Effect ] If another "Dinomist" card(s) you control would be destroyed by battle or an opponent's card effect, you can destroy this card instead. [ Monster Effect ] If another Pendulum Monster you control battles an opponent's monster, after damage calculation: You can destroy those monsters.


                          This combo will help you feel more secure after Dinomists use their abilities to destroy themselves or in times when those Dinomists need to sacrifice themselves for a better purpose.

                          • Activate Rush to bring the Stegosaur onto the field. Stegosaur has the ability to help other Dinomists destroy enemy monsters after attacking.
                          • For example, when facing monsters with higher ATK than your Dinomist and all Dinomists are destroyed, immediately activate or Eruption , I don't care how many cards you set but at least have 1 card for the combo. hey - destroy 1 opponent's card.
                          • In the End Phase, the Stegosaur will be destroyed, but the interesting thing here is that if you still have 1 Eruption left on the field, after the Stegosaur fades, you can still make the opponent's field disappear.

                                                        Final thoughts

                                                        Dinomist is one of the card lines that is considered F2P (Free to Play - Free) and is worth playing in the current Duel Links format. With the Core cards mainly found in the latest Force of Infinity box and just with them, it is completely possible to build an extremely strong Dinomist deck. The power of this deck is not only at the F2P level but can also be used to compete with other top tiers, worthy of being one of the most potential top rank decks in Duel Links.
