King of Yu-Gi-Oh Rates Classic Magic Cards 

Please bring him back he needs another chance show him cards that either started archetypes or heavily contributed to their success

@@adambryant6854 we can't show archetypal cards since they usually tend to be good because of other cards, which would be unfair unless you show the other cards. But if you present them 2-5 cards they will get rather suspicious :P

@@CardmarketMagic You should get Sam in for some MTG commander and see how he goes.

Yall should put helm of awakening in this

He’s converting mtg cards in his yugioh knowledge since they both have similar cards

"The most BROKEN land ever printed! - MTG Undefeated Deck Profile!!" Lol

i had a friend who was a casual player and felt the same way every time he found a combo. "dude, it has hexproof AND indestructible. it basically wins you game dude." cool story bro. now choose a sacrifice.

Wait until he release the broken strategy of the troll 🧌 and a mat sale

It really is. Was waiting for the vine boom with every card flipped up

It’s kinda Sam’s thing

@@chancylvaniaWas literally about to say the same thing

Yesss. He was the least knowledgeable in magic and Jamin explained very little. But he saw every card and loved it.

It's really what anyone'd want a yugioh champion to be like, so on theme

Who is this guy?

Ya can't miss all

Canon event

He single handedly made me proud to have Magic Mirror in my Mizzix deck

Song of creation is genuinely strong in the right deck. Just sort of a glass cannon.

This guy in the yugioh community is the king of overhype so don't worry your not the only one. That being said we love the hype he brings to each game he's in so if he says your card is broken don't worry it might not be but he see's potential.

Song of Creation at face value is obviously broken and even pro players would immediately be very worried about it. I would think it strange is someone would not think it broken. The tragedy is simply that it is too slow and fragile to actually be competitive with, but when you go off oh boy do you go off.

Well I wouldnt want a car salesman that tells me everything is broken

Yeah his enthusiasm is infectious

He is way more intelligent then his "personna" would make you think at times. He is a close/barely pro level in yugioh when he is serious and well, that experience in TCG translates into good intuition/questions. Doesnt change the fact hsi content is unwatchable for anybody with 3 working braincells. It is purely made to purely cater to the algorythm and a very young audience that is hard to get off tiktok for more then 10 minutes. Insanely clickbaity and over the top screaming for pretty mundane content most of the time. Well hate the game not the player. Sam is playing the clown to make money, which is kinda sad cause he is smart and way more entertaining when he keeps to his natural self

@@xardas149 yeah i know. His Channel is a Lot of Hype and screaming . Ive Seen him on some occasion and He seems To be very smart and a really cool Guy .

He seems super cool, I’d love to see him play some magic now

@@Adam-yt8uz On this channel maybe. On his own it would cause ear bleeding :(

Ohh, you have my vote.

Please, they need to make this happen!

Have one for the other direction too I don't want to be the only one being confused at ygo after years of magic.

wait i wanna see that LRR video now what's it called?

@@rasen7721 It wasn't MTG noobs, but MTG players on their team that don't play that format. Here it is anyways. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pQOyTILvAYo.html

Still not clear on why City of Traitors is broken. You can get a broken Turn 1 but you can't add more lands without losing it.

@@woodysmith2681because playing a 2 mana spell on turn 1 and then a 3 mana spell on turn 2 is broken, even if you sacrifice a land afterwards.

@@woodysmith2681 Because speed is always better than sustainability. In any game, not just MTG, the earliest moves are always the most impactful. Getting the upper hand in the early game can put you in a dominant position before your opponent has the resources to react.

@@woodysmith2681you can use city of traitors to add the mana to your mana pool before you play a land and destroy it. The mana pool is separate from the land itself.

@@woodysmith2681You really should just see it in action to understand why. You can have 4 mana on turn 2 if you float a city and then play another one, then you’ll still have 2 mana to use on turn 2, and can even make 3 off of a basic if you’re willing to lose your city, and on turn 3 you can still play another city over top of whatever land you have.

That's just mean xD

Torment him enough to think timetwister or ancestral recall is bad

Show him Rystic Study

You're all evil, I love it!😂

Bitter Reunion, Night's Whisper, Treasure Cruise, glimpse of nature and skullclamp

Yeah he's always really excited in all of his videos, and people are generally really surprised to see that he's just as enthusiastic IRL. Another yugituber, MBT (funnily enough that stands for MonoBlueTron) once described him as follows: "In 2011 the spirit of yugitubing briefly inhabited an otherwise normal child one day at recess, and he had so much fun making videos that it never left. Sam is but a vessel for the eternal spirit of yugitubing"

​@@Dr.CaveCurinasI read that in Joseph's voice

@@Dr.CaveCurinas See, I respect Sam's enthusiasm and energy for the joy of Yugioh. But I, personally, find him a bit overenthusiastic and I struggle with his energy. Which I personally find a bit of a shame, because I'd love to enjoy his content more.

Yessss

Well, Seth from MtgGoldfish did an Against the Odds Song of Creation and Clackbridge Troll. The Magic Mirror is the only thing missing.

This

Play as many stinkers in one deck as possible and see if it functions at all

I liked the whole "grabbing mana out of the air" bit :D

Clark killed me lol. I read the name before looking at anything else and was like “Wait there’s a card just called Clark? Wtf?” 😂

It's our new editor, Fele :) we always just have one editor per episode (usually it's always me, Carl, but we just hired Felizian and he's doing a great job!)

He got the energy for it 😅

The multicolored understatted vanilla legendary creatures from Legends might be too much for him, but aside from those, I think you're right! And now that I've taken some time to think about it, I think he could even manage to make those sound good if he tried.

He would make ‘one with nothing’ a eternal staple

It's always nice to hear :D thank you!

Not really, they all played with Mystic Mine. They know what Stax feels like.

​@@bizarrosorcererDredge is just Tearlaments, we have experienced that pain as well.

The thing yugioh players would find hard to adjust to is how simple combo decks are in magic. Even stuff like kci is relatively basic compared to some of the more intricate yugioh combo decks, while most combo decks are "I have card A, card B and card C on the field now so I win". Its all because of no extra deck in magic.

@@DuncanHarbison To be fair I would consider YGO to have almost no combo decks. None of their cards combo with each other in new or interesting ways most of the time, no, what they have are "Here's a thing that generates more advantage, here's an archetype searcher, heres both on the same card." Meanwhile, we have I dunno, any creature that taps to generate at least 2 mana (at least one blue) and Pemin's Aura and suddenly infinite mana. 90% of YGO combos are archetypes interacting with themselves to do the thing the archetype is designed to do. It's like calling Slivers a combo deck.

Lantern control?

He's not the sharpest tool in the shed tbh

It seems he thinks there are "mana cards" in your deck and City of Traitors puts 2 mana cards directly from your deck unto the battlefield.

@@Kalenz1234 I'll say it in the nicest way possible. Sam is not the sharpest tool in the shed

Nah he's chill I like his energy

@@mr.wafflesrz1137It always makes me laugh when people say Sam is dumb when he’s topped YCSs

I also love that he's a Thalia simp. Aren't we all

I just looked them up :) Ruxin's currently too small for us to justify paying for flights all the way to Germany + hotels and such, but maybe one day if they grow (or our budget grows!) 🥳

Kinda interesting though that Sam overrated all the card draw but guessed correctly on all cards that interact with the mana economy.

@@chromaticchrome3746 I would have been interesting to see how he would have rated the cards if it went in the other direction.

@@chromaticchrome3746 YGO players tend to overrate card draw because their game restricts it heavily. Consider, if it were a YGO spell card, is an instaban. Any one mana cantrip looks like an Upstart Goblin without downside AND with an upside. It's the result of the game's only resource system, aside from normal summons, being cards in hand (and, as a consequence, having no resource cards to flood you)

@@chromaticchrome3746 The reality is - he just called everything staple, and 2 of them happened to be.

@@user-iz7nu4wk3h Yeah, but he also provided reasoning with that and it was mostly sound.

He from North America, it's incredibly expensive to fly him over 😅 we can't do it too often

As they always do 2/3 or 3/2 derivations only. Picking 5x the same is thus literally just a coin flip between these 2 results. Which basically he lost... 2/5 is literally the worst possible result he could have gotten, given the setup.

Or just the five Epic cards. "Yeah, no....they're all terrible. Except the white one, which was occasionally fringe playable in some specific formats."

We are clearly not looking at limited for this series 😅 many of magic's staples are terrible in limited and so many constructed stinkers are limited bombs

They are both from North America 😅 it's terribly expensive to fly them over to Berlin. We might work with them again some day but it won't be any time soon :)

@@CardmarketMagic perhaps Farfa (yugioh creator) could be in the future since he's in the EU which i assume would be significantly easier

@@SphealTV we already reached out to Farfa. Unfortunately, since he is a Konami branded content creator, he was too afraid of losing his deal with them by working with us. Konami can be really strict

@@CardmarketMagic that's sad to hear but totally understandable not to many people are Konami sponsored. Thank you guys from the awesome videos and the effort to respond to silly comments like mine. Your teams are amazing!

Hahaha that's what we thought when we first considered inviting him. He's the guy from the reels we watch even if we don't play Yu-Gi-Oh!
