This is a HUGE step up to the last tutorials and this is even better than some of the big tcg tutorial vids that I have seen out there! Great job, Dan!
So it's sort of like Yu-Gi-Oh! best ideas mixed with Pokemon's best ideas. Cool!
This is why Elestrals will be so successful. Tutorial is 🔥
😂😂😂😂
Doesn't matter how good a tutorial video is (that not everyone will see).. it matters how good it's systems and design is.
So basically Yu-Gi-Oh with a resource system. Seems interesting!
The only thing I'm a bit iffy about is the card art/ the flavour. I don't mean to be rude, but the monster design is kind of unappealing compared to something like Pokemon or the cute/cool monsters in Yu-Gi-Oh.
So happy to have this to easily send to people interested in the game!
So..... its yugioh but much simpler?
More complicated IMO.
When yugioh launched it was brain dead, this seems like yugioh but adding the energy cards from poekmon
@@brutaldom It feels like a more fair version of yugioh. It also seems like it has a bit more strategy and actual thought required
@@brutaldom fundamentally, youre probably right.
But good luck getting into yugioh after immediently finishing a tutorial on how to tribute summon, and in your first game online you have to figure out in real time what it means for their rikka field spell to "tribute an opponents monster for the cost of your card effects", while they perform a 20+ step combo, each card with a wall of text.
This is coming from an avid competitive yugioh player who started playing in 2019. I like the game but the learners experience IS miserable if youre not a child with nothing better to do.
@@TEXfrowg lmao trust me bro I know what you mean. I played yugioh for years as a kid, I then played competitively on Yugioh Duel links app. I enjoyed it, until it got to the like half monster/spell cards, link summons and text so long it could be a chapter of a book.
I quit as it got to the point, was just silly
@@TEXfrowgNah,Yugioh is more complicated.& Ive been playing Yugioh since it came out.
This ended up done very well! Very simple to follow and love the use of the definitions at the bottom of the screen! Well done to you and the team!
Let’s go these video graphics etc. are amazing! What a great tutorial for new players!
Love the animations and production of this video! Super easy to understand and digest as well! Can't wait to check it out!
Thank you for checking out the guide! We're glad to hear you liked it!!!
Much easier to digest than the last one! Will be a lot easier to get my friends into the game, thanks for the great work Elestrals team! ❤
Oh my god, this whole time I’ve been playing it where the attack stat is how much damage is dealt to the spirit deck
Glad the new guide helped haha
Thanks for the video. The graphics for each card make it easier to remember them. I would ask for some strategy videos but other channels do that and there is now your weekly discord matches.
Tutorial is fantastic. Hope this gets more people interested in playing!
Okay I’m excited to get my hands on the cards I just bought
I worry about the mulligan rule, I feel like it constricts design space a little? Like, it prevents you from designing cards that care about how many spirits you have in your underworld, or alters the power/reliability of cards that interact with spirits in the underworld, etc. feels a BIT shortsighted IMO, constraining design space that could be used in future. Perhaps a different way of adding a cost to mulligans might be better.
We actually have some cards that care about that in set 2 and it’s not a problem. Losing those 2 spirits may allow you to get a better hand and activate an effect but that’s still 10% of your health!
@@Elestrals That's fair - if it's playing well even with cards designed around underworld interactions, with the current mulligan rule, that sounds very exciting :D Eager to try the game and bug my LGS about it ;)
Would love to play this game but I'm already deep into digimon
Digimon? I've been playing a lot of hearthstone for about 3 months, but DIGIMON??
@@SynohHeartstone is only on phones.Not something you can actually play irl.
@@Synoh Why so shocked? Digimon is great
@travisbuschette8609 the show is awesome, but the cardgame isn't
@@Synoh More cards for me then
This was amazing thank you so much
12/10 tutorial
@3:03 "Spirit spirit spirit spirit" 😂😂
Now I know how to play Elestrals but where is FA Exaltair?
Yu gi oh mix with pokemon
As a Yu-Gi-Oh fan, I'm very excited to begin playing Elestrals! Is it like Magic The Gathering?
Not at all. Much more like yu gi oh meets pokemon. It’s very creature heavy with cards that will likely see bans due to being broken. Drawing 2 for 2 life is good in magic and when you get get life back pretty easy in this game it seems like the meta will heavily favor locking your opponent from playing the game.
I think bans and rebalancing are going to be in this game’s near future.
Lightseekers TCG that’s basically yugioh and pokemon with some mana added
I'm interested in playing this game. How many elements are allowed in the main deck and spirit deck?
Up to 8! You have lots of freedom!
Is deck out still a possibility?
100% still possible.
Yes, we have a few cards that enable a mill strategy like Hummbust and Sinder
@@ElestralsBy this, do you mean the spirit deck? Or the main deck?
So ummm... whats Nexus? Like can you just move stuff around whenever, wherever, and as many times as you want in a turn?
Nexus requires an effect that says you can nexus and it means you move spirits from one card to another. Oftentimes this results in another effect happening too!
Good intro
First off, good video and second I have 2 questions. 1. So if I understand that correctly you can now freely nexus or did I miss smth? 2. You can expend 1 to draw 1, but wouldn't that make cards like Nectar kinda pointless? I mean you could just expend two anyway.
1. You still require a card's effect to Nexus, so you can't freely Nexus.
2. You can only Expend 1 to draw 1 once per turn. Also, doing so requires you to forgo Normal Casting, Normal Ascending, or Enchanting a Spirit from your Spirit Deck to an Elestral for that turn.
Hope this helps.
Game looks cute but doesn't seem for me, I wish you guys the best tho, we need more TCGs with good devs to rival MTG and YuGiOh that have become corrupted by greed, someone has to put them in their place!
Thanks for the kind words!
Hope you’ll reconsider one day!
...whats the benefit of ascending over just... normal casting the card?
You can’t normal cast a 2 or 3 cost Elestral, you have to ascend into it!

@@Elestrals Oh... sorry, the mobile game sorta just... let's you.
Do you have to draw a Spirit Card on every turn? I’m confused because of the 20 Spirit Card limit.
You can use your spirit deck freely thought out the game. It’s not something you have to draw
@@Elestrals Thank you!
I downloaded the App to try this game out and it was unplayable because everything was to small to read and nothing was allowing me to zoom in to be able to read what the cards do.
You can click on the cards to have them pop up larger and the settings have a zoom feature where you can adjust the scale!
@@Elestrals I was only in Tutorial mode and the only card that I could zoom in on was only the card that it is telling me to play. I'm guessing it will be more available in other game modes.
@@Elestrals I just tried Training mode and I was stuck on my opening hand. It was asking me if I wanted to do a mulligan but I couldn't see the cards in my opening hand to know if I liked them or not. I also tried out the screen size adjustment and that didn't help either because as the cards got bigger they also fell out of frame too.
Tutorial is a Work in progress as thr app is very much still in beta, this is solid feedback and similar feedback had already been shared with the team. As per your other comment the app isnt nativly supported in all aspect ratios at the current time. The UI scaleing can help bbut not all devices will it help with @randyrobineau2699
This is a bit to take in to learn for real 🙇🏻♂️
Join our discord.gg/Elestrals and someone can help you!
Sounds interesting!
Serious question; I see you guys have an kickstarter, will you also be going to gamefound? Because I would love to do an all-in pledge there, correction; just found out it was 2 years ago, well hopefully I can still find the starter decks then
KS edition has passed sad you only just found out. HOW EVER!!!! First edition(reprint of the base set) JUST RELEASED THIS WEEK!! you can pick up cards on the main website!!!
@@wertsTCG I noticed that on the site, that's so cool, will you guys eventually also use gamefound for now sets/starter & structure decks? Because again, gamefound offers so much kore palmentuin options for those who are interested, it's so much more customer friendly.
We need this turned into a game ASAP adrive whats the word on a game??? 😅😅😅😅😅
I AM DOWN FOR THE CLASH
Anyone know if theres a way to play this online
Yup join discord.gg/Elestals to learn more
Do you ship products to eu?
Yes we do! ShopElestrals.com
@@Elestrals Thank you very much!
this guide misses a lot.
what determines how much damage an elestral deals when it swings direct?
can a defense position elestral swing?
and the big one, when casting, do you randomly pull from spirit deck or do you look through it and pick?
is there a limit to spirits in the spirit deck?
kinda just ran through it tbh.
1.) the number of enchanting spirits on that elestral
2.) no, only Spinosect due to its unique effect
3.) you look through and pick, you have full autonomy to use your spirits how you want.
4.) 20 total spirits, no limit on which elements, most decks run 3+ elements
@@Elestrals tysm
Man really went and made a game out of fusing all of the Big Three's best features.
anime when?👀👀
So self mill as damage. Terrible. Creatures are useless. Just play burn spells.
If you tried the game you’ll see that’s not the case!
This looks really good.. However,
You seem to have combined the absolute worst elements of both Yu-Gi-Oh and Magic the gathering.
Ultimately ending up with a game that doesn't quite iterate enough on their gameplay to be considered unique.
Overall I think the presentation and promo are fantastic but I feel the game is fundamentally flawed.
I think to have a successful TCG in this day and age you need to have fresh ideas and fun gameplay - especially when your competitors have been around for decades now and can't change their games much.
Sorry to be such a party pooper but we already have a gazillion TCG's and I don't think this diversifies enough to hold gamers attention for long.
Your cards look amazing though and the marketing team are doing a terrific job!
I think you’re selling our spirit resource mechanic short. I feel very confident in how dynamic the gameplay develops to be with more cards added to the card pool. I appreciate the kind words otherwise and wish you the best!
@@Elestrals I think you mean "Complicated" rather than "Dynamic" but I'm more concerned with elements like "Normal and Special Summoning" the extra deck, 4 copies of each card, monster/spell zones all the boring things that are so core to old school TCG's... But nobody wants a new "Old school" they want something fun and modern!
It feels like you didn't realise that "old school" TCG's only exist today because of their FRANCHISE, not their gameplay mechanics. So why would you adopt such outdated systems? How many kids do you think actually play the Pokémon TCG these days? Yes there is a game, but people care far more about grabbing their favourite mons than they do about how many Ultra Super EX cards they can have in their deck.
Just look at Yu-Gi-Oh speed duels for example. It's a new format that improves DRASTICALLY on the traditional Yu-Gi-Oh game but only a tiny niche of the community enjoys it, despite being mechanically superior. It just won't catch on and that's fine for them because it satisfies that niche audience that wants to spend their money to play "old school Yu-Gi-Oh".
What I'm trying to get at is that I think you've created an amazing lovechild of Yu-Gi-Oh and Magic here and if that's what you want then you've certainly achieved it. But why would I play this when I could already play those other games that I already like? Because not to be brutal... but the everything but the art bores me because you're relying on 20+ year old rules in an age where the average attention span is 1/2 a second.
I would love to see you succeed but I don't see how you're going to stand out when your game doesn't innovate on anything.
I'd relish the chance to work with you on this and transform the product into something truly unique because I'm really not a hater! Just want to see you succeed so until then I'll keep an eye on this and wish you all the best.
What are they? Worst is subjective, please specify.
@@AyyyyyyyyyLmao I have to agree with you 100%. This is a Yugioh clone if I ever saw one. The graphics of the cards, the mat and the presentation are AMAZING! But at its core. It’s Yugioh with literally, monsters, spell, traps, special summons, attack position, defense position. Same rules for battle. Attack position dies, it takes the difference in ATK (runes in this case). Defense doesn’t take damage. Can attack life points directly. This borrowed so heavily from yugioh it’s shameful to even pretend it doesn’t. I respect the hustle nonetheless if you just want to make a yugioh game with a fresh set of paint and a new universe but let’s not beat around the bush here. It’s yugioh with slightly different resourcing where your LP are also a resource. Changing that one thing doesn’t make it stand out in an otherwise sea of card games. People that play yugioh have invested too much to change and the people that don’t play it don’t play it because they don’t like the gameplay. Anyways, give the guy who made the presentation a raise for sure. Compliments to the artists involved in this game, the colors are absolutely stunning. But I’m afraid it’s not at all going to make it past the 2 year curse. I give it 3 max. 9 months at the least.
Hate much 😂
Just play mtg instead
Yugioh copy
You can't even write a competent bio for your channel why should anyone care about your opinion on a card game you've never played?
The app never works for me
