>Was the world champion
>no one copied his deck card for card
this truly is an unrealistic anime
Getting cards in the yu-gi-oh world is incredibly hard. While you can easily get pathetic monsters with 300-900 attack points, anything higher than that is rather rare, with cards above 2000 being all but impossible to find for sale since only a handful were ever printed.
We're talking about a world where only 4 blue eyes white dragons were ever printed.
>lives in a world where card games are played almost universally
>there is no comprehensive card list online so people stop exclaiming they've never heard of a card every other game
>>46160402
>>Netdecking
>>Not believing in the heart of your cards
Yeah that sounds like a route to a quick loss.
>>46160565
This was the same world that thought those fuckhuge dueling 'arenas' were the absolute cutting edge of technology rather than a waste of money, though.
>>46160402
Well everyone wants to be original.
In the original Anime though. Yugi was Tzeentch incarnate.
>>46160757
they were giant holographic platforms that can work outside in a variety of environments with consistent audio and visual quality
not only that but it can easily interface with with cards that weren't specifically made to interact with it meaning it has a dynamic scanning system an probably a really good AI as it can recreate cards and there effects even though it would not have been programed by the creator as kiaba was surprised
I mean Pegasus could have reprogrammed them to update there data base but that just proves how adaptable the system is
its peaty great technology
>>46161170
>>46160757
This. What you must understand is that duel arenas are like having a CONSTANT stream of revenue similar to a stadium, except you don't need to pay for anything but basic maintainance.
>>46160570
This.
Netdeckers would be at the very bottom of the totem pole. Assuming they could even get their hands on top-tier cards. The setting has cards that literally only one or two people on the planet are running, and many cards that had single print runs of less than 10.
>>46161598
In gx, there was actually a guy who got his hands on Yugis deck...he got trashed, then mocked by the protagonist.
>>46161626
I only just started watching GX, it already seems kinda stupid that people think these characters are uber duellists when they seem to just get lucky draws that win them the game in one turn
also this teacher dick needs to stop being a dick
>>46161170
Then you get to arc v, and they accept completely new mechanics created mid duel, and no one argues it because hey, the system allows it!
>>46160402
It's because his deck is suboptimal as fuck but he gets magical Christmas land draws every game thanks to the heart of the cards.
>>46161674
Having the heart of the Cards means having sick topdecks and living in your own personal magical christmasland. You can't have the Heart of the Cards with someone else's cards.
>>46161681
Didn't Yugi often win because of some bullshit that isn't in the rules?
I dont remember exactly what happened, but Kuriboh created a rainbow bridge out of nowhere that allowed another monster to attack directly and win
>>46161737
It's shadow realm magic, he doesn't have to explain shit.
>>46160402
>World Champion
>Has a deck that's shitty and unfocused even by the standards of Yu Gi Oh at the time.
>Only wins because he has a mind-raping pharoah living in his head that cheats at cards for him and murders his enemies
>Somehow, no one has a problem with this.
YGO anime was seriously fucked up.
Would /tg/ watch a M:TG anime in the same vein as the YGO anime?
>>46161902
no, all the old card games are shit now
>>46161737
nah the rules were just different back then in his world
also card had really weird, oddly specific interactions like catapult turtle can sacrifice a monster to remove 'flying' from a creature
and
if flying fortress loses flying destroy your remaining monster on the field
the rules were an absolute mess and yugi could some how intuit them or just knew them all
Kiaba came alone and standardized them a bit then standardized them a lot when he decided to make a dueling school
>>46161844
That's the exact reason of why YGO is fucking awesome
>>46161737
>Didn't Yugi often win because of some bullshit that isn't in the rules?
In setting, heart of the cards was a euphemism for using magic to stack the deck.
>>46162049
in the fucking first episode he (or his enemy) summoned a five star monster without a sacrifice...
that sounds like a rule break to me
What went wrong?
How the fuck did people know what the cards did when each physical card was 90% art and then barely enough room for atk and def
>>46162169
Sacrifice wasn't in the rules until the second season
>>46162234
Japanese language is more condensed than English.
>>46160402
>no one has the exclusive, magic 1 time cards he has
I guess we don't have magic powers too.
>>46162169
kiba introduced that you need a sacrifice
honestly I don't know why people even bothered with the way they played, joey was right you should have just thrown in the strongest monsters you had especially since life points were like 4000
joey just had really really really shit cards so he couldn't make any headway till yugi built his deck
>>46162554
In the first arc, life points were 2000. Practically the only reason not to run only 3000 ATK monsters only was because they were so damn rare.
I mean, people used monsters without special effects in the anime.
>>46161902
Only if the Planeswalkers are the protagonists, and we shift focus away from the "main five"
>>46161221
>basic maintainance
Which must be really expensive, considering how complex those arenas seem to be.
>>46162618
...you know now that I think about it
there was no rule against having more then three copies of a card why did kiaba rip up the blue eyes instead of just putting it in his deck
>>46161737
>bullshit that isn't in the rules
Catapult Turtle, Dragon Champion, flotation ring, castle falls on your monsters, I win, ur a faget, MINDCRUSH!
>>46162756
To be a dick to Yugi.
>>46160402
Yugi deck was full of singleton and the average guy didn't have Yugi power of top-decking the card it needs to win the game every time.
>>46162756
>there was no rule against having more then three copies of a card
Because that was a rule.
>>46161902
>>46162912
>Twin banned
>Now only Memedrazi all day, every day
T-thanks, Wizards.
>>46160402
You could say the same for MMO animes
>mfw no one's characters are created to look like their favorite show or game and chracters don't have multiple "toons".
>>46162854
no we saw in a later season some one with a deck entirely of exodia pieces and a few spells
well over 3 copies of each part
>>46160402
Yugi only wins because he has a literal superpower to topdeck whichever specific card he needs whenever he needs it.
For people who have to actually randomize their decks, his decks would be pretty crap.
>>46162966
>toons
Kill yourself
>>46162966
>"toons".
>>46162967
That entire deck was made of fake cards and the guy was cheating, and even then I don't think he had more than 3 copies of each piece.
>>46162966
>toons
Don't be that guy
>>46161902
>M:TG
Pfft we gotta go deeper

>>46163051

It could work.
>>46163252
>every single card they have is a different colored draw 2
Well played.
>>46163359
I can see that. Have his duel spirit or whatever be Sliver Queen or something.
>>46163051
oh my god yes. is there more of this?
>>46162735
>Which must be really expensive, considering how complex those arenas seem to be.
I bet KaibaCorp does it FOR FREE because that shit basically fuels the world's cardboard crack addiction which in turn increases duel disc sales.
>>46161674
are you new in general to the yugioh anime?
pretty much every duel ever goes like this:
>player goes first
>sets up somehow
>opponent goes
>has the perfect combo for his deck, effortlessly gets over the player's field
>burns the other person down to 100-800 lifepoints
>player is completely fucked
>topdecks like a champion
>pulls off a combo. likely with a one-time-use only card, getting over the opponent's perfect setup and winning
pretty much the only protag that didn't use plot device cards constantly was yusei.
>>46163252
Isn't the "you pass along the draw and the pile builds up until the first guy who doesn't have a draw 2" thing a houserule?
>>46161737
in season 1, duelist kingdom didn't follow traditional rules, it was far closer to a tabletop game.
in season 2, they started following the rules, so yugi had the power of 'heart of the cards', which was literally explained later as him drawing whatever card he wanted. he also manipulated holes in the rules, which just got sillier as the series went on.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80fbdQBwbO4
>>46163461
>duel spirit
>implying that an MtG show cribbing Yu-Gi-Oh wouldn't be based onCommander
>>46163601
isn't that the same thing?
duel spirits were already ripping off commander.though who the fuck uses sliver queen as their commander? overlord is infinitely superior.
>>46162228
>a BFM that doesn't die to removal
>>46161723
you imply that would stop people from making his deck
he won so humans would copy him so they can win
>>46160402
I always just through that the main cherecter constently moded their deck to fir what they will be fighting due to magical bullshit. My headcannon says that hear of the cards was just a internet page which told you what the best players run and only very few people could get to it.
>>46162228
they released a terrible movie promo.
that card would have been damn goodrelativelyif it just required a blue-eyes.
>>46163463
i was going try to post the other comics, but I'm too retarded on how to combine the rest into a single image. I did find the next best thing though.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMO9U00pZ3k
>>46163575
Well the video isn't that silly in math an infinity can be bigger than an other infinity.
>>46163765
yeah...
heart of the cards was actually part of yugi's strategy when he dueled atem in the finale. he knew that atem would be able to draw whatever the fuck he needed, so he had to plan around that and be strategic.
>>46163828
>Strip Uno
Would it be possible to make a card game where overdramatic draws and monologuing are mechanically useful?
>Yugio manga
>Barely any card games at first
>Yugi just goes around doing psychopathic shit like making him and his opponent take turns with a knife stabbing money off their hands until someone fucks up. Playing table hockey with a puck made of ice on a searing hot iron table, inside the ice puck is a thin vial packed with gun powder. Etc.
>>46163051
>>46163849
well yeah, pretty much every single thing ever done in the anime makes sense strategically...technically.
off the top of my head, there's only a few exceptions to this that were just absolute bullshit:
>yugi getting help from outside sources during his duel with bakura in the pharaoh's mind
>judai using super polymerization to fuse himself and yubel to end their duel
>yusei creating formula synchron, shooting star dragon, and shooting quasar dragon mid-duel
>yuma's shining draws using ZEXAL, which created ZW cards, as well as recontract universe, seen >>46163545 here
>yuya creating pendulum summoning mid-duel, as well as creating odd-eyes rebellion dragon, enlightenment paladin, nirvana high paladin, odd-eyes saber dragon, and his odd-eyes fusions mid-duel
>>46163984
>>46163943
yuya used a super dramatic draw to create a new summon mechanic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkzK70luYuA
>>46163051
Okay but seriously, I'd fucking love an Uno anime
>>46164004
>>46164004
>>46163984
>>46163051
Absolutely 100% of this is gold and win.
There's mangas for every goddamned thing in the universe, and probably some shit that doesn't actually even exist.
We need. No, we REQUIRE, an Uno Manga. And/or anime.
>>46163943
I think somebody tried to make a YGO inspired ruleset for that kind of bullshit. It basically boiled down to a layer of moderated freeform bullshitting added on top of another game. Make a dramatic enough speech about whatever bullshit you're trying to pull off, and the third party running the game (Basically a GM) adjudicates the results.
The problem with this kind of stupid stuff is that you can't make hard rules for it. Well-defined rules is anathema to the entire concept.
>>46164033
>>46164072
>>46163571
probably but anyone who doesn't play by that houserule is a boring idiot
nothing better than everyone managing to lay a plus 2 so that the guy who laid the original has to pick up 8 or whatever
>>46163891
never even got to the end of the first series, heard the pharo gets poped. Is that true? And dose Yugi fuck Teya or what ever her name was?
>>46164072
>>46164098
I'm smiling so hard my face might break.
This is the perfect vehicle for deconstructing the entire cardgame genre.
>>46164156
>I heard the pharaoh gets popped
kinda sorta yeah. he goes into his memories, regains his memories, gets almost fucked over by bakura. yugi beats bakura which lets the pharaoh beat him in his memories. turns out the only way for the pharaoh to pass on is to lose a duel in which he's going all out, against his greatest rival, so yugi duels him, and plays around the heart of the cards to win. pharaoh passes on, good end.
>And dose Yugi fuck Teya or what ever her name was?in the movie coming out soon, which is based on the manga, I believe yugi is going steady with anzu(tea's japanese name)
>>46162756
The 3 limit was placed during Pegasus's arc I believe but Yugi used that Blue Eyes to beat him in their first duel so he ripped it up for it could never be used against him again
>>46164098
Hurry up and upload man I need the thrilling conclusion.
>>46164208
is that in season 0?
because in season 1 kaiba just tears it up so it can't be used against him (somehow hospitalizing grandpa moto in the process)
>>46164161
it really didn't need deconstructing, the genre is pretty obvious. hell, you can watch a series based on a game you have no idea about and still follow what's going on.
>>46164208
> I believe but Yugi used that Blue Eyes to beat him in their first duel so he ripped it up for it could never be used against him again
not....as such. there were only 4 copies ever made. kaiba tried to steal yugi's grandpa's, so yami, being the serial killer he was, shadow dueled him, making the monsters come to life, and while he was winning with it, he made BEWD feel kaiba wasn't its true master and turned on him.
yami then went punishment game and made kaiba believe he was getting tortured and ripped apart by his monsters.
later, once he recovered enough to have conscious thought, kaiba constructed an amusement park of death, forced yami, honda(tristan), and jonouchi(joey) to go through it, while he forced yugi's grandfather into a simulation of the same shadow game using holograms, gave him a heart attack in fear, then ripped up the blue-eyes so that he would be the only one ever who had copies of it.
>>46164202
So the whole bakura thing gets resolved at the very end? God, i woudlent live through it.
>>46164098
We shall give the person who made this lots of money to make a full series of this
>>46164241
>somehow
that was the first time anyone had ever seen the duel machines that created holograms.
grandpa was old, the fear at seeing a giant ogre gave him a heart attack.
>>46164308
turns out bakura was an ancient spirit who was butthurt that the pharaoh's dad murdered a village of bandits and thieves to create the millenium items(which included his family) so once upon a time the young thief bakura went on a killing spree, used his super special spirit monster to try and kill the pharaoh, and the pharaoh had to have his soul sealed in the millenium puzzle to protect him...or something like that.
the pharaoh then goes into his memories and, using the power of friendship and the god cards, stands up to thief bakura. turns out though that current bakura was using the fragment of his soul in the puzzle to manipulate the memories to beat yami, so yugi dueled him in the pharaoh's mind, using a combination of card games and trinkets in the pharaoh's memory in order to beat bakura and find the pharaoh's true name, Atem.
oh, and Shadi was a whole clusterfuck of bullshit.
>>46164309
Seconded
>>46164128
Most of the disagreements I see over whether or not you still have to pick up 2 when you make the next guy pick up 4, or whether you pass the pot along until the last guy who doesn't have any draw-2 or draw-4 cards has to drain the whole pot.

Going into further detail on this: would it be better to keep it pure SoL cardgame shenanigans, or should it blend in elements of mysticism like the Yu-Gi-Oh anime?

Is the Storm player his #1 henchman who's actually looking to betray him?
>>46163975
The only reason YGO turned into the abortion it is today is cause the creator copied/parodied magic in one issue of the manga and that issue turned SUPER popular
>>46164820
Isnt the current YGO meta entirely turn one kill decks?

>>46163975
I liked the story arc in which Kaiba tried to kill them all with a theme park featuring hired assassins, a leatherface-inspired serial killer, guillotines and traps that would electricity them
>>46164922
It's a game of who can get loads of synchro/xyz creatures out first
>>46164820
Creator must be pretty happy with that change though, all that money
>>46162228
iirc when this was released BEUD wasn't in the NA region, which left him essentially unplayed.
Same shit goes with Quasar being illegal to play in the International version because it wasn't printed in EU.
I always thought a commander one would be really cool.
>>46162228

What would Caesar and alexander the great be? Vintage players?
>>46165042
>those numbers
is that an actual card?
>>46165074
Considering my autistic tendency to notice very keen details of what makes something real or fake I'm very inclined to say it's fake
But considering the current state of the game this could easily pass off as as ~$1 UR.
>>46165074
Probably not
This is though

>>46163154
By indicating that your post contained obvious sarcasm, you have unfortunately outed yourself as merely pretending to be retarded while trying to troll us.
>>46165128
Well that's a thing, I guess.
>>46165195
Except that card is shit because the three gods require at least one or two turns of set up, which is too slow in yugioh terms.
Actual competitive yugioh decks shit out their entire engine in 1 turn, to OTK you on the next, or are such heavy control that you can't even fucking sneeze the wrong way without them activating a trap or quick effect.
>>46165213
That sounds like MTG, if they took out everything that was actually good about MTG and just made everything no-limit Legacy.
>>46165268
The biggest problem with Yugioh comes down to the two things that make it different from other card games
1.- There is no summoning delay/sickness/wait
2.- There are no resources. You have one summon a turn, and the others have to be by card effect.
This went to shit because nowadays almost every archetype has at least a tutor or two, several special summon chains, and really strong stun effects to completely counteract any opportunity your opponent would use to actually attack you.
I'm only so salty and eager to tell you because I just remembered how mad this game got me, sorry for that.
>>46165268
If you went with no-limit YGO you could consistently summon Horakhty first turn.
>>46160402
In that anime most cards are one time only, for example there were only 4 blue eyed dragons, now 3, and stuff like that, so no, copying a deck is impossible most of the time due the lack of copies in the market.
>>46165313
>>46165371
Yeesh.
I guess it's a good example of what happens when things got totally off the rails, if nothing else.
Why does anyone play that game, if it's so "insta-gib"?
>>46165420
Back and forths can get pretty intense and you always have to be careful about over extending in case your opponent has something to fuck you over.
Reading the field and seeing your opportunities is pretty fun.
>>46165313
Yeah, I used to play a long time ago and most decks would have at least the same 50% of cards. they could be different archetypes, but so many of the spells and traps were just better than everything else available that they would be used in every deck.
Bringing back memories of when I was the best player in summer camp because of this guy

>>46164922
no.
it's a OTK deck and a deck that says fuck you for trying to OTK...or use your extra deck.
>>46164962
this is completely wrong.
>>46164969
takahashi hasn't been personally involved with yugioh for years and has been trying to move away from it into something else. DSoD is his attempt to get away from it by giving a true end.
>>46165420
because of how much insta-gib there is, it balances out.
you can try and go balls deep while your opponent has a full hand and backrow, but you're going to get fucked and lose. you could try and play conservatively, but your opponent might have outs. it's a huge game of hard reads and strategizing. if you're a MTG player, the different style of speed and power will piss you off, but it's really a completely different game.

Not that I know shit, I'm too old to know what the fuck is going on with this anime.
>>46163975
I'll be honest. I liked the manga a lot better before it became about the card games. It was really cool seeing all the different games Takahashi came up with
>>46165717
Modern anime is just making cards from nothing or from a dueling company that has a contingency plan for everything. Also founded by the main villain.
>>46165717
in arc-v, one of the characters in the current arc made a big speech about how he protects and reuses his boss because of how hard it is for poor people like him to get more than one boss monster.
in GX, the rival getting a bunch of rare cards from the store was a major plot point for one of his duels against hte main hero.
in 5D's, poor people weren't even allowed to have cards.
>>46165723
the season 0 anime/manga was okay. nothing spectacular, but for those who are used to what it became, the novelty was fantastic.

incidentally, the English dub of Duel Masters is the best parody of Yugioh you could ever want. Seriously, its like The Abridged Series, only it had a release schedule, full length episodes, and was more consistently funny.
>>46163975
Or my favorite:
>Roll a d6, highest roll wins
>Bad guy rolls
>Gets a 6
>A mother fucking 6
>That's like 6 pips!
>Yami rolls
>Die breaks in half
>6 and 1 both show
>Rolls 7
>7 on a d6
>Shadowbans that fucker
Yami was an asshole.
>>46165869
nah, you have it backward. highest roll loses. yugi tossed a 6, then the guy, laughing, chucked his die at the table.
>>46165896
oh wait, he chucked it at yugi's face, and yugi broke the die.
>>46165922
>>46165863
This, that show was fuckin hilarious.
I didn't know it was somehow related to mtg, I just thought it was a parody on the current fad of YuGiOh, and other shows marketed for selling card games and the like.

originally the manga was a fairly serious card game manga with MTG. but since Wizards love to cast Lawsuit(tm), they had to change the game. as far as I know, only the English dub was meant to be funny.
oh btw, still loved the 2 GBA games based on Duel Masters.

Too be fair, every guy that got shadow gamed was an asshole. Hell that guy paid someone to beat the shit out of Yugi for an anti-bullying video. Also the guy beat on Joey and that shit don't fly with Yugi
>>46165961
he also had a fair share of straight up murders. immolation, explosions... he made a teachers face molt a layer in class once. unfortunately the one big hole in my original series manga collection is that i only have the first 2 volumes of the pre-card game run.
>>46165994
>Wizards love to cast Lawsuit(tm)
....duel masters is a Wizards property. IIRC, even the japanese dub wasn't that silly. it was exclusively the NA dub that was silly, likely to further differentiate it from the SERIOUS BUSINESS of yugioh around here.though wizards is the reason magic cards in yugioh are now called spell cards.
>>46166047
Wow, wizard's is like, level 50 petty. They have the exclusive beta that raises the skill cap in petty, and gave the only other key to GW.
>>46166047
from what i recall, the game was changed when it was still just a manga, before Wizards had any involvement. they didn't actually take action, but i think jump or whoever was publishing made him change it to prevent any issues.
ironically if it had stayed magic i bet wizards would have loved that shit. having an anime to promote their main game to younger kids instead of trying to sell yet another game in a market that already had magic, yugioh, and pokemon.
>>46166102
I'm almost positive duel masters/kaijudo was always owned by wizards, as the rules, colours, etc are almost identical. the only difference is shields instead of life, and all cards can be land. the game is obviously a watered down version of MTG for kids to get into it young.
>>46165961
nah, after the while it will dissipate, its just a really terrible experience.
Ushio took the punishment in Original Yu-gi-oh (He was the first villain of the serie) and showed up again in 5Ds as a Cop.
So no its not permanent.
>>46166132
some aren't permanent--ushio just saw shit as snakes, and kaiba got trapped in a monster realm, then mind crushed--but other got straight up electrocuted, blown up, set on fire, or stung by deadly scorpions.
basically, if it was a 'punishment game' caused by his puzzle, they lived.
if not, they died.
>>46165128
>>46166126
Except the all cards can be land is objectively superior to the current system in mtg.
Other than that, you're generally correct.
>>46166208
So the manga is basically the story of an egyptian god trapped in the body of a boy going around being a giant dick to people? Sounds fun.
>>46166208
another actual death
>>46166248
>So the manga is basically the story of an egyptian god trapped in the body of a boy going around being a giant dick to people? Sounds fun
Yeah pretty much. But you only get dicked if you dick with him or his friends first
>>46165044
4kids really edited the cards very badly
>>46166248
the original story was that the spirit was a legit dark spirit, hence his name, yami yugi(yami means darkness). yugi's wish on the puzzle was for friends, so when his host was in trouble or his friends were, the dark spirit came out and punished those responsible.in this chapter, he electrocuted an entire gang who were forcing jonouchi to roll with them
>>46166248
The manga was Yugi being a complete loser who had a hot girl pity him and put him in the friendzone. Then Yugi got his ass kicked, and he wished he could have friends, and his wish was granted because he developed a demonic alter-ego that would kill anyone who got between him and friends.
It's basically an emo-kid's fanfiction coming to life.
>>46165044
they had to edit the cards in NA because of broadcasting laws. you're not allowed to sell real products in cartoons, so they had to make them look different from how they look IRL.
the original versions in the anime actually look like they do IRL.
>>46161902
>Protagonist uses 4c Timmy.dec (no black obviously) Akroma is his flagship finisher, he also runs RAkroma and there's a big reveal when he wins with it against someone who casts Nevermore on Akroma.
>Girly love interest uses monoG elves with both lords and a couple of huge beast finishers.
>Quiet nerd plays janky combos but only gets a handful of episodes where they actually get to play.
>Elitist jerk plays Esper control.
>Hotheaded best friend plays mono red aggro.
>First antagonist just a super stuck up Spike. Plays monoblack with Necropotence type shit. Becomes a grudging friend to protagonist after being defeated by him.
>Second antagonist is Slivers. Secret society type shit that's planning on destroying the school/whatever.
>Third antagonist is Eldrazi. Literally being posessed by the spirit of one of the titans. Protagonist learns that he needs to use all 5 colors to win. Runs Unburial Rites as his premiere black card. Saves the world by reanimating Akroma and having it swing in with his friends' favorite cards as well.
>>46166248
Only for the first few volume.
After the 2nd volume the author redesigned Yu-gi as another person instead of just being a judge.
>>46166252
nope, the next page says he got poisoned and sent to the hospital.
Yu-gi-oh is on Jump, its not a magazine that allows random killing.
>>46166397
But you don't need to use black mana to win against eldrazi. Oath showed us that. You just need the four Good colors.
>>46166308
with their own taser, so its unlikely to be lethal.
>>46166398
It never said anything about him leaving said hospital
>>46166466
>Blue
>Good
>>46166540
Jace is the leader of the good guy group because blue is the only color fit to think tactically.
>>46166576
Tactically is literally white.
>>46166576
The 3 smartest things in the setting don't even have blue in their color identity.
>>46166576
hey, red can think pretty tactically.
>>46166602
Bolas, Jin Gitaxis, and Niv Magus are all blue m8.
Urza is dead, but he was blue to the core.
>>46166576
But Jeice is red.
>>46166627
>tactically
https://youtu.be/-LFiZfFyRRs?t=8m7s
>>46166635
none of those are in top 3. Only bolas is debatable.
>>46165717
>>46160534
I know in the latest one cards actually need to be REFINED (a flawed D/D Savent destroyed all of the monsters on its field once it ticked to a level (Normally D/D and D/D/D monsters are immune to the effect)
>>46166702
actually, reiji fucked up with the original kepler and galilei. they both ticked to scale 4 and blew everything up.
their refined versions tick up/down 2 scales a turn, and blow all the d/d that fall above/below those levels.
>>46162618
Yea but you also couldnt attack players directly. Pretty much the only way to do damage to your opponent was by killing monsters in attack mode or through random bullshit.
>>46166749
also, it was because yuya literally invented the mechanic out of nowhere, and reiji was experimenting to replicate the 'true' mechanic to mass produce it for his dimension.
because 'true' mechanics are a thing in arc-v. an imitation Xyz summon is apparently inferior to an Xyz summon from the Xyz dimension, for example.
>>46166635
Smartest things in the MtGverse are all artifacts
>>46166680
Who are your top 3? Genuinely curious.
>>46166680
Niv-Mizzet has been blatantly stated to be among, if not the, smartest creature in the setting. Bolas is also up there.
>>46165073
Caesar is lands.
Alexander is enchantress.
>>46166539
because the episode just end there and its always assumed they lived because its jump.
>>46160402
I tried netdecking Kaiba and he came to my house and ripped up my Blue Eyes.
>>46161902
It'd be too boring and slow for an anime.
>>46163645
Overlord is the tryhard Sliver commander.
Only Her Majesty is a suitable leader for the Hive
>>46162912
Fuck I would read that. Got any more or a link?
>>46166248
Yet the person who created the 'any card can be a land' rule for Duel Masters thinks it was a bad idea since it leads to games playing out the same too often
>>46170890
The increase variance some other way. Don't make the variance "well, am I allowed to play my deck today or not?"
>>46166376
That must be different now because they literally use the toys in power rangers now.>>46166376
>>46171717
>>46166376
Pretty sure they edited it because they couldn't be bothered to translate the text in every single frame but didn't want to leave it Japanese so they just remove the textbox entirely.

His deck is in all regards mediocre: he got by through literal cheating.

The real version of Berserker Soul is so depressingly shitty compared to this one.
>>46172835
Sort of. It's crazy high stakes gambling with similar victories.
>>46172792
Kiaba its just lights. they can't o that
>>46172484
Pretty much. His millenium item's ability was that he could see and control his deck's order so that he essentially always had the exact card he needed in hand
>>46165592
not gonna lie. This was my nigga way back when i ran a Yubel deck.
God that deck made Black Wings and Glad Beast players so salty.
>>46166013
Stop making excuses.
Yugi was worse than the punisher.
>>46160402
There was a fight in duel city where he fought a rare hunter who had a copy of his deck, yugi wins because hes a mystical cheater.
>>46166308
Top half of the image looks like Yugi gives an excellent BJ.
>>46160565
Or even just some sort of rules enforcement so people can't just refuse to tell there opponent what a card does.
>>46174848
Pretty sure Yugi doesn't murder every criminal he sees
>>46162554
Yeah before the game had rules for making you work for big monsters it can't possibly have been auctualy fun.
>>46163359
As long as it uses the old sliver rules rather then the rules on the new slivers
Still use the newer cards just pretend that retarded only affects your own creatures shit never made it past development.
>>46160402
Yugi had a Dark Magician deck, of which he had one copy, and that gay magician in S2 had an altered copy of.
The Kaiser had the only Cyber Dragons in the world. HERO cards were apparently popular since it's mentioned Jaden is more or less a dirty memer/netdecker, though his Neos would be unique since it came from space.
>>46166376
Man fuck censorship
>>46165752
Oh wow.
>>46165752
And I thought Chinese/Korean MMOs were a moneysink
>trying to my new stepbrother how to play YGO

>actually manage to summon a full field of monsters thanks to Pendulums
>he counters with Offerings to the Doomed then tributes Double Coston into Despair from the Dark
>my beatsticks are dead, only weenies are left
>get royally rekt by him
In retrospect, perhaps that Zombie deck was a bit too strong.
>>46175834
Literally all his Neo Spacians are unique, as they're the result of the cards he designed and got sent into space (the Chrysalis Archetype) affected by cosmic radiation to become viable by creating an upgraded version (Neo Spacian archetype), including a card that mixed his favorite archtype to use and the one he created himself (Neos).
Jaden is literally playing with cards of his own design. He's like Chumley or Pegasus.
>>46165752
>Not mentioning that said poor people were essentially a slave lower class that had to build up decks by what cards they could find in the literal SLUM they lived in.
I liked 5ds, it took itself even more seriously than past Yugioh, and managed to make it work. That bit about someone using a duel runner to cross from satellite to New Domino City by ramping the half-finished bridge the Satellite people had made was brilliant.
>>46160402
The MTG video games were pretty good.
>A sudden storm kicks up!
>Card game
>We're trapped in a cell!
>Card game
>Angry mob!
>Card game
>>46176175
Poor people had it rough in 5ds, it was great. Fucking tracking tattoos and detention centers weren't things I had expected to see in a show about childrens card games.
>>46176425
Not just that, they managed to use the detention center as a plot point for a minor arc, while still keeping to the themes of the show.
When the Protag has to play against the Warden in a duel, and he's going to lose by default because he has no deck, he manages to build one out of all the cards that the other inmates had stashed away. It was both emotionally touching and at the same time reminding the viewer how integral card games are to people in this universe, as everyone has that one card they just couldn't abandon. Not to mention the usage of the shock collars evoking similar stuff from the original series and GX.
I may be analyzing this stuff a little, but for a kids show, the writers for Yugioh are on point.
>>46163575
that whole arc with dartz & his biker gang was dumb
the only cool thing about it were the cards
>>46161902
we have a manga though
>>46177358
>Creator stopped making it
>The only fan translator stopped translating it before it was finished
This is true pain.
>>46177389
god damn it that's why we stopped getting more?
>>46177394
Yeah.
If I had any of the skills involved in fan translating, I'd do it myself, but of course, I don't.
I'm pretty sure the creator made 4 or 5 volumes, but we stopped at Volume 2 and haven't gotten anything new since.
It's depressing.
>>46177417
>>46176112
no, pendulums are just really shit pn their own, and the pendulum structure deck doesn't come with an extra deck.
>>46176175
and then sex cults in japan ruined what potential it had and turned yliaster into robots from the future.
>>46177389
>tfw Detective Conan ran so long that the faithfully dedicated DCTP gave up on translating it
>>46176535
yugioh is a surprisingly deep series, with fairly well written characters. Even in GX, judai starts off a happy-go-lucky idiot and by the end, after all the shit he went through (genocidal space light, his yandere psycho sadomasochist demon ex-lover, death itself...), he'd forgotten what it meant to be happy.
>>46161902
>>46162697
There is already a manga starting everyone's favorite planeswalker, Chandra Nalaar.
Sadly it's still unfinished.
>>46166089
yugioh tried to trademark "magic card"
along with "trap card" and "monster card"
>>46177358
Source?
>>46180731
i.... What?
>>46182029
during the airing of 5D's in japan, this cult called Roma Sophia, which was all about finding god through punishing women, and having them dress in latex and shit, started getting media attention.
near the end of the dark signers arc, it was revealed that the voice actress who voiced carly, one of the dark signers and jack's love interest, was part of the cult.
faced with a potential media shitstorm--having a literal cultist voicing a character heavily involved with a super occult group of villains--konami fired carly's VA and quickly rewrote the rest of the series, causing several character threads to be dropped, yusei to become jesus on wheels, completely dropping other villain arcs being developed, changing the origins and motivation of the central villains, and changing the tone of the series.
>>46163575
Was dark magician girl not wearing a skirt or panties in that video?
>>46182093
that is some weird shit

> play a game which determines whether or not you are banished to the shadowrealm

>>46182816
there was no ambiguity about it in the original.
the shadow realm was straight up hell.
Messing around in YgoPro.
Here's my deck.
Tested it out in ygopro.
>>46183662
>dark bribe
>41 cards
>>46182816
the shaow realm scared me more as a kid then like injury
>>46184074
Here's another one I threw together.
>>46176175
The 5D's manga was also metal as fuck, its very first part has Yusei turbo duelling with a skeleton knight on an undead horse.
>>46177417
I just finished it.
I have joined your suffering.
>>46184945
>that everything
>>46165863
The GX dub kind of slipped into that too eventually, from what I hear.
>>46166779
What the fuck is happening?
>>46162974
>For people who have to actually randomize their decks, his decks would be pretty crap.
Back when the cards first released, his deck was the weakest of the starter decks released by a long shot.I know, because I had it.
