Yugi Vs Kaiba But It's Modern Yu-Gi-Oh Ft. Jeff Leonard 

It's even more epic it actually happened.

obvious rickroll is obvious

@@ArminHaba LMAO that'd be hilarious

wait this is real??? I thought it was just a meme

Indianapolis??? are you guys Brazilians ??

People forgetting about Rituals part 163810266492

Jeff Leonard is the final boss

Well, almost every summon. No tribute and no ritual summon. But its nice anyway

No Protag's Deck was built around Tributing or Ritual Monsters lol

​​@@thegamebusters5413literally yugis deck bud

Good sportsmanship is no joke

Kaiba and Yugi if they're usual local tourney players

​@@BamBam_TYMthis is actually even funnier lol

I mean just because you are trying to destroy your opponent in glorious combat doesn’t mean you ignore when they make an error and don’t help them.

"Judge! My opponent has failed to maintain the game state!"

Recreation? Wait, this actually happened in a real tournament?

@@rick028 Jeff Leonard won an actual tournament with that mess of a deck.

@@zygimantassilobritas6034 no he dropped out after round 7, but he won the 4th round Feature Match (which is streamed online and played on a stage at the venue for the crowd). He was undefeated until the 5th round. This video was based on that match. Kaiba stopping Yugi's combo with Kelbek actually happened, and Jeff's opponent also reminded him to add back the equip spell off of Renaud's effect. The protags and Joey chanting "ONE MORE PIECE, ONE MORE PIECE!" actually happened at the venue, where there was a huge crowd gathered around to watch Exodia being played at a high-level tournament. They started the chant in game 3, after Jeff resolved Blue Dragon Summoner's effect the 3rd time, adding him the third limb of Exodia. Since Jeff had earlier added the head, he had 4 pieces of Exodia in his hand, so the crowd was cheering him on to finish his combo.

Firmly in the latter camp. I get to appreciate the joke in the duel, the old Yugi vs Kaiba, the Mokuba jokes. All great. But my head was like "what in absolute absurd children's card game hell is all this shit Yugi's pulling? Is he cheating again?". But no, I don't think he was.

@@Walksfar No, for once this all above board.

It being a reference to the actual game this is based off of is so wild haha

That and the checking of your backrow for the millionth time even though you JUST looked at it

Yami yugi ass line? god you nerd virgins are tragic

That was a bar. Yugi has lines for days. My favorite; "DAAARK MAGICIAN, show him some REAL MAGIC.... DARK MAGIC ATTACK!!!" sounded like he was gonna delete arkana outright 😂

lol explorers do travel alone all the time

@@phillipeapp Nah, usually they have a full crew that never gets any credit.

"The instantaneous Instant Fusion" gets me every time.

Normal turns are shorter now and ironically enough only lower tier or janky decks last long. Even this waifu meta maid deck actually just summon and set multiple cards facedown.

​@@galaxyvulture6649Ah yes, Mommy Milkers Lady Labyrinth. We are cultured here. (We don't talk about Traptrix, FBI can keep track of those players)

@@KryselITG You just convinced me to play Traptrix.

​@@KryselITGCan we please grow up from that joke? It's starting to become as stale as pot of greed not to mention the joke itself is pretty unfunny...... just like pot of greed.

@@KryselITG A Traptrix and Skystrike player show up to a YCS, who gets banned first?

I only ever read the first few books of Yu-Gi-Oh. Who _is_ Mokuba?

​@@dreamwalkingKaiba's little brother

@@seansquiers6506 Oh yeah... He showed up that one time. Got trapped in a pokéball or something.

@@dreamwalking Exactly

What is Mokuba?

That made me laugh so hard. 😂 Not knowing both of these cards, I didn't expect it to be instant destroyed.

"If he kills me im dead" -DistantCoder 2023

The part that finally made me spit my coffee. This man owes me a keyboard.

Funny because the two Isoldes were rivals for Tristan's affections.

there are plenty of lesbian monsters in Yu-Gi-Oh. there's exosisters, Labrynth... and I guess that's all

Sky strikers

Sky strikers

Kaiba is a stickler for maintaining the game state.

​@@vxicepickxv correct

He wants to beat Yugi at his best, even if it costs him the game

I dont think so, he implemented the tribute rules to his tournament even though he ran 3 blue eyes, and obelisk😂, he does care about rules and balance somewhat.

It happened in the actual match, so I’m glad they included it here

I like how the new Flame Swordsmen support along with the Infernoble and all the other bullshit that exist is why they banned those bitches because of Mikanko to.

the card was already unhealthy, and in need of a ban.

​@@jameshoppe1417 yeah but it's 3 yrs later 😅 Electrumite got it quick, Halq..well we just don't talk about that

@@PendBestDeck151 Probably a lack of being seen comparatively. From what I know Isolde kinda vanished from use except in fringe decks, and while a seriously unhealthy card konami let it slide, like they had with M X-Saber Invoker for a while. Both are cards people knew were unhealthy but fell off for a time until something made konami take notice again.

Don’t forget, two more protagonists her willed into existence

Yusei has the only braincell here

@@mithmoonwalker One more Piece? One....piece... *Can we get much higher?*

I was half expecting Luffy to show up

One crowd one braincell the match this game came from had a whole crowd chanting it.

That's we he's the goat

Building dreams one brick at a time...

enough bricks in his deck to build a structure, a house of cards if you will

When you can will cards into your hand there are no bricks

True one brick card by itself is bad but when played with enough bricks they allow me to build a perfect unbeatable wall to end this duel.

It won world 2016 at least

​@@r3zafulI mean when you ban all 5 decks surrounding it

Why did he have two lightning storms in his deck? One is enough.

@@Zivety so he could draw it.

@technotenor0487 - That's what Konami does as its to get you play the new cards rather than the same thing over and over.

The closest he got to dark magician is the xyz that's a dark... magician

@@galaxyvulture6649 I love it. He came to win 😂

@galaxyvulture6649 Same ATK points too. Still it's pretty neat to see Dark Spellcaster that share similar looks or just have the same stats as DM.

​@@thedarkspirit5084Dark Magician is 25/21. Timestar is 24/12.

@@RunicSigils 🤫🤫🤫

Oh Mbt

-not quite, you should've been cast as kaiba for that-

MBT, THANK YOU FOR RAIDING SLOWSER!

Well hi MBT.

What would be the equivalent of going back in time and taking a fully functional RX-78-2?

​@rickytorres4213 Full power IshTear to LoB format

A .50 cal would be next to useless since no one had any armor and tanks dont exist then

No, it's actually like inventing pocket-sized fusion reactors just so that you can use all of that power to throw a rock at lethal speed.

@@NeostormXLMAX wrong

And it was a deck built by a man old enough to be Yugi’s grandfather.

It would actually be a really interesting narrative parallel to the Millennium Puzzle which was said to be a puzzle with so many complex steps and pieces that no average person could solve it. Also makes a great "show-don't-tell" of Grandpa's true nature from when he wasn't a hapless old man since it's his deck. Plus the cherry on top of the obvious parallel between solving the puzzle summoning the Pharaoh and solving the deck summoning Exodia.

@@Stopaskingwhyandjustreadit I’m imagining Yugi having this sudden relevation “wait a minute… my grandpa is toxic” lol

Definitely agree. This video deserves more views.

I want someone to abridge the entire series just like this

"normal DM characters in modern yugioh cliche" wdym? that's exactly what the video is, is it not?

LOL that was my favourite part too

@@fortnitesexman Normally I see these sorts of videos just port the characters from DM into modern yugioh and have them get stomped and be really confused or annoyed about the state of the game. Here it feels like they've kept playing the game until now and they're confused because Yugi's deck looks like a fever dream even by modern yugioh standards.

​@@fortnitesexmanUsually, "I don't know how new cards work" and "why dark magician not good" are their only jokes

@@inquisitormalleus6435 ah, gotcha, thanks for actually explaining it btw yugi would absolutely fucking obliterate modern meta after his first duel because of stuff like his sixth sense, allowing him to just..know what face down you have without looking at it

Only a modern grandpa will make a meme deck. XD

i cant believe nobody is talking about "whos mokuba" in the comment section. that had me rolling.

And Kaiba helping Yugi with his GY effect right before that.

I mostly play Magic but seeing Kabia use an interaction piece and stoping Yugi from going off is just card game gold. The mumbling and checking the cards got me as you are right the Voice Actor for Yugi nailed that mumbling perfectly. That bit got my dying in laughter

Definitely is the most accurate portayal of a tcg player lol

What's funny is that you do get a little bit of that in the anime, but it's reserved entirely for monologues about how screwed they are, and debatably to allow for other characters to explain what's going on. Singing a grounded on dramatic patrol is funny.

also "the unsummable flame swordsman" cracked me up the most

Yugi Boomers will legit take every opportunity to whine about something they just don’t understand.

Man has been on his turn for 10 minutes straight and still hasn't stopped lol

@@FrostReaveyou’re right. New yugioh is scary. It made me go back to Magic

@@GrayRain0 Yugioh has needed an actual system to teach new players in stages don’t get me wrong. But the game itself isn’t as broken as Yugi Boomers make it out to be

Yeah I'm a Yugiboomer and I tried master duel, now I'd rather learn magic the gathering!😂 Yu-Gi-Oh is broken and I overstand exactly why... There are way too many cards printed just to be stronger than the ones that were printed last set. Magic solved this by having different rule sets. (Standard, commander, draft, starter deck) whereas ygo hasn't started a single new format in 20 years (I guess duel links and master duel but they are digital only). Also what makes yugioh really broken is lack of resources. You can draw and summon your whole deck turn 1 and then they ban ftks and otks... It's obvious Konami has no true interest in managing a trading card game, and that's what yugiboomers are the most frustrated with.

Because the classic episodes were made before the game officially existed and had no rules. We had to watch as Yugi's monsters attacked a Moon field spell in order for his opponent's water monsters to suffocate on the now dried-out landscape to win a duel. That's the game *I* want to play.

It gets EVEN better because that ACTUALLY HAPPENED. The entire duel is the YCS Indianapolis round 3 feature match between Jeff Leonard and Justin Singh with Yugi taking the role of Jeff and Kaiba as Justin. In that Duel, Jeff actually did forget to add the Infernoble Knight monster and Justin reminded him.

No, no, it was pretty obvious. Everyone who knows of that match and watched this video realised.

@@DrDrao so why did no one comment abt it?

@@theblan1k0ne Because it was so obvious. Nobody's commented that it's a RU-vid video either. Does that mean nobody realised what platform we're on? It's not a subtle Easter egg. The entire video, from the Jeff cameo, to the characters chanting "One more piece" to the fact that the combo itself is extremely recognizable, is a fairly obvious nod to the feature match.

@@DrDrao I mean, it doesn’t hurt to point out things you know? Be happy about the small things? You’re making a mountain out of a molehill.

@@theblan1k0ne Hey, I realized I may have come off as abrasive or rude. I didn't mean to. Sorry.

You get it now

Tearlaments wouldn’t have saved him. This is YCS Indianapolis, where Tearlaments famously lost to an Exodia deck.

@@Endershock1678 this is YCS Indianapolis Japan.

@@technotenor0487 Still YCS Indianapolis. You never bring Tears to Indianapolis or you lose to this exact sequence of events… I mean I guess he lost to those exact chain of events anyways, but it would have been way more of a legendary defeat with Tearlaments than Blue Eyes.

@@Endershock1678 fair. As someone who played the tear mirror with the tear player on that stream, he played his next event with purpose So maybe that loss was the kick he needed.

Bro you killed it! The Voice is so perfect!

Oh, thank goodness, it's a human voice and not ai.

LMAO I didn't even notice this. I think my brain was just starting to filter out the extra adjectives.

Yeah, that's pretty much Yu-gi-oh, whoever finds more loop holes, wins. Until that shit gets banned, of course.

It's called the "Joey Face"

No comments on Yuya playing along with the hype?

It would have caught alot more people off guard, if it weren't for your spoiler filled comment 😅 Edit; all over yt, people really oughta stop doing that.

@@attackonyugioh92his name is in the title of the video

@@attackonyugioh92no it wouldn’t have. It’s LITERALLY in the title lol

Who?

​@@irift3 the greatest Yu-Gi-Oh player of all time

Yugi: Joey, what is Exodia's attribute? Joey: DARK? Yugi: Right, and what's it's type? Joey: Spellcaster... Yugi: Indeed, and what's another term for a spellcaster? Joey: ...Yug I don't think it works like that.

You probably foreshadow new Blue-Eyes and Dark Magician support. Dark Magician tapping into Pendulum and Blue-Eyes tapping into Links.

Somewhere down the future anyway :)

Honestly this is so real

@@fruitybluieblue098 I like your thought on this. Blue eyes inclines to link summon is the possible route cause obviously Kaiba will associated with technology,as link summoning depicted like a circuit board

@@sofarsogood8680 Give Blue eyes a Link 1 that needs a level 1 light tuner to summon that can special summon a blue-eyes from deck would be pretty decent support.

THAT'S ACTUALLY JUST JEFF LEONARD

That was the joke, absolutely wild how you guys managed to get him for this lol :D

Wait!!! You actually get Jeff L. To voice himself??? Damn!!! That's the biggest flex I've seen this week

@@ZXZZ66_ What's funniest about all of this is that I have no idea who Jeff Leonard is. I assume he's a real life professional Yu-Gi-Oh player?

@@Jotari yeah, he's a real YGO professional that won YGO world championship using Exodia

It's from hanging around Aki.

It's amusing you label anyone saying facts as a "yugiboomer" when in reality watching your opponent play solitaire for 10 minutes is boring

New YGO is bad.

​@@FantomMisfit That is exactly what a Yugiboomer would say. Yugiboomers are so out of touch of the meta that they dont know that current meta aren't build a boards anymore.

​@@user-yq3bv9rf9b yugiboomers having way too much fun playing edison to care

@@user-yq3bv9rf9b bro, i play on dueling nexus and 70% of my opponents do 10 minutes solitaire that end with an omninegate board exactly where nobody do solitaire anymore? please tell me because i want to have fun while playing

no, those two just appeared during the timeskip

Probably because she likes Ishizu or something? I'd ship them tho. Even tho the cannonical ship is Kaiba x Blue Eyes

@@moh.syafrianabie8899 clearly Kaiba endorses the thrupple. All good things come in three's after all.

Idk maybe he wanted to get the stones in grave. Either that or he's using a TSX1 list or something and is using a Punk engine that never came to him.

Because this was (maybe) the prequel of that Kaiba Tearlament duel.

This makes me incredibly happy holy shit

“Which will destroy it!”

@@reshiexe286

Probably learned it from Akiza

He can read the heart of his opponents
