Doug reads during his off-camera hand testing and MBT certainly reads copiously during TMT but obviously they don't hand test every older card in the game and does anyone honestly want to watch any Yugituber using Endymion for the first time having to spend 15 minutes understanding the card text on stream?
FOR ANYONE WONDERING the card is Dark Alligator and it has 3 effects 1: You can tribute summon him by tributing 1 reptile instead of 2 monsters 2: When hes tribute summoned you can summon 2000/2000 tokens up to the number of reptiles tributed 3: When hes destroyed by battle or card effect you can add 1 reptile monster except another copy of itself LONG LIVE 🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊
wonder if they saw that the cyberse wizard could've won the game due to its piercing damage. when doug changed the 200 def monster into defense position I thought he had it.
For anyone curious, Doug’s main cards he didn’t know were Dark Alligator, a reptile support card that searches a reptile on destruction, and Performapal Miss Director, an odd-eyes support card that makes them not destroyed by battle.
@@ebox147 on Dark Alligator, if it’s tribute summoned using a reptile monster, you summon Alligator tokens equal to the number tributed and they have 2000atk
@@ebox147 dark alligator can be summoned for 1 tribute of a reptile, and creates a 2000 atk token for each reptile tributed for its summon edit: should really refresh the page before responding to a comment to see if it was already covered
Really enjoy the concept for this! I think if you want a more 'anime' like duel experience though, the decks should be built first, and THEN you switch languages, so you only don't know what your opponents cards do. Both ways of doing it would be fun to watch though!
That’s a good idea. Knowing what your cards do may make the deck building portion of the video better. As funny as this video was, not knowing what your own cards do may get old fast.
A good middle ground could be the pack openings are in English and then gets moved to Japanese by deck building. That way we can still get some understanding of what the cards do, but its very ripe for misremembering the exact details of the card during deck building and play.
This would be absolutely hysterical as a series. I'm 100% on board for this in combination with the master roulette format. That would make games that are not only funny as hell BUT it would also test the players and their knowledge of their archetype in the case they get paired with a pack they know anything about.
Bonus points if they have to roll for packs in japanese, hear the name spoken out loud in a text-to-speech program, and only find out what it actually is after they choose to keep it or not.
You should include some footage of looking over the cards in English afterwards. Alternatively: Have an extra duel at the end where you both set your accounts back to English, but are required to still use the same deck.
This vid definitely needed an ending section where we get to see what the cards do, i was CONVINCED that the crocodile guy makes tokens but then he just didn't and now i don't know 😭
Agreed that an ending reading section would've been great. For the crocodile guy specifically, other comments have mentioned that it makes tokens up to the number of reptiles tributed for its summon
@@delta3244 yeah, it's just a tribute summon guy who CAN tribute 1 reptile instead of 2 for its summon, and makes tokens for each reptile sac'd. The fact that the card is brand new in tcg (2022, 2020 ocg) should tell you how much they love reptiles.
Honestly, I would KILL to watch this continue as a Master Roulette spin-off with you and Joseph using the same pack picking rules and giving you each 1 minute in english during deckbuilding to try to make the decks functional. It'd be a blast.
this is genius. they should try adding this as one of the options for "roulette of many things" because why not do something similar to the "Deck of Many Things" for the roulette series too?
[24:53] This joke is underappreciated. The delayed "get it?" really sells the bit. Meanwhile [1:03:13] is one of the best improv monologues Doug has done in a while.
I was so invested in this 59:35 scene because Doug literally had game here and if you know anything about Cyberse Wizard. It has like the weirdest push in Yugioh because it’s like a good card from 2004 that was released like 10 years late.
The card with all of the effects that you couldn't figure out was Performapal Miss Director, who's 3 effects are all field based and either require also having an Odd-Eyes monster on field or a level 1 in the grave to immediately go into a level 7 synchro.
“I like this one’s artwork more; I think I’ll go with this one.” is probably my favorite line from this. ROFL Also, Dzeeff reads numbers and MBT calls it cheating. XD
every time i see japanese cards i get reminded how much superior their cards are. bulllet points? numbers that indicate a new effects begins? where is that for us why do we only get random block of text go
Having only played the game in Japanese (I got into it after a blind readthrough of the original manga after moving to Japan a few years back), I have been consistently baffled every time I look at English cards. I can't believe they take an already text-heavy game and make things even harder to parse.
This was soo amazing. The second duel towards the end and especially the final blow with three headed crocodile monstrosity felt like it belongs in the anime. The crocodile thing is def Doug's new ace monster😂😂
@@BramLastname not saying its bad, but this was the funniest shit ever using a card u have never seen in life with such a ridiculous art work and 5 billion effects u had no clue about😂😂😂
@@SuperPatinator I play Duel Masters Plays, A japanese Magic the Gathering spin-off that was named a bit unfortunately, Every time I open up the app I have that experience.
It would be great if next time we could see the card names and texts after the match. The players reading the cards for the first time and reacting to them (and realizing what they could have done in the duels) would be hysterical.
IM CRYING XD This HAS to be a response to the recent master roulette episodes. This has been so much of a ride. I might have to go and watch master saga now
59:40 This whole thing was great, but I looked up cyberse wizard just in time to see that it gave cyberse(including itself) piercing when it flipped that monster to defence, so Doug wiffed a 50-50 shot at game by attacking randomly with the wrong monster. Edit: If you could post some way for us to figure out what some of these cards are as well after the game. Even just a post-game english deck screenshot Also the killing blow was dark alligator, which is not a Barbaros, it summons lvl 1 2000 attack tokens for each reptile tributes for it's summon.
Although it makes it logistically more difficult to film, this could be done like the Master Challenge where Dzeeff spectates two other competitors. In this case, he could keep his game in English so that we would know what the cards do moment to moment, but the players don't.
This is the funniest series idea so far, please continue these. You guys laughing and gambling on random effects is hilarious. The hootcake dino loop was godlike . I wouldn't mind if you scrapped the other series just to focus on this
This was so funny; I loved it! I know it's already an hour-long video, but I would have liked to see you both look at you decks in English in the post-game. 😂 As a pretty new player, I didn't know the vast majority of the cards, even some of the ones you two actually recognized. I think it would be great to see the post-game "Ohhh so that's what that does!" Also, might I suggest a rematch using the EXACT same decks, no changes, but this time in English? I wanna see how that changes things!
I'm the shout-out, I knew this idea was going to turn out funny. The Performapal Miss Director was cracking me up since I've never seen that card before either. Seeing MBT being confused over what his own cards do is something else.
it might be funny to do a master roulette style series with this but the language switch inly happens after deck building if possible so it’s like an anime duel where cards can’t be read during the duel but they are allowed to plan a strategy if they can remember how to make it work
Knowing most of these cards was like, beyond hilarious. I can also read Japanese, though, so I had to pause the video and learn what the batteryman art trap did in real time. The sheer tension of waiting for you guys to learn what was reallly funny
This is probably one of my new favorite ideas for yugioh content. This was genius. So funny and really interesting because theres a lot of cards you can get that nobody has ever read
If Dzeeff had attacked the monster he changed to defense with Cyberse Wizard he would’ve won with the jump scare piercing effect that apparently neither of them knew about 😆
This is probably the funniest yugioh duel i have ever seen, doug summoning that red crocodille with a million text for it to do nothing was priceless 😂😂😂
This was awesome watching it live! Maybe for next video you could have someone else make the decks so you both have "negative" effects on monsters, Imagine activating a card like heavy storm without knowing what it does.
I sort of want the opposite. For someone to make a constructed deck of archetypes they have no knowledge of. So that they can trigger effects and know they'll have targets etc., but not know if they're special summoning the target or pitching it from hand to grave etc. And even if they've done it before so know it's going to grave, then they don't know which ones have good graveyard effects for example
The trap that MBT didn't know what it did is Terrors of the Underroot. Basically it says choose up to 5 cards from your opponent's graveyard and banish them, and choose the same number of the opponent's banished cards and return them to the graveyard. It's a pretty bad card.
idk why that made me laugh so hard but the im using the cards artwork to figure out what these cards do made me laugh so hard xD that was fantastic the whole thing im just disappointed that you guys didnt add the part after seeing what that one card did cause damn was invested lol
He didn't add in the postgame segment where he actually looked at the cards' English text so some highlights: • That bear Dzeeff sent to the GY with Foolish Burial is "Armored White Bear" and it DOES have a GY effect...when it's destroyed on the field first. Summons a Beast from deck too, that actually might've come up as an alternate entrance into the Hootcake loop. • "This is not a real card" with 0/2000 that sat in his hand for most of the first two games is "Performapal Miss Director". The first two effects are Odd-Eyes support but the third one revives a L1 monster and synchros with it into a L7, which was technically available to resolve with Cherries/Mosquito if the cards lined up for it. • The fat alligator that cleaned up Game 3 is "Dark Alligator", and just makes tokens depending on how many Reptiles you tributed to summon it. Adds a Reptile from Deck to hand if it's destroyed, though, which I think only had one other target that was in his hand anyway. • That card with the skulls that sat uselessly in MBT's backrow is "Terrors of the Underroot" and it literally just swaps 5 cards each between your opponent's GY and banished cards.
I realy enjoyed this experience. Was hoping someone would try something like this. Please do another one. A small suggestion for it would be having the participant's reactions to what some cards they played actually do. Lastly, I can't believe how much this sort of challenge makes you appreciate one's ability to read the card text!
Really enjoyed this, hope to see more of it, It would also be really cool to see you guys playing constructed, (With decks either of you aren't familiar with, dunno how'd you decide that, a wheel maybe?) or with Sealed packs, in different languages I think. It goes without saying that Dzeef's pulls were insane, its a massive shame that he didn't recognize some of the cards, imo, Ra'ten the heavenly general is just, one of the strongest generic Links in sealed, should definitely give it a look on the off-chance you ever pull it again. MBT not realizing he could've summoned his Gaia the Magical Knight is tragic. It would've been 'so' unlikely that he'd pull it off, but It would've also been really funny. (Assuming you guys still go by the wheel rule where you just kinda 'allow' eachother to use Polymerization)
Performapal Miss Director While you control an "Odd-Eyes" monster, your opponent's monsters cannot target this card for attacks. While this card is in face-up Defense Position, your "Odd-Eyes" monsters cannot be destroyed by battle, also you take no battle damage from that battle. You can target 1 Level 1 monster in your GY; Special Summon it, but negate its effects, then, immediately after this effect resolves, Synchro Summon 1 monster using only this card and the Summoned monster. You can only use this effect of "Performapal Miss Director" once per turn.
this really is like early anime yugioh a bunch of vanillas that smash into each other and sometimes have semi-secret effects that may or may not come up if the stars align
22:11 Antihuman Intelligence ME-PSY-YA It's the only cyberse pendulum card. It has a pendulum effect to banish cards sent to the graveyard, except monsters. It will send monsters to the graveyard during the end phase if they were summoned while it's on the field as a monster. It has an effect in-hand to special summon itself that you can use to clear one of your pendulum scales non-destructively.
I'm a huge Yu-Gi-Oh nerd, I used to read every single cards effect just so I could be better at deck building. I feel like this challenge would be so easy for me.
