The good old days of switching one monster to defense before you attacked just in case

This comment tells so many dueling truths...lol

this is what I do nowadays. I also set a trap jammer just in case last turn before attacking
Or even better yet, my friend who taught me how to play just deciding to NOT ATTACK ME if I ever set a card facedown, and then when I flipped up Dark Hole next turn he'd always get pissed lol...
This card ended so many friendships. I still main deck 3 copys
How do you manage to win if your hand is full of mirror forces. What happens if they destroy them with eg. Twin twisters and what do you do when they win because alot of monsters have effects that trigger when they are sent to the graveyard?
@@justarandomgamer6058 Because I promise he is still having more fun in the game than someone like you UwU
daniel dragotti I thought you can only run 1 mirror force?
@@Dreu01 you can run 3 copies now. Its that bad of a card in most formats even the new structure decks that get released have effects that would benefit or just not care about mirror force.
God has arrived
The salt associated with this card all the way back in the beginning was at an ascended level
beatleplayer1011 yup facts bro
Just when you think mirror force is dead and that you will never see it in play ever due to the crazy amount of removal and immunities.
It will get you.
Especially when hand traps can be played lol
It rly makes me sad, because I always loved the card
The Moment you Play against TD and you have quaking/storming mirror force and he attacks you
I got magic cylinderd at a locals for game never expected it
@@lukazdelar4598 yah there a reson despo the protection or floting mirror force is still a you never expect card as it make tarfied to attakc at all
There is always thay 1 guy at locals who flips a surprise mirror force varriant right after you build a huge board and push for game. Ohhh the salt...
Nobody ever expects the random quaking mirror force tech lmaooo
@@kingtoombs7430 Storming is ten times worse, since it also affects Links
@@pinkroseamvmaker6549 idk drowning mirror force is the one that salts me the most
@@danielclark653 It's a bit situation tho, so Storming sees more play.
Not that running either is a very good idea, anyway
Mirror Force was considered the most Cancerous card in my school days and is why everyone tried to get a Jinzo.
Mirror Force ---> "The most iconic trap card in Yugioh"
Trap Hole: "aM i A jOkE tO yOu?"
BionicReaper yes you are
Iconic
Solemn judgement-Am I a JOkE To yOu?
Torrential Tribute???
WhY nOt BoTtOmLeSs TrAp HoLe?
Did Yugi turn any tables with it? Mirror Force was at least used against Weevil and seeing the little shit squirm after all of his monsters were destroyed was satisfying to watch. Trap Hole, Torrential, Judgement... none of those were used in anime nor manga in any significant way and to be considered to be truly iconic the card must be a big deal both in anime and in competetive play.
Putting Revolver in the thumbnail is absolutely perfect. XD
Thumbnail is yugi
@@hexmexasdfghjkl2034 cap changed it somehow
Forgot to mention it's original text, negate the attack and destroy all face up attack position monsters.

Mirror Force is never dead. I still Main deck 2 Mirror Force in all my decks because nobody expects the Mirror Force. It's the greatest trap card of all time. Long live Mirror Force! May you indefinitely nuke all my foe's boards!
nobody expects the Mirror force inquisition
Just when you’re about to beat the current meta , down to one direct attack and out of nowhere... *mirror force*
Every time u speak about Yu-Gi-Oh in the past I remember how amazing and fun to play the game was
❤
I sometimes still run Mirror force to this day but it all depends on the deck but Storming Mirror force is still the best mirror force card
Adam Valero Drowning mirror force is pretty lethal too. I run it with a water deck for kicks
@@kenshinhimura8708drowning is good but it is a little less versatile than storming
Go to jail.
Drowning is ok in decks like Weather Painters that clear their own field and can have other priority targets for spell/trap removal to prevent the blind TT.
I also sometimes side storming against players who aren't careful around backrow, especially Salamangreat since they have to give up Sunlight Wolf to spin it normally, and they don't see it if they do.
Quaking was op in Zoo format and one of the reasons Paleo Frogs were so terrible to deal with.
Mirror Force was my first ever ultra rare back in the early 2000s! I ended up making my deck around it and Spikebot, the 2 coolest cards I had!
Sink into the Abyss of Bottomless Despair!
xolotltolox is it bad that those are the exact words I told the last opponent I used mirror force on
Mirror Force died when Traps became as obsolete as flip phones
I won't allow you to insult my phone like that.
Except they didnt? Battle traps are obsolete, traps are as OP as ever with a pletora of meta relevant decks running them, they just shifted from an engine of good generic traps to more archetypal focused ones in decks that support them.
Thats only regarding the main deck though, the side deck in the most part is filled part with generic good traps to counter specific strategies that a deck might have difficult against.
Nice way of showing you dont play yugioh competitively.
two words: Infinite Impermenance
@@guilhermemarinho9861 I think you do understand that for all intents and purposes Impermanence, Evenly and Red Reboot are not traps.
And before anyone tries to _"Achqiually you can still set them and you get certain benefits from doing so"_ me, think how much play they would see had you not been able to play them from the hand.
@@cookiecutter6735 That's is true, but the card is still a trap card, we also have things like the Salamangreat traps but they don't count
“Holy Barrier - Mirror Force”. The card has a way cooler name in Japanese.
Damn right. Fuck Crunchyroll and their dubtitles. They're not real subtitles.
@@darkglass3011 Wouldn't call them dubtitles since a lot of the dialogue would never show up in an english dub
@@djcrimsonsunbird3607
They're called dubtitles because they're subtitled, but use dub terminology. Look at the "subtitles" of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's on Crunchyroll.
They're atrocious because they use the English card names instead of actually translating and subtitling those names that are spoken by the characters. This is just the most obvious example.
Its as if God Himself hammered your field into oblivion. Hence its holy
Seiranu barria mirror fōsu
Yugi: I play Mystical Elf in attack position and set one card!!!!!!
I end my turn!
Kaiba: You set Mirror Force didn't you?
Yugi: Wha?!? No! Why!?!
Kaiba: you do know that this is why I have trust issues Right?
Mirror Force is great and all, but you should definently make the next episode about the Rise and Fall of "Raigeki the deck"
Day 41 of waiting for new Volcanic support
Raigeki still gets quite a bit of use tho 😐
Mystic typhoon
@@chatoicchaos1470 dust tornado
Magic cylinder
@@skydivescorcher6144 Magic Cylinder never really had a "rise" though. Magic Cylinder's place in history is as Yugioh's original overhyped card.
Watch them make a game breaking mirror force that's Rokket support.
Day 1 of waiting for Rokket Mirror Force
In before they call it Blasting Mirror Force.
HANOI’S NOBLE POWER!
Yes it could be new Rokket support but it could also be indirect support for Dragon Decks too.
Let it be activated from hand and call it the Force of Hanoi (?)
You learn well
"Let me introduce you to my grandson: Lightning Storm."
Lightning Storm is more like the offspring of Harpie's Featherduster and Raigeki

Still a great series Cap keep it up the great work
Holly barrier mirror force!
Damn right. Fuck dubtitles. They're not true subtitles.
聖なるバリアーミラーフォース
MegaCapitalG: "The Rise and Fall of Mirror Force"
Revolver: "Are you sure about that?"
I remember playing in the 5Ds era when many decks had 1 copy of mirror force, 1 copy of bottemless trap hole and 2 copies of dimensional prison. This made it always a dilemma rather to summon Stardust or Thoughtruler. Stardust was immume to the first two but Thoughtruler was immume to the other two. Several decks also still ran brain control and monster control so that sometimes made thoughtruler more attractive. However at the same time Stardust not only protected itself from destruction cards but also protected your other monsters.
If your felt safe though you would go for the third option in Scrap dragon. Those 3 were the 8 level synchro's everyone had.
Its strange to me you blame Shaddolls BA and Qli when we had things like Majespectre's and Kozmo's which weren't targetable or destroyable by card effects which ruined almost all previous forms of removal like Torrential Tribute, Compulsory Evacuation Device, and Dark Hole. That's when we started to get those other mirror force cards to try and deal with the ridiculous hole Konami was digging at the time. Storming came out with Kozmo and Blazing came out with Majespectres.
I had an MRD Mirror Force when I was younger. It was one of my most favorite cards.
Once an opponent stole my Beelzeus through Change of heart to attack me directly.
Beelzeus has 4000 ATK and can't be destroyed.
But I had a trap card laid from my 2nd turn of the duel.
Drowning Mirror Force.
I haven't seen that guy in Duelist Network since and now the website is closed due to copyright
The good old days where you would place a normal spell as facedown so your opponent thinks it’s mirror force and doesn’t attack
Man, I crushed a lot of people’s dreams back in ‘06. I was the King of Games my senior year of high school, and this card had a lot to do with it.
I love these videos! As player that joined when synchros came out i can relate to a lot of the timeline. and it’s cool to see how it was before I started playing!
Synchro is the most skill intensive mechanic in the game. When you perform a synchro, it's a show of resource management and well thought out planning; the true Platinum age of yugioh. Now we have Links: Synchros, but for scrubs.
I'd so regret getting rid of my mirror force from the metal raider series
There was 7 Mirror Forces in my small town. My friend had 6 of them. He was like Seto with his suitcase full of rare cards. They were all from that booster pack.
I never played tournaments back in the day but I remember when I opened metal raider I was lucky enough to get Solemn Judgement, Suijin and black metal dragon back then. I didn't know the power of Solemn judgement back then and was afraid to use it because half my life points were gone. I never was able to summon black metal dragon and the one time ever I had both Red Eyes and Summoned skull in my hand with Poly I got Magic Jammered and almost flipped the table. I had some good times back then. I just got back into Yu-gi-oh the last year and the same friend I played with almost 20 years ago is who I play with now. Its amazing how a childrens card game has kept friendships stronger than ever.
I play 3 Mirror Force, 3 Drowning Mirror Force, 2 Storming Mirror Force, and 2 Quaking Mirror Force in my 60-card anti-meta Graydle deck, along with over 30 other traps.
Love these history videos about old cards/decks/formats :D
Mirror force’s main strength is the psychological aspect. You have to have some sort protection for something so blunt.
Mirror Force was the very first big pull i ever got ,from the very first set of packs that i bought, from the very first time that i began playing Yu-Gi-Oh! way back when i was growing up. I ran Mirror Force all the way up until i quick the physical card card, many Many years later.
Honestly Mirror Force isn't as strong as it once was in Metal Raiders, it's ruling was changed and the negation effect was removed, so monsters that were immune to destruction effects or could attack from defense position that attacked would still have their attack go through, Mirror Force would probably see more play if it did negate attacks in addition to destroying the monsters
TheRetroReplay mirror force is not being played is due to floating effects on monsters
The bigger issue is the sheer danger of recklessly wiping boards, the negation loss is neglible, its the devastating power of setting off possibly five GY effects that might refill the board or grant other forms of advantage, thus why Quaking and Storming and Drowning Mirror Force are generally better, Quaking forces all ATK Position monsters into Face-Down DEF, and prevents them from changing battle position for the rest of their time on the board, Storming bounces all ATK position monsters your opponent controls to their hand, Drowning sends them to their deck
@@syrelian Yeah, we essentially returned to the problem Mirror Force had in 2014-2016 where recklessly wiping a board was not very effective
I'm a simple man, I see Revolver, I click
(Dammit! Almost made it to first...)
I recognize that its fall was way earlier and its rise was relatively short, but I still think a "The Rise and Fall of Magic Cylinder" would be pretty entertaining!
I would rather see him make "The Rise & Fall of Konami" I'm talking about a video that goes over the history of Konami and how they fell from grace.
I still play it against my friends deskbots
Their was 2 other cards as powerful as mirror force. They were Imperial Order, and Torrential Tribute.
especially imperial order, you could get by without mirror force but not having imperial order was a no go
Waboku all the way
MST, heavy storm, trunade, sakuretsu and book of moon were also on that list of cards you had to have.
In theory, Mirror Force should have made a comeback with Links given them being forced to always be in attack mode. Seems Konami thought this would happen too given its reverence in the anime.
In reality, Konami loves packing more and more free destruction and negates on to monsters. So if your opponents attacking with a ton of monsters, its likely that you in turn either have no field, or dont have enough cards to get through all your opponents negates.
It's all just because of the power creep float, pendulum and way too much accessible backrow destruction and you can see that even in the extra deck (phoenix)
Fuck Konami. They created too many negating cards and you can't play the game anymore if you lose the die roll.
@@darkglass3011 play crusadia.
That’s why I said they should make a new Mirror Force that banishes all attacking monsters.
Yea, once Tri-Gate Wizard and Gumblar got involved, Mirror Force had no opportunity to ruin someone's day after they Extra Linked you
In 2014/15 Chris abella won arg fort Lauderdale with nekroz and main decked 3 mirror force
We are in 2019
Nekroz only has single target protection, so unsurprising.
@@thekluwn143 obviously, I was just stating an example of a somewhat recent top with it
mirror force does have some use against beatdown swarming decks that have monsters with high attacks, so it does have some utility. You can punish your opponent for being too hyper aggressive and not cautious at all
Switching my boss monster to defense to prepare for mirror force is a nostalgic time
Give Mirror Force an archetype to go with like Trap Hole and traptrix and it becomes meta again. Definitely would love to see that kind of deck
Got a buster blader tin for Christmas in 2003,had mirror force in metal raiders pack.good times at locals
Keep up the good work! I love the storytime videos :)
I remember when I got my first mirror force. It won me my first locals as a teen. He attacked, I chained mirror force, he hit me with seven tools, and I seven tools'd back. I was never so hype in my life. I normal summoned and hit for game. I'll always love this card.
I still play them trolling cards just to piss off players.
Despite how much I despise most of you channel, the rise and fall series and SJC series are what makes me still watch your videos
Bryant Salcedo why do you hate his channel?

I would say there is one more staple card which is bottomless trap hole. It remained a staple in pretty much every deck from the end of DM, through all of GX and all of 5DS as well. In 5DS it was even stronger. As while it was counter by Stardust that was the only synchro monster that was immune to it. It was a big reason why the card saw as much success as it did because bottomless trap hole couldn't just cut it short.
You know what was released ALONGSIDE Mirror Force during that Era?
Seven Tools of the Bandit. No excuses.
That should make a mirror force for earthbound
Day 15 of no earthbound Support
Ahh I hope you know that they do have "support" in arc 5,right?
@@nerdgaming1015 it not printed yet so it don't count
Most scariest trap
Back then
Have you done a cyber jar rise and fall
My funniest experience with a Mirror Force card was a few months ago when Bird Up was viable. This one guy set one and passed. I did the enter Bird Up combo, including Oath in the grave and attacked. He activated Storming Mirror Force, and he was so sure he had me. I activated Oath in my grave, and he scooped right there, declaring that Yugioh isn't fun anymore. Not my fault he decided to play normal pendulums (a deck I'd never heard of).
I spent 40 dollars on a bent up mirror force back around 2010, oh how the titans fall
cap, you gotta hit me up with that rise and fall of six samurai. im sure john moore would love to hear it too
While it's true that Mirror force nowadays is useless; Storming Mirror Force along with 1 solemn strike to negate and cut the chain of the oponent's negation of SMForce, is still and will allways be an outstanding combo. Honorable mention to Dark Mirror Force + Quaking Mirror Force for creating a full banish on anything except links :S
To be fair, the current gamestate is so vile that most trap cards are useless... In fact most card that don't let you otk your opponent before they otk you I've been told are "too slow" and useless
@@InkubozuNikki Not quite. The way traps in the meta can be considered viable is:
A: Provide an easily usable blowout (Torrential Tribute)
B: Are the central part of an archetype (Eldlich)
C: Are a floodgate (There Can Be Only One, Gozen Match, Rivalry of Warlords)
Maybe Mirror force will return when cards start having protection from returning to the hand. I remmember when compulsary evacuation device was used in almost everydeck, which is probably where the inspiration for storming mirror force came from.
There's definitely some monsters with protections against bouncing, or being sent to the deck(and of course anything with generic card effect protection, or trap effect protection like Obelisk(not that he's good but he's an example)), but its not a super common protection
@@syrelian right because targeting and destruction seem to be more commom ways of protection and also unaffected by monsters effects or cannot be destroyed by battle. Since those are the most common protection the only mirror force that people play now and then is storming mirror force since bouncing cards, sending them to the grave, tributing, or sometimes even removal are the most effective ways to deal with boss monsters. Also mirror force ends up being a slower kind of raigeki with the only advantage of using it in the opponets turn.
@@syrelian Obelisk doesn't gave Trap protection, instead he has targeting protection
Now we have elemental mirror forces. Powercreep
Honestly is was always element based. The full name of the original mirror force is “Holy Barrier Mirror Force”. The epithet conveys it originally had a light attribute and it’s counterpart is dark mirror force.
this card still scares me this card can turn a game in a terrifying way I still get a heart attack when an opponent activates it.
Funny how this card was limited and everybody played it, now it's at 3 and nobody plays it, talk about irony
Because of konami fucking power creep. 2012 yugioh or 2014 should be the highest powerlevel decks should have.
Oh my God, Metal Raiders was released *SEVENTEEN* years ago. I feel old...
The funny thing is that everyone still plays around mirror force just by habit
The early stages of yugioh made the game easier to play. I know the arguement of that certain cards were busted (pot of greed, etc) but I’ve tried to return now and it’s just insane. I’ve switched to rotating games like Pokémon and magic because the cost of entry to the game is too damn high. Miss the days of staple cards like mirror force and monster reborn. It’s nice to reuse certain cards instead of having to buy all new cards when I want to mix it up.
Love videos like this for sure
No part on inzektors and the death of battle traps for a short time?
It pops up every now and den
THIS was my childhood and gives me huge nostalgia. Nothing better than watching the horror on your enemies face as they send their powerful monsters straight to the grave. The uno reverse card of Yugioh. The “You lose!” “No u” card! XD
Mirror Force, the Yugioh incarnation of the reverse uno card.
Next to Solemn Judgement, Mirror force is possibly the only old generation trap card that sees play in Yugioh. Otherwise there is also Skill Drain and Infinite Impermanence but we dont talk about those
Royal Decree the ultimate trap that destroys all traps, I'd protect that card wholly and have ways to bring it back just in case.
Oh how I miss the days of mirror force
I've been playing Beginning of Destiny on PS2 and it still boggles my mind that it was once banned and now it's considered garbage.
I think other cards that had an interesting history could be bottomless trap hole and Stardust Dragon.
You could also do one on Monarchs.
The only way Mirror Force can make a comeback without a big overhaul to how Yugioh is played involving a return to the old way (where both players you know, actually played) would be to make some form of it like "Destroy all attack position monsters, if this card is sent from the field to the GY without resolving its effect, banish all opponents monsters face down instead" so that it couldnt be destroyed early or negated.
It needs such drastic uncounterability to return it to the days where you were afraid of it, but at the same time still has the ability to be played around (monster that cant be destroyed, putting monster in defense mode (shock for the modern game!), floating monsters)
Also, having a card like that could bring traps themselves back into the game. A powerful card you were afraid to leave on the field but also afraid to destroy could act as a smokescreen for other cards in a way cards like Waking the Dragon dont.
yeah unfortunately, it's either you learn how to do broken link pendulum combos or dont play yugioh. i miss the good old days before pendulum and link where both players played a back and forth game. it isnt fun anymore
@@B2Bloodsplosion Well good thing we managed to address the issue somewhat and Trap decks are actually viable
Mirror Force is how I don’t die running Dinowrestlers, which need the Battle Phase like crazy.
I remember middle school too man
You should do the rise and fall of Raigeki next
its still used but not often used to be.
Please make more of these!!
“A symbol of hope” huh?
Brandon Castellano To the user
More like destroyer of friendships.
@@AxisChurchDevotee people who can't be friends with winners are meant to be losers after all.
Real friends can be beat by each other at things and make each other better not rage quit like a little kid but your right, its way to common for people to throw "fits" in this game
I loved pretending to have this against my friends and using a jar of greed instead. Just to troll basicly
Tbh even today Mirror Force isn't the worse card ever.
Blue Eyes, Pot of Greed and Mirror Force are the 3 most Iconic cards in YUGIOH along side Exodia.
Wall of Disruption is Duel Links' Mirror Force, super powerful trap card that caused players to attack with just a single monster, that has declined into almost niche use.
Ol' Papa G and his stories. We love em both.
There's always that one guy who loses to Mirror Force and then complains that his opponent played Mirror Force in the current meta.
You should do the rise and the fall of Dark Hole ^^
I thing quaking mirror force deserved its own place, changing face-down 5 monsters in MR3 was something very beneficial
Jinzo had way better art then what was shown. Crazy I didnt even know the alt art existed.
The OG "No U" card.
Here’s why no one plays any of the Mirror Force cards:
1. They’re too slow
2. They’re too easy to play around
3. They only hit attack position monsters
There needs to be a new Mirror Force that banishes all attack position monsters, if they can make a broken card like Evenly Matched, they can make a new Mirror Force that banishes all attacking monsters.
Drowning Mirror Force is still very scaring at Duel Links lol.
when i was still playing yugioh, i remember playing against superheavy samurais, They attack in defence, sooo my mirror forces didn't work =(
Dark mirror force
@@hollowroxas4742 you can't say that that's racist
@@SCHMALLZZZ no i am just saying the card dark mirror force when your opponent attacks you banish all defense monsters your opponent controls
