I'm sad speed duel is going away because it was a cheap way to get good foils and super accessible to play. But it's not surprising because it's obvious every time I go to my cardshop you can tell the same boxes just sit for a year
Card shop customers are generally meta players and Speed Duel is a casual format. Although there's a lot of unfair prejudice towards Speed Duel in the advanced community.
Not in these last two sets, they're not. They were only good quality when they were made in Europe. These were not and are terrible quality. As you can see in this very video, there are bunches of them damaged because North American production does that constantly. It was never a thing when it was being produced in Europe. When they stopped production in Europe, they should have just stopped production on it period. These last two sets should never have been printed.
The secret rares in Speed Duels sets are different! The sparkles are more rainbowy and colorful which makes them pop. I wish normal secret rares looked like this. (Minus the speed duel stamp.)
It's kinda sad that speed duel is going away. I thought it could become the irl duel links and would go on till 5DS at least. The speed duel secrets will be missed. They were the best. And they gave a solid stack of promos as a last going away gift
Speed duel was one of my favorite sets especially the secret rares I do agree they overshadow the tins by a lot since the secret rares look a lot better than the prismatic. So sad they are going away 😢
I actually really like speed duel sets, it's a fun format. and the fact that it contains reprints of cards that sometimes are very expensive or just not available is very nice. Shame it's going away, but cool that it's going out with a fun set and error cards
Just getting into speed duel now that it’s ending unfortunately, but I have plans to build a sort of cube with all the speed duel cards. Wish the format still had official tournaments at LGSs
It is sad to see it go, for the older yugioh fans, battle city was the coolest thing ever. Me and my little brother used to make Lego Duel Disk for our arms 😂
I always thought Speed Duel was rather interesting. They reprinted a lot of good cards as commons so it made it super easy to get certain things really cheap.
Love speed duel gonna miss this!! Me and my brother do are in duel nights with making speed duel decks, still gonna play but sad there will be no more!! Love your vids ruxin!!
Recently got back into collecting again when Bonanza released - I don't know anything about a lot of the newer format stuff but nothing beats the nostalgia of ripping a pack and getting excited when it's shiny!
I'll miss speed duel, the card quality is sooo good, hope they start printing all other cards like speed duel cards, better looking front side and colors, they're thicker and even the foils look better It's blasphemous we didn't get this in Europe, I'll have to spend a lot on getting these cards
Almost want a set of those "Asura Priests" just for the lolz. Makes wonder about listing legality at tournaments for cards like these. Also wonder if they are dropping Speed Duel in favor of maybe starting a physical "Rush Duel" format over here. Maybe? (I just want some of the Rush Duel cards cause they look pretty nice.)
According to TCG, there are 33 prismatic secret rares, 217 commons. Bonanza did the whole 281 QCSR / Platinum and then the Secret Rare, UR, SR have 81 (meaning 200 cards are only found in platinum / qcsr reprint, which is really cool)
I’m very sad to see speed duel come to an end. It really brought me back to my childhood playing these cool anime themed decks. I even used this to teach my friends how to play. So many good times were had with these sets and they will be dearly missed ❤
That’s kind of like how the megatons were where you could get regular secrets. There is the megatons prior the 20 2110s you were able to get ultra rares in the very back of the pack. I actually got a couple of error packs that way on video.
I liked speed duel but I’ve never played it. I got one box a couple of months ago and got some good rare pulls. But now I have 8 speed duel decks I will probably not be able to play unless my buddies want to get together and try it out.
Guess it was good I mentioned that this was coming out on your whatnot stream, I love this set, cards look awesome and I didn’t know there was error cards. Very cool happy holidays everyone
Sad to see it leave. It’s great for casual play with friends and family on game nights. Also a great learning aid for those just entering into the realm of Yu-gi-oh! The classic nostalgia will also be missed with these sets. I’m sure a lot of us hope that someday it will make a return. Love the channel man, keep up the great content! Happy holidays! 🎅🏻🎄
I liked Speed Duel sets like this for cards that aren’t printed as often, sometimes even first time prints of old vanillas that otherwise weren’t localized for the TCG. Sad to see it go.
I think it is unfortunate they are shutting down speed duel, when they didn’t fully support. Hopefully we will get more side sets in place of speed duel releases
Big homie love your vids. But is there anyway i can buy that error ra sphere mode of ya? Cuz i wanna say to some i normal asura priest and all they see is big ball
Loved Speed duel from the get go. It's how i got back into YGO. Sad to see it go. Even sadder that we in South Africa haven't received the last 2 Speed duel sets😢😢
Just sad how they managed Speed Duel. It got me back into the game and I really appreciate this format. Not only is it not been continued we in europe won't even get these last two boxes. What a shame. Some of these Secret Rares look so good!
speed duel has been a blast, i haven't played much of it but the amount of reprints of classic anime cards has been great, wish we got a few mor ocg vanillas in this set but over all like the secret pool
The prismatic secrets look really nice, and I don't mind the nostalgia reprints, but I feel like they did so many of these already. Why not choose some other more obscure nostalgia cards to get these treatments? Would've been cool to see something like Curse of Dragon get a SCR upgrade, etc.
Just got one of these yesterday Got some nice promos including injection fairy but no error however I did get the prismatic maxx c which is about 22 bucks
It's Sad As It Was A Great Way To Get Better Quality Foils And It Was Fun To Play. It Was Great For People Who Were Just Getting Into The Game To Get The Classic Cards. It's Really Cool That Their's A Chance To Get Error Cards In This Set!
In conclusion, it’s not that disappointing that Speed Duels are being discontinued, this final set gives fans one last chance to enjoy the format’s charm and nostalgia before it fades into history (already did tbhj). It’s a celebration of simpler dueling times, and for those who loved it, this set is an likely emotional farewell to a beloved but brief chapter in Yu-Gi-Oh!'s long history. And man, that Lilly is awesome, favorite pull in the video (and in the PSV) Keep up the good work man, love ya!
Speed duel is such a good way for old fans to play the game without having to learn all the new rules and mechanics. But hey it also didn't sell much so i get it. This set seems super sweet though!
I wish this was available in the UK. It's a cool set. Maxx C was surprising, but it isn't all that broken in Speed Duels. It doesn't have so many special summons, and you can deck out a lot easier with it too. I am disappointed that there is yet another printing of the same god cards though. It's not so big a deal considering how many promos you get.
Speed duel had a great potential that Konami didn't manage to innovate. They could have introduced xyz and pendulums like Duel links, but they decided to stand still with 2002-2010 type of cards 😅 What I'm gonna miss the most are the old japanese vanilla cards they start to bring into tcg in the early days of this format

I got one gx super discounted at a local toy store and was one of my favourite buys

I hope they go up in price if they are allowed to be played in standard formats overtime regularly.
@@No1ANTAGON1ST They always have been legal to play in standard format.
wtf happened at 1:06 just a random frame of Ruxin staring at the camera and it says metal lmao
@2:02 - Bro's been opening so many packs he automatically adds a "century" anytime he sees the word "quarter".
lol
This is a great catch lol😂
Such a shame the last 2 speed duel sets haven't been available in the EU, the speed duel secret rares are the best quality cards of all time imo
Not in these last two sets, they're not. They were only good quality when they were made in Europe.
These were not and are terrible quality.
As you can see in this very video, there are bunches of them damaged because North American production does that constantly.
It was never a thing when it was being produced in Europe.
When they stopped production in Europe, they should have just stopped production on it period.
These last two sets should never have been printed.
@@RunicSigils But you have to admit. Asura Priest as an egg is really cool.
If you like Speed Dueles keep playing, maybe it helps to get konami aware and they release a new era in the next years
I love the quality of the speed duel cards! They look really nice
The secret rares in Speed Duels sets are different! The sparkles are more rainbowy and colorful which makes them pop. I wish normal secret rares looked like this. (Minus the speed duel stamp.)
It's kinda sad that speed duel is going away. I thought it could become the irl duel links and would go on till 5DS at least.
The speed duel secrets will be missed. They were the best. And they gave a solid stack of promos as a last going away gift
I love speed duel sets you can actually make a good deck with a few cards from different sets. Classic reprints are the best ones for me
Speed duel was one of my favorite sets especially the secret rares I do agree they overshadow the tins by a lot since the secret rares look a lot better than the prismatic. So sad they are going away 😢
I have bought a couple of the speed duel sets. I wish Konami would have released this in Europe, as it looks like such a great set.
2:48 (of a set of 30) fine print after the 9
I know very little about speed duel, but I’ve always been a fan of the pre-built character decks they release
Very cool to see modern common errors. Speed duel looks nice.
I actually really like speed duel sets, it's a fun format. and the fact that it contains reprints of cards that sometimes are very expensive or just not available is very nice.
Shame it's going away, but cool that it's going out with a fun set and error cards
I will attempt to do Speed Duel tournaments/panels at Tora-Con and Anime Boston 2025, to keep Speed Duel in the air for a bit.
Just getting into speed duel now that it’s ending unfortunately, but I have plans to build a sort of cube with all the speed duel cards. Wish the format still had official tournaments at LGSs
Speed duel secrets always look so much better than non speed duel. Pain.
Speed Duel is the only format I’ve reliably played since 2020, grateful for all of the friends it helped me make. Definitely gonna miss it.
It is sad to see it go, for the older yugioh fans, battle city was the coolest thing ever. Me and my little brother used to make Lego Duel Disk for our arms 😂
Would be funny to see kids play with sphere mode and say "I will tribute 3 of your monsters for Asura Priest!"
Always cool to see secret rare god cards. Loving the Blue Eyes and Dark Necrofear. You can see Konami went all out for the last Speed Duel.
I always thought Speed Duel was rather interesting. They reprinted a lot of good cards as commons so it made it super easy to get certain things really cheap.
Love speed duel gonna miss this!! Me and my brother do are in duel nights with making speed duel decks, still gonna play but sad there will be no more!! Love your vids ruxin!!
Recently got back into collecting again when Bonanza released - I don't know anything about a lot of the newer format stuff but nothing beats the nostalgia of ripping a pack and getting excited when it's shiny!
I will say I like this set a lot. I like the fact that it has so many nostalgic cards along with the promos that suit their user.
I'll miss speed duel, the card quality is sooo good, hope they start printing all other cards like speed duel cards, better looking front side and colors, they're thicker and even the foils look better
It's blasphemous we didn't get this in Europe, I'll have to spend a lot on getting these cards

were never getting rush duel cards :(
I was tempted to get into speed duel i guess thats out the window but i hope they bring some of the arts from speed duel to the main game
Aside from the god cards, the prismatic secret rares come from a pool of 30 cards, which have the same set number as their common counterparts.
Goddang that's a pretty big asura priest jeez
While I have lost interest on speed duels, the maxx c reprint is definitely the best one included in my opinion.
According to TCG, there are 33 prismatic secret rares, 217 commons. Bonanza did the whole 281 QCSR / Platinum and then the Secret Rare, UR, SR have 81 (meaning 200 cards are only found in platinum / qcsr reprint, which is really cool)

Wow Maxxx C and the other goat cards in speed duel prism look 😮
One of the best selection for set. Love this set.
Guess it was good I mentioned that this was coming out on your whatnot stream, I love this set, cards look awesome and I didn’t know there was error cards. Very cool happy holidays everyone
I personally never played speed duels but it looked fun.
I love speed duels.
This one is one of the best sets so far, it has some cards I want to improve my casual decks.
The secrets look the way they look because they have a UV-Varnish, which strengthens the color of the ink & foil.
2:02 It looks like that opening too many products with QCR in them make Ruxin add "century" after the word "quarter" even tho it is not there lol
Sad to see it leave. It’s great for casual play with friends and family on game nights. Also a great learning aid for those just entering into the realm of Yu-gi-oh!

I'm a big fan of speed duel! Sad to see it go but they picked a hell of a way to go out!
i really liked speed duel, sadly i got into it late so i never got to open a box since the last 2 werent released in the EU
Rest in peace Speed Duels. The greatest format that never really caught on. Sad to see it end 😢
Love speed duel! Speed duel’s card quality is some of the best in years and the secret rares are legit and super nostalgic
I liked Speed Duel sets like this for cards that aren’t printed as often, sometimes even first time prints of old vanillas that otherwise weren’t localized for the TCG. Sad to see it go.
Speed duels are a fun format sad to see it end for now.
I’m just excited for a cool new secret rare version of Dark Necrofear since it wasn’t in Bonanza. Perhaps it’ll be in Stampede too!
I think it is unfortunate they are shutting down speed duel, when they didn’t fully support. Hopefully we will get more side sets in place of speed duel releases
Big homie love your vids. But is there anyway i can buy that error ra sphere mode of ya? Cuz i wanna say to some i normal asura priest and all they see is big ball
Wild that they changed the type of the secret rare on the last set in the format
Loved Speed duel from the get go. It's how i got back into YGO. Sad to see it go. Even sadder that we in South Africa haven't received the last 2 Speed duel sets😢😢
Loved speed duels, the nostalgia was peek 👏
Just sad how they managed Speed Duel. It got me back into the game and I really appreciate this format. Not only is it not been continued we in europe won't even get these last two boxes. What a shame.
Some of these Secret Rares look so good!
bro these errors are CRAZY
i think the value of all the Speed Duel cards will raise now that they're discontinued.
speed duel has been a blast, i haven't played much of it but the amount of reprints of classic anime cards has been great, wish we got a few mor ocg vanillas in this set but over all like the secret pool
It's sad that speed duel is going away. So many great and epic cards! Nice to see that they saved the best for last! Merry Christmas, Rux!
The prismatic secrets look really nice, and I don't mind the nostalgia reprints, but I feel like they did so many of these already. Why not choose some other more obscure nostalgia cards to get these treatments? Would've been cool to see something like Curse of Dragon get a SCR upgrade, etc.
16:58 Fun fact: Isn't this Sphere Mode also an error card, because it is missing the password in the bottom left corner?
love the new more modern support
Heres hoping we get some type of format like speed duel. Maybe one where they there’s a card text limit to force simple cards lol
9:06 What's interesting is thunder ball it is a dungeon dice monster
Just got one of these yesterday Got some nice promos including injection fairy but no error however I did get the prismatic maxx c which is about 22 bucks
Sad to see speed duels go away, but i would have hoped it at least got to the link era so i could use them as a quick primer for new players
I am sad because here in Australia we aren’t getting this.
Konami hates us, EU is not important or wanted, just like with the retro pack reprint.
I really like these sets, they always do good with the secret rare variants imo
Man the speed duel cards look and feel so much better than other cards
RIP speed duel got me back into the game. Was a great way to get cheap versions of the cards from my childhood. You will be missed 😢
I never played in the Speed Duel format but man I’m gonna miss the quality of the secret rares from these products.
It's Sad As It Was A Great Way To Get Better Quality Foils And It Was Fun To Play. It Was Great For People Who Were Just Getting Into The Game To Get The Classic Cards. It's Really Cool That Their's A Chance To Get Error Cards In This Set!
It’s disappointing that Speed Duel never made it to Synchro era, despite the format having mechanisms for later summoning techniques in Duel Links
The secret rares bang! Looking forward to getting a Dark Magician Girl for the binder.
Sorry to see Speed Duel go away. Lots of cool prints!
Always loved the secrets in Speed Duel
Man, I'm sad speed duel is going
But I hope this means we're getting rush duels
Speed duel has been dope since release making the game easier to play for new and old players like myself is a step in the right direction
I've never played speed duels before, but they look like fun and are great for beginners! I'd like to pick up an old set to try it out one day!
Having new prints of old cards is the best about speed duel
They were lazy with the foil on Osiris and Ra. They're missing all of the small foil details on their body.
In conclusion, it’s not that disappointing that Speed Duels are being discontinued, this final set gives fans one last chance to enjoy the format’s charm and nostalgia before it fades into history (already did tbhj). It’s a celebration of simpler dueling times, and for those who loved it, this set is an likely emotional farewell to a beloved but brief chapter in Yu-Gi-Oh!'s long history.
And man, that Lilly is awesome, favorite pull in the video (and in the PSV)
Keep up the good work man, love ya!
Speed duel brought me back tot the early 2000’s when I was a kid and used to admire the filled up section of yugioh in stores. Sad to see it go!
I will miss it for sure, it was such a cool concept, great video as always rux😊
Speed duel is such a good way for old fans to play the game without having to learn all the new rules and mechanics. But hey it also didn't sell much so i get it. This set seems super sweet though!
I have always loved the format and duel links too. I hope they are just postponing the game.
Those prismatic secret necrovalleys are niiice.
You can say the quality control nowadays sucks, but at least we can get cool errors.
cant believe ruxin is gonna miss merauding captain in that new cimo series
Wish they had original dark magician art in this one to go with blue eyes
So sad that SD has ended! Always great prismatic secrets that will be missed!
Kind of bummed to see speed duel go. Their card quality was much better than anything we got for our regular "advanced format" packs.
Speed duel cards are pretty cool. I opened a Kaiba speed duel booster box. I’m still missing cards from that set
I wish this was available in the UK. It's a cool set. Maxx C was surprising, but it isn't all that broken in Speed Duels. It doesn't have so many special summons, and you can deck out a lot easier with it too. I am disappointed that there is yet another printing of the same god cards though. It's not so big a deal considering how many promos you get.
I think this speed duel set is really neat but I'm so annoyed it's only in america, there's no way to get these in europe

Speed Duel was a great way to get new players / returning players interested when the modern game is so complex. Sad to see it go!
Speed duel had a great potential that Konami didn't manage to innovate. They could have introduced xyz and pendulums like Duel links, but they decided to stand still with 2002-2010 type of cards 😅
What I'm gonna miss the most are the old japanese vanilla cards they start to bring into tcg in the early days of this format
I really like this speed duel set, rewatching yugioh atm so cool to see this set being opened as I’ve just finished that season
