This glitch scared me as a kid. I dueled against the Goblin King NPC and it took control of my Venus with no cards left on my side of the field. Goblin King already looks creepy, it already had game, but it kept paying 500 over and over and over. I think that was the last time I played this game.
Agreed for I felt so lost and confused for after a while, it felt like I clicked on the wrong video and just clicked off eventually for being so confused…
1:16 See the guy on the right with the glasses in the front? The guy sitting next to him with the sun visor (it was a phase, lol) and the ponytail is me. I lost in the first round, but the free trip to Comic-Con was awesome anyway. Good times.
Thanks for sharing this I was actually 2nd place for USA and lost to this deck round one of worlds was crazy ! Funny story Konami took us to dinner Think of this people have traveled the world to Japan to only be taken to …. TGIFridays 😂
there's a version of this deck with lava golem and wall of revealing light. Reversal Quiz them and then burn them for 1k. I won a game against a zoodiac player a long time ago and he got really upset actually lol. That was like the first yugi tourney i ever did at the time.
Although it's not a glitch a cool part of this game is that it will concede if you use yata lock. You have to use a cheat code to unlock the forbidden/limited cards though
alot of strange laws came from an old practice called mandates basically laws that a king/noble would put as a law (you could refuse to your own detriment aka death/punishment) and nobody would check the laws and apparently nobles did a bit of trolling and put in the most nonsensical laws they could think of. that's why you get laws like "you can not walk a plank of wood across the road at 3:00 am" funny enough there is a single card in the current yugioh that has a strange fail to find clause and weird rules : crop circles. see modern master rule says "you cant fail to find" however in the case of crop circles it suspificly has a "if you fail to find" downside, so you ask how the hell dose it work? in the very strange and rare instance that the only target for the effect is moved from deck as it is resolving or in response then it would trigger the downside witch honestly is kind of funny also what a weird bug lol

Ironically, "Fail to find" is an old ruling that functions better on paper than in code, but the actual rule that is used for paper play is one that works better for a programmed game - and the construction of a lot of PSCT (it was adopted far earlier in the OCG than the TCG) and rulings (such as damage step rules) were created specifically to make video game simulators possible. If something is not a legal activation then the game can simply prevent you from doing it, but in paper play unless you have a complete knowledge of your deck list and the legal targets for something, you might accidentally have some activation that is technically illegal but you wouldn't know until something happened that caused a minor error in game state. For instance, if you discard a card to activate the effect of "Beast Striker" but you have no "Moja" in your deck, even if you take back the play since it isn't a legal activation you have altered the game state because the opponent has knowledge of the card you discarded.
I really love that window of when we didn't have fail to find, but we also weren't allowed to check face down banished cards (stuff like Esper Girl), until there was an issue at a YCS in 2014 where a player's last ROTA target was banished by their opponent's Ghosttrick card (forget which one). So at YCS Chicago they started allowing players to check.
Also there are other gliches. -Cards being discard from the top of deck to the graveyard by a card effect are reconized by the game as banishing cards by the card "Soul Absorbtion". -Cards discarded from your hand to the graveyard by the effect of "called by the grave" are reconized by the game as cards discard by your oponent cards effect (this trigger the bonus effect of dark world monsters, and cards like "electric snake" and "elephant statue" monsters). -"Rope of Life" triggers the effect of dark world monsters. (In the real life game It would not happen because Dark world monsters do not activate their effects when discard as a cost). And many others.
A similar set up exists still as far as I know. I haven't checked the banlists in ages as I no longer play, but a 7k Wall of revealing Light and 2 fuhmas/Black Pendants can still have a similar effect. It does take an extra turn, so no FTK, but close. Looking slightly further into it, once again, not caring enough to look up banlists, Qardan the Clear-Sighted seems to be something that could cause a FTK with that idea. If its banned, welp..
There are ways to do it as an FTK in the OCG/Master Duel, thanks to Chicken Game, a Field Spell that lets you pay 1000 LP to draw a card once per turn per copy of the card, being at 3 in those formats.
I remember using this strat in the part of the game that you have to continuously defeat opponents with your lp staying with you throughout. It was boring yet amusing.
The most bizarre ruling from Konami is that you’re not allowed to keep track of things like counters on cards outside of your mind and you’re not allowed to mark the imperm column but the simulators do both.
8:10 is crazy for ocg and tcg differences. Home team advantage I guess. Though yeah this is why I like sealed so everyone has equal knowledge of a smaller card pool. Set rotation gets power crept anyway.
I played a lot this game but never achieve the 100%, the quest to use and mantain huge revolution always kept coming out as failed in spite of everything, I didn't understand why
I don't quite understand the issue. You were able to activate and resolve rota without a target, and you were able to activate and resolve Venus without a target. What difference does it make how it tells you that there were no targets? Both should be illegal activations, yeah?
Before some mid 2000 year (don't remember), doing stuff like this was legal in paper play. Most notably in goat format, you can legally activate thunder dragon and search nothing just to get the light monster for your chaos monster. These weren't technically illegal activations back then as they are now.
tbh i didn't like the WC game 2006 that much. i liked the previous game better with the overworld and the changing tournaments and stuff. but yeah this game had some ... weird glitches and issues sometimes (the earlier games even more) also "back in the day" this was played with a trap that let you look at one of your opponements cards in hand for 500 lp...so this deck was then mostly an OTK (but could FTK as well)
It's not a glitch, Venus isn't once per turn and since deck knowledge is private, technically you can activate a card effect even if there is no target in the deck, obviously after the first failed to find, its now public knowledge but they could also just lie about it since there's nothing in the rules about failed to finds, scummy to say the least but that's just the nature of the game sadly.
Yes, I want my card game simulator to have as many cards as possible. The OST was a banger. The field layout looked like a Yu-Gi-Oh field layout, so it did all it had to do.
@ I'm just saying, it did the bare minimum. It does not get points for having a big card pool. There's a reason the power of chaos trilogy is still being played despite having a even smaller card pool that this game. Eternal Duelist Soul had a superior field layout than this one and it came nearly 5 years earlier than this game.
@ All I can find are people saying that WCS 2006 is one of the best Yu-Gi-Oh GBA games made. If this game doesn't get points for having a big card pool, then the other games get negative points for wasting storage space on pointless dialogue and rpg elements that could have went to having more cards and a better dueling experience. I don't need to look at text bubbles between my duels. I play Yu-Gi-Oh video game because I want to simulate the card game not follow a ridiculous plot. WCS 2006 is the best DM TCG simulator.
Seems a bit disingenuous to call Konami not banning a ftk before they make the game a glitch in the title. Things like this pop up all the time in the game, but it's just taken care of by the banlist nowadays.
Put the explanation first or something. You playing through the "glitch" first i didnt know what was going on until after your long play of it. I know it its not just me because other comments are saying the same thing.
Luckily the Master Duel autobuilder honors this fail to find tradition by adding ROTA to decks with no targets to this very day!
Don't worry, Poplar is obviously a ROTA target.
A huge part of YGO is deck building, so if you use an auto deck builder then it serves you right if it goes wrong.
lol

Holy moly. I own a physical copy of this game and I play it frequently, but I had NO idea it was so broken like this!!
xD yeah the game had several glitches
You know what you have to do
Respectfully, I would’ve had the explanation precede the gameplay. Sitting through the gameplay without knowing what’s going on is confusing.
Agreed for I felt so lost and confused for after a while, it felt like I clicked on the wrong video and just clicked off eventually for being so confused…
Don't think they mention or explain what D-Mac or D-Mock even is or does despite mentioning it like 10 times
I feel like this video should have been closer to 16 or 18 minutes. It definitely needed more thorough explanation.

You have to use a cheat code to unlock the forbidden/limited cards though
Stairway to the Destined Duel allows you to make a deck with no restrictions after beating the game and beating the Rare Hunters and Marik
The Tag Duel series typically lets you unlock no banlist, and to get legal anime exclusive card packs
Absolutely loving your new style of videos, with the "Yugimentaries".Keep up the amazing work!
What's really amusing, is that a build of it with Royal Medical Library is still a consistent FTK in modern GOAT lol.
I Fail to Find any flaw with this masterpiece 😉

funny enough there is a single card in the current yugioh that has a strange fail to find clause and weird rules : crop circles.
see modern master rule says "you cant fail to find"
however in the case of crop circles it suspificly has a "if you fail to find" downside, so you ask how the hell dose it work?
in the very strange and rare instance that the only target for the effect is moved from deck as it is resolving or in response then it would trigger the downside

This is why I prefer Duelist of the Roses. All you need to break that game is a single Aqua Dragon, it removes the middleman.

You are allowed to use physical objects or notes to track counters. You just can't use one object to represent multiple counters.

That's not a glitch, and calling it one is just straight up misinformation. This is an oversight on the game rules, for sure, but NOT a glitch.
