It wasn't an erratum. It was just a "no one ever read the rulebook" interpretation of the effect that prompted Mattel to clarify the official rulebook. Wild Draw 4: "This acts just like the wild card except that the next player also has to draw four cards as well as forfeit his/her turn. With this card, you must have no other alternative cards to play that matches the color of the card previously played. If you play this card illegally, you may be challenged by the other player to show your hand to him/her. If guilty, you need to draw 4 cards. If not, the challenger needs to draw 6 cards instead. If turned up at the beginning of play, return this card to the Draw pile, shuffle, and turn up a new one."
Fuck. Now i'm thinking they having names like "Yuno, Doss, Tresh, Qatro" and such but xezal already did that I guess. Imagine they trying the overlay with one material again
@@polishsasquatch4357 Barbie would be like a fusion of magikey and sky striker. a possible normal monster focused deck, showing her in different attires and jobs, letting her fight crime , but also showing her in slice of life shenanigans.
"the XYZ gets a level" hey man this is a more comprehendable than whatever the odd eyes/dark rebellion monster had going on for getting a level on an XYZ
Too bad they weren't as creative as they are now when they created poker knights, I know it's probably just a direct adaptation of the manga or anime cards or something but it would be cool if they had effects based on if you had pairs or straits in hand instead of just being inconsistent tribute fodder
I like the implication that, with UNO being the game's first archetype from back in 1971 but each card only having single/double-digit ATK and DEF values, the standards of 3-to-4-digit values established with the 2000s-era cards and beyond are just another instance of powercreep.
You've outdone yourself, RATA [RANK10YGO]!! The words you put into this Archtype Archive: HEROs video can never be understated for how amazing it is. Truly, the video of all time. Ojama Lime.
It gives me boundless joy that the sparrow family archetype was described as capable of losing to a deck of uno cards, and 4 years later the Uno deck gets a higher score in each category.
Four years ago, Rata's April Fool's video mentioned how the Sparrow Family could get run over by a deck of Uno cards. We finally got the Uno archetype.
This is genius. I would never thought someone would or could translate a card game into another completely different card game, and you did it majestically
@@altosforteaquax5083 amanda o'neil of little witch academia fame. there's like a 2 episode ova you can check out to get an idea of the series but then they got a whole series made by studio trigger and it's a pretty fun series about a girl, Akko, going to witch school and trying to learn magic and getting into all sorts of antics with her friends.
Finally someone talking about the most underrated archetype in the game. If it wasn’t for Volcanic Zushin Winged Dragon of Ra FTK I would’ve taken it to the top at worlds back in 09’. Sure I was only 6 but it would’ve worked out.
I can't believe how Rata did not mention how the Reverse Card's phase shifting makes the Stanby Phase burn from Dark Contracts in D/D's was unironically a valid tech choice in early days of the archetype
There seem to be retrains so to speak on store shelves, but for all I know they could be support for an alternative format that has its own take on the Uno Archetype. If the classic is not doing its magic check out a variant.
A Uno-inspired archetype could unironically be a fun one. Monsters of the elemental attributes with effects when they leave or get added to the hand, "Wild Card" being multi attributed monster able to substitute for any non-light or dark requirement, Spell/Traps all about drawing, shuffling back into the deck or even messing with the phases... Wouldn't be surprised if someone already made that as part of a fanfic or something.
We have evolved from general gantala staring at the rain with trishula in the background, ojama lime floating in space, to a full blown archetype archive of another game. Truly the RCU's lineup of masterpieces continues
Ever since the addition of the "No Mercy" expansion set, it's actually a hilarious mill deck. All the support the archetype got with that set is, pun intended, fucken wild.
i remember way back during that format, some of us couldn't afford/find other yugioh products so we kinda just played 4 player matches drawing from the same deck, made the archetype make a little more sense now that i think about it.
Ah, a childhood classic archetype. Can't wait you to cover Monopoly Deal Archetype in the next video. Damn that "Deal-Breaker" was a powerfull going second tool which was banned.
You forgot to mention their field spell "Uno Jump In", which can really help speed up their playstyle. While it's on the field, if some one Special Summoned a "Uno" monster, a player can Special Summon another one with the same original name as that monster. If it's a mirror, both player benefits, but in non-mirrors, you can pretty much quickly empty your hand of extra copies of the same card at once in a single turn.
Uno cards might be interesting for ghostrick angel's effect. The backrow can help angel gain material and draws, without opponent interaction, or in the UNO mirror, you can change which uno you have summoned to rank up into angel for game.
Interesting tech options include The Winged Dragon of Ra- Sphere Mode, Ash Blossom and Joyous Spring, the Ishizu package, Runicks, and Volcanics in an attempt to survive negates. These saw play briefly when the Virus cards were more common due to helping to out Baronne de Fleur, Spell Canceler and Tetsudo Erat Numen, but quickly were phased out upon the realization that they made the mirror essentially unwinnable. Of particular note is YCS Siberia, where there were multiple rounds of surrenders due to Anti-Spell Fragrance. Similarly, you can tell when someone is at Bronze Rank on Master Duel due to utilizing Ash Blossom on Left Arm Offering in the UNO matchup.
That one scene in the anime where Yuno won against both Dos and Tres at the same time, and Cuatro literally sucked him off afterward, is a masterpiece of cinema.
Classic Rata. He forgot about the turn skip on Uno Wild Draw. I know people used to cheat and stack multiples on top of each other to mill the opponent out of the game. Glad Konami announced an official ruling on that.
I'm glad he discussed the Pot of Greed level uncertainties surrounding Uno Reverse at least. I still don't know whether or not it was given the effect of skipping in the mirror, allowing players to use it with Uno Skip as part of their ftk, or if Uno Reverse merely changes turn-passage from clockwise to counterclockwise in a game played with 3 or more duelists at a time.
@@runningoncylinders3829 did see a boss duel where it did reverse the player order but i think that effect is only for duels like that so don't @ me on that.
Lezzz go! Honestly, I'm really loving these Yugioh adaptations to the UNO cards. I really hope Konami prints something like this, cause this sounds very funny
There's an archetype called Flower Cardian, which plays kinda similar: they have cards that go atop other cards and stuff like that, though it is a bit more like poker for the closest widespread analogue, the direct one being hanafuda, in that they make card combinations for their plays (in their case, make synchros with decent effects). Also if someone plays maxx c on them, they are at the mercy of the luck/skill the cardian player has with their deck on whether they deck out or not.
That whole “they had to write the cards effects in the rule book” thing is kinda hilarious in the context of Yugioh, since back in the day they kinda had the opposite problem. Konami didn’t expect kids to actually read the rule book, so a lot of old cards had to explain basic rules in the card effect.
Okay, hear me out: An archetype where your monsters are in a battle royale. If all the monster in your deck minus 1 are in your graveyard, only monsters of that archetype are in the gy, you have at least one of all monster of the archetype in your deck, and you have only 1 monster your field and it's a monster of the archetype, you win the game.
The fact that he did this all without a single break in character and played it so deadpan makes me wonder what kind of artistic/comedic trailing Rata underwent as a kid
I'm happy to hear that Uno Wild counts as train support, being able to turn into a level 10 earth monster on summon! Rev up those cannons, we're going into SUPER-UNO-CANNON JUGGERNAUT LIBE TURBO
They've gotten a shitton of support in the past years alongside two other Archetypes in "DOS" and an extra deck exclusive archetype called "UNO 99". They also got some spells back in the day which were once per Duel effects and all that. I think we'll see this Archetype come back into meta relevance soon. Can't wait!
Man, playing against UNO decks back in the day was wild. It was almost like they were playing an entirely different game. It's honestly not surprising support dried up almost immediately.
UNO was originally introduced as a more fair Exodia deck with better interactions while allowing the opponent to see it coming (i.e. shouting UNO!) instead of watching the opponent draw a bunch of cards then randomly say they win the game. The ruling that you can only have other UNO cards in your deck was to prevent broken interaction with cards like Card Destruction, but it caused the decks popularity to rapidly plummet after it came out due to the fact that once the ideal decklist was put together, that was it. There was no more theory crafting or changing things until more UNO support was printed, which never was.
Sadly he skipped over the fact that in certain tournaments/households UNO 7 and 0 get special effects where they let you swap your hand with your opponents
With every year, April Fools gets more and more intricate and imaginative. It used to be a holiday I'd groan at, but these days, the jokes actually have so much effort. I mean Sega released a whole ass game for example. It's great
Actually I played a tournament in 1987, and ran uno. The ref ruled that when uno draw two and and uno draw four wild's draw effect causes the opponent to skip their next turn.
Maybe it's my lack of power armor, but even my Dino-DNA brain can notice those four copies of "Number UNO: Wild!" and "Number UNO: Wild! DRAW" in the main deck. Like, c'mon, what is this, a Magic the Gathering deck list?! In any case, I approve.
There are actually more modern versions of Uno that use cards that can switch your hands with an opponent or force them to draw cards as if they couldn't play. This video really makes me want to see Uno themed Kaijus that can only be summoned over a monster of the same Attribute/level
oh wow, rata posted 2 archetype archives within the span of about 2 weeks, does this mean we will finally get back to a year with more than 2 or 3 total?
For some reason, a bunch of people seem to think that your opponent can overlay a draw 2 over your draw 2 and make you draw 4. Mirror match UNO is insane, man.
I'll never forget the look on my opponents face when they accidentally OTK'd themselves, they thought that destroying my hand on their first turn would get them a W, unfortunately for them I top decked Pot of Extravagance, pulled a Uno Blue 0 and an Uno Skip. Shouted Uno as I put down Blue 0 and just smiled as I activated Uno Skip, winning the game.
Thank god for the "Palying with friends and family" format where you can just create infinite chains and stopyour oponent only in condition for making this archetype even more unique.
Given the fact that Konami had actually made an alternate win condition Xyz monster based on other games before (Musical Sumo Dice Game - based on musical chair and sugoroku), I wouldn't be surprise if they actually make Uno archetype a thing in the future.
I remember the horror stories of when this archetype first got an update in YGKB format, there was no clear ruling on "placing cards on top of each other in the same zone" so it was assumed by many at the time that dropping a Cannon Soldier on a board with a 15+ Uno stack on board was game.
The uno draw power exodia deck has potential but in a mirror match bricks and is way to susceptible to a reverse for game. I now understand Uno, my childrens trading card game knowledge EXPANDS INFINITE
