I really wanna support this but I don't see the option for the set you guys got with the starters, case and mat and booster box. Was that something special just for you guys?

[@BramLastname]

@@heinokunzelmann8967 I mean WotC made a game that wholesale copied most of the core mechanics of MtG, Called it Duel Masters and made it Anime AF, And in Japan it's been serious competition for Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon for years now, Despite the fact that MtG flopped in Japan. And while people outside of Japan don't tend to know, Duel Masters inspired a lot of modern TCGs, Most notably Weiss-Swartz and Digimon TCG.

[@robinellermeier3795]

"Let me show you a little trick I learned from Infernity players." Nothing MBT has ever said was more real than that statement.

[@598019001]

Legit this looks really cool. its like a mix of magic and yugioh with a mixture of pokemon and greek myth for the art. I am in fucking love with that. Please make more content for this MBT, This was really cool!

[@wertsTCG]

It really feels a bit more like ygo and pokemon but it's life resource makes decision making really interesting

[@Hurricane1990]

Its basically yugioh but your life points are your mana

[@wertsTCG]

@@Hurricane1990 Thats fair to say too, though becuase spirits stick on board and not haveing correct elements on an elestral matters it feels like poke energy

[@Jidayun]

Definitely looks like something to make taking a break from this format a bit less boring.

[@Zackeezy]

I think long after I've stopped playing yugioh and don't have time to watch youtube anymore, I will still watch every upload MBT makes.

[@b2air1921]

I quite like the enchantment system in this game. It's like energy in pokemon or lands in MTG but they don't clutter your hand/deck but it's not too exploitable by the equivalent of a yugioh combo deck because the number of spirits is equal to your life total

[@turobot8803]

Best way to prepare for deck building is to give yourself an edge, like this knife I have. Killed me.

[@cornblaque2310]

I would definitely like to see a change to the mana/resource system. It being tied directly to your life count seems counterintuitive especially towards the end of the game. You can’t preserve your life if you need to play cards to preserve your life. Maybe add a lifesteal mechanic? Both players once per turn can give lifesteal to an elsestral?

[@jean-philippegrignom6479]

Your camera quality is a lot better in this one !

[@gemodemplay415]

Since Joseph is willing to give Elestrals a chance (sponsored, obviously, but still) maybe there's a chance of a Grotto Beasts video when it launches?

[@josht8156]

This was great! I'm so curious what would happen if you guys did something like magic now. Hope you guys had fun!

[@LazurBeemz]

using life points as mana, but having to equip them like energy cards, is interesting. I'm just not sure if it's fun? Cuz MBT spent like 6 spirits to get his big bug on the field, then lost it to an Exiled Force. It seems like it's easy to just wall up and let your opponent kill themselves, then finish them off with cheap removal.

[@BramLastname]

Yeah, it feels like they didn't have a solid idea as to what function each element of the game would perform. As a result it ends up making some of the same mistakes early 2000's TCGs made.

[@gwenyurick9663]

the game has some neat ideas but it seems insistent on not learning from things that caused past games to fail or that current running games have changed rules wise. games have tried the "your life is also your resource" thing and it tended to pretty universally suck from a gameplay perspective. and like theres a reason current yugioh field spells dont blow up your opponents...

[@BramLastname]

@@gwenyurick9663 to be fair in Pokémon the field spells do blow up the opponents, But they're usually designed either like Chicken Game, beneficial to both, or like Catalyst Field or Umi, immediately gives you value and does nothing on your opponent's turn. The main problem is that they did not learn, Weiss-Swartz is the perfect example of learning from the past, They took failed games like Bakugan TCG and addressed the complaints in their own system.

[@MegaBichiX]

can you imagine the sponsors holding a gun against their heads and telling them to react to the holo again. YOU ARE NOT FUNNY ENOUGH DO IT AGAIN

[@jasonlu4514]

14:58 The way he takes the card and look at the camera afterward...... was MBT Dwight from Office all along?

[@dexxus8078]

Kinda wish there were more unique Spirit cards. I understand this is the first set, but having so many duplicates of a particular card gets weird when it's supposed to be a particular *creature* as opposed to a location or resource.

[@dexxus8078]

Plus most MtG sets have at least 3 art variants on their Basic Lands per set so that they don't all end up looking identical. This is less of an issue considering the Spirit Deck is auxilliary and not direct, but still *an* issue.

[@bencrandall-malcolm8303]

It looks like the packs might not be getting randomized correctly There were multiple packs that contained like the same 3 spells in the same order as another pack

[@BramLastname]

That wouldn't be unheard of, Was kinda surprised there was not more immediately obvious errors with the randomisation, But based on your observation they're likely randomised on the sheets and only on the sheets. Which is fine, but unprofessional. That being said all the holos being on the same side is unacceptable by today's standards, Every corner should have roughly the same odds.

[@dylanserra6501]

This looks incredibly fun but the only thing turning me away from it is that no one I know currently plays it and none of the locals around me supports it. If it get supported by local card shops or something I'd love to play this.
