Players shouldn’t have to wait months for cards to become affordable to play decks past their prime. Just because cards are no longer expensive doesn’t erase the problem that they were outrageous on release.
Three cards that will become irrelevant soon if snake eye gets banned. That's the real problem with the game. You put so much money into cards then they become worth so much less. They should just be cheap from release
@@aka_Ingmar It's not really a hypothetical. This is what happens all the time. Older decks get hit on the banlist to push sales of newer decks. Even if they don't, newer decks that powercreep everything else in the game get released anyway. It's going to happen. Always does
@@yuseifido5706 I'm not saying that that's not the case I've been well aware of that for many years watching and playing the game however with the new feensmith cards and the fact that it's a direct help for said deck it's possible that they might not hit as hard as you hope which would mean bonfire is still a three of card. Mind you that bonfire is still a three of card in a lot of other decks so it'll still be viable
was going to comment this. 8/10 secret slots are currently known (well leaked) and they include the following: 3 main fiendsmith cards (engraver, tractus and link 1) the 2 generic staple hand traps (mulchumy and trap version of ash) the generic link 2 hatter (that sets a trap monster) the 3 main whitewoods cards (most of the rest are apparently also ultras) the main card for the yugi archetype (anhk or whatever it is called).
Imagine paying 150 for the car piece in monopoly and then 6 months later the car gets banned and you have to shell out another 150 for the tophat. That would unironically be better for your wallet than playing this game rn
Fiendsmith = Pay-to-win Sorry to say but, Infinite forbidden video dropped and the comments are off, day 1 w/ 10k views Mtg Bloomburrow video dropped has comments on, 4 hours w/ 70k views Ygo Has fallen off with no casual format besides Edison and no New Players
Fire cards dropped in price because demand for them has slowed down alot. In turn, the Yubel cards, specifically Nightmare Throne and Phantom of Yubel, are both pricey cards (example I got my set of Throne for $90 CAD just before Phantom was revealed, then it spiked has hasn't gone back done to that price since, and I got two Phantoms for $75 CAD each). Make matters worse, since most fiendsmith cards are secrets, it will cost a few hundred more and its an engine many people will want and need heading into Nationals (the day after the set releases btw). I literally cant afford the fiendsmith stuff after paying so much for Phantom. Point is, the Fire cards example downplays the reality, which is, this game is much more expensive than it needs to be and the game does still infact, have a money problem.
They can fix the problem by giving us OCG rarities in ALL SETS, and stop treating the TCG playerbase like paypigs. We deserve better. We deserve to be treated like their OCG customers. I don't get how this is hard to understand.
Ygo is still crazy. I guess just not as crazy. Still not spending 60+ on a set of wanted, 150 for a set of bonfire and witch. Still not good. Not “dirt”. But a rich white boy is not ginna care about card prices.
I live in Aus and I earn above the average wage for my country. I shouldn't have to pick between paying rent/bills or playing a children's card game, where the prices have gone stupid. Not to mention how much fiendsmith is going to be..... If I had the night off to play digimon at my locals I would 100% swap card games. I've been playing yu-gi-oh casually since forever and competitively since 2015.
If we are talking about prizing, Grand Archive also has some really good prizing. I mean shoot, the Winner of Worlds took home a 14k Gold Ring, a Gold Medal, a Promo Card and a bunch of other shit.
I mean I suppose in fairness there is Master Duel and to a lesser extent Duel Links as 'Free to Play' versions of the game. But that doesn't make what's happening with the physical card game acceptable (if anything it makes it even more unacceptable, since there are easily available 'free' alternatives, you should be doing more to encourage people to spend money and play physically).
I find it hilarious how baronne was so expensive. But as soon as they made it available to the rest of the player base. They banned it 😂😂😂. Glad I made about 500 bucks on baronne. Bought the secret in rarity collection and literally lost nothing.
3:05, agreed, the idea of doing chase cards is good but making it a DM, basically custom made card, blue eyes/ dark magician fusion that only casuals would want thats the cover card is bogus.
Some genuinely horrible takes in here. Acting like the format is getting cheaper, are you just pretending that you don't know Fiendsmith isn't going to be the same or worse?
INFO pre orders just went up on sites here in the UK and a 10 card fiendsmith engine is going for £330, £220 for whitewoods. Personally im not a fan of two engines being over £550 ($705), its a bit ridiculous.
If you are dueling you won’t usually have one deck but if you are only playing one deck at a time you’ll have more fun learning even though you want learn about other decks. No one likes losing if the opponent didn’t have to try. That’s why Yugioh is technically wack at times because people wanted to believe they are special due to expensive cards not the heart of the cards. Thanks to these rarity collection besides dueling against snake eyes, you will most likely build your dream deck to find out you still have a lot to learn. I sure did with Heroes and Cyber Dragons, infinite ways to play only one way to lose. People don’t like learning, we got used to copy and paste decks. That’s a true bummer there, reminds me of Yugioh 5Ds or when everyone was on Charizard sack wanted the old school cards and no reason to ever play them. People are collectors at most, players barely any.
That why it baffle me that you tcg peep doesn’t have 1 mayor vote to alltogether protest about this kind of rarity diatribution which inflate the secondary market price
If people have a problem with "woke" it's probably because they're to old to even be in this card game anymore and need to leave. And no I will not apologize for that opinion. Recognizing that people different than you exist and that it's OK for them to exist isn't a bad thing. The content creators who have respect for people different than them even if they don't understand those that are different than them are awesome. And are by far the best content creators. And 99% of the time their content is solely about YGO and they don't talk about stuff outside it unless it's drama(stevieblunder).
@@Lollbunzee clearly you missed my point. 🤦♀️ The intention of what I said was to point out the fact that 90% of the time anti woke people are old asf. The ones that are not still act like old ass boomers with their lack of ability to treat people different than them properly. We're in a community with a bunch of wierdos that literally want to have sex with their "waifu" cards and some of y'all are really bothered by gay or trans people wanting you to treat them like a normal person and not like a pos. The stance is simple. "If you're anti woke you're either to old or to much of a pansie ass loser to be playing this card game" the pansies being the ones incapable of learning about new things and accepting that those new(to them) things are just a fact of life.
@@Hic_Sunt_Leones-o7v No, I didn't. I only bothered to address the first sentence of your post because it struck me as so stupid. Yet you're doing it again with even more absurd attacks on the elderly who, I promise you, don't watch MBT's videos. I'll be clear: the only old people who care about MBT's RUclips videos are his grandparents. The people who mock him are the same people who, for the most part, actually play YGO: people in the late-teens up to their thirties.
@@Lollbunzee Neglecting to actually read a whole post so you can grasp the concept(literally the next couple lines could/should clear things up) is such a annoyingly stereotypical ygo player thing "to many words I'm not reading that, whyd I lose tho?" I really am tired of the ygo players don't read stereotype but somehow you've proven it right. I get it you think I'm attacking old people. But I'm stating the facts the "anti woke" people act like old people with their lack of ability to learn about new concepts and new walks of life. I'm not attacking old people that's just a factual statement that they're usually filled with hate for anything new to them. Just like any of the late teens early 30s losers who have a problem with trans and gay people. Again they'd rather have a problem with us then the wierdos who want to sexualize their cards hell half the time they're the exact wierdos sexualizing their cards.
0:50 II notice that the more woke/liberal the guy is, the wierder he becomes. Like, waifu in a creepy way wierd. Like... like a Drake vs Kendrick Lamar "they not like us" moment.

A year and a half waiting for Spright being reprinted :/
Than after waiting so long said cards get banned ( baroone / savage hits )
In what universe is $120 for three cards cheap?
thats what i was thinking hahahaha

Pointing to fire prices dropping with no YCS on the horizon and a possible banlist coming is a little disingenuous…..
Long answer, Yes.
Short Answer, Yes.
And no im not talking about prizing. Talking about prizing is deflecting from the real issue.
I don't know if you've seen the spoilers but this is actually becoming a problem

Sadly for konami logic is: "they still buy no matter what so if all the do is complain but still buy... Why cares? They buy!"
Are you still buying product? If so why are you still a customer knowing they don’t respect you
@@masterflamewing234 I am not. My most recent meta deck is Labrynth. I have purchased nothing else since.
@LorisEnsatzuken that's probably spot on how they talk about the tcg😂

It's so crazy to me that people still believe that $30 plus cards that you generally need 4 of is affordable
Oh brother, another delusional Yugioh player who thinks a $60 card dropping by $20 after eons is signs of a healthy market 🤦♂️
If we are talking about prizing, Grand Archive also has some really good prizing. I mean shoot, the Winner of Worlds took home a 14k Gold Ring, a Gold Medal, a Promo Card and a bunch of other shit.

in regards to cash prizes if Yu-Gi-Oh were to do them. What would be a good amount of money to win for a regional/YCS prize pool?
5 percent of total entry money.

Rarity collection destroyed the value of my collection. Never gonna invest highly in yugioh ever again
