PHANTOM NIGHTMARE Brings New Decks and Strengthens Tier 0 YU-GI-OH! Strat

Earlier this month, Konami released Phantom Nightmare for the Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game. This set brought three new archetypes and support for a variety of existing archetypes including Yubel, Snake-Eyes, and more. One of the stand out cards include Iron Thunder, which is like Solemn Judgment but for effects instead of summons. There’s also Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames which found its way into the Extra Deck of the winners of the recent YCS Las Vegas and the runners up. The three new archetypes are Ashened, Goblin Biker, and Voiceless Voice. The third of those saw some play at the recent YCS with 5 of the decks from the Top 16 teams. The other two didn’t make it that high, but as I understand it Ashened still needs a little more love before it can take off.

Konami was kind enough to send me a box of Phantom Nightmare to open up and you can check out my pulls down below. What’s your favorite of the new archetypes? What’s the most underrated card from the set? Along with Phantom Nightmare, you can check out the new 25th Anniversary accessories featuring Yami Yugi (aka Atem or The Pharaoh) and Kaiba. There’s a duelist portfolio that can hold 180 cards, a deck box, 100 card sleeves (50 for each character), and a cloth playmat. Sadly, the playmat doesn’t have the zone outlines which is a personal preference, but it does all look nice. Check it all out below!
