>>748961935I need a shoop of Solemn Judgement, but with the King.
>>748961935Man, it's crazy how bad early ritual and fusion monsters were. And that on top of them being really hard to bring out because there were no decks built around properly interacting with the mechanics. Genuinely makes you think what the fuck they were thinking back then.
>>748962424It was 90s caveman yugioh. Card rarity was considered a balance mechanic
>>748962232>>748962334Should be>dinnWOAAAAAHHHH
>>>/tg/
>>748962424I'd assume it was to balance the fact they were a special summon. You were able to get an additional body on the board and whittle down your opponent's board so they no longer had enough tributes for a bigger monster.
>>748962886Yeah that was the planBut going -4 to summon a monster that could be taken out by a single fissure was kind of a waste of resources
>>748961935>that japan flagwtf i never noticedand i used to own that card
>>748961476and I'm going to do it a few more times too
Are any of you part of a fandom that has a notoriety for its hygienic shortfalls? Does it make you self-conscious about your own cleanliness?
>>748965805>Are any of you part of a fandomNo
>>748962424Yea they were terrible and later changes/summon types like Syncro greatly improved upon the earlier concepts.Now fusions are a little bit too easy to pull out imo, being almost like purple XYZ but I love ritual decks still, I’m thinking of making a nouvelle deck to load up on my burger bros as well>>748962886Fusions were somewhat better because they came out of the fusion deck, still they were usually just bad cards and not worth it.Early rituals aside from Relinquished were just unusable though even in early Yugioh

>>748972654>Duel LinksNot canon
>>748962424I can only assume their priority was on playground duels and kids playing randomshit.dek for the first year or two.Kinda based in a sense.
>>748962424I think in the very early design of the game they assumed Fusion/Ritual or any special summon is overpowered because then you can Tribute summon over them. But since nobody played tribute monsters they just figured those cards can be good on their own.
>>748962875nope. cant complain about all the trannies shittng up my locals there
>>748961935kino simplicity>>748966825words words words words wordsno wonder nobody plays yugioh anymore
>>748962424It allowed you to summon them from your hand so it was more like an opportunity to get rid of any monsters you couldn't normal summon that turn by special summoning another monster instead. If the ritual monster stats were better it may have been more worth it.Of course, releasing a card with 2500 attack one tribute monster in the set before didn't really help. Summoned Skull was probably too OP to release that early on in the game.>>748972376I love mill decks.

>>748975595>Back then you were supposed to get some packs and use what you have.yeah and you'd rarely get the required components to use summon rituals/fusions out of packs, and even if you did you'd probably not be able draw/hold on to them long enough to pull it off in a duel

>>748962424Yugioh is a fundamentally badly designed game because it started out as a literal MTG parody and just managed to luck out into being popular because it had a popular anime to promote it.
>>748976042True but that's fine. You might be able to trade it with a friend or get it in the future.And not being able to summon it every every duel is irrelevant. It's fun when you manage to do it every other match. There's other things in your deck you're using too.
>>748961476It's funny that Yugi uses a monster like that
>>748961476>mfw my opponent summons a card with a word count higher than the dictionary
>>748969572you were a lame villain, darts
>>748977203READ. IT.
>>748976912And it basically became his ace card.
yugioh as a card game peaked in the 5D's era. you could play a theme like the cool guys in the anime without it being complete horrible outside of the protag's deck, but you also saw tons of staple cards instead of modern yugioh basically being a fighting game with set characters.>but what about synchro solitarethe true degeneracy was from xyz/xexal era
>>748961476Yes?
>>748976472Not really luck when shueisha was pushing it.
i understand why he had multiple effect rewrites over the years, but that doesnt mean he didnt beat the fuck out of a lot of meta decks. they can only stop him for so long. i was fuckin pissed when they killed jars with the ban list.
>>748977441The decision to make those first synchros have generic requirements was honestly the beginning of the end.
>>748978731Wait does this mean you mill the whole deck if you cant get 3 4star monsters out if you returned 3 and one was over 4stars?
>>748977373>>748977203
>>748979973this one isn't even that bad, 1/4 of the card are just summoning restrictions
>>748961476>mfw my opponent uses his pile of cards to make the numbers next to me go biuhlulululululuh bluup
>>748979831Yes, you can discard your whole deck because the effect doesn't draw cards, but then you'll lose the next time you have to draw if you fail to win once you've activated it

>>748962424>what the fuck they were thinking back thenTakahashi was thinking>damn, this is cool
>>748981217Hungry Burger didn't make an appearance until like 4 years after the card was made and it was only in the anime
>>748981217and he was right
>>748981023The ATK and DEF in the anime reference some sort of relevant Japanese folklore.
>>748981023in duel monsters one must be wary of the reaper of the cards
>>748981346I meant about the ritual mechanic in general
>>748969314Impossible. Only a virgin can claim to have never lost anything.

>>748983839And people wonder why they stopped making the anime.
>>748983839kino
>>748983839what exactly did this accomplish
>>748961476>TFW there are low star cards with no effects that are on the banlist just because they combo with support to an insane degree.
>>748983839regardless of if people like these duels, this shit might take way more time than what you used to see even in 5Ds which is probably konami will think twice before making more anime without simplifying the rules or something
>>748983839Just as Kaz intended
>>748965805I don't participate in these retarded events
>>748985026I still long for the day that they animate someone's Mayakashi climb in the anime
>>748983839He drowned? For this???
>>748985026Maybe that'll force them to change something in the actual game for real, a new master rule so duels are also more watchable.
>>748983839is this edited or is this really what the nu-anime is like? I honestly can't tell
>>748985546Vrains is like 10 years old bro
>>748983839Oops...
>>748983839Jesus christ....
>>748985445is there even a single possible rule able to change how this game is played? removing shit like they did with genesys, no pends or links, is something they won't do
>>748983839It's embarrassing how people who know nothing about card games pretend two minutes is long for a turn.
>>748983839DEKI SETTO!INTOZAVRAAAAINSU~
>>748985945pends arent a problemSecond player should draw 6 on opening hand and draw for turn as wellThey need to put restrictions on Links, Links are ruining the game, they enable all this combo slop we see. It's the most banned card type for a reason
I've been thinking recently about how they could even unfuck the endless powercreep of the modern game that Konami is clearly stuck with. Maybe it would be best if they did a reset of the game. Like a new branch of YGO starting from an earlier point in the game that tries to keep the things less consistent so there's more room for variety of play and experimentation.Probably would be before pendulums, maybe earlier. What do you guys think? Where would you branch off if you had the choice and what set of design philosophies would you follow if given the chance at a do-over?
>>748986143They did that. It's called Rush, and it sucks ass.Didn't they also make some new format very recently that uses a point system?
>>748985945limiting summons per turn might be the only way to slow down this without removing content, that could rightfully neuter links in general
>>748986143It's impossibleyugioh needs a reboot
>>748985945The only way to change the way the game is played would be to remove things, or make an addition with a drastic change like making duels played on a 7x6 grid like in the old manga where the positioning of every card could matter, and changing the rules of everything to need to be played on certain fields and shit.Ideally they should just scrap the current game, learn from the inherent design mistakes and reboot the game from scratch.
>>748986354>Ideally they should just scrap the current game, learn from the inherent design mistakes and reboot the game from scratch.>>748986252
>>748986252>They did that. It's called Rush, and it sucks ass.Rush is as much of OCG YuGiOh as the old Game Boy games with schizo rules were
>>748986262What are even the issues with this game? People keep saying that turns take too long and such. If Konami fixed summon spam, what would be the next biggest issue?
>>748986252I never played Rush, but that seems to focus more on changing player restrictions. I think it's the card design that's the main problem.>>748986274>needs a rebootWell that's what I'm saying. But does the baby really need to go out with the bathwater?
>>748986646hand rips, locks, bad hands making it unable to go second and break boards, combo slop taking too long
>>748986397They didn't learn from their mistakes with Rush though, they literally took the same exact game, cut half the field out, and gave you unlimited normal summons so you could dump your whole hand turn 1 anyways.
>>748986646the issue is that most players despite their bitching love summon spam and comboing, they like being the hammer but hate when it's their turn to be the nail
>>748981023>>748981490Once you discover goroawase, so much of Japanese media makes a lot more sense.

>>748986143>>748986274They should have done like the Pokémon TCG and cut off tournament legality every few years. If they did that when GX started then something like Sparkman could have been the Vorse Raider of the meta for a little while until stronger cards got introduced.

>>748983839Hmmm nyo, I think I'll stick with the old shows, thanks.
For me it's pic related
>>748962424I mean think about it, at least for fusions, for a single spell card you could bring out a monster with potentially bigger stats than anything in your main deck, and the constituent monsters could come from your hand meaning that you wouldn't lose any board presence you already had in order to get this big creature. Rituals were much worse, requiring you to tribute from the field, and have both the ritual card and the ritual monster in your hand at the same time.Both of these fell in the face of single tribute high attack monsters like summoned skull, and it wouldn't be really until after contact fusion was a thing that special summons became the main source of monsters entering the field.
>>748983839Playmaker is an awful characterVRAINs should have been all about Ghost Gal & Shepard.
>>748987767Can only have 3 copies of any one card.You'd do better with 3 copies of each Exodia part.

>>748991819>Rituals were much worse, requiring you to tribute from the fieldNot except maybe in specific cases. Rituals were generally easier to bring out (at least in terms of cost) because they were typically also "hand or field", but unlike fusions, they often had generic component requirements, like Black Luster Ritual requiring monsters whose added level was equal to or greater than eight.

>>748997815>No deck has personality of its ownThe cost of playing generic cards
>>748997462Its pretty likely that he came up with the concept behind it considering how much of DSoD hyped it up.Also prior to zexal starting actual production he was pretty much the guy coming up with yugioh ideas(hell the VR focus was one his zexal era ideas).He was also just super involved in it all things considered.>>748997717Or that. Right super critical was rolling two 1s or something. But i'm pretty sure thats the actual logic with zorc, just a sneaking suspicion they didn't remember the actual rules.Either reading works so it doesn't really matter.>>748997750Hey he curbstomps Manjoume once in his opening where he's allowed to be cool.

>>748987528We're far past that at this point actually. What you described was the meta 5 years ago. Now it's cards that look at your hand, rip 2 to 3 from it, and set up 5+ negates on field alone (they drew cards so they probably have handtraps too). The game is beyond salvageable, and will die with millennials if they don't do a drastic overhaul. This isn't the opinion of only yugiboomers anymore, even world champions, and all time competitors at the highest level have been echoing this statement lately.
>>748999446It's not just the voice acting, which can actually be quite good for some characters. The dub just mistranslates important lines and makes shit up all the time instead of being faithful to the story. They've been doing this since Duel Monsters.>THIS MUST BE ONE OF ISHIZU'S HOCUS POCUS MIND TRICKS!

GX had the worst supporting cast out of the only good 3 yugiohs (DM, GX, 5Ds). I mean we had shit like fucking Kaiba and Joey from DM, and Jack and Aki from 5D's, meanwhile GX had ... dino guy? Putting Chazz on the same level as Kaiba and Jack is laughable. GX feels like a one man Jaiden show. Probably why the self insert dubfags like it so much.
>>748999983>says dubfags>uses dubfag names
>>749000038I watched DM and GX in both languages, and 5D's sub only I'm not particularly anal about either name set. Only try hards say Junoichi and Judai, and I know I'm speaking to a dub only fag, so obviously I gotta use names he would understand.

>>749000530>JP Goku>he
>>748999983I mean the issue isn't that GX lacks decent supporting characters they just vanish for most of it.But the "logic" GX wants is Manjoume>Ryo>Edo and the show wants to put Johan there after but that nigger definitely doesn't count. With the prior rival moving on from Judai and sorta just evolving into a decently rare side character.But like Edo is kinda shit and he's the one who stays around the longest in the major character slot.
>>749000532Why?
>>749000390NTA, but JP Goku IS amazing. That granny puts in work.I prefer Sean Smegma's voice for the character, but you'd have to be an absolute fag to not respect the granny.>>749000530>heWay to out yourself, retard.
I think GX goes way too far in itself which makes it way too silly rather than cool. I like some ancient magic bullshit and I can get behind in-universe things like underground dueling or Aster's dad getting killed for Plasma and money, but you start losing me when I'm expected to take things such as but not limited to Jaden making alien contact at face value. And I start rolling my eyes when it turns out Jaden is actually a descendant of some ancient evil tyrant and his fusions change from elemental heroes to EVIL Heroes
>>748995695Unmatched levels of sovl
>>749000687For the last few years Konami has been making some retartedly strong skills for the characters, to the point where people say the game is just "press skill button to win" now.But turns out a lot of those skills require showing a card in your hand to activate, and if your hand is already showing then there's nothing to show and therefore, nothing to activate. So people were using Mind on Air to combat metafags relying solely on skills to win and Konami didn't like that.
>>749000967That's so fucking stupid and explains perfectly how Konami managed to fuck up Cross Duel in just one year.
>>749000284>you are pee pee poo poo man>I also browse xitter btwGo back nigger

>>749003135>Why are metaslop fags always assume this?Would you like to try that again?
>>749003135Because without fail when you press faggots who make posts like that what they want to play, it is always the most uninteractive or degenerate shit imaginable.
XYZ and its degenerate child Links are what really destroyed the game. They were both created to be inherently better than other cards not due to power creep (though they got that too) but also because they could just ignore parts of the rules that every other card type has to follow. In addition to getting generic summoning conditions that require no "extra" cards. (Unlike Fusions and Rituals which need to deal with their respective Spell cards, or Synchro which has to deal with mixing tuners and non-tuners, and Ritual and Synchro additionally having to finagle with levels) XYZ and Links simply have every main deck monster of an archetype have an effect that is just a slight rewording of "Special summon the other material directly from wherever and get out your Rank4/Link2". They have no barrier to actually doing anything like finding their spell card or doing level math. It also led to a huge loss in archetype playstyle variety, because instead of different creative gimmicks (whether tier 3 or tier 0) where main deck monsters actually DID things, every XYZ and Link deck only uses main deck monsters as glorified spell cards that exist solely to serve as materials for the Extra Deck.
>>749003135Even some dumb shit like DM have endboard full of "interactions" or simply floodgate with some horseshit.Play the fucking game.
>>749002273I once went second against someone and the combo went on long enough for me to watch an entire episode of Ninja Slayer.
>>748998247>The only good ritual was relinquishedPaladin of White Dragon
>>748992814what do you want fren
>>749003942Maybe I'll make my Tag Force 1 Blue Eyes deck after all.
>>749003942Also shitty
>>749003942If you have enough cards to summon paladin you have enough cards to just summon Blue eyes. Also this is just a super costly beatstick like any of the vanilla rituals.Relinquished is good because its basically guaranteed removal, and pretty often is going to go off multiple times.
>>749003665Game was always fundamentally and mechanically broken since day 1.Initially the game was "killed" in three stages. First, the game breaking rarity hikes of Envoy of the End and Luster Solider.Then came Gladiator Beasts and Lightswarn which pushed achetype toolkits too high and phased out non archetype decks.Then Blackwings came and pushed the special summon speed of the game too high.The game after that has always lived on in a state broken by those three core concepts.

>>748974210This plus other few discard from beck and extra draws are too strong to deck breaking.
Oh my god she is so attractive
Wanna see a magic trick?
>>748979973the second effect of the pendulum seems incredibly niche and overkill and the card itself for having 5k Attack has no defenses against spells or trap cards or quick spells
>>748962424>Ritual summon Hungry Burger/Javelin Beetle/etc to the field>Send Dark Magician/BEWD/Red Eyes/Summoned Skull/whatever other blowout big monster card you had as cost>Revive with Call of the Haunted (or Monster Reborn or Premat when they were legal)>Get two big beaters on the field in one turn instead of taking multiple turns to summon one while turtlingIt's not as bad as you think, especially because there were built in Ritual searchers.
>>749003135Your options nowadays for decks that can actually win are>cancer forma de handrape>cancer forma de board lock>cancer forma de ten trillion interupts>cancer forma de masturbation into twenty quasars
>>749003665imo Link-1s were the 'why the fuck are you printing this' point, with Zoodiacs as their prototype.
>>749004617No magic.
>>749004673Is just one of those win more cards. Ass code do same shit for virtually every deck.
>>748983839There's nothing wrong with taking time with the turn but the fact that there's no interaction with the other field whatsoever during this time is pathetic, the opponent calls for no trap cards, no spell cards, no quick spells, no monster effects, nothing to stop this board from happening.
>>749004674lollmao even
>>749004203>lightsworn phased out non archetype decksdidn't synchro era have shit like junk doppel? or is that an archetype deck somehow
>>748985945Player going second gets to add 1 card from their deck to their hand at the start of the duel, giving them 6 cards. Maxx "C" and the Fuwas get banned.
>>748996598no one knows because it's slop so no one cares
>>749003135Show us your deck anon, prove them wrong.
>>748983839>all that shit for a single 1800I don't get it.
>>749004810If this had been printed in the actual Arc-V era it would be ok as a mid/lategame 'fuck you' card because chances are the game would actually last long enough for a D/D/D player to have all of that shit in his GY without going out of his way for it.
>>749004810I mean the * is that its a winmore card except for the bloody revival pendulum effect. Meaning instead its a one of combo piece shit like elfnote pull out their ass.>>749004947There's also just bizarre cases; HAT is literally just three good "packages' which is usually like three cards of an archetype each; can you seriously call that an archetype deck? Literally the only combo in HAT is "i hope you like eating a million dicks for trying to MST my trap holes".Stun was good for multiple much later formats than lightsworn and that sure as shit wasn't an "archetype"
>OCG structures get marketed as some kind of mango where everyone plays REAL YGO.>nobody shotgun fuwaroach on draw nor do Interaction the endboard
I fought Mitsurugi recently with traptrix/ and I genuinely cannot fathom how a deck like that can have any counter play I shut down 3 different plays that would let him put his dogshit purple cards on the field and yet somehow, SOMEHOW he still set a whole field, deleted mine and ended it there.
>>748986143I would honestly just create YGO 2 that has mana costs but only for special summoning and quick effects. Setting traps and normal/tribute/ritual summoning monsters is completely free. Slowly reintroduce weaker fan favorite archetypes like Madolche, Blackwings, Burning Abyss, and Duel Terminal archetypes coupled with new archetypes.
>>749005212just ash ritual bro
>>748987457>Not showing lossesCoward
>>748962424On the other hand, general power creep has been beyond ridiculous.
why can’t mtg be good bros I hate modern yugiohHell, ill settle for mtg just not being Fortnite im just so tired
>>749005269I did, he brought it BACK to the field without the effect but that card has so much high attack it didnt matter.
>>7489994932021 meta wasn't that bad. That's 2022 at the earliest, and only because of Spright and Tearlaments. It doesn't become the standard until fuckass Snake Eyes format, and the game is unsalvageable ever since.
>>748965805I dont get it. Why cant these types take a fucking bath. Who enjoys being disgusting?
>>749005125Lot of pends printed later would be insta ban material bro.
>>749005212The counterplay is running a more modern deck that outputs the level of fuckoff required to stop them a few more times while also having the same "can play through three interactions' thing going on.Modern modern decks have been designed with the idea of playing through multiple negations so they can fuck over older decks and also play through "some" hand traps. And then powercrept their endboard to deal with said newer decks.
>>749004203>The years between OG Chaos getting banned and the introduction of XYZ>The games most popular and beloved years.>"Killed" Yugioh.You can talk all you want about Lightsworn being too OP, but it actually had a unique play style that showcased the games best feature, that it's lack of standard "resource cards" meant that decks were differentiated by what they used for a resource or what tradeoff they had for their abilities. Lightsworns gimmick of milling yourself to death or else your cards don't work is peak Yugioh. And the main deck monster besides Judgement Dragon actually contributed to the match rather than just being material for boss monsters. Even shitty decks like Watts had cool unique playstyles and themes that were fun (I personally want them to try Watts "suicide weak monsters into your opponent to weaken them" play style again and make it work). XYZ made it so every main deck monster is only worth what extra deck monster it can bring out. I will admit that Blackwings was a misstep in that it's central play style of swarming the field with "Blackwings summon Blackwings" effects was an issue insomuch as it was copied. The swarming was supposed to be what made Blackwings unique, making other decks able to do it like that missed the entire point. But even OG Blackwings still had main deck monsters that actually did things on the field besides serve as material, and their extra deck wasn't an omni-negate end board but meant to work in tandem with the main deck monsters.
>>748994426Blue Angel would never look at a man who isn't her brother that way
>>749004947Depends on how you define archetype
>>749005470I even updated Traptrix to include Ragnaraika and everything but frankly it just seems impossible to play around Mitsurugi with what I have now.It sucks honestly.
You can tell who's a tourist and who's not by whether they say "negate" or "handrape" as their criticism of the modern game.
is it even possible to make a card game in the current day that can possibly dethrone any of the big 3 (mtg, ygo, pokemon)? it seems like any card game coming out is either fighting for scraps or being carried by the massive IP that it's based on (like gundam and one piece) but the playerbases aren't big enough. kinda reminds me of the current state of fighting games

Zexal did flood the game with a ton of do nothing archetypes though.But generally the good zexal era decks were still basically always the decks doing a bit more; evilswarm and wind ups were kinda exceptions. And pend did generally enforce unique main deck playstyles too.Even shit like burning abyss did actually have stuff going on main deck design wise that impacted how it played.

>>748962424Because you were cheating out the summon mechanics that usually only allowed 1 normal/tribute summon. Once that design principle go down toilet we get clownfests where full boards from 1 card in player's hand happen regularly.
>>749005295MTG's rules engine is infinitely better than YGO's, so from my autistic perspective, that's the game I'm going to be playing. It's amazing how in 2026 card games still fuck up obvious lessons in formatting card text and ability design.

They have several arcs inbetween then and the card game was beginning to be published in that time period.
>>748985945You either reboot it with a much more tame cardpool and never release handtraps beyond kuriboh from then on, or you hard limit special summons to a certain number. Even then you have decks like Ryzeal and Lab which could function fine under a theoretical Nibiru master rule.

>>748988147I could not believe it. You made me look it up!https://youtu.be/beDb6Orfkbo?is=W3ZWSs3yWHvd8gGWAnd its true, fucking world!
>>749006461TOSS was an incredible format. So much diversity in meta decks, and the meta decks weren't so powerful as to box out other, older decks like modern meta decks. Loads of old decks got Link support, and MR5 dropped to make the game even better. You could actually successfully run Burning Abyss due to Cherubini, Qliphort due to Genius, Gren Maju Gizmek, Trickstar, Invoked, Majespecter, Madolche, Mermail, Gouki, (nerfed) SPYRAL, (nerfed) Zoodiac, (nerfed) True Draco, Subterror, Rokket, and so many non-TOSS archetypes.It was peak YGO where the power level was high enough that you could do a lot of fun degenerate shit but not so high that you win the game on turn 1/2.
>>749006641Having the AI discard its entire hand to use this only to slap it with a jammer/solemn/whatever is fucking hilarious.
>>748989848it's over
>>749006569Series 1 dropped in 1999 and Duelist Kingdom started in 1998 while lasting 73 chapters, ending in late 1999. The card game was actually playable near the end of the arc, and that's counting specifically the manga because anime Duelist Kingdom launched in April of 2000.

>>749006896Can you show us on the doll where the traps touched you?
>Just read the car-No, I won't. You're a turtle now faggot
>>749006952>I just like her huge titsreally? wow no way dude! such riveting revelation! please do tell us more!
>>749006872So what you're saying is you can't have played the card game during early DM because it didn't exist.That's why you have shit like Demon's Summon using lightning on the wet ground to electrocute the enemy's monster, or using catapult turtle to launch a monster at the sky castle.
I Normal Summon Aleister the Invoker!

>>749006431Cool. Now show him Ra egg and super poly.
>>749007042I negate Aleister's effect, do NOT search Invocation. You already fucking have it in your hand anyway. It's always the case.

Ohnonono Sky Striker sisters...
>>749007167Is this a card for ants?
>>749007124what were they thinking when they made both anti-kaiju cards at lower stats than literally every kaiju monster?
>>749007036There are several video games that take place in early DM, though. More than any other time period in the game's history. You absolutely could have played during early DM era with physical cards because early DM anime was several years into the card game being printed.
>>749007019>Guy floats into another guy>Other guy gives me more cards>Play those cards>Get four more guys and seven more negateslollmao
>>749006306get with the times grandpa, we are using this now
>>749007241>There are several video games that take place in early DMWe are talking about the actual card game. Jesus christ shut the fuck up about video games.
>>748988147I hope this won't happen to Rata. The fact that he's avatarfagging as that bitch from LWA scares me.
>>749007280Hasn't he always avatarfagged as her
>>749007150I like Metalfoes, Infernoid, Paleozoic, Kozmo, D/D, nu-Monarchs, and nu-ABC.
>>749004617God I just love foolishes that I can make whenever the fuck I want instead of having to hard open them just so fucking much
>>749007276The video games are time capsules that preserve the meta at the time retard. Why do you think people are so excited about Tag Force GX coming out?
>>749007460>The video games are time capsules that preserve the meta at the time retardIts also completely irrelevant to the topic at hand.Which is playing the card game during various stages of the anime.
>>749007460the remake literally has modern cards added to it
>>749007505It's not irrelevant because the video games ARE the card games.
>>748973169Never seen 'emhttps://litter.catbox.moe/d5cpow.png
>>749006427>>749006569>>749007036>>749007276Do you really think "Late DM" era distinguishes the fucking starter deck Yugi Kaiba meta of summoning La Jinn and Summoned Skull or are you that dense to conflate it with the GOAT format chaos meta?Early DM is at the very least everything before Magic Ruler (Vol.1- Vol.7 in the OCG)
>>749007539>the video games ARE the card gamesNo they aren't.
Lab stays winning
>>749007552>Ash on Branded FusionUhhh buddy if they use Walbaz or High Spirits... you better Ash that shit.This isn't 2022 anymore, you don't need to save Ash specifically for Branded Fusion any longer.
>>749007168I'd hope so. Although if someone fucked up and put the wrong name on my grave, they might be able to sue somebody for emotional damages. Damn, anon. Fingers crossed now.
>>749007513Yeah, but most of them are support cards for HERO, 'roids, Arcana Force, Archfiends, and Cyber Dragons. Oh, and Ojama. https://www.tagforceguide.com/articles/tag-force-gx-new-cardsTag Force GX is just a remake of Tag Force 3, so a handful of extra cards to make weaker strategies stronger is fine.
>>749007810>a handful of extra cards to make weaker strategies stronger is fineThat's a slippery slope right there.
>>748988147
>>749007810Looking forward to the improved Hero Beat
>>748983839see shit like this is why I like the OCG structures mangahe usually skips over board building if it's boring or nothing is happening
>>749007280Isn't Rata a psychology major? I think if it was bound to happen it would have happened already
luv rayeluv roze

As a Yu-Gi-Oh protagonist how would you run your deck?Random cards (Yugi)90% Archetype (Jaden, Yuya, Yuma)Archetype/Random Mix (Yusei, Playmaker)
Is this the thread where I get to complain about the fact that Stellarnova Binding isn't searchable?
>>749008629I would 100% run a dual-archetype deck, like Madolche Vernusylph or Burning Abyss Phantom Knights
>>748994575What about when he says Pan though?
Ah, back when effect monsters and trap cards weren't a thing... soul...
>>749008629Archetype plus random support or thematic mix.
>>749008629I would play five different archetypes in my deck but somehow always draw the right cards at the right time to make all my combos work.
>>749008834Oh hey, it's the most readily available nigga that can make a clone of himself
>>749006340I'll accept Duel Masters-style Mana Charge but "you're not guaranteed to curveslop every game" is an important balancing factor in deck design. If you're regularly getting screwed/flooded then it's a deckbuilding skill issue. The opposite side of this is tutorslop games like Pokemon and YGO where winning hands are solitaire and are only beaten by equally broken interaction in the opponent's starting hand, which ends in just as many non-games as land issues.
Lands are gay and lame. End of discussion.
>>749008967Land is a shit mechanic because Land is literally useless outside of enabling the other 2/3rds of your deck.
>>748966825>Joke angry food monster is stronger than Dark Magician.I can't things like that seriously.
>>749009020But Yugioh needs resources to stop the slop
>>749007280I guarantee it'll happen eventually, he seems to be on that nonbinary faggotry
>>748989364>>748988928>new wife divorced himdid this really happen? if so I can see how he got broken
>>749008629Random cards that are in-universe pack filler but somehow work together flawlessly.
>>749005189weren't there two entire bits about the protag dealing with maxx c? the fuck you talking about
>>748995942>The game launched with Dark Hole, Rageki, Fissure, Mirror Force.It didn't.>Dark Hole = 1999-02-04>Raigeki = 1999-03-06>Fissure = 1999-02-04>Mirror Force = 2000-01-27So Mirror Force was released when the game was about a year old.
>>749008629>retarded shitdeck based on a dogshit archetype with random garbage cards splashed in>but i always get every card i need exactly when i need it so i win
>>749009712>saying dark hole when its literally a black hole
>>749009083>fat retarded furry OC absolutely mogs blue eyes white dragon
>>748973445You are correct>t. i was there on those playgrounds, 3000 years ago
>>749009712I meant more NAMarch 8, 2002June 26, 2002September 16, 2002That shit was all back to back
>>749010050>I meant more NANA is shit and irrelevant.
>>749008629I would definitely play like Yusei since protagonist decks sucked ass until he showed up.
>>748988928>TROONCEPTIONHow deep does the rabbit hole go
>>748988147Soon.
>>749010113>atems god card deck sucked ass
>>749010187Ok yeah he made one good deck specifically to beat Yugi so he wouldn't lose the ceremonial duel. Overall his deckbuilding sucked ass and relied on perfect draws.
>>749010241>and relied on perfect drawsDid you even watch the show? It didn't rely on anything except Atem manipulating reality to draw whatever he wanted when he wanted it.
>>749010187That is a factually correct statement, yes
>>749010290So... perfect draws? Are we just arguing semantics for the sake of it on /v/ again? I guess I'm glad we're on the same page here.
>>749010241Skilled Duelists can draw any card they want.
>>749010241I mean if you can draw what you need at will why wouldn't you build a 60-card highlander deck with niche tools to counter things?
>>749010338Or just a 60 pile with a limited Grass is greener, I swear every single one I've ever played opened with it
>>748997750Anybody got the clip where he streaks around campus trying to find Einstein
>>748997462Duel Links is created in the prequel manga to DSoD, Kaiba was trying to use it to fight Atem in the afterlife originally.
>>748988318>the basement in questionFuck my live, dudes living better than me.
>>749007417I question how you can like ABC so much that you can rank a whole format a 9 despite basically half a year being zoo format.In general i question why people particularly like ABC, deck is kinda white bread. Also in reality that is what the takeaway from that chart is; that most games would be ABC; the rogue deck section has mostly bigger outliers than usual than there really being more.Kozmos is also pretty lame to me but i digress.Its also wildly inconsistent logic because if you can just pick and choose the best format from these "eras" then the super low scores are also just you cherrypicking in the opposite direction and vice versa.The implication makes your scores somewhat pointless really. Early Arc V did have formats that more or less line up with the exact same thing you are praising these formats for.
>>748996884He pionered the one thing every other retard on youtube copies nowadays.>Progression SeriesBesides that, he was chill and rational, he got banned from attending official tournaments for telling people to fuck konami and buy singles.All around, respectable dude and a great loss for the community.
>>748962424>Man, it's crazy how bad early ritual and fusion monsters were. And that on top of them being really hard to bring out because there were no decks built around properly interacting with the mechanics. Genuinely makes you think what the fuck they were thinking back then.Fusion and Rituals were bad because the manga decided that they needed polymerization, two extremely specific monsters, or the ritual card while also largely keeping whatever numbers that Takahashi put on the cards. Takahashi wasn't constrained by how impractical it would be to use the cards because he could just write that the characters had them.If the cards were properly balanced Fusion and Ritual monster back then would need to have better stats than Tribute Summons of the same level. But then Hungry Burger would have to be better than Summoned Skull and Zera the Mant would have to be better than Blue Eyes White Dragon which would break the early story/manga/anime which is what was selling the cards.It's not really surprising how slapdash the game was (and still is lmao)
>>748962424I think the craziest thing to me was the fact that Polymerization was really rare, but all of the fusion cards were extremely common. I get that you want to have this iconic card be all nice and sparkly, but I knew absolutely no one that actually had a Polymerization, so we basically just played with house rules.
...they should've done a MR earlier to resolve this
>>749012078Except the only rituals Takahashi made were Relinquished and BLS(and lo and behold one of them is on par with Blue Eyes). And he literally did make a non blue eyes fusion stronger than blue eyes; Valkyrion.Which considering he barely made any fusions should say enough about how he felt about that.
>>749012319Oh almost forgot, masked beast exists too. You know, a card that literally fits the description; a ritual monster with ATK higher than blue eyes.
>>749008629Warrior beatdown with a few mishmash faves like Ancient Gear Golem and Chiron the Mage.
>>749005565playmaker can be her new brother.
>>749012394Albeit by battle city he also casually throws in death guardias who in the manga is literally just a normal ass tribute monster with 3300 ATK and floats on destruction. So anything was allowed to creep blue eyes in the manga.>>749012805His deck isn't even 1% as cool as tindangle so no.
>>749012884tindangle is a math deck though.
>archetype of alien monster (no girls) that comes out of a spatial rift to jumpscare you (banished face-down) is shit>egyptian themed ritual archetype that uses normal monsters as a gimmick and has a delicious chocy cat is a little better off but still shit because of its own lock and need to run multiple bricks etc.Meanwhile Raise Moon is thrivingFuck deck build packs
>>749012078Many of the rituals were first introduced in a video game with the most ass ritual mechanics.
