Update: I told Mokuba nothing, and then we watched your video last night - and he LOST his mind! Just at being mentioned, he was already jumping up and down, but then when he realized your generous gift, the whooping started 😊 As you do oh so regularly, you have made a kid (and thereby his father) SUPER happy and I cannot tell you how awesome your desire to do this really is! Thanks so much for being who you are!!
I mean, where to begin?! Mokuba is at school right now, but I will watch this with him when he gets back (as is our habit) and I know he will just hit the ceiling (I'll post a follow-up detailing his reaction/response because he will want me to send is own words/message to you 😊). I really appreciate the kind words, but for us, it is really you who are the kind and awesome one. 2+ years ago, I wanted to use Speed Duel as a way to introduce my young kid to YGO, but I am honestly super inexperienced myself. You have been nothing short of a mentor and guide for us, because we use all of your builds (keeping them all ready to go in boxes) and that is what we play against each other. We watch your videos together and learn so much from you every time. And you are so kind to humour Mokuba's (and my) interests and make decks for stuff he (and I) love! As a result, 2+ years later, I have a kid who is an avid YGO fan, who I play with all the time, so you have really been instrumental to our quality time together. SO THANK YOU SO MUCH! You are so generous, and your card choices for us are just amazingly spot on. We have neither of them, and will actually immediately start off by figuring out a way to add them into our favourite Speed Duel decks and play with them immediately - because they look awesome, and since Mokuba and I play only with each other, we often ignore strict limitations. For example, a while back you kindly did a "What If" build at Mokuba's request that was "What if Exodia was in speed duel", which we built immediately, and it is still something Mokuba chooses to play against me on a weekly basis. About signatures, since we are going to play with them, and since you gave us the choice, I think we'd prefer them unsigned because (a) the card art is beautiful and Mokuba is forever loving and inspecting cards' art work, and (b) Mokuba is still at the point where he needs to read card effects mid duel and is still young enough that he is perfecting his reading and needs to be able to see text unobscured. I hope that is okay. ... Re. today's deck, OMG, another treat that Mokuba will especially love! He was so pumped for Grave Keepers when we opened the box, and he already loves playing the 3x Ishizu build you did, so we will use this to upgrade that deck! But we also will eagerly await the full power version you mentioned too!
This fills my heart, that my hobby helps you both have an awesome relationship. I will respect your wish that those 2 cards remain as is, and will get them in the mail shortly. Perhaps in a month or so, I'll make a short series what if builds using your new fusions. Have a great day my friend.
@@CasualDuelist Seriously, it fills my heart that there are people like you who enjoy helping families really enjoy their time together! A 'what if' serious for Speed Duel would be so amazing! The way you built the Exodia deck was so awesomely fair and balanced that it really is a delight to play and play against! All the best to you and Celestial!!!

Injection Fairy Lily and D.D. Warrior were such stellar reprints. Congratulations Mokuba and Adam
Great deck ideas.
