Trif: unbanned Electrumite: banned Only one can exist in the game at any given time, otherwise Pendulum would be Tier -7 and Trif would win every event
The Zall ! Trif would be the dude who has played pendulums since like they came out and refuses to admit they’re bad and drop the deck. Somehow he manages every format where he wasn’t banned and it’s great
Not gonna bash Trif. Guy does the scientific method to figure out what works. Haters all around you bro...not a pen player but respect for how you do your work
he doesn't work alone though, using stuff like fb groups, discord servers or whatever there is where people gather and trade ideas helps you refine yours much faster. everything else is the fruit of his efforts still.

Oh! It looks like I have a cameo in Sams vid at 0:07 ;) Really appreciated you taking time to come up, say hey, and help me out with deck deck Sam. Also major props to Triff. Actually insane that he played no electrumite against full power striker orcust and still topped. Guy just gets better and better
nah man, they're his bros and they were laughing exactly because they saw their madlad friend do such an out there thing to prove his point, and then he actually does it.
@@lswarmruler I didn't have any problem since Steven is a proper showman, I would think worse if he was not actually laughing and joking along the whole time.
@@melmoswing The way I see it is once a card is announced as banned, no one tests with it anymore, because it won't be legal anymore. The very same day she got banned I spent 5 hours testing and deckbuilding without her so to me, she's already gone ;(
This is what is called a humbling experience, if nothing else this is a show of the pure humility at show here. His deck got nerfed hard but he still keeps it together amid the laughing. Not gonna lie I felt that when they started laughing when he started explaining the combo plays. Bro that's dedication there much respect! I hope he's okay and that maybe he can find peace with himself, Pendulums and a way to move on. God bless!
@Mikale M. Agreed. I've seen young players react like this often. The problem is that a lot of teenage players try to gain social skills from playing a social game lika a TCG such as Yugioh. This isn't a problem by itself. More so, it is more beneficial to the individual as it is hurtful. The problem begins when these young players try to follow a certain elitary behavior in order to feel accepted by their social circle. So they basically do the right things for the wrong reason. Imo, this partially explains the laughing, since they don't know how to react towards someone (Trif in this case) that is confident enough to not follow the group trends and still does fine by his own decisions. This doesnt have to be the whole reason, but i believe it plays an important role from a psychological perspective. Subjectively speaking, this is the reason my playgroup is not playing on a regional level. It's a much nicer experience to test in our own group (online and offline) and play on the YCS level if we want to participate in a tournament (wether it is to do good or to just have fun).
@@lifequality I think they may have just been buds from GameNation, having a good time along with Trif, not meaning to be disrespectful or anything like that, even if it seemed annoying. After all, he topped with a self-imposed handicap! Who is laughing at that? I'm not sure (of course), but it seems likely.
Sort of best-case scenario for Konami here. They are pulling people back into the game with MR 4/20 changing the game so it is more like pre-link era. Many people still despise pendulums so they hit that. But then Triff makes it so the people who love pends don't get thrown aside. And tbh I have loved facing this versions of Pendulum online, first pend deck I have felt like they have thought or I have had to think while dueling.
The deck profile was pretty good. But the laughing was getting pretty annoying towards the end. I’m trying to listen to the profile, but they keep interrupting. Like damn bro, I know it’s Trif, but chill.
I totally disagree. The laughing was a bit annoying but it wasn't disruptive. The video shows you an authentic experience of what its like being around your buddies at Game Nation. I know in other deck profiles the GN guys interrupt alot but this time it is pretty tame.
At this point, everyone has to respect the dedication Trif has towards putting work into this deck. It not only helps himself, but it helps fans of the deck and the mechanic to push forward. I dont even play pendulums, but I madly respect the confidence and motivation that Trifs projects to other pendulum players.
We need that kind of a dude like Steven for heroes. A guy that hypes up Heroes and tests every single possibility and always Tries to get their deck tier 1
Whats super cool about this is seeing the evolution of using stuff like more Endymions and MB. The OCG actually went even more pure endymion and it tops so seeing the TCG apply that is pretty cool.
Tbh his top 5 counts as 1st place, he built his deck with new banlist limitations while dueling all the decks at full power since banlist isnt live yet..amazing job
Using the breaker magician in place of electrum is pretty big brain. Always thought that card had some potential, didnt know itd take electrum banned for it to shine lol
Trif blew my mind with that Reflection combo. I've been using it wrong all these years. I would love to see Gabe vs Trig or Trig vs Sam as a video. Pendulums for life🔥🔥🔥
Wow...actually adjusted my deck to basically this. Coincidence? I think not. Lol always loved 3 institutions. That's something ocg been doing. Plus I'm glad he decided against 3 extravagance. Great profile, dude is always entertaining
Sam bro. I like these vids with u and trif, may boy plays one of my favorite decks of all time. And im already subscribed to both channels. Love what yall do man. Keep that going. #teamsamuraix #trif
Just like life, Pendulums will find a way. All what this banlist did was Giving other decks and upcoming archtypes a better chance and Pendulums is one of them!
Yo for real though, those laughing in the back is pretty annoying and disrespectful. Props to trif for keeping his cool throughout the video and for his tops, he deserves it.
NO ELECTRUM NO PROBLEM LOL
Trif Gaming all my respect
People love giving this dude crap but his commitment to his deck and this game is honestly inspiring💪
You are one shaky dude
Which regional did you play with this deck?
trif is the best
Trif: unbanned
Electrumite: banned

@@brendanredinger8447 ty
@@brendanredinger8447 why was he banned
jij motorp supposedly he slow-played at an event, Konami found out, and banned him for 1 year
I imagine Trif to be this constantly working man whose entire mind is working on new Pendulum combos
My man is actually saying that electrumite was holding him back what a legend
The same thing happened to Dzeeff. Multifaker limited and then he tops 2 major events in a row.

Fireline - Gaming this is clutch kudos to u
@@TrifGaming Gotta love the pendulums bro, never give up. Respect!
He played two jackal if im not mistaken
Trif is the funniest yugituber of them all lmao. “Banning Electrum saved 3 minutes on the clock”
Yuginono: (Godly voice) AM I A JOKE TO YOU?!
Trif: “why are you laughing I’m right”
Triff is a legend
Quit pendulums or draw 25
Trif: draws 30
Isn't drawing a good thing in yu-gi-oh? I guess I kind of get that u tried to reverse the joke.
@@siddharthagrawal8300 is the uno meme
Kobecamilo i know
"If you can't afford it, get a job"
*doesn't own any of the cards*
Grand Chicken I own most of the cards. I can probably track down the rest of the main deck but the extra deck will be impossible🤣🤣
He’s sponsored by his card shop so it’s kinda like a job. He basically can get any card he needs at any time.
Multifaker to 1 = Dzeff tops
Servant to 1 = Trif tops
i think i can see a pattern here...
Can Konami limit Dante to see if Farfa tops?
Dvok never say those words again
Dvok and if anything it would be limit farfa
Iroo306 Triple Servant was holding him back 😂
So basically when Electrumite officially goes to 1 he'll basically win Nats and Worlds then?

Haha I noticed that too!!
This man willingly handicapped himself and still topped. While the dudes in the back can only laugh and mock, wishing they were the Pend God.
nah man, they're his bros and they were laughing exactly because they saw their madlad friend do such an out there thing to prove his point, and then he actually does it.
But their laughings are so annoying tho..
@@lswarmruler I didn't have any problem since Steven is a proper showman, I would think worse if he was not actually laughing and joking along the whole time.
That's a polite way to say, "dude, shut up".
Pendulum is dead
Trif: hold my brain
Trif and the pendulum community: “ I keep telling everyone they should move on. Some do ... But Not Us✊”
Trif has abandoned pendulums at one point. I've been playing them since I came back to the game and have not abandoned them.
@@DanPDGyt Shush.
The moment he says he doesn’t own The cards 😂
Usually they get fucked i mean sponsored by a tcg store so they give them the cards
Pendulums never die, they just go to the extra deck.
Day 2 of waiting for Konami to free Electrumite.
I'm sure Electrumite will come back but not for awhile
Omg lol
the banlist is effective 01/20/2020 so hes not banned yet and ur waiting 0 days for him to comeback becouse hes gone tomorrow

All of the laughing on the middle of his profiling I feel was a bit rude and honestly not needed like it was just too over the top.

Triff: unbanned
Electrumite: banned
balanced as all things should be
What makes a deck really strong is a pilot who loves and understands the deck very well
Fifth place after so many hits...
unreal...
And one of the only people to top higher than Trif (1st) was Jesse Kotton 😳🤯
Never seen someone this involved in yugioh history
Konami:Brings down Storm bringer on the pendulum mechanic.
Triff: You Should've aimed for the head.
Triff:Build deck

JoshuaJ for real. Ik they’re all homies but it’s kind of disrespectful to him and really annoying for the people viewing and i think Sam knows that
yeah it was so annoying, these gamenation idiots always interrupts profiles
good deck profile, trif is such a cool buddy but that idiots in the background are so annoying and if that happens agains i will deabo u sry
I agree, keep the monkeys out of the videos.

Well then, as a tribute for both triff and Payne 96, I'll create the ultimate combo deck: Volcanic Pendelums
Bruh scattershot burn AND endymion and jackal with counters is a nice otk
@@kimyona9746 Imagine new Igknights synergizing with Volcanics while Igknights undergo a playstyle-shift a la Vampires.
“That’s what pen gods do” 😂😂 Trif with the one liner’s
I am not sure if they are laughing at him or with him
i think a little bit of both
Yes
He also laughs and everything in every video.
Cant laugh at him if he won.
DeathlyBioShock true that even when Sam opened packs he is like that.
This doesn't look like a Dark Magician deck to me Sam.....
Was going to comment that too lol
The most entertaining player in the game today
I respect Triff because he proves that the deck work after the ban list, while the others laugh at him.
Can you imagine if Trif decided to put this attitude into a business start up instead of yugioh?!
Trif: Day-breaker gives you two free counters FoR fReE!
Trif topped with a disadvantage, even though everyone could still play under the current list? That"s crazy.
self imposed handicap, still tops high
He's trif the pendulum god
At this point, everyone has to respect the dedication Trif has towards putting work into this deck.
It not only helps himself, but it helps fans of the deck and the mechanic to push forward.

Watching trif handle his cards makes me uncomfy
He did say they're not his cards...gamenation gave him the entire deck
Oof
haha
RTG Czar right
That and how off putting him and everyone there are makes me uncomfy. had to mute this video just to see the profile.
It's incredible how he always top with pendulum.
I hope there will be someone who does the same thing with pk.
Day 1 of waiting new pk support
And pk stands for what?
Phantom knights?
@@javelinmaster2 yes
I like his love for pendulums
I think I've never laughed so hard watching Yu-Gi-Oh! videos
João Costa well if your laughing at him, he still hit the top 5
I'm really trying to take Trif and Pendulums seriously, but his fans are just... Mad respect to him though
Trif is the type of guy that, when shot, absorbs the bullet and spits it back and manages to hit someone
i like that this guy always sticks to one deck and doesnt just meta slave the best deck going at the time
I would love to see this kind of enthusiasm for other deck types. I wanna see a time when you can McGyver a archetype into working *dreams in Fluffal*
Whats super cool about this is seeing the evolution of using stuff like more Endymions and MB. The OCG actually went even more pure endymion and it tops so seeing the TCG apply that is pretty cool.
Trif has so much confidence that I'm getting more confidence. He is a riot.
Tbh his top 5 counts as 1st place, he built his deck with new banlist limitations while dueling all the decks at full power since banlist isnt live yet..amazing job
Tbh i kinda started hating the guys in the back, they were so disrespectful
Ikr, he got 5th place, and they didn't even top.
Theyre a bunch of assholes
Gabe was 8th but nobody cares about him. 🙃
SumDude Gabe didn’t purposely handicap himself
Appolousa Appears
Trif: you guys need this, it's mandatory. If you're poor just get a job
Also Trif: is borrowing card
***WHEEZES***
Even though he's a huge meme and all, you gotta admire his dedication on making this deck relevant at any circumstances.
Trif is insane, topping using the banlist that crippled pendulums against full force meta decks.
this guy is so awesome lmao never subscribed so quick to someone
Reflection just blows my mind. I knew it was a great card but a special summoning of two reflections ... it is just beautiful.
Using the breaker magician in place of electrum is pretty big brain. Always thought that card had some potential, didnt know itd take electrum banned for it to shine lol
This is hands down the most entertaining deck profile ever
The most hype duelist to ever grace our eyes on TeamSamuraiX1

Somehow I always end on 39 cards when watching a trif profile
It must be Upstart Goblin and Into the Void anyway
I had the same lol, then realised he plays 2x Magister of endymion after saying it's a bad card. I thought he only played one.
@@Jorge_K he played 2 but he said 1 is enough for this build. Understandable confusion though since he really stressed that point some 3 times.
He is really running 38.
