Kaiba did a missplay in his first turn, he could have attacked 3 times with Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon to go for game, but I guess he wanted a fight.
He's no fool. He knew yugi was planning to hand trap his SECOND attack. Yugi had plans for if he didn't attack or if he attacked twice, but kaiba threw him off.
@@waldoman7 there is no handtrap card in yugioh which could have punished kaiba if he attacked the second time. If yugi had something, he would have used it on first attack
Of course he would design the cathedral himself. God forbid if he hired someone for this, so that he has more time to run his company or spend time with his brother or something.
to be fair, Kaiba is a genius and if the design is simple, it probably wouldn't take longer than a day to make the design itself. It's when you start wanting stuff that basically looks like it should be impossible that things get crazy (some buildings have to have counter-weights in their center or they will topple over in any wind conditions ). One building had to pretty much replace every bolt in a skyscraper because the maker had used bolts not certified for wind conditions above X miles per hour (which could basically come every year in that area)

Kaiba is a traumatized insane genius. He also has a superiority complex which drives him even further to the edge. Atem challenged him as a leader, Yugi challenges him as a strategist, magic dangles things he feels the need to own in front of him. All three push Kaiba further into his spiral by challenging his delusion of being in control and the best. It's why we see Kaiba basically implode on himself as the series goes on and especially in DSOD.
@dracosmith7781 Kaiba wasn't sane in GX. He literally went after the Sacred Beasts for more power. Sent trading cards into space to infuse energy into them in an attempt to create new monster spirits and following Kaiba Corp into 5Ds either was partially responsible or fully responsible for the initial development of momentum technology. DSOD had Kaiba use momentum to power a recreated magical artifact to access the Egyptian afterlife to fight Atem.

Bricked is a term in the yugioh community which stands for when you have cards but none you can effectively currently utilize in your duel, so they end up just sitting there like a brick.
In modern Yugioh you often need like 1 or 2 correct cards to actually get your game going. If you don't get one of those cards, you literally cannot do shit.
Thanks for the quick reply! I played some 20 years ago in Germany and know about the pain. Did not know there was a specific term for this though. @@Barakon
This would be an effective trolling tactic of the Pharoah. He already won it all and accepted his loss from being outplayed by Yugi Moto. And if Kaiba can't get over the Pharoah this way by being literally the most important man in history that's a skill issue.

@@javaughndouglas3641 Makes sense, Yugi did beat Atem after all. Which just makes it really funny when you realise that, Kaiba created a whole d*mn portal to the afterlife, all so that he could compete for SECOND PLACE! Kaiba (if he miraculously manages to score a win): Finally! After all these years, after all the money I've spent, after all the effort I put in, I FINALLY MANAGED TO BEAT YOU PHARAOH! Atem: Indeed you did. Congratiolations Kaiba. Kaiba: And I've finally gained the title of King of Games! Atem:Yeeeeaaaah, about that... Kaiba: What? What is it? I managed to beat YOU after all, so that should obviously make me the King of Games, since nobody else managed to claim that title from you. Atem: Ok, there is no easy way for me to say this. Kaiba, the reason that I managed to move on into the afterlife, is because YUGI managed to beat ME in a duel. Kaiba:...What? Atem: Yes, it was quite an impressive duel as well. I even managed to summon all three Egyptian Gods at the same time, and yet he managed to take them all out. Kaiba: What!? Atem: Heck, halfway through the duel I just started manipulating Fate so could draw whatever card I wanted and yet he STILL managed to win. Kaiba: WHAT!? Atem: Indeed, it was a most well-deserved victory. So you see Kaiba, it is YUGI who is the current King of Games. Beating me would only make you Second-place, at best. Kaiba:......................F**********CCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK!!!!
Knowing the nonsense in Yugi's deck, there are easily a dozen different permutations of draws where his entire hand is 5-star+ monsters. Jack's Knight, Dark Magician (Of Chaos/Girl), Summoned Skull, Berfomet, Gaia the Fierce Knight, all of his ritual monsters, Buster Blader, Catapult Turtle, all three god cards, Valkyrion, The Tricky, Curse of Dragon. Not even counting Red-Eyes Black Dragon he borrowed from Joey. If anything, getting 20 brick hands in a row isn't an anomaly, it's just statistics averaging out at that point.
I like to imagine that every single time Yugi drew a perfectly playable hand, but he's so tired of Kaiba's constant obsession with reclaiming his title as the King of Games that Yugi is pretending to brick just to annoy Kaiba.
Koiba, you need to realize that this is proof none of your matches meant anything. Poor Keeba. Every time you faced Yugi, he never failed to cheat his ass off. "The heart of the cards?" You must have realized it by now Kooba. It was all a lie, a substitute for the phrase "whatever the heck card Yugi wished to draw." Yet in turn, suppose everything was random, like your cathedral. Would you truly be happy with that either, Kiaba? True goal of Yugi: Induce existential crisis in this nutter who achieved anything as long as the goal was pointless.
I just realized it is actually possible to make a deck entirely of ritual monsters and high cost tributes without anything else preventing you from being able to literally do anything on your own in a duel, albeit it could potentially work with a very specific tag duel set up
@@kindlingking control decks are not much better lol, i rather we make legitimate plays back and forth than try to solitaire my opponent. I never wanna win by solitairing my opponent, i like a good game where we both make good plays trying to outsmart eachother. Sorry im a bit of a yugi boomer in that sense. Modern players dont seem to care much for that
@@RurouniiJay i get you, but long drawn out games with lots of interaction is literally what control (in yugioh) is about. You could add in floodgates (like Stun Labrynth), but that's just normal stun with extra steps. Or you could rely on your resource engine to outgrind your opponent (like salads of old, strikers, lab, etc). If we are to share our opinions on what makes a good yugioh duel, then to me that would be forcing me out of my comfort zone to adapt on the fly with tools I have. And because of that duels between grindy control decks (preferably rogue) are my favourite part of yugioh.
Funny thing is, he used Gorz in the manga (though without its effect), so ending his turn without doing anything could actually be a valid play for him. That just adds to Kuba's torture, as Kyiba can never know if Yugi truly bricked or is planning on using Gorz, forcing Kqziba to always just try it anyway. Of course, it could also just be a brilliant plan from Yugi if he retrieved his missing Exodia pieces: just keep getting free rematches, eventually his starting hand will be all pieces of Exodia.
Obviously the Cathedral is an Allegory for his Rise to Godhood After he as stated has practically conquer all facets of Life and the Thereafter and has Brought Yugi there as His First Disciple to sing praise and prayer for the new God that is KaIba
“It’s not possible for you to brick every GAAAAMMMEE!” I just imagine Kaiba being like “the duels over, show me your fucking cards” And he has, in fact, just been bricking
It’s a cathedral bc he subconsciously wants to smooch and marry Atem, bc why the FUCK else would he follow him TO THE AFTERLIFE just to see him again?!
I love how in the 10+ times Atem mentions Karina, not once does he say his name right it's always "Koiba" "Kelba" "Kelba" "Kevin" EVERYTHING BUT KAIBA I'M WHEEZING--
To have a ritual monster in the deck without effect, with an attack equal to the White Dragon, which you can summon only if you have the ritual card in obviously a single copy, then have the necessary monsters to sacrifice on the field to have 8 stars as a tribute... No, Yugi's deck is pretty consistent.
1:11 I know that's Atem but Yugi does actually have a living mother. Outside of flashbacks, Jaden's mom was manga-exclusive though (like Joey's dad who appeared in DSOD because DSOD follows manga canon instead of anime canon) Though given how missing dads have gone in Zexal and Arc-V after 5D's where Yusei actually was an orphan, it really makes you wonder about Yugi's and Jaden's dads. Studio Bridge Yugioh doesn't count though (we did see Yuga's mom but the three Yu kids in Go Rush have no known parents, though Yuudias _technically_ has an absentee father tied to the mystery of the main plot like Yuya and Yuma).
Guess while in a house of god, Atem’s bullshit luck gets reversed so badly that he pulls random shitty cards from other card games instead of anything decent.
Given that Christianity supplanted Egyptian mythology in Egypt as well as the fact that it was a significant factor in preserving knowledge and funding the sciences for centuries after it did so (contrary to the idiotic "Christian Dark Ages" meme), a cathedral is actually a pretty fitting place for Kaiba to take the title of King of Games from Yugi.
I love this take on Atem, being King of Games for so long that he's full of himself. Even when he loses, he still wins by torturing poor Kibay. Atem now has an ego that can one up Kuribah!
I'm not a fan of parodies in general, but it seems like everything you make is gold. As a decrepit OG YGO fan this one hit harder than I thought anything ever would.
See kaiba, he's a pharo. So the judao-Christian cathedral counters Egyptian mythology. Mythology that relies on faith. What is "the heart of the cards"? Faith. You attacked his faith AND life points. You absolute monster.
It's funnier when you realise he could make his deck brick every game even if he had the best possible deck in existence
In short, the most genuine 'I let you win' in existence.

Thanks for the quick reply! I played some 20 years ago in Germany and know about the pain. Did not know there was a specific term for this though. @@Barakon
What these nerds are saying in difficult terms: Bricked means you draw a card you can't rly use.
This would be an effective trolling tactic of the Pharoah. He already won it all and accepted his loss from being outplayed by Yugi Moto. And if Kaiba can't get over the Pharoah this way by being literally the most important man in history that's a skill issue.
Yeah, and Kaiba technically CAN'T get the title from Atem either. Yugi holds it. So Kaiba gets nothing, really.
@@LordTyph And as shown in the Dark Side of Dimensions, it takes a whole movie and world altering event for Kaiba to acknowledge Yugi as a person and a Duelist, rather than just a meat puppet for Atem to pilot.
@@sugoiuseismoeabuse4058 It's like Voldermort trying to get the Elder Wand but worse; not only going after the wrong target but the target he IS aiming for is better than him.
@@LordTyphAnd he couldn't beat Yugi either. That's the even sadder part. Spends the whole movie crying about how the Pharaoh is superior, yet loses to Yugi anyway.
@@javaughndouglas3641 Makes sense, Yugi did beat Atem after all. Which just makes it really funny when you realise that, Kaiba created a whole d*mn portal to the afterlife, all so that he could compete for SECOND PLACE!
Kaiba (if he miraculously manages to score a win): Finally! After all these years, after all the money I've spent, after all the effort I put in, I FINALLY MANAGED TO BEAT YOU PHARAOH!
Atem: Indeed you did. Congratiolations Kaiba.
Kaiba: And I've finally gained the title of King of Games!
Atem:Yeeeeaaaah, about that...
Kaiba: What? What is it? I managed to beat YOU after all, so that should obviously make me the King of Games, since nobody else managed to claim that title from you.
Atem: Ok, there is no easy way for me to say this. Kaiba, the reason that I managed to move on into the afterlife, is because YUGI managed to beat ME in a duel.
Kaiba:...What?
Atem: Yes, it was quite an impressive duel as well. I even managed to summon all three Egyptian Gods at the same time, and yet he managed to take them all out.
Kaiba: What!?
Atem: Heck, halfway through the duel I just started manipulating Fate so could draw whatever card I wanted and yet he STILL managed to win.
Kaiba: WHAT!?
Atem: Indeed, it was a most well-deserved victory. So you see Kaiba, it is YUGI who is the current King of Games. Beating me would only make you Second-place, at best.
Kaiba:......................F**********CCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK!!!!
Knowing the nonsense in Yugi's deck, there are easily a dozen different permutations of draws where his entire hand is 5-star+ monsters. Jack's Knight, Dark Magician (Of Chaos/Girl), Summoned Skull, Berfomet, Gaia the Fierce Knight, all of his ritual monsters, Buster Blader, Catapult Turtle, all three god cards, Valkyrion, The Tricky, Curse of Dragon. Not even counting Red-Eyes Black Dragon he borrowed from Joey. If anything, getting 20 brick hands in a row isn't an anomaly, it's just statistics averaging out at that point.
You can at least Special Summon The Tricky.
Funnily enough, when little/true Yugi builds decks with shit like Silent Magician and Marshmallon, it's unironically better
I like to imagine that every single time Yugi drew a perfectly playable hand, but he's so tired of Kaiba's constant obsession with reclaiming his title as the King of Games that Yugi is pretending to brick just to annoy Kaiba.
Koiba, you need to realize that this is proof none of your matches meant anything. Poor Keeba. Every time you faced Yugi, he never failed to cheat his ass off. "The heart of the cards?" You must have realized it by now Kooba. It was all a lie, a substitute for the phrase "whatever the heck card Yugi wished to draw." Yet in turn, suppose everything was random, like your cathedral. Would you truly be happy with that either, Kiaba?
True goal of Yugi: Induce existential crisis in this nutter who achieved anything as long as the goal was pointless.
I love the sass with the different misspellings of Kielbasa's name.
It kinda makes sense the cathedral thingy; after doing all of that, he might as well be considered a God to be venerated
The best part, he’s arguing with a hologram he himself made 😂
The way he asks him if he bricked killed me
I activate my trap card: engagement ring!
I just realized it is actually possible to make a deck entirely of ritual monsters and high cost tributes without anything else preventing you from being able to literally do anything on your own in a duel, albeit it could potentially work with a very specific tag duel set up
Kaiba’s name changing so much had me rolling XD
"I cant lord my victory over you if you cant even fight back"
Floodgate stun and control deck players: *why not, im clearly better*
Don't lump control decks with stun
@@kindlingking control decks are not much better lol, i rather we make legitimate plays back and forth than try to solitaire my opponent. I never wanna win by solitairing my opponent, i like a good game where we both make good plays trying to outsmart eachother. Sorry im a bit of a yugi boomer in that sense. Modern players dont seem to care much for that
@@RurouniiJay i get you, but long drawn out games with lots of interaction is literally what control (in yugioh) is about. You could add in floodgates (like Stun Labrynth), but that's just normal stun with extra steps. Or you could rely on your resource engine to outgrind your opponent (like salads of old, strikers, lab, etc).
If we are to share our opinions on what makes a good yugioh duel, then to me that would be forcing me out of my comfort zone to adapt on the fly with tools I have. And because of that duels between grindy control decks (preferably rogue) are my favourite part of yugioh.
Can confirm, am a cathedral
Can cathedral, am a confirm.
This is so satisfying . Like watching Charlie Brown kicking that football .
Yugi calling Kaiba a hillbilly is something I never though I'd hear.
Funny thing is, he used Gorz in the manga (though without its effect), so ending his turn without doing anything could actually be a valid play for him. That just adds to Kuba's torture, as Kyiba can never know if Yugi truly bricked or is planning on using Gorz, forcing Kqziba to always just try it anyway.
Of course, it could also just be a brilliant plan from Yugi if he retrieved his missing Exodia pieces: just keep getting free rematches, eventually his starting hand will be all pieces of Exodia.
Kaiba built the cathedral so he would have god and anime on his side
I presum this was one of kaibas earlier attempts at his Atem simulator von dsod
"A machine to travel to the Afterlife"
-Isn't that just a gun?
1:10 💀. Funny asf from the beginning to the end tbh
Ok ok atem owned him bit at least kaiba is not DEAD so he cant get that ratio'd
Obviously the Cathedral is an Allegory for his Rise to Godhood
After he as stated has practically conquer all facets of Life and the Thereafter
and has Brought Yugi there as His First Disciple
to sing praise and prayer for the new God that is KaIba
I love how his pronunciation of Kaiba changes every time.
Yugi just keeps bricking his own hand just to deny Kiba the satisfaction of a proper victory.
He got the npc responses once he started bricking
“It’s not possible for you to brick every GAAAAMMMEE!”
I just imagine Kaiba being like “the duels over, show me your fucking cards”
And he has, in fact, just been bricking
Your faith in your friends* - I don't have any friends Yugi
Atem bricked because 50-80% of his cards are officially banned anyways.
Yugi definitely won the psychological game
I love the use of the various ways to mispronounce Kaiba XD
I think Yugi kept choosing to act like he was bricking, so Kaiba would pnly ever win in this Cathedral, which he has extensively already mocked.
Looking back that cathedral now reminded me about mausoleum of white a little....
It’s a cathedral bc he subconsciously wants to smooch and marry Atem, bc why the FUCK else would he follow him TO THE AFTERLIFE just to see him again?!
I love how in the 10+ times Atem mentions Karina, not once does he say his name right it's always "Koiba" "Kelba" "Kelba" "Kevin" EVERYTHING BUT KAIBA I'M WHEEZING--
*Kaiba lmao even I messed up his name 🥲
1:54 "You believe in your god and I'll believe in mine."
Kaiba wanted to symbolically marry Yugi so that in a roundabout way he could brag that he made him his b!"$#". That's why he made a cathedral.
Yugi's best example of winning by losing.
I knew that single frame would reference the marty bags song
"I DON'T F***ing Believe in the Heart of the Cards!!!! GRAAHHH!!!" D:< -Koiba
I thought i was insane for thinking he said Hus name differently every time
This made me laugh so freaking hard that I actually hurt myself, thank you very much for this!
The parents bit got me 😂
To have a ritual monster in the deck without effect, with an attack equal to the White Dragon, which you can summon only if you have the ritual card in obviously a single copy, then have the necessary monsters to sacrifice on the field to have 8 stars as a tribute... No, Yugi's deck is pretty consistent.
1:11 I know that's Atem but Yugi does actually have a living mother. Outside of flashbacks, Jaden's mom was manga-exclusive though (like Joey's dad who appeared in DSOD because DSOD follows manga canon instead of anime canon) Though given how missing dads have gone in Zexal and Arc-V after 5D's where Yusei actually was an orphan, it really makes you wonder about Yugi's and Jaden's dads. Studio Bridge Yugioh doesn't count though (we did see Yuga's mom but the three Yu kids in Go Rush have no known parents, though Yuudias _technically_ has an absentee father tied to the mystery of the main plot like Yuya and Yuma).
4 Exodia Cards and a Spell.... EVERY FUCKING TIME!!!
Guess while in a house of god, Atem’s bullshit luck gets reversed so badly that he pulls random shitty cards from other card games instead of anything decent.
Given that Christianity supplanted Egyptian mythology in Egypt as well as the fact that it was a significant factor in preserving knowledge and funding the sciences for centuries after it did so (contrary to the idiotic "Christian Dark Ages" meme), a cathedral is actually a pretty fitting place for Kaiba to take the title of King of Games from Yugi.
Funny thing is, you can actually do this every game. Don't even need to brick.
King of Trolls Yugi
This was fucking GOLD I love it
I mean, it's alot of effort to go to make a Cathedral, Yugi should be flattered, even if a Pyramid might have been more thematically fitting.
Kaiba could've claimed the cathedral is because he's now equal to god since he's mastered the power to enter and leave the afterlife.
How am I only finding this now this is brilliant 🎉
Kaiba koiba keeba kelba 😂
Yugi sounds like Xavier: renegade angel at points. :D
The dramatic nooooooo gets me everytime 😂
I love this take on Atem, being King of Games for so long that he's full of himself.
Even when he loses, he still wins by torturing poor Kibay. Atem now has an ego that can one up Kuribah!
Lol, reminds me a lot of solid jj's paradoies
I'm not a fan of parodies in general, but it seems like everything you make is gold. As a decrepit OG YGO fan this one hit harder than I thought anything ever would.
ok who summoned cassidy from fnaf to trap kaiba in his own personal hell
I love troll Yugi
The pronunciation of Kaiba’s name changing every sentence was taking me out bro 😂
"why did you build a cathedral" listen kaibas feelings for the pharoh are beyond obsession, this was a marriage proposal
This video has 156k likes but only 1.6k views. We need Keeba to build a new platform
Joey: Why does this feel like a spiritual successor to some sort of shitty abridged series.
Tristan: Little Kuriboh?
Lol I laughed at the part when Yugi pronounced Seto Kaiba's name like that. It sounded so funny.
See kaiba, he's a pharo. So the judao-Christian cathedral counters Egyptian mythology. Mythology that relies on faith.
What is "the heart of the cards"? Faith. You attacked his faith AND life points.
You absolute monster.
Yugi was playing an entirely different game.
Kaiba: YUGI STOP PLAYING THE ANCIENT EGYPTIAN CARD NOT EVERYTHING IS AN ANCIENT CONSPIRACY.
Yugi: But that guy looks like you...
Then Kaiba wakes up only realizing it was just another simulation
3:22 the AI got the tone of voice perfect for him
Yugi: You built a mach8ne to travel to the afterlife?
Me: So does he still believe you only have one life?
