Back in the late 2000s, I once hit 6 out of 7 of the 30% scrolls on a Green Scarab. I think at the time, it was the highest atk scarab to ever exist in Scania at 64 atk. I hit the first 4 and failed the 5th time but it didn't break. I could have sold it like this but I decided to yolo the last 2 upgrade slots with two more 30%. To my surprise, I hit them both. It was one of the happiest Maplestory moments I have ever had. Me and my Maplestory friends were so hyped. After a few minutes, I smegad the claw to try and sell it. I remember the FM room me and my friends were in instantly got super crowded because the whole server wanted to see the claw. There was even a spam chat bidding war from the people who wanted to buy it. The highest offer I got, if I remember correctly, was I think 2.1bil. The most mesos I've ever had was 400mil. So I decided to sell it to the bidder. The next day someone whispered me inquiring about the claw. He told me his friend wrote my name on a piece of paper after my smega so when he gets on he can message me because he needed a GG claw. I told him I sold it already. He asked how much. I told him that I sold for 2.1bil. He was sad and he told me that he would have paid 4bil+ for it. I felt so sad because I could have gotten more than what I sold it for. This moment taught me something useful in life, and that is to be more patient and not act on an impulse. This was one of my best memories of Maplestory. I miss this game and my Maplestory friends!
If it makes you feel any better I once bought a Purple Surfboard off some dude, I traded like 3 years worth of items for it & spent like $300 as well, lol. Then rumors came that an event was coming where the PSB would be re-released (I was in Scania & had 1 of only 2 PSBs in existence). I had never had good items before so I didn't understand how the max meso thing worked, I always thought if an item was in a shop for max mesos & I even had 1 meso on me it couldn't sell. I went to sell it off before it became worth much less & I got offers of up to $20B. I had it in my shop for 2,147,483,647 mesos (the max) & thought it couldn't be bought... I was wrong. A guy that had been on my buddylist for years bought it, then ghosted me forever, I think changed his username. While I did have 2B I probably traded like $4~$5B + $300 to get it in the first place, big loss, lol.
4:10 I always called it the dice at the start of the game is nexon communicating that this is a gambling game. Ppl didn't even see it that way but that's literally what maplestory is
I was too young to really understand these systems when I played Maplestory as a kid, great to know I had such a close brush with the gambler's fallacy
My good man. Congratulations on making the finest Maplestory video essay on TH-cam. It's the perfect blend of nostalgia, current events, humor and information. Every time I've typed "Maplestory video essay" in, this video is what I was looking for. Bravo
yoo i finally clicked on this vid seeing this on my page for a few days, and i don't regret it lmao, keep it up, we need more maple land content its actually entertaining
Apologising for the length? Hell naw, this video was top notch! So glad you have game audio as well, I miss the old sound effects so this brings me much joy
Pretty amazing that not only a Maple Story video has so many views in 2024 🍁 A long-form meta-analysis of the gameplay psychology is on my top 10 YT recommendations
Way way back when I was able to godly scroll a maple claw. I was a bishop and I had tons of extra meso due to letting people leech so to pass time while I advertised I would scroll random stuff and sell it. I went through thousands of items but I was able to do the maple claw and I'm sure it's still in rotation today if windia still exists. Hit 6 of 7 attack 10% and I had so many night lords begging me to sell it to them. Can't remember exact price but it was an astronomical amount back then in the billions and mesos weren't easy to come by. Never hit that many in a row again and I did surf boards too, sauna robes when those were all the rage and the work gloves. Pretty sure I supplied many early thieves with gear in the early 2000s. Wanted to get back into maple but haven't played since 09 and honestly from the videos I've watched it's nowhere close to the same any more so I would not enjoy it anymore especially at my age.
passing 2 10% in a row on a dex bamboo at KPQ was my best scrolling moment. The ACC was nuts for a warrior at that level. I think I ended up passing a 3rd 10% by the end of it. I sat on that Bamboo hat for soooo long. I really know that feeling of the korean guy trying to land 4x 10%.
theres something so surreal of a man throwing away (A LOT) money away and screaming at a screen over something so unlikely to happen. the thing is… i know a lot of people do this off stream where no one can see.
30% scrolls were always my go to in OSMS. That +20% chance made godly items more attainable but the 50% boom made it more spicy. Nothing quite like blowing up your perfect +3 item that is worth half a bil
watching that streamer made me think of dr stone ryusui who bought everyone out before they even established themselves XD fun vid look forward to more!
i tried logging into maple story on my acc i played pre big bang heavy and only a little afterwards to sadly discover it has been deleted for inactivity....sigh had a bunch of 11atk gloves lol
My scrolling strat was to have a bunch of trash scrolls and items that I used in the hopes that those would fail so the probabilty for the scroll I wanted to work would go up. Now I'm not sure if that actually makes any difference but I did manage to create the only 10 attack work gloves in the maple europe beta with very low resources and no free market.
I only ever get to like level 20 something back in maple story's 1st year, but this video is awesome I love learning about how other korean MMOs do upgrade systems lol. They all screw you over in different ways
Now they have protection scrolls and all sorts of other things to make scrolling easier. I know back in v.62 you just pray. My scrolls were only used if i was falling. That was my "trick" lol
You legit unlocked a very old memory for me. WAYY back in the day I wanted to scroll one of my robes with overall int 10% and 9/10 passed I felt like I legit hit the lottery was one of the best feelings I ever had.
I mean if you don't belive me thats just a you problem really, at the end of the day all I'm doing is just sharing a memory from nearly two decades ago. My memories dont get invalidated just because you don't belive it.
No one is invalidating your memory, but it’s a you problem if you expect people to believe your story without reasonable proof. Especially considering that it happened to you as a kid, it’s very likely you’re exaggerating. For you to understand the likelihood of your story being true you’re saying you landed 9 10%’s IN A ROW. This is 0.1^9 which is a 1 in 10,000,000 (that’s 1 in 10million) chance. And you’re saying you got that in 1 and only first try. If it did indeed happen. Well, good for you. You indeed got lucky to the point it’s comparable to winning the lottery.
@@Overdragoon never expected anyone to belive me, i simply shared a memory speaking to the void so to speak while reminiscing about the old days watching this video. But man you are thinking way too deep about something that does not even matter anymore. You want Proof that I got absurdly lucky as a child from 17 years ago, from a account long since deleted by nexon from one of its many inactive account sweeps These are times long past and your really gonna go into the um actually☝️🤓 technicalities like a joyless divorced dad. It's really weird honestly
I truly don't understand how people can enjoy watching those over the top game streamers. Whether in Korea or any country, when the streamer just YELLS the whole time it's a no from me. I much prefer calmer, measured narration.
I don't know for how long I'd enjoy it, but this video got me HYPED! xD (screaming gamble) Also the fact that he shouts stuff like Scroll of a thousand kings and sht xD
its funny how you all said its gambling the scrolls passing rate, what you all dont know is that the scroll always came with the answer inside the scroll data, its either shown as pass or failed, my friend hosted a private server for maplestory and he found out that the scrolls are not really gambling, the day when you get the scrolls, already decided the pass or failed status

I remember having the best wg's in the euro beta server with 10 atk, I also ruined a 10 dex 8 slot sauna tho.

Bro before reading all your comment, i knew the 2b is too low and you are gonna regret it

Awesome story!

bro gave us a documentary on 10% scroll
Epic
fr 😂😂😂
VICE maple
This was randomly recommended to me on my feed and I'm glad I clicked it.
Same here
These scrolls made it clear to me from an early age that I wasn't a gambler and also that lady luck wants nothing to do with me.
I was too young to really understand these systems when I played Maplestory as a kid, great to know I had such a close brush with the gambler's fallacy
This video is great bro. I genuinely miss this old mmo, so videos like this make me happy.
Scrolling gear is one of my favorite game mechanics in an MMO tbh. When you see a godly item it really means something
This video is legit by far the best MapleStory video i saw in a long time, if not the best ! i now follow you 100%
Look up togain. He has hour long osms documentaries
100% is pretty cool, but 10% is truly goated
@@I-VisiBomb-I this guy learns
found you from the last video, i didnt even know maple worlds existed im so invested in this lol
This was so goddamn entertaining. That streamer’s energy was hilarious.
My brother cried when I lost his Icies in a drop game 😂
@@Isseki_Nicho hahahhaa this comment brought back memories. Thanks for the cheap lols
Woww I totally forgot about icies. they took that out of the reboot
My good man.
Congratulations on making the finest Maplestory video essay on TH-cam.

Every time I've typed "Maplestory video essay" in, this video is what I was looking for.
Bravo
I dont even know what I am doing here, I have never even played this game but I kept watching. Nice editing and humor :)
This brought back so much nostalgia dude. Excellent video haha
this was an amazingly put together video. enjoyed every minute of it.
I started my search with making a list of stupidly rare items in MMOs and somehow ended up watching a Korean dude scream.
This video flashes all my teenhood back.. I would say... This is singlehandedly the BEST OG MapleStory review. SUBSCRIBED!
Fantastic video my dude, great editing
watching that dude gamble that hard is depressing ngl
yoo i finally clicked on this vid seeing this on my page for a few days, and i don't regret it lmao, keep it up, we need more maple land content its actually entertaining
most calm korean gaming experience
I got a 4 x 10% back in 2006 but it was a level 30 1-H axe so it doesn't worth much. I bought those scrolls for 10k each from people doing Kerning PQ.
I love this video, its so thrilling. Underrated, the gambling could be a whole series and I would watch it HAHAHA
This was my first video that I've seen from your channel, and it was amazing! Keep it up man
I was utterly engrossed by this video.
Apologising for the length? Hell naw, this video was top notch! So glad you have game audio as well, I miss the old sound effects so this brings me much joy
landing a low % scroll (10% or 30%) is a high i chase in my personal daily life
30% scrolling was the most addicting thing ive ever done
Broo just found your channel and of course you're local lmao, I feel like Vancouver/Richmond/Burnaby had so many Maplers compared to other MMOs

rocking Chaos scrolls on Facestompers is the real deal
Yo did homie just throw a melee interaction in there?!?!
A ma of culture
Omg the Gurren Laggan music at the end :')
theres something so surreal of a man throwing away (A LOT) money away and screaming at a screen over something so unlikely to happen. the thing is… i know a lot of people do this off stream where no one can see.
As old school beta player for Maple this was a great nostalgic watch! Thanks
I gotta say, I enjoyed this nostalgic series!
part 2, HELL YEAH BRO! fire ep fr fr 🔥🔥
30% scrolls were always my go to in OSMS. That +20% chance made godly items more attainable but the 50% boom made it more spicy. Nothing quite like blowing up your perfect +3 item that is worth half a bil
oh man, i felt like i was back in 2003 again watching this. SUBSCRIBED!!!
This is the most entertaining shit I've in a while lol I'm so hyped atm
Reminds me sweet Lineage 2 times, where usual non-expensive scrolls destroyed item, in case enchanting fail.
That was super fun to watch!
this video reminded me how stressful it was back in the day lol. i don't think i'm at the age of handling this stress anymore
scrolling was the equivalent of gambling in vegas for me in my childhood
that streamer is batshit crazy, thanks for this amazing content
Tbh this was a great vid, just found you and this video reminded me of how bad scrolling was back in the day lol.
He's right. I once had 3 10% for MAtk land on some Fallen Maple Leaf Earrings. That shit felt so good, I felt like a king for a month.
Maple Journalism is ur best series
or well its my favorite
bro this is a killer video PLEASE make more forever and dont stop k thanks 😅
scrolling, the gateway drug
i mean why would he use 7 scrolls in a row on the dragons if he can stop at 5 to check? like, that would save him a ton of scrolls
That sound will haunt me for the rest of my life...
the mas l easter egg made me scream holy shit who are u how do u know that LMFAOOO
i remember them days
bro I want to play this Maple so badly. The wait for Maple Worlds in the west is killing me
what maple world
Same lol
Dude this video is great!
The Korean guy reminds me of the "Angry German Kid Plays MapleStory"
99% OS Mapler gave up right before they hit 7 success 10% scroll
This is a certified hood classic
Lol very very good video! So much effort was put into this 🎉
The beauty of how to have 1,000 piece of 10% scroll . XD
i remember i put only str in my evan stats and realized i couldn't use any gear and was weak asf but got muscles
my little brother put int in his warrior because he didnt want him to be stupid
maple OG's will watch this and think 'hell yea'
Oh man... nostalgic nightmares of scrolls 😅 great vid !!!
Remember back when i got 3 x 10% and 3 x 60% gloves att landed on my orage work gloves as a dexless sin. Good time!
watching that streamer made me think of dr stone ryusui who bought everyone out before they even established themselves XD fun vid look forward to more!
bro trying to put us in jail
good story writing
Damn, mushroom game documentary?
With screaming Korean dude?
Sign me the hell up.
Watching this made me feel young again.
I love this content, i hope maplelands comes out soon to all of us so we can gamble our lifes away
I mean.. there's always *cough*privateservers*cough*
i tried logging into maple story on my acc i played pre big bang heavy and only a little afterwards to sadly discover it has been deleted for inactivity....sigh had a bunch of 11atk gloves lol
9:50 the stab does more than the swing on spear so thats biased
I need that success scroll rate In dolby 4k
My scrolling strat was to have a bunch of trash scrolls and items that I used in the hopes that those would fail so the probabilty for the scroll I wanted to work would go up. Now I'm not sure if that actually makes any difference but I did manage to create the only 10 attack work gloves in the maple europe beta with very low resources and no free market.
back old time 4 hour 2exp everyday to level 70 to 100
I only ever get to like level 20 something back in maple story's 1st year, but this video is awesome I love learning about how other korean MMOs do upgrade systems lol. They all screw you over in different ways
Maple old school isnt about buying meso and gears. It destroy it
Name one game that people don't RWT. RWT don't destroy games, It's how the devs and the company deal with it that affect the game/playerbase.
Great editing!
Now they have protection scrolls and all sorts of other things to make scrolling easier. I know back in v.62 you just pray. My scrolls were only used if i was falling. That was my "trick" lol
Great video man, I would totally watch a series of you following that unhinged Korean player🙃. That was funny and edited well!
