TCG Time Capsule, the show where we take a look at the trading card games that failed and were destined for the bargain bins. Episode 1: Duel Masters. Duel Masters episode was Wizards of the Coast’s Japanese adaption of Magic: The Gathering that was also sold in the west. How did Duel Masters fair against the juggernaut of anime TCG that was Yugioh?

I always enjoy watching videos covering the history of DM in the West. It may surprise you to know that Duel Masters continues to have a small but dedicated following outside Japan. You can find the channels of some of our community's passionate members in our channels section. Thank you for taking the time and effort to research and talk about a game many of us deeply cherish!
I remember offering a deck to my friend for his birthday when I was in France and kids were playing Duel Masters during breaks at school. Even in France, Duel Masters had glorious days and then... No more products in sight 🙁
Duel Masters was SICK
Do you think it's possible for Duel Masters to come back in English?
At this point, I can see another reboot. But not Duel Master proper.
I think they should Bring Duel Masters Plays to the state side to test the waters if it does well I could see them Bring the physical game back
It's honestly odd that they haven't.
I’m very skeptical. I would love nothing more for them to just port the Japanese sets into English but with how quickly DM and Kaijudo failed I’m not holding my breath.
Possible? Sure. Likely? Absolutely not.
And also not for many years. And not without another name or reboot.
I don't even see PLAYS ever happening.
Great Vid! Love the lack of cuts and that it's basically One-Shot
6:00 looks like my card collection after my mother cleaned the window in my room back in the day...
sadly now duel masters is more fun than MTG imo, after selling my MTG card away for good to buy DM Booster and build all kind of different deck i get to know how other game lack what DM provide for a well balance TCG
So many fun games of duel masters in my middle school years. Great video!
Duel Masters was huge when I was in grade school. I remember people being way more into it than Pokémon. We even played it and it was a ton of fun, we never even attempted to play the Pokémon tcg just collected the cards instead. The game had a resurgence in college at my campus. I think it started with one guy having brought enough cards to play a match with someone and when we remembered how fun it was we made sure to find our old cards at home during the holidays and bring them to college. There were tournaments and everything, it was so fun. Even people who never played it as kids, especially girls, wanted to play it so we shared decks and such. It was also really fun to try being strategic and shake up your deck when it was pretty easy to keep track of your opponents and what they had to work with. Lots of trading too.
This Channel is so important! Keep em comin' Bro!
Those Nickleback times!
shield break, activate terror pit, gets me everytime, its my meth
Duel Masters was my intro to obscure tcgs
SO GLAD you went into the Japanese side of the game. WAY too many people just cover the american history without looking into its japanese roots. Heck i'm REALLY trying to find more of the japanese history of the game because it still goes on today in japan.
What's your favorite Duel Masters card?
Vampire Sylphy!
'best fancy waiter voice' Excellent choice sir,
Ballom
Aqua Surfer
Has to be Petrova!
I miss duel masters, small group of us was playing DM in middle school but yugioh was more popular. Funny enough many people in the DM group started to play mtg in high school.
i love this kind of trading game infack! until now i have doe's TCG & new and latest OCG duel masters trading card's! and i love doe's how support duel masters trading cards and any kindi of flatform within connection in duel masters! god bless you and more power to your channel!
Duel Masters and Bakugan was my childhood. I remember I waiting for years for the new episodes, because episode 52 was open ended. We create new rules for the game on the playground, because as hungarian kids we can't understand the english texts, so we just played as we saw in the series😅. It very sad it failed in the west, but this don't change it's special place in my heart and my memories.
So Yu-Gi-Oh started as MTG parody in the manga and become it's own thing, then Duel Masters become a thing because of Yu-Gi-Oh?
Well, no.
Wizards of the Coast wanted to release MTG in Japan, but it was made suitable and simplified for Japanese oudianes.
It was a success there, and it is the 2nd card game out there next to Yugioh.
RIP this was my introduction to tcg what a tragedy
Love your content keep it up
3:52 - i feel you man... :,,D
Was hoping if you could pretty please talk about Force of Will? We definitely could use more hype for the game. Would be greatly appreciated 🙏
duel masters should get and english translation its pretty excellent
This channel is such an unbelievable resource to GameDevs, thank you so much for all the effort that has taken to produce these videos over the years ❤🤘
I've always wanted to know the mythology of the duel masters creature world
Patreon and discord links don't work.
Thanks for letting us know. This has been fixed.
new SUB
Actually Duel Masters "fixed" the main problems of Magic like the slow game phase reducing the resources to play the card and been more simplified
Just proxy all cards now.
I miss Duel Masters...
Best TCG ever
Oddly, I'm seeing Duel masters decks on amazon go for high prices (it's successor's decks are _much_ cheaper). At least the GBA games are easy to get.
Duel Masters is quite collectable. Kaijudo cards were extremly cheap for the longest time but have been picking up in price lately
The title is wrong. The game IS still rad, and don't they continue with the tcg and the anime in Japan? Isn't it the big anniversary this year?!
If you really want Magic the Gathering manga, you should check out 'Destroy All Humankind, They Can't Be Regenerated'.
You forgot to mention that WOTC didn’t place proper restrictions on the English TCG compared to the OCG and other card games I feel like if they done that they could’ve maybe make it last a little longer
WOTC did place restrictions on kaijudo but the way they handle it was pretty poor they only ban one card and that was it like what the hell was that? Do you think banning one card would fix the meta game have they not been paying attention do you have Konami handles Yu-Gi-Oh in terms of how they ban and restrict cards
It's definitely a factor but the game would almost assuredly not change much in the long term.
They were also starting Standard, but if big daddy Hasbro wanted to shut it down anyway, doesn't really matter.
Also they only introduce one civilization and that is the joker civilization well it’s not technically A civilization There more of a archetype/civilization and they just started colorless and then evolve into the fire and nature civilization
Zero and Joker are both seprate civilizations despite not having dedicated colors
The race of Jokers is also in Water.

This channel is under rated as hell
I don't think mtg is the most popular card game, seems to be the 3rd most, it certainly doesn't beat Pokémon
I just wish theyd translate the online client to English
That would be great!
Shame they haven't translated the smartphone app, big missed opportunity
only played duel masters once
We'll have to fix that 😈
What happened to this dude? And channel?
A year late on this huh? I want to say it's possible, but highly difficult. We have more products on the market, most notably Digimon Card Game. And to have 5 of these card games? I don't think there's really room for it.
But I do think Duel Masters deserves a spot. Its shield mechanic is still unique to it. In the Digimon Card Game(TDCG), security cards don't go into your hand unless specified. In DM, it's possible to brick, like any other card game, but you'll always have mana sources to play. Lastly, it doesn't need pen and paper. To me, that's huge, you just need the cards for it, just like Pokémon. You could introduce mechanics that require tokens, but that can be remedied with dice and maybe some playing cards. Of the big three, only two get played, which both need pen and paper. (And one needs a calculator but let's not talk about that.)
However, I still think that DM would be playing in a rather crowded market, with more niche card games to come. Outside of a big marketing push from WotC, which isn't happening considering what's happening over there and the world, DM won't find market penetration. And that to me is the worst part of it.
Now, I do wish you actually talked about the meta of DM. I haven't played the game, but from what I've heard, because DM was a lower priority product for WotC, it got neglected. To put it in a different light, the meta wasn't being addressed by them, not a restriction or banlist in sight. The competitive meta had devolved to such a toxic state, but nothing was being done about it, which seriously hurt DM as a whole. Couple that with MTG players thinking this was a kiddy game, WotC unknowingly had dug this game's grave for it.
And it's a damn shame. It's not an MTG clone. It's a clone of many card game ideas of the era. To fix the prize system from Pokémon, the shield mechanic was made. To fix mana issues, the every card is a resource rule was implemented. You can see many good ideas here. But unfortunately, it came out at a time that was just so unfortunate to it.
That's a lot of text. If anyone here actually read all of this, my thanks. That a actually means a lot to me.
For those that want a TL;DR: DM is its own game, cloned from the popular card games at the time. It has its own unique and fun set of rules. But, the situation it was surrounded by meant it needed more support, which it never got. I think it deserves another shot, but it needs more support. And I don't think that can happen when this comment was written.
