Hardleg tries to see how far he can get on the competitive Master Duel ladder with Memento, a fairly new archetype made mostly of old meme monsters that have been brought back from the grave by crystal magic!

The editing is always so high level, i don't think any other yugituber gets close to it. He really needs to get more attention from the community, he's funny, has enough experience to play the game at a reasonable level and keeps things casual enough so everyone can follow and have fun
joe doesnt edit his videos. Except like the intro and outro
@@yurei3714 i know but still, the others apparently bother less to make their videos with higher production quality
Thank you very much for the praise.
@@yurei3714 I'm responsible for editing the first couple minutes. So the fancy intros are all me :D
Also I go back over the episode after my editor is done and occasionally add stuff in myself. Like, the Volcanic thumbnail at 2:00 was something I inserted.
So I do edit my videos!
Partially. A little bit.
95% the work is done by someone else (Mr Nova in the case of this video), but I help!
@@HardlegGaming yeah that's what I meant xd
The instant i saw the intro. Hardlegs gonna tell us he has friends on the other side. XD
Won't you take a poor sinner's leg?
Are you Ready 😈
1:46:34 addendum to the PSA: The final duel in the Digital Bug solo mode includes handtaps and staples like Maxx C, Imperm, Feather Duster, and Raigeki. Joe was unaware of this prior to making this PSA.
Memento has to be one of the best designs in Yu-Gi-Oh ever. The deck has no locks in any of the cards, and yet you are encouraged to play a lot of the archetype cards. It's competent and doesn't rely on floodgates, like other rogue decks.
Also the resource loop is really tight, it just recycles itself so much throughout the course of a duel.
@@spiritomb108 And it's only going to get better with the next 2 cards
3 and a half hours? Happy to see you were able to finish 1 memento combo!
I’ve never played Memento but I’ve played against it a decent amount and it’s never seemed to be particularly long. Like nearly 2 min? Have I just been playing against noobs?
@@FrostReave You probably played against people that are less experienced, the deck has a ridiculous amount of search but for every search you also have to destroy. Especially in grindier games this deck can time out very easily, even something as simple as searching 1 thing can take like 3 or 4 triggers. The reason you see so many people concede is because if the full combo gets pulled off it takes a very long time for it to finish, most people don't have the patience to sit through that.
@@saveumberto I see. Good to know
As a frenchman, I can confirm not only do our skeletons say hello with "F you", but so does our entire population!
Cranium Burst's battle forcing effect will never cease to be funny, I swear
Bone Back is my favorite card in this whole deck. It's such an anime card since it has, not one, but TWO effects that rely on the opponent just not knowing how to read cards. And both of them are super flashy. Like, insta-summon your 5000 attack boss monster, and if that don't work, just summon EVERY MONSTER IN YOUR WHOLE DECK. No matter how you play it, it's hilarious.
I know this is just probably a huge coincidence, but one thing I realize about memento is that the combo can be long, which can drain so much of your time if you are not fast enough
Which is fitting, the theme of memento is death or specifically a reminder that "we all will die someday". The timer is counting the time you have left before your "Death". If you ran out of time, you "die" But if you are not and you win, it's like the deck telling you "we all will die someday, but not today or now". Which if really fitting with the deck
Again, probably just a coincidence and/or I'm just reading too much into it. But it's neat
The memento combo might look long, but is nothing compared to when dragon link was at full power, or current infernoble.
You're reading too much into it, let's read a book instead 🎉
Nah, the Memento combo isn't that long, what makes it feel long is MD's confirmation boxes, specificaly Combined Creation, you have to go through 5 diferent confirmation boxes just to summon it, or even Horse you will go through 3 confirmation boxes just for it's effect, and both the fusion and goblin will give you 2 confirmation boxes each.
Bro’s having an existential crisis from a deck. That’s funny
I love the editing, all the skeleton clips peppered in, the bones effects and sounds. I giggled at "It's a puppy!" *MEOW* :3
Thank ya.
Joe channeling that Dr Facilier and Voltaire energy today.
And I am here for it. lol
Petition to have Joe include Battle Fader in his next Ladder Climb here. What? The jingle's catchy af. Almost as good as the Nibiru one.
Battle Fader is useless going second and all it does is buy time *assuming they don’t put up a negate before battle phase* it’s better to have actual interruption
@@FrostReave So you've never heard Joe play it then.
@@neoneanderthal2658 It’s irrelevant whether he’s played it before with very specific decks, it’s still a bad card
@@neoneanderthal2658maybe he can use it for a throwback challenge
Maybe a bit early for this archetype as it ain’t Halloween yet but let’s see if the power of the spooky skeletons can overcome the age of fire.
Saddest part is all those loses right at the end. The format of MD can only be saved by the banning of Maxx-C.
Again the production quality for the episodes seem to get better with each episode. Cudos to both Joe and the editor.
Thanks!
I did my master climb with Memento last cycle, and I got a surprising amount of play out of bone back... I usually searched it at the end of a standard combo line, and it made it to where I could have my field wiped, and still keep all my backrow/memento handtraps live. Granted, since I only ran one copy, and had to search it, any opponent who could read would be able to play around it if they had the right tools... but I mean, this is YGO. Ain't no one gonna read the cards you search, even in the higher ranks. XD
Tell your editor that I loved the skeleton jokes.
😁
Personally I’m not a huge fan of mementos as I find their playstyle sort of boring but only HARDLEG can get me invested in the deck also Mr nova editing is cherry on top of
Thank you very much!
Don't know if it has been recommended previously, but I would love to see the climb attempted with paleos. It is surprisingly competent and fun. You can even do some funny things with cards like magical hats, which is something that almost no other deck can claim
Oh a Joshua enjoyer :D, but in that deck transaction rollback is actually more busted than usual it makes so many plays possible, but joes video would be 10 hours with that deck lol
You can definitely get to master 1 with Paleo thanks to transaction rollback, the thing is that each and every game can take more the 30 minutes...
Nova ya really killed it with this one
Thank you very much.
the Final Jeopardy music in duel 7 every time Joe stops to think about what he's trying to do is such a perfect touch
I hope Paleozoic get voted for one day
That's top tier RUclips content.
I hope Vaalmonica gets voted for eventually. Not only does it have a fresh and completely unique playstyle, it's more competent than its given credit for, and in stark contrast to Memento generally doesn't much care about the bug at all
it also has like 5 cards in md, which is hardly a deck, plus he already did a lets learn and it didnt really clicked with him. So not sure
@@FirstBakanot true, it has all its cards minus the stuff in INFO. that's 13 cards
I wouldn't say fresh or unique more like recycled, it has a monster steal and the link can attack a bunch but other than that it's just pend at the end of the day.
@@LilyApus"it's just another pend deck" is reductive, it plays like almost no other pend deck out there
that's like saying vaylantz is "just another pend deck" (ignore how it's being played and look at how it was designed)
@@LilyApusdude, it is not another pend deck, it’s extremly unique in what it does but the thing that’s bad is the things it does is just bad. But it isn’t like any other pend deck
always love having your videos in the background while i work its nice
2 hardleg videos in a row? thanks Joe, you're spoiling us 🥳🥳
Man, the editing is so 🔥🔥🔥🔥, i love it!
Glad you liked it.
I always look forward to the intros in this series. So creative!
I love the editing! It really enhances the video experience!
Thanks.
Editor went crazy, i offer thanks for your hard work editor-san
Now that was some horrendously bad luck there at the end
I played Memento for a long while, I would always have 2 Combined Creation, because it's special summon is in fact not once per turn. (Worth noting Combined Creation can be destroyed in hand or discarded for activations and is considered a name for the summon of a different Combined Creation. It's really fine to open one in hand, that just means you don't need to waste a foolish burial or search on it.) Also you definitely need more than one spright elf, and I would run 2 of each of the little guys for much higher consistency and leaving more cards behind in your graveyard for returning to hand with Ghattic. You can abuse spright elf very hard by getting cards back when spright elf summons Ghattic rather than when it specials itself, and also you need spright elf to protect Combined Creation. I would even run 1 copy of the protection card that would summon out my second copy of Combined Creation if they nibiru me or lava golem or whatever so that the negates would still be online.
Love your Content
I like it when you sing
then I always sing along
i hope you had fun with this deck cause I sure did, I don't know why but this archetype is so fun to play and it was also kinda nice seeing you play it.
I'd love to watch Hard Leg go for Blue-Eyes and the millions of versions you can do
Maybe someday...
Oh the editing is fire!! Let’s go this is the deck I chose this season as well!
Thank ya.
Also, funny enough, for a time, I was running one copy of evenly as a crossout target... felt like that card was glued to the opponent's hand for a long while.
Love memento hope they continue to support this deck in the future hopefully they give it a link monster and summon skull as the level 6 monster and a way to deal with spell and traps similar to the yubel fusion monster
Also keep up the good work hardleg your very entertaining hope your hard work continues to pay off
I would love them to keep taking dogshit vanillas from 1999 and retraining them into boney crystal bois, accompanied by dogshit vanilla fusions as bosses or extenders.
This archetype has a lot of potential going forward in terms of monster design.
Well, it's late today but I know what I'm doing tomorrow before work, thanks for the new video hardleg
I am here for all the skeleton puns
Looking forward to when Conqueror and Sheep get added.
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I was in stream, awesome recap, awesome games. Love you ❤
The editing was very good here still as always but it did border on being over-edited this time around. It became slightly distracting after a while
Hearing the ed,edd n eddy that's my horse song brought a tear to my eye. Right in the childhood lol.
Love this series
LADDER CLIMB LETS GOOO
The Editor needs a raise :)
The jokes between the duel were gone too fast for reading but the Rest of the edits were awesome 🎉😂
I prefer Nolan's Memento Ladder Climb where Joe starts in Master I and uses tattoos and notes from his future self to lose a bunch and end up in Diamond V
Yet another master class on comedy.
I don't even know what a memento does but I'm here for Joe
Well this was entertaining.
A tip if someone wants to play memento. Something that worked for me was playing a 42 card deck with 2 of every little guy and 2 horses. It makes them feel less like bricks
i think this one is the longest video with the least amount of duels in ratio, i need someone to confirm
The editing of the intros have gotten crazier and crazier
And we are all here for it
1:04:46 I gotta hand it to you editor, you definitely made me laugh
I just had to go all out on that one.
Great video as always man unfortunately we're yet to see full power memento specially combined conqueror isn't out yet
I just finished the Gold Pride video and am excited to get a fresh new ladder climb! What great timing.
Hopefully you like this one as much you did with the Gold Pride one.
Memento making opponents FF out of boredom, really embodying that Mr Bones' Wild Ride energy.
I'm sad for no pack opening but my goodness, the editing is so good.
The intentional slow play and "baiting" Evenly in that Salad game was the highlight of this video
6 mins ago lets gooooo!! Been waiting the whole month for this vid ❤❤❤ thnx for everything Mr.hard
I hit the bell yesterday and am immediately rewarded
The horse is AMAZING!
It is!
Oh no, not the skeleton dead jokes D:
Memento really is the deck that yugiboomers think every modern deck is, obnoxiously long combo to end on 5 negates.
I truly love the rock song, if mtv still played music videos this should be one of them. It the most beautiful, diabolical, demonic, and loving songs I’ve ever heard. It’s so good to know you’ve got a friend… with a rock, who cares.
I am, in fact, a That's My Horse enjoyer.
Yes hardleg, please fed me more content
At 37 minutes and hes on diamond 3. I feel like bad things happen as time goes on.
9:00 lmaooo my boy hard leg knows all the songs.
This must be Montezuma's revenge
I always practice against 3 different types. The plunder solo, the new naturia deck, and then usually a flavor pick I'm feeling.
I really want to see Hardleg play earthbound; I feel like he'd be able to make a deck with Earthbound servants and an earthbound immortal well
I'm not a miracle worker.
@@HardlegGaming Cmon, Earthbound Runick is a fun deck, Im sure you could slip in a Cachu Chalua or something 😭😭
@@spartan4613 lol even if I wanted to, it's up to the Patrons. They pick the decks, so they are who you gotta convince.
In the first duel vs. Machina, Machina Ruinforce's special summon is inherent, it doesn't start a chain thats why you couldn't use called by. I love Ruinforce so much.
Yeah I know. I was hoping to use called-by after it was sent, but before it summoned. There should be an activation window there if I hold down the chain button.
I kinda wanna play this now
It's 50:23 for anyone wanting to hear joe sing big as rock, one of my fave tunes
Not Memento enjoyer, but I love how unique deck without Komoney making it too generic and OP is able to compete with giants.
Vaalmonica is another example.
Isn't that one of the Duel Logs of the Duel Logs Duel Logs' many channels? Frankly forgot this one existed
36:22
Imagine painful choice with this
Editor is giga based for liking nickleback. Plz people form your own opinion abt them, I will always defend nickelback bc personally there music is to genuinely good to me. Like every band has flops, that’s normal in the music industry. Sorry I didn’t want to turn this into a nickleback rant but someone has to do it.
Duel 21...Chef's kiss! Meme deck best deck!
Also, duel 123 was just unreal!
omg is that the phantom of the opera?
Praying hard patrons will vote Vaalmonica for August
You know "raw hard leg" is a eild name
Get an Apolusa on board for 11 negates with cc
Since you're doing pendulums this month, I'm really hoping that next month is Yubel or Centurion. One is my favorite character in GX while also being a great new archetype, and Centurion just looks really fun.
Only time will tell. The patrons are a fickle bunch.
@@HardlegGaming amen to that.
Yo editor maybe if you're gonna put text on screen keep it up for longer than 0,2 seconds. Can't read it fast enough and ain't no way I'm rewinding every time.
+1
Hey, not finished with the video yet but I do hope you start including a decklist you recommend at the end of the videos too. I'm sure that a vast majority of the time whatever the last deck is the one you recommend but I'm a dunce and don't realize that.
50:44 I can't believe it's taken this long to have an edit for the Nibiru song and it's perfect.
BTW, RUclips question for Hardleg, I like to pepper some comments throughout the video sometimes and I wanted to ask if I should keep them all in a reply chain to one comment, keep editing the initial comment, or is it fine if I continue doing this?
I think I'd personally prefer it if you kept all the comments in one reply chain, but it's not a big deal either way so do whatever makes you comfy :)
I don't think RUclips differentiates between the different methods on an algorithmic scale.
Although, If you want me to read the comments I wouldn't edit them, because there's a chance I'll miss the later edits.
@@HardlegGaming I think I'll go for the reply chain going forward. My usual way would bloat the comments. Love the long content but that also means there are so many more things to talk about in a single video so yeah... This one especially. The editing on this one in particular by the editor is great
2:48:40 bro sweared at us and tought we wouldn't notice
French skeletons really be like that. That also wasn't the only time I used that punchline.
Surprised that you didn’t wait for Combined Conqueror to get released. But, if the patrons want to get spooky who am I to complain.
Memento RAAAAAAGHH!
48:04 I was about to complain isn't it supposed to be the trom-BONE but I just noticed that your editor wrote Second lmao
2:22:29 I recommend music by Falcom, specifically tracks from the Trails and Ys series. Great electronic rock.
Duel 30 best duel. Very silly.
3:23:16 *Blame It On Bad Luck by Bayside playing in the background*
Kaijus: 😏
Yesss
Nothing really matters, anyone can "C"
I love this archetype; hopefully Konami omages other iconic normals in a future wave of support.
Also, is it bad if my solution to the Maxx C Tax is to run three D.D. Crow, two Called By, three Ash? It gives me more hate in rogue strat's- like the one this episode and most of his ladder climbs.
Memento with Horus 😅
Ghattic and Goblin are both fiends, so you can actualy run a small unchained package in mementos with Sharvara + escape of the unchained in the main deck + Yama, Soul of rage and soul of anguish in the extra deck.
It's probably not good strong enough for master rank, but it's a fun one.
Another option would be to use Spright Elf.
Also where the fuck did you find all those Nibiru users? I guess Nibiru becomes more common in plat, diamond and master ranks, because even in the duelist cup i barely saw any nibiru.
