remember when summoning a single quasar and having just a single omni negate was considered a win condition?
neither does konami
Tbf even back then it wasn't considered good. The deck was really just a gimmick, with otking with quasar being the real win con. I won't deny that I enjoyed previous formats a lot more than. this current one, but the game has always been broken.
LOL
now is summon galatea set counter trap have other negates and next turn still has those negates cause you have destrucktion protection and search another counter trap while banishing cards from their extra deck .. Yeah I play a lot of Orcust
They even powercrept Quasar with Savage! WTF?

Ahh!!! I hate this too trap from hand and deck not even set it.
That made me laugh, so true!!!
Jesus please don't let Konami read this comment! Delete it!
FUN FACT : DON THOUSAND DID THAT IN THE ANIME
@@ismailessbiti9064 Hand, Deck, Graveyard, Konami should give them all the same name, after all meta decks will pull cards from wherever they want, just wait and see, next gen they will be drawing cards from players that are on a different duel.
That Duel would have take a whole season in the anime.
with an evil laugh by the villain on every negate and protagonist somehow winning by believing in his friends
The new show VRains is kinda like this, minus the negates. They play like 7-10 cards in a turn. It has made the show boring with shitty pacing. Playmaker has to activate 5 cards to summon out a bunch of monsters to get out their boss monster, meanwhile back in GX Jaden just had to play Fusion/Polymerization. VRains is trash. Even Zexal and Arc-V wasn't this bad.
@@DarthWampa_ GX had to be my favorit generation.
I liked how every characters had their own theme deck with combos instead of a mound of OP cards.

Don't forget, in the anime, you have to explain every card.

Pretty much.

@@BluePhoenix_ This is why i just play Yugioh casually.
I'd rather enjoy playing decks with cards i like than focus on whatever the meta is, especially if i already have no intentions of playing the game at tournaments.
Although, if i had to make any suggestions as to how we could maybe reshape the master rules for Yugioh, the first thing i'd suggest is a hard limit on either special summoning or on how much spell cards you can activate on your turn (except during your standby phase, damage phase or end phase for cards that need to activate during that period so that it doesn't entirely break certain decks). This in turn would provide more opportunities for each player to prepare their defenses and be able to actually engage with one another when someone's finally ready to attack (this would probably be very similar to Magic the Gathering in terms of pacing, which i don't really see as a bad thing). On top of this, it would pretty much break deck cycling techniques and force players to actually engage with their opponent more.
This is usually mitigated in other games like Magic the Gathering or even Cardfight! Vanguard by having currency systems. Since Yugioh does not have a currency system, it needs some other form of casting regulation.
The second suggestion might possibly be cutting down the amount of monster zones and spell/trap zones on the board, similar to speed duels and Duel Links where they have only 3 of each. This way, you could still keep the extra summon zones for additional space. Hell, we could maybe even add 1 more on both the left and right respectively so that players can still apply pressure from their extra deck.
"Hello Allure of Darkness my old friend You've gone and discarded my entire hand again"
Oh no how true lol
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Hello Darkness Metal my old friend, you're gonna get yourself banned again.
That is the best comment I have read in a really long time! I laughed out loud literally
Matt Gaudet It's from a sketch by Yugi No No. He used to do a bunch of YGO themed gag skits.
Shout out to the 90's kids out there. Who played Yu-Gi-Oh classic.
I always prefer classic Yu-Gi-Oh it's much better also GX is really pretty good too.
90's kids aren't kids no more! But yeah, we had it good!
Good old times man
YuGiOh was more 00 kids, bit late to be full 90's since it released 1999.
@@Mcguinness3 what are you talking about? Yugioh was released in 1994 in japan later in 1996 in the rest of the world. Look it up
It's amazing how relevant this still is.
But to summarize: This guy spent four minutes on an *automated* dueling system to search, draw, shuffle out their whole deck, to set up 5 negates on the very first turn.
Now, imagine how this would look in real life. You draw your hand, and lose the coin flip. Your hand has no hand traps (a very possible situation, and more common than one might think), and your opponent does this.
So you get to sit there, watching your opponent draw, search, and shuffle their deck for about ten minutes, while you have no out to their play.
And you have to keep watching, since you can't take your eyes off the board or off of your opponent, if you're worried they're going to pull something.
And after fifteen whole minutes, the turn is passed over to you. So finally, you get to play! Right?
Nope. You quickly find out that you bricked, and there's no way you can play through five negates. So you have to concede.
The fact that people think that *this* is okay need to get their head examined. This isn't the fault of players using a bad deck or not having the means/money to buy the best and most broken cards of the format, this goes so much deeper. it's just bad card and game design, and it's so deterring to newcomers and people who just came back into the game alike.
Like, this shouldn't have to be said, but apparently it has, because over 1500 people seem to think that this is healthy for the game.
And to the people who say: "Duuuuuh just play better decks and cards lol u just suck", let me ask this: Are you fine with the game being reduced to "Play X and Y or else you will keep losing and you suck lol." "Just win the coin flip lol." Well, are you?
Because if you are, you are the exact reason why people are quitting and possibly even growing to hate the game.
Congratulations, hope you're proud of yourself.
Edit: Some extra comments.
Like, are people fine with decks being reduced to nothing more but generic negation extra deck monsters and how quickly you can spam the board with them?
And why are you even playing Yu-Gi-Oh! if you're just going to sit there and play with yourself to set up an entire board of monsters that pretty much don't let your opponent play the game?
Both of these points are applicable to both offline, and online.
While Master Duel may have solved the lack of accessibility to newcomers, they'll be in for a very rough and perhaps even an awful time if they keep playing against decks that set up nothing but negates while the newcomer probably just wanted to play a deck they like from days of old or aestethic wise. Also could apply to returning players after years of absence.
This is not okay. The game is fundamentally broken at its core. Where if your deck can't play certain cards, it's a bad deck. If you can't afford certain cards, you're a bad player.
If you can't play through five negates, you're a terrible duelist.
These issues have persisted for a very long time.
And Konami has done absolutely nothing to address any of these gnawing issues.
There needs to be an overhaul. A limit on the amount of special summons. And a hard limit on how much negates you can set up.
I, for one, like the diversity in what all the different decks have to offer. Yet we'll never find out, because they either can't spam the generic extra deck big attack omniversal negate monsters, or they set up on the second turn. And if a deck gets disregarded because of the latter, then we especially know it's gone too far.
And there's your extra comments. I believe I summed this up quite nicely.
Peace.
No. The average deck mains 9 or more handtraps. 6 other going second cards. And it can bait the handtraps. Stop being salty about the fact your blue eyes deck cant win
Yes i am proud of myself.
Also that guy was literally playing an illegal deck and alot of the cards in his deck are banned.
I love this comment 😂
That deck wasn't ever viable
I remember a time when Jinzo was my biggest threat
I remember when a monster that required 2 tributes was a panic. Now that shit doesn't phase anybody
I remember when if someone had Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Dark Magician, and Red-Eyes Black Dragon, they were the ruler of the schoolyard.
Dude! I remember seeing a Jinzo and thinking "Sh*t! I'm f**ked!!"
Now… "Meh, I'll give this guy mad props for actually using Jinzo!"
@Joshua LC That's so accurate. 😂
Jinzo wasnt that bad. Spells worked flip effects worked exiled force cyber jar offerings to the doomed

@Tribute Doll he’s right tho, its super outdated. From this video I can tell you at least 4 problem cards got banned and this combo is no longer possible for dragon links. Ib world chalice synchro was a broken asss card also he had agarpain, soul charge and elpy on top of all that and all those cards are banned. I think the game got a little slower to be honest.

When trap cards that cannot activate from the hand are considered bad because they are too slow, you know the game is in a bad state.
A thousand times THIS
@@realzachfluke1 the fact this is relevant is the problem
Was just thinking about this lol
Camron G whaddya mean by that?
they probably should put hand traps down to one.
remember when you played 1 normal monster and played like 1 trap or magic card and you were done for that turn. Good old days.
thats just rock em sock em robots though. yes most of us are nostalgic for old YGO, but that wasnt the answer, and neither is now, Im sure there is some nice middle ground where the games arent decided turn 1 like now, but also dont drag on forever only to be decided who got the more oppressing mirror force like back then. Im sure there is some nice middle ground where a match is decided by the better duelist not the luckier one. (yes I know every card game has an irremovable element of luck, and that just cant be helped)
tbh i miss those old days but we never get that yugioh again.. it will keep getting worst and worst
Nail try magic the gathering and play commander. It’s actually pretty fun. Not too slow not too fast.
Old yugioh was just as broken if not more
I still play that way. probably why im 3w and 9l in the game im playing lol
Yugioh 2002: I summon this monster and place one card face down and end my turn
Yugioh 2021: I summon twenty monsters, negate all your cards, activate five traps from my hand, deal 8000 points of damage, win the duel and end my turn
* summon 5 monsters, including synchro, xyz, link, go thru half my deck and starting hand and still end up with a full hand and end my turn. You: has all of your spell or trap cards negated and has rest of hand discarded. Ends turn with 0 cards on field and empty hand

Yes, i don't remembe. But not because it's impossibile to get a third turn, or non any deck can do it. But because people fucking quit games. And i am talking of real life duels too
End phase can set a trap/magic cards
Mate, i remember when Black Luster Soldier and Blue Eyes Ultimate were the hardet things to summon in a match and Exodia was actually a threat.
@SELCOUTH BEATS Too right. I did quit when XYZ and Synchros were added, cant actually remember came first, but that was the point where things took the shift from just clever use of cards and mechanics "into this does this and this and this and now i have a full field, and you have no way of countering m, because i also have a ton of cards in my hand that prevent you from doing anything."
These days, if i ever go to play the game, ill only ever play it if only uses the old format, stretched to something like the Ancient Gear archetype which does use quite a bit of special effects, but is still no where near as egregious as it is now.
When I was in college a few years ago I learned that my roommate played Yugioh, so just for the fun of it, I challenged him and he agreed to it. So I grabbed my deck that I had in middle school, which was an OG-era deck with my most recent card dating back to maybe 2005 (after that point I stopped playing), while his deck was a recent meta deck. Needless to say I got destroyed in a hilarious manner. I was in shock, and seeing how the game is played nowadays is just brutal. They massacred my boy
I felt the same when I played with some buddies in highschool. No idea what was going on and i lost in 5 turns.
I have a friend that only tries to use meta decks and he wonders why no one wants to ply with him anymore lol.
If I play yugioh I only play with friends that use anything before pendulums. My gf likes to play 1st gen yugioh only as well. It’s just more fun watching the back and forth of duels rather than whatever the hell this game is now lol

Casual yugioh with your buddies is where it's at
Structure decks only.
@Imran A XYZ are fine. They are kind of similar to synchros in a way, but Pendulums... what were they even thinking
@Imran A nah xyz were fully fine, bar some cards, but after the xyz is where it all went stupid. It lost its charm, and now its a game of learning lines of summoning and rng. The game is literally something i will always come back to because its fun but only with cards from the era of xyz and before. They ruined a perfectly good game and im honestly furious
They leveled it up again and again and again when there was no point. 99% of cards dont EVER get used. WHY THE FUCK DID YOU MAKE THEM THEN. Tens of thousands of cards and millions of different strategies you could do gone to degenerate, boring, textbook learning, abusing of broken stuff, type of shit . Its sad also because the people that wanted to play it casually have stopped and now there is less and less people to have fun in yugioh with. Doing draft challenges or deck build ones with people and even making stupid but fun decks that could work is barely possible anymore. Idk man im just dissapointed and sad.
@Tribute Doll IMO, pre pendulum was when yugioh peaked, XYZs were powerful but were limited with their abilities with the detach mechanic (which obviously went nowhere since later XYZs like hope harbinger completely avoid this mechanic) and them pendulums introduced the confusing combos that arent even impressive or fun to watch. And then Links came and are so horrendously overpowered due to generic material.
i can draw all my deck but can't use pot of greeed
Wander Kusanagi I agree with you that it’s pretty stupid that Pot of Greed is banned, but yet they allow stupid rules like what’s shown in this video.
@@RoronoaZoro-ur6hr Pot of Greed would be giving everyone draw power, which in most cases with these decks, 2 cards would draw into a good card, or possibly a game ender. (But more skilled yu gi oh players call pot of greed a +1 card advantage.) Everybody would be playing pot of greed if it was unbanned, it has NO downside, which is honestly the reason it is considered broken in this format. If this was 2004-2006 yu gi oh, where draw power isn't as prevalent, then maybe pot of greed would just be limited.

pretty rude behavior, good thing we dont have to worry about you anymore
I know I keep saying this, but when the power creep hits the point where Raigeki is not only unbanned but is referred to as a bad card, it's time to call it a day.
Slight correction here: Raigeki isn't bad, just not the best. This really only proves your point more, but Lightning Storm lets you choose between Raigeki and Harpie's Feather Duster if you control no cards, which is just more versatile.
@@yetanotherabdalt5962 yes you just helped prove his point
Why?
@@Dragonage2ftw ?
No interaction isn’t fun. What needs to be explained?
To explain:
Back in the old days, Raigeki was an absurdly powerful card that allowed you to wipe your opponent’s monsters with no penalty. All the time, resources, etc. could be blasted apart just like that. It was considered far too overpowered and too much of a game-changer, so it was banned.
Now, there are so many ways to get around Raigeki, from monsters that can’t be destroyed by effects, to cards that can be played from hand on the opponent’s turn (giving you no preparation) and stop it cold, to monster cards that can get their row back up again thanks to bullshit abilities (see the video for a good example), to some decks working BETTER with more dead monsters.
The rest of the game power creeped so hard, Raigeki just isn’t as strong as it used to be in comparison
Bruh this man is summoning his whole damn deck
That's what almost every player I have against does. Takes a player almost 10 minutes to do 1 turn. How do you have that much free time to learn all that craziness. It would make me impatient to. It's also funny to see them do all this work for so long and you just mirror Force everything the person just did. It's annoying that it takes FOREVER
I quit YGO around the time pendulum monsters were added to the game. I came back late 2018 and quickly got tired of these 10 minute turns of continuous special summons. It's ridiculous!
I also quit around the time pendulums came out the game was just getting way too fast paced a lot of times who ever had the explosive turn one won the game
Same here, I remember vsing so many quilphorts and thinking how ridiculous it is
I really think Pendulums were the turning point of this game. So many special summons made the pace so much faster. I can't stand to play Yugioh anymore. It's MtG for me now, especially with Magic Arena.

GX Era: I love this game
Synchro: interesting..
Xyz: cool mechanic, but lets slow down
Pendulum: wtf are you doing
Now: WHAT DO YOU MEAN
yeah man, GX feels the most loved. Fusion isnt overly powerful because you spend alot of hand cards, nowadays its just extra deck and summon as much shit as possible
100% true.
I mean synchros and xyz were nice, but like u said, slow down they might be OP if is not controlled.
Now... 30 mins 1 turn -.- sigh... Miss old yugioh.
For me the Deck that describes what Yugioh SHOULD BE the best is Gladiator Beast (before the new ones after Retiari). Cause the deck offers just so much and at the same time is fairly interactive and fun to play against. You never really feel like you lost cause there was just super OP shit going on.
Another Deck what was kinda like this was old Blackwings (with a few exceptions).
Links are kinda easy and hard to summon.
Pendulum... However...
Ill be honest this freaking terrifies me as an old yugioh player. The dude went though half his deck and it took like forever! And he summoned several high powered Monsters that kept his opponent from playing. How is that fair. HOW IS THAT FUN!?!

yeah, it does get disheartening when you watch your opponent build their board and you didn't draw into any handtraps or board breakers.
however, there is a morbid satisfaction when your opponent builds their unbreakable board, and it gets broken. I had this experience in a match with someone who played that infinite negate Simorg deck back when cards like union carrier was unlimited. basically, union carrier would tutor out mistvalley thunderbird, and the Simorg link 3 would get Apex Avion on field reliably. backup your Apex with a cyber Dragon infinity and the negate had another negate to back it up.

Even disregarding FTK's, there have been a lot of decks that, while I've never actually played them, definitely don't sound fun at all. You have a point, though. Things like this video are reasons why I'll never actually get into playing YGO, as much as I like the game. I'll watch from the sidelines because I know that if my opponent in a duel is taking 15 minutes on his first turn to set up an unbreakable board with a dozen negates, I'll stand up and walk away from the table.

However, I don't know why I would play a duel where my opponent goes through half their deck on the first turn and sets up seven negates on the board.

They're so easily removed from your field or negated that they end up just being deadweight in your deck. We're at the point where it's basically _necessary_ for you to disrupt your opponent using cards in your hand during their turn to try and cripple their strategy/combo, and if you plan to have a chance on pulling that off, you'll need the most disruption cards you can get that don't require you to set them.

Jo Ken the last yu gi oh world championship ended due to time limit. The game was the longest, most boring match ever.
Brings back memories of that one match I played against a guy like 7 years ago when Hushed Psychic Cleric was the new hot thing. I played 3 cards, took like 1 minute.
The next 49 minutes of the game were spent with me watching my opponent (all in the second turn of the match) cycle endlessly through his deck so he could establish a lock that prevented me from playing spell and trap cards.
Needless to say, the match was followed by some harsh insults on my part. Never once have I regretted my behavior after that game, even in the slightest.
Better play monopoly lol
I would totally sucker punch the fat virgin sitting across from me
I watched a Yu Gi Oh game at gamescom once and it was just constant shuffeling and drawing, placing cards on the field, drawing again and so on and I am pretty sure after two minutes or so the guy could have just done whatever because no one was even really looking at his hands anymore. Guy could have just drawn 10 cards without playing anything and no one would hvae noticed anymore.
That being said I would love an anime version (maybe a two episode OVA) or so at duell academy where they play like this. After all Duell Academy is supposed to research the best combos, so it would make sense. Imagine Jaden or Yugi coming to duell academy after 10 years and wanting to play a nice duel with some of the students and the student pulls this deck and Yugi just get´s to watch the enemy play with himself for 5 minutes and Yugi get´s beaten without playing a single card.
For better picture, Konami could print a trap card today that literally said "when your opponent declares an attack: you win the duel", and there would be very real reasons to NOT play it.
I actually brought up this point in a reply to another comment; modern YuGiOh overpowers even meme effects XD
They’ve had broken and not fun cards to play against for all of yugioh’s history
Honestly, Yu-Gi-Oh "died" long before the endless turn era. It started with the arrival of monsters that could negate without a sacrifice of any kind being made. Look at the original "negate" style cards like Magic Jammer. You got one use out of it and you had to discard a card. Now look at all the big "boss monsters" that can negate just because they're on the field. Duel Links is experiencing that now and I genuinely fear for its future. Duels are more about preventing your opponent from playing Yu-Gi-Oh than they are about actually combating their monsters. I get that negation is a part of the game but it got out of hand a looong time ago.
Destroying ur opponents cards and negating so they have 0 chances and no field and straight spam direct attacks
I miss the times when Counter Fairies were the only "negate" option....
I'm still playing Duel Links but between Shi En and every card that uses the grave as a second hand idk if it's gonna survive until XYZ era, and even in that case the game will be an OTK rush, turn 2-3 will decide who wins the duel
Most monsters that negate stuff always have a cost of some kind, either detaching a card or paying life points or tribute something on the field.
Yes some of them are huge beat sticks but there is always a down side to them, but you also have to understand the rulings on the cards or you will get run over.

At least Stardust Dragon, really the first monster that did such a thing, removed himself from the field temporarily to negate, and his negation was conditional. The skill aspect of yugioh was largely reliant on deciding how much of your hand you want to commit to the board, knowing that your opponent might be able to remove it all with 1 or 2 cards (Black Rose, heavy, Dark hole, etc.). Right now, you are pretty much going no fear, spamming shit for 4 minutes praying to all the gods that your opponent doesn't have a hand trap, if he doesn't you win, if they don't you win.

Yugioh has become so blew out of proportion with the power creep. Its gotten to the point where people can literally speed through all of their deck in one turn, and set up a massive field of monsters with 6+ negates.
Konami happened
@@JuwanBuchanan EXACTLY! look, I'm not trying to act like those guys who think the "old" generation is better. But I do think back then it used to be so simplistic and very fun to play. At this point as shown on the video, it's clear that this game has evolved to a point where it's just ridiculous...
I miss the old days of yu gi oh. I feel like synchro was probably as far as it could've gone. Pendulums made me quit.
Bad Dragonite same
I really didn't give two shits about Pendulums, since I didn't actually know how to abuse them. And honestly, I don't have a very positive opinion on Links. Xyz monsters were...okay, I guess. Synchros were my personal favorite. And Fusions...well, they used to be likable, but now they are just used by tryhards
Well the thing I argue is that Pendulums didn't really dominate the meta and were more an option to run, and had some hard counters that could kill them (anti-magic fragrance) its just Link they were trying to make a necessary mechanic to slow down the game even though it really doesn't do that...proven in the video
I quit around pendulums because I realized yugioh bans cards, everyone loses their investment, then they remake the same archetypes with different names with the same cards with an additional effect. Then you drop $600 and loes it all again with the next ban list. You go to tournaments and risk your shit being stolen because thats a yugioh player thing (happens in other TCGs but a lot less often). People are caught cheating a lot too because it's very difficult to follow. Add to that that the games I played often required a judge because teh games mechanics and interactions are so deeply flawed. Just poor design and they keep making it worse by adding more zones, altering zones and changing core gameplay mechanics. Plus reprinting popular cards then banning/limiting them shortly after. It's just a horrible experience.
i think a Big problem with card games (like Yugioh vanguard etc) is that its very gen oriented and you have to use newer cards or stuff relevant in that format to even have a chance, vs magic the gathering where even older cards still see play till this day, or even future card buddyfight to this extent is better at this heck even the anime buddyfighg ace promoted using older cards, it feels like every time a new format or new thing is introduced older decks in Yugioh and vanguard become irrelevant vs magic and future card where that isn't exactly the case
I legit almost threw hands with my bf when it took him ten minutes to get like 3 (extremely overpowered) monsters on his field and wiped me out on the second turn of the game.
Tell me how that’s fun for either party..?
That sounds like the people who try to teach completely new players how to play but use a top tier combo deck and try to show everything at once.
Me wayt back in the og days: I set man eater bug and end my turn.
Opponent: Why would you tell me that you set it?
Me: It's all about the mind games.
You're so dumb
The mind games were the best. 30 - 60 secs to play my turn the just ham it up like I'm a anime character going 'feel free to attack me if you're not scared', 'Haha you fell right into my trap', 'hehe you saw through my deception it turns out I had nothing up my sleeve' and 'oh no! Oh well good game'.
Now it's like okay I'm going to go make a cup of tea while you play your turn. (Comes back with tea) oh I'm completely locked out from playing I'd say good game but that was just a dick move. Would I like a second game to settle the match? No thanks I play games to have fun not get the possibility that I might have the chance to actually play something for the slim possibility to have fun on the occasion I'm allowed to play the game I thought we agreed to play together.
Setting dumb magic cards and making then think it was mirror force lol
Oooh yes and then you destroy their other monster they had on the board thus preventing 2 attacks! In those days those were the genius moves!
"Yeah, I quit, you won"
"But you still can make plays here and there"
"Even if I somehow win, after seeing you go "full monke" using your entire deck to not let me play is a moral loss to me, it's a waste of time, congrats"
Destroyed said meta players confidence lol
Finally someone said what I was thinking
@@Thegamerguy1986 Meta/highly competitive players don't have shame. To them their opponents are not people with possibly hours or days put into a deck, but a floating LP gauge that can summon cards.
This happens all the time on Master Duel, i hate when people can easily win on the next turn and they know it but keep playing cards, it just feels disrespectful, is even worse when you get rid of one their omni negate monsters and THEY instantly quit like are you serious? You are gonna take yout ball and leave because you cant instantly win your way? You got another 39 cards but god forbid you banish DPE or Baroness because then their game is ruined
I hope Konami is not planning to add any new elements or gimmicks to the game in the upcoming years and instead takes a hard look at the rules/phases and overhauls them to fix this problem , cus i cant believe the most fun ive had recently with the game has been when my oponnent clearly has a bricked hand and cant fill the field with monsters in the first turn
I played a guy that used this deck, I play yosenjus and I need traps to help protect me since they leave the field, anyway i ended up winning game 1 and losing game 2, game 3 i fiendish chained his saryuja, he got visibly upset, then I striked his borreload savage dragon, he hit the table and scooped, saying "why don't you play a combo deck stop hiding behind trap cards", I responded "the only difference between my negates and yours is that yours have attack points".
He left.
Did this happen at locals?
@@brianaguilar8283 yes lol
I don't get why people complain about modern yugioh when it's easy to destroy their boards with simple traps and hand traps. It feels very rewarding too.
Rii are you Yugi or something? You just hard draw all of these magical counter cards that effortlessly break boards without being negated?
Please tell us your secret.
@@Marsadow a game is about interaction. The only interaction in Yu-Gi-Oh is about how you can stop your opponent doing their action, or you stoping your opponent, stopping you stoping, stoping your opponent's action. Its anti game by this point.
the worst part is that this isn't just....fixable without overhauling the whole game, if you limit special summons per turn it will break too much, hardcap hand size, breaks most decks, yugioh as is, is either you do nothing and lose or you win first 2 turns.
The best idea maybe would be splitting into more formats but then they'd have MULTIPLE metas to manage and they can't even do this one
There are already alt formats, time wizard, speed duel, and rush duel formats. Modern Yugioh is just too broken to fix, its best to stick with alt formats or just straight up quit the game entirely.
add this line into the rule book: You can only special summon twice per turn.
BAMMM
I'd agree with that.
Mee too.
Yeah, that line propably should have been added to the rule book about 10 years ago.
So? I summon Inspector Boarder , set 4 cards and end my turn.
Very slow game,huh?
Do you think this is better？
@@sesame11 slow is good. This is a turn based game. If u want a fast paced game then play RTS. Turn based = the player who goes first will get so much just by playing first if the pace is fast. That's why the most popular and most balanced board games nowadays are slow af (chess, go etc)
At this point. They just need to straight up limit the amount of special summons and or monster or card effects in general you can activate per turn. This is just stupid.
Honestly, I’d say either hard limit special summons, or (I’ll admit I mostly focus on the TCG) unlimit Maxx C to punish Special Summon Spam.
That would make very popular Dexter unplayable example Blackwing how is supposed to Synchro climb awesome the guy in the video is playing a very bad deck unbreakable boards appear in every card game excluding like gold fish and evenly matched is a card and their other hand traps and going second options if you want a play an old or bad deck expect that to happen suggesting something like that clearly proves you don't know enough about Yu-Gi-Oh
@@shanehaney6040 if you can special enough times to make your opponent deck out and it makes Exodia deck kind of pliable and forces your opponent to end their turn if they cannot special summon at least 40 times with some decks can it leads to unfair game stats and instant wins with b******* like Exodia
@@Sammy_Mochi Fuck all Dat. Mass special summoning combined with over powered monster effects, rendering traps and most spell cards obsolete killed this game. If you can't see that? You know nothing about yugioh.
@@Sammy_Mochi Dude, I’m sorry, but if the answer to unbreakable board states is “play hand traps and dispruption as half your deck lul”, then I’d take a Maxx C Exodia deck. At least Exodia itself is a stupid meme deck, and its an alt win condition I wouldn’t even be mad at.
And honestly? Adding a Summon Limit would, if nothing else, shake the game up. Actually get - shock and horror - some VARIETY in a game with 10,000 unique cards, where less than 5% actually see any play. Fucking hell, I’d happily go back to the days of Tribute summoning - damn kids need to get off my lawn...
I haven't played in a while (7-8 years), so I guess it's safe to say that my Six Samurai deck does not stand... A GHOST OF A CHANCE
I'm a Six Sam guy too, they released more cards for the Six Sams but....lol no they don't stand a chance. You'd have better luck dueling with your old Pokemon cards.
Pre-banlist they were rogue with Rhongo turbo. Now we need to wait for general or Gateway to be semi-limited. Until Team Bio figures something out.
You can still make something out of six sams in duel links, Its my main deck in duel links
Funny you guys all mention Six Samurai... the moment that shit came out I noped out of yugioh
Six Sams are actually still very dangerous. With gateway unbanned, and their new link monster, they can do this too. You'd only need to add maybe 3 cards to your deck to update it
Now that the game is closer to gambling rather than strategy, how could you expect people to stay
you not staying =/= people don't stay
i don't search for a match for more than 3 seconds, it's full of people
I have to agree
It was already gambling in a way but i get what you mean. Raigeki was minus 4 potentially, easy to explain.
I cant when my opponent has half their deck in the grave, a full hand and a full field on turn 1. Thats juat insanity and basically playing against someone with a headstart
Imagine doing this shit in real life with actual physical cards?
By the time my opponent ends his turn I already finished cooking breakfast.
It does happen in real life. Last Physical Duel I played, my opponent's (who went first) turn took THIRTY minutes.
He was playing like 4 Archetypes in One Deck, while I was playing Cyber Dragons.
My turns took a minute tops, and that's because my deck is heavily focused in bringing Cyber Dragon Infinity to the field.
Usually it was: Special Summon Cyber Dragon / Toon Cyber Dragon, Normal Summon Chronomaly Golden Jet or Cyber Dragon Drei, with those two Level 5, Xyz Summon Nova, then Xyz Change it into infinity. Then use his effect to absorb the opponent's most dangerous Boss Monster, and negate his plays with Infinity's effect on his turns.
Then on his turns, he was Link Climbing, using effects to bring things from deck, then more link climbing, then resurecting things for more Link Climbing, then some Synchros.... At least half a minute of thinking between each action... 1 and a half minutes every time he needed to search his deck and re-shuffle it... It was really boring.
... At least I won, but goddammit if it was annoying.
@Jesse Quarnstrom Dude, at least he use it in the right deck...
You could take a bath with a Blackwing synchro set up board.
By the time it's 2030, it would take a whole day to finish a turn.
@@seriouslee2397 Yes, and there will be another extra deck, others 666 field zones, and crap like that. If the game will survive, obv
I've honestly been trying to learn more about this game, and eventually stumbled on this video. Why would I want to try and get into a game where the match is decided at the coin flip?
It's not like that at all anybody who runs into the problem of not being able to play just sucks ass at the game but can't admit it
Christopher Herron you sound like you're trying too hard to fit in lmao. matches shouldn't rely on you drawing ash blossom
@@christopherherron7699 no the game is that broken,when your opponent not only sumons a bunch of monsters on their first turn but many of them also can prevent your from playing your cards then the game is both unbalanced and unfun to play.
why isn't naturia beast banned?
I'm sorry to say this, because I love it, but there are better card games to get into RN
@@videakias3000 Is that a rhetorical question? If not then I guess this explains it if anyone is wondering; Naturia Beast isn't banned because that fucker requires 1 earth tuner and 1 none earth tuner, which is very specific and hard to play in majority of decks that doesn't use that attribute a lot. Unlike link monsters where you can use anything to summon it as long as its counted as monster, which lets players spam link monsters until it connects to their opponent's extra deck slots and block them from playing the game.
me coming back to yugioh after an 8 year hiatus to a friend: hey lets play yugioh!
my friend: okay, hold on though, let me explain how things work now.
(a couple hours later)
my friend: *pulls out his deck* so now that your caught up how about a duel?
me: *pulls out a quarter, flips it and loses the toss* "welp, gg man, hey wanna play some destiny 2?"
Destiny sucks
Ooooof
It isn't that tragic, even a budget Salamangreat is playable, but you will not survive a tournament without hand traps, so that sucks. And the new burn deck is like 200-300 bucks, lol.
maybe just merch the extra deck and maindeck together, so you have to draw this insane XYZ/Synchro/Link monster?
Or have a Summon counter? Like, turn 1= 1 summon allowed, turn 2= 2 summons and so on....
@@uchihas1995 Fuck off.
And this is how these type of players stop anyone new from trying to start playing.
As a noob would you wanna play a game where all you do is watch someone spout nonsense and throw cards around for at least 2 or 3 minutes before you even get your first turn and then be told “oh thanks for letting me stroke my own ego, and would you look at that? I win! Wanna play again?”
That’s how you kill your own game. Well done Konami. You kill off MGS and now YuGiOh.
Komani never does anything right just look at phantom pain and whatever their doing now with sevens
Exactly
Not only that, the other problem with this game is just how much the archetypes seem to define this game. Because nothing is more fun than pulling cards from a booster that aren't useful without 4-5 other cards. It limits deckbuilding heavily whenever these specific card interactions show up.
It's funny that the game's og anime specifically tried to go against the elitists like seto kaiba. But ends up the whole game is just a bunch of these type of people jerking off to their own deck. It's just lame and a waste of time.
some people leave yugioh cause the opponent is more interested in play by himself apparently.
Apparently its now "Take over the entire board in turn 1 or go home" lmao... Glad I quit at the end of XYZ era... and even than I thought XYZ was too fucking fast for the game.
yeah me too
play yugioh after so long time
play against enemy who autistic play in the 1st turn
wait 1 mins and quit before even my turn
I wanted to start playing again then i saw this, holy shit.
If you're planning on stepping into anything Yu-Gi-Oh related, Speed Duels/Duel Links or Rush Duels are probably your best bet for actually having a chance of winning and having fun (although Duel Links has its share of bullshit as well which I suspect will only get worse as time goes on).
@@gabeitches87 thank you, i just saw duel links on team ill get that
Dueling nexus let's you play online against other people around the world or against a ai opponent and build decks for free. Alternatively you can download the ppsspp emulator and download tag force 1; it's exactly like old school yugioh up to the gx era. No synchros, xyzs, pendulums or links; just fusions and rituals. Both are really fun 👍.
@@Ghostwolf4004 Thank you so much !!
@@crossinbean4725 you're welcome :)
Players: We need ways to special summon more
Konami: Introducing Fusions!
Players: Would be nice if we could special summon without poly and monsters we don't need
Konami: Introducing Syncros!
I would say right around Syncros, is when the game was getting out of hand
Konami: Introducing XYZs!
Players: TF is that
Konami: Monsters you can summon by using 2 or more like level monsters giving you more power!
Players: That's nice and all but I think we may be going into a huge power creep issue
Konami: Introducing Pendulums!
Players: .........
Konami: These monsters have scales going from 1 to 12. Example you have a scale of 1 on the right and a scale of 12 on the left. You can special summon monsters from you hand whose levels are between 2 and 11
Players: Konami, POWER CREEP. TF DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?!?!?!??!?!
Konami: introducing Link summons!
Players: Konami, I swear, I will....
Konami: It limits special summoning from the extra deck
Players: Go on
Konami: You will need to give up monsters stated at the bottom of the cards (was cars lol). Link 3 requires 3 monsters and so on
Players: Okay, it seems to slow down some decks and tone down the power creep a bit
1 year later
Players: Konami, FU! Claims to slow down the game but releases more links that allow players to swarm the field. Summon Sorcerer > Needle Fiber > Summon Sorcerer > Isold (points to who know where I pulled that from). And that is just one possible combo.
Konami: What if we release more cards with swarming potential that bypasses the all the game mechanics we just set?
PLayers: (1/2 the population have left Yu-gi-oh)
qliphorts were the first meta pendulum deck and they honestly weren't bad
synchros were honestly worse for the game than xyzs, the amount of stupid shit you can do with synchro laddering is insaaaaane
Yugioh players in a nutshell
themcpolo xyz was okay and acceptable but since pendulum it became shit they are ruining a great game
@Jesse Quarnstrom I didn't like playing against turn 1 quasar as much as anyone else. Most broken xyz deck I can think of was zoo and that was pretty late game
Thank you for your great comment, and your work and effort you put into it! You are absolutely right.
For my opinion it started to get out of control with xyz. Pendulum is the biggest piece of shit ever!
If a trap card was printed with the effect "You win the game." People wouldn't play it because it was too slow.
To be fair destiny board is quite slow compared to the average trap.
@@darealclownpeice And it isn't necessarily JUST the fact it's slow (if it were just that, it could be a legit win con for control decks like how Final Countdown is). Problem is, you have to keep Destiny Board on field, while filling your S/T Zones with the other letters
No, that would 1000% see play. You go first, set that thing. Flip it during the next players draw phase you've just FTKed them with a card that can be splashed into basically anything.

@@eyedam Banned off Twitter. Making 6 figures a year sitting on my ass

Yeah, me too, like, I did quit at the beginning of Synchro era, because I smelled the shit from literally years before. And I think that it will just keep getting worse...unless they add a rule that doesn't let you have more than one kind of monster in your extra deck
@@Vexy93 Except that would make it even more broken cause everyone would be going with Links, since every other Extra Deck monster would become useless. And then people would be like, "hey, why are you telling me to not play this Fusion or Synchro?", which then the try hard Yu-Gi-Oh player responds to, "because it sucks and it's not a Link, lol". You know how the majority of the Yu-Gi-Oh community is, and even though I'm part of it, it can be very cancerous and very toxic.
got an idea:
What if there is a global rule where duels are divided into different generations(duel monster, GX, 5ds, etc, etc) like if I only build a deck with 1st generation cards (duel monster era), I join tourney for example, I can enter with what generation I chose, I can find opponent with the same as my league. This is a good way to promote older cards and people like me will be encourage to go back to play yugioh. That said, I'm not denying those people that like the "NEW" FASTER duels. They can still build a new generation decks but they will only battle with people matching with their chosen generation.
this is a win-win for everyone even for konami because they can make older cards alive again.
Yes please
This idea is so good that just imagining this become a reality moved me.
go up
yugioh duelo linksooo
Sounds good, but the current ygo community (i dont know about japan) is too small dividing it further make it worse. I mean that is like the ideal world that will be very hard to pull off
They fucked this game so bad I don't care what anyone says. It's not just the summoning of the new monsters it's the effects of the monsters from the extra deck that ruins in and they just summon 4 or 5 first turn and they just negate everything it's pathetic it's actually so ridiculous how they expect kids ti play this it's so stupid. Honestly I don't know who sat un the meeting room and came up with all that stupid shit
Its Konami after all
What's funny, these toxic ass players will get pissed if I activate evenly matched.
Yeah, how dare me for activating a "toxic trap card" to stop your solitaire board.
as someone who’s coming back to yugioh after close to a decade, i have to say i’m utterly bewildered by what the game has become. used to be that monsters were monsters and magic/traps helped you deal with your opponent’s monsters or magic/trap cards. now it seems like monsters do just about everything, spells are only there to get your monsters out, and forget about trap cards. seems like a lot of card management and optimization, but where’s the strategy? where’s the excitement? it really feels like people are just banging their decks together rather than “dueling.”
then again, i’m about as out of the loop as you can get, so i dunno, maybe some people enjoy it. but i’d probably never want to invest myself seriously into the game, looking at it from the outside.
only kids can enjoy that these days or literal tryhard owning these very kids at the game which gives them at least some enjoyment in their life. Yugioh has been butchered a long time ago
My son just started watching the anime on netflix, so we decided to get into the game. I stopped playing close to 15 years ago, and I agree with you. There's no strategy to these decks anymore. It seems like everyone plays a variation to the same deck, and the only way to win is by going first. I remember when you could build your own deck, themed after what type of monsters you wanted to play, and YOU got to pick the cards that went into your deck, not Konami. So with that being said, me and my kid just play with starter decks, because it's more fun.
@@slippyfrog22 thats true and understandable, a friend of mine and me play according to up until 2007 rules which we set for ourselves, basically allowing anything up until GX which was printed till that year or appeared in the Anime. brings back good memories and is so much more fun than duelling with auto-pilot decks or monsters with multiple broken effects
@@NeonLine he's only 8 and I'm easing him into it so he plays by duelist kingdom rules and we're pretty lax on life points lol. Either way, we're having fun and BOTH of us get to play.
