Blue-Eyes - Failed Cards, Archetypes, and Sometimes Mechanics in Yu-Gi-Oh 

Whenever Blue Eyes Jet bounces a card back to the hand, I just imagine the jet grabbing said monster and flying away with it... without said monster's consent.

It’s insane how a deck with THIS much support has only seen real relevance 1 time when it was pushed to counter the meta very directly

Blue-Eyes is always Meta, it's Tier Omega, Beyond 0. the only deck that Auto wins before the duel because you give your opponent 10K to forfeit.

Kaiba: As president of Kaiba Corp, I declare this invalid!

Its crazy to me that Konami didn't just give Blue Eyes, Dark Magician, and Red Eyes the best support in the game to grab all the nostalgic fans back into the game.

Babe wake up, new Duel Logs failed Archetype just dropped! Ive tried so hard to make my Blue Eyes deck semi-competitive, I’ve added Bystials, Assault Synchrons, Baronne, tuners, Dis Pater, Jet Dragons, Rank 8 xyzs. And it’s still trash lmao - but I still love it.

"Konami's not stupid." Konami: Let's not have any cards drawn by the guy who came up with the game to begin with in our game.

brick eyes white dragon

I don't care if Blue-Eyes and Dark Magician are good or not, I will still keep trying to build the best pure versions possible.

Resumen of the video: deck centered around big vanilla monster is bricky and slow.

Ahh the good old brick eyes. Still one of my favs alongside brick magician and red eyes brick dragon.

You forgot to mention that Dragon Master Knight has a retrain in a form of Dragon Magia Master which requires Blue-eyes Ultimate dragon and either a chaos monster or Black luster soldier ritual monster ad materials to get omni negation of 1 monster, spell, and trap negation once per turn each.

Dark Magician, Blue-Eyes, Red-Eyes and God cards, there's literal hundreds of support cards for these archetypes but barely any ways to actually get them on the field, and even less to get benefits for having them in your hand. Konami just can't grasp that impossible-to-summon garnets in your hand are a hindrance, and when you need them, you can't get them out. When they do make support that gets them out, it works way better in some broken deck instead. I wish they made more cards like Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon, which is broken, but needs a Blue-Eyes somewhere. It rewards people using the actual deck and gives people abusing engines a shitload of bricks.

As someone who just built a deck for blue eyes this hurt my soul to see in the suggestions

Pretty well nailed it. Sometimes, just gotta accept that your favorite deck/archetype isn't all that great, and accept you're playing it out of love. Up until this video, I had completely forgotten just how strong Blue-Eyes was in Duel Links. Fond memories of going up against Fur Hire players and OTK'ing them. In my experience, and that of a friend of mine who also played Blue-Eyes, you always wanted to go Second when playing it in Duel Links back then. Almost never wanted to see the coin flip Heads.

As someone who watched the Anime as a kid, complety lost sight of the game and came back over a decade later to Duel Links and Master duel it is crazy how late so much of the support came.

So basically the biggest problem with the deck is that it has no idea what to do, resulting in it being a jack of all trades master of none archetype that's prone to failure more often than not.

Duel Logs, what do I always tell you? If at first you don't succeed, blast them with your Blue Eyes again!

I was thinking of what to write about this deck, but you put it so well in the end that I can safely say that that is the exact reason I've been playing this deck since I got into yugioh. I love it to death and I will never stop using it as my main option for play. Also love the part when you mentioned how after worlds 2016 none of the Blue-eyes cards were hit, which is just another reason why I view playing this deck as an absolute win - no cards it uses at its core will ever be banned 😅

Please make a failed archetype video about Ojama cards

Old Brick-Eyes. You'd think with all that support Konami would make a more focused effort to define a style. At least it won worlds

You know konami really should just carefully remake old half archetypes like blue-eyes from the ground up with a unified gameplan. Rather than trying to patch work support for bad iconic cards.

An idea for failed archetypes should be either Witchcrafters or Magical Musket. Two semi hyped decks that failed because they need ammo to function correctly and brick like crazy. Honorary mention to Magikey.

I will say I truly appreciate the little message at the end, about how the deck doesn't need to be meta to be loved. That's why I play yugioh. I don't play it to be competitive. I play it for fun. I play it to relive all those childhood memories, reliving the epic school yard moments of summong blue eyes with no tribute because we didn't know any better. That's when yugioh is peak to me, when I can just have a good time with friends and sifting through good memories. ❤

Man, people sure are defensive about their DM decks, huh? If it didn’t take numerous tops at highly competitive events, then it probably isn’t “good” strictly in the competitive sense. Blue-eyes was my first deck when coming back to YuGiOh, but calling it anything other than rouge at best is really stretching the truth.

And I'd thought the 2016 win made Blue-Eyes the Pachirisu of Yugioh. Didn't realize the meta was that heavily contorted in their favor as opposed to the deck choice being legitimately innovative or anything.

Other commenters have pointed this out also, but as a former Blue-Eyes player myself, it's something I've been thinking of as well: The biggest problem with decks that revolve around normal monsters is that they are bricks when they are in your hand. You'd almost always rather them be in the deck than in your hand, because if you have an effect that lets you summon one from the hand or deck and you summon it from your deck you go plus in card advantage, but if you summon it from your hand you go minus or break even. I even ran three Trade-In in my Blue-Eyes deck specifically to deal with bricking if I drew one of my Blue-Eyes, but the problem with that is if you're not bricking with Blue-Eyes and you draw Trade-In, you're now bricking with Trade-In! My thought is that if the cards that said "summon a Blue-Eyes White Dragon/Dark Magician/Red-Eyes Black Dragon from your hand or deck" had also let you draw a card if you chose to summon from your hand instead of the deck, so that you wouldn't go minus, these decks would have been much more playable and the iconic monsters would have been much less bricky.

As someone who only plays MD casually and only uses a blue eyes deck, somehow getting into diamond with it was something I was proud of.

So what I'm getting from this video is that the Blue-eyes is a "failed" archetype because the game's R&D has no idea what they're doing.

Honestly I never thought kaiba archetype blue eyes deck of all things would be on the failed cards archetype and mechanics videos

"Blue-Eyes is a failed archetype" Kaiba: So you have chosen death and financial ruin!

Blue-Eyes desperately need more consistency and negation. It has power plays, but that's literally ALL it has.

I think an Ice Barrier video would be interesting since it's big monsters were used in other decks instead of their intented archetype

Honestly, they could make Blue-Eyes way more powerful if they left the nostalgia pander for 1 support wave, Ice Barrier is actually turning menacing from their support, mostly with Lancea, but able to use their stun cards effectively is something I have to give props to

Chaos Max and Alternative Dragon was the best thing to ever happen to this archetype and even then, it drowned in pendulum format

Hey. I just wanted to say that I appreciate watching your video. I made a Blue Eyes deck when I got back to playing Yu-Gi-Oh, and had so much fun building it. And even though I know it is not the best deck and I usually brick with it a lot, I couldn't help but love the hell out of it. I don't care if it is competitive, I just like to bring out my dragon.

I'm surprised there aren't any spells or traps that, while in the graveyard, grant Blue-Eyes/Dark Magician effects and/or allow you to normal summon them without tributing. That would functionally make them less bricky and less useless.

His duel links data is out of date. Blue eyes is currently tier 3 and routinely summons dragon master knight to.3nd games and is running the newly relased bls vanilla to facilitate a new strategy.

just wanna say i almost never play yugioh (i got some precons and played kitchen table w brother almost a year ago) so your sleep videos are perfectly in the line of being able to understand, but just uninteresting enough to fall asleep to. And your voice is sooo soothing to listen to. You have a fantastic business model and i hope to hear from you for a long time!

I think you forgot Assault Wyvern, which can summon B-EWD during Battle Phase when it destroys a monster

Someone mentioned it in a previous video, every competitive game has 10% meta viability and the remaining 90% isn't. Also, anything meta revelant today is irrelevant in possibly less than a year based on new releases, banlists, and strategies.

you know, Blue-Eyes does have some synergy with Zexal's Galaxy-Eyes archetype to a degree, you can use cards like Nebula Dragon to bring out a BEWD, and enable Xyz plays into the Galaxy Eyes boss monsters. kind of a pity that the archetype wasn't very willing to collaborate like that on its own, cause a legal Blue-Eyes Xyz would look great

To be fair, Chaos MAX is still a pretty damn strong boss monster. Protection from targeting is really good as a form of protection, and being protected from destruction effects as well means it's also immune to most non-targeting removal effects that are available to most decks. You'd need a non-targeting non-destruction form of removal, or something that can hit it for more than 4k, where it's attack stands. I'm not saying this latter part is hard, I put the 10k Utopia punch package in all of my decks that can go into Level 4 XYZ plays, but having a 4k beatstick, with how easy it is to bring it out, thanks to all the searchers, and having 2 fairly good ritual spell cards that can work for it (Chaos Form, Advanced Ritual Art) makes it pretty good in my opinion. Also, Abyss dragon usually searches Advanced Ritual Art, not chaos form. Heck, sometimes even fusion spells. Also, wasn't the anime art for Blue-Eyes also drawn by Kazuki Takahashi? You know, the one we got a Royal Rare copy of in Master Duel in a Blue-Eyes themed pack that costed 3k gems? If that could happen, I'm fairly certain we can get Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon in the game as well. Sometime, in the preferably not too distant future.

I will live and die by the blue eyes ive been grinding on duel links and irl to maximize perfect pure blue eyes and its working pretty well. Getting a free special summon with alternative and effect removal with solid plus max turbo or twin burst with abyss dragon just give me enoigh options plus digging with the tuners with the discard spells

Wooow... I almost cry (seriously) with the tragic story of, no surprise for anybody, my favourite monster of all time. I appreciate very much all the detail on it, DuelLogs, cheers!! One doubt... is there any chance that the Alternative Ultimate fusion monster could land on Master Duel? I really think that would be a boost to the deck. Best "Failded cards" video ever, in my book.

Blue Eyes is playable. It is not currently competitive, but it is playable.

While Blue-Eyes isn't meta by any means, I'm in the belief that you should be free to play whatever deck you wanna play, meta or not. I've always loved Blue-Eyes, Dark Magician, Red-Eyes, all sorts of anime decks, my absolute favorite being Galaxy-Eyes, and I've built a powerful Galaxy-Eyes deck and used it against friends and it's so much fun. As of me writing this, I'm even in the works of making Branded, Dogmatika, and will get around to making Sky Strikers, Labrynth and Exosisters. I even occasionally play Shaddolls and Salamangreats. Point being, if you love a deck, whether it is competitive or not, what's stopping you from building the deck and playing it for fun? Also as a video idea for next failed archetypes, how about Vylons? It probably doesn't need explaining why that deck failed, but it'd be an interesting watch

~24 years ago "I Tribute _two_ monsters to summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon from my hand!" "Thanks. I use Fissure to wipe your whole board instead of just killing 1/3rd of your monsters." Today "I have my entire board set-up with Jet, Alternative Ultimate, Spirit Dragon, Chaos MAX, and one Blue-Eyes on the field and one in the GY." "Cool, let me get pretty much the same board off of one card. Or pop Evenly/Zeus to immediately kill, since your hand is basically empty by this point."

Always like your voice, it's really soothing

What is it with a lot of these main character decks not making the cut competitively half the time despite all the support they get? I think HERO is the main exclusion, and even then that’s because multiple anime/manga characters used HERO cards (Rather than how Kaiba pretty much hogs the entire archetype to himself, which should really be illegal when you think about it). Also, I find it ironic how the Blue-Eyes White Dragon was amongst the rarest cards in the anime/manga world, yet it’s one of the most common in real life.

One note about Spirit Dragon to Azure Eyes combo... Azure Eye's giving protection from destruction by Card Effect means it doesn't destroy itself at the End Phase after being summoned by Spirit Dragon's effect, and as you can do the summon on your opponent's turn unless you get hit by a non-targeting banish or it gets destroyed by battle, it then immediately Special Summons a BEWD on your next standby.

This deck needs a new support monster, that is also a lvl 8 dragon with 3000/2500, that can immediately summon itself through a quick effect and then move a Blue-Eyes White Dragon from the deck to the graveyard as its "cost" after successfully summoning itself, so it can summon itself regardless of Ash Blossom and as long as Blue-Eyes White Dragon is in the graveyard, it is uneffected by your opponents card effects for the rest of the turn. Additionally, it needs a regular effect to search any spell or trap mentionning blue eyes from the deck. In short, it needs a combo starter that isn't useless on its own and can be used for XYZ later. Blue eyes has a lot of emphasis on the battle phase, so it needs a card that can get it to said battle phase even if the situation is sticky, it also needs something that isn't bricky on its own, as well as searchable. If you want to make it even better, give it the can not be normal summoned or set limitation, that way it can be used in Drytron, which already works well to support ritual based blue eyes strats.

"Failed" implies that they failed their goal. I think Blue-Eyes and Dark Magician are right where Konami wants them to be; playable enough to get wins at locals, but too qeak to ever truly dominate, forcing any nostalgia-lured players to try something else, and learn other archtypes. These archtypes will always sell, so making them actually top tier could make them too dominant, and other product may not sell as well. Of course, if there's a movie coming out...

Ideas for a suite of “Blue-Eyes” monsters: _Blue-Eyes Destroyer Dragon_ (LIGHT) Level 8 Dragon/Effect _Can be normal summoned/set by using 1 “Blue-Eyes” monster as tribute. Cannot be destroyed. Can attack all of your opponent’s monsters once each. If this card attacks a defense position monster; Inflict piercing battle damage. If a card is destroyed, you can apply 1 of the following effects depending on the destroyed card’s card type (Each effect of “Blue-Eyes Destroyer Dragon” can only be used once per turn)._ Monster: Increase this card’s ATK/DEF and your LP by equal to the total ATK/DEF that destroyed monster had while on the field. Spell: Add 1 Spell/Trap that mentions “Blue-Eyes” in it’s name or effects to your hand from your deck. Trap: Destroy 1 card on the field. ATK/3000 DEF/2500 _Blue-Eyes Light Dragoon_ (LIGHT) Level 8 Spellcaster/Fusion/Effect “Dark Magician” + “Blue-Eyes White Dragon” or 1 Dragon Effect monster _Cannot be destroyed by card effects. Neither player can target this card with card effects. During your Main Phase: You can destroy 1 spell/trap your opponent controls, and if you do, you can set 1 Spell/Trap from your hand, deck or GY. You can use this effect a number of times per turn up to the number of Normal Monsters used as Fusion Material for this card. Once per turn, when a monster(s) is summoned (Quick Effect): You can discard 1 card; negate that summoned monster(s) effects, and if you do, destroy it, and if you do that, this card gains 1000 ATK._ ATK/3000 DEF/2500 _Purple-Eyes Grey Dragon_ (FIRE) Level 8 Pendulum Scales: 9⬅️➡️7 _Your ”Blue-Eyes” and “Red-Eyes” monsters can be normal summoned/set with 1 less tribute, and if you normal or Flip summon a “Blue-Eyes” or “Red-Eyes” monster, you can conduct an additional Normal Summon/Set. Each time a “Blue-Eyes” or “Red-Eyes” monster you control removes a card from the field (By battle or card effect), you can apply 1 of the following effects, and if you do, you can then return this card to your extra deck (face-up or facedown):_ ⚪️Add 1 “Fusion” or “Polymerization” card from your deck to your hand. ⚪️Normal Set 1 Normal or Gemini monster from your hand, deck or GY. Dragon/Fusion/Pendulum/Effect “Blue-Eyes White Dragon” or 1 “Blue-Eyes” monster + “Red-Eyes Black Dragon” or 1 “Red-Eyes” monster. (This card is always also treated as a “Blue-Eyes” and “Red-Eyes” card.) _This card that is not banished facedown is also treated as LIGHT and DARK-attribute. If this card is fusion summoned using the above materials or pendulum summoned: You can add 1 “Blue-Eyes” and/or “Red-Eyes” card from your field, deck or GY to your hand. “Blue-Eyes” and “Red-Eyes” monsters you control Cannot be destroyed, Can attack all of your opponent’s monsters once each, and if they attack a defense position monster; Inflict piercing battle damage. If this card would leave your monster zones, you can place it in your pendulum zone. Once per turn, You can tribute 1 card from your hand or field (Quick Effect): Apply 1 of the following effects:_ ⚪️Special Summon 1 “Blue-Eyes” or “Red-Eyes” monster from your hand or deck. ⚪️Activate 1 Spell/Trap from your hand or deck that mentions “Blue-Eyes” or “Red-Eyes” in its name or effects. ATK/3000 DEF/2500

I would love to play with Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon in Master Duel, but hearing the reason at 17:51 just reminds me how frustrated the creator got with their artwork being changed over the years.

Its not that it has failed, they only put relevant support where it can be playable in the current meta, but they will never make it tier 1 or teir 0

They both bricked at worlds😭

tldr; it doesn't special summon 10 monsters per turn and puts your opponent's whole deck on the banlist, and it also doesn't do your mom

The blue eyes card art at 4:15 is amazing! I would love a copy of that ive never seen it before

After you made the Failed Cards ep for Dark Magician, I was waiting and hopeful that maybe Kaiba might be shown that his go-to more along the lines of belonging in a third rate deck. Happy, I am.

I feel like any deck that won a world championship isnt really qualified for this series, thats more than most decks have ever reached. At this point im waiting for "Sky Striker - Failed Cards and Archetypes"

Failed cards is hard term. Like the Deck functioned and can get Good boards. My best Friend plays it And Its Not that Bad.

Why its a failed archetype it already made championships in the past years.

Actually, BE is Tier 3 in DL right now. We just got one structure deck and support in the last box

Worlds is a meme event anyway because of the merged banlist and ruling issues

I'd like to see them start releasing support that gives the different builds consistency. Like how Chaos Max can use the impcantations but in archtype. Things that fix the bricky-ness if you are building that particular type of blue eyes deck so that you are running less pieces that could end up in your hand for plays you can't even make at that time. I think a new field spell that generates 'Blue eyes' tokens that are treated AS the vanilla for fusions/etc. would do wonders to help lower the vanilla count you'd want from 3 to 1 opening more deck space and less bad in hand cards to begin with. It wouldn't make it meta with just one card but it would help with the feel of the deck.

I still believe that Jet Dragon is the most pushed card for the archetype. Being able to protect all other cards from destruction! Not just monsters, not just spell/trap, not just dragons, but all...on a recursive monster at that. Even DMtDK doesnt go that far, even then it has 1 effect

I think the only way to make Blue-Eyes relevant would be to replace the bricky normal original monster with something that messes with the current metagame at the same time. To that end, introducing: Monster Light Affinity [Dragon/Effect] Level 8 ATK/ 3000 DEF/ 2500 - Blue-Eyes Vigilant White Dragon - (This card is always treated as "Blue-Eyes White Dragon".) When your opponent activates a card in their hand that negates an effect during your turn, Special Summon this card from your hand, and if you do, negate that effect. And yes, that's not once per turn. If you want meta relevance you need something that's BROKEN, not just good.

Hopefuly we'll get a new structure deck that completely revamps it like fire kings... ** Inhales inhuman amounts of copium **

thank you for the YGOTAS reference at the end

Been waiting for this video

I think Blue-Eyes -- and to an extent Dark Magician -- were made rogue/bricky intentionally by Konami. I've played a lot of online duels, and there are quite a *lot* of Blue-Eyes players you will run into, most likely due to nostalgia or they wish to be like Kaiba 😅 Imagine if Blue-Eyes was meta, considering it gets constant support, I think it would definitely bore people from the game 😬

That world championship Victory becomes really lame when you realize Konami basically rigged everything in Blue Eyes favor. Not even poor balance or shitty players crying to avoid a ban for the dominant deck, just straight up rigging.

Always love the failed archetype videos. Anyway you can do one on the evolsaur archetype?

Ideas for a suite of “Blue-Eyes” tie-in retrains for some of Kaiba’s other cards: _Blue-Eyes Swordstalker_ (DARK) Level 6 Warrior/Effect _This card that is face-up on the field or in the GY is also treated as LIGHT-Attribute. If a monster is destroyed by battle, you can special summon this card from your hand or GY. Gains 250 ATK/DEF for every monster in the GY, and can make additional attacks per battle phase equal to the number of face-up “Blue-Eyes” or “Eyes of Blue” monsters you control. Once per turn (Quick Effect), you can send 1 monster from your hand or field to the GY: Increase the ATK/DEF of 1 monster you control by the ATK or DEF of the sent monster._ ATK/2000 DEF/1600 _Mystical Elf With Eyes of Blue_ (LIGHT) Level 4 Pendulum Scales: 0⬅️➡️0 _You can apply each of the following effects of “Mystical Elf With Eyes of Blue” once per turn, during either players turn if you control a Level/Rank/Link 8 or higher “Blue-Eyes” monster:_ ⚪️You can reveal 1 card from your hand or extra deck: While this card is in your pendulum zones, your “Blue-Eyes” and “Eyes of Blue” monsters are unaffected by the effects of cards with the same name as the reveal card’s. ⚪️You can increase your LP by 300 for every card on the field and in both players hands. ⚪️Add 2 cards from your hand to your opponent's hand, then draw 2 cards. Spellcaster/Pendulum/Tuner/Gemini _This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. While this card is a Normal Monster on the field, you can Normal Summon it to have it become an Effect Monster with These effects._ ⚪️Monsters you control gain 2000 DEF, and cannot be destroyed while in defense position. ⚪️If a Level/Rank/Link 8 or higher Dragon or Wyrm control attacks and destroys an opponent’s monster by battle: it can attack again in a row. ⚪️If you gain any amount of LP, you can inflict damage to your opponent, and/or decrease the ATK/DEF of 1 monster they control, by equal to half that amount. ATK/800 DEF/2000

Konami needs to get over themselves and make a Blue Eyes Baby Dragon that is a level 4 Monster that, on summon, searches for any Blue Eyes card from the deck, and if it’s a monster card, special summon it. Also if this card is removed from the field, you either A) Draw 1 Card or B) Special Summon any Blue Eyes monster card from your hand or graveyard, ignoring its summoning conditions. Hard once per turn on both of these effects.

Modern meta decks are small compact engines that can either put multiple turn 1 negates or push for lethal while being able to fit 12-18 hand traps into the deck. Just look at any meta deck, and you will see decks with multiple engines and hand traps being more like pile decks than pure archetypal decks. This is what defines a meta deck; the ability to fit other engines.

Thanks for sharing MASTER i love this dragon and when new cards or deck come I allways have one thought(can it support or play blue eyes😂)

Blue Eyes is my favorite archetype. I used to play it competitively back in 2015-2016. It was never top tier but so much fun. Really wish it could be meta relevant for once

Still, better than most Decks, especially Dark Magician and Elemental Heroes (whose video I'm still looking forward to because Elemental Heroes deserve desperately a 'Failed Cards'). Sure not all its cards were that great (for instance, Solid Dragon or Shining Dragon), but, in DL, I just love playing the Blue-Eyes deck.

Blue-Eyes needs at least 1 archetype specific XYZ and more lvl 4s, just my 1 cent because I lost the other playing blue-eyes 😂

On the note of Burst Stream of Destruction, another good candidate for a Failed Cards video would be "signature move" cards- things like Burst Stream of Destruction and Dark Magic Attack. They usually don't have effects as good as more generic options, and when they require a specific monster on the field to even activate, they become big-time bricks.

One thing I do hope they do is give is a fusion like the new yubel, that gives hope to a lot of old arctypes with bricky normal monsters that have a lot of ways to search them. Like giving blue eyes an enabler monster whos materials are blue eyes and a light monster would be amazing. And specifically part about fusing from hand or field by returning to the deck.

Can't wait to see his reasons on why Dragunity is a failed archetype. Love my bois, but they need some more love and support, in my opinion. Also, it's funny to see the Blue Eyes duelists getting angry at this video and are just missing the point entirely.

Failed? If Winning a world tournament is failing I would love to fail

The only way I could possibly see blue eyes becoming meta is if they added a link card that could use blue eyes monsters in the hand as material similar to how code exporter can bring out code talker easily but on the link card instead. Then following the trend of modern yugioh cards just slap on a bunch of searching and recursion onto it like how snake-eyes work or something.

Brick eyes white dragon may be inconsistent but it’s my childhood inconsistent deck, and I’ll be playing it still (in casual settings)

"But Blue Eyes won Worlds once!" Yeah, and take a look at what the custom banlist they used at Worlds 2016 was and realise why it was a singular card that allowed them to reach the finals. Also watch the actual finals to see the comedy that unfolded. Also before anyone accuses me of being a meta shill, I love the Blue Eyes archetype and still play them to this day in Duel Links, but I ain't gonna let that sentiment delude me.

Bruh I don’t know why that Exodia cut in made me laugh so much. Besides the obvious reason of course.

My favorite archetype of all time, i really enjoy playing it to this day, il never get rid of it. I remember when i did a deck with the maiden with eyes of blue structure deck combined to galaxy eyes photon dragon during the abyss rising era, where mermail was the tier 0 deck and won my best duel of all time against a mermail deck in a 30minutes long duel, amazing times BLUE EYES FOR EVER!

The only reason the 3 NORMAL monsters aren't good anymore is that they only have support cards. Konami hasn't made actual effect monsters to replace them. What effect would you give blue eyes if it got tis treatment?

can you do a vid on the galaxy-eyes cards

Blue eyes is a bricky deck but it manages to win the 2016 WCS though

It really helps that they've made BEWD structure decks available in pretty much every format. Letting anime fans get to learn the game and how combos work. My first DL deck was Blue Eyes. Using Cards of Consonance with Stone of ancients to go +2 and then normal Stone of Ancients, special Alt and Synchro felt really good.

Amazing video, BEWD is my main deck and it always will be! But its true its so hard to make it work, you need to be on the gx era to be kinda good with all support haha

Mr. Logs, you've made all the yugiboomers around the globe angry with this video

Failed so hard it won worlds…

Blue Eyes and Pikachu would make close friends. Pikachu has also received specific support, such as unique forms, and special items. With a Light Ball, for example, Pikachu has absolutely terrifying offenses (saw some use in VGC where it was able to OHKO Primal Kyogre). However, it seldom gets the chance to put it to work, owing to lackluster speed, and nonexistent bulk.

I've been waiting for this one

Idea for a “Saggi the Dark Clown” retrain (because Kaiba kept the OG in his deck LONG after it had soured like milk, both in-universe and in real life): _Clown with Eyes of Blue_ (LIGHT) ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Spellcaster/Flip/Tuner/Effect FLIP: Banish 1 other 1 Flip monster from your hand, field, deck or GY; this card's Flip effect becomes that banished monster’s Flip effect. _”Blue-Eyes” and “Eyes of Blue” monsters you control gain 300 ATK/DEF. If a “Blue-Eyes” or “Eyes of Blue” monster you control is targeted for an opponent’s attack or card effect, you can discard 1 card: Negate that Attack/Effect, then destroy 1 card your opponent controls. If this card is sent to the GY: You can banish this card from your GY; Special Summon 1 card that mentions “Blue-Eyes” or “Clown” in it’s name or effects from your hand or Deck._ ATK/600 DEF/1500
