Reuploaded because there was an issue with overlapping clips near the end of the video. Long story short, my computer's mouse started acting up as I was finishing videos before the WCQ, and I decided to wait until I got home to fix it. It was still an issue when I got back, but I wanted to make sure I posted a few videos once I got back so I just dealt with it (although it made editing a lot slower). I was able to avoid overlap issues for almost the entire video right up until the end, but it was significant enough that I felt I should fix it. Sorry for the confusion/delay
Actually, blue eyes White dragon is the most powerful card in Yu-Gi-Oh. He is virtually indestructible and very few have faced this creature and lived to tell the tale. Your wizard maybe the ultimate wizard but he is not indestructible.
Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon is a clear winner, because it's a direct upgrade from Blue-Eyes White Dragon, with effect negation and atk increase on its kit. Seeing how vanilla Blue-Eyes is the ultimate dragon in terms of attack and defense, of course it had to get on the list.
It's kind of format dependent though. There's no such thing as an objectively powerful card except for maybe a few on the ban list that enable FTKs and what not. Things like supreme King dragon starving venom and firewall.
@@matty9460 I was gonna say there are some objectively broken cards like sixth sense and delinquent duo so there is definitely a list of cards that are good no matter the format
@@okitsqwerty that's a good point. I think that a list of 10 best cards would ironically have mostly older cards before Konami figured out what broke the game and what didn't
@@okitsqwerty Sixth Sense yes. Duo not so much. Yes Duo is a strong card that serves as a free hand rip if it's not stopped, but the fact that your opponent gets to choose which card they discard makes it less powerful than a card like Moulinglacia if more versatile. Cards like Royal Oppression, Graceful Charity, and Dimension Fusion are far more powerful than Duo could ever hope to be in modern Yugioh and will remain on the ban list forever without question.
Bro thanks to you to took 1at at locals I seen you cards with confusing effects and seen (magnet reverse) and I'm a cyber dragon player and wow did that change my deck up. I'm a returning player from the time period where yata lock ran the game. You have been a huge help getting back into it. Keep up the good videos bro huge fan and much love from OKC
@@bluefable3416 bro ain't got to rain on my parade I was just happy I took 1st. It's people like you that make people hurt them selfs well bro you can look me up in actually real about my stuff. So please go some where with the negativity please and have a blessed day my guy. I hope some day you enjoy life and stop being a troll
I love this kind of content A LOT! I would love to watch more of this and your reaction to these articles are HILARIOUS! I absolutely love it! Always making me laugh! 😂😂
Hey dzeff, im a duel links player, i enjoy your discusion videos and article reviews, they give me a good perspective of what the tcg looks like, but if you could start expalining briefly what some of the less known cards (for duellinks and casual players) like towers or last turn do, i would enjoy the content even more!
"This monster looks almost exactly like Thanos" *shows scrawny ass dragon with a tail and energy wings* I'm sorry but it's just a similar color scheme, that's pretty loose criteria for such a claim.
To be fair, if you didn't have to tribute Ultimate Dragon for Shining and you tributed maybe just one Blue Eyes, it might be decent for a few years ago.
People were very aware of Solemn Judgment back in '05 we just thought it's time hasn't come yet. SJ is like fine wine, it gets better the older it is because the faster the format, the better it is... well you know except of course that this wine can also get sour a bit because with a game THIS fast and stuff like handtraps this card was in a way powercrept, sure. But still, more than enough people were aware of SJ during Goat-format the card is just simply not very good in such long and dry recourse battles.
For the toadally awesome ranking, frogs where hovering around tier 1.5 at their peak, but the reason frog is good is because you could bahamet shark into it meaning that any rank 4 deck now had access to dweller, frog, (and I think bagusca maybe she wasn't around then) and Utopia the lightning making rank 4 decks have strong control and removal options (this happened until master rule 4 happened where getting the combo was much less efficient)
I'm not gonna lie.....I thought about it after I was sphere modes twice at my locals.....it would be quiet a surprise if I just summoned RA with it lol
Maybe that should be a fun counterpart to this. He writes an actual article for one of these websites that is grammatically correct and competitively accurate.
Hey Doug, these are actually some of my favorite videos you put out. I would love to continue seeing more of these, they're always super funny while also providing some interesting information on the history of the cards, and why they're wrong. Knowing something is wrong and knowing why something is wrong are both very distinctly different things, and I'm glad that you explain both. Keep up the great work! I would love to see a video like this every week
I don't know what you're talking about at the beginning of the video, those article reactions are golden. Loved the first one, and this is great as well.
I am working on a literal reincarnation deck using Ra. Sphere mode obviously is a primary weapon and I have a card that allows you to pull a Monster from the graveyard every time three monsters are use as tributes. In other words, Ra is just gonna keep tearing its ugly head and I can also recover Sphere Modes. Five draw spells, foolish burial and Burning Abyss up the bazoo. And yes I am crazy enough to include 2 Helpoemer. Heavy price to pay, but your opponent can’t attack you without losing a card at the end of the battle phase. Helpoemers effect is not a hard once per turn effect either. So, if both copies are destroyed and sent to the GY, you’re opponent can’t attack without losing 2 cards per end of battle phase. To make sure I survive the heavy price, Ghost Girl and Spooky Dogwood
dude i don't even own a deck and i watch your videos religiously. your analysis is top-notch for an avid strategy game player/enthusiast. English writing major to English writing major: fuck what the haters say, just make the content that you want to. also, i am hyper-aware of my bad punctuation and capitalization but, again, english major to english major, fuck that too.
An old friend had 2 attack position Monsters and I had a face down Marshmallon I activated mirror force to counter the attack he activated solemn judgment as counter and well this was at the start of the duel and you probably can guess what ended up happening. Now to clarify that this happened back in 2010.
Maybe Megamorph is just weirdly worded, but if I read it correctly, the Cyber-End Dragon‘s atk shouldn‘t be able to rise above 8000. That‘s even with Limiter removal. If that‘s not the case, it‘ll be ((4000 x 2) x 2) x 2. Therefore, it‘d be 32000.
Can we point out that the introduction thing says “Finally, we’ve added a handful of cards that even a die-hard duelist won’t expect” literally right after saying they used Tournament results to make the list? Imagine a list saying “we’re going to be objective in making the first list, but then just do whatever we want to change it”
Any card that would make summoning Exodia competitively viable gets limited or banned, not to mention all the pieces themselves being limited. So if we judge cards as good or bad based on the idea of how good it would be _before_ the f&l list gets applied, it's not necessarily a bad card.
I really like watching you videos even if i sometimes or even many times disagree when you say stuff like:" hey this card is bad" BUT i really like how you talk about that you arent like some other yugitubers, i think of a german one right now, that is like if u dont like my opinion get away... you really discuss and accept the opinions from others thats cool keep it up:) greetings from Germany
i dont know about anyone else but i understand blue eyes shining dragon i use it in my blue-eyes deck when you finally get to play shining stop somethings and kill your opponent who is using true king you feel amazing like i do.
12:08 On that note.. Which card WOULD be the most powerfull? I mean, I don't think there's a card that can be called THE most powerfull. Maybe the most powerfull in a given format. If I may chose one to be called that, in my opinion would be Makyura the Destructor.
I haven’t played much Yugioh at all since I was really into it back in 2012. One of my fav decks was my Blue Eyes deck and Shining Dragon was sorta my trump card and I used it a lot to win against friends (we were all really bad at the game). Despite all that, I saw the thumbnail to this video and instantly thought “What in the actual fuck?”
The author of this article didn't seem to be sure whether they wanted to talk about genuinely good cards, or cards that were said or shown to be ultra-powerful in the manga/anime (even if actually they aren't at all in the real life game).
Could exodia be considered because it's easily one of the better OTK type decks in the game? I mean the writer isn't thinking that but technically it is easy to win if exodia can get it's searching going.
Why people or he did tihnk number 6, red eyes darkness metal dragon, is OP. If you can draw it turn 1, and have the 1 monster to sac to summon it, you could end up having 2 lv 8+ monsters on the field. From a very casual POV; aka we just buy packs and maybe one or two good card online we like. It has little to no counter play. If you cant get rid of it very fast, you just kinda get run over. As a child back then, you just had nothing that could deal with it. So your opponent just began to spam high attack monsters, and if they could, would even leave it in defense, so you couldn't mirror force it, as everyone had mirror force(or atleast the people back in my childhood had it lol, we never bought cards online)
I feel like there's always a point in these articles where a few entries in a row are at least KIND OF understandable and then you see something like Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon and just... huh?!?
if Ra had his spear mode effect his pheonix mode effect and his actual effect on top of the cant be targeted by spells and traps in the anime all rolled into onw, then maybe....MAYBE hed be able to make a top 10 powerful card list
Looking at the Sacred Beasts they're bad, but they're still better than the Egyptian Gods because at least they're special summons, if you can put three of their required card on the field you can summon them without any other hangups.
You mentioned that some cards should never be printed. But the Same cards don't saw competetiv play. Could you maybe make a video where you review these cards? Like top 10 worst designed cards in yugioh.
what IS casual play? besides like non-tournament duels and/or traditional format tourneys, what is casual play? is it just people being unaware of what a good deck currently is or something? is me trying to make my rainbow neos turbo deck the best it can be on ygopro casual cause im not playing in a tourney, or with a current meta relevant deck, or whatever? i dont get it
1:00 "once again...or even...or at least..." I'm trying to decipher why Dzeef talks the way he does...I don't think he likes being corrected. lol Random commenter: "Well, there's this one rare exception.." Dzeef: (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ Well, now I have to make another video! Let me first give my 90 second disclaimer that this isn't going to be my regular content! "Commenters...don't...understand...why I'm RIGHT!" Proceeds to talk calmly...
Know what would be better than Shining, Machine King and Perfect Machine King. They have the same effect but better and they can screw the opponent with DNA Surgery and limiter removal
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to play Skull Servants. The plays are extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of game theory most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also King of Skull Servants' Atk increase, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The skilled players understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these cards, to realise that they're not just good- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Skull Servantz truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the skill in using Lady in Wight, which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Konami's genius wit unfolds itself on their locals. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂 And yes, by the way, i DO have a The Wandering Doomed tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎
@@quinnnosbod3673 did it really? I thought good boss monsters nowadays are more fokused on generating advantage an easy summoning conditions. Towers do generate advantage but rather slow, also it is kind of hard to summon, so if your opponent does get rid of it you are very vulnerable, wich is very different from bardiche or balerdroch or whatever.
I would have put pot of greed from what I have learned from dzeeff and im starting to think that there are 2 wrighters in all of these a decent one and a casual one
