Yu-Gi-Oh! 3x Beware of TRAPTRIX vs DARK WORLD Structure Decks! 

*Hey all! Hope you guys enjoyed this new video. Both these Structure Decks are really nice, it was my first time playing Traptrix ever and I had a blast. You really can't go wrong picking up 3 of either one.* 💯

Activating a trap in the GY is not the same as activating it on the field, so even if "Trap Trick" is activated in the same turn, Traps in the graveyard are still able to be activated

Hey guys, piece of constructive criticism. When you use this setup ensure that the player on the blue side of the mat has the blue screen overlay and the player on the red side of the mat has the red overlay. It will make the screen much more readable.

great to see how stuff like evenly matched, duster, raigeki and ash etc are being printed in the new structure decks, hope this continues for the sake of my wallet

Pauls trap in grave was a legal move as its the effect of a trap. Activating a trap card is the action of flipping it face up

I remember getting the zombie and dragon decks in 2004 with my brother, and those are some of my fondest memories.

I had a neat idea for a duel for you all! How about a Random Card challenge? Basically, you randomly generate a single card (Preferably a Monster) and you have to build a deck based off that card. Even if it's an ancient Normal Monster with no fusions or archetype, you can still build the deck surrounding the monster type or attribute, or the theme/artwork of the card. Here's the rules I came up with (though feel free to tweak them to suit your purposes) 1) You must have x3 copies of that card in your deck (Proxies are acceptable if you don't have enough, of course) 2) If there are cards that reference that card by name, (such as a fusion) you must have x3 copies of at minimum one of those cards. (Proxies, again are acceptable.) You must also have the means to actually play those cards (Polymerization and other materials for a fusion summon, for example) 3) You must make reasonable effort to include your random card in your win condition - for example, getting M-Warrior #1 would suck, bad. But you could try, for example, to summon Karbonala Warrior (A fusion monster that requires M-Warrior #1 & 2) and then use it as a material for a monster that requires a fusion monster to summon. Is it good? No! But that's the fun of this idea. You could also reduce the pool of cards to select only cards of a certain tier of play, if you don't want a Twin Long Rods #2 VS Tearlaments Havnis match up, or add a rule where you have to summon your monster before you can win the duel.

Paul forgot some effects. Sera can use each effect once per turn. So when he activates a trap hole, he can special summon a traptrix (in the first game it was dionaea), activate her effect, then activate sera again to set a trap hole. He also forgot to normal summon Pudica, which he could do thanks to his field spell.

I love my dark world deck but traptrix has some cards that are great counters to darkworld.

Guess I’m rooting for the Dark World cards - can’t wait for more of them to be added to Master Duel

I honestly didn't think the new dark world deck would be any good, but it's actually beast!! I like how Alec gives the cards epic introductions

I super appreciate you guys explaning the card effects as you go along!

Alec, you still dont get Ceruli, it seems. The strongest play you can make going first with Darkworld is to discard Ceruli and then discard Siilva by Ceruli's effect. Especially effective if you pull it off twice. Just to remind you: Siilva's second effect is for your opponent to send two cards in their hand back to the deck. Its devastating. Siilva is also searchable off the new Reign-Beaux. Another thing you didnt seem to make use of was the new hand loop. If you have Reign-Beaux and Grapha in grave, then just getting one Darkworld on the field allows you to bounce it back to hand to summon Reign-Beaux and then bounce Reign-Beaux back to hand to summon Grapha. Thats a lot of card advantage. Bottom line is running only one Ceruli and no Siilva just doesnt cut muster.

Man not really knowing anything about the power of Yu-Gi-Oh cards, grave digger trap hole seems really strong

I loved this theme duel! A lot of different interactions and showing off the power of 3x of each!

As a traptrick user in master duel, this structure deck is calling out to me. Love these new cards.

Placebo negate is a great way of describing big graphas discard effect. Nice one Alec!

I was literally asking for this duel yesterday....u guys bring exactly what we want!

9:25 as a dark world player I relate because every time I use dragon overlord people keep on saying “that was your effect that discarded your dark world” and I have to keep on telling them, it isn’t my effect that negates and makes me discard, it makes YOUR effect become I have to discard

I cannot wait for Stricture Deck Tournament. I still wish u guys would upload video dueling using old Structure Decks.

I'm glad Traptrix literally make Trap Hole cards relevant again.

You guys are so fun to watch! Had my firsT audition today, and this took away the nerves!

I was looking for this type of content, but not overly produced, cause it just feels like too much sometimes. This is exactly what i was looking for, thanks for sharing such cool videos guys !

That was a great game! I love how much back and forth there was, considering I was expecting one to steamroll the other.

It’s cool to see you guys play yugioh nobody at my card shop plays yugioh

I love this series, thanks. Helps a lot

Lmao that second duel ending of "... YEA OKAY YOU WIN WE KNOW" i've had that on a few duels and its funny seeing that on ur videos lol

Good duel. Was entertaining a good way to showcase each of the abilities of the Structure Decks. Keep doing them! I like how DW plays, but the Traptrix SD is so full of control and recovery. I like the increasing production quality you and your editor implement into the videos. Showcasing the card being played for a few seconds really helps. There are some OCG RU-vid channels who do this pretty well. Some things I hope you can make changes to are: If using a dark colored playmat, please use light colored sleeves (and vice versa). It was a bit hard to notice set cards on Alec's field. High contrast/visibility is always good, and I know Paul you look up to the overhead camera a lot to check focus and camera views all the time. RU-vid allows End Screens to suggest other videos or display your channel's logo as a button to subscribe. As a viewer, it's super annoying to have those things cover up the last few seconds of your video while you guys are still talking and saying "Pass Turn". I recommend adding 5 seconds to the end of your videos as some sort of "outro" or fade out so your actual video is completely viewable and the End Screens cover up some nice background art or something.

Activating a trap effect does not count towards activating a trap CARD.

I'm still undecided about which cards from this to integrate into my own deck, I bought this Dark World Structure Deck three days ago at Target.

Just so yall know, if you use graphas effect to change an opponent’s effect to you discard a card, youre discarding by dark world card effect and can then chain archives to it, discard another card and draw 2, even on your opponents turn.

Bro I was waiting for this, love you guys so much

Activating a trap card in the grave isn't a thing, you're activating a trap effect in the grave. Therefore you get around trap trick which state you can only activate 1 trap since it doesn't limit trap effect.

I would love to see Traptrix face off against the Crystal Beast Deck or the Sacred Beast Deck! It would really be helpful. Thanks guy!😄

that was a really good duel! as far as rulings go, trap trick does not stop you from activating trap card effects, only trap cards themselves so the holeutea was legal. also of note is that big grapha can only respond to the activation of actual spell/trap cards themselves not their effects so he would not have been able to activate in response to the graveyard effect of holeutea.

I would love to see more game plays of the Traptrixs deck.

Thanks the duel. Really enjoyed watching both decks

I can recognize the Bakugan Battle Brawlers OST at the 3rd duel. The OST is not used much in RU-vid videos, so I appreciate the editors for adding that in.

Music in the background is from the game I played in the hospital when I was a kid, Bakugan Defenders of The Core.. Thank you so much for this ear candy i couldn't believe my ears

Man I did this myself last night it was amazing I’m excited to see how this plays out!

Love how you guys showed the deck list thank you

We love a good back and forth that last duel was fun to watch.

I like these games cause i can see what the decks can do so i can learn the basics, looking foward to the next VS when the next Structure comes out

I appreciate your content it really makes a difference in my day when I’m scrolling with nothing entertaining to watch

Awesome duels, hope to see more of the traptrix boys on the channel.

*sees evenly in a trap heavy deck* YOU BECAME THE MONSTER YOU SWORE TO DESTROY

i think as a budget x3 structure deck, darkworld just doesnt have enough of what it needs to send it. especially compared to the Traptrix structure x3, just has a ton more of options to play against a lot of decks

Really nice match guys, loved it

OMG I Can't even explain how happy i am to see this video. Since the hype for traptrix started, I wanted to see that arquetype duel against dark world! besides those are the dcks me and my friend are running. Keep up the awesome content u guys

Ended up rewatching. Somehow this was a really fun duel

Lots of fun! Two of my favorite archetypes both with shiny new toys

Pretty back and forth between these decks, it was a fun match to watch.🤙

I wanted to add in the mekk knight cards that come in the structure but just couldn’t find space for them

you guys are awesome! great for beginners who want to learn to play correctly, nice speed, good explanations, just great video, keep it up!

That battle music is Darkus Arena from the Bakugan Battle Brawlers video game, from the final battle with Marduk

Brilliant video to showcase both budget decks and play styles as it was a toss up between these 2 decks for me as a noob returning player wasnt sure which deck i was swaying to more dark world for nostalgia or traptrix for meta 👍

Dark World was the first deck I ever built that truly had synergy

Lol paul I be flinching here!..swinging attack wrist so fast and abruptly LOL

"We can count on RU-vid for comments" Literally the only Yu-Gi-Oh channel I sub to, you guys are great lol

Traptrix are agressive af. Idk it seems they may have some rogue deck potential even in meta. Similar to labyrnth.

I just bought Dark Worlds as my first deck ever. This was super helpful in figuring it out. Thx guys!

I love this channel so much

I like the videos guy's! Be awesome to have locals like you around.

This was very fun to watch

Great duels guys both decks were cool.

The structure deck of Traptrix is a great deck. Just got some last weekend and having a blast with this strong deck. Never in my life played Traptrix cards before. Keep up with the good work looking forward for more good duels and structure deck

Heads up, Ping can stuff cards discarded or sent by your opponent's card effects too. Just suck em up as more material and watch as your opponent cries as their effects that require their monster to remain in the same zone to resolve get stuffed.

having to see the traptrix deck is pretty cool! Me and my brother got our first structure decks, dark world and saga of blue eyes, could you make structure deck vid out of these two? that would mean a lot from one of my favourite yugitubers

Paul be really swing that attack at you...almost flinched

Great video, guys! Side note: I MUST know where Alec got his Bakura shirt!

Been itching to build another x3 structure deck, and I've been watching a handful of videos showcasing Traptrix. Finally ordered three of the decks, so I can finally see the deck go up against Ultimate Dino Tyranno and Zombie World. I won my first game at locals with the dino deck; the icing on the cake was, when I got Ultimate Dino Tyranno on the board and swinging, my opponent conceded saying he didn't have an answer for it

Really interesting duel. I never played Traptrix before but I have tinkered with Dark World when it was first released years ago. They seem to have gotten some decent support.

23:44 from what i understand graphan can in fact "negate" the effect as long as its activated and a normal trap. since he can also negate monsters in GY, banish and hand as long as they are activated

back to setting my sound to mono to deal with funky aduio, hah. I'm getting the Traptrix deck tomorrow so this is gonna be fun to watch

traptrix is a lot of fun to play, using it a lot on ygo omega since the support came and its really good

My guy was playing like 4 dark world monsters apparently 😂

This video is so cool because i actually have the two structure decks in this video.

Pinguicula is kinda crazy against Dark World. When you opponent discards Grapha, she can absorb it, and same thing with the Fusion Spell no?

getting back into ygo again and damn i wanna play trap trix after watching this. seems suuuuper fun

Traptrix still spites me to this day. Not because it’s overpowered. But because I still remember how I went second so they got their setups off and I still had the ultimate counter…and the second it was my turn I misplayed so hard that ended up with me losing

I wanna see you guys take it a step further. Duelists of the Roses duels lol

Finally new cards for my traptrix mekk knight deck

I have both decks so its fun to see how they can be played. Really good fight as well.

I'm going to go with the dark world deck and also I'm practicing with them anyway as well but this deck amazing and it might be my favorite deck imo.

How about slifer and obelisk deck vs cryatal beasts and sacred beasts

Wouldn't he have been able to chain the new xyz to the summon of the new grapha since he banished material for it

Bought the Darkworld deck to get back in yugioh and hoooooooooooooooboy, it was eye opening how complex this game has gotten since my youth.

I wasn't expecting such holeable puns this duel.

The music game 3 was hype.

I’d still love to see you guys do a deck master tournament kind of thing. You build your decks and without revealing them to the crowd you choose enough monsters for each player to have one deck master. Then you allow the audience to choose who gets what monster and what their ability will be without knowing what deck anyone is playing. To make all of these abilities fair though they aren’t allowed to inflict effect damage as their ability and their ability is a solid once per turn. This way it forces the player to think quickly because they don’t choose what their deck master is or what it does to suit their decks and the deck is built beforehand so they can’t build around them making it as fair as can be.

My first competitive deck I used back in the day was a dark world deck.

i learned a lot, thenks 😅

Would love to See a Meklord Deck vs Earth machine. Call it the Heavy Metal Battle.

Thanks for the traptrix Deck!🖤

This is my favorite YGO channel now.

It would still be a you have to draw the out or have the out in hand on your first turn if your going second or second turn if your going first assuming you survived the first battle phase in that case but it still be nice to have another card that activates in hand so it a little harder to counter

1:43 yes, but because they need to 'summon' it back, it will be a target for any hole card, making her effect a way to deal with monsters that are already on the board

Good job!

I love the friendly "trash talking" , makes for a more entertaining videos ... keep it up guys , your videos always get better :)

May I ask what app you use to track life points?
