I would like to say that Cimo just got everything this duel but this is Gravekeepers, they always got everything they need
Except me in Duel Links.
10 duels. 3 copies of Necrovalley. Only one starting hand with it. Admittedly I won that duel but you know what happened in the others
@@monkey_blu i know how that feels and we play 20 card decks at minimum
Gravekeeper's are poopie.
My favorite deck: Necrovalley, the cards that search for Necrovalley, and the cards that search the cards that search Necrovalley, and the cards that protect it.
at least it makes sense thematically
Respect necrovalley. Very cool and appropriate thematically. Unlike its bastard child mystic mine, you can actually play the fucking game.
@@MackRangerPower necrovalley is shit, no respect unless it starts doing something smh
@@ghetoknight7801 It fucked up Tear, which is enough for me.
Naturia Beast could not be summoned and Stardust was special summoned the same turn when duality was activated.
Beside this, good games
Naturia Beast also couldn't be summoned in game one either because dandy tokens are wind and not earth. People do forget this often
There should be a series pointing out every illegal play that happens in the series and isn't caught.
@@Greg501- hi there! Sounds like you have r heard of this series which is exactly what you described: th-cam.com/video/TCoOn3jfDIk/w-d-xo.html
@@DeltaShinyZeta Thanks
@@Greg501- that's what we need! 🤩
Im not going to lie, this series has made me a little sad that I was on hiatus during the 5d's era. It's like a happy medium between old school grindy yugioh and modern explosive yugioh.
It seems like it's a really friendly era to go back to if you want to buy physical cards now, too. A bunch of the big cards at the time like Pot of Duality and the Signer Dragons have become really easy to get with various reprints over time.
Yep, this was the time I played and liked yugioh a lot...(using simulators, though, but still lots of fun). Then it came pendulums...O found their mechanics ugly...then performapals and performages became way too consistent; I quit, waiting for them to het hit by banlists, but then we got zodiacs I quit like forever...nowadays the game looks nuts...when I watch replays it looks like everything is decided on the first and second turn
Edison format may be your jam
SHARE IF YOU PLAY
Actually love this era of Gravekeepers with Duality, Starlight Road, etc. Such a good grind game.
I tottally get that, though i do think starlight is a bit of a “win harder” card. there was something fun about top decking a mass destruction card and evening a one sided field. as well as the person with the advantage having to consider keeping some stuff in hand as a back up.
I haven't seen Joseph break this hard since he was duoed, sentried twice, and confiscated followed by cimoooo getting a pot of greed in the beginning of the series.
What video was that again? I think I need to rewatch it.
@@Rashinnu Magic Ruler
@@DeathAlchemist Thank you.
@@Rashinnu np
I just realised now that were done with 2010 Xyzs aren't that far away now, which is kinda rad.
Also I think this is the first time we've seen new Synchros in this series since like Hidden Arsenal 1
Is that how “Xyz” is pluralized? I honestly don’t know. I usually just pluralize the “monster” “material” or “summon” that comes after.
@@pyrotempestwing honestly it's more to distinguish it from the XYZ Dragon Cannon, as it's pronounced ex ceez or exceed, but it's probably more just my own personal preference
@S V nope, it’s said “ex why zed”, anything else would be uncivilised, and frankly, stupid
@S V salty
@S V you’re right. It’s not up to me to decide. That doesn’t change the fact that I’m right.
In the History of Yu-Gi-Oh, I don't think I've ever seen Joseph get smashed that badly.
He Just assumed the position
@@inuclearpickle8628 Yeah, Alex pretty much bent him over the table with Gravekeepers.
@@NickWuebker it really makes you question how that one field spell wasn’t just banned and left to rot on the list but kept being changed
@@inuclearpickle8628 I think Necrovalley was limited for a time, but I could be wrong on that.
@@NickWuebker still looking at this episode the card is oppressive as all hell
32:05 and that is literally how games went at that time. Straight up.
Ironically, 100% in decimal form is 1, which is odd. CHETS from before the game even starts. I expect better from you Mr. BlueTron.
Yea i was thinking mbt could either say its 1 or 100, depending on what cimoo calls
I dont think quickdraw has had a single good showing in the entire series lmao
That's combo decks for you. Even in the modern format, it's not necessarily that a deck like drytron is less consistent than the other decks, but their weaker hands tend to be much weaker than comparable hands of other decks.
Necrovalley decks are so fascinating. This Gravekeeper deck in particular was pretty cool
I play Necrovalley in Anti Meta Boarder Stun, and it is absolutely amazing!
Almost as fascinating as mystic mine decks
I've also played Mystic Mine in a variety of ways. It's a pretty good card to say the least.
@@jamieclifton785 You should stop playing yugioh
As someone who played Gravekeeper's when I played the game this brought joy to my heart.
You can't summon Stardust Dragon after the activation of Duality Cimo.
"Screw the rules! It's my channel!"- Cimo Kaiba
Joseph also summoned Naturia Beast with a wind monster when it says it can only be summoned w earth monsters
@@austinwestfall8018 it is not chating if both cheat!
@@ianr.navahuber2195 I mean misplays happen on both ends, the other didn’t say anything so it wasn’t too important to either of them
Who else scrolled down the comments after that misplay? XD
The score is now
Cimo: 30
MBT: 28
And Cimo sends Joseph to his grave and keeps him there
The summon of stardust probably didn’t change anything. Mbt was getting rinsed either way
that may be true but is still a massive oversight
I don't think you can activate Starlight Road if you can't SS Stardust, meaning Cimo would have gotten his back row cleared. So it did, in fact, matter.
@@aliesterus1.023 Starlight Road says "you can" so the summon of Stardust is optional.
@@aliesterus1.023 it’s a “then, you can” effect. The summon is optional. But i get where you’re coming from. If it wasn’t optional then it woulda been a huge game changer for sure.
@@aliesterus1.023 read the "an if you do" conjunction
GKs are the only archetype in Yugioh that every really resonated with me so I've been super pumped for this episode
Share if you play
Ew
MonkeW
GK can be fun to play, your opponent will hate you though.
I'm rather spiteful of them because my brother had a friend that generally played it and it is not a fun deck to play against, though I did have fun once when I summoned Obelisk against him and he just had no outs because of Obelisk being immune to targeting effects :P
The nostalgia for me with this episode is unreal. I was playing GKs during this time period. When Recruiter was revealed, my excitement was immeasurable. So much fun! For me, at least. My varient played Royal Decree. If I got Necrovalley and RD on turn one, I basically made them scoop.
Yeah weirdly this episode made me nostalgic with the Gravekeepers even though I never played them. My cousins played Gravekeepers around this time which brings back memories.
I stopped playing around this time shortly after I pulled a Duality and then traded it off to a local shop for a game console. Then it got reprinted in a tin and the price fell through the floor like a month later. 🤣
Game is just so ridiculous with it's price points that I lost interest. Fun to watch though, so many memories of this era.
Great to see them both laugh hysterically! Hadn't seen that since the early show where Cimo predicted MBT's 1 turn kill.
0:59 MBT's deck 3:46 Cimoooooo's Deck
9:46 Game 1 begins 23:00 Game 2 30:53 Game 3 for fun 31:59 this is gonna appear in the highlights of the year, isn't it?
33:!4 Game 4 for fun ? begins 42:52 MBT finally reacts to "talk dirty to me MBT"
MBT: "Effect Veiler was the first really good hand trap"
Kalut and Honest: "Am I a joke to you?"
It's hilarious how Starstrike Blast just had nothing but bangers for it's card set. Anytime you look for an older card that's been overlooked in some form, you see STBL in the corner of the art. Freaking love that about this set.
This episode gave me PTSD from this era. Gravekeepers absolutely FLOODED the locals scene with how easily accesible it was to make (sans the Duality before reprints). And with how frequent of a rogue deck GK's were throughout the early 2010's, I've got a sinking feeling that we are gonna see more of them.
-Ryu
31:30 and onward better make it into the best of video at the end of this year.
The moment of a face palm when cimo summoned stardust dragon although he activated duality 🤣🤣🤣🤣
31:54 Maximilian Pegesus: "The duel is over. MBT's spirit is broken. He's lost the will to fight on"
SHARE. IF. YOU. PLAY.
Tal der Toten POG
YERBANNED
Holy Shit Game 3 was insane like wow, that was amazing !!!
Is this a new record for Joseph admitting defeat? His previous record was the Magic Ruler episode.
This era of GKs was a blast. I used to tech Malefic Cyber End Dragon too for the 4k body 😂
P. S. At this time the necrovalley rulings allowed cards like Sangan and plaguespreader to still active in grave 🤣
That wasn't a tech buddy that was meta lol
@@robertoguzman7619 yea all the top lists main decked multiple diff Malefics KAPPA. Where they at tho 👀
What eratta stopped Sangan from activating, to my knowledge Necro Never stopped GY effects from activating, just negated any effects that would Move cards from the GY anywhere else, and for a time which I think is Still the current Errata being also negating attribute changes in the Gy
Cimo actually got the number right, because 100%=1, which is an odd number.
This is by far the best episode yet. Actually laughed so loud I woke up my kid.
This episode makes me so happy. Gravekeepers were the first deck I played and one of my favorite decks. Being a budget deck is why I played it. I had a lot of these cards as a kid from the Goat format days and just updated it.
Wait what is this share if you play gravekeepers meme? I've honestly never heard this before lol
It has been awhike so I'll probably have some wrong details but I believe it was from an online 3v3 tournament where MBT, Farfa, and Gage(maybe?) played in. Someone brought Gravekeepers (really just Dragoon-Necrovalley turbo). Either someone in the chat, or MBT, or Farfa started the whole "share if you play gravekeepers"
@@tzarecehle979 the third member of the 3v3 team was Don Juan not Gage. Joseph duel against gk with bird up and it was a really good game 3.
Im so excited for next episode six samurai is one of my favorite decks ever and its entirely because of it's synchro era support
The Gravekeeper deck has a special place for me. One of my friends in High School loved to play Gravekeepers, and had a fully blinged out version of the deck that he'd play even deep into XYZ era. Many memories of just how frustrating Necrovalley was to deal with.
Cimo's face when he activated the first Royal Tribute, like he just realised he ruined his entire friendship with MBT, was freaking gold lmao
19:37
Fluff Tokens are wind, so you can't use them for Nat Beast
Also Stele shouldn't work under the "current" erratum of Necrovalley, because it says "can't be negated by NV", but NV says that cards in the graveyard can't be affected.
Unless Stele said something else at the time
Remember when future Cimo or the guest would correct the mistake made
It could be something like warrior of Atlantis, which shouldn’t be able to search A Legendary Ocean (which is always treated as umi), but still can due to rulings.
Some cards work in ways that were unrelated to the words on the cards. Somehow I think Stele works under Necrovalley.
Necrovalley: "Negate any effect that moves a card to a different place"
Stelle: "this effect cannot be negated by the effect of 'necrovalley'"
I'm 99% sure it was ruled that Steele just worked even though it technically shouldn't
Really good episode. Something about MBT suffering is really, really funny.
Oh man, early 2011 was a great period for me
Six samurai was my first deck I ever got, thanks to some leftover cards my cousin gave me from his Strike of Neos collection
When stardust overdrive released, I think I spent all my allowance trying to get some earthbound immortal cards, and I ended up with 3 copies of gateway instead. I wasn’t complaining, but 4 boxes of that with only a single Ccarayhua to show for it was…disappointing
Then Storm of Ragnarok came, or as my friends called it, Storm of the six. And I dove for legendary six samurai cards and I got some pretty decent pulls out from there
And that’s how I fell in love with the PTSD Samurai
Which I still don’t understand how they get so much hate. You’d be fine getting ftk’d with firewall dragon loop or frog FTK, hell even 3 master peace, but Shi En is where u draw the line?
I irrationally hated Shi En back in the day too. Dunno why but I'd always put a ton of six sam hate in my side even when I wasn't especially likely to play it.
I think it was because at the time Negates weren't the name of the game(there was some but it wasn't as oppressive) and Yugioh players hated being told "No" every turn so easily. The same thing happened when Infinity was big during Pend era. We just got used to boards full of negates, since every deck had them at that point. But Shi en and Infinity's time? Negates weren't common and that felt "unfair".
I think it can be summarized as losing T1 hurts, but you can move on and find something else to do. Being made to sit and not be able to do anything of value without being actually dead yet just sucks.
I play gravekeepers and never knew they were tier 1. Royal tribute is ridiculous, and they’re so consistent there’s no crack back. God I feel sorry for mbt after this and look forward to six sams ,my favorite deck, dominating one of our protagonists.
1:52 "Hmm what does that mean?" Paused. "Why would you say that? It's probably gonna be obvious in retrospective too."
Game 3 was a nice turn 2 scoop phase by MBT.
35:30 *Cimo is NEVER punished. There’s NO WAY you would allure and risk losing a GK to tribute for descendant.*
Also, I would use Book of Moon to set Tytaniall and then tribute GK to destroy with Descendant. I would not risk losing board presence with so few monsters in the deck.
Oh Gravekeepers, I swear this deck is still only 1 wave of support away from still being relevant, just because of how good necrovalley is.
I'd argue that the dragoon stun list is rouge, or at least close to rogue
@@DrDrao the deck is pretty die rolly, in a lot of ways gren maju is the superior stun deck, although now I would probably say it's floowander. Necrovalley is a crazy flood gate, but the top decks can play around it rather well right now
@@shawnjavery I know, but it's not unplayable, even in modern day. It was definitely better a few formats ago, but it's alright, at the very least.
If you guys remember in the Progression Series episode for Starstrike Blast, Cimo did Gage in with "DAMAGE STEP FOR GAME, DOUBLE KALUT!!!" during Game 1.
(Spoilers below)
Now, here, it's "Necrovalley then Royal Tribute, GG NO RE" to MBT in Game 3 for the 3-0 sweep 😂
What is it with Gravekeepers and being one of the most consistent decks ever without needing a super comprehensive engine outside of an in archetype terraforming?
Cimo starlight road under pot of duality but it probably wouldn’t had made a difference
Gravekeepers are my favorite deck, so good to see them represent.
I remember getting the Royal Tribute off turn 1. So satisfying
Cimo: "Buddy, I didn't have a monster..."
MBT: "....IT WAS 4 MONSTERS!!!!"
😂😂😂 we've all been there for those sick Royal Tribute plays....haha
29:30 a little late to say, but cimo summoned Stardust when he already played Duality
Didn’t realize that all I was missing in life was hearing Cimo call a female yugioh character “thicc”
I HAVE A GOOD IDEA FOR A VIDEO
you and others yugutubers should recreate the final stages of classic yugioh events of the past.
you and 3 others use the decks that played in the semi finals of some iconic year
I stopped playing Yugioh around 2007 and briefly returned thanks to dueling network in 2010/2011. This Gravekeeper deck was more or less exactly what I played, as I had loved them before I quit and I was very happy to see them as meta contenders. Knowing what this episode would be put a big smile on my face before I even hit play.
I played basically the exact same deck Cimo played around that time period. Was pretty fun, idk wut joseph could possibly be complaining about
The title "Gravekeeper's Recruiter" heavily implies this dude just wanders around Egypt asking people to join the Gravekeepers
Damage step?
Royal tribute?
Just the way Alex kept saying royal tribute this episode made me so happy.
History of Yu-Gi-Oh! episode wins
Cimoooooooo: 30
MBT: 28
Well this episode is one for the highlight reels XD
i remember recruiters with magic wand was a legit farming deck strategy in Duel Links to get legendary duelist cards, back in the day!
27:56 31:59 When the Tribute is Royal
What I can't wait for is history of jank when gravekeeper's supernaturalist comes out, that card is sooooo fucking good and underrated for GK's my god.
*Sung to the tune of Do You Wanna Build a Snowman*
Do you want to play Gravekeepers?
I like how MBT's sleeves make one continuous long sponge in his hand.
Synchron cards, I love that booster when it came out due to the part of the anime season tbat it came from with Shooting Star dragon
Gravekeepers bring back so many memories. The Merrick Structure Deck was the first deck I ever owned and it was really good IMO. Definitely a goated deck in my books.
Mal Cat is such a cool card. Damn I wish I played competitive yugioh when I was 5.
as someone who unironically adores stun decks, and who played the marik structure as a kid, these last two episodes have been an absolute joy. that triple caius turn was so fucking funny lmao
Solemn Warning coming in clutch the real MVP
SpongeBob sleeves! 😂😂😂
Gravekeepers is so fun. This one is definetelly going to the highlights
I may get any amount of hate for this but I truly love playing gravekeeper's myself so this is by far one of my favorite episodes. I also thought gravekeeper's were more of a Ishizu thing than Marik thing but, also Ishizu is my Yugioh waifu
I love Joseph's subtle reference to the 3v3 tournament where he says "share this video if you play Gravekeeper"
If this episode doesn't prove that Alex is the absolute sack master I dont know what does
I wouldn't call it sacking, when he is playing a deck with zero bricky hands.
"Talk dirty to me MBT" chef's kiss
My personal favorite 5Ds booster set.
I'm interested to see how they manage the wheel as the series goes on. Eventually there will be formats that aren't as popular as Edison or Goat that will have enough decks to have multiple weeks. I hope they stick around a few weeks in more formats and keep the series going :) my fav yugioh series
MBT is digging his own grave in Cimoooooooo’s Necrovalley with his synchro monarchs.
Fun fact is that secret 1st duality is more now than it was at it max price in this format.
For a moment i thinked:"wait, but he already did this episode of the progression series" then i looked at the series and WTH YOU ARE ALREADY THERE OMG. how the time flies
i been waiting fo the ep for wayyyyy to long. and it was worth it.
Dang Cimo, I think having that much fun is illegal.
I haven't laughed as hard/long as I did from 32:00 to 33:00, not since the "STARDUST DOESN'T MATTER" moment
1:20 Deck List / Breakdown
12:15 Duels
@29:34 the exact moment mbt’s soul left his body
"You cannot Special Summon during the turn you activate this card. "
*activates Starlight Road*
*Special Summons Stardust*
"CANNOT SPECIAL SUMMON"
"What do you think Konami meant by that?"
I'm picturing that Patrick's wallet meme
Konami: "It says right here: 'You cannot Special Summon the turn you activate this card'"
Cimooo: "Yep"
Konami: "And so, you cannot activate Starlight Road to summon Stardust"
Cimooo: "Yep"
Konami: "So since you activated one, you can't activate the other"
Cimooo: "That makes sense to me"
Konami: "Then don't"
Cimooo: "I activate Starlight Road, Special Summon Stardust"
@@joakker8820 I mean he can still activate it, just not use the special summon effect.
This is an episode to go down in the books!
Oh my goodness! No snatch steal and the man still had everything... Thatwas so painful
When I got the structure deck I could clearly understand hope necrovalley worked.
This was the first format tht I had a real deck for. I ran Fishborg Frog Monarchs from this point well into the Xyz era. So much nostalgia in this set.
I think this is a super underrated format, it's super diverse before Six Sam's fuck everything up.
man 3 monarchs in hand i feel your pain buddy we all have been there :C
I remember basically this GK list is what got me back into the game around that time. I traded a BLS for the solemn warning and got the dualities from a mega tin reprint. The only thing I played differently was 3 malefic cyber end dragon, plus forbidden lance and chalice. A free 4000 beater while recruiter blew up the opposition was hard to say no to lol
Never played gravekeepers in real yugioh, but in duel links i went KOG back when grass was at 3. Omg the deck was sick. That grass looks greener plus Magical fusion into Quintet magician, it was game over. Gravekeeper have one fusion monster, it is sicka sa well, and a monster that lets you fusion sumon while Necrovalley was on field. One of the best deck I played with 😁
I want more Gravekeeper support in 2022. Gravekeepers shall reign supreme once again.
Add visionary and spiritualist to the mix and it's fusion card, that's dangerous
I used to play something pretty similar to MBTs list and I'm surprised at the lack of shooting star; this deck can make it pretty easily
Warning and Judgement were not budget at the time. They were each $50+ with no low rarity or accessible printings.
About the budget part, Allure of Darkness, Mirror Force, and Solemn Judgment, D Prison, Starlight Road, Stardust Dragon... Those were still far (years even) from any reprints that'd make them pennystocks the way they are today, and also were more huh... good, than they are concidered today. Allure and Mirror were still a solid 20 to 30 USD for example.
Btw, I'm so happy to finally see Foolish Burial's existence acknowledged outside of Lightswornds for this era decks being showcased. A shame Plant Synchro doesn't get to show off but it's still a prevalent deck through 2011 so there's plenty of time xD
I think game 3 was quicker than an exodia win
Ugh F Gravekeepers. One of if not my most hated deck 😭 physically felt Joseph’s pain in “game 3” when he got sacked to oblivion on that 4 for 1 royal tribute
