I really love how they’ve expanded this series. At the beginning it felt like they’d just play Yu-Gi-Oh the same way every time, taking decks from historical lists over time, but now they’re showing us how the game has grown and changed in both deck building and in the mechanics, as well as in the way the game is played! This is amazing and it really shows how the game has changed and grown over time!
Exactly! This series started as just progression series but with all the staples at 3, and then evolved into the History of competitive Yugioh. Absolutely love this series.
@@brendanreamer4507 This is far from progression series. Auction and Sealsed whodown on the other hand are just copies of progression. They are all just sealed series. Which is why History is by far my favorite since it's completely different from the other content Cimo provides.
@@pandaman1331 yes. As I said in my comment, it started like progression. They didn't really go through the actual history, just talked about the powerful strategies in each set. The History we have now is the result of a lot of trial and error on their part. I love it.
I feel like one element is for the TCG pre the documentation that started in like 2005 there’s not much to say just 1 or 2 powerful cards in side products
@@brendanreamer4507 I'm pretty sure they've clarified that the start of Yugioh wasn't super well documented with super detailed decklists. A good portion of "competitive" was just good stuff decks and a handful of strategies that have been newly labbed due to people revisiting older formats. They could do "revisionists history of Yugioh" (and they have for a few formats) where people have found new secret sauces and better modern deck building inclusions based on what was available in the cardpool at the time.
Was very weird to have Joseph open packs without his little channel music theme playing. And chat spamming AMOGUS off to the side.
AMOGUS
It's probably for the best so you wouldn't see HardLeg trolling the audience with SJW trash.
@@RaceBandit are the sjws in the room with us right now?
@@RaceBandit L
@@RaceBandit trolling you with this ratio
Really cool to see you guys exploring battle packs, even if it does just turn this into an episode of sealed showdown lol
My thoughts trash
more enjoying than most sealed showdown episodes tbh
a lot of sealed showdown sets rn are snoozefests
Much better than sealed
This makes me wanna catch up on Sealed Showdown now wtf
Alex missed the combo by using Alector to negate his Goblin attack force's effect to just have a 2300 beater under skill drain
Oh shoot, I didn’t see that. Nice catch.
It's funny, because he even read Alector's effect out loud, so I was like "oh that's a pretty sweet combo he put in his deck" but nope.
Yo... Can we get like a one off Cimo and company battle pack draft? That would probably be a nightmare to schedule but seeing the hosts come together and show off what is my favorite part of any card game (Drafting) would be an amazing watch...
I second this, sounds great. Draft is the most fun part of any card game imo.
So Cimo, MBT, RJB, Ruxon, Gage... how many more do we need for a yugioh draft? Get Farfa in there for value?
The Crossover Series
@@ThisAintAStupidName or get their editors and such in on the fun for a full on draft tourney
farfa would win the whole thing though
Joseph really out here invoking prog multiple times even though Sealed Showdown exists.
Also speaking of invoking, RIP Auction Series. May it rest in peace.
It's weird bc Auction Series consistently gets about 20% more views than Sealed Showdown
Oh well
He said he's working on a new series so that'll take its place I guess
@@LikeTheBirb I think Auction Series got the axe due to the extra editing required vs Sealed Showdown.
I hope Ruxin can come back for the new series, he's such a nice guy
Plus Sealed has already made it pretty far compared to the other 2 series that have been cut indefinitely, Sealed Saturdays and Auction. If Sealed Wednesday and Auction were switched in terms of which came first, there's a possibility it would have been Sealed that would have been axed instead. But also, Sealed actually a progression thing going for it, every set until the end of current Yugioh. Auction was just random
Cimo read half a card, the second half cost him the entire game but he's learning!
he even couldn't understand how it works afterwards. It protects from 1 battle but he treated it as Negate Attack 🤣
@@yazanabbadi4247 He forgot about wind-up soldier's effect too. Could have gotten over the zenmeister in game three
@@illdoittomorrow2368 no, cuz zenmaister was 2500. It gains 300 for each material attached.
@@yazanabbadi4247 Oh, yeah, you're right. I can't read cards either
Cimo seems to use Swords of Revealing Light as a last resort/when he’s losing. But isn’t it stronger to use it when he’s in a winning position? He kept losing monsters in the third game because he didn’t use swords and that put his board presence behind. Swords is a good offensive card because your monsters can go attack freely while your opponent’s monsters cannot retaliate.
I agree with you, but Cimo's mindset while playing the game is always "how do I stay alive" rather than "how do I end this game" it makes him much better at older control style Yugioh but he rarely ever over commits on a board that might win the game.
@@benjaminsmith8377 That's why he enjoyed lots of control decks more than combo decks in the modern formats. Last time i remember he was playing competitively he was playing Trickstar Sky Striker, which is basically a control deck in its finest.
After watching progression and history for 1.5+ years it's really obvious that cimo is much more of a defensive/passive/control player. He very rarely plays an agro style.
Yeah i understand not playing all the backrow egen heavy is around. But it is infuriating sometimes with His plays
yeah same I definitely would have Swords + Set Dekoichi but he came up wwith some interesting pulls
Battle Pack had an impact because of the reprints of some good cards. Duality, TGU, Forbidden Chalice, etc all got reprints.
“That’s what I get for not reading the rest of shield warriors”
*proceeds to still not read the rest of shield warrior.
So can you explain Shield Warrior, because it reads like it has a typo?
"During damage calculation, in either player's turn: You can banish this card from your Graveyard; monsters you control cannot be destroyed by this battle."
It says monsters, plural, cannot be destroyed by this battle. "This battle" means it's only a one time protection for a single attack. So how would it protect your other monsters that aren't the attack target? Even cards that can attack multiple times still treat each attack as a separate battle.
@@kyuubinaruto17 Extremely niche case, but there are ways to redirect attacks, and some allow two monsters on the same side to attack each other.
@@DarkKnight179 Makes sense. Thank you.
I would love for Yugioh to have a newer and revamped drafting set, and official tournament backing for it, seems like a ton of fun.
It would require a different approach to how Konami design cards, but yes.
@@alfredosaint-jean9660 or something similar to battle pack 3's special rule but for archetypes
If Deck Build Packs weren't so heavily slanted towards the Ultra Rares, they'd be decent candidates for this. Genesis Impact is distressingly close to being a fun limited format, except Live Twins don't have their link monsters, Drytron can't actually ritual summon, and magistus only have half of their maindeck monsters.
@@ungulatemanalpha I think a draft set should always be a thought of and be made specifically with draft in mind. Things like archetypes are hard to build in draft, most archetypes need a lot of different cards, mostly in multiples and thats hard in draft. Good stuff is kinda like the BP:ED, just pull all the good cards, and fill with mediocre cards. It will be a hard job, but maybe one day.
@@ungulatemanalpha There's a custom pack building option on the pack opening site. I'm sure a community could get together and put something together more modern.
3:30 Draft
9:30 Deck List / Breakdown
23:05 Duels
tnx~
There were TWO crucial errors during game one that could've give Cimo the victory.
At 29:08 Ape Fighter attacked so even its attack was negated he declared an attack so his ATK boost doesn't go away.
And Also at 29:08 Shield Warrior only makes (1)! monster indestructible by battle for (1)! attack, NOT all monsters and NOT for the entire battle phase because you can only discard it during the damage calculation and it reads """Monsters you contron cannot be destroyed by THIS battle""" not THIS battle phase and it only works for that attack or "battle".
In the second case I'm pretty sure he just didn't want to attack with goblin and switch it to DEF if he didn't have game. And there's no point in only attacking with leviathan since treeborn will just come back next turn. At least that's how I interpreted it.
Also game 3
Cimoo could have targeted his own Goblin Attack Force with his Alector, to negate its effect to switch battle positions
@@gingsSon he had game by just flipping call of the haunted in the battle phase
@@gingsSon Reborn is not going to back, MBT has a backrow.
In game 1 Cimo could still continue attacking the Treeborn with Leviathan and hit directly with Goblin, or vice versa, since it only protects the monster for that single battle and not whole battle phase, but anyway...
Also the ape fighter wouldn't have lost atk, because it only needs to battle to keep the atk
He didn't read the whole shield warrior. He thought it protects the monster for the whole turn, when it's just one time.
Even if that was intentional, it kind of made sense. He was going for game, and losing an attack meant he could only deal 2500, and Goblin would've been switched to defense. Mbt would've gotten Treeborn back the next turn, so I get that Cimo may have been prioritizing board presence over damage at that moment.
@@quietlia9614 Nahh, he would have had game right there. He can just use COTH to deal the rest of the damage, he should've won that 1st game
@@quietlia9614 call of the hounted for the gorilla dude + Leviathan is 4300, it was game
Anytime I see MBT with Insect Knight, I'm so happy. He's kind of like his mascot/spirit card
if cimo negates his own Goblin Attack Force with the Alector it would've been able to stay in attack
This was a banger. Honestly I'd love to see a Battle Pack Cimo Series.
That was sweet there was an interaction with the goblin attack force where cimo could have negated it with the bird so it wouldn’t go to defense lol
Ooh imagine this, but as like a full series. And with every set. And with Nymmnim instead of MBT!
Nah that would be crazy
hmm but they dont keep the same cards week to week... I think RJB0 would be better suited to host the show
This is incredibly fucking BASED! The set that got me back into yugioh!
This was such a good idea to do. An amazing episode. It also shows there is much to explore when it comes to Yu-Gi-Oh, probably enough to make several new series. Battle packs and tournaments packs are an obvious pick, as well as the history of OCG formats. I would personally love to see video games explored a bit more, maybe a series where they go through each game, have the whole card pull available and get to make a deck out of those cards.
This was such a cool match! Would definitely love to see some more of this format, or something similar.
Something I noticed, At 39:35, Cimo could've negated Goblin with Alector to keep it in attack position, which would've made a huge difference. Parshath wouldn't have contested Goblin so Cimo could've kept it. That might have won him the match.
I really liked this one, it was great seeing Joseph and Alex do Sealed play. Great work guys!
I didn't know this was an invasion of sealed showdown. I do think it'd be cool if Konami explored sealed more often, even if they didn't integrate it into YCSs and the like.
I judged a 128 player BP side event at a YCS (Barcelona IIRC) and it was a total blast, a very good memory.
This was great! Limited draft formats are a ton of fun. I used to go to lots of limited mtg draft events.
I remember this set dropping shortly after my friends and I got back into the game and it was so much fun. All the reprints and classic cards, it was great! I bought dozens and dozens and dozens of these packs 🤣
wasnt that incredibly expensive? i didnt play at the time but id imagine one draft costs you like 80 bucks each?
@@jakobendres3771 I don't remember if this was for only BP 2 and 3, but you used to be able to get sets of 10 packs of these for like 15-20 pounds with 1 of a series of mats in it. So all you'd need is a couple friends to pick up one each and you could get a little round robin tournament going. God it was a blast :D
Awesome crossover with Sealed Showdown and Progression Series guys. You always find ways to make exploring this game's history so fun, this was a great surprise episode.
Damn I can't believe they did this for an actual main event.
This is like to qualify for the current nationals you had to show off your 2002 skills with a drafted game of Legend of Blue Eyes.
Ive been playing battle packs with my friend for months, so happy you visited this neat format!
Oh man this brought back memories. I came 33rd at YCS Sheffield, drawing my last round feature match because I attacked into a Gorz.
39:32 Cimo couldv've used Alector to negate Goblin Attack force's effects so he would stay in ATK position. Cool little missed interaction there
Looks like a fun format. Lot of interaction back and fourth, those are the games we live for
This was such a fun episode
Since you guys are dipping into side formats like dueling network and draft, i think itd be also rad to see eps on fan formats like highlander and trinity
I would unironically love to see more content like this - maybe you could make a custom draft set to combat the issues seen in Battle Pack with the high rarity blow out cards, and feature some fun janky cards?
My first YCS top 16 was unfortunately under this format and I ended up losing to Billy Brake because I had no clue how to draft in Battle Pack format. He was running 60 card Dark with Beginning of the End and I was confident my deck was more competent at this event.
Any way, it's a great concept, but it was weird to mix it into a constructed premier event
I started this series about 2 months ago and I finally caught up today and let me say this has been so entertaining and you guys are Amazing! #TeamMBT the way he explains Yu-Gi-Oh shows just how much he loves the game and its awesome!
This is my favourite History episode I've seen in quite a while. Very well done!
I just want to thank you guys! I loved playing Yugioh back then and this format is such a weekly highlight for me.
UMATCHED BATTLE PROWESS!!!!! hilarious, brought back the seriousness of his presence in the demise game.
Wind-Up Soldier has an effect to boost its attack by 400. 42:20
Battle Pack sealed was one of the few formats I’ve enjoyed playing. You actually play games, you don’t get locked out t1 and it was such a huge departure from constructed. And sealed rewards a different skill set than constructed. It was such a different way to play yugioh that I don’t think is appreciated by a lot of players. Thank you for this episode!
I don't know how I came to this series last amongst all your playlists. But as only a casual yugioh player, I just wanted to say for me this series defines the yugioh community. Love you MBT and Cimooo!
That was definitely hilarious.
I don’t know if I would ever really watch the progression series or sealed showdown, but it was definitely a nice change of pace.
I really liked seeing this set in action.
My friends and I have a yugioh cube and this is so much cleaner than what our cube often accomplishes.
I hope you guys show off the other battle packs as you get to them
I'm honestly surprised that Yugioh tried this so late (reletively speaking) in its life cycle. Coming from MTG within the last year I guess i just assumed that there was some kind of limited equivalent in Yugioh that either never took off in the game's start or just a small but dedicated community kept doing ala progression series. it also strikes me as wierd that the packs are so small. a 30 card deck out of a 50 card sealed pool is insanely tiny coming from magic's 40 card decks from a 90+ card sealed pool but i guess thats a benefit of not having to balance around colors and mana costs.
You did mention draft which is an all time favorite format of mine as well and i think it would be a disservice to all watchers to not have some kind of draft pod with swiss play, i just got to see what i've missed in terms of Yugioh's history!
Battle Pack: Epic Dawn is one of my favorite packs of all time, honestly. Just so many fun things to put in decks and good reprints for stuff that was hard to get a hold of.
I sure do hope the other two Battle Packs don't shit the bed entirely! :)
This was awesome so cool to see can we get more of these episodes with battle packs so cool to see you guys deck build
Seeing Prideful Roar being used on Mobius, who is on the card art, was something I really loved
That was a pretty cool episode. I wouldn't mind seeing more Battle Pack shenanigans in History of Yu-gi-oh, personally. I know it was more to examplify the concept and that future battle packs are kind of the same, but why not?
Also, do you plan to do an episode about that one or two events where they played the Pegasus Challenge? That would be hilarious.
The auction series was nice at first, but I’m not sad to see it gone if it means it will be replaced by another series. Nice duels this episode!
Coming to the end of Zexal was when I quit Yu-Gi-Oh.
So this is going to be some new history uncovered for me.
End of Zexal is a year later.
@@furkanekkiz7611 I'm sure that's coming sooner than you think ;)
Yes I hoped they'd do these at least for an episode I loved these things I wished they would've kept em around tho
This episode was amazing. Do more of these draft set episodes!
Seeing Cimo play Pot of Greed on the opening turn propably gave Joseph war flashbacks
At 39:29 did anyone else notice the spicy tech Cimo could have dropped? He could have used his Alector, Sovereign of Birds to negate Goblin Attack Forces effect to keep it in attack mode 😈😈😈
This makes me wish there was a community which created battle packs based on this and newer cards. Would make a really fun online format
The last pack was 3 by Konami and a rule was made that every card was every type to make more cards playable
Wow we need more of this. Somehow battle packs have given the best games so far in the whole series 👏
I remember doing one of these tournaments as a side event once, and ended up losing to a friend on the bubble because I forgot that Enemy Controller was temporary unlike the Big Eyes that were running amuck at the time.
Joseph was so enchanted by insect knight’s battle prowess that he overlooked the fact that his tokens were ideal materials for leviathan dragon.
You can't overlay tokens.
@@furkanekkiz7611 oops
Game 1 was literally just Cimo being your average Yugioh player, not reading cards and going yep buttons
I guess you could say Alex's ego was less than Joseph's pride. XD Well played, both of you!
Used to love playing Alector in Tag Duels with Black Garden and Naturia FruitFly. You could have used Alector to negate Goblin Attack Force effect [and chainsaw insect too if you played it] so you can attack without going to defence mode.
51:12 this is how I feel with current YGO, feels like a test instead of a game
This episode was nutty. Probably the single best episode in a WHILE.
Man I wish Battle Packs were still a thing. They are just a lot of fun.
I loved the joseph mimicking gage at the start
you can see the power of the extra deck in this match, very nice episode., i played during this format it was fun, this pack was nice for players with not a lot of money to get some powerful card in low rarity
Good episode. This battle pack has a great selection.
300k special soon? You could bring all hosts for a tournament or something
I'd love to see that. Go HAM on it and have them do promos like they do in WWE.
I really hope that you decide to play the other two battle packs down the line. I’ve studied a lot of MTG and how they make their limited environments and it’s really interesting to see what Yugioh tried to do in that space
I was there in San Diego that year. It was fun. I went 8-2 that Saturday, I got lucky and got the good stuff ;)
It didn't matter, but Ape Fighter only loses its boost if it doesn't attack, not if it doesn't destroy a monster
Ah ycs sheffield. My first and only top 16/day two ycs.
Then again. At the time we only ever had 2 ycs before i stopped playing.
Ah Cimooo, you dropped this: "With" 30:05
As a MTG player, magic limited formats almost always have archetypes designed into the set, especially for limited play. The problem Yu-Gi-Oh has versus MTG in a limited format I expect would be the color wheel. Magic limited formats inherently sway players away from certain colors of cards, though there is always the option to splash for a powerful off color power card, which means in sealed, you'll play your strongest and deepest color pools, and in drafts as you monitor card packs passed to you, you can get an idea of the cards/archetypes your seating neighbours are in by the colors/rarity/relative power level of cards remaining in a pack. If the person passing cards to you is drafting Green/Black for instance, you'll just notice that your card options would consist mainly of the other 3 card colors, and you'll be de-incentivized to take Green or Black cards unless a power card comes your way, at which point you could hate draft it or draft planning to splash it.
YGO draft seems much closer to cube drafting (custom draft pool), but even then due to the lack of color wheel identity/restrictions the only incentive to Draft play would be to always take the most powerful card available with very few other considerations.
Yo the animated cards in the intro?? That's dope as heck
Ah, BP Epic Dawn. Aka, the pack you bought in bulk in hoping to pull the $150 Tour Guides and rejoicing today for all the staples that came off the banlist. *(Raigeki, HFD, Monster Reborn, Snatch Steal for that one weird 2015 format)*
Phew, Joseph almost ignored Insect Knight's unmatched Battle Prowess.
Good old caveman Yugioh, kinda my preferred style if Im honest. And ya, Yugioh has a hit a point where, unironically, you can pretty much play off a flowchart. You aren't gonna top doing that, but you can get pretty damn far doing it.
BP was crazy. People were buying those like crazy to get tour guide playsets. Most people had a monarch deck at that point from buying a shitton of BP packs.
What a great divergence. Love this stuff guys. Great content and commentary.
This was so sick. They should bring back battle pack draft as an alt format along with the stuff they announced, I would totally play an event like this.
Alector can even negate your own cards, like the goblins in this case. Had so much fun with this card in early duel links
imagine not using effect negation on your own goblin attack force
I remember this ycs san diego, and I also remember it was filled with cheaters, sometimes if they lost in rounds they will lend their cards to their friends that were still in to ensure they moved on to later rounds
39:34 took me a moment to realise Cimoo could have negated his own attack forcej
What happened to the auction series on Thursday? I watch all of your shows but the auction series is my favorite so when it didn't pop up in my feed I cried and cried and cried.
Maan I remember buying these after school with my friends, because they were relatively cheap and still had really useful and iconic cards in it. Especially for our mediocre decks.
Really thought I had grown desensitized to Joseph failing to pronounce words properly, but hearing his Tanngrisnir... Oh boy.
Big bang shot with zef. Is bonkers. Equip BBS to opponents monster bounce BSS to summon zef. Thus getting rid of the monster for free. Then if you want equip BBS to zef for a 2k beater with piercing
I have the ra mat from the battle pack set i got...like 7 years ago...i wish i knew about sealed back then i could have played this way
Can't wait for this to get to 2020: Progression Series | The History of Yugioh.
Real talk, maybe it's cause I love cube/limited (MTG or YGO), but I'd love seeing more of the Battle Pack Sealed on here!
and yes I like Sealed Showdown too but that can make for some saccy, repetitive games - this set was particularly good and engaging gameplay
Please do one more episode of this!!
Missed opportunity from Cimooo: He could have used Alector to negate his own goblin attack force (because he wasn’t doing anything else with it)
I for one would love to see more sealed packs from Konami. It’s really interesting and makes you think on the fly to build your deck, really cool. I’m actually considering picking up the GX speed duels box just to draft it w friends!
This is historic episode. Cimo vs MBT... And they build the deck themselves????? :O
Cimoo new series, 7+1 Cimoo in a Weekly Battle Pack showdown and the winners (and Cimoo) get a Return each week.
This episode was awesome. Wish we still had sets like this.
