Yu-Gi-Oh Trading Card Game Online Yugitube Anime Episode Discussion Deck Duel Booster Pack Opening GX 5D's Zexal Arc V
The Yu-Gi-Oh Trading Card Game was created by Kazuki Takahashi, and is the property of Konami Corporation.
"It's a bunch of grown-ass men, trapped in a big-ass box, with no air conditioning, playing cardboard, and hating eachother"
'Nuff said.
Gianor SK
and the loser would be banished to the shadow realm
Gianor SK you mean the puple realm
Potato Peeler
damn 4Kids shitty dub ruining good anime
rob140892 no it was a refrence to yugioh the abridged series :D but yeah damn 4kids and their invisible guns
You just described Mtg players not YGO lol
the thing that bothers me is that society labels card games like yugioh as "for kids", or if you are an adult who plays it then you are considered nerdy or immature, meanwhile there are grown ass adults who play poker and other card games that involve gambling recreationally/professionally and nobody bats an eye at that, both are incredibly complex and require strategy, the only difference is that yugioh has anime style artwork on each card, people see that artwork and immediately they register it as being "for children"
imbatman yeah I play poker for a living and yugioh recreationally and it's very similar! Except I haven't seen people kicked out of a card shop having bet the shirt off their back..
Yeah and I dont understand why the anime design is considered childish because nobody cares about artists that draw anime
I feel like a lot of people's logic is basically [animation = for kids]. (Even though by that "logic," shows like South park, Family Guy, etc. are kid's shows because they are cartoons/animated.)
A kid got his Beelze ripped up at the card shop I go to and was crying... so I gave him mine. Then a few days later I pulled an Alucard from the Mega Tin, so I guess it came back around.
You are a good person my friend!
Sijm Tromm Well it was mainly because I could relate from my playground days. Some bully ripped up my Gaia the Dragon Champion(that poor secret rare). So I just felt bad.
Good man.
You're the real MVP
The Plus-Minus Complex That's great of you!
Ironically, the kids at my locals are the ones who swear me out...
Lambert lol that is sad
When I was a kid, I went to a tournament, and I lost cause a yata garasu wouldn't let me draw cards!.... I was scarred for life!
Koric TheGreat Yata-Lock flashbacks xD
Surprisingly enough, the fact that I'm only 17 and make top 8 alot in my locals tourneys, actually makes me pretty popular with those younger than me and those that are atleast twice my age. A little compassion never went too far, well that and, it's a fantastic shop.
Gianor SK I'm the same age and play competitively as well. That's really good bro! Hope we can one day see you win YCS! :)
I usually just think of ygotas when someone says a children's card game xD
vgfian omg me to
Sensei Saitama!
vgfian I usually just think of DBZA when someone says abridged xD
Kids aren't gonna know what the damage step is, or the difference between inherent summons and summons that start a chain.
Kid are going to let their kid opponents negate Call of the Haunted with Thunder King and that makes me sad.
You're a rarity.
DT
P-Duck I'm 11 and I know how those work
P-Duck I knew what it was when I was 6. I didint understand things like Tribute and Fusion, but I learned by the time I was 6. But I've always hit top of my pieers, so I think it's an ok aception.
fr dont take a kids cards unless you looking to catch these hands
I hear about all these bad stories in the YGO community but at my locals (the only events I've been to) everyone is really nice.
+Cool
it seems you've found the only good locals.
Na my card shops small yet a lot of people are their and not assholes
+Cool I am glad your locals has nice players.. Mine has a lot of assholes in it who are full of themselves.
+Cool Same here. I think that part of it might be the cultural differences. Certain behaviours are considered more or less taboo depending on the country, or even state for that matter.
Be thankful that you have locals, we in Latvia do not even have them. All we have is one little shop and couple dozen players scattered across the country. And it really sucks that biggest (unofficial) tournament that we can organize has like 6 people......... And you can almost always predict the winner before tournament even starts, because everyone knows everyones deck and its terribly unbalanced because most of us play for fun and have funky old ass archtype decks. I am very competitive person and it really feels bad when I have to bench my monarch deck for some old deck, because everyone elses decks just cant compete with meta. Basically be grateful for that you have regionals even if they are filled with assholes.
I don't know what you guys are talking about. Blue-Eyes is totally worth a Dracossack.
I'm kinda surprised to hear these things about people in card shops. My locals is really nice and friendly and of course the occasional salt but it's just joking around. I am from Canada so I've never been to an American card shop.
In my opinion the shop reflects its surroundings.
George Roffie American shops can be much less inviting.
Same here and I live in America
A guy was playing me at locals and in round 2 a kid stopped him asking for any selling cards he had. He spent a good 15 minutes going back and forth about how much his cards were. I then interrupted it saying that "its a freaking card game not a flea market!!" Sometimes, when people just don't stop going through every card that the other has for trade, it just peeves me off!
I certainly agree with this discussion topic. It really is a shame that most of these problems that make Yu-Gi-Oh unfriendly are from the community/ card shop atmosphere, but as someone who has spent some time at those places I can certainly agree that they hold true, which probably confirms it across the board. I also think the game as it is today is incredibly complex for a young child to understand, just so much you need to know and study to keep at it, makes it seems like it is more trouble than it is worth (this can apply to any newer potential player as well)
I mean I started playing Yugioh at around eight or nine (over 10 years ago) and had a good experience with it but mostly cause I was not exposed to the shop/ large community environment (I mean i can hardly deal with it today) and the game was simpler and easier to learn.
yeah i didn't have card shops growing up and i really only played with my bro or at school (rarely).My first time at a shop was just last year I don't know why I was expecting to see children. Shops have a terrible connotation as they seem like a dead end for alot of people in their 20s-40s.
Im 13 years old i play yu gi oh, i go locals every weekend, i use my money to buy cards.In my country a bosster pack its 10 dolars, i think the same thing .
it can be a children game. THE PROBLEM ITS THE COMUNITY of yugioh!
I'm 11 but atleast I know how to organize a deck and I use sleeves
BREAKTHROUGH GAMING Proud of you.
Right people think that just cause we young we don’t no shit,bitch I won a local at 11 and had top 20 in a regional
"Guilty of cursing, racial slurs, sexist jokes, etc. But I don't do it around kids." The real hero here
This wasn't a huge issue back then compared to now. I mean...like yugioh became unfriendly because it's a salty ass game now and not only that it's becoming even more expensive. When I go to locals at times I get bashed on for playing deck I wanna play. The whole it's not good you shouldn't play it time of thing. I barely go now because they will say hey let me help you build a deck that's playable. I don't like hearing that. If you ever played Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3...that's exactly what yugioh is like today.
It’s basically more complex for kids but kids can still play it but your just saying tournaments and card shops aren’t for kids
No matter how you look at this matter, Yu-Gi-Oh! is a children's card game, but as Joey YGOTAS said: "Only GROWN-UPS are allowed to play children's card game"
If you can find a child 10 or less years old who can win and play the current game perfectly, I will applaude you.
+Ben Džeymar FC find me a someone who is under 12 who can synchro xyz use advanced fusion or even God forbid use the simple/broken method known as pendulum back at the start where the most complex was stuff like poly into blue eyes ultimate or tribute summoning kids could easily learn it but now with all of the interactions timings and rulings it is VERY tricky to learn period with all the new mechanics let alone without some assistance such as playing on devpro
+DagasNeedle I'm 11 and I run mermail atlanteans.
Stuart Porter im 11 and run junk dopple its fun and trish is my favorite synchro what you like about your deck
and thats at school but locals i run settlarknights but they are true some of them stink
I swear I duel better high
johnnyb 1 i duel better on no sleep i sware went to a regional after work got top 28 with my E Heros/Neo Spacian i worked nights so thats 19 hours with out sleep i was dead when i got back home luckily i was off that day
Blackout Wrestling I activated my trap card, 420. It allows me to become a better player for the remaining duel
bro the feels🔥😂
DigitalPorygon2 I’m the same way in life. When I’m exhausted, I don’t have the time nor the mental capacity to be nervous and overthink things lol.
Zachary Fluke that literally don’t have shit to do with it I’m not a weak minded bitch who can’t handle weed
You weren't even straightening your arm out on them curls lol you got nothing from that.
I just, as in repressed this memory, remembered that one of my first locals in Middle School, I had a dude steal my LOB Swords of Revealing Light while looking through my deck.
I had to wait a week to confront him Cuz by the time I noticed he'd bounced and it was one of the most uncomfortable experiences I've ever dealt with. He gave it back when I confronted him but still. Older dude, knew more. Same shit when I got asked to play for a card. Got OTK'd with a Jinzo back in the day. Took my card, was a kid. Fuckin gross.
It's definitely not a kid's game.
that's why comp ygo is not for kids. My friends and I are in high school, and of the ones in my grade, they went to one locals. I almost went to one, and that area was really shady, so we decided not to go. We are happy just dueling in our school, and our image is unaffected by it.
I live in America, but the locals I go to have good people who (usually) play the game for fun. I've built up tournament winning decks from trading with the guys down there and Its truly great to meet people at tournaments that really care about the game.
I agree that this really isn't a children's card game. But smoking, swearing, inappropriate jokes, it costs money, getting ripped off, hygiene, anger, and theft are all things that kids experience in everyday life anyways.
That said most of what you talked about was about the community not the game itself. I think of it like chess or any other competitive game really it can be enjoyed by everyone, but I think adults will have an easier time understanding it
People smoke outside of Wal-Mart. People smoke outside of restaurants. People smoke outside of sporting events. Moral of the story is by these guys logic you shouldn't take kids anywhere because they might see someone smoking. Well I already discredited you just off your first argument. Good try though.
Its not... in all "children" focused games the competitive high value markets are filled with 16+ people card games esports doesnt matter there is no place for children
I did a little experiment by teaching my 5 years old little brother how to play yugioh and here's what happened: he knows how to normal summon and tribute summon but he doesn't know how to synchro xyz pendulum or even link but he knows how to ritual and fusion but sometimes he kind of forgets how to play the game. in the middle of the game he instantly forgets how to tribute ritual and fusion. He knows how spells and traps cards works and what their purposes are (as well as monster card effects). when he activates a spell card or trap card he gives it to me to read the card description and if it's playable I'll tell him that he can activate it. If its not playable I'll tell him to activate the card when I move to my standby phase battle phase main phase 1/2 end phase do something like this and stuff blah blah blah.
he doesn't know how the turn structures works (except the draw phase)
But at least he knows how half of the game works.
It's actually a miracle believe it or not.
Hee five. Check in when he's 8.
I am a kid. I love yugioh and I play competitively in card shops. If you enjoy it then it’s anyone’s game. Like if you agree. 🔥⚡️🌈💯👍
At my local card shop, everyone who plays there gets along well. Whenever we get a kid, or someone new in general, in the shop, we are friendly towards them. We had one guy who got back into the game and brings his kid, and everyone there (including myself) helped both of them. We've definitely had some salt, but no one has ever gotten extremely mad or anything like that. I wish more card shops could be like the one i go to tho. So many people got mad at a card shop I visited on a road trip and it was quite daunting.
Starscream91 ok? And? Does it look like i care what you think? I'm not going to waste my time with another person thinking they're the coolest person ever. I just made a simple statement about the shop i go to, and this is what happens? Your insults are unoriginal just like your username aren't they? Plus, that comment was made a month ago, and it has nothing to do with you. Also, you're calling me scum? That's not the worst thing I've been called tbh
I think it's so cool that you both are just filming so casually
I know im a little late to the party, but you guys are completely right on basically all these points. Kids are impressionable and they need proper guidance so setting an example is key.
He's doing weights in the middle of a video lol anyways nice topic for today's video
you guys are 100% right
The way Konami does it is they get the children hooked on the TV show with all the over-the-top characters, the bright colors, and the cool monsters. Then they keep them by encouraging them to learn the rules and get better by buying the better cards. This eventually turns into a never ending rat race to be the best, especially since most young duelists are boys, which are competitive and optimistic. Eventually, they become adults veteran duelists, full-grown sugarcane stalks whose big-money crop is harvested every format. They tend to stay with the game out of a combination of a sense of nostalgia and the sad fact that Yu-Gi-Oh is one of the few things they are really good at it. Yu-Gi-Oh is definitely not a children's card game. But the children are the seed that is fertilized and eventually grows into a zero-agency money tree. I still play, and I love it. But parents, please just have your kid go out for sports or something. It's not worth it.
+bigjonfaulkner they got me as a kid lol i started playing watching yugioh when i was 5-6
bigjonfaulkner 15 and want to get back into it. i do high school sports and will suffer hell in basketball co ditioning but.... ima see if i can also do yugioh on the side.
the main reason i thought that yu-gh-oh was not for kids was the fact there are so many card that are confusing as fuck. I'm still confused on 50% or more on most cards
4:39 Dat product placement though
We aren't paid or endorsed by them! ...probably.
***** lol
Great video as always APS! Been slowly getting back into the game and your channel has helped as much as a few others. Even though it's been since Crimson Crisis since I've attended a locals, I gotta say this video is the damn truth. We never had kids here and we joked about it before that there were "No Kids Allowed" and dammit it was better that way I must say, unfortunately. Looks like even though the game itself has improved, the attitude? Nah.
Glad the videos have been a help! And yeah... sometimes it really feels like the player base just needs to be outright segregated, unfortunately.
***** Sad but true. I think they tried to do that with the Pegasus League, but I think that caught on about as well as Venom Decks
***** Dragon Duels was a good idea, too, but... eh, it's only at bigger events.
***** That's true. Maybe if they tried a similar thing for smaller areas there could be something? The world may never know haha
I think it more like a teenagers card game to some degree depending who you are.
Yeah, that sounds about right.
I'm eleven and I play ritual beasts.
Good, that means you have some skill in the game.
well I'm 14 and I just got back into Yu-Gi-Oh after watching some videos. and this stuff is all true and likes kids under the age of 12 probably shouldn't be going to these places for these main reasons. Also the best way not to get your stuff stolen is......keep it on you.😁😁
i agree but would you say a 12 or 13 year old kid "too young" for any card shop (yugioh etc.) or local tournaments?
I mean... it's kinda obvious that it's not for kids. How can a kid play a card game on a motorcycle??
I do not care what you think I will keep playing Yu-Gi-Oh
Great discussion guys
I feel like all the tryhard competitive players started this whole 'yugioh is not a children's card game' thing.People just use it as an excuse of why they are taking this game so seriously.And they shouldn't be.
VixXstazosJOB good point and also the pictures on the cards dont look childish unless you get to the toon cards. but the other cards look very feirsome so theres that too. and the game is extremely complex and it seems like its too complex for kids. I know i didnt understand it at all when I was a kid. i wasnt even able to play it because of how complex it was and sometimes its still a tiny bit confusing.
It is really not a children's card game and I notice at tournaments lots of people get salty and are swearing a ton, so these little kids hear and go ask their parents what they mean, then they leave and never come back if things in yugioh weren't so negative, we wouldn't be losing all these future players
it sounds like you got a problem with yugioh card shops not kids playing yugioh.
What would you consider the right age
Since this video is a bit old, I've changed my stance. I think there's not really a right or wrong age. It's really more an issue of card shop culture.
Zesty Rebel i mean, I'm 16 and started playing at local card shops and stuff when i was 13/14. I think anyone under 13/14 should have a sibling, parent, or someone of that nature with them.
StickFigureJosh lol I'm 15 and I was scared as shit going into a card shop without anyone and then was embarrassed about what the cashier might think if I bought like 4 packs( but now a days I don't care as much)
12+ in my opinion
@@TeamAPS Definitely true. I plan to go to my first locals soon using Gimmick Puppets.
I sorta disagree because all ages play Yugioh and all ages go to tournaments also at my locals none of this happen and every is really nice
I got ripped of a few years back. Little did anyone know that that 1 card I traded for would become my first deck that wasn't just random cards
This video was uploaded on my birthday 3 years ago. Though I didn't know this channel existed back then.
Coming from my own personal experience I I can't fully agree with them because the two card shops I go to have positive atmospheres the closest thing we get to anyone having negative reactions to anything is in the far back corner where people are playing Warhammer 40K and even then it turns into laughter and good spirit
Honestly, I don't see the value in sheltering kids as much as we do, so while I think it's important to show them the real world, but yeah, I wouldn't want to bring a kid to a locals unless they show some serious aptitude and learning ability in it and they're serious about wanting to play
I'm not even a teen and I win tournaments already. I have so many friends at Locals and regionals
I agree, it is just card game in the end and it is fun....just like Board Games and even normal playing cards like Solitaire and Black Jack any age group can play.....their are adults out their who play Pokemon Games and so on...as long as it makes you happy then who cares what you like as long as your staying out of trouble....
Most of these were problems with the fanbase and not the game itself. The PLAYERS smoke, THEY are setting a bad example. The PLAYERS curse, THEY are setting a bad example. The PLAYERS trade money for cards and make tricky deals with uninformed people. The PLAYERS have bad hygiene, THEY are setting a bad example, and are also generally stinking up the place. The PLAYERS are acting salty, THEY are setting a bad example. I could go on and on... It's like saying that children shouldn't play SM4SH because there are tiers.
Honestly, if a kid is just starting out yu gi oh, just tell them to get a structure deck at Target.
That's where I got my first deck from.
Sit down and play with your friends who also got their decks from target.
Stop I'm freaking 16 and I started dueling in my freshman year. Point is anyone can play it who are you guys to say who can and can't play ygo tcg
Yugioh is for all ages,kids go to kid tournaments,adults go to adult tournaments
+LeeroyGames our youngest duelist at my locals is 10
I'm 12 and I'm Pro at this game. I finally learned Pendulum summoning, so now, if your 12 and know how to play, then your good.
I gotta thank you guys I always wanted to get into Yugioh but was to turned off by how much there was going on, thanks to your videos I am braving the waters and going in you guys make great videos you just brought a new member to the scene thank you 👍🏻
One of my local shops forbids the language when children are in the shop. It makes it enjoyable for everyone. I like seeing the younger generation learning any card game but this one is def not for kids lol
today i was in a card shop parents come in with kids looking at structure decks clerk comes just says don't take that it is useless to them i walk by say master of pendulum is about the strongest now
they took synchron extreme
I agree. the game is for all ages, but these are examples of why younger players shouldn't be around more older players. not why it isn't a children's game.
I remember my first locals where there was a kid who ran a great blue eyes deck. he had some of his cards stolen. Unfortunately I turned into bystander which I'm ashamed of. Also, I ran a gem-knight deck and beat dragon rulers. The guy was extremely mad and said my deck was for chumps. Then he proceeded to talk crap behind my back. Yeah I agree yugioh is a game like any other game with a lot of negativity. Though to some degree maybe kids should learn that life is rough sometimes. However we shouldn't be the ones teaching them the hard way that life is rough.
we have to remember at its core this game is for kids. As adults it is our responsibility to make sure kids enjoy the game regardless whether they win or lose. Teaching is for their parents or school the shop is a place to have fun and enjoy the game. Of course this is ideal and we both know neither of those two things happen very often.
I’m 13 and I use Hero strike and I have a tournament Wednesday and Saturday last weak I came 3st place
I feel like this is just a way to justify playing it at older ages. None of the things presented here are YGO exclusive. These types of people are everywhere. YGO is a children's because it is marketed and designed for children to understand it easily. Honestly it's silly to attempt to make this point at all. This is a game meant to be enjoyed by all ages but primarily younger people.
Ok. I'm freaking fourteen and I compete in local tournaments more than weekly. I mean, I go to four small tourneys a week and I almost was going to go the 2016 regionals. I love this game, I think it is not a childrens card game, but I know for the fact that children can go to those game stores where 20-30 year olds go and ave a good time playing a Japanese card game. All people can play yugioh and don't say it bad for children because that gives parents the wrong idea and don't allow their children to play.
well we dont have a shop in our town and we play in a room in town and a guy runs ygo and gets us stock everything u said in the video happens all the time hell even some ppl drink there is bs and on another note im going to my 1st mega regional in 6 weeks got any tips?
we have a video on that. I'll make paul answer
Alec Fields okay lol
Cory Thom Yeah, we've made a few videos on prepping for regionals, avoiding event fatigue, etc. but I don't think I've ever made one strictly for preparing for the event itself, so I'll see what I can do!
***** okay cool cant wait then
I use to play yugioh back when I was in middle school. I sadly stopped. I was never good at it, and not to mention I got teased a lot because of my deck. Never liked going to tournaments since a lot of the players are rude.. Plus some don't even play for fun.. it honestly sucks.. if I am gonna play a game like D&D, Yugioh, Pokemon, That stuff, I wanna play it with people who are having fun. In fact, I am getting into Heroclix because the players I have met are fun. and win or lose we always have a smile on our faces..
Not saying that yugioh players are assholes, Not everyone who plays it is an asshole. Just a lot of the people I have met are full of themselves and a bunch of jackasses.
what deck did u start with ? I had my V-Z cyber Dragon deck during 9th grade and a morphtronic deck in middle school. Now I'm playing monarchs and synchron quasar
it all has to do on your deck I thought that I wasn't good before because of my builds but then I built a blue eyes and I became better
This is so true. I cant stand it when people steal or rip off some new kid. That is just awful. I never see any kids at my locals since its mostly people in their 20s or so. At my old locals there was some kids there but not in this one. I kinda like it when there are some kids playing the game it makes it fun and interesting since they use decks they made that no one else would play.
what if somebody came up to you and told you to duel them in yu-gi-oh and your just a 9 year old kid. you need to have confidence
There are a few locals that are just cliquish can’t have a good experience Bc they just hang around certain crowds in my locals tho it’s real chill
Dear Paul,
Are you excited about the X-Saber support that has been announced?
Thanks :P
sonicgamerkingTV It's interesting. I'm a bit underwhelmed, but since several people have asked, I'm going to make a more in-depth video about it soon.
If people think yugioh is only a children's card game. Why do characters in the anime, who are like 16+ play the game? Those people are all biased on the whole subject.
yugioh is a game for people of all ages
I remember the first local tournament I won. I was still pretty much a noob because I after i won the finals (back then we played-off at locals) I asked the owner: "Who is my next opponent?" and he replied: "No one. You already won the whole thing". I also remember using gravekeepers in that tournament and beating the #1 guy in raking in Puerto Rico (where I live) and negated Sangan and Mystic Tomato with Necrovalley. Since the card was very controversial when it was going to be ruled, I accidentally made him believe that it indeed was able to negate effects that trigger in the grave. LOL.
Nice to meet another Puerto Rican Yu-Gi-Oh! player :)
SheninMKA nice to meet you as well :)
I'm 12 and I enjoy Yu-Gi-Oh.I love the original series and Zexal(I've only seen those two) and I can play the game with basic knowledge.I mean there are some things I don't understand but I know the game pretty well.The thing is adults play more than kids because kids don't know entertainment now a days and also because most adults that play grew up with it.I know a few kids who like the show,the game,play the game,and all of the above!Then again it depends how the word "kid" is being used.
I agree. I'm 14 and I started Yu-Gi-Oh in 2008 when 5ds came out. I started playing when I was 7 so I really like the game and don't think it's for kids. Even before that I used to watch some of Yu-Gi-Oh GX and was interested in the game. I watched all 5 series (only half of Zexal cuz it sucked) of Yu-Gi-Oh I think the reason Yu-Gi-Oh is seen as more childish now is because the newer series like Zexal and Arc-V are just really childish. The original Yu-Gi-Oh had a dark Egyptian theme and the there was stuff like getting trapped in cards and legendary cards from ancient times. GX had some of the dark theme as well in the last season with the main Character turning evil and the card from his past coming back. It also had some links to the original with the Slifer Red, Ra Yellow, and Obelisk Blue colours and The first episode where Yami gave Judai Winged Kuribo. 5ds was completely dark themed and I don't even need to explain it. Then they fucked up and made it carnival themed and stuff.
So yugioh players are bad examples of what people should be, so keep kids away
We should put in more effort to cleanup the community. Security cameras. Find ways to stop cheating. Tournament places need fresh air. Not sure what to do about showering and deodorant. Maybe regionals should have security guards and judges should check people when they entre and kick people out for not showering lol.
Well in this generation children are exposed to A LOT of "negative" things...smoking? A lot of parents smoke...and bad words? I mean for little kids (around 7-10) it pretty bad but I'm 13 and I've been exposed to a lot of stuff like that so yea that's just my opinion
I know I might get some hate for this, but most of the negative things you describe pertain solely to competitive players. I used to go to my local card shop as a kid to play the Yugioh and Pokemon TCG and it was always a positive experience for me, but as soon as I started trying to get more into the competitive scene I encountered a lot of what you described. I think the opposite, I think this is a children's card game and the more people in the community understand that the better the community will become. I mean people say that the game is too complicated and there is too much money being thrown around for it to be for kids, but the same can be said for other children's games and products. Do you know how much money someone is willing to pay for a lego mini-figure? I mean come on, just watch a commercial for one of the new booster packs and tell me that it isn't marketed towards kids. Sorry for the long rant I love what you guys do and I think you made some good points, I just think that the game isn't the problem the fanbase is. That's why I mostly play the game casually now with my friends or at small events. I play for fun and it makes me happy, if you play only to win and your one of those douchey people who go to locals and take pride in crushing kids crappy (but often creative) decks with your cookie cutter, copy paste, found on the internet decks then I truly feel sorry for you and if you play only to win and don't care about enjoying the game then you should play another game like magic or LOL or something, but hey that's just my opinion you are certainly entitled to your own :)
I grew up with yugioh ever since gba.
They shouldn't have adritise Yugioh to kids because I know for me and my friends we didnt actually know how to correctly play until our teenage years and it sucks have to read and explain the game to someone else becayse it is so complicated.
Some kid at my locals had a raigeki and he wanted to trade it for one of the supers I had. I had to tell him it was worth quite a bit and he should just trade it for anything
I have played at locals ever since i was around ten years old. I am now 18 and have learned a lot of what not to do because of all these stupid people at locals. I am just glad my parents dropped me off every week instead of staying or i might have never been allowed back
Great video guys! :D 'childrens card game' xD
im 12 i play yugioh i am a nerd 100percent and lets be honest do you think a 8 year old will walk into a locals its rare and smoking well that docent matter i live in ireland home of smokers
Maybe the 6+ years means that you better have 6+ years of experience before you show up to a YCS and chain ROTA to Dark Hole, thinking it negates, and you get to special summon 1 Felgrand with ROTA as the material.
ウィリアム フィチェ Hahahahaha good point
dueling kids players at local tourney can be stressful and I have to teach the does and don't of there deck
You also forgot about the demons tribute for lifes possesion death hell being in the manga and anime its not for kids its manga is for 17 up really and so is the sub anime version
The age rating should be 15 because at this age they would know about smoking and they would understand the rules better.
I still go to card shops and will still play yugioh
To those saying it's too complicated for kids, I started playing aged 7 (albeit all my friends were 2 years older but that's still fairly young).
Also, about the "people are dicks" thing, I went to my first event at 10 and everyone was nice to me. Not only that but they treated me like I was their age (although only after beating one of them in the first duel; I'm pretty sure they made some remark before I played). I didn't witness any smoking, swearing or any sort of rude behaviour.
+Taiga Hirose You might have been able to play at 7, but most kids had/have no idea how to play.
I understand that (trying to teach my classmates was a bit tedious at times) but I was kind of replying to the statement that this game is not for kids. It is for kids but equally for anyone else. Perhaps 7 is a bit young and I was just lucky to be good enough at reading and maths at that age but surely a 9 year old can play? Perhaps not to an amazing standard but should defo be able to play.
I could understand rules perfectly, and used glad beasts at age 11.
just one more thing to add (pointed towards the anime and not real world dueling), characters in the show die. like they actually freakin die
Paul what do you think about the new x saber support if u didn't c it it's on cyber knights channel ;)
Going to make a video eventually detailing my deeper thoughts, but in general, I'm underwhelmed. It looks nice at a glance, but rereading it and considering how Sabers operate will quickly reveal the truth.
mmm interesting
I thought they were going to talk about how complicated the game is. Not to be rude,but the logic used here could be applied to a teeter totter. Just because a bunch of adults who, smoke, cuss, and steal make up a majority of who rides the totter doesn't mean it's childish. Seems more like an attack on the community.
