NOVA Scale

Novelty - Performages weren't the first strategy to care about swarming the field to enable extra deck summons, and they certainly weren't the last. Their quirks surrounding burn effects, largely to themselves, DOES as a fun pinch of spice, basically making it so a PURE version would rarely have to care about the downsides while keeping them generic if you wanted to pay the price, but the price was generally so small that it didn't stop people from doing it anyway! Basically, cool concept, still spamming. 2/5


Objectivity - The funny thing is that Performages are, by themselves, not really oppressive. If anything, they're really good at raising the ceiling of any compatible deck, not imposing any locks while giving you access to many extra deck cards, a feature that's only gotten better with the introduction of Link monsters. It could be said that they're TOO good at doing that, but if that were the case, it would be seeing play well into today's environment, and the odd Trick Clown splash in big mill decks hardly qualifies. Maybe this will change with the new update, but for now, I think these cards are just Fine. 5/5


Versatility - I think we've actually touched on this in the previous two sections: Almost any deck can use these to prop up the game plan they're already working towards, coving for a variety of situations. Discard, milling, Rank 4 access, Link Climbing, you name it and the mages can do it. Heck, with the introduction of Water Dancer, we now have a way to search AND recycle Polymerization in pendulum decks, adding a whole new angle to ones looking to fusion summon. They may not be the most powerful engine option, but they are the most malleable. 4/5


Awesomeness - These new cards are so sick, and honestly, I miss playing with the old ones! The Animation Chronicles cards feels like the perfect extension of the theme's goals, letting you combo off without a care in the world, WHILE embracing the burn damage aspect that was honestly their only real unique property. 5/5


Total: 16/20

Okay, "Human Resourcerer" was a great name to toss off as a gag.

[williamsloan]

So, does this mean we aren't doing the NOVA scale anymore? Crying shame if so, I really liked it

[Heavenly]

I can't believe Arc V made TWO DIFFERENT CIRCUS ARCHETYPES and decided to give the better designed of them to a tertiary villain character and not literally the MAIN PROTAGONIST. Seriously most Performapals are either hideous, has no role in a circus, or both.

[deathhorse]

I like to imagine hat tricker goes from its ViVi self on the card to a Gigachadified version of itself when it reaches 3 counters 😂

[ianr.navahuber]

8:13 Ahm.... I suppose this was written before it was announced it will be released with an errata
10:11 so it was addressed

[TheWizardMus]

When i watched Arc V for the first time with knowledge of the Performage monsters, i thought they would be Yuya's Dad's deck, and with Dennis looking up to Yusho i was certain he'd be revealed to have copied Yusho's deck. I wish Dennis vs Yusho was a full duel and not 1 turn and then Yusho ran away

Some archetypes you can talk about:
Iron Chains
Venom
Dinowrestlers
Roids
Gadgets
Harpies

Blue Eyes (or Eyes of Blue)
Allies of Justice

Banger intro
Got jumpscared by it though

[absoul]

hmmm, Hat Tricker is an Earth attribute. I think my Vanquish Soul deck just got a new card.

[frankyquilavafireblast]

Also, these guys are really useful for teaching new players how to use an understand certain special summon mechanics and to make rank force

[EthanKironus]

Ever since I heard him say "It's Showtime!" in gratuitous English in his duel with Yuya, I have been cursed with the mental juxtaposition of Dennis and PoH from SAO. I'm sorry, but I can't unsee it! Just look up "it's showtime SAO, " you're welcome.

[polocatfan]

erratas are fine if they allow the card to see play. nobody benefits from a card on the banlist.

[rafaelbrites]

perfomage was the most powerful pendulum archetype in all of the yu gi oh history. it was so versatile that they even without all his cards adapted at time until the deck was dead.

[Yunglex]

That Wavering Eyes rant gave me an idea. Nova, have you considered shorts covering the shorter card storylines? The story around Risebell the Star Adjuster would be perfect for that.

[gameoverlord]

Hey GoldenNova I have a question for you that might be a good idea for a video.

In the game of Yu-Gi-Oh; which extra deck type monster is the most useful, versatile, and powerful in general? Fusions, Synchros, Xyzs, Links. I guess also Rituals as they are kind of like Extra deck monsters in away.

I've always wondered about this when I was talking to a friend who primarily uses Synchro extra deck monsters, while I like to use mostly Fusions & Xyzs.

[raymondsdocumentaries]

If people were scared of Plushfire, then Shadow Maker is going to traumatize people ✂️☻

[President-of-Funny]

guys.... i dont wanna say anything.... but I think Nova's just a thought

[utlukka]

Wonder when we're gonna get a Performapal archetype review. I would imagine it's gonna be a... LONG review video that'll need to be split up into several parts (probably 2-3).

[Truthhurts]

I hope they give this deck more support. Hopefully
