as a 32 year old, i pretty much only play goat,with no forbidden cards, just limited. its fun. i remember vividly fall semester 2003 when graceful charity was moved from semi limited to limited i was so mad lol. but i respect it at limited, not banned. best years ever for this childrens card game
I bounce back and forth between edison and goat, I feel they complement each other quite well. Would highly recommend people do the same if they want another flavor of yugioh.
My biggest tip: try other decks. Get out of your comfort zone. Playing the same cookie cutter Goat/Chaos Control deck gets old after a while and having fun is all that matters.
@@NickDeriu_ That's another thing: everyone has different playstyles. I suck at piloting slower decks like Goats, but I noticed I won more with more aggressive and streamlined decks like Beastdown and Burn.
I'm just getting back in with a bunch of structure decks like Dark World and Crystal Beast to learn how to play along with the Egyptian God decks, these decks all have so many specific spell & trap cards I don't need to worry too much about making my own deck at this point because it's going to require buying single cards rather than boosters or structure decks (unless you get 3 copies of the structure decks to maximize the best cards). It's overwhelming to say the least but one day I might have the courage to go to a local store an see if anyone wants to smoke me in a duel. Regardless of formats -- is it really THAT much fun to constantly one-turn-kill your opponent? To all those people that build bully decks is winning like that every time actually fun for you? It's the same as taking your level 70 Blood Elf Paladin with full gladiator pvp gear & just hanging around Silvermoon city flexing your power.
The only format I can get to play without any risk of havin a brain aneurysm 😂 Seriously, yugioh became so complicated through the years. The only thing I kinda lament is that there are many GX cards I like and I think goat doesn't include them does it?
@@NickDeriu_ I watched a video, seemed interesting, although I still need to learn things in it because it goes up to synchro and I stopped before that was introduced. I think it was 2007 or something. I had two decks(some cards were proxy though but no one cared lol) I had a cyberdragon deck that aimed for 1 hit(powerbond or limiter remover) And one more slow paced deck that used the older monarks and sacrificial fodders to play them (liked Mobius specially) I'll give a try though, thanks, I didn't even heard avout this format before, thabks for the info
I just hopped on to goat format, tried to play an exodia deck. Queued up, game started, didn't know if i was first or second so tried normal summoning Sangan, which i did. Didn't know how to end my turn, quit 😂 If there's a way to play goat format in master duel, like private matches, i'd be so down for that.
I got my first starter deck when I was 13 back in late 2003, but didn't start playing seriously till Goat Format took effect. Seeing the modern format has me returning to the nostalgia days because of how toxic the modern format has become: "Either play the best deck or don't play at all!" Goat Format isn't like that. There are many decks that can actually do really well, and even though the ban list and the card pool are both set in stone, new strategies and ideas still happen to this day. Will I abandon the modern format? Maybe someday. I do love all the new Blue-Eyes cards and I'm not yet ready to let go of them. But I also love the glory days of 2005, when things were so much simpler for me.
I once saw someone compare Goat Format to 𝘚𝘶𝘱𝘦𝘳 𝘚𝘮𝘢𝘴𝘩 𝘉𝘳𝘰𝘴. 𝘔𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘦 - it's as good as it's going to get, and yet, it doesn't have to get any better because it doesn't need to. That being said, I DO wish a few cards that were late to the party could have been accessible in 2005. Take "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon," for example. That beloved behemoth showed up in January 2006, JUST BARELY missing Goat Format. It would have made "Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon" both legal and playable for us Kaiba lovers. Another example is "Meteor Black Dragon" for the Red-Eyes players; that one didn't show up in the TCG till 2012, which was after the Tele/DAD Format. Both beasties would have made phenomenal targets for "Cyber-Stein," which as we know is legal in Goat Format.
@@apostleianlovelette If you really like those cards specifically, I would recommend you to play OCG Goat format, Japan had all of those and more during 2005, which makes the poll of cards even more diverse than TCG Goat
I'm currently building a goat format deck but with a twist. Goat format limited to 1 every cards and all current banned cards are not allowed. so no pot of greed, graceful charity and delinquent duo. and honestly it's a lot less stale than the usual goat format.
Hi there! Great video! Thanks to this I started playing Goat earlier this year. I definitely felt much more comfortable and confident diving into this format that I didn't get a chance to play years ago. I went to my first in-person Goat Prix event too recently! I had a lot of fun and learned so much in the process. Currently rocking with Chaos Turbo and Goat Control. I will dive into Monster Reasoning and Panda Burn next. 👀 P.S. Each time I make a Goat deck profile, I always recommend this video and the Goat Format channel. Great resources for other new players too!
"The format is so diverse" Meanwhile my locals: Chaos Turbo Chaos Turbo Chaos Turbo Chaos Turbo Chaos Turbo Chaos Turbo Chaos Turbo Warrior Chaos Turbo Goat control
Not sure if its legal for goat, but my friends are playing a custom teledad format where it has a custom banlist and the card pool cuts off at 2008. The deck im most proud of making is a necroface pot deck, where i use necroface and allure or gold sarc to get the opponent to banish his cards, then ill get the fibre jar rolling since it returns everything except the banished cards, so that and soul release mean my opponent should eventually have no cards to play the game
I was trying to build a deck and I'm not familiar with goat in general, this is my first approach. Question: why can't I use axe of despair or malevolent nuzzler?
@@Soulssl4yer I'd recommend you use duelingbook. In EDOPRO you can choose which errata (iteration of card text) you want to use. If you didn't select the errata from 2005 you wouldn't be able to use it in a goat format room, since it's 2023 text isn't the same as it's 2005 text. Can't help you more since I don't use EDOPRO.
Historically yes, but it’s growing a lot. Many local shops are starting to pick it up. The discord has 5.6k members with lots of people looking to play 😊

Goat format is really starting to take off. I went to three locals and 2 of them have cases of singles dedicated to goat format.
That’s epic, I’m trying to find a local shop where i can play 😊
You go to 1 shop and because they have some singles you think it’s take off lol..

how about toxic deck like Catapult FTK, or Yata lock?
Yata is banned in this format. There are some FTK decks but not sure if Catapult is one of those.

Which is better guys 40 or 60 card decks?
Personally I like 40 card decks for Yugioh
Look over the limited list and put as many of those into your deck as you can
Limited card are all high power, so if you can find space in your deck they are worth playing for sure.
Is this possible to play on Master Duel?
The real and only format that matters in Yugioh.
This man said Sookemyomee
😂 I'm rolling with it now
Can i play exodia in goat?
yes you can 🫡
Fun fact cursed seal of the forbidden spell is in GOAT format
Nice, that’s probably good against combo decks like empty jar and reasoning

My boyfriend is teaching me how to play Yugi with this format because he says it’s easier to learn 😊
Definitely easier, and in my opinion more fun 😊 thanks for watching
I think it would be easier to explain what you can’t do in goat format rather than what you can
Goat is The GOAT.
Nutrient Z is funny if I'm gonna take 2000 or more battle damage gain 4000 life points
Seems good against burn 🔥
@@NickDeriu_ battle damage and effect damage are two different things summond skull direct attack i can activate Nutrient Z on Ceasefire that does 2000 damage I cant activate Nutrient Z
I could be completely wrong, but I thought the Fusion Deck could only have 15 cards maximum, like in the side.
In modern day Yugioh yes, in GOAT there is no limit to the amount you can have in your fusion deck. The sideboard is limited to 15 cards
In goat you can have any number of fusion monsters
Wait, you can play Brain Control 3 times? XD
:D
A few mistakes but still a fine video
Thank you, I still have a lot to learn, will be dropping another similar video soon 😊

Goat
Is Edison a format?
@@NickDeriu_ it is quickly becoming the crowd favorite
newer formats are bad real bad, you can win in the first turn using 49 cards its not bad its dumb there is no strategy only 3 or 4 cards need it
playing someone else's deck is so lame. making your own was such a huge part of early yugioh
There’s a lot of room to brew in this format, so go nuts. Even within each archetype there is plenty of space for creativity.
This is wrong info like is not even valid by Konami and it’s only talking about regular shit 💩 that everyone is saying but is more into it.
ok
Tsuko what?

stop using long vowels to pronounce short vowel sounds.
