    To clarify the ruling at the end of game 1:
    - Yes, you can pass priority during a given phase when you have a mandatory effect you most resolve/apply in that phase. If you do this, the opponent can make an action or pass back. If they make an action, you procced with proper chain rules (or not if it's an action that doesn't start a chain) and then you return. If they pass back, NOW the turn player MUST perform an action (it can be the mandatory one or another appropriate action they can take here). This repeats until both players pass back to each other and there are NO mandatory actions left to be performed by either player that phase. So yes, gage did not need to immediately activate the effect of Lava Golem in the Standby Phase here.
    - If a victory condition is met while a chain link is resolving, it is not applied until that chain link has finished resolving. NOT the ENTIRE chain, just the chain LINK.

    Reminder that OCG doesn't have these price issues, this is purely a TCG issue. TCG Konami since 2020 has worsened core sets by rarity bumping several cards and archetypes to push competitive and collectors to buy up even more boxes and cases to get those exclusive cards. Imagine if current TCG Konami was in charge of printing the Lord of Tachyon Galaxy set, they would have printed the Dragon Rulers as ultra and secret rares because the demand on the competitive end would have been so great but the value ofbthe cards would have priced out more casual players more than Dracosac

      Thats whats killing the game. People who play casually arent gonna spend top dollar just to play the best deck of the format for 2 months, theyll just play master duel or one of the free simulators. The people who go to events to actually try and be competitive these days are either content creators trying to make a little money for their hobby or have tons of free time and money to be able to afford travel & deck building. It feels like konami is purposefully trying to push away the TCG audience so they can focus on their digital titles now. I mean they had a whole board meeting where investors expressed concerns about the state of the TCG and how the game isnt making enough money, yet they seem not at all interested in changing their game plan or strategy each set is exactly the same as the last despite the growing concerns. Konami needs to give decks more longevity or make them cheaper overall. Maybe make some strategies that are capable of winning without having 2 grand worth of staple cards to back you up.

      @@tmoney1487 Problem isn't longevity, it's the price of said cards and how obtainable they are. AGOV is a good set in terms of card design and archetypes, it's ruined by TCG Konami bumping the rarity of 20 or so cards through the flimsy justification that there isn't a rare print in core sets. TCG Konami is trying to make money by making sets more top heavy, which forces players to buy multiple boxes to get a lot of the more valuable cards in a set. This makes core sets less appealing to casual players who are severely unlikely to pull anything of value as the important cards are pulled up to ultra and secret rare. OCG AGOV has most of the Horus and Snake Eye archetypes as commons and rares with a couple super and ultra rares (secret rares in OCG are just higher rarity variants of super and ultra rare cards) so you could get a majority of the archetypes in a single box, only needing super and ultra rares. S:P Little Knight is a super rare in the OCG, which means you have a little over 50% chance to pull one from a box, TCG they bumped her to exclusively secret rare which puts her in about 1 out of 4 boxes.

    I think this is especially egregious because we're spending this money on damn cardboard and the OCG has a much better system that prevents this snowballing.
    It's not just about being able to afford it; as someone heavily into fashion, especially Belgian and Japanese deconstructvism and with a ton of disposable income, it was still very hard to justify buying a shiny piece of paper that says Baronne for the same price I could get a handmade, vintage, historically iconic Raf Simons pullover that will stay with me till the day I die.

    Whenever I see TCG players malding about price I just got reminded how lucky I am to live in an OCG region. Rescue-ACE core is something like $45 and 3 Diabellestarr + 2 SP would set you back at most $70. Maxx C + Ash + Imperm Playset is another $60 or so. Extra deck staples (Knightmares, IP, Accesscode, etc) would probably only set you back at most $50. It's kind of wild that a tournament ready top meta deck would probably only set people back by ~$200 here if you go for minimum rarity while the same list would set TCG players almost 10 times the amount. y'all are getting ripped off man

    Is anyone surprised how expensive rescue ace is though? It was good at release then just kept getting better and better. Now since the deck is so new there are no reprints or anything to get for cheaper. It’s like trying to play with prize cards back in the day like Cyber Stein and Giant Hand. Let’s not forget Tear was pretty damn expensive too. By no means am I saying this is okay, but supply and demand is a bitch when everyone wants the new cards.

      @@557deadpool What you're saying makes no sense. Complaining about people buying expensive cards to play Yugioh is like complaining that Olympic runners use expensive running shoes. "These athletes only win because they have the best shoes. I run on stilts because its more fun and its what I enjoy. Usain Bolt wouldn't be able to beat me if he was on stilts, he's only winning because he's using proper running shoes"
      NO SHIT, people will use the best equipment to win. Usain bolt runs in shoes, not on stilts, even though its less "fun". Lewis Hamilton drives a F1 car, not a golf cart, because he wants to win. Tiger woods used expensive golf clubs, rather than trying to hit the ball with a 2x4. Are they a "crutch"? Using a 2x4 would be more of a "challenge" and more "creative".
      Casual players, in fact, are the ones who use cards as a crutch. If you bring dark magician to a tournament, then when you lose, you have an easy excuse. "I lost because i wasn't playing the best deck".
      But the reason they don't use the best deck is because if they brought the best deck to a tournament, they'd still lose. And they'd have no excuse for it, and would actually have to do some introspection that maybe they aren't the great player they thought they were. Most can't bear that possibility, so they bring their garbage tier-7 deck as a handy excuse for when they lose.
