Actually, it's society giving older men a hard time playing a children's card game. Those mother's automatically see us as predators. I quit for other reasons, but I'm glad I never went back to the real card game.
@@kaimobley5324its not that, but it is really hard to hear someone who Always give Off a good mood or hype Just being borderline broken/sad because of stigmas for a thing they love and are important for them
They were trying to negate Dkayed's further summonings with their bitchy Karen effects. They could only do to that once per day. Dkayed should've used imperm on that kid's mom column to negate their freedom of speech tho
Not really true. Its just yu gi oh was meant to be a pre adult game. Its just people grow up and dont want to let their childhood go. Same with anime or video games. All meant to be for children
@@SNAPLINKSLLC i cant let my childhood go? Lol Its an activity that people still enjoy even as adults and with all the mechanics to come out with yugioh over the years no way in hell its only advertised to new gens at this point. Same for video games and anime there are tons of material more advertised for a mature audience like GTA for games and attack on titan for anime just to name a few.
@@SNAPLINKSLLCAnime and VideoGames are made for children? When did you born on 1800s? 😆 Video games are as far as a film or a book deep actually. Not anymore as Tetris or Pong, maybe you lost the last 40 years of videogames evolution. There are stories that could thrill especially adults in soooooo many games. - Bioshock, with the beautiful idea of Rapture, an underwater city full of technology but destroyed by the greed of people. - Celeste, a girl that confront the depression and anxiety in a spiral of colours that represent the life - The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt, *any single quest is extremely deep*. One for all: the story of the Bloody Baron who lose his wife because of a born dead child which he hates so much but later on life he will must accept that wasn't the child the cause of the loss and he must love the passed away child. - Detroit: Become Human, a game where you must choose wisely who to save: real people or bots who are capable of thinking. What is being alive? What means being a human? Is a robot full of meat, blood and capable of imagination and making ideas, a human? - It takes Two, a beautiful story of a sad married couple that are near to divorce but their daughter will do anything possible for making them to stay together and return to love each other as before. It talks about how important are the soulchains of life, especially when a child is inside of this. Instead of talking on internet without knowledge, go to get informed before writing just a "eh?"
God forbid adults having healthy hobbies. "Hey ma'am, would you like me to go get wasted of alcohol watching mid mediocre Colombian soccer games? That would be good?"
I know right! Most of everyone in the comment section is being too insecure and the dude in this video. Like who wants a boring stressful average adult life where you get depressed and start not caring about your own health smoking and drinking. I hate it when people talk about Master Duel the TCG is way better and always will.
@@Nob911I don't know if I agree that it is toxic, at least not inherently (not that you were saying that, jist clarifying my point). Like a lot, or most, competitive games it can definitely become toxic when playing with randoms but with good moderation it can be better. I do completely agree that it's addicting as hell and should absolutely be a hobby you're careful with.
I like how people don't bat an eye when you play kid board games like Monopoly or connect four. But if you play a complicated card game with so many game mechanics like YU-GI-OH! adults who don't know jackshit about the game will make baseless assumptions about you.
If you are older and play on a softball team, soccer, or something as an adult nobody says anything negative. I've worked with 40+ year olds that watch multiple 3 hour sports games per week, then the super bowl, world cup, etc. and no family member or coworker says anything at all. If I look at a streamed Yugioh tournament or Evo watching street fighter on my lunch break and a coworker sees it I get a talk about maturity and how it is a waste of time. The hypocrisy is ridiculous, we should all be able to "waste our time" and partake in any hobbies we want without scrutiny.
As long as ur not being shitty, such as commiting 1 of the 7 sins, then it doesn't fucking matter wat u do in ur free time. IDC if u play card games, video games, play sports, go fishing, or watch anime, or anything else, it's all the same silliness. Every1 has their own preferred hobby. It shudnt matter wat it happens to be.
If you're playing sports (not e-sports) as a hobby, yeah an average person won't mind, some people will even like it. People expects some random strangers to be "productive" 24/7 when they themselves aren't doing it, it's ridiculous
Im the youngest where i work, everyone else is 40+ so i get lots of stares when im watching YGO content or playing masterduel on break. told them when i first got "questioned" about it: " you think my hobbies are pointless and boring, i think you hobbies are pointless and boring so lets leave it at that cause you dont care what i think and i dont care what you think"
she’s mad because you played with her child more than his dad probably did It’s ok dkayed your just giving her kid a father figure to look up to , good for you man!
@@ygodecktestertubeyugioh is for all ages I am 27 and still play the "grown men" are the ones who been collecting play since the conception of the game who genuinely love it and the interactive of it there should be a cut off age maybe around 40 if your son can beat someone who been playing the game awhile more props
Karen is an anti-White slur. It's using a racial stereotype name to refer to something negative. Imagine calling someone Jamal or Shaniqua as an insult and getting away with that.
I LOVE when people ask me that question. And my response? "Why yes, i have 3 degrees and a health profession , ive earned my adult play time to sit here and play a game ive loved before the inception of your child" Play what you love, not act how others expect, drinking beer with the guys watching sports like an average an. 😅
Yep. This is my experience. I am an older player that got into this game when it came out. I was in my early 20s when I played. Now, as much as I would love to play IRL, I would come off as a creepy old dude. Thank goodness for Master Duel.
Step yo swag up. You walk in the venue in designer gear, I bet you them bitches dick ride. How can you be creepy in a $500 shirt, plus more? I'll wait.
Thank goodness for Master Duel for real. I stopped playing Yugioh around 21 (over a decade ago) because 1) Cards are expensive as hell and 2) No one in my area played except teens and younger. I entered a local tournament and was one of the only older guys there, so I decided to quit playing. My step son (a video gamer) told me about Master Duel when it first came out and I got hooked immediately. This is my FAVORITE game. I haven’t even picked up CoD since then, and my wife is happier for it. Now she doesn’t hear me shouting at 2am because I die in CoD…she hears me shouting because MAXX C!!! 😖😖😖
At my very first locals tournament, we had about 12 of us dueling with only a single kid, most of the others were older teens and adults between 17-25 with a couple of older guys around 30. The kid came with his mom as well and he looked very timid and didn't really speak with anyone. He lost almost every duel but his mom kept encouraging him to duel more. He sat at a corner table with his deck box in his hands looking very uncomfortable after the tournament. You could tell he really wanted to engage with the rest of us but didn't know who or how to speak with anyone. So I picked up my cards and walked over to him and asked if he wanted to play. A few matches, I had three different decks, so three matches with him. He was playing the dino structure deck that came out at the time. My decks were Busted Blader, Dark Magician and Fluffals (which was my main deck for the tournament) and we just dueled. His mom just stood over his shoulder and smiled the whole time and he slowly began to open up and speak more over the course of each game. I let him win two of the games by giving him advice on what cards to play, how to respond to certain chains and how he can use his strategy a bit better. After the matches I traded some cards with him, giving him a good amount of staples like Twin Twisters, Dark Holes, a few generic links and a bunch of stuff that could help with dinosaurs. I only took a couple of commons that I liked that weren't worth much like Summoned Skull and another random card I never saw again. He left very happy and began coming back every now and then for locals. Idk, it feels really discouraging when I don't see a younger generation dueling anymore because I live in a collage town and you'd think there'd be more players but the ygo community is declining. I'm almost 29 and my son's about to be 12 so we can play together sure but my son doesn't really play with his friends because they are too preoccupied with other games. Plus I'd have to fork out extra money to build him competitive decks that even I wouldn't run just because of the secondary market. That kid that came into locals had to scrape by with a structure deck because almost everything would be sold out by scalpers looking to make a profit off of high rarity cards from sets. It's much harder now than it was when I was younger to get into the game. Plus there's so much more going on with the game itself to even begin to keep track of. I won't deny that there are snobby kids and parents who can be disrespectful but from my own experience, this is just my own here, there aren't enough kids playing this game that was designed for them specifically in mind. Master Duel has been great for doing that other than Duel Links. My son and I can easily play those together than the actual card game.
This is the best reason for quitting yugioh ive ever heard, non of this unorigina yugiohl is powercrept, konami are moneygrabbers, nope 80 deck PBJ fingers will do that to a bloke
People, the scene is different everywhere. He was just unlucky the places he went to where like that. That's his anecdotal experience of what he went through. Everyone else will have a different story. Count your blessings if you're lucky to have a good scene near you to play YGO.
M'aam, you could be getting your kid ready for life but you're letting him play this adult's card game at the card shop with middle aged men. This is how you parent?
I can relate. The last sneak peek I went to, I looked at the age of everybody else who signed in and said to myself, " yea I'm getting a little old for this." Luckily, my store was still pretty competitive at that time with players around my age, even on the weekends.
Grown adult men play Super Mario and Pokemon still and still watch cartoons. I feel like a lot of people in this comments section and the guy that uploaded this video are too insecure
People around my age group (millennial) and older sadly are always going to have this type of insecurity. Mainly because our peers have this thought that we're pretty much are not doing anything with our lives if we have some sort of gaming hobby.
@ygodecktestertube I quit playing the TCG for other reasons (at 28. I'm 34 now.) That's good that you don't have that insecurity. More importantly, the negative stereotypes concerning yugioh players need to end.
There’s a few kids at my locals too and I find it very endearing they never win but we always give them free cards and help them improve their decks in any way we can
That's when you explain the actual complexity of the game and that you're actually wanting to go pro. I've shut haters up before irl once I started explaining summon mechanics and chain links 😅😂
can't blame him, this is why I play in my local card shop not in childrens park lol. While yugioh may be a childrens card game majority of its players are adults over 21 ironically
@@Joao_Paulo018We all know it's not a game for kids. If anybody thinks otherwise, they're retardo. It's called marketing. Who's gonna market a card game to people who're already adults? Nobody. There would be no traction if the aforementioned adults didn't grow up on whatever series is being created into a card game. Hence, why most YGO players are 21+.
It's weird because you'll see old dudes and really young kids playing MTG at local game stores and nobody really says anything. It DID weird me out a little the first time I went up against a guy that was probably 60+ years old but when you realize as long as they know how to play and the game operates normally, game on.
It's completly normal for Mtg to play with all ages and i reall like that. I once played a multiplayer game with a dude and his 12 year old son and it was not awkward in the slightest and everyone was chill.
I thank god for the older players. When Yugioh first came out I was 10 and it was huge on the playground but tournaments didn’t exist in my small town until older players took the initiative to organise them and advertise in the paper. All the tournaments were run by a group of mid-20s men who went to the local college and without them, Yugioh would have died off in my town so I’m grateful to adult players for giving me a lot of great memories
Look how nervous he looks 😢 remembering what it was like in that moment he felt he could no longer enjoy a hobby he grew up playing. I’m right there with ya, after graduating high school me and the boys grew apart and I had no one to play with. No locals in my area so I feel the sentiment 😅
That’s what I thought Yu-Gi-Oh tournaments such as regionals or locals would look like until I saw that I played with people my age and realized kids can’t afford this expensive Yugioh card games unlike back in the days.
Lowkey, fuck it. Might as well get on. Try to smash her after you smash her child at dueling. Tell the bitch you'll teach him private lessons for the pussy.
We had in our locals,2-3 men around 45-50 yrs old playing Yugioh. I stopped playing because our locals closed and the next place is like 3 hours drive away
Saying "YuGiOh is a children card game" is like saying anime are kids cartoon while your kid is watching Attack On Titan. The "children" who used to play YuGiOh years ago are now adults. There's basically no kids on YGO now, they're as rare as 1 sunny day in London or a clear sky in Pechino
Sounds like a new locals to me lol if the scene dies or becomes toxic, I just go somewhere else. I couldn’t care less what people think of me when they hear that I play competitively lol
You were overthinking the situation. Just hurry up and finish the duel with her son, send the fool to the shadow realm, then toss his pathetic cards at his mom and say you will be next if you keep yappin....
chess is more expected as an intellectual sport. But yeah its sad. Bc chess and yugioh are kind similar in finding different lines to outplay your opponent. But people think one is superior than the other for some reason.
I mean I dont even have a locals anymore. We use to, and it was fun. Several kids showed up along with all the adults who played and we actually built relationships with their parents as well as their kids. I have 2 of them on facebook and theyre both in college now. So proud of them
Look i have a passion to play this game its been 40 years and its amazing. Its all ways evolving. Your kid wants to play. And we all love to play this game win or lose
It wouldn't matter what you're doing people like that mother just wanna feel better than someone else especially sitting somewhere for their kid they probably dont wanna do and gotta make someone else miserable as she is if shed get into what her kid was into a lil itd probably be good for his development
At least it was an adult saying that…. In my case it was the 12 yo who said that after he just trashed me. My comeback to the game lasted literally only one week. 😅
I dont understand why people think adults and children cannot have fun playing the same games. Are you supposed to just become depressed and alcoholic once you hit 18 years old?
that’s the cool thing about yugioh, you could always play casually 😮 i was a pendulum main much to everyones dismay back then, but unlearning pendulums has been a little difficult
I quit tcg earlier on. Was about when more powerful cards came into play. Made a lot of friends and made some money selling cards but decided to quit when i was still a teen. Now as an adult, im loving master duel. Took me a a little while to get used to all the insane new tech 😅
I quit years ago. Right around when Synchro got brought in. My local scene was ruled by people with more money than sense. Didnt have a few hundred to drop on the new sets every other month? Dont bother turning up. Then there was this one incident where I and someone else were fighting tooth and nail for that 8th place. I won, got a Dark Magician of Chaos (at the time an extremely good card) and my opponent wouldnt speak to me for months. I knew it was time to give up. It just wasnt fun anymore.
1 it is a child’s card game that I never grew out of. 2 the card shop by me does kids night tournaments where the older player can come in and mentor one of the kids through the tournament with the supervision of parents
Yeah I had this same exact problem, but the difference between me and this story, I called the cops and pressed charges against my wild karen encounter for harassing me at my locals. Moral of the story, if you are going to accuse anyone of being a pedo and harass them, expect to be placed under arrest and sued.
Seriously here's how i see it. The problem is not the mother. (I'm not defending her in the least) I'm trying to really put myself in his situation, and that just triggerred the realisation that I don't wanna play 10 yo kids when i'm a player of that caliber. That's why he's depressed. Yeah! Why do is spend my saturdays doing this? I don't wanna play kids, i wanna duel with someone my age, that has the same understanding of the game and all that goes with it that i do, but sadly that gaming scene doesn't exist, so you grab what you can, and expose yourself to sht like this. The guy's basically a Dark Magician without his Blue eyes white Dragon.
That’s when you just respond back with at least I’m being more of a parent right now playing with your kid. Instead of you just standing there doing the same thing I am except your not playing. Then when you get home your going to have the girls over and drink wine and just talk about high school and other past memories because people just love to live in the past. Your welcome for helping your kid with his critical thinking now pay me for showing your kid a valuable skill
oof I can feel that cuz I was that peanut buttered kid (not really, but I sure didn't use sleeves, and couldn't deck build) I remember being at a college with my mom, and seeing people play Yu-Gi-Oh now I think back on it and think to myself, I really made them uncomfortable a prepubescent kid saying cool, and freaking out that one dude had five headed dragon
