Thanks for all your support for the new series! We saw your feedback regarding how the perspectives flip back-and-forth too rapidly during the gameplay, and will tone it down in future episodes! This episode was already finished before Episode 1 was released!
Glad this issue is being addressed, because yeah, it got annoying real quick in Episode 1. It'd be much better if both players' facecams but only Cimo's perspective was displayed constantly.
I mean, I like seeing both hands tbh. What if you did something like a hand-cam using a rotoscoping/masking effect on his capture? Feather the edges of the mask so it blends into your capture a little cleaner? Best of both worlds? Love this new series btw.
Rarran had a great start, then fumbled a lot in between but, just in general, he did good. That's something to be proud of, so congrats for giving this Draft a chance, you evolved so much. In general, this series is a good way of teaching new players and returnees, while still having a high level for veterans. PS: Saying "f-ck this guy" to arguably one of the best and strongest cards ever in GOAT Format is to be laughed at. I won't scroll through the comments but you expect some beef from it.
Rarran did great, and people bag on him for BLS but the other picks when he had BLS were equally as good, both snatch and graceful are never dead and let’s be honest BLS would’ve ended up dead in hand with no light in grave. Now, passing on Torrential on the other hand…
@@charlesf.7947 ye it was funny skipping on bls but understandable considering the choices. i facepalmed when he faded torrential for whatever it was he took instead lol
@@tjr930 But the important thing is now he should know that the cards he skipped like BLS are really good, he should hopefully perform better if he returns to do this again.
Rarran is unofficially the wild card. I love seeing his perspectives of the game coming from a Hearthstone background, and his hot takes like saying “fuck this guy” about BLS with his flippant delivery sends me flying. I don’t care who wins, I just know this will be a fun match up to watch
I think that, at least with non Yugioh players, explaining cards like Metamorphosis in advance is a good idea. That way they aren't so uncertain over Fiend Skull Dragon and Dark Balter type cards.
I'm actually really happy to see Rarran on this series, I know that this is part promo for his channel & goat format is a different world of Yu-Gi-Oh but after seeing him be so heavily against modern Yu-Gi-Oh the fact he said yes & seemed to actually be enjoying himself while playing it makes me happy. :)
I love how rarran started by dunkin on the game on its very real issues, and the community responded by helping him and including him in, that he slowly became one of us.
to be fair, the community was not extremely helpful until he invested hours into learning modern yugioh. Am pretty sure he would have had fun from the start playing old school drafts though.
I like seeing things like this. As you don't have to be the best player to just be good at drafting. It's also just a fun way to get new players interested in trying out the game even if it's not the modern version of the game.
@@CD-zi6rb Tbf, I don't like him either. He's acting like in a baby show (aka overacting) while also pretending he's smart, which is quite annoying. He doesn't even know what "Hot take" means (A take that would put you like the Tangled meme) or how to be sarcastic.
@@N12015 I think his scripted content is fine. It’s just the manchild personality he has for streams that make me stay away from his content. The way he acts attracts a lot of awful type of viewers too, which is evident with his twitch chat.
A little suggestion, do a short introduction of the guest of the video. It true that their name is on the video’s name but it helps to know who you are dueling
I love this series but what I love about this video is that you got a non Yugioh player to participate. Reminds me of teaching friends how to play when I was younger. Great vid!
It would be great if the flipped perspective only happens each turn. Keep it on the turn player, and use add the camera footage on top and bottom to clarify who’s who.
It looks like Alex threw game 2 for content. Wall pay 1000 on attack declaration would have caused Rarran to have more lifepoints and megamorph would cut darkfire dragon down to 750 instead of boosting it to 3000.
I understand why the modern game is the way that it is right now, but there's something about early yugioh where everything is much more generic that makes the incidental synergies more fun to discover. I think there's definitely a version of the game that uses tribal synergy as well as generic good stuff cards.
At 50:20, if Cimo activated the Wall of Revealing light, his LP would be lower causing Megamorph to halve the atk instead of double (750 atk vs the 1600 def monster) and it would have either cancelled the attack or if it went through then he'd win from battle damage.
Watching a non Yugioh player's though process while drafting was kind of fascinating. I hope I don't sound mean by saying that cause I'm really not judging him and I think he made overall very solid decisions for someone unfamiliar with the cards beforehand it's just interesting to see him evaluate the cards on the fly.
I wish that ygopro would keep track of how often a certain card is picked for a given cube so that new players can have a better time and also help the cube creators assess better
I think my only thing i wanted ranran to do differently was take dark dust spirit, torrential tribute(these could turn the tempo back in his favor in an undesirable position) and ha des(is great for keeping pressure). Other than that i have no complaints i feel like he did a good job of not falling for some of the bait cards in here and determining the strongest card choice. If i we're to grade his card choice in the draft id give him a 90% A. All in all really proud of ranran for his choices looking forward to seeing more of him in the yugisphere
I love the new series! This reminds me of trying to play arena style in Shadowverse and failing miserably, lol. I wish MD could program this as a game feature
I feel like Wall of revealing light is a little broken in this pool. It doesn't really seem like there's any spell/trap removal other than maybe a 1 of dust Tornado if you pick it.
This was epic. Sad to see Rarran's deck having almost no outs to the wall of revealing light. But he couldn't have known noblemen wouldn't work so its understandable
Cimo always refuses to give himself props lol When it comes to modern yugioh sure he might not have done much winning recently HOWEVER, when it comes to resource management & weighing the odds in the moment decision making Cimo is so good at it. We've seen him win so many games in masochist & other series simply because he played perfectly. Cimo is not below average in the slightest.
Man, watching Rarran's progress with learning the game reminds me of when i was a kid learning the game. He's doing well. Of course older formats are better for learning the game because of the simpler card design.
Cimooo had an out. Summon Zombyra in attack. Wait for him to attack Zombyra. If he uses Sasuke, the duel is determined by the coin toss. If he attacks with Darkflare, he can activate Wall of Revealing Light, pay 600, Megamorph will then make Darkflare's ATK become 750, and that's game.
Haven’t finished the video but seeing the guy roll THE DREAM goat line up of Thousand Eyes, Metamorphosis & the like is some insane beginners luck. Happy for him tho👍
Winning with 'effin Darkfire Dragon HAS to be the most Manga Ryu-Rarran thing to do in the history of Mugi the Yuglioh ☠️ Honestly, is this the first time ever Darfire Dragon wins a duel? Buddy literally passed on Jinzo and 2x BLSEotB what a L E G E N D 🔥🔥🔥
I like this idea, it's a lower ceiling format which is good for rarran as he's still semi new, by the end of the series he'll be one of us! Rarran, you may have had hate but the points you made actually made sense, I think that's why you've been embraced more by the community than act man, and cimooo gets to do a capitalism so everyone wins 😅

How frustrated were you when you found out that rarran could have had 2 BLS but chose to have none? Lol
Rarran was like joey with his luck most of this video

Rarran needs to play doto.. also, your description say subscribe to rhyme then tagged rarran..
"Fuck this guy" after rolling BLS twice while Cimo is desperately building for it himself and doesn't roll it once LOL.
He doesnt need him, he have the blessing of RNGesus
I can’t believe he passed up BLS twice. That’s a must grab for me
to be fair rarran did have amazing choices and just went with generic low level good stuff
@@anacreon212 almost all his other choices were good yeah
@@TehWhiteTiger not to mention he played pretty well for his experience level
I love how Rarran was just able to intuit the whole strategy of cyber stein OTK without even knowing the cards beforehand
The double 6 roll Roulette Barrel was hilarious, he really wanted to kill that Jinzo lmao
There is an alternate universe where Rarran could've OTKd Cimo by opening Cyber-Stein, Megamorph, and Creature Swap.
Rarran had a great start, then fumbled a lot in between but, just in general, he did good. That's something to be proud of, so congrats for giving this Draft a chance, you evolved so much.

Rarran, had 2 chances at the best card in GOAT format and said it was bad. I love this man.😂
To be fair, there was no bad pick in his first chance at it (Snatch Steal and Graceful Charity are both ridiculous).
@@moonjelly5Yeah, and those Spells are never dead whereas BLS probably would be dead with no light in grave
Plus, BLS is only good if you build around it, and im almost sure rarren had 3 light monsters at max
That is highly debatable about it being the “best card”.
Maybe the best monster. Card is a massive stretch.
You can't really blame him. He didn't know. Watch as he now knows it will never appear lmao
Cimo after drafting 40 removal cards:
"We're lacking removal"
honestly i gotta give big props to rarran he caught onto flip control and gamba like a true ygo player
No way. It actually happened. Cimo and Ramranch. The prophecy has been fulfilled.
They already played once.
18 naked duelists at Ramranch! Joseph checks out!
Hidden Valley ramranch plays yugioh?
They’ve played Edison before
@@MegaMetal96 Oh did they? Nice! Must have missed that,
Rarran is unofficially the wild card. I love seeing his perspectives of the game coming from a Hearthstone background, and his hot takes like saying “fuck this guy” about BLS with his flippant delivery sends me flying. I don’t care who wins, I just know this will be a fun match up to watch
In his deck, it was the correct call. He didn't have the light targets for it, really.
I think that, at least with non Yugioh players, explaining cards like Metamorphosis in advance is a good idea. That way they aren't so uncertain over Fiend Skull Dragon and Dark Balter type cards.
Agreed. Clarifying some things beforehand or even mid game would be better.
Yeah, that’s really the only thing that’s not immediately obvious with this draft pool
To be fair Metamorphosis & Lvl. Up were 2 cards that bent rules early on w/o explaining itself.
Seeing Rarran hit however many coin flips correctly and the double six on a die roll, I think he should go play the lottery.
average hearthstone skillset
RarraRNG talking about being Yugi Mutou, when he's actually Joey Wheeler.
I think Cimo just doesn’t want to work with Farfa
@@CD-zi6rb You lost bro?
@@Chaosfly10 Replied to the wrong comment 😩
"Two duelists" This is more like a gladiator verses a samurai. Both clearly fighters...but one is rather out-of-place.
Doubly so with the samurai flipping coins everywhere.
I'm actually really happy to see Rarran on this series, I know that this is part promo for his channel & goat format is a different world of Yu-Gi-Oh but after seeing him be so heavily against modern Yu-Gi-Oh the fact he said yes & seemed to actually be enjoying himself while playing it makes me happy. :)
Penguin Soldier driving fear into Cimo's heart in two separate series is cinema
Rarran reverses Cimo's overpowered luck with his own overpowered luck skill!
That’s that hearthstone rng carrying over 😂
Normally I would seethe cause he skipped BLS twice but the petty “fuck this guy” won me over 😂😂
The megamorph actually used like it was designed lmfaooo
I love Rarran, so glad to see this collaboration. Watching him draft reminds me of trying to interpret these unintuitive ass cards for the first time.
The double roll six was so funny, i always enjoy this wacky duels 😂.
Fantastic episode, one of the best of your channel imo.
I love how rarran started by dunkin on the game on its very real issues, and the community responded by helping him and including him in, that he slowly became one of us.

you can see ramranch isn't a yu gi oh player...he actually read the cards!
Think playing Sword Souls and his other decks paid off. XD
Haha reading funny
Rarran getting offered 2 Lusters is crazy, would have been a giant meme, but for the best he didnt know maybe ;)
I had no idea cimo was also a hearthstone legend! Rarran better watch out
If Cimo is Yugi with his protagonist powers, Rarran is Joey with that insane luck.
Crossover we actually needed.
Feels like watching endgame again.
Awesome episode
>Fairy Box is activated
>Memories of Progression Series rush back to Cimo
Love this series. Thank you for keeping up the amazing content you two
I cannot believe rarran has the ability to OTK through sheer dumb luck
I like Rarran. If he ever wants to do another episode I'd be happy to see him back!
Same.
Love seeing him play ygo.
RaWrrxD making it onto a Cimo series before Farfa is so funny to me.
I get the feeling Cimo just doesn’t like Farfa
@@CD-zi6rb Tbf, I don't like him either. He's acting like in a baby show (aka overacting) while also pretending he's smart, which is quite annoying. He doesn't even know what "Hot take" means (A take that would put you like the Tangled meme) or how to be sarcastic.
@@N12015 I think his scripted content is fine. It’s just the manchild personality he has for streams that make me stay away from his content.
The way he acts attracts a lot of awful type of viewers too, which is evident with his twitch chat.
@@CD-zi6rb Wait, that man child attitude is not an act? My Rah, he's worse than I expected.
i love the internet. a simple joke, turned into oh these guys hate each other to to dogpiling on farfa 🤣
Rarran played so well! The episode was so close and it was suuuuper entertaining, his gamba luck was insaaaaaane 😂
A little suggestion, do a short introduction of the guest of the video. It true that their name is on the video’s name but it helps to know who you are dueling
Great series it was awesome seeing someone not so familiar with yugioh play the game. Keep up the good work and thanks!
Rarran's takes on yugioh cards are actually so based
Why did Cimoooo not use wall of revealing light to lower his life points so that they were lower than Rarrans's during game 2?
Cimoooo had the 2-0 maybe he was giving rarran a chance and being a nice host!
@@Reporteddd Fair enough.
Someone teach this guy tearlaments so he can gamble at the highest level.
I love this series but what I love about this video is that you got a non Yugioh player to participate. Reminds me of teaching friends how to play when I was younger. Great vid!
Did I just witness a metamorphosis into Darkfire Dragon win a Game...
That's incredible! XD
Rarran doesn't believe in the heart of cards, he believes in RNGesus.
It would be great if the flipped perspective only happens each turn. Keep it on the turn player, and use add the camera footage on top and bottom to clarify who’s who.
Great series, this one was so fun! Rarran brings the newbie factor that I didn't know I would love watching hah.
It looks like Alex threw game 2 for content. Wall pay 1000 on attack declaration would have caused Rarran to have more lifepoints and megamorph would cut darkfire dragon down to 750 instead of boosting it to 3000.
I love how edditing (switche between pows) got a lot better in this episode. Kudos to the Editor!
Roulette Barrel has never been so complimented in its life
Today Cirno is dueling just literally Joey Wheeler apparently
… player new to learning the game… wins with luck based cards..
IS RARRAN OUR JOEY WHEELER?!?!!
I understand why the modern game is the way that it is right now, but there's something about early yugioh where everything is much more generic that makes the incidental synergies more fun to discover. I think there's definitely a version of the game that uses tribal synergy as well as generic good stuff cards.
first time reading his cards. that is 1 more time than most yugioh players. clearly an unfair advantage.
At 50:20, if Cimo activated the Wall of Revealing light, his LP would be lower causing Megamorph to halve the atk instead of double (750 atk vs the 1600 def monster) and it would have either cancelled the attack or if it went through then he'd win from battle damage.
Game 2 could just be titled “Cimo bullies Hearthstone Player™️ until Fairy Box gives him detention.”
(50:18) I'm sweating bullets for 0.5 seconds
You can tell he was having a lot of fun after game 2. THATS what Yugioh is all about!!
he has more game knowledge reading goat cards then most people who actually play
You could have paid 1000 with wall on attack dec to make your life points lower making mega morph halve the attack instead of doubling it in game two
Rarran may not be Yugi Muto, but dammit if he ain't Joey f*cking Wheeler.
Super fun episode. I'd love to see the opposite where Cimo plays against Ram in Hearthstone, that'd be a sight to behold
“Not this card, fuck this card” on BLS is INSANE 😂
19:50 you’re not sure if discard means to the Graveyard… like where would it go then?
Watching a non Yugioh player's though process while drafting was kind of fascinating. I hope I don't sound mean by saying that cause I'm really not judging him and I think he made overall very solid decisions for someone unfamiliar with the cards beforehand it's just interesting to see him evaluate the cards on the fly.
Ranch sauce: *reads horrible card* that seems insane *picks it over a top goat meta card*
While Cimo is obviously a more experienced duelist, it pains me to see how he could have lost several times if Ranran didn't make so many blunders.
I feel like this series needs a quick intro at the beginning to introduce the guest before hopping into drafting.
I wish that ygopro would keep track of how often a certain card is picked for a given cube so that new players can have a better time and also help the cube creators assess better

He did well considering, but this was still painful! Haha. Good effort Rarran 👏
Rarran drew absolute fire oh my god.
Would loved to see more Rarran here
Ramranch took every card that has rng, a true hearthstone player
Honestly rarrans ability to intuit and valuate cards is stunning for a non ygo player
Cannot believe you got the real life joey wheeler
Huge shoutout to Ramranch for reading equivalent to a whole novels worth of text
I feel like Wall of revealing light is a little broken in this pool. It doesn't really seem like there's any spell/trap removal other than maybe a 1 of dust Tornado if you pick it.
I laughed out loud when he read cyber stein and said “yeah, that seems pretty good”
Not taking Trunade for the Stein OTK is CRAZY. I would've picked it up just for the chance, even if they are all one-of's.
This was epic. Sad to see Rarran's deck having almost no outs to the wall of revealing light. But he couldn't have known noblemen wouldn't work so its understandable
rarran did well. It is really hard to draft in a format like this without knowing what the cardpool is like.
Cimo always refuses to give himself props lol
When it comes to modern yugioh sure he might not have done much winning recently
HOWEVER, when it comes to resource management & weighing the odds in the moment decision making Cimo is so good at it.
We've seen him win so many games in masochist & other series simply because he played perfectly. Cimo is not below average in the slightest.
Rarran looking absolutely destitute in the thumbnail, I love it.
duuuude watching him pass on bls and jinzo back to back was heart wrenching
Cimooo & Rarran combination is an instant click for me
Watching Rastafarian draft yugioh is so fun!!!!!
Man, watching Rarran's progress with learning the game reminds me of when i was a kid learning the game. He's doing well. Of course older formats are better for learning the game because of the simpler card design.

o i love all the yugio colabs with rarran
Rarran choosing Robbin Goblin over Phoenix Wing Wind Blast hurt a little bit
Cimo missed the wall of reveiling light to reduce his lp so megamorph halves the atk instead
Didnt know cimo was a hearthstone legend.
Rarran took the time to read all of the cards, that automatically makes him the best duelist on this channel lol
Winning with 'effin Darkfire Dragon HAS to be the most Manga Ryu-Rarran thing to do in the history of Mugi the Yuglioh ☠️
Honestly, is this the first time ever Darfire Dragon wins a duel? Buddy literally passed on Jinzo and 2x BLSEotB
what a L E G E N D 🔥🔥🔥
MBT was right, Cimoooo does need to be flown out for people to learn Yugioh
I like this idea, it's a lower ceiling format which is good for rarran as he's still semi new, by the end of the series he'll be one of us! Rarran, you may have had hate but the points you made actually made sense, I think that's why you've been embraced more by the community than act man, and cimooo gets to do a capitalism so everyone wins 😅
Drinking game everytime cimo say removal take a drink
