Joshua Schmidt Reacts to Jesse Kotton winning his 5th YCS 

How about instead of limiting something on the banlist, we limit Jesse to winning only 1 YCS per Year?

kinda insane how many people started to cry about Triple Tactics Talent already. But as a wise man once said "Given enough time, Yu-Gi-Oh players will cry abou literally anything"

"Why he keeps winning?" A: Because he doesn't lose. Hope this helps!!!

Like Magnus Carlsen once said: I think his main strength is that he's just better than others.

At this point the debate between playing Tour Guide or not has been settled by the results. There is literally no top placing Unchained without Tour Guide. Perhaps no one wants to give it a shot but I am pretty damn sure the best players have done more testing than randos in the YT comments section.

Jesse is insane. Not only does he have 5 wins, he has a lot of ycs tops too.

He didn't choose winning. Winning chose him.

We need some josh vs/& jessy content, cant wait for next worlds

4:20 Joshua hates staples confirmed

Dude put all his skill points into Intelligence

I find it funny how Hoban at some point dominated YGO and now its Jesse .. the guy who Hoban used to hangout with the most. You can really tell how these guys managed to learn how to optimize deckbuilding and think ahead of the curve. Him, Joshua and some other folks have gotten lonelier tho since the peak level of ygo has less good player nowadays.

I can’t believe Jesse tried to Patrick Hoban us into thinking Thrust was mid when it came out

One of the funniest things I’ve seen in Yugioh is the majority of the Unchained discord/FB group community swearing up and down Tour Guide was horrible, and the actual good players disproving them

But when is Joshua gonna go and get another ycs win? 👀 it’s time

The greatest players create the meta.

He’s like the real life Jaden Yuki, lives and dreams YGO. Dude literally came up with a tournament winning Utopia Double strategy in the shower.

Master Duel Championship Runner-Up wins a YCS!

He is sooo much better than the rest of the playerbase. Even compared to high level players there is a noticeable skillgap.

No lie for the longest time I thought these two were the same guy

On the gryphon topic, its funny how paradoxical it is. Last event when pak won several people were on 4+ book cards which would be dead against gryphon so that was a preferred end board. After that event when people realised books can be dead against unchained people cut down on some books which made ddd better. That plus replacing the books with nibs is a phenomenal meta call for that event especially going first.

Decks don't brick, people brick.

Hi joshua, I have a question about a card. If I set a fire king monster facedown and I activate sky burn during my opponent turn, it work or not? I was thinking about icarus attack. I just wanted to know if it work? Ty and have a nice day 😊

unchained was a meta choice for the event. Wont hold for long when people stop spamming droll and stuff

OK guys but with all due respect

Instead of those pie charts with decks, we have pie charts with Jesse's face on them?

Coder said tourguide was bad and the unchained community for some reason takes his opinion on unchained as the gospil so if they say something is bad they'll live and die by that. it's weird. the same thing can be said about Unchained Wailing. Coder keeps saying it's bad. I agree. it's really annoying when a good deck needs to play bricks in order to make better plays. it's similar to Infernoble. I'm a firm believer that the dracoslayer package is too insane to not play in the deck but it has 1 soft brick in majesty Pegasus that loses value if you hard draw it. sure you still get to pendulum summon it to search a field spell but then it won't be a tuner while it would be one if summoned by the effect of Ignis Phoenix. sure the standard Infernoble noble board is strong but people complain it loses to Dark ruler and the dracoslayer combo helps build a board that doesn't lose to dark ruler that isn't searching for a flood gate.

People like Jesse and Pat Hobans thought processes are different than most. That’s why they will continue to top event after event

he is just build different

Because he plays yugioh like he’s playing a chess game he’s always 5 turns ahead of his opponent

he's just built different

Because he is good 👍 👍👍

Hi Joshua Why do you think that Tour Guide is not that relevant for the deck.

Because he plays duel night every week

jesse and joshua are the ronaldo and messi of ygo. I wish we would see them face off in a ycs or world final. master duel doesn't count. I mean IRL face to face handshake game :D

Marionette mite is very based. I wish they would make a card like that for psychic/wyrms.

I wanted to build unchained and then realized it’s gonna cost me $700 ish to fully build it 😭

what makes unchained become popular now?

If Konami does hit the deck, the most based hit would be TGU to (1)

Jesse's talent, and I've seen this time and time again, is that he mastered the combo's within the game almost to a tee, knowing exactly when to perform them when they are most effective... its clear that he tests his deck against multitudes of decks and then learns how to counteract said decks before perfecting it...

Goat reacting to the other goat

How many YCS has Joshua won again?

Made a post in zodiac questioning how fair Unchained is and alot of players did not like it

Lowkey Prospe should be banned next banlist. I don't get why ppl want it at 1, it would just completely randomize the game even further.

Its cuz he thinks out the box everyone who play wants to use meta or play what other ppl play but jesse thinks of other ways n card to combo with in the long run

the title in the image is sus asf "Why he keeps winning? 🤤😭"

They’re extremely good at slight of hand

Thrust is an annoying card for many reasons, but one of them is that it fundamentally changes deckbuilding, so for those of us who have bills to pay, it makes half the profiles out there kind of useless to us. We arent gonna be playing 1 evenly 1 duster 1 dbarrier

sebab boleh dik

Jesse Cotton is everything the little German would like to be

deck stacking

He looks 43

Bricks are good for balancing top tier decks. And Unchained only has two?

No life obviously lol My best friend is cracked at yugioh but gues what? He has to work to maintain his family.

He plays the best deck: probably also wins a lot of die rolls, and it’s modern yugioh so if you open up better then your opponent you will win automatically lol

Most pro players do deck stacking for the earlier rounds until they top. Jesse is definitely a good player, but it’s statistically improbable to get first place that many times when there are that many people in a tournament. Notice how they never brick until feature matches/top cuts.

When he acquire his third chin he will be world champion🎉

I know he is not a bad player, but i kind of dont enjoy his method in deckbuilding

Kotton isn't as good as people think. He ONLY plays the best meta deck at the time. I CHALLENGE HIM TO RUN A ROGUE DECK THAT WE ALL KNOW AND SEE HOW FAR HE GOES #outthefirstround.......

Didn't it come out years ago that he is basically a cheater and legitimately does ANYTHING to win?

Why does he keep winning? Look at him. He sweats yugioh.

JESSE IS REALLY THAT NIGGA 🐐😂

Wait, how his he shuffling so fast. Ah the video is at 1.25 speed 😂
