Pros

Inherent Special Summoning effect.
Good stats.
Can destroy multiple opponent monsters.
Searches deck for the monster when he is sent to the graveyard.

Cons

Cannot attack the turn it activates removal effect.
Can only destroy face-up monsters.
Coin toss effects are inconsistent.

Tips

DARK Machine is a fairly common attribute-type combination. Some archetypes with this combination include Ally of Justice, Genex Ally, and Jinzo.

Cyberdark

Cyberdark monsters are almost all DARK Machine-type monsters so you won’t have any trouble summoning Desperado Barrel Dragon. Desperado Barrel Dragon also offers monster removal and high base stats that none of the Cyberdark monsters have. Use Cyberdark Cannon to search for Machine-Type Cyberdark monsters.

Arcana Force

Arcana Force I - The Magician

Arcana Force III - The Empress

Arcana Force IV - The Emperor

Arcana Force VII - The Chariot

Arcana Force XII - The Hanged Man

Arcana Force XIV - Temperance

Arcana Force XVIII - The Moon

Barrel Dragon

Two of Desperado Barrel Dragon’s effects functions well with other barrel dragons. Because Barrel Dragons are DARK Machine-types they can fulfill Desperado Barrel Dragon’s Special Summoning condition. Also, they all have coin flip effects making them searchable by Desperado Barrel Dragon.

Coin Toss Support

Second Coin Toss

Proton Blast

Second Coin Toss lets you retry your coin toss to get a better result. Proton Blast gives you additional effects based on the number of heads. Additionally Proton Blast can be banished from your graveyard to make all of Desperado Barrel Dragon’s tosses heads.

Don't say like you can beat this card easily. You can beat it once and it will come back and haunt you 10 times after that.

Vendreads are only good if you buy out a main box twice and a mini box three times. F2P players can get it but only if they save up for like a month or two first.

TRY OTHER GAMES

its price is 3$
I bet you never played some other card games, they are all more expensive.

I tried another popular fantasy card game, I can’t say the name because you will immediately start screaming that this is an advertisement from a competitor lol

Unlike Yugioh, I own a complete premium collection there due to crafting system. I spent only 5$ on the starting pack and 13$ on a single player expansion game. I still have a lot of resources to instantly craft any new cards

can you make someone lose the special summon effect from desperado when destroying monsters with treacherous?

No, because Desperado's effect cannot miss the timing.

Be careful about spending money, if only you don’t want to buy a new EX deck every month.
(of course this can be compared with a paid subscription but nonetheless ..)

It’s strong only because meta is very favorable for this card now.

Most decks have no room for traps and pure trap based decks suck to Six sams.

This may change at any time.

Honestly, Desperado will probably remain powerful for quite a while yet. I expect we'll get a non-destruction removal card soon (think like Karma Cut, Phoenix Wing Wind Blast, Compulsory Evacuation Device, something like that), which will help, but won't drop it out of top tier.

I mean, that’s why the latest 6 sam card was limited- it was non-destruction bouncing removal.

Sams also have dual wield- even more non-destruction removal

As long as Desperado has that effect you either get screwed or join the meta
