I remember when I was at school, a kid started playing yugioh that had Chaos Emperor Dragon. However, the way he played it, and none of us really knew this was wrong due to our knowledge of the card, was that it's effect to remove everything from your hand and the field didn't include Chaos Emperor Dragon itself - so he'd draw it, it hit the board, he'd clear both hands and field - THEN hit you with a direct attack from C.E. Dragon. In hindsight, using Solemn Judgement might have been a good idea...
Considering I'm planning on introducing Yu-Gi-Oh to the country I'm staying in, that being Indonesia, I think I'd be the "old sage" kind of guy who stops these things from happening.
Not only you. In our country wayback 2008 the CED is the most powerful card because there's no description before saying that you cannot special summon it in the graveyard. So most of the players have a card Painful Choice which allows the user to get 5 cards on his deck and let the enemy choose which card will remain and the other 4 will be discarded to graveyard. So what players do is activate Painful Choice, get CED and 4 monsters with attribute of Light and Dark. By doing this CED can be summon even if it is on the graveyard. So when they rework the effect of CED they now added "Should be summoned from hand".
RIOTRAVER v4 man I put mine in storage I'll have to get it framed, I got mine on a field trip to Salem and there's a comic book shop that's very well known there and it has Emperor Dragon and Black Luster Soldier, it cost me 35 for both and they are in awesome shape too
@@heidtb6746 Actually it matters a lot. With say Solemn Warning were you have to pay 2000 for it once you hit 2000 or less LP it becomes a dead card. With Solemn Judgement you could have 100 LP but you could still activate the card so it's always useful.
@@bdf1006 I know what you mean and i understand your argument, but... You either draw Solemns in your opening hand or you dont play any this game... And if you get them early enough, LP dont matter (like 2000 for Warning or 1500 for Strike...) In maybe 1% of the duels where solemns were played, they ended up being dead because of LP...
EXCEPT that a uneven amount of LP can lock this card, you cannot pay half of 7975 LP for example. Considering YGO numbers this was rarely the case but could be done.
Chaos Emperor and Yata. The original inescapable lockdown. When your opponent did that you surrendered. There was next to nothing you could do if it was pulled off successfully. God bless, I still remember when that was actually playable. EDIT: Oh god, spellbook of judgment.

As a herald player, I actually had a pretty good matchup against spellbooks. As long as I could get my ritual summon off early, I could severely hinder my opponent's ability to utilize their hand advantage or even slow it's generation and it only got better after they introduced Dragon Princess Saphira which allowed my to pump out my own hand advantage and do some crazy things.
Dude I just wanna say you have a really calming voice and a really good speaking tone, you really found something you’re good at, and I think you could easily get hired for being a commentator or narrator if that’s something you’re interested in, anyways much love and ty for making these videos ✌🏼
Back when I still played YGO (a very long time ago, near the beginning of the game), CED was one of the most dominant forces around. Chaos decks were pretty much everywhere. Rarely, you would see specific decks that tried to counter them. The Yata-CED lockout was the most popular way to win the game for a while. It was actually pretty toxic, because it was so strong that everyone played it and it homogenized the game. So you'd think that they'd welcome the ban-list, because it opened up the possibilities for a wider variety of decks again, but the exact opposite was true. Everyone pissed and moaned about it, because they just lost their favourite/only good deck. It was nice seeing it on this list to bring back memories from those days, lol. I played the game for a few years after that, but that's the only time in the game where I considered the meta to be boring and stifling. Ofcourse, I have no idea what it's like these days. The game now is a different beast from when I used to play.
I used four of the cards here, mostly the old ones especially CED in Yugioh online. It was really OP back then if you allow all cards, but it wasn't auto win when spellbooks arrived even when you don't use ban lists.
While i generally agree with what youre saying... i dont think disallow would be very competitive at 0 mana pay 10 life, unless youre playing Vintage or potentially Legacy 🤣🤣🤣

yeah but PePe could brick , dragon rulers it was not possible to brick and even shit on decks that were supposed to counter it perfectly like "evilswarm" and even after the babies got banned plant rulers was arguably stronger since it had way more options @@sadrobot5501
I almost beat a towers player in ygo pro once when towers were a thing once with my SOLAR FLARE DRAGONS. But he finished me with cowboy. It was a short period of time when I got back into yugioh, saw how crazy it was, and eventually quit.
@@undeadinside3571 my dude knows what he's talking about. I mean, several spirits have devastating effects and they can only be normal summoned. My personal fave is Hinokagutsuchi
Great maju garzet The effect of maju is to gain the atk of the monster used to tribute summon it by 2x It's a beat stick from hell if you use a low restriction special summon deck containing for example tricky and one time passcode Could also fusion summon a high atk monster and turn around and tribute it If you're still not convinced then this example should help: tricky (2000 atk) is special summoned then tributed for the summon of great maju garzet, maju's atk becomes 4000
Is there a way to possibly do best cards from the different seasons of Yu-Gi-Oh like best cards from duel monsters best from GX best from 5D's and so on?
I haven't played in a long long time but I'm really surprised to not see "Painful Choice" make it in here. Seeing how much it did back then and can only imagine what it can pull off now
The reason why Solemn was rarely used back in the day was because half of someone's LP for 1 card wasn't a great trade, as most decks were pretty linear (And contained a lot of redundancy). Not only that, but cards like Magic Cylinder, Ring of Destruction and Ceasefire made it extremely risky to lower your LP.
Exactly. At first, there were very few cards that had powerful enough effects to be such a threat and even fewer situations making them worth half of your lifepoints. It was a simpler time more focused on the highest atk instead of card effects, and paying half of your lifepoints wasn't worth the risk except to stop a magic cylinder that would have prevented your win or a polymerization with 3 blue-eyes out. Then when some more powerful and more dangerous effects came out, it saw more viable use.
This. Somehow it bothered me how he seemed to imply that players back then were simply too stupid to realize its potential. People saw its potential, but the risk of having low Life Points and dying to a topdeck outweighed the denial of a single card in the eyes of many.
I always played 3 copies on every deck. Ppl would tell me how much it sucked but I new better. Those same ppl would be shocked when I beat them with it
All good points, in the modern meta most duels last 2-3 turns and the ones that don’t tend to be deemed closer than duels where the LP values are close. If a duel isn’t over in the first few turns it usually results in both players stalling out until one finally gets card advantage, can run their engine and deal 8,000+ damage fairly easily, so Solemn Judgment is incredibly valuable and the only staple trap card I always play 😂 It’s one of those that’s sometimes easier to time against meta decks cause you know their key plays, rogue decks can sometimes catch you off guard and if that happens you’re probably going to lose anyway. Mostly monster effects dominate the game now which has made me use Book of Eclipse more in order to shut down early monster effect combos.
Spellbook player here, can confirm during spellbook's peak i would pull off plus 7s in the majority of duels, that deck was crazy consistent. I remember many times where i just wouldn't take the full search of Spellbook of Judgement due to hand size limit, generally i'd empty my hand by the end phase and set down unused spellbooks then go plus 6 in hand and special summon the level 7 or the level 9(which was mostly never run). That deck had many fun combos and could go into rank 7s like big eye and dracossack which were crazy strong(and expensive) at the time.
@@Safersephiroth777 actually you'd go for 10 to 15 monsters and the rest were yea spellbooks, and other generic useful spells because judgement effect counts from any spell cards, not specificly spellbooks therefore spell draw cards like upstart goblin would help you get the total number of spells used that turn crazy high and allow you to do those insane searches and special summon a strong spellcaster ontop and even in bad hands where your spellcount was something like a 3 you could special summon a level 3 spellcaster Prophesy(that was the archetype for the monsters of the spellbook archetype with the exception of the level 2 that had spellbook in its named and was able to be searched with other spellbook spell cards) whose effect is to banish itself and give you 2 searches 1 for a level 5 or higher light/dark spellcaster and another for any spellbook spell card. And its effect could be activated during the same end phase judgement resolved therefore giving you a plus 4 for a spellcount of 3.
Ah, Yata-Garasu, one of the few times I used a Tier 0 strategy in my local tournament before it got banned. I just remembered something on the topic of Chaos Emperor Dragon, what about his counterpart, Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning? Blue Eyes level strength that could attack twice per turn if he got a kill, or he could banish 1 monster your opponent controls.
TYRANT NEPTUNE!!! I was so happy to see my dear baby on this list!! That was the ultimate boss monster of my main childhood deck. I don't remember exactly the names of the cards I used with it, something something drillbit hedgehog. I had a pretty good setup for it, but nowhere near as broken as the setup described here. I had no idea other people found such good use for it! Good times.
I'm from the time when Yugioh starts as a tcg and I'm here to state the follow: We understand the effect of the card (solemn Judgment), it was just that at that times, there wasn't any strong reason to play it often, back then you just have to fear Raigeki, Dark Hole, Delinquent Duo, monster reborn, mirror force and Harpies Feather's Duster and solemn judgment feels like a real situational card because it was just for that cards that you can already easily negate with seven tools or even magic jammer. So please don't call us "slow learners" hahahaha
I remember winning a dozen tournaments in between the releases of Metal Raiders and Pharaoh's Servant where I was running 3x Solemn Judgment...I had traded a Magic Jammer, a Horn of Heaven, and a Sanga of the Thunder for them. I basically intrinsically knew that the only life point that matters is the last one from the moment I started playing...a philosophy that served me well in Magic also. I also ran two Jirai Gumo in that same deck, and won four finals duels at less than 50 life points in a three week span. I was single-handedly responsible for one of my local card shops doubling their prices on single copies of Solemn, as there were runs on their stock by opponents I beat...it's just such a wall card, at least back when most of the good monster effects were flip effects. It's still quite good, but not as good as it was in 2002/2003.
Tyrant Neptune's effect includes copying the effects of a monster in the graveyard. So by dumping Independent Nightingale into the GY, you can copy its effect of ATK increase and unaffected by card effects. Basically a much beefier and easier to summon version of Ultimate Falcon.
Wow, no supreme king starving venom, I’m seriously surprised a card that gets over 4K attack, makes it so ALL of your monsters do piercing, and can shuffle field and grave back to the deck with a stupid easy combo in odd-eyes xd
@@maple1234567890321 because Nightingale itself isn't broken. The monsters in question's effects became broken by existing stuff like Nightingale. Keeping Neptune and Supreme Venom around conditions card creation because then you need to remember to not let Neptune/Supreme Venom use it. It's basically something like Very Fun Dragon. It was annoying and hard to use because L9s weren't easy to bring out and not worth it because lol tribute. Then Virtual World monsters easily turned or brought L9s out, making it stupidly easy to summon.
What kind of drugs were they using when they created the spellbook archetype? Nobody likes to play against that and it gained the nickname „slowbooks“.
SSGSS Goku seem legit to me, dunno why they not printing it, it should work fine in my deck. I mean 500 lp to special summon himself are still 500 lp. Not that strange or sort of
This video is very Helpful I have the Original Chaos Emperor Dragon. But still to this day it never been played I just got it because it seems too fit well with all the different Black Luster Soldiers I have from the the original to Black Luster Soldier Sacred Soldier and Super Soldier these cards never been used
I always thought solemn judgement was good because of how flexible it was. It came in handy in my now ancient Ra deck that had lots of ways of regaining life points.
Dude! I remember I won a regionals using Last Turn, Wall of Revealing Light and freaking Wall of Illusion in order to cheese my opponents. It was freaking awesome! And back before "Cost" was a thing, any life points paid counted as Damage so I would combine Wall of Revealing Light with Barrel Behind the Door in order to kill people in a single turn. Mostly used this combo on friends who would pull really dickish moves like stacking their decks to spam Blue Eyes Ultra in their first turns.
I had stopped playing YGO a while ago and Spellbook/Prophecy deck was my all time favorite when it was introduced. I had no idea it had gotten more support years after the initial set released and hes absolutely right in that almost no one else played it. I remember playing on this online browser YGO setup and I never faced another Prophecy/Spellbook player and I personally thought that they were not only fun, but easily OP in the right hands. This kinda support years later, I can definitely see how itd end up broken.
I run one solemn warning and it really stumps my opponents and I find the trap cards should be played in decks more often than people say people say they’re slow that’s actually not true but it depends on who you ask
Regarding number 10, the fact that trap cards have increasingly become marginalized in Yugioh is why I strongly believe the game is no longer operating as originally intended. The game was never meant to play as quickly as it is now. The cards have gotten to be too broken, so broken that what was originally a fundamental part of the game (trap cards) aren’t that useful anymore.
You are definitely right. Also to add Monsters and half of the new spells does what traps does but better. There's monsters that can negate effects, quick play spells can enable crazier combos and disrupts more than traps. The only trap cards that are seeing play are the newer cards that can activate from the hand instead of set pass as it was intended or Solemn Counter Traps. The game has gotten way too fast that duels can end from turn 1-3 85% of the time and 4-5 15% of the time don't get beyond unless it's stun, burn, or final countdown decks. I can understand if the duel ends from turns 4-10 but 1-3 is ridiculous too fast and degenerate boards to the point where the opponent can play Yugioh is downright stupid and turns new comers and returning players off from Yugioh.
Well this is false, I don't really get where does the "nobody play traps now" idea come from, but it's absolutely not true. Everyone is playing trap cards like the Solemns, Torrential Tribute, Crackdown, Summon Limit, There Can Be Only One, Gozen Match, Rivalry of the Warlords, Survival's End, Appointer of the Red Lotus, Dogmatika Punishment, Salamangreat Rage, Virtual World Gate - Chuche, Shaddol's Schism, Imperial Order, Skill Drain, Anti-Spell Fragrance, Artifact Sanctum *to name a few* . We even had/used to have Tier 1 Decks who are based on trap cards ( Eldlich, Zoodiac, Subterror, Altergeist... )
@@underpressure1954 just floodgates and solemn strike and impermanence becuz is a handtrap , so the point still remains, everything became so broken , fast and nonsense that just floodgates work , solemn strike cuz is just insane and imperma as handtrap as i said
@@tryfergoodra552 Your wrong there are many other traps being played lol you don't know what you're talking about there's : - ice dragon's prison - exchange of the spirit - all the eldlich traps - torrential tribute - all shaddols trap - dinosmischus - all altergeist traps -mathmech induction - red lotus - etc ( dimensional barrier, metanoise, sulliek, evenly matched... )
I remember when Invasion of Chaos first came out and thinking wow this set is OP, due to the chaos monsters being able to banish cards. CED-EOTD was unstoppable.

I remember the overwhelming number of DaD decks, even though not exactly the meta, I went for a Chaos-DaD deck, didn't perform all that bad to be honest, even after the limitation, because DaD was both a bossmonster AND a resource
I have defeated decks with strong cards such as the Apoquiphort Towers in the video with Amazoness Swords Woman. such a great card. the stronger the monster gets the more damage she does and it doesnt matter how immune the monster is, the damage effect still applies.
No, it really wouldn't be fine. You could use him in a combo deck that can burn to set up an FTK. Burn, have a ton of cards on the field, effect, and massive burn and they have no hand for if they survive.
@@philipgutierrez2999 you don't understand, when I said that you should only be unable of activating effects AFTER you had used CED effect, the errata says you can ONLY activate CED effect that turn.
I still have my 1 edition last turn. 1 of my favorite cards period. Won it at a flea market dude told me to pick a card (both were face down of course) and picked last turn.
I remember doing a sealed draft tournament at my locals when the Tachyon booster came out. One of my friends pulled Spellbook of Judgement and immediately sold it for, like, £100
One thing I want to correct: the game still has Ignition effects. The concept you are referring to is Turn Player Priority to activate monster Ignition Effects before opponent could respond w/ something (that doesn't negate a summon). 😀
I'm actually a little confused on what makes tyrant unaffected by everything in your description for him. I don't see anywhere on nightingale or tyrant's effects that make them unaffected by everything
I used to run Solemn Judgement in my deck back in the day. I don’t recognize any of the rest of these but then again I haven’t played this game in over 15 years
I haven't played in 10 years, (and before that it was a solid ~4 years), but when I came back was when the Lightsworn era was in full force. I had no clue what was going on, now I watch these videos and think: I still have no clue what's going on.
Hei Blackreaper that card by itself doesn’t do anything except make you go -5 in card economy, it doesn’t do anything else by itself, did you not hear what he said? He said “powerful cards on their own”, not “best combo cards”, if he had said that then I would agree with you, but in this caste you’re dead wrong, Painful Choice is a “combo” card, not a card that nukes the field, is unaffected by everything, has ridiculous attack and is easy to summon, see where I’m going with this? Almost every card in his list falls under that category
@@knightmarecx2069 Painful Choice is a 1 for 1 in terms of card advantage. You lose P.C. to add a card to your hand, the cards you send to the GY don't count towards advantage
@@undeadinside3571 Because if you build a deck specifically around him you can easily pull him off turn 1 a vast majority (over 50%) of the time with stupidly powerful effects.
I feel like Konami should've picked an avenue when it came to breaking up the Yata Lock. Either nerf all the involved cards or release a shit-ton of floating effects that gives you a way out of having your draw phase skipped. It looks like they've chose both as Sangan and Chaos Emperor Dragon are nerfed, but you got several archetypes or cards in general with floating effects, hand traps and etc. that can assure you won't have an empty board or hand after Yata-Garasu or Chaos Emperor Dragon's effect resolves.

@@naidhruvananthiyer5723 you can cheat material amounts eith certain rank up magics, monster effects that add themselves as materials after the summon, Xyz over an Xyz monster(like how zoodiacs work) etc.
Always fun looking back at these old videos. Rhongo will 100% never come off the banlist now with the introduction of Numbers Evail.
As a herald player, I actually had a pretty good matchup against spellbooks. As long as I could get my ritual summon off early, I could severely hinder my opponent's ability to utilize their hand advantage or even slow it's generation and it only got better after they introduced Dragon Princess Saphira which allowed my to pump out my own hand advantage and do some crazy things.
Solemn Judgment number 10? Strap in, folks.

Top 10 “once per duel” cards please
Dude I just wanna say you have a really calming voice and a really good speaking tone, you really found something you’re good at, and I think you could easily get hired for being a commentator or narrator if that’s something you’re interested in, anyways much love and ty for making these videos ✌🏼
Duck his Sick why don't ya !!
I love running Dark Armed Dragon in my Blackwing deck. One of my favorite decks.
Your videos are pure gold. From the animations to the lines you say, I can tell a lot of a hard work has been put into it. Keep it up!
Top 10 strongest “able to be put in any deck” cards in yugioh. Might be a fun list for players at all skill levels or those getting into the game.
You might have to rename it as "Top 10 Best Splashable Cards", but it's still a great idea.
off the too of my head solemns twin twister ash blossom and other hand traps

LMAO "able to be put in any deck". We call those staples, or splashable cards.
Sparks easily no.1
Back when I still played YGO (a very long time ago, near the beginning of the game), CED was one of the most dominant forces around. Chaos decks were pretty much everywhere. Rarely, you would see specific decks that tried to counter them. The Yata-CED lockout was the most popular way to win the game for a while. It was actually pretty toxic, because it was so strong that everyone played it and it homogenized the game. So you'd think that they'd welcome the ban-list, because it opened up the possibilities for a wider variety of decks again, but the exact opposite was true. Everyone pissed and moaned about it, because they just lost their favourite/only good deck.
It was nice seeing it on this list to bring back memories from those days, lol. I played the game for a few years after that, but that's the only time in the game where I considered the meta to be boring and stifling. Ofcourse, I have no idea what it's like these days. The game now is a different beast from when I used to play.
I used four of the cards here, mostly the old ones especially CED in Yugioh online. It was really OP back then if you allow all cards, but it wasn't auto win when spellbooks arrived even when you don't use ban lists.
Solemn Judgment: every black mana MTG player would know the golden rule... It doesn't matter how little LP you have as long as it's not zero 😈
Towers is also a fully black mtg card by getting past indestructible with you have to sacrifice effects
And blue players know the value of saying no for basically free, Solemn is basically a black Force of Will.

Top 10 Monsters that can only be normal summoned
yata garasu number one
And amano iwato is at least top 3
@@undeadinside3571 my dude knows what he's talking about. I mean, several spirits have devastating effects and they can only be normal summoned. My personal fave is Hinokagutsuchi
Great maju garzet
The effect of maju is to gain the atk of the monster used to tribute summon it by 2x
It's a beat stick from hell if you use a low restriction special summon deck containing for example tricky and one time passcode
Could also fusion summon a high atk monster and turn around and tribute it
If you're still not convinced then this example should help: tricky (2000 atk) is special summoned then tributed for the summon of great maju garzet, maju's atk becomes 4000

Is there a way to possibly do best cards from the different seasons of Yu-Gi-Oh like best cards from duel monsters best from GX best from 5D's and so on?
This needs Part 2 more than ever nowadays !
I haven't played in a long long time but I'm really surprised to not see "Painful Choice" make it in here. Seeing how much it did back then and can only imagine what it can pull off now
The reason why Solemn was rarely used back in the day was because half of someone's LP for 1 card wasn't a great trade, as most decks were pretty linear (And contained a lot of redundancy). Not only that, but cards like Magic Cylinder, Ring of Destruction and Ceasefire made it extremely risky to lower your LP.
Exactly. At first, there were very few cards that had powerful enough effects to be such a threat and even fewer situations making them worth half of your lifepoints. It was a simpler time more focused on the highest atk instead of card effects, and paying half of your lifepoints wasn't worth the risk except to stop a magic cylinder that would have prevented your win or a polymerization with 3 blue-eyes out. Then when some more powerful and more dangerous effects came out, it saw more viable use.
This. Somehow it bothered me how he seemed to imply that players back then were simply too stupid to realize its potential. People saw its potential, but the risk of having low Life Points and dying to a topdeck outweighed the denial of a single card in the eyes of many.
I always played 3 copies on every deck. Ppl would tell me how much it sucked but I new better. Those same ppl would be shocked when I beat them with it
All good points, in the modern meta most duels last 2-3 turns and the ones that don’t tend to be deemed closer than duels where the LP values are close. If a duel isn’t over in the first few turns it usually results in both players stalling out until one finally gets card advantage, can run their engine and deal 8,000+ damage fairly easily, so Solemn Judgment is incredibly valuable and the only staple trap card I always play 😂 It’s one of those that’s sometimes easier to time against meta decks cause you know their key plays, rogue decks can sometimes catch you off guard and if that happens you’re probably going to lose anyway. Mostly monster effects dominate the game now which has made me use Book of Eclipse more in order to shut down early monster effect combos.
Spellbook player here, can confirm during spellbook's peak i would pull off plus 7s in the majority of duels, that deck was crazy consistent. I remember many times where i just wouldn't take the full search of Spellbook of Judgement due to hand size limit, generally i'd empty my hand by the end phase and set down unused spellbooks then go plus 6 in hand and special summon the level 7 or the level 9(which was mostly never run). That deck had many fun combos and could go into rank 7s like big eye and dracossack which were crazy strong(and expensive) at the time.
So it was that good right? You had like 5 monsters in the deck and all other were spellbook cards right?
@@Safersephiroth777 actually you'd go for 10 to 15 monsters and the rest were yea spellbooks, and other generic useful spells because judgement effect counts from any spell cards, not specificly spellbooks therefore spell draw cards like upstart goblin would help you get the total number of spells used that turn crazy high and allow you to do those insane searches and special summon a strong spellcaster ontop and even in bad hands where your spellcount was something like a 3 you could special summon a level 3 spellcaster Prophesy(that was the archetype for the monsters of the spellbook archetype with the exception of the level 2 that had spellbook in its named and was able to be searched with other spellbook spell cards) whose effect is to banish itself and give you 2 searches 1 for a level 5 or higher light/dark spellcaster and another for any spellbook spell card. And its effect could be activated during the same end phase judgement resolved therefore giving you a plus 4 for a spellcount of 3.
@@xiarhos5 So it counted for ALL spell cards? Damn! I see why it is considered one of the most broken cards ever. Okay thanks.

Super Rejuvenation objectivity is/was a much better card. Just saying
Ah, Yata-Garasu, one of the few times I used a Tier 0 strategy in my local tournament before it got banned.
I just remembered something on the topic of Chaos Emperor Dragon, what about his counterpart, Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning? Blue Eyes level strength that could attack twice per turn if he got a kill, or he could banish 1 monster your opponent controls.
TYRANT NEPTUNE!!! I was so happy to see my dear baby on this list!! That was the ultimate boss monster of my main childhood deck. I don't remember exactly the names of the cards I used with it, something something drillbit hedgehog. I had a pretty good setup for it, but nowhere near as broken as the setup described here. I had no idea other people found such good use for it! Good times.
I'm from the time when Yugioh starts as a tcg and I'm here to state the follow: We understand the effect of the card (solemn Judgment), it was just that at that times, there wasn't any strong reason to play it often, back then you just have to fear Raigeki, Dark Hole, Delinquent Duo, monster reborn, mirror force and Harpies Feather's Duster and solemn judgment feels like a real situational card because it was just for that cards that you can already easily negate with seven tools or even magic jammer. So please don't call us "slow learners" hahahaha
true. Ain't nobody using Judgement to negate the normal summon of Opticlops
Yeah I barely played any yugioh but I figured something like this was ths case haha

I remember winning a dozen tournaments in between the releases of Metal Raiders and Pharaoh's Servant where I was running 3x Solemn Judgment...I had traded a Magic Jammer, a Horn of Heaven, and a Sanga of the Thunder for them. I basically intrinsically knew that the only life point that matters is the last one from the moment I started playing...a philosophy that served me well in Magic also. I also ran two Jirai Gumo in that same deck, and won four finals duels at less than 50 life points in a three week span. I was single-handedly responsible for one of my local card shops doubling their prices on single copies of Solemn, as there were runs on their stock by opponents I beat...it's just such a wall card, at least back when most of the good monster effects were flip effects. It's still quite good, but not as good as it was in 2002/2003.
I love how mech king's greatest weakness is kaiju cards. Almost like the only way to best giant robots, is giant monsters
Basically Pacific Rim.

Where does Tyrant Neptune gain the effect of being unaffected by everything?
That's what I want to know too
It's one of Independent Nightningale's effects. DuelLogs seems to have used a proxy that missed that part. Look up its effect.
Tyrant Neptune's effect includes copying the effects of a monster in the graveyard. So by dumping Independent Nightingale into the GY, you can copy its effect of ATK increase and unaffected by card effects. Basically a much beefier and easier to summon version of Ultimate Falcon.
Fire Hunterz you need to tribute it
Wow, no supreme king starving venom, I’m seriously surprised a card that gets over 4K attack, makes it so ALL of your monsters do piercing, and can shuffle field and grave back to the deck with a stupid easy combo in odd-eyes xd
Basically the same as tyrant neptune
@@Deathmare235 yet nightingale is not banned
@@maple1234567890321 because Nightingale itself isn't broken. The monsters in question's effects became broken by existing stuff like Nightingale. Keeping Neptune and Supreme Venom around conditions card creation because then you need to remember to not let Neptune/Supreme Venom use it.
It's basically something like Very Fun Dragon. It was annoying and hard to use because L9s weren't easy to bring out and not worth it because lol tribute. Then Virtual World monsters easily turned or brought L9s out, making it stupidly easy to summon.
@@shis1988 fair enough, I can see your point!

Nice list great video
I like how you don't even try to pronounce Rhongomyniad lmao. Everytime you just cut it off at "Heroic Champion" was funny to me lol.
I always thought solemn judgement was good because of how flexible it was. It came in handy in my now ancient Ra deck that had lots of ways of regaining life points.
I used to run Number 86 in satellarknights back in the day, really caught people off guard, pretty much instantly won every time I got him out.
Dude! I remember I won a regionals using Last Turn, Wall of Revealing Light and freaking Wall of Illusion in order to cheese my opponents. It was freaking awesome! And back before "Cost" was a thing, any life points paid counted as Damage so I would combine Wall of Revealing Light with Barrel Behind the Door in order to kill people in a single turn. Mostly used this combo on friends who would pull really dickish moves like stacking their decks to spam Blue Eyes Ultra in their first turns.
Omg, I laughed so hard when I heard of the tyrant Neptune effect, what a beast!! 😂😂😂

One monster I have always loved and I think was quite powerful was Muka Muka. Not enough to make this list but was great to have on your first turn.
I had stopped playing YGO a while ago and Spellbook/Prophecy deck was my all time favorite when it was introduced. I had no idea it had gotten more support years after the initial set released and hes absolutely right in that almost no one else played it. I remember playing on this online browser YGO setup and I never faced another Prophecy/Spellbook player and I personally thought that they were not only fun, but easily OP in the right hands. This kinda support years later, I can definitely see how itd end up broken.
I run one solemn warning and it really stumps my opponents and I find the trap cards should be played in decks more often than people say people say they’re slow that’s actually not true but it depends on who you ask
Regarding number 10, the fact that trap cards have increasingly become marginalized in Yugioh is why I strongly believe the game is no longer operating as originally intended. The game was never meant to play as quickly as it is now. The cards have gotten to be too broken, so broken that what was originally a fundamental part of the game (trap cards) aren’t that useful anymore.
You are definitely right. Also to add Monsters and half of the new spells does what traps does but better. There's monsters that can negate effects, quick play spells can enable crazier combos and disrupts more than traps. The only trap cards that are seeing play are the newer cards that can activate from the hand instead of set pass as it was intended or Solemn Counter Traps. The game has gotten way too fast that duels can end from turn 1-3 85% of the time and 4-5 15% of the time don't get beyond unless it's stun, burn, or final countdown decks. I can understand if the duel ends from turns 4-10 but 1-3 is ridiculous too fast and degenerate boards to the point where the opponent can play Yugioh is downright stupid and turns new comers and returning players off from Yugioh.
Well this is false, I don't really get where does the "nobody play traps now" idea come from, but it's absolutely not true. Everyone is playing trap cards like the Solemns, Torrential Tribute, Crackdown, Summon Limit, There Can Be Only One, Gozen Match, Rivalry of the Warlords, Survival's End, Appointer of the Red Lotus, Dogmatika Punishment, Salamangreat Rage, Virtual World Gate - Chuche, Shaddol's Schism, Imperial Order, Skill Drain, Anti-Spell Fragrance, Artifact Sanctum *to name a few* . We even had/used to have Tier 1 Decks who are based on trap cards ( Eldlich, Zoodiac, Subterror, Altergeist... )

I have defeated decks with strong cards such as the Apoquiphort Towers in the video with Amazoness Swords Woman. such a great card. the stronger the monster gets the more damage she does and it doesnt matter how immune the monster is, the damage effect still applies.
If Chaos Emperor Dragon effect said that you cannot activate effects AFTER you summoned then it would be fine, but no
No, it really wouldn't be fine. You could use him in a combo deck that can burn to set up an FTK. Burn, have a ton of cards on the field, effect, and massive burn and they have no hand for if they survive.

Almost every card in his list falls under that category

I feel like Konami should've picked an avenue when it came to breaking up the Yata Lock. Either nerf all the involved cards or release a shit-ton of floating effects that gives you a way out of having your draw phase skipped. It looks like they've chose both as Sangan and Chaos Emperor Dragon are nerfed, but you got several archetypes or cards in general with floating effects, hand traps and etc. that can assure you won't have an empty board or hand after Yata-Garasu or Chaos Emperor Dragon's effect resolves.
