That just kinda made me hate Konami for making EGCs extraordinarily hard to bring out but making them kinda weak boss monsters. They all should have the effect to be unaffected by other card effects. They are Egyptian GOD cards, my god, but any old card everyone uses makes them totally worthless.
@@scantyer I also think it's dumb, but they probably had to do it to shorten card texts as Yu-Gi-Oh card effects were getting so much bigger and more complicated that most cards had giant walls of text in them.
I find the GY unstylish as all fuck, (it just feels better somehow to read "graveyard"), but with how much crap some cards do today, I can understand the whole GY thing. On the other hand one could say that using a short GY instead of specifically spelling out 'graveyard' is actually pretty appropriate though, since nowadays the graveyard isn't usually much of a graveyard at all, lol.
Necrovalley stops monsters in the graveyard from changing attributes? Well, I guess Konami have got us covered in case Elementsabers ever somehow become meta.
"Rather than having little stipulations on every single card, they just changed his name to Cipher Soldier" Thank god, I think I speak for everyone when I say having another Frog the Jam situation would be hell
My favorite errata are when they change the flavor text of normal monsters for lore reasons, like Burstinatrix being changed from “the only female elemental hero” to “the first female elemental hero” after the introduction of elemental hero Lady Heat
Anthrosaurus: "Dis man-like dinosawz gotta high I.Q., even the he's lackin' in da strength depawtment. (Kinda like yooz, if ya had a high I.Q.! Nyaah!)"
Pot of Greed is the one that needs an errata. "draw 2 cards" but what does that mean. Do you draw pictures of 2 cards? Do you draw from your opponent's deck?
Pot of Greed - Errata After activating this card and resolving its effect, lay your hand on your deck and pick up the top card of your deck and add it to your hand. Repeat this action until you have successfully added 2 cards to your hand by this specific card effect this specific turn.
Top 10 "One Hit Wonder" archetypes, archetypes that were relevant to the meta for an extremely short time, like 1 format or less, like Madolches or Raid Raptors
I always wondered why having Toon World destroyed would cause you to gain life points in some of those GBA Yugioh games. Those specific names of those games escapes me.
@@Yami_Duelist no,he/she means that one card fix the whole archetype problems,and that video means card that so good that played other decks more than it's archtype
Yami Duelist Not really, I just mean cards that made an old archetype good again. Cards “too good for their archetype” are just good period, they didn’t necessarily modernize another archetype like the two examples I gave. More examples would be toadally awesome and extravagance (for gren maju).
Baxter Bruce I’m not saying the card can only have to be used by one archetype, just that it really help one archetype in particular. Magician souls is run as an engine now, but it’s undeniable that it really helped spyral come back as a meta threat.
It is the year 2030. Necrovalley has just been erratad the 15th time, its new effect now stating that necrovalley can no longer be on any banlist after the last errata which allowed it to freely summon any monster from either graveyard during either players turn ignoring their summoning conditions got it finally banned, a step that most players welcomed once the errata that restricted the opponent to only one spell card per turn took place.
@@nicolaistuhlmuller8718 The year is 2050. Yu-Gi-Oh matches are now determined by whoever goes first after Necrovalley's 420th errata made playing it an instant - win condition, which comboed well with its 69th errata which allowed it to have up to 40 copies in any deck.
@@Andyjoe522 The year is 2068. Yu-Gi-Oh matches are now deterministic draws, as Necrovalley's 701st errata made it play itself from the deck or hand as soon as the duel starts, which comboed well with its 420th errata
I think the problem with Harpie's brother is that it was released before archetypes were really a thing so it was only seemingly given the name Harpie for lore reasons and didn't have any support (for instance Harpie's pet dragon specified that it could only gain attack from Harpie Lady or Harpie lady sisters because back then cards had to specify the full name of a card they worked with and couldn't just say a "harpie" card). Harpie's feather duster was another weird one. One of the most powerful spellcards in the early game that everyone loved to use and yet almost never with a harpie themed deck because there wasn't anything in the text that specified it had to be used with a Harpie card. Come to think of it, in the anime Mai I think was the first (and for a long time only) character to use an archetype deck (Harpie and then later on Amazoness cards) while everyone else would just use a broad type of card (e.g. Rex used dinosaurs, Weevil insects, even Kaiba didn't really build his deck around Blue eyes cards, just had the three dragons and their fusion form) so it makes sense that konami really struggled with what counts as a Harpie archetype and what didn't.
I was always under the assumption that every card had the same amount of copies of them out there, but with rare cards and ultra rare cards having less than commons but still the same like. Common cards have 10 copies of each, rare cards have 8, ultra rare having 6, secret rare having 4, and ghost rare having 1
Fun fact: I, as a Lightsworn main, am pretty sure that the reason why Konami changed Ryko's effect to not target the card you're going to destroy is because the Twilightsworn Ryko does not target but banishes and is on his summon, not when he is flipped face-up (which is a lot better). So it would make the normal Ryko a little bit to bad in comparison to his dark version.
For Y-Dragon head, you forgot to mention the errata about its protection effect. Before, it could only protect X-head Cannon from being destroyed by battle. Now it can protect it from both battle and card effect
I don't know why they don't make "Cannot be normal summoned/set" its own special monster type like Flip effects. Could save a lot of room in the text box.
The OCG has "Special Summon" in the monster type line (BLS-EotE is "[Warrior/Special Summon/Effect]") denoting a monster must be special summoned by its procedure first for exactly that reason. (【戦士族／特殊召喚／効果】). I wish the TCG would also adopt the ①② system, too, to wholly differentiate between different effects of the same card and show which ones have restrictions.
@@Kylora2112 yeah this is an insanely good idea. I'm pretty glad I only play Yugioh digitally, because it's pretty confusing sometimes figuring out which monster can be special summoned and which one can't.
@@Nerobyrne its not the same feeling when you play online. if you can afford cards, i suggest that you buy them, its so nice to open packs and touch them😁. but if you cant, then just play online and still enjoy 😄
I still love how overall game rule changes have affected cards. I mean for example Fires of Doomsday's current errata actually requires the word NORMAL in it's card text when refuting to the type of set that's possible. This is namely due to the fact that a set (if I'm recalling this correctly) for a long time was treated as anytime you would summon a monster in face down defence position. Now you may ask why is this relevant it's because the fact that special summon in face down Def position wss possible. I'd love to see a list of cards that had eratta or have changed effects due to overall rule changes for how things were treated oe worked.
1:04 Wow an accidental attribute change then name change. I'm a bit surprised they didn't give it a "This card is always treated as a Cipher card" clause instead of changing it's name. 14:51 Which is a shame for older union monster This was a great list I learned allot 😄
yeah, necrovalley! gravekeepers was my first deck back in 2013 and i remember having to deal with the "unless they move themselves" part, especially against fire kings. recently came back to the game and didnt see that part there anymore and was like yeahhh it finally just makes to where you cant touch the grave at all. thats what i always wanted! and then there's the attribute thing but thats weird for me lol
top 10 cards that change the way to play I mean the battle as you say of riko that changed the way ofset cards in the main phase 2 or for example gorz that when attacking always with the weakest monster and currently with Lightning Storm that on the first turn after placing a field many deniers are placed in defense mode for example.
Question: My "Ryko, Lightworn Hunter" is the 4th errata (I had to check), if i entered a tournament, what effect will my Ryko follow, the current version (does not target) or the version I have (can force miss timing)?

Sebarsh Thumbadoo every card follows the current ruling, regardless of what is actually printed on the card. If you insist on using your older text, make sure to have a printout, or a copy of the newest errata for the judges in case something happens
@@hotwheelsearl So if I can get away with it (if my opponent or the judges don't know any better), I can use the effect my one has until I choose (or when I need it) to reveal that there was an errata, to which I have to use the errataed effect afterwards?
I've only recently found out that Sangan has been errataed 5 times. I still have a version which is probably 15 years old by now. I've always thought that its only errata was the restrictions.
Hey I know this is an old video but I just want to say it’s very well made and I really enjoyed it. I have one question though: if you were able to give an errata to Chaos emperor dragon in order to buff it without getting it banned then how would you do it?
I am on the mobile youtube app so I don't know if this is common, but it is cool that for some reason the app shows the top spots to the side of the video length!
I remember back when Madolche came out it said “when this monster you control is destroyed and sent to the graveyard, shuffle it back to deck” if you could negate the summon then technically it would it stay in GY. After a tourney they made the rule to possession instead of control.
Top 10 cards that weakened their respective deck because it got banned, because it got abused in other deck\engines. For example: Steam the Cloak got banner because of the needlefiber plays, even though it was used before in Blackwings
Spellbook' of Judgements gotta be nunber 1. It took the Spellbook deck from high Tier2/bordeline Tier 1 into the only deck that can match full-power Dragon Rulers...
Not too great . . . if you don't stop the spamming of Link Summoning/Extra Deck summoning etc. (unless part of their spamming involves moving a card from their graveyard), it might not do much in these days' meta!
0:18:46 - A "soft once per duel" effect does exist, in cards that say "This effect can only be used once while this card is face-up on the field.", like with Magician of Dark Illusion. It says "this card", so if it dies and then you revive it somehow (or if you Book of Moon it and flip it back up), you can re-use its effect that duel (even that turn). However, if you've already used its effect that turn but it remained on the field that whole turn, you cannot activate its effect again in a later turn if it remains face-up on the field. It is therefore once per duel per copy. (I just now tested it in EDOPro, and confirmed this is true!)
@Galaspark The original version of the card doesn't address where the fusion materials can be. It wasn't until its errata that it's made clear they can be on the field OR in the hand.
technically necrovalleys effect could negate a crap ton of cards as well, since any spell/trap that isn’t a field spell, cont. spell or cont. trap “involves the graveyard” by being sent there after the effect resolves…i imagine it would be quite op in that sense
A card that had 4 Errata that saved my butt a few times back then was the Field card Umi support trap card Tornado Wall. The new ones only blocks battle dmg initiated from the opp, there was the 1st one that just blocks all damage.
It's an official, competitive format so it does. If Magic players have to acknowledge when a card is better in one format than another, then Yugioh players can handle it.
They should errata Hanged man to switch it's effects. Makes no sense that that card's head effect is the worse one when the whole deck is based upon flipping heads
So when Jaden used his Elemental Hero Necroshade's special ability in that gravekeeper episode, should he have lost that duel? Because winding down he had The Warrior Returning Alive in his hand which WOULD let him revive a warrior from his GY, but Necrovalley would negate that effect. And Necroshade's effect allowed him to summon his Bladeedge because of it being in the GY. Man, just fuck Necrovalley. Lol.
John B aka Smooth Chocolate necrovalley effect is consistent with the duel. You can’t move cards in the graveyard somewhere else, but card effects in the graveyard can still be activated (as long as they don’t move themselves)
I woulnt say Necrovalley got "buffed" per se. Yeah it got a small buff from errata 5 to 6 but Necrovalley in its full glory shut down any card that involved the graveyard. That would make it one of the top 3 floodgates of all time. There's a strong case for OG Necrovalley being the GOAT floodgate in today's meta
