It explains why he does so well in tournaments. It’s definitely on the level of “what a Japanese person trying to come up with a Southern American sounding name” would write. Just look at Guilty Gear’s “Goldlewis Dickinson” as an example LOL Or Pegasus J. Crawford (Japanese name for Pegasus) or Keith “Bandit Keith” Howard. 100% this man escaped the manga and came straight here to take our prize money.
Yeah kinda surprised. Like, most TD players probably have encountered this situation many times before. But hey, it is what it is. Doug missed the "except in damage step" on multifaker. Similar haha moment
It was more of a misunderstanding of thunder dragon fusion's restriction on his part. In the vid, he even says before he answers that he understands how it could be (and actually is) ruled, so he knew about how Verte's effect becomes the fusion spell's effect as opposed to just activating the spell itself. He just guessed that the restriction from TDF was a blanket OPT that applied to every instance of the effect, regardless of what card applies it, and not just its own effect, which is silly, because Konami could print a card with the exact same effect, but different name, and you obviously wouldn't be locked out of using one over the other in the same turn.
I've learned so much in terms of wording and conditions for cards from this series that I feel like I could nail it if I was given 8 questions from most, if not all archetypes now
Always a great time when you check a channel to see if they've uploaded recently and "11 seconds ago" shows up. I love this series, and I'm really excited for this episode! I'll update my comment later with how many I got right and my thoughts on the video! I'll throw in my prediction, I think Jesse's gonna do a respectable 5+ :D
Well it's a good thing I didn't bet with chat and go for a 7+ haha. Good job from Jesse though! Those were a bunch of tricky questions! I got 6.5/8 (got tripped up in the same places he did, minus the Verte one. I have been made painfully aware of how Verte works) Great video, I love this series! Would love to see some names like MBT, Cimo, and Farfa on (though I hear Cimo is hard to get a hold of haha)! Awesome work, Coder! Also, side note, congratulations on the subathon! I couldn't join in the fun and watch because I just started a new college semester last week but I heard it went great! I just found this channel a couple weeks ago and I'm loving it so far so I hope to watch some live ones in the future!
These ruling videos have given me so much Judge osmosis. At first I couldn’t answer jack and now I’m actually able to come up with reasoning whenever I’m right on rulings
I got matched up with Jesse in game 1 of the Columbus, OH regionals in summer 2019. This man 2-0'd my True King Dinos in like 10 minutes with that insane Chaos Danger Thunder Guardragon deck. And was so nice about it lol. True Yugioh gangster for sure.
Objection Mr Coder, on Chaos Valkyria ruling. [1] Both Sunlight Wolf and Shooting Riser specifically write the location (hand, gy) on their restriction during the resolution of the effect. [2] Chaos Space uses the EXACT SAME wording as Chaos Valkyria. So according to [2] if chaos Valkyria loses the "connection" to the sent monster, so should Chaos space, meaning that you can't verify if it's Light or Dark since it includes "that card" on resolution. Finally according to [1] Valkyria doesn't say something like "that sent monster (armed dragon series used that sentence) but "that card", which happens at resolution so there is no case like Crow VS Chaos Space. I would accept that Chaos Space VS Crow is "defined" during cost (even though a Crow-ed card is different that what was sent at activation) but on Chaos Valkyria there is no mention of the sent card needing to hit the gy so that the restriction may apply. Is there a ruling where the card being restricted having to go to the designated location?
I think the difference here is that, with Chaos Space, it's an activation cost. In that case, the properties of the card paid as cost are "stored" in the state of Chaos Space, and "that card" is actually referring to that stored card. However, with Valkyria, it's actually in the effect itself. Thus, it has no internal state regarding the sent card, and therefore "that card" relies on an external game state, namely, the card in the GY. I could just be talking out of my butt, though, because I'm not experienced with YGO.
Chaos space and valkyria do not have the same text valkyria uses a comma while chaos space is a semicolon For valkyria part A must resolve correctly for part B to apply so if the sent card never hits gy part A fails to resolve so the restriction is not applied Chaos space sends a card to gy for cost. The effect of chaos space never checks the location of the sent card funny enough even if opponent would use smthn like transmigration prophecy chaos space still remembers the attribute sent and resolves
@@mattr791 I believe you need to re read both cards. 1) The same text I'm referring to is "that card" and "that monster". 2) The checking for both cards according to their text happens at resolution. 3) Valkyria has "but" not ",and if you do,". Is "but" equal to that or "also"? I believe the later. About Chaos Space remembering what cost it used I'm perfectly ok with, just like with Levianeer. Still about Valkyria there is nothing that binds the card with the gy, unless a specific ruling exist for these situations. For reference please look at both Salamangreat Sunlight Wolf and Shooting Riser Dragon.
@@babrad perhaps it's because it needs somewhere else to look? In the case of it being an activation cost, the properties of the card being used are remembered, and that's what's used as a comparison. In contrast, the only thing Valkyria remembers is a pointer to the card. However, this pointer's location is tied to the GY because Valkyria's card effect says "send... from your Deck to the GY." Edit: Even if Valkyria's effect end up banishing it, the implicit pointer construction to the top of the GY is not altered by Macro Cosmos.) I'm probably not using proper YGO terminology, since I'm thinking about the game basically as a stateful computer.
Here is my knowledge/thinking: For your question: YES :) If the effect includes the word "Send": "Send" is specifically defined as "an act of moving cards to the GY" (with the exception of moving from Banished to GY, in which case they are "Returned", and never considered "Sent") Chaos Valkyrie won't perform a "You cannot..." check, since it's Optional Effect was not satisfied in the example, while Macro Cosmos is in effect. For your [2] point, the wording is not the exact same. The fact that Chaos Space Sends a card as "cost" is important, because you cannot negate an activation "cost". In the video scenario, The cost is paid: "1 LIGHT or DARK monster is sent to GY", THEN Crow is chained. But the effect is allowed, because cost is already paid, Chaos space doesn't activate in the GY, and Crow doesn't negate activations or effects. (!!HOWEVER... I think this would be different if, say, Macro Cosmos was on the field prior to activating Chaos Space, which will NOT be able to activate at ALL due to being unable to pay its activation cost. Maybe a more technically-minded person would verify that for me?)
1. Follow SEGOC. Thunder dragon duo (mandatory trigger), Titan (optonal trigger) but misses the timming. Then Borrelsword can activate opponent wants to. (Incorrect, confused by trigger and quick effect in response to) 2. Chaos space resolves with the attribute you discarded (Correct) 3. No, both players are responsible to mantain the game state. You look through the deck and don't banish anything (Incorrect, correct?) 4. It doesn't copy restrictions, you can fusion with thunder dragon fusion. (Correct for the wrong reason) 5. You can't activate it. (Incorrect) 6. Wyvern mandatory trigger and Sangan mandatory trigger (any order, it will activate even if they don't resolve), Dragonroar optional trigger, could miss the timming but eveything happens simultanously (Correcto) 7. Any of the cards that have dragon written in their text (all of them excep appallousa) (Incorrect) 8. Both light and dark. (Correct) 4.5/8
@@hivestalker Lol I'm only responding to the people that are saying these are wayyy harder than before. They weren't imo. Some were definitely tough but I would've expected Jesse to get them all or maybe only miss 1-2
I did guess it right, but only because I've watched the entire series and this is the third time coder has used a card effect with a location specific restriction, and therefor if I didn't know it I would actually be a moron.
@@AngelNearDestruction where do you see a location specific restriction on Chaos Valkyria? I hope the other 2 cases are NOT sunlight wolf and Shooting Riser Dragon.
Nah they weren't at all. Only 2 of of them were very obscure/difficult and even then you could figure it out if you have a general judge level knowledge and just read all the cards.
@@justkuro6286 bois yall need to shut up and read what I'm saying. THEY WERE HARDER THAN "EVERYONE ELSES." That is a fact. I personally got all of them right except for the Trishula one. I'm just saying compared to everyone elses they were brutal. Damn.
As a long time thunder player myself, imma use this to challenge myself Edit: 6.5/8 chaos valk and the 2nd half of dark matter got me, gonna have to use that valk ruling to my advantage now :)
That Verte ruling opens a weird question, actually. If card A copies the effect of card B, and "you can only use the effect of card B once per turn," can card A copy the effect of card B more than once per turn because you're not technically using the effect of card B? Obviously wouldn't work with Verte specifically because it's once per turn itself, but that seems like quite the loophole.
Yes I'm 99% sure you can copy it multiple time, copying effects does not copy restrictions such as "you can only use this effect once per turn". Same reason as why Verte doesn't copy the restriction "You cannot Normal or Special Summon other monsters the turn you activate this card" when copying the effect of Red Eyes Fusion. Guess this could come into play if you summoned multiple copies of Phantom of Chaos with multiple copies of the same monster in the GY, or when Starving Venom was legal.
I can't believe the Molehu ruling actually exists in the OCG database, but I also can't believe the example is Advanced Dark. Who is playing Levianeer in an Advanced Dark Crystal Beast deck
if Chaos Valkyria had been worded as "also" instead of "but", would the "Thunder Dragondark" have not been able to use its effect since "also" indicates that the first half of the effect doesn't necessarily have to happen for the second to happen?
Im just happy i knew the answer to 2 of these questions. The one with molehu i got because i play esabers with levi in duel links. Verte i found out the hard way lmao
You should troll farfa with neo-spacian marine dolphin or twinkle moss the only 2 that always have 2 names . Like how much attack will "Duza the Meteor Cubic Vessel" will gain with one of them in the gy and how many monsters will cocoon party summon
I have a question involving cards and effects that make players perform actions, take Evenly and Cyber Angel Dakini, they both have effects that make your opponent send away cards to the GY. My question is, if there is card amongst the cards being sent away that activate it's effects when it leaves the field via an opponents card and/or card effect, will it activate? As I have been that those cards don't "affect the field, but instead affect players". Thanks.
This would be my take on it. lmk if this makes sense to you (edit: or not lol): Chas space says: 'add 1 LIGHT or DARK monster that cannot be Normal Summoned/Set from your Deck to your hand, with a Level from 4 to 8, and with a different Attribute than that monster. " and does not say: "add 1 LIGHT or DARK monster that cannot be Normal Summoned/Set from your Deck to your hand, with a Level from 4 to 8, and with a different Attribute than that monster ***IN THE GRAVEYARD***" The reasoning stated by Coder is that the resolution doesn't check if it is in the graveyard - only that it was a LIGHT monster
Lol that Levi ruling makes no sense, the card specifically states that the effect activates "When summoned this way:" meaning it activates after it was summoned (When effects being trigger effects that activate after their trigger has been met) therefore it would check the attributes of the monster that are now banished (meaning the Elementsaber would be a dark again), but it resolves this way because Levi "remembers" that it banished a light and 2 darks. Despite them being 2 different parts of the card.
How does it not make sense? It recognizes the materials used for its summon. They don’t change just because they were moved to a different place and are considered something different after the summon.
@@Harmonic14 It doesn't make sense because the closest precedent ruling we have to this one contradicts this ruling. Welcome to my friend and yours Master Peace, the True Dracoslaying King. Q:"A Vijam the Cubic Seed treated as Continuous Spell Card by its own effect is face-up in my Spell & Trap Zone. During my Main Phase, if I activate the effect of Disciples of the True Dracophoenix that performs a Tribute Summon of a "True Draco" monster, and Tribute Summon a Master Peace, the True Dracoslaying King by Tributing both Vijam the Cubic Seed and Disciples of the True Dracophoenix, which card types' effects is Master Peace, the True Dracoslaying King unaffected by?" A: "In this scenario, Master Peace, the True Dracoslaying King was Tribute Summoned by Tributing Vijam the Cubic Seed, which is originally a Monster Card, and Disciples of the True Dracophoenix, which is a Spell Card. Therefore, the Tribute Summoned Master Peace, the True Dracoslaying King is unaffected by Spell and monster effects. (It will be affected by Trap effects normally.)"
