Uhm, this is probably the only way ur gonna hear me, but what if i put a link monster into the extra monster zone, where the arrows point left/right, is anything then affected?
Yeah I just want to correct you on something. Decode talker says you need 2+ effect monsters. This means that you should use a minimum of 2 monsters to link summon it. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Word bro, I went into a store where they hold duels and shit and me coming in with my original deck thought I'll probably win all these duels. Upon arriving I talk to the guys who run the store and have em check my deck. Dude was like "do you want me to be honest or do you want me to be nice" He told me my deck will have me leave the store with everyone laughing at me cuz all the cards are old and now everyone's using link monsters, damn did I miss a lot
ZacIsBurnt i come from the future they changed the new rule set you now only need links in link monster decks and pendulum decks to summon them to normal monster zones. Yeah fusion, synchro and xyz monsters are back to their former glory
@@tomsky4751 not yet the official Master rule change does not come into effect until April 1st and it's only to the ocg. It will most likely follow to the tcg shortly afterwards.
That's easy... if you had a duel disk, there would in fact be SEVEN zones to put monsters cards in. But only center FIVE space are for monsters. The extra zones on the far left and far right were the pendulum zones.
Let's be real. Konami didn't do this because they give a shit about how broken their previous cards have been. They did this to force you to buy new cards.
No it's like if someone broke your kneecap. Shot you in both shoulders and stuck a knife in both eyes. Leave you to die. You get treated at the hospital and as soon as you make a full recovery they come and do it again.
no it more like if a dealership sold you a car they a year later they took everything that made it usable and said you would have to by the parts again
Fusion summon: super Synchron summon: super Xyz summon: pretty easy and useful Pendulum summon: confusing but super and ultra Useful Link summon: I wish I had never played yugioh.
The worst parts of pendulum and link is how much they change outside the summoning method themselves, given how both actively changed how the field was laid out. Pendulum had their "can be played as a monster or a spell" thing in addition to adding a summoning mechanic AND had their goes to the extra deck instead of the graveyard when leaving the field feature. Meanwhile Links added another zone on to the field (again), are a new extra deck type (and possibly the easiest in basic concept, since it's just tribute monsters but from the extra deck, and tributing a tribute monster reduces the number of tributes the new monster needs equal to the number of tributes the former took) but then on top of all that, like Xyz they have no level, and like everything else they have no rank, and just because Konami felt like it they have no DEF (and by extension can never be put in defence mode). They then also made columns not just a relevant feature of the game again like how Cyberdark Infinity tired to, but actively enforced them, which was something really simple that apparently many players somehow struggled to keep track of or abide to. And on top of all that they actively overhauled how every previous Extra deck summon worked to fit with their own mechanics, making themselves almost compulsory for playing in any format with them before MR5, which rightfully freed the other extra deck mons from the link era tyranny. TL;DR Link Summoning itself is as simple if not more so than Ritual, Fusion, Syncro, Xzy or Pendulum. The issue is how it changes the board and how the pre-existing summoning methods work, and how they made themselves something you Had to understand and likely use if you wanted an Extra deck.
I actually liked pendulum, it brings more decisions in the game, so we wouldn't follow the same pattern... but link is really bad. I mean link would be awesome as an additional format without ruining current Yu-Gi-Oh but that will never happen...
PhobosDDeimos i guess it's because you "overlay" the monsters just like Xyz dragon, but castel, Tornado Dragon and Gear GiantX don't appear to be "overlayed" monsters
Synchro was a cool new way to summon. XYZ was different but still a useful twist. Pendulum added versatility and a "doom drop" style of summoning. still good. Link just fucked everything up and somewhat crippled pendulum summoning. not a fan at all.
Also...did you know...that bungee gum has the properties of bith bungee and gum??? It's just as complicated as pot of greed which lets you draw two cards
Trying to get back into the game after a 12 year absence. I can accept Synchro, Xyz and Pendulum; but this is just a big no. I understand Link, but that doesn't mean I like it.
As a first gen duelist and playing since. My suggestion is playing all within the limits of your friends. Truthfully, I am slowly adjusting to links but my decks dont have to run links. At least understand them for your opponent. For friends, you all keep it casual until the tournaments.... Buddy, yugioh is now for the one turn kills that easily favors one side instead of swinging it out back and forth. I still dislike links but I love yugioh too much to leave it.
Yeah I hate pendulums. Even when everything is calling me out to play pendulums, such as my Dark Magician deck appearing to work with the Magician Pendulum cards or my first deck I ever used (spellcounters) getting some pendulum support, I still refuse to play pendulums.
4 Years Later..... Konami:We have a new anime and a new summoning technique Reporter:Tell us more Konami:The KAIBA summon. It allows you the screw the rules as long as you pay the other player $100
Fattori Xx And what of our Link Monster in the Extra Zone can't show the arrows to the places we expect? Summoning more Link Monsters in the Normal Zone? We have to purchase those monsters again?
I am one of the people that played the game as a child when it first came out and it had a pretty big impact of my younger years. I recently re-discovered a stash of cards and my love for the game, and since lacking people to casually play with in real life, I was excited to give the new YGO video game a chance because it received good reviews. However, 30 minutes into the first levels of the campaign and my attention gets drawn away from the nostalgic duel scenarios to the new zones and I get utterly annihilated because the AI knew how to use it, I didnt. I rather play the GX Tag Force games again, it's a shame that after XYZ any new type made the game even more complicated and incomprehensive.
Me before watching the vid : "Oh they just added one new type of summoning, won't be changing much the game haha." After watching the vid Me: *Bruh...Wtf!!*
me before: oh a new type of card lets see if it can make old decks that lost all value become decent again (neos + pendulum) me after: whelp neos has been revived just to be killed again and they ate his soul and corpse and he will never see light again
What the hell has happened to this game, they've made it tragically annoying and confusing to be able to actually summon any extra deck cards. And if youdont play with link monsters you're screwed which means they're a forcing you to buy new cards to be able to even actually play
Kiba Kitten too bad Links only sped things up more, hope ypu enjoy watching your opponent taking 15+ minutes to play out turn 1 and make a board you can't break
I haven't played YuGiOh in quite a while. Haven't tested link summoning, but is the game really that bad now? I quit long time ago because OTKs and insane locks were getting out of hand. When I heard about link summoning I thought - YEY FINALLY the game is gonna slow down, but if that is not the case i am not getting into yu gi oh ever ....
I will admit that I've defended all other types of summoning that were introduced, because people were being drama-queens about it. *Synchro Summoning* _"GASP! You can fusion summon WITHOUT polymerization?! It's over, the game is broken, Yugioh is dead!"_ *Xyz Summoning* _"GASP! You can synchro summon WITHOUT a tuner monster?! It's over, the game is broken, Yugioh is dead!"_ *Pendulum Summoning* _"GASP! You can special summon several monsters WITHOUT using a spell card?! It's over, the game is broken, Yugioh is dead!"_ I will admit though, this new one is a little hard to defend...
Pendulum really just needed to remove the *sent to the extra deck to be resummoned* clause and they would have been manageable again... this just kinda screams overkill.
the only good thing about this is that they made pendulum summoning now come with a draw back. now all my decks have to be done over, a complete f***ing overhaul. each of my decks specialized a summoning method now its gone down the drain. when they released pendulum i thought "neat this could make all of these easier methods easier" i even though i could make my dream neos deck but NOPE!!!
They broke the game with Pendulum and used Links to fix it, hurting other decks in the process. Good idea, bad execution. I didn't like the mechanic, but am okay with it now, slows things down which is appreciated. But they could've done a much better job with it.
literally the only good thing about this. nerfing pendulum... how do you introduce a new card and make the best change to the game be the previous new card?
Konami board meeting Executive: Ok gang, what can we do to make this game more fucked and complicated than it already is? Group: Switch out the two right and left spell/trap zones for pendulum zones, and add two more monster zones above the original monster zone that requires new monsters with a chain summoning technique! Executive: I don't get it.......Lets fucking do it!
When you buy a new Deck that revolves around summoning 3 Thousand Eyes Restrict, and one month later Link monsters come out of nowhere and you start swearing against God and all Angels in Heaven, but then you realize that no one likes these new cards and everyone still plays with the old rules, not giving a fuck about the existence of Link Monsters
Not dead, fam... You can still summon them on the normal mosnter zones without link monsters or the extra monster zone, (graveyard, hand, and banished zone.)
Pendulum spam relies on blowing up scales to massive summon and then extradeck plays (see pure metalfoes and metalfoes engine, even igknight to a lesser extent), they are very very dead.
I'm hoping they start coming out with more cards like "Alien Infiltrator" that can either move zones themselves or cards that can move other cards around. That way the X-Zone won't actually be so limiting.
Konami employee: Woah, nobody seemed to of liked link summoning what should we do? They say it changed the game! Konami:lemme just literally change the game to being able to draw 5 cards at at a time, have 3 monsters on the field ONLY, change the card style and not have a cool down for how many monsters you can summon per turn also I would like to just call it a rush duel so it sounds more exciting. Konami employee: but that's just what some kid who doesn't know what the rules of the game are would make so he can play it with his other oblivious friends! Konami: exactly Konami employee: so we're making it worse? Konami: yes
Card games on Balloons (K.C. grand prix), Card games on horses, Card games on ancient egypt, Card games in school, Card games in underworld, Card games on motorcycles,Card games on skateboards, Card games on flying motorcycles, Card games on trains, Card games in space, Card games in alien spaceships, Card games on pink hippos, Card games across dimensions, Card games on motorcycles AGAIN, Card games on ruins, Card games in school AGAIN, Card games in fked-up multidimensional mixup of reality, Card games on hover boards, Card games on Virtual Reality... what's next? card games on a table? that would be ridiculous *smhf*
This is getting way too much complicated and unecessary and these link monsters just ruined all the original gamestyle we got since the beginning and most of the decks. I will stick with the old gameplay it was already hard to understand with the Pendulum. But I do like the idea of the Pendulum taking place in the Magic & Trap zone, might try a hybrid version of the game with the original Gameplay but with the Pendulum Zone in the Magic & Trap zone.
Links were the last nail in the coffin for me where Yu-Gi-Oh is concerned. While I can applaud some of their card design and the push to break out of Yu-Gi-Oh's Zone limitations‚ it's just not the game I grew up with and played for years.
They finally did it. They made mandatory cards. Every expansion they released sure you could jump on the new card train fall into the meta but you didnt have to. Now for any deck in the current card game that uses the extra deck REQUIRES these new cards. They have not only slowed down the game for anyone OTHER THAN THE NEW CARD TYPE but they have made a new card type that MUST be used. Every deck in the next pro tour will be a deck without an extra deck or with 90% link + some synchro for extra final push.
HobbsyTenTwentyThree exactly to have the advantage now you have to use link monsters if you want to special summon more than once from the extra deck thats how they slowed it down forced players to buy these cards pretty much
Although it's a ton easier using link monsters, it isn't actually mandatory. I play D/D/Ds without a single links, and can still get a full field of extra deck monsters. (Except now I can have six instead of five!)
see one half of me is telling me that link monsters are shit and its messing the game mechanics up especially for us old school players who run beat down decks and all the pros that come with the old cards. Yet the other half of me is seeing logic as it breaks down the flow of the extra deck and stops players spamming copies of the same op cards. That being said having to use link monsters is something i'm not down with atm, i still maintain that they should just have reformed the banned list and kept the original format. None the less, can't help but admit that some of the cards are pretty cool though.
the new format itself actually seems legit fun, since when your opponent can (apparently) also profit from your link zone. That would mean that there is huge outplay and mind game potential, however it kills to many of the old strategies and messes with the mechanics so much that it is basically a yu-gi-2.0h and not the same game anymore... which is I guess the reason why people hate it so much, since it makes all of their old cards downright unusable without the addition of new cards and lets admit, those cards are expensive af
@@j3nki541 link summoning broke the game. Combo decks right now can shit out unbreakable 7 monster boards that lock your opponent out of the game. Well that was before firewall got banned.
I dont understand how a New comer can realisticly learn all of the yugioh rules by now. Is not like their New series are becoming any popular outside of Japan, in fact since the original series the anime is hardly attracting some attention and old fans dont seem too excited by the anime.
I hear you, I finished watching the original anime and then went to GX. I couldn't get past the first episode because it made NO F****NG SENSE!! I think the "Duel School" s**t is what made me say "F**K THIS S**T, I'M OUT!!".
The only yu gi oh that I've watched is duel monsters so when i tried playing yu gi oh i was like "WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS HOW THE FUCK DID THAT HAPPENED?!?" But I've already learned the rules took me about to months to be able to play it properly. I can already play up to pendulums summoning
Kaiba: I ACTIVATE ENEMY CONTROLLER TO CHANGE UR BATTLE POSITION Yugi: kaiba there are no weak cards in my grandpas deck and most of all the unstoppable link monster Kaiba: WHAT THE BATTLE POSITION DIDNT CHANGE Yugi: link monster dont change battle position Kaiba: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
@@EneSacarification Kaiba's a great character for sure. Eric Stewart did a great job portraying him. "With GX and onwards; it became all more and more childish" I definitely agree that GX, Zexal, Arc-V, and VRAINS are all aimed at way younger target audiences and I don't enjoy them as much as the original Duel Monsters. However, 5D's is probably the most mature out of all the Yu-Gi-Oh shows and a gem among the spin offs. If you haven't given it a shot I highly recommend the sub; especially episodes 1-64. "BTW, you do realize that XYZ, Pendulum, and Link Summoning are all pure capitalism, right?" Absolutely, each new summoning mechanic is just another way for Konami to incentivize players to buy new cards.
Ryan Barker I liked GX. Out of all the protagonists, Judai is the one with the most REMOTELY normal looking hair. Plus, you should check out the Japanese sub of GX. It’s uncensored like it should be, especially season 3. 4Kids would fuck up season 4 badly, hence they didn’t dub that.
@@EneSacarification Gx wasn't very childish in Japan and alot never really made it to the west with Yugioh because it's easy to market as a children's card game and all of yugioh is pure capitalism and that's not a bad thing
Bruh...I would forget my opponent's effects constantly with this new stuff. "Oh, so that card does (turns it around to read it)...right. And this card does (turns it), oh, that's right" Every turn...I would have to do that almost every turn
Zero time for fun tell me about it I've only been playing since summer of 2016 but I used watch my brother play and all I saw was a simple well run fun card game. Then after it being many years since the last time I saw Yugioh the game I saw was completely different.
for the most part the game didn't change much until this new link monster. it just added new summoning methods to increase lower level deck from what I've seen/ played.
@@aramis9331 In my opinion it evens out since decks that can easily summon a powerful synchro monster have to be built around summoning that monster. There is still counterplay but I definitely know what you mean. I really appreciate synchro summoning for being a fun and unique mechanic that does not disrupt the flow of other mechanics in the game. The reason I don't like link summoning isn't because of link summoning itself, it's because how much it nerfed fusion, synchro, and XYZ summoning.
Fusion: the OG Synchro: nice addition XYZ: alright, maybe we should stop there before you... Pendulum: what did you do that for Link: alright everyone turn around and go back, konami ruined humanity for all of us
@@IslamBenfifiit hard asf to even ritual summon like you need a certain ritual card that matches a certain monster card to work which might need other card to draw the card you need etc
lol only people that would buy them are tryhards that refuses to lose no matter what over a childrens card game. They want to isolate themselves in front of us because they think they are special and we're not lmao.
So the only thing that i have learned today is that i can throw all of my goddamn 20 decks in the trash... Well then thank you konami (Slowly claps) I really appreciate that (Still clapping slowly) You finally did it (Clapping stopped) You've murdered your game! I do understand that players of the old cards felt a little bit butthurt about the advantages modern extra deck based strategies provided to us players But as far as i know the synchro and xyz monsters never restricted other decks in the way they where played And yeah sure pendulum was op, but a nerf like this is just not okay! You can't just punish ALL extradeck monsters for ONE (failed) type and then FORCE your players to RAPE their good ol decks with this link sh*t Now all of the dark magician and blue eyes players come like: “oh, konami you saved us“ And “praise the lurd for stopping people from fast summoning“ BUT I do remember these decks getting MASSIVE support over the last years, not only by fusions but also by synchros and xyz AND I do think that with this blue eyed Maiden and the thundering roar of the silver dragon and ancient rules they also where able to summon their monsters really really fast SO I don't understand, why they had to devastate extra deck based strategies ESPECIALLY After the monarch deck (wich has no extra deck) boomed so hard, that it just shot right through the ceiling and streight into the limit and ban list, just because it was able to defeat extra deck based strats Was the limitation on the monarchs in vain? And didn't just this a$$woopingly strong deck prove that even in pendulum time it was possible to win without an extra deck? Konami, you have been making the extra deck a part of yugioh for so many years, don't you think that taking it away like this will also take away a big part of the game and a part of your beloved customers hearts? Don't you think restricting the op cards of the newer decks and giving new support cards to older decks would have been a better option than completely changing the whole game without any regards for the people that actually play it? I know there will be comments that say “pendulum is not op“ But i played it myself and i can surely say: “against older decks, it is“ I know there will be comments, that say: “link monsters are great, they are just what we needed, i don't know what you're talking about“ Just because you are either a sentimental fool living in the past or able to sh*t gold to afford this link paywall this does not give you the rights to take all of us extra deck dependent players our cards, strats, heartforged decks and even the fun of the game You might be happy about an improvement for your deck You migh feel really motivated to play links But you also have to understand the pain of a hero or cyber dragon, an utopia or galaxy, a fusion, synchro and xyz, yeah even a pendulum loving player who has spent time, money, efford, work and blood for his decks, when there is an announcement that tells him that all these decks now are completely worthless So you might just think about ur deck Make it trash, trow it down the garbage can How would you feel? Do u understand it now? If not you don't even deserve to own a deck... In my opinion older decks should get a little push BUT new decks like gusto and gishki and burning abyss or dark world should not be forgotten To bring real balance the game might just need some supps for the decks that already exist New types just make it messier and that's not helping at all So why don't just hang on to the cards we allready love?
true, that is I guess the reason why people hate link so much, in comparison to the old additions, as it actually messes with their old strategies, not just defeat them
Rasen Destroyer - Oh my fucking GOD!!! Thank you so much, I feel so exteriorized reading this comment, I was feeling the same damn way after getting what Links really meant for Yugioh. I truly hope that Konami is gonna step back in some way and AT LEAST instant delete that stupid normal monster zone to let players be able to summon from extra deck as before, but seeing how Konami changed the whole game and how are commercially designed to force you to by them if you want to kinda summon your monsters as before, I fear we wont really be able to “legally” play as we were used to. It just slows pointlessly down the pace of the game and made summoning and managing your field very rigid and unpractical, but also force to integrate this ruleset for 80% of any exisiting Decks if you want to play by the current rules. Before those links monsters came out, I fairly enjoyed all the archetypes of the game, even Pendulumn; if a player doesn’t like playing with certain more recent cards, they weren’t force to include it in their Deck to be able to play as anyone with friends, despite not necessarily being Meta Deck as long as they have fun with it. Now, the Links are restricting older Decks as well to use them; and as easy it seems to say that we’ll ignore those new rulesets and play as we’d like, I bet a lot of us would like to go to some regional or bigger tournaments to have some good time trying to do our best with our beloved deck; but welp, guess we’ll have to adapt if we want to keep playing the game by Konami’s rules. Dick move Konami, dick move... I don’t think I intended to write such a long message in the first place, but I guess I needed to vomit my frustration about this, and your 1 y.o. comment gave me the inspiration, Thanks dude :)
I underStand U Buddy This New Sh*ty Link IS just A F*Cked Way To Get Rid Of Our Decks The Duel-World Need SomeOne Like u Why Dont u Make A RUclips Chanel Or Talk With Konami Face-to-Face We All With u
Apologies about any mistakes in this video as im still learning Link summoning myself. I did notice after Honeybot required "Cyverse" monsters specifically as requirements, even though i show cyber dragon as a tribute XD Close enough. Also the New field image i used was from a another RUclipsrs video, if i can find his channel again ill link him here. Anyway leave a like if you enjoy and any extra information put in the comments for other to see!
You gotta love how the newest series, Sevens, instead of inventing new card types or summoning types, instead just invents a whole fucking new ruleset to play the game!
Fuck the Ingame people fuck the cards make it so its all monsters in a conquest or pvp game and they would make a hell ton of cash without people being ripped off.
one of the best things of yugioh was it was generally easy to play and pick up, and as the added new kinda of cards you just added that to your knowledge of the game. but drastically changing the mechanics of the game ruins it for casual players
Casual or not. Broken, unbalance and unhealthy strategies are not welcome and should be dealt with. The change was needed, otherwise you have decks like zoo running rampant with ONE card into 3 extra deck monsters without wasting normal summons.
Uria: I absolutely hate xyz/pendulum and all those wannabe "fusions" that just summon themselfes. But that still was better than forcing everyone to use this link bullshit and making old cards completely useless
tbh it really dosent. think of it as smogon for competitive Pokemon players. if you prefer casual laid back mons then you don't care whats on smogons banlist. same concept you dont have to use their new rules, if anything they should apply link sommon rules to locals with advancement and regulated tourneys, otherwise normal locals and casual play it shout be fine. tbh as far as hobbies are concerned certain rules are optional, especially when your playing casually for fun.
this make old card great again dude, i mean before synchro era, i d rather play this than 1 hour loop synchro, xyz, pend and u cant do nothing abt this.
They should've learned from poker. It barely has any drastic change and remain the world's most popular card game for decades. Casinos consistently make millions every year and card companies aren't losing their business. If anything, the industry seems to be getting bigger and bigger. Instead, they learn from video game tournaments. Bunch of dumbasses.
Just a quick tip: When pendulum summoning from the extra deck, they have to go into the Extra Monster Zone or where link markers are pointing. This makes pendulum summoning much harder and much more annoying.
@Omega Zero yeah is easy to summon but har when it comes to positioning your cards and guessing how you oponent will place the cards ( in case you start first) to get the juicy combo.
So like I haven't played ygo or followed but the change to the board is the WORST change in the history of the game. 1) nerfing s/ts 2) NERFING / destroying practically every single extra deck in existence by limited the number of Extra monsters on field without LINKs. 3) Konami trolling is beyond godlike
Actually, the game isn't dead. Same for decks that used to spamm extra deck monsters. The game is slowed down. Back in the day, we used to end a duel in 3-4 turns. Now it's a bit longer, and force you to think about what zone you summon your monsters. Also, you need to think well before summoning a monster, because you can only get 1 at the time.
Whereas Pendulum changed the game drastically, it still felt like Yugioh. Link Summoning literally ruined Extra deck for people that wanna focus on Synchro, Xyz, Pendulum, heck even classic Fusion summoning has it rough. All those epic combos protagonists used in past seasons aren't even possible now. I can understand adding new mechanics, but forcing older mechanics to change is just silly.
Except the fact that Pendulum summons made having an extra deck OP to begin with since you could get several monsters out and use them to rapid summon super powered XYZ/Synchro summon in 2 to 3 turns. Making it impossible for a person who didn't have pendulum summoning to counter the opponent before getting blasted and losing. So if you want to be mad at a game changing mechanic, get mad at Pendulum summoning. Link summoning is just the attempt to fix the damage it caused.
Ian Hunter I've heard the meta doesn't even rely heavily on Pendulums, the other summoning methods also had potential to get cards out fast, it just took more planning. There were ways to counter it too. Instead of creating Link Summoning to completely erase the past potential of Pendulums, Pendulums did the opposite and enhanced the capabilities of past cards, even normal summons. It's honestly the way they did it too. They actually had to change the field that drastically instead of actually creating a new card type that could counter it. That's pretty lame. EDIT: I can see the point though and it makes sense. But personally for me, Pendulums were really fun, it's just disappointing that they've rendered a great mechanic that low.
FlareBattle Yes, the reason Pendulums aren't Meta is because they have to waste their resources on scales just to pendulum summon, and the mechanic is easy to side deck against. Fairy Wind Magical Spring Twin Twisters Anti Spell Fragrance Dimensional Barrier and that erata'd imperial card that prevents spells from being activated...
FlareBattle I congratulate you for actually explaining your reasoning for hating links. 99% of link haters sound like their in rage mode or throwing tantrums.
if you started using pendulums, you will also start using links.because you wanna win and you gonna pick what other people use.that's your life.pretty much predictable.
Honestly they should've stopped at Synchros. Xyz could've been cool, but they didn't handle it correctly. Pendulum was a flawed concept they made work for whatever reason. Link is like a President walking into the mess of several predecessors and trying desperately to salvage the situation. It doesn't seem like it will work.
I personally don't like the new update either. It's a bit complicated and changes the whole game. I'm not recognizing Yu-Gi-Oh anymore. Some players say It's meant to limit the power of Pendulum. But actually we all got used to Pendulum and didn't need new monsters/new rules to win
I started using it a week ago (along with Pendulum) and it's not bad. Links are weird for sure, but I am using a Pendulum deck and it helps balance the summoning method to prevent crazy spamming every turn. Even I wouldn't want to spam 5 monsters a turn every turn.
Couldnt they have changed the rules without changing the field and forcing you to get new cards? Lime limit extra deck summoning to once per. "You can only perform 1 fusion, 1 Xyz, and 1 Syncro summon per turn." Bam, done. No field changing, no Link monsters needed, slightly harder to flood the field with special summons.
Vantage Games You can't just throw words like that out there like you're an ignorant 5 year old. It's also a good chanhe from the usual. (I have 3 monsters first turn cause i special summon and then i synchro/XYZ and win cause I'm invincible now.)
Pendulums had all these weird mechanics built into them. And we don't know how much this will slow the game down, but the game bloody needed it. 2-3 turns games are shit, and the only ones complaining are novices, skilled players welcome a slower and more strategic game.
Friends Gaming I noticed that 99% of link haters just like you say something along the lines of "Yu-Gi-Oh is dead!", "Screw links!", "I hate links!" "Fuck Konami" and etc but don't explain their reasoning making them sound like whiny cry babies. I applaud the 1% of link haters who explain themselves cause they at least sound like they aren't going into rage mode or throwing tantrums.
Friends Gaming that's basically what everybody said when every other card type came around but did yugioh really go bye bye after they came out, no, sure they're maybe a few quitters but I actually some advantage to these link monsters, because then decks that rely on the extra deck can only use one unless they have a link monster on the field and pendulum monster decks that basically rely on the extra deck are going to be limited on there choices unless they have a link monster and there are plenty of decks that don't need an extra deck.
You are at your friend's house and your friend goes "hey i got a brand new board game, let's try it out". He brings the game and you start reading the rule book. The rules are so many and so overcomplicated that you spend like an hour reading the entire book, but you don't even remember what you read at the first pages because you now have a headache. In the end you say "fuck it let's play video games". That's yu-gi-oh.
Oh man, I actually like this feature. It feels like it can actually give weaker decks a chance by preventing the opponent from summoning their entire special deck at once, and the link mechanics along with 2 extra zones sounds like a whole new world of strategy and planning.
Who needs to summon all their extra deck when they can still open the floodgates to fill their field with 3-5 cards from their normal deck in a single turn?
Honestly glad they lifted the restriction for extra deck monster summons in November 2021 allowing us to summon more then one extra deck monster at a time without needing to link summon and it’s also nice that we can still use all the old summon styles the way we used to in conjunction with link summons
Link Monster - Master Rules Revision Update: bit.ly/3dLgzf0
Uhm, this is probably the only way ur gonna hear me, but what if i put a link monster into the extra monster zone, where the arrows point left/right, is anything then affected?
Link monster has destroyed the Yu-Gi-Oh game Yu-Gi-Oh game is worthless now because of this link b*******
I hate link 😡
Yeah I just want to correct you on something. Decode talker says you need 2+ effect monsters. This means that you should use a minimum of 2 monsters to link summon it. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Link monsters have ruined the game, they had no need to add anymore, they coulda just stopped at pendulum monsters and that woulda been enough
Any of you guys watched the yugioh time travel movie with that paradox guy in it?
Now I understand why he went back in time
see, pegasus would never have created this abomination. the death of pegasus created synchro :S
@@ftu2021 I think the board is bigger mistake then sychron lol
My man said now we see why he went back in time 🤣🤣 all I can say is, facts !!
XD
Its obvious that he went back in time to kill the person that pitched the link idea to pegasus
Uhh So this is how it feels to take a break from yugioh and come back
yep where new cards and summoning methods exist and all your starts no longer mean jack
Facts the dynamics are fucked. Not that confusing but still fucked in the end 😂 so much change for this new style.
And now I feel old and I'm only 14
Maybe we should stick with our old school rules & try to adapt everything up to pendulum stuff into it
Word bro, I went into a store where they hold duels and shit and me coming in with my original deck thought I'll probably win all these duels. Upon arriving I talk to the guys who run the store and have em check my deck. Dude was like "do you want me to be honest or do you want me to be nice" He told me my deck will have me leave the store with everyone laughing at me cuz all the cards are old and now everyone's using link monsters, damn did I miss a lot
Remember when fusions were the most complicated thing in the game
oh geez thats even before my time...
I still don't understand them, how can two monsters become 1, what is this? Dbz?
I also remember where 98% of the cards in the game didn't have 7 lines of effect text lol
Dingbat yeah just a lil bit of background lore or sumn😂😂
It was very funny
I miss the times where Jinzo was OP.
He used to be my trump card back in the day😥(no pun intended)
I don't
But I miss when I didn't have to think about how to add links to my decks
Mario Ramirez dude deadasss!!!!!
Yeah the good old days.
I still remember my preteen days when I nuked my friends with Chaos emperor dragon and Black luster soldier
So they screwed over Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, and some of Pendulum summoning just to make a new summoning mechanic. *Deep Breath* FANTASTIC
I hate almost every change that came in the link era
Ye rip accel synchro summoning
ZacIsBurnt i come from the future they changed the new rule set you now only need links in link monster decks and pendulum decks to summon them to normal monster zones. Yeah fusion, synchro and xyz monsters are back to their former glory
@@tomsky4751 not yet the official Master rule change does not come into effect until April 1st and it's only to the ocg. It will most likely follow to the tcg shortly afterwards.
Tom Sky so if it’s not a link monster deck, none of that bullshit applies?
Also how is this gonna work with my duel disk fam
asking the important questions
Alfredo Izg
Just pretend it never existed and play by the old rules
ikr
How did Pendulum monsters work with your duel disk? I mean, now they're in your spell/trap card zones, but before?
That's easy... if you had a duel disk, there would in fact be SEVEN zones to put monsters cards in. But only center FIVE space are for monsters. The extra zones on the far left and far right were the pendulum zones.
Let's be real. Konami didn't do this because they give a shit about how broken their previous cards have been. They did this to force you to buy new cards.
This man gets it!
Konami's all about that money! Just, look at how they treat their legacy IPs.
Pachinko machines ruin families!!
Well yeah, It's a company? They didn't make the game to do us a favor you realise?
Cyanlaser121 and to make people watch Yu-Gi-Oh VRains
Two birds with one stone, eh? Maybe three even. :P
MrPeperidge haha I think me and you are the only ones here that understand this. I'm not going to lie this makes me want to play the game again
Pendulum destroyed Yugioh but link banished it
Nah the New Master rules fixed it. Thank god. That First i don’t now what was awful
Not banished, more like but a limiter on it so as prevent pendulums from being as OP as they use to be.
you can say Pendulum sent yugioh to the graveyard but link banished it from existence.
@@newstart229 straight to the shadow realm
Bullshit
Link Summoning seems like the Yu-Gi-Oh equivalent of breaking your legs to sell you pain meds.
Never heard it summed up so accurately
No it's like if someone broke your kneecap. Shot you in both shoulders and stuck a knife in both eyes. Leave you to die. You get treated at the hospital and as soon as you make a full recovery they come and do it again.
no it more like if a dealership sold you a car they a year later they took everything that made it usable and said you would have to by the parts again
lol good metaphor!
Actually, link summoning turned yu-gi-oh into pokemon! (The card game, not the video game)
Fusion summon: super
Synchron summon: super
Xyz summon: pretty easy and useful
Pendulum summon: confusing but super and ultra Useful
Link summon: I wish I had never played yugioh.
Ahaha tbh i did get the pendulum summon
Pendulum was easy to understand
I get every summon, EXCEPT THE FREAKING LINK SUMMON, REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
The worst parts of pendulum and link is how much they change outside the summoning method themselves, given how both actively changed how the field was laid out. Pendulum had their "can be played as a monster or a spell" thing in addition to adding a summoning mechanic AND had their goes to the extra deck instead of the graveyard when leaving the field feature.
Meanwhile Links added another zone on to the field (again), are a new extra deck type (and possibly the easiest in basic concept, since it's just tribute monsters but from the extra deck, and tributing a tribute monster reduces the number of tributes the new monster needs equal to the number of tributes the former took) but then on top of all that, like Xyz they have no level, and like everything else they have no rank, and just because Konami felt like it they have no DEF (and by extension can never be put in defence mode). They then also made columns not just a relevant feature of the game again like how Cyberdark Infinity tired to, but actively enforced them, which was something really simple that apparently many players somehow struggled to keep track of or abide to. And on top of all that they actively overhauled how every previous Extra deck summon worked to fit with their own mechanics, making themselves almost compulsory for playing in any format with them before MR5, which rightfully freed the other extra deck mons from the link era tyranny.
TL;DR Link Summoning itself is as simple if not more so than Ritual, Fusion, Syncro, Xzy or Pendulum. The issue is how it changes the board and how the pre-existing summoning methods work, and how they made themselves something you Had to understand and likely use if you wanted an Extra deck.
I'm about to ritual summon on your ass
when you thought pendulum ruined Yu-Gi-Oh
Pendulums: "We were the most devastating thing to ever happen to Yugioh."
Links: "Here, hold my beer."
Konami never gets tired of shitting on Yu Gi Oh
I actually liked pendulum, it brings more decisions in the game, so we wouldn't follow the same pattern... but link is really bad.
I mean link would be awesome as an additional format without ruining current Yu-Gi-Oh but that will never happen...
I thought Konami were taking the piss when they named an entire type of monsters "Xyz". How lazy can you be?!
PhobosDDeimos i guess it's because you "overlay" the monsters just like Xyz dragon, but castel, Tornado Dragon and Gear GiantX don't appear to be "overlayed" monsters
Synchro was a cool new way to summon.
XYZ was different but still a useful twist.
Pendulum added versatility and a "doom drop" style of summoning. still good.
Link just fucked everything up and somewhat crippled pendulum summoning. not a fan at all.
Not just somewhat,it totally fcked up my pendulum decks...
Interviewer: "So why did you decide to change the dueling field?

Fuck Pendulum honestly. Shit's broken af.
Just use a deck that doesnt use extra deck lol
As a first gen duelist and playing since. My suggestion is playing all within the limits of your friends. Truthfully, I am slowly adjusting to links but my decks dont have to run links. At least understand them for your opponent. For friends, you all keep it casual until the tournaments.... Buddy, yugioh is now for the one turn kills that easily favors one side instead of swinging it out back and forth. I still dislike links but I love yugioh too much to leave it.
Fuck Pendulum too tbh
Yeah I hate pendulums. Even when everything is calling me out to play pendulums, such as my Dark Magician deck appearing to work with the Magician Pendulum cards or my first deck I ever used (spellcounters) getting some pendulum support, I still refuse to play pendulums.

I love that all the comments are about how we all miss when Yugioh was actually comprehensible, I'm glad I'm clearly not the only one.
I am one of the people that played the game as a child when it first came out and it had a pretty big impact of my younger years.
I recently re-discovered a stash of cards and my love for the game, and since lacking people to casually play with in real life, I was excited to give the new YGO video game a chance because it received good reviews.
However, 30 minutes into the first levels of the campaign and my attention gets drawn away from the nostalgic duel scenarios to the new zones and I get utterly annihilated because the AI knew how to use it, I didnt. I rather play the GX Tag Force games again, it's a shame that after XYZ any new type made the game even more complicated and incomprehensive.
Me before watching the vid :
"Oh they just added one new type of summoning, won't be changing much the game haha."
After watching the vid
Me:
*Bruh...Wtf!!*
me before: oh a new type of card lets see if it can make old decks that lost all value become decent again (neos + pendulum)
me after: whelp neos has been revived just to be killed again and they ate his soul and corpse and he will never see light again
ethan cobabe Neo-Spacians have always been shit. They require such contrived situations in order to actually be good
What the hell has happened to this game, they've made it tragically annoying and confusing to be able to actually summon any extra deck cards. And if youdont play with link monsters you're screwed which means they're a forcing you to buy new cards to be able to even actually play
Chunkster fuck konami they only want ur money
Chunkster I'm actually glad they did this. OTK decks were becoming the norm. You shouldn't be able to summon 5+ times in a single turn.
Kiba Kitten too bad Links only sped things up more, hope ypu enjoy watching your opponent taking 15+ minutes to play out turn 1 and make a board you can't break
I’m not gonna be new decks and follow the new dual rules I’m still gonna play the way it was before
I haven't played YuGiOh in quite a while. Haven't tested link summoning, but is the game really that bad now? I quit long time ago because OTKs and insane locks were getting out of hand. When I heard about link summoning I thought - YEY FINALLY the game is gonna slow down, but if that is not the case i am not getting into yu gi oh ever ....
I will admit that I've defended all other types of summoning that were introduced, because people were being drama-queens about it.
*Synchro Summoning* _"GASP! You can fusion summon WITHOUT polymerization?! It's over, the game is broken, Yugioh is dead!"_
*Xyz Summoning* _"GASP! You can synchro summon WITHOUT a tuner monster?! It's over, the game is broken, Yugioh is dead!"_
*Pendulum Summoning* _"GASP! You can special summon several monsters WITHOUT using a spell card?! It's over, the game is broken, Yugioh is dead!"_
I will admit though, this new one is a little hard to defend...
Pendulum really just needed to remove the *sent to the extra deck to be resummoned* clause and they would have been manageable again... this just kinda screams overkill.
the only good thing about this is that they made pendulum summoning now come with a draw back. now all my decks have to be done over, a complete f***ing overhaul. each of my decks specialized a summoning method now its gone down the drain. when they released pendulum i thought "neat this could make all of these easier methods easier" i even though i could make my dream neos deck but NOPE!!!
Yugioh is dead since XYZ. I don't remember people saying Yugioh is dead when Synchro was out.
@@ethancobabe2420 i bet youre enjoying your dream neos deck now theyre broken 😂😂

They broke the game with Pendulum and used Links to fix it, hurting other decks in the process. Good idea, bad execution. I didn't like the mechanic, but am okay with it now, slows things down which is appreciated. But they could've done a much better job with it.

Well said my friend
Konami board meeting
Executive: Ok gang, what can we do to make this game more fucked and complicated than it already is?
Group: Switch out the two right and left spell/trap zones for pendulum zones, and add two more monster zones above the original monster zone that requires new monsters with a chain summoning technique!
Executive: I don't get it.......Lets fucking do it!
Top Kek yeah if you don't use pendulums, which I don't and won't, you still have 5 spell zones. So don't know what the argument is there.
its the best thing in yugioh i think, that is complex, and need to make a strategy. In Heartstone you just put some cards in the deck and done.
I didn’t know konami executives talked like fred from scooby-doo

And pendulum spam. Don't forget Pendulum spam.
Not dead, fam... You can still summon them on the normal mosnter zones without link monsters or the extra monster zone, (graveyard, hand, and banished zone.)
Pendulum spam relies on blowing up scales to massive summon and then extradeck plays (see pure metalfoes and metalfoes engine, even igknight to a lesser extent), they are very very dead.
And how does that equal dead exactly? there are plenty of pend decks that don't need to spam all of the time. (like zarc magicians and DDD's)
Anas Khayyat DDD decks rely on spam still so they can summon strong monsters quickly so with this ddd decks are dead
Remember that useless "Monster Replace" card from the anime, when Yugi used it against the Para Dox brothers? Now it has a use. :P
I'm hoping they start coming out with more cards like "Alien Infiltrator" that can either move zones themselves or cards that can move other cards around. That way the X-Zone won't actually be so limiting.

This is getting way too much complicated and unecessary and these link monsters just ruined all the original gamestyle we got since the beginning and most of the decks. I will stick with the old gameplay it was already hard to understand with the Pendulum. But I do like the idea of the Pendulum taking place in the Magic & Trap zone, might try a hybrid version of the game with the original Gameplay but with the Pendulum Zone in the Magic & Trap zone.

Andy Ramirez 😂😂 ikr I had to repeat parts of this video just for me to understand, I know, I'm a fuckin dumbass aren't I?
Links were the last nail in the coffin for me where Yu-Gi-Oh is concerned.
While I can applaud some of their card design and the push to break out of Yu-Gi-Oh's Zone limitations‚ it's just not the game I grew up with and played for years.
#Konami definitely ruined their own game with Links #FuckLinkMonsters
You grew up with Trash then, i quit as soon as Ritual and Fusion got bigger. I didnt even know the other ones existed till the other day.
They finally did it. They made mandatory cards. Every expansion they released sure you could jump on the new card train fall into the meta but you didnt have to. Now for any deck in the current card game that uses the extra deck REQUIRES these new cards. They have not only slowed down the game for anyone OTHER THAN THE NEW CARD TYPE but they have made a new card type that MUST be used. Every deck in the next pro tour will be a deck without an extra deck or with 90% link + some synchro for extra final push.
HobbsyTenTwentyThree exactly to have the advantage now you have to use link monsters if you want to special summon more than once from the extra deck thats how they slowed it down forced players to buy these cards pretty much
HobbsyTenTwentyThree I seen and I use a deck with no link monster but it's play style works around the new rules
The only thing I like is the minor pendulum nerf
Although it's a ton easier using link monsters, it isn't actually mandatory. I play D/D/Ds without a single links, and can still get a full field of extra deck monsters. (Except now I can have six instead of five!)
Lexey Yui May I inquire how you use ExDeck monsters outside of the one Extra zone without links?
I dont care about link summoning as long as someone in vrains spam summoms blue eyes ultimate dragon
see one half of me is telling me that link monsters are shit and its messing the game mechanics up especially for us old school players who run beat down decks and all the pros that come with the old cards. Yet the other half of me is seeing logic as it breaks down the flow of the extra deck and stops players spamming copies of the same op cards. That being said having to use link monsters is something i'm not down with atm, i still maintain that they should just have reformed the banned list and kept the original format. None the less, can't help but admit that some of the cards are pretty cool though.
the new format itself actually seems legit fun, since when your opponent can (apparently) also profit from your link zone. That would mean that there is huge outplay and mind game potential, however it kills to many of the old strategies and messes with the mechanics so much that it is basically a yu-gi-2.0h and not the same game anymore...
which is I guess the reason why people hate it so much, since it makes all of their old cards downright unusable without the addition of new cards and lets admit, those cards are expensive af
the wow cataclysm comparison was actually a really good one
@@j3nki541 link summoning broke the game. Combo decks right now can shit out unbreakable 7 monster boards that lock your opponent out of the game. Well that was before firewall got banned.
This cleared up virtually all my questions. Thanks.
I dont understand how a New comer can realisticly learn all of the yugioh rules by now. Is not like their New series are becoming any popular outside of Japan, in fact since the original series the anime is hardly attracting some attention and old fans dont seem too excited by the anime.
Learning the rules is one beast. Learning the summoning mechanics is the other beast. They have to be learned--and CAN be learned--separately.
I hear you, I finished watching the original anime and then went to GX. I couldn't get past the first episode because it made NO F****NG SENSE!! I think the "Duel School" s**t is what made me say "F**K THIS S**T, I'M OUT!!".

"With GX and onwards; it became all more and more childish"
I definitely agree that GX, Zexal, Arc-V, and VRAINS are all aimed at way younger target audiences and I don't enjoy them as much as the original Duel Monsters. However, 5D's is probably the most mature out of all the Yu-Gi-Oh shows and a gem among the spin offs. If you haven't given it a shot I highly recommend the sub; especially episodes 1-64.
"BTW, you do realize that XYZ, Pendulum, and Link Summoning are all pure capitalism, right?"
Absolutely, each new summoning mechanic is just another way for Konami to incentivize players to buy new cards.
Ryan Barker I liked GX. Out of all the protagonists, Judai is the one with the most REMOTELY normal looking hair. Plus, you should check out the Japanese sub of GX. It’s uncensored like it should be, especially season 3. 4Kids would fuck up season 4 badly, hence they didn’t dub that.

Zero time for fun tell me about it I've only been playing since summer of 2016 but I used watch my brother play and all I saw was a simple well run fun card game. Then after it being many years since the last time I saw Yugioh the game I saw was completely different.
for the most part the game didn't change much until this new link monster. it just added new summoning methods to increase lower level deck from what I've seen/ played.
james ellis you just have a bunch of new rules, special conditions and stuff. nothing much.
it 's totaly different now!
Zero time for fun Same here man i was thinking about going back but holy shit fuck this

@@DolusVulpes Synchros are definitely one of the best summoning mechanics; links are by far the worst.
Ryan Barker Synchros can make summoning powerful monsters a bit too easy, but are undeniably fun and fit in any deck
@@aramis9331 In my opinion it evens out since decks that can easily summon a powerful synchro monster have to be built around summoning that monster. There is still counterplay but I definitely know what you mean.
I really appreciate synchro summoning for being a fun and unique mechanic that does not disrupt the flow of other mechanics in the game. The reason I don't like link summoning isn't because of link summoning itself, it's because how much it nerfed fusion, synchro, and XYZ summoning.
I like the move of the pendulum zones but this completely destroys any deck based around the extra deck.
Yeah I'm now getting back into the game after a little break. My deck was mermails and it got hit pretty hard by link monsters
Fusion: the OG
Synchro: nice addition
XYZ: alright, maybe we should stop there before you...
Pendulum: what did you do that for
Link: alright everyone turn around and go back, konami ruined humanity for all of us
Ritual: Nobody ever remembers me :(
@@IslamBenfifiit hard asf to even ritual summon like you need a certain ritual card that matches a certain monster card to work which might need other card to draw the card you need etc
rip shooting quasar dragon stardust warrior and other synchron monsters that you need synchro monsters to summon rip
pechocha264 gaming I watched a video where summoned 5 quasars first turn with these new rules
You think they'll drop these rules if we just don't buy the Link cards?
lol. do you REALLY think the try hards that have absolutely NOTHING aside from the game won't be buying them? 🤔
Well, worth a shot. It usually only ever takes one thing to turn people away.
vm141789 every duelist player and their mom, will buy link monsters. Have you seen the link monsters so far. Theyre sick.
lol only people that would buy them are tryhards that refuses to lose no matter what over a childrens card game. They want to isolate themselves in front of us because they think they are special and we're not lmao.
Zhang Michael you sound butthurt for no reason.
I'm sorry but no thanks, I'll stick to the original board. Link summon my foot
😂😂😂😂
Hahahaha good one 😂 i also disagree with link summon such a bad new mechanics, synchoro and xyz era are acceptable but pendulum and link? LOL
You have speed duels and duel links no need to get all old man grumpy about this
David Orozco im new what is a speed duel?
@@technosword-hg4bm 3 monster and back row zones, no main phase 2, and each player has special skills(I think)
That's the kind of stuff you learn at the Duel Academy,right?
So the only thing that i have learned today is that i can throw all of my goddamn 20 decks in the trash...
Well then thank you konami
(Slowly claps)
I really appreciate that
(Still clapping slowly)
You finally did it
(Clapping stopped)
You've murdered your game!
I do understand that players of the old cards felt a little bit butthurt about the advantages modern extra deck based strategies provided to us players
But as far as i know the synchro and xyz monsters never restricted other decks in the way they where played
And yeah sure pendulum was op,
but a nerf like this is just not okay!
You can't just punish ALL extradeck monsters for ONE (failed) type and then FORCE your players to RAPE their good ol decks with this link sh*t
Now all of the dark magician and blue eyes players come like:
“oh, konami you saved us“
And
“praise the lurd for stopping people from fast summoning“
BUT
I do remember these decks getting MASSIVE support over the last years, not only by fusions but also by synchros and xyz
AND
I do think that with this blue eyed Maiden and the thundering roar of the silver dragon and ancient rules they also where able to summon their monsters really really fast
SO
I don't understand, why they had to devastate extra deck based strategies
ESPECIALLY
After the monarch deck (wich has no extra deck) boomed so hard, that it just shot right through the ceiling and streight into the limit and ban list, just because it was able to defeat extra deck based strats
Was the limitation on the monarchs in vain?
And didn't just this a$$woopingly strong deck prove that even in pendulum time it was possible to win without an extra deck?
Konami, you have been making the extra deck a part of yugioh for so many years, don't you think that taking it away like this will also take away a big part of the game and a part of your beloved customers hearts?
Don't you think restricting the op cards of the newer decks and giving new support cards to older decks would have been a better option than completely changing the whole game without any regards for the people that actually play it?
I know there will be comments that say
“pendulum is not op“
But i played it myself and i can surely say:
“against older decks, it is“
I know there will be comments, that say:
“link monsters are great, they are just what we needed, i don't know what you're talking about“
Just because you are either a sentimental fool living in the past or able to sh*t gold to afford this link paywall this does not give you the rights to take all of us extra deck dependent players our cards, strats, heartforged decks and even the fun of the game
You might be happy about an improvement for your deck
You migh feel really motivated to play links
But you also have to understand the pain of a hero or cyber dragon, an utopia or galaxy, a fusion, synchro and xyz, yeah even a pendulum loving player who has spent time, money, efford, work and blood for his decks, when there is an announcement that tells him that all these decks now are completely worthless
So you might just think about ur deck
Make it trash, trow it down the garbage can
How would you feel?
Do u understand it now?
If not you don't even deserve to own a deck...
In my opinion older decks should get a little push BUT new decks like gusto and gishki and burning abyss or dark world should not be forgotten
To bring real balance the game might just need some supps for the decks that already exist
New types just make it messier and that's not helping at all
So why don't just hang on to the cards we allready love?
true, that is I guess the reason why people hate link so much, in comparison to the old additions, as it actually messes with their old strategies, not just defeat them
Rasen Destroyer - Oh my fucking GOD!!! Thank you so much, I feel so exteriorized reading this comment, I was feeling the same damn way after getting what Links really meant for Yugioh. I truly hope that Konami is gonna step back in some way and AT LEAST instant delete that stupid normal monster zone to let players be able to summon from extra deck as before, but seeing how Konami changed the whole game and how are commercially designed to force you to by them if you want to kinda summon your monsters as before, I fear we wont really be able to “legally” play as we were used to. It just slows pointlessly down the pace of the game and made summoning and managing your field very rigid and unpractical, but also force to integrate this ruleset for 80% of any exisiting Decks if you want to play by the current rules. Before those links monsters came out, I fairly enjoyed all the archetypes of the game, even Pendulumn; if a player doesn’t like playing with certain more recent cards, they weren’t force to include it in their Deck to be able to play as anyone with friends, despite not necessarily being Meta Deck as long as they have fun with it. Now, the Links are restricting older Decks as well to use them; and as easy it seems to say that we’ll ignore those new rulesets and play as we’d like, I bet a lot of us would like to go to some regional or bigger tournaments to have some good time trying to do our best with our beloved deck; but welp, guess we’ll have to adapt if we want to keep playing the game by Konami’s rules. Dick move Konami, dick move...
I don’t think I intended to write such a long message in the first place, but I guess I needed to vomit my frustration about this, and your 1 y.o. comment gave me the inspiration, Thanks dude :)
it ultimately improved the entire game bringing more players to the card game

Apologies about any mistakes in this video as im still learning Link summoning myself.

You gotta love how the newest series, Sevens, instead of inventing new card types or summoning types, instead just invents a whole fucking new ruleset to play the game!
I didn't know this existed and combined with links new rules I had a stroke
How to use Link Summoning.
1. Don't!
2. Never play the game again.
3. Just watch the anime instead.
or play the video games where the cards are free!
Brian Sanders tag force 6 and special are still (for me) the best place to play yu gi oh to avoid these stupid new type of cards
Fuck the Ingame people fuck the cards make it so its all monsters in a conquest or pvp game and they would make a hell ton of cash without people being ripped off.
Aw come on don't be like that
Brian Sanders 4. Profit
one of the best things of yugioh was it was generally easy to play and pick up, and as the added new kinda of cards you just added that to your knowledge of the game. but drastically changing the mechanics of the game ruins it for casual players
Casual or not. Broken, unbalance and unhealthy strategies are not welcome and should be dealt with. The change was needed, otherwise you have decks like zoo running rampant with ONE card into 3 extra deck monsters without wasting normal summons.
speller
I agree.
Uria: I absolutely hate xyz/pendulum and all those wannabe "fusions" that just summon themselfes. But that still was better than forcing everyone to use this link bullshit and making old cards completely useless
tbh it really dosent. think of it as smogon for competitive Pokemon players. if you prefer casual laid back mons then you don't care whats on smogons banlist. same concept you dont have to use their new rules, if anything they should apply link sommon rules to locals with advancement and regulated tourneys, otherwise normal locals and casual play it shout be fine. tbh as far as hobbies are concerned certain rules are optional, especially when your playing casually for fun.
this make old card great again dude, i mean before synchro era, i d rather play this than 1 hour loop synchro, xyz, pend and u cant do nothing abt this.
Why can't we go back to the old days of yugioh when it was simple and easy to play now we have this
You mean when the whole game was La-Jinn beatdown?
Cause you'll probably get bored and stop spending money on their products.
They should've learned from poker. It barely has any drastic change and remain the world's most popular card game for decades. Casinos consistently make millions every year and card companies aren't losing their business. If anything, the industry seems to be getting bigger and bigger.
Instead, they learn from video game tournaments. Bunch of dumbasses.
You can still play old style amongst your homies
GOAT Format forever
Recently thought I'd play Yu-Gi-Oh again. Guess not.
I feel ya'.
Same here, bud.
I'm giving it a go but it's hard to keep up with the new rules and game structure.
Just a quick tip: When pendulum summoning from the extra deck, they have to go into the Extra Monster Zone or where link markers are pointing.
This makes pendulum summoning much harder and much more annoying.
It seems to be complicated just for the sake of being complicated and new
@Omega Zero yeah is easy to summon but har when it comes to positioning your cards and guessing how you oponent will place the cards ( in case you start first) to get the juicy combo.
Me a few months ago: Link killed my pendulum!!!
Me after actually looking into link summoning: Hey, this actually makes my odd eyes deck more broken.
So like I haven't played ygo or followed but the change to the board is the WORST change in the history of the game.
1) nerfing s/ts
2) NERFING / destroying practically every single extra deck in existence by limited the number of Extra monsters on field without LINKs.
3) Konami trolling is beyond godlike
this is like when runescape 2 turned into runescape 3,
its eoc all over again, GG Yugioh
lol I pray we get a oldschool
idrinkchocomil exactly!!! Lol 😅😭
idrinkchocomil wtf am I reading.. Oh it's about mtg?
lol no it's about Runescape & how the entire game changed then years later the developers made an older version of the game again
Actually, the game isn't dead. Same for decks that used to spamm extra deck monsters. The game is slowed down. Back in the day, we used to end a duel in 3-4 turns. Now it's a bit longer, and force you to think about what zone you summon your monsters. Also, you need to think well before summoning a monster, because you can only get 1 at the time.
Or you could like... pretend this doesn't exist.
Or you could like... Play Monarchs

Pay 8 feel great bro!!
i like the way you think
yes.
Man I really miss the GX era where all you needed was 3x poly to summon your strongest monsters.
Whereas Pendulum changed the game drastically, it still felt like Yugioh. Link Summoning literally ruined Extra deck for people that wanna focus on Synchro, Xyz, Pendulum, heck even classic Fusion summoning has it rough. All those epic combos protagonists used in past seasons aren't even possible now. I can understand adding new mechanics, but forcing older mechanics to change is just silly.
FlareBattle
Rip my E-Heroes :c
Except the fact that Pendulum summons made having an extra deck OP to begin with since you could get several monsters out and use them to rapid summon super powered XYZ/Synchro summon in 2 to 3 turns. Making it impossible for a person who didn't have pendulum summoning to counter the opponent before getting blasted and losing. So if you want to be mad at a game changing mechanic, get mad at Pendulum summoning. Link summoning is just the attempt to fix the damage it caused.
Ian Hunter I've heard the meta doesn't even rely heavily on Pendulums, the other summoning methods also had potential to get cards out fast, it just took more planning. There were ways to counter it too. Instead of creating Link Summoning to completely erase the past potential of Pendulums, Pendulums did the opposite and enhanced the capabilities of past cards, even normal summons. It's honestly the way they did it too. They actually had to change the field that drastically instead of actually creating a new card type that could counter it. That's pretty lame.
EDIT:
I can see the point though and it makes sense. But personally for me, Pendulums were really fun, it's just disappointing that they've rendered a great mechanic that low.
FlareBattle
Yes, the reason Pendulums aren't Meta is because they have to waste their resources on scales just to pendulum summon, and the mechanic is easy to side deck against.
Fairy Wind
Magical Spring
Twin Twisters
Anti Spell Fragrance
Dimensional Barrier
and that erata'd imperial card that prevents spells from being activated...
FlareBattle I congratulate you for actually explaining your reasoning for hating links. 99% of link haters sound like their in rage mode or throwing tantrums.
I will never play yu gi oh like this.....I will always play the original way
LordButternubs
pendulums is the most recent I will play. Fuck links.
if you started using pendulums, you will also start using links.because you wanna win and you gonna pick what other people use.that's your life.pretty much predictable.
Honestly they should've stopped at Synchros. Xyz could've been cool, but they didn't handle it correctly. Pendulum was a flawed concept they made work for whatever reason. Link is like a President walking into the mess of several predecessors and trying desperately to salvage the situation. It doesn't seem like it will work.
So no other summoning after ritual and Fusion?
Simmlex nah like synchro is cool in my opinion, and xyz could be worse and I still like it, but pendulum made it too easy to get monsters out
Konami: how do we make more money?
Change the entire game and make all previous play styles weak
I just wished link summoning was an optional duel lol
I would play without the link rules but I'm sure YGO pro doesn't have the option
if they put "synchro, fusion and xyz can be played in the main monster zone" I would not complain about links.
maybe they will add a separate division for not using link monsters
It does actually
I personally don't like the new update either. It's a bit complicated and changes the whole game. I'm not recognizing Yu-Gi-Oh anymore. Some players say It's meant to limit the power of Pendulum. But actually we all got used to Pendulum and didn't need new monsters/new rules to win
How to link summon:
-step 1: don't
Edit: I began to use the link format cuz my friends are all playing the format (pls don't hurt me)
Don't worry I started to play Link too, but in my case just to annoy my Friends.
I started using it a week ago (along with Pendulum) and it's not bad. Links are weird for sure, but I am using a Pendulum deck and it helps balance the summoning method to prevent crazy spamming every turn. Even I wouldn't want to spam 5 monsters a turn every turn.
Couldnt they have changed the rules without changing the field and forcing you to get new cards? Lime limit extra deck summoning to once per.
"You can only perform 1 fusion, 1 Xyz, and 1 Syncro summon per turn."
Bam, done. No field changing, no Link monsters needed, slightly harder to flood the field with special summons.
Dear God this is complicated what has Konami done to this card game???????
Jared Ohlstein Not really. It's just a matter of having. ANY link monster to make use of your extra deck
Still less confusing and retarded than Pendulum
LordSillyBottom your kidding right, pendulum was easy af, Link summoning made the game long and boring. It's really gay.
Vantage Games You can't just throw words like that out there like you're an ignorant 5 year old. It's also a good chanhe from the usual. (I have 3 monsters first turn cause i special summon and then i synchro/XYZ and win cause I'm invincible now.)
Pendulums had all these weird mechanics built into them.
And we don't know how much this will slow the game down, but the game bloody needed it.
2-3 turns games are shit, and the only ones complaining are novices, skilled players welcome a slower and more strategic game.
I am from the furute. Tthe year 2043 and there is stupid, Taco's, over complicated and screw the rules summoning. The field is layout like a keyboard.
You spelled future wrong.phones can't even correct in the future now?
The Autocorrect Wars were bloody and brutal. We don't talk about those dark times. >.>
I can confirm this
they also made a new summoning type called tekron

Friends Gaming You are obviously a whiny and picky cry baby who judges books by their covers.
dude this is for h
peoples not for games
Friends Gaming I noticed that 99% of link haters just like you say something along the lines of "Yu-Gi-Oh is dead!", "Screw links!", "I hate links!" "Fuck Konami" and etc but don't explain their reasoning making them sound like whiny cry babies. I applaud the 1% of link haters who explain themselves cause they at least sound like they aren't going into rage mode or throwing tantrums.
Friends Gaming that's basically what everybody said when every other card type came around but did yugioh really go bye bye after they came out, no, sure they're maybe a few quitters but I actually some advantage to these link monsters, because then decks that rely on the extra deck can only use one unless they have a link monster on the field and pendulum monster decks that basically rely on the extra deck are going to be limited on there choices unless they have a link monster and there are plenty of decks that don't need an extra deck.
That day when youve got a 25 turn, and still depend on your black magician
You are at your friend's house and your friend goes "hey i got a brand new board game, let's try it out". He brings the game and you start reading the rule book. The rules are so many and so overcomplicated that you spend like an hour reading the entire book, but you don't even remember what you read at the first pages because you now have a headache. In the end you say "fuck it let's play video games". That's yu-gi-oh.

Me: What the hell is pendulum summoning?!?!

How to Link Summon.
"Vomit to the table and walk away".
I only feel pain remember when yugioh was more understandable and less brain melting
Oh man, I actually like this feature. It feels like it can actually give weaker decks a chance by preventing the opponent from summoning their entire special deck at once, and the link mechanics along with 2 extra zones sounds like a whole new world of strategy and planning.
Who needs to summon all their extra deck when they can still open the floodgates to fill their field with 3-5 cards from their normal deck in a single turn?

Honestly glad they lifted the restriction for extra deck monster summons in November 2021 allowing us to summon more then one extra deck monster at a time without needing to link summon and it’s also nice that we can still use all the old summon styles the way we used to in conjunction with link summons
