Ryan is one of the most brilliant minds on this game. Had to play him THRICE in world championships and i can say that: he never misses anything. One of the greatest of our time.
I Would also like to point out that of the 2017 Dragon Duel world championship, all the top4 players are still playing and doing VERY well. Ryan, me, Charley Futch and Eric Topel (who just made top8 in Raleigh) are the most stacked topcut of a dragon duel event of all times and i will defend my point until the end of times.
Great video, always good to hear Ryan!
29:00 edit: Ryan is not the only player to do so! Rafael Jose is a brazilian player and went for TCG in 2017, Duel Links in 2018-2019 and Master Duel 2023!
MY BAD
I know zeeta personally (rafael jose), he's definitely one of the goats
@@PhyYuGiOh Also we had a 12 year old national champion before the days of dragon duels back in 2006
He's not brilliant. Because he doesn't innovate. He immulates. 😅😅😅😅
If he opens without any interruptions will the duelist that ftks him be considered the best duelist
"The Rise of Cristian Urena" sounds like a nice title for a video! Back to back solo champ, 2 time 3v3 champ, and remote duel champ. Man does it all.
But there is no video material 😂😂😂😂
Oh god yes
Watching Ryan win complex games with control decks is one of the highlights of competitive Yugioh. Great video & I wish him luck at WCS 2024!
I did NOT expect to see myself in this video at 20:10
Fun fact: At YCS Niagara Falls 2022 I asked Ryan what he thought about Exosister and he replied, "this deck REALLY sucks"
mostly due to that statement, I took it to the next YCS (Minneapolis) without testing or even really reading my cards and carried on the legacy LOL
I like how you said “his name was Ryan Yu” as if he goes by like Blake or something now
formerly ryan who currently ryan yu am i right guys
@@theletterkei Ryan Yu? Then who am I!
You truly do make the best documentary content in the Yu-Gi-Oh community. Keep up the good work!
Another great video, thanks for making these. As the guy who does most of the updates on the competitive wiki pages, I'm always happy to see little screenshots make it into these types of videos lol.
One thing I wanted to add: At 38:26, you say that he qualified for 2024 Worlds by competing in 2023. I assume you just misspoke there, he qualified by winning the Duelist Cup in December. The only team that qualified directly was Josh's team. Also, Ryan said he's bringing Jesse and Ray again so we could get the rematch 😊
Hey Scorch. First of all, the work you do makes creating these videos ten times easier. My discord is Phycasts if you ever want to reach out, thank you so much for what you do.
I realized after I uploaded. Editing turns my brain to sludge
🙃
At 29:07 the information is not 100%. There is also a Brazilian player named Zeeta that went to worlds in 3 different categories. He went to worlds for the TCG in 2017, for Duel Links in 2018 and 2019 and for Master Duel in Team Latam in 2023. Otherwise great video Ryan is the goat such a nice guy
Near the end of the video he is also wrong about the 2024 World Cup invitation. Ryan team was not invited, only the winners. Also the chess comparison is wrong, Magnus has 85% win rate in online tournaments.
Ryan yu is a very polite person. I met him once and said hi and he said hi back to me.
Hi.
My 🐐, one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Truly deserves the world
Amazing Video! really enjoyed it, btw 29:00 actually Rafael Rodrigues (Zeeta) has also participated in the world championship in three different divisions, 2017 TCG 2018/2019 DL and 2023 MD
Hey Garret I once asked you if you could make a video about the one time World Chalice won a YCS in 2018. So I wanted to ask you again since I and a lot of other people would be really interested in knowing what happened at that YCS that freaking World Chalice won the entire thing. And have you already looked into the topic at all in the meantime?
Would be nice if you could give me an answer!
And please keep up your amazing work!
These videos are insane quality and superb storytelling, keep up the good work!!
Amazing video, truly inspiring. Those players deserve to have their achievements told, and i'm happy you did it with such quality.
This video is mad good, thanks for your work and big up to Ryan Yu and his friend's, those dudes are insanely talented at their craft. A real inspiration to people like me who dreams of success within the game (though I would need to actually attend tournaments first lmao)
Honestly, as a 14 yr old kid who’s been playing this game since 4th grade, I really wish my parents supported my hobby. I genuinely think if my parents took my hobby seriously I could probably top a YCS with enough practice and a decent deck.
Not everyone is dealt the same hand, its how you play with said hand that matters. Blaming wont change anything
start topping db events
My parents have thrown away every semi competent deck I’ve ever made, probably totaling over $1000
@@panda_expewess8714 and why did they do that?
I honest to god have no clue… they just don’t want me to play the game
I like Ryan. He could have won more YCSes if he played META decks but stuck to his guns and played Rouge. No BS. Just straight skill.
There is a makeup deck?
Gucci Gucci ya ya, Ga Ga
Isn't rouge a color
Dude bring Chain Burn to World when he was 12 years old are truly insane
Im 19 and unfortunately despite playing since 2013 I had very little clue about the competitive scene till 2020. I would’ve loved the chance to do Dragon Duels or play at this higher level but I just didn’t know this whole other world outside existed until my high school years (wow i feel old). Im still learning and trying to be the best I can but it’s been hard juggling the cost of the game and finding time to make even locals sometimes. But I have been fortunate enough to attend YCS Indianapolis 2023 and NAWQC 2022 and while I didn’t go to attend the main tournament it was just the fact I was able to go with one of my best friends (who I met thru YGO) and even meet pro players and yugitubers was awesome to me.
(Yes I copied this from a reply I made but idc :p)
I've been a fan of this kid ever since he was playing Trickstar burn in Dragon Duel events. He's obviously smart as a whip and highly devoted to his craft.
your content is the only yugioh content i can stand to watch these days. Truly a cut above the rest
“Sweetie, the summoning salt of yugioh uploaded again”
Ryan is the goat, played him at locals a lot when we were kids and its so sick that he's still playing and doing so well
Your masterful storytelling is incredible. One of the best channels ever.
im having a great time and im learning a lot with this vid, thanks man
The qulaity and actual content of these videos are phenomenal
This is by far the best ygo channel/Content. I feel like you could watch this without being a active player.
Banger video as always man, keep up the great work!
every video of yours is incredibly good,
keep up the good work
Oh man i was about to comment requesting for ryan yu vid and you delivered regardless, based
I remember when he reignited the sky striker flame with the online win in synchro eldlich/adamancipator meta, one of the grossest 2 deck metas we ever had.
Incredible video! Ryan is amazing at the game. A friend of mine, who is a pretty incredible player in his own right, has gone to many locals and regionals against him, and gotten slaughtered most times.
The one nitpick I had is when you mentioned Jesse Kotton being a one trick with Tearlament. Jesse has been a titan for a long time, it wasn't just Tear that ascended him to god status.
How have I just found out about this chanel. This was incredible
You know this kids a main charecter with YU in his last name. Like every protagonist in the anime’s all start with Yu
Ryan didn't play a single game with his favorite lab deck in Masterduel worlds finals, and got punished by Maxx C 😢
shoutout brian chen shoutout ryan yu striker goats
The mat at the beginning was really cool I liked it a lot!
What a great video! Thanks for the work.
I’m always excited when I see a new Garret video drop!!!
Hope he wins love this kid ❤
He’s the Elizabeth Harmon on YGO. Hearing about his Mum booking Nats for him is amazing! I remember watching True Draco TCG finals, being like, who cares semi of DD was ABC and chain burn. The Canadians are built different. How are they allowed to have Ryan, Jesse and Pacawacacacacaca
bro is doing a combination of frontflips and backflips on it 💀
I mean you cant act like Ryan Yu isn’t super talented
Ryan may have moved away from sky striker but he is one of the reasons I’m playing the deck till this date. Learned a lot from him.
“WELCOME TO GRAND FINALS” lmaooo I was waiting for it every time 😂
All love to ryan but someone give that man a new mic
is that a 3kliksphilip reference??
nice documentary man, keep it going!!
Not all draws in chess are equal - sometimes, all you need to win the match is to draw the game.
what do you mean plastic bag, i used a rubberband for my deck and put it in my pocket
Your videos are the best
Ryan Yu is the living Yugi Muto. GOAT
Love him since his Chain Burn Win 2017
If I’m not mistaken, the youngest National Champion was Austin Kulman at 11 years old right? That record might never be broken
Ryan is the most clever player in the world, maybe not the best strictly speaking, but no one has that mind.
Small correction: in 2006 the us National Championship was famously won by a 14 year old.
Hey i love your videos i noticed when i try to look for your videos with keywords i couldnt find them. I forgot your channel name and kept looking stuff up like ycs breakdown,best yugioh players explained,yu gi oh documentary, i dont know how easy it is too add key words to your videos but it might help for the search results
Ryan Yu is the GOAT
While I agree Ryan is incredible. I feel the chess analogy with magnus doesnt translate quite as well. Id ague Ryan is better than magnus because in chess everyone is on equal footing. Ryan is playing with the chance to brick or deal with a custom hand. If we gave ryan or yugioh players an Elo score I think Ryan would be well above grandmaster level
underrated channel
Sky striker -- check GY for 20 mins
Garret you are the best at what you do in the TCG community
Thank you
That magnus comparison as in top level chess draws are super common and can't be accounted for in yugi. Apples to oranges man.
9:25 YCS Pasadena jumpscare/flashbacks
Is there no other word for Zugzwang?
He was an inspiration to play burn competitively during 2018, made too 32 in my country 3 times lol, would love to watch him play burn again, sometimes I go and watch that world's final
I’m sure it’s already in the oven but you gotta make a video for our boy Paulie Aronson and the worlds “curse” of America never winning worlds.
Im from Chicago and i missed this championship for a card game i never played. You make it interesting tho
When Hansel showed up looking like the Prototype 3 protagonist I instantly was rooting for Ryan 😂
This is funny, but i have Jinzo in my side deck just to out troll the trolls. Our match would be legendary
Chain burn never dies baby
Great video however Austin oilman is the youngest national champion, he won 2006 nationals at age 11
The goat
38:50 that's not a fair comparison, a win in Chess is worth way more because of how easy for games to end on a draw, saying every 2 draws split into a win and a loss might as well be every draw is a loss.
best to ever do it (soon)
BETTER TITLE TBH. SORRY
Who was that hooded guy in the intro who got down from the stage? :o
Amazing vid as always!!!😊
Babe wake up garret dropped a 40 minutes video on ryan
I actually miss lockdown. Weird to say but im good at finding ways to fill time
The youngest US National Champion was Austin Kulman at 11 in 2006
I definitely misspoke when I said National Champion, however, in the age of the NAWCQ Ryan Yu would have been the youngest.
That is not to discount that major moment in Yu-Gi-Oh history, mostly because I take my data from the YGO wiki, which is good but didn't have the all-time: yugioh.fandom.com/wiki/North_American_Championship
However, I shouldn't be splitting hairs over technicalities, because I knew of Austin, but not by name and details. Still new and learning.
Hater
The hair cant lie
😂😂😂 I can't win I'm gon quit 😂
Next do Brian Chen
00:52-00:56 Austin Kulman has left the chat
"there are many sky striker apologists out there"
and every single one spammed the deck to the point where you knew exactly what kinda boring duel you were gonna play.
Im one of the few that dont think sky striker needed to get nerfed that hard. even though i didnt play it. But im glad it did. Because i stopped having to play agianst one of the most boring meta decks in yugioh history.
If you're doing math analogies, PLEASE make it correct.
Stating that he might be better than Magnus Carlsen and IGNORING statistical significance (even tho you hinted at it) is neither correct nor elegant.
yea Magnus has been at the top of the rating ladder for over 10 years and is a 5 time world champion. Nobody in the history of yugioh even comes close to that, let alone comparing Ryan to Magnus.
Ryan didn't deserve a format with Rivalry and Spell Smell at 3
The chess comparison at the end is so wrong 😂 Chess has more draws, and player stats are classified into different categories. In chess, players can agree to draw as part of the strategy to win a tournament, so the win rate is not a good indicator. He is comparing two fundamentally different sets of information:
Magnus Carlsen overall stats are extremely insane. He has a 65% win rate, but what matters is that he has a 15% game loss rate!
If Ryan win rate in a master duel cup was 65%, Magnus online win rate is 85% with 0 loses. There is no comparison to make here. Magnus is just that good.
Locking zones is the least fun way to play Yu-Gi-Oh
Dude literally loses because of broken floodgates, if thats the only thing stopping you, you are really good to go ^^
God, seeing that swordsoul player flip anti spell and rivalry after making their board makes me remember why people dont like this game
Fun vid to watch, but the audio levels are whack.
more like Ryan's mic is terrible
Not talking about Ryan's mic at all.
Thought dude died because he said “was” lol
US national champion... He is Canadian lol
God, the guy popping off at 26:08 after winning with Kashtira zone lockout is so toxic. Like, man won with literally the lamest format meta deck to ever exist and then pops off. xD
What a quitter tho 😂
Waifu > Meta
🤍🖤💜🎉
The video was very well put together up until the last moments where you tried to compare Ryan Yu's record with Magnus's. Like, while Ryan Yu is one of the best yugioh players atm and still very young, you just can't compare his success to Magnus's. Magnus is a 5 time world champion with countless other ''premier event'' wins and has been at the top of FIDE's rating for over 10 years. It's purrely an insult to Magnus's performance.
Oh no, do you think magnus is gonna be okay? Poor guy only makes millions playing an intellectually inferior game, is he gonna make it? 😢
hellow
"Next Great Player" as if he hasn't been a great player for awhile already. Not many people come out of Dragon Duels with a world championship title
