@@yubeluchiha foreal. I grew up on yu-gi-oh up until 5ds. Synchro was the last thing I remembered. When master duel came out on XBOX I was confused AF🤣...I'm sending fools to the shadow realm now tho! I caught up quick. Spyral and DDD are my favorite decks to play with.
I stopped when they banned my Chaos cards and came back for Master Duel. Chaos deck did fine though half the cards were still banned or got Errata'd to death. Still a little elbow grease and Chaos is as good as ever.
Same, back in 2008 when I graduated right before the crash. I want to get back in eventually, but I have so much to catch up on and collect first. Ironically, this modern style is what I attempted back in my day, but it has been seriously ramped up. Now I think my old aggro-control style may just have become much more powerful with the rapid improvement, and that now everyone is playing the same way I used to, I will actually face a real challenge. Back then, I used to play in 4+ free-for-all's regularly and never lost, now I think I will be getting by rear trumped regularly, lol!
Same. I started playing again few weeks ago after not playing for like 17 years and I'm still extremely lost. I've been studying for weeks and I don't have a clue how to build a deck anymore. Even when I'm playing online a game takes me forever because I have to read each card like 3 times each lol.
Same played duel links was ok felt it was nerfed to old school cause of the 3 cards on field but i still enjoyed it. Now on master duel started like that have fix a deck a bit can win at least now but still feeling lost on a lot of the new cards and rules for each summoning
You know you can look for formats that utilize older cards and rules if you preferer the older style of play, or you can set up those kinds of meet ups your self
And that's why i made a whole deck with gaia black luster soldier combined with a bunch of effective warriors and raigeki mirror force black hole and a bunch of cards that will destroy all of their's XYZ and special summoned monsters 😅😂and i make them mad with a simple old cards 😂
Facts don't even bother playing the games they made on steam. A mf will turn a 15 second turn into a 2 minute summoning cycle that ends in you losing in turn 3. 😂😭
Accurate as hell - when I tried to come back, I had no idea what new cards did and all the opponents would say was like a single word from the card name and just stare. It was fun making them explain what every card did before I never played ever again, lmao
Newer Yu-Gi-Oh meta players who just assume you know what they're doing because they have like 4 basic strategies is hilarious to me. Especially when my ancient deck that I've been modifying for 15 years is able to get a leg up on them, because I'm not using one of those 4 strategies.
I walked into a shop with my Five headed dragon/dragons mirror summon deck. Saw a childhood friend who still played there. Asked if he wanted to duel. This man showed me no mercy.
I returned after not playing since 2016 and when I was building a deck I'm like YOOOO I CAN USE HARPIES FEATHER DUSTER RAIGEKI AND MONSTER REBORN??? BLS ENVOY IS AT 3??? My first game dude summons a full negate board of link monsters. I'm like huh, these new ritual monsters look weird. Why are they in the middle of the board, and where are the defense points?
This literally happened to me at anime expo LA. I brought my old troll deck that had lava golem, solar flare dragons, and the self destruct button and I played just 3 cards. Bother summoned 4 monsters over 2500 attack in the first turn using special summons, synchro summons, fusions, and even 1 ritual card. It was insane. He cleared my field and did 10k first turn. I refuse to play with anyone now that uses cards printed past 2010 😂
We are almost same i loved my lava golem and my stall and burn deck it placed me in 11th at one of regional tournament with 2000 people now a day i would be at bottom last lol
Floowandereeze is quite different. Basically makes your opponent think they'll win, and then deletes their field and kills them. At least, mine does. Floowandereze/Raiza/Apex/Shifter/Earthbound Immortal.
Bro this just happened to me last weekend. Played Yu Gi Oh for the first time years. I have a precon deck from the early 2000s mixed with a couple Schoolastic magazine Yu-Gi-oh promo cards. I played against my older brother whos recently been playing Yu-Gi-Oh this past year. I recently bought him underworld goddess and other cards for his birthday. I dont understand the cards but they looked cool. I finally gave in and played a match with him. He linked summoned/searched/played all this crazy stuff. I told him "okay imma scoop. Dont ask me to play anymore."
He’s doing him a favor. Game’s moved too far to ever go back to the version he was playing. By showing him what the game is actually like now, you let him decide for himself whether the game is still for him before he potentially wastes his money buying into a game he no longer enjoys.
@@Racoon4432 YGO has been better than its ever been these last few years. The claim the people are leaving to other TCG's is overstated and not actually a huge problem. Also imagine not playing a game in 20 years. Doing 0 zero research, but taking the time to find a local and showing up with 20 year old cards. Who's to blame? Exactly.
@@BurningFyre I'm legitimately glad they nerfed it by moving the Pendulum Zones to the Spell Trap/Zones and requiring a Link Monster to Pendulum Summon more than one at a time. I am not happy they did this initially by nerfing _literally everything except Normal Summons._
@@josediazasmr6014 long story short its a way to special summon multiple creatures from your hand or extra deck between levels based on the pendulum cards you have in play. So if you had a level 8 and level 4 pendulum creature, you could fill your field with monsters between those levels all at once, for free. Its completely broken.
@@ajregalia1334 my last deck was a chaos deck. That was when I stopped playing. I went from a beat down deck, to exodia, to a yatalock deck (lol!), to chaos. The good old days.
I stopped playing during the synchro era, and i thought the game couldn't get more annoying and sillier. Boy, I was wrong, it's not yugioh anymore nowadays, 90% of the mechanics are too different, might as well regard it as a different card game. No other TGC went this obnoxious.
Some how yugi would find some bullshit way to win the match with that same shitty hand or it might be the power of friendship they always talk about throughout the match
@@comradecat1922”swords of revealing light disable special summons and stab every blue eyes summoned, sending them to the graveyard. Additionally for each blue eyes white dragon destroyed by this card inflict its atk damage value back onto the owners life points”
@@anonymous05067that was me, until I got fed up and made an exodia deck. Now they all either lose in one turn, or surrender once they realize what I’m doing.
There was an event a while ago that banned a lot of newer cards and hand traps. You basically could only respond with cards already on the field. It felt so good to play during that event.
I don’t know why. It would just be ruled by Dark Magician. DM still has relevancy even in MD now. The only thing that can carry Blue Eyes is Jet Dragon.
Legacy of the Duelist has this game mode where you're given random cards from certain booster packs and you have build a deck with those cards. They should add it to Master Duel as a permanent game mode where you can face the AI or other players.
I could kinda hop back in and still manage I used to play old cyber dragons so shouldn’t be too hard to get back in since I hear they are still relevant to this day
@@tevin1633 cyber dragons are still Definitely a thing and very strong deck, in duel links and master duel, also in-person competitions,,, you should also try the superheavy samurai's,, that's a tuner deck ,,, anyways have fun dueling 👍
I had a game master duel when homie summon six card two xyz and two link then discarded all my hand and banded 4 of my monster zone while banning about 28 cards from my deck and 4of my extra deck I surrendered and deleted the game not as fun anymore
@@alvinvelez1641 when yugioh was still a new game the rule was 1 monster card down and you can put down as many spell/trap cards down. hell when it first came out it was 1 card down period. so you could choose between a spell/trap card or a monster.
Duel Links opened my eyes up. My screen goes black a lot of times waiting on my opponent to get through their turn. So many chain reactions and special summons.
This happened to me when I tried getting back into the game 5 years ago. I made a deck that you had recommended (the video was already around 10 months old) that had become obsolete already. Went to a local card shop tournament. After 3 duels I didn’t even get to attack. Didn’t even summon successfully on 1-2 of the duels. RIP Yugioh!
Also happened to me too. Friend had to explain to me that you don't draw on the first turn. I was confused beyond belief. Worst part was whe I picked up back the game, it was the link meta. So I fucked myself over when I was xyz summoning into the extra monster zone and being told I cant summon anymore cuz I don't have a link.
@@peaj4812 yea it's real. Because yugioh evolved so much. They adjusted the rules to make it fair. Cuz now a days. You can basically win the match in like 2 turns because a lot of decks can make unbreakable boards or just super annoying boards with like 4-7 negates(not including traps or handtraps if have them). So to make it more fair they just say, if get the option to go first and you'll probably make an disgusting board where the opponent can't even play anyway. So no draw on the first turn for you. Person who goes second gets to draw on their first turn cuz that will give an actual shot at breaking the cuz they have one extra card to work with. If you play any of the dueling simulators(duelingnexus, ygopro, edopro, master duel) you'll see this as well.
Pre-Synchro was the Golden Era of Yugioh and you can't change my mind. For those of you saying that Synchro was still okay, NO this already opened up the floodgates, cards summon with the restriction that they could not be tributes or attack no longer became niche options but prime Synchro material to swarm the field. Synchro was the first summoning mechanic to open up the flood gates, everything after build up on that.
It's basically display current modern people. Everything needs to be fast to stimulate the brain for short period. Wether it's Tik Tok, a very fast MOBA game or Yu-Gi-Oh. People are even addicted to very fast chess games which are on a very low time.
Its a different game because playing 1 normal monster a turn got boring fast. No other tcg is nearly as complex and for a lot of modern players that's the entire appeal! There's so much intracacy and interaction haha. You could maybe play Magic or Goat Format or something if you want that old slow paced action?
this is accurate to my first yugioh match against a random person. i put down an attack card, then my opponent places down 17 cards at once, says a bunch of stuff, and says “i win”. then i walked away and cried. keep in mind i was 8 years old.
To every old school player returning: the current meta is to stop your opponent from doing anything. If you pull a knife when he starts his turn you technically win.
Literally, you've got to fart and waft that shitty smelling air in their direction... Awarding you the win on their technical forfeit, unless they just want to sit there and breathe it in.
We need more official formats for yugioh, magic the gathering has like a dozen, I would love to play old cards like a classic duel, not watching my opponent spend 15 minutes playing cards and I die
I use a toon deck and give them a run for thier money like 3 out of 5 times but to many players who are up to date on battling. Sooner or later ill make one like thiers😂
fr it would be sick to have them have different classes based on the different versions of the rulebooks that were included with the tins and starter decks back in the day, and limit cards to anything released from launch up til that rulebook revision, making stuff like dark hole or monster reborn tourney viable again.
I miss the good ol days where we actually explain every effect, spell cards and trap cards to our opponents because it's more fun just like the anime 😂
Blame the time times and Konami’s text vomit It’s not common and an extreme just normal people take about 1min 18 secs to read through Endymion Regardless I f it being an outlier no card should take that long
If you are a returning player and have a hard time try playing a Shaddoll deck it is very intuitive you don't have to worry about most of the new mechanics and still have a powerful meta archetype
When I wanted to get into yu-gi-oh. My friendS said, “don’t, trust us you don’t wanna” and explained there are so many different rules they haven’t really mastered all of it
I’m trying to get back into to yu gi oh , it’s been 18 years since I owned a deck. Ngl it’s rough lmao master duel kinda helped to see how much the game has changed but I’m still lost most of the time
I stopped playing in 03... I don't even recognize the game anymore. I think the newest cards I have are from Pharaoh's Servant. I still like going through them and remembering.
I feel the same way about the modern Yugioh and still don't understand. Besides, I highly recommend buying a Legendary Decks II which I got from Best Buy this weekend, and then bought the next 6 booster packs from Target. I need my old Yugioh cards from the early 00s so I can organize and use them for fun.
@@TheRecklessMetalhead yeah! I actually went to the old comic shop here in town and they have all the structure decks and booster packs plus I was pleasantly surprised to find they're still printing all the original boosters I remember. And they're not badly priced (relative to when I was a kid). After watching a ton of videos and browsing the YGO sub on Reddit I'm starting to get a handle on everything I've missed.
You ain’t gonna trap that deck so easy. The blue eyes build Is literally in the top five best winning decks in real championships. There is just too many bosses you can play in like 2 rounds 😂
@@kevinhamilton2521 blue eyes has not been competitively viable in yugioh outside a brief period around 2016. Currently it does absolutely nothing and nobody plays it - outside of casual settings of course, but you were talking about tournaments. If I played someone using blue eyes at a tournament I would definitely tell my friends, because it'd be a very noteworthy event to find someone even _trying_ to perform with the deck.
I just came back and started to play the Master Duel game recently. I'd recommend any returners to go do so. The duel training/strategy practice games are very intuitive so you can learn what things like pendulum and links are
@@notthebeastinus2786 That's what I did yesterday a day after I bought a Legendary Decks II from Best Buy and got addicted to collecting Yugioh cards once again.
It’s funny. Every time I choose to take an extended break, the true love of my card game experience, Skull Servants, gets one more bit of support that makes me want to come back and give my child some updates. It’s a shame I’ll never duel with it irl, not with how things are.
The current Yu-Gi-Oh : 1. your opponent goes first > spend half of his deck > now he have field full of high attack monster with absurd effects 2. Your opponent goes second > chain his entire deck > he win
@@thebelmont1995 well better than spending idk 15 min to get a field.... like no way dude XD it just sucks how the game is today... I do had some fun matches against some players in masterduel, but still too many boring meta stuff.. Im glad I took a break for now ^^
@@darthjandlightj I know what yugiboomer said. And it's not. Not at all lol. It's evolved into a much more complex and much more skill based game then it ever has been. It's just people who are bad and people who are just not smart enough to adapt that complain. They don't like the complexity of new YGO. So they would prefer a game that is simple and easy and takes less skill and less thinking because it's preferable to them. Which is fine. But to say the state of the game is bad is sad. Admittedly Kashtira format is pretty dreadful atm. But modern YGO is isn't. But the current state of YGO is actually infinitely better than old school. Old school took no skill, was slow, simple and boring. It was also very 1 dimensional. Hence why I said if he wanted to turn his brain off just go play uno.
This is exactly my problem. I've spent hours watching videos on the new meta and I still wouldn't beat a single person. Old yugioh is where I'll stay 😊
Yes, this was me when i want to make a deck in modern times, i quit playing in 2006 when i was 13 years old, now i saw a tutorial How to play with the New rules, i fall asleep in 2 minutes, man, now i have 31 years old and i dont get it now.but i love so much the art of this cards so much. Blows my head.
Most broken tcg ever. In 10 years most battle will probably be finished in 1 turn or 2 given the possibilites of how much you can do with card effects and all kinds of different special summons now.
Remember when we actually played with them cards instead of keeping them in a cold safe storage to sell them after some years? Miss my childhood so bad rn
this how i feel takin a break on Apex or Street Fighter. I come back, everything’s nerfed, everything else is buffed, and there new characters who are overpowered and I’m 56 years old all of a sudden
Broooo that’s exactly like me when you haven’t played Yu Gi Oh in ages and then your opponent does all kind of stuff just to summon 2/3 monsters on his side 🤷🏻♂️💀
It used to be WORSE. For a while, a lot of decks were built around a 0 turn kill - you choose to go second, then activate the effects of cards in your hand to do a bunch of stuff to beat your opponent during _their_ turn. And if it wasn't that, it was all Lockdown decks that would prevent the opponent from playing Spells and Traps, using Monster Effects. attacking, summoning, or literally doing anything other than forfeiting the game.
@@OtakuUnitedStudio There's no possible way to ZTK and you never have been able to. I'm guessing you're talking about Firewall format, the year and a half time period after SPYRAL format and before TOSS where various ways to FTK with Firewall dragon was the only thing anyone was doing. But it's impossible to ZTK other than opening Exodia, as almost all burn and draw cards can only be activated on your turn. Even if you hypothetically summoned 3 Blaze Phoenix on your opponent's first turn using the Tear cards you wouldn't be able to activate their effects so you still would lose.
I had not played Yu-Gi-Oh since 2004(8th grade)then in 2010 I had a baby I waited till she was 5 to teach her and her younger brother to play while we watched the anime. I didn't know they even made GX. Shocked at the amount of additions and summoning mechanics . But in recent times I made it to diamond once and consistently make it to platinum using fusion based decks the best way to play.
Then you see an eight year old summon goku and vegeta monster cards using a spell card. The same kid plays the field card Namek. The kid then lays two faced down cards in spell/trap card zone. One to swap monsters with each other and other to sacrifice any vegata monsters to replace the switched monster into krillin but is faced down. Krillin's effect is when destroyed, sacrifice Goku and place Super Saiyan Goku on the field
Same I came back after stopping after GX abd it feels like they have massively overdone it with trying to keep the game fresh. Wayyyy to many special summons and negates. I mean what's the fun, when everyone summons 3 top monsters in their first 1-3 turns and matches are so often over within the first turns, doesn't feel like duelling anymore :/
This is not a worthy game any more. Winner or loser, it's sad game for both participants. I wonder how Konami could let it get so bad. Really not worth coming back to it and spending the slightest amount of money. Any other known card game and it's corresponding online platform is a much better experience.
@@michaelq4965 depends if you spent time thinking or actually making moves. Basically every small move amimation stops the timer, so you can see a person play everything almost instantly and may have even a 20 minute turn depending on their deck and combos and your timer could be ending constantly because you pause to think your moves. As I said, toxic faulty game anymore, not worth the time at all. So many good card games out there, I've had more fun playing even the Pokemon TCG online lately which I've been dismissing my whole life than I ever did in Master Duel for chrissakes.
This is so accurate! I felt this playing duel links for the first time (coming from only knowing DM rules). But I love how broken yugioh is now that I've learnt the new way of playing, it's just so much fun ♥️
@michaelm8529 idk about that. In some ways powercreep is inevitable as there's only so many combonation of letters you can write on cards, but at the same time magic the gathering has been going for longer and has suffered less from it so its certainly possible to mitigate. Heck in mtg the vintage format is way more powerful than the modern format and most of that difference power level comes from older cards. Technically speaking outside of some edge cases most card types have gotten weaker in more recent sets, except creatures which were trash in the first sets XD.
@@dumatrising2421 difference being that other card games have energy at their core so there's a universal limit. Pot of greed can exist in other games because of the limitations to the systems in the game. In Yu-Gi-Oh it's broken. I think rush duels are actually quite interesting because it makes the powerful speed of high tier Yu-Gi-Oh more universal. I'd also be interested in seeing an experimental Yu-Gi-Oh format that only allows 1 negate or removal per either players turn. Not sure what people would come up with in it's place but it'd be interesting to see
@@michaelm8529 sure but also the old cards suffered the same constraints, and were talking relative power creep not the comparative power of separate card games. We can still view cards as how good are current cards vs old card. A magic card being twice as good might mean something different than a yugioh card being twice as good, but since we're measuring the change from old to new it doesn't matter the power of magic to yugioh. you might like that one format that plays with older cards then. I don't play much yugioh but I hear it's getting pretty popular with folks that prefer yugioh back when exodia was the only ftk you could do.
@x5j94 Opening card packs to build said decks is a lottery, and buying them solo online gets you scalped via egregious pricing. Analog Yugioh is dead, play dueling sims 🤡

Pendulum summons broke my brain
@@BurningFyre I'm legitimately glad they nerfed it by moving the Pendulum Zones to the Spell Trap/Zones and requiring a Link Monster to Pendulum Summon more than one at a time.
I am not happy they did this initially by nerfing _literally everything except Normal Summons._
WTF IS PENDELUM SUMMON
@@josediazasmr6014 long story short its a way to special summon multiple creatures from your hand or extra deck between levels based on the pendulum cards you have in play. So if you had a level 8 and level 4 pendulum creature, you could fill your field with monsters between those levels all at once, for free. Its completely broken.
The "I know what it does" is just perfect !
My experience 5 hours into YGO Legacy of the Duelist vs 70 hours into it, right down to the literal decks lol

There was an event a while ago that banned a lot of newer cards and hand traps. You basically could only respond with cards already on the field. It felt so good to play during that event.
Over here we have what is called classic encounters for those than doesnt enjoy this kind of play
I don’t know why. It would just be ruled by Dark Magician. DM still has relevancy even in MD now. The only thing that can carry Blue Eyes is Jet Dragon.
Legacy of the Duelist has this game mode where you're given random cards from certain booster packs and you have build a deck with those cards. They should add it to Master Duel as a permanent game mode where you can face the AI or other players.

the "how are you summoning so many cards" hits home. I remember when you could only summon 1 card per turn.
Technically you’ve always been able to special summon unlimited times there just weren’t that many ways to do it back then
I had a game master duel when homie summon six card two xyz and two link then discarded all my hand and banded 4 of my monster zone while banning about 28 cards from my deck and 4of my extra deck I surrendered and deleted the game not as fun anymore
@@alvinvelez1641 when yugioh was still a new game the rule was 1 monster card down and you can put down as many spell/trap cards down. hell when it first came out it was 1 card down period. so you could choose between a spell/trap card or a monster.
You have always only been able to normal summon once per turn, but special summoming is unlimited, so all those extra monsters were special summons.
@@alvinvelez1641 Pretty sure 20 years ago, there was no such thing as a "special summon". Only Special Effect cards.
Duel Links opened my eyes up. My screen goes black a lot of times waiting on my opponent to get through their turn. So many chain reactions and special summons.
This happened to me when I tried getting back into the game 5 years ago. I made a deck that you had recommended (the video was already around 10 months old) that had become obsolete already.
Went to a local card shop tournament. After 3 duels I didn’t even get to attack. Didn’t even summon successfully on 1-2 of the duels. RIP Yugioh!
I love the draw explanation. “No you can’t. New rules” 😂
Also don't know xyz 🤣👍
Also happened to me too. Friend had to explain to me that you don't draw on the first turn. I was confused beyond belief. Worst part was whe I picked up back the game, it was the link meta. So I fucked myself over when I was xyz summoning into the extra monster zone and being told I cant summon anymore cuz I don't have a link.
@@tommymoodie2157 Wait that's real? I thought he was just picking on him for being new.
@@peaj4812 yea it's real. Because yugioh evolved so much. They adjusted the rules to make it fair. Cuz now a days. You can basically win the match in like 2 turns because a lot of decks can make unbreakable boards or just super annoying boards with like 4-7 negates(not including traps or handtraps if have them). So to make it more fair they just say, if get the option to go first and you'll probably make an disgusting board where the opponent can't even play anyway. So no draw on the first turn for you. Person who goes second gets to draw on their first turn cuz that will give an actual shot at breaking the cuz they have one extra card to work with.
If you play any of the dueling simulators(duelingnexus, ygopro, edopro, master duel) you'll see this as well.
@@peaj4812 bruh
"KNOW WHAT IT DOES!"
The overlap with that in mtg is insane. You'll go to read a card and someone shouts, "I KNOW!"
Pre-Synchro was the Golden Era of Yugioh and you can't change my mind. For those of you saying that Synchro was still okay, NO this already opened up the floodgates, cards summon with the restriction that they could not be tributes or attack no longer became niche options but prime Synchro material to swarm the field. Synchro was the first summoning mechanic to open up the flood gates, everything after build up on that.
Had to come here after the high school bully audio i was like na pump me back up 😂 ❤❤
I miss 2005 Yu-Gi-Oh. It made sense to me and people had fun. Nowadays its a completely different game.
goat format
Go play goat
I'm old school, I don't like how you can play today hahah
It's basically display current modern people. Everything needs to be fast to stimulate the brain for short period. Wether it's Tik Tok, a very fast MOBA game or Yu-Gi-Oh. People are even addicted to very fast chess games which are on a very low time.
Its a different game because playing 1 normal monster a turn got boring fast. No other tcg is nearly as complex and for a lot of modern players that's the entire appeal! There's so much intracacy and interaction haha. You could maybe play Magic or Goat Format or something if you want that old slow paced action?
Staring at your 1st edition Jinzo in despair, because you knew if you played it in a duel today, it would be instantly gone
Not me boyyy i got a dope ass jinzo deck
Jinzo actually still kinda useful... Especially if you have a friend who likes Traptrick.
It does have ways around him but still
Does make them suffer
Jinzo's pretty nice to play against Traptrix or Labrynths
Wait till bro hears about Pendulum summoning
Magic is starting to become Like this standard
this is accurate to my first yugioh match against a random person. i put down an attack card, then my opponent places down 17 cards at once, says a bunch of stuff, and says “i win”. then i walked away and cried. keep in mind i was 8 years old.
To every old school player returning: the current meta is to stop your opponent from doing anything. If you pull a knife when he starts his turn you technically win.
Literally, you've got to fart and waft that shitty smelling air in their direction...
Awarding you the win on their technical forfeit, unless they just want to sit there and breathe it in.
wow I can smell the fresh starter deck smell. Those classic cards also look so nice
We need more official formats for yugioh, magic the gathering has like a dozen, I would love to play old cards like a classic duel, not watching my opponent spend 15 minutes playing cards and I die
I use a toon deck and give them a run for thier money like 3 out of 5 times but to many players who are up to date on battling. Sooner or later ill make one like thiers😂
Goat format is supported in side events called 'Time wizard tournaments'
Goat format.....
Honestly a Yu-Gi-Oh version of commander sounds dope
fr it would be sick to have them have different classes based on the different versions of the rulebooks that were included with the tins and starter decks back in the day, and limit cards to anything released from launch up til that rulebook revision, making stuff like dark hole or monster reborn tourney viable again.
I miss the good ol days where we actually explain every effect, spell cards and trap cards to our opponents because it's more fun just like the anime 😂
You can still do that… but it would take 20 years😂
Blame the time times and Konami’s text vomit
It’s not common and an extreme just normal people take about 1min 18 secs to read through Endymion
Regardless I f it being an outlier no card should take that long
If you are a returning player and have a hard time try playing a Shaddoll deck it is very intuitive you don't have to worry about most of the new mechanics and still have a powerful meta archetype
Seriously. I liked how simple it was back in the day
This is exactly how it was for me…. Especially the “draw for turn” part.
Even if you let an old player draw 10 cards for turn 1. The sad fact is the new player will probably still win every 9/10 times

@@darthjandlightj I know what yugiboomer said. And it's not. Not at all lol. It's evolved into a much more complex and much more skill based game then it ever has been. It's just people who are bad and people who are just not smart enough to adapt that complain. They don't like the complexity of new YGO. So they would prefer a game that is simple and easy and takes less skill and less thinking because it's preferable to them. Which is fine. But to say the state of the game is bad is sad. Admittedly Kashtira format is pretty dreadful atm. But modern YGO is isn't.
But the current state of YGO is actually infinitely better than old school. Old school took no skill, was slow, simple and boring. It was also very 1 dimensional. Hence why I said if he wanted to turn his brain off just go play uno.

Broooo that’s exactly like me when you haven’t played Yu Gi Oh in ages and then your opponent does all kind of stuff just to summon 2/3 monsters on his side 🤷🏻♂️💀
It used to be WORSE. For a while, a lot of decks were built around a 0 turn kill - you choose to go second, then activate the effects of cards in your hand to do a bunch of stuff to beat your opponent during _their_ turn.
And if it wasn't that, it was all Lockdown decks that would prevent the opponent from playing Spells and Traps, using Monster Effects. attacking, summoning, or literally doing anything other than forfeiting the game.

I'm guessing you're talking about Firewall format, the year and a half time period after SPYRAL format and before TOSS where various ways to FTK with Firewall dragon was the only thing anyone was doing. But it's impossible to ZTK other than opening Exodia, as almost all burn and draw cards can only be activated on your turn.

One to swap monsters with each other and other to sacrifice any vegata monsters to replace the switched monster into krillin but is faced down. Krillin's effect is when destroyed, sacrifice Goku and place Super Saiyan Goku on the field

This is not a worthy game any more. Winner or loser, it's sad game for both participants. I wonder how Konami could let it get so bad.

@@michaelq4965 depends if you spent time thinking or actually making moves. Basically every small move amimation stops the timer, so you can see a person play everything almost instantly and may have even a 20 minute turn depending on their deck and combos and your timer could be ending constantly because you pause to think your moves. As I said, toxic faulty game anymore, not worth the time at all. So many good card games out there, I've had more fun playing even the Pokemon TCG online lately which I've been dismissing my whole life than I ever did in Master Duel for chrissakes.
I also had bad barbers for a time. Bro needs to keep looking
This is so accurate! I felt this playing duel links for the first time (coming from only knowing DM rules). But I love how broken yugioh is now that I've learnt the new way of playing, it's just so much fun ♥️
Yu gu oh is a beautiful example of how letting power creep run rampant will absolutely destroy game balance.
Problem is it's been going for like 15 years. They can't stop it
They can. Simply bann all link,xyz and pendel cards. Done. Balance restored
@michaelm8529 idk about that. In some ways powercreep is inevitable as there's only so many combonation of letters you can write on cards, but at the same time magic the gathering has been going for longer and has suffered less from it so its certainly possible to mitigate.
Heck in mtg the vintage format is way more powerful than the modern format and most of that difference power level comes from older cards. Technically speaking outside of some edge cases most card types have gotten weaker in more recent sets, except creatures which were trash in the first sets XD.
@@dumatrising2421 difference being that other card games have energy at their core so there's a universal limit. Pot of greed can exist in other games because of the limitations to the systems in the game. In Yu-Gi-Oh it's broken.
I think rush duels are actually quite interesting because it makes the powerful speed of high tier Yu-Gi-Oh more universal. I'd also be interested in seeing an experimental Yu-Gi-Oh format that only allows 1 negate or removal per either players turn. Not sure what people would come up with in it's place but it'd be interesting to see
@@michaelm8529 sure but also the old cards suffered the same constraints, and were talking relative power creep not the comparative power of separate card games. We can still view cards as how good are current cards vs old card. A magic card being twice as good might mean something different than a yugioh card being twice as good, but since we're measuring the change from old to new it doesn't matter the power of magic to yugioh.
you might like that one format that plays with older cards then. I don't play much yugioh but I hear it's getting pretty popular with folks that prefer yugioh back when exodia was the only ftk you could do.
for an old school deck that hand was very good. brain control for your opponents monster and reborn your own to tribute both for dark magician.
