It's not too surprising. Even though the current format isn't that bad, after a while people get exhausted when a game becomes too convoluted. That's when people start losging for nostalgia, for something they are familiar with. I started playing legacy formats two years ago too. The same is slowly happening in Pokemon too.
@@somefishhere I know that feeling. I still clearly remember playing Pokemon ORAS for the frist time like it was jus yesterday. But it actually came out 8 years ago in 2014. Makes you feel old doesn't it?
@@ryuuohdeltaplus7936I think he meant it was underplayed in the TCG which it absolutely was. It didn’t start getting into everyone’s deck still about 2008-2009
Just got this in my recommended, very funny to see that Hourglass of Life wasn't released, and I never would've guessed that the first printing of it in the TCG would've been in the Speed Duel GX box.
It’s kind of trippy to see that there were cards that didn’t see a release in the TCG for years just casually dropped in the OCG’s first year. Mechanicalchaser was a huge deal in the early TCG because we didn’t get Gemini Elf for so long. And Blue Eyes Ultimate didn’t come over until 2007 and by then it was far more irrelevant. It was noteworthy for making Blue Eyes Shining Dragon actually summonable lol
If I recall, Mechanicalchaser came in a tournament pack first. So did crush card virus. I'm glad Konami stopped giving out meta warping cards for tournament wins and decided to just make them collector's items.
17:00 little correction, Masked Sorcerer was not the first non flip effect monster. Technically Exodias Head, but even if we won't consider him, on the same day there came out Electric Lizard, Steel Scorpion and Cocoon of Evolution in Vol.4
This 1 Summon and 1 Spell per turn rule makes this a completely different game, and I wonder if it might not even have been better for the game if that rule remained.
Loved this video! I appreciate that you made a video on this subject as im someone that still enjoys playing with OCG cards to this day. I love the unique OCG exclusive monsters, the look of the card frames and the differences in the gameplay. Im glad that so many other people are fascinated by my favourite era of the yugioh card game. Won a game using an OCG warrior of tradition on wednesday, and lost the game before to exodia. 1999 yugioh is still a blast to play.
Solemn judgement was always worth the risk but it was so hard to use in goats. Use it at the wrong time or too quick and bam! You get knocked out by ring of destruction very early
Thank you! Searching for something like this for a while. I remember years ago someone did a slideshow about the progression of the strongest monsters in early yugioh and been wanting more content like this since.
I've been watching many old-school yugioh videos recently, and as someone who only got into the game in 2018 it's really nice knowing how those eras of the game were
-Btw the original rules also had one spell trap per turn. It wasnt introduced in expert. -And there was a Volume 2 format with original rules. Thats the most non boring of all original rules formats and Dragon Capture Jar is meta there
Back in 1999 early 2000 there was a little convience store on the corner of my street and this guy always had the latest ocg sets from the beginning I was collecting Yu-Gi-Oh before America even was a thought for the franchise , I still remember ordering Yu-Gi-Oh dm 2 for gbc threw some sketchy phone order video game import company and waiting 2 months for it to get delivered cash on delivery lol
What an excellent trip down an oft-forgotten part of this game's history. Bravo! I've always liked Hourglass of Life in the older games, It was a really neat effect and felt like a better Jirai Gumo (it's bizarre to learn that it came first.)
An incredible video. I've always found myself drawn to this part of yugioh's history, really mindblowing how the modern game turned out by looking at these first few sets. And on a more romantical note, the game feels sort of mystique-y in its artwork style, and the rudimentary combos and strategies there are.
Really appreciate this video. Always was fascinated by the early history of Yu Gi Oh, especially before the TCG. Since a lot of classic cards with their unique, more fantasy-esc, type of artwork were released at that time, it would only take until Tournament packs and such to see them re-released in the West, but even then not all of them.
It's actually the other way around. The anime was based on the manga, as was the OCG. Tribute summons weren't introduced in the manga until Battle City in mid-1999, which happens to be about the same time they were introduced into the OCG.
Stopped at the exodia part, but that is so cool. Everyone knew of exodia at that point, and konmai just did a slow roll for 5 sets to collect them all. No joke, this is such a cool way to release a popular monster.
And then proceeded to release the Exodia head in a pack that was sold exclusively during a tournament event in Tokyo Dome, citing “the only time to get the Exodia head, ever.” The event ended in a riot that resulted in two people hospitalized. This was the result of Konami’s greediness.
I'd highly recommend MBT's Junior Journey series here in TH-cam. They adapt the first Yu-Gi-Oh rules of no tributing, 1 spell and 1 trap per turn to every historical format with their own banlist and everything and have managed to play some of the most entertaining matches I've seen.
I'll add because some cards were hard to get at the time that's the reason they really won't limited for years. Just take a look at what the OCG had access to around the time of the very first ban list and it's not hard to see that something like that scarcity played a HUGE influence on things.
After watching this i gotta say two things. 1- Dude this was an awesome and well done video mad props!!! And 2- seeing how the game went from nomi monster beat down to this complexed (well for the time anyway) game in the span of a year makes it seem that when the game came to the TCG side that we were hella spoilt. Yeah, early LOB format was essentially beat down format but seeing this its like woah. They went through ALOT so that we could get a more refined product
The participation cards of the tokyo dome tournament are split up slightly. For attendance you would get gate guardian and dark magician of chaos (no numbers). tri horned dragon was a card given to everyone in the first round, so basically anyone who got the first two cards would get this one too. Sengenjin and Serpent Night Dragon was given in the 2nd and 3rd round, respectively
Magic has a nicer launch but there’s something about Yu-Gi-Oh! I love where I know it’s not always as pretty but way crazier. I got over 300 cards from 99-04 from my neighbor in 07-08 wrapped in a plastic grocery bag. I played with them for years and years. It’s the original anime version of a popular game à la Genshin: Impact being anime BotW, which for some kids today is probably going to be one of their most beloved games of all time.
The reason Vol. 1 had Blue-Eyes on it even though you couldn't get the card is because its using the cover art from Vol. 5 of the manga, if anybody is wondering.
Not gonna lie OP. I never understood OCG and TCG. I grew up playing Yugioh cards too but..ehh..you know..poor kid and didn't have the income to buy cards. I stuck with the games but by the time I was 13 I grew out of Yugioh. You can say I grew up believing cards like Ancient Jar actually existed in the US. I'm 29. Last year I finally learn the difference between OCG and TCG. 🤣
These cards are really awesome, I've gotten into yugioh during the late zexal era but these cards will always be icons because I bought a tin at some thift shop and it had a ton of classic cards. I've wished they still dark and mysterious artwork. The new artworks are nice but it feel like a different game with them leaning so heavily on more bright colors and anime style designs
@@JanjoZone yeah, also I found your channel recently and love watching your retro format and other classic type videos. It very informative and interesting to learn how the game was back in the 2000s
I've had a collection building up for the old styled box bordered atk/def ocg cards. That is hands down my favorite style. I already have exodia, dark magician, dark magician girl and the ocg promo god cards
16:14: ...Wait, is that how Graceful charity actually functioned? Lol. I remember when we used to play this card as kids. We always thought that the description meant draw 3 cards and then discard whatever 2 cards you wanted from your hand, even if those 2 cards weren't part of the 3 you just drew, haha. We never considered it meant you must discard 2 cards from the 3 you just drew. Classic, vague Yu-Gi-Oh card description in full effect there.
Neat video, I am curious where this information is primarily coming from tho. It seems really hard, as a westerner, to find information about the early OCG.
5:08 That card's name's romanized name is Desu futo (Death foot). I have no idea who came up with The Drdek, it's like they tried to come up with least Japanese name possible.
Great video, very informative but I have a question: where did you find these Firbidden Memories remixes? They sound great and wanna grab them for myself
The Yugioh OCG was more complex than the TCG. Especially since they are both legally separate games by Konami. Cuz the rulings were different and more strict. And the OCG was (and still is) aimed at early teens. I mean the back of the packs say: “対象年齢12才以上” (Translation: “Target age 12 years and older”) Which implies it’s for young teenagers or older. And they still say that on OCG packs to this day (excluding Rush Duels as it’s a spin-off and it’s own game). Which in Japan or in most countries, low teen ratings are 12 and older by their standards. Just so people get a better understanding. Plus the manga and anime targets the same demographic as Shonen anime and manga mainly target young teenage boys between 12 and 18. And we have plenty of reliable sources to support that now.
Dude in the past 3 days I've watched about 5 different creators videos all on this exact same subject but that ain't gonna stop me from watching another one lol
xD kinda funny to see that Mechanical Chaser was in a set together with Gemini Elf... where as here Chaser was THE BEST Tournament pack card and a player who could get 3 Gemini Elfs (SCR from PSV) and 3 Chasers was kinda the King since he had the best current deck
The first Yu-Gi-Oh! game I played was World Championship Tournament 2004 for the GBA, and Kanan the Sword Mistress was my favorite female card, despite there being stronger cards.
Having just watched Roobindale's video on the early years of the TCG, I can conclude that the first year of the OCG was pretty similar, just with cards being introduced in a different order.
The cards he said that wasn't printed in tcg(archfiends mirror, hourglass of life, and drdek) was printed because I have a shoe box of old yugioh cards and all those cards are in there in multiples!!! Lol I was 9 when this game first came out across seas.

Never knew Solemn judgment was printed so early in the game, kinda heartwarming to think a card printed this early still sees meta play to this day.
imagine if it negated monster effects too
It was crazy underplayed too for a long time
@@scarfchomp7203not necessarily. In the OCG Solemn Judgement saw heavy play from the time it was released.
@@ryuuohdeltaplus7936I think he meant it was underplayed in the TCG which it absolutely was. It didn’t start getting into everyone’s deck still about 2008-2009

Just got this in my recommended, very funny to see that Hourglass of Life wasn't released, and I never would've guessed that the first printing of it in the TCG would've been in the Speed Duel GX box.
Proves that there's still a way for older OCG cards to arrive!
It’s kind of trippy to see that there were cards that didn’t see a release in the TCG for years just casually dropped in the OCG’s first year. Mechanicalchaser was a huge deal in the early TCG because we didn’t get Gemini Elf for so long. And Blue Eyes Ultimate didn’t come over until 2007 and by then it was far more irrelevant. It was noteworthy for making Blue Eyes Shining Dragon actually summonable lol
If I recall, Mechanicalchaser came in a tournament pack first. So did crush card virus.
I'm glad Konami stopped giving out meta warping cards for tournament wins and decided to just make them collector's items.
Also very odd considering that Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon itself was very prevalent in the DM anime
17:00 little correction, Masked Sorcerer was not the first non flip effect monster. Technically Exodias Head, but even if we won't consider him, on the same day there came out Electric Lizard, Steel Scorpion and Cocoon of Evolution in Vol.4

I love the OCG history specially in 1999 and 2000! That was a great video man!
thanks! It's a distinct time in Yugioh for sure!
This 1 Summon and 1 Spell per turn rule makes this a completely different game, and I wonder if it might not even have been better for the game if that rule remained.
