@@raejhanlarki.salaria2982 Not sure 🤔 I do make youtube videos and sometimes I post the links to a few discord servers, so that could also be why you recognize my name.
you are really one heck of a ygo tuber. I still love the video podcast you did with the Professor of Tolarian Community College where you compared the games, and that you talk about stuff of YGo that is not always gameplay reliant/relevant, but also about side merch Konami makes. Keep the work up, buddy.
Hold on, you want to tell me that you all aren't secret Konami employees whose main mission is to brainwash us into spending all our money on a ton of RNG cardbord products that have no real value in the real world outside of this game? I'M SHOCKED........SHOCKEEEED!!!! Day 713 of waiting for Good Pyro/Volcanic/Felgrand Support to arrive in the OCG/TCG..........
I think this kind of content is better to be separated from the main one... Some people only want to watch Yu Gi Oh contents than this kind of insight and opinion from him. Personally I like this behind the scenes opinion and experience, but I don't think others want it. Hopefully not that many people that dislike it, better not watch it if that the case...
I thought this was going to be about y'all outside of yugioh and youtube lol. Seeing Sam and other yugitubers get excited about old school rarities is a huge side of yugioh, (especially for those of us who collect more than play!) I dig that energy
Team Sam use to really throw me the wrong way, until I started just appreciating the incredibly high production that literally ALL of the man's videos are, the amount of work involved in that must be astronomical. That and he's just a really funny guy.
the weirdest thing i saw was that people were complaining that yugioh series like cimo's progression series was causing buyouts of older cards. they are literally just playing the game. How does one even come to the conclusion that it's their fault for that?
It's not specifically cimo's progression series that are causing buy outs of older cards, it's the concept as a whole. A ton of people started doing sealed-only videos after gage did his, and a lot of people started doing progression videos after Alex did his. These trends bring certain ideas into the minds of the general public. Ideas they may not have had otherwise. Someone will see MBT pull a bunch of heros from various GX sets in his progression play offs, and they think "damn, heros are so cool. I wanna play old school heros again." And they go online and buy all the heros they want. Had they not seen a video of someone opening a bunch of heros, that thought wouldn't have happened. And stuff like that happens all the time. A big name in the yugitube game brings a particular sunset of cards to forefront of people's minds, and that results in those cards being bought. The content creators don't do it on purpose, and probably don't even realize it's happening, but it's definitely happening. Hell, I've even done it myself. I saw a video somebody made about how they want ghost rares back and thought "ghost rares are so cool. I should pick some up before they get super pricey." And I went and bought a ghost leviathan dragon and a ghost heart earth dragon. They've since tripled in price. It's not the yugitubers fault either. Most of these are purchases that would be made at some point regardless. The videos just inadvertently cause a bunch of those purchases to happen all at the same time.
When I started the game, I checked on some videos, I quickly got to TeamSamurai channel and saw some of his videos on archetypes comming from a "new set" and he was legit saying that one the deck was insane, competitive and some of the combos were broken. I spent my money, learned all I had to do to play it right and basicaly lost to True Draco, Dragon Link and Thunder Dragon on locals without any chance of winning. So being new meant I couldn't really "be more cautious about it" since I could barely understand what was making a deck good at this point. When you start to play the game, you don't really expect poeples to be lying to sell sets and be in good terms with Konami. On the other hand, I'm pretty sure that TeamSamurai is a good player that understand what's good and what's not, witch make him someone that just purposely lies to poeple. Unlike Cimo, who's way more honest about things and refuse to hype stuff that doesnt deserve any hype even if that means being in bad terms with Konami, the dude got my respect for that... (And btw... most of the poeples who trashtalk him about Adamancipator would have put Drytron tier 3 before we learnt about all those tech like Dawn knight, Eva and even more...) So in the end of the day, the dude isn't in my mind, but when someone ask for some Yugitubers recommandation around me, if they're fairly new to the game or "not that good at judging what's good and what's bad" for themself, I just tell them to avoid TeamSamurai cause I don't want anyone to put money into things they'll regret... money doesnt grow on trees...
It's about time someone say that, I appreciate you guys and I enjoy the content. Ya'll are trying to make a living out of something you like and spread the love. Props for going out of your way to address this. ❤️
This is so true, RUclips in general is built in a way that you don't HAVE see the things you don't want to watch, so why would people go out of their way to just hate on someone? It makes no sense to me. I'm glad that the issue is being brought up.
Some people legitimately hate, others are just trying to educate anyone who might be steered in the wrong direction (such as someone predisposed to gambling problems). There is a right and wrong way to go about and some do it the wrong way.
If there’s anyone we can all openly hate... It’s the scumbags that steal Yugioh cards. But in all seriousness, the community is better when everyone’s open to letting people be themselves and welcoming newbies. If you truly love the game then stop people other people down.
@@PathBeyondTheDark can’t speak as a creator but as someone who’s only gotten back into the TCG over the last 3 months I can tell you first hand that, at least at locals, the amount of people that just wanna take advantage of the fact that you don’t know much about the game or value of what you have is ridiculous. And people wanna put you down for not playing Meta or not fully understanding something and instead of teaching newbies and cultivating a bigger and stronger community they’re just inadvertently making the community smaller and smaller.
@@tokyosour4215 It's called "gatekeeping." And yes, I am all too familiar. Ngl I, ashamedly, did take advantage of "kids" with little knowledge of the game back in the day on more then one occasion and feel bad about it in retrospect. But this seems to be a very common thing amongst even semi-competitive players and knowing it hasn't changed is disheartening. These types of players have one track minds: "if it helps me, it's good." [Shameful "I hate modern YGO" plug] This is the mentality imo they have when it comes to things like Hand Traps, Omni Negates, etc that effectively "gatekeep" those who prefer interaction/playing the game in their games from entering the competitive scene.
@@tokyosour4215 I that had happened to me at a local cardshop in my country. A guy ask me to show him my deck of cards and when I did he laughed at my cards I just gotten back into yugioh aswell some of these clowns does make the game unbearable & YES I'M A CASUAL DUELIST😭. Greetings from trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
I really like this explanation of things. I just started doing openings on my channel, and this type of stuff helps me keep doing it. It is work and definitely a grind. I think people need to understand we all have our own opinions on cards, we might like a certain deck more than they do. We are just like them! 👏🏽👏🏽
There's a car going off in the parking lot, oh it stopped. Anyway back to the video LOL! Great work Paul. I really like these videos man, they really are important to talk about especially considering we're all just people who enjoy YuGiOh and as Yugitubers we're just trying to grow the community. Making any sort of video no matter the type of channel takes time and effort. Just because you don't like someone's content doesn't mean that you should actively hate them. We as yugitubers (recognized and up-and-coming) are just trying to have fun and enjoy what we do so please don't hate on us for our work good or bad
I think the cimooo thing is like a nfl draft analyst saying a certain player will not be good and then when the season comes he's a superstar but it happens we can't sometimes predict the outcome of things like how good a deck can be
I love this kind of content. I haven't even played YuGiOh since GX days, but fundamentally everything you're saying about behavior translates into other demographics or areas as well, and it keeps the content weighted. You're my favorite of Team APS for this kind of articulation and demeanor. Keep it up!
Appreciate all the effort you guys put in and wish you well deserved success. You got me invested in the game again and I might take part in my first tournament this year. Thanks!
Thank you for this. I’d like to even expand on some things you said. Taking Sam as an example, he wasn’t my cup of tea for the reasons you mentioned, but, then my daughter got into the game (with help from you and your advise) and Sam became one of her favorites BECAUSE he was excited and memeing a lot. I then found myself watching Sam more with her and now I watch him as much as I watch you guys and the other YugiTubers I personally preferred. I even watch Sam without her now and comment and get engaged with his videos. It just took a different perspective for me to really appreciate his grind and his passion for the game. Sometimes, people just need a different perspective on things, too. He may not be your preference but he wouldn’t be acting insane if he didn’t have a true love and passion for this game and I have the utmost respect for him. Once Covid clears, I hope we can run into him at an event one day. Same applies with Cimoooooooo. He was not my thing in the beginning. He reminded me of a guy I went to college with who I had a real distaste for, but then I realize the man wouldn’t be pouring himself into the game and making a life from it if he didn’t care deeply about it. Do I like all of his opinions? No way. But maybe he has some insight on things I don’t. His video about the penguins deck the other week ended up being completely legit. Every single yugituber tries to bring something to the table and those real folks just want everyone to love the game as much as they do. That old phrase “real recognizes real” gets a whole new meaning on RUclips and in this game. Quick end cap: amazing point. Amazing conversation piece. We love and respect all our yugitubers in this house because none of you would be grinding like this if the game wasn’t your passion. Please accept this novel of a comment for Pulitzer Prize consideration 😂
I'm no where close to a shop where locals happen. Having this content is such a blessing, I enjoy the duels, skits and discussions. Love you guys, keep it up!
People put too much stock in what random people on the internet say... who knew? This issue has been around since basically the dawn of public forums, and is prevalent in any kind of fan-driven media. Remember when people saw early reviews of No Man's Sky or, more recently, Cyberpunk, then flipped out because they weren't god-tier-perfect scores? Reviewers, developers, streamers, YOU NAME IT, consistently get harassed with death threats, doxing, and all sorts of over the top bullshit, and why? Because people don't like it when people on the internet say things they disagree with. I don't know that I have anything meaningful to add to the conversation, just puttin' it out there that this is a pretty widespread issue with people in general. I genuinely do not understand what drives people to give SO MUCH of a shit about what other people think. People get harassed, stalked, threatened in their ACTUAL, real lives over opinions they gave on the internet. It's fucking nuts... but then again, I can't really figure out a LOT of why people say and do the things they do these days, so... guess humans just gonna be crazy idiots, yeah?
I really appreciate all Yugitubers coming up with deck profiles. That's a lot of work. If the deck doesn't for me I just change some cards to make it work for me. I really like watching you guys dueling at home, it's fun to watch.
Funnily enough Paul, I feel this discussion doesn't even really apply to just yugitubers. I at least think it could really encompass all youtubers, artist, and other online personalities & influencers. Don't hate the player, hate the game as some say.
Precisely. Also allow me to follow that up with Konami is the greedy enemy here. We should all be trying to make the game better not fighting amongst ourselves while they get a pass in their comfy conference rooms.
1. Yes, you're right that yugitubing is harder than it looks. Buying product for pack pulling does eat up at funds, and if your're not careful you will be out of money. 2. I doubt the card price hype is just that, HYPE. After hype goes down it's just a matter of want or need. I think that maybe card prices are influenced through the mean of their sells. 3. End of the day, I just enjoy yugitubing because it's a new way to meet fellow players and share ideas. Met a few I don't agree with, but I don't hate them. Since this whole virus thing, yugitubing is actually how I got to keep up with this hobby,as well as keep trading. Thanks Paul for this video, and keep up the good work.
I think you guys, the Cali effect, and Cimo are the top three. But as far as playing yu-gi-oh, Cimo's progression series is one of the best things to come out of yugitubing in a long time. imo
Im really glad you did this video and put in perspective... We just starting out ourselves and it is hard youre right.. The editing making content for the channel Maintaining for the channel figuring out how to make it big on youtube been an interesting journey so far
I agree with you. I do think though that when you start being more popular on RUclips or Twitch and getting more followers that there is a a sort of celebrity effect on those RUclipsrs, or in this case YugiTubers, that comes from a lot of sources, such as hate or admiration. I feel, especially these days, when there is this sort of following that everyone understands there are social implications, even though some of those implications are unwanted. I believe it just comes with the territory (even if its not healthy in some case) whether you are a celebrity or RUclipsr or Twitch Streamer. I like these sorts of videos you produce because the give the insight that not most people can receive into what happens behind the scenes.
That's sounds like the lesson most communities needs, because it's not only YGO community, it happens on everywhere, like most people relay wayy too much on someone's else's opinions, beliefs, daily routines like they obey them, and that's very wrong by far. People need to consider their thoughts and just stick to their own routine otherwise you ain't different then them
You couldn’t be more correct!! Even for the little guy this is a TON of work! Nobody is perfect and hindsight is 20/20 keep up the great content man love these little spats you’ve been doing great insight!
Great content, Paul :) I love these little discussions, it gives great insight and in these type of videos you speak out things I've had on my mind for a while. When it comes to leaving tubers alone, I truly believe the people who 'hate'/share negative thoughts are a minority that is just quite loud. At least that's what I hope. So I wanted to say great job, maybe to some degree in order to counter-act the hate but also just cause I think this is a very good discussion. Thank you :)
Team samurai just makes yugioh more hype man his energy extremely high and not toxic. You can tell he loves this game with his soul. You guys however give the game like a calm energy
Yeah but you really shouldn't listen to his dexk profiles, from my experience every single deck he makes is "god tier" even when it's an unviable archtype like blue eyes
@@lukasr1166 Most of his subs are "casuals" who think legacy/anime support are always good/broken. He has to pander to them. His deck profiles are also a little shaky sometimes.
I didnt know about the Cimo tier list drama cause I dont regularly watch his videos. For the most part his videos are good. The “dont buy this set” videos in my opinion are just eye rolling. I dont buy sealed but most people are wise about being sealed. Being more tact about the way he portrays this message could benefit him greatly. If Konami opens up more to content creators then maybe, just maybe, they might listen more to our own opinions about the game.
Before I open my mouth or type something I ask myself “If I say this will it do good in the world?”. If you don’t like a channel then unsub. We need to respect each other again.
I'm a Yugi Tuber. I just recording myself dueling on ygo omega or other simulators. I play ranked matches or duel my subscribers. I duel for fun and escape reality for a bit. All I can say is, "stay calm, keep dueling."
Its pretty much the same for every RUclipsr, they are just people with the drive to want to make content. It doesn't always mean you are an expert but you do enjoy the same things as the viewer.
I think what a lot of people have lost is the sensibility of conversation. If they can find that again, then I think people can have a healthy debate on the game. It's no fun when you have an opinion and everyone and their grandmothers are coming at you because you have an opinion on a specific archetype, or of the like.
Yeah, I think that its very important to let the people know that celebrities can have opinions instead of being, like, the all-knowing oracle that gets every deck list build perfect and so on. I sometimes disagree with some tech choices myself.
I'm not going to lie, I went through a period in 2017 when I completely blocked all yugioh related content from my feed because it was getting me so worked up. I'm glad I discovered your team's content, though, since you guys do so many creative things. If it wasn't for that MTG vs yugioh video, I'd have never heard of your team.
I can agree with this video for the most extent, but there is one thing that I will contest, while a Yugituber may not intentionally inflate the price of a card, there is a point that their platform and voice are heard much more in the YGO community. On top of that. Them exposing the cards and being hyped/hyping up the cards does have influence on the prices. I think Yugitubers do need to take responsibility that their voices and actions do have some effect either in the community or on the market, so I feel that also needs to be addressed.
I also think that Gage/Nyhmnim is underrated, but that's mainly because he doesn't post videos on a constant bases, but I love his Sealed Only YGO and This Awful YGO Card was Good?! series.
While the Yugituber community is relatively small, I’m really thankful for the people in it to give us different takes on decks, archetypes, dueling, community, keeping Maxx C banned, and Top 10s. Everyone has their own style, but I’m thankful for all of you. EDIT: if someone says your deck or favorite card is ass, you have the option to play it or not. Remember: I still run Dustons in 2021, and idc how bad the deck is.
I'm new to Yu-Gi-Oh (I started playing with Duel Links when it launched because I don't have a lot of card shops near me) and I never realized how immature some people in the community are to take RUclipsrs' words as gospel. RUclips is definitely helpful for someone new to the game so they can discover what the meta is, how to build decks, etc. But at the end of the day everyone should play the cards they want, who cares!
Well you do have a point. However the reason some us view channels is because is to get real advice from more experienced or more knowledgeable players. So you if say hey this card is good or bad more often than not I'm gonna take your word on it. Because you should know what your talking about because of all the experience you have.
Talking about TeamSam, I've been lucky enough to run into him a few times, he seems like a nice enough guy, appreciative of his fans, and yeah, just a cool person. That being said, I'm not the biggest fan of his content, so I only watch a few videos here and there because I do want to support him, but his style of video is a bit much for me. And that's fine, that seems to be who he is. I didn't really have a point to this, just wanted to input my two cents on Sam, since you talked about him.
There's a useful term that's used in conversations surrounding youtube personalities called the parasocial relationship. Both the audience and the content creator need to be aware of the one-sided relationship between them. An audience member needs to know the healthy ways to engage with big online personalities and not expect to make them part of their social reality. As well, the content creator needs to be aware of the expectations they set in their content and to make clear their own boundaries with regards to the relationship between themselves and their audience.
When the yugioh community is mostly children and/or people who have the mentality of a child you’re bound to get a lot of misunderstanding and misinterpretation. These people think content creators live in a different dimension than them apparently.
I think some of the pedestal issues are a misconception that people have inside knowledge. Clearly if a content maker gets some product early they must have inside knowledge. Which isn't true video game companies send out review copies to various sites and companies to help promote and same goes for stuff like card games. What better way to promote your game especially since the cards are no longer anime linked. If you send a few boxes out early to people then you can get people's attention. I've seen similar issues with other stuff like some MMOs, where players straight up said "it must be true because x said so" because the concept of prediction escapes some.
Great stuff. I like watching yugitubers. I don't have a lot of money. So to watch them open up packs, and find the great cards. I like that. I watch Team Samurai and Team APS. I haven't had a chance to watch that Cimo guy yet
Is it bad that I prefer this to the content to the OG channel? Don't get me wrong I like the fun stuff you post on there but I prefer more discussion based content. I prefer not needing to watch the video and sort of multi-task. I really love the discussions on here and hope it continues. This is not to be a criticism of the main channel but more just a preference as I sort of prefer more 'boring' content. Same with basketball, I will always listen to discussions over highlights or 2k videos.
To touch on this just a bit, some YugiTubers do speak about the Meta like it's a spoken truth, and so many flock to them for advice and thoughts. They speak confidently placing what they say into a realm of criticism if they are wrong, as they often wish to be right. Humility is often not an attribute of the normal YugiTuber (APS is an exception to this, Paul is VERY humble as is most of APS) When you speak with confidence, it has an effect on others. In some of my psychology courses, we looked at Authority Figures, and what they often have in common are traits like, speaking with confidence, looking the part (an experimenter wore a lab coat, then didn't wear a lab coat, the experimenter was given more respect for looking the part than not.), as well as defending their points, people skills in how they approach others and talk to others, etc. Think in the realm of leadership as well. Sorry for the rant, but that might explain why Cimo got roasted so hard on his prediction that went awry.
ya but I think those people need to work on their issues. If you value a stranger's opinion that much, goddamn who knows what a person could make you do in real life.
I feel like this issue of people being critical of people like Cimo is more a product of the community, who feel justified enough in their irritation at someone else’s opinion to type some excessively mean or backseat comment on RUclips or social media. I’m not saying this is exclusively a problem with the Yugioh community, as many other groups certainly exhibit this behavior, but it is striking to see so much of it on Yugioh videos.
RUclips is a influencer platform . Maybe watcher's should be more mindful and I agree also just like RUclipsr should also be more mindful on what they say. It works both ways . Some people do get triggered by false information so they voice their opinions on what they think. It's life.. this will never change. It comes with the territory. All in all great video we value your perspectives.. words are power
Serious question. Do you guys have videos of competitively going against each other in a match? I honestly would like to see how y’all are in a competitive match up
Yugitubers are just YGO Players making Videos like every other RUclipsr. They can make mistakes or may say something where you may disagree. But they put a lot of work and effort into their Videos, so keep this in mind before you start making hurtful Comments. That is the Message I got from this. Bringing Cimooooo up was a good example. He's just trying to make Content and even he can make mistakes as anybody else.
I can't stand his content or the people that watch him. They all come across as ADHD kids on a sugar rush. However, just because I feel that way doesn't mean that ill go out of my way to make him or the people that watch him feel bad about how they act.
I do agree that any yugitubers opinion should be taken with a grain of salt but I don’t think you give yourself enough credit because people look up to you and when someone who has a large following says something, that has some weight to it, especially since you guys (yugitubers) have been doing this for so long but I do understand where your coming from. Much love to you guys 👍🏽
If a yugituber (your example of TeamSamurai) says "This variant is the best variant" and it turns out that it isn't or the fact its one of the worst variants in reality. They are essentially lying to the viewers. Especially to new yugioh players who would take their word as fact when they don't know any better. To make matters worse, unfortunately Yugitubers do affect the secondary market and can cause people to waste actual money on a deck that isn't at its best. They'd feel betrayed when finding out the hard way. As for my dislikes of yugitubers, I personally don't like TeamSamurai because he claims everything is broken and everything is Tier 0 or Tier 1 when I know in reality, that isn't the case. I don't like Mkhol40 because he looked down on other players during Nekroz Format saying the Djinn lock was "bad" and that people playing it are "stupid" (paraphrasing). Then acted as if Snatch Steal coming off the list wouldn't do anything outside mirror matches. I know these were his opinions, but how he behaved about it and how he addressed it acting like he was better than everyone else, was the driving point for me to unsub to him. Of course I left it at that.
Sam says that every new deck or new support for older decks are Tier 0 because he gets paid by Konami, a total asskisser, and that's why I don't respect him.
All of the Yugitubers I watch are all amazing! 👍 Not sure who you are talking about. I know it’s hard being a content creator. Filming and editing takes forever. Not that I’ve made any videos but I work in the camera industry so I have an idea of the challenges.
My biggest problem with yugitubers is just a problem in general for all of RUclips and twitch creators. I can't stand the over the top fake personalities that are put on. This is a big reason why channels like these are so important for the community. There are real people behind these videos
Ppl need to get a life, too many yugioh players are really toxic. Dropping r word like they're 12 year olds in the mid 2000s. If the player base was more welcoming and knew how to shower/ wear a mask correctly in shops the community would be much larger.
My main problem with yugitubers is that they get a lot of products directly sent from konami to promote them in advance. I have no problem with that per se but it happens way too often. In the end they get all the "new shiny cards" that every single one wants to have essentially for free. Yugioh is a very very expensive game and it seems like yugitubers always get a head start and ultimately may forget that the rest of us doesn't buy every single new release but would want to. Every time a new special edition set comes out and i hear every yugituber begin their video with "yeah, konami just sent me these" i get a bit mad because i know i will never get these and they get it for free. Don't get me wrong, i think most yugitubers are doing a great job and i enjoy most of the videos but i think ultimately yugitubers and the average player don't come from the same place to play the game. I never see anyone on yt talking about the pricing of some products.
you right. At the end of the day anyone makes mistakes. Like these people are trying they best to put the content out for us. So I mean, Keep it up, guys! you guys are awesome!
I desire to be a wealthy yugituber and a music and a comedy 🌟. I hate the fact that teamsamuraiX1 ripped cards on more than 1 occasion. I actually felt the cards pain being an oracle and tarot divinator.
Anything in media production is hard work. As in working on video production before it’s not a cake walk like a lot of people make it out to be. This game has so many man children it’s very sad. I feel like they don’t know understand how RUclips works and that people making videos aren’t gods and what they say is suppose to be what’s right, it’s just their opinion and they are human. Anyone who ever makes RUclips a career knows that you have to make videos in a steady fashion and have to make videos interesting. It’s not easy.
I actually prefer this channel to all the others I’ve come across. I don’t even play. Haven’t played since starter deck Joey but love this channel, on the flip side that team Sam guy is pretty much everything I see that’s wrong with the game.
I dont think its wrong to hold Yugitubers accountable for their influence but also those same people should hold themselves accountable for taking w.e Yugitubers say at face value. I seriously dont understand how so many people always seem to be mad at X Yugituber for making X card go up in price. They didnt make it go up in price, greedy people on the 2nd market made it go up in price. Thats something that will always happen. There are people influenced by money specifically becausr this game doesnt provide cash prices to tournament attendees.
This is a big problem on the internet. RUclipsr, Streamer, Influencer, people are whorshipping these peoples in a very unhealthy way. Or wasting there time hating them for very dumb reason.
I think my issue with Yugioh Youtubing isn't necessarily the RUclipsr themselves, it's the mob mentality, and for some reason viewers view them as some divine God and if someone says otherwise they're objectively wrong and stuff like that. I have been vocal about some popular yugioh RUclipsra that I don't watch, but I have my problems when I did watch them, and in my opinion some of the best Yugioh videos come from people who aren't Yugioh RUclipsrs, and I think there needs to be someone to make some change, and make some inventive content. Doesn't need to be artsy with editing, but come up with an original idea that a lot of people could be interested in
At the end of the day it's just a game, and there are some people out there that make it more than that. But I think you're touching on a deeper subject, which is that we (humanity) are lacking in respecting one another's free speech and not taking things personal to the point where you are treating others disrespectfully. The idea of saying you hate someone is pretty harsh, especially over an opinion they are entitled to, or slandering or bashing them instead of removing them from your life (like you said, you can block a channel you don't like for example). Yugitubers do put in a lot of work (I can attest to that), and everyone is different and unique, and that's okay. We all have to treat each other respectfully at the end of the day. It's okay to have a different opinion and disagree, even "argue" (respectfully), and still walk away with mutual respect for your fellow human being

I don't think there is anything he could do further to convince me of how genuine he is. Gotta love content creators like this.
Exactly seems like a type of person I would be friends with
Hold on, you want to tell me that you all aren't secret Konami employees whose main mission is to brainwash us into spending all our money on a ton of RNG cardbord products that have no real value in the real world outside of this game? I'M SHOCKED........SHOCKEEEED!!!!

Felgrand?
@@paulitics3629 It's just for today since it released on this day 5 years ago and hasn't receive any real support.
This is something I couldn't agree with more, and I honestly think it could go on your guys' main channel just so that more people can see it.
I think this kind of content is better to be separated from the main one... Some people only want to watch Yu Gi Oh contents than this kind of insight and opinion from him. Personally I like this behind the scenes opinion and experience, but I don't think others want it. Hopefully not that many people that dislike it, better not watch it if that the case...
Love you emanon
I thought this was going to be about y'all outside of yugioh and youtube lol. Seeing Sam and other yugitubers get excited about old school rarities is a huge side of yugioh, (especially for those of us who collect more than play!) I dig that energy
Team Sam use to really throw me the wrong way, until I started just appreciating the incredibly high production that literally ALL of the man's videos are, the amount of work involved in that must be astronomical. That and he's just a really funny guy.
the weirdest thing i saw was that people were complaining that yugioh series like cimo's progression series was causing buyouts of older cards. they are literally just playing the game. How does one even come to the conclusion that it's their fault for that?
It's not specifically cimo's progression series that are causing buy outs of older cards, it's the concept as a whole.
A ton of people started doing sealed-only videos after gage did his, and a lot of people started doing progression videos after Alex did his.
These trends bring certain ideas into the minds of the general public. Ideas they may not have had otherwise.
Someone will see MBT pull a bunch of heros from various GX sets in his progression play offs, and they think "damn, heros are so cool. I wanna play old school heros again."
And they go online and buy all the heros they want.
Had they not seen a video of someone opening a bunch of heros, that thought wouldn't have happened.
And stuff like that happens all the time. A big name in the yugitube game brings a particular sunset of cards to forefront of people's minds, and that results in those cards being bought.
The content creators don't do it on purpose, and probably don't even realize it's happening, but it's definitely happening.
Hell, I've even done it myself. I saw a video somebody made about how they want ghost rares back and thought "ghost rares are so cool. I should pick some up before they get super pricey." And I went and bought a ghost leviathan dragon and a ghost heart earth dragon. They've since tripled in price.
It's not the yugitubers fault either. Most of these are purchases that would be made at some point regardless. The videos just inadvertently cause a bunch of those purchases to happen all at the same time.
I like these kind of videos. Nice to get a discussion started in the community.
When I started the game, I checked on some videos, I quickly got to TeamSamurai channel and saw some of his videos on archetypes comming from a "new set" and he was legit saying that one the deck was insane, competitive and some of the combos were broken. I spent my money, learned all I had to do to play it right and basicaly lost to True Draco, Dragon Link and Thunder Dragon on locals without any chance of winning.
So being new meant I couldn't really "be more cautious about it" since I could barely understand what was making a deck good at this point. When you start to play the game, you don't really expect poeples to be lying to sell sets and be in good terms with Konami. On the other hand, I'm pretty sure that TeamSamurai is a good player that understand what's good and what's not, witch make him someone that just purposely lies to poeple. Unlike Cimo, who's way more honest about things and refuse to hype stuff that doesnt deserve any hype even if that means being in bad terms with Konami, the dude got my respect for that... (And btw... most of the poeples who trashtalk him about Adamancipator would have put Drytron tier 3 before we learnt about all those tech like Dawn knight, Eva and even more...)
So in the end of the day, the dude isn't in my mind, but when someone ask for some Yugitubers recommandation around me, if they're fairly new to the game or "not that good at judging what's good and what's bad" for themself, I just tell them to avoid TeamSamurai cause I don't want anyone to put money into things they'll regret... money doesnt grow on trees...
Dude this video is actually really good video with great advice!! I think you are correct with what your trying to get out.
It's about time someone say that, I appreciate you guys and I enjoy the content. Ya'll are trying to make a living out of something you like and spread the love. Props for going out of your way to address this. ❤️
This is so true, RUclips in general is built in a way that you don't HAVE see the things you don't want to watch, so why would people go out of their way to just hate on someone? It makes no sense to me.
I'm glad that the issue is being brought up.
Some people legitimately hate, others are just trying to educate anyone who might be steered in the wrong direction (such as someone predisposed to gambling problems). There is a right and wrong way to go about and some do it the wrong way.
@@PathBeyondTheDark I agree completely.
It's just sad that more often than naught, it's the first case that happens
If there’s anyone we can all openly hate...
It’s the scumbags that steal Yugioh cards.
But in all seriousness, the community is better when everyone’s open to letting people be themselves and welcoming newbies. If you truly love the game then stop people other people down.
Is Yugituber drama really that bad? I really only watch one and occasionally team aps
Me
@@PathBeyondTheDark can’t speak as a creator but as someone who’s only gotten back into the TCG over the last 3 months I can tell you first hand that, at least at locals, the amount of people that just wanna take advantage of the fact that you don’t know much about the game or value of what you have is ridiculous. And people wanna put you down for not playing Meta or not fully understanding something and instead of teaching newbies and cultivating a bigger and stronger community they’re just inadvertently making the community smaller and smaller.
@@tokyosour4215 It's called "gatekeeping." And yes, I am all too familiar.
Ngl I, ashamedly, did take advantage of "kids" with little knowledge of the game back in the day on more then one occasion and feel bad about it in retrospect. But this seems to be a very common thing amongst even semi-competitive players and knowing it hasn't changed is disheartening. These types of players have one track minds: "if it helps me, it's good."
[Shameful "I hate modern YGO" plug] This is the mentality imo they have when it comes to things like Hand Traps, Omni Negates, etc that effectively "gatekeep" those who prefer interaction/playing the game in their games from entering the competitive scene.
@@tokyosour4215 I that had happened to me at a local cardshop in my country. A guy ask me to show him my deck of cards and when I did he laughed at my cards I just gotten back into yugioh aswell some of these clowns does make the game unbearable & YES I'M A CASUAL DUELIST😭. Greetings from trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
You got my support, I always appreciate an honest talk.
I really like this explanation of things. I just started doing openings on my channel, and this type of stuff helps me keep doing it. It is work and definitely a grind. I think people need to understand we all have our own opinions on cards, we might like a certain deck more than they do. We are just like them! 👏🏽👏🏽
This conversation could be applied to about everything these days
There's a car going off in the parking lot, oh it stopped. Anyway back to the video LOL! Great work Paul. I really like these videos man, they really are important to talk about especially considering we're all just people who enjoy YuGiOh and as Yugitubers we're just trying to grow the community. Making any sort of video no matter the type of channel takes time and effort. Just because you don't like someone's content doesn't mean that you should actively hate them. We as yugitubers (recognized and up-and-coming) are just trying to have fun and enjoy what we do so please don't hate on us for our work good or bad
I like how on this channel you guys upload lot and you always have some good ideas for videos
I think the cimooo thing is like a nfl draft analyst saying a certain player will not be good and then when the season comes he's a superstar but it happens we can't sometimes predict the outcome of things like how good a deck can be
Just here to say LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK. 😎🙌
This video format you've been doing lately, theyre the best! Thanks for the awesome content!
I love this kind of content. I haven't even played YuGiOh since GX days, but fundamentally everything you're saying about behavior translates into other demographics or areas as well, and it keeps the content weighted. You're my favorite of Team APS for this kind of articulation and demeanor. Keep it up!
Appreciate all the effort you guys put in and wish you well deserved success. You got me invested in the game again and I might take part in my first tournament this year. Thanks!
6:41 maybe that’s why RUclipsrs wanted to drop the “influencer” title for “content creators”
Thank you for this. I’d like to even expand on some things you said. Taking Sam as an example, he wasn’t my cup of tea for the reasons you mentioned, but, then my daughter got into the game (with help from you and your advise) and Sam became one of her favorites BECAUSE he was excited and memeing a lot. I then found myself watching Sam more with her and now I watch him as much as I watch you guys and the other YugiTubers I personally preferred. I even watch Sam without her now and comment and get engaged with his videos. It just took a different perspective for me to really appreciate his grind and his passion for the game. Sometimes, people just need a different perspective on things, too. He may not be your preference but he wouldn’t be acting insane if he didn’t have a true love and passion for this game and I have the utmost respect for him. Once Covid clears, I hope we can run into him at an event one day.
Same applies with Cimoooooooo. He was not my thing in the beginning. He reminded me of a guy I went to college with who I had a real distaste for, but then I realize the man wouldn’t be pouring himself into the game and making a life from it if he didn’t care deeply about it. Do I like all of his opinions? No way. But maybe he has some insight on things I don’t. His video about the penguins deck the other week ended up being completely legit. Every single yugituber tries to bring something to the table and those real folks just want everyone to love the game as much as they do. That old phrase “real recognizes real” gets a whole new meaning on RUclips and in this game.
Quick end cap: amazing point. Amazing conversation piece. We love and respect all our yugitubers in this house because none of you would be grinding like this if the game wasn’t your passion.
Please accept this novel of a comment for Pulitzer Prize consideration 😂
I'm no where close to a shop where locals happen. Having this content is such a blessing, I enjoy the duels, skits and discussions. Love you guys, keep it up!
People put too much stock in what random people on the internet say... who knew?
This issue has been around since basically the dawn of public forums, and is prevalent in any kind of fan-driven media. Remember when people saw early reviews of No Man's Sky or, more recently, Cyberpunk, then flipped out because they weren't god-tier-perfect scores? Reviewers, developers, streamers, YOU NAME IT, consistently get harassed with death threats, doxing, and all sorts of over the top bullshit, and why? Because people don't like it when people on the internet say things they disagree with.
I don't know that I have anything meaningful to add to the conversation, just puttin' it out there that this is a pretty widespread issue with people in general. I genuinely do not understand what drives people to give SO MUCH of a shit about what other people think. People get harassed, stalked, threatened in their ACTUAL, real lives over opinions they gave on the internet. It's fucking nuts... but then again, I can't really figure out a LOT of why people say and do the things they do these days, so... guess humans just gonna be crazy idiots, yeah?
I really appreciate all Yugitubers coming up with deck profiles.
That's a lot of work.
If the deck doesn't for me I just change some cards to make it work for me.
I really like watching you guys dueling at home, it's fun to watch.
Cimo: I don't think adamancipator will be very good
Zodiac: And i took that personally!
Funnily enough Paul, I feel this discussion doesn't even really apply to just yugitubers. I at least think it could really encompass all youtubers, artist, and other online personalities & influencers.
Don't hate the player, hate the game as some say.
Precisely.
Also allow me to follow that up with Konami is the greedy enemy here. We should all be trying to make the game better not fighting amongst ourselves while they get a pass in their comfy conference rooms.
To be fair Cimooo wasn’t too off on adimancipator as without block dragon they are prone to disruption and a glass cannon
1. Yes, you're right that yugitubing is harder than it looks. Buying product for pack pulling does eat up at funds, and if your're not careful you will be out of money.
2. I doubt the card price hype is just that, HYPE. After hype goes down it's just a matter of want or need. I think that maybe card prices are influenced through the mean of their sells.
3. End of the day, I just enjoy yugitubing because it's a new way to meet fellow players and share ideas. Met a few I don't agree with, but I don't hate them. Since this whole virus thing, yugitubing is actually how I got to keep up with this hobby,as well as keep trading. Thanks Paul for this video, and keep up the good work.
I think you guys, the Cali effect, and Cimo are the top three. But as far as playing yu-gi-oh, Cimo's progression series is one of the best things to come out of yugitubing in a long time. imo
I never had a problem with any yugituber until you brought up ma boi jerry beans man. Unsubbed, blocked
Im really glad you did this video and put in perspective...
We just starting out ourselves and it is hard youre right.. The editing making content for the channel
Maintaining for the channel figuring out how to make it big on youtube been an interesting journey so far
"If I tell you tomorrow that Jerry Beans Man is going to be a great card..."
Wait. When did it ever stop being a great card?
Day One Top Tier Vanilla.
I agree with you. I do think though that when you start being more popular on RUclips or Twitch and getting more followers that there is a a sort of celebrity effect on those RUclipsrs, or in this case YugiTubers, that comes from a lot of sources, such as hate or admiration. I feel, especially these days, when there is this sort of following that everyone understands there are social implications, even though some of those implications are unwanted. I believe it just comes with the territory (even if its not healthy in some case) whether you are a celebrity or RUclipsr or Twitch Streamer. I like these sorts of videos you produce because the give the insight that not most people can receive into what happens behind the scenes.
That's sounds like the lesson most communities needs, because it's not only YGO community, it happens on everywhere, like most people relay wayy too much on someone's else's opinions, beliefs, daily routines like they obey them, and that's very wrong by far.
People need to consider their thoughts and just stick to their own routine otherwise you ain't different then them
You couldn’t be more correct!! Even for the little guy this is a TON of work! Nobody is perfect and hindsight is 20/20 keep up the great content man love these little spats you’ve been doing great insight!
Great content, Paul :) I love these little discussions, it gives great insight and in these type of videos you speak out things I've had on my mind for a while. When it comes to leaving tubers alone, I truly believe the people who 'hate'/share negative thoughts are a minority that is just quite loud. At least that's what I hope. So I wanted to say great job, maybe to some degree in order to counter-act the hate but also just cause I think this is a very good discussion. Thank you :)
Team samurai just makes yugioh more hype man his energy extremely high and not toxic. You can tell he loves this game with his soul. You guys however give the game like a calm energy
It’s not just his energy that’s high........
@@craigbagnall4503 wdym
Yeah but you really shouldn't listen to his dexk profiles, from my experience every single deck he makes is "god tier" even when it's an unviable archtype like blue eyes
@@lukasr1166 Most of his subs are "casuals" who think legacy/anime support are always good/broken. He has to pander to them. His deck profiles are also a little shaky sometimes.
He's a net decker
I didnt know about the Cimo tier list drama cause I dont regularly watch his videos. For the most part his videos are good. The “dont buy this set” videos in my opinion are just eye rolling. I dont buy sealed but most people are wise about being sealed. Being more tact about the way he portrays this message could benefit him greatly. If Konami opens up more to content creators then maybe, just maybe, they might listen more to our own opinions about the game.
Before I open my mouth or type something I ask myself “If I say this will it do good in the world?”. If you don’t like a channel then unsub. We need to respect each other again.
I'm a Yugi Tuber. I just recording myself dueling on ygo omega or other simulators. I play ranked matches or duel my subscribers. I duel for fun and escape reality for a bit. All I can say is, "stay calm, keep dueling."
Its pretty much the same for every RUclipsr, they are just people with the drive to want to make content. It doesn't always mean you are an expert but you do enjoy the same things as the viewer.
Don't listen to anyone talking shit about the little man just trying to get by doing what he loves. Do your thing, though I doubt I had to say it.
I think what a lot of people have lost is the sensibility of conversation. If they can find that again, then I think people can have a healthy debate on the game.
It's no fun when you have an opinion and everyone and their grandmothers are coming at you because you have an opinion on a specific archetype, or of the like.
Yeah, I think that its very important to let the people know that celebrities can have opinions instead of being, like, the all-knowing oracle that gets every deck list build perfect and so on. I sometimes disagree with some tech choices myself.
I'm not going to lie, I went through a period in 2017 when I completely blocked all yugioh related content from my feed because it was getting me so worked up. I'm glad I discovered your team's content, though, since you guys do so many creative things. If it wasn't for that MTG vs yugioh video, I'd have never heard of your team.
Damn, so its pretty much anime community vs anime reviewwers
I can agree with this video for the most extent, but there is one thing that I will contest, while a Yugituber may not intentionally inflate the price of a card, there is a point that their platform and voice are heard much more in the YGO community. On top of that. Them exposing the cards and being hyped/hyping up the cards does have influence on the prices. I think Yugitubers do need to take responsibility that their voices and actions do have some effect either in the community or on the market, so I feel that also needs to be addressed.
This vid officially inspired me. Thanks home star
I also think that Gage/Nyhmnim is underrated, but that's mainly because he doesn't post videos on a constant bases, but I love his Sealed Only YGO and This Awful YGO Card was Good?! series.
While the Yugituber community is relatively small, I’m really thankful for the people in it to give us different takes on decks, archetypes, dueling, community, keeping Maxx C banned, and Top 10s.
Everyone has their own style, but I’m thankful for all of you.
EDIT: if someone says your deck or favorite card is ass, you have the option to play it or not. Remember: I still run Dustons in 2021, and idc how bad the deck is.
I'm new to Yu-Gi-Oh (I started playing with Duel Links when it launched because I don't have a lot of card shops near me) and I never realized how immature some people in the community are to take RUclipsrs' words as gospel. RUclips is definitely helpful for someone new to the game so they can discover what the meta is, how to build decks, etc. But at the end of the day everyone should play the cards they want, who cares!
guess iam a odd ball i just view you guys as people who enjoy opening packs and having fun with a card game
Well you do have a point. However the reason some us view channels is because is to get real advice from more experienced or more knowledgeable players. So you if say hey this card is good or bad more often than not I'm gonna take your word on it. Because you should know what your talking about because of all the experience you have.
I agree with Paul. Some people man, some people.
Talking about TeamSam, I've been lucky enough to run into him a few times, he seems like a nice enough guy, appreciative of his fans, and yeah, just a cool person. That being said, I'm not the biggest fan of his content, so I only watch a few videos here and there because I do want to support him, but his style of video is a bit much for me. And that's fine, that seems to be who he is. I didn't really have a point to this, just wanted to input my two cents on Sam, since you talked about him.
There's a useful term that's used in conversations surrounding youtube personalities called the parasocial relationship. Both the audience and the content creator need to be aware of the one-sided relationship between them. An audience member needs to know the healthy ways to engage with big online personalities and not expect to make them part of their social reality. As well, the content creator needs to be aware of the expectations they set in their content and to make clear their own boundaries with regards to the relationship between themselves and their audience.
When the yugioh community is mostly children and/or people who have the mentality of a child you’re bound to get a lot of misunderstanding and misinterpretation. These people think content creators live in a different dimension than them apparently.
I think some of the pedestal issues are a misconception that people have inside knowledge. Clearly if a content maker gets some product early they must have inside knowledge. Which isn't true video game companies send out review copies to various sites and companies to help promote and same goes for stuff like card games. What better way to promote your game especially since the cards are no longer anime linked. If you send a few boxes out early to people then you can get people's attention.
I've seen similar issues with other stuff like some MMOs, where players straight up said "it must be true because x said so" because the concept of prediction escapes some.
Great stuff. I like watching yugitubers. I don't have a lot of money. So to watch them open up packs, and find the great cards. I like that. I watch Team Samurai and Team APS. I haven't had a chance to watch that Cimo guy yet
Is it bad that I prefer this to the content to the OG channel? Don't get me wrong I like the fun stuff you post on there but I prefer more discussion based content. I prefer not needing to watch the video and sort of multi-task. I really love the discussions on here and hope it continues. This is not to be a criticism of the main channel but more just a preference as I sort of prefer more 'boring' content. Same with basketball, I will always listen to discussions over highlights or 2k videos.
To touch on this just a bit, some YugiTubers do speak about the Meta like it's a spoken truth, and so many flock to them for advice and thoughts. They speak confidently placing what they say into a realm of criticism if they are wrong, as they often wish to be right. Humility is often not an attribute of the normal YugiTuber (APS is an exception to this, Paul is VERY humble as is most of APS)
When you speak with confidence, it has an effect on others. In some of my psychology courses, we looked at Authority Figures, and what they often have in common are traits like, speaking with confidence, looking the part (an experimenter wore a lab coat, then didn't wear a lab coat, the experimenter was given more respect for looking the part than not.), as well as defending their points, people skills in how they approach others and talk to others, etc. Think in the realm of leadership as well.
Sorry for the rant, but that might explain why Cimo got roasted so hard on his prediction that went awry.
ya but I think those people need to work on their issues. If you value a stranger's opinion that much, goddamn who knows what a person could make you do in real life.
@@eleonarcrimson858 We had the capitol building stormed lol it's much easier than most think.
The time editing is true. I’ve only been making videos for a few months. It’s fun but takes a lot of time.
I feel like this issue of people being critical of people like Cimo is more a product of the community, who feel justified enough in their irritation at someone else’s opinion to type some excessively mean or backseat comment on RUclips or social media. I’m not saying this is exclusively a problem with the Yugioh community, as many other groups certainly exhibit this behavior, but it is striking to see so much of it on Yugioh videos.
RUclips is a influencer platform . Maybe watcher's should be more mindful and I agree also just like RUclipsr should also be more mindful on what they say. It works both ways . Some people do get triggered by false information so they voice their opinions on what they think. It's life.. this will never change. It comes with the territory. All in all great video we value your perspectives.. words are power
Serious question. Do you guys have videos of competitively going against each other in a match? I honestly would like to see how y’all are in a competitive match up
Yugitubers are just YGO Players making Videos like every other RUclipsr. They can make mistakes or may say something where you may disagree. But they put a lot of work and effort into their Videos, so keep this in mind before you start making hurtful Comments. That is the Message I got from this. Bringing Cimooooo up was a good example. He's just trying to make Content and even he can make mistakes as anybody else.
Farfa’s community though...
Lmao
I can't stand his content or the people that watch him. They all come across as ADHD kids on a sugar rush. However, just because I feel that way doesn't mean that ill go out of my way to make him or the people that watch him feel bad about how they act.
@@Realblack_m0nster When a majority of his community looks to alienate and harass others, you can bet your ass its ok to call em out

Wym. Jerry Beans Man has always been op
I do agree that any yugitubers opinion should be taken with a grain of salt but I don’t think you give yourself enough credit because people look up to you and when someone who has a large following says something, that has some weight to it, especially since you guys (yugitubers) have been doing this for so long but I do understand where your coming from. Much love to you guys 👍🏽
If a yugituber (your example of TeamSamurai) says "This variant is the best variant" and it turns out that it isn't or the fact its one of the worst variants in reality. They are essentially lying to the viewers. Especially to new yugioh players who would take their word as fact when they don't know any better. To make matters worse, unfortunately Yugitubers do affect the secondary market and can cause people to waste actual money on a deck that isn't at its best. They'd feel betrayed when finding out the hard way.
As for my dislikes of yugitubers, I personally don't like TeamSamurai because he claims everything is broken and everything is Tier 0 or Tier 1 when I know in reality, that isn't the case. I don't like Mkhol40 because he looked down on other players during Nekroz Format saying the Djinn lock was "bad" and that people playing it are "stupid" (paraphrasing). Then acted as if Snatch Steal coming off the list wouldn't do anything outside mirror matches. I know these were his opinions, but how he behaved about it and how he addressed it acting like he was better than everyone else, was the driving point for me to unsub to him. Of course I left it at that.
Sam says that every new deck or new support for older decks are Tier 0 because he gets paid by Konami, a total asskisser, and that's why I don't respect him.
@@chimeratcg07 Damn dude he must be hella rich right? these people....
@@chimeratcg07 I don't care if he gets paid by Konami tbh.
Love these vids you're like the most neutral tuber out there imo
I just miss seeing Rata upload.
Your mudkip plush is cool and i find your content interesting
All of the Yugitubers I watch are all amazing! 👍 Not sure who you are talking about.
I know it’s hard being a content creator. Filming and editing takes forever. Not that I’ve made any videos but I work in the camera industry so I have an idea of the challenges.
My biggest problem with yugitubers is just a problem in general for all of RUclips and twitch creators. I can't stand the over the top fake personalities that are put on. This is a big reason why channels like these are so important for the community. There are real people behind these videos
Ppl need to get a life, too many yugioh players are really toxic. Dropping r word like they're 12 year olds in the mid 2000s. If the player base was more welcoming and knew how to shower/ wear a mask correctly in shops the community would be much larger.
You need to get off of the toxic part of the community
My main problem with yugitubers is that they get a lot of products directly sent from konami to promote them in advance.
I have no problem with that per se but it happens way too often.
In the end they get all the "new shiny cards" that every single one wants to have essentially for free.
Yugioh is a very very expensive game and it seems like yugitubers always get a head start and ultimately may forget that the rest of us doesn't buy every single new release but would want to.
Every time a new special edition set comes out and i hear every yugituber begin their video with "yeah, konami just sent me these" i get a bit mad because i know i will never get these and they get it for free.
Don't get me wrong, i think most yugitubers are doing a great job and i enjoy most of the videos but i think ultimately yugitubers and the average player don't come from the same place to play the game.
I never see anyone on yt talking about the pricing of some products.
Pretty much applies to RUclips in general!
you right. At the end of the day anyone makes mistakes. Like these people are trying they best to put the content out for us. So I mean, Keep it up, guys! you guys are awesome!
I desire to be a wealthy yugituber and a music and a comedy 🌟. I hate the fact that teamsamuraiX1 ripped cards on more than 1 occasion. I actually felt the cards pain being an oracle and tarot divinator.
I wouldnt be shocked if someone clipped Paul saying those things about Sam and tries to make a big deal about it.... lmao
Anything in media production is hard work. As in working on video production before it’s not a cake walk like a lot of people make it out to be.
This game has so many man children it’s very sad. I feel like they don’t know understand how RUclips works and that people making videos aren’t gods and what they say is suppose to be what’s right, it’s just their opinion and they are human. Anyone who ever makes RUclips a career knows that you have to make videos in a steady fashion and have to make videos interesting. It’s not easy.
I actually prefer this channel to all the others I’ve come across. I don’t even play. Haven’t played since starter deck Joey but love this channel, on the flip side that team Sam guy is pretty much everything I see that’s wrong with the game.
Humble Yugi Man
I dont think its wrong to hold Yugitubers accountable for their influence but also those same people should hold themselves accountable for taking w.e Yugitubers say at face value. I seriously dont understand how so many people always seem to be mad at X Yugituber for making X card go up in price. They didnt make it go up in price, greedy people on the 2nd market made it go up in price. Thats something that will always happen. There are people influenced by money specifically becausr this game doesnt provide cash prices to tournament attendees.
Super open and informative video.. Keep up the great work.. Thanks for the vid
You are really well spoken
I really like this discussion videos man. Really cool
Im coming back to the game. Love MTG and YUGIOH
This is a big problem on the internet. RUclipsr, Streamer, Influencer, people are whorshipping these peoples in a very unhealthy way. Or wasting there time hating them for very dumb reason.
They only problem I have are when they become scalpers like jrb
I think my issue with Yugioh Youtubing isn't necessarily the RUclipsr themselves, it's the mob mentality, and for some reason viewers view them as some divine God and if someone says otherwise they're objectively wrong and stuff like that. I have been vocal about some popular yugioh RUclipsra that I don't watch, but I have my problems when I did watch them, and in my opinion some of the best Yugioh videos come from people who aren't Yugioh RUclipsrs, and I think there needs to be someone to make some change, and make some inventive content. Doesn't need to be artsy with editing, but come up with an original idea that a lot of people could be interested in
At the end of the day it's just a game, and there are some people out there that make it more than that. But I think you're touching on a deeper subject, which is that we (humanity) are lacking in respecting one another's free speech and not taking things personal to the point where you are treating others disrespectfully. The idea of saying you hate someone is pretty harsh, especially over an opinion they are entitled to, or slandering or bashing them instead of removing them from your life (like you said, you can block a channel you don't like for example). Yugitubers do put in a lot of work (I can attest to that), and everyone is different and unique, and that's okay. We all have to treat each other respectfully at the end of the day. It's okay to have a different opinion and disagree, even "argue" (respectfully), and still walk away with mutual respect for your fellow human being
