THEY BANNED MATHMECH CIRCULAR WHYYYYYYY

[krawlernyannyan]

YGOMD 8-28-23

Playing in Ranked today, since I'm sitting at Silver I and getting a bit of rank-up gems might be nice while I work on my dailies.

1. [Labrynth] Fought a Utopia deck that got to Normal Summon once before getting demolished. Summoned Chaos Angel for the second time, entirely to make progress in the Synchro Summon mission. [Win]

This is the game that got me to L75 on the season pass, and now I've got the Gamma pet! That's my quota for the season out of the way, anything more is a bonus.

2. [Labrynth] Against Mathmech, they opened just about every interruption possible (though I sniped a Triple Tactics out of their hand with Lovely), but they left them with exactly two cards to make plays and after I hit their Circular with a pitched Tackle Crusader they took a minute before they surrendered. [Win]

This game got me up to Gold V! I'm actually gonna stop here because the dailies reset the day after tomorrow so I can just max out by going back for more tomorrow.

[geomathmechfinalsigma]

gonna try to get to diamond with this deck (currently plat 4). its fun as hell because you have a lot of non-negate interactions, plus sometimes people see me make alembertian to search circular and just surrender, probably because they can’t handle how cool and smart i am for thinking of that combo. the mathmechs aren’t even really bricks because they help you get to bagooska in a pinch, plus if you draw circular you can just heatsoul pass. steelswarm roach is like the 8th best generic rank 4 so he gets to hang out, i guess

Deck Tech: Mathmech w/Circular

From my post on the last version of this deck:

“Mathmech’s only archetypal +1s are Diameter and Sigma...”

“Mathmech’s built-in extenders are Addition, Subtraction, and Sigma. None of the other cards in the deck Special Summon themselves...”

“Any other desirable extender for Mathmech would be a Level 4 Cyberse monster that summons itself, or any card that summons one from the deck.”

The time has come and so have I.

For the uninitiated, Mathmech Circular is a Level 4 LIGHT Cyberse with these HOPT effects (source: YGOrg):

(1) You can send 1 “Mathmech” monster from your Deck to the GY, except “Mathmech Circular”; Special Summon this card from your hand, also you can only attack with 1 monster for the rest of this turn. (2) If another “Mathmech” monster(s) is Normal or Special Summoned to your field while you control this monster: You can add 1 “Mathmech” Spell/Trap from your Deck to your hand.

So this card by itself can send Sigma to trigger itself and search, which leads to Alembertian, which searches anything else and summons again...

At the time I made that last profile, I sincerely believed Mathmech was a decent deck that could probably be rogue with another playable card. Konami has decided to instead make one card that solves literally all of the deck’s problems. One card combo? Check. Another +1? Check. Setup for Diameter without seeing Mining? Check. Another way to get a body on board? Check. Improve hands that would make Alembertian into nothing? Check. Improve resiliency against hand traps? Check, this thing sends as cost for some reason, and you can chainblock it or Diameter with the other on field.

So a lot of the combos are going to have to change since this sending Sigma does so much by itself. This is the only +2 in the deck, so most combos linearize to search and trigger this card. Thankfully, that’s really easy.

Note for the following: Superfactorial is virtually always for 3. This new card is way too good.

Notable new combos, loosely in order of power:

A dead normal summon + Addition/Subtraction: Laplacian + Superfactorial (without enough names if you’re going first) OR Heatsoul + Superfactorial OR Final Sigma + Superfactorial. This is basically your worst case scenario so this is looking pretty good!

Circular 1-card combo: Heatsoul + Superfactorial + Wicckid search OR Final Sigma + Superfactorial. You can also go for the bad Laplacian route described above but it is definitely not as good as either of these.

Circular + any Mathmech you can Normal Summon except Diameter: Laplacian + Superfactorial OR Heatsoul + Superfactorial + Wicckid search

Circular + Addition/Subtraction: can be Heatsoul + Laplacian made once + Superfactorial (with Diameter) OR Wicckid + Laplacian (with Diameter, if that matters) + Superfactorial (with Diameter). The former route uses Alembertian to search Diameter directly and makes Heatsoul via Splash Mage, while the latter route searches the other of Addition/Subtraction off of Alembertian and then uses it to trigger Wicckid to search Diameter. In either case, Alembertian is protected by Linguriboh and made in under 5 summons. The latter route is most likely better; having Diameter in hand on the 5th summon is a minor advantage, but both extend into Heatsoul after Nibiru (as long as you play a Link Spider!) and play similarly against other hand traps.

Circular + Diameter: Heatsoul via Splash Mage + Superfactorial (with Diameter) + Laplacian made once OR 2-material Laplacian + Alembertian made with Diameter + Superfactorial (with Diameter). The second route is strictly worse but can negate a very patient Nibiru, which I am 99% sure is not worth it in most cases since you already have Superfactorial in hand. Diameter negate is live as soon as you make Alembertian, so more of this play is protected than the above even though it ends on the same cards.

I’m not going any further than this since any better hand will just keep Alembertian made via Diameter on board the whole time while doing one of the above lines. Also note that most of these lines can also make Final Sigma if needed, and if you draw Superfactorial, Billionblade Nayuta and Equation are solid targets.

Billionblade Nayuta looks like a typical equip spell that does nothing but damage, and to a certain extent, it is. Floating into something from GY makes it good enough to consider, but being able to hit over things for massive amounts of damage is a legitimately meaningful interaction in this deck, especially going second where searching a trap would be less proactive.

I am still split on whether you should actually play the cards that synergize with it, though. Multiplication has literally always been a brick and it doesn’t enable any better lines into Final Sigma. Division was worth considering when this deck was significantly worse at putting names on board, but it was always weak to  interruption, and halving an opponent’s card is much worse than doubling your own. Nabla hardly ever gets searched anymore since Circular does its job better. I figure one Nabla wouldn’t hurt consistency too much, but drawing Multiplication will never be good.

Other deckbuilding considerations:

Link Disciple and Devotee are certainly accessible. These cards are hard to interrupt as demonstrated by Cyberse Eldlich, but I think Heatsoul is infinitely better than making these cards in a deck that’s locked into Cyberse monsters.

Induction’s okay. Not amazing. You could play it.

Micro Coder doesn’t really enable any of this deck’s plays since all the lines can already go into Heatsoul easily without it, but Cynet Conflict is extremely good, leading to lines that are weak to Nibiru but strong against Twin Twisters and Ghost Belle etc. Cynet Backdoor on Circular is theoretically good against Veiler and Impermanence, but using one of these on the summon of Circular rather than the activation plays around it. Backdoor on Alembertian is actually very broken, but you need to get there first, and it’s really unnecessary if you make it with Diameter.

Parallel Exceed is obviously a great extender that goes plus, but it hardly ever raises the cap of your stronger boards. It enables extensions after Nibiru, but as I continue writing this post, I sincerely don’t think this deck actually cares about that card anymore. The deck is at 15 hand traps already so I imagine it’s between Parallel and either more copies of Nabla or maybe a Multiplication to send off of Billionblade.

If you feel like any of these cards suck in particular, just take out the three worst cards, put in Crossouts, and swap around hand trap ratios until you can account for everything you’d expect to see in someone else’s main.

Side considerations:

We won’t be getting any of these cards for a few formats, so this is tailored a bit to what a potential later format might look like. I sincerely think this deck is strong enough to lead to regular mirror matches.

3x backrow removal. I have Cosmic Cyclone in now, but this deck can afford to play Twins too. No reason to believe this deck wouldn’t want this; there is flat-out nothing you can do about TCBOO.

3x Crossout Designator and 1x Called by the Grave. You want to have additional answers to some hand traps. Also ruins the mirror.

6-9 hand traps. Nibiru/Ash will probably always be in the main. I have Drolls, Ogres, and Veilers in there as well right now, but Gamma (only going second), Belle, D.D. Crow, Token Collector, "C” cards, etc. could all fit in there depending on what’s good once Circular comes out. Impermanence is not great to draw off of Heatsoul, but that shouldn’t stop you from playing it if it’s good that format.

Other stuff worth mentioning:

Solemn Judgment if you’re concerned about backrow hate or Evenly Matched.

DRNM is really bad this format, but later on, this should help break boards alongside Magma. Droplet works too, though there’s very few cards you actually want to send off of it.

List below. And here’s a link to it on YGOPRODECK.

I lost my original file for this deck, so this is partially recreated. Extra could change by just a smidge. Transcode is helpful but could definitely be another Heatsoul. The third Alembertian could be anything else if you find it doesn’t come up. A third Laplacian is also a possibility. Late-game Diameter plays don’t lock you into Cyberses, so maybe a Daigusto Emeral could come up for more extreme grind games.

With that said--90% of games will be closed out in three turns.

That’s all for today. Thank you for reading. I’m excited to see this deck shine!

[betadunsparce]

haven’t commented on this yet because i’ve been inconsolable but pour one out for my child Mathmech Circular. seeing them get limited on the same banlist as kashtira unicorn getting semi-limited is heartbreaking.

[krawlernyannyan]

YGOMD 8-20-23

Been away from Master Duel for a while to avoid the Kashtira buy-in but I gotta get my lumps in sometime. At least the DARK/LIGHT festival is going on so I can get my dailies done somewhere else for the rest of the month.

Playing a janky Labrynth build since Lady and Big Welcome are at 1 here and Cooclock is banned outright.

1. Went up against a Blackwing player, popped their Black Whirlwind pretty early into the game and it seems like they didn't have a lot else going on because they quit only a couple moves after that. I had four set backrow at that point so, fair enough (they knew about a battle trick and a Big Welcome but I had a Solemn and a Compulse too so it's not like they were getting through the rest of that turn unscathed). [Win]

2. A Going-Second Utopia deck. They hit me with a Red Reboot which would've scuppered me but apparently just banishing a Mathmech Circular with D.D. Crow was enough to completely blow up their strategy and they quit immediately after that. [Win]

3. Some kind of janky Branded-Tear build. I used the furniture to set Big Welcome the second I saw Mask Change II come out to avoid getting Stovie and Chandra banished by Dark Law. Their endboard was Dark Law and Dragostapelia, which actually might've been enough to save them had they saved the Predator Counter for Lovely instead of hitting the maid with it, for some reason. Once Lovely blew up the DL they quit immediately. [Win]

4. Up against Vendreads, crazy resource loop from them that I couldn't keep up with. [Surrender]

5. Inzektors, which I didn't think about them being DARK until today. I blew up their Normal Summoned Ladybug and they quit instantly. [Win]

Gonna leave it there but I'm already 2000/5500 for medals in this event and making pretty solid time too, 4-1 is a record I'll take with no complaints.
