my strengths:
Understanding card text and how that leads to various interactions.
Being able to change my plays on the fly.
Weaknesses:
I enter scoop phase way too early sometimes.
I don't memorize combos for decks I play, so I don't always end on the most optimal board, even if uninterrupted.
i don't like long combos
i always mess up the order so 3-5 moves is usually where i like it
not including one off effects (like single target spells)
cimbos for me are play card that gets another that triggers some gy effects and lets you summon something that has an effect that triggers to do something else
the biggest combo decks i played was dragonmaids ,rikka and endymion (spellbook + spellcounter build)
but i always end up coming back to my boi blue eyes
simple beatdown rush no nonsense
Reading/Understanding words is not one of the abilities lol
honestly not reading has lost me more master duel games than my actual cards / hands
God tier comment lol 😂
Yugioh is easily the most thought-provoking and difficult card game ever made so far. With 20+ years of the game existing, the meta and theory of the game shifts week to week at locals and event to event for competitive. Playing your card is also hard to do perfectly. If you open a good hand, how can you effectively play around hand traps? How do you build your side deck? Are you trying to punish the decks you’re already okay against or side only for your bad match-ups? It’s hard, but also rewarding.
@@ihateyoutube8504 same here i always miss time on some of my cards.
Yet MTG players complain how much text is on a common Yu-Gi-Oh card from recent sets.
For me i love picking boards apart while also controlling my opponent. Not winning directly but slowly gain an advantage every turn is my play style. Because of that I tend to lose when my opponent plays a lot of boss monsters in one turn while I don't have the cards to stop him or keep him at bay.
See, I love grinding games. It's why I like to play cards that let me recover from big hits by my opponent. I like going second as well. Picking apart a board is fun. Some of my favorite decks are Machina, Arcana Knights and Skull Warrior. All three have a fantastic grind game that most people cannot deal with because their Board got whipped by my first move
machina is my fav machine deck.
@@mattyorshin Machina for the win!
Machina boooooys
What's Skull Warrior ?

Paul these past few videos have shown me that we view the game very similarly. I love decks that have choices in their plays and do different things just in case, I hate going first cause usually you should put a negate/disruption. I play "weird" cards from my decks for outs and can even use them in unique other ways.
I hope your having a good day
My strengths:
1. Understanding rulings.
2. Making decks by my own mindset.
3. Foreseeing plays against the majority of recently played decks.
Weaknesses:
1. Don't play a majority of hand traps like Ash especially (because I just don't like the card in general and I want to have playable hands).
2. Not big into casual, so some things may set me off.
3. Might be too quick to think on my plays and that may screw me up big time, if I don't stick to the plan.
Paul, I love your description of how you play “being greedy with your pluses”. That’s not me but it made me realize that I prefer to get over obstacles as quickly as possible. I will typically default (game 1) to feather duster(ing) even if there’s only one face down. I will make sure my first played card is a bait (if possible). I’ll purposefully set a weak field just for my opponent to over play, thinking they have nothing to worry about, and I can hit them with an evenly matched, clear their field and then go for the kill. Basically I think that typically I want my opponent to do as much as they can turn 1, and then I can come in, clear obstacles / pick their board apart and then gg. Obviously that line of thinking might have to change game 2 or 3 but that’s what I love about this game. There’s always that small mental chess game your playing with your opponent not just with what’s on your field but also with your hand, graveyard, or even banished zone.
Yooooooooo, happy Monday Paul I agree, I think our minds are built to like specific play styles and I also think it might translate to real life or underlying personality traits about us, which is pretty deep, thinking about it , it really makes Yu-Gi-Oh a quite 'personalized game in that way....deeeeep
My two biggest weaknesses as a Yu-Gi-Oh player:
1. I don't like running "engines". I like to play decks as fully "one thing" as they can be. I never used the terrortop engine back in the day. I refuse to use the adventure engine now. I like to play the decks I play because I like those decks. But if you're watering down those decks with engines, then you aren't play _that deck_ you're playing a bunch of engines and the "main" archetype is just a vehicle for it.
I want to play mermail/atlantean. Not _halq/nimble/adventure with some mermails._
2. I don't like playing conventional builds of the decks I play. I like to play really weird builds. Back in metalfoes format, I didn't play regular metalfoes. I played metalfoes/yang zings, and later metalfoes/crystal beasts. Both of which were objectively worse than pure metalfoes, but they were a hell of a lot more fun to play.
I love playing and baiting certain things and seeing if I can make players use their resources in a way that doesn’t actually benefit them in any way. I love watching the cards in your hand drop. I also love seeing what I can end board through different hand traps. Resolving dark ruler no more and super poly is also a guilty pleasure of mine lol

I feel like Pegasus sometimes. I find my biggest strength is prediction and reading how my opponent plays their board. This has the benefit of me being more adaptable as the set goes on. Game 1 me is always less scary than game 2 and 3 me.
I absorb my opponents options like a sponge. If we play enough, I read patterns well and if i had to guess I have a pretty decent success rate at predicting what's on you field, what your backrow might be and in rare cases, I can tell you've been holding on to card in your hand.
Depending on what I've gotten away with so far and where your boards are headed. I'll guess whether or not you've got a habdtrap, a boss or a dead card. Sure hand shuffling makes this tougher. But I'm watching still and I'm more so counting. Not worried about the placement in your hand. You put out battle trap bait? I'll answer it with my own bait or hold off just to see what i like to call "how-many-turns-comfortable" you are with that bait sitting there. If your hand is sizable and your back row is increasing, but you're not getting rid of that low atk, atk position monster. I know you're waiting on me. Etc etc.
My weakness? Being reckless. I often think critically and that can work against me and it some cases be used against me. I have a tendency to overthink and run into an option I swore was there initially, but I thought I saw something else and changed my mind. Because I'm pattern driven. Sometimes, especially after an opponent side decks? I'll fall for a situation that was a smoke screen of sorts.
My other weakness has more to do with deck building. I struggle at combining my archetype with other cores and engines. Mainly because growing up as a fan of the anime, I believe in playing pure decks. Nowadays pure is never really pure. But stronger decks typically mix and match archetypes. I find that unappealing, although necessary. That's my primary issue. But I also lack a lot of archetypal knowledge. So I struggle to even think if what I'd combine unless I've played it for myself already.
i love back and forth games. something you could see in the yugioh anime and feel like it belongs. best if it goes for quite a few turns
i absolutely love decks that can spam, and end with a huge monster. the downfall of that is if i get hit with scythe, im not going to have a fun time.
As a very new player, I’m not sure I have any particularly powerful strengths, but I’ll say the very large amount of questions I ask has lead to some very fast improvement. A huge weakness of mine (not just in yugioh but other games) is over prioritizing recursion. I don’t like doing something in a game knowing I won’t be able to do it again. This often results in not making more “high risk high reward” plays and comes up a lot in deck building when I run 2 cards I should probably run one of just in case it gets negated, banished etc.
I'd say, like you, resilience is one of my strengths. I typically won't scoop unless I'm pretty certain I'm gonna lose, and I've played through some stuff that even I was like, "So, uh, I'm probably dead, but I'll still make them kill me." (This is in Duel Links by the way).
This plays into another strength of mine, and that's: unorthodox solutions to problems. For example, I keep track of my opponent's current deck size, because I've totally won games by just... realizing that my opponent had searched/drawn more cards than me, and I have a monster that they can't get over and can stop itself from being destroyed. So I just... got that monster out, and turtled until they drew their entire deck. I just, try to view a problem from every angle, not just the obvious one, and I've pulled off some pretty crazy clutch wins as a result.
I primarily play Machina, and my biggest weakness is strategy. I can typically win a duel if I go second, but going first is often a struggle for me.
I’ve had the same trouble pulling the trigger in magic. But I was shown by others that leaving untapped mana is also a waste of a turn because next turn I might not have the mana to use that spell after a summoning. Causing me to lose. So ALWAYS PULL THAT TRIGGER EVEN IF IT CAN KILL 3 TAKE OUT THAT 1 👍🏼
As a magic player here, you might have the wrong idea. Leaving untapped mana can be a waste of mana, but mana isn't always important. As the game goes on mana becomes more plentiful and cards become more scarce.
You need to ask yourself what happens when I use this card and what if I don't. This is extra true when using a card that can answer a lot of things vs a card that is easy to answer.
Many times its better to waste the mana instead of wasting the card.
One of my weaknesses is that I struggle to get my head around mixing archetypes in a deck. The first example that comes to mind is galaxy solider being a staple in cyber Dragon decks. I understand why it makes sense but I like to try and keep my decks close to using only archetype specific cards as possible.
same but little tech cards can help.
I had a tough time getting my head to work with that as well you only get trough it when a deck just gets WAY better using some not named archtype cards like Burning Abyss running Fiendish rhino warrior and Tour guide they may not be Burning Abyss cards by name but they are for the playerbase
Weirdly enough, that's one of the things I like to do the most. You never know where you can find some unexpected synergy between different archetypes or effects, or both.
Imagine discarding Herz with Galaxy Soldier
POG A PURIST
Only thing I love more than playing YuGiOh, is preventing my opponent from playing YuGiOh. :)
I’m a big Joey wheeler fan so my biggest weakness and strength is not giving up no matter what because with the right combo I can turn around the duel. So I would say I have a hyper sense of Heart of the Underdog.

Idk how many people have this skill but mine is just foresight. I wouldn’t call myself a god of predictions but even against decks I’ve rarely seen I’m able to accurately guess what they’ll do during my turns especially since I like playing going second decks. I tend to play a lot of blowout cards like feather duster, dark hole, raigeki, lava golem, alpha, and evenly matched. Most times I play decks with super small engines where all their cards are one card combos (numerons, lyrilusc, etc) so for me it’s just “ok so I’ll bait him with the dark hole then use numeron network. Attempt to use left arm offering as a way to bait a ash then use network effect to get game”
I'm kind of the opposite of you on the first point.
I love, LOVE, building boards. (It's why I play combo decks.) I prefer to go first, set up my board, and dare my opponent to break through. I just find it *SUPER* satisfying to go through the motions of a 10+ step combo, and ending on a board of boss monsters.
I also get the resilience thing. I'm not the biggest fan of auto-scooping, and prefer to play turns out and see what happens.
I get what you mean about getting max value vs. going for game. Sometimes the right move is using Sky Striker Mobilize - Engage without three spells in grave, even though it feels so bad!
My playstyle is fairly similar to yours, which is why I like playing sky strikers. Just last night I was playing against a friend and spent a lot of time planning out the order I used my spells so I could get enough spells in the graveyard to proc the secondary effects for better efficiency
My strengths I'd say is mainly in my ability to find weird cards and make them work in my decks. As an example, my favroite deck is Sky Striker. However, I don't use the archetypal field spell. Instead I use Cynet Universe to recycle my links infinitely. Sure it is a consistency loss but in my personal opinion it's worth it. If nothing else it lets me summon Kagari to use Engage multiple times over. A card which gives insane draw power. I've also splashed in Imperial Iron Wall as along with Multirole it can essentially allow me to infinitely recycle up to three spell cards per turn as well.
My second biggest strength is probably my problem solving skills. Not to toot my own horn but I am quite proud of them and they come in quite handy in pretty much any deck that has a lot of varied tools (one of the main reasons I enjoy Sky Strikers so much in the first place)
When i used to play for my final rank climb in duel links I never scooped because even if they somehow disconnect when they clearly winning would help me get that 5 win streak that requires for KING OF GAMES
My strength: learning the various plays a deck I'm interested in can make. Going beyond the "standard" plays of a deck and researching obscure cards that could help.
My weakness: not researching matchups at all. If I was playing at locals, on Master Duel, or at a YCS, I wouldn't look into what's popular and how to stop it or the combos or anything.

Breaking boards. Def relate to you about seeing it as a puzzle
As a player, I value flexibility. My favorite decks are the ones that have some kind of option for various situations. Plunder Patroll is my favorite deck since the ships can do various things with the extra deck ships that can be cheated out. I've also been playing Kozmos recently because if Master Duel's no extra deck event. They are also fun and flexible. The bad news, I'm a slow player because I'm reading all my options. I also don't can't play specific combo decks consistently. Greatly prefer gameplay that can branch out.

First of all, love this pages content.
now, onto the prompted question.
I think my strengths and weaknesses both come from the same place: lack of knowledge. I picked up yugioh only a couple years ago through duel links and i fell in love with learning combos and seeing what different decks do. However i have nearly no card knowledge. I see traps and monsters everyday that I've never seen before.
My biggest weakness is i don't know what to expect from the enemy, and i don't know how to reliably hit any combo ive ever made. i just go.
My strength is i dont stop and im not afraid of scary boards. i feel like Yuma "feeling the flow" or Joey Wheeler just doing whatever he feels is correct at the moment. However jank my board ends up, I will still get somewhere even through joyous ash, infinite impereance, and the insane amount of interruption.
Also, go second deck gang
I'm a dedicated rogue player, so I feel what I struggle the most with is recognizing strong meta engines and whether they could benefit my strategies. This usually just leads me to outright refusing to run those cards even if they could be budget friendly mostly out of wanting to be unique.
For example the adventurer engine would work great in my Ancients Warriors deck which tends to exceed 5 summons in their main combo, but I simply can't bring myself to use them knowing that *everyone else* is using them. Another engine would be verte dpe back when it was legal. Although that was more because dpe was just a little above my budget ha ha

Yes certain players have certain skills, like how synchro players can do math, and how xyz monsters exist for the ones who cant count past 5.
Awesome video man! Whilst my knowledge is still very lacking it’s so rewarding being able to read what my opponent has and still set up a crazy board! But honestly for me Yu Gi Oh is about summoning boss monsters and your ace!
I feel like I adapt cards different, likely from being an old school player. I once stalled out a Blue eyes user after I bricked using dragons shield so he couldn’t deal damage with his dragon long enough for me to draw cards and turn the duel around (I was using a galaxy eyes/cipher deck). However because Ive been out of the game for so long I dont know a lot of the popular new archetypes and strategies
Man, I feel you. I can't quit cyber dragons for exactly the same reason: I just love playing through minefields to get my nova/infinity out and OTK or interrupt until they rage quit.
My weakness is i don't read no good
My weakness is playing decks that revolve around a combo, I'd rather build something that picks apart boards and simplifies the boardstate.
I love gren maju, Floowandereeze, Giant Ballpark and recently Umi control.
I've tried Salamangreats and Code Talkers and just couldn't get to grips with them.
I love deck building too. Trying to make stuff outside the box and non combo based.
I don't really know exactly what I am good at tbh but I do know that I have a problem with just using every single card I have all at once and not really saving anything for a follow-up that's a serious issue I have to combat sometimes and I have to mentally keep in mind "I should save this for my next turn"
You're either a sadist or a masochist. Also I've been binge watching all these videos, thanks for making them!

Mad respect for being a branded despia player. Love that deck and the Albaz lore.
I try to be balanced player while keeping up with the times. I hate having no hand or loading the board unnecessarily (ergo pendulums are a no no). Ironically to this, I run varied decks from Dream Mirror Chaos, Subterror Control, and Raidraptors, also practicing Tearalaments before pote. My hugest weakness is I prefer pure/theme decks and dissecting the board. So I tend to run fewer interrupts like Ash and Imperm in favor for cards that would fit the theme/archetype like Chaos Daedalus, Fiendess, and the Raidraptor traps. It's like the story of my deck is more important than how it runs sometimes. Finally, I may be scum, but I'll do until Vylon support comes.

Thanks, for the content... love these topics and discussions. Makes you think how you play and understand where your opponent is at, whether a new player or competitive player.
Based. My favorite deck to play is heroes, because they're a lot of fun and very flexible. You almost always have outs to opponents, and their ability to make boards is fantastical.
Same here. I love decks that like going first but also have built in going second tools like heroes with malicious bane or ab-zero for destroying monsters, stratos or acid destroying backrow, and honest neos and trinity for otk's, or cydra with their kaiju effects like megafleet, fortress and searchable jizukiru, sieger's and nova's attack boosts, and rampage's backrow removal and multiple attacking.
Hey man love yalls videos its kinda making me wanna play again. I'm a pretty good card player not just in yugioh, if I had to say what my weaknesses were when playing, at first it was monster/spell/trap ratios so I don't dead draw, apart from that my biggest weakness would probably be that the archetypes I like aren't ever mainstream or meta at the time.
Mine is I'm able to think 5 steps ahead in terms of what my combos want to be but cannot think for the life of me what my opponent might possibly do

My biggest “skill” or strength is also my biggest weakness and that’s being very bold and not being afraid of losing a card or getting hand trapped which makes my opponent hesitant but if there not hesitant i get destroyed ,so i almost always go for the most optimal play even if it’s risky or I get a neg in card advantage which is also y I play change of heart because to me change of heart is always a plus of a neutral because they have to negate the card or I get there card

I always struggled with improving decks and side decking. I can work with what deck I have well, but siding stuff or building for other matchups is a struggle, and seeing new variants of a deck can be hard for me to get my head around.
Tip: mst tv and well many other TH-camrs show optimal builds for everything.
As for side deck wise well that’s a given depending on the meta of your local shop or whatever places u visit the most play the people learn ur match ups what’s heavy at locals and such then build ur side to counter biggest threats at locals
@@therealrealwizz I look at decklists all the time, but I have a hard time adapting to newer builds of a deck. Like the Gearframe variant of Machina Infinitrack Trains, I just can't adapt to it
@@JakeTheJay my buddy has combo vids for this deck on yt
@@therealrealwizz I tried following them but it never felt right. When I play a deck a certain way once, that's the style I enjoy for the rest of time. All I could do while playing was criticize the changes
@@JakeTheJay honestly I have semi the same problem there are optimal ways to play but say unchained one of my favorite decks that I own I play that deck very conservative so I rely on my traps and effects to disrupt my ops but when I play vw im either going all in or I’m gonna sit on shen shen chuche my main problem is sticking to the linear lines of play and not thinking out the box
YGO players are built different.

I love going second but with baiting negates and then combo-ing off myself
I've never liked calling some cards auto wins, because I've seen so many times in my own duels as well as others, that flipping a single card doesn't always equal an auto win. I have a friend who has a tendency to always refer to cards as auto wins, but I don't think he's ever competed himself and it's a very different perspective when you watch people play through a very harsh interruption.
mhm You've never played Flunder into zombie world sided in despia. shit's hell since they can send the necroworld from deck.
One of the strengths I have as a player is adaptability. I never look up combos for whatever deck I'm playing, and just make them up on the fly. As I play, I find the optimal combos, the subpar, the awful, but I also find the routes that are incredibly suboptimal, but are also the out to certain boards simply because I end up -2, but I've broken the board and swung for game. The weakness of this is that it'll take a while to get to that level with each new deck.
A weakness of mine is similar to yours, in that I sometimes hold back "just in case". A lot of this mindset comes from playing in the old formats. "What if my combo is stopped?" "What if one of the attacks is negated?" Those thoughts are in my head constantly. "I have the ability to run them over right now. But if I don't?" Gorz still informs my attack order, even if I haven't seen him played in years. A lot of it is unwillingness to open fire because of "What if?"
I do watch combos, why not? Most the time someone has already abused it the way you are going to, and already did what you did. Now with that said, we all have our bosses we like to summon, but now you can't watch a combo that doesn't end on a Barone scythe lock... so I agree 100% on not needing the end board they create, but I see areas within their combo, my combos could be intwined(this doesn't look like the correct spelling but you get it)
@@theofficialk.a.m...p4760 I understand (intertwined).
Yeah, a lot of my playstyle is a holdover from when I started back in '02.
I think one of my most useful habilities is my speed reading, I can read cards with long text very quickly and I read almost every card I se, so is hard for people to surprise me with a card effect from the field or GY. I also rarely ever scoop and I'm kind of good at making decent plays in weird ways that look like obvious negation bait.
My skill is messing up and somehow still winning
This video was very interesting because we're both moreso of Going Second players but Im usually never the type to wait to chain a card to the activation of a card, like if Im on MD and I have that Maxx C you bet Im immediately using it as soon as Ik its not a backrow deck, sometimes this is good cuz it trades, other times the Maxx C just resolves and then entirely other times I didnt even realize its a backrow deck so I just wasted my card, and while I do consistently analyze the state of the game & the card economy Im still really greedy but not in the same way you are that you want to maximize the usage of your cards but instead Im often in the mindset that certain things wont even matter if I can win the game very very soon anyways, which sometimes does help but also sometimes just fucks me over, so its kinda a double edged sword
My only power is running of prerehearsed combos
Ah yes the art of going second. Can this hand break this board or do I scoop??

I feel like Yugioh is similar to a mix of chess and poker in a way that you have to calculate multiple steps ahead sometimes to find the optimal play, and you have imperfect information. As someone who used to play chess competitively I can for sure see translatability between the two.
Ive been using this comparison for years now, ive played more poker than chess and yeah yugioh is sorta like combining the two
I train in Brazilian Jujitsu and I think if BJJ was a card game, it would be YuGiOh.
It actually more like solitaire or a puzzle game the first player set up the board/puzzle and the second player can either choose to solve/break the board or scoop
@@rokmare the solitaire comparison is always really annoying how many other card games let you interact with your opponent on their turn, why is yugioh solitaire when in almost every other card game you have to sit through your opponents turn and can't do anything until your turn?
@@rokmare not really, yugioh can be too interactive for that , there used to be uknowns set that couldn't be simply found out or forced & now there are unknowns in hand that have that role
what's your fav deck to go 2nd with?
I have the ability to brick 8 hand out of 10
Try bricking with Sky Strikers 10/10 times.
I have...so I never touched the deck again.
My greatest skill is probably improvising, i can play with pretty much any hand that isn't a full brick, not Only that, i can find unique interactions between unlikely cards (necROID shaman + emergeROID call for example) and Ace bad match-ups with some Crazy secret play i end up finding in the middle of the duel.
My weakness is stress, my game gets shook in a bad day (like when i lose to witchcrafters x5 in the same day)
This is an important skill for everything, recognizing strengths and weaknesses, so it's a good practice to do it on your YGO skills. I'd say one of my strength is the will to learn new things, so that I can come back into the game after lang pauses, playing old decks like Burning Abyss but with new tools and figuring out new ways to deal with my opponents strategies for an eventual win after several losses.
I have heard rumor that they are adding casual and unranked to Master Duel. IF i weren in charge of that I know exactly how to implement it.
UNRANKED = Same banlist as RANKED but, look at all the Tier 0 and Tier 1 decks and ban the most important card in the Main Deck and in the Extra Deck in those decks. Than limit to 1 the second most important card in the main deck and the extra deck.
CASUAL = Same banlist as UNRANKED. Than 2 months after the implementation of UNRANKED implement CASUAL. CASUAL banlist will ban the most important card from the UNRANKED tier 1 deck lists main deck and extra deck. Than limit to 1 the second most important card in the main and extea deck thus creating an actual CASUAL and UNRANKED format rather than force feeding METASLAVES, down peoples throats.

I've come to noticed that I am a OTK player... Do enough for OTK and not over extend. If I can't OTK, I'm very conservative and will hold a pot of greed until I fully use it without interruptions or my only play.
Hmmm.
My 2 biggest strength's in Yu-Gi-Oh are:
1, playing aggressively and defensively when I need to.
2, playing combos that don't necessarily have a linear outcome.
My biggest weaknesses,
1, being a bit to trigger happy when it comes to certain handtraps.
2, refusing to play certain meta cards until they fall out of favor.
Tldr screw ash. I don't like how omipresent that card is.
Also, called by the grave is only on the limited/forbidden list because people kept complaining that they couldn't use their 70$ ash because of it
Change my mind.
My Skill is playing any Wind-Based Deck (excluding Floow, they give us a bad rep), but also Board Breaking. Got Top 32 at the 2022 Pasadena Regional with a Gren Maju Variant deck lolol
My strength: reading (actually true)
My weakness: keeping everything inside/bad memory
It's been awhile since I've played but I always had good deck building skills, and seeing the value of cards' utility before they were popular. Back in the day, one of my Chaos Stun builds topped a YCS, after which people netdecked.
I kinda wish there were a bit more videos like this. Something that can allow you to get into a player's brain and get a better understanding of how they work... Admittedly, I don't know if I'm looking hard enough, though. :P
I'm not sure what kind of strength I have while playing Yu-Gi-Oh! specifically since I haven't played that much against other people recently, but I do know that Yu-Gi-Oh taught me a bunch of fundamentals of card game design and deck building that I try to implement into other games. However, I do know that because I rarely play against other people that one of my weaknesses is not knowing when to hold back or let loose, since I tend to play against people who don't pour as much insight into these sort of things as I do.
Not sure if what I said here reflects to the question, but it does feel nice to let this feeling out there somehow. :P
Any advice for a yugi boomer going to locals for the first time since 2005?
Currently running a traptrix deck
My strength is probably in deckbuilding. Choosing ratios, getting it consistent, and optimizing the win-con. My biggest flaw is probably memory. I can't tell you how many times I have misplayed because I thought an opponent still had a card they discarded two turns ago, or got tunnel vision and could only focus on certain cards, and forgot all about backrow or graveyard effects. My biggest flaw makes me relate way to well to Gage in the progression series.
It might be because for the longest time I'd not touched Bo3 tournament formats, but personally, even beyond just the fast scooping, I can't get behind this mindset a lot of players have, of building decks that Just Immediately Lose to certain matchups/board states and that's fine. I prefer building decks that are versatile and can potentially find some way out of any situation, even if that comes at the cost of consistency. In my book, better to lose for bad luck (which is part of the game in any case) than because I was never going to win, y'know?
You gotta check out my gren maju deck. We are alike btw. I’d crush virus my opponent by tributing there monster & and add salt with activating morphing jar after
Irl I don't scoop for knowledge and maybe they misplay but if it's master duel and I see adventure... instant scoop
Good: I can pinpoint odd/off plays that me and my opponent makes. Gives me good insight on what the players are thinking and learn from. I learn decks very quick that way.
Bad: I get tilted easily. . .
To be honest with my self, I think I'm pretty good playing Salamangreat and punishing card interactions and baiting interruptions. My weakness would probably be playing any other deck lol 3 years strong
best of luck with the salad ^.^
My strength:
Reading the opponent's cards, like when I see a new card I haven't seen I will take my time and read it and I don't usually have hard time understanding them.
My weaknesses:
Scooping easily
Not knowing when best to use my cards (mostly handtraps) so I actually waste them
Getting a bit mad sometimes when I brick or when opponent happens to have that one response or when I had game but played my cards in the wrong way and so I end up losing
Great vid!
Getting ahead of myself is the biggest weakness I'll have the game or cards to break boards but I'll miss play because I'll get to anxious or excited and overlook a crucial part of my chain. So I guess patients needs work. My strengths I have no idea
I also enjoy the challenge of breaking apart a big board, though the decks I have aren't really all that great at doing it. I've got Dark Magician and Blue-Eyes that are pretty decent at it and my Satellarknight deck is great at breaking my opponent's board because all I have to do is toss Triverr on the field, and he bounces everything but himself w/o targeting
Even more than that, though, I actually like to be able to bounce back from getting my own board broken
I was kind of like this with sky striker, that I wanted the 3 spell in grave effects, also in master duel with only 1 kagari I almost always save her for turn 3/4, also I don't use that technique with shizuku add quick play activate reset to field with multiroll. I much rather add engage, also not activate engage even if I have it, so I can add the second engage with shizuku instead for an insane follow up.
@Team APS PLUS! The truth yugioh as no skills, what i meant by that, if 2 person as the same ammount of skills, by skills they are both equally used to useing the same deck, and they do a mirror match with the same deck, 1 person build the deck so no matter what hand he draw, regardless if he goes first or second, he win 100% and lose 0%, while the 2nd person build the same deck with the exception that it is a 90% wind and a 10% lose, so it is not an easy win, they play several game more then 1 2 out of 3 match, and the deck with the 100% win rate win all the time and that person with the 100% win rate deck says ha ha ha, since I win all the time I got the best skills at yugioh, then the other person with that same mirror deck with a 90% win rate response says poof that is not skills, how can you rely on skill if you got an easy win all the time. So who is the one with the most skills if they where skill in yugioh? A: the 100% win rate B: skill do not exist C: the 90% win rate D: non of does above answer are correct E: A, B, C does are all correct. Reply the answer, and I will reply the answer, and the explaination on why that is the incorrect answer if you got the incorrect answer and also why it is the correct answer if you got the correct answer, they are no price to win, because it is illegal to give price over the internet, so you have no obligation to participate.
My greatest skill is procrastination while crafting decks. I am unmatched.
I definitely love manipulating board states. It's the main thing of any TCG that I love. That and building engines in decks that work well together that I can make little lore stories behind, or finding ways to play old cards and engines in modern decks.
I was always super surprised to find out that I had any level of competency as a player but it made it sorry satisfying to win a few tourneys as a more casual/street player with a moderately competitive/mechanical mind
I have an interesting take on my own play. My biggest advantage is also my greatest downfall. I simply play my game like my opponent doesn’t have the interaction. Now to be more specific I don’t mean turn ending interaction; rather an ash or imperm. This wins me a lot of games while also losing me games as well. Also I think I build decks very differently more so focused on consistency and playing through interaction so I can almost always get my end board set up.
I generally prefer playing more slower control to mid range strategies that generally incorporate floodgates in the forms of continous traps. Not much of a fan of most of the wombo combo 10 minute turn decks at all. They are often very complicated to pull off I feel and easy to misplay with. Like you I also prefer going second and running board breakers over a million hand traps that I often brick on or don't do enough with anyway.
My natural tendency is to play oppressive combinations, aggressive strategies, with minimal flaws. One of the issues I ran into is that I would I always gravitate towards meta, because typically the top of meta in any game features this. It’s an odd feeling honestly.
One of my strengths is deception/perception. Im often able to sequence my plays optimally and act in a way that can cause my opponent to unknowingly misplay or be punished for taking certain actions. And conversely I can normally tell if my opponent is trying to do something similar.
A weakness of mine is that I can often get lost in thought about so many different plans I set up and thinking what ill do if they have x card that I can miss or forget 1 small thing. It doesn't always punish me but when it comes up it can completely derail my thinking making it hard to regain composure especially under pressure of time or being on the bubble.
I like to go 2nd as well
Play Mine summon Crimson Nova swing twice discard Hanewata pass turn WIN
my weaknesses is that I cant afford to build a deck even in budget right now, my strength is that I have fun watching people play XD
I'm really good at gradual development, refining my own awareness & my deck down to just get better & better until it & I can compete with anything & anyone , but I have a really crap memory , so I become inconsistent, I peak & then lose that a while after .
I like to go for reads and baits, especially against turn 1 DPE Andy's. Try to bait out DPE and then chain to either bounce or banish it lol
I’m gonna say this again but yugioh is in a weird point rn, I know there’s so many cards that can do a lot but it doesn’t matter the whole point of the game right now is to literally not let your opponent play. It’s not about getting the stronger monster or setting traps (unless you’re eldlich and also lame) but every deck now is just looking to not let you play anything. Now this is just my experience with master duel but it seems so many duels are just 1 turns now. Sometimes I’m running numerons too but I don’t have it in my hand and only my Kaijus or lava golems so I can only do that but people scoop once their monster is gone half the time. Nobody wants to sit there 10 turns for a duel
At 4:12 I thought you said "Brazilian player" and was wondering why they never scoop when playing yugioh in Brazil
I think my biggest weakness is deckbuilding, i try to build too "pure", thinking "oh, archetype card goes into archetype deck" when in reality there is a much better engine to play out the strategy. im not sure if a have a major strength ahaha
I like having a bit in the middle of first and second. If your opponent knows you have a going second deck they’ll pass turn I notice.
I also like going second. What I don’t like is that a lot of meta end boards are literally unbreakable if you don’t draw a perfect going second hand and even then you might not have a survivable board to fight in turn 3.
I never used to scoop in any game. Then I played yugioh. I just don't want to have to sit through their combo.
The card he was talking about was Branded Retribution if anyone was curious
I tend to try and avoid the most powerful strategies and cards in TCGs but I've come to accept they are necessary in yugioh
My strengths are playing through my turn as best as possible and picking the best interruption timings. My weakness sometimes is to ignore some cards and not read them, well that's something I'm trying to improve
