    Hey guys! I hope you enjoy the longest video yet! I don’t think I’ve ever put more time and effort into an opening sequence and I hope it gets you really excited about the game. While we can’t play IRL right now we still can play online with our friends and the people we love. We can still have amazing online locals; we can still order pizza and we can still stay up till 4am on Saturday nights chatting with the guys. Let’s keep this game strong and ensure the community is there when real life Yu-Gi-Oh does resume. I love you guys and I hope you’re doing well, feeling healthy and enjoying the game.
    P.S. To be completely honest, the last video didn’t perform as well as I’d like so if you wouldn’t mind please consider sharing this new video with a friend or on Facebook, Twitter or Reddit. it would mean a lot :) I put a massive amount of work into these and I want them to have a positive impact on the community. Anyways, again, as always, love you guys!

      @guywithastrawhat3270 4 года назад +16

      Yeah but I can't state that enough, we are the problem. In the end people give in and buy the cards for a ridiculous price. If people would refuse to buy singles which have a ridiculous price because of the short printing. The second hand retailers will stop earning money and drop the prices. But therefore the ycs etc players have to do the first turn. They have to stop buying these cards in the first place, but this will never happen because everyone wants to win.

    I mostly play Yugioh with one of my friends because the next locals is about an hour drive away from my place and he plays Altergeist. I'd almost put that deck on one Level with Mystic Mine... Even maindecking that one Red Reboot we have left, 3 Twin Twisters and 3 Cyclones, it's still such a difficult and annoying matchup. As soon as he realized I played D.D. Crow against his Multifaker, he kept returning it to hand with Silquitous for cost. But with cards like Verte Anaconda Cyber Dragons are luckily able to otk alot more stuff than they used to :D

I remember working graveyard shift and me and a couple friends picked up the very first starter decks as something to do during our lunch breaks as at 2 am there not alot going on. Played all the way through goat format and eventually stopped after i lost collection of cards after moving states. Still amazes me how much faster game is these days.

    You give me faith in yugioh Ruggles. I'm a long time player and I'm the one that gave you advice about the hero deck on previous videos.
    Also great photography skills, where did you learn to do all the things you do?
    Edlich is a great deck definitely! And a control deck that has power and a searchable counter trap is always good to have!!
    Currently I've finished my hero deck and loaded the deck with counter traps.
    And looking at new decks to play. Currently maybe synchro inspired by a RUclips named o37wolf.
    Sadly not sure what to play outside of heros. But I'm now looking for a good control deck to play or spam with control cause counter traps are truly too fun to play when interacting with your opponent.

As for Heros with counter traps, that's super fun. My buddy Wes and I put together a Darklaw Turbo deck which also played 6+ solemns and all of those good counter traps which keep dark law on the board. It was a lot better than expected and I'm glad you're also enjoying something similar! Have you tried the trap heavy Cyber Dragon deck yet?

      I have played cyber dragons before before the reprints hit i sold most of the deck. But i have some cards just gotta get the search cards.
      I've played The control version and the otk/ spam version.
      I like the control and the spam aspects but the bodies sometimes are never big enough and if you start to lose advantage its hard to come back.

    Hey Ruggles! You just earned yourself a subscriber with your great content. Your returning to Yu-Gi-Oh! series is so relatable to many people, including myself. Really appreciate the positivity you bring to the community, especially during this pandemic.
    Just a quick thought on your question about handling the Altergeist matchup which, though I'm not the best at Eldlich, I'm just throwing some insight based on my understanding of how the deck works along with my experience having been an Altergeist player in the past.
    There are just three big things to be cognizant of:
    (1) TEMPO SETTERS
    With multifaker at 1, Altergeist is going to be generally less consistent and thus the tempo will be a little slower in terms of creating a board of monsters. This means, the deck has to be more reliant on Marionetter, Personal Spoofing, and Meluseek as key starters for the deck. That said, of the three, Meluseek and Spoofing are the most important to try and stop given that Altergeist tends to have around half of their deck being traps anyway making Marionetter more likely to be used as an extender rather than a setup card (unless that's their only play in the early game). Ash, D.D. Crow, and Huaquero all stop Meluseek, the latter two of which being especially strong due to the new displacement rules. Spoofing can be hit by Ash and Conquistador, the latter of which being preferred.
    (2) MULTIFAKER
    As you mentioned in the video, getting rid of Multifaker via D.D. Crow or Huaquero is what lets you stop them from snowballing into a massive board which, despite Lord and Conquistador, is difficult to out. Just try to be conscious of the timing since they can chain Altergeist Manifestation in response (or negate it with Golden Land Forever!).
    (3) RESOURCE GAME
    Once it gets to mid to late game, their way of replenishing resources largely comes from a combination of Silquitous/Manifestation's effects to be able to recover their traps, Personal Spoofing to be able to replenish their monsters and Marionetter which will either keep setting them or be used as a means to apply board pressure through its secondary effect which lets it act as an extender. Given that you can only banish so much with your Eldlich, you need a means of cutting them off which is where Golden Lord, Conquistador, D.D. Crow, and Huaquero are quite critical.
    TL;DR: With the Altergeist matchup, it's a matter of focusing less on their monster generation early game compared to hitting key cards that enable them to generate and replenish their resources. Take advantage of the fact that Eldlich is very good at commanding the tempo and flow of the game which can overwhelm the opponent!

Thank you for taking the time to type all of that out, I really feel like I learned a lot :) I'll definitely put a lot of additional focus on the Meluseek and Spoofing.

    Ooo so for the Altergeist match-up some tips I would suggest are the Huaquero/Conquistador trick if they summon Meluseek where you CL1 Huaquero and CL2 Conquistador to pop and banish the Meluseek before it gets to activate its effect. Another important thing is how you utilize your conquistador, it's best to chain it to things such as Personal Spoofing after they've already shuffled for cost. This is a match-up I love playing from both sides of it, feels super interactive and really skill based! And yeah now getting to the end of the video, looks like you've got it figured out LOL. Man the amount of admiration I've grown for editing over the last few months has really increased my appreciation for the videos that you make. I'm really glad you picked up Eldlich, the deck is fantastic and the control style is just so fun to play in general. Can't wait for the next episode! :D

    Though I’ll play online occasionally, I’d much rather play in person so I’ve been teaching my fiancé the 2002 format. I just picked up the original yugi, kaiba and Pegasus starter decks, and made a Joey one from cards I had. We were pretty even until she started using the Joey deck and since that one is more anime themed and not stock, she beat me every time. She’s still not crazy about the game in general but I’m hoping one day we can play current format.

    I'll add for anybody who bothered checking down here, less strictly competitive but making every monster a huge beatstick with the Rank 10 Ravenous Tarantula & stealing things you just destroyed with conquistador using Rank 5 Vampire Bram (especially if it's a boss monster like Avramax) are both a lot of fun, xP my sometimes banished 1 ofs.

    Hey man i recommend getting yugioh side loaders for your cards, you can find them at ebay, they will protect your cards so when you finally want to sell them, they are all still in mint condition even if played (The tight side loaders prevent cards from moving preventing scratches). Sometimes i double or triple sleeve my cards, i put the side loaded tight fit in a looser top loader then finally in a pokemon sleeve for nice sealed fit, deck is huge but protected. Gotta protect our investments brother. Now if you dont triple sleeve them least side load them then place them in regular yugioh sleeve's, i recommend side loaders because it protects the card when played, preventing dirt and buggers from accumulating on the tops of the cards and finger prints. This is my advice to you brother. It will be a pain putting all your cards in side loaders but it will be more of a pain not being able to sell cards at NM/MINT status, so its worth it. Also you may want to pick up some micro fiber cloth, so you can possibly clean any dirty cards, yes its possible, its on youtube.
    Cheers mate.

    That's a nice pull of the golden boys Ruggles. Indeed, even we can't go to locals.
    We can still play it online and for those budget players, or any players really. You have access to all yugioh cards ever printed. ( That's 22,000 cards last time I check and it's still counting) So go ahead and make your deck you always wanted online.
    As well once we do go back to normal, we all have our own deck to try out. So look out Ruggles, your deck has huge competition against the other decks. Especially the fossil deck.
    Oh Ruggles, a quick suggestion. Ask one of your friend to fight your deck but instead of the regular hands traps. Replace them with Dark ruler no more and the card that might be the counter of your deck. Red Blossoms from the Underroot.
    That being said, I hope all of you have a good week. Until next dual, stay safe!
