Considering that the meta is going to be "Summon 3 blue-eyes in one turn" for a while, and the fact that it looks like Gladiator Beasts have to attack something to start combo-ing, I don't think they're going to be meta any time soon. That plus they don't have an invincible boss monster, negation effects, or floodgates, which have been the shape of the meta since Qliphort I think.
As for these new cards actually getting printed, there is a Fusion themed booster pack on the horizon, but those tend to have the pattern of "New Anime archetype, support for old Anime archetype, completely new archetype, generic support for the theme", and I'm almost certain the first two are going to be Predator Plants and Ancient Gears. Maybe they'll be released in a main set way down the line along with the new Amazon cards. And Cookmates. Please print Cookmates.

That plus they don't have an invincible boss monster, negation effects, or floodgates Disarm, Parry, War Chariot, Heraklinos. Granted, the former two are kind of bad and Heraklinos needs three fusion materials and has discard cost.

I stand corrected. Too bad their effects don't mesh well with any current pendulums, and that trap isn't as easily searchable as the Yang Zing one is...

I changed my mind about my favourite ritual deck.
It's Cyber Angel/Hieratic/Ultimaya. I might play with making a Cyber Angel/Herald deck instead though. Maybe I should just say "Light Ritual" instead of the "Chaos Ritual" of BLS/Chaos Max or "Water Ritual" of Gishki/Nekroz.

Hey Bunny, would it be possible to make a good Red-Eyes Pendulum deck?

Huh. Pro's AI Sworn deck is actually kinda decent.

Holy s***, Return of the Dragon Lords is broken as hell.

Hey Bunny, would it be possible to make a good Red-Eyes Pendulum deck? I've heard that Metalfoes go with everything (false, they do not go with Ghostricks), but I haven't tried it. Gut feeling is that it wouldn't work but I'll give it a shot. Also, Return of the Dragon Lords is part of the obvious push to make Blue-Eyes Tier 1.

Return of the Dragon Lords also goes well with Red-Eyes Resonator, since it lets you bring back Red-Eyes Black, Red-Eyes Black Flare, and all of the level 8 dragon synchros in the deck.

Yep, I use 3 in my Red Dragon Archfiend deck, just for the synchros, even when I don't use dragons in the rest of the deck.

.... Well. After dueling AI Sworns, I finally understand why everyone hates the dreaded JD and Michael combo.

Metalfoes Red-Eyes actually has some neat tricks. Still working on it though. I'm too lazy to type out a list so here's a picture of the current build: gyazo.com/9027a8ef9c6836c32a12b21a6d3f8658The most prominent "neat tricks" are how any Metalfoe scale can destroy Black Metal Dragon to let you search things quickly, the fact that Summoner's Art can search Metalfoe Volflame or a Red-Eyes, and that Volflame is level 7 for Xyz plays. You might not recognize Red-Eyes Meteor Dragon, Red-Eyes Insight, or Falling Meteor Black Dragon because those are new.

There are... A few of those cards I don't recognize at all. Maybe you could take the time to type it out so I don't have to spend an hour matching pictures to names? Also, I could use some help cleaning up my Red-Eyes Resonator deck a bit. I think it's a bit too cluttered right now.

I'm out and can't check names so I mught get some wrong but...
Metalfoes: 3 x Volflame 3 x Goldriver 2 x Silvird 2 x Steelen
1 x Fusion 2 x Counter 1 x Combination
Red-Eyes: 1 x REDMD 3 x REBD 2 x RE Flare Dragon 1 x RE Meteor Dragon 1 x Summoned Skull 3 x Black Metal Dragon
3 x Insight 2 x Fusion 2 x Return of the Red-Eyes
Other: 3 x Summoner's Art 3 x Painful Choice 2 x Twin Twister
Extra Deck: Falling Meteor Dragon(New RE Fusion) Archfiend Black Dragon (Old RE Fusion) Metalfoes Orichalc Metalfoes Adamante 2 x Metalfoes Mythriel 2 x FullMetalfoes Alkahest Odd-Eyes Absolute, Meteorburst, and Vortex 2 x Flare Metal Dragon N11: Big Eye Dracossack
Things I might change: The number and variety of of Metalfoes Spells/Traps, Return of the Dragon Lords instead of Return of the Red-Eyes, dropping the fusions for consistency (Cards of the Red Stone, Upstart, things like that)

Cyber Angel Herald Star Seraph. I can make a 2800/3800 Herald of Perfection and Evilswarm Ouroboros and still keep 3 fairies in hand. It's nuts.

"Let's make the next Ritual Beast level 4 so E-Tele doesn't matter anyways!"
The effect seems like a Gusto one, fittingly.

Winda's name means she's both a Spiritual Beast, and a Ritual Beast Tamer. Which means I need to condition myself to think that I can fuse Winda and another girl (or an old man that might be younger than her according to lore) to somehow create a girl riding a Super Lion/Dolphin/Leo or an old man riding a Super Hawk.

Weren't you fusing an old man and a lion to make a girl on a dolphin anyways?
Now I'm wondering if being able to de-fuse into 2 level 4s for Xyz could be abused.

Weren't you fusing an old man and a lion to make a girl on a dolphin anyways? You would still be fusing a human and an animal to make a human riding an animal. Now you're fusing a human and a human to make a human riding an animal.
