I’m not sure what Doug has to do to get a win in this series. His pulls this time were freaking cracked, yet Joseph had the somewhat perfect counter to the Harpie’s.
Play better. Maybe not overcommit cyber slash for no reason g3. Or misplay not being able to get over the 2k monster the same game. How is MBT the best player out of all these yugitubers?
it's because harpies suck without tri brigade. i've played pure harpies and they're a brickfest lmao. your best pure harpie play involves simorgh 90% of the time.
No, I don’t think he ever said that in a situation where he actually wanted to make the synchro rather than Hope. What do you want him to do, just leave them on board to get destroyed?
@@christianfender4734 use any of the other lvl 4s. He searched the tuner with harmonizing each time when there’s other 4s to use. Black fang wasn’t worth saving for instance.
I mean I also don’t know if he read nirvana high paladin. It can treat any pendulum summoned monster as a tuner. You don’t actually need a tuner to summon it 🤷🏻♂️
@@bulbasam2143 It does require a synchro as material, though. So you need at least one tuner for that, even if Paladin itself can circumvent the requirement.
@@OyVeey as it turns out, it is I who does not read cards. My b. There have been several times where I’ve considered playing nirvana in pends but always decide not to after reading it again. Pretty sure that’s the part that always makes me decide against it haha
Forget the Yugi-boomers, don't show Nirvana High Paladin to scientists. They'll spend all their time trying to decipher it instead of solving climate change, and then the complexity of YuGiOh may end up ending the world.
Timebreaker magician is one of those cards that'll probably never be meta especially after pendulum nerfs, but is absolutely fucking broken and insane in any closed format I've ever seen them used in.
It's also good at messing up the link zones as well. If you banish a Link monster in the Extra MZ when it return to the field it must return under the Main MZ.
seeing MBT summon white wing off harmonizing magician the first 2 games, and proceed to make the xyz instead of enlightenment paladin to add back pendulum call, the literally best card in this match-up was actually infuriating.
MBT managing to win without Astrograph, Timestar, Celestial Magician or Time Pendgraph against Dougs constructed harpie deck with like 10 harpie URs made my day
Summoning the Pet Dragon via Alluring Mirror Split is a nice way to get a decent-sized body on the field rather easily in Sealed Harpies, so it's a shame we never saw that happen. Even just as a wall in Defense position (2500, plus the 300 boost per Harpie on the field). Also in Sealed, I'd probably play one copy of Lady Sisters because it's an easy Lvl 5 or higher monster you can get access through Egotist. And when you have Channeler + Egotist, you can get Channeler, Sisters and Perfumer on the field with the usual combo, but then get 2 searches out of Perfumer (for example, like an Egotist and Mirror Split). Play the Egotist on the field, you now basically have 4 monsters, you can use the Sisters to link up into Conductor, and the other 4stars into Cyber Slash, etc. And you've got a Mirror Split on the backrow for protection. The issue with Harpies though it's that they're simply too high rarity to play in Sealed, imo. Missing Hysteric Sign is very tough (which definitely hurt here because it's your way to search Feather Storm which would have instantly stopped MBT for a whole turn basically, plus Hysteric Sign is easy to destroy with Conductor or Hunting Ground) Honestly I was impressed Dzeeff even managed to get his hands on a Cyber Slash, a Conductor and 3 Perfumers and 2 Channelers in 20 packs because believe me sometimes you can easily miss out on those and the deck instantly dies without them lol. 😭
Half serious/half joke question: have you ever been there for the deck building portion on the live stream? 90% of the time my deck is like 30 cards after playing the maximum copies of every playable card. The last 10 are just the trash needed to get to 40. You can sort of see how this works in today's deck, although admittedly my pulls were pretty good. Still, there were only 35 cards I wanted to put in the deck, so the other 5 had to be shit lol I didn't WANT to play Vampire Curse. I didn't WANT to play a Call of the Haunted that only works on two monsters in the deck. But I had no other choice other than even worse cards, so they made the cut. I'm just doing my best out here with 20 random packs :)
@@Dzeeff have you considered putting part of that deck building section into the video? like maybe just 30 seconds quickly going over why each card was put in? might be educational? great video, you did your best with the duel!
if Doug had a 2nd Cyber Slash I am almost sure things would have very differently, he was basically denied from his boss monster the entire 3rd match and not once did he pull Storm.
In G2 MBT made the mistake of overcommitting to a turn 1 pendulum without actually having the stuff that makes pendulum oppressive. During turn 4 Dzeef just had the long game on lock if needed, but MBT put his plays into top deck mode.
Hey Dzeef first off awesome as always man that was so close towards the end. But I have a Question. I was wondering if you guys could do a special where you try to make a Deck with all your pulls for this entire season like a really weird best of card pulls match both players pick 60 of your best pulls throughout this season and go head to head like as a bonus episode after this season is over , I don't if you'll want to do that but I think it'll be a fun thing to try . PS. Love your content keep it up you'll win the next time. Lol
It's so strange seeing mbt getting all giddy and excited over his daily Twitter thread but being only "ohoh! - this is a weird pack. - not one in 20 packs?!" when pulling for master saga
I was really hoping to see nirvana get summoned and MBT could've done it game 1 off the pen call. If he grabbed a timebreaker instead of the dragonpit magician he could've used the harmonizing summon effect to summon a second timebreaker. Use harmonizing and the timebreaker her effect summoned to go into his copy of lightning warrior, use lightning warrior and the pendulum summoned timebreaker to go into nirvana since it allows any pendulum monster that was pendulum summoned to be treated as a tuner. Was still fun seeing a deck I absolutely being played by MBT and him kicking ass with it though.
Welp, at least the duels were close this time. But man, Doug can't get a win even with the odds in his favor! Edit after the latest episode: what the fuck, Joseph.
I have a handful Royal Rare Harpie cards that I got randomly (never went into the harpie pack yet) and planned to look into building a deck around these for quite some time now. just to flex the royal rares of course 🙂
@@KhaPha when building a unique deck yes, mbt simply used all the magicians he pulled (from being lucky)and smacked them in a deck. Doug and most other players would have made a nearly identical deck to that. It was the obvious choice
I am not sure why everyone thought Doug had a good deck. I mean the main deck was good, but he literally had two playable extra deck cards. I have no idea what the plan was when they were eventually outed. I guess just win fast.
I agree, only 3 summonable cards that do something against pend magician. With 2 synchros with big bodies and own archtype removal. Don't know what he should have done honestly
Xianchen and Xianghshi I used to be so hype for before they got imported and their names changed. Summoning that one Pend XYZ properly was so bad and yet so satisfying
MBT finally not reading a card was the highlight for me. Heartbreaking when Dzeeff couldn't snag the win from it. Maybe MBT can play blindfolded next week to even things out.
this episode was great but i still feel bad for Chatting so much about making enlightment paladin over the xyz because it got back a spell but im so glad it didnt really matter in the end
What does Dzeeff have to do to win an episode? This was so bloody close and its just so painful to see him take the L once again despite all the good pulls
I wonder how things would change if you were allowed to break down excess duplicates of cards from the pulls? say you pulled ten of a single Normal rarity, letting them break down seven of them in order to craft another card from the same pack
Its a shame Doug didn't draw Feather Storm during that third game. That might have won it for him since he would have been able to break the banish loop and keep Cyber Slash on the field.
while mbt couldnt have summoned nirvana high with a 7 and a 4, nirvana high paladin doesnt need a tuner it only requires a pendulum monster being pendulum summoned and it counts as a tuner then for it, so rather than saying i dont have a tuner its more accurate to say i dont have the right lvls
It’s a shame even with good pack luck on his side and somewhat bad luck on MBT’s, that Dzeef couldn’t win. I think if MBT hadn’t pulled 76 he would have been in a lot worse shape
Mbt pulling skill drain and not using it when it would turn down hunting ground and most harpie cards since it negates his effect to become harpie lady is definitely a "skill issue"
Fun fact - this is only sometimes true. While many of the HL have that as an effect, Cyber Harpie Lady’s namechange is a condition and wouldn’t be negated. I figured Doug was pretty much always an Egotist away so decided not to play it.
@@MBTYuGiOh The thing is that egotist only works if you control a harpie lady, so unless he had slash or hl 3, all other harpies don't enable that card, that why I said this.
I’m not sure what Doug has to do to get a win in this series. His pulls this time were freaking cracked, yet Joseph had the somewhat perfect counter to the Harpie’s.
It is pendulum magicians vs harpies though, pendulums are a fair bit stronger generally. And mbt actually knows how to use them too 😂

@@dannyv233 it’s always easier to critique plays than to make them in the moment.
yeah, he has only 1 Slash
Pendulums that want to be destroyed vs harpies, yeah this episode was interesting, specially with all the insane pulls of this week.
MBT “I need a tuner”
MBT every turn *uses 2 tuners to make a rank4*

Eh, we don't need to solve either

God, it's so sad Doug never drew into Duster or Storm once in 3 games
Does he drew Vampire in 2nd game too?
Timebreaker magician is one of those cards that'll probably never be meta especially after pendulum nerfs, but is absolutely fucking broken and insane in any closed format I've ever seen them used in.
I play pendulum magicians and timebreaker has gotten me out of so many jams when the duel gets in a simplified game state. I love that card.
It's also good at messing up the link zones as well. If you banish a Link monster in the Extra MZ when it return to the field it must return under the Main MZ.

Agreed 😅🫱🏻🫲🏿😎
MBT getting all the rarest card and struggle to find a single copy of N/R seems to be the trend.
Love how even when having god-like pulls, Doug still manages to fuck his draw up by putting penis cards in his otherwise good deck. LMAO

I need the post match chat where Doug revealed he pulled both duster and feather storm.
At this point MBT is not the villian he is the main character.
Is Doug getting his revenge by lowering MBT's volume a tiny bit every episode? He's gonna be inaudible soon
MBT is genuinely the main villain in the story and Dzeeff is Joey Wheeler. Now to find who is going to be Yugi.
Welp, at least the duels were close this time. But man, Doug can't get a win even with the odds in his favor!
