This is currently one of the best series on Yu-Gi-Oh RUclips right now. Highlight of the week whenever it gets uploaded. Love the journalism at the end too, great addition
Awesome to see that you actually interviewed people who play the format to get more insight about it! Dump Truck is one of the best DM Era format players playing right now so he's a great source for this. This was a great match to show off for this format, sad I wasn't able to win this one, but Lollo played this one great so I can't be too upset!
This is one of the best videos youve done imo because of the little interview at the end. These OG formats are a major part of my childhood and i feel that modern players dont respect or care about the origins or history of yugioh because the game is so different. Its really cool to be reminded of what was and see how people have refined things looking back, please keep this series up!
Duuuuuude I am just in fuckiiing loooove with thiiiiiiis nooo joke im ur number one supporter for this series! its pure love soul healing after the hell i saw on cimo's channel dude you deserve a medal* and be invited to the white house this is pure art almost wanna cry thank you SO FREAKING MUCH
Great video! Everyone who plays these formats is super excited about this series, and the enthusiastic comments from users I don't recognize show that you're really spreading the word to a new audience. Thanks very much for featuring our interview in such detail; I'm happy to keep helping out in any capacity 🫡
bad wording , “tier 0” is kinda a bad term to use in yugioh. it should be Best deck, 2nd best deck, 3rd best deck, etc etc (using tiers is just easiest for causals to understand)
You beat me to it, brother.I literally hopped in the comments to say the exact same thing.Fuck off outta here with all that Meta trash.These are the duals we want to see
"Tomato Control" is kinda its own deck here but as witch/sangan go to 1 and busted limited cards get introduced it morphs into a "good stuff" list. The Format Library auto-labeler will still call it "Tomato Control" and often mislabels decks as it, so take the wheels in DM formats with a pile of salt.
even the “tomato control” deck is really just a pile of good cards jajajaja , all the deck names until formats down the line are just random names it feels like
0:55 ~ actually that graph is due to a bot error which led to Tomato Ctrl and Recruiter Ctrl being conflated, the latter is the actual second most popular in Treasure after Tomato Ctrl and before Germ Burn. basically Recruiter Ctrl is the label we have rn for all decks that play a second Recruiter engine besides Tomatoes & friends, with both Rat Recruiter and Grizzly Recruiter having won tournaments before. tldr; most tourney-winning decks: Tomato > Recruiter > Burn PS. good news tho, bot error should be fixed now for formats to come! 😬🤌
so i saw the recruiter control stuff but i just assumed it was still tomato control but with a added “engine” into it , naming these decks in these old formats is really hard since a lot of them use the same cards then like 3-5 different cards to make it a “new deck” jajajaja
"There aren't really too many sacky cards" gtfo. Watch the games. The player that used painful choice + confiscation ended up winning the game. Being able to set up your gy so early and knowing what you opponent has, again, so early into the game is stupidly strong. The opponent couldn't even recovered from that lmaooo
Mechanical chaser pronunciation was the most insane thing I’ve ever heard.

It's funny to think that in the old times Mashaolinchaochaser was an expensive card
Hahahahahahahahahhahh

3:14 There is no way DB Grinder can't say the word mechanical.
fake word
I was speechless after you pronouncing mechanical chaser…
timestamp is 3:14 🤦🤣
i never played with this cards (well i have but if i don’t hear others pronounce them then it’s hard for me to realize what word it is)
@@TheDBGrindersound it out
@@TheDBGrinderwe all love u for this ❤️
16:00 ~ this segment really was a pleasant surprise to me, gj Grinder + Dump! ☺👍

Counting days until you become The GOAT Format Grinder
Really like seeing competitve matches from these old lesser known formats
keep up the good content
”Almost looks like it’s tier zero”
*shows a chart that looks like 90% representation*
lol, that's due to a bot error tho, see my top-level comment
bad wording , “tier 0” is kinda a bad term to use in yugioh. it should be Best deck, 2nd best deck, 3rd best deck, etc etc (using tiers is just easiest for causals to understand)
Finally, duels people, actually want to see
You beat me to it, brother.I literally hopped in the comments to say the exact same thing.Fuck off outta here with all that Meta trash.These are the duals we want to see
Wait, are you telling me you’re not PUMPED for the 500th Ryzeal upload?!
That's why db grinder is my goat
He upload retro formats videos that arent goat or edison
there is no way u use discord on light mode, u demon
dark mode hurts my eyes SO MUCH
The Yugiboomer in me loves this.
Retro format vids are so fun
loved the q&a, keep up the good content dbgrinder
where can i play all this format tournaments lol
check out the discord i linked
"Tomato Control" is kinda its own deck here but as witch/sangan go to 1 and busted limited cards get introduced it morphs into a "good stuff" list.

trying to fix the mislabeling issue, see my top-level comment
@@TheDBGrinder everytime you see "tomato control" in FL consider it as "standard beatdown" or "good stuff" decks. tomato is controlling shit
Bro if you posted more videos like this your channel would explode
i don’t wanna post TOO much of this stuff cause i’m a competitive player and this stuff is mainly casual
great video dbg!!! love the investigative journalism
Ayo DBgrinder journalist arc???
ON THE COME UP ⬆️
Segement at 16:00 is goated
FINALLY
REAL YUGIOH
Chaos Imperator FTK Format
Nice
that would be Chaos Format (2004), if he goes through formats step by step at a weekly rate he will be there by February!
not quite lol
God Emperor Bsocks
15:32 ? why doesnt crash and fissure work
If he did that he would have lost because he would have passed on an empty field vs the monster i would search with witch
@@Fantasyst88 ah i c thanks, it doesnt works means it doesn't help with the game state, i thought he just meant it doesn't work at all lol
Ofc this mf got Discord on light mode🌝
dark mode is ACTUALLY unusable
posting the real duels now
Yeah fuck meta duals
Tomatoe vs Tomahto
I normal summon "Mashellinchallchaser"
The what chaser
I guess there is a demand for this?
yeah i’m going through all the formats 1 week at a time
0:55 ~ actually that graph is due to a bot error which led to Tomato Ctrl and Recruiter Ctrl being conflated, the latter is the actual second most popular in Treasure after Tomato Ctrl and before Germ Burn.
basically Recruiter Ctrl is the label we have rn for all decks that play a second Recruiter engine besides Tomatoes & friends, with both Rat Recruiter and Grizzly Recruiter having won tournaments before.
tldr; most tourney-winning decks: Tomato > Recruiter > Burn
PS. good news tho, bot error should be fixed now for formats to come! 😬🤌
so i saw the recruiter control stuff but i just assumed it was still tomato control but with a added “engine” into it , naming these decks in these old formats is really hard since a lot of them use the same cards then like 3-5 different cards to make it a “new deck” jajajaja
yeah uhm, even Burn plays Tomato Sangan Witch Cannon just as well, lol
"There aren't really too many sacky cards" gtfo. Watch the games. The player that used painful choice + confiscation ended up winning the game. Being able to set up your gy so early and knowing what you opponent has, again, so early into the game is stupidly strong. The opponent couldn't even recovered from that lmaooo
you can easily comeback from those games , it’s not like edison where you deck devi then return your opponent into the side events
sadge, no Burn vs Tomato/Recruiter/other, that's my favorite matchup 🥲
Questions were a great idea, really interesting
