This is super interesting, I like to see people playing the game for the first time and listen to their takes. As a person who have played the game for a long time you assume everything is second nature, so seeing people learning and getting better little by little is so fun
exact same feeling here.
Same
Unlike most TCGs, Yugioh cards are themed via archetypes. The game itself is not themed. The cards themselves are. And archetypes are not mutually exclusive so you can mix and match archetypes.
Also it's funny seeing MTG players misestimate a card's worth out of ignorance.
Its simple, just believe in the heart of the cards and have crazier hair than who ever you duel. Also try to stay out of the shadow realm. Yugioh was asked what theme it wanted and answered Yes.
Lmao
Truth
Bo Burnham *"Welcome to the internet plays*
As someone that still has a Yugioh Card Collection that never saw much use I decided to download this on my XBox and give it a try. Don't know if we'll ever meet online but if we do- "It's time to duel!" Good luck Wheels.
Even as someone who has played since 2013 I still can’t understand how this is a game for children 6 years+ 😂 There are so many hidden rules and things that don’t work as it seems they should. Trying to learn the game now is like trying to learn a new language and even veteran players struggle to read their cards correctly.
Good luck Wheels!
I think it suffers from much the same complexity-creep that most (all?) long-running TCGs get - the core mechanics aren't terribly complicated, but there are so many extra mechanics and so much additional jargon, because you can't go a year without releasing a new mechanic...
I laugh at the idea of two 6yr olds in the playground dueling when one of them says "Sorry Billy, you missed the timing" 😂
I chain Halqifibrax's effect to your normal summon and synchro summon Formula Synchron from the extra deck
Are you gonna draw a card?
Nope, it missed the timing
What do you mean it missed timing, why?
Oh, it's because it simply has the word "When" instead of "If"
Kids can learn. The key is not learning from these tutorials but by being taught by a person. Learning the basics first and learn other mechanics as you encounter them. The game was simpler when I was younger, but I started playing card games at age 9. Anybody can learn. Just gotta be patient, lose a lot and keep playing.
@@LhynkalTheFool formula synchron does not miss the timing if you don't have any chain link or if halq's chain link is 1. In this case you use halq eff on his summon which means formula does not miss and will never miss the timing
At 5:15, I started to pity Wheels.
At 6:15, I REALLY started to pity Wheels.
"Two hours into the tutorial"
That is never good to hear
46:10 screaming internally for him not to set the lord of the big D, stall for two turns! that's +4 cards and two of them were Blue Eyes, horn the two of them and, damn, that could have been sick.
yugioh does have sets/archetypes hat share theme or even story arc among its art (recommend to check duel terminal story) but the theme miss-mash & miss-matching within ones deck is actually the charm of yugioh. only in yugioh you can play group of time traveling gentlemmen thief and yet you counter opponent card using japanese ghost before you slam down literal lovecraft horror as you boss. lore wise is disconnected but if you create your own story how this 3 groups cards came together you got your self a weird and cool premise.
XYZ is pronounced "ek-SEEZ" which is stupid and I love it.
tbh ive been into the game for long and everybody has a different way to say it, theres people that say "ekseez", others "exceed" or some just say "xyz" (kseez), or even people saying "ex why zee" or also "ex why zed". in the japanese anime they say "ekusido" iirc
Half of this stuff didnt used to exist back in the day its become so complicated
Yeah, they just keep adding more and more mechanics, it becomes stupidly complicated... Games that do that like Yu-Gi-Oh and Magic the Gathering should just stop at some point, keep what they've done and make a spin-off game which adds the new mechanics to the base game or something.
But what about Pot of greed! What does it do?!?!
I played ygo for many years, and I do love the game, but for beginners it’s definitely pretty damn impenetrable. Especially I think playing digitally like this often just feels… suffocating because it’s just rules and mechanics aka the unfun parts of learning a tcg without the fun part of being around other people and absorbing their excitement for the game. As for the card art, ygo has a ton of different archetypes w their own consistent aesthetics and your beginner’s deck was definitely just a stapled together deck of a wild mix of different cards😂
Some notes, hopefully to answers some qs: 36:40 cyclone just destroys a card, it does not negate its effect. So the card was destroyed but it’s effect still activated. This was probably a miss play by your opponent
48:28 ygo is very picky with timing. By chaining the two traps I believe you missed the timing for one of them.
54:15 yes! You are correct. But it needs to be set face down on the field for it to work during opponent’s turn. Quick spells can be incredibly powerful and they have the highest spell speed among spell cards.
I think you did very well for a complete beginner!! But yeah lol casual tcg games and learning sessions are definitely more fun and enlightening with friends.😂
Ygo isn't THAT hard
Just learn every rule and mechanic taught in the player rulebook and then go out of your way to learn the secret rules and card rulings.
Then, throw all of that out of the window because card effects always take priority over the rules
Have fun y'all
Lol so true!
@Dice Breaker: their is one thing you missunderstood about summoning to the Extra monster zone, only link monster, and pendulum monster that are face-up in the extra deck that are special summoned from the Extra deck will be force into does zone if they are not other link monster that points to a main monster zone, If you used one Extra monster zone your opponent will be able to used the other one, the only time you can used 2 Extra monster zone it is with link monster and if they are extra link all the way to the other Extra monster zone. Because you played your Xyz{spell out Exsssed) monster in your extra monster zone, so when you try to link summoned from the extra deck, since they can only used the Extra monster zone and you could only used one, you would be force to used your Xyz monster as link matterial to clear out that space, and using a link matterial is not considered tributing.
@DiceBreaker: I forgot to answer what theme that yugioh have, they are all base on fantasy creature, they are even yugioh card that can refrence Dragon ball Z. Gradius in yugioh this is base on Konami classic arcade game also call Gradius, also available on NES. The animé girl not sure which animé that the chalice archatype is based off. The red robot is base on the animé of yugioh itself Yugioh 5Ds where the hero, and villan used synchro monster, the White card.
Lord of D'what is going on
tiphoon only destroys the trap but doesnt negate the effect
@Dice Breaker: why chaining 2 defense draw only gets you one draw, chain link 1 defense draw, when it ask to chain the 2nd one, the first one as not resolve yet, so the 2nd one your about to activated still see your takeing battle damage, so you chain the second one, when it resolve chain link 2 defense draw it applied this effect the battle damage you would take become 0, and you draw one card, chain link 1 resolve defense draw, 0 battle damage is not considered takeing battle damage so it resolve without effect, it would have work in the very old rules of the same game, since way back then takeing 0 battle damage was still considered takeing battle damage, back then you could activated defense draw when your defense monster was being attack even thought that would not be a good play.
It's possible a game pieced together from rules made up in a manga is a tad convoluted to play
Man the manga did not follow any rules
Master Duel is actuslly what the normal 5 monster and 5 spell/trap card layout is called now. It became that when speed duels were introduced by YuGiOh Vrains.
I completely disagree about the YuGiOh animes being dumb. Some of them are but they can actually have sone really cool stuff in them such as the entirety of 5ds or YuGiOh Vrains.
Arc v be like: Im I a joke to u.
@@tomvn2812 I have mixed feelings about Arc V.
@@CodaBlairLucarioEmperor yeah the series started like a comedy and ended like a drama. I personally think Yuya is the strongest duelist in his true form. He literally all the protagonist together but evil. Also it's nice to see the mc becoming a vilian.
@@tomvn2812 My biggest problem was the fate of all of the counterparts apart from Yuri. It's not only about them but also their families that made me mad. None of them got a happy ending of any sort except for Yuya and Yuzu but everybody seemed to act like it was one. I'm perfectly fine with what happened to Yuri due to just how f*ed up he was. I mean the fusion one.
@@CodaBlairLucarioEmperor yeah agree.
duel masters is basicly magic the gathering but instead of land cards your monsters can be played upside down to be your mana pool
literrally that and how life points are calculated are the only diffrences
@Dice Break: The spell card fusion substitude, as a text that says always treated as polymarization, that simply mean if you have 2 polymarization already in your deck you can only have one fusion substitude spell card, and so on. Super polymarization does not equal polymarization. The spell card polymariazation itself is better then the spell card fusion substitude because then you can used fusion material in your hand and not just the field, however as tread off you don't have a spell card effect in the graveyard. When you played you thought you fusion summoned a fusion monster, you special summoned a fusion monster using the effect of the dark ex-sealed fusion that tributed matterial, and since you special summoned a fusion monster and not fusion summoned it, you will not be able to monster reborn it since it was not fusion summoned.
@Dicebreaker: you may know this by now, since your opponent was also a beginer and maybe a magic the gathering player also, the opponent did not know that destroy does not negated in yugioh, so this is why, your quick play spell care still resolve despite your opponent destroy it first. Then your question then why it negated continous card, it does not, for example you activated call of the haunted continuous trap card and you target a monster in your graveyard, your opponent chain mst an target call of the haunted, chain link 2 resolve first and destroy call of the haunted chain link 1 resolve with nothing happening since a continous card is required to remain on the field to resolve its effect, this is not negating an effect, you activated call of the haunted target a monster in the graveyard the opponent does not chain mst and deside to wait, you special summoned the targeted monster, and your opponent decided to play mst in response to the special summoned succefully of your monster card and target call of the haunted, chain link 1 resolve destroying call of the haunted, then the continous effect of call of the haunted applied (if call of the haunted leave the field destroy that monster) so the monster summoned by call of the haunted is destroy, so if destroy equal negated in the situation I just mention because the monster is already summoned call of the haunted would be negated and destroy this will cause the monster summoned by call of the haunted to remain on the field.
I actually love Yu-Gi-Oh!, I used to play it with my siblings all the time. Love that y’all gave it a try!
Starting out with the new mechanics in yu-gi-oh is confusing. To be honest, it would be better to start with duel links/speed duels, because it helps new duelists or old duelists of the original mechanics to get back into yu-gi-oh. But believe in the heart of the cards. 😂
More yugioh please! I'd love to see you traverse through the learning curve.
Edit: The theme in yugioh is of different dimensions and planets that have fought in wars over time and space coallescing in our reality due to the power of duelists within "shadow games" or duels. The anime doesn't delve too much into it, but the basics are of there being several dimensions, and being able to create and evolve the creatures of different dimensions to use in duels. The solo mode in master duel talks alot about the individual lore of some of the archetypes.
It's not worth it lmao, people from other card games come from a game where complete virtual decks were built for them already, whereas Yu-Gi-Oh began as a game where you have to build your own deck from scratch by collecting generic booster packs. So when you give one of these players a deck they didn't build themselves they have no clue what to do and can only hide their embarrassment at their lack of game knowledge by dissing on the game.
Should do an actual play in the office with physical cards. Maybe follow it up with another go at Monopoly. ;)
Can you not have the Wild Bill's thing on screen all the time? It hides card information so you can't see what the cards are called and it covers part of the art.
Destroy != negate
Pretty common trap for new players, which means the guy you played for your first duel was probably as new as you are.
Also raigeki seems really strong (and it used to be a staple to the point of being restricted), but these days the number of counter-spell traps, monsters you can summon/activate from the graveyard, etc means it's actually pretty average. Still a staple in some decks but not meta-defining.
I gave up on yu-gi-oh about the time they introduced xyz, watching Wheels come to terms with the nigmare of power creep based design that is modern yugioh is kinda hilarious 😂 🤣
Pedulum flat out BROKE the game though but it was also nessisary do to all the convaluted forms of summonign that had been introduced by then
When a friend came into school with a Pendulum deck and summoned a full field of monsters in the first 2 turns that was me out of Yu Gi Oh. Everything they've done since has been them trying to course correct and failing.
Why? Konami.
@@WardNightstone Why did pendulm break the game there warent even that many good pendulum decks.
Qliphort was the first pendulm meta deck and was Released half a year later then first pendulm cards
Pepe the only tier Zero pendulm deck (the only one witch is a broken deck)
Metalfoes became meta after other Decks got destroyed by the banlist
-DDD witch was only 2 weeks meta before zoodiac were introduced
All other pendulum decks (Deskbot, majespecter, dinomist, ignknight, Zefra, amorphage, abyss actor) didnt see enough success to count
@@humbold1756 I think he means in a casual setting that it felt broken on release. Back when Pendulums came out, I remember being annoyed that even if you destroyed all of their monsters, they could just be summoned back to the field every single turn if you didn't have S/T removal.
You were set up perfectly to flute 2 blue eyes X] this was funny thanks for the video!
@Dice Breaker: You activated silver cry as chain link 2, and your opponent activated mst, targeting your silver cry as chain link 3, so mst resolve first destroying sliver cry, silver cry still resolve because it is not a continous type of card. Continous types of card, are continous spell, equipe spell, field spell, Continous trap, and normal trap card that have the condition written in their text that they become equip card. Normal trap that have the conditon to become equiped, if it got 2 effect written on the card, one would be its normal trap effect, and the other one is equiped effect, so if you wait to used both effect at the same time, and your opponent chain MST to destroy this activated card, only the normal trap effect would work, the equipe effect would not work since the trap card still need to exist to equiped to your monster. A mush better exemple scrap iron scarecrow normal trap, you activated it when your opponent declare an attack it target that monster and negated the attack, and regardless if it succesfully negated the attack or not, that normal trap as the condition to return itself face-down on the field to used it again next turn, so if your opponent chain mst and target your activated scrap iron scarcrow, your opponent monster attack is still negated, but because your scrap iron scarcrow is not on the field at resolution it is not return face-down on the field.
I used to play Forbiden memories back in the ps1, nowadays seems like it's too much
Out the million mistakes that were made by both players, the only one that was unclear by just reading the cards was how MST's destruction works. Everything else happened entirely because the streamer didn't bother reading the cards they had.
Mtg is as guilty as yugioh on the "not having a theme" stuff. You go from knights, to steampunk, to cyberpunk, to greece, to the mafia, to hogwarts (and don't get me started on the crossovers!). If anything, you have to see the cards in every "archetype" (kinda like tribes from mtg) or the ones that are connected, those then share an archetype.
For example, the "anime jrpg girl" is from the archetype and storyline "World Legacy", and in that archetype/storyline things are very JRPG like (specially xenoblade 1), and in every archetype inside that storyline, each one follows a theme (mechanical and visual). Krawlers and mechanical bugs with lots of swarming and flip effects, Orcust are mechanical monsters with an orchestra thematic with lots of graveyard effects, Crusadia is an alliance of various tribes with effects that work better when more "crusadia" monsters are on the field, etc.
I've seen maybe 5 episodes of the anime. I didn't know anything about the card game going in (and I still don't!). But anything that gives us Sarcastic Wheels vids can only be good.
The guy you were playing against was playing control style. A frustrating first game to be up against esp with a deck with no removal effects or spells
I have found the commonality in theme: the designers thought it would be cool. Literally nothing else was considered.
Watching Wheels attempt to explain Yugioh is the laugh I needed today :)
same here
Is there a card that let's you place a card on the enemy filed??
he's a bit slow compared to most that start yugioh for the first time but neat to see that kind of persons view.
There are multiple different themes in yu gi oh.
It really just depends.
For example, my deck is made out of multiple different types of dragons with most of them being cybernetic in some way.
There like 80 different story lines in Yu-Gi-Oh
Manly the albaz story line the world leagcy story line and the duel terminal story line
They say the root of all comedy is suffering, and I can see what they mean while I'm laughing watching you try and explain the rules. (Last time I played ritual monsters were still relatively new, so I'm in the same boat of confusion, what on earth is Link summoning? 😂)
Link Summoning is actually really easy. Say I have two cards on the field, let's say, Aromage Jasmine and Aromage Laurel and I want to play Aromaseraphy Jasmine, the Aromage Link Monster. I simply send 2 of my plant monsters on the field to the graveyard as it says so on the card to Summon her. So Jasmine and Laurel are sent to the field and I can place her face up in Attack Position (Link Monsters are incapable of Defense Position or Facedown Position) in either the Main Monster Zone or if one is empty, an Extra Monster Zone. Preferably Extra because due to the Link Arrows pointing toward my cards with potential effects like being immune to battle destruction if my LP are higher or sacrifice to Special Summon any Plant monster from my Deck as I desire.
But there's more. If I wanted to Summon a Link 3 monster and since Seraphy Jasmine is a Link 2 monster, she can be treated as 2 Link Materials and would only need one other monster on the field to summon the Link 3.
I started playing in April and I have no clue how on earth people learn all the rules to this game when playing it normally. Even now I still regularly rely on Master Duel telling me when cards can be activated, and there's still plenty of times where I think something will work, only for the game to not let me activate something because I made a mistake in my combo or mistimed something.
It's a cool and fun game but a bit of a nightmare to learn.
Master Duel is easy and simple. You see yellow light, you click the button.
i just played this and well playing ranked is insane man. i just lost at turn 2 i didnt even get to attack he already combo'd to hit 9300 one his his turn.
Actually yugioh is a more serious anime, with lots of dark themes including genocide. The dubs make it silly.
At least you didn’t end up facing a actual yugioh player with a near complete deck cuz you would of lost after your first turn.
... the attempt to negate with Mystical was... [Chef's kiss]
Just wait till Floowandereeze are released and you can have multiple normal summons at the cost of no have any special summons the for the turn
Best video ever, i hope you continue make content master duel
Poor wheels, having to learn all the mechanics in one go is always ruff. Aldo it was extremely funny seeing him struggle 🤣
The only thing everyone who played this game for years know, is that we all are incapable of reading.
Fusion summon a fusion monster from your fusion-centric deck using 2 of your fusion monsters as fusion materials and ensuring nuclear fusion is powered with fusion-grade helium 3...
My bro the event XYZ more better called Suicide Squad Event, a loot ppl auto losing idk why xDDDD
I mean the anime if we can call it that is stupid for sure but the game it self is complicated and more so than before. I use to play the game and there are some broken stuff you can do in one turn usually
I've tried returning to the game I really have after having played it in my teens as I'm now in my twenties and I just cannot stand it. As far as I'm aware of the game is completely unbalanced as there are different ways to be killed in multiple different ways that just come off as ridiculous. I'm used to the older style where there is no possible way to be killed both in your hand deck or life points and field by one person or in one turn. I'm used to the turn one exodia decks I've played against those when I was younger they sucked but you had to give props where props were due to them having good luck and a good deck setup. Nowadays I found you can be slaughtered within one turn by somebody that can summon half a million things and take 10 minutes to figure out their turn while having what you could consider a really good deck back then only to just get straight up destroyed because you thought that. And that's not even counting the fact that multiple of them I've seen have plenty of ways to screw you over in negating abilities and their own self protection or just straight up revival. I was feeling the need for a card game after elder scrolls Legends was forcefully screwed over by Bethesda and you know them ceasing all future development.
“I understand what’s going on” I’m glad someone here does cause it’s sure as shit not me.
I'm just here for Wheels making ContentTM in a robe
Wheels is in card purgatory
Dumber than pokemon? Pokemon the Gobots of the digimon universes?
Just for future knowlege xyz summining is pronounced x-ease
This video was quite hilarious, thanks for the content.
I think Yu-Gi-Oh! vs Pokemon vs Magic as card games is interesting because Magic has always been the card game first, Pokemon had a video game first before cards became a thing and the anime, but Yu-Gi-Oh! was the manga first. So I feel like you can tell with how ridiculous it gets with game mechanics nowadays, that the original priority was story and how the cards aid that. It doesn't translate super well into a physical, real world card game, especially against card games that were games first.
It's really interesting to think about. ...but man, xyz/link/whatever stuff is just so much. I still don't get them.
Evidently it does translate well, or the game would not have taken off like it has and lasted this long when so many other TCGs have died out (35 billion cards sold and $10 billion in profits as of 2021). People like to pick on it because of its seemingly nonsensical, unintuitive mechanics and sometimes childish art styles and themes, but it is clearly doing *something* right that other TCGs aren't. It's not like Yu-Gi-Oh! had the popularity of a huge preexisting property to ride on, like the Pokémon TCG. Yes, the original animated series and manga enjoyed some success, but not on the level of a something like Pokémon, which has always printed money because of its mass appeal to younger audiences. Yu-Gi-Oh! has grown and continues to grow simply by being a good game. If it weren't, it would have faded and failed by the mid 2000s. The reasons why it hasn't are worth studying.
This may be a little bit late and you may already known it by this point.
Yugioh theme is that there is this galazy called Duel Terminal and the Monsters all exist in this galaxy, some in the same planets/worlds with others and some by their own.
Take into consideration that this theme was introduced way after the game was created, so is more some kind of excuse to explaind the great range of things you see in the game. From simple fantasy of dragons and mithology to advance tecnological worlds and virtual realitys, and everything between.
Nothing you said is true. Unlike mtg and others that have big storylines that connect everything together in a single multiverse and all that, yugioh has more disperse stuff, with 3 big storylines, but with loads of smaller ones. The big ones are Duel Terminal, World Legacy and Abyss Storiline, each one in their own separate universe (there's a theory that DT and WL happen in the same world, but it's just a theory).
But most cards aren't connected or in the same world/universe.
Current to Yu-Gi-Oh wallof of text old Yu-Gi-Oh have my black labrytnth walk with 3k defense
This was just painful
The more I learn about yugioh the dumber it is.
Granted I don't think its any dumber than pokemon.
at least to me yugioh was always way more fun then pokemon
Your doing excellent, keep it up
Now play Yugioh Forbidden Memories on the ps1, and get confused all over again because it's absolutely nothing like the TCG 😂
About five minutes in is when he's explaining a bunch of stuff that to me, is when Yugioh lost it's appeal.
Once they started to get immensely verbose and complex with the cards it became quite a hassle to grasp.
say master jewel one more time...
pls play more of yugioh
Its a game i wanna learn to play but to much reading
31:55 wait how is raigeki not banned lmao
@Dominik Kuharić ah ok thanks for the answer
@Dominik Kuharić it's a bad card
Kind of a late answer. Too many monsters float into something else or have destruction immunity for raigeki to be not as broken and it is at 3 in the tcg.
@@chrisgg57 thats kinda crazy to me
I guess now i can finally use my super rare raigeki from like 2008 xD
Wheels, best to way to not hate YuGiOh is to play irl with other people.
To rebalance this game, konami as to limited the number of special summon per turns. Infinite special summon make the game turn too long and boring .
No lol.
Just use handtraps
@@RinaShinomiyaVal no the game is already broken. Try another card game and you will see the difference
Truth be told, both Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh! are pretty dumb.
YGO used to be a much better game. But the anime kept adding new and inscrutable and nonsensical garbage with each new series, until we got to this.
Ok yugiboomer.
I love this game, it's terrible.
Yu Gi Oh is superior than MAGIC!
