SAY GOODBYE TO EXODIA!
haga really was a shit

>>284061607why did he do it bros
>>284061607came for this
>>284058296>stops Yugi from sneaking in banned cardsBased Weevil
>subway
>subway?
>subway!
>>284058625You weren't watching subbed Yugioh in 1998, Ken-sama
>>284058296Bye Bye.
>>284058296>Gives his rarest, most powerful cards to some shifty looking stranger when he could have just held them to them off insteadWhy was Yugi so retarded?
>>284066494I'm more surprise Pegasus did not disqualify his ass
>>284066533Not like Pegasus was even there to do so. He didn't meet with the competitors until they were on the island.Besides, there were a lot more blatant cases of cheating on Duelist Kingdom than that, like Mai's perfume cards and Bandit Keith outright taking his cronies' star chips by force.
How many copies of Exodia exist in-universe? Like, we know there were four Blue Eyes. We know more than one copy of Exodia exists, even in just the Duel Monsters era, but I'm curious if Yugi could've gotten another set down the line if he really wanted to.
>>284067039I was reminded of Mais perfume cards when the FBI broke that rigged poker game recentlyThey were using a special ink with glasses that could see it
>>284066494yugi never bought a single card or booster pack his entire life. his grandpa owns a card shop, so he just gets all his shit for free. he legitimately does not understand the value of them outside of the silly little game
>>284067264Makes sense. Runs in the family too since his Granddpa valued his Blue Eyes solely for sentimental value than for monetary ones.
DURO MONSTA KADO
>>284067103I doubt they ever said but my assumption is that the pieces aren't quite as rare as blue eyes on their own but considering you need all five to actually use them, the functional rarity is exponentially higher>>284067264>>284067685it clearly takes a backseat to the whole power of friendship thing (and is kinda undercut by his blatant hax) but there's an undercurrent to the entirety of yugioh about not being a slave to the meta. kaiba isn't successful because he bought the rarest card, he's successful because he's painfully autistic about his oneitis with that card
>>284067736https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsoY3W8-2zQ>sounds of Haga's death screams intensifies
Modern Yugioh designs are terrible. Too robotic. Too much weird orbs and weird looking aura stuff. And of course too many waifus. I know that Yugioh always had many waifu cards since the beginning and even waifu archetypes like the harpies, amazons (both Mai's cards) and the valkyries (anime original filler) but it is too overwhelming nowadays and they look like generic waifu whores. Just look at this. She looks like a terrible FGO design. There is even a new card that looks like the Arknights character Surtr. Someone calculated something like 30% of modern archetypes or modern cards are some kind of waifus.
>>284068843The Surtr card.And the knight to the Labyrinth monster ( white haired girl with the giant axe I posted here) who is supposed to defeat her is also of course a girl.
>>284068843>>284068873Like I said there were many waifu cards in the very beginning of Yugioh even in the first Konami Yugioh card game video game predating Dark Magician Girl but they weren't as overwhelming as it is nowdays and their designers were a lot better, not that generic more DnD like and old fantasy anime like.
>>284068843>>284068873The female knight to the Labyrinth monster Demon Lord. Of course with yuri implications.
>>284068843I'm a YGO oldfag, but I quite like Diabellstar's designs. She'd have gotten me back into the TCG if the modern game wasn't such a clusterfuck.
>>284068843Agree with this design being bad.>>284068873I like this one though.
>>284068966I tried Master Duel and it is insane I wonder if I could figure out how to actually make my deck playable. I try to copy one of the Cyber Dragon recommended deck. I bought the starter deck for it and it was still terrible. I couldn't do anything against the opponents. Duel Links is more fun because you can fight against computer enemies.I have to agreee with the solitaite statement.
>>284068873Prom Princess is cool though. There's only so many ways you can make an anime girl and Yugioh has 3000 different ones. A similar design is bound to pop up here and there.
>>284069075You should play a deck like sky striker
>>284069089Ra knows they've already well exhausted their dragon designs at this point.
>>284069103I'm the guy who complained about the waifuization of cards here>>284068843Although I find Raye kind of cute. I never watched her anime, Konami is competent in making Yugioh anime but her anime looks too much like a generic gacha one and seems too much heavily loaded with yuri.
>>284069103>>284069221Raye is also not currently avaiable in the game from what I know.
>>284069221>too much heavily loaded with yuri.Homoeroticism should be expected in YGO at this point.
>>284069261What? Raye has been in both Master Duel and Duel Links for ages. It's literally one of the most popular decks of all time.
>>284069296I saved both her recommended deck and the cyber dragon recommended deck for new deck building. I looked up where to find her card and it said currently not avaiable. I found the Cyber Dragons in their starter deck and they were also in the booster that had Cyber End Dragon on it.
>>284069342Pretty sure you must've clicked the alt art version. You can only get those via limited time packs (to cash in on whales)
I used to think Weevil was Trunks when I was a kid

>>284067264We see him shopping for new cards with Tea before Battle City.
I decided to play Yugioh again and I realized modern yugioh is fucking shit.it takes like 10 minutes for your opponent to end his turn. He keeps summoning monster for an infinite amount of time.>summon monster>activate effect>summon another monster>summon xyz monster>summon link monster>activate effect>summon monster from graveyard>summon xyz monster>activate effect>summon another xyz monster>fusion summon monster>now you have 4 monsters with 3000+ ATK that can negate card effects once per turn>battle phase>attacks with all monster>he keeps summoning link more monstersIts all so lame. I literally sit there for 5-10 minutes waiting for my opponent to end his fucking turn.And the duels only last for like 5 turns too (maybe me and my opponents are just too shit to last longer).They should have stopped at xyz
>>284068843What's the point of waifu cards when they're covered from head to toe in clothes?
>>284069845that's the best part of YGO you bakaif you want something slower, go play Magic or Hearthstone.
>>284070191innocent little girls? no, they are demons
>>284058296When you think about it, it was a good way for Yugi to lose his I win button given how the Pharaoh's powers work, otherwise the whole tournament could have been about either the characters playing around Exodia or making you think "Yeah but he still got Exodia even if this plan fails".
>>284069600You generate an SR to get access to the secret pack. Sky strikers just got some serious fucking support in the previous pack so they are very strong
>>284058296How did Yugi win the tournament when his deck was all about delaying the match until Exodia was summoned? He was missing a full deck, while also having cards that did not have a means of creating a cohesive strategy together. He should have lost.
>>284068873I never noticed that she doesnt have forearms
>>284068896You’re yearning for a bygone art style more than finding fault with character design.
>>284070540Now that I think about it.Would Yugi have been disqualified if he didn't have a full deck? Could you enter a tournament with less cards than the rules stated? Was there even a rule to begin with?
>>284070191Metaslop is not true yugioh. Duels used to have more interactions than I NEGATE YOU.
>>284062109Duelist Kingdom happened long before the ban list, and I don't even know if Exodia's ever been on it.
>>284070583>Would Yugi have been disqualified if he didn't have a full deck?I think yes. I have to look into the Duelist Kingdom cards rule but the 40 cards rule is there since day 1.
>>284067103Canonically we've only seen one real one, but four people have used it in the past:>Solomon>Yami Yugi>Marik's Rare Hunter (owns three forgeries)>Gozaburo Kaiba (sacrificed to summon Exodia Necross instead (also was in a virtual world when this took place))
>>284070621I'm not arguing about that, YGO meta has been disgusting right from the beginning (teleDAD, airblade turbo, Relinquished etc etc); just don't play competitively.But summoning a million times per turn and doing overcomplicated nonsense combos is the main attraction of this game, at least for me. If you let your opponent create a doom-board with 6 negates, you aren't playing the game right.
>>284069600You're trying to generate her alt art which you have you roll for and not craft
>>284070830I guess he had back up cards.He lost three of the Exodia pieces correct? I wonder what he grabbed to fill up those five empty slots, he sure as hell wasn't going to keep a bunch of useless Exodia pieces..
>>284069845You should try playing Genesys format, it does in fact stop at xyz.
Was Exodia some super god or something in lore? He is a pain in the ass to summon, but instant win makes him technically a more powerful god summon than the other Egyptian deity cards.
>>284070944He was an overwhelmingly powerful Ka on par with the Egyptian Gods and so had to be sealed in five different stone tablets to keep him from running out of control. At the time the Blue-Eyes White Dragon was also nearly as strong. None of them could stand up to Zorc Necrophades though.
>>284070944Hes supposed to be the christian god.
>>284070856>just don't play competitively>you aren't playing the game rightGet your story straight. Fun decks aren't meant to abuse broken engine slop or end up in several omni negates.
>>284070975Also I should mention the Egyptian Gods also have an instant win condition; if they're fused into Horakty you win the duel.
>>284068843Old yugioh cards look like paintings, the new cards look like theyre from deviantart.
>>284070583Yugi would, but only if Pegasus had taken his own tournament more seriously, which he didn't.
>>284071037I like how the moment Kaiba lost the Battle City tournament he threw a tantrum until the very last moment, from seething at Yugi to threatening to blow up the island before the finals were complete, to setting the detonation before everyone else could leave the island and retiring from dueling until he built Kaibaland, locking his deck and duel disk in the KaibaCorps vaults so he wouldn't be tempted.
>>284066533Like he cared the point was to set up a stage to get the puzzle and prove to the KaibaCorp board he was worth backing
>>284071420That's only in anime. In DSoD movie which is a continuation of the manga, he decides to create >new holographic technology >a space elevator>a huge ass expedition to Egypt to find the temple where they had the ceremonial duel so he can get the millennium puzzle>a quantum computer to solve the puzzle >a big brother surveillance system to watch over the entire city which he controls>a transport machine that uses the 8th Millennium to travel to the afterlife, which is basically a one way trip and because the living can't last long in the afterlife he's also slowly dyingAll that just to get his salty rematch
>>284071838Do GX and 5DS still happen in the future of the manga? Earth's level of technology is rather high by DSoD, which fits for a distant future, but not for one that already had an established future.
>>284066533Pegasus stole his grandpa's soul.
>>284068843I don't pay attention to the card art. All I know is that the anime TV series had degraded into baby shit, when this was supposed to be the more adult alternative to Pokemon.
>>284070986Fun decks (e.g. Speedroid) can absolutely churn out multiple negates in turn 1 (e.g. 2 or 3 of the Clear Wing variants) without relying on any broken meta engine. They just won't be able to do it as reliably or with as many negates on the field as meta decks.By the way, since you're avatarfagging as Joey: Red-Eyes decks have their own negate cards too.
>>284071937Didn't his gramps wager it in a game? Why did Yugi's grandpa accept a challenge from a weirdo like Pegasus?
>>284070583Yes, in the manga you actually were only allowed to bring 40 cards into the island, the spares had to be left with the staff. Which technically means Joey cheated by having Red Eyes.
>>284070621YGO was a negate fest a few years ago but Konami has actively tried to move towards more nuanced and layered interaction in recent formats. Occasionally cancer cards slip in (Pair-A-Dice Smasher, Artifact Mjollnir), but the meta has actually been pretty decent-to-good recently.
>>284071906 I think so for GX. IiRC Duel Academy get brought up in the manga. I could be thinking about the R manga though. The GX manga is way more of a sequel to DM then the anime tough
>>284058296Weevil was lucky he pulled this shit on season 1. Had he done something like that on season zero Yami would have retaliated by making him play a shadow game and he would have never even reached the duel kingdom. Seriously, season zero Yami runs laps around Bakura and Marik.
>>284070191>something slowerBro I'm waiting 10 minutes each turn already how much slower can it get?>>284070900Interesting. Can I play it in Master Duel?
>>284071037>Battle City Kaiba doesn't disqualify Marik for using a fake name>anime original filller Grand Prix Kaiba wants to disqualify Ziegfried for using a fake nameTo be fair he wanted Marik to be in the tournament to get Ra and he didn't want his company rival to be in the Grand Prix.
>>284072936If he had pulled that in Battle City, Kaiba would have had him disappeared because he was handicapping Yugi, who Kaiba wants to beat at 100%.
>>284072976>Bro I'm waiting 10 minutes each turn already how much slower can it get?You know all those staple cards that everyone fills half their decks with? Play those. Interact with the opponent.
>>284071838>a big brother surveillance system to watch over the entire city which he controlsHe did the same thing in the Toei anime movie that had Red Eyes Meteor Dragon in it.
>>284072015The guy you're replying to is not the original poster lolBut since you have some expertise, my main deck is cyberdragon and it worked well a couple of years ago. What should I do to negate all the spam in the first round?
Ban all link-1s
I wonder how Yugioh would be if Bandai kept doing the cards. Bandai fucked up by not introducing the life points despite 2000 life points being mentioned in the very first Duel Monsters game in the manga and them also appearing in the Toei anime.
>>284069845That reminds me of these two videos:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAYv2gLzh_Ihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CERGa1b0wT8I wanted to say Joey and Kaiba never used female humanoid cards but then I remembered that Joey used some cards that Mai also used in the virtual world arc as a rememberance of her. You could say that Blue Eyes is female, that Blue Eyes is a waifu but it is not a female humanoid. I don't rememver Kaiba using something like that.
>>284073451Did Joey ever try to enter other tournaments by himself? Since he is beating people who were regional champions by BS, he could have went solo without Yugi needing to hold his hand.
>best archetype never showed up in the anime
>>284073531He did participate in the filler arc of Kaiba Corp Grand Championship. Yugi didn't participate in theory but a duel against Yugi was the prize for winning the Championship and Yugi was one of the audience but he was with Joey in the theme park.Joey lost against Ziegfried who won against Rex and Weevil by doing an OTK with his valkyries.
>>284073451
>>284073451Kaiba used Gift of the Mystical Elf and there's that one card he used to jam the gun of one of Pegasus's goons.
>>284073792>one card he used to jam the gun of one of Pegasus's goonsWas it Gyakutenno Megami? That card was part of his starter deck.
>>284073863Yeah.
>>284073773Is Red-eyes a girl too?
>>284073985They are Cross Duel mascots who cosplay as monsters.
>>284061607Literally what Yami s0 would have done.
>>284073773
>>284074083Oh, dang.
>>284062109They are limited, not banned.
>>284074083>Cross Duelthank you for reminding me of that shitshow, damn thing didn't last a year before it was memory-holed. with good reason too, it was terribleat least I think someone ripped all the art and models from it
>>284074520I never played that one. I only know that there were 4 players and one monsters atk gets reduced by the difference between its atk and the other monsters atk after it defeats the other monster. What were its problems?
>>284074610it barely played like actual yugioh, the 4-player structure made it confusing and frustrating, monsters had random effects different from the real cards making it even more confusing, plus the game ran like absolute shit and crashed constantly. I'm assuming it also had crappy monetization, but the game was so ignored that I doubt anyone ever spent any money on it
>>284062109in any case it helped Yugi to build a better deck that don't rely on exodia
MtG ripoff
>>284075193It was a MtG parody at first.
>>284069075Duel links is better than master duel for getting back into the game. The rules are simplified and many older cards are still viable in the metaThere’s also speed duel which is just duellinks but with physical cards
>>284075193>MTGfags spend years being holier-than-thou about every other card game>their game turns into complete corporate sloplol. lmao, even.
I don't understand why they don't try to do something like Capsule Monsters Online or Dungeon Dice Monsters Online. These games work better digitally than as board games.
>>284075354>their game turns into complete corporate slopIs Yugioh any better in that regard?
>>284075415I don't see Dwight Schrute in a Yugioh card.
>>284075354>turns into>they bloody ripped off startrek and babylon 5.Fucking lorelet
>>284069559This is /a/, you know, the board for people who enjoy ANIME and MANGA. If you wanna complain about “anime onlys” go back to /tg/, faggot
>>284070191Nothing wrong with game being fast paced. But card games shouldn’t have fucking 15 minute turns, that’s the opposite of fast. Finish your turn is 5 minutes or less you dumb ass nigger.
>>284075329I try out both. I try to do one PvP ranking to duel per day to get the rewards in Master Duel and to understand the deck better. And I also try out solo duels on Master Duel.
Are there any good solo player video games for the XYZ, Pendulum, Link formats?Yugioh used to have good video games for the original series, GX and 5D's. They are an easier way to learn the game and a few tactics.I wonder why Pokemon only made two TCG video games (the original TCG one and a remake also for GBC that was only published in Japan). I wish Duel Masters had more staying power. I also loved that game. With Pokemon my only experience is the video game. I don't know much about Magic. Until recently I didn't even know that it had life points. I thought it had shields like Duel Masters does.
Back in my day we didn't have waifus we just jacked off to cards like pic related.
>>284075648nice meme but not really true
>>284075682Those aren't waifus those are mature confident women.
>>284075648Right...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amPFP2QCHic
>>284066533Pegasus is the biggest cheating fraud in the entire franchise. Anyone who uses Toon cards deserves to be shot.
>>284069845I think it used to be worse without hand traps. Maybe it got better in the TCG
>>284075329> speed duel Is that Rush duel? The free summons like pendulum makes normal cards useful but isn't the gameplay just getting a bigger beatstick?
>>284077750No, it's closer to the main game but with restrictions like 3 monster slot not 5, sometimes restricted cardpool. Like DL. Nothing to do with rush.
>>284077750no, Rush Duel is it's own thing (although Duel Links lets you play it)Rush Duel is a Japan-only game with it's own cards (picrelated) and rules. largely similar to normal Yugioh, but it's a different gameSpeed Duel is a game mode for the normal Yugioh game, it uses the regular cards (but a much more contained cardpool), a smaller playing field (3 monsters zones, 3 s/t zones), smaller decks, and special character abilities. I think Konami has abandoned it by now. nowadays they're promoting Genesys, which is another alternative format with it's own cardpool and point-based banlist (it plays closer to modern Yugioh, but with a less bullshit)Duel Links is a digital game (mobile and PC) that primarily focuses on Speed Duel gameplay, but also added Rush Duel more recently. has a variety of gamemodes you can play, but the gacha is extremely predatoryMaster Duel is another digital game (PC, console and mobile) that lets you play the modern card game. it almost exclusively focuses on competitive play, and the gacha is surprisingly user-friendly with every card being accessible for free and little grinding in general
>>284077750Speed Duels and Rush Duels are different things but both are playable in Duel Links. Speed Duels uses normal cards and there is only one normal summon per turn. The deck size is 20 cards I think they can get up to 30 cards. There are skill cards in Speed Duel. Speed Duels were published in the West but not in Japan and Rush Duel wasn't published outside of Japan.
Are there any specific OCG/TCG rule differences or are the only differences between these two formats the cardpool and the banlist?
I often think about 5D's Turbo Duels when someone mentions Speed Duels. I wish they brought that format into real life.
>>284078246there are very small differences on specific card rullings, based on how judges determine certain interactionsfor example, this guy's second effect that summons from the GY after detatching two materials: on the TCG you can't pick that effect if your GY is empty, even though the detatched materials go to the grave before you choose the effect. why? because a judge said so
>>284078650Are there any differences regarding the when can and if then rules? Or the chain rules?
>>284079447I'm not really familiar with the intricacies of rulling, but I believe most of it is the same between OCG and TCG outside of specific judging calls. the nuance in card text tends to stay accurate to the japanese too, as far as I know
>>284079447>>284079759addendum: yugipedia has at least this one page showing some rulling differenceshttps://yugipedia.com/wiki/Simultaneous_Effectsyou'd have to dig deep to find every possible difference, I can't seem to find a page compiling it all
>>284070191>magic>slowerDon't know anything about hearthstone but when your opponent is dropping broken leylines turn 1 and curving it into a broken 1 drop and 2-drop everything past round 3 is a glorified victory lap.
>>284075494>This is /a/, you know, the board for people who enjoy ANIME and MANGA.And GAMING!
>>284079912no one here knows that meme anymore, grandpa
>>284080701It isn't that old
>>284069845>last for like 5 turnsThat's incredibly long by YGO standards, if it's not settled by the end of turn 2 then you and your opponent both suck
>>284079835Is there any TCG without power creep?
>>284058296Wouldn't it have made far more sense to do a slight of hand and switch the real cards for fake ones and give them back?
>>284061607Why did he put his legs through the railings?
>>284081550dsfargeg
>>284078311That would make for the fattest lawsuit.
>>284075648Kitkallos and Labyrinth are the new hotness.
>>284081550>>284082373Holy shit, I came to this thread to say funny shit and complain about people who complains about the new cards. Not to feel old.
>>284082705So is Lady Labyrinth and Lovely Labyrinth the same person or...?
>>284082705>2022 hags>new hotness
>>284082118Kaiba pulled that shit in the manga and Yugi caught his ass, he's too much of an autist not to notice.
>>284082804Lady's card has more attack and defense than Lovely. As for the same person they are. Lovely just looks goofy and Lady looks competent.
>>284061607Jfl
Isn't Exodia actually hard to use IRL play?
>>284083075it was extremely overpowered for a very narrow period in the OCGSangan and Witch of the Black Forest triggering from being sent to grave from hand (not just from the field) plus Graceful Charity at 3 copies meant easy Exodia pieces
>>284083160Didn't the OCG also have Cyber-Stein OTK's since it was introduced?The TCG also didn't introduce Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon until the GX era.
>>284082083No and thinking its a bad thing is silly. Of course the game is going to change over time. YuGiOh even does what Pokemon did and revamped their Gen1 TCG to fit into the modern game by adding new abilities to old cards, look how the God cards were redone. You can still make the game more interesting and play with old cards and original rule sets on your and many card shops do this for fun. I do like YuGiOh for also reprinting older cards too.
>>284083075>No cards on his field or in his hand>Draw Bubbleman>Activate Bubbleman 1st effect: No cards on field or in hand? Special Summon it>Activate Bubbleman 2nd effect: Summoned Bubbleman and have no others card on field or in hand? Draw 2 cards>Draw Pot of Greed>???>ProfitEvery. Fucking. Time.
>>284083004Their boobs and white dresses and silver hair reminds me of Azur Lane.They could be weird designs for the Royal Nayv almost like a Royal Navy/Iron Blood mixture.
>>284083160I feel like the luck to draw would be pointless because your opponent will eventually use a hand wiping card anyways. I saw some videos of certain combination of cards can be used during setup to find Exodia. I personally feel like Exodia just wouldn't be worth it.
>>284083200I love that he got his own card. He is truly Super Saiyan Kaiba.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yejVUutcQ0g
>>284083235I like fans making Labyrinth into a silly yet powerful klutz. >>284083289I like him actually teaming up with the main cast. Makes it feel good to have them all together.
>>284068843>>284068873>>284068939>>284070191>Owns most GAR card game ever made>Turns it into generic gatcha yuri slopHonestly, fuck Konami. What's funny is that they only started mass printing this garbage only after Takahashi died.Also if people think that only female designs are attrocious then they should see the male ones too.I guess Konami wants to turn YuGiOh into "modern audience" type of game.
I forgot, did KaibaCorp made the cards or somehow Konami exist in Yugi's world?
>>284083599KaibaCorp made the duel disks and holograms. Pegasus made Duel Monsters card game which he revived from ancient Egyptian lore.
>>284083651So Pegasus is the sole producer of the cardboard crack?
>>284083200>the God cards were redoneWho. The. Fuck. Cares?? That's the equivalent of painting a Chess piece in Warhammer or Tic-Tac-Toe and saying "you like Chess, right? This is totally Chess, haha". You may as well be saying "look, they added Slifer to Fortnite", add [Good News] to the topic field and that would elicit more of a reaction. It means zilch. Nothing. Called the cops.
>>284083725Basically. IRL the game would actually be called Pokemon though.
>>284082348Wanted to do it for each railing, but got tired of editing after the furst rail.
>>284083736Is this an AI post or ESL? I can't even read this slop.
>>284083968tbdesu i've read that post 3 times and i've got no idea what he was trying to say
>Anime Duel Monsters is a vicious card game where people lose their lives, real YuGiOh is kind fun and cheap for all and people can ACTUALLY play the game>Anime Pokemon is kind fun and cheap for all, real Pokemon TCG is grown men fighting over packs of cards and reselling them 1000% markup and nobody actually plays the gameWhy?
>>284083898
>>284083968I play Tic-Tac-Toe and replace X for a rook. That is not Chess. I'm not going to jump in joy at the thought that Chess has evolved.In the same way, NUgioh will never be the true Yu-Gi-Oh! (Classic). It's still nugioh.
>>284083471>What's funny is that they only started mass printing this garbage only after Takahashi died.that's complete bullshit, and you're huge prick for trying to use his death as artifice for your agenda. waifushit like Sky Striker, Dragonmaid, Exosisters, Tearlaments and Labrynth were all printed before his death. the Yokai Girl handtraps have existed for a decade, the Charmers have existed for two. DMG was his own creation. the early game was full of "cute girl" cards and you'd be equally buthurt about them had they been printed recently
How can you not like cute girl cards?
>>284083736>they added Slifer to Fortnite",I support this.
>>284084343>How can you not like cute girl cards?There is a thing called oversaturation.The girls are nice but you also need the GAR like warrios such as Dai Grepher, Freed or awesome dragons or cool looking demons/monsters like Dark World or the Archfiends or beastd like Vorse Raider. And like this guy said even the male characters are overdesigned>>284083471in a way that plagues many modern japanese and other east asian franchises.
>>284084343>>284084533like this for example
>>284084343generic modern isekai succubus/demon lord design
>>284084343>>284084576A good comparison modern Yugioh designs are to classical Yugioh designs what modern isekai or other fantasy anime designs are to Lodoss or other old fantasy anime are
>>284084436That's a powerful mon right there.
Of course, the Queen of the card game herself.
>>284084343My opinion on them varies between loving them and being misogynistic He-Man woman haters club. It depends on my mood and how horny I am. The same with anime waifus.
>>284084683How would Yugi react if he saw this?
>>284084712Yugi would do an asspull or flat out cheat and play some card compatible with DMG to counter.
Since duel monsters are spirits in the anime. Does every new card that's made mean they just create a new life out of thin air? What if a duelist has multiple of the same waifu card in their deck? Are they jealous of themselves?
>>284084963Don't most of the series after 5D's take place in other universes?The manga and anime are also different dimensions. The way Duel Spirits are portrayed in the Doma filler arc and the GX anime contradicts the way they are portrayed in the original Yugioh manga. I'm not sure about the GX manga. I've only heard that Chazzs's Duel Spirit there is Light and Darkness Dragon and Jaden's Winged Kuriboh or it was someone else for manga Jaden.
>>284085017GX should have been it's own thing but you know how fans can be.
>>284069559Old-Gi-Oh is still fun to play
>>284085074>GX should have been it's own thingWhat do you mean its own universe? Its own series not related to the card game?
>>284085074The timeline in GX doesn't make much sense. When was Kagemaru principal if the school was just founded 10 years ago?He was a very old man already in GX.How can there be Duel professors already? The game wasn't that old in the original series and it only recently got famous in Japan at the start of the origonal series.
>>284072037There was no wager, Pegasus just stole it with Millenium magic after playing Yugi through a TV
>>284085017The manga starting from GX is basically filler. It's like those "what ifs" in cape but less canon.
>>284085144The manga claim about the videotape were stupid. Something about subliminal messages and that's the reason why they were in synchro with the videotape. I found it to be funny in the abridged series when Prgasus sent them the videotape during the Orichalcos arc and they could communicate through it and Pegasus even react to them despite having no millenium eye anymore.
>>284085143I'm curious of the class schedule. Sure you might have basics like math, science, history, PE, language, but what TCG based classes are there?
How is the dragon meta?
>>284084343I only like this one, and maybe Raye
>>284070897People were trading on the boat so presumably they all brought extra cards
My beautiful wife, since 2006
>>284074121Lord of D sama...
She is cute, but not very bright.
>>284085652You first have to defeat her husband. He loves to destroy the world.
>>284085678Clearly
>>284085740She is a sweetheart of a monster.
>>284069882Not every single waifu needs to be naked, exposed or trashy
>>284075444man what the fuck
>>284085983
>>284068843hey, it's modern yugioh, if you're gonna sit there and watch your opponent go through 20 minute long combos, might as well make the cards all waifu characters, right? something pretty to look at?
>>284085733They divorced when he got put into the ban list
>>284070583I went through the Duelist Kingdom portion of the Manga, and Yugi's deck showed 35 individual cards out of 40. There was a polymerization of two cards, but I don't know if the 'fused' result is its own actual card that needs to be accounted for.Also, as best as I can figure, the 40-card rule is a maximum. I don't think anything is said about it being a minimum. Not that you generally would try to play less than 40 since you automatically lose once your deck runs out of cards during the game.
>>284085678the subtle knight pantyshot in this is very nice
>>284085740she's a lonely chuuni dork
>>284084191What people really miss was Takahashi being more involved with the designs. The old waifu cards like DMG and the Harpy Ladies had his distinctive design aesthetic that make them standout to this day.
>>284084554Those are some of the better Fate designs though.
>>284085733I love my edgy dork witch
>>284085101I assume he means the latter.
>>284068843>labyrinth -> minotaur -> cowgirl -> big titsMakes sense to me.
>18 years on the ban listDid he deserve it?
>>284074121That makes sense.
>>284086555yeah
>>284073773>brownRed Eyes is objectively superior.
>>284075354Is that Force of Will game still around? I remember it being copyright-friendly MtG.
>>284069845Every game I’ve played on Master Duel is either me shitting on an actual child or someone who actually plays Yugioh spending 30 minutes summoning more monsters than I could ever hope to read. I don’t understand how it’s still alive.
>>284075857>mature confident womenThose are a kid's first waifu.
>>284086555Once a decade they should remove Magical Scientist from the ban list just to see what would happen
>>284086555How many 13 year old edgelords weeped when Chaos Emperor Dragon was added to the list?
>>284074121Does he give all of them the D?
>>284083160Part of that bullshit was that Last Will was a completely different card in it's first OCG printing. It got errata'd 5 months after Exodia released but originally it didn't care where the monster went the graveyard from either and it wasn't once per turn.
>>284086555On it's own this card wasn't even that good. The real problem was CED hand wiping you and the entire field.
>>284058296You may have gotten rid of exodia but I still have my trusty Darkly Big Rabbi!
>>284087030I had so many knock off cards when I was young and poor. It's a shame there's no database for them like real cards, I'd love to go through them and read their nonsense descriptions. I remember having a fake Great Maju Garzett that I held dear because the art was cool and it could almost maybe perhaps pass as a real card if you squinted.
>>284069559Oh yes, Yugioh is so much more fun with floodgates every turn, hand traps and waifuslop "monster" cards in every relevant meta deck.
>>284058296>fun interaction and control>usually effective against spam/omny negate slop>flip gimmick>easily spammable>diverse cast variating from ninja hotties, muscolar tomboys with cannons, a doggo, some twinks, and kick ass ninja and his bara gilf broWhy aren’t you playing Ninja Deck yet?!
>>284086653Now this dude should stay banned
>>284058296DURAW MONSTO CARDO
>>284083075Yes if you play it properly, but no one does it properly. They cheat it out with funny shit like a Blue Dragon Summoner loop.
>>284088154I have a low IQ so I rarely try out new cards unless I can add them into an existing deck I'm already familiar with.
>>284083968Is a strokeposter
>>284087561Why does anyone care about meta? It was, is, and will always be bullcrap. In every TCG, really. Compfags are cancer.
>>284058296Why didn't he kill that retard?
>>284089111Yeah that's what I always asked myself, I understand it's for the plot and all that but if I was in a constant fight between life and death and some motherfucker threw away my best cards in the ocean I would be going Titanic on his ass real quick.The writers should have came up with something smarter and more intriguing.
>>284086555Love this lil guy. My first secret rare.
>>284086653I'm not even sure what you would do with Scientist these days. Best thing I can think of is two level 5 machines into Cyber Dragon Infinity, but that doesn't seem particularly broken.
>>284089379it's an infinitely versatile supply of 7 link materials, xyz materials, synchro materialsyou can pay LP to quite literally do whatever you want
>>284089444Yeah but you'd need to spend a large part of your Extra Deck on terrible fusions that only exist for a single card. I guess it's searchable via One for One, but still.
Do you guys have a favorite card that's not even very good or memorable but you have a soft spot for it anyway?I like pic related and I dunno why.Hard mode: no waifu shit.
>>284089471even just 2 shit fusions can give you free access to the one XYZ that starts your full combo. the guy can't even be Ash'd. Magical Scientist would be the best started in 99% of modern decks
>>284089487Hitotsu-Me Giant. When the card game first came out I thought this card along with Skull Servant were somehow cute despite being scary monsters on paper. Like maybe they'd cool to have as pets or RPG companions or something idk. This was before any of the Skull Servant memes, but Hitotsu-Me Giant never got any memes as far as I know.
>>284089487this was one of the very few foil cards I had as a kid, always liked it
>>284089487Element Valkyrie my beloved.I have many other favorite monsters too, but I don't think any of them is NOT memorable for a reason or another.
>>284089218Could've just had Pegasus simply ban Exodia.
>>284089487Relinquished and all of the related cards, when I was a kid I got a japanese Relinquished card and I thought it was really cool because I never saw a blue card before.
>>284089608that would've been interesting. Pegasus drops a last-minute banlist that fucks with everyone's decks, so they're forced to come up with different strategies using different cards. no Exodia, no Blue Eyes
>Played for the coom>Stayed for the soulNew support when? /dng/ bullied me for not using superheavies and gears
Have they made any new gameplay changes after Link/Pendulum/Xyz? What's the gimmick in the newest anime?
>>284073683I'm mad to this day
>>284089960no new gimmick has been added since Links. the newest anime seasons are about Rush Duel, which is a different game (see >>284078143)
>>284068873Seems to me like Yugioh did it better. Stay mad, gachafag.
>>284070191>go play Magic or Hearthstone.Thats exactly what I did, and never looked back at Shit gi oh. Best decision ever, I firmly believe people still playing it are just trapped by in a sunken cost fallacy endless loop.
>>284089379You FTK because he's not once per turn
>>284089683I think Pegasus would've still allowed Blue Eyes if only because there's only 3 copies anyway, and to fuck with Kaiba in their duel. No way he'd ever miss a chance to have Kaiba seethe at Blue Eyes Toon Dragon.
>>284089487this bad boy used to be able to steal games back in the day by tributing over a bls or chaos sorc
>>284073683This garbage of an archetype was the beginning of the end for the TCG, LS spawned so much crap they only needed one turn to completely overwhelm their opponent.
>>284089487I liked the whole alchemy theme and also when this was first released being banished (it will always be "removed from play" to me) was a bigger deal, not just a different kind of graveyard.
>>284090172Magic is complete dogshit nowadays. It literally became the fortnite of card games. Nothing is sacred.>>284089379This card reads as "Pay 2000 LP to win the game.", and you can do it 3 times, maybe 4 if you squeeze in any form of life gain.
>>284068843Older waifu cards are superior because they still had influence from kazuki takahashis sharper, angular artstyle. They had a cool edge to them that the newer designs lack because they just take after the dominant 2010s round and soft style. BMG, Silent Magician, Burst Lady and the like are all great and memorable designs, newer waifus blend in with generic fantasy/scifi girls.
>>284090285>fortnite of card gamesElaborate
>>284089578>no waifu shit

>>28409037190% of Magic sets released nowadays are like picrelatedthose are real Magic cards by the way, not deviantart posts
>>284090371They have a Spider-Man collaboration one day and a Final Fantasy collaboration the next. Same as Fortnite, bouncing from collab to collab to stay relevant via nostalgiafagging. At least Yu-Gi-Oh cards are all in anime art style- even if that style shifted to ugu kawaii girls in recent years it's not like they're mixing fucking Batman and Simpsons designs in the same card game.
>>284069559>Are people discussing anime, on /a/?!>Let me seetheKYS faggot
>>284089487For me it was this guy, with his "scary" flavor text kid me thinks was cool.Ironically he has 0 attack points.
>>284090297I don't know if they are that distinct compared to other 90s female fantasy designs but the newer waifus are a lot more generic looking, isekai or gacha looking.
>>284090297>>284090483
>>284090495Prinvess of Tsurugi also appeated in the original Konami game. Leopard Girl looks lile she is heavily inspired by Go Nagai.
>>284090371Magic stopped having a concise and coherent worldbuilding in favor of quick cash grabs.Look at: >>284086062As an example. But it's also Spongebob, Hatsune Miku, Final fantasy, Spiderman, The Walking dead, Star Trek, Marvel, Ghostbusters, Monty Python, Clue (the board game Clue), and that's not even half of it.And they stopped pretending it's just a few cards here and there, and it's now just simply full legal sets to be played in standard. Without to mention that blatant commander bait cards.They stopped caring for its players and have been focusing on the ones that are spending the most: investors. People who buy cases and cases of magic products without opening them. To WotC, this is the best cash cow possible, since it's selling sealed products, and not flooding the secondary market driving the prices of the individual cards down.
>>284090509This card can be used in one of the long lines to an FTK btw
>>284090373>ignored Maha Vailo just above my cardAnd Maha Vailo is much more memorable too. It even got a retrain.
>>284090466I don't think I'd want to run into any kind of tiger in a dark alley, soul or corporeal.
>>284090602What about in a light alley?
>>284089487The thinking man's summoned skull.
>>284090640Only if it was a swords of revealing light alley.
BLACK MAGIC
>>284090551Im not sure, wasnt Maha Vailo possibly male? ITs ambiguous
>>284089487This cool motherfucker
>>284089487Always liked this fella.
It's also really fun seeing how many card designs Kazuki sent in for Konami to use.
>>284061607heh
>>284068843Reifags will deny this, but the cardfu count per expansion set ramped up when Sky Strikers were released and turned out to be a big success. Konami simply latched onto the chance to sell more boxes.
>>284090665I love how in those earlier sets stars meant nothing. Summoned skull is six stars with worse stats than alligator. Then you have cards like this that I don't think would have made sense even when they were made.
These cards
Here's your occasional reminder that Yubel won, and that this is unironically an unambiguously good thing.
>>284070191Instead of fixing the game, Konami capitalized on the inherent disadvantage of going second to sell these bitches for a premium. This is the moment I decided to quit the game for good. Fuck Konami, seriously.
>>284090959makes sense to me. she rules over the end of existence, bro
>>284089487Honestly any card that has odd stats because it's such a weird thing to do.
>>284090764Kanan was one of the first Yugioh waifus. Also from the first Konami card game video game.
>>284091021A weird theory that their duel was a jewish wedding ceremony.
>>284090959>>284091045Yu-Gi-Oh card normal monster text can easily rival the Pokedex for batshit insane descriptions.
>>284090254At least LS were RNG reliant, their gimmick was triggered in the End Phase and Macro Cosmos could easily shut them down. Modern combo decks can make you an entire board with 1-2 cards.
>>284091087... Yes, that IS a weird theory. Fucking what?
>>284089487i always loved this little guy because he's such a bro and comes back and saves me one more time. I always had him in whatever deck I played in highschool.
>>284091070She was also the strongest level 4 beater at the time
>>284089712Waifu cards are for collecting, unless they are op then we carry extra copies.
>>284091136From google AI:The Marriage Contract/Dowry (Ketubah): The cards Spell Chronicle and its related effects are seen as representing the reading of the ketubah, the legal and financial marriage contract that outlines the husband's obligations to his wife.Witnesses: Syrus Truedale and Ojama Yellow are noted as the two unrelated witnesses, a requirement in Jewish law for the marriage to be valid.Placing of the Veil (Badeken): The card Rainbow Veil is interpreted as symbolizing the badeken ceremony, where the groom covers the bride's face with a veil before the main ceremony.Circling the Groom: Yubel's attack animations involving thorns encircling Jaden are linked to the tradition of the bride circling the groom under the chuppah (wedding canopy).Drinking from the Cup of Life: The effect of the Air Hummingbird card is likened to the shared cup of wine over which the seven blessings (Sheva Brachot) are recited at the conclusion of the ceremony.The Seven Blessings: The seven effects of the Rainbow Neos card are seen as representing the Sheva Brachot.Breaking of the Glass: The cracking of the Duel Academia's windows during the duel is considered a parallel to the breaking of a glass at the ceremony's end, which traditionally serves as a reminder of the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem and that joy must be tempered.Private Time (Yichud): The culmination of the duel with Jaden and Yubel becoming united forever through the Super Fusion card and retreating alone is seen as the yichud ceremony, where the couple spends their first moments of private time together after the wedding. That combined with the Jaden's name being Judai makes a bit of sense but I think it is a coincidence.
>>284091160I hate this stupid evil succubus and her giant melons that I eant to suck on and have a nice time with.Stupid sexy demon.
There is a stupid theory that Exodia is the jewish God Yahweh. It is much more likely that Exodia is based on Osiris or Seth and that maybe have been Kaz's intention. But there is an ironic connection betweem Seth and the jewish God because some egyptians interpreted the jewish God as being Seth. I don't think that the people who make the Exodia/Yahweh theory or Kaz even know about this.
>>284091464Maybe? Egypt is next door to Israel so some culture may have found it's way there.
>>284061607My boy ain't taking shit from no one.
If exodia is so powerful how did they manage to seal him?
What kind of fucking name is Zorc? Zock? Zook? Zoak?
>>284091464Definitely can't be Osiris, because Slifer's original name is オシリスの天空竜 / The Sky Dragon of Osiris (I will never forgive KoA for their bullshit localizations)I agree with you that Seth is a distinct possibility.
>>284069221Sky Striker is literally Nanoha with robots.Rei is Nanoha and her rival Roze is Fate.
>>284091389Ah, so Gemini is becoming sentient, and it's a total schizo. That sadly tracks.
>>284090987Ishizu Tear mirrors are peak yugioh in the way only Sky Striker mirrors, Dragon Ruler mirrors and Nekroz mirrors can be.
>>284091670Maybe Kaz got that name from the game.
>>284081550gramps...
>>284091783>IshizuWhat?
>>284091717That makes sense. Raye looks like an average battle harem school girl. That makes sense for an upgraded Nanoha outfit.But they aren't the only yuri archetype. There is also the Labyrinth archetype, the Evil Twins and several others.
Still mad.
>>284091927I love Yugioh Kallen.
>>284086635Exactly my experience. I miss when duels lasted 10-15 rounds and each one lasted a minute or 2
>>284086635>>284092156That's why they invented Rush Duel. I don't understand why it wasn't imported outside of Japan?
>>284084139wtf is this rail?
>>284092275I still can't believe that the kissing mark is really there on the boob. Not so subtle yuri implication.
is OG manga any good?
>>284086625It is, actually. Their latest set is basically Harry Potter with demons.
>>284089487I always thought Tri-Horned Dragon was really cool even though he's just a vanilla that costs the same as Blue Eyes but with worse stats and no support. Even his description says he's a loser! I love him all the same though.
>>284091677Exodia could be just its own thing. A God that our world doesn't know but who existed in the Yugioh universe. I've heard the theory that Obelisk is supposed to be Seth which makes sense. Seto Kaiba was menat as a one-off villain but his name somehow fitted into the egyptian setting because of Set(h). There were also pharaohs called Seti.Seth is the enemy or rival of Osiris. They are both brothers. Priest Seto is the cousin of Atem, cousins are also often called brothers in many other languages.Atem is assoiated with Osiris, Seto could be associated with Seth and there was some kind of Slifer-Obelisk rivalry going on with Kaiba and Yugi. I don't know if it is true but I've heared the theory that priest Seto was supposed to lead a rebellion against Atem with the help of Obelisk in the original manga but that plot point got abondened because of Kaz's health and Shomen Jump wanting to end it soon. This would also fit with this theme.
>>284075648Yujiro hanma?
>>284091857There's a series of cards used by Ishizu that enable a lot of milling and shuffling back to the deck from the grave. They synergize ridiculously well with Tearlament as a playstyle.
>>284094202I never was into Magic. I think I got a booster pack from a card game magazine I used to buy. The land cards were confusing because nothing was written on them. I think i got a full Duel Masters Structure Deck from the same magazine. If it wasn't from it then I don't know how I got it, I don't remember buying Duel Masters card. It was a fire dark type of Structure Deck with the boss monster being both types.I used to love reading card game magazines and buying Yugioh cards.The same magazine or something else also gave me some cards from some mail girls TCG or whatever. I don't know what it was. It reminds me of Yugioh charmers.
>>284086101modern yugioh is ass especially since people always use that one red eyes deck that cancel every trap card or effect or some overpowered shit with 3 monsters with 10000 power each , 200 hours wasted in duel links and duel masters to see powerpoint presentations of the same shit happening over and over again id play again if people actually cared about the game not just winning to win
>>284094494A Baki x Yu-Gi-Oh crossover would be hilarious. I don't know how Yujiro would flex on the Egyptian gods but I'm sure they'd find a way.
>>284089487The first (and only) secret rare I pulled before I stopped collecting cards.
>>284094795Yu-Gi-Oh did at least one crossover but I doubt it will happen again with Kaz's death.
>>284058617Little Kurboh made the series watchable with his great humor and voice work.
>>284094776but at least with Kelbek and intrigue shield you can troll most retards that waste 20 minutes summoning something but it only works half of the time , worth it though
>>284091783dragon rulers were the reason i quit the game over a decade ago. i remember people saying the mirror was real fun but as someone who always played rogue decks that shit was miserable to play against. someone told me modern yugioh is like dragon rulers on steroids and that's what's kept me from picking the game back up despite the nostalgic itch.
>>284094494There's no view of him from behind so we can't confirm the presence of the demon back but it's pretty close.
>>284090483It's pretty distinct. The 90's had its own visual conventions and you definitely wouldn't see shading like this in anime or manga.
>>284094975Is Fiber Jar legal in Master Duel?I love trolling decks.
>>284095043I always thought this card was very strong for some reason. He reminds me of Enel from One Piece for some reason.
>>284095081This card is a good example of how unconventional the old style of artwork was. What the fuck is it even supposed to be, a tree on top of a spaceship?
>>284095081ive never seen this one before but i havent played in two years because of meta-spam and negate spam decks but they like to ban the interesting cards while keeping the new overpowered ones so most likely , ok i just checked they banned it
>>284095145>This card is a good example of how unconventional the old style of artwork was.That's why I loved it so much. I always imagined that most of the cards live on the same planet where weird shit was happening constantly. Different regions had different levels of technology. Some were medieval, others were high tech like the areas where the Elemental Heroes or Kozaki, the Magical Scientist lived.
>>284095159>ive never seen this one beforeFiber Jar is a classic Yugioh card that has been on the banlist since almost as forever. I think it is almost as old as Morphing Jar.
>>284091677The myth of Osiris is about how he gets torn into pieces and has to be put back together.
>>284095226thats probably why, i played yugioh very recently online to give it a try for a few years so that explains why i havent seen it before
The deepest lore.
>>284095112>I always thought this card was very strong for some reason.It's a win-more card. If the effect goes through you are definitely going to win the game but if you're in a position where the effect could go through you were probably going to win anyway. In any other situation it's a dead card in your hand so your deck is worse for including it.
>>284095159The card sin of Fiber Jar is that it recycles itself so you can do it again.
>>284095361what should we names these characters? random three year old on the street "googoogaga?" Yeah lets do that!
>>284095407I wonder if someone could develop a strategy that would make the game last for hours with Fiber Jars even when he duels against competitive modern decks.
>>284095407thats pretty cool ive used feather of the phoenix to recycle things but this seems much more useful especially since you dont have to discard anything
>>284095361Kozaki was involved in this. He was also involved with Inpachom I love how WC 2008 references this lore but Gigobyte becomes Giga Gagagigo there a bit too fast without growing up to be Gagagagigo.
>>284095456Problem is your opponent gets a turn so he will activate 500 cards every time and redo all his combos. Meanwhile you might not even draw Fiber Jar again for a while. Maybe you could brick some deck that banishes cards to do its combos since those don't get shuffled back in?
>>284075366one day DDM will make a comeback, one day...
>>284068843this they should use ai generated pictures of black women screaming the camera like wizards of the coast
I haven't been into yugioh for a long time but I could have swore at one point they had a western artist do a few cards but when I google it konami apparently doesn't release the names of their artists. Am I being mandela'd or is there a gas leak in my house?
>>284084436>HP is equal to cards in hand *100Thanks for forcing handrip to be meta and enjoy getting reset/unfair stamped
>>284095573Get in line buddy, you can have DDM once they release a sequel to Duelist of the Roses.
>>284095628Maybe you're thinking of Pokemon TCG? Those credit the artist name on each individual card.
>>284095081this one isnt last time i checked , because its useless by itself but with equip spells or cards that power down monsters , its a very good troll card for blue eyes and high level monster decks
>>284095605straw manYou can both dislike waifuflation and woke stuff at the same time.
>>284095740isnt banned i meant
>>284095678Pokemon became westernized in a modern MtG kind of sense.
I'll never forgive them for not dubbing the fourth season of GX. And yeah I know>dub>a ghost stories tier dub at thatBut I wanted closure.
>>284095782I wish the 4th season was also 50 episodes and that they fleshed out Asuka's relationship with Judai more.
>knocks you out of the tournamentHeh, nothing personnel kiddo.
Johan is Kaworu
>>284086062gross
>>284095915
>>284095817>banned because players would fight over whether or not conceding is a quick effectbased card
>>284095914it cant be real ive seen transformers and doctor who but i refuse to believe this
>>284086062Isn't Weiß Schwarz doing something similar with anime franchises?
>>284094776>modern yugioh is ass especially since people always use that one red eyes deck that cancel every trap card or effect or some overpowered shitHow the fuck are you get filtered by fucking metalmorph of all fucking things? The deck hard dies to ash blossom by itself. How the fuck did you play master duel for 200 hours and come to the conclusion that THAT deck is the problem?
>>284094975How is any deck that combos for more than 3 minutes not going to just negate your shit or pop it?
>>284086062I know it's not A.I, but it has that A.I slop look.Some weird ultra realistic shit, but with WoW fantasy aesthetics.
>>284095740>Best case you can burn for 2400... I guess?
>>284091464Ive always been so conflicted with these older card. On one hand I like how the uncensored version has the star and its multiple meanings. But ive always liked how the Spellbinding circle looked. Its unique, eye catching and the colors really pop with Exoida. I always really liked the censored Monster Reborn too.
>>284091416Don't fall for her tricks.
>>284095979>Seed victory dragon>I CONSEED I CONSEEDNo you can't you faggot you can only conseed on your turn>Nuh uh>JUDGEEEEThey should have just added a clause were if match cards are in either deck conseeds must be accepted by both players
>>284058296This scene made me seethe when I was a kid. If I was Yugi I'd be wearing that faggot's organs on a necklace.
>>284096215They have gotten in hot water for using AI so I wouldn't be shocked if this was too
>>284089487This was the only semi-rare card I had that I really liked, and even I thought its effect was weak at best. It was today that I learned there's an entire archetype for it, so I can play with even more cool mecha gun dinos.
>>284094750It was this Structure Deck.
>>284096507I liked this one in the DS games.
>>284096794And from those two you get this guy.
>>284096794Its OCG art looks less cool than the TCG one.>>284096882Does it have any usage in the current meta?You can special summon it with other means.
>>284096126its one of the only ones that fucks with the random shit i use that conveniently works for most other decks, its because in pvp people only use like the same 10 decks, any actually skilled player would get rid of it quickly but this is modern online pvp were talking about
>>284096882The japanese art is better in this case.
>>284096240its sounds like ass but it worked a lot more than i thought, again most players online dont even read your card effects so they dont know what to do when they see a new card thats not in a meta deck,
>>284096992Is modern Yugioh just experts inventing new strategies and the rest just copies whatever the experts created in the first play while the experts move on to create newer decks and better strategies?It sounds like it is nowdays mostly copy and paste.
check his pulse, yugi
>>284096946>Does it have any usage in the current meta?I dunno, like I said I only learned there was an archetype for ol' barrel dragon today. I do know that Gatling's effect requires you to destroy as many monsters as you can, so it'll target your monsters too (or itself) if you can't destroy anything on your opponent's side of the field.
>>284069559You either die a fomo-faggot or live long enough to become a complaining oldfag.
>>284096126master duel for 100 and duel links for 100 , but either that or the life points ones that give you like thousand of life points per turn , online duels have like one guy that knows what hes doing and 10 retards with the same deck thats really why i quit both of them
>>284097070its really just copy and paste with the decks promoted by konami for the online games , they give you gems to buy digital packs and they offer prebuilt decks which is what most people use instead of making one themselves
>>284086461She just needs a friend.
>>284097172You evil anons make me start to like the badly designed nuyugioh tiddy waifu cards. Stop doing that!
>>284085678Is the knight a Saber parody?
>>284097156>its really just copy and paste with the decks promoted by konami for the online gamesSounds like the classical asian mindset. Copy, copy, copy until you can do your own thing.
>>284097444 might be a card game issue in general, i feel like ive seen it a lot in other things but online yugioh is definitely one of the biggest offenders
>>284097156>>284097444This is why I could never get into the game. It sucks to not be able to use my own judgement and freely build a deck I like since the strong cards are always matching parts to a single whole and are largely incompatible with one another.
>>284097070it's not so hard to build modern decks, since it's all archetype based these days. as long as you have a basic understanding of how a deck is structured, you can tell which cards are meant to be your starters/extenders that you play at 3 copies; which cards are in the deck just so you can search so you play at 1 copy; etc. and depending on the deck it's easy to tell which generic (non-archetypal) cards you might wanna play, like a deck that clearly focuses on rank-4 monsters will likely want to play some of the best generic rank-4s. also, nowadays most decks are 33-50% non-engine cards (good cards that don't specifically benefit your strategy, but are strong interactions against the opponent) which are common place regardless of the deck you're building"expert" deckbuilding mostly comes from optimizing all those aspects, understanding the meta when it comes to non-engine, and sometimes finding engines that work well together
I'm old, and super out of the loop. Is Chaos still extremely banned? Will people still stab you if you so much as mention Yata-Garasu?
>>284097891Chaos Emperor Dragon was nerfed heavily through errata.
Ash vs Yugi, who wins?
>>284097891If pre nerf EotE still existed it would still be banned. As it is it is unlimited and no I've used the original anymore. It has retrane which see use
>>284097948Apples to oranges. That said yugi
>>284097948Yugi would find a way to cheat in Pokemon battles and get away with it.
>>284097322Sometimes you have to love the evil ones.
>>284097948>>284097972>>284097987What 6 monsters would Yugi choose though?
>>284097987Can it beat Thunder Armor?
>>284091021>>284091087>>284095861nah, we go with the even older mazinger and devilman references that evangelion copied first in the place.judai is kouji/akira/slum kingasuka is miki/sayaka/honey cutieyubel is ryou asuka/baron ashurajohan is ryou asuka via possession
>>284098615Yugi's stupid hair is pointy enough to act like a horn. Pikachu will just aim for it to take him out no matter what kind of tricks he pulls.
>>284098659
>>284067258Special ink and glasses, isnt that what the casinos use so the house always wins?
>>284098506Delphox UhhhhhhhhGolurkCofagrigus if it is Atem
>>284097948Ash can't lose! If he fails now, how will he keep his promise to give Misty courage? He still has some Life Points left! If he gets through Ra's special ability, he can still beat Yugi!
>>284098701Casinos win by law of average. They didn't even have to cheat. They love big winners because they go out and brag and then 10 retards think they can make a buck
Have my boys been usurped as the king of 4 star beatsticks yet?
>>284074873with the monsters he was running he might as well been running right leg in attack pos
>>284099275Chainsaw Insect was printed in 2006 and it's bigger.
What's the most expensive card you own? I have a couple which were bundled with some of the very early games I got as a kid.They're worth a few hundred but only if they're graded and all that shit. Pretty sure mine wouldn't qualify as mint because I probably used them normally like a kid would, no sleeves or whatever.
>>284068843early cards were Takahashi basically trying to have the characters play literally legally distinct MtG, the designs weren't because that was his vision, it's how he interpreted western monster design that was popular here and trying to replicate, but no duplicate it, especially in the first duelhttps://yugipedia.com/wiki/Gallery_of_Yu-Gi-Oh!_(manga)_cards_(color)
>>284068939I'd complain but the shot of her ass wouldn't have been possible otherwise so it's a neccesary evil
>>284099621I have a limited edition Insect Queen that came in the first collectors tin. I don't know what possessed child-me to get that one because I was never interested in insect types and certainly didn't give a fuck about that card. I must have thought limited edition meant something.
>>284099671That Kaiba card is kind of funny.Did they ever actually use the anime characters for cards in the official game?
>manage to accumulate three blue eyes white dragons>even got blue eyes shining dragon from the pack that came with that shitty movie>lose them all somehow >no other cards just those onesI'm still mad. Partly because it was cool to have them but mostly because I got one of those blue eyes from a childhood friend before I moved away.
>>284090495was kind of shocked when I realized how many of the cards I thought were all Takahashi's as a kid were just Konami's original filler cards for the games
>>284099621I have no clue how expensive these are, but I have a Shonen Jump Stratos (with a screwed up foiling on the name, unfortunately), a Ghost Rare Honest (2008), and a more recent Ghost Rare Dark Armed Dragon (2022)it's possible I have some other valuable cards, but I'm not sure. my collection was built with me and my brother buying random stuff throughout the years, and there was a period he bought a lot while I wasn't into the game
>>284099779There's a card called Yu-Jo Friendship that features Yugi and Joey. Interesting card too because it requires a handshake with your opponent. They can decline unless you also have the Unity card in your hand in which case they are forced to shake your hand.Could be an interesting meta really. >force handshake>rub your balls thoroughly before aforementioned handshake >opponent refuses>you win by defaultAlthough knowing the hygiene levels of your standard card game player they probably wouldn't even be fazed.
>>284099779occasionally, there's like 30-40 cards apparently which is something I guess
>>284099671I find it funny how two of the most famous Yugioh cards (Summoned Skull and Blue Eyes) are just MtG rippoffs.
>>284099862>Dark Armed Dragon I'm having flashbacks. DAD being meta was when I tapped out of collecting because each DAD was worth like 300 dollars at the height of their dominance.I don't know what yours would be worth now though.
>>284099671>Skull Servant since day oneThe memes are eternal.
>>284099779The Bandai Game had character cards but the game was terrible and it lacked one of the most important components that were there since the first Duel Monsters manga chapter life points.I think Speed Duels have character cards.
>millennium eye lets you read people's minds>millennium ring lets you be possessed by an evil spiritThat doesn't seem fair.
>>284099987yeah, back then DAD was a literal paywall, a lot of people stopped playing at that time. it's a damn awesome card though, I really like itI looked it up and my copy seems to be around $40. not so bad, but it's definitely a far cry from it's glory daysnowadays the really expensive cards are either the highest rarity of top meta cards, or really unique/vintage stuff like rare promos or first print LoB foils
>>284100080Green haired Kaiba.Some school NPC that has one or two lines.Man, they were just doing whatever the fuck with this card selection.
>>284099779>>284100080The Toei anime seems to have also been for shilling the cards somehow although it predates the Bandai Game.There were only two card games in the manga before Duelist Kingdom, both with Kaiba or three if you count the duel with Pegasus as pre-Duelist Kingdom.Toei created some more duels an invented some new characters for them and evem new cards most of these characters where connected to Kaiba except for the three sisters who played the Hecate cards. Kaiba rescued Yugi from the duel with them because he wanted to be the one who defeats Yugi. This created a plothole because Kaiba revealed there that he also obtained a Blue-Eyes which was only revealed during Death-T in the manga.
>do nothing>win
>>284100255They are based on the Toei characrers. The blue haired girl, that Tristan had a crush on became part of the main caste. She is like a proto-Serenity but Serenity also appeared there. Kaiba had green hair because he has green hair in the Toei anime.
>>284100338Absolute useless with the short amount of turns in modern Yugioh
>>284100366pretty sure it was always useless
>>284100338I want to make a deck that revolves around this card. I want to win all my matches because of this card only.
>spend several painstaking turns trying to get Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV8 on the field>finally manage it>heh the games mine now kid you'd best concede>horus gets btfo by a monster effect with a bigger dickIt's not fair bros, level monsters are a really cool idea.
>>284058296Based WeevilIf only he had done the same to Kaiba's BEWDs
>>284100240The millennium ring gives you control over souls. Bakura used it to split his soul multiple times and he could transfer other people's souls into objects as well.
>>284099917IIRC Yu-Jo Friendship was banned for a while because of hygiene issues until the judges determined that you can wave or "accept the idea of a handshake" in lieu of an actual handshake to remedy this, then it was unbanned.But I'm imagining someone dueling Kaiba who has three copies of Yu-Jo Friendship and Unity in his deck and it exists to stall and use YJF as many times as possible to summon Kaiba's most hated rivals as many times and force him to handshake, over and over and over, until he forfeits in rage.
>>284100338>>284100366>>284100389>>284100445>he lacks critical information
>>284100255>Green haired Kaiba.
>>284099671>troublesome when multiplied
>>284100637Not canon anymore.Go away seaweed head.
What is the official tournament ruling if your opponent kills themselves mid match?
>>284097717I mean, you need to understand modern deckbuilding theory, which is extremely different to the way people built decks in the past and you can see this in how people approach more historic formats more modern than Goat today. Many of the top decks of old, just don't cut it with modern theory anymore. Modern deckbuilding theory was only really developed around the Zoodiac era (only 8 years ago), because Zoodiac was one of the first decks that truly embraced the way people play yugioh today (cramming as many ways as possible to get to the Rat into the deck)
>>284095145>What the fuck is it even supposed to beLaputa
>>284100771probably counts as the player abandoning the match, so a match win for youalthough realistically it might cause the tournament to be postponed or cancelled depending on how traumatic the suicide was
>>284058296Why didn't Exodia rise from the water and sink the ship?
>>284100771Pegasus laughs, and you get a extra helping of Chilean Sea Bass during dinner before the finals.
>>284099965who is mtg bewd/sk
>>284099779
>>284058296I was seriously supposed to believe Joey wouldn't just throw his ass off the boat for doing that.
>>284090514Even standard (the premier tournament format) isn't being played most of the time at stores. Its all casual commander nowadays and for some fucking reason the staple cards are still priced high despite the lack of tournament scene. They're trying really hard to make commander a tournament format, but more often than not it just ends in a disaster because its a free-for-all multiplayer format. If you ever feel like playing Magic you are unironically better off printing the cards.
>>284096405>>284096215Its the Artstation meta look, but I get where you're coming from.
>>284100240The Millennium Pendant/Puzzle grants a wish to whoever completes it. For Yugi, this was "to have friends". It also allows the wielder to manipulate fate to Destiny Draw. The soul of Pharaoh Atem is sealed inside it.The Millennium Eye lets you read other people's minds.The Millennium Ring guides you to whatever you seek, like a compass. The soul of Yami Bakura is sealed within it, which is actually the soul of Zorc Necrophades fused with the soul of Thief King Bakura. Zorc is the creator and master of the Shadow Realm, so banishing his soul there won't stick for long.The Millennium Rod lets you brainwash other people, including control them remotely.The Millennium Scales lets you measure the heart of other people to determine if they're good or evil. It also lets you fuse summoned Duel Monster spirits, reproduced as the Polymerization card.The Millennium Key lets you enter a person's mind to explore their memories, and manipulate it to your will.The Millennium Tauk/Necklace lets you see the future.All Millennium Items, being made from molten gold mixed with the blood and bones of the slaughtered villagers of Kul Elna, are cursed with Zorc's shadow magic and can easily warp their wielders' minds, and enables them to start Shadow Games at will, as well as conditionally manipulate souls. Yami Yugi swore to not do any more Shadow Games after Mind Crushing Kaiba to remove his most evil aspects, and Atem's goal is to defeat Zorc for good to end the threat of the Shadow Games forever.There's also the Pyramid of Light and the Quantum Cube, pseudo-Millennium Items made after the original set. The Pyramid of Light was originally designed to grant Priest Seto power on part with Pharaoh Atem, and so can oppose the Egyptian Gods. The soul of the evil sorcerer Anubis is sealed within it. The Quantum Cube can use shadow magic to transport people to alternate dimensions, and can transform into a Duel Disk/DiaDhank. I have no idea how these two were made.
>>284100926MtG's BEWD is early art of Chromium, early art of Summoned Skill looks like MtG's Lor of the Pit.
>>284101076cool, thanks for the clarification>Zorc is the creator and master of the Shadow RealmI thought the Shadow Realm was made up by 4kids?
>>284101169Yes, but that was based off the dark dimension called the Shadow Realm that Pegasus discovered, where Shadow Games take place. 4kids used it as censorship for a lot of family-unfriendly things, especially where it didn't fit.
>>284066533You could honestly do anything in Duelist Kingdom and Pegasus would probably okay it unless it was against him.
>>284101151Neat
>>284100926>>284101151
>>284076481And he was cheating during those matches by reading his opponent's hands, so Duelist Kingdom was just a cheat-off.
>>284100926>>284101151In Summoned Skull's original manga artwork, this monster is nearly identical to the artwork of the Magic: the Gathering card "Lord of the Pit". "Summoned Skull" was Level 7 in the manga, much like Lord of the Pit's Converted Mana Cost of 7. Its Japanese name, which translates to "Summoned Demon", is similar to the printed type line of "Summon Demon" on "Lord of the Pit".
>>284058296Scalpers woulda crucified this man for wasting so much scratch
>>284083075It's weak to interruption and unreliable and everyone hates to play against it because it's boring and takes forever. But it can work just fine sometimes.
>become the US champion>get publically shat on by Pegasus>decide to get revenge >end up putting a gun to Pegasus' head>unironically about to execute the creator of the most popular game in the world in his own castle in the middle of a tournament>get shat on again and thrown into the sea>the next public appearance he's a mind broken slave>loses his final duel and has a breakdown about ghosts before disappearing foreverIs he the biggest loser in the series?
>>284101376Multiple time regional champion.He would have a posse of worshippers protecting him. Since Duel Monsters is the king of all games in this universe.
>>284085287It's even weirder because there was an alchemy teacher.
>>284085287>what TCG based classes are there?Alchemy, of course.A clear understanding of how to achieve the steps of Nigredo, Albedo and Rubedo is critical to getting good at duel monsters.
>>284086555Yeah. Well, not really all those years, but almost all.>>284086653This nigger is so unfathomably broken that Konami will never touch him short of a complete errata lobotomy. And I don't want to see that happen.
>>284101565But wasn't TCG based off of Egyptian spirit summoning and battles? Shouldn't they have gotten a Archeologist, or something more specialized like a Egyptologist instead?
>>284089487Always liked Sanwitch. Adorable. A lot of people said he was the worst card ever - and Witch was banned at the time - but it always seemed to me having two ridiculous cards as fusion materials had material for something busted.
>>284101695It looks like Jaken from Inuyasha.
>>284101641Hermes Trismegistus was well familiar with ancient Egyptian lore and he has incorporated all of it into his alchemical theories, which are critical to getting good at duel monsters.
>we have the egyptian god cards at home
>>284090514>Hatsune MikuSome of this art looks terrible.
>>284101808western artists, if I had to guess
>>284101723This is why Dartz can play duel monsters despite being from Atlantis btw
>>284101808That Patreon artslop style in the bottom middle.Miku didn't deserve this.
>>284101866According to Dartz Duel Monsters came from their own dimension, which Atlantis accessed through the power of the Orichalcos before Egypt accessed it via Zorc's power. Same source.
>>284101723>>284101866According to Professor Banner alchemy is important in understanding fusions. He praised Jaden as a fusion genius in the japanese version of their duel.
>>284084963you really don't get spiritualist ideas like animism or Shintoism do you?
>>284101808>>284101839Looks like they followed one of those old guide books.
>>284101911But he was just following the summoning rules that were literally written down on the cards he bought?
>>284058296Owned his ass ngl
>>284101945I'm pretty sure in the anime fusion cards are spawned out of thin air when you summon the monster
>>284101932that face that looks like a mix of an acid attack and down syndrome will always have a beauty that new corporate MTG art will never have, she has a beauty beyond her face that shines bright like the sun despite the shadows of iron deficiency that loom over her figure
>>284101475Kieth was a hero.
>>284102224He's Canadian...
>>284099671What's Summoned Skull's name? I always see it printed as just Demon in moon but this has some extra Kanji.
>>284102565デーモンの召喚Dēmon no ShōkanDaemon's Summon
>>284102657appreciated dekirubro
>>284100502I feel your pain, loved running Silent Swordsman and Silent Magician in Tag Force.
>>284101311he wasn't even summoned demon at first, literally just "デーモン"
>>284100502Level monsters feel kind of nerfed since they appear out of thin air in anime but take deck space (not even extra deck) in tcg.
>>284102969see >>284090987
>>284102979Ritual Monsters also seemed like they appeared from thin air. I wonder how different the early TCG would have been if Ritual Monsters and Level Monsters also belonged to the Extra/Fusion Deck?Didn't Chazz summon Armed Dragon Level 6 from his hand in the GX anime?
>>284100651I wish they would heavily Errata some old cards to give them their game effects instead of retrains, take Flame Swordsman out of the fusion type, allow both BLS vanilla and ritual to be run
>>284100080can't believe it took so long for them to get Kaiba's hair right, though the season 0 movie he had it corrected, the fact they went through all of Death T in the show is nuts, were their just no color pages of Kaiba up to that point?
Hope you got all the cards you wished for this year.
>>284101076to have friends and maybe grow a little (which gets granted later after Atem leaves)
Were any of the protagonists in the sequel series good enough to be the king of games or is yugi unbeatable?
>>284103328To be fair to Yugi Duel Monsters wasn't the only game he played. He was also master at Capsule Monsters, Dungeon Dice Monsters and several other games.The other protagonists seem to be only focused on Duel Monsters.
>>284103152Her hips are magic.
>>284103491Not to mention in Zero all the impromptu penalty games they played.
