holy moly. After more than 10 years of playing ygo I just noticed the bubble in the art of Abyss-Sphere has a mermaid trapped inside it. Freaked me out.
It's always cool for me to see this era of the game being played. I stopped playing at the start of Xyz and came back right before Links became a thing in the TCG, so I love seeing stuff from that era.
Man I love this Mermail era. A bit later when Neptabyss, the Atlantean Prince was announced in the OCG I even theorized a consistent mermail OTK version that was so much fun to play and combo with. sadly that card came way too late to the TCG imho
I still think Leo is an ok card today. It’s very awkward to out and 3100 attack is just big 😂 This was fun watch; throwback. Didn’t play the game then so nice to see the mechanics of mermail
Mermail was the first “meta” deck I made, I remember using 3 Whale and all the other awful names (nose, mander, dine, hilde) before I used any deck profiles lol
I miss formats like these. The games were so back and forth and simpler lines/combos. Now we have decks like tearlaments having players go to chain links 6 or higher…
Absolute banger of a format and match. Need more of these
So much nostalgia, me and my friend used to play Mermail mirrors all the time back in 2013-2014. I love this

Ain't no way

Marcus still counts as an Illinois player in my heart

ive used to top ycs barcelona and ycs lille with mermail! awesome experience, but i liked dragon ruler between more.
Soul Charge is as toxic as ever, but still love this format. Always down for this!
One of the best formats

We we're happy and didnt notice
Mermail is one of the first combo decks to exist.
2014 best era mermail best deck!!! there are like 15 diff decks. I wish locals do tournaments of this era 😢😢
11:07 Sorry Grinder but Chicagoland still claims him!
Please more 2011-2015 format content
How come red didnt pay the cost for pike before warning?
Warning negates the summon. Pike effect is on summon.
@@tjpots9133 was pike specialed? I guess thats what i was confused about
Isn't there a dark world ftk in this format?
maybe , but the only good dark world ftk was in 2018
That was a really good game
The superior mirror match
@TheDBGrinder1 wait what?
they call it "HAT format" but nobody is ever playing "HAT"
Soul Charge might be the stupidest card ever printed

… on your turn 😂😂😂
First
2nd
I love this format. HAT is when I got back into the game, so remember it fondly.
