Sorry just gotta squash some of the annoying comments about rescue hamster Rescue hamster is a good card by modern standards. Fact. Modern yugioh begins in 2013/14, which most competitive players agree that dragon rulers marked the "new school" beginning of the game. Disagree? That's fine, modern yugioh can begin in 2017/18 with link summoning, surely you can accept that? Here's some examples: Rescue hamster has 21 recorded event tops at EVERY level of the game - regional, YCS and even WCQ. In 2018, one of the highest power formats ever in Yu-Gi-Oh!'s history - rescue hamster was in the 2nd place NAWCQ deck. It topped YCS Secaucus 2018 (Trif's first top, lol), Atlanta twice in February 2018 at top 8 and 32 and again a top 8 at the South American WCQ of 2018. Now please leave my boy hamster alone.
WTF XD modern yugioh is current format, not 1 2 and definitely not 5 years ago, you showed him that iron trap solemn judgement copy, if you base modern yugioh in 2017 that card wasn't even out yet. All cards should be evaluated based on a format where all of them are present at the same time (except banned cards). Rescue hamster is a bad card today and that is what matters, not years ago, if you want him to evaluate cards based on 5 years of different formats you should have told him beforehand, or that "where these cards good when they came out". Then you could say that yes it was good when it came out, but then you should let the guest know and don't say "are these cards good now" because now is the current format, also "modern yugioh" as a term could refer to current format, and that will influence a guests decision If you don't say explicitly that you question if the card was good or not when it came out most people will assume you are asking if it's good today also if you say it's a good card in modern yugioh and 2024 is also modern yugioh then it's a good card and also a bad card because it's good in 2018 but not in 2024 and you said both are modern yugioh. That's why it's not a fair point because if you count multiple years then it's both a good and a bad card because yes it may be good then but now it's bad in 2024
I think you need to actually explain what the fuck you mean by "Modern" next time, because I had no clue what you meant and neither did your guest. Most people would not call "modern" 10 years ago, that's a long ass time, especially for a TCG. Even your most recent example is 6 years old.
He got scammed on Rescue Hamster. If the question is "is this good or bad?" and he answers "bad", why bring up that the card was good in MR3/MR4 and deduct a point. He even thought the card was good at 22:10 He judged the card as bad in the context of modern YGO which is true.
@Farfa Duelist Alliance is nearly 10 years old. Rescue Hampster was certainly playable in PePe and Igknight but it was FAR from the most impactful or critical cards in those decks. That's like looking at Anti Magic Arrows in Altergeist format and claiming it's meta relevant. It's not even a bad card, but it's long been outclassed by better options and shifts in the game. PePe wasn't even Pend Soup's most recent meta dominance. Pend Magician was one of the best decks in early link formats even before we got Electrumite and Hampster even at that stage was not good enough to make the cut.
@@TheProgenitor the fact that I don't recall this card on Metalfoes nor Pend Magician is enough to tell me that this card get power crept during Pendulum hay day, let alone after MR4
Man went 5 for 5. There is no way you get 2 pend scales + hamster + one of those pend scales you run at 3 & you didnt draw the other 2 AND you have to still be able to pop the pend scale to get it into the extra. The card is ass in modern standards lol
This is what a lot of us should’ve done. When Act Man, or really any large channel, makes a vid about how they fell out of a franchise, they’re not objectively wrong, but if we want them to give the modern era a chance, then giving them a laid back way to learn about it is one of the better ways to go about that. And if he still doesn’t like modern YGO, it is what it is, he does other content anyway
This community needs to stop reacting with such hostility any time somebody criticizes the game. It makes us all look bad and is legitimately embarrassing to see. I already can't associate with with half the fuckers that play this game because they're porn addicted weirdos with hentai on their game accessories.
You should have given him the point at the end, he was right and you know it. Hamster sucks with the modern rules and against modern decks. Literally rigged.
Fr I feel so bad for him. Yeah some points in his video were stupid but all it came down to was the Actman just doesn't like modern YGO (which is a valid opinion) and everyone in this community was being a jerk towards him.
MBT said his style wasn’t a good fit for a collab video and he called him a plague on the community in response I feel like he proved that take correct. 💀
@@aquasis995 MBT is a plague on the community. game would be better without his whiny casual player but tries to talk about competitive annoying ass. if he just stuck to jank it would be fine but the number of players trying to play competitive modern yugioh who take his uninformed takes as gospel is a huge source of frustration for newer players.
For saying Modern era Yugioh, i would personally view that as within the past three years. Ant got scammed on the Rescue Hamster question, my man actually went 5-5
Nah that rescue hamster take is straight garbage. If you showed him mechanical chaser and he said its bad, would you say he's wrong cause it was good for a very small period of time more than a decade ago? Like thats just bs man. If a card is literally not ever played in recent history its bad. Cant be going around saying la jinn is a good card next to droplet now.
why do you think he had to explain that his fanbase calls him out on Gaslighting? He wanted to trick him and it didn't work, lol. So he had to work around it and make sure Actman got it wrong. "my fans say I gaslight but i totally don't do that, believe me bro" - proceeds to gaslight. :P
The parameters are rating modern cards by modern standards and 2015/16 is still modern era by the rules I'm going by. Mechanicalchaser is not a modern era card, so no, I wouldn't say it would be classified as gold by your example.
@Farfa you just can't classify master rule 4 as "modern era" imo, since it's literally a different rule set. We're not even playing with the same rules as 2015. 2015 is almost 9 years ago. How's that modern man. If the card was good 2 formats ago, sure. But 8 years ago? It's just a stretch. I'd say it'd be fair to call cards introduced in MR5 modern since it's the current rule set, just dont agree that MR4 cards are classified as modern.
@@Unknownz000 Because you have to start modern somewhere in the timeline and in my opinion modern starts around 2013/14. Like how are you going to tell me dragon rulers are not a modern yugioh deck and put them in the same category as la jinn since they'd both be "old school" right? Unless you want to get super technical and create "modern" at 2013, "modern 2" at 2017 which I mean we're just moving arbitrary goalposts so someone has to draw the line somewhere. That person being me, since well, it's my series? I feel like that makes most sense. If people disagree then that's totally okay, but there does need to be a line somewhere for consistency in a video.
That was a 5/5. He guessed it right, and you can't flip/flop if a card is good or bad based on WHEN it was good or bad, which you always do. On top of the gaslighting. You're kinda shit at this sometimes.
Admit it, Farfa. You just don't want someone 5-0ing. You almost had someone else do it recently and you mental gymnasticed them with technicalities. You can't fool us. PS: I love the Rescue archetype. They are adorable.
I appreciate Farfa reaching out to people who are jaded from Yu-Gi-Oh. Still wished MBT handled Act Man a lot better. A potential large new audience was lost out.
At this point it's: "Does Farfa think this is a good card?" and not "X person rating card". You're not even guessing if the card itself is a good or bad card. You're guess what Farfa thinks the card is.
I agree with Act Man, you can't just say Rescue Hamster is good because it was good back when pendelums were good :D Especially since the rules changed. Edit: It topped after the rule changes, so I farfa is right I guess
@@Farfa first thing act said was how you can then combo with the gy which is exactly what decks that play droplet do, then you went ahead and started providing your context I still like you my little goofball yugituber
Picking rescue hamster is such a bad pick, the card is not good now and it wasn't even that good when it came out, how is an unexperienced player supposed to figure out why?
I have literally never heard of Rescue Hamster ever. It's too much set up for our "Modern Era". A better definition for "Modern Era" would be Master Duel Era. You just didn't want to give him 5/5. Also I feel ridiculous feeling frustrated about this but that's because this is a such a dumb interpretation of the question that I had to type this comment. Farfa you did a dumb.
Farfa: 1: Super polymerization. Is it good or bad card? 2: Baronne de Fleur. 3: Ash blossom and joyous spring. 4: Accesscode Talker. 5: Red-eyes Dark Dragoon.
For all the hate the Act Man got on that original vid, he surprisingly didn't do half bad, all things considered, and had some pretty funny chemistry with Farfa
Bruh rescue hamster is NOT a good card in modern. Just because it had tops in MR4 doesnt mean its modern. Anything thats more than 4 years old is not modern. You mean to tell me, that if you were to make a pendulum deck right now, you would consider running Rescue Hamster in your deck list? Bullsh*t
I think a better way to structure the question is: is this a good card now (within the past 2-3 years), was this a good card at some point in the past, or is this card trash? That way no one has to debate what year post modern yugioh started lol. I still appreciate the video though, I like actman. I agree with his points about the game, but I still love and accept the game how it is now. This does show he doesn't just criticize the game from afar and doesn't know anything at all about it anymore. I probably would've gotten that rescue hamster question wrong too lol.
Rescue Hamster is actually a pretty good card in Kitchen Sink Pendulum decks so he isn't wrong about it if we're talking about the card in its prime. As a card it is good, in current day, Pendulums suck in general, so that felt like a trick question.
You don’t understand: everything after LoB is modern Yugioh. By these standards Dark Elf is a banger of a card. No but seriously we can’t consider Modern Yugioh stuff that happened 10 years ago, the rules of the game have changed twice since then.
The thing about Iron Call is that we just haven't been in a format yet where this would see play over other cards. The problem is that its a 1 and done, whereas even a trap like Imperm is still both a handtrap and has a lingering effect if you use it on the board. Imperm also doesn't cost any life points to use. Like, i'm sure we'll see a format eventually where this card is a good side deck choice, but the game would probably need to slow down a bit first. We would need to have an apocalyptic ban list akin to something like the July 2019 list that slows the game down considerably and reverses about 3+ years of powercreep. The way Konami has been balancing the game currently: there's usually a heavy impact on each list, but they don't hit enough stuff imo.
Act man judgement on this is pretty spot on. It's similar to Solemn Judgement and you can't really compare the two until you actually use them both in a format. So if Judgement is good then most likely Iron call is good and vise versa.
besides the stupid rescue hamster thing i like how you just didnt explain to him why iron thunder is actually bad, most likely because even you didnt know why
All I have to say is this dinsosmorfia is getting tops from 2 moths ago hamster is getting tops from 10 years ago please explain to me how this makes sense
The funny thing is ive actually had multiple people flip iron thunder on me this format. In comparison, i havent seen anyone so much as look at hamster in almost 6 years. Even the occasional pend soup decks you play against wouldnt even consider slotting in a hamster because the cards just that powercrept at this point. It makes no sense to be like, we are going to evaluate these cards from a mondern lense, and say that these cards are either objectively good or objectively bad, because the one card has tops from half a decade ago so its good, and the card that was released half a year ago has no tops, so its bad despite the fact that its way more relavent in todays meta (small as it is, any card that sees any play at all is more relavent then hamster.) I dont think any of us would be as mad if he picked a card from like 18-19 that was really good that is still decent today, like servant or electrumite, but picking a card that was only ok and only played in a few pendulum builds back in the day, and is complete garbage today and saying that it is "objectively good" is just wild.
i mean iron thunder is kinda neat i can see a world where people would play this over like solemn strike problem with modern yugioh is just that yknow... you dont always win dicerolls and traps are slow also Electrumite would've definitely been much fairer than hamster... (funny enough normal summon hamster is like electrumite in metalfoes lmao i think you could like goldriver pop steelen set (para)metalfoes fusion normal hamster tribute hamster target steelen summon 2 from deck make electrumite do stuff? )
i think the issue with Iron Thunder is that the decks you'd be using it for are set 4-5 decks, so it actually just has a good chance of popping your own cards
I think Farfa should change the format on how he presents the quiz. Maybe give all 5 cards at once and have the guest rate them first. Then after they’re done rating everything, that’s when Farfa can freely talk about the cards. This way, there will be less chance of gaslighting 😂 TheActMan really deserved that 5/5.
Yu-Gi-Oh master rule 6 bring back the pendulum zones in Yu-Gi-Oh keep the link zones and then all extra deck monsters can be summoned to the monster zones without having to first have a link unless it's a link monster. Freeing up pendulum monsters and all other archetypes supported with pendulum.
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs .linking up for the W video. Edit: wtf was that gaslight. Who cares if the reasoning he has behind that hamster being good wasnt made in with full understanding. He said yes and you manipulated him into no. Triple stacked the gaslighting .Then you told him he was just wrong. lol wtf
The rescue hamster nonsense was bullshit but honestly so was the non answer from Farfa about Iron Thunder. He tells Act Man not to meta game and then his only explanation for why Iron Thunder is bad is related to the fact that it hasn’t seen any tops?
Sorry just gotta squash some of the annoying comments about rescue hamster
Rescue hamster is a good card by modern standards. Fact. Modern yugioh begins in 2013/14, which most competitive players agree that dragon rulers marked the "new school" beginning of the game.

If you don't say explicitly that you question if the card was good or not when it came out most people will assume you are asking if it's good today
also if you say it's a good card in modern yugioh and 2024 is also modern yugioh then it's a good card and also a bad card because it's good in 2018 but not in 2024 and you said both are modern yugioh. That's why it's not a fair point because if you count multiple years then it's both a good and a bad card because yes it may be good then but now it's bad in 2024

He even thought the card was good at 22:10
He judged the card as bad in the context of modern YGO which is true.
Because it is a good card by modern ygo standards, duelist alliance. It has multiple YCS tops during one of the fastest periods of Yu-Gi-Oh.

Yooo, act man is my favorite RUclipsr! So stoked for this and I’m glad farfa is actually nice to him concerning his video.
If you’re calling Hampter a good card then the other Rescue monsters are infinitely more cracked than that
Are they not also good cards?
Iron Thunder is Definitely a staple in Dinomorphia and there has been recorded tops so idk man gaslighted him
nah he went 5 for 5
Hamster was an alright tech card that saw some play but saying it was a good card is a bit of a stretch imo.
You don’t understand: everything after LoB is modern Yugioh. By these standards Dark Elf is a banger of a card.
No but seriously we can’t consider Modern Yugioh stuff that happened 10 years ago, the rules of the game have changed twice since then.
You scammed him on Hamster
act man got 5/5. hamster not good now; iron thunder is a good card just not played
Ah yes. D/D/D , my favorite big shiny monsters that do nothing.

The thing about Iron Call is that we just haven't been in a format yet where this would see play over other cards. The problem is that its a 1 and done, whereas even a trap like Imperm is still both a handtrap and has a lingering effect if you use it on the board. Imperm also doesn't cost any life points to use.
Like, i'm sure we'll see a format eventually where this card is a good side deck choice, but the game would probably need to slow down a bit first. We would need to have an apocalyptic ban list akin to something like the July 2019 list that slows the game down considerably and reverses about 3+ years of powercreep. The way Konami has been balancing the game currently: there's usually a heavy impact on each list, but they don't hit enough stuff imo.
Act man judgement on this is pretty spot on. It's similar to Solemn Judgement and you can't really compare the two until you actually use them both in a format. So if Judgement is good then most likely Iron call is good and vise versa.
besides the stupid rescue hamster thing i like how you just didnt explain to him why iron thunder is actually bad, most likely because even you didnt know why
Farfa gaslight series
I just love when my RUclips content creators from different groups interact with each other. Hey Mr. Distract Man
All I have to say is this dinsosmorfia is getting tops from 2 moths ago hamster is getting tops from 10 years ago please explain to me how this makes sense
Damn ActMan is a crazy guest to get for this. He'd be awesome on the pod since he said he enjoys being able to talk about yugioh
Happy to see TheActMan and Farfa doing a vid together
"My side deck is the rest of the cards I owned" unbelievably based take
the Act Man redemption arc is my favourite season of Yugitube
waiting for the apology video
I love when my RUclips Multiverse crosses over. Now if MeatCanyon could somehow get involved…
The funny thing is ive actually had multiple people flip iron thunder on me this format. In comparison, i havent seen anyone so much as look at hamster in almost 6 years. Even the occasional pend soup decks you play against wouldnt even consider slotting in a hamster because the cards just that powercrept at this point. It makes no sense to be like, we are going to evaluate these cards from a mondern lense, and say that these cards are either objectively good or objectively bad, because the one card has tops from half a decade ago so its good, and the card that was released half a year ago has no tops, so its bad despite the fact that its way more relavent in todays meta (small as it is, any card that sees any play at all is more relavent then hamster.) I dont think any of us would be as mad if he picked a card from like 18-19 that was really good that is still decent today, like servant or electrumite, but picking a card that was only ok and only played in a few pendulum builds back in the day, and is complete garbage today and saying that it is "objectively good" is just wild.
i mean iron thunder is kinda neat i can see a world where people would play this over like solemn strike problem with modern yugioh is just that yknow... you dont always win dicerolls and traps are slow
also Electrumite would've definitely been much fairer than hamster... (funny enough normal summon hamster is like electrumite in metalfoes lmao i think you could like goldriver pop steelen set (para)metalfoes fusion normal hamster tribute hamster target steelen summon 2 from deck make electrumite do stuff? )
"If they have once per turn it must be good"
-Pot of greed has joined the chat-
19 years? Farfa living in the 2033-34 :D
i think the issue with Iron Thunder is that the decks you'd be using it for are set 4-5 decks, so it actually just has a good chance of popping your own cards
The Legendary Colab that i was waiting for!
I just clicked on the video and I have no idea what to expect from this collab.
Frafa logic = White Duston is a good modern Yu-Gi-Oh card
"iron thunder is not a good card"
*Laughs in Dinomorphia*
And what’s also crazy about droplet is that you can dodge stuff with with like imperm
I think Farfa should change the format on how he presents the quiz. Maybe give all 5 cards at once and have the guest rate them first. Then after they’re done rating everything, that’s when Farfa can freely talk about the cards. This way, there will be less chance of gaslighting 😂 TheActMan really deserved that 5/5.
Pends text is truly a nightmare that makes TheBoomerMan zoning out....... 😅😅😅😅😅😅
the collab i never expected
Didn't expect this crossover
I legitimately thought the purple king armageddon was a fake card before this
Yu-Gi-Oh master rule 6 bring back the pendulum zones in Yu-Gi-Oh keep the link zones and then all extra deck monsters can be summoned to the monster zones without having to first have a link unless it's a link monster. Freeing up pendulum monsters and all other archetypes supported with pendulum.
Lmao I knew the debate about rescue hamster was coming, cant believe Farfa is responding to them, feel sorry for the man.
I cant believe I just witnessed a robbery
Now, teach him how to play snake eyes. Show him how far we've fallen.
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs .linking up for the W video.
Edit: wtf was that gaslight. Who cares if the reasoning he has behind that hamster being good wasnt made in with full understanding. He said yes and you manipulated him into no. Triple stacked the gaslighting .Then you told him he was just wrong. lol wtf
i remember playing duel generations and being surprised by combo while powering up my lvl 4 calculator boss monster😂😂😂. such innocence
Are we actually boutta make a real duelist out of him?!?!? 🤯🤯🤯
The rescue hamster nonsense was bullshit but honestly so was the non answer from Farfa about Iron Thunder. He tells Act Man not to meta game and then his only explanation for why Iron Thunder is bad is related to the fact that it hasn’t seen any tops?
Let's fucking go! I'm glad he didn't get put off by the communities nonsense 😅
No Way You got Act Man!
Iron thunder has topped several times and rescue hamster is currently terrible wth?!
