Fuck that, “Stevie, hopefully this offends you ….”

@@NewtBannner if I ever do write that is if he ever brings up gambling again

@@randombadchannel8700 hahahaha Same dude, it’s like, dude we fucking get it and no one cares haha

you are aware ash blossom is an auto win against like 300 decks

@@anakinsmith4770 shifter is probably double that,

I'll defend full-power Kash but Exosister is not a great deck. Kinda falls apart against faster or grindier strategies

@@Trailblazer1002 ok then that proves the point that a not great deck can win with just DShifter making it better. Even tho that’s not true because exosister has won big tourneys in Kash format

At least he is going at an interesting angle. He's not talking about all floodgates, just a specific subset of them being lingering floodgates

@@chrismiller3548 why don't people just adapt where forced to adapt to hand traps even though there toxic as hell

@@anakinsmith4770 because lingering floodgates are much harder interact with

It's like saying if you can adapt to common cold you should be able to adapt your head being cut oof​@@anakinsmith4770

Runick is not balanced but Shifter is. Stevie is on drugs ppl 💀 I wanna me some.

There's more ways to deal with a card than just negating it though. Like my biggest issue with the puppet lock in branded is that the deck always has such absurd follow up after it resolves, unless you flip warlords or grave of the super ancient organism you're not able to deal with it, and they have lines to stop both of those if they respect it. I honestly don't find a card like summon limit or skill drain less problematic than something like d barrier. The continuous traps can be outed but as much more likely to just take the game if they aren't able to be contested, while something like d barrier is at worse a turn skip for decks. Something like branded has lines where it can put up a bit of a board presence through it, but tends to be a engine heavy deck that doesn't run hand traps so is unable to weaken the opponent's board to the point where they can run a longer game.

Memorizing a combo line and understanding what to do when hand traped takes way way more skill then Flipping a floodgate.

@@randombadchannel8700 It really isn't. It is just memorizing a pattern. If A happens, do this. If B happens, do this. If A and B happen, do this. With enough time anyone can memorize a pattern to solve a rubix cube everytime to the point that it looks trivial and no longer takes skill.

@@scott898586 which still requires more training than monke flip TCBOO. Not to mention decks like Infernoble are absolutely non linear as hell

It’s almost like you didn’t even try to think an an answer lmao you just started talking

I know right. I cope with Virtual World, but I do play a bit of Marincess, and Nekroz. VW just doesn't work with shifter, and you can't equip the marincess towers with smaller links because they are banished and not on field, and Nekroz works the best, but you lose a LOT of resources and will probably lose the grind game. It is an auto win(at minimum a turn skip) for VW and marincess, and it is a huge detriment to Nekroz. I hate shifter so much, 5 negates feel better because I can maybe, probably outplay or bait the negates. But how do I deal with shifter besides crosscout, but why crossout because that means we also play shifter so it adds dead cards, or called by the grave, which is limited.

It's not. Ignoring the fact that multiple things can be causing a problem at the same time is foolish.

Most of these problems in Yu-Gi-Oh has been there for like 10 years. As a former player, listening to these players seems like history repeating itself always.

Depends. Hating generic omni negates is cold. More specific stuff like infinity not really

do you want a list of decks that can consistently make VFD 1. VW when it doesn't brick, 2. valkyrie when it doesn't brick that is it because lets be honest your never using it in generaider

​@@anakinsmith4770runick decks could also easily make it, runick generaider would obviously use it, why would you not? But synchro builds most definitely could do it as well Like sleipnir is one half of vfd by itself

@andrejv.2834 oh a control deck playing control cards wow what a surprise

@@anakinsmith4770 anyway yeah those decks can make vfd Idk what this reply has to do with anything

@andrejv.2834 even with Vfd no one is playing those decks

Justifying a turn skip cus the decks that play it are bad is stupid. Should we bring vre back for VW because it's bad?

​@@alexanderbatterbee8369this is a funny example because vw got a premier event win and another top in the past week But the point still stands

"Draw the out" isn't and never has been a good argument. Please try again.

@@Trailblazer1002 Wrong, actually. Put more outs in your deck, be a better player. You're the only competitive card game who whines like this. Floodgates are fair in all the others.

​@@LNRDi being fair in other card games doesn't mean a dam thing

​@@LNRDiSome decks have way less space for outs that evicirate them. In those situations should you just build the basic 40 card deck and slam in 20 "outs" for everything that you could conceivably lose to? That sounds like terrible deck building.

@@randombadchannel8700 Of course it does, the health of comparable card games and formats is the only metric we have to actually measure the health of the game. Talking about it in a vacuum is meaningless, especially when we're talking about "Does X hate the game??" or the quitting discourse or any of that stuff. People don't quit YGO *just* because they hate the game, they quit because there are better card games to play. Fear of comparison is a problem of its own.

Isn't that what your doing rn? Complaining about ppl complaining is pretty much the same as the one complaining about the game Ultimately it's not your right or place to evaluate how the game effects others in other words look in the mirror before you speak. Everyone complains about a format from time to time their is no exception stop being a hypocrite. lol

What the-

@@Citizen_Nappa23 This was a test to see if someone could point out how ironic the argument was. You're right in all aspects.
