is it true that the upper limit on main deck size was introduced essentially because one guy showed up at an event with a thousand card monstrosity or is that some sort of yugioh myth?
It is definetly true, that one guy once played a german national championchip, with a 2222 Cards deck. He even had a giant Deckbox for this deck, which had to be carried by 2 People (the deckbox is now at a local store in Hannover). The deck mainly played search Cards (Mystic Tomato, ROTA), to force the Opponent to Shuffle the deck as often as possible. He was disqualified in Round 2, because it took to Long to Play with this deck. The guy who did this was a judge himself, and did it just for fun and to Showcase, how stupid it was, that there was no Deck Limit.
You should really do a "The History of the Yu-Gi-Oh! NONE Meta in ONE DUEL!" with Alien, Ninja, B.E.S., Mecha Phantom Beast, Cloudian and of course Spellbook for making all the fanboy rage so much.
I still have fun with lots of rogue tier decks.Lots of older decks are better now than ever before. Volcanic with a kaiju engien and burial goods is A1.
Coach Feratu Are you mad because I summoned Dark Magician when you had no monsters left on the field and attacked directly. Then afterwards, I declare myself the master?
A very cool legacy idea, well crafted and executed! The decision to start with 20 k LP was the right one, giving the time to show the evolution of the game with most of the metas. The music choice... less so.
One thing I think could have been really cool here is if past decks helped set up future decks. For example, at the end of the fire fist section, bear set a tenki that never got used. What they could have done is use that card later to search a zoodiac, which means they can use the draw for that turn on whatever the next card is, which means they don’t have to use one of these out-of-time pot of greeds later on.
I see many people saying recent topmeta decks like qliphort and spellbook are missing. Noone conplaining about no frogs or gladis. He just chose some for each era, you cannot represent everyone. Beautiful video man
Then i quit for a while at 6:34 and started playing again last week. This video is pretty cool, i didnt get most of it but once it hit the HAT meta it made so much sense.
Was pretty good early on, started to lose me when they were drawing pot of greeds during formats when it was banned. Pendulum era irked me a bit with the blatant misplays. The opponent using the anime card XYZ Treasure is what really got me though. All that aside, it was still pretty enjoyable, 3/5. Needs more ketchup.
@GCD it looks like you and 18 people dont get it, the pot of greeds are there only to show the combos...you needed more than only 1 card to make a play dont you think?!
Watching this just brought a total joy to my heart. Yes, it may not have had stuff like Spellbooks or anything but the majors were in there. Fire Fists and Mermails not only worked in their own decks but branched out and at the time made decks really really fun to build because you could be very creative. This showed the eras of which took over at the time. Well done well done.
3 years later and this video is still a trip. What an amazing view at the history of the game. I kinda wish that the GBs would have tagged out into something.
the moment I saw rescue rabbit bring out 2 sabersaurus😢. the memories.... I graduated highschool in 2011, and started going competitive around this time. It hasent been too many years since playing wind-up/inzektor hybrid but man it feels like an eternity ago! Rip dino rabbit format, dragon ruler format, nekroz format, pepe format, ABC format, and ultimately RIP Shock Master! Please come back to us😭
I started just before DUA, bought a mermail deck because it looked interesting, a bunch of players played firefist (and bujin) at my locals, later played shaddolls and played mainly against BA, that made me shed a tear. This is such a well made video. Insane work!
This is incredible xD so well produced, there are people nitpicking about the odd detail but to do a progression of the meta over the course of 15 years with 120 cards and do it this well is phenomenal.
This was brilliant. I admire all the thought and research you've invested into this video. And it was an interesting duel, even with the heavy use of overpowered cards (Dark Holes, Mobster Reborn and Pot of Greed). Good job dude.
Black wings 😢 forever in my heart, sold my deck along with other decks and most of my collection, everything was so much simpler I'm 2009/10, 5ds was when I started playing competitively and my god I loved it, glad I moved on from the game, stopped just before xyz, but yugioh will always be an integral part of my childhood, there was a time when in my pre pubescent mind that nothing else mattered, and the simplicity was bliss
Absolutely insane!! I just wish there was space for listing the meta decks of all formats :) I started playing the game more seriously when Nekroz and Qliphort were sharing the meta, I wanted to have seen that in particular
I was really expecting Nekroz, since its one of three "formats" that spring readily to mind, but understand that something had to be cut, other than that it was a fun ride.
@@Sillimant_ and I hope you lend me that single brain cell that you have that made you look through thousands of comments and reply to a FUCKING THREE YEAR OLD COMMENT
chaos won tradition tournies before the ban, but necrovalley decks were godly in that meta because of this. GKs are my favorite archetype for a long time, like 15 years now lol
I thought Player 1 was not using the effects of Karkauri Steelshogun etc. to not shuffle the deck and getting the wrong cards on top, but Player 2 actually did and still got his cards. So why not using the search cards?
This was so beautiful. nearly brought a tear to my eye as this will be the last Yugioh will be like back in the day, now Links are going to dominate the game.
Until now i still playing spellbook, well on yugioh duel monster i was just playing summoner skull and playing just to figure out how to summoning it again when got send to grave, such a nice era
This was a very nice video showing how the game has evolved through the years showing the decks that made yugioh what it is I got the nestalga from it good video
